Forum on racism spurs debate
Panelist's behavior many interruptions prompt criticism
By Dan Curry
(USPS 650-640)
Kansan staff writer.
The emptiness of Room 110 in Budig Hall was striking at Saturday's dialogue on racism — the panel spoke to only 20 people, surrounded by 980 empty seats.
The few people that did attend had strong words for panelist Ashra Kwesi, who frequently interrupted other speakers with derisive remarks.
The panel included Lewis Duguid, columnist for the Kansas City Star; Barry Shank, associate professor of American Studies; Jordan Yochim, assistant director for administration at the Natural History Museum and Kwesi, a traveling lecturer on Afrocentrism.
Afro-centrism is the belief that the
roots of Western civilization lie in Africa.
Kwesi replaced Yosef ben-Jochman, professor emeritus at Cornell University, who could not attend the event.
The dialogue's topic, "Religion's Role in Racism," took its shape from a slideshow presentation that Kwesi gave before the dialogue.
Kwesi used slides to show how Christian figures, such as Jesus Christ, historically had been converted from black images into white images.
Kwest said Europeans used white images of Christ to spiritually enslave African people.
African Americans cannot call on a spiritual past if that past is in the image of their enslavers, Kwesti said.
At one point in the dialogue, after Diuguid had said that people would always find things in the Bible to justify their beliefs, Kwei cut him off.
"Let's get down to the nitty gritty and stop being masturbational," Kwesi said.
Kwesi drew criticism from several audience members who objected to his
behavior.
"You are very disrespectful," said Maryemey Graham, professor of English, whom Kwesi also interrupted.
Inst. with Riverside, MA.
After the dialogue, Graham said she objected to the dialogue's form rather than its content.
"I think dialogue that opens up ideas is important," she said. "But dialogue that closes down dialogue is not important."
She said that by allowing Kwesi to first show a slide show and then take a position on the panel, unequal weight was given to his platform of ideas.
Graham also said she thought the dialogue should move past historical discussion of ideology and focus more on what can be done to fix problems of racism.
"I think our job is to tell the story about how these resisted," Graham said.
Duliguid took Graham's lead and spoke of several movements in Kansas City in which practical things were being done to improve the state of

Parking department tries weekend patrols
Experimental policy is reaction to complaints
By Nadia Mustafa
Kansan staff writer
Students who are used to parking in restricted campus spaces on the weekends may have to start walking instead.
The parking department is cracking down. The campus is not usually patrolled on the weekends, but a ticket writer was placing $20 tickets on cars parked in certain areas of campus Saturday.
Restricted parking areas
Donna Hultine, assistant parking director, said the parking department had received complaints from academic departments about cars without the correct permits filling up their lots during lab or clinic hours on the weekends, and from scholarship hall residents about students without Alumni Place permits parking in their lots.
P = 24 hour - restricted parking areas
The Parking Department is cracking down on its restricted areas. This past weekend the parking department began placing $20 tickets on cars parked in certain areas on campus. This was the first weekend to have been patrolled. A representative from the department said that only cars parked in fire lanes, handcapped stalls and other lots or spaces that are restricted seven days a week were ticketed. The department will decide today whether to keep patrolling on the weekends.
She said she also received complaints about lines of cars parked in fire lanes on the weekends.

"We don't usually have someone out on the weekends, but we've had so many complaints," Hultine said. "We thought it would clear things up if we had someone out there."
Hultine said that last weekend was the first weekend someone was patrolling campus lots, and that Parking Director Don Kearns would decide Monday whether to have permanent or occasional weekend patrol.
She said the University of Kansas Public Safety Office answered phone complaints on the weekends, but that the office could only issue tickets if the violation were a life safety issue.
Jessica Sullivan, Wichita freshman, said she should not have received a $20 ticket Saturday for parking in a restricted lot behind Strong Hall. She said the sign for lot 3, which in bold print said a blue permit was required Monday through Friday and in small print said that staff permits were required at all other times, was misleading.
should have received tickets were cars parked in fire lanes, handicapped stalls and lots or spaces restricted seven days a week. She said students should be able to find parking in yellow or red zones on the weekends.
Paul Turvey, Lawrence sophomore, parked Sullivan's car in the Strong Hall lot. He said he did not read the entire sign and only saw that it was reserved for faculty parking during the week.
Turvey said the University should have notified students before ticketing last weekend.
"It was kind of contradictory," Sullivan said. "They shouldn't start ticketing on weekends without telling us because we're used to parking wherever we want on the weekends. It's upsetting."
"It's important to be consistent," he
said. "You need to let people know when you're going to make a change."
Sullivan, an Ellsworth Hall resident, said she was worried that visitors would get ticketed for parking in residence hall lots on the weekends.
Jenny Sweeney, Overland Park freshman, also received a ticket Saturday in the Strong Hall lot. She said that she thought the lot was restricted only during the week, and that students should not be ticketed on the weekends.
"It's frustrating," Sweeney said. "We're here for academic services. If the buses aren't running, we should have a place to park without being ticketed if we want to go to the library."
Katie Donnally, Lawrence senior, said she almost received a ticket Saturday for parking along the curb in front of Ekdahl Dining Complex. She said students park there every weekend, especially during church services at Saint Lawrence Catholic Center on Crescent Road.
"We've been allowed to park there for three and a half years," Donnally said. "It concerns me that the parking department didn't let students know that they'd be ticketing on Saturdays. Twenty dollars is a really expensive ticket. It's like a conspiracy for getting our money."
She said at least two other students were ticketed Saturday in front of Ekdahl Dining Complex.
Hultine said the $20 fine was intended to be a deterrent. She said the parking department received more income from the sale of permits than from tickets because it had to pay ticket writers' salaries.
"The fine has gone up and up because it's not deterred," she said.

The University bus routes won't be as loud as they have been for the past 12 years.
The popular bus driver was at his home Saturday night when he felt sick. Gleason was taken by ambulance to Lawrence Memorial Hospital where he died from an apparent heart attack.
Ron "Rockin' Ron" Gleason, 50, known to students for the loud music he played on his campus routes, died Saturday.
"Ron was a legend. Everyone knew Ron, everyone loved Ron," said Eric Darnell, Lawrence Bus Co. driver. "He was a rockin' guy."

Kansas receiver recovering following shooting

Kansan staff writer
KU football player Michael Chandler, 22, was in good condition yesterday after being shot at 5 a.m. Saturday at his southwest Lawrence residence, said Doug Vance, assistant athletics director.
Chandler: Was attacked by three unidentified men.
Chandler's family and the nursing supervisor at Lawrence Memorial Hospital asked Vance to speak on their behalf. Lt. David Cobb, of the Lawrence Police Department, said Chandler, Kansas City,
Kan., junior, was asleep at his house in the 4400 block of Adam Ave. when he was awakened by a knock at the door.
As he opened the door, three men in masks burst into the room and struck him with a baseball bat.
Police have not identified any suspects and have not received any leads from possible witnesses.
They asked to know where Michael Chandler was, not knowing it was Chandler who had opened the door. When they realized it was him, one of the men shot him in the groin area with a small-caliber handgun.
"We're pretty optimistic about his recovery." Vance said.
Chandler's roommate, who was awakened by the gunshot, found him lying on the floor. The men already had fled, Cobb said.
Chandler's roommates were instructed by the police not to discuss the shooting.
"All I know is that the police are investigating it," said Williams.
Chandler underwent surgery Saturday and was upgraded from fair to good condition yesterday, hospital officials said.
his recovery, vance said.
KU wide receiver Algen Williams, Lawrence junior, said he did not know why anyone would want to hurt Chandler, whom he considered a good friend.
Williams visited Chandler Saturday at the hospital but said he was unable to speak with him because he was still groggy from surgery.
He said many teammates had come to express their concern and support for Chandler and his family.
Chandler was not scheduled to start spring training March 30 with the team, because he had not recovered from an injury that he suffered last season. Vance said.
The 5-foot-11-inch, 195-pound wide receiver started the team as walk-on his freshman year. He subsequently earned a football scholarship, which he still has.
Last year, Chandler ranked third on the squad with 21 catches.
Football Coach Terry Allen said his primary concern was for Chandler and his family.

Martial arts exhibition kicks off festival week
Some members of the Asian-American Student Union will demonstrate their martial arts skills between 10:30 a.m. and 2 p.m. today in front of Wescoe Hall.
The demonstration is the first event of the Asian-American Festival, which will have activities all week to celebrate the Asian-American presence at the University of Kansas.
The students performing the demonstration are part of an informal, off-campus group that practices martial arts, said Charu Narula, social chair of the AASU.
"They're going to be sparing each other and wrestling," Narula said. An information table on festival events will be held between 9:30 a.m. and 2 p.m. today at the Kansas Union lobby.

Working parents don't harm children's stability
WASHINGTON — Children of women who work outside the home are not significantly harmed by their mother's absence, according to a study that evaluated the development and health of more than 6,000 youngsters.
"I found there was no difference between children whose mothers were employed vs. children whose mothers were not employed during the first three years," said Elizabeth Hanvey, a psychologist at the University of Massachusetts at Amherst. "Being employed is not going to harm the children."
Harvey's study, published in the March issue of the journal Developmental Psychology, came to a different conclusion than some earlier studies of the same group of children. The new work examined the children at a later age, 12 years old.
This suggests, said David Eggbeen of Pennsylvania State University, who co-wrote an earlier study, that problems detected in children of working mothers at age 3 and 4 may have gone away by the time the children were 12.
Lindsay Chase-Lansdale, an associate professor of human development at the University of Chicago called the Harvey study "an important contribution" but not the final answer on issues relating to children and working mothers.
Secret 'disruption' tactic hampers terrorist activity
WASHINGTON — Frustrated by restrictions on using military force against terrorists, the United States is turning to a lower-profile tactic. The CIA calls it "disruption" — working with foreign law-enforcement services to
harass and hamper terrorists around the world before they can pull off major attacks.
Least well-known of counter-terrorist weapons, disruption involves using new or long-established clandestine alliances with foreign intelligence and law-enforcement services in the tracking down, breaking up and knocking over of international terrorist cells.
There are no headlines when the job is done — and no fingerprints.
The CIA keeps its role secret, and the foreign countries that actually crack down on the suspects carefully hide the U.S. role, lest they stir up political trouble for themselves. Moreover, the CIA sends no formal notice to Congress once a foreign law-enforcement agency, acting on CIA information, swoops in and breaks up a suspected terrorist cell.
The key to disruption is that it takes place before terrorists strike, amounting to a pre-emptive, offensive form of counterterrorism, said Richard Clarke, President Clinton's counterterrorism coordinator.

U.S. condemnns China's human-rights record
BEJING — Secretary of State Madeleine Albright arrived in China on Sunday planning to deliver a strong rebuke for China's "deplorable pattern" of cracking down on political dissent, which continued even as her visit began.
State Department spokesman James P. Rubin suggested lack of improvement by China on human rights and other irritants could impede progress on Albright's primary mission, to negotiate with Premier Zhu Rongji terms for joining the World Trade Organization. The goal is to admit China in time for Zhu's trip to Washington in April.
Albright was meeting Monday with Zhu, Vice Premier Qian Qichen and Foreign Minister Tang Jiaxuan. On Tuesday, she plans to see President Jiang Zemin before heading to Thailand, then Indonesia, during her weeklong trip.
In Beijing, Albright will make clear that human rights is among the top U.S. problems with China's conduct. Rubin said. The State Department's annual human rights report, issued Friday, condemned China for jailed dissidents for trying to form a democratic political party.
MARJAYOUN, Lebanon — Lebanese guerrillas detonated two bombs beside a military convoy yesterday, killing a brigadier general and three other Israelis in one of the most serious attacks on Israel's forces in southern Lebanon.
Israeli warplanes retaliated after the bombing, firing missiles at suspected guerrilla hideouts in southern and eastern Lebanon, Lebanese security officials said. There was no immediate word on casualties from the air raid, the second in south Lebanon in as many days.
Brig. Gen. Erez Gerstein was the highest-ranking officer to die in Lebanon since the 1982 Israeli invasion. His vehicle, described by area residents as an arm-plated Mercedes, careened off the road, rolled into the valley below and burst into flames.
Two Israeli sergeants and an Israel Radio reporter, all of whom were in Gerstein's vehicle, also were killed.
Hezbollah, an Iranian-backed Lebanese guerrilla group, claimed responsibility for the attack. It came five days after another south Lebanon ambush killed three Israeli army officers, prompting renewed calls for Israel to pull troops out of Lebanon.
Israel occupied part of Lebanon in 1985 to prevent cross-border attacks, setting up a so-called "security zone" that covers about one-tenth of Lebanon. Hezbollah is the most active of guerrilla groups fighting to oust the Israelis and their militia allies.
Candidate to contest country's voting tactics
ABUJA, Nigeria — Presidential candidate Olu Falae plans to contest the results of Nigeria's elections, a top aide said Sunday, casting a shadow over the vote billed as a chance to bring democracy back to Africa's most populous country.
Saturday's presidential election, only the third in Nigerian history, was "completely rigged," said the aide, Sunday Durodola, who also is the party secretary for Falea's Alliance for Democracy.
The surprise announcement came as Nigerian election officials announced that faalae's opponent, retired Gen. Olusegun Obasanjo, a former military ruler seeking a civilian comeback 20 years after leaving power, had pulled further into the lead.
By yesterday evening, Obasanjo had captured 62 percent of the vote with 31 of Nigeria's 36 states and the federal capital reporting. Many of the remaining states have traditionally backed Obasanjo's Peoples Democratic Party.
"Our delegation members and others witnessed serious irregularities and overt electoral fraud in a number of states," said former President Carter, who led a 60-person delegation of election observers.
The announcements from Falae's camp followed reports by international observers of ballot box-stuffing and other serious voting irregularities.

African-Americans.
Diuguid said a group of African-American journalists yearly honored journalistic writings that best captured the spirit of African-American life.
"We have to change the dialogue." Diguid said. "We have to discuss in concrete terms how we can move forward."
These writings were then archived so that future people could view a positive history of African Americans, created by African Americans, Duiguud said.
The focus of the dialogue remained on religion and racism, however.
Antonio Shepherd, Lawrence resident and KU graduate in African and African-American Studies, who organized the event, said this was the primary reason why people did not attend the event.
"It is my opinion there are actually subjects we cannot discuss with people," Shepherd said. "People are afraid of talking about religion."
Shepherd used his personal money and funding from a Coca-Cola on-campus event account to pay for the event.
The event included a play and a concert in addition to the dialogue.
Only about five or 10 people attended the concert, Shepherd said, and the musicians were sent home early.
The event was sponsored by the African and African-American Studies Department.
However, the department did not know that Kwesi had replaced ben-Jochannan, said Peter Ukpokodu, chairman of the African and African-American Studies Department.

Commission candidates questioned

The Chicago Tribune
Editorial
Adoption of NIU program spurs responsibility, moderation at KU
Soon the University of Kansas will begin implementation of the Northern Illinois University alcohol program. This program has produced tremendous results at Northern Illinois University and the University of Arizona.
Michael Haines, coordinator of health enhancement services at Northern Illinois, said that after the program was implemented, heavy drinking was reduced by 44 percent and alcohol-related injuries were reduced by 76 percent.
The Northern Illinois program is a information campaign that stresses that most male students drink between 1 and 5 drinks each night and most females drink between 1 and 3 drinks a sitting. An in-depth survey that allows researchers to pinpoint exactly how much students drink provides accurate information for each campus.
By publicizing that the norm is lower than what most students perceive, the program creates social pressure for students to moderate drinking and to encourage peers to moderate theirs. The program also stresses that the best way to avoid hangovers and other alcohol-related problems, including arrests, is to drink moderately.
The system would provide help in fighting binge drinking.
The Northern Illinois program is not an anti-alcohol campaign. It does not tell students that drinking is wrong. Instead, it encourages drinking in moderation. Alcohol can be relaxing and a social lubricant, but excessive drinking eliminates alcohol's benefits and creates new problems. Alcohol abuse leads to violence, unplanned and often unwanted sexual encounters, and drunk driving.
It is the few who drink too much who cause problems for the majority of students who drink responsibly.
Data from Northern Illinois shows that publicizing that the norm is five drinks a night does not encourage students who do not drink or who drink very little to drink more. The reasons for not drinking often are based on strongly held beliefs that are not altered by this program.
Haines said that the Northern Illinois program is not effective for problem drinkers and alcoholics, because immunity to social pressure and norms is one of the signs of alcoholism. This program is intended to moderate the drinking pattern of the majority of students the majority of the time.
When students know that it is not normal to abuse alcohol, they are more likely to engage in positive actions such as preventing a friend from driving drunk or getting help for friends who are problem drinkers.
Unlike many of the proposals by the Joint City-Universities Task Force on Alcohol Abuse Prevention, this program targets all members of the University community. Measures such as keg registration, increased penalties for minor in possession charges or giving rewards for turning in people who make false forms of identification do nothing to prevent alcohol abuse — they prevent underage drinking. The Northern Illinois program addresses problems that arise from alcohol abuse by students who are older than 21 as well as those who are underage. It makes more sense to encourage everyone to drink responsibly than to focus all energy on preventing underage drinkers from having a couple of beers.
The Northern Illinois program is effective because it uses social norms and results in more responsible drinking habits. All data indicates that this program will be a beneficial addition to the University.

Professor questions board's loyalties
In his address to the students of the University of Freiburg in 1933, Martin Heidegger said the following:
"May you ceaselessly grow in the courage to sacrifice yourself for the salvation of our nations' essential being and the increase of its innermost strength in its polity. Let not your being be ruled by doctrine or 'ideas'. The Fuhrer himself and he
alone is the German reality, present and future, and its law. Study to know: from now on all things demand decision, and all action responsibility. Hell Hitler"
On page eight of his book on Martin Heidegger entitled *Heidegger's Political Thinking*, James F. Ward stated the following:
'cleansing' laws that excluded Jews and others from financial assistance, and promoted National Socialism to students and workers in public addresses. Most damning of all, he remained silent, or very nearly so, about the Holocaust."
"Heideger attempted to implement National Socialist aims during his recorder, including efforts to reform the teaching of science to meet the needs of the revolutions, compiled with racial
I take my stand against the totalitarian philosophy of Heidegger and its "reality" in Hitler's Germany. Whose side is the editorial board on?

e-mail the page staff (opinion@kansan.com)
or call 864-4924.

A check mark next to the candidate's name signifies an endorsement by the board.
One candidate, David McKinsey, could not be reached for an interview. According to Patty Jaimes, county clerk, McKinsey has no phone number and has failed to file a report of his financial status with the Kansas Commission on Government Ethics by the Feb. 18 deadline. An unsuccessful attempt was made to reach McKinsey through his address listed with the county clerk's office. As a result, McKinsey was not considered for endorsing by the editorial board.

quarters, man, I need quarters. I'm stranded at the laundromat, and the change machine is spitting my wrinkled dollars back at me so indignantly that I think I may take a
baseball bat to it.
It's not like I haven't tried avoiding this scenario. I bought a pack of socks a week ago, and now it's gone, so here I am.
Two days have passed since I shelled out a few scraps of cash for some discount boxers, and now I'm forced to wear the last pair I have, the ones with the crotch ripped out in an embarrassing incident.

pants, and for the first time in college, I'm wishing I had joined a fraternity just to have the T-shirts.
But no, I am now left with no options other than washing my prized collection of concert shirts, flannels from the alternative age and towels with just enough threads left to rub the water off, rather than dry skin.
Of course, excelling at procrastination as I do, none of the "nice" laundromats are open when I stuff my soiled articles into a cracked plastic basket, a few trash bags and a sack from the grocery store. No, my laundromat doesn't have pool tables or video games. The sign over my laundromat simply reads "24 Hours. Coin Operated," although the last part is hard to see because half the lights are burned out.
Inside, superior technology does not prevail. Aside from rows of washing machines that I assume used
"Please, take my dollar." I begged. "It's backed by the government. I swear it's good."
to be white, a weathered Coke machine rests next to the your-dollar's-no-good-here change machine. Inside the selection buttons of the Coke machine are cut-out tops of twelve packs of various soda brands — we're talking class here.
Above the coin slot on the machine is a swab of duct tape with "75 cents" scrawled out in black marker. Of course, I've got way more than 75 cents. I wrote a check for $10 at the grocery store to have money for the laundry, even asking for ones.
And now, I find myself getting on my knees and praying to the demon lord of change machines.
Finally, after agreeing to put in a good word with dryer No. 3, the change machine decides to give me the quarters I need. About then, I realized that I haven't remembered to bring detergent, and I strain every muscle in my face so as not to unleash a string of profanity that could make only a mother proud.
Tears pour out, and the patrons begin to look uncomfortable, probably silently cursing themselves for coming to a place like this at a time like this.
I've got plenty of dryer sheets, though, so when my clothes are rolling around in that machine that would probably work if it used heat, I know they won't be picking up static.
This thought is of little solace, though, as I drive back to the apartment, checking my watch to see how much more sleep I'll be losing, wondering if I'll get to see yet another sunrise through the greasy window panes of the laundromat, and beginning to realize that the whole living-at-home thing wasn't so bad.

Students flock to Robinson following athletic club fire

Some KU students' New Year's resolutions went up in flames when the Lawrence Athletic Club, 3201 Mesa Way, burned down early this month.
When William Madl, Bonner Springs senior, heard that the gym had been destroyed in a fire, he said he was horrified. He had purchased a membership to the gym for Christmas and was eager to use it.
But because of Robinson Center, Madi did not miss a workout. Madi and many other KU students whose exercise routines were disrupted by the fire have had to battle inflated prices, rigid contracts and crowds at various Lawrence gyms.
"Many people have been left without a gym to exercise in," said Mary Chappell, director of KU recreation services. "Robinson is trying to accommodate the recent and temporary accumulation of participants, but we have to be strict since there are classes here during the academic day."
KU Fit, an aerobics program offered at Robinson, has sold about 40 new passes since the fire at LAC, said Michelle Rider, director of KU Fit.
To make sure all Robinson users are KU students or staff, building officials lock all of the entrances, except on the west side, during the morning hours.
Louis Woods, Robinson security guard, has noticed about 25 more people in the gym each day. He said that now he scans about 90 student ID cards from 5:30 to 10:30 p.m. each day. Before the fire, he said he usually scanned about 65.
"I have had to keep my eye on things more," he said. "We must check IDs carefully, and that tends to really make students mad. But, hey, it's my job."
Other gyms throughout Lawrence also have had an increase in membership.
At the time of the fire, Total Fitness, 2108 W. 27th S., offered KU students a discounted rate for a new membership. Since then, Total Fitness has eliminated the student dis
count rate because of an increase in membership.
"We did have to discontinue our student discounts, but there's a good reason," said Martin Tuley, president of Total Fitness. "The capacity for our facility is around 2,700 members and we were already close to our limit."
Alvamar Nautilus Fitness Center, 4120 Clinton Pkwy, has also had a slight increase in membership said Tracev Kearn, manager.
Lawrence Athletic Club owner Richard Sells said the club could be partially reopened for service within a month and could possibly
be entirely open by June 1.
LAC members will not be billed for the time the club is closed, Sellis said. Members who already have paid will retain the time they had left on their membership as of Feb. 5.
Sells said membership information was not lost in the fire because he kept a backup of the club's computer system at home.
Members who will leave town before the club reopens should send a letter explaining their situation to 213 Glenview Dr., Lawrence, Kan., 6049, Sells said.

"It went very well, a lot better than last year," said Kristina Daggett, Columbus, Ohio, sophomore and chairwoman of the event. "We had more contestants, more prizes and a bigger audience."
Adrian Frank's, Manchester, Mo., senior, took home the title, placing first in two of the three events in which he competed. Trent Lickteig, Merriam senior, was the runner-up.
Contestants were allowed to compete in three of the four events.
The sixth annual contest began with the business suit competition and live music provided by the Beenburgers, the band of society president Jenny Balek, Topeka senior. First place in the suit competition was Franks, and Lick teig placed second.
After concluding their walk on the runway to ZZ Top's Sharp Dressed Man, the men pulled out guitars, card tricks and a Sousaphone for the next trial, the talent portion.
Dave Soderstrom, Wichita senior, and a partner won the talent portion with a swing dance routine, and Brian Hack, Lawrence senior placed second playing his Sousaphone.

Franks won that portion, while Matt Thompson, Beloit junior, and Will Dietz, Bartlesville, Okla., senior, tied for second.
"I'm stuck in a computer lab most of the time doing stuff which nobody understands," said Ronald Mihordin, Sacramento, Calif., senior and final competitor in the boxer shorts competition. "It's fun to let go once in a while and prove to the rest of campus that engineers don't have to be nerds."
The final event, the "geek factor," required contestants to wear their geekiest apparel and answer a question for the judges.
Bryan Meek, Liberal senior, earned first place and Lickteig received second.
"We had a lot of fun," Meek said. "Maybe next year I won't be too tired. Have a bit more fun with it."

The society will next be host of a swing dance from 7 to 10 p.m. on March 12 in the Kansas Union ballroom. Lessons will be provided for the first hour. Members get in for $3, while non-members pay $5.

Faculty displays architectural projects
Kansan staff writer
By Chris Hopkins
Twenty-eight Architecture and Urban Design faculty members will display about 100 pieces of their work at the Art & Design Gallery until March 5.
John Gaunt, dean of architecture and urban design, who is presenting some sketches he made of buildings in Berlin, said he had enjoyed his peers' work.
"We need to see what we're all doing from time to time," he said.
Gaunt said he liked the variety of the exhibits at the show, which began yesterday in the Art and Design Building.
"There's some current architectural work here, some drawings, some fanciful stuff." he said. "It's a good mix."
Anne Patterson, lecturer of Architecture and Urban Design, displayed some of the more unique pieces at the gallery.
"I have three kids, and that's a really big part of my life, and I use my art to do things for them," she said.
She also had paper cutout Spooner Hall models, which were made for its 100th birthday in 1994, and cutout Campanile models, which were made for its 50th birthday in 1996. The Spooner Hall model still can be purchased at the hall gift shop.
Patterson said she decided to show her work because it was not something that people would expect architects to do.
"You can actually make a big difference in a small way," she said. "I don't have time for buildings right now."
Dennis Sander, associate professor of architecture and urban design, said he had time for buildings and was working on two large projects.
He said one of his projects on display were pictures and a model of a massive aquarium that he designed for San Jose del Cabo, Mexico.
"This is three times as large as the world's largest now." he said.
Some of her pictures in the show were from a set she had painted for a school play and a cake she decorated for a birthday party.
Sander was forced to scale down his
Victoria Jimenez, Guadalajara, Mexico, senior, said that she learned a lot from the show, and that she particularly was interested in Sander's project.
The school offers faculty shows once every five years when the school is being reviewed for accreditation.
"I'm working on a project now and this is really helping me, giving me ideas," she said.
The school would have been accredited this semester, but the date was postponed until next semester. The school may offer another show in the fall.

Kansan stuff writer
The eighth annual Show of Natural Magic and Science Fair at the University of Kansas was no disaster, even though that was the theme of the event.
The show targeted elementary students and featured science exhibits by students from Lawrence and Free State high schools.
Yesterday's festival at Malott Hall was sponsored by the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences and the department of physics and astronomy. The departments of chemistry, geology and atmospheric science also provided exhibits, demonstrations and assistance in organizing the event.
Although the event focused on natural disasters such as tornadoes, earthquakes and other severe weather, the highlight of the festival was a show called "Movie Makeovers." The show looked at two recent movies "Armageddon" and "Deep Impact" to see whether they presented science
Another movie-related display was the Titanic room. Students were able to examine a model of the ship with the same damage as the original and see how the ship sank.
Barbara Anthony-Twarog, professor of physics and astronomy and one of the event's organizers, said she had sponsored the first festival eight years ago because she was concerned with the negative image science had in the minds of many grade school students.
She said the festival was aimed at younger children because they had not lost their natural curiosity about the world around them.
"I'd like it to be as normal to go to a science show as to an art museum." Anthony-Twarog said.
Philip Baringer, associate professor of physics and astronomy, agreed with Anthony Twarog about wanting to increase the appeal of science to children.
He said the festival also was designed to get kids to consider majors or careers in science.
"They still like science," Baringer said.
KU students who participated in the festival also said it had been designed to present a positive image of science to children.
Adrienne Juett, president of the Society of Physics Students, said the club had sent out fliers to every public and private school in Lawrence.
She said the festival was fun for the presenters as well as the kids.
"We like to do the demonstrations ourselves," Juett said. "But an audience helps."
She said about 800 people attended this year's event.
Chris Dillon, president of the American Meteorological Society student chapter, said the Atmospheric Science Club's Heavy Weather room showed
students what meteorologists really do.
He explained how weather forecasting was done and provided weather safety tips.
He also said the exhibit would help get students interested in meteorology and other sciences.
"Any kid who comes through here is going to be fascinated," Dillon said.
Kids and parents who attended the festival said they liked the disaster-related science exhibits as well.
"We've really enjoyed it," said Mary Strobel, a Lawrence resident who attended the festival with her husband and two daughters. "Our 5-year-old is at such a learning age — they want to know everything — and she's really enjoyed it."
Diane Guthrie, who watched her children create earthquakebases by stomping around seismic sensors that the department of geology had placed on the sidewalk, agreed the festival had been a success. She attended the festival with her husband, James Guthrie, associate professor of business, and their two children.
"The kids have been here before and wanted to come again," Diane said. "They always learn something new when we come. They have fun and learn at the same time."

Free services take hassle out of taxes for students
By Chris Hopkins
Kansas staff member
Rather than let students pay $40 to $100 to have an accountant do their taxes, three KU groups want to help students file their 1040 EZ for free.
Legal Services for Students and KU Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) are both offering free filing help until April 15.
Jo Hardesty, director of Legal Services for Students, said her office, which serves students on an appointment basis, was booked until spring break.
Kari Haverkamp, president of the KU Accounting Club, said the group also would help students with their taxes, but more specific plans had not been made.
"We've been getting a deluge of phone calls since people received their W-2s," Hardesty said.
She said Legal Services for Students was still taking appointments for non-income tax problems.
Hardesty said that because of the complexity of their forms, her office served many of the University of Kansas' international students. She said an international student's EZ forms were about ten times longer than the 1040 EZ
"We don't serve people who own small businesses. We don't serve people with more complex tax forms," he said.
VITA does serve international students, but they only have one volunteer, Lenny Guerra, who knows the ins and out of their returns.
He is available Tuesday evenings from 6:30 to 7:30 at Room 108 in Green Hall, and Wednesdays from 11:00 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. in the Daisy Hill Room at the Burge Union.
VITA, unlike Legal Services for Students, serves students at Haskell Indian Nations University and the rest of the Lawrence community.
Richard Lorenzo, VITA coordinator, said the group focused on people who needed help the most.
"By us going out into the community and letting them know that credits are available, I think we're providing a real service to the community." he said.
Westfahd said his motivation for volunteering with VITA was partially furthering his own education and partially helping other people.
"I think it's mutually beneficial," he said. "As a volunteer, I've learned a lot."
Although VITA shuts down after April 15, Hardesty said Legal Services for Students fielded tax questions from students year-round.
Hardesty said Legal Services for Students had helped students save money. She said one student had come into the office who had paid $40 last year for help with a tax return that garnered only a $20 refund.
"I think it's great that you can get free tax information when a lot of people are paying accountants $100," she said.

A Kansan reporter gets an arresting look
Officer Max Miller joined the Lawrence Police Department in 1991.

"You wanna try it?" he asked, handing me the gun. "There's one, coming over the hill. Shoot him."
I took aim and pulled the trigger — the digital display read 40 mph. The reading put the car at five mph above the speed limit. Officer Max Miller of the Lawrence Police Department said he usually would not pull over a car unless it was going at least 12 mph above the speed limit.
I rode around with Miller on Feb. 20 from 11 p.m. to 7 a.m. to learn what a typical Saturday night was like for a Lawrence police officer. In the process, I also learned why this Lawrence native chose to become a protector of the people.
It was 6 a.m. on a quiet Sunday when Miller decided to show me the radar gun. Traffic was light on Sixth Street. Miller, a fair-complexioned and sturdy man of Scottish-Irish descent, made a pun about
catching a church-goer speeding to make it to early service.
Then it occurred to me: Miller is a very funny guy. It's a subtle kind of humor that falls somewhere between Monty Python and Bob Dole with just a hint of the macabre. For example, around midnight we were silently creeping through Oak Hill Cemetery with the spotlight on to see if anything was awry.

Just when I was starting to get a little scared, he stopped the car by a faucet that was protruding a few feet from a gravestone.
"Thirsty?" he asked.
I can't quite sure if he was inking
Miller gave three tickets to cars parked on the wrong side of the road and was dispatched on calls that included four burglarized cars, a peeping Tom and a guy yelling in the streets of an east Lawrence neighborhood.
At 2:40 a.m., we stopped a car that was driving with the headlights turned off.
The driver of the car was a 13-year-

old girl. A 28-year-old woman sat in the passenger seat and a teenager was in the backseat with a 2- year-old, who was not in a car seat.
The group was from Topeka and said that they were in town visiting relatives. Miller said that in his eight years with the Lawrence Police Department, the girl was the youngest driver he ever had come across. The woman had no explanation for why she had allowed her 13-year-old cousin to drive the car.
After another officer drove the woman to two 24-hour stores in search of a car seat, Miller and the other officer decided to have them check into a nearby hotel for the night so that they could buy a seat in the morning when stores opened.
Miller said that it was a typical night. From 11 p.m. to 3 a.m., most of his stops are for DUIs or bar fights.
After 3 a.m., most calls deal with domestic disturbances, he said.
I realize that part of being a good cop is developing a sense of what to do in situations that aren't exactly mentioned in police training. But 33-year-old Miller said he enjoyed the unpredictability of the job.
As a boy, he said, he wanted to be a pilot. But soon after, poor eyesight put an end to his aspirations. From that point on, he wanted to be a police officer.
When asked why he decided so early on law enforcement, a long pause followed.
"I don't have a lot of tolerance for people who want to mess up life for everyone else," he said, speaking slowly and intentionally. "I want to see things that are wrong put right. Being a police officer is the societally acceptable way to go about it."
After graduating from Lawrence High School in 1984, Miller spent three years in the Army to get money for college.
In 1897, he enrolled in the University of Kansas and studied criminal delinquency and Russian. It was during the Cold War era and Miller considered pursuing a career with the FBI.
But the fall of the Berlin Wall coupled with Miller's desire to stay in Lawrence changed his direction. He doesn't regret not becoming an FBI agent.
"They're all accountants and lawyers these days, anyway," he said.
While in college, Miller worked as a military policeman with the National Guard. He also worked as a security guard

Department. The department has a tuition reimbursement policy that
pays 75 percent of books and tuition for officers wishing to continue their education.
"It would be almost stupid not to take advantage of that," he said.
So he did. While still working for the department, Miller took classes at the University toward a Masters in Public Administration. He finished in December.
Miller said the classes that he took in leadership were the most useful for his line of work.
"I learned that you should never assume that other people think like you do," he said.
Understanding what motivates people is an important aspect to being a good leader, he said.
Miller said that although he hoped the degree would help to advance his career in the future, for now, he was content with his job.
As the sky began to turn a predawn periwinkle, he talked about future goals. He and his wife, an urban planner who also attended the University, recently celebrated their 12th anniversary. He said that they were ready to start a family.
"Yeah, I sent off the coupon and keep checking the mailbox, but that baby still hasn't arrived," he said.

High school grad receives diploma after 57 years
Handy graduated from East Bakersfield High School but missed the ceremony when he enlisted in the Army during World War II. He called the school Thursday when rain idled work on his farm just outside of Lamont.
BAKERSFIELD, Calif. — Faye2 Handy figured 57 years was long enough to wait before picking up his high school diploma.
Handy never thought about picking up the diploma when he returned from Europe after the war. He was too busy working.
"I was sitting there thinking to myself, 'I never have seen my diploma,'" he said. "I got that diploma coming to me, so I called."
Sure enough, when school registrar Carol Parker went to the Class of 1942 file, there was his diploma. It was the only one left unclaimed.
As for his 15 minutes of fame, Handy is not used to the attention. "I don't care
much for it," he said.
much for it," he said. Man gets chest wound, jail time in foiled scheme
Beaver survived only to have his girlfriend turn him in.
ROCHESTER, N.Y. — Just shoot me! Clothing store owner John Beaver said that was what he told a friend as the two plotted a fake robbery in 1994. Beaver wanted Christopher Petton to shoot him in the shoulder, but he was shot in the chest because of his friend's poor aim.
Beaver, 29, pleaded guilty to grand larceny Wednesday in exchange for a prison sentence of 18 months to four years. He blamed the plot on cocaine addiction and clinical depression.
Monroe County Judge Patricia Marks ordered him to pay back $143,611 in stolen money and wages he collected while recovering.
"That you weren't killed, that somebody else wasn't killed, was strictly a matter of luck," Marks said.
Beaver had told police that an armed man broke into his T.J. Maxx store, demanded he open the safe, then became agitated and shot him. He had moved to Georgia by the time his girlfriend tipped off police last year.
Dog-bite-dog legislation could be costly for owners
Pelton, 27, pleaded guilty to grand larceny in December in exchange for a six-month jail sentence.
R
RICHMOND, Va. — There have long been laws punishing dogs that bite people, but a bill approved by the General Assembly takes on a whole new issue: dogs that bite other pets.
The legislation would make owners of dogs that attack and injure other pets pay $50 to register the dog, tattoo it and keep it in a proper enclosure. The owner would have to post a sign warning passers-by that they have a dangerous dog and buy $50,000 worth of liability insurance covering animal bites.
Hunting dogs and dogs that bite pets owned by the same person are exempt.
"It's a dog-bite-dog bill." Sen. John Watkins said Thursday, "It's opening up a situation where a lot of owners of pets are going to have to purchase insurance."
A legislative committee still has to work on the bill before it goes to Gov. Jim Gilmore.

Madness accurate description of March
Some say it's better than sex.
If that's too much for you, let's go ahead and say it's better than extended foreplay.
Welcome to March, the greatest month of the year.
It actually started this weekend. Yesterday to be exact. It started out a normal, perfectly lazy Sunday. My roommates and I dragged ourselves out of
bed shortly before noon to play basketball.
We stopped at Taco John's on the way home and planted ourselves on the couch, flipping from basketball game to basketball game.
P
After Kansas lost another late lead, we get a preview of what's in store this month in the wonderfully wild world of college basketball
Sam
Mellinger
sports @ kansan.com
The Murray State Racers were playing Southeast Missouri State for the Ohio Valley Conference championship. Mind you, none of us watching could tell you the name of one player on the court, but that's the beauty of March.
Mollinger is an Liberal, Kan., senior in journalism.
SEMO, as they were identified on ESPN's score box, had the ball down two with about 30 seconds left. I don't know what happened next because of bad remote control work, but once we flipped back the Racers were down one with less than six seconds to go.
Again, none of us knew any players on either team, but that's not the point. Murray State inbounded the ball to some guy — No. 12 — about 86 feet away from the basket. He's got two guys on him, but somehow manages to dribble his way about 70 feet down the court, throw up some running one-handed slop shot that splashed the net and sent the Racers into a frenzy and into the NCAA Tournament.
it's the most fun you can have with your clothes on.
I consider myself a relatively lazy guy, especially on Sundays after I've played basketball and polished off some Taco John's. But as soon as that shot went in, I leaped from my spot on the couch and did a little Racers-win-the-championship dance.
Visions of Richard Hamilton last year against Washington, Tyus Edney a few years ago against Missouri, and Christian Laetner in 1992 against Kentucky ran through my head as I realized how wonderful the month ahead of us is going to be.
Take away midterms, and March couldn't be better. You've got temperature in the 60s, you've got spring break and you've got March Madness. And this next month of your life should be even better than usual for Kansas fans since big-time heartbreak should not accompany the Jayhawks' postseason loss this year.
In no other sporting event can you find the raw emotion of March Madness.
The men's team's successful yet-nominating regular season should allow Jayhawk fans to not think of this season's tournament as a life-and-death situation.
Now you can focus more on being happy for this season's "Cinderelles," the small schools that sneak into the tournament by winning their conference tournaments and surprise the regulars with an inspired performance. These teams seldom advance to the Final Four, but are what separates college basketball's postseason from the predictability of professional sports' playoffs.
I'd take Bryce Drew's game-winner at the buzzer and ensuing celebratory dive over Michael Jordan's push-off and jumper over Bryon Russell any day.
'Hawks stumble against Cyclones
By Kevin C. Wilson
Kansan sportswriter
AMES, Iowa — The Iowa State Cyclones held the lead for less than a minute on Saturday, but that was all the time they needed to upset the Jayhawks 52-50 in the final game of the Big 12 Conference regular season.
The Jayhawks, 19-9 overall and 11-5 in the Big 12, were outscored 30-18 in the second half as the Cyclones ended a six-game losing streak to Kansas.
The loss dropped Kansas into a three-way tie with Missouri and Oklahoma for third place in the Big 12 and secured a No.3 seed for the conference tournament.
Kansas is now 7-6 in its last 13 games and has seemed to have lost some of the confidence that had helped it become the winningest Division I men's basketball team in the 1990s.
"It's been a very frustrating time, and yet there's a lot of college teams in the country that would like to be frustrated like Kansas is, but we're not every other basketball team," Williams said. "I'm very disappointed in the way we played. We've set a pretty high bar and we haven't reached it."
The Jayhawks seemed to be riding the momentum of their three game winning streak when they
jumped out to a 9-0 lead. Iowa State missed its first six shots, including two air balls, and did not score its first points until 13:33 remained in the first half. Kansas committed two turnovers in the first half, and shot 48.3 percent from the field as it led by as many as 12 points before taking a 32:22 lead into intermission.
"Iowa State, they kept in the game and felt like they had a chance," Williams said. "We had some chances to be ahead by more than 10 in the first half, but didn't make plays and didn't make shots."

Injured guard returns, helps lead 'Cats with 28; Jayhawks turn attention to Big 12 Tournament
By Melinda Weaver
Kansan sportswriter
In the first meeting between Kansas and Kansas State, the K-State women's basketball team could not stop Lynn Pride. In round two, Kansas could not stop Angie Finkes, losing 69-58.
Finkes scored a career-high 28 points on 12-of-15 shooting, a school-record goal percentage of 80 percent. She had spent the last four games on the bench with a stress fracture in her leg.
"Angie brought a lot of excitement and energy to the rest of us that we didn't have while she was on the bench," teammate Brandy Harris said. "We didn't want to lose, and she stepped up to keep that from happening."
After being down by as many as nine in the first half, the Jayhawks rallied and tied the score 28-28 at halftime.
In the first five minutes of the second half, the Jayhawks, led by Pride's six points, three steals and three assists, charged to a 12-point lead on a 14-2 run.
"It's tough to stop Lynn Pride," K-State coach Deb Patterson said. "She's a tremendous player, and Nakia Sanford is a big presence at post. We just had to step up on the defensive end."
With just less than 15 minutes left in the game, the Wildcats took control and never looked back. Finkes scored 16 of her 28 points in the second half, and sophomore Kim Woodlee came off the bench and scored 13 points on 3-for-5 shooting from behind the three-point arch.
"We lost some momentum on offense, and
their play escalated, which hurt us on defense," said Marian Washington. Kansas coach. "They controlled us on defense, which allowed them to chip away at the offensive end."
K-State outscored Kansas 39-16 in the last 15 minutes of the game.
Washington pointed to free-throw shots as one of the biggest differences in the game.
The Wildcats went 18-of-24 from the line, while the Jawhaws went only 3-of-5.
"We shut ourselves down." Washington said. "We weren't as aggressive as they were. When they're going to the free throw line 24 times to our five and making 18 to our three, that hurts. Obviously, we had to be more aggressive."
The Wildcats shot a season-high 56.4 percent from the field and outrebounded Kansas 32-18.
"Our post defense was not there tonight," said Nakia Sanford, who lead the team in scoring with 17 points. "They stretched out our defense a lot and isolated the inside. We didn't handle that well."
Kansas now looks to the Big 12 Tournament, which begins Tuesday in Kansas City, Mo. The Jayhawks have the No. 3 seed and will play their first game at 8:20 Wednesday evening against the winner of Tuesday's Oklahoma, Oklahoma State game.
Players said they had no doubt they could recover from this loss.
"I'm not sure what the problem was," sophomore Brooke Reves said. "They just had more fire. We're going to fix that before the tournament."

Red Raiders bombard Jayhawks in three-game sweep
By Matt Tait
Kansan sportswriter
As the saying in Kansas goes, "There's no place like home," and for the Kansas baseball team, it can't be any worse than the road.
The Red Raiders, ranked 17th nationally, are known for their explosive offense, and they provided Kansas a first-hand view of just how good they really are.
The Jayhawks traveled to Texas Tech this weekend and lost three games in three days, dropping their record to 2-8 overall and 0-3 in the Big 12 Conference.
"They're a good team with some experienced players," Kansas catcher Shane Wedd said. "They've got a couple of the best players in the conference."
The players Wedd referred to, catcher Josh Bard and pitcher Sash Wright, also happen

to be two of the best in the nation, and they dominated the weekend series.
Bard went 6 for 12 in the three games, scored four runs, drove in nine, and hit two home runs, his first two of the year.
Wright, the Red Raiders' starter in Friday's game, went the distance, giving up only one run on five hits, and struck out a career-high 12 batters.
On Sunday, the dayhawks put together their best performance of the weekend and
managed to take some good things away from the otherwise bleak series.
"Up and down the lineup, each guy had one or two good at bats," Wedd said. "We were in the game for a while and we were competitive. We came back when we were down and showed a little more fight and competitiveness."
The Jayhawks only managed four hits while Texas Tech pounded out 12.
The Jayhawks managed five runs on 10 hits in Sunday's finale, but Texas Tech jumped out to an insurmountable 9-1 lead that sealed the sweep.
Starter Colin Call (0-2) went four innings but
eave out nine runs, eight earned, in the loss.
Kansas starter Rusty Philbrick pitched 42/3
In Saturday's game, the 'Hawks were blanked 11-0 by another strong pitching performance and more offensive firepower.
innings and struck out four but gave up eight runs.
Only four of those runs were earned as the 'Hawks committed five errors in the game.
"The pitching was all right, we just didn't help them defensively and we didn't put up any runs for them either," Wedd said. "We've got to get better."
In the opener on Friday, Kansas failed to score until the eighth inning, as Shane Wright held the Jayhawks' bats down the entire game.
The Jayhawks' next action will come Wednesday against Baker University. The game is the home opener and will be the first game played in the newly renovated Hoglund Ballpark.
"We're ready to come home and get some hometown support." Wedd said.

Hamilton and starting center Jake Voskujai sat out that one with injuries, and Voskujai again sat out on Sunday with an aching foot. But with Hamilton back, that's all the Huskies needed.
This one was a measure of revenge for the Huskies, who were soundly beaten by Syracuse, 59-42, four weeks ago.
UConn, which fell behind by 10 points in the first half, got its high-octane offense in gear in the second half and ran away with the game.
Big East)—its 11th straight road win in the conference during two seasons — gave the Huskies the top seed in the Big East tournament and leaves Syracuse (19-10, 10-8) with something to prove if it hopes to make the NCAA tournament.
Syracuse, which played well at the beginning of the game, did not score a basket for a span of 8:30 — including the final 3:13 of the first half — as Connecticut rallied from an eight-point deficit with a 23-3 run.
That was UConn's first loss of the season. It snapped the Huskies' 16-game Big East winning streak and ended their 31-game home winning streak.

Cyclones not hurt by slow start
By Marc Sheforgen Associate sports editor
Iowa State coach Larry Eustachy told his players before yesterday's win that the game's beginning would be "big time" — a vital tone setter for whichever team surged first.
He said in the three practices leading up to the game that for the Cyclones to upset the Jayhawks they would have to draw first blood.
Eustachy was wrong. His team failed to score for the game's first six and a half minutes, trailing the Jayhawks by nine points before a Marc Fizer lay-in broke the draught.
"He (Eustachy) told us the begin ning would be big. He told us we would have to be ready. But we didn't do that," said Martin Rancik, Iowa State forward.
Eustachy called a 20-second timeout three-and-a-half minutes into the game, his team down 7-0. So much for plans for a big beginning.
He reminded his players that the new plan would be nothing original. Defense has been the key to the limited success of Iowa State (15-14, 6-10) this season. The Cyclones have held Big 12 Conference opponents to an average of 61 points.
They were off to a slow start, but the Iowa State players responded to their coach's reminder. They played Kansas nearly even for the rest of the first half and trailed 22-32 at the break.
In the second half, the Cyclones' defensive intensity outlasted the Jayhawks' offensive firepower. Iowa State tied the game with 9:34 to play
"I don't think they expected it," Rancik said of the comeback. "Maybe they backed off a little bit. I think we frustrated them."
The Cyclones' zone defense limited Kansas to 18 second-half points.
"Not everyone does that to Kansas," Rancik said.
The defense rendered the Jayhawks' leading scorer, Eric Chenowith, all but useless. Chenowith scored only two points in the second half for a game total of eight.
"Coach told us to get physical and challenge every shot," Fizer said.
to win, you also need to score. Three pointers were the answer for Iowa State. The Cyclones made six three-pointers in the second half, compared to only one in the first half. Rancik was 3 of 3 from long range. Only six of Iowa State's second-half points came from in the paint.
Defense wins ball games — yes. But
"At the beginning of the game, their pressure was great," Nurse said. "As the game wore down, they started to wear out. That's when we attacked them."
Michael Nurse, who made two of nine three-point attempts, said the Jayhawk defense yielded more open shot opportunities in the second half.
The Cyclones took their first lead with 54 seconds remaining, but, unlike the Jayhawks, were able to hangon.
Two more solid defensive efforts during Kansas' final two possessions capped a 52-50 victory.

Iowa State defense key to victory
Continued from page 1B
"That was completely my fault," center Eric Chenowith said about the Fizer's wide-open dunk. "I hedged to help Marlon (London) and they got a bucket."
The score was tied five times in the last nine minutes of the ball game, with the last one coming at 50-50 in the last two minutes. After the Jayhawks missed three shots in one possession, Cyclone forward Martin Rancik found Marcus Fizer open underneath with 54 seconds remaining and put Iowa State ahead for good.

On the Jayhawks' next possession, Chenowith was forced to take an off-balance three-point shot as the shot clock ran down.
"We've got the ball out of bounds and don't even get a shot off." Williams said. "That's embarrassing and humiliating. It was just a terrible play and that's the bottom line."
图
Kansas had another chance after the Cyclones' Rodney Hampton missed the front end of a one and one the Jayhawks called timeout with 3.8 seconds left. Chenowith tried to get the ball to a double-covered Nick Bradford, and the Cyclones stole the ball and the game from Kansas.
"I looked for Jeff and wasn't sure I could get it there," Chenwith said about the final play that was reminiscent of the last game's final play. "I thought Nick was open so I threw it the court length and it got deflected. It worked out for us last week and this week it didn't."
Yesterday was the Jayhawks' lowest point total in a conference game since a 42-1 loss to Missouri on Feb. 9, 1862. "We are not as good offensively as we'd like to be and we've had problems scoring." Williams said. "We're not throwing the ball inside and all of a sudden we get to the point where we're shooting jump shots every trip. It was

Kansan sportswriter
Powell dominated J.R. Chitley in No.2 singles, coming away with a 6-0, 6-2 victory.
The fans' sign on the wall said "Kenny Powell: Entertainment at Its Best," and the saying rang true Sunday as the Kansas men's tennis team defeated the Iowa Hawkeyes 6-1.
"I was very pleased with my performance today," Powell said. I think I stayed focused. I won the first set 6-0, but I was able to maintain the intensity level for the second set."
Sophomore Ed Dus also put together a solid performance, defeating Petar Mandic 6-2, 6-1 in No. 3 singles.
"I was very pleased with Ed's performance today," Powell said. "He played really well in singles. This is something I always knew he was capable of."
The three starting freshmen, Alex Barragan, Quentin Blakeney and Rodrigo Echagaray, continued their winning streak. They have won nine matches in the last three meets.
"The freshmen are getting much better," Kansas head coach Mark Riley said. "They have more experience now, and they are doing an outstanding job."
Kansas continued to dominate in doubles, sweeping the three doubles matches and earning the doubles point.
In collegiate tennis, the team that wins the best of three doubles matches earns one point.
The 12th-ranked duo, Luis Uribe and Dus, rebounded from its last home defeat to Wichita State by beating Ulf Jentler and Jason Dunn in No. 1 doubles.
"We returned well and put a lot of pressure on them," Dus said. "We were more on top of our game and played more energetically."
The only loss came in No. 1 singles as Uribe failed to win his 100th singles victory, losing to Tyler Cleveland 3-6, 7-1 (1). He has one more chance to win in front of a home crowd Saturday against Nebraska.
"We're getting better," Riley said. "The way we played three or four weeks ago, we would not have won today. Dus and Powell played outstanding, and we really dominated in doubles."
Dus said the increased intensity could be attributed to the fan support. Kansas played in front of a full house, which came with signs and cows bells, at Alvamar Country Club.
"The fan support really helped us out today." Dus said. "We owe a lot of that to Arjun Amaran (Overland Park junior.) He makes up for half the fan support. He's like the Candy Lady of tennis."
The Jayhawks have one more match at home against Nebraska before they embark on a five-game road trin.

Runner, vaulter one step closer to qualification
By Mike Miller
Kansan sportswriter
Pole vaulter Shannon Agee and runner Charlie Gruber inched closer to qualifying for the NCAA Indoor Championships after competing at the Last Chance Meet last weekend.
The men's and women's track teams sent 10 athletes to the Cyclone National Track and Field Qualifier at Iowa State in hopes of qualifying more athletes for nationals next weekend in Indianapolis.
Gruber, who won the 1,000-meter race last weekend at the Big 12 Championships, set a school record and finished third in the 800-meter race this weekend with a provisional qualifying time of 1:50.09.
Although Jim Ryun set the 880-yard record in 1967 with a time of 1:47.91, the mark has never been converted to meters.
"I wanted to break 1:50, but when you break a school record you have to be pretty happy with that," Gruber said. Coach Gary Schwartz said Gruber had a chance to improve on his time, but was placed in a slower heat.
"He gave every indication that he was ready to run very fast, but he needed to be in the right race," he said.
Agee vaulted a season-best 12 feet and finished tied for second. The mark provisionally qualified her for next weekend's meet, but does not assure her a spot in the field.
TRACK AND FIELD
"We won't know if that mark is significant and will qualify her until Monday," Schwartz said.
All-American Andrea Branson, ranked fourth nationally in the pole vault, finished fourth with a mark of 11 feet, 1/4 inch. Branson already has provisionally qualified for nationals.
Pole vaulter Colby Miller, currently ranked 15th nationally, vaulted 16 feet, 10 3/4 inches, finishing second. Schwartz was optimistic that Miller's mark would be strong enough to earn him a spot at nationals.
Hurdler Eric Patterson finished third in the 60-meter high hurdles with a time of 8.04 seconds, but fell short of the qualifying time of 7.88 seconds.
All-American 35-pound weight thrower Scott Russell is the only Jayhawk automatically qualified for nationals. Russell, currently ranked fourth nationally, set a school and Big 12 Conference record with a throw of 73 feet, 6 inches.
"We wanted to get more people qualified, but it didn't happen. Hopefully everybody came away from it with something that makes them a better athlete," Schwartz said.

Tennis team falters in home opener

Kansas is now 2-5 this season.
Kansas lost all of its singles matches and one of its doubles matches.
The No.3 doubles team of Lisa Mallaiah and Monica Sekulov won its match 8-6.
Cheryl Malaiah and her partner, Christi Wagenaar, won at No.2 doubles, 8-4.
Sell strained two ligaments in her ankle on Friday when she fell down some stairs while decorating for a semi-formal for student athletes, head coach Jenny Garrity said.
In singles play, Kansas lost 5-0 and had to switch its lineup because of an injury to No.1 singles player Kris Sell.
"She should be on crutches until Monday," Garrity said. "She is very doubtful for next weekend."
Kansas will face Baylor on Friday and Texas Tech on Sunday.
Brooke Chiller moved up to the No.1 singles spot in Sell's place. She lost 6-2, 2-6, 1-6.
"I was really proud of the way she played," Garrity said. "I know she was disappointed in the outcome, but she put a lot out on the line. I'm proud of her."
Chiller won the first set against Ana Frigianovic, currently ranked No. 89 nationally and fifth regionally.
"I played really well in the first set," Chiller said. "It made a difference playing at home because when I looked up to the stands I saw familiar faces."
Friganovic won the second and the third set.
"I need to continue playing my game no matter what the score is or who the opponent is." Chiller said. "I made too many errors."
In No. 3 singles, Sekulov lost to Aimee Hites, 6-2, 4-6, 1-6
Hits played at Shawne Mission East before attending New Mexico.
Garrity said the singles lineup was effective even though Kansas lost.
At No. 4 singles, Julia Sidorova lost 6-0, 6-3 to Dominika Gerwin.
"Everyone matched really well, even though we moved everyone up one spot," she said.
Sidorova is now 9-11 in singles this year.
Wagaenan lost her No. 5 singles match to Nicoleta Spilaca, 6-2, 6-2.
Garrity said the team needed to work on the basics before next weekend's matches.
"We need to improve a great deal by Friday," she said. "We had too many double faults and our returns need work."

$10 million parking garage to be completed in Fall 2000
Kearns and Glenn Prescott, chairman of the Parking Board, submitted next year's
By Kristi Reimer Kansan staff writer
A new parking garage north of the Kansas Union will free about 400 metered spaces for student parking in nearby lots, said Don Kearns, director of parking services.
Most of the 300 spaces in the garage not reserved for visitors also will be student parking, although specific allocations among students, faculty and staff have not been finalized.
parking budget to University Council last week and reported on this year's projects, including the new garage.
The garage will contain 815 spaces, 500 of which must be paid for at hourly visitor rates to generate revenue for a $1 million yearly bond payment, according to the report.
"That's been the plan from the beginning." Kearns said.
The garage will absorb most visitor parking from that area of campus. Kearns said he would remove the meters from Memorial Stadium iots, Mississippi Street and Jayhawk Boulevard, which would open about 400 spots for students plus additional spaces in the garage.
Parking would be eliminated in some congested areas, such as in front of the Union.
"I want to open up that street," Kearns said. "It will be a lot safer."
Kearns said that if visitors weren't using the garage, those spaces would be open to students, faculty and staff. But he said he thought that was unlikely because of the garage's proximity to museums and the Union.
Holly Krebs, holdover senator, said the report was more positive and student-friendly than student senators were expecting. Krebs said she was glad to hear about the additional spaces in the parking lots.
Regulations exclude some KU students from donating
See GARAGE on page 3A
Blood drive organizers unsure about how many are rejected
By Clay McCuintish Special to the Kansan
The University of Kansas Athletic Corporation blood drive last week and the American Red Cross blood drive this week have brought the rule into focus.
A Food and Drug Administration regulation that has been in place for more than 10 years is preventing gay men from donating blood.
The FDA requires all blood donors to answer 49 questions about their health and behavior before they donate. If potential donors answer "yes" to any of the questions, they are turned away.
Raven Heavy Runner, Browning, Mont,
senior, disagrees with the regulation.
"They're cutting down on those who would donate blood, who are gay males, and who are HIV-negative." Heavy Runner said. "It snacks of homophobia."
The question at issue asks, "Male Donors: Have you had sex with another man, even one time, since 1977?" The question for females asks if they have had sex with a male who has had sex with a male since 1977.
"At the time it didn't bother me, because they didn't know that much about [AIDS]," Heavy Runner said. "Now you would think they would have brought their regulations up to par."
Heavy Runner tried to donate blood in 1985, when he was 21 years old. He was deferred because of the regulation.
Cindy Schmiederel, Kansas Blood Services employee and organizer of the KUAC blood drive, said it was better to err on the side of safety than risk taking infected blood.
"If my son received blood, I would want prescreening and testing in place," Schmiedeler said.
On Feb.24, the KUAC drive attracted 69 possible donors by 2 p.m. Fourteen failed to meet the 49 health criteria. Schmeidler said she didn't know how many of the 14 had failed because of the sexual activity restrictions.
"It's frustrating to me." Schmiedeler said. "I'm judged solely on the number of units collected. Strict deferral criteria mean fewer donors."
Debbie Wadhams, a medical technologist in Overland Park, agreed that safety was paramount.
"It's worth keeping the regulations," Wadhams said. "It doesn't make it fair to the patients to relax current standards and put patients at risk."
Wadhams has worked in medical safety and testing for 24 years. From 1981 to 1988, she supervised and tested blood banks at various hospitals.
She said she remembered when AIDS first appeared.
"As healthcare workers, we're in the business of trying to save people. When the blood we give patients gives them a fatal disease, it's totally opposite what we're trying to do." Wadhams said.
Although donated blood is now tested for HIV and other diseases, the tests aren't perfect.
"Different diseases have different stages," Wadhams said. "Depending on the stage of the disease, a person could have a disease, and it not show up in tests."
Wadhams said the guideline should stay despite the fact that gay men aren't contracting the disease at the fastest-growing rate.
"The gay male population is still and always has been the group with the highest percentage risk of the disease," she said.
The KU chapter of the American Civil Liberties Union had no comment on the issue, said president Buddy Lloyd.
"I support any effort to eliminate unfair policies or practices based on sexual orientation," Robinson said. "I also applaud the efforts of students who are involved in organizing this blood drive, and I'm going to donate a pint."
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Web site, homosexual men are at higher risk for HIV because of the internal sexual contact they receive, if unprotected.
"Maybe we should look into it," he said. Queers and Allies director Christine Robinson said she thought the regulation should be examined and possibly altered.

Change machines may get the boot
By Nadia Mustafa
Kansan staff writer
Residents at Stouffer Place Apartments — many of whom are non-traditional or international students whose spouses aren't students — are upset that a change machine was removed from their laundry room last September.
Ann Curry, Student Housing Advisory Board representative and Stouffer Place resident, said that Stouffer residents relied on the change machine. She said that the machine was not replaced after it broke last fall.
"Many women residents have little kids, and they do not have drivers licenses," said Curry, Lawrence graduate student. "It's inaccessible for them to go and get change. We also have a large majority of international student families, and women are not allowed to make financial transactions in some orthodox religions. It was culturally insensitive for housing to pull the coin machine."
Curry said that the 300 Stouffer Place residents should not be forced to use KUIDs to pay for laundry because of their ethnic diversity and unique circumstances.
"I embarrassed because this is a blotch on the University's face," she said. "We should not have to beg for this. They're manipulating us as consumers."
Curry said that a resident vandalized the KUID machine in January at the
laundry room out of frustration from the lack of a change machine.
When the University implemented the new KUID last spring, Coca-Cola inherited the change machines and sub-leased them to Treat America, a Lenexa company that provides KU with non-beverage vending services and all of the change machines.
Jack Mitchell, president of Treat America, said that the change machine at Stouffer Place was used almost exclusively for laundry instead of snacks, which was not beneficial for business.
"The machine broke, and we did not put a new one in," he said. "We did not

With violet ribbons pinned on their shirts, KU students wrote down on purple slips of paper yesterday the names of women they cared about.
To kickoff Women's History Month, women on campus conducted the Ribbon Project, which will continue from 10:00 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. today in front of Wescoe Hall.
The purple slips of paper will be sturng together to form fringes that will be displayed at the Kansas Union for the rest of March.
One mother, after learning her daughter had written her name on a ribbon, was momentarily speechless.
"I'm overwhelmed," Linda Abell said, "I'm just really overwhelmed. That's really special for me."
Kristen Abell, Overland Park senior and one of the organizers of the Ribbon Project, said that she had selected her mother because of how she had persevered through difficulties in her life.
"What we want to do is have people recognize women, or men, and the impact they've had in their own lives," she said. "It's easy to put up posters everywhere of people you don't know, but it's important to recognize
Women's History Month is an important time to recognize the value of women in our culture right now, said Kathy Rose-Mockry, director of the Emily Taylor Women's Resource Center.
The Ribbon Project was sponsored by the Emily Taylor Women's Resource Center, the Black Law Student Association, the Department of Student Housing, the Panhellenic Association, the Multicultural Resource Center and Women in Law.
extraordinary women in our everyday lives."
Hundreds of names had already been written down, Kristen Abell said.
"When you have history in the title, some people tend to think of past events, but history is an ongoing process," she said. "One of the things that is really important is to look not only at past events, but to look at where we are now and where we are going."
International Working Women's Day, March 9. will be one opportunity to focus on the contemporary position of women.
The day is dedicated to increasing awareness of the working conditions of women throughout the world, which are still unsafe in many instances, Rose-Mockry said.

Chandler returns home expected to recover
Michael Chandler, a wide receiver for the University of Kansas football team, was released yesterday morning from Lawrence Memorial Hospital where he was treated for a gunshot wound to the groin, said Doug Vance, assistant athletics director.
Vance said that Chandler, Kansas City, Kan., junior, was expected to spend several days recovering at his parents' home before returning to campus for classes.
Doctors indicated that the injury should have no effect on Chandler's football career at the University, Vance said.
Police do not currently have any suspects in the shooting, said Sgt. Rich Nickell of the Lawrence Police Department.
"We're trying to piece together what happened that night." he said.
Nickell said that Chandler went out Friday night.
"We're talking to people he may have been with earlier in the evening," he said.
Former KU football player Justin Glasgow said that he was unclear about what had happened.
Chandler was asleep at his house in the 4400 block of Adam Avenue when he was awakened at 5 a.m. Saturday morning by a knock at the door.
"No one was there, and the people who were there aren't talking," he said. "I can't make a judgement whatsoever about it."
Swastika found burned on Oliver Hall room door
As he opened the door, three men in masks burst into the room and struck him in the chest with a baseball bat, and then one of the men shot him in the groin area with a small-caliber handgun.
An Asian-American KU student had a swastika burned on the door of his Oliver Hall residence between 5 p.m. Friday and 5 p.m. Saturday, said Ggt. Troy Mailen of the KU Public Safety Office.
Police had not identified the race of the residents in the other two rooms.
Two neighboring doors also were van dalized, however, the markings on the doors were illegible, Mailen said.
Mallen said that they did not have any suspects.
"The important thing is to learn if it was random or directed at this particular person," he said.
Mailen said he wasn't sure what had been used to burn the symbol on the door.
There were three hate crimes in 1998 at the University and two so far in 1999.

Asian American Festival to highlight lives, culture
The Asian American Festival, held throughout the first week of March, will include several events to celebrate the lives and culture of Asian-American people.
The Asian American Student Union,
Student Senate and the Multicultural Resource Center will sponsor an Asian art gallery tour of the Spencer Art Museum at 12:15 today.
A free movie, Eat a Bowl Of Tea, starring Russel Wong, will be shown at 7:00 tonight at the Spencer Art Museum Auditorium. The comedy explores relationships in Chinese-American culture.
Wednesday, the Asian-American theater家 "hereandnow" will perform at 7 p.m. at the Spencer Art Museum Auditorium. The event is free
Teh Sun, internal vice-president of AASU, had seen the company twice before and had been impressed, she said.
"They perform across the country and promote Asian awareness," said Sun. "In their skirts you can laugh at your own culture, I guess you could say, but at the same time you can feel proud of it."
Thursday, Henri J. Doner-Hedrick, an Asian-American artist, will speak at 3 p.m. at the Kansas Union lobby.
Friday, pop star Joelyn Enriquez will speak at 7 p.m. at Alderson Auditorium in the Kansas Union. The event is free.
Enriquez, whose song, "Do You Miss Me," placed third on a Billboard chart, will speak about growing up as an Asian-American and her success as a music performer.
Saturday, Enriquez will sing at a dance party at 10 p.m. at the Kansas Union Ballroom.
Preceeding the dance party will be Taste of Asia, an opportunity for KU students to sample Asian cuisine, culture and fashion.
Food will be served at 6 p.m. at the Ecumenical Christian Ministries building, 1204 Oread Ave. Fashion shows and culture presentations will be held at 7:30 at the Kansas Union Ballroom
Tickets cost $4 for entrance to both

"I wrote him several weeks ago, telling him what I planned to do in the class but never expected to get a reply," said Wichita lawyer Robert Beatie, who teaches political science part-time at Newman University.
STATE
WICHTA — Teaching assistants are fixtures at America's colleges and universities, eagerly helping professors grade papers, administer tests and even teach class for a day.
"He's probably the most famous or most notorious prisoner on the planet. He gets more mail and more requests like this than anyone else in prison. But he called right away after I wrote."
Charles Manson helps students restage trial
All of which makes Charles Manson's foray into the role of teacher's aide at a quiet Catholic school in Kansas a bit strange, if not disconcerting.
Beatie wants Manson's help in restaging the trial in which Manson was found guilty of the bloody 1969 killings of actress Sharon Tate and four others in her house.
After all, as Manson put it in a taped conversation with Beattie, "I have 50 years of experience in incarceration. ... I pretty much have a leg up on the law from an underworld perspective."
Congress may eliminate national debt by 2014
NATION
WASHINGTON — The United States is on the threshold of a truly remarkable turnaround in financial fortunes; the tantalizing prospect that the booming economy could make the federal government debt-free in just 15 years.
And it could happen, for only the second time in the nation's history, with seemingly no heavy lifting.
If politicians simply leave current policies alone, the president's Office of Management and Budget projects the $3.7 trillion debt held by the public will be wiped out in 2014.The Congressional Budget Office is even more optimistic, predicting publicly held debt could be gone by 2012.
With politicians eager for tax cuts and more spending, no one expects lawmakers actually to leave well enough alone.
IRS self-audit released, finds problems in records
WASHINGTON — It sounds like a taxpayer's dream: The IRS was audited and struggled to explain its own financial records.
"The IRS cannot do some of the basic accounting and record-keeping tasks that it expects American taxpayers to do," said Gregory Kutz, who oversaw the audit released yesterday by the congressional General Accounting Office.
GAO said IRS is unable to keep track of unpaid taxes properly, which means it cannot concentrate collection efforts on the taxpayers most likely to pay. The upshot is that only about $26 billion of the $222 billion in unpaid taxes as of October 1998 are likely to be collected.
IRS officials were quick to take responsibility for the problems, which they said were largely rooted in the agency's antiquated computer systems that date as far back as the Kennedy administration.

New garage will offer 815 additional parking spaces
But Krebs also said she thought students deserved more spaces in the garage because of an increase in their parking fees last year.
Continued from page 1A
Annual student rates rose from $53 to $75, about 42 percent, between the 1996-97 academic year and 1997-98.
"I don't think the Parking Department is publicly recognizing the financial input students are having on the parking garage," she said.
Dedra Seibel, Nunemaker senator and University Council vice president, said Student Senate would continue to push the Parking Department for more student spaces.
"Now is the time to start changing those things," she said. "Heavy lobbying of that group will be a priority."
The parking report stated that there would be no increase in parking fees next year.
Garage permits, including the garage near Allen Fieldhouse, will cost $5 plus the permit fee.
The Parking Department also is changing its policy on stickers and hang tags. This year most people were required to use stickers because hang tags had been stolen in previous years.
But in response to complaints from people who wanted to car pool and share a permit, faculty, staff and students will be able to purchase hang tags or stickers.
Lost or stolen permits will be the responsibility of the purchaser.
"If they lose it, they're going to have to pay the full price pro-rated." Kearns said.
The total project cost for the parking garage is $10 million.
University Architect Warren Corman said construction was expected to begin in May or June and be completed in early fall 2000.

Networks director leaving KU
Search for successor is not yet underway committee leaders say
By Jennifer Roush
Kansan staff writer
Jan Weller, who has been director at Networking and Telecommunications Services at KU for 10 years, has accepted a position as director of network coordination at Washington University in St. Louis. She will leave campus April 2.
Weller's departure is the second announced this semester in Information Technology Services, which includes Academic Computing Services and Networking and Telecommunications.
Not only is Academic Computing Services getting a new director this fall, but Networking and Telecommunications Services will lose its director in April.
Bill Crowe, vice cancellor for information services, said that although both Academic Computing Services and Networking and
Telecommunications Services were changing leadership, there was no connection between the changes.
He said that because talent was scarce in the information technology field, corporate recruiters were aggressive in seeking potential employees.
Weller considered staying at KU, Crowe said, but ultimately decided to accept Washington University's offer because it would allow her to be close to her aging mother.
Weller earns $72,000 per year as director at KU.
The search committee that will recommend Weller's replacement has not yet been announced, said Marilu Goodyear, associate dean of libraries. She and Richard McKinney, assistant vice chancellor of information technology, are responsible for naming committee members, she said.
The committee is composed of six members, none of whom are students. Goodyear said.
She said that the lack of student involvement was because of the administrative nature of the position.
Goodyear also said that she had discussed interim management with Networking and Telecommunications staff, because the search for Weller's successor would not be finished before Weller left KU.
She said that she expected the search to take between two and three months.
McKinney said he hoped to be able to announce the members of the search committee late this week or early next week.
He said that although the list was final in his mind, the Equal Opportunity Office would have to approve it before it could be made public.
Once the committee is approved, members will search nationally for Weller's replacement. They will place announcements in professional publications and with professional associations, he said.
They will also consult with other faculty and staff members as necessary during the search.
"It is a rather involved process," McKinney said.
Weller could not be reached for comment.

Apartment residents file lawsuit
Female residents seek thousands for costs and emotional distress
By Katie Burford
Kansan staff writer
Although police still are investigating peepholes discovered above the bedrooms and bathrooms of several units in Parkway Terrace Apartments, three women who lived in the complex are suing the owners for negligence, according Douglas County court records.
The women, including one University of Kansas student, hired attorneys Michael Maddox and Peter Johnston to represent them in a civil suit against William and Mary Lemesany, Parkway Terrace owners.
Peephole locations
Peepholes were found in the maintenance closets between apartments of several female tenants in the Parkway Terrace Apartments, 2340 Murphy Drive. The peepholes allowed views of the bedrooms and bathrooms of the tenants.

According to the court file, the landlords were negligent because they allowed the holes to be drilled without warning the tenants. The landlords also did not attempt to get rid of the holes.
The maintenance hallway entrance, which is between each apartment, usually is locked. A tenant found the door open Jan. 27 and discovered the holes, said Sgt. Wheeler of the Lawrence Police Department.
The holes' placement would have allowed a person in the hallway to look into the bedrooms and bathrooms of the female tenants.
"We're about midway through the investigation," he said. "We're still looking at evidence
Angle Kuhn/KANSAN
Police have collected evidence from the scene for analysis in the lab. Wheeler said
and trying to narrow down the list of possible suspects."
Attorney Peter Jouras, of Johnson County, also is representing a group of women who lived at the complex during the time the holes were discovered.
Jouras said that he would wait until the evidence was returned from the lab to decide what action to take.
"You can tell from the holes that if you were looking through them, your forehead would touch the wall leaving skin stains and possibly drol." he said.
If police were able to match these samples to a specific individual, then this would be ground for criminal charges, he said.
Jouras said he could represent as many as 15 women who lived in the complex. He said that most of them had moved out.
The three residents who Maddox represents also have changed residences. He said that $75,000 in damages he had filed in the suit would cover the cost his clients incurred by relocating. It also covers emotional distress that they said they suffered as a result of the ordeal.
He said that the suit was meant to make a statement.
"We don't want that kind of behavior—especially in a college town," he said.
Both lawyers said that the case was unusual.
"I haven't seen anything this extensive that lasted over such a long period of time and affected so many people," Jouras said.
The Lemesanys were issued summonses in the negligence suit. They could not be reached for comment. They have paid to fix the holes.
Maddox said that it was too early to predict when the case might go to trial.

Closeness of campus blood drives hampers total number donating
A campus blood drive is a good thing, but scheduling two of them one week apart is foolish.
The Kansas University Athletics Corporation and the joint effort of the Association of University Residence Halls, All Scholarship Hall Council, the Interfraternity Council and Panhellenic Association should not have scheduled their blood drives so close to each other. To qualify to donate blood, donors must wait eight weeks between donations. The rapid succession of the blood drives prevents students from being able to donate in both drives, reducing the amount of blood given.
Not only does the schedule prevent students from donating blood more than once a semester, it also causes competition between the two blood drives. Cindy
Eight-week waiting period should be observed by organizations sponsoring drives.
Schmiedler, recruitment and marketing specialist for Kansas Blood Services, said she did not see any competition between the two blood drives because she believes the campus was large enough to provide both drives with plenty of blood.
Erin Deusing, Panhellenic blood drive chairwoman, disagrees. The American Red Cross blood drive, which began yesterday and runs through Friday, is competing with Kansas State for total donations. Deusing said that the University would be able to beat Kansas
State if all efforts were combined.
KUAC and the four living-group associations should coordinate their schedules so that the blood drives are eight weeks apart. There are 16 weeks in a semester and two blood drives each semester. Lengthening the amount of time between blood drives is feasible and more reasonable than scheduling them back-to-back
Instead of making the same mistake next year, coordinators of the two drives should meet and discuss when their respective blood drives will take place and schedule them so that they do not conflict. The result of non-discordant blood drive schedules will increase the amount of blood donations and better the University's chances of defeating Kansas State.

College Assembly presence scarce
The fate of the debate concerning a diversity requirement in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences lies in the hands of members of the College Assembly, the governing body of the college. The more than 100 students and instructors who compose the assembly, however, have brought commitment into question.
After about 10 months of debate, members of the assembly who attended a Feb. 2 meeting agreed to resolve the issue by a mail ballot. Sally Frost-Mason, dean of the college, said all ballots should be returned by the end of March.
Overseeing the largest academic school at the University, the assembly's potential influence is great. Thousands of undergraduate and graduate students major in departments of the college.
CLAS should impose attendance policy for meetings.
Moreover, students who plan to enter the Schools of Journalism, Business and Social Welfare, among others, must first complete one to three years of study in the college.
Yet at the Feb. 2 meeting to debate the requirement — arguably the most controversial issue the assembly has handled recently — about 30 members of the assembly were absent.
such a vocal and publicized debate that is barely less than a year old. If all members of the assembly were responsible and dedicated enough to show up to that meeting, we would not be waiting.
Attendance at assembly meetings, Mason said, varies considerably. In November, for example, when the assembly approved a policy to grant minors in addition to majors, only 32 members were present.
Mason said voting by mail ballot would allow members to consider the vote thoroughly rather than rush to a vote at a meeting. But mailing ballots hardly makes a difference to the outcome of
Student senators, who have comparable obligations to work for a better University, are only allowed two unexcused and three excused absences each semester before they face suspension. A similar system should exist to keep the college's supposed representatives in check.
The generally poor record of participation by members of the assembly insults those whom they represent.

Wedding show advises anxious KU women
S
and dare I say weddings.
Some men truly are in the dark when it comes to certain things.
There are so many differences between men and women it would be ludicrous to name all of them in this column. So I will only name one. The Learning Channel's "A Wedding Story."
10
It's on at 2 p.m. everyday, two episodes of real couples, real lives, real weddings.
Thanks to this program I have had my wedding planned for as long as I can remember.
Sure, the grooms change depending on who I'm dating at the time. Which is fun,
Here's where I tell all the attached guys out there that your girl has somewhere, secretly done just this with your last name.
kinda like guess-your-last-name game. You know, Jamie Smith or Jamie Smith-Patterson, or Jamie Patterson-Smith, or Jamie Greene.
Scared, boys?
You will be after what I'm about to tell you.
Do not invite more than 700 people.
We're taking notes:
Do not have a Halloween theme and ask your guests to come in costume unless you have a family with a sense of humor.
If your new husband is telling all the guests he'll be "scoring" after they all leave, consider separate honeymoons.
■ Do not wear a strapless wedding gown. When you accidentally step on the front of your strapless dress, your you-know-whats may come tumbling out.
If your husband-to-be wants to hold a Civil War
re-enactment on your wedding day you should go ahead and shoot him and wave a flag.
If your husband-to-be gives you gardening gloves as a wedding present, run.
There are so many things we girls are learning from this show.
My sister will sometimes only watch the first few seconds of the show, when they flash the names of the couple on the screen. She has an amazing ability to tell by the names whether the show will be worth watching.
I have one friend who only watches to see what kind of bouquet the bride has. Another friend keeps track of how many sleeveless gowns vs. sleeved gowns there are.
We also now know, thanks to this show, what the grooms are really doing on the wedding day. While I'm in a salon agonizing about my hair and veil, I know that my groom will be out playing golf, or football with his buddies. Either that or he will be in bed recovering from his last night of freedom.
It may rain, the rings could get lost, possibly no guests will show, we may forget our vows, we may say the wrong name, but this show has prepared us. We've seen it all before.
My mom likes to predict which marriages will last and which couples are staying together long enough to keep the wedding gifts without any guilt.
Everyday at 2:00 I get a little lesson in life.
As I sit with my mom and sister, and girlfriends here at the University, we cry while we jot down that pea green isn't the most flattering color for attendants.

If it is any consolation, your girlfriend may have her wedding planned, but it doesn't necessarily include you.
As the attached men of the world struggle to accept marriage as inevitable, ladies, don't give up on them.

Turkey's arrest of Ocalan shadowed by past wrongs
With the Feb. 16 capture of Kurdish rebel leader Abdullah Ocalan, citizens of the world were faced once more with the bureaucracy of U.S. foreign policy and the Turkish
For those who are not familiar with the poor human rights record of Turkey, here is some information. Cyprus, the country I come from, is an island close to Turkey and an island suffering from the bullying of Turkey. They

hypocrisy of U.S. foreign pol government. The U.S. rushed to applaud Ocalan's capture, and the Turks celebrated the arrest of a "terrorist." First, an irony: Turkey calling Ocalan a "terrorist."
In 1974, Turkey, using American equipment and weapons, invaded Cyprus. Since then, Turkey has occupied 37 percent of Cyprus against all U.N. resolutions calling for the immediate withdrawal of all occupation forces.
Of course, Cyprus does not produce any petroleum — we produce potatoes. The United States was not as eager to enforce U.N. resolutions as it was to send thousands of troops to Kuwait in 1990.
Turkey's record has been the same throughout this century. In 1914, the Turks wiped out 300,000 Pontian Greeks. In 1915, 1.5 million out of a total of 2 million Armenians were killed by the Turks. This extermination was so "outstanding" that even Adolf Hitler referred to it when invading Poland in 1939.
The right of bullying is given to Turkey by the United States, which lets Turkey get away with these actions. The United States seems to consider Turkey to be its most important NATO ally after the collapse of the Soviet Union.
continually are invading Iraq to attack Iraqi-Kurds, claiming Greek islands and threatening neighboring countries, such as Syria, Greece and Cyprus.
Before sending thousands of Poles to their death, Hitler said, "Who today, remembers the extermination of the Armenians?" Hitler believed that no one would remember his crimes, and of course today everyone does. Today, however, no one remembers the extermination of the Armenians.
The Turkish government attempts to build a Turkey only for Turks. A statement made by the Turkish Minister of Justice — irony No. 2 — Mustafa Abdulhalik Bey in 1930 to the newspaper *Milayet* reflects this policy.
He said that "those who are not pure Turks have one right in this country: The right to be servants, the right to be slaves." This policy is still being carried out today, and this time the gun barrel is aiming at the Kurds. Today, Kurds are considered Turkish citizens, and their population is about 15 million. That is 20 percent of the Turkish population, yet they are not recognized as a minority. They are not allowed to have Kurdish schools, and they are not even called Kurds. They are called Mountain Turks. Not only that, but the Kurdish language is forbidden in Turkey.
The hypocrisy of the U.S. foreign policy comes into play in this situation. The United States rushes to provide safety for ethnic Albanians, ethnic Bosnians and Kuwaitis, and the only things they provide for the Kurdish issue are the equipment and weapons for Turkey.
I'll leave with another irony, published Feb. 18 by The Associated Press. It said that Turkish authorities "promised a fair trial, but refused to allow three of (Ocalan's) foreign attorneys into Turkey."
Getting back to Abdullah Ocalan, I feel sorry for him. I hope that, for his own sake, he will be sentenced to death so that he won't suffer. An indication of what Ocalan should expect can be found in photos that have been published in newspapers and on the Internet. Anyone can see Turkish soldiers proudly posing for photographs with the decapitated heads of Kurdish soldiers.
Turkish soldiers have posed for such photographs before, such as with the decapitated heads of Armenians at the start of the century. Well, at least the Turks are consistent, and they are finishing the century the way they started it.
These actions are the result of the United States being the only superpower in the world. The U.S. government interprets this as the right to violate international law and acts as it sees fit. This is why the United States is blind when it comes to Turkish atrocities and the violations of human rights.
And the show goes on.

Turkey's record against free speech and other basic human rights speaks for itself. Anyone can go to a search engine on the World Wide Web, type "Turkey human rights" and find more than enough information about Turkey's "contribution" to civilization. They will find references to imprisonment, assassination and disappearances of politicians, intellectuals and journalists.

CORRECTION
A letter on yesterday's Kansan Opinion Page by Wallace Johnson, professor of East Asian language and culture, was incorrectly edited.
the citation, "The claim that Heidegger's thinking is apolitical can not be taken seriously.
It tells us more about the limitations of those who make it than about Heildegger's views," by James Ward was omitted.

In his reply to the editorial board about the naming of the Heidegger Lecture Series, professor Johnson had intended to end his letter with a question
This final statement had been changed to read: "Whose side is the editorial board on?" The headline, "Professor questions board's loyalty," which was derived from this ending also was incorrect. The change in context was unintentional.

Grad students seeking path to success
By Chris Hopkins
Kansan staff writer
A free workshop and speech designed to help graduate students understand how to succeed in today's job market will take place this afternoon and evening.
The workshop, sponsored by the Graduate and Professional Association, starts at 11:30 a.m. at Parlors A, B and C in the Kansas Union. Maresi Nerad, director of graduate research at the University of California-Berkley will speak at 7 p.m. in the Adams Alumni Center.
Partha Mazumdar, Pittsburgh. Pa., graduate student and GPA member, said that he was looking forward to the workshop.
"It should be exciting just on a personal level just because
we've worked so hard on it," he said.
After an opening brown bag luncheon, smaller workshops will cover balancing work and family, mentorship, administration and grants, and academic and non-academic career placement.
Daphne Johnston, assistant dean of the Graduate School, said that GPA built the program initially around Nerad, who is writing a book about professional degree-holders and the paths they take in the job market.
Nerad was invited by the group because her speech, "Ph.D.'s Ten Years Later," will focus on problems GPA had been discussing.
"GPA got involved this year because they were talking about
the same concerns, like placement." Johnston said.
Johnston said the lack of teaching positions for qualified doctoral students would be addressed in Nerad's speech.
"I think it's always been a concern, but as the years have gone by, more people have been pursuing higher degrees, but there isn't a higher demand at the universities," she said.
Nerad's book and speech are based on a 25-page questionnaire that she handed out to a number of professionals 10 years after they received their doctorates.
Her findings showed that people with doctoral degrees could be successful even if they didn't get a job in the field they expected to.
Johnston said that she hoped
the speech would help students feel more secure and inspire students to succeed rather than informing students that there was a problem.
Mazumdar said that the workshop mostly would help new graduate students or undergraduates considering graduate school.
"The more advanced graduate students might already know this stuff, just picking it up along the way," he said.
Johnston said that a program with Nerad would also be held for graduate program administrators and departmental chairs, as well as faculty who mentor graduate students.
"I think she'll talk about ways those programs can assess their success," she said.

Theresa Klinkenberg, University director who handles the Coke contract, said that the administration was working on reinstalling a change machine at Stouffer Place.
Eakin said that because the University received a percentage from Coca-Cola's sales, the administration had no preference about whether students purchased beverages with KUIDs or cash.
Mitchell said that Treat America did not have plans to remove its 13 change machines at other campus buildings and residence halls.
Chris Dalbom, SHAB member and Lenexa junior, said that Coke did not profit from change machines because they were low volume and high maintenance.

Ken Stoner, director of the Department of Student Housing, said that the number of change machines on campus would decrease in the future because vending machines had the capacity to make change and because most students had new KUIDs.

Israeli air strikes hit Iranian-backed, Lebanese guerrillas
The Associated Press
Fears that Israel was about to embark on a bombing campaign kept crowds smaller than usual at the main market yesterday in Baalbek, a city of 200,000 located 60 miles north of Israel's border. Parents also kept their children home from school.
BAALBEK, Lebanon — Israeli warplanes roared overhead yesterday while Shiite Muslim fighters sealed off the remains of a former base that was destroyed by Israeli air strikes the night before.
In the northern Israeli town of Kiryat Shmona, colorful balloons decorated the shopping mall, but the residents who would have been celebrating the Jewish holiday of Purim were crowded in bomb shelters, fearing more fighting with Hezbollah Lebanese guerrillas.
The enormous fear of war that took over both sides of the border Sunday began after a roadside bomb killed Brig. Gen. Erez Gerstein and three other Israelis — including a journalist — in south Lebanon. Two rockets, fired over unidentified guerrilla wars in Lebanon, also hit an Israeli neighborhood, slightly injuring one woman.
the death of Gerstein, the highestranking Israeli officer killed in Lebanon since the 1982 Israeli invasion, prompted air strikes against the Iranian-backed Hezbollah guerrilla group.
Israel carved out a "security zone" in south Lebanon in 1985 to protect its northern settlements from attack. Hezbollah fighters are determined to force the Israelis out of Lebanon.
The Sunday night air raids did not result in casualties and the feared rocket attacks on northern Israel never materialized. No new Israeli bombing runs were reported yesterday, though sonic booms and the rumble of distant warplanes could be heard in Beirut, the capital.
Sakina Shreif, a 45-year-old mother of 11, said she expected more Israeli strikes. "Israel has not achieved its aims yet ... They want to kill people. So far, they did not," she said.
"I am not going to return home for now," said Shabshool, after her fifth-story apartment was damaged by missiles fired from Israeli warplanes.
Hala Shabshool, five months pregnant, moved with her husband and their two daughters to her parents' house in a safer neighborhood of Baalbek.
But the fear remained, especially since Israeli bombing campaigns in 1993 and 1996 killed more than 300 Lebanese civilians.
Hebzollah's second-in-command,
Sheik Naim Kassam, promised more attacks against Israeli forces and their allies.
"Targeting (Israeli) officers, soldiers and their militia allies on our occupied territory will not stop," he told reporters in Beirut, rejecting Israeli claims that Hezbollah had been seriously hurt by the air raids.
Streets were empty in Marjayout, the main town in Israeli occupied Lebanon. In several villages in the southern Bekaa Valley, residents prepared shelters and schools were closed.
Across the border in northern Israel, the army ordered residents of Kiryat Shmona into their underground shelters on Sunday night as a precaution against more rocket attacks.
Only a janitor could be found waxing the floor where a large party was planned in the town's shopping mall yesterday morning. What little activity there was took place in the supermarket, where residents hurried to stock up on supplies.
"My mother is too scared to come," said Boaz Michael, 17, checking his shopping list.
Checkout clerk Ayelet Elimelech moved the staples — bread, flour, sugar — along the conveyor belt quickly, anxious to return to the shelter where her in-laws were caring for her 9-month-old daughter.
"We can't withdraw from Lebanon, that would only make things worse," she said. "We need to be there, but we are definitely paying the price."
Military effort drives Albanians from homes as fighting continues
The Associated Press
DJENERAL JANKOVIC, Yugoslavia — Clutching red passports, four women in head scarves walked tentatively yesterday down the dirt road toward Kosovo's southern border with Macedonia.
With a glance at a male relative with stayed behind, they showed their papers to the blue-uniformed Serb police and were ushered through, some of the lucky few in recent days who escaped to safety.
Yugoslav forces have driven thousands of ethnic Albanians from their border villages in what appears to be an ominous military effort to control a strategic artery in Kosovo.
Troops and tanks have been massing at the border, and a bridge connecting Macedonia and Kosovo is mined — preparations either to prevent NATO forces from coming in, or keep diplomatic monitors and refugees from getting out.
Yesterday, refugees in the border town of Djeneral Jankovic described their flight from fighting between Serb police and the secessionist Kosovo Liberation Army.
"The Serbs drove their tanks "and around, teasing the KLA. So the KLA shot back," said farmer Ramadan Kalisi.
Rebels held a memorial Sunday to mark the event that started the war: Serb police killing 24 ethnic Albanians in retribution of the rebel slaying of two officers.
Kosovo's conflict started a year ago when Yugoslav President Slobodan Milosevic sent troops to crush ethnic Albanian rebels seeking independence. Kosovo is a poor southern province of Serbia, the dominant republic in Yugoslavia.
In a grim parallel, the KLA shot and killed a Serb police commander during fighting on the anniver

sary in Kacanik, a town nine miles from the Macedonia crossing.
Hundreds of refugees crowded the border road Sunday night, and many were denied entry into Macedonia because they lacked passports.
About 1,200 refugees have fled to Macdonald this week, with 3,000 ethnic Albanians sheltered in Djeneral Jankovic. U.N. official Fernando del Mundo said agency workers yesterday saw 500 refugees along the snow-covered mountains that line the border.
U. S. led talks on Kosovo ended inconclusively last week in Rambouillet, France, and Western powers fear scattered fighting could explode into full-fledged war before talks resume March 15.
The fighting has killed more than 2,000 people and displaced about 300,000, with the numbers expanding with the recent clashes.
As a result, Secretary of State Madeleine Albright has asked former presidential candidate Bob Dole to help push the Clinton administration's drive for a peaceful settlement in Kosovo.
Dole, who agreed to talk to the ethnic Albanians, may also go to Belgrade to try diplomacy on the Serbs.
The Rambouillet talks centered on Kosovo autonomy, with a deployment of 28,000 NATO troops, including up to 4,000 Americans, to enforce peace.

Kansas can't linger on defeats
By Kevin C. Wilson Kansan sportswriter
When Kansas men's basketball coach Roy Williams was asked to explain his team's roller-coaster ride of a season, he blamed only one person — himself.
Junior forward Nick Bradford dives for a loose ball during Kansas' loss to Iowa State Sunday in Ames, Iowa. Kansas is the No. 3 seed in this week's Big 12 Conference tournament and will play its first game on Friday night. Photo by Graham K. Johnson/KANSAN

"I've done the worst job with this basketball team than any coach has ever done in his life." Williams said. "It's a fact of life that I've had a difficult time finding the right buttons to push to get them mentally into the game."
After starting the season 12-3, the Jayhawks have dropped six of their last 13 games and finished the regular season with an un-Kansas like 19-9 record and a disappointing 11-5 mark in the Big 12 Conference.
We've used nine games to verify that."
After amassing a 98-11 record in the last three seasons, 19-9 looks like a misprint. This year's nine losses are the most for the Jayhawks since they went 19-12 in 1988-89 in Williams' first season as coach.
"At times this year we've been a very good basketball team," Williams said. "But there's other times when we haven't been very good, and anybody can beat us."
"Compared to the past couple of years, this isn't the greatest year we've had," Kansas junior Nick Bradford said. "But we've still got a lot of things to do. This season is not over."
But the regular season is, and after Sunday's heart-breaking 52-50 loss to Iowa State, so is the Jayhawks' three-game winning streak.
"Personally, I wanted to go into the tournament on a roll," Bradford said. "But we didn't. We lost. We can't dwell on this though
because it's tournament time and we've got to be able to pick up our play from here on out."
The loss dropped the Jayhawks to the No. 3 seed in this weekend's Big 12 conference tournament where they will play either Nebraska or Texas Tech in the second round on Friday night. Kansas is a combined 0-3 against its possible opponents, but Williams said it won't matter which team the Jayhawks play if they aren't mentally prepared.
Freshman guard Jeff Boschie said although the Jayhawks were frustrated right now, that he believed they can turn it around before the conference tournament.
"This team is going to fight back, and we're not going to quit." Boschee said.
Ryan Robertson and T.J. Pugh were named to the Academic All-District Seven team. This makes the players eligible to be
selected Academic All-Americans later this month.
Robertson was named the

Women'Hawks set for new start, Big 12 tournament

It's been a hectic last two weeks for the Kansas women's basketball team.
The women lost their first much-anticipated chance to give coach Marian Washington her 500th career win. Four days later, they delivered the milestone victory. After that came an overtime win at Oklahoma State and a disappointing loss at Kansas State to finish the regular season.
The Jayhawks finished 11-5 in the conference and head into the league tournament as the third seed. After a first-round bye, tomorrow at 8:30 Kansas will face the winner of today's Oklahoma. Oklahoma State game.
So there is meaning behind the cliché Washington spouted as her team prepared for the Big 12 tournament, which begins today at Municipal Auditorium in Kansas City, Mo.
The Jayhawks beat Oklahoma, 58-54. F2. 20 at Allen Fieldhouse and took care of Oklahoma State, 79-72 in overtime.
"It's a new start, a new season," she said. "We had to get the players back to a new commitment, and I think we've done that."
"Both of those teams played us very well," Washington said. "I'm confident we can beat either team."
No. 22 Kansas finished the regular season at 21-8 and is a virtual lock to make the NCAA Tournament. But motivation lies in the fact that a strong showing this week could be enough for the J Hawkys to host an NCAA Tournament game.
It should come as no surprise that Washington pointed to junior Lynn Pride as the key to her team's success. A first team, All-Big 12 selection, Pride leads with 16 points and 74 rebounds per game. Likewise, 34 players on Lynn Pride's 30 or more.
Washington said the Jayhawks had a 50-50 chance of hosting an NCAA Tournament game.

"It all starts with Lynn," Washington said. "She's a player who does everything for us, offensively and defensively. We utilize her in so many ways. We've used her all season to stop some outstanding shooters."
Kansas is 8-1 this season when Pride scores 20 or more.

Commentary
Court debate exposes flaws in NCAA's logo and advertising
An interesting debate just concluded in a Kansas City courtroom.
Here's the deal:
NCAA rule 12.5.5, called the "Use of Logo on Equipment, Uniforms and Apparel", mandates that uniform logos such as a Puma lion, can take up no more than 2/14 square inches
The NCAA is waiting to see if a Kansas City, Kan., judge will grant a temporary injunction to Addidas American, Inc. that would halt an NCAA rule restricting the use of logos on player's uniforms.
more than 2 1/4 square inches on a uniform.
So Adidas asked U.S. District Judge Thomas Van Bebber to issue an injunction that would temporarily make the rule moot. That would mean that as early as fall 1999 teams could be wearing uniforms
PETER GRAHAM
Adidas is fighting the rule, claiming the company's three stripes need more space. Company's officials also contend that individual NCAA institutions, not the NCAA, should decide how much is too much when it comes to logos.
Spencer Duncan
sports@kansan.com
It is an interesting debate and the outcome could change how uniforms look.
Adidas, obviously driven by a desire to advertise more, argued in a preliminary hearing last month that it has lost contracts and been unable to use certain uniforms because its uniforms have been shot down by the NCAA because the three strip logo was too large.
Adidas also argues that each institution should have the right to say how big a logo can be. The argument is that if a school such as the University of Kansas wants a Nike swoosh to boldly run across football players' chests, then Kansas should be allowed to let it happen.
Adidas also pointed out that the official NCAA logo is often larger than the 2 1/4 inch corporate logo, violating the NCAA's own rule.
In many ways, the fight comes down to control and who should have it: the NCAA, athletic apparel companies or the member institutions.
Adidas attorney David Alexander argued that this is a gross violation because the NCAA is not just an organization that watches over college sports. The NCAA, which makes millions in licensing and product sales, is a competitor of athletic companies.
"The NCAA is actively merchandising the NCAA." Alexander said.
While Adidas' list of complaints is extensive, NCAA attorney Dave Everson counters with a simple response as to why the NCAA opposes lifting the rule: Players could become commercial billboards.
The NCAA fears that if restrictions are lifted, players like Ryan Robertson could become walking advertisements for Burger King.
Coming from anyone else this reason for opposing the injunction would sound noble. But coming from the NCAA it is simply hypocritical.
In the 1990s, the NCAA and its member institutions have embraced advertising and corporate money as if they were life rafts.
The University of Kansas is a perfect example. It has exclusive deals with Coca-Cola and Nike, Allen Fieldhouse and Memorial Stadium are littered with advertising and even the soccer field bears the name of a corporation: SuperTarget Field.
The NCAA itself has signed deals worth billions with television networks to carry events and in return those networks have been granted television and media timeouts during basketball and football games so they can air commercials.
Every football bowl game has a corporate sponsor and when I attended the Final Four in San Antonio last year, I was appalled at the amount of advertising plastered around the arena. The advertisements far outweighed the number of signs and billboards with teams and individual participants names on them. Even the program had a sponsor.
For the NCAA to now stand up and show concern that the players could be walking billboards contradicts everything the NCAA has practiced the past 10 years.
And after all, players are the only thing not covered in advertising. Perhaps human billboards are just a natural progression.

Men's rugby team wins, prepares for next match
The Kansas men's rugby team beat the Oklahoma Sooners 17-13 Saturday in Norman, Okla.
"The forwards did most of the work, and then they passed it out to me when we got inside 10 meters," said Will Lenz, Lawrence freshman. "I got plowed by two Sooners, and I just passed it off to the closest red jersey I could see."
SPORTS BRIEFS AND SCORES
The Jayhawks were trailing 1.3-1.2 with less than five minutes remaining in the game when they began to drive the ball down the field.
That red jersey belonged to Ryan Crosby, Topeka junior, who ran it in for the score.
"I got dropped on my head, and I saw a few stars," Lenz said. "But I heard everybody cheering, and I knew something good had happened."
The Jayhawks play their home opener Saturday against Nebraska at Westwick Rugby Complex.

Unanimous picks chosen for all-Big East first team
PROVIDENCE, R.I. — Richard Hamilton of Connecticut and Tim James of Miami were the only unanimous selections to the all-Big East first team yesterday and both were repeat choices from last season.
Note: Horoscopes have no basis in scientific fact and should be read for entertainment purposes only.
Hamilton, the conference player of the year last season as a sophomore, was second in the league in scoring this season at 21.3 points per game. The 6-foot-6 forward led the Huskies, who were ranked No. 1 in the country for 10 weeks this season, to a 25-2 record and their fifth regular-season title in the last six seasons.

led the Hurricanes to their best season since joining the conference in 1991-92, a 15-3 mark that was one game behind Connecticut.
"Several tour players were out there with their wives," he said. Among them were Arnold and Winnie Palmer, who later in the day arranged for the Lowerys to move into a vacant house in Bay Hill, Hoch said.
Hemsley averaged 17.4 points this season, while Thomas led the league at 22.1. Artest averaged 14.5 points, 6.1 rebounds, 4.7 assists and 2.0 steals.
Golfer's house burns while he finishes game
The fire broke out about 2 p.m., while Lewy was on the course at the Tucson National Golf Club. At his wife's request, he wasn't told about the fire until he finished his round.
Pro golfer Scott Hoch, who went to the Lowery home after hearing of the blaze, said the family was getting support from the golfing community.
ORLANDO, Fla. — Fire destroyed the home of pro golfer Steve Lowery on Sunday while he competed in the Tucson Open.
Firefighters rescued a pet dog trapped in rubble inside the burning house.
Lowery's wife, Kathryn, 38, and their three children, ages 1, 3 and 7, escaped without injuries from the two-story house in the exclusive Bay Hill area of suburban Orlando.
Winds gusting up to 25 mph quickly pushed the flames through the 5,000-square-foot home, said Orange County Fire Rescue spokeswoman Lt. Tammy Wunderly.

Quarterback transfer looks for starting role
By Michael T. Rigg
Kansas sportswriter
Kansan sportswriter
With the status of 1998 starting quarterback Zac Wegner in the air following the effects of three concussions, Jayhawk coach Terry Allen sifted through the junior college ranks to find the answer to his quarterback quandary.
In comes Dylen Smith, a sophomore at Santa Monica Community College who idolizes Vikings quarterback Randall Cunningham
KSU
and has signed a letter of intent to play at K a n s a s. Smith guided his team to 71 points in his
last game with Santa Monica and is the best junior college quarterback available Allen said.
Smith leaves Santa Monica as the Corsairs' all-time passing leader with 2,690 yards and earned honorable mention junior college All-American honors last season.
"Dylen is a really great athlete," Santa Monica coach Robert Taylor said.
Smith can throw the football 70 yards in the air and never missed a game or a practice in his two years with the Corsairs, which impressed scouts and coaches.
"He's elusive. He's athletic. He runs a 4.5 in the 40 yard dash, which is unreal for a quarterback," said Jon Kirby, the managing editor of MO-KAN Recruiting Magazine.
Taylor, who led Smith and the Corsairs to a victory in the California junior college championship game said that Smith was a proven winner.
"Our program will really miss him, but he'll be a great asset to Kansas."
Smith's legacy with the Corsairs was left in the final game he ever played with the team. At the South Bay Classic Bowl against the El Camino College Warriors, Smith and the Corsairs fell behind 46-17 in the third quarter.
"I honestly didn't think we could come back." Smith said.
After a couple of Smith touchdown passes and a fumble return for a touchdown, the Corsairs recovered a Warrior fumble on the EI Camino 30 yard line late in the fourth quarter trailing by two points. Smith led Santa Monica the remaining distance and scored a touchdown with two seconds left winning the game 71-67.
"It was one of the most amazing football games I've ever seen," Taylor said.
Smith connected on an amazing 38 of 51 passes for 400 yards in that game en route to leading the Corsairs to 54 second-half points in what is the highest scoring regulation game ever at the junior college level.
"You can make a highlight tape for quarterbacking out of that game." Allen said.
Recruiting guru Kirby shares Allen's high sentiments of Smith.
"In a lot of ways he reminds me of Mark Williams." Kirby said.
Williams is also a junior college transfer who ranks 10th on the Kansas career passing list and led the Jayhawks to a 10-2 record in 1995.
Smith has similar lofty goals for the 1999 version of Kansas football.
"We have a lot of good players and a lot of overall talent," Smith said. "Hopefully we'll play to play in a New Year's Day bowl game."
Before Smith can end the Jayhawks' bowl game drought, he has to come in during the summer and learn the offense by the time Kansas' first game rolls around Sept. 11. Five of the seven fellow junior college recruits are already on campus and preparing for spring practice, which starts March 30.
"It shouldn't be a problem to learn the offense," Smith said. "The offense we ran in junior college was very similar."
Wegner's status is still pending more tests on the severity of his concussion, and in his absence, Allen has opened up competition for the starting quarterback position.
"He could come in and compete for that job right now," Allen said of Smith.

Women's golf takes 18th place
By Brad Hallier Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas women's golf team finished in 18th place this past weekend at the Sun Trust Lady Gator Invitational in Gainesville, Fla.
The third round of the tournament was canceled. The Jayhawks shot a two-round score of 669, 69 strokes behind team-champion Georgia.
Furman's Lindsay
Smith was the individual champion, shooting a 70 in the first round, and finishing with a total score of 144.
Senior Mandy Munsch had the total low score for Kansas, finishing in a tie for 54th place with a two-round total of 163.
Sophomore Ashley Bishop had the lowest one-round score for the Jayhawks. She shot a 79 during the second round, improving her first-round total by 15 strokes. She finished in a tie for 85th place.
Junior Susan Tessary finished in a tie for 61st place with a score of 173. Freshman Ashley Lowery shot a 174, good enough for a tie in 88th place, and junior Carrie Padden shot a 175 for a tie in 93rd place.
The Jayhawks will compete next March 12,14 at the Mountainview College tournament in Tucson, Ariz.
LSU appeals NCAA rulings
Tigers lose recruit visits, scholarships
The Associated Press
BATON ROUGE, La. — LSU avoided losing its eligibility to play in the Southeastern Conference tournament this week. But the school's recruiting violations will be punished with scholarship reductions that could keep the school out of the NCAA tournament for years to come.
An NCAA committee has agreed to let LSU play in the SEC tournament but will not return scholarships lost as a result of violations committed in recruiting former Tiger Lester Earl.
"The committee felt that on balance, the serious scholarship penalties were appropriate. The postseason ban was not appropriate since it involved young people who were not even at the university at the time of the infraction," committee spokesman Michael Slive said Sunday.
The infractions took place before Dale Brown retired as coach two years ago. None of the old coaching staff is still at LSU, and only one player remains on the team.
The ruling ensures the school will receive about $1 million in tournament money.
"It was a very large financial problem if we didn't go," athletic director Joe Dean said. "It is a great thing for our team. The appeal was worthwhile."
But coach John Brady is concerned about the effect of the penalty that stayed in place.
from that point of view."
“What I never had the idea they would do is limit you to signing four over two years,” Brady said. “That was never an assumption of the university or anyone else for that matter. We knew there would be limited scholarships, but to not be able to sign more than four players over two years makes it much more difficult.”
The school appealed the ban on post-season play this season, a limit of four new scholarships awarded during the next two years and an additional overall one-scholarship reduction for the 2001-02 season.
The punishment was imposed after an investigation uncovered several infractions, including an LSU booster's $5,000 payment to Earl to induce the former high school All-American to sign with the Tigers. Earl later transferred to Kansas.
The NCAA sanctions were added to LSU's self-imposed sanctions. They 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.
The committee announced its decision on Sunday, the day after the appeal, because of the effect on the SEC tournament, which begins in Atlanta on Thursday with LSU playing Florida. Decisions are normally released days or weeks later.
LSU said in its appeal there had never been a postseason ban placed on an institution when the NCAA hadn't found the school having a lack of institutional control.
Brady worries attrition could leave
nim short of players and unable to replace them without scholarships.
"I just want to get to the point where we are equal with everyone else and then see what we are about," Brady said. "This is just another thing we will work through and have to work through. We have to be more
POLICE
Earl: LSU still faces restrictions because of recruiting violations.
careful in our recruiting. If a player or two decides to leave for whatever reason, we won't be able to replenish the team in a normal way, but we'll work through it."
Following LSU's hearing, Brown made a lengthy appearance before the Appeals Committee about an accusation by LaWanda Earl that he helped her secure a job. The end of the meeting was reportedly punctuated with a fist-pounding thud easily heard outside the closed doors of the meeting room.
Brown would not comment on the proceedings. He did say he presented the committee with information it had not seen before. Slive said a ruling on Brown's appeal will come later.
Trade to bring 'scoring punch' to Avalanche
The Associated Press
DENVER — With the acquisition of Theorem Fleury, one of the NHL's best teams just got better.
The Colorado Avalanche, three years removed from a Stanley Cup title, regained their status as a serious Stanley Cup contender on Sunday by trading with the Calgary Flames for the high-scoring Fleury.
"The Theo Fleury will bring some additional scoring punch to our hockey club and much more," coach Bob Hartley said. "For many years in this league, he has been a proven leader and a great playoff performer."
Fleury, a 30-year-old wing, has spent his entire NHL career with the Flames, winning a Stanley Cup with the team as a rookie in 1989.
Flury, an unrestricted free agent at the end of the season, went to the Avalanche with winger Chris Dingman. The Flames received forward Rene Corbet, defenseman Wade Belak and future considerations.
Fleury's stance on free agency might explain why the Flames didn't get much in exchange for him.
He has 30 goals and 39 assists this season, ranking sixth in NHL scoring. He has said repeatedly he wouldn't sign a new contract until testing the free-agent market this summer.
While the trade immediately bolsters
the Avalanche, it hurts the Flames (21-29-10) in the short run. They are only two points behind Edmonton for the eighth and final playoff spot in the Western Conference, but now have lost their only true star.
"This was an amazing opportunity that we couldn't let go by," said Colorado general manager Pierre Lacroix.
The Flames general manager, Al Coates. agreed.
"The Colorado Avalanche are a much better team today," he said. "Theo's a great player. We're going to miss him."
Fleury, who flew into Denver on Sunday night and was met by an impromptu welcoming party of media, fans and curious passengers at Denver International Airport, said he was shocked when he was informed of the deal.
It was tough to leave Calgary, he said.
"But I tell you, I was thrilled it was Colorado. They've got a great team. I think this is a great opportunity and a great situation."
Asked if he expected to be a rent-a-player for the playoffs or planned to be with Colorado beyond this season, he said, "We'll see how it works out. My No. 1 focus is just hockey right now. The only reason why I'm here is to help this team win a Stanley Cup, and that's my intention. I don't think we need that distraction of me talking about my contract every day."
It isn't likely that Colorado will be able
to reach agreement with Fleury and also re-sign Peter Forsberg.
Lacroix said he wasn't deterred by Fleury's contract status.
hockey basis," he said. "The next few months will give us a chance to talk contract with Theo and his agent."
Fidelity's contract status.
"We made this transaction purely on a
NHL
record but have been inconsistent. They began the year with a 1-5-1 record, then later ran off a 12-game winning streak that was followed immediately by an 0-3-4 stretch.
With Fleury's acquisition, Lacroix said, "I think we have the potential to reach the ultimate this season."
Flury became the Flames' career-scoring leader last Friday. In 791 games, he has 364 goals and 466 assists for 830 points.
Earlier this year, Calgary's Cory Stillman said Fleury was by far the Flames' greatest player.
"We'll take some time to see who plays better with him," Hartley said. "We
Hurley said he hadn't decided which line Fleury would play on, but said the acquisition probably meant the breakup of the Forssberg-Joak Ski pairing that has worked well for much of this season.
"We gave up two good players and a future prospect, but that's the price you pay in this business. It's a great move."
have to give the players time to get adjusted to Theo and for him to get adjusted to us.
Sakic said Fleury would make the team better.
"I think what it really does is give us two solid lines. He's an exciting player who is great with the puck and is a sparkplug out there. Obviously, we feel that with this trade we have a great chance to win the Stanlev Cup," he said.
Right wing Adam Deadmarsh called Fleury one of the best players in the league. "One of the top 15 players, I'd say, for sure. Who wouldn't want him on their team?" he said.
Defenseman Adam Foote said Fleury would give the Avalanche two huge lines and strengthen the whole team.
"He's an offensive threat, a natural goal scorer, and he's also going to bring leadership and experience," Foote said.
Dingman, an enforcer, has played only two games this season.
Corbet, 25, has eight goals and 14 assists in 53 games but is currently sidelined with a strained hamstring. Belak, a 22-year-old prospect who was a No. 1 draft pick in 1994, had no points while appearing briefly in 22 games this season with the Avalanche. He is playing for Colorado's American Hockey League affiliate in Hershey, Pa.
Royals expect more than play from Sanchez
Infielder eases transition for Hispanic teammates
The Associated Press
HAINES CITY, Fla. — The Kansas City Royals know Rey Sanchez is good with the glove. But the 31-year-old infielder knows the Royals are looking for something else from him as a player.
Sanchez freely admits one of the big reasons he was brought to Kansas City was because of his heritage, that of a Spanish-speaking veteran who could help ease the transition of talented Hispanic players looking to make their mark on U.S. baseball.
"That's exactly what I see myself doing this year." Sanchez said. "That's one of the reasons that Tony (Muser) brought me here."
R
Royals
Muser hopes Sanchez, who is expected to take over shortstop from Mendy Lopez, will play a big role in the emergence this season of the team's expected starting second baseman. Carlos Fobles
Sanchez is one of 10 players in the Royal's camp who was born in Latin American countries. And that does not include pitcher Jose Rosado, who was born in New Jersey but grew up in Puerto Rico.
For all of them, coming to the United States posed some difficulties.
Sanchez arrived from Puerto Rico at age 16 to attend high school in Morgan Hill, Calif., as an exchange student.
"It took me six months to learn the language," he said. "All of my classes were billing."
Lopez arrived from the Dominican Republic four years ago at age 19.
"It was tough," Lopez said. "I was crying every day because I missed my family and everything. But this is your career. You've got to deal with it.
"People don't know how tough it is for Latin players. You become afraid. Say something wrong, and everybody will laugh at you."
Not only are Latin players concerned with absorbing a different language and culture, there's the other matter of learning baseball.
"You have to think two times," Dominican pitcher Dario Veras said. "What did the coach say, and how do I do it?"
The Royals, at their development camp at Salcedo in the Dominican Republic, have English classes for their players. But nothing speeds up the process as much as spring training.
That means that helping young players like Febles and Carlos Beitran adapt to big-league baseball and the United States is part of Sanchez's job description.
"I think he has the experience to do that." Muser said. "He's got a very young second baseman to work with. I don't know if he's ever considered himself to be a leader, but the demand of leadership is going to be asked of Rey."

Nick Collison stretches out in the basement while watching game tapes before the district playoff game.
For highly-touted Iowa recruit, stardom comes with the territory but doesn't go to his head
Story by Mike Harrity • Photos by Augustus Anthony Piazza
Nick Collision concentrates while boxing out his opponent.
LAND 44
The muffled sound of rapper Busta Rhymes' Dangerous fills the Iowa Falls High School gymnasium as the bar
ketball team goes through warm-up drills less than an hour before tipoff last Wednesday night.
While his teammates assemble in two lines — some going to the basket for a layup, others pulling jumpers — Nick Collison prepares to sign his name.
A middle-aged man has just nudged his twin daughters toward Collison, who is standing at half court. The twins' outstretched right hands, clutching the photocopied rosters handed out at the door, barely reach past the knees of the 6-foot-9 Collison.
Collison's mom, Judy, complete with a photo button of her son dribbling up court attached to her shirt, is standing near the top of the bleachers, having already laid out a few coats to save seats for family and friends. About a third of the town's 6,000 people will pack the gym on this night — some to see the No.1 team in Class AA, most to see Collison, the team's best player and one of the top high school players in the country.
Collison takes the pen, signs the rosters, pats each girl on the head, grips a basketball, jokes a visualized defender and takes a 15-foot jump shot. Swish.
As Collison continues warming up, three photographers standing behind the basket follow his every move. Dads point him out to their sons.
This fall, when the college basketball season begins, the scene will be different for Collison. The hoopla will only be magnified.
Collison, who has signed a letter of intent with Kansas, will play his first game in Allen Fieldhouse. Judy and the rest of the Collison family will be secure in seats behind the bench.
Below:
Nick Collison hangs from the rim after slam dunking two of his 24 total points in Wednesday night's Iowa Class AA District Tournament game.
For the next hour and a half, though, the only thing on Collison's mind is the Iowa Class AA District Tournament game against the Gilbert Tigers.
Eyes are fixed on Collison as he listens to the closing instructions from his dad, David, who is the Iowa Falls coach. Once again, the court is the stage, and Collison is the leading man.
"All the attention and stuff is a little crazy," Collison, 18, says later. "But I guess I'm getting used to it."
.
Nick Collison doesn't believe the hype. This may be surprising, considering the seemingly endless attention he has received during the past two years. His tone remains calm and controlled when discussing a typical dav last spring.
"Yeah, Tubby called here," Collison says. "He was cool, but I really wasn't into what they're doing." Tubby is Tubby Smith, Kentucky's coach, who won a national championship last year.
The college basketball scene's microscope tight ened its focus soon after the end of Collison's sophomore year in 1996. That's when the transformation began from the tall, skinny kid — 6 foot-7, 200 pounds — Collison now laughs at when watching a high highlight tape to the 6 foot-9, 225 man he is now. During this time, the wave
35
of imminent basketball stardom has taken him to play in places like the Dominican Republic and Las Vegas and has delivered him to national prominence.
Collison was one of 20 players selected to play in this year's McDonald's All-American High School Basketball Game scheduled March 24 at Hilton Coliseum in Ames, Iowa
Still, he doesn't buy into it. Collison often types his name into Internet search sites and sees what comes up. He mentions, but doesn't talk much, about the various Kansas Jayhawk's fan sites, where people christen him as the struggling team's savior. He doesn't talk much about how Bob Gibbons, one of the most prominent college basketball recruiting experts in the nation, rates him as the country's second-best high school player in the country.
Collison is quicker to talk about what he saw on his computer just a couple of days ago when he typed in his name. "One of those recruiting services had me ranked something like the 413th player in the country," Collison says. "If that doesn't wake you up, man. That's why I don't take too much from stuff like that. I just keep working."
Mike Lindeman, a teammate and good
Mike Lindeman friend of Collison, sees no change in his childhood friend.
"He could be real cky about it, but he's just one of us," said Lindeman, whose sister Joie is the girlfriend of former Kansas basketball player Raef LaFrentz. "He works harder than almost anyone I know."
Gail Knights, a barber in downtown Iowa Falls.
Nick Collison plays Connect Four with his younger brother Michael Collison.
"Nick'll be sitting over there in the corner, reading a paper or something, and guys will come in asking. 'What do you know about this Collison kid? Is he any good?'" Knights said "And Nick will just keep reading, not even look up. And I'll say, 'There he is over there, ask him.' He hasn't let any of it to go his head."
Collision liked Kansas as soon as Williams began recruiting him last March. Collison was

has been cutting Collison's hair since the family moved there after Collision finished seventh grade. Collison rarely talks much about his basketball exploits while getting a close trim. Except for a couple of weeks ago, when he told his barber of more than five years that he really needed a good hair cut because, after all, he had to take a photo for the McDonald's game program. "I said to him, 'And what, all the others weren't that good?' Knights said.

It's 7 p.m. last Wednesday, right before tipoff, and everyone in the gym is standing. Some remove their hats. The Iowa Falls team assembles in front of its bench, ready for the National Anthem to be sung. Soon after the choir group begins, Nick Collision accidentally drags his right foot. The screech from his sole rubbing the polished hardwood floor drowns out the choir for the longest instant. A "Shhhhhh" is heard from the crowd. Even now, Collision is the center of attention. His grandfather, Arden, sitting a couple of rows in front of Judy, can't see over the mob of standing fans as the referees prepare to
toss the opening tip. "I come to watch Nick, and I can't see see the court because of all these people." Arden Collison says. "I guess I'll just see him on the news later."
drawn to the laid-back demeanor of Williams and his staff.
"Coach Williams is down to earth," Collison said. "You just feel comfortable with him. Like whenever I go down there, we'll just sit in his office and watch football and talk and stuff like that."
On Duke coach Mike Krzyzewski's visit to the Collison home, he flashed his two national championship rings. It still wasn't enough for Collison.
Duke started recruiting Collison late in the process, last July. He still considered becoming a Blue Devil because "Well, they're Duke," Collison said. "Both Kansas and Duke just play basketball — man-to-man defense, motion offense. I think that's the kind of system I would do well in. They're both national programs and are going to be traveling all over and playing big games. I want that."
"Coach K can get you psyched up about stuff, but Duke is just a little different than what I'm used to," he said. "Really, if Duke never would have started recruiting me, it would have been Kansas without a doubt. I like Lawrence a lot, and I just feel comfortable there." On Collison's September visit, he hung out with
some of the Kansas basketball players. He went with Ryan Robertson, Jeff Boschee and Eric Chenwolty to MTV's LoveLine show at the Lied Center. The fun he had going out with his future teammates made his decision to come to Kansas all the easier.
"The players are real cool, I get along with all of the funniest guys I've ever met. They're fun to hang out with, and I'm looking forward to it this fall."
.
The game against Gilbert is well in hand as the remaining seconds of the first quarter fall off the game clock. Gilbert employs a suffocating defensive tactic on Collison, limiting his offensive game. When Collision posts up a defender, an opposing guard stands facing Collison, with his arms held high, shadowing his every move, attempting to shield Collision from the ball. It doesn't work long. Iowa Falls jumps out to a 19-5 lead on nearly perfect perimeter shooting, then Collision scores his first basket. Iowa Falls point guard Mike Roefs drives, then bounces a pass to Collision, who is standing alone under the basket. Collision elevates, holding the ball with two hands that are now at least a half of a foot above the rim, and drops the ball through.
Collison's cat-like quickness around the basket allows him to score at will when he's not draped by two and three defenders. And defense, yeah, he can do that too. About midway
through the second quarter, Collision stands along the lane, anticipating the flow of the Gilbert offense. A Gilbert player is free in the corner, beyond the three-point line. Collision sees this, and with one long stride, leaps toward the shooter. He shoots. Collision stakes the ball into the stands. Just one of Collision's numerous blocks on the night, Iowa Falls, 21-0 this season, wins by an average score of 81-39. Collision averages 23 points and 12 rebounds a game, though he says, "I should be getting more." All this despite only playing an average of about 22 of the game's 32 total minutes. With 5-37 remaining in the game, Collision sits down. He's through for the night. He finishes with 24 points and eighbors. Iowa Falls wins 82-46.
After the game, there's a brief ceremony on the court honoring the McDonald's game selection. Cookies and punch await in the student center outside the gym doors while two TVs roll the ESPN clip of Collison making the All-American team. When the McDonald's representatives are done with the presentation of a basketball and commemorative T-shirts, they toss mini basketball into the crowd. This is the most excited Nick's 8-year-old brother Michael has been all night. Michael Collison doesn't enjoy his brother's games. "I don't really like them, so when I get bored I tell my mom and sometimes she gives me money to go buy candy," he says. "So that's about the best part."
The people from McDonald's don't throw a mini basketball Michael Collison's way. Michael is disappointed.
.
He's the only one.
Collision, still in disbelief, is watching a tape of a game played a few weeks ago when an opposing player yanked his shorts down and subsequently ran off the court cheering.
"He had his hands on my waist when I got the ball," Collison said. "Then I faked, and he just pulled them down. I was just like, what the hell are you doing?"
Local television stations made the clip a common occurrence on the evening news, and friends of the Collison's began calling from Denver. Houston and South Dakota.
"They all said they had seen it on CNN," Collison said. "That's pretty crazy to be on CNN for something like that."
Along with his mom and dad, Collision went to the Kansas game against Iowa State Sunday in Ames, Iowa, which is a 45-minute drive from their home. After witnessing the 52-50 Kansas loss, Collison said, "That won't happen next year."
Collison doesn't expect losses or anyone pulling down his shorts in any game he's playing for Kansas in the coming years.
And when asked if he's thought about running through the rain shower of cheers that first time at Allen Fieldhouse, Collision becomes silent. Then he takes a door breath.
Then he takes a deep breath.
"That will be a rush," he says. "All the great people that have played there. The crowd atmosphere. I've never played in front of a crowd that big before. I've thought about it a lot. But there's going to be nothing like actually doing it."

The Lawrence City Commission primary election last night narrowed the field of candidates from nine to six, with all but Paul Matthew Bryant, David McKinzie and G. Wayne Parks advancing to the April 6 general election.
Lawrence residents could vote for three candidates. Three city commissioners, Bonnie Augustine, Bob Moody and John Nalbandian are not seeking reelection.
Rundle, membership services coordinator and newsletter editor for Community Mercantile, 901 Mississippi St., said he had mixed feelings about last night's results.
brenda McFadden, C.P.A. and owner of McFadden & Associates, came out as the front runner to win a commission seat in the April election. McFadden captured 2,904 votes out of 15,344 total votes cast.
"I'm extremely surprised and thrilled by the outcome," McFadden said. "I'm happy with my broad-based support. I think people have responded to my open-mindedness and fairness approach to government."
better job of letting voters know that there are clearer choices."
McFadden said she was facing a pile of tax returns at her office at 825 Vermont St., leaving her little time to devote to the campaign during the next few weeks.
"I'm pleased on one hand, but of course I'm concerned," Rundle said. "I think I need to do a
James R. Henry, retired associate placement director for the University of Kansas, came in a close second, only 118 votes behind McFadden.
"I'm delighted," Henry said. "The people who have been supporting me have been outstanding, I'm going to be trying to meet as many people as I can and asking their opinions about where they'd like us to be in the next couple years."
Dunfield, architect for Glenm Penzler Living-
good Architects, 1001 New Hampshire St., said
The race for the final city commission seat may be a heated one between third and fourth place candidates Mike Rundle and David Dunfield. Rundle came in only 69 votes ahead of Dunfield.

White editorial garners Top-100 honors
Kansan staff writer
By Chris Hopkins
William Allen White, the namesake of the University of Kansas School of Journalism, had a piece listed on the Top 100 examples of 20th century American journalism.
White was one of the most influential journalists in the Midwest during his four decades running the Emporia Gazette. The editorial, "To an Anxious Friend," which placed 82nd, received a Pulitzer Prize in 1922.
Mary Turkington, president of the William Allen White Foundation wasn't surprised at the nomination.
"He was a great country editor whose reputation became world renowned," she said.
Topping the list was John Hersey's "Hiroshima," a story told from the perspective of six survivors of the atomic bomb, which filled an entire issue of The New Yorker.
The list was released by the journalism program at New York University, and voters included its faculty and a panel of other experts including David Brinkley and George Will.
Other journalists on the list were Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein, Edward R. Murrow, Tom Wolfe, W. E. B. DuBois, Norman Mailer, Hannah
Arendt, Truman Capote, John Steinbeck, Ernest Hemingway, Betty Friedan, Ralph Nader, A. J. Liebling, Murray Kempton, Ernie Pyle, H. L. Mencken, Walter Cronkite, J. Anthony Lukas, Joseph Mitchell, Jane Kramer and Hunter S. Thompson. Associated Press photographs from World War II and Vietnam also were included in the Top 100.
Mitchell Stephens, chairman of the NYU department of journalism, said he got the idea for the list from top-100-of-the-century lists in other areas.
"I thought that in some ways it was even more important in our field," he said.
Stephens said while a lot of people made up their own lists of top literature or music, very few did the same for journalism. One of the purposes of the list was to show journalism students good examples, he said.
He said that White was on the list because of the impact and quality of his writing and because White was symbolic of the important small-town journalism to which he devoted his life.
"I probably would have placed him higher if it were my own list," he said.
"I thought it would not only be fun but also useful." Stephens said.

No one questions it in calm days, because it is not needed. And the reverse is true also; only when

ness of life will go forward if only men can speak in whatever way given them to utter what their hearts hold-by voice, by posted card, by letter, or by press. Reason has never failed men. Only force and repression have made the wrecks in the world.
Professors claim racial, sexual discrimination in suit
Kansan staff writer
By Chris Hopkins
Two KU professors claiming racial and sexual discrimination have filed a lawsuit against the ecology and evolutionary biology department.
Ray Plierotti and Cynthia Annett, assistant professors of ecology and evolutionary biology who are married and have been at the University since 1992, are seeking $400,000 for civil-rights violations. Plierotti also is an assistant professor of environmental studies
Annett said that they were discriminated against in several specific instances as a direct reaction against their beliefs.
Pierotti is a member of the Comanche nation and one of eight Native-American members in the KU faculty.
Pierotti said he and Annett had been targets of discrimination because they opposed a change in department policy that they thought would hurt minority recruitment.
Thomas Taylor, chairman of the ecology and evolutionary biology department, said he could not comment on the lawsuit because it was a personnel issue.
"We feel that these actions are, at heart, reactions against us for our actions in minority recruitment," she said.
"KU officials do not agree with the allegations made in this suit," he said. "However, because it is a personnel matter, I cannot discuss details of the case. Those details will be the subject of a University response in the forum selected by the complainants, the courts."
Tom Hutton, director of University Relations, issued a prepared official statement.
The suit was filed at the U. District Court in Kansas City, Kan., in late February. Evidence will be presented within the month, and the trial should begin sometime next year.
Annett said that she was denied tenure for her stance against the department policy change and that she thought her qualifications were equal to those of the white male candidates who had received tenure.
Pierotti cited two specific instances of discrimination, the first of which involved unequal resources.
She said that now she was working with a termination notice and would be fired if she did not pass her tenure review.
"My laboratory research station was removed," he said. "This was done while I was out of town. I'm the only faculty member in my department without research space."
Annett, who is not Native American, said her husband's ethnicity was an important factor in their decision to come to the University.
Pierlot said that some of his students' work was destroyed in the process and that despite the department official's claim that there wasn't enough room, he thought the space his station used to occupy wasn't being used.
"The reason we came here was because of our desire to work with Haskell and the Native-American community," she said.
Annett said she had heard other stories of women being discriminated at the University and wanted to bring them to light during the trial.
"We're in it because there's a suspicion of a wider problem here," she said.
Annette said she and her husband weren't just suing for compensation.
"I look forward to the opportunity to hear other stories from around the University," Annett said.

Two crimes questioned for racial motivation
By Katie Burford
Kansan staff writer
following two recent crimes that were offensive to students, KU authorities find it difficult to determine whether they were intentionally motivated by hate.
An African-American resident who lives McColum Hall had a note with a racial slur slid under his door last month. Last weekend, an Asian-American resident who lives in Oliver Hall had a swastika burned onto his door. Although the KU Public Safety Office is investigating the incidents, officials don't know if the crimes were racially motivated.
To prove that a crime was provoked by hate, police have to determine the motivation of the person who committed the offense, said Sgt. Troy Malen of the KU Public Safety Office.
Mailen said two other Oliver Hall residents' doors were defaced the same night the swastika appeared.
"We have to consider that it may have been a random act of vandalism," Mailer said.
The residents who lived in the other rooms were Caucasian, and the markings on their doors were illegible, Mallen said.
Fred McElhenie, associate director at the Department of Student Housing, said he didn't consider the two incidents to be an indication of a rise in racial tensions at the University of Kansas.
"At the moment we think it's a random event," he said.
Ten core volunteer members comprise the Diversity Peer Education Team, which offered forums on topics related to diversity.
McElhenie said the number of crimes motivated by racial hatred was relatively low given the significant portion of minorities who live in student housing.
But he said sensitivity remained a priority for the Department of Student Housing officials.
Gloria Flores, associate director of the Office of Minority Affairs, advised a team of students that was involved in providing these programs.
McElhenie said that resident assistants were given special training in diversity and that they were required to provide their residents with programs that addressed diversity. Race, sex, culture and sexual orientation are among the issues in these programs.
Flores said the purpose of the team was to promote understanding among groups and to diffuse tensions before they escalated.
"I don't think any community as large as KU is going to be entirely free of discrimination." she said.
Flores said she thought the recent occurrences on campus most likely were isolated incidents.
Two other crimes occurred in 1998 that police thought may have been motivated by hate, Mailen said.
On Nov. 9, 1998, the McCollum Hall room of two African-American students was broken into and a checkbook and $300 was stolen.
'the checkbook appeared later in the day in a men's bathroom sink. One of the checks had a racial slur written on it, and it was taped to the mirror.' The owner of the checkbook was the same individual who received a racial message under his door last month.
The other crime occurred Nov. 1, 1998 when an anti-homosexual message was scrawled on a Gay and Lesbian Academic and Staff Advocates poster.

board by the deadline, which would have been Monday.
"The chancellor and I haven't had a chance to talk about it yet," he said.
But Shulenburger said Monday the Regents had moved the deadline to June because some universities were having trouble meeting the March 1 date. He said there had been no decision yet on the University's part to approve the calendar.

Mary Burg, executive assistant to the chancellor, confirmed that the deadline had been moved back.

Police find KU student unconscious in Hashinger
A KU student was taken to Lawrence Memorial Hospital after police found her unconscious in her room at Hashinger Hall about 6 p.m. yesterday, said Sgt. Randy Kern of the KU Public Safety Office.
He said police were called because the student was breaking things in her room and refused to answer the door. Kem said that when an officer arrived, he used a key to enter the room and found the student lying on the floor.
The women regained consciousness after medical personnel arrived, he
said. She told police that she had gotten a bloody nose because she was upset and had fainted.
Kern said he returned to Hashinger with the woman when she was released from hospital about 7 p.m. She was not found to have any injuries other than the bloody nose, he said.
A window that was broken in the student's room is being investigated as possible criminal damage to property, he said.
The student did not tell police why she had been upset.

Kansas City may get first woman mayor
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Businesswoman Kay Waldo Barnes and mayor pro tem George Blackwood will face off in Kansas City's mayoral general election March 30.
Waldo Barnes captured the most votes in last night's primary election with 15,208, or 29 percent. Blackwood had 13,065 votes or 25 percent.
If Waldo Barnes is elected, it will be the first time Kansas City has had a female mayor. The last time a woman made it past the primary was in 1975, when councilwoman Sarah Snow lost to incumbent Mayor Charles Wheeler.
"It's very exciting for me," said Waldo Barnes about being the second woman to advance to the general election. "I feel ready for the challenge."
Another local businesswoman, Janice Ellis, had the third-highest vote total with 11,206. Behind Ellis were city councilman Jim Glover, community activist Clay Chastain and businessman Ed Moody.
Blood test can reduce colon cancer death rate
NATION
WASHINGTON — A simple screening test for blood in the bowel can reduce the death rate from colon cancer by up to one third, the second leading cause of cancer death in the United States, a study says.
The finding, to be published today in the Journal of the National Cancer
Institute, is prompting a national campaign to encourage people older than 50 to take the test because they account for most of the 56,000 U.S. colon cancer deaths each year.
Minnesota researchers monitoring the health of 46,000 volunteers since 1976 have found that those who take the fecal occult blood test each year have a 33 percent lower risk of death from colon cancer than people who do not take the test. Those tested every other year have a 21 percent reduced rate of colon cancer death.

Eight tourists murdered in Ugandan rain forest
KAMPALA, Uganda — Eight tourists tracking rare mountain gorillas were killed and six others were rescued after being kidnapped by Rwandan rebels. An American survivor said yesterday that the rebels brutally hacked some victims to death with machetes.
In Washington, State Department spokesman James Foley said two Americans were murdered as they were being marched away by their captors. The remaining six victims were killed the same way, he said.
Mark Ross, a tour operator and Arkansas-born pilot who has spent years in Africa, told reporters the rebels rounded up tourists from several jungle camps in southwestern Uganda. Ross said he was taken captive but was freed later with a political message from the rebels.
Foley said the victims could not be identified until their relatives were notified. The six released hostages were returned to Kampala and taken to a safe location, he said.

Parks, who is a retired manager from Goodyear Tires, said he was upset but not surprised by the primary results.
"Iam disappointed that my broader concerns may not be addressed," Parks said. "But I am not surprised because I was warned that the odds would be very great. I'm disappointed because I could have used the $3,000 to help others as my late wife, Mildred, and I always have."

Panel addresses Native stereotypes
By Dan Curry
Kanson staff writer
When people watch the Dallas Cowboys play the Kansas City Chiefs, or watch children play cowboys and Indians, or see a person play around as a Native American at this year's Late Night with Roy Williams, they're seeing negative stereotypes thriving in U.S. culture.
"Most of these proverbial stereotypes are manufactured racist images that prevent millions of Americans from understanding the past and current authentic human experience of the First Nations peoples," said Cornel Peewardy, assistant professor of teaching and leadership. Peewardy spoke to about 80 people at last night's Diversity Dialogue held at the Kansas Room in the Kansas Union
The dialogue explored how mascots and other stereotypes of Native Americans affected their self-image.
"The mascot issue, though it may seem trite to some, or trivial, it has its roots in racism and cultural imperialism," said Raven Heavy Runner, president of First Nations Student Association. "It affects not only us Native people but our children."
Heavy Runner was part of a panel that lead the discussion. Stereotypes of Native Americans were so prevalent when Heavy Runner grew up that as a child he told people he was a Filipino, he said.
Laurie Ramirez, Lawrence senior, and Josh Arce, Lawrence junior, also were on the panel.
Arce said he remembered being asked
what he thought of the Cleveland Indians and the Atlanta Braves playing in the World Series.
"I guess I didn't feel so bad. I was young," he said. "But it perpetuates a stereotype."
That stereotype had an edge Ace felt even in grade school as he walked toward his uncle's car in a downtown Lawrence parking lot.
"Two Caucasian girls pulled up in their little red sports car," he said. "This girl turned right around and looked at me in the eyes and said, 'It's locked, armed and secured.'
The stereotypes of Native Americans were created by negative images of Native Americans, Arce said.
"We're resilient people, and we've been through a lot of adversity" he said. "Using a picture is like taking away all the history and everything that has been positive in the culture."
Arce said Native Americans needed to do more than protest racist practices in the culture. He said they needed to become their own teachers, doctors and lawyers, as well.
"For us to be justly viewed, we're going to have to start writing our own history books." Arce said.
Ramirez said a group of students and faculty at the University of Kansas were encouraging local institutions to stop using negative images of Native Americans.
The Multicultural Resource Center, the All-Scholarship Hall Council and the KU Coalition Against Racism sponsored the dialogue.

Senate to consider poll-operation bill
Fund to pay for ballots salaries, KUID readers
By Nadia Mustafa
Kansan staff writer
Some student senators are opposed to using student fees to rent KUID readers for the Student Senate elections in April.
A large portion of the funds, $1,920, would pay for ballots and poll workers' salaries, while the remaining $800 would end up in the hands of the administration as rental fees for four readers.
Student Senate will consider a bill tonight to provide the elections commission with $2,720 in student fees to operate polling sites at Gertrude Sellards-Pearson Hall, Corbin Hall and Ekdahl Dining Commons.
The administration agreed yesterday to foot $2,055 of the $2,855 rental fee for the readers during the elections.
The administration's portion of the bill would pay for wiring and installation, while students would have to pay the $800 rental fee and a possible $25 network activation fee.
Lindy Eakin, associate provost, said the administration would purchase four readers for $4,000 and rent them to the elections commission in April. He said the student body had partial responsibility in financing the use of
readers because the elections were student-oriented.
"The question is about what's reasonable," Eakin said. "We'll pay for the infrastructure, and they'll pay out-of-pocket costs. This is a partnership."
He said the administration would incur additional costs to facilitate the use of readers duri-
big Senate elections such as the cost of maintaining the new readers and about $800 for the installation of eight additional dial-in modem connections in the computer center.
Eakin said the administration would use the new readers as back-up

machines or provide them to other groups on a temporary basis in the future.
"This is the kind of thing we wanted to use the KUIDs for," he said. "It gives a technical solution to an operating problem we've always had that was enormously time-consuming."
In addition to the four readers that the elections commission will rent from the administration, it will borrow two readers from the Department of Student Housing and two from the KU Card Center to operate all eight campus polling sites.
Matt Dunbar, holdover senator, said students should not have to pay for readers. He said this was another example of the difficulties associated with the Smartcard system.
"I'd prefer not to spend student money, and instead look to other alternatives to find funding from sources that have more to do with the change (in the KUID system)." Dunbar said.
Amanda Weinberg, elections commissioner, said she was satisfied with the amount of funding the administration had decided to contribute. She said the administration viewed the use of readers as a cost the elections commission would have to incur every year, similar to other operational costs such as hiring poll workers.
Weinberg said the readers would prevent double voting and provide an electronic activity report documenting which students voted at what time and at which polling site. She said the information would make it much easier to gauge statistics and more effectively plan for future elections.
- Senate also will consider a resolution recognizing Marian Washington and Roy Williams for years of dedication and self-sacrifice on behalf of the University and its students.
In addition, Senate will review bills to finance a speaker sponsored by Students for a Free Tibet, KU Filmworks, the International Association of Students in Business and Economics regional conference, and Working Against Violence Everywhere.
Senate will meet at 6:30 p.m. at the Jayhawk Room in the Kansas Union.

Recreation center petition needs 1,000 student signatures, support
The Student Recreation Task Force will finish circulating a petition this week that is the first step in adding a new recreational center to campus. The center would be financed through an increase in student fees beginning in Fall 2000.
Whether a student supports this addition and the increase in student fees, the issue needs to be placed on April's election ballot for a student vote.
The task force still needs about 300 signatures to reach the 1,000 needed to place the issue on the ballot. The petition is worded neither in favor of nor against the new recreation center.
Students may sign the petition from 7 to 9 p.m. through Thursday at Robinson, and from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. through Friday at the Student Senate office, 410 Kansas Union.
Scott Kaiser, student body vice presi
The proposal would require student backing before earning a spot on the April ballot.
dent, said that after the petition is passed, more detailed information would be provided, and those signing the petition would benefit from immediate updates by e-mail, mail or phone.
Preliminary plans for the center specified on the petition include four gymnasium courts, a fitness and weight center, a track, a rock climbing wall, a combative arts room, an activities lounge, locker rooms and a student service center. The center would be open an average of 18 hours a day for student use only and not for educational purposes.
men and sophomores. Freshmen would pay $128 in increased fees during two years, and sophomores' fees would increase $30 for the 2000-01 school year. This year's freshmen would be able to use the center when it opens in Spring 2002.
Kaiser said juniors and seniors still should sign the petition because they can have input in what their campus looks like in the future.
If supported by KU students following the April vote, the proposal would need the chancellor's endorsement before the proposal goes to the Kansas Board of Regents. The Legislature then would need to give final approval.
A substantial addition, such as a recreational center, needs to have strong student support. To determine whether such support exists, it is essential to take the first step and sign the petition.

Overhaul needed for counsel statute
In the wake of the president's impeachment and acquittal, the independent counsel statute established after Watergate seems to be on its last legs. Unless renewed by the Senate Governmental Affairs Committee by June 30, the statute will expire.
Although few on Capitol Hill are eager to fight for its renewal, the debate concerning the independent counsel law is important. Since its inception in 1978, the law has been a source of contention. The debate has grown to deafening proportions, after many watched Kenneth Starr spend nearly $50 million and six years investigating the president. Despite this exorbitant expenditure, Congress needs to ensure that the statute survives, albeit with a few changes.
Future investigators need to avoid endless, costly inquiries.
Many are calling for scrapping the statute completely, but this would be unwise. Major changes need to be made, but the law remains important.
After Watergate, many people agreed that something needed to be done to curb possible presidential abuses. In theory, the independent counsel is crucial in the system of checks established to maintain good governance. Practically, the problems that plague the independent counsel can be fixed by a series of measures.
gress can put on an investigator's expenditures. Congress also must be accountable for how much is spent.
Further, Congress needs to be able to limit the counsel to investigating what is set forth by the congressional mandate. Rather than conducting wandering investigations in search of wrongdoing, there needs to be a clear directive concerning what that wrongdoing might be. Investigations also should be limited to issues that directly impact the presidency.
Any decision reached by Congress cannot be conceived hastily. Born out of concern about partisan bickering, the debate must not revert back to what has started it. Congress must seek to fix this important statute, not scrap it.
There needs to be some limit that Con-

An intricately woven, yet unflinchingly honest tale will reveal this tooth, I mean truth.
Broaden your mind: Today's quote "Wisely, and slow. They stumble that run fast." —William Shakespeare
Pain is the true product of procrastination.

For example, it did not take long for the cavity to develop politics. Each of the cavitoids already has split off into one of two distinct party affiliations; the Rootcanalers or the Dentaldevastators.

Little life forms, or, cavi-toids — as I have named them — have invaded my lower-left molar. They have become intelligent and collectively have formed a society, which I call a cavity. Time and my own procrastination have allowed this cavity to expand and become complex.
Putting off dentist visit proves painfully costly

Although the two parties disagree on foreign tooth policies, cavitoid taxation and almost everything else, ironically enough, both are working toward the same goal: complete tooth erosion.
Along with politics, the cavitoids already have discovered a mind-altering, short-in-supply yet high-in-demand drug: enamel. Enamel is all the rage, and cavitoids fight each other constantly to obtain just a taste of the drug.
If you have general questions or comments,

or call 864-4924.
Although enamel often comes between friends and family, it serves a definite purpose in the cavity. When hyped up on enamel, the cavitoids go into hideous, hallucinogenic tooth-eating frenzes. This, of course, is essential to the prosperity and development of the cavity, for its main goal is always: complete tooth erosion.
If I were to guess, I would say that I've had this society, I mean cavity, for oh...about a year. I'm pretty sure my dentist located it sometime around last March — I have not been able to taste with the left side of my tongue since last March.
During that meeting, he told me that the tooth looked pretty ugly and that it was imperative that I set up an appointment for a filling within a week or two.
Then there is the issue of cavitoid property rights. I'm sure that the prime real estate — reserved solely for high cavital leaders and members — lies deep inside the tooth, buried and far away from the crown's coastal toothpaste and water torrents. Perilous, coastal real estate usually is reserved for expendable cavitoids, such as little rebel, trouble-making cavitoids or old, dysfunctional cavitoids.
Needless to say, there is constant strife and civil discontent within the cavity, within the tooth, but once again, ultimately, all of the cavitoids share the same goal: complete tooth erosion.
That hot afternoon last July, I lay uncomfortably in an air-conditioned dentist's office, surrounded by a nurse on my right — she wore an unsoothing and annoying smile, a blinding light directly in front of me — it created an unending display of colorless, flashing blotches — and a dentist on my left picking at my teeth while citing tooth numbers and humming melodies, off-key, to songs I didn't like.
Cavitoids have gone a step further and have constructed pain networks — named after the almighty Pain — throughout my body. Every time I accidentally chew food on the left side of
Politics, drugs and civil discontent all signal the existence of a developed, complex society. But there is one essential aspect of such a society that has not yet been mentioned. I believe the cavitoids have elected a leader. Furthermore, I believe this leader's name is Pain.
The cavitoids do whatever Pain tells them to. Under Pain's direction, the cavitoids have capitalized on the window I have given them — because of my putting off going to the dentist—and have established a stronghold on the nerves that surround my molar.
my mouth — threatening the cavity's existence, of course — the cavitoids, in unison, jump up and down on the nerves below my tooth, sending jolting impulses of pain to my jaw and throughout my entire body. Just as I begin to break down into a whimpering, pathetic state of tears and moaning, the cavitoids let up and continue with the business of maintaining their society.
What could I say to this man? He was right. I had put it off for too long. I was a fool. Although he didn't quite put it that way, that is what he meant.
But I was busy with school and other things. I put it off and didn't manage to make it back to his office until early July. Big mistake. Big cavity.
Not far into the check-up I heard a familiar, low moan of dismay — my dentist had discovered the now fully developed society, I mean cavity, inside my molar. Then came the sugar-coated, verbal equivalent of "I told you so."
"Hmmm. Hmmm. OK...jokes as if No. 8 on the lower palette has deteriorated significantly since the last cleaning," he said. He pulled back and dropped the mask from his face. "It would have been a lot easier if we would have taken care of this earlier. At this point, you're going to need a root canal."
"You're kidding, right?" I said.
"I wish I were," he replied.
Now here it is, March again, and Pain is getting old and less tolerant of my slips. If Pain even thinks that I'm about to chew or bite down on the left side of my mouth, he summons the nerve cavitoids, and then it's all finished.
Cursing my own procrastinating ways, the tooth, the cavitoids and the dentist, I walked up to the receptionist and set up an appointment to begin the root canal. I missed the appointment, of course—further procrastination.
For this reason, I think it's time I set up an appointment and finally nuke the society, I mean cavity. Pain has become too powerful. Pain has become the true product of procrastination.
"Of course you do, doc," I thought. "Of course, you wish you didn't have to make thousands of dollars patching a simple pothole on my tooth."

Rockin' bus driver cruises into Jayhawk memories
Tara Kelly
opinion @kansan.com
T the last thing he told us to do was to "party hearty." Of course, that's what he told us every Friday. And Thursday. Wednesday, Tuesday and Monday, too.
MASKED FACE
That was his goal anyway. Rockin' Ron Gleason always lived his life to the fullest, enjoying every moment. That's why he never passed up the opportunity to suggest a visit to the Crossing on a Friday afternoon. He'd even wait to pick you up right outside if you were lucky. It was just one of his many impromptu bus stops.
Ron would always go out of his way to make sure you made the bus. He had Stewart Avenue sonar. It
And you always would make the bus.
And you always would make the bus.
But the best, by far, is when you were walking in the bitter cold to some obscure place on campus, and all of a sudden the sounds of Zeppelin and The Dead wafted to your ears.
was as though he could see through the bushes or had eyes in the back of his head for when you were running like hell down the Boulevard to make the bus.
"Wanna ride?"
Let me think about that for a second. My ears are odd-shaped ice cubes only somewhat attached to my head. My fingers are strewn across the ground over the past 100 feet. My backpack has every book known to man in it, and Ron's 184 has materialized like a mirage right in front of me.
---
To perfectly complement that sonar, he had some sort of ultra-powerful memory. He always would know your name. People who never had ridden his bus before would receive a "Hey, (insert name here). How's it go?" I've had professors who I see two or three times a week, not to mention that I live in their office hours, who don't know my name.
"Sure. Ron. I want a ride."
And what a bus, huh? Stepping on to 184 was like stepping into another era. It was an era in which The Who still sings and Lennon is alive, well, and still with the Beatles. He had excellent taste in music.
But my bus driver did.
But it wasn't just the music he wanted to hear. Through the years, students made hundreds of tapes for Ron to play. He would play them, too.
Of course, it always was hard to hear Ron himself over the music, but hear him you could. Whether it was his kids, his bus, the latest party, Ron always would have an opinion. Every once in a while, he'd even surprise you and get that Clinton-Lewinsky reference in.
Not only would he play them, but he would always remember whose tape it was, and it would be playing when they stepped on the bus. When you got on the bus out of the freezing cold and heard your music playing, it was one of the best feelings on earth.
It was this easygoing personality that made Ron a highly requested charter driver for the Lawrence Bus Company. He was a permanent fixture for bar crawls and parties.
One of those papers reported that it was always Ron's wish to have a picture of him sitting on top of his bus, smoking a cigarette and listening to his music. He never got it, but hopefully I've left that picture in your head.
He was the kind of guy who never left you in the cold, never forgot your name and always had great taste in music. The kind of guy whose legacy will never be forgotten.

KJHK set to pump up the volume
By Ezra Sykes Kansan staff writer
As the signal power for KJHK prepares to rise upward, staff members are preparing to party down.
The student-run radio station is holding a wattage upgrade party at 10 tonight at The Bottleneck,737 New Hampshire St., to celebrate its upcoming 2,800-watt increase in signal power.
The party will feature The Believe it or nots, Electron Volts and Proud and Tail, who each will play 45-minute sets.
Brandy Ernzen, promotions director at KJHK, said the station also would be giving out free T-shirts and CDs at the party.
But promotions won't end at The Bottleneck tonight.
Ernzen, who has been heading a publicity campaign in Kansas City for the station, said her duties had increased right along with the wattage.
"I'm responsible for trying to get the word out to a huge number of people compared to the Lawrence audience now," she said. "The
scope of advertising will have to be bigger."
Ernzen said the promotions staff would resort to nontraditional types of media such as filers and sidewalk chalk to attract listeners as well as buying ads in area newspapers such as Pitch Weekly. A committee also has been formed to visit area high schools and spread the word about KJHK.
But Ernzen said once the expanded audience of a potential 1 million listeners had tuned in, many would be attracted to the station's variety in programming.
"One of the big things is that we play so many different kinds of music," she said. "They can all find one they enjoy."
Paul Turec, station manager and Lawrence senior, said KJHK, 90.7 FM, would be the only alternative music station in the Kansas City area other than KLZR 105.9 FM after the power boost.
"We are not looking to be in direct competition with them," he said. "But we want people to know that there is an option."

Greg Franklin, Olathe senior,

and has worked at the station for
four semesters as a deejay.
"Everybody that works there loves music," he said. "Some people just happen to be able to play an instrument, and so they do."
The station's current 100-watt signal barely covers all of Lawrence. After the wattage increase, the signal should range from the Kansas-Missouri state line to halfway between Topeka and Manhattan.
The power boost, which has been in the making for more than four years, is in its final stages, said Gary Hawke, general manager of KJHK.
Hawke said that the transmitter already was being installed and that the antenna, the other primary component for the project, was due to arrive today.
If everything goes as planned,
Hawke thinks a juiced-up KJHK

Proposed garage to include 500 meters
By Joanna Owen
KU students searching for parking spaces on campus may have a few more options once the proposed parking garage opens.
Special to the Kansar
The Parking Board, which met yesterday, proposed a plan for the allocation of 818 student, faculty and visitor spaces in the garage.
The plan will be discussed at the Student Senate meeting tonight to examine student reactions.
Don Kearns, director of parking, said 500 of the spaces had to be metered to make principal interest that would help pay off the $10 million garage.
The meters would be monitored 24 hours per day and seven days per week but would be open to students, faculty, staff and visitors.
"If I can't prove we can make principal
Kearns said the hourly spaces were necessary because the sale of permits would not generate enough income.
interest, they won't bond us," Kearns said.
Kathy Jansen, staff representative for the Parking Board, said she thought students would benefit from the hourly spaces.
"Students will utilize them more, and that's still an option," she said.
The plan is tentative and still has to be bonded and bid on before it is implemented.
it is debated who would benefit the most from the location of the new parking garage.
Donna Hultine, assistant director of parking, said students' needs should be taken into consideration.
The remaining 300 spaces would be allocated between students and faculty. The proposed plan would split the spaces evenly with 150 for yellow permits and 150 for red permits.
"We have to be sensitive to the fact that more students park on this campus than staff," she said.
The increase in cost of student permits last year has helped to fund the construction of the parking garage, in addition to
other parking lot reconfiguration.
Lots 103 and 104 on Daisy Hill will receive 195 new spaces; Lot 91, near Memorial Stadium, will increase by nine spaces; the Jayhawker Towers will receive 59 new spaces; Oliver Hall was given 224 parking spaces; and this summer, Lot 90, near Robinson Center, will get 338 new spaces.
The parking department also plans on expanding the Park-and-Ride system to 500 permits next year, an increase from this year's 225.
"Desirable spots are not resulting from the fee increase," Glenn Prescott, faculty representative, said.
Board members also were concerned that students focused on the fee increase and not the parking-space increase.
John Vaglio, Student Senate representative and Leawood senior, said he thought students should be aware of the new spaces opening up to them.
"They are getting more parking, just not in the structure," he said.

City limits bars' hours
City commission requires beer gardens to close early
By T.J. Johnson Kansan staff writer
The Lawrence City Commission voted unanimously last night to pass an agreement aimed at resolving a conflict between the Oread Neighborhood Association and The Jahawk Cafe and The Wagon Wheel.
The ordinance will require the two bars to close their outdoor beer gardens at midnight except for specially reserved events. The closing time for The Hawk, 1340 Ohio St., and The Wheel, 507 W. 14th St., will remain at 2 a.m.
The bars will be able to operate their outdoor beer gardens after midnight only on nights of home football games and graduation, and each bar will be allowed three nights a year to operate outdoors after midnight on nights they choose.
in no cases, the bars will be required to give advance notice of nights they will be operating late to both the city of Lawrence and to the Oread Neighborhood Association.
The bars also will have to obey city noise ordinances when broadcasting sporting events on outdoor speakers for their patron
Janet Gerstner, president of the Oread Neighborhood Association, said the ordinance was acceptable to the group.
"Although this ordinance isn't really what we had hoped for and we still feel that midnight closings are still needed, we are pleased with the changes that were made," Gerstner said.
John Heleniak, owner of The Hawk, said he was disappointed with the ordinance.
"I wish we could have gotten a couple of extra days because most of our business is at night." Heleniak said.
This agreement was an amendment to a resolution the commission had tabled on Feb. 3 that would have required the bars to close before midnight except for 15 nights when each bar could choose to have their beer gardens open until 2 a.m.
Members of the Oread Neighborhood Association and the city commission expressed concern that this original proposal would have resulted in 30 combined nights per year in which one bar would have patrons outside after midnight.
The ordinance also requires the bars to have security personnel on site from 11:30 p.m. to 2:30 a.m. Thursday through Saturday and to provide additional outdoor lighting in the area.

Coed greek living unpopular
Single-sex environments seen as important, valuable
By Jamie Knodel and Ezra Sykes
Kansan staff writers
KU administrators and students within the University's greek system are having a difficult time understanding an Ivy League university's efforts to make its fraternities and sororities good.
In early February, the Dartmouth College Board of Trustees and President James Wright outlined initiatives that they hoped the college would start implementing by early in the 1999-2000 school year, said Roland Adams, Dartmouth College director of news and public information.
Among their five recommendations was the goal that "the system should be substantially coeducational and provide opportunities for greater interaction among all Dartmouth students."
"I personally feel like it's a little rush. I feel that there is a purpose and place for single-sex learning environments," said Wes Simons, assistant director for KU Greek programs.
The National Intrafraternity Conference, National Panhellenic Conference and the National Pam-Hellenic Council had made statements saying that it wasn't in the best interests of Dartmouth College to combine sexes in the greek system.
Dartmouth College, in Hanover, N.H., is home to several Greek organizations, including three coed organizations, 16 fraternities and nine sororites.
Several national chapters represented at Dartmouth College also have chapters at the University of Kansas. Among these are Sigma Alpha Epsilon and Sigma Nu fraternities and Kappa Kappa Gamma, Alpha Kappa Alpha, Alpha Xi Delta and Delta Delta Delta sororites.
KU members of these chapters said the princi-
plies behind the greek system contradicted Dartmouth's attempt to make chapters coed.
"We have a mandate that states this is an allmen's organization," said Jesse Van Dyk, Sigma Alpha Epsilon president and Minneapolis junior.
Brian Wanamaker, Sigma Nu president and Topeka junior, said he did not think coed Greek organizations would be considered at the University of Kansas.
"It's an alien idea at this campus," he said. "It's out of the realm of possibility."
Simons said it was hard to put into words how valuable single-sex living environments were.
"You have to worry about male and female relationships that you don't have to in a single-sex learning environment. To take that away when that's the way you choose to live is too much." he said.
Noel Brinkerhoff, a member of Kappa Kappa Gamma sorority and Dallas junior, said it would be difficult for sorority members to share a living space with males.
"It would be a houseful of hormones," she said.
Adams said that right now, Dartmouth's idea for coed geek organizations was just a proposal.
"At this point, all that is clear is that Dartmouth College social living will contain substantial change. The administration has said that it will be dramatic and radical, but it is not clear what shape that change will be," he said.
And most Dartmouth College students are resistant to this change.
"They are making major changes in social life without student consultation. A lot of members feel insulted about this and that the trustees went about it in secret," said David Hawkins, member of Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity and Dartmouth College senior.
According to a poll in The Dartmouth, the student newspaper, 83 percent of students support single-sex fraternities and sororities.

THE LUSH VEGETATION OF ANTARCTICA

Antarctic findings, fossils on display
By Matt Merkel-Hess
Instead of the mile-thick ice and biting winds that are trademarks of the continent, Antarctica once was covered with trees and undergrowth.
Special to the Kansan
For the first time, the general public can get a glimpse of this ancient world at the Natural History Museum exhibit "Lush Vegetation in Antarctica." The exhibit began in late February and is scheduled to close April 30.
The exhibit showcases the research of Tom and Edie Taylor, professors of ecology and evolutionary biology. It includes about 50 fossils, pictures, maps, drawings of ancient foliage and examples of clothing necessary for survival in Antarctica.
As paleobotanists, the Taylors studied plant fossils and traveled to Antarctica to find and collect fossils 220 to 260 million years old.
"For most of geologic time Antarctica was much warmer," Edie Tayla said. "But today we're in an interglacial time period."
This interglacial period is part of a larger glacial period, which is colder
than much of the earth's past.
"We're looking at the question wrong," she said. "We shouldn't be asking why it was warmer. We should ask why it is colder now."
Tom has traveled to Antarctica nine times and Edie seven, with each trip lasting from six weeks to two months. The Taylors returned from each trip with as much as 16 tons of fossils, now stored in Haworth Hall. Their findings are one of the largest Antarctic fossil plant collection in the world, second only to the British Museum.
Each trip included a survival-training course, which Taylor said prepared them for the rapidly changing conditions.
"The weather rules everyone's life in Antarctica," Taylor said. "If something happens to the equipment, it's not the cold that will get you. It's the wind."
In Antarctica, the Taylers operated out of McMurdo Base, the United States' main base on the continent. Working with a four- to six-person field party, the Taylers took helicopters out of McMurdo and set up research camps in the field.
The fossils were found on the surface by looking in areas where geologists had noted plant fossils on previous expeditions, Taylor said. Sledgehammers and chisels were used to find fossils within rocks and to break the rocks into manageable chunks.
Everything from small bacteria to tree rings were fossilized — giving clues to the vegetation and climate. Taylor said Antarctica was one of the only sites in the world for this type of Permian and Triassic fossils.
Taylor said the thousands of fossils had not been cataloged because they didn't have anyone to work on them until recently.
Rudy Serbet, collection manager for paleobotany, is currently cataloging the collection to make a database to assist other research scientists.
"The ultimate goal is to get it on the Web." Serbet said. He also wants to index the information with pictures of the fossils.
The Taylors came to the University of Kansas from Ohio State University in 1995 and brought their fossil collection with them. This is the first time these fossils will be on public display because the Taylors had never been associated with a museum until they came to the University.
Exercise study under way at University
Kansan staff write
By Jennifer Roush
Spring 2001.
Researchers at the University of Kansas are conducting a groundbreaking study concerning the effects of exercise on college students.
The department of Health, Sport and Exercise Sciences is in charge of the Energy Balance study, which puts experimental subjects through 16 months of laboratory-monitored exercise to determine whether physical activity prevents weight gain in students.
Joseph Donnelly, HSES chairman, said he began the five-year study at the University of Nebraska-Kearney. Donnelly then transferred his $2 million grant to the University of Kansas. The study, which will involve 75 KU students, will conclude in
There will be three groups of subjects in the KU portion of the study. Researchers just have concluded recruiting for the current 16-month time period and will begin recruiting in September for the final group.
Donnell said students who were 20 to 30 pounds overweight or had a body mass index between 28 and 29 were eligible for the study, which pays $2000 to participants.
He said there had been no long-term studies to date on the effects of exercise. Most studies are only 6 to 12 weeks in duration.
That was too short a period to obtain reliable data. Donnelly said.
He also said previous studies had relied on subjects to honestly report their own exercise and caloric intake. Most people
who participated in those studies underreported how much they ate and overreported how much they exercised.
"It's hard to keep subjects in line," Donnell said.
The KU study will avoid these problems in two ways: all subjects are encouraged to eat whatever they want, and the experimental subjects must report to a laboratory for physical activity. They must exercise enough to burn a minimum of 2000 calories every week.
Their caloric intake also is monitored. Subjects must eat at least two meals each day at Ekdahl Dining Commons and report any snacks or alcohol intake to researchers, said Pam Legowski, research assistant and registered dietitian.

Olympic official contests report in investigation by ethics panel
The Associated Press
LONDON — A senior IOC official yesterday disputed a U.S. ethics panel's contention that the international committee fostered a culture of improper gift giving that led to corruption in the Olympic bid process.
The U.S. Olympic Committee panel, headed by former Senate Majority Leader George Mitchell, leveled most of the blame for the Salt Lake City vote-buying scandal on the IOC.
But Kevan Gosper, an IOC executive board member from Australia, said Mitchell's report failed to acknowledge that since 1987 the committee has had rules on gifts, travel and other items related to the bid process.
the bid process.
OLYMPIC GAMES
"It's quite unacceptable to say that the IOC has created an environment which has enabled gift giving and serves to run
out of control," Gosper said in a telephone interview from Melbourne. "I take strong objection to that."
In its report issued Monday, the panel said the conduct tolerated by the IOC was potentially illegal and corruptive. It said leaders turned a blind eye to corruption that was flourishing even as the Olympics grew into a billion-dollar industry.
Gosper welcomed Mitchell's recommended reforms, which include opening the IOC's books to annual public audits and having the bulk of IOC members elected to limited terms by other sports bodies. The IOC traditionally picks its own members to virtual life terms.
"We are going through a difficult period at the moment," he said. "But we are not out of business. It is our job to recover our position sensibly and quietly with some sensible reforms."
Gosper expected the executive board to convene by conference call this week to deal with remaining members implicated in the Salt Lake scandal.
He said it was especially important to exonerate any members found innocent of wrongdoing.
"We should be through the process by Friday," Gosper said. "We need to take those names who have been mentioned out of limbo and clear them."
Gosper predicted that fellow Australian IOC member Phil Coles, accused of accepting excessive hospitality during several visits to Salt Lake City, would be exonerated.
But Gopher said Coles needs to account publicly for his activities.
"It would be wise for him to sit down and quietly explain his events to the press and as open and transparent as possible," Gospel said. "I'm sure he will do that."
So far, nine IOC members either have resigned or been ousted in the Salt Lake City affair.
Three cases still are pending from the initial phase of an IOC inquiry commission, and 10 new names were implicated last month in a report by the Salt Lake City ethics board.
Dick Pound, IOC vice president, said Monday the panel was looking at an additional six members whose names were included in the board's working papers. That brings the total number of members implicated to 30, more than one-fourth of the total membership.
Brazilian legend scolds widespread conservative play
Pele sees U.S. as rising soccer power
The Associated Press
NEW YORK - No less a soccer expert than Pele, merely the greatest player the world's most popular sport has known, sees the United States as a rising power heading toward the next World Cup.
Speaking during a conference call yesterday in which Master. "d announced the renewal of its World Cup sponsorship and its deal with Pele, Pole also criticized the conservative manner in which games are played these days.
"With the clinics and training in the United States, I feel very proud to see the growing of football in U.S.," said Pele, the company's best-known spokesman. "When a national team has more experience,
"America beat England, Mexico, Germany, all these big teams. They have improved a lot since France '98. Of course, they need more experience and to play abroad. But no doubt today it is not easy to beat the American team."
they have become more strong. For the next World Cup in three years in Japan and South Korea, no doubt the United States will be a good team.
Pele, who led Brazil to three World Cup titles, then ventured to New York to play for the Cosmos and build the sport in the United States in the 1970s, would like to see a return to wide-open soccer. He is dismayed by the way coaches play not to lose rather than to win.
"People sometimes ask me as a joke this question, but it is not a joke, it is serious," he said. "The public looks for great players and nice individual plays, and this is difficult right now. The mind of the coach is to play as a team and not give the athlete too much space and creativity.
"I think we should work with the
youth and the coaches who come up from the base. Those coaches treat the under-18 and under-16 teams like they are training a professional team. They want to win the game, then they don't let the kids be creative.
"We should work harder on that. If you look in the last five years, we have one or two names we can mention (as stars). Before, we would have three or four on each team. I think this is damaging for the sport."
Soccer's global ambassador, Pele has worked for MasterCard since 1991 and will be conducting clinics and making appearances throughout the world in the buildup toward 2002. As an official sponsor, MasterCard's commitment to FIFA, the world governing body for soccer and its various international tournaments, will cost the company nearly $40 million.
A marketing source familiar with World Cup sponsorships told The Associated Press that MasterCard is likely to spend $130 million through the next three years, including what

Brazilian soccer player
member banks spend, in leveraging the 2002 sponsorship. That's about $30 million more than MasterCard committed to the 1998 World Cup.
Clearly, MasterCard finds that the association with soccer works. The Japan-South Korea tournament will be its fourth World Cup as an official sponsor.
"This is the most popular sport and largest sports event in the world, and we are a large global brand," said Mava Heffler, senior vice president of global promotions and sponsorship for MasterCard. "It is a good marriage overall."
Testaverde signs three-year, $19.5 million deal with Jets
1998 AFC passing leader cites family, desire to stay with Parcells as reasons
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Vinny Testaverde sensed he finally had found the right place. Oddly, he had to come home to discover it.
Long Island native Testaverde signed with the New York Jets as a free agent before last season. Then he led them to its best season in three decades and within a step of the Super Bowl.
On Monday, the 12-year veteran quarterback was rewarded with a three-year contract worth nearly $19.5 million to remain with his hometown team. The deal also includes a $6.2 million signing bonus, and the Jets hold a four-year option beyond the original three seasons. If exercised, Testaverde would earn $42.4 million for seven years.
"I didn't want the talks to be a distraction for me or the team," said Testaverde, who led the AFC in passing in 1998 and went 13-2. "I knew things would work out as soon as I signed there last year. It was a gut feeling I had. I think my decision has worked out for me to perform the best I can.
"After these talks today, I can refocus and get ready for the upcoming season. I'd like nothing more than to finish my career at home. When I first signed there, it was not on the top of my list wanting to come back home, to the Jets. It was playing for coach (Bill) Parcells and knowing his background and the way he coaches. Then coming home and being around my family, and as we went along, the family part moved up the ladder quite a bit."
The announcement of the deal was postponed after Testaverde's father, Al, died of a heart attack Feb. 14. Al Testaverde's heart condition prohibited him from watching his son's games live.
"The last few weeks have been a roller coaster," Testaverde said. "One thing I am still thankful for is my father got to enjoy a great season after my being away from my family my first 11 years in the NFL. I had the opportunity to come home last year and see him at training camp each day, knowing he couldn't watch the games on TV.
"But I was able to see him on a regular basis and talk with him on the contract negotiations. I'm very happy I got to share that time with him."
he now heaps to share more success with a team that until Parcells was hired in 1997 was one of the league's perennial losers. Testaverde was used to losing, having been drafted No. 1 overall in 1987 by Tampa Bay, which has had even less success than the Jets.
But the 1986 Heisman Trophy winner who grew up in Elmont, N.Y., not far from where the Jets train, turned around his career in '98. Signed ostensibly to be a backup to Glenn Foley, he became a starter when Foley got hurt. Testaverde took the Jets to their first division title since the team joined the NFL in 1970. Testaverde completed 259 of 421 passes for 3,256 yards and a team-record 29 touchdowns. The Jets advanced to the AFC title game, losing to Denver 23-10.
"After the success we had as a team and individually, in my heart I just wanted to get this deal done with the Jets," Testaverde said. "This year was the best of my career. I think there were reasons for that, and the biggest reason was Bill Parcells. I wanted to remain with him, so I can continue to have that success."
Royals look for leadership as well as playing ability in shortstop Rey Sanchez
Team hopes player will be a role model
The Associated Press
HAINES CITY, Fla. — Rey Sanchez knows that one of the reasons he was signed by the Kansas City Royals was because of his heritage.
Sanchez admits that in addition to his playing ability, the Royals brought him
in because he is a Spanish-speaking veteran who can help their Hispanic players adjust to living in the United States and playing in the major leagues.
R
Royals
"That's exactly what I see myself doing this year," Sanchez said. "That's one of the reasons that Tony (Muser) brought me here."
Muser hopes Sanchez, who is expected to be the starting shortstop, will play a big role in the development of second baseman Carlos Febles.
Sanchez is one of 10 players in the Royals' camp who were born in Latin American
countries. And that doesn't include pitcher Jose Rosado, who was born in New Jersey but grew up in Puerto Rico.
"It took me six months to learn the language," said Sanchez, who came to the United States from Puerto Rico at age 16 to attend high school in California as an exchange student. "All of my classes were bilingual."
Shortstop Mendy Lopez arrived from the Dominican Republic four years ago at age 19.
"It was tough," Lopez said.
"I was crying every day because I missed my family and everything. People don't know how tough it is for Latin players. You become afraid. Say something wrong, and everybody will laugh at you."
Muser is hopeful the lessons Sanchez has learned during his career will rub off on Febles and the others.
"I think he has the experience to do that," Muser said. "He's got a very young second baselman to work with. I don't know if he's ever considered himself to be a leader, but the demand of leadership is going to be asked of Rey."

Big East teams struggle for NCAA berth
Upsets in conference tournament could end hopes for three schools
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — The 20th Big East tournament will have a hard time matching the upsets and thrills of last year's tournament, and those coaches whose teams are still uncertain about their postseason future can't afford a repeat.
Last year's opening-round quintupleheader saw the 11th, 12th and 13th seeds all win. If that happens today at Madison Square Garden, teams such as Syracuse, Providence and Rutgers can say goodbye to their NCAA tournament hopes.
Those teams need a win, and in Rutgers' case may be two, to secure a spot in the NCAA's field of 64, along with certain locks — Connecticut (25-2), Miami (21-5) and St. John's (23-7) who have byes into tomorrow's quarterfinals.
Kevin Bannon was in his first season at Rutgers when the 12th-seeded Scarlet Knights knocked off fifth-seeded West Virginia in last year's opening round and followed that with a quarterfinal win against Georgetown before losing to Connecticut in the semifinals.
This year, the Scarlet Knights (17-11) are the sixth seed and enter today's fifth and final game against 11th-seeded Pittsburgh (14-15) on a four-game losing streak.
"The only thing we're concerned with now is getting back to playing good basketball and getting a much-needed win over Pitt," Bannon said. "The upper-classmen will remind the others of last year, and we may watch a little tape of it, but I want them to have a different attitude, go in with a little chip on our shoulder.
"I told them they have to win a game to get in the tournament, and they're fine with that. We want to go there and win a couple of games."
because of injuries.
Pittsburgh may have only six players available to play because of a season-end injury to forward Attila Cosby and the doubtful status of guard Jarrett Lockhart and forward Chris Seabrooks

we're in the next group and have been all year. I think we're worthy to get a look, and we've shown we can play at a high level."

replaced John Thompson following his sudden resignation during his 27th season at Georgetown. "Back in January we were fighting for our lives to play consistently. We had a good month of February, winning some games. Give an awful lot of credit if we do end up in a tournament to the players for what they went through with the change."
Fourth-seeded Syracuse (19-10) can't afford an opening-round loss to 13th-seeded Boston College (6-20), which was one of the upset teams last season, knocking off 11th-seeded Seton Hall.
"We have to guard against the fact we've had two very good games against them this year," Orangemen coach Jim Doeheim said. "Uppermost in my mind is, guarding against that."
Today's opener will have eighth-seeded Notre Dame (14-15) against ninth-seeded Seton Hall (14-13), and the other first-round match-up has fifth-seeded Villanova (20-9) against 12th-seamed West Virginia (10-18).
"Last year we were the fifth seed and lost to the 12th." Mountaineers coach Gale Catlett said. "With the season we've had, we can only hope for another tournament like last year's."
NCAA rulings settle eligibility of two'Huskers
The Associated Press
LINCOLN, Neb. — The Nebraska football team picked up one player and lost another in recent NCAA rulings.
Quarterback Jeff Perino, who had been on medical exempt status for the last two years, was granted one year of eligibility after his recovery from three knee surgeries.
Wingback Shevin Wiggins was not granted his request for another year of football eligibility. He had asked the NCAA to extend his college career beyond the five-year limit.
"We applied to get an extension, and it was denied based of the fact that you have to have documentation to show that it was not possible to attend school during that five-year period," said Al Papik, Nebraska's senior associate athletic director in charge of compliance.
Wiggins, who played at Manatee High School in Palmetto, Fla., with former Nebraska quarterback Tommie Frazier, was recruited in 1994 but sat out while gaining academic eligibility.
He was redshirted in 1995 and played the last three years.
Wiggins is best known for being the player who kicked the ball that was caught in the end zone as time expired during Nebraska's come-from-behind win at Missouri in 1997.
According to a recent court ruling, the NCAA can allow students with disabilities — Wiggins has a reading disability — to regain the year of eligibility they missed.

backer Eric Johnson gained an

ary.

Perino's ruling also was expected, Papik said. A quarterback from Durango, Colo., Perino was one of the Huskers' two quarterback recruits in 1995 — the other was Frankie London.
Since Wiggins sat out as a redshirt, he missed one year of opportunity to play, and there was no surprise in the NCAA decision, Papik said.
Knee surgery shortened Perino's final high school season, and he had more knee surgery in 1995 and 1996 and missed both seasons. He was declared medically exempt — keeping his scholarship but ineligible to ever play again.
However, his most recent surgery a year ago was successful, and the rehabilitation allowed him to start running and lifting again. He is participating in winter conditioning and applied for a waiver to the medical exempt status.
If he passes a physical examination before spring football, Perino will be eligible to participate this spring and next fall. He has extensive knowledge of the Nebraska offense after working as an undergraduate assistant during the last two years.
Nebraska had to make the special application so that Perino's reinstatement would not count against the 85-scholarship limit for the years he was out.
Pete Rose gets son a tryout
Pete Jr. aims to play for Dodgers this year
The Associated Press
VERO BEACH, Fla. — Pete Rose kept a low profile, sitting quietly in the stands at Dodgertown, watching his son play in an intrasquad game. He hopes to be watching Pete Jr. playing in Los Angeles one of these days.
"I think I've got what it takes," Pete Jr. said yesterday. "I plan on making the team. I don't plan on playing in (Triple-A) Albuquerque."
And Pete Jr, says it's going to happen, later if not sooner.
And if manager Davey Johnson sends him down?
"I'll bust my tail," Pete Jr. said.
"I'm going to be in LA at some time.
I'm a guy who's got some pop. Left-handed pop looks to be a little scarce around here. I think Davey Johnson likes tough guys. I come to play."
The elder Rose, the career hits leader who agreed to a lifetime ban for gambling, called Dodgers general manager Kevin Malone during the winter to request a favor.
"Pete asked me to give his son a chance," Malone recalled. "I've known both of them for years. They both have huge hearts. I figured it was a win-win situation. I told Pete it would be tough for (Junior) to make the team. He said, 'No special treatment, all we ask is a chance.'"
And that's the deal. The younger Rose, a 29-year-old whose only
major league experience was a brief spell with Cincinnati Reds 18 months ago, signed a minor league contract with an invitation to spring training.
"Nobody can tell me to stop chasing my dream," he said.
Rose referred to the change his son went through between the 1996 and 1997 seasons. Essentially, Pete Jr., went from a clone of his father to a power hitter, bulking up in the gym from 200 pounds to around 230.
"He knows how to play. He's not going to give up," the elder Rose said. "He's just now figuring out his m.o."
And here he is, giving it his best shot.
"I'm bigger than he is," the younger Rose said. "It took me longer to figure things out. I had to make a change, and I did. Basically, I've been at this for only a few years."
"It is a plus when you have the hit-king on your side," he said. "He's just unbelievable, a great person, a great dad, a great coach."
He recently spent a week with his father, and it helped as he entered spring training.
And, obviously, a big fan of his son.
The younger Rose had his best season by far in 1997, hitting .308 with 25 homers and 98 RBI in 112 games for Double-A Chattanooga. He was called up by the Reds and made his only big-league start on Labor Day, going 1-for-3.
The crowd in Cincinnati, where Rose's father played most of his career and later managed, was 31,920. The majority of those tickets
were sold after it was announced Rose was playing.
"The Reds didn't give him a chance," dad said. "They used him to make some money. I know it wasn't (owner) Marge (Schott). Marge likes Pete. If nothing else, he paid to go to spring training the next year."
It didn't happen that way, and after the younger Rose was asked to go to Double-A in 1998, he refused and asked for his release. He wound up the year playing for the New Jersey Jackals of the independent Northeast League.
The younger Rose remains somewhat bitter.
"Playing in Cincinnati was special, unbelievable," he said. "There will only be one thing better — when I go there as a visitor and get the job done. And it's going to happen.
("The Dodgers) go to Cincinnati in May. I've already had dreams about playing against them, coming up in a big situation and getting a key hit."
Despite what happened, the elder Rose said he still pulled for the Reds.
"They play on Pete Rose Way, man," he said. "I just don't like the way certain people treated him. I'm a Dodger fan now. I just don't want to make those flights to Albuquerque."
As Rose spoke, his son, a left-handed hitter wearing No.74, came to the plate to face Onan Masaoka, a left-handed pitcher.
"I'll let you know if he's my son after he hits," Rose said to a fan. "If he gets a hit, he's my son. If he doesn't, he's your son."
Cardinals to start Mercker in opener
The Associated Press
And he's ready.
JUPITER. Fla. — Left-hander Kent Mercker, who led the St. Louis Cardinals in both wins and losses last season, gets the start Friday in the exhibition opener against the Los Angeles Dodgers in Vero Beach, Fla.
"So far, everything has gone as planned," Mercker said yesterday. "I'm just hoping to build on the way it went at the end of last season."
He will be opposed by the Dodgers' Ismael Valdes, who was 11-10 with a 3.98 earned run average in 27 starts.
It was a streaky season for Mercker, one in which he won and lost games in bunches. He finished strong, winning all three of his starts in September for a 2.70 ERA.
Merker had an 11-11 record last season with 29 starts in 30 games. But he had a high ERA — 5.07 in 161.2 innings.
"I was able to work out some mechanical things late last season." Mercker said, "And I've also been
working on the mental part, trying to control myself out there."
Manager Tony La Russia said Mercker had shown that he deserved to be in the starting rotation.
"He might have had a couple of more wins, a couple of fewer losses last season," La Russa said. "But overall, he pitched durably, and he pitched well."
Pitching a maximum of three innings. Mercker will be followed by Garrett Stephenson, Rick Heiserman, Rick Croushore and Lance Painter.
For the Dodgers, Dave Milicki, Chris Haney, Doug Bochtler, Pedro Borbon and Alan Mills will follow Valdes.
In the spring home opener Saturday against Montreal, Darren Oliver will start against Mike Thurman. On Sunday, it will be the Cardinals' Donovan Osborne against the Expos' Jeremy Powell.
The Cardinals will play two intrasquad games today, each lasting about 90 minutes, or until each player has at least two at bats. The two winning teams will play on the stadium field tomorrow, while a consolation game also is scheduled. Coaches will pitch in all the intrasquad games.
George Washington, Xavier Temple expected to get spots
The Associated Press
Fewer A-10 teams to play in postseason
PHILADELPHIA - For an encore, the Atlantic 10 Conference will settle for three teams in the NCAA tournament.
Coming off a year when five Atlantic-10 teams made the field of 64, the conference had four teams in the preseason Top 25 — No. 7 Temple, No. 17 Xavier, No. 23 Rhode Island and No. 24 Massachusetts. Hopes were high for the League's best season ever.
maintain that success year after year."
But when the conference tournament opens today, only four teams have winning records, and none are ranked in the Top 25.
"I's the league down?" asked Fordham coach Nick Macarchuk. "I guess you're going to have to say that if we had five teams going to the NCAAs last year, it's hard to

nament, while Rhode Island (17-12) needs to do well in the league tournament to stand a chance of getting in.
At this point in the season, though, George Washington coach Tom Penders isn't about to quibble with rankings. He just wants a chance to keep playing.
"It's the time of year when coaches don't want to be expected to do well," Penders said.
George Washington, with 5-foot-4 point guard Shawna Rogers (20.7 points and 6.9 assists per game) leading the way, is one of the favorites to gain an automatic NCAA berth by winning the Atlantic-10 tournament.
"Rogers is unbelievable." Penders said. "He's one of the best college basketball players in the country in my mind, and without him we stink."
Temple coach John Chaney, who recently gained his 600th victory, saw his Owls lose their regular season finale to UMass.
"We've gotten to a point where we're beating up on ourselves," said Chaney, whose Owls received a first-round bye after winning the Atlantic 10 East Division.
ALMA
Temple also received bad news as sixth man Quincy Wadley (9.6 points per game)
will miss at least a week because of a bruised bone in his left hand. The injury thins out a backcourt already depleted after a season-ending injury to sharpshooter Lynn Greer.
George Washington, along with Xavier (20-9) and Rhode Island (17-12), also received first-round byes, which prevent a team from having to win four games in four days.
In its season finale, George Washington beat Xavier despite 28 points from James Posey. The forward has stepped up in the last five games, averaging more than 20 points and 10 rebounds.
"Posey has been a very, very good player for us," Xavier coach Skip Presser said. "But we're a team that doesn't have a large marvel for error."
Jim Harrick's second season at Rhode Island hasn't been as magical as his first, when his Rams came within 30 seconds of going to the 1988 Final Four.
Rhode Island ended the season with losses to St. Bonaventure and Fordham. The team is recuperating from a bout with the flu that sidelined star Lamar Odom for the Fordham game, and forward Luther Clay has been hampered by pulled muscles in his stomach and calf.
"We're kind of on the low side of the bubble now," Harrick said about his team's NCAA chances. "Sometimes you play better like that, sometimes you play yourself out of the tournament."
At least the Rams will have an extra day of rest, while the eight other Atlantic-10 teams hit the court today.
The first-round match-ups are Virginia Tech (12-14) vs. Fordham (12-14); UMass (13-15) vs. Duquesne (5-22); St. Bonaventure (14-14) vs. Dayton (10-16); and La Salle (12-14) vs. St. Joseph's (12-17).

Orlando Cepeda elected to baseball Hall of Fame
TAMPA, Fla. — Orlando Cepeda, the Baby Bull who earned his reputation with a big bat, and three others were elected to the Hall of Fame yesterday by the Veterans Committee.
Former umpire Nestor Chylak, turn-of-the-century manager Frank Selee and Negro League pitcher Smokey Joe Williams also were selected.
The 12-member Veterans panel, which included former Cepeda teammate Juan Marichal, Ted Williams and Stan Musial, passed up Bill Mazeroski, Dom DiMaggio, former manager Dick Williams and umpire Dou Harvey.
"As a rookie on the Veterans Committee, I'm glad he got in on my first year," Marialch said of Cepeda.
Candidates needed 75 percent — nine votes — for election.
Induction ceremonies will be held July 25 at Cooperstown, N.Y. Nolan Ryan, George Brett and Rob Young were elected in January by the Baseball Writers' Association of America.
"He was the type of player who had no fear, the type of player you wanted playing behind you," he said.
MEDICAL
Cepeda was the NL's rookie of the year in 1958 with San Francisco and the league's first unanimous MVP in 1967 with St. Louis. He hit .297 with 379 home runs and 1,365 RBL.
Cepeda, 61, missed being inducted by just seven votes in the writers' elections five years ago. He came close last year in voting by the Veterans.

"I just hope this time I make it," said Ce, eda, community relations representative for the Giants. "It would be the highest thing. It's hard to describe how much it would mean."
Falcon offered diversion for soliciting prostitute
MIAMI — Atlanta Falcons safety Eugene Robinson, charged with prostitution solicitation the night before the Super Bowl, was offered a diversion program yesterday that, if completed, would clear the All-Pro player's record.
Robinson did not appear before Judge Terethe Lundy Thomas in Miami-Dade County Court for his arraignment. Robinson's attorney, Jeffrey Allen, met briefly with prosecutor Marc Weinstein to strike the deal.
Pre-trial diversion programs often are offered to first-time offenders. Robinson would be ineligible if Thomas discovers he has been convicted or charged with a crime in Florida or another state.

Under the agreement, Robinson has to have an HIV test and complete a course on AIDS. He will be
Once Robinson completes the program successfully, charges will be dropped.
Robinson, 35, was arrested Jan. 30 for soliciting an undercover police officer for oral sex. He was among about 25 people arrested in a police sting targeting solicitation on Biscayne Boulevard, a major street in downtown Miami frequented by prostitutes.
His arrest came about 1.2 hours after a Christian athletes group selected him as the winner of an award for high moral character. He later returned the award.

Texas Tech redshirt to run team's offense
LUBBOCK, Texas — The first-team Texas Tech football offense will be in the hands of redshirt freshman Kliff Kingsbury during spring drills, following surgery that will sideline Rob Peters. team officials said westerday.
Peters underwent surgery last week to repair damage to his right thumb suffered in the Red Raiders' season opener last fall against Texas-El Paso.
Kingsbury is the only other scholarship quarterback currently on the team. Walk-ons David Kelly, Shae McCutecheon and Brad McDaniel will be backups.
Peters broke his thumb and sprained a shoulder against UTEP and missed the next two games.
Kingsbury passed for 3,009 yards and 34 touchdowns while leading New Braunfels to the Class 5A Division II semifinals in 1997.

Jayhawks ready for Cowgirls
Continued from page 1A
The Cowgirls won only four conference games and finished 12-14 overall in what Coach Dick Halterman called one of the most disappointing seasons in his 16 years at Oklahoma State.
Even Kansas, who remained in the top 25 all but one week during the season, struggled on the road in the Big 12, winning just half of its games. Entering the Big 12 tournament, only Texas Tech, Iowa State and Kansas have recorded 20 wins and likely ensured NCAA berths.
Washington said she hoped the selection committee would take into account the tough conference schedule.
"It's crazy, but it's a reality," she said. "I don't think we should be penalized because everyone's working hard to improve their programs."
The tournament began yesterday as Kansas State defeated Colorado 55-51 in the opener. Nebraska also defeated Texas A&M 82-71, Oklahoma State beat Alabama 70-56, while Missouri probably ended Baylor's NCAA tournament hopes with a 60-59 victory.
Next year looks to be an even tougher year in the Big 12 as only conference regular-season champion Texas Tech has consistently started more than one senior. In fact, Texas Tech's Big 12 Player of the Year Angie Brazel was the only senior named to the All-Big 12 First Team.

Commentary
End of season sparks award distribution
The regular season has finished. Let's take some time from our normally busy sports schedules and give away some KU men's basketball awards.
After all, these guys practice hard all season. They might not have played in the last minute of a game against Iowa State, but they did practice hard all season.
These awards aren't anything like the Academic All-District Seven award that seniors T.J. Pugh and Ryan Robertson won earlier this week. These are awards from a cynical college sports columnist.
The name? The Jonzees, kind of like the Grammys, but fewer people care.
10
So, without further ado let's give these awards away.
Seth Jones
sports@kansan.com
The Brutally Honest
Why did I start with a mean award? I guess because I'm so cynical. The Jon-zees need to be good awards. So let's refocus.
The Bradley Honest
Jon-zee goes to Coach Roy Williams for describing the Jayhawks as "a bunch of seventh graders" in the final minute of the game against Iowa State. I agree, Coach. So what grade level was the coaching for that final play when Eric Chenowith took a leaning three-point shot?
The Best Name Jon-zee goes to Marlon London. Just say it. Mar-LON LON-don. Nice ring to it. And he would have gotten another award as well if it was not for Jeff Boschese, who grabs the Freshman of the Year Jon-zee. I know he just got Big 12 Conference Freshman of the year, but the Jon-zee comes along with a Spiderman comic book.
The Don't Call Me "J.J." Jon-zee goes to Nick Bradford, who plays out of position but plays outstanding basketball. For his size, Bradford also is a fantastic rebounder. Throw in some hustle and a lot of versatility, and Bradford is my MVP this season.
The Hitch Up the Bandwagon Now Jonzee goes to redshirt Luke Axtell. The Jayhawks only scored 18 points in the second half Sunday. Don't worry, next year Axtell will have some games when he'll score 18 points in one half by himself. Yes, the Jayhawks need offense. Yes, Kansas has some great recruits in Nick Collison, Andrew Gooden and Kirk Heinrich. But the sharphooter has been sitting on the bench. KU students are ready for you to trade the blue jeans for some warm-ups, Luke.
The Beverly Hills 90210 Hair-Do Jon-zee goes to Eric Chenowith. At times he's looked good; at times he's looked, well, bad. But he is getting better, and soon we will be able to depend on him for about 15 points, 10 rebounds and seven blocks a game. I just hope it's this year's NCAA tournament.
The Album of the Year Jon-zee goes to Lauryn Hill for the Misdirection of Lauryn Hill. It's a great album, and I just figure she should win a Jon-zee, too. The Beastie Boys and The Jon Spencer Blues Explosion take a close second and third place on that one.
Jones is an Mulvane junior in magazine journalism.
The Donated Good Ankle Jon-zee goes to Lester Earl. I remember when you could almost hit your head on the rim, Lester. Take it easy this summer and get your verticality back. OK?
Finally, The Wish You Were Here Jon-ze goes to former Kansas player Paul Pierce. I know that he doesn't play college ball anymore. But right now, he's the NBA leader in steals with 2.73 a game (He's ahead of Scottie Pippin and Gary Payton, kids) and he just recently dropped out of the top 10 in three-point field goal percentage.
Heck, as long as we're making fun of people, let's do "Most annoying sports columnist." The candidates range from myself to Jason Whitlock (hint:hint). So be creative, have fun and be brutally honest (like Coach Williams). E-mail me at sethjonz@eagle.cc.ukans.edu with your picks for the things most wrong in college basketball.
■ Readers — I need your help. Next Wednesday in my column I'll print tie winners of the Woj awards, which were named after obnoxious former Duke point guard Steve Wojciechowski. These awards are given to the least likable things about college basketball such as "Most annoying player," "Least likable coach," "Worst announcer" and so on.
Boschee wins Big 12 Freshman of the Year
By Kevin C. Wilson Kansan sportswriter
It didn't take long for freshman Jeff Boschee to make a name for himself at the University of Kansas.
Boschee, who became the first point guard to start for the Jayhawks since Jacque Vaughn in 1994, was named Big 12 Freshman of the Year yesterday after narrowly defeating Missouri's Kevon Dooling.
The native of Valley City, N.D., who led all Big 12 freshman in scoring, assists and three-point field goals, received 14 votes, while Dooling collected 10.
"It's a great opportunity and something that you can be proud of," Boschee said of the award.
Kansas senior Ryan Robertson said the award was definitely warranted.
"I think it is a tremendous honor and well-deserved," Robertson said about his backcourt mate. "He's had a great year, and in tough situations he's really performed well. I'm proud of him, and I think he's done a great job."
Boschee has been successful especially in conference play, where he averages 10.3 points and ranks in the top 10 in three statistical categories. The 6-foot-1 point guard is fourth in the conference in three-point field goals (2.53 per game), eighth in three-point field goal percentage (.38) and eighth in assists (3.6 per game). Boschee leads the Jayhawks with 62 three-pointers, which is the most ever by a Kansas freshman.
Despite Boschee's success, Kansas coach Roy Williams said it hadn't all been a bed of roses.
"It's been a tough year for him because it was such a huge jump for him from Valley City to the Big 12."
Williams said. "The size and quickness of the players he played against there, and then all of a sudden being here, it was at times very difficult. But the little rascal just kept playing."
And play he did. Bosche has started in 27 of the Jayhawks 28 games, with Senior Night being the exception, and was twice named Big 12 Freshman of the Week.
When asked whether he thought he was the best freshman in the Big 12 this season, Boschew was quick to acknowledge his fellow classmates.
"I like to think so." Boschee said. "But there's a lot of great young talent out there, and that should provide an excellent future for the Big 12."
One of the budding young stars is the explosive Dooling. The Tigers' 6-foot-3 point guard, who was the preseaason Big 12 freshman of the year, averaged 10.7 points and 3.4 assists in conference play.
Boschee said he was looking forward to facing off with Dooling in the years to come.
"It should be a really great three years for both of us," Boschee said. "It's going to be a great match-up for Kansas and Missouri."
Although Boschee admitted the wear and tear of his first season had begun to take its toll, he was optimistic about his future.
"They say your first year is hard to get through, so hopefully my sophomore year will be a lot easier," Boschee said.

Kansas baseball looks to end skid against Baker
By Matt Tait
Kansan sportswriter
Maybe, just maybe the way to break their seven-game losing streak is for the Jayhawks to break in their newly renovated stadium.
The Kansas baseball team, 2-8 overall and 0-3 in the Big 12 conference, will try to do just that as it plays host to Baker University at 3 p. m. today at Hoglund-Maupin Stadium.
The 'Hawks endured a drubbing at perennial power Texas Tech last weekend and are looking for anything to help them get on track.
Randall said that the Kansas offense was nearly nonexistent and that the pitching and defense had not executed the way he would like.
"There is nothing wrong with our team. The only thing wrong is how we're playing." Coach Bobby Randall said.
Baker, 0-4, is an NAIA school, and Coach Darin Loe said the team relished the chance to play a Division I team such as Kansas.
"It's really an honor for us to schedule a team like KU," Loe said. "It helps our kids to see what a Division I program is all about."
Randall, however, is not making excuses for Kansas' performance.
"Right now we don't need excuses. We need practice and execution." Randall said. "We can think of hundreds of excuses."
Baker second baseman Shaun Edmondson agreed and said that it provided the team with a chance to see where it stacked up against major college talent.
Today's doubleheader should give Randall an opportunity to play many players at many positions.
"It's a big deal for us NAIA schools."
Edmondson, who is from Lawrence, joins pitcher Quentin Rials and outfielder Nick Wood on Baker's squad, both of whom are also from Lawrence. The three will have a reunion of sorts as they will play against a former high school teammate. Kansas catch Shane Wedd.
Edmondson said. "Everyone wants to go D-I out of high school, and this serves as a measuring stick where we can really prove ourselves."
Although Kansas' early opponents have been nationally ranked and displayed explosive offenses, Ryan Klocksien, Shorewood, Minn., freshman said the team was not approaching the game against the NAIA opponent any differently.
"You have to play them all the same, whether it's LSU or Lawrence High," Klocksien.said.
Klocksien, primarily a pitcher, showed
his versatility in Lubbock as he pitched, pinch hit and was the designated hitter.
"I feel it's important to be an all-around player," Klocksien said. "I think that's what helps the team the most."
This year against Baker, Kansas will have to play a better game than last year.
Last year, Baker won the second of two seven-inning games, 9-8. Loe said the win was the high point of Baker's season.
Randall said that although Baker deserved to win last year, his team would be ready for the Wildcats this year.
"We have a lot to gain every time we walk on the field," Randall said. "We want to worry about the way we're winning instead of being afraid to lose."
After tonight's doubleheader, the Hawks' next action will come Friday as they entertain the Texas Longhorns in a weekend series.

Big 12 women bask in glow of year
Jayhawks to face Cowgirls in conference tournament
By Matt James Kansan sportswriter
In a successful season for the Big 12 women's basketball teams, Kansas looks to extend its success against Oklahoma State in the Big 12 Tournament at 8:35 p.m. today at Municipal Auditorium in Kansas City, Mo.
In only the third season of existence, the Big 12 posted a 94-36 record against non-conference opponents, and no team posted a losing record in those games. Only Texas A&M came close at 5-5.
The strong early records were not inflated by poor competition, either. In fact, all but two Big 12 teams played at least one ranked team before conference play began.
With nearly every team riding a wave of momentum into January something had to
Nebraska roared into conference play at 11-2, ranked in the Associated Press Top 20, and appeared to be headed for an easy NCAA tournament bid. The Cornhuskers, however, were softened in the meat grinder that has become the Big 12 road schedule, and limped into this week's tournament with a 19-10 overall record, needing a good showing to guarantee an NCAA birth. Nebraska did win three of its last four but managed only two conference road wins, against conference cellar dwellers Oklahoma State and Texas A&M.

give, and the teams whose waves crashed came as a surprise to many.
Coach Marian Washington said she thought the Cowgirls looked as if they were going to be a tough team before they began Big 12 play.
"Before conference play started, I thought Oklahoma State was one of those teams," she said. "And then they get into the conference race, and everybody's playing so well."

A break away from the usual
Students choose tropical paradise for a spring getaway

Spring break provides students with a prime opportunity to forget about their studies — at least for the most part.
Instead, they can relax while enjoying a sleep-filled week at home, zipping down a mountain slope or lounging at a remote tropical location, soaking up the sun and meeting new people.
Even Oprah Winfrey knows the benefits of having the beach mere yards away. Two weeks ago she took her show on the road for a week in the Bahamas, where show topics were inspired by the island environment. Many students agree that choosing to spend their vacations among the palm trees is best
"I'm going to Jamaica this year," said Sarah Russell, Hutchinson junior. "I went to Cancun last year and had a blast, but I wanted to go somewhere new." There are many advertisements for spring break
vacations peppering newspapers, and numerous Web sites come up when "spring break" is entered into an Internet search engine. Most of the sites offer students the chance to escape the monotony of everyday life and fly off to the beach.
Each site attempts to entice students with claims of the lowest prices, best hotels and hottest spots.
http://springbreaktravel.com/home.html, has a contest to win a free trip the moment a person logs on. It also provides potential customers with a run down of their credentials including: recognized by the Council of Better Business Bureaus for outstanding marketplace ethics, no complaint history and Escrow protection on your payment. The list goes on to provide further information about what to consider when choosing a trustworthy travel agent.
Appealing icons on the site lead curious web travelers to the wonderful world of airline and hotel descriptions for places such as the Bahamas, Cancun, Mexico, Negril, Jamaica, Daytona Beach, Cocoa Beach, Panama City — names that invoke visions of swimming-suit clad students hitting the beach to obtain great tans.
Travel agencies can always provide students with their idea of the most affordable as well as the most beautiful places to go.
"I think as far as clear water, white sandy beaches and those type of surroundings at Cazumel and Cancun are great," said John Novotny, manager at Travellers Inc., 831 Massachusetts, said. "Price is always a range starting out at moderate and going to expensive depending on what the individual wants."
These warm destinations offer a variety of activities. Besides the obvious pastimes of beach-bumming and swimming, vacationers can go snorkeling or scuba diving. These underwater activities give the a chance to view the beauty of the underwater life.
For the more adventurous, some locations offer para-sailing and cliff jumping. And for those who prefer to see the wildlife from the safety of a boat, tours are usually offered. Some boats are glass-bottomed providing a more up-close-and-personal look. Or for those who really love boats, cruises also are offered by most agencies.
"I'm looking forward to basically relaxing, having a long break from school and enjoying the warm weather, especially with how it has been here lately." Russell said.

Snow is the way to go for some KU students
By Kate McCarty
Special to the Kansan
After an unusually mild winter, spring finally has arrived.
But don't pack away the hat and gloves just yet. It's time to bundle up and head for the mountains. For many skiers, spring break may be the last chance they get to hit the slopes until next winter.
According to the Vail Resorts Web site, www.snow.com, the state's world renown skiing resort towns — Keystone, Breckenridge, Vail and Beaver Creek are some of the most popular spots in Colorado. Each offers a variety of ski runs that will satisfy first-time skiers and experts alike.
For KU students who want to take a ski vacation, Colorado is the easiest option because it is closest.
The site said that each resort had a hotel but that there were many different lodging options. Most local hotels and condominiums have shuttles available to and from the parks.
Besides being home to some of the biggest ski
areas in Colorado, the site said Breckenridge and Vail also were known for their night life. Both have more than 100 restaurants and bars, shopping, theater, dog sled racing and many other activities to do while taking a day off from skiing.
Some KU students plan to get away with their friends while others see spring break as an opportunity to spend time with their families.
"I'd like to have a friend go along but that defeats the purpose of a family trip," he said. Wells said it might sound like more fun to spend a week in Colorado with friends than family, but there were definite advantages to both.
Jaxon Wells, Pittsburgh sophomore, is going to Breckenridge with his mother and sisters.
"As long as I don't have to pay for anything, I can't complain," said Wells.
The Vail Web site said a three-day lift ticket to Keystone cost $138 and offered access to Breckenridge, Arapahoe Basin, Vail and Beaver Creek. A single day ticket is $52 at Keystone and Breckenridge and $62 at Vail and Beaver Creek.
Melissa King, Salina freshman, and her
boyfriend are going to Keystone for four days
"We've both saved a long time for this, but we worked and that makes it a little easier to afford," she said.
Relaxing with peers often helps people escape school pressures and responsibilities.
Melanie Michael, Cheney freshman, said parents tended to hinder some of the freedom of vacation, which can be both good and bad. She said it could help keep students from doing things they should not be doing, but it could also be restricting.
Questions sometime arise as to why some people would celebrate the start of spring in a winter environment rather than the typical college vacation spots such as Cancun or Davonta Beach.
Michiel said skiing was the perfect way to spend spring break.
"Being in the mountains helps me escape for a little while," she said. "I want to relax when I'm on vacation, not be stuck in the middle of a 24-hour drunken party."

Sexual health at risk during spring break
By Lisa Stevens John Special to the Kansan
Spring break may be a time for leaving cares at home, but it's not a time for being careless — especially when it comes to sex.
Henry Buck, physician and coordinator of the gynecology department at Watkins Memorial Health Center, said there seemed to be a correlation between sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) and the activities that occurred during spring break.
"There's a greater chance of exposure during spring break because of the environment, which is frequently laced with alcohol in one form or another." Buck said. "The use of alcohol and STDs usually go together hand in hand."
Randall Rock, physician and chief of staff of Watkins, agreed. Sometimes, there are cures for the STDs. he said.
"However, there are many infectious diseases for which the price includes lifelong inconveniences of recurrent outbreaks." Rock added.
Other than avoiding the risk by abstaining from sex, there is still one standby protection — the condom. Deb Howes, health educator at Watkins, said statistics showed condoms prevented some STDs about 94 percent of the time.
Unfortunately, the condom is not as reliable as most people think. Its effectiveness depends on appropriate use and the type of infections to which the person is exposed.
Buck said, "They're led to believe if they use a condom everything's going to be OK, and that just isn't the case."
Buck said the four most common STDs in the collegeage population were HPV, or human papilloma virus, which could cause genital warts and cervical disease; chlamydia; herpes and molluscan contagiosum.
"Of these, only chlamydia is spread by bodily fluids, so use of a condom may be helpful in preventing this." Buck said.
The other three are spread by physical contact, he said.
"You don't even have to have intercourse to pick them up," Buck said. "The condom is much less than satisfactory because it doesn't cover everything that is exposed."
Even if someone does contract an STD, it takes a while for symptoms to develop.
"Chlamydia takes about two weeks, HPV usually takes three months or more, and herpes takes a couple of weeks on average," Buck said.
Another STD with delayed symptoms is HIV, which Buck said was rarer in the college-age population.
"The rate of HIV is about one in 500." Buck said. "According to 1997 statistics, if you're looking at chlamydia and HPV, the incidence is 46 per 400. So they're 46 times more likely to get chlamydia or HPV than HIV." Buck said.
It's good to be aware of the hazards of sex. Buck said.
"The figures show that approximately 80 percent of college students are sexually active," Buck said. "There are some who have had only one partner and there are some who have had 20. Some people have attempted to be careful, and some haven't."
Overall, common sense at all times is the best disease prevention. Rock said.
"HIV, the HPV virus and other sexually transmitted diseases do not take a spring break," Rock said. "In general, the precautions you use at home should be observed away from home. The limits and standards you would set for yourself should not vary significantly depending on your location."
PROTECTION
While urging students to use caution during the break,
To prevent unwanted pregnancies or diseases during spring break, students may want to consider contraception. Some methods are more effective than others. This information was taken from www.fda.gov/dac/features/1997/babyabt.html. *Mala Condon* - Besides
Male condom - destabilizes abstinence, latex condoms are the best protection against sexually transmitted diseases. Condoms are estimated to be an effective method of birth control 88
percent of the time.
■ Female Condom — This may give some protection against sexually transmitted diseases, but it is not as effective as latex condoms.
Female condoms are estimated to be an effective method of birth control 79 percent of the time.
Diaphragm with spermicide
— Diaphragms protect against cervical infections, and spermicide may give some protection against chlamydia and gonorrhea.
Diaphragms are estimated to be an effective method of birth control R2 percent of the time.
Cervical cap with spermicide — The spermicide may give some protection against chlamydia and gonorrhea. Cervical caps are estimated to be an effective method of birth control 64 to 82 percent of the time.
Rock said that probably most of them would return to school healthy.
"My guess is that if you survey all 25,000 students, you will find a silent majority that doesn't significantly increase their at-risk behavior during this time." Rock said. "My best advice is to look at spring break as a gift and invest the wisely."
Professors have plans to relax and work

Faculty will catch up while pupils are gone
So, where are you going for spring break?
By Meghan Bainum Special to the Korea
College students hear that question many times between the beginning of the spring semester and that magical week in March when school grinds to a halt.
What most students don't consider is
that they are not the only part of KU affected by spring break. Contrary to popular opinion, professors don't freeze in place at the front of the classroom waiting for the moment students return to spring that pop quiz. Nor do they spend all week in Watson Library searching for arcane questions to put on students' finals.
"Professors probably need a break more than students do," said Dennis Dailey, professor of social welfare.
KU

said he thought professors definitely needed a break.
Jeff Folger, Topeka junior, said, he thought students needed a break more than professors.
Most students have jobs and work, he said, while professors just have their work.
Regardless of who is most in need of time off, professors choose any number of ways to spend their week away from the daily grind of classes and responsibilities.
Malcolm Gibson, assistant professor of journalism, plans to visit a friend at Oklahoma State University and take a breather from classes.
Mark Holmberg, assistant professor of music theory said, "I personally am just going to stay in Lawrence. I'm going to clean out the garage, read a couple of books and do my income taxes. Spring break is my quiet time."
"I will maybe take a two or three-day trip somewhere to get out of town. Then I'm helping to run a meeting here of other chemistry teachers for all the colleges in Kansas," Everett said.
He said the meeting happened once a year, and the location changed each year. This year it happens to be the University's turn to host the meeting, he said.
As with students, professors' ideal spring break plans are sometimes different than reality.
David Holmes, professor of psychology,
said he saw spring break as an opportunity
for uninterrupted work — but his dream
vacation would be much different.
"If I could go anywhere, there is an island down in the British Virgins — Virgin Gorda." Holmes said.
He said that he would sail there.
"That is a great island to sail from because it is the last island in the chain, and there is nothing between you and France." he said.
But Holmes said he wouldn't want to be away from work very long.
"I'd take my notebook computer with me and work while I was there anyway," he said.
If students aren't able to picture their sylabus-silving calculus professor partying on Padre Island, Texas, they can picture professors at home enjoying the break
Jackyn Naster, Leawood freshman, said,
"I bet they catch up on whatever they need
to get caught up on then chill, lay around
and not do a thing. That's what I would do
if I was a professor."

Students to spend break helping
Volunteer program entices workers to build houses
By Lisa Stevens John Special to The Kansan
For one group of KU students heading to the mountains during spring break, it's not just the lure of skiing that's pulling them westward — it's the lure of volunteering.
Brian Tongier, Lawrence junior,
and Rachel Seidle, Tulsa sophomore,
are two of approximately 10
students who plan to pack their
sleeping bags and spend their
spring break in the Denver suburb
of Lakewood building houses for
Habitat for Humanity.
Tongier and Seidle are accustomed to spending their spring breaks wielding hammers during the day and camping in church basements at night.
"I've been involved in this type of thing for five years, since I was a junior in high school," Tongier said. Seidle, a biology major and a member of the KU Women's Rugby team, finds time to do volunteer work not only on spring break, but also in
Lawrence during the semester. Two mornings a week, she helps serve hot breakfast to the homeless at the Jubilee Cafe, Trinity Episcopal Church.
Like Tongjie, Seidle began doing volunteer work when young.
"I started doing this in high school," she said. "I went with church groups to Mexico, Texas and Arizona."
Seidle said projects she has worked on included constructing houses and even fences.
It is definitely a learn-on-the-job type of work for those who are unfamiliar with carpentry, Tongier said.
"When I first showed up, I had no clue as to what I was doing," he said. "I have a rough idea now — I'm better, but I still wouldn't classify myself as skilled."
He has plenty of company. Tongier estimated that during this spring break, approximately 5,000 students will be working on Habitat for Humanity projects across the United States.
"Most of the projects are concentrated in the South because that's where people want to go for spring break," Tongler said. "Also, the mission of Habitat is to eliminate poverty housing, and within the United States, a lot of poverty housing is in the South."
No matter where they're built, the houses are much the same,Tongler said.
"We usually build a one-level structure, and there are about ten general floor plans that they tend to follow at every site."
Volunteers usually do the work that does not require union or highly skilled labor, he said.
What Tongier likes about Habitat for Humanity is that the future homeowners are involved in the construction of the homes.
"It's not a handout program," he said. "The people who are receiving the home help build it, and they actually wind up buying it. Because so much of the labor and the materials are donated, a house valued at $70,000 can be purchased for $40,000."
Tongier said one of the best things about working in Colorado last year during spring break was that he became friends with the woman who bought the house they were building.
"We've kept in touch and I hope to see her again this year," he said.
The Denver trip is one of five alternative spring breaks sponsored or co-sponsored by Ecumenical Christian Ministries this year. Thad Holcombe, ECM pastor, said that during most years about 50 University
of Kansas students participate in these programs.
"They come back changed because they've been in a different setting, in a different culture, and they've learned new skills." Holcombe said. "They come back with a different perspective on who they are."
Tongier agreed. Without a doubt, Tongier said he found that kind of spring break to be worth his while.
"I've never been much into the traditional spring break scene, it's never appealed to me," he said. "This kind of spring break gives people an opportunity to participate in community service and lets them have some of the traditional spring break experiences as well."
By traditional, Tongier said this means he plans to spend a little time on the Colorado slopes while out there.
He chuckled and said, "I've never skied before, so this should be interesting."
Seidle, whose parents recently moved to Colorado, said she hoped to be able to see them during spring break.
She also said that she was looking forward to getting out in the snow. But she's taking a different tactic. "Skiing is so expensive," she said. "I think I'll go snowshoeing instead."

Class plans to send spring breakers to cities for service-oriented alternative
By Kursten Phelps Special to Kansan
As spring break approaches, many students are packing their swimsuits, sunscreen and sunglasses and are searching for sunny skies and warm beaches.
But more than 100 KU students are preparing for a different kind of vacation experience: Alternative Spring Break
ASB is a service-oriented program that was established at KU in 1994. E.J. Reedy, co-executive director and Topeka sophomore, said the program was educational even though it took place during a school break.
"ASB is really about allowing students to have a meaningful experience on spring break and to learn something they can hopefully apply at KU and in their lives." Reedy said. "Many of us are so busy with our normal lives, it's difficult to do community service. So spring break is a nice time for students to give a lot to a community."
Reedy said that the program had expanded during the last few years.
"The idea of doing community service over spring break is a more recent phenomenon around college campuses," said Reedy. "We have a strong program here. In fact, we've doubled in size — 110 participants — from last year alone."
Participants will travel to one of 11 sites around the United States and work with certain agencies and programs for the week. The sites are divided into four main topical areas: hunger and homelessness, education, multiculturalism and environmentalism.
Students can work in Harlem, N.Y.; Washington; Chicago; Detroit; Philadelphia; South Carolina; Tahlequa, Okla.; El Paso, Texas; Arizona; Kentucky or Kirtland, Ohio.
Reedy first participated in ASB last year. "I think I was feeling a bit overwhelmed at KU — I was trying to get involved, but I felt like I didn't have time to do community service," Reedy said. "I thought ASB was a great way to do some service and meet a lot of cool and diverse people."
Participants pay $155, and site leaders pay $80, which covers about half of the program expenses. Donations finance the remainder of ASB's budget.
Ameshia Tubbs, Lawrence junior, said she wanted the challenge of being a site leader in Detroit.
"I did ASB '97, and it's such a great experience. I got so much out of the interaction with everyone — my group members and the people I worked with at the site," Tubbs said. "This year, I wanted that extra challenge of being responsible for the well-being of 10 other people as a site leader."
Throughout the spring semester, ASB participants have been preparing for their trips by attending a required weekly class. Human Development and Family Life 606: Special Projects in the Community.
Sally Frost Mason, dean of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, teaches the course. Students can take it for zero, one or two hours of credit.
Reedy said students learned about and discussed social issues, cultural sensitivity, conflict and other issues that pertained to their trips. He said the new information would make the experience the best it could possibly be.
"I think they're doing a really good job this year with the class," said Mark Bradshaw, Walnut junior.
Bradshaw is taking the course for one hour of credit.
"It's twice as big as it was last year, and they're doing a phenomenal job of coping with that. We've had some really good discussions," he said.
Anna Williams, Powell, Wyo., freshman, said she was looking forward to her first ASB trip to Kirtland, Ohio.
THE SECOND SESSION
"It will be cool to get to see that part of the country and to see their way of life on the reservation compared to life in Kansas," he said.
"I'm excited because I'll be doing something worthwhile, and since it's an environmental site. We'll be working outdoors in parks, cleaning, rebuilding and things like that — which is something I like to do," said Williams.
Bradshaw, who is traveling to Arizona to volunteer at the Navajo Nation, said he was excited for his trip for several reasons.
"It will also be good because even though it is a multicultural site, it involves a lot of environmental aspects," he said. "I will be able to see how Native Americans relate to

their environment, which is something I'm interested it."
Reedy said that by performing service work, participants gained personal fulfillment.
"People always say that by doing things like this, you're giving back to the community," he said. "But I think, at the same time, you're taking away a lot of beneficial things about yourself — seeing other parts of the country and being part of a team."
Tubbs said, "It's a life-changing experience. I'd highly recommend it, especially to someone who has never done community service, someone who's never come out of their comfort zone or someone who's never seen poor people.
"It's eye-opening. When you're there, you're vulnerable, you're an outsider and you really see what life can be like. There's no way I'd miss it."

Agencies and Internet offer travel information
By Paula Spreitzer
Special to the Kansar
Whether students are in the mood to take a tropical getaway to Jamaica or to hit the slopes of the Colorado Rockies, local travel agencies can help plan the ideal spring break vacation.
1risha Boeken, travel consultant at Destinations Unlimited, 7 W. 11th St., said her goal was to get customers where they wanted to go within their budget.
The cost of a vacation depends on several factors, including destination, the number of people going and the length of the trip, said Boeken.
One of the cheapest places to go is Jamaica, said Liz Wilson, travel agent at Sunflower Carlson Wagonlit, 800 Massachusetts St.
A trip to Jamaica can cost between $450 and $750, she said.
Students can save money when they go to Jamaica if they stay in a hotel downtown rather than on the beach. Wilson said staying at the beach was more expensive because everyone wanted to be there.
An alternative to planning a vacation through a travel agent is making reservations online. Carlson Wagonlit is one agency that offers the com
venience of making travel arrangements on the Web.
at the Carlson Wagonlit Web site, http://www.enquest.com. net surfers can make airline, hotel and car rental reservations from their home computers. Once the reservations are made, vacationers can arrange to pick up their tickets at the nearest Carlson Wagonlit location.
Wilson said that the packages available on the Internet didn't differ much from other offers.
"I've seen a lot of fliers on campus, such as Student Travel Service, and they offer similar pricing to what you can get online," Wilson said.
One advantage of making reservations online is the added convenience of being able to make reservations at any time of the day.
"You can do it late at night if you feel like it," said Carolyn Yang, Overland Park freshman.
Yang also found it helpful to look at the selection of options available.
"You can just type in a keyword, like Disney World, and look through all of the packages and find the better deal," she said.
Carlson Wagonlit isn't the only Web site where students can make vacation plans.
Microsoft Expedia Travel Services
http://expedia.msn.com, has photographs of hotel options and information about special rates and ways to save on trips.
Another site, Travellers.
n    c
|
[ n c
http://www.copilot.com/travellers, sells luggage online as well as offering information about booking a trip.
Whether students decide to call a travel agent or explore their vacation options on the Web, it's not too late to plan a spring break getaway, Boeken said. But she said space was limited.
"We're still getting last-minute calls," she said. "There are some spots available on charters, but space is very limited."
To have a full range of options, Boeken suggested planning ahead.
"A lot of people start planning before Christmas, some even in September or October," she said.
When calling, clients need to know where they want to go, how many people are going with them and how much they want to spend.
"If you don't know where you want to go, know what you like to do." Boeen said.

Expert reminds KU students to take precautions abroad
By Kate Williams Special to the Kansan
Everyone has heard the spring break horror stories.
Wandering the streets at midnight in a country where a different language is spoken, getting a hotel room that comes complete with cockoaches and a local street gang outside or returning home to find hundreds of dollars in cash missing.
For college students, a week off in March provides an opportunity for sun, fun and travel. But it also can lead to a variety of disasters.
1. Start with a company or travel agent that is legitimate and that has plenty of experience with planning student trips.
To ensure that spring break is everything that it promises to be, and not the worst vacation ever, John Novotny, vice-president of operations for Travelers, Inc., 831 Massachusetts, offered the following advice:
Matt Jameson, Dallas sophomore, said he planned to travel to Jamaica with a group of 15 friends during spring break. He said he relied on his friend's mother, who is a travel agent, to make all of the necessary arrangements.
someone else or trying to plan everything oursels," Jameson said. "It's her job, so we knew that she knew what she was doing and that we could trust her."
"I felt a lot more comfortable having her do it rather than hiring
2. Verify that the transportation to and from the destination and the airport is reliable — especially if it is not already included in a packaged deal.
"I knew some people who went to Cancun one year and ended up having to pool money to buy gas so that their plane could make it back to the States," said Brian Hagenhoff, St. Louis junior.
?
Make sure that the hotel is in a good neighborhood with rooms and a staff that make students feel comfortable. Inquire about security features at check in or preferably when making reservations.
Michelle Brown, Salina senior,
followed Novotny's advice when
she decided where she would stay
for spring break.
"Our hotel won't let anyone who isn't a registered guest past the lobby, and all guests must wear bracelets that identify them as guests," she said.
4. Don't take large amounts of cash, use traveler's checks or credit cards whenever possible and check any valuable items into the hotel

takes in order and in a secure price.
"Having your passport in you
back pocket at all times is not
a good idea," Novotny said.
5. Be wary of purchasing tickets for any activities that aren't sponsored by a hotel or a reputable company. This includes everything from guided tours and adventure sports to "booze" cruises and beach parties.
"I went on a booze cruise once in Cancun where everyone ended up getting food poisoning." Hagenhoff said.
6. Finally and most importantly, use common sense. Make sure that everyone has contacts that can be reached in case of an emergency. Have a basic knowledge of the area and its laws and ordinances. Traveling in groups and keeping track of friends can eliminate many dangerous situations.
"My friends and I have already talked about making sure that we all stick together and not let anyone go off alone," Brown said.
Novotny said, "All of these are things that would be important for a weekend in Kansas City, but for college students on spring break, they are a must."

Working: another option for break
Special to the Kansan
For University of Kansas students, spring break could have many definitions including extra work hours, relaxation or a vacation from campus life.
By Kerry Curtis
Some students must save or ask for money from their parents to go on vacations while others may enjoy the break from classes at home.
A large number of students use spring break to pad their banking account by working extra hours at their jobs.
Ryan Benlon, Shawnee sophomore, said he normally worked one day a week for 15 hours at Applebee's Neighborhood Bar and Grill in Lenexa but planned to work between 50 and 70 hours during spring break.
Nathan Herron, Hesston sophomore, and Amber Summert, Larned senior, both said they hoped to spend time with their significant others.
Smith, who normally works 15 hours a week, will be planning her wedding during spring break.
wedding
She said taking time off from work usually did not create problems with her employer because there were many full-time, non-student employees.
Herron, who normally works eight to 10 hours a week, hopes to travel home for the break. He said that 50 percent of the employees at the Prairie Room restaurant in the Kansas Union were part-time employees and KU students.
"I When the students aren't there, there is a noticeable difference," he said.
Stuart Peck, Derby junior, said he planned to work the first half of the week and then take a break.
Jennifer Hitz, assistant manager at The Buckle, 805 Massachusetts St., said all of the student employees at the store were scheduled to work. She said that some may ask to receive half the week off or one of the weekends.
Chuck Mager, manager at Free State Brewery, said the restaurant employed about 35 KU students. He said the only problem with allowing student employees to take a vacation was scheduling new shifts for those who stay.
Mageri said that he would try to make sure employees realize that
Many area restaurants, such as Free State Brewery, 636 Massachusetts St., and Applebee's Neighborhood Grill and Bar, 2520 Iowa St. give students the option of working or taking the week off.
when the KU schedule changes, their work schedules may not change.
Jennifer Moon, manager at Applebee's, said about 98 percent of its employees were KU students. Veteran workers are able to go on vacation, but newer workers usually are asked to stay and work, doubling their hours.
Steven Dale, manager of Gumby's Pizza, 1445 W.23rd St., has four KU students working and said that they probably would not work during the break. Although the schedule hasn't been made, Dale said he was not worried about the possible shortage of staff because Gumby's did not receive very much business during spring break.

Massachusetts St., employs four
students as well. Manager Jenn McKn-
night said that probably all of the

She said that business at the store increases during spring break because some people stay in Lawrence.
Although the four student employees deliver pizzas, the full-time workers will be able to cover for the students.

Special to the Kansan
It was supposed to be the perfect spring break getaway for Amy Ulsh, Overland Park freshman, and her friend last March.
Ulsh and her companion were seniors at Olathe East high school and planned to go Puerto Rico for spring break.
Neither Ulsh nor her friend could have predicted the disastrous turns their vacation took
Ushid did not book her vacation through a travel agency. But John Henley of Sunsplash Tours said her predicament was unusual.
"I'd never been there before, but a mutual friend of ours, Eric Barretto, was from there, and he said it would be a spectacular vacation. So we thought, 'Hev, why not?' "Ulsh said.
"They had quite the crazy vacation," he said. "I've never heard of anything like that happening before. Plane delays aren't too uncommon But other than that, the worst I've been is that the traveler became sick."
Ush said they checked into a beautiful, little hotel near the beach. They had a great view, and the sun and weather were nice.
The first night, they decided to go to a bar nearby and have a few drinks. Uls said they were just sitting at the bar when local residents pushed into the bar carrying a body.
"At first, we thought it was some kind of joke or just part of the entertainment." Ush said.
But she said it became clear that there was no ruse. The body was really a tourist who had received a severe knife slashing but was not killed.
Ush said there had been a lunatic running around the local hotels, peeking in windows and harassing tourists. She said the authorities believed he was responsible for the attack.
"We stuck around and watched the cops and medics take him away, and then we went back to our room. But you can't just forget something like that. It's the worst possible thing that could have happened." Ulsh said.
She said she was afraid to leave her hotel room the next day, even when her travel companion offered her reassurance.
Ulsh said things returned to normal, and after a couple days of lounging on the beach they rented a jeep.
The manager at their hotel told them that tourists loved seeing the old-fashioned farms, and the scenery was supposed to be just beautiful.
After a picnic beside a waterfall, Ulsh insisted on driving the lee.
"I was having fun and driving way too fast. We came around this turn and ran right into a cow. It was like watching a movie, I had no control over anything that was happening."
Ulsh said.
The good news — Ulsh and her friend were unharmed. The bad news — it was over for the cow and the jeep. They were stranded in the middle of nowhere, but they were able to flag down a fruit-laden truck.
After settling things with the car rental agency the next day, Ulsh decided to spend her remaining time in Puerto Rico relaxing on the beach.
"It may be hard to believe, but even after all we'd been through, we were starting to enjoy ourselves again." Ulsh said.
Their final day on the island, Uish and her friend packed and headed for the airport.
During the hour that they had been inside the airport waiting, a thick fog had descended on that part of the island. All flights were indefinitely delayed. Ulsh said no one told them about the fog until after they had already checked in and passed through customs and airport security.
"They told us that if we left, we would lose our seats on the plane." Ulsh said.
After 16 hours in an airplane lounge and the worst food Ulsh said she had ever had, they were allowed to board the plane and head home.
When they arrived at the airport in Miami, they were required to go through customs. Customs officials, along with beagles, were circulating among the passengers as they picked up their luggage. The beagles detected something in Ulsh's companion's luggage.
Ninety minutes later, customs officials discovered a stash of fruit in the luggage.
"That's the point where I suddenly realized I was traveling with a nut case," Ulsh said. "It was just the most ridiculous thing I had ever seen."
After customs confiscated the fruit, they were allowed to make a mad dash for their connecting flight.
Fall break would relieve students weary of classes
By Joe McPeek Special to the Kansan
Then reality sets in: spring break does not come until second semester. And for students just beginning a new school year in August, ahead lies the longest stretch of break-free classes: 56 straight class days.
Hearing these names, college students eyes begin to shine, and they dream about the possibilities offered by spring break.
Padre, Daytona Beach, Cancun.

The proposed fall break is designed to give students an opportunity to take time off from classes and relax.
"It's good to split up the time frame. It gets pretty monotonous going to classes for all of those weeks without a break," ScottDCoursey, Belton junior said.
The break would offer two days of vacation in mid-October, giving students a break before winter vacation.
"It'll give freshmen a little extra time to get acclimated to the whole University. It'll also be interesting to see if the University offers some kind of an 'alternative' fall break, like they do with spring break," he said.
Carol Holstead, associate professor of journalism and calendar committee member said that because the break would only be two days, it would not be enough time to make big plans.
The proposed break is not scheduled to take effect until 2011, but Holstead said that the committee would try to move it up to the fall 2000 semester.
"It sounds like a wonderful idea, but I don't know how I'd spend it," said Kelly Sweeney, Parsons sophomore. "It would depend on how the teachers treat the break and if they assign work as they do with Thanksgiving break. That would be the difference between relaxing and studying on the time off."
DeCoursey also mentioned that some people might skip the rest of the week of classes.
"I'm sure that would have to be a concern, but that's the same with any extended weekend." he said.
The break proposal is awaiting approval from Provost David Shulenburger and Chancellor Robert Hemenway. The University Council approved the break on Feb. 11.

SUA no longer will be sponsor of trips during spring vacation
By Tiffany Seeman Special to the Kanran
Special to the Kansan
Thinking of heading off for some fun in the sun this spring break? Well, you won't be going anywhere through Student Union Activities.
In previous years, SUA has sponsored student spring break trips to popular beaches such as Panama City Beach or Daytona Beach. Fla. SUA organized trips that included transportation and hotel rooms for students at affordable rates. Last year, students were able to go by bus, including hotel accommodations. for $300.
"Our trip last year was to a great location, and it was a good price," said Ashley Maurin, Kansas City, Kan., sophomore, who went to Panama City Beach.
a spring break trip.
Howard Lubliner, SUA recreation coordinator, said that it was a concern for SUA to sponsor activities that possibly could put students in danger.
"SUA and the Union Corporation Board did not want to sponsor events that are pure binge drinking trips," he said.
But, this year, SUA is not sponsoring
Lubliner said because there were so many advertisements for spring break trips around campus, there was not a need for another trip through SUA.
Lubliner also said that trips were not canceled because SUA was losing money.
Jeff LaCroix, SUA vice president for University relations, said that the main concern was that the spring break trips did not provide a unique opportunity for students, one of SUA's goals.

Students must schedule around jobs to take trips
By Jason Walker
OK, so you're going to some tropical paradise for spring break. The reservations have been made. You've started to go tanning. The swimming trunks have been broken out of the closet.
Special to the Kansan
Now comes the hard part getting your boss to let you off work.
For some KU students, spring break is no problem. Most campus jobs shut down. But for others who work elsewhere in town, it takes a little bit of effort to get a week's vacation.
Beth Garwick, Manhattan junior, said she hoped to get time off from her job at Applebee's, 2520 S. Iowa, but her coworkers might not be so lucky.
"It depends on seniority and whether or not you worked over Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year's," she said.
Garwick worked the earlier breaks and wants to go to Florida with her family during spring break.
"I can't wait," she said. "It's going to be a blast."
Lynley Budinas, supervisor at Applebee's, said about 80 percent of her employees were students, but not everyone was going on a vacation.
"There is a solid number of students that want to stay and pick up extra shifts," she said. "But we try to accommodate the students that want to get off."
Budinas graduated from the University in December. She remembers what it was like to work while going to school.
"It is tough to balance school and work," she said. "Students deserve a break."
Some businesses that cater
mostly to students shut down completely during the break. Rob Farha, owner of The Wheel Cafe, 507 W. 14th St., sald so much of his business came from students that it wasn't practical to be open during breaks.
"Almost all of our business comes from the Oread neighborhood," he said. "And about 90 percent of that is students who walk to get here."
Courtney Herrera, Leawood senior and The Wheel employee, said she would take advantage of the bar being closed during the break so she could go to Jamaica.
"This way I am able to go on vacation and don't have to worry," she said.
Charles Guana, assistant manager at Dillons, 1740 Massachusetts St., said that it wasn't a problem for student employees to have time off during break as long as it worked out in the schedule.
"It's good for students to have a break in the school year so they don't get burned out," he said.
Brad Bolyard, Olathe sophomore, works as an intramurals supervisor at Recreation Services and plans to take advantage of having spring break free from work.
"I'm going to Padre for the week," he said. "And I'm pumped. I went when I was a senior in high school, and I can't wait to go back."
Bolyard said that students deserved a break as long as they didn't have any responsibilities to handle and that they should go on a vacation if they can.
"I think it is a good life experience to see different parts of the country," he said.
March a time for dieting, tanning
By Becky Lake Special to the Kansan

As spring break rapidly approaches, students are faced once again with the prospect of displaying their bodies in swimming suits.
The process of endless tanning, dieting and working out has begun for many students who fear that winter lured their bodies to a state not appropriate for public display.
Jennifer Bacani, Fredonia freshman, was very aware that spring break was just around the corner.
"My friends and I joined a health club because we're going to Key Largo, and we've got to look good in our bathing suits," she said. "We also are watching what we eat."
Brebekah Walker, Overland Park freshman, said that in preparation for her previous spring break, she watched what she ate as well. She said the transition from winter to spring was a reason a winter of people dieted for spring break.
"You've been eating all winter, and it didn't matter, because you've been hiding your fat under clothes," she said.
While some students felt pressure to get in shape for midMarch, others considered working out to be a lifestyle rather than a temporary attempt for the perfect body.
"If you're going to diet, you should do it for permanency and health — not just to look good in a bikini and attract guys," Janet Strauss, Lawrence freshman, said.
Lindsay Douglas, Chesterfield,
Mo., sophomore, agreed. She said
spring break did not alter her
already-established workout plans.
"I don't think there's pressure to look good for spring break because I try to look my best all the time," she said.
In addition to the pressure to workout and diet, many students head to the tanning salon to prepare themselves for their tropical destinations.
Mike Rappaport, Minneapolis sophomore, said he traditionally went tanning in preparation for spring break.
"You want to tan because you don't want to walk around on the beach the first day of spring break white," he said.
However Tim Hansen, Lenexa senior, said he was not impressed by fake tans.
"I think fake tans look gross," he said. "It's February, and girls are orange. No. 1, who are you fooling? And No. 2, it just looks bad."
Some students found that where they were going for spring break made a difference in whether they went tanning.
"The reason I'm not tanning is I'm going home, and Michigan is really cold in March," said Carrie Parmenter, East Lansing, Mich. freshman. "I will not be wearing a bikini."
While there is a lot of pressure for students to look flawless this spring break, not all students are engaging in a last-ditch attempt to attain perfection.
Ann Mari Kauffman, Overland Park freshman, said she did not buy into that attitude.
"I don't think I need to impress anybody," she said. "I am who I am, and I don't need to change that."

Ideal Break: "Probably one where I wouldn't have to worry about money and there were plenty of guys in bathing suits." Nightmare Break: "It's probably going to be this one because I'm probably going to have to stay in Kansas."

Jesse Kibort St. Paul, Minn., junior
Ideal: "Skiing in Lake Tahoe. I did that, and it was great."
Nightmare: "Going to Mexico and getting sick and not participating in the whole spring break."

Students seeking money for break
By Scott Zerger Special to the Kansan
Local businesses' seasonal headaches have set in: Students looking for extra spring break money are applying for jobs that they may not keep after the break.
TABLE SERVICE
Many students realize when they return for winter break that they are short on cash with their spring break plans hanging in the balance. Some KU students are forced to find jobs and make some fast cash.

Some employers say these employees tend to be less serious about their jobs compared with those hired at other times during the year.
Ryan Dill. Junction City senior, has worked at Pizza Hut, 1606 W. 23rd St., for two years and is currently an assistant manager. Dill said that there were usually two or three people that quit after spring break. He said that usually led to the restaurant being understaffed after spring break.
"They usually don't stay very long and usually don't give notice that they are quitting," he
said. "It's frustrating after you've spent time and money on training a person."
Shawnna Eaton, assistant manager of Barb Wire Steak House 2412 Iowa St., said that most new employees worked until summer. She said the restaurant recently had hired two new employees.
"There are a few who make it very clear that they are only working temporarily and don't show up after spring break," Eaton said.
Matt Dougan, Spring Hill freshman, said he applied for his job in order to earn cash for his spring break trip to Panama City. But he said he planned to continue working as a cook at Buffalo Bob's Smoke House, 719 Massachusetts St. after the break.
He said that even though restaurants have problems with high turnover during the spring, he hadn't had problems finding a job.
job. "I turned in eight applications and got offered three jobs," Dougan said.
Wade Oden, bartender at Old Chicago, 2329 Iowa St., said the restaurant recently had hired 10
new employees. He said that the number of applicants had doubled since the beginning of the semester.
semester.
"There are usually a few that are lower quality than our normal new hires, but they usually don't come back after spring break." Oden said.
Richard Stephenson. Merriam sophomore, said he still was looking for a job.
"I'll take any job I can get my hands on right now." Stephenson
said.
This is the second year Stephenson has been forced to find a job to pay for spring break, he said.
This is the second year Stephenson has been forced to find a job to pay for spring break, he said.
Stephenson said he quit his valet job last year at Harrah's Hotel and Casino, I Riverboat Drive in Kansas City, Mo., after he went to South Padre Island, Texas.
This year he said he planned to keep the job he hopes to find for the remainder of the semester.

Beach communities to curb rowdy,partying scholars
The Associated Press
It's spring break time and that usually means sun, sand, surf and suds as the young scholars make traditional pilgrimages to their favorite stretch of beach and bars.
Because many popular seashore communities pull out all the stops to attract students, some have devised some new ways to try to control the rowdiness.
The Gulf Coast beach community in Panama City Beach, Fla., rowdy students could end up in Spring Break Court. The idea is to allow those charged with misdemeanors such as underage drinking to spend a day doing community service — such as picking up litter
— to avoid arrest records and fines. They also must wear an orange vest with "Bay County Jail" across the back.
Dan Stark, head of the local convention and visitor's bureau, said that last year, a couple of students, who were happy not to have a permanent blot on their records, said "thank you."
But don't expect Panama City Beach to go the way of Fort Lauderdale or Daytona Beach, Fla., officials said. In the two Florida cities, some residents were so fed up with rowdiness that they demanded crackdowns that included zero-tolerance for lawbreakers and bans on beach drinking. The hard-line policies drove many students to Panama City Beach.
The Panhandle city usually sees about 500,000 visitors during March. Stark said they were welcome, even if a few did get out of hand.
"We're working to foster a good image of spring break," he said.
Affordable prices and proximity to colleges in the Northeast and Southeast make Panama City Beach popular, Stark said, but for
a growing number of students distance is no longer an object.
Cancun, Mexico. is the top seller this year at Surf & Sun Tours.
As of mid-February, the tour operator had sold 20,000 airline seats, a 97 percent sellout, to Cancun, said Shawn Andreas, vice president of marketing.
With traffic up for Cancun, it's down about 20 percent for Florida destinations. Because of Florida's unpredictable weather, students don't want to risk missing the sun, Andreas said.
Away from the ocean, Black College Spring Break in Atlanta, which is during the third weekend in April, welcomes African-American students from around the country.
"Atlanta is the Mecca for African Americans all over the country," said mayoral spokesman Nick Gold. "It's the birthplace of the civil rights movement."
The challenge is keeping it a college-only activity. Gold said.
There also is an Alternative Spring Break that sends students to do community service throughout the country. The University of Michigan program has grown from 15 students and two sites in 1989 to 470 students and 42 sites now. There's a $75 application fee, but demand has outstripped available space.
The students produce 20,000 hours of community service ranging from work in urban rehabilitation, rural poverty and AIDS.
"Alternative Spring Break works to break down stereotypes," said Albert Muzaurietta, Michigan senior and fund-raising coordinator. "It helped me to focus on what I want to do with the rest of my life."
He said the motto explains it perfectly: "Spring break breaks a week
— Alternative Spring Break lasts a lifetime.
Internet allows browsers access to maps for travel historical information
ay Ted Anthony AP National Writer
In the old TV sitcom sight gag, the man trying to take his family on vacation gets lost and exasperated. At wits' end, he consults a folding road map, which turns out to be his worst enemy. Finally, desperately, he tries to fold it again to no avail.
On the Internet, the maps don't need to be folded. And they offer myriad other advantages.
Cyberspace offers ample map attractions for the armchair traveler and the trip planner alike — a wealth of cartographic information to fit any need, much of it printable and far more intuitive than the uncooperative piece of paper from the corner service station.
Yahoo! Maps offers an instantaneous way to map anywhere in the United States in seconds. Located at maps.yahoo.com, it features zoom functions and the ability to both create driving directions and search an extensive database of nearby businesses for services you're seeking. It even features a special version for your printer.
The DeLorme CyberAtlas (atlas.delorme.com/atlas.asp), by one of the nation's foremost mappakers, offers a graphically appealing database of the nation, available in even more detail — much like the company's popular map software, only it's scaled down and free. You can't plan elaborate trips, but the maps are wonderfully laid out and also allow zooming.
political. An interesting alternative is the University of Minnesota's Maps in the News (www.map.lib.umn.edu/news.html), which features maps penged on current events. A recent visit turned up maps of Kosovo, Kurdish rebellion locations and the site of the recent European avalanche.
For world travelers, Atlapedia (www.atlapedia.com) contains an A-to-Z database of nations and searchable maps both physical and
One of the Web's most established mapping sites is Xerox's PARC map viewer of the world (mapweb.parc.xerox.com/map/), which allows both zooming and searching by geographic coordinates. You also can link to the Geographic Name Server, which searches U.S. locations by name.
for another great resource, try the National Atlas of the United States of America (www.atlas.usgs.gov) for official maps from the U.S. Geological Survey. The site includes the popular topographic maps used by hikers and climbers, and you can even design a map to your own specifications.
Finally, the Web offers an ample supply of historical maps.
A historical atlas of the 20th century (www.erols.com/mwhite28/20centry.htm) serves up maps on every topic from the Cold War era to religious conflict to, most curiously, maps of earthquakes and accidents through history.
And not to be missed is the online map collections of the Library of Congress' American Memory Project (memory.loc.gov/ammem/gmdhtm/gmdhome.html), selections from the library's collection that span five centuries.
Maps have always had two relationships with travel; motivator and substitute. Map resources on the Internet serve both those desires with ease and depth.
Old Southern town serves Sunshine State as historic capital
By Jeffrey McMurray The Associated Press
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. — Sharks and dolphins don't swim here.
Cartoon mice and spinning tracurs are nowhere to be found.
a lousy place to put Florida's capital? Tallahassee residents don't think so.
The Sunshine State stretches farther south than any other in the continental United States. So, they reason, why not save at least one of Florida's old Southern towns from the fate of tourist traps and amusement parks?
And with the Capitol building as insurance that it will never be annexed into Georgia, Tallahassee seefs that仁致 nicely.
In fact, this Panhandle town of fewer than 150,000 people is closer to the largest metropolitan areas of six other states than it is to the Miami area, home of Florida's largest city. New Orleans; Jackson, Miss.; Birmingham, Ala.; Columbia, S.C.; Charlotte, N.C., and Atlanta are all closer.
Less than 30 minutes from Georgia to the north and the Gulf of Mexico to the south, Tallahassee provides a blend of Southern hospitality and bustling tourists on their way to the beach.
Not to mention football fans.
Not to mention football fans.
But although football is Tallahassee's premier attraction in the fall, just as politics is in the spring, it's the area's natural beauty and historic sites that keep residents satisfied.
A drive toward Georgia tunnels through a thick canopy of moss-covered oak trees. If the shade doesn't cause travelers to forget they are in the Sunshine State, reminders of the Old South along the way surely will.
Nestled in the forest about 12 miles north of Tallahassee is Bradley's Country Store, which has been there longer than many of the trees. Grandma Mary Bradley began selling sausage from her kitchen in 1910 and then from the store after it was built in 1927. It became a popular stop for Southern travelers.
But Janet Bradley Fryzel, Grandma Bradley's great-grand-daughter and the store's third owner, says fame is the only reason the business has survived.
"When people think of Florida they think of beaches and palm trees and Disney World," Fryzel said. "This is about as far south as you can go without getting into that image. But if we didn't make sausage, we would have been closed down years ago."
There are other Southern monuments still standing in Talahassea. Among them is Goodwood Plantation that dates from the 1840s, where slaves once raised cotton, corn and other crops on the 2,400 acres.
The Knott House, which has been restored to its 1928 appearance, provides a time capsule of Tallahassee, including Luella Knott's poetry about the home's Victorian Era furniture.
And the Riley House museum gives visitors a glimpse at the plight of middle-class African Americans from Reconstruction to the civil rights movement.
Not just the capital
Tallahassee is home to many
accommodations such as six
surrounding metropolitan areas and
the nearby Gulf of Mexico.

But there are far more ancient sites. Spanish explorer Hernando De Soto passed through Tallahassee in the winter of 1539, and it is widely believed this is where his men celebrated the first Christmas in North America.
About 15 miles south is Wakula State Park, perhaps one of the Panhandle's best-kep secrets. Its freshwater springs rank among the world's deepest, and the 3,000 acres of surrounding forest is home to a variety of birds, including inhua and osprey; turtles and alligators.
A guide on a glass-bottom boat tour will point out those species, as well as the filming sites for the black-and-white classics Tarzan and The Creature From the Black Lagoon.
"We do not compare ourselves with Orlando, which is a push-button kind of experience," said Charles Wright, executive director of the Leon County Tourist Development Council. "This is the kind of a place where a person has to be a participant in the activities."
A visit to town wouldn't be complete without a trip to the Maclay Gardens, the hands-on Odyssey Science Center or the Antique Car Museum, home of the Batmobile Michael Keaton drove around Gotham City.
But let's face it, few travel to Tallahassee to see a Batmobile. Politics is what drives this town.
According to the city's Chamber of Commerce, about 30 percent of the work force is employed by state government and another 9 percent works for local government. Those numbers don't factor in the thousands of lobbyists who are in town year-round.
But no major corporation has its national headquarters in Tallahassee. In fact, a hospital is the city's largest private employer.
With dogwoods and magnolias in bloom, few places boast a more pleasant spring. But Tallahassee can't escape Florida's sweltering summer heat, and the city is far enough inland that there's seldom a breeze from the Gulf of Mexico.
As Florida's growth continues to soar, so too does the population of its capital city. And while Tallahassee has been more conscious than most places about clinging to its Southern roots, historian Bill Rogers said the changes have been dramatic.
"This was once a swamp, a place of pestilence, a place where people thought they'd get rare diseases, which many of them did," Rogers said.
Now he figures life here is pretty pleasant.
But a bottle of sunscreen would
n't hurt.

Scuba diving classes send students to study underwater
By Sam Huss Special to the Kansan
Jeff Halloran slipped black fins over his feet and pulled a clear mask over his face.
Then, after receiving a thumbs-up from instructor Jim Jackson, he submerged beneath the water.
But Halloran was not surrounded by brightly colored fish in an electric blue ocean. He was in a chlorinated 85-degree pool at Mask-Snorkel-Fln.1301 east 25th St.
Halloran said he had a passion for adventure and was drawn immediately to a Mask-Snorkel-Fin advertisement.
Halloran, Topeka senior, is one of about 60 KU students taking scuba lessons at Mask-Snorkel-Fin this winter so they can explore lakes and oceans during the summer.
Jackson, the store's owner, said Mask-Snorkel-Fin was the only business in Lawrence that offered scuba lessons. He said he thought that was because he didn't believe there were any pool facilities large enough for scuba practice. Jackson initially tried to rent a pool, but there were no pools in town that suited his needs. So he built his own pool at a cost of more than $400,000.
The University of Kansas also offers a scuba diving class in Robinson Center that is worth two hours of credit. Mask-Snorkel-Fhi supplies the equipment for the class.
During the week, George Lottes teaches the
course. Lottes is the director of program coordination for Health, Sports and Exercise Sciences. On the weekend, an instructor from Mask-
Sporkel-Elin teaches the course.
Jackson said that his students appreciated exercise and that scuba diving was a tremendous aerobic workout.
He also said there was a higher level of environ mental awareness among students who like to explore the water wilderness.
Cindy Riley, Bethany senior, said more people enjoyed scuba diving in the ocean than in freshwater.
"I am definitely spoiled since diving in the Bahamas." Riley said.
She said she could spot a bass in fresh water with her flashlight and pet it like a dog. But Riley said in saltwater there could be 300 brightly colored fish in the area the size of a table top and the water was brilliantly blue.
Mask-Snorkel-Fin offers an introductory free session called Discover Scuba. At this session, Jackson provides a wet suit, this, mask, weight belt, buoyancy vest, air tank and regulator, and a short instructional presentation. The store's most popular and inexpensive program, it lasts for three weeks. Students are expected to attend two three-hour sessions each week for three weeks. The classes and books range from $200-$250. Students interested may call 749-0500 for more information.

THE STUDENT NEWSPAPER OF THE UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS
Student senators removed after excessive absences
(USPS 650-640)
By Nadia Mustafa
nmustafa@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Three student senators permanently were removed from their positions as senators and three student senators were permanently removed from their positions as University Council representatives last night because of excessive absences.
Danner Evans, Nunemaker senator; Mike Stern, journalism senator; and Jack Shay and Beatriz伊拉ra, off-campus senators, missed three or more Senate or committee meetings this semester.
Ibarra was the only senator who appealed her removal, and Student Executive Committee voted to reinstate her. She said that she was often late to meetings because she had to work.
Dion Jones, holdover senator; Erin Carlson, Nunemaker senator, and Todd Ormsbee, graduate senator, were removed from the University Council for missing three or more meetings this academic year or two or more this semester.
Jones, Carlson and Ormsbee will retain their positions as senators.
Julie Numrich, Senate executive chair, notified the senators of their suspensions from either Senate or University Council last Wednesday. The senators had a week to decide whether to appeal their suspensions at the StudEx meeting last night.
Numrigh said that Senate also had to replace many senators last spring.
Numrish also said that she was disturbed that three out of seven University Council representatives had not been regularly attending meetings. She said that their absences decreased student representation in University Council.
Senate voted to fill the University Council seats with Dave Stras, graduate senator; Aravind Mutuhkrishnan, Nunemaker senator, and Luke Pfannenstiel, All Scholarship Hall Council senator.
Armenian Numrich said that the appeals process allowed StudEx to either reinstate or remove suspended senators, depending
on whether they had legitimate excuses for their absences, such as forgetting to sign in at University Council meetings or religious holidays.
"StudEx has been pretty lenient in the past," she said. "If someone comes in, it means they want to be in Senate. If someone doesn't appeal, they probably have other responsibilities."
Numrich said that even though Senate elections were in April, she had to replace senators that were removed.
"Usually replacement senators are active committee members who know what's going on in Senate," she said. "It kind of stinks that they only have one month, but we have to have our Senate full."
—Edited by Clint Hooker
Applications for replacement senators are available in the Senate Office at the Organizations and Leadership Center in the Kansas Union, and are due March 12. Senate will conduct interviews March 16, and replacement senators will be approved by Senate March 17.
Student Senate votes to abolish fee increase
By Nadia Mustafa
mnstafa@kansan.com
kansan staff writer
Student Senate withdrew its support for a $2 fee increase last night.
In a 39-8 vote, Senate upheld Student
Body President Kevin Yoder's voe of the fee increase passed by Senate Feb. 17, which would have gone into effect if it had been approved by the administration and the Kansas Board of Regents.
Last week, KU administrators said they would not present the fee increase to the Regents. Also last week, Yoder

Yoder: Senate upheld his veto of a fee increase
Fund. The fund provides money to academic departments and campus groups for financial aid and student salaries.
Yoder said he supported the $8 portion of student fees allocated to the fund, but that it should not be increased because it was established in 1900 without the support of Senate or the student body.
He said the Campus Fee Review Subcommittee should conduct additional research and Senate should discuss the issue further.
"The process has been a little rushed," Yoder said. "We can't make policy because of time constraints. Senate spends too much time nit-picking on how many stamps a group uses and not looking at the big dog money."

Former intern says Clinton made her feel loved
Interview wins sympathy from few in TV audience
By T.J. Johnson Kansan staff writer
Amid some giggling and jokes about cigars, Americans and KU students had their first real chance to meet Monica Lewinsky last night during Barbara Walters' exclusive interview on ABC's 20/20.

From Lewinsky and President Clinton's first meeting to the details of the infamous blue dress and windowless corridor, the interview offered a look into the human side of the relationship between the president and his former intern. A group of

Throughout the interview, Lewinsky filled in the intimate and personal details that had been missing from the Office of the Independent Council report that was

closure:
Burdett Loomis, professor of political science,
watched parts of the interview at home and said that he found it curious.
During the interview, Walters revealed that Lewinsky had become pregnant by a man she had met in the Pentagon during her relationship with the president. Lewinsky had an abortion to terminate the pregnancy, according to her forthcoming book "Monica's Story".
"It was just strange. I was ready to see someone mature and heady, and I saw a lot of little schoolgirl." Loomis said. "Essentially it's entertainment."
when asked if she had ever thought about Hillary Clinton during the affair, Lewinsky said, "I did. I think I thought about her a lot, but I never thought she would find out. I was never going to talk about this publicly."
"It was the way he looked at me and the way he held me and the way he touched me. I think you feel that warmth with someone."
Lewinsky portrayed herself as a person with low self-worth, vulnerable to the situation she was placed in with the president.
She said that the president made her feel loved and acted as if he was in love with her.
Lewinsky took issue with the media's portrayal of her as a stalker during the
"At that point, I would not say that was an issue of him wanting to get rid of me and I wouldn't leave him alone. After all, he was the one who had to pick up the phone and call me. I had no way to get in touch with him then," Lewinsky said.
Despite her apologies to the country and the Clinton family, Lewinsky attacked those who transferred her to the Pentagon to keep her away from the president.
"I don't think that my relationship hurt the job he was doing. It didn't hurt the work I was doing. It was between us, and I don't think it was their business, actually." The private look the interview offered of Lowinsky had mixed effects on viewers.

1996 presidential election, during which she had been transferred to the Pentagon.
Christina Lamb, St. George freshman, said she felt more sympathy for Lewinsky and believed her emotions.
"I guess I have a more favorable opinion of her now, and I know she did stuff that was wrong and it was her second affair, but I almost feel sorry for her with the way everything has been brought up," Lamb said.
Moses had a more blunt assessment of Lewinsky.
"When you sleep with dogs you get fleas," she said.

Police stake out intersections to stop drivers from running red lights
By Katie Burford and
Dan Curry
At the major crossroads of the city, Lawrence police will take a stand against drivers making runs on red lights.
Kansan staff writers
kburford@kansan.com,
deurrv@kansan.com
Lawrence Police Chief Ron Olin said that two recent accidents and an increase in sloppy driving were the causes of a police crackdown on red-light violators.
"Drivers are accelerating to get through intersections after the light has turned red," he said.
issued during the tax
Olin said ticketing these violators posed a logistical problem for police. In order the catch the driver, officers either have to run a red light themselves or do U-turn in the intersection.
Although Olin said that issuing a citation does warrant the risk of causing a wreck, he said the department wanted to prevent accidents from occurring.
To confirm the severity of the problem, police performed a two-hour test run Friday at the intersection of 23rd and Iowa streets. Twenty-one tickets were issued during the test.
To reduce the risk of harm but still curb irresponsible driving, the Lawrence Police Department will use multiple officers to stake out intersections, Olin said.
An officer on a motorcycle will observe an intersection and notify other officers placed on each street leading away from the intersection by radio that a violator is heading their way.
"I thought it was really unfair because I had this truck right in front of me," West said.
She said the truck was moving so slowly that the light was green when she entered the intersection and red by the time she exited it.
Jaque west, Lawrence freshman, is considering challenging a $56.50 ticket she received for running a red light Monday night at 23rd and Iowa streets.
Running a Red Light
Line referred to by police as the "plane."
When the light turns red, the car here receives a ticket.
When the light turns red or yellow, the car here does not receive a ticket.
Note: Judge determines fine.
West said that slow turn lanes caused congestion at major Lawrence intersections, especially 23rd and Iowa streets, that made good driving difficult.
West said that police ought to stop red-light runners, but it was short-sighted of them to concentrate on only those violations.
Richard Noggle, Romance,
Ark., graduate student, said that
he frequented the intersection at
23rd and Iowa streets but never
noticed a problem with dangerous
driving there.
"I've never seen anybody run a red light," Noggle said. "But I think it's reasonable to to ticket them."
Olin said that intersection stakeouts would happen as often as the manpower was available to perform them. He said the police department would concentrate its efforts on intersections of streets with high-traffic volumes and speed limits of over 30 mph.
Citations for running a red light do not have a set fine — the amount of the fine is determined by a judge.
Even if citations stop the problem, the cure won't please everyone.
"Getting tickets in general is never any fun," West said.

Honors meeting to show araduate school choices
The University of Kansas honors program will have a meeting at 4 p.m. today at Nunemaker Hall to help students learn about graduate school.
Faculty from a wide range of disciplines will discuss the pros and cons of going to graduate school, what going to graduate school entails, how students can choose a good school in their fields and what to do once a student has a master's degree.
The meeting, which is offered annually, is interactive.
Mary Klayder, associate director of the honors program, said that most of the students who attend usually were juniors who were beginning to think about what they wanted to do after graduation.
"It's tended to be, in the past, a discussion rather than a series of lectures," she said.
Money management, jobs are focus of program
A program about managing wealth and debt and preparing to enter the job market will be presented by the KU Student Alumni Association from 9 a.m. to noon Saturday at the Adams Alumni Center.
Kendall Day, SAA president, said that the program would offer a wide range of help, including networking with others in a career field and finding a mentor. There also will be tips on resume writing, interviewing and securing summer internships or jobs.
"It'll cater to the needs from anywhere from a freshman to a graduate student." Dav said.
He said that he started organizing the event this year.
"I'm a senior and I started to realize that some of the things that will be talked about in this program will be
important to other graduating seniors," Day said. "This is our first year, but we plan on making it an annual event.

Planes narrowly miss collision over Salina
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Two large cargo planes almost collided 33,000 feet over Kansas Tuesday morning. The planes apparently lost radio contact with an air traffic control center, a National Transportation Safety Board investigator said.
The near-collision involved a Federal Express McDonnell Douglas DC-10 traveling from Portland, Ore., to Memphis, Tenn., and an American International Airways Lockheed L-1011 en route from Los Angeles to Indianapolis, NTSB air safety investigator Jill Slimman said yesterday. Both planes apparently lost contact with the Kansas City control center.
The near-collision happened at 10:38 a.m. Tuesday about 30 miles west of Salina, Silliman said from Chicago. There were no injuries.
"We're continuing the investigation, trying to get more details from both cargo holders," Silliman said.
One crew said the planes might have come as close as 100 feet, Silliman said, confirming a published report by The Washington Post.
However, a spokesman for Kitty Hawk Inc., which recently bought American International Airways, disputed that report.
"The closest report I'm getting from the crews, it was a half a mile," spokesman Tom Christopher said from the Grapevine, Texas-based company.
Air traffic controllers said the two planes merged into one target on radar as the controllers attempted to establish contact, The Post reported.

U.S. names Americans murdered in Uganda
WASHINGTON — State Department officials said they believed the Rwandan Hutus who killed two Americans and six other foreign tourists in Uganda were intent on wrecking the country's tourism industry as part of a region-wide ethnic conflict.
The State Department identified the Americans Tuesday night as Robert Haubner, 48, and Susan Miller, 43, both employees of the computer company Intel Corp.
Intel spokesman Bill Calder said they were husband and wife, lived in Hillsboro, Ore., and were on their third trip to Africa with another couple from the company.
The dead also included four Britons and two New Zealanders.
Officials do not believe the slaughter, which took place in the jungles of southwest Uganda, was racially motivated but rather was an outgrowth of the Hutu-Tutsi conflict in Central Africa.
The White House pledged on Tuesday to make every effort to bring to justice those responsible for the murder of the two Americans.
Court says schools must pay for nursing care
WASHINGTON — Public schools must finance one-on-one nursing care for some disabled students throughout the school day, the Supreme Court ruled Tuesday in a decision that may strain educational budgets across the nation.
Voting 7-2 in the case of an Iowa teen-ager, the court said public financing was required under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act because the federal law's exemption for medical services applied only when a doctor's help was needed.
The decision's immediate impact is certain: Iowa's Cedar Rapids Community School District must pay tens of thousands of dollars a year to provide nursing care for Garret Frey, a quadriplegic in a ventilator who is thriving as a high school sophomore.
The ruling's broader impact is cloudier.
The ruling's broader impact is cloudier. The court's two dissenters said the decision blindsided unwary states with fiscal obligations they could not have anticipated. But Justice John Paul Stevens wrote for the court that Congress wanted to help guarantee that students like Garret were integrated into the public schools.
The National School Boards Association was less enthusiastic. "At the current time, the public educational system in this country is not adequately funded to provide full medical services for approximately 17,000 students with severe disabilities," said Anne L. Bryant, the group's executive director.
Mandela calls election will end political career
WORLD
JOHANNESBURG, South Africa — Ending months of speculation, President Nelson Mandela told Parliament yesterday that South Africans will go to the poll June 2 to choose his successor.
Mandela grinned and paused several times to sip water during his address in Cape Town while lawmakers squirred in anticipation.
The announcement comes five years after the euphoric 1994 elections that ended apartheid, and permitted political parties to launch their campaigns.
"OK, I will not keep you guessing," he joked. "It is my intention to proclaim the date of South Africa's second democratic elections as the 2nd of June 1999."

Yoder calls for senators to lobby state for funds

should support the principle as a body."
He said that the University, not students, should pay for educational-fund programs such as New Student Orientation, the department of Religious Studies and the Multicultural Resource Center. Also, Yoder said that increasing the fee would only increase the number of applicants and the amount of money requested.
"We don't need to open up more money for more University jobs that the University should pay for," Yoder said. "We need to make sure that the University holds up its side of the deal. If we do this solely, we're setting ourselves up for all kinds of fee increases in the future."
Krebs said that the Educational Opportunity Fund was the only option for many organizations.
"I don't see how it's improper that we fund student salaries so that they can get the money they would get with a scholarship plus the experience of a job," she said.
Yoder said alternatives to the fee increase were to lobby the Legislature this spring for an increase in comprehensive grants, or to make the requirements for groups to receive funds more strict. He said that if the committee recommended a fee increase in the future, it should request matching funds from the administration.
Many senators volunteered to serve on a committee that would work on expanding or improving the educational opportunity fee and securing administrative or legislative funding.
Senate also debated about providing $2,895 to the elections commission to operate polling sites for Senate elections in April, and about

A resolution recognizing Roy Williams and Marian Washington for their self-sacrifice and dedication to the University of Kansas and its students.
charging Yoder and Student Legislative Awareness Board Legislative Director Korb Maxwell to gain the support of the Student Advisory Committee, Regents and the Legislature in changing the status of the KU Campus Transportation Fee.
Despite some opposition to using student fees to finance KUID readers during the elections, Senate voted to finance the polling sites.
Senate voted against the second piece of legislation that would have showed Senate support for reinterpreting state statutes that prohibit student transportation fees from being used to finance public transportation in Lawrence.
Krebs said that the resolution would have been the first step toward implementing a joint public transportation system between the University and the city. Other senators did not approve of ordering the Yoder to take action and were not sure if they were in favor of the possible disadvantages associated with a city-wide transportation system.

Acting troupe inspires tolerance
By Dan Curry

Kansan staff writer
The kingdom called him The Fool because he ate dirt and sneet his days collecting sticks.
But when the Korean princess kissed him, The Fool rose up, took up arms and defended Korea to his death.
This folk tale, like most tales, has a moral, said John Miyasaki, who is the director of the acting troupe hereandnow that packed the Spencer Auditorium with 100 people last night.
"You should never ever make fun of people who are different from you," Miyasaki said, narrating the folk tale. "Because if you give them a chance, they will succeed."
Miyasaki and six other members of the troupe performed vignettes of Asian-American life, sang do-wop and enacted tales of triumph and defeat.
"A lot of people go to see them because it touches their hearts," said Teh Sun, internal vice president of the Asian-American Student Union said. "It's not just comical. It's very inspirational."
Sponsored by the AASU and Student Senate, this was the third time the troupe has visited the University of Kansas.
"They've shared the same experiences as any Asian-American person would," said Nellie Kim, president of AASU. "It's a way to understand Asian Americans better, like the stereotypes we face being Asian Americans."
Sun said that humor was what hereandnow did best.
"I know one thing they've done in the past is Asian man," Sun said. "Asian man is like a superman figure, and he is trying to convert the overseas Asians into American society."
The audience was also stricken with silence as actors delivered disturbing statistics - 25 percent of crimes committed against Asian Americans are by Asian Americans, said one actor.
Much of hereandnow's drama exploded stereotypes about Asian-American people.
"What's bad about being Asian is that everybody things we're the same," said Miyasaki, whose 17-member troupe includes Laotian, Thai, Filipino, Chinese, Hawaiian, Korean, Indian, Japanese and Vietnamese actors.
Hereandnow's actors volunteer their time and perform for free.
Miyasaki formed the not-for-profit group in 1989 in Los Angeles.
The first Asian-American acting troupe Miyasaki worked for was the Los Angeles-based East West players, the first Asian-American drama company in the country.
Miyasaki formed hereandnow, a successful youthful Asian troupe that has played around the country for nine seasons.
"A lot of it is improv within a structure," said actress Debbie Cheng. "We don't have set lines. About half of what you see is improv."
"We're just a group of people telling our stories and experiences," actress Ronalee Parsaid. "That's something everybody can enjoy."

Speaker raises issues about abortion-related groups

Scott Wallisch, co-chairperson of KU Students for Life, which sponsored the speech, said that the speech had to be pushed back from an earlier date.
"We wanted to do it in honor of Black History Month, but that didn't work out, so we
Mitchell said that minorities had abortions on a level two to three times higher than that of Caucasians, despite the fact that a higher percentage of African Americans were opposed to abortion.
She said the high rate of minority abortions was because of a concentration of abortion clinics in areas where minorities live.
Mitchell said the rate also had risen because the distribution of contraceptives in high schools led to promiscuity.
"A lot of times when we mean well, we're stirring up things that wouldn't normally happen." she said.
Mitchell also said that religious and community leaders weren't helping the situation.
In spite of the current situation, Mitchell saw cause for hope.
"I believe that we are on the verge of change," she said near the end of her speech. "I believe that the new generation is disgusted with the previous generation."
Despite competition from other events and the change of date, Wallisch liked the results of the speech.
Vieyra said that she learned a lot from the speech.
"The crowd wasn't large, but the content was good, and the crowd seemed to get a lot out of it." he said.
"We don't get to hear this side of the issue," she said. "I think that her take was really interesting."

Office hours help improve grades opportunities for future success
There is a simple way for students to make better grades and build future connections. Students should take advantage of instructors' office hours or make appointments to visit with them outside of class.
Instructors' access to students outside of regular classroom teaching also is essential to students' receiving the most out of their education.
Jeannette Johnson, assistant to the provost, said that the Faculty Code of Conduct did not specify requirements for office hours and that she was not aware of students' having problems accessing faculty.
Office hour policies are an academic decision set by the individual departments, and most teachers inform students of office hours at the beginning

Charles Himmelberg, chairman of the mathematics department, said in the mathematics department most instructors set aside three to five hours for students and were available for appointment at other times.
"As a general rule of thumb, faculty are recommended to be available amount of time that equals the number of credit hours that they are teaching." Himmelberg said.
Himmelberg said that complaints he had heard about teachers who were
not available, usually were resolved through scheduling an appointment.
If instructors are not available during their office hours, students should notify the department head.
Instructors enjoy out-of-class contact because it gives them a chance to know students better. Additionally, office hours offer students a chance to get advice in an area that they like or might want to go into.
A student who does not initiate contact with teachers outside of class whether they are in need of assistance

Instructors must continue to be available to students. In doing so, a mutually beneficial relationship is created that enhances the educational experience.

Despite the longevity of the problem, there has been no clear-cut solution to solve drunken driving. New York City believes it has found a possible solution, but possibly at the cost of some civil liberties.
recently, New York City implemented a plan to confiscate the car of anyone who is arrested for drunken driving. Any person found to have a blood alcohol level of more than the legal limit of .10 loses his or her car contingent upon further investigation.
Any strong initiative to combat drunken driving is a positive step. Too many people lose their lives every year because of drunk drivers. But is taking away a suspect's car really the answer?
Confiscating cars of drunken drivers is problematic because of pre-conviction action.
The key word to remember in this is suspect. The person has not been convicted of a crime but would not have a car to drive to work the next day. Regardless of the amount of evidence, a person in this country is innocent until proven guilty. The confiscation of the person's car follows merely an arrest and not a conviction.
There are several issues with this initiative. As stated, there is the problem of punishment prior to conviction. Also, taking a person's car often will hurt more than just the person
who was arrested. If a family is involved, it also will be inconvenienced. Another difficulty could arise when a person is driving a car that is not his own. This occurred the very first night this plan went into action. A man who was driving a relative's car was arrested for drunken driving and had the car confiscated.
This new initiative also does not include a zero-tolerance law. A man who was 18 years old, but whose blood-alcohol was below the legal limit would not have his car confiscated.
New York City should be applauded for taking radical measures to solve a large and dangerous problem. But, simply, a person is innocent until proven guilty and losing a car without conviction is not the act to commend.

Ruling fuels new debate about death penalty law
Perspective
Recently, the white supremacist John William King was found guilty of the brutal killing of an African-American man and was sentenced to death by lethal injection. I think that
everyone would agree that if the death penalty is appropriate, this case is a great candidate.
A. J. M.
However, many people are still skeptical about using the death penalty, and some are outright opposed. This tragic situation gives us a chance to talk about the death penalty, and to try to decide whether it is a good thing for our society.
There are several arguments used to support the death penalty. Many people
Robert K.
Funk

believe that capital punishment will serve as a deterrent to potential criminals. They think that by executing people, we will send a message to potential criminals that if they choose to act so reprehensibly, we will do the worst thing possible to them, we will take their life.
Also remember that our legal system, especially the appeals process, tends to move very slowly. For a punishment to be effective as a deterrent, it has to be perceived as immediate and certain. For all of these reasons, I don't think that the death penalty serves as an effective deterent.
I find this argument very unpersuasive. Many aspiring criminals think that they'll never get caught. They have an air of invincibility about them. In addition, many wouldn't care if they did get caught. When someone is at the point in life that he or she is capable of killing or raping, he or she can't be very happy with your life. It would take a lot of hate in the heart. To these people, taking their life is hardly a threat.
Another popular argument for the death penalty is the idea of justice, that the punishment should fit the crime. "An eye for an eye..." as the Bible says. According to Nietzsche, revenge is perhaps the most powerful motivator known to man. Revenge is a very strong argument indeed, but if you start quoting the Bible in a death penalty debate, you have to expect that someone is going to throw the
death of their misguided There is an argument against the death penalty that isn't necessarily linked to refuting one of the arguments for the death penalty. We are mortals, and sometimes we make mistakes. We can always let someone out of a life sentence, and we can always do other things to try to make things right with that person. We can never give a man's life back once we've taken it.
New Testament back in your face. What about Jesus, and his principle lesson of forgiveness? At this point, the argument turns dangerously religious, so I'll abandon it here.
In addition, many people are offended that our tax dollars should go to supporting these people for the rest of their lives. It is especially appalling that the taxes of a victim's family would theoretically go to support the person that killed their loved one.
Opponents of the death penalty would quickly refute this argument, saying (correctly) that it is much cheaper to put someone in prison for life than to fight through the appeals process and actually execute them.
This refutation isn't exactly on point. Even if it is more expensive, isn't it more appropriate that the tax dollars of the victim's family are spent on pursuing justice? On the flip side, should the killer's family have their money go toward fighting for the death of their misguided loved one?
Obviously this isn't as much of a concern in cases like King's, where the evidence is fairly overwhelming. However, it is a huge consideration in any case where the evidence isn't airtight. I think there is a lot to be said for the argument that we are mere mortals, and unless we are omnipotent, we shouldn't be playing God.
What then is the answer? My gut reaction supports Nietzsche's thinking. I think that lethal injection is too good for King. I think that he should lose his life in the same manner in which he took James Byrd's life. But then I think about King's family. Should we make them suffer more than they already have? What good would it do? Where does it end?
Nietzsche and Jesus are having a Celebrity Death Match in my head, and I'm tired of being the guest referee. I'm going to think about something else for a while.

Caffeine gas, painkillers keys to KU's problems

Clay McCuistion opinion@kansan.com
I've written up a list of these problems, along with my solutions. Though incomplete, I hope they start a dialogue on how to make the University of Kansas a better place for all.
I know this sounds like a little dilemma; it sounds as if I'm being trivial. But looking at my fellow students in my 8:30 a.m. American Literature class convinced me sleer deprivation is a problem.
Tired Students
Do we hear administrators offering solutions to this problem? Are there heated debates about it on the opinion page? Unfortunately, no.
But there should be.
But that's should be done.
If the campus were alert and awake, think of how much more could be accomplished. Imagine the mental activity that could take place.

Credit Card Salesmen
Credit Card Car Insurance
Anyone who has walked through the Kansas Union during winter or down the sidewalks during summer knows about these people. They stand behind their tables, offering colorful T-shirts or tasty candy bars.
All you have to do, they say, is fill out a form. To actually receive a credit card, the company requires seven years of indentured servitude, but no one
reads the fine print that closely. No, people happily sign their freedom away, eager for a filshy shirt
My Solution: The predatory salesman should be outfitted with electric collars that give painful electronic shocks when they move outside a three-foot radius.
titudes.
True, it would be a bad experience for them, but credit card debt is a bad experience for students.
I think it would all balance out nicely.
Halovers Administrators and city officials are all a twitter about alcohol. New restrictions are being formulated, ad campaigns designed and bars closed.
These concerned citizens ignore a very real problem for students who drink. The students attend class, but pounding headaches, dry mouths and body aches diminish their attention spans. Hangovers rob us of valuable time and creativity.
My Solution: Some students will binge no matter what, but writing them off is silly. KU should buy a truckload of industrial-strength painkillers and make them available in restrooms across campus.
Hangovers
No such displays have appeared recently. What's the problem? Even the preacher who stood on the lawn last year of Stauffer-Flint and shouted names at longhaired students is staying away.
True, the billboards were disgusting, morally repugnant and hysterically exaggerated. They were kind of fun, though. Bored students could stand on the lawns and heckle.
My solution: Spread the word among right-wing Christian circles that the University is full of morally degenerate devil-worshipers. Assuming the evangelicals believe that already, tell them the devil-worship is worse than usual.

Regents board may be split apart
Bill could provide better coordination
By Kristi Reimer
By Kristi Reimer
kreimer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
A plan to restructure the Board of Regents and coordinate aspects of higher education in Kansas was introduced in the Senate this week, while a similar bill is under construction in the House.
The plan would change the nine-member Board of Regents to a group of three miniboards. One segment would oversee public universities—such as the University of Kansas one would be responsible for community and vocational colleges, and one would handle coordination issues.
Sen. Christine Downey, D-Inman and sponsor of the bill, said the purpose of the proposal was to make higher-education entities work more closely together
"These groups are like肌 whirlwinds," she said. "Once in a while, they brush by each other and pick up some wind and sediment, but they're not structured."
Downey said that the state of higher education was not in need of a major overhaul, although coordination could be improved.
"We need to ask, if we did things this way, would it allow for improvement?" she said. "It's not that we think things are terribly wrong."
culated among campus offices and that administrators still were processing the information.
Last year, a task force appointed by Gov. Bill Graves proposed a restructuring plan that would have created a board of trustees to govern community colleges and a new higher-education coordinating council.
Provost David Shulenburg said he knew additional plans that existed in "oral tradition," and that the University would need to review all of them.
But, Downey said that creating new boards required a constitutional amendment.
She said the Senate's plan

"Many legislators have attempted to solve the problem; others wonder what the problem is."
kept the essence of the task force plan, but didn't require a change in the constitution.
KU administrators are taking a wait-and-see approach to any restructuring strategy.
Jon Josserand Assistant for Government Relations
"The issue of higher-education governance has been a persistent one in the last 20 years," said Jon Josserand, assistant for government relations. "Many legislators have attempted to solve the problem; others wonder what the problem is."
He said that copies of the Senate bill had cir
The Regents have taken the same position, said Tom Bryant, interim director of the board. But, he said coordination was an important issue.
"The Board of Regents are certainly in favor of anything we can do to help coordination," he said. "We want to do what is best for students."
Bryant said that he knew some students who complained they had problems transferring from community colleges to public universities.
Rep. Ralph Tanner, R-Baldwin and chairman of the House Education Committee, is working on a similar bill. He said it would be ready to introduce early next week.

Claiming Coke prize could be easier
Winners redeem free soda bottles at new location

awarded at the stand.
Students who bought 20 oz. bottles of Coca-Cola at the hot dog stand at Wescoe Terrace may have been disappointed if they won in the Coke sweepstakes.
Warner Ferguson, associate director of the Unions, said that he was unsure why prizes were not
Winners instead had to trek to either the Kansas Union or the Burge Union in order to redeem their winning bottle labels or caps.
"It is our general policy that bottle tops be redeemable at places where they sell 20 oz. bottles of Coke," Ferguson said. "This was probably just a miscommunication."

Coca-Cola
"It's a gigantic hassle because we are such a small operation," Frazier said. "We've had only one irate customer in almost two years."
Adam Mangels, Ulysses junior, said that he had asked workers at the stand for a bottle of Coke he had won, but that they didn't award him his prize.
"It it seemed a little bit stupid since they sell Coke there," he said.
Although Mangels was frustrated that he couldn't redeem his winning cap at the hot dog stand, some students who buy Coke products at the vending machines didn't have a problem walking to the Unions to claim their prizes.
Katie McCloskev. Atchison
McCloskey was aware of the two campus locations and redeemed most of the bottle caps. She said that the locations weren't too irrational.
"It's not really a problem because either Union isn't too far away," she said. "It doesn't seem too ridiculous."
Renee Transue, Lawrence freshman and Hashinger Hall resident, said that at one point, she had four winning bottle caps from last semester in her purse from vending machines in her hall.
Transus won two free Cokes and $40 in KU Bookstore bucks, but never redeemed the caps because she didn't know where to go.
When Transue was told that she could redeem them at the Unions, she said that she wished she would have known earlier.
However, she said that she did not think the redemption locations were that inconvenient or a problem.
"I don't think it's too much to walk there because it's nice to get exercise before you drink another Coke," she said. "They kind of even each other out. Besides the Burge is really close to where I live."

Book party to recognize professor's final novel
Although Harris Stone, professor of architecture, died in June 1995, those close to him are taking time to celebrate both his final book and the man behind it.
The book party also will celebrate the efforts needed to get the book published. Stone was 15 pages short of completing the book when he died — leaving his wife and two of his colleagues to finish it.
a book party from 7:30 to 9 p.m. at The Raven Bookstore, 6 E. Seventh St., will honor Stone's final book, "Dispersed City of the Plains," which was released earlier this year. The School of Architecture and Urban Design will co-sponsor the event.
Stone had a final draft for half the book when his terminal cancer was diagnosed by his doctor in March 1995. He devoted the last three months of his life to completing the book.
Joan Stone, professor of dance, watched her husband's health deteriorate as he worked. He lived page by page, she said, and his continued effort was an accomplishment.
accompany Harris Stone continued writing until two weeks before his death. His wife, who wrote the forward to the book, finished hand-writing the final chapter. Bill Carswell, associate professor of architecture, finished the book's illustrations, but in a different style than the author's.
"I chose not to emulate his style of drawing," Carswell said. "I wanted to do drawings that were less exuberant to recognize the fact that he had passed away. So as you read the text, the drawings become more sedate."
The book is a look at settlement and town-building patterns of the Great Plains. It examines how building patterns differed from those predominant on the East Coast and in Europe.
"This new book is all about the history and potential of a new model of town building," said Joan Stone.
Barry Newton, professor of architecture, wrote the introduction to the book. He said Harris Stone wanted to examine not only the differences in settlement patterns, but also why those differences existed and their implications on work, community and architecture.
ine inspiration for writing about the Great Plains came from Harris Stone's involvement with the restoration project of the Barber Schoolhouse, a one-room structure built in 1871 near Clinton Lake.

he taught with Newton said the book was written in an essay style and had a novelistic feel.
Lending to that personal feel are the book's illustrations, which were sketched by the author, and its hand-written text. Harris Stone originally typed and edited the text, then rewrote the final draft by hand.
"He was always interested in craft," Newton said. "So, there's a certain craft-based sense to the handwriting. And it gives the book flavor."
"Dispersed City of the Plains" is Harris Stone's fourth book. Joan Stone described the books as a continuous, evolving workbook.

Jayhawks score first tournament win
Free-throw shooting proves key to victory
Tournament games are about survival and that's

about all the 25th-ranked Jayhawks were able to accomplish in their first game of the Big 12 Conference Tournament.
Kansas fell behind in the first half and used a late second-half rally to defeat the 11th-seeded Oklahoma State Cowgirls 59-53 last night in Kansas City, Mo.
P. C. LOVE
Washington: Says this was a tough game
we found a way to win.
The two teams met just one week ago in Stillwater, Okla., where the Jayhawks overtired to beat the hustling Cowgirls. After that game, Oklahoma Sate coach Dan Halterman said that the Jayhawks' excellent free-throw shooting was the difference in the close contest.
"it's always a disadvantage to have a game like this," said coach Marian Washington. "The first round everybody's so tight, and this was our first round, so it wasn't a very pretty ballgame. The important thing was we found a way to win."
The Cowgirls' game plan last night was to deny the ball to Kansas 'inside players and keep the taller, more athletic opponents off of the free-throw line as much as possible. In the first half, the plan worked to perfection as the Jayhawks forced up tough outside shots and didn't attempt a single free throw.
"We did a good job of keeping the ball out of the paint in the first half without putting them on the free-throw line," Haierman said. "The second half we just couldn't guard them on the block. All of the
sudden it looked like it was going there all night long. They're big, strong and physical and we just couldn't get it done."
Down 24-20 at the break, the Jayhawks pounded the ball inside repeatedly and were rewarded with 18 attempts at the free-throw line. Sophomore forward Jaclyn Johnson benefited the most from the inside focus as she scored a team-high 15 points and grabbed seven rebounds.

The offense wasn't the only part of Kansas' game which improved in the second half. The Jayhawks held Oklahoma State without a field goal for the last nine minutes of the game.

"We've had a lot of games like this," said Oklahoma State guard Jennifer Crow, who scored a game-high 18 points for the Cowgirls. "We'll have a lead and then just give it away."

'Hawks split two with Baker 'Cats

Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas baseball team opened play at Hoglund Ballpark with a two-game split against NAIA opponent Baker University last night.
The Jayhawks dropped the first game 10-9, which pushed their losing streak to eight games, but bounced back in the second game, winning 6-2.
In the opener, the Wildcats jumped out to a three-run lead, as Kansas starting pitcher Chad Schuster got off to a wild start. But after that start, Schuster settled down, and Kansas scored five runs in the second inning to take the lead.
Kansas answered Baker's run the next iming when sophomore Doug Dreher delivered a two-BRI single that gave the 'Hawks the lead back.
Schuster pitched four innings, struck out six, gave up four runs and left the game at the start of the fifth with a 7-4 lead.
of the fifth. Baker scored four runs in the fifth, thanks in part to Kansas' three errors, and regained the lead 8-7.
Dreher was 3 for 7 in the doubleheader and provided three RB, as he pushed his bitton.

Unfortunately for Kansas, Baker tied the game at 9-9 in the top of the seventh on a two-out. RBI single.
In the bottom of the seventh the Jayhawks pushed runners to second and third, but failed to drive them in when Dreher was called out on a close play at first, stranding the base runners. Coach Bobby Randall argued the call, but to no avail. That was the last time Kansas threatened in the game.
Baker first baseman Justin Miller launched a solo home run in the eighth that proved to be the difference as Baker held on to win 10.9.
"It was a real boost for us," Baker coach Darin Loee said. "We were 0-4 and didn't play well last weekend, and came out here and scored ten runs off good pitching."
included among those players playing well are freshmen Matt Van Alsburg and Jason Appuhn. Along with Dreher, they provided most of the offense in the first game.
Kansas coach Bobby Randall was disappointed with his team's execution in the first game, but said he did see some good things.
The doubleheader split brings Baker's record to 1:5 and Kansas' to 3-9.
Van Alsburg went 4 for a four with RBI, and Appuhn was 2 for 5, including a two-run home
run in the third inning. He also had three RBI. The blast was Appuhn's first of the year.
The bats was Appalled. "Those guys had some really good at bats, and some bad ones, as well," Randall said. "Early in the first game they were phenomenal, but lost their swing and had a hard time maintaining their focus."
the entire team had a tough time maintaining its focus, as the Jayhawks committed three errors and continually left runners on.
"We're still not executing," Randall said. "We had so many opportunities to blow that game open and we didn't, but give Baker credit."
In the nightcap, which was shortened by the coaches, the Jayhawks used a four-run sixth inning and pulled away from the Wildcats and won 6-2 in seven innings.
"I was glad we bounced back, and Ryan Schmidt after the first inning, really pitched well," Bandall said.

'Hawks need Robertson in Big 12 tournament
Robertson: Will treat the tournament as a war
By Kevin C. Wilson Kansan sportswriter
If the Kansas men's basketball team hopes to claim its third straight Big 12 Conference tournament title this weekend, the Jayhawks will need a boost from their struggling senior, Ryan Robertson.
Ryan Kobrisky wrote, "I really believe I'm going to have a big tournament," said Robertson, who was a member of the Big Eight All-Tournament team as a freshman in 1996. "With it being my last time and being a little upset by the
way we've played, I'm just going to treat it like a war and go out and battle."
battle.
When Robertson travels to Kemper Arena Friday night, he will be looking to eradicate his recent shooting woes. In the last two games, the 6-5 guard has connected on just 4-of-15 field goals, including 0-of-5 from three point range, and scored a total of nine points. Before his slump, Robertson had scored in double figures in fivestraight games.
Kansas coach Roy Williams agreed.
"I've just decided that I'm going to go out swinging," Robertson said.
"If we lose, I'm going to go 0-for-15 rather than just shooting five times. I'm going to play like it's one of my last opportunities because it is."
Kansas coach Roy Williams agreed. "I've wanted him to be a little more offensive minded all year. He knows that, I know that." Williams said. "I don't want him to take five shots. If he says he's going down swinging in terms of trying to be more aggressive and still being fundamentally sound then that's good."
If Robertson's recent slump does
n't get him motivated for this week end, then maybe his failure to make any of the coaches' All-Big 12 teams will.
"I was a little bit surprised," Williams said of Robertson being selected only as honorable mention. "Ryan Robertson's had a heckuva year for us and I'm glad he's been on my basketball team. As coaches and for his teammates, I think he's been greatly appreciated by us."

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday:
Learn to budget this year and grow rich. Another's loss is your gain in May. Stash away your treasure in October, instead of spending it. Pay dues by November so you can get the benefits. Accept an unexpected windfall gracefully in December. Confusion, yours or somebody else's, could cost you next February. Guard against it by being well prepared
Aries: Today is a 7
A compromise is possible, but you may not want to give up anything. Think again — you have more than enough Besides, if you make a generous contribution, you retain more authority. You and your adversary may never agree. A mutual friend brings the perfect new concept.
Taurus: Today is a 5
You work hard for the money, but today it might feel like you're working for free. Actually, you're making points, and that could be even more important. Someone who is in a position to help your fortune considerably is watching, and taking notes.
Gemini: Today is a 7
You are looking very good today, and most likely making a great impression. But again, that could lead to trouble. Looks like everybody wants your time and attention. Instead of picking A or B, a third option that shows up today could be your best choice.
Cancer: Today is a 5
Your intuition should still be good, so use it. A roommate or close family member is in a canteranker mood. You'll never win by arguing. Instead, take the subtle, roundabout route. Prepare the special meal this person loves tonight, and you may get what you want without saying another word about it.
Leo: Today is a 7
Virao: Today is a 5
There'll be lots of surprises today. Don't take anything for granted. Just because it worked once doesn't mean it'll work again. Just the opposite is more likely. Don't worry, though. Another unexpected development puts everything right again. Be patient, and wear your suitability.
Scorpio: Today is a 5
Back and forth, up and down, in and out. Which way should you turn next? Knowing you, it'll probably be all of the above. You're usually willing to try just about anything to see what will happen. Today, that could be very interesting.
Libra; Today is a 7
Sagittarius: Today is a 7
Capricorn: Today is a 5
You could get tangled in red tape today. The machinery's working line; it's the people who are the problem. Somebody else's inability to make a decision could throw you off your schedule. You hate to just step in and take charge, but you may have to do just that.
Aquarius: Today is a 7
An excellent career opportunity could open today, almost by accident. If you've been about the job you'll like to have, you'll know it when you see it. You should be doing work you love, and getting paid what you're worth. If you're not, check out the want ads
2
You ought to be one place, and you want to be another. A new technology could help you be both places almost simultaneously. You may already know what it is, but not know how to use it. If there's something that fits that description, put in a little extra study time.
Pisces: Today is a 5
You've been learning all week, and now you could get a chance to teach. The flow of ideas is stimulating, and also creative. One idea leads to another, almost more quickly than you can keep up. Don't be doing all this studying just for the fun of it. Make it pay.
Money is an issue again today. Looks like it's coming into your account, which is wonderful. Of course, you'd like to spend it on gifts, but hold back a little. The best gift of all is the one you'll give to yourself when you're old and gay: a big, fat retirement account.

Big 12 championship to return to Texas
DALLAS — The Big 12 football championship is returning to San Antonio's Alamodome on Dec. 4.
Note: Horoscopes have no basis in scientific fact and should be read for entertainment purposes only.
"San Antonio is a great destination for fans with great atmosphere and many local attractions," said Kevin L. Weiberg, Big I.2 commissioner.
The site of the title game has shifted between North and South cities each year. St. Louis was the host in 1996 and 1998; the game was played in the Alamodome in 1997.

"The football championship game in 1997 was a tremendous success," Big 12 senior associate commissioner Donnie Duncan said. "We look forward to another one in 1999."
Nebraska beat Texas A&M in the 1997 game, which was attended by an Alamodome-record crowd of 64,824.
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Rene Hanebault scored 26 points, including seven 3-pointers, and lead No. 9 Texas Tech against Kansas State 74-55 yesterday in the quarterfinals of the Big 12 tournament.

Hanehutt's outside shooting forced the Wildcats to abandon their zone defense, allowing Tech post players Angie Brazel and Keith Dickerson to get loose underneath. Dickerson finished with 13 points and Braziel had 11.
Texas Tech led by as many as 26 points in the second half as the Wildcats struggled to find rhythm on offense.
Angie Finkles scored 17 points and Ola Firsova had 10 scores and 11 rebounds for Kansas (15-13, 7, 9), which made only three 3-pointers.
Syracuse blows away competition in Big East
NEW YORK — Syracuse scored the first 12 points of the game, and things only got worse after that for Boston College yesterday as the Orangemen routed the Eagles 96-55 in the opening round of the Big East tournament.
It was the biggest blowout in tournament history, topping the 33-point margin Seton Hall had in the 1993 championship game, 103-70 against Syracuse.

Pitcher's back spasms keep him off the field
DUNEDIN, Fla. — For David Wells, his trade to Toronto is proving to be a pain in the back.
The left-hander was in the treatment room instead of on the field Tuesday, bothered by back spasms
"Wells has some lower right back inflammation," Toronto trainer Tommy Craig said. "We're treating him now and he seems to be responding to the treatment and exercises. We don't anticipate it being a long and drawn-out thing. We're just going to take it day to day right now, then ease him back up to the on-the-field stuff."
Wells felt discomfort for the his first time Saturday but finished his 11-minute pitching stint.
"I don't know if there is anyone who can put an exact cause," Craig said. "It might be that his pelvis twisted too far."
Wells, who pitched a perfect game for the New York Yankees against Minnesota last May, was acquired last month along with reliever Graeme Lloyd and second baseman Homer Bush for five-time Cy Young Award winner Roger Clemens.
"He knows what he has to do to get ready," Blue Jays manager Tim Johnson said. "He's just stiff, I think he be fine."

Swim team desires upset in men's Big 12 championship
By Emily Hughey
ehughey@kansan.com
Kansas sportswriter
The Kansas men's swimming and diving team is out for blood.
Going into the Big 12 Conference Championship in Austin, Texas, as the fifth-ranked underdogs, the men's team is focused on an upset.
Senior sprinter Brant Peoples said he was as excited about the meet as teammate Hartl. He said Tuesday that he was feeling so energetic he wanted to scream.
Trent Hartl, senior freestyler, said he thought the team had a chance for second or third.
"We've been cutting back on yards in work-out so we'll be ready to explode once we get there," Peoples said. "But you've got to wait, keep it inside and wait for the right."
the right moment."
KU SWIMMING
For the Kansas men, the moment to untie will be at
moon today when preliminaries begin and in the finals at 7.0 m.
At this point, Texas, Texas A&M, Nebraska and Iowa State are favored before Kansas. Missouri is ranked sixth. Nevertheless, the men are focused on swimming fast.
"It's going to take good swimming and guys stepping up who aren't usually expected to step up," junior Tyler Painter said. "To break through, we're going to have to have a really well-rounded meet, and I think we can do it."
Painter, who has been serving a suspension from the team since early February, is back to competition after sitting out two meets. Coach Gary Kempf suspended him for breaking an undefined team policy about which he refused to comment.
Although Painter has been away from competition, he has maintained his training regimen with the team. Kempf said he decided to let Painter swim at the conference meet a couple of days ago.
Painter said that he thought his suspension would have no affect on his performance at the conference championships.
"I'm just ready to go," Painter said. "I don't think it's affected me at all."
Kempf said that the men's team had not yet come together and competed as a total team. He also said that he hoped conference was the meet that all the men would perform to their peak potential.
"We just want to try to eliminate the little mistakes," Kempf said. "We want to all come together at the same time and take big chances."
Hartl, Painter and Peoples each said the relays were their main opportunity to break free of their fifth-place rank.
"Our relays are really key." Peoples said. "They're double the points of individual events. Everybody's got to come together and feed off of each other."
For most of the men's team, the conference meet will be the last meet of the season, but those who qualify for the NCAA Championships will travel to Indianapolis March 25-27. So far, Painter is the only swimmer qualified. He will be swimming the 500-yard and 1,000-yard freestyles and the 400-yard individual medley.

Parity among Big 12 teams leaves tournament wide open
The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — If momentum counts for much, Colorado and Oklahoma State could be the teams to beat in the Big 12 tournament.
Oklahoma State (19-9, 10-6), which meets 12th-seeded Baylor (6-23, 0-16) at 2:30 this afternoon, may be playing better than it has all year. And eighth-seeded Colorado (16-13, 7-9) will take a four-game winning streak into its first-round match at noon today against ninth-seeded Iowa State (15-14, 6-10).
"We're playing real well right now," said Oklahoma State coach Eddie Sutton, whose Cowboys have won three of their last four. "Overall, I think we're playing our best ball of the season."
In tonight's matches, No. 7 seed Kansas State (18-11, 7-9) plays No. 10 Texas A&M (12-14, 5-11) and No. 11 Texas Tech (13-16, 5-11), goes against Nebraska (18-11, 10-6), and Big 12 player-of-the-year Venson Hamilton.
BIG 12 CONFERENCE
Baylor is the only Big 12 team ever to go winless through the conference season.
Colorado and Iowa State split their two-game series, with each winning at
"Our mood is very good, upbeat," said Baylor coach Barry Miller. "We look at this as a fresh start. I do think our team can be competitive, and I do think we have a chance to win."
home. But as for momentum, it might be hard to beat the come-from-behind 52-50 victory the Cyclones notched against Kansas in the regular season finale on Sunday.
in the second round on Friday, the winner of game No. 1 will meet regular-season champion Texas (18-11, 13-3) at noon, followed by the winner of game No. 2 against fourth-seeded Oklahoma (20-9, 11-5). At 6 p.m., the game No. 3 winner goes against second-seeded Missouri (20-7, 11-5), which at No. 22 is the Big 12's only ranked team. In the final game Friday, it will be third-seeded Kansas (19-8, 11-5) against the winner of game No. 4.
The past two years in this tournament, everyone was fighting for the right to fall victim to Kansas in the championship game. But there's no way to predict a winner now.
"In basketball today there are fewer and fewer actual upsets," said Missouri coach Norm Stewart, whose team has won two in a row, including a 54-47 victory against Texas in the regular-season finale. "Parity makes things possible. That's why there's such interest."
Rick Barnes recognized as Big 12 coach of the year in Associated Press selection
The Associated Press
AUSTIN, Texas — Rick Barnes — who took a Texas team in disarray and shaped it into the conference champion is the Associated Press Big 12 Conference coach of the year.
A panel of media observers named Barnes as the overwhelming choice, giving him 23 votes to one for Nebraska's Danny Nee.
YOUNG MOHAMED ALMAZAN
"Obviously,
whatever award
has come my
way has been
because of the players," said Barnes, who came to Texas from Clemson.
Barnes: Came into tough situation at Texas
The task this season never was considered easy for Barnes. A player revolt had prompted the resignation of his predecessor, Tom Penders, who was the winningest coach in Texas history.
Two of Barnes' players transferred.
leaving him only 10 scholarship players and no point guard when practice began.
But Barnes, whose more deliberate style contrasted sharply with the sometimes helter-skeler atmosphere of Penders' teams, preached patience and asked his players to believe in him and themselves.
A 2-7 start with losses to Houston, South Florida and San Diego gave Texas fans little confidence. But the conference schedule hadn't started yet, and the Longhorns said they knew they were getting better.
"When I started this job, I knew we had to take care of the team first." Barnes said. "The players had really been caught in some crossfire. I told them there's nothing I can do about what happened a year ago and just asked them to be patient."
Texas (18-11, 13-3) started 5-0 in the conference. The loss at Kansas preceded another five-game winning streak that put the Longhorns in control of the league race.
Texas clinched the regular-season title and the No.1 seed in the conference tournament with a 62-52 win at Baylor Feb.24.

Miami Heat center has more focus, calm attitude
The Associated Press
MIAMI — The only person Miami Heat center Alonzo Mourning blames these days is himself.
Last year, he would blame the refs and cheap shots from opponents. Now he's a smarter, calmer and improved version of himself.
On Tuesday night, Mourning missed three shots in the final seconds of the fourth quarter against the New York Knicks. That sent the
game into overtime and nearly cost Miami the victory. The Heat went on to win the game 85-84.
"I know this is a game of mistakes," he said.
"I'm in my biggest critic."
Houston
"I rushed a lot of things," Mourning said, sounding almost apologetic. "I've got to make better decisions."
Last year, Mourning would grow so frustrated, he forgot basketball and took to his fists.
MIAMI HEAT
Case in point: Game 4 of last year's playoff against the Knicks. Mourning was in a fight with Larry Johnson and was suspended. The Heat lost Game 5 and Miami coach Pat Riley said Mourning's short fuse cost the Heat the season.
Many also remember Mourning coming unravele as Dennis Rodman taunted and hounded the 6-foot-10 center when Miami lost two playoff series to the Chicago Bulls.
Despite still being pushed around by opponents, Mourning stands his ground and keeps his cool.
On Tuesday night, Mourning finished with 28 points. 11 rebounds and seven blocks.
"I'm working on trying to be a mistake-free player," Mourning said. "There are a lot of things I have to work on as a player if I'm going to help contribute to this ball club."
His mentor, Ewing, said Mourning's approach to the game really hasn't changed, just people's impression of him.
NEW YORK — The New York Rangers have suddenly found themselves after losing Wavne Gretzky.
The Associated Press
Since the top scorer was sidelined with a neck injury Friday, the Rangers have put together a three-game winning streak to keep their playoff dreams alive.
"I don't think anyone would have thought we'd have the success that we've had over the last three games — five points out of six against the quality of teams we've played," said Rangers coach John Muckler.
First, the Rangers beat the Phoenix Coyotes 3-0. Then, they beat the Philadelphia Flyers 6-5. And Tuesday night, the Rangers tied the league-leading Dallas Stars 2-2.
It has been an impressive stretch for the Rangers, not only because of the
teams they have played, but also because of their injury situation.
Gretzky hasn't been the only one on. Todd Harvey, Jeff Buekeboom and Peter Popovic also have been sidelined.
"Everyone realizes that collectively, we have to fill the void," said Adam Graves, who has played on the top line with Chelsea for most of
SAM HILFIGER
Gretzky: Sidelined with neck injury for at least two weeks
The injury to Gretzky couldn't have come at a worse time for the Rangers.
They're in a five-team struggle for a playoff berth. Even with Tuesday night's tie, they dropped four points out of the final spot, which is now held by the Boston Bruins.
The Rangers have fought hard for each win—that's been their game plan since Gretzky went down and the team learned he would be missing for a minimum of two weeks.
"We're playing better defensively," Muckler said. "We're doing more forechecking. A lot of people have stepped up. We talked about this when Wayne went down. The guys in the dressing room weren't afraid of that challenge."
Petr Nedved has been among the most prominent of the Rangers to step forward. Since taking Gretzky's center spot on the Rangers' top line, Nedved
has produced three goals and three assists in the three games so far.
Another key player in the streak has been Graves, who scored his 30th goal Tuesday night.
New York's special teams also have rated a star in the past three games, as the Rangers evened their home record at 14-14-3. Against Dallas, the Rangers killed all seven of the Stars' power plays.
"He does so many things for us," said goaltender Mike Richter. "He's a great penalty killer. Once he gets the puck, he's a very difficult player to get it away from. He battles in front. He gets hard goals."
"Our play has improved, and that has given us the confidence and the ability to win games," Richter said. "We finally started making Madison Square Garden a tough place to play."
Tar Heels not playing up to previous standards
The Associated Press
CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Ed Cota looks around and this is what he sees: mistakes and more mistakes.
"We go over the same stuff (in practice), but some of the guys still ain't getting it," the North Carolina point guard said. "I don't know if it's boring to them or what."

This is no time to be bored. The Atlantic Coast Conference tourns
N
After starting
8-0 and winning 12 of their first 13 games, the Tar Heels have taken several steps back.
"I can see if we were out there running the plays correct and not playing well, but we're out there looking like chickens with our heads cut off." Cota said. "It's like somebody is always forgetting the play."
Now, North Carolina's scoring average of 70.6 points a game is the lowest in 17 seasons. The team's 47
percent shooting is the worst since 1968. And to top it off, the Tar Heels have been last in the ACC in turnover margin most of the season.
"I am frustrated with the way we're playing. I can't believe we're playing at this level right now," said Cota, who has watched the Tar Heels close the regular season with an 8-5 mark.
North Carolina has played in 10 of the last 12 ACC title games, winning four titles in the '90s. In addition, Duke and Maryland each scored 81 and 89 points, respectively, in a pair of wins against North Carolina. They are the two teams the Tar Heels will probably have to beat to become the first team since North Carolina (1967-69) to win three straight ACC crowns.
Coach Bill Guthridge said he's pleased with the team's efforts, suggesting fans may have gotten hopes too high when the team won the Preseason National Invitation Tournament back in November with wins against Purdue and Stanford.
"I told our team before the season started they shouldn't feel any pressure to keep any of our streaks going," Guthridge said. "For the most part, they've worked hard and gone about their business hard."
Diamondback's pitcher returns to mound, strikes out players on former college-team rival
The Associated Press
TUCSON, Ariz. — Revenge is sweet,
Randy Johnson joked, even after 14 years.
The last time Johnson faced the University
zona, he walked six players and was
The last time Johnson faced the University of Arizona, he walked six players and was shelled for six runs on 13 hits in a 7-3 loss.
That was 1985. He was no Big Unit then, just an extremely tall, extremely wild junior at the University of Southern California.
Johnson took the mound against the Wildcats again yesterday, making his Arizona Diamondback debut by methodically striking out four of the six batters he faced in two perfect innings.
"I'm getting back at U of A after all those beatings I used to take at USC," Johnson said.
Two of the college players, 19-year-old Keoni DeRenne and 21-year-old Dennis Anderson, managed to bounce out to shortstop, the biggest groundouts of their lives.
because I'd like to show it to my kids someday."
Johnson, who signed a four-year, $52.4 million contract with the Diamondbacks, strolled to the mound at Tucson Electric Park under bright sunshine in 80-degree weather.
The Diamondback purple is the third major-league uniform Johnson has worn. For nine seasons, he was a Seattle Mariner. For a half-season last year, he was a Houston Astro. Now he's the marquee addition to a high-priced rotation that could vault Arizona into National League contention.
The Diamondbacks eventually won the game 10-2, an outcome that will be quickly lost to the big-leaguers in the 162-game season to come.
But the six college players who went to the plate against Johnson will never forget it.
"Just to have the opportunity to face Randy Johnson, it's like a dream come true, it's like a childhood dream," said Erik Torres, who struck out on three pitches. "Yeah, three pitches, but those three pitches meant a lot to me."

Passmore, making his third NHL start, made 29 saves in a 5-
3 win against the Buffalo Sabres last night. It was his first NHL victory after a loss and a tie last week.
Michael Peca scored twice for Buffalo and Jason Woolley had a goal and an assist for the Sabres.
Boris Mironov and Bill Guerin each scored twice for Edmonton, and Buffalo native Todd Marchant also scored for the Oilers. Guerin's empty-netter capped the scoring.
"It was my fault that we lost," said Roloson, who started in the Sabres' 6-3 loss to the Oilers on Friday. "To get run out by the same team twice, that's pretty bad."
The Sabres coughed up the puck for a pair of goals as the Oilers took a 2-1 lead in the first period. Guerin's slap shot from the top of the faceoff circle to the left of goaltender Dwayne Roloson caught the net just inside the far post at 7:12.
"It's nice to get that first
"We can't put up five or six goals," Woolley said. "Obviously we're not doing a good job in our own end, and that's killing us."
He ranked third in the AHL in goals-against average, save percentage, wins and shutouts and had logged more games and minutes than any other goaltender in the league.
one," said the 26-year-old Passmore.
The Sabres have gone 2-2-2 since Roloson replaced injured Dominik Hasek, who has been nursing a strained groin.
"He made some great saves late in the game," Ollers coach Ron Low said. "Good for him. It couldn't happen to a nice guy."
"I don't know if you can fault
Dwayne when someone's teeing
Marchant, who scored two goals including the game winner in Edmonton's win against Buffalo last week, scored the game's second goal at 9:35 when Buffalo left the puck sitting in the slot and left Marchant uncovered.
Woolley scored first for the Sabres when he took a pass from Michal Grosek and skated behind the net for a wraparound goal at 14:50. Woolley fed Peca in front for the tying goal at 16:37.
Mironov's two goals restored Edmonton's two-goal lead in the second period. He scored off a faceoff at 9:20 with a shot through a screen, assisted by Josef Beranek with the teams skating four-on-four.
it up from the hash marks," Sabres coach Lindy Ruff said.
Buffalo missed chances to tie the game. Midway through the third period Brian Holzinger flipped the puck over an open net. Curtis Brown hit the side of an open net during a Sabres power play with five minutes to play.
Mironov added his 11th goal on the power play with a rising wrist shot from the point at 11:34. It was the fourth career multi-goal game for Mironov, who extended his goal-scoring streak to four games.
The Sabres replaced Rosolon with 21-year-old Martin Biron after Mironov's second goal, which made it 4-2. Rosolon faced 13 shots and made nine saves in place of Hasek, who has been day-to-day with the Sabres but could play as soon as Friday.
Biron made 12 saves. Playing for Rochester this season, Biron faced Passmore eight times.
The Sabres are 2-8-1 in their last 11 games with Edmonton.
"Steve played really well." Biron said. "He deserved his first NHL win. He got a little lucky, but you make your own luck."
Peca popped in a pass for his 24th goal at 6:25. It was Peca's eighth career multi-goal game and his fourth of the season.
"Penalties, giving up early goals," Peca said. "Those are the things that get you out of a rhythm. We just have to emphasize the first goal and staying out of the penalty box."

Senioritis strikes May graduates
By Ezra Sykes

Kansas staff writer
A group of diseased students gathered in the depths of the Kansas Union yesterday to try on black robes, knowing their college life would soon be finished.
As the students passed booths advertising class rings, class coffee mugs and graduation caps and gowns, some explained their illness
I love being a rock star. I am always up for the challenge. I enjoy playing music and dancing. I also like to travel. I am excited to see new places and explore different cultures. I am very happy to be part of this amazing community. I am confident in my skills and feel proud of my accomplishments. I am sure that I will continue to make an impact on the world.

at the graduation fair in the bookstore.
Ryan French, Kansas City, Kan., senior, said that symptoms included apathy in class participation and spending more time at the bars.
Celebrity spending more time at Kelli Carney, St. Louis senior, said she recently had acquired a great desire to sleep at all times.
These students, along with many more KU seniors, are dealing with a strange disease that has never been recorded in any medical journal or proven fatal. They are dealing with a plague that strikes campuses every semester.
"This semester, I'm skipping even more classes, and it's not working out," David said. "It was the same thing with high school. All I can think about is looking ahead."
They are dealing with senioritis.
After four years at the University of Kansas, James David, Stilwell senior, is ready to leave. Last semester, he had a hard time doing homework and reading texts for his classes, and this semester is even more rough, he said.
Study habits have dwindled for David.
"I don't read anymore until the day before the tests," he said, explaining how he had learned to manipulate the system during his college career. "There's always a way to do good without studying."
Being a senior had also been hazardous to his health, said David, preparing to fill out forms for graduation announcements.
After finding the right size graduation cap.
"I never thought I be the one to sit down and drink a couple buses every night, but for some reason I do," he said. "I just can't take it anymore. I've got to get away from campus."
“This stuff is scary,” he said, nodding toward the graduation caps and gowns. “I don’t feel that old, but I’ve got to realize that I’m old now and that college is over.”
French said she planned to escape to Europe longer vacation

YOU coalition opens campaign at student bar

n kansan staff writer
Amidst rally cries about student input and representation from atop a bar counter and cheers from about 200 supporters, YOU coalition kicked off its campaign last night at The Hawk, 1340 Ohio St.
YOU, which represents a refocus on issues that affect students, is a new Student Senate coalition established in October by Korb Maxwell, Student Legislative Awareness Board legislative director, and Dede Selnuemaker Senator.
Maxwell, who is for student body president, ran as a Delta Force senatorial candidate last spring.

YOU FOR SENATE
Maxwell, who left Delta Force because he was concerned the coalition wasn't moving ahead, said that YOU was not a new Campus Cause coalition and that he wanted to bridge both coalitions to create something different and cohesive. He said that YOU was not a greek or non-greek coalition.
There are about 100 members in YOU, 55 of whom are running for senatorial positions. A coalition must consist of at least 65 candidates.
body vice president, was a candidate for Campus Cause last spring, which is no longer a coalition.
Maxwell said the coalition would work to gain more student representation in University decisions, such as corporate contracts.
Maxwell said that YOU had not yet decided on specific campaign issues because coalition members were still surveying student groups. Surveys have been conducted at various greek houses and will be conducted at the residence and scholarship halls throughout the next two weeks.
"I'm not concerned if there is a smart card or Coke contract, I'm only concerned about the way those decisions are made," he said. "They can't be made in a back room of Strong Hall."
The coalition's survey includes issues such as citywide transportation, campus safety, online enrollment, bus routes on weekends, fast food in the Kansas Union and recreational facilities.

Man exposes himself to woman at Laundromat
A 29-year-old Lawrence woman was doing her laundry Tuesday night at a Ninth Street Laundromat when she noticed a middle-aged man mastubulating nearby.
The woman told police that she had been at the business, just doing her laundry, when she saw the man.
"The suspect exposed himself and masturbated in front of the woman," said Lawrence Police Sgt. Rich Nickell. Police said they were looking for a 120-pound Caucasian man in his 50s or, with gowns and blue eyes.
He was last seen wearing gray sweat pants, a blue sweatshirt and a pair of sports goggles.
Housing department files damage report
Police have no suspects and are investigating the incident as lewd and lascivious behavior.
A criminal damage report was filed at the KU Public Safety Office yesterday against the KU student who was hospitalized Tuesday after police found her unconscious in her Hashinger Hall room
She was found unconscious with a bloody nose about 6 p.m.
The report, which was filed by the Department of Student Housing, was in regard to a broken window found by police in the woman's room.
POLice said they entered the student's room with a key after being called by someone who had heard things being broken in the room. Police received no answer after knocking on the student's door.
Following treatment by medical personnel on the scene, the student told police that she had received the bloody nose and lost consciousness because she had been upset.
She would not tell police why.
The Department of Student Housing officials estimated the window to have been worth $100.
The student was taken to Lawrence Memorial Hospital but returned to her room by 7 p.m. she was not found to have any injuries, except for the bloody nose.

boeing Co. president downplays sale rumors
WICHita — Boeing Co. president Harry Stone碑ie reassured workers Thursday that the company's facility here would "continue to build what Wichita
builds into the future," downplaying rumors that the company plans to sell all or part of its Wichita operations.
Company representative Dick Ziegler said Stonecipher made the comment in response to a published report about those rumors while touring the facility. Stonecipher, who was unavailable to speak to the media during his daylong visits with workers, is expected to make a similar statement to reporters today.
"There is absolutely nothing of special merit that needs to be talked about, rumors notwithstanding," Zieher said.
Ziegler declined to comment on any rumors about acquisitions, divestitures or business transfers as a matter of company policy, citing federal regulations.
He visited with employees and senior management and has seen some of our processes at work, and seems very favorably impressed," Ziegler said.
Stonecipher did not show any unusual interest in any particular aspect of the Wichita operations, Ziegler said.

Noriega's sentence reduced by 10 years
MIAMI — A federal judge reduced Manuel Noriega's prison sentence from 40 years to 30 yesterday, meaning the former Panamanian dictator could be eligible for release by 2007.
Noriga, 62, won the reduction from U.S. District Judge William M. Hoeveler after arguing that he deserved credit for helping the United States pursue its interests in Latin America while he was in power.
Noriegas was captured after the United States invaded Panama in 1989 and was sent to prison for money laundering and drug trafficking. He has spent nearly nine years by himself in a two-cell suite at a federal prison near Miami since Hoeveler granted him special status as a prisoner of war.
"Basically, we are talking about getting out of jail at a time where he can still enjoy life," said Frank Rubino, Noriega's defense attorney. "He then can enjoy his wife, his family, his grandchildren. It's a significant reduction."
Hoeveler said he shortened Noriega's sentence after considering the nature of his confinement and the "disparity between the defendant's sentence and the sentences served by his co-constirators" — some of whom are out of prison.
of decaying Victorian mansions and brick storefronts.
But tensions have been running especially high since last week, when Trenton's Caucasian mayor of 16 years told a reporter that African Americans were unfit to serve in town government.
North Carolina mayor makes racist remarks
TRENTON, N.C. — For years, racial tensions were expressed in glares and overheard whispers in this small town
The remark came after a few African Americans sued officials of the all-Caucasian town government in January for not annexing some mostly African-American outlying areas.
"They are not leaders; A black man would rather work for a white person," Mayor Joffree Leggett told the Kinston Free Press. He went on to say that if three African Americans were working together in a store, "within a few years, they'd be stealing from each other and they'd be out of business."
The 81-year-old mayor — at the urging of the three-member town board — resigned this week. But his words have inflamed the community and sparked a month long boycott of the Caucasian-owned businesses that line Jones Street, the main drag in this farming center of 200 people on North Carolina's coastal plain.
Jordan's government reappointed by King
WORLD
AMMAN, Jordan — King Abdullah shuffled the Jordaniian government yesterday, purging many ministers loyal to his uncle, who had long been expected to ascend to the throne.
The king swore in Prime Minister Abdul-Raouf Rawabdeh and 22 other Cabinet members, urging them to consolidate ties with Israel and to work for a more open government and a freer press.
Abdullah's words and his appointment of mostly liberal politicians and technocrats as ministers reaffirmed his commitment to the policies of his father, King Hussein, who died Feb. 7.
"Jordan is in the throes of a new and promising era," Abdullah said in a letter to Rawabdah, outlining his policies.
While the prime minister and the Cabinet handle the daily work of the government, the final word rests with the monarch.
Rawabdhé, 60, replaced Prime Minister Fayez Taranneh, 51. Rawabdhé's Cabinet has 15 new ministers, including one woman. Eight ministers were retained.
Taranweh's Cabinet worked most of its six-month tenure under Abdullah's uncle, Prince Hassan, who was in charge while King Hussein received cancer treatment in the United States.

primarily for the weekends.
Now she hits the bars three or four times a week. "My effort is a little bit lower in school," French said. "I've been going out a lot this semester because it's my last chance to be with my friends so often."
Lisa Wolf-Wendel, assistant professor of teaching and leadership, who teaches a class entitled The College Student, said that senioritis was an interesting phenomenon because it went against how higher education should work.
"As you go further into your studies, things should become more important to you because classes are focused on things you want to learn and you have chosen as your interest," she said. Regardless, Wolf-Wendel said she thought senioritis could be harmful.
"Students are doing a disservice to them selves by blowing off their classes," she said.
But some students don't see Karen Jackey. Brian Karpen, Milwaukee senior, is a fifth-year senior in architectural engineering and is looking for a job.
"I're pretty much sick of classes, and it's hard to get my homework done," he said. "Hopefully, I'll have a job by the end of April, and if that happens, my goal is to just get out of here. If I get all D's, it doesn't matter."
Karpen said he was happy to be graduating, but one problem remained for him.
"I don't know where I'm going to come up with the money for this yet," he said, looking at a price list for graduation announcements.
Extra financial aid must be returned

Kansan staff writer
Amanda Tyson, Melvern sophomore, was shocked to receive a bill from the General Accounting Office for $650 this semester instead of a $550 credit. Because of a mix-up, she had been given grant money which exceeded her limit for need-based aid, requiring her to pay back the difference.
Tyson had not been aware of regulations regarding the amount and distribution of financial aid that students could receive when she applied at the Office of Student Financial Aid.
She said she was upset about the situation.
"I feel like they messed up, and now I have to pay or they will hold my enrollment." Tyson said.
Brenda Maigaard, associate director of the OSFA, said that situations like this could occur if students did not notify the OSFA of all scholarships and aid they were receiving, or if additional aid was awarded to the student after they had received need-based aid.
"If a student is awarded aid that we are not aware of, like outside scholarships or university scholarships
that come in after we have awarded federal or state aid and those scholarships create what we call an overaid situation, that would mean that they were no longer eligible for that full amount of need-based aid for that semester. "Maigard said."
She said students were only eligible to receive need-based aid up to a certain point. Additional aid can make them ineligible for a part of their need-based aid.
"Regulations mandate us on some aid programs that if the student exceeds their need they are required to repay a certain part of that," Maigaard said.
She said that a financial aid award letter was not a contract or guarantee and that changes in students' enrollment, residency, tuition, academic performance or additional aid could change their award amount.
Maigaard said students who found themselves in this situation had no real way to avoid paying part of their aid back.
"There is not an appeal process for that — it is the law," she said. "We understand that students may have difficulty repaying it. However, those charges go back on their account and that would then hold up any enrollment activity, refunds or requests for transcripts."

Seibel said that she wanted YOU to be a diverse and representative coalition. She said she wanted to incorporate the opinions of University housing residents and members of campus groups.
Maxwell said that if elected he would take a more aggressive lobbying agenda to the
state legislature.
Seibel said she would conduct more Senate meetings outside of the Union and try to improve Senate committee orientation so that it would become a more unified body.
Erin Day, St. Francis freshman, said that she decided to be a YOU candidate for Nunemaker senator because she appreciated the coalition's
"Dede and Korb's reputations precede them," Day said. "Because I'm a freshman, I haven't had enough time to really get to know the people who are running, but I liked the way they approached me."
Seth Hoffman, Nunemaker senator, said he and Mary Liu, College of Liberal Arts
and Sciences senator, would run as Delta Force candidates for student body president and vice president, respectively. But he said that the decision was not yet official.
Delta Force's kick-off party is at 9 p.m. Wednesday at the Granada, 1020 Massachusetts St., where the official announcement is expected.

KU Women in Law readies for mentoring
Local junior high girls to learn, stage mock trial
By Corie Waters Special to the Kansan
KU Women in Law are hoping to make an impact on the lives of Lawrence junior high school girls.
Today 30 girls from Central Junior High will take part in a mentoring program sponsored by Women in Law. The 25 law school mentors will show the girls Green Hall, take them to a class of their choice and stage a mock trial.
"We want to show girls that women can go to law school," said Katie Wall, coordinator of the mentoring program and Plymouth, Minn., third year law student.
Wall said that the junior high students would spend the whole day at Green Hall. The students can choose to sit in either Criminal Law, Family Law, Local Government or Business Associations II classes, she said.
After sitting in a class, the girls will hear from five local attorneys before participating in a mock trial.
“It’s amazing the girls really get into it; they think of stuff we don’t.” Wall said.
When the program started in the mid-1980s, it targeted at risk and minority female junior high students in Lawrence. It tried to show them that hard work and perseverance was needed to become lawyers.
"I think the program is a great idea," said Jackie Stickle, Leawood first year law student. "Kids at that age base a lot of their behavior on role models. This is a chance for law students to provide a good influence."
Although Wall, who has participated in the program for three years, didn't know of an instance where a participant went on to enroll in law school, she did recall a story about a girl who changed her attitude after a day in the mentoring program.
"Before the program, the girl never thought she'd go to college," Wall said. "But when she left she had decided she wanted to go."
Ted Juneau, Central Junior High School principal, said he thought the program was a good opportunity for girls to explore possible law careers.
The program is sponsored by Central's gifted program, but is open to all female students who are interested.
"It is important that all kids get a chance to get motivated in spite of their situations," he said.

A KU student filed a lawsuit last week against the parties he holds accountable for a hazing incident that put him in a coma in 1997.
Matthew Prime, St. Louis junior and former Pi Kappa Alpha fraternity pledge, is asking for $75,000 for expenses and further relief incurred from a Feb.
26, 1997 hazing incident.
Prime fell into a 12-hour unconscious state caused by alcohol poisoning.
Prime named the KU chapter of the Pi Kappa Alpha fraternity, the national Pi Kappa Alpha Fraternity, the University of Kansas, the Kansas Board of Regents and the Mount Oread House Corporation — which maintains the fraternity house at 2000 Stewart Ave. — as defendants in the lawsuit filed in Douglas County District Court.
Also named in the lawsuit were six individuals, including the chapter's president, vice-president and pledge trainers at the time of the incident.
Although the suit was filed by Prime's attorney, Theodore Lickteig, on Feb. 25, defendants have not yet been served with the suit as per Lickteig's request.
Brian Harper, defendant in the suit and Lake Forest, Ill., senior, said that he was surprised that Prime waited so long to file a suit.
"I can't understand why he would do this and a half years later," he said. Prime and Lickie could not be reached for comment about the lawsuit.
Also named as defendants in the suit were Todd Guerrieri, former president; Jeff Fay, former vice-president and treasurer; Cory Aubuchon and Aaron Harper, fraternity members who were in charge of sending the pledges through the series of bedrooms; and John Kosciulek, a former pledge trainer.
The lawsuit states that on Pledge Dad Night, an annual ritual in the fraternity's membership process, activities at the house included excessive consumption of alcohol, wrestling matches and rampaging on a public street.
Although Prime stated to members that he did not want to drink very much, other fraternity members encouraged
"As far as I'm concerned, I saved his life. I can't understand why he would be suing me."
Brian Harper
Pi Kappa Alpha fraternity member
ind coerced him to consume alcohol
The lawsuit states that members told Prime that "this would be the time of his life' and that he would, 'always remember this night.' Excessive consumption of beer and hard liquor was a de facto requirement of membership."
According to the lawsuit, pledges were taken through a series of six to eight bedrooms, where they consumed three to four shots of beer or hard liquor in each.
After the room-to-room shot drinking, pledges engaged in wrestling, rampaging and the serenading of a neighboring sorority house, the lawsuit stated.
According to the lawsuit, "Mr. Prime eventually fell down on Stewart Avenue and passed out in the living room of the fraternity house."
Harper, who was Prime's pledge dad, said that he was the one who took Prime to the emergency room of Lawrence Memorial Hospital.
"As far as I'm concerned, I saved his life," Harper said. "I can't understand why he would be suing me."
The suit stated that Prime had a blood alcohol level of .375 when he arrived at the hospital. For people over 21 the legal blood alcohol limit is .08, while under 21 it is .02.
Jim Yolch, Pi Kappa Alpha national fraternity director of services, said that after the Feb. 26 incident the KU chapter had its international charter suspended, but that since it had been regaining university privileges.
"Upon membership reviews, the fraternity went from about 108 members to 22 to 25 individuals committed to the fraternity's ideals." Yolch said.
He also said that none of the current members were involved in the Prime incident and that they were immune to the situation.

Millennium bug advice creates undue impression of catastrophe
When some people already are digging trenches in hillsides to escape the destruction they believe will be caused by the year 2000 computer bug, the last thing we need is alarming statements by government officials.
That's why recent statements by governmental bodies — ranging from the U.S. Senate to the City of Lawrence — advising people to prepare for the year 2000 as they would for a severe storm could end up doing more harm than good.
True, the statements were well-intentioned. And true, a certain level of public preparedness is definitely a good thing.
But when the public hears the millennium bug compared to natural disasters without knowing the details of the situation, the potential for further hysteria is quite clear.
Constant government warnings exaggerate preparation needs for year 2000.
Take, for example, a recent statement from assistant city manager Rod Bremby. He advised Lawrence residents to prepare for 2000 as they would for a seven- to 10-day snowstorm.
While the statement was motivated by good intentions, a long blizzard conjures up frightening images in many peoples' minds. Fright without facts is a dangerous combination that can lead to further hysteria.
Governments need to temper their warnings with less harsh images and instead work to spread facts about the issue that will keep people calm.
For example, repeated tests have shown that planes will not drop from the sky. Power will not go out in most areas, and where it does, it should be restored quickly.
There are plenty of soothing facts out there.
All banks insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation were required to be Y2K-compliant by March 1. The FDIC also requires round after round of equipment testing to double-check compliance.
Secretary of Agriculture Dan Glickman has told Congress that no food shortages large enough to affect the basic comfort or well-being of Americans are anticipated.
In short, the Y2K problem is likely to be a hiccup, not a heart attack. While most government leaders realize this, they need to do a better job of conveying the message.

Alumni offer mentoring to students
Another mentoring opportunity is available at the University through the Student Alumni Association.
Hawk Talk mentoring, a program that matches up KU alumni with students, is one of several opportunities offered to student alumni. Students only need to express interest in a certain field, and they will be paired up with one of about 400 alumni registered to mentor.
The participating alumni extend beyond the Lawrence area. Only about 95 are from the Kansas City-Lawrence-Topeka area, said Jennifer Mueller of the Alumni Center. The rest are from areas as far away as Greece and Japan.
Career advising, internship assistance can be found through University groups.
globe.
Mueller said students could receive career advising and internship assistance via letters and e-mail with the distant mentors. While the distance could have downsides, the positive aspects would be that students can find information about their careers in different parts of the country and
To be a part of the Hawk Talk program, students must pay a $15 fee to join the Student Alumni Association.
Students seeking only mentoring opportunities have other resources to which they may look. Women can be paired with a mentor for no charge through the Emily Taylor Women's Resource Center. The University also offers mentoring services for freshmen and transfer students.
Joining the organization has other benefits aside from the mentoring opportunities.

individuality. Since the Enlightenment — and in some instances, before — it has been viewed as one of the most natural rights that we humans have. A representative government
can't function without individuals to be represented, and individuality can't be nurtured and protected without free choice.

United States citizens have rights and freedoms that most others on this planet do not. We are free to develop our individuality by making our own choices and by learning from the mistakes we make.
The problem is that some in our generation have begun to lose sight of what exactly
Keith Burner
opinion @ kansan.com
individuality is. It's something many struggle to define when they get to college and cast off the remaining shackles of childhood.
When we get here, most of us feel driven to shed our precollege skin and be unique. Someone different than the insecure adolescent we all once were.
But because of our age and temperament,we often jump head first into something we don't fully understand.
Usually, the first solution that comes to mind is to physically change something in such an extreme way that you either hide it from your parents, or they flip when they see you.
"I want to pierce my head," we might say.
My friend Albert had piercings all over his body. He was a prince of a guy to hang out with, and his body art made him seem unique. We had many intelligent conversations. He was smart.
But when he was around his pierced friends, he didn't seem to have anything to say that was different from that of the collective. For some reason, Al had given up his true individuality to conform to the beliefs of the group.
When birds of a feather flock together, they become it for their silly endeavor.
I'm not disrespecting people with piercings. It really doesn't matter. Individuality is more than making slight changes to our appearances. As one of the cornerstones of our society, it falls in the realm of things that most would fight for, and some would kill to protect.
Not killing is the best ideal that humans can aspire to, but ideals are only good in ideal situations in an ideal world. Unfortunately, we do not live in one.
But someday, you may be forced to.
Here in the real world, we recognize ideals for what they are, and try not to set them aside unless forced to.
It may be against your religion. Not killing is a big rule in most of them, but if you think about it, the other nine Commandments haven't been that hard to justify breaking.
I'm not saying that you should skewer anyone
who interferes with your business, just that the price we pay for our individuality is the same. price we pay for owning property; its defense.
But killing should be saved to combat Hitler'scale intrusions into civil liberties, not minor inconveniences caused by the naysayers or petty thieves of the world.
We can all clearly understand the necessity of protecting our property. After all, we're a bunch capitalist pigs.
while our government protects our property we're mostly on our own to protect our individuality. Governments deal better with groups.
When you allow humans their natural right to make choices that help to form truly individual individuals, some will become bad.
And other individuals are who we need to protect against.
The government — chosen by informed and clear-thinking individuals — should protect us from these bad seeds, but really does not.
Many wrong turns are possible on the road of life, and sometimes this world creates people who are individualistic in a bad way.
These people lack something, some truth about the beauty of existence. They try to make up for it by infringing upon the rights of others.
Instead, it fines, imprisons or executes the bad individuals after the fact. Don't get me wrong, that's about all it could do. It's every human's duty to be prepared to defend their own rights, because the government is incapable of it.
The importance of the individual cannot be measured. Individuals make this country — and the whole species, for that matter — better.
Life would be pretty boring if we all looked and acted the same. How could debate of any kind exist if there weren't individual viewpoints, morals and virtues?
And through these debates, humans come closer to the perfection they know is unreachable, but which their individual ethics demand they never stop fighting for.
Here in college, many of our peers still believe the path to individuality is a path paved with tongue rings, hair dye and tattoo needles.
It's time we stop saying we like Miles Davis music, record players and fraternity parties if we don't. We need to stop confusing popularity with individuality.
Not that any of this stuff is bad, but if it's all the individuality we have to offer, we will never get any respect from the community. To the rest of the educated society members, we'll always be a bunch of Generation-X kids who didn't make half the changes to society that they did when they were in college
Anyone who thinks that individuality, at any level, can be achieved by physical change is just one of thousands conforming to the notion of nonconformity.
Don't get me wrong. There's nothing wrong with body art, Miles Davis or record players. We just need to remember that we can't all be different in the same way, or we would all still be the same.

Memory may influence perception of self, others
Iran into an old friend at a party a few weeks ago. I've known this girl nearly all of my life. She was the first girl I had a crush on.
We were chatting about old times when she told
We were chatting about our me about an article she wrote in her high school newspaper.
POLICE
She was writing about childhood stuff, and she mentioned how one of her memories was of my sending a postcard to her from Disneyland while my family was on vacation. Unfortunately, my ability with the ladies is still that lame.
Nick Bartkoski opinion @ kansan.com
I don't remember the postcard incident at all, but as we continued chatting, I learned that gaps in her memory were also present.
We were explaining to someone else how we had gone to elementary school together until she had left at the fourth grade.
The one truth upon which my entire life has been based — that I was the fat kid that no one liked — had never even registered within my friend's memory. But some insignificantly lame gesture — my sending a postcard — was a cherished childhood memory for my friend, although inconsequential to me.
"Gee, my fourth grade year really did suck," I said. My childhood friend looked at me quizzically, and I explained, "Fourth Grade: you know, you left, I became the fat kid that everyone hated." This statement prompted her to respond, "You were never that fat, Nick."
What this discrepancy in our memories proved to me was that each of our lives' stories, our lives' biographies, was cobbled together with a different basic premise in mind and with different facts upon which they're based.
I've had this theory for a while. We each have a life biography that governs the way we process our daily lives. We've crafted this biography from hundreds of different things that have happened to us. This biography explains the way we interact with other people and how our belief system
The memories on which we base our biographies can vary greatly. A lot of my biography is based on be teased in grade school.
came to be.
Although I think biographies are shaped by fact, or at least someone's perception of fact, they also are crafted by omission of fact.
The real world is often messy, and one fact is often contradicted by other facts. In our biographies, we have to be decisive.
I can only assume that my friend's biography was shaped by the postcard incident as a self-improvement motivator. The postcard incident probably drove her to ensure that never again would she be the object of a total loser's affection.
To show only one view, we omit the facts that support another view. I've omitted the thousands of compliments that I've received since high school to protect my paranoid belief that everyone hates me.
A lot of the description is based on things that happened when I was ten. Enough has changed that I could provide facts disproving every part of it — except for the rotting fish thing. My picture on the biography's cover could use some serious airbrushing, if you get my drift.
But my point is that enough of the negativity has penetrated and affecting the way I think. I could write the story about how I'm a generally well-received human being who prompts people to ask, "Oh, Nick, why are you so funny?"
Unfortunately, it would seem more like fiction than a biography to me. I'm a prisoner in a cell that I constructed myself. Those are usually the most secure prisons.
So try to think about the things that you remember, about what they say about you as a person or about the people you know. You'll be surprised by what you remember. Your eyes can be opened by learning what others remember.

Fire ordinance incompliances could affect 4 greek houses
By Jamie Knodel
jknode1@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
If four University greek houses don't comply with a City of Lawrence ordinance by April 2000, the Lawrence fire marshal will attempt to remove residents from the houses.
The city ordinance requires all Lawrence congregate residences, which includes Greek housing and house cooperatives, to be equipped with a sprinkler system.
"Congregate residences are different from other living arrangements. Things that occur in one part of the house can easily affect what happens in another part of the house, because it is wide open," said RICH Barr, Lawrence fire marshal.
The Lawrence City Commission adopted the policy in 1993 and allowed the houses seven years to comply.
Barr said that most of the greek houses were already in compliance with the ordinance more than a year before the deadline.
He said 24 of the houses were totally compliant, six houses had put in sprinklers everywhere in the house except the main living floors and two had installed sprinklers in the basement and put in a fire line.
Barr said that the Sigma Delta Tau sorority house, 1625 Edgehill Road; Tau Kappa Epsilon fraternity house, 1911 Stewart Ave.; PI Kappa Alpha fraternity house, 2000 Stewart Ave.; and the house at 1003 Emery Road which is where members of the Zeta Beta Tau fraternity are living; were the only houses to not be in partial compliance with
These organizations are taking action before the deadline to avoid violating city code.
Andrea Golden, Sigma Delta Tau sorority house manager and Plymouth, Minn., sophomore, said a sprinkler system would be put into the house before school resumed in the fall.
"We weren't aware that we needed them." Golden said. "As soon as were were told that we needed them, we took action to get them in."
John Nelson, Tau Kappa Epsilon fraternity house manager and Salina sophomore, said that construction on the house's sprinkler system would start this summer.
He estimated costs to be roughly $20,000. He said financing the project would not be a problem.
Spencer Staudenmyer, Pi Kappa Alpha fraternity president and Kansas City, Kan., junior, said that the chapter's fraternity alumni housing corporation was in the beginning stages of planning to get a sprinkler system in place and that he fully expected to comply with the ordinance by 2000.
Jordan Strauss, Zeta Beta Tau fraternity president and Riverwoods, Ill., junior, said that he did not know where the fraternity members would live next year.
The Alpha Xi Delta sorority owns the house where Zeta Beta Tau members are living at this year.
Strauss said that the fraternity was not responsible for installing a sprinkler system and that the fraternity would make its home in a place that complied with city codes.
Barr said that if houses failed to meet codes by the deadline, action would be taken to protect the people who lived there.
"We will attempt to allow them not to live there until they are compliant," he said.

Campus opinions vary about Lewinsky interview
By Dan Curry
dcurry@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
While Monica Lewinsky kept the country's eyes glued to the tube Wednesday night, opinions about her interview filled the air around campus, yesterday.
"I watched it from start to finish," said Erik McCarthy, Kansas City, Mo., graduate student. "All they did was try to make it more melodramatic."
He said that he had been following the Clinton-Lewinsky scandal development from the
start and finish anything new in the 20/20 interview.
"It was all media spectacle and no news," he said.
Paivi Hongisto, Turku, Finland, graduate student said that the Lewinsky scandal wasn't worth watching at all, though he admitted to watching a little
"All I can remember is that her makeup was perfect," Hongisto said. "It caught my attention. She looked nice."
Lewinsky. Told her story yesterday on television's 20/20
William Dickinson, resident professional at the William Allen White School of Journalism and Mass Communications, said he had mixed reactions about the interview.
"I was surprised that Barbara Walters did such a good job of interviewing Monica," said Dickinson, who worked as a journalist in Washington D.C. for more than 20 years.
"Still, as a program, it's what I'd call info-
entertainment because it was taped in
advance and filmed with commercials." Dickinson said.
The program's commercial veneer somewhat compromised its journalistic integrity, Dickinson said.
He said that it was clear Lewinsky was trying to portrait herself in the best possible light.
Lewinsky refused to completely condemn Clinton, she dodged questions regarding Kenneth Starr and she said that now she wouldn't give anything to Linda Tripp.
Roscoe Howard, associate professor of law, said that Lewinsky most likely avoided talking about Starr because she would not want to give Starr any motivation to investigate her further.
"Let sleeping dogs lie," Howard said. In the interview, Lewinsky also gave insights into the emotions she felt as the trial proceeded.
"I felt like the whole world looked at me like a whore." I waved, Evansky said in the interview.
I fell like the whole world looked at the K. a whore," Lewinsky said in the interview. Kathy Rose-Mocky, director of the Emily Taylor Women's Resource Center, said she was concerned about the drawn-out focus on Lewinsky's character with less attention being paid to character of Clinton.
Leann Graham, Lawrence senior, said she felt physically ill as she watched Lewinsky on the television.
"I can't imagine walking up to anyone and going, 'Look, here's my thong underwear,'" Graham said.
Lewinsky's new book, "Monica's Story," which was cited in the interview for extra insight, was released yesterday around the United States.
As of 5 p.m. yesterday, Hastings and Borders Books and Music in Lawrence only had sold nine copies each, employees said.

Ex-presidential intern for hire
The Associated Press
NEW YORK After the mess she helped make at the White House, who would hire Monica Lewinsky now?
Actually, she might find more success than you'd think. Employment experts say that with a little image polishing, she could have a future in fashion, media, public relations, women's issues, even the law.
"She'd be great in public relations," adds Nick Corcodilos, who runs the Ask the Headhunter job-search Web site, citing her ability to stick to her message through fierce interrogation.
The scandal aside, Lewinsky has exhibited some pretty poor work habits. Her emails and letters were riddled with spelling errors. She was not always truthful and showed signs of petulance and laziness.
Yet she has also offered glimpses of the ambitious young woman who used a family connection to secure a White House internship in 1995. By the time President Clinton's impeachment trial wound to a close, U.S. senators were fairly gushing about her noise and intelligence.
Her best bet might be in a very public sort of job.
“In the entertainment industry, for example, it really doesn't matter if you're good famous or bad famous,” says Laura Berman Fortgang, author of the career advice book “Take Yourself to the Top.”
Marv Albert, the sports announcer who lost his job with NBC in 1997 after he admitted biting a woman during a sexual encounter, is back in broadcasting. Donna Rice, whose romance with Gary Hart helped end his presidential campaign in 1987, modeled blue jeans for a while and now crusades against Internet pornography.
Similarly, Lewinsky could hit the lecture circuit, offering lessons to young women about how to avoid her mistakes.
She might even find a job asking questions instead of answering them. Barbara Walters, during her daytime talk show, The View, invited Lewinsky on Wednesday to audition for a slot as a host on the program.
One thing is sure: She's highly unlikely to slip into a low-profile position befitting a former intern with a bachelor's degree from an undistinguished liberal arts college.
"Iimagine if you came to work one morning and found her in the next cubicle," said Cathleen Faerber, president of the Wellesley Group, a headhunting firm in Lake Zurich, Ill. "Her presence would be so disruptive."
For a while anyway, Lewinsky's main job will be promoting her book, "Monica's Story," written by Andrew Morton with her cooperation.
"I don't think she's going to walk right into a $90,000 job somewhere," Faerber says. "But there is light at the end of the tunnel for Monica."

Preservation office finds inconsistencies in plans for project
Arts center expansion still not finalized
By Heather Woodward
hwoodward@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Later this month the Lawrence City Commission will hear public comment about expanding the Lawrence Arts Center, a project that has been debated by residents for more than 10 years.
The State Historic Preservation Office recommended Tuesday that plans to expand the Lawrence Arts Center, 200 W. Ninth St., were not consistent with some guidelines.
The public hearing tentatively is set for March 30.
Cathy Ambler, Kansas assistant divisions director for cultural resources, said the State Historic Preservation Office made recommendations based on guidelines set by the secretary of interior.
"We provide advice," Ambler said. "We have 30 days to review
every project, and we treat each project fairly and consistently."
The Lawrence Arts Center occupies the Carnegie Library building, which is owner by the city. Karmen Huyser, president of the arts center's board of directors, said in the 20 years the arts center has occupied the building, that its programming needs have grown considerably.
"We need more space," Huyser said. "We want to remain downtown because it is in a centrally located space in the city. That's why we've resisted the idea of relocating to somewhere in West Lawrence."
Huyser said that the project plans calls for expanding west, as opposed to north. The result will be the demolition of six homes that sit west of the arts center.
"Moving west versus moving north gives us more of a square-configured building that makes for a more usable space." Huyser said. "Moving north is less desirable because it creates a long tunnel-shaped building."
Ramon Powers, state historic

Dunn said his properties, which were built in the late 19th and
James Dunn, who owns the six rental homes that would be removed for the expansion, said he was pleased with Powers' recommendations.
"I thought he was very astute at looking at the longer range effect of the project more than we have in Lawrence," Dunn said. "With the expansion, I would be gone. All of my holdings would be gone."
early 20th centuries, had acted as of only a few remaining residential structures downtown.
"This type of housing is more moderately-priced housing," Dunn said. "My buildings have been able to withstand intrusion into the neighborhood after corner after corner was bulldozed to become commercial."
Dennis Enslinger, Lawrence historic resources administrator, said the state recommendations were what he had expected.
"We're concerned about the project's size and scale." Enslinger said. "Now it will go before the city commission to see if there is a feasible alternative."

Classic English play receives new features for modern audience
By Ezra Sykes

esykes@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
In 1700, William Congreve is said to have run on the stage and berated the audience for not appreciating the premiere of his play "The Way of the World" after it was finished.
Three hundred years later, the University Theatre is staging the "The Way of the World" with hopes that it will receive a better reception.
The play opens at 8 tonight at Crafton-Preyer Theatre in Murphy Hall. "The Way of the World" also will be performed at 8 tomorrow night, 2:30 p.m. Sunday and at 8 p.m. March 11-13.
The play, which contains an underlying theme of male and female relationships, is one of the more wittier and difficult satires to stage, director Ron Willis said.
"Much of the satire is based around how men and women treat, exploit and tease each other and shows a couple that can put aside these things to have their own unique relationship," he said.
Although the theme remains the same, many aspects have been changed to make the play more accessible to modern-day audiences.
Willis spent last summer going through the two-and-a-half hour play line by line, making changes and moving from 17th-Century London to 1930s New York.
The opening scene in the original play was set in a chocolate house, a popular place for social gatherings in England during the 1600s. Now, the opening scene takes place in a gentlemen's club, a place where
socialites congregated in the '30s.
Willis said.
"I didn't really try to improve the play," he said. "I just tried to make it accessible."
Although the play has been altered to make it easier for the audience to understand, cast and crew members still had their work cut out for them.
The cast and crew have been meeting for about six weeks, spending three to 1/2, five nights a week, practicing. They began dress rehearsals Sunday.
Andrew Stowers, Lawrence senior, who has a lead role in the play, said that balancing the play with six credit hours of school and with the 35 hours per week that he works at the Java Break could be difficult at times.
Kate Haugan, Overland Park freshman, who has been participating in plays since third grade, said although rehearsals were time consuming, she didn't mind the stress.
"It's such a natural thing for me to do theater and be in rehearsal that if I'm not going through the stress of production, I don't feel good," she said.
Though the show is classified as a comedy, Haugan said that it took some brainpower to catch some of the messages.
"Ilike this play because it's intelligent and a lot of comedies don't have as much plot behind them," she said. "This one is witty and intelligent. As long as the audience is willing to sit down and think, they will be entertained."
Tickets can be purchased at the Murphy Hall, Student Union Activities and Lied Center box offices and are $12 for the public, $6 for students and $11 for senior citizens.

Marine acquitted of 20 deaths in Italy
Italians decry verdict, seek proper justice
The Associated Press
ROME — Italians were outraged and bitter yesterday at the acquittal of a Marine pilot who killed 20 people when his jet ripped through a gondola cable in the Italian Alps. One official called the verdict "a punch in the stomach."
"It's a shameful verdict," said Klaus Stampfli, the son of one of the victims, Maria Steiner, a 60-year-old retired shopkeeper from northern Italy.
stampf1 attended part of the courtmortial of Capt. Richard Ashby, 31, at
the Marine base at Camp Lejeune, N.C.
the Marine base at Camp Jeune, N.C. Ashby was acquitted of all charges Thursday, including 20 counts of involuntary manslaughter in the Feb. 3, 1998, tragedy.
"It was certainly not a serious trial, not as serious as it would have been in Italy," said Stampfl.
Steiner was one of three Italians who died, along with two Poles, seven Germans, five Belgians, two Austrians and one Dutch person.
"The verdict is disturbing — we expected that justice would be done." Italian Premier Massimo D'Alema told RAI state television in an interview from the United States, where he was to meet today with President Clinton.
"We are asking for justice, and we shall explore all the legal ways to ensure that those who are responsible are held liable," D'Alema told reporters.
The accident caused an uproar in
Europe and strained relations between Italy and the United States.
Italy is a NATO ally and hosts a number of military bases important to the United States and to the alliance. The accident prompted calls in some quarters to close down the bases.
The mayor of Cavalese, Mauro Gilmozzi, called the verdict "the defense of a war machine."
It took place during a training mission in the Italian Alps out of the Aviano base. Ashby's EA-6B Prowler, a fourman radar-jamming jet, severed the cables in a valley near Cavalese, Italy.
Lorenzo Dellai, the president of Trento province where Cavaleese is located, said the acquittal was "a punch in the stomach."
Fausto Bertinotti, the head of the Communist Refoundation party, renewed his demand that NATO bases in Italy be closed and called the verdict a violation
of Italy's national sovereignty.
"The victims didn't get the justice they deserved," he said. "This is not only the acquittal of a pilot, this is the acquittal of an entire system."
Attorneys for the victims are seeking damages from the U.S. government.
"We had said before that U.S. justice couldn't handle the case, and we were right," said lawyer Giuseppe Pontrelli, head of a citizens' group formed after the tragedy.
The reaction in parliament was equally bitter.
Achille Occhetto, president of the lower house's foreign affairs committee, said, "In the face of many dead, and such clear responsibility, this verdict is an act of arrogance and prevarication."
acute allegiance and pressure
The leader of the Greens, Mauro País,
san, called the verdict outrageous and
an offense to the 20 dead.
"I injustice has been done," he said
Two men admit to killing gay man, charged in death
The Associated Press
SYLACAUGA, Ala. — Two men who claimed to be angry about a sexual advance by a gay acquaintance plotted his murder for two weeks, then beat him to death with an ax handle and burned the body on a pyre of old tires, police said yesterday.
Steven Eric Mullins, 25, and Charles Monroe Butler Jr., 21, were charged with murder in the slaying of Billy Jack Gather, 39. They were lailed on $600,000 each.
The charges brought by police carry a maximum of life in prison. But a grand jury could indict the men on charges punishable by death.
The Feb. 19 slaying outraged Gaither's friends in this central Alabama town, along with civic leaders and gay rights organizations that kept the motive for the slaying quiet for days to help police catch the killers.
Butler confessed Monday after saying he couldn't sleep, and Mullins admitted his involvement two days later while in jail on an unrelated charge, sheriff's Deputy Al Bradley said.
Mullins and Butler, who apparently knew
Gaither from going to the same bars around town, claimed that Gaither made a pass at them, Bradley said. The two then decided on a murder plan, the deputy said.
Mullins and Gaither went to pick up Butler at a nightclub, where he was playing in a pool tournament, Bradley said. The three men went to a secluded boat ramp, where Gaither was beaten and thrown in the trunk of his own car, then was taken to the trash-strewn banks of Peckerwood Creek, the deputy said.
Badley said two tires were set on fire with kerosene.
"They took him out of the trunk, took an ax handle and beat him to death," he said. "Then they put the body on the fire."
Friends, most of whom knew Gaither was gay, said they did not believe he would make a sexual advance on the men.
The Gay and Lesbian Alliance of Alabama learned of the killing through a contact in the area and notified authorities.
Tracey Conaty of the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force in Washington, said Alabama was one of 19 states with hatecrime laws that don't cover offenses related to sexual orientation.
The Associated Press
TOPEKA — Shawnee County commissioners want the sheriff to resign amid questions about how much he knew of a former deputy's cocaine addiction and the disappearance of drugs from an evidence locker.
Meanwhile, Sheriff Dave Meneley is digging in, alleging that a local newspaper and the mayor of Topeka are involved in a conspiracy to discredit him. He said he had no intention of resigning.
The three county commissioners called for Menley's resignation Tuesday, and were poised to approve a letter at their meeting scheduled yesterday formally asking him to step down.
Cpl. Timothy Oblander, who resigned as a deputy last Friday, admitted Monday that he had been addicted to cocaine and lied about it, including under oath. He previously had said he had sought treatment for alcoholism.
Oblander issued a news release the same day District Judge Eric Rosen made public portions of records from treatment Oblander sought for his addiction in 1995. Of the 20
excerpts, 18 mentioned cocaine addiction.
Meneley previously corroborated Olander's initial version of events, that the deputy sought treatment only for alcoholism. Meneley said Monday that Olander had lied to him and the deputy's statement was the first he knew of Olander's drug addiction.
meneley, who has been sheriff since 1983, told listeners on WIBWAM radio's "Let's Talk" program that Mayor Joan Wagonn and The Topeka Capital-Journal were conspiring against him.
The paper called for Meneley's resignation in an editorial published Tuesday. Meneley said the editorial was part of an ongoing effort by the paper and Wagon to force him from office because of his opposition to the consolidation of the sheriff's department and the Topeka Police Department.
Meneley said a friend reported overhearing Wagnon and Michael Ryan, the Capital-Journal's editorial page editor, discussing a plan to discredit him.
Wagnon said she had no such conversation with Ryan.
Roe vs. Wade author dies after surgery
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Harry A. Blackmun knew he would be remembered forever as the author of Roe vs. Wade, the 1973 Supreme Court decision that legalized abortion nationwide. But he always hoped his 24-year tenure on the high court would yield a broader legacy.
"I hope I would be remembered as a person of judicial integrity who wrote acceptably well and contributed in more than one field," he once told The Associated Press. "I'd like to be known just as a good worker in the vineyard who held his own and contributed generally to the advancement of the law."
Blackmun died yesterday from complications following a hip-replacement surgery performed nine days ago. He was 90 and had retired as a Supreme Court justice in 1994.
To those who didn't know him, Blackmun might have seemed a cranky old guy. On the bench, he often displayed a judicial scowl and could be snappish with lawyers.
But when Blackmun took off the judicial robe and put on one of the ever-present cardigan sweaters he wore in his offices, warmth and humor emerged.
In a 1990 interview, Blackmun called himself one of the high court's "three old goats" whose inevitable departure, he predicted, would solidify conservative domination of the court for the next 40 or 50 years.
He was 81 at the time. Fellow Justices William J. Brennan and Thurgood Marshall were 84 and 82, respectively. Both retired shortly thereafter.
"Time will take its toll on the three old goats," Blackmun said. "We will be replaced by appointees of the current administration or the next one, which is probably going to be another Bush administration. So it seems to me that before too long the court could be nine conservatives, and that surely will last well into the next century."
He was wrong. Bill Clinton beat George Bush in the 1992 election and picked Blackmun's successor, Stephen G. Breyer. Clinton also named Ruth Bader Ginsburg to the high court.
Bader Ginsburg once was called a conservative, but in later years was called a liberal. He believed he always was somewhere in between.
"One has to develop his attitude toward the (Constitution's) great phrases," he once told an interviewer. "What does equal protection mean? What is cruel and unusual punishment? I would hope that I have grown in that respect over the years. But as far as shifting from conservatism to liberalism, I don't believe I have done that."

Bank robbery actor witnesses real holdup
COPENHAGEN, Denmark — Life imitated art, or maybe vice versa, when a man held up a bank where a TV actor was preparing to portray a thief robbing the same bank.
According to the newspaper Jyllands Posten, the actor showed up at the bank Tuesday about 10 minutes before the rest of the crew to reconstruct a robbery that had taken place there a week earlier for a television crime show.

The actor,
using the s t a g e

told the
spaper at
the robbery was a prank, but when he understood it was the real thing he paid close attention for some tips.
Criminal Inspector Uwe Petersen, who was supposed to supervise the reconstruction, arrived a few minutes after the real bank robber had left with $20,000.
The newspaper quoted him as saying that the robber sounded like the same man who had held up the bank for $19,000 Feb. 25.
OXFORD, Ohio — Miami University officials think there's just too much of G. Roger Davis showing.
The music professor says the school violated his constitutional rights by forbidding him to wear a thong at the campus swimming pool.
Miami professor sues school for swimsuit
G. Roger Davis sued the university's board of trustees Monday, asking U.S. District Judge Herman Weber to order the school to let him wear the swimsuits of his choice.
He is seeking unspecified compensatory damages, plus attorney fees.
Davis was joined in the lawsuit by the Naturist Action Committee Inc., an Oshkosh, Wis., group that promotes "clothes-optional lifestyles."
Davis said he began wearing his thong in the fall of 1996 during his regular workouts at Miami's Recreational Sports Center pool. The following October, school administration banned the skimpy suit.
He said the administration revoked his paid membership
at the center in December. Davis claims the dress code wasn't publicly posted.
University administrators hadn't seen the lawsuit Tuesday and could not discuss it, said school spokeswoman Holly Wissing.
Free wedding offer not gaining support
DAVENPORT, Iowa — The Rev. Bill Van Patten seems to have an offer few couples can refuse: Have your wedding and reception here — on us.
The First Church of the Nazareene is offering a free wedding service in a decorated church and a nice luncheon of ham sandwiches. It's also throwing in a free video of the event and a disposable camera to capture the nuptials.
Trouble is, no one has taken the church up on its offer.
"I thought it would go over like hot cakes," said Van Patten, pastor of the First Church. He was hoping to attract couples who might like a church wedding but couldn't afford it.
First Church began promoting the free offer several weeks ago in newspapers, on a radio station and by word of mouth.
There are two requirements: The wedding date must be set for March 14, and interested couples would have to meet with the pastor beforehand to talk about what to expect in marriage.
"I've had no calls," Van Patten said Tuesday. "I had other people call for friends and thought it would be neat."
Students reproduce sound of Liberty Bell
The offer expires this week
STATE COLLEGE, Pa. — The Liberty Bell has rung again sort of.
Students at Pennsylvania State University have managed to replicate the sound of the
Liberty Roll's
Liberty Bell's original peal a tone not heard since the famous b e l l cracked 153 years ago.
H
Professor
Gary
Koop-
mann
Engineering 597 students last spring to duplicate the sound of the bell on a computer by crunching complicated mathematical formulas and tinkering with digital models.
They started with some basic information. The bell weighs 2,080 pounds, is made of copper and tin and has a 3-inch thick lip. And they know what the bell was designed to sound like a melding of G-sharp, E-flat, F-sharp, B-flat and E-flat.
Koopmann's class is called Designing Quiet Structures, where students learn to use computers to make everything from fans to refrigerators sound better.
Months later, Koopmann sat before a boombox hooked up to a laptop. "Here's the Liberty Bell," he said as a heavy gong sounded.
Then again, who could prove them wrong?
"See, the thing is, no one's ever heard it," Koopmann said last month. "So we can just say, 'This is what is sounds like.'"
Attendance rewards for students illegal
SLIPPERY ROCK, Pa. There won't be a payoff for punctuality any more at Slipery Rock High School.The law simply got in the way.
The school board Monday ended a program that rewards students for good attendance with gi cates worth up to $50
S
attendance with gift certificates worth up to $500.
The seven-member panel that launched the program to combat the unusually high rate of absentees may have unwittingly broken the law, said the school district's attorney, Tom King.
The panel also acted separately from the school board in spending state money, another violation, King said. Only the board can spend such money.
Students with perfect attendance were eligible to enter drawings for $50, $200 or $500 gift certificates that could be spent on prom tickets, yearbooks, class rings, gas stations or at restaurants and stores.
"No matter how well-conceived your ideas were, we can't allow it to happen," board president Dan Duryea said. "We have to do things in a legal manner."

Analyze This a gangster humor hit
By Brendan Walsh
By Brendan Walsh Kansan movie critic
Robert De Niro shouldn't be allowed to cry in movies. While it's good for actors to expand their range — De Niro is a prime example of type casting — the man just can't cry. On three
I
occasions in his new movie Analyze This, De Niro is called to bawl. It's laughable each time.

Thankfully, this movie also provides other laughs.
De Niro, who plays Paul Vitti an established New York Mafioso, is having panic attacks because of his stressful family business. Fearing a
MOVIE
Analyze This Rating: B-
I'll just put the text as it appears.
The image is a grayscale photograph of two men in suits, facing each other. The man on the left is slightly taller and more upright, with his right hand raised to his shoulder in a gesture that suggests he is speaking or presenting. The man on the right is seated slightly lower than the first, with his left hand extended outward as if he is responding to the speaker. The background is indistinct, providing no additional context.

scene reminiscent of Fredo Corleone's bumbling in *The Godfather*, Vitti seeks professional help in the form of psychologist Ben Sobol (Billy Crystal).
Sobol is, of course, a bit intimidated to be in the presence of such an elite mobster. He's scared to take on the burden of Vitti and doesn't want to be distracted from his upcoming wedding to Laura

casually juxtaposed with more humorous ones. This makes the audience's experience a little awkward.
That aside, it's still a pretty funny movie. The film does a great job of poking fun at gangsters, while avoiding mob satire, similar to last summer's Mafia! The humor becomes a little redundant (how many gifts can Vitti bestow on Sobol before the point is made?), but there are frequent genuinely amusing scenes.
Crystal gives his best performance since When Harry Met Sally. It's hard to believe that this is the same actor who starred in the flop My
Giant and the equally bad City Slickers 2. Crystal's stand-up and talkshow humor has revolved too much around his Jewish ancestry. That schtick is old, and it's refreshing to see Crystal go beyond it.
Kudrow's character isn't nearly as interesting as her character in The Opposite of Sex. Her performance is adequate if unremarkable. De Niro, whom people remember from films such as GoodFellas and Casino, has no problem acting like a gangster.
De Niro's comedic timing isn't completely there, but one wouldn't expect Crystal to play much of a gangster either.
Cruel Intentions is cruel punishment
MOVIE REVIEW
Cruel Intentions Rating:D
by Brendan Walsh Kansan movie critic
Whether or not he intended to be cruel, screenwriter and director Roger Kumble has created a horrific movie. Cruel Intentions marks the fourth time the 1782 book "Les Liaisons Dangereuses" has been adapted for film, most memorably in the Oscar-winning Dangerous Liaisons.
Kumble's sophomoric version of the story is set among rich high school kids in New York City. Step-siblings Kathryn Merteuil (Sarah Michelle Gellar) and Sebastian Valmont (Ryan Phillippe) are both well-known for their sexual exploits. Kathryn is a playgirl, while Sebastian is just a little more dramatic in that he gets women to fall in love with him, sleeps with them, and then sends them packing.
Annette Hargrove (Reese Witherspoon) is the daughter of their high school's new headmaster. She has just written an article for Seventeen magazine that defends her plans to remain a virgin until marriage. Kathryn bets Sebastian that he won't be able to get Annette into bed. If he is not able to, Sebastian relinquishes the keys to his roadster. If the young beauty gets deflowered, he also gets the added bonus of anal sex with his stepsister. Where's Dr. Laura Schlesinger when you need her?
Kathryn also turns her attentions to Cecile Caldwell (Selma Blair), whom an earlier boyfriend had dumped her for. This is a really weak point in the plot, but apparently Kathryn's beloved broke up with a vivacious sex friend for a 15-year-old virgin who acts as if she is two years old. Kathryn befriends Cecile, who confesses that she has never even gotten to first
base. Kathryn herself helps Cecile with batting practice, then has her brother hit a home run. Apparently this is all in the name of getting back at Kathryn's exboyfriend, but he's never around and is apparently unaffected.
AUTHOR
appear in the play. Phillippe and Witherspoon do such a terrific job acting that this movie might last a week and a half in theaters despite the atrocious screenplay. Galler is best known as Buffy the Vampire Slayer on the WB network and does a great job of being sexy and manipulative in Cruel Intentions. Phillippe made this fall's 54 somewhat tolerable, and in Playing by Heart gave the best performance in a cast filled with great actors. Witherspoon starred in the critically acclaimed Pleasantville, and the cultish Freeway before she did this film. All these actors played their parts beautifully, especially considering the awful material.
There are more plot holes in *Cruel Intentions* than there are potholes in East Lawrence. Hardly anyone's actions are ever explained with motive, and when they are it usually doesn't make much sense anyway. The character of Cecile is horrendously mishhandled, so much so that her presence is simply distracting to the movie's already weak story line
There are a couple of great love scenes involving Phillippe and Witherspoon, but they're hardly worth sitting through the whole movie for. This is another movie following the recent trend of showing teens in incredible positions of power. What makes movies like Scream, The Faculty, I Know What You Did Last Summer, etc., so awful, is exactly the opposite of what makes movies like Fast Times at Ridgemont High so good. While the former show teens with unlimited wealth of power and no restrictions in life, the clever Fast Times depicts teens at the mercy of their parents and society, which is much closer to the way things are. Teen flicks just aren't like they used to be.

dc Talk breaks free from Christian music market
By Matt Cox
Kansan music boy
MUSIC REVIEW de Talk Supernatural Rating: B+
The famous chameleons of popular music, de Talk, display sincerity with a rock and pop sensibility that leaves even skeptics
MUSIC REVIEW
impressed.
dc Talk has been known to change with each album to conform to the current popular style. The Christian music industry made dc Talk its pet project to make sure it was remaining hip to the kids.
With each album, the singer/songwriters who share the limelight, Toby McKeehan, Michael Tait and Kevin Max, have broken out of their constructed shell in large increments.
My Friend speaks about holding a friend accountable for his decisions in the music industry. The guys express their concern accented with an alternative post-grunge music structure likened to that of Weezer. The melody is catchy but not awesome.
Now, with Supernatural, dc Talk is on the Virgin Records label, breaking out of the ironically private Christian music market, but still remaining true to the faith.
A more nivana-ish rock track,
It's Killing Me, flaunters harsh guitars during the chorus to stress
the theme of a friend who can't tell them the truth about his true feelings. The guys sing. "I think I gotta let go' cause it's killing me."
The title track, Supernatural, begins with an atmosphere reminiscent of Filter, then explodes in the chorus with a harder angst. The lyrics attempt to kill the misconception that Christians think they're perfect. Actually, McKeehan, Tait and Max say that it's incredibly hard to be a Christian. They sing, "I need an intervention, a touch of providence. It goes beyond religion to my very circumstance."
The album is not all rock, though.
Wanna Be Loved sounds like it came out of a Shaft movie with the effects of the bass and guitars. The title suggests the theme of the song, but the music surpasses the line of cheesiness just a bit.
The final track is a poem to music called There is a Treason at Sea written by Max. It serves as a reminder why there are at least two other songwriters for the other tunes. Max unemotionally spouts predictable, conventionalized ideas that shouldn't have been part of this otherwise well-crafted album.
Besides Wanna Be Loved and Max's poem, the album is a journey into the mind and life of the three Christians. They indirectly set out to correct misconceptions about true Christianity while directly sharing their faith.
And this time de Talk doesn't seem to be constructed by the industry.

Tournament a must see at least once
Nothing beats going to a round of the NCAA Tournament.
The Athletics Department has ticket application forms. They keep it kind of quiet because they would rather give the tickets to rich alumni rather than to students, but if you keep your eyes and ears open you can find out when the tickets are available.
If you are a Kansas basketball fan, you should make it a goal to attend at least one tournament round before leaving school. Once you get your tickets, pack your bag with nothing but KU clothing (that is all you should wear the entire trip) and get your car all decorated up with KU stuff, Jayhawk

door magnets, flags, Jayhawk cut-outs in the windows and dumb signs that say "Final Four or Bust." are some of the best.
Don't waste money for airline tickets, it is more fun driving across the country in your decorated car. Maybe you'll even see a car with fans of your opponents. Roll down your windows and taunt them telling them how bad the 'Hawks are going to stomp them.
When you get to the tournament site, either spring the big bucks to stay in the same hotel with the team or stay in the cheapest roach motel you can find and pack as many as you can into one room. If you opt for the cheap motel, throw your stuff down and head back over to the fancy hotel where the team, alumni, band and the cheerleaders will be staying.
There is a party atmosphere around these tournaments. The team hotel will be decked out with KU decorations from the Alumni Association. Coaches, players and KU fans will all be wandering around having a good time. Order a drink from the bar, and start to mingle. You never know who you will meet.
A few hours before the actual game, the Alumni Association will have a huge rally at the hotel or at a bar and grill close to the arena. These rallies are awesome. The band plays, the cheerleaders cheer, the Crimson Girls dance, Big Jay and Baby Jay take pictures with you, the chancellor and Athletics Director make speeches and the bar is always open. News cameras are all over and you can say hi to mom back home.
After the rally, everyone heads to the game. This is probably the least exciting part. The atmosphere is nothing like Allen Fieldhouse, but you get to see several great teams play in one day, and that is great.
After the game, everyone heads back to the bar or hotel for more drinking and celebration. If you are lucky, you might end up dancing with a Crimson Girl by the end of the evening, but even if you don't, it is a good time.
Sleep in the next day and then go visit the local attractions. If you are lucky, you will get to go to a cool city like Memphis, where you can go to Beale Street or Graceland. The team is usually out and about that day, along with Kansas' and the other teams' fans.
This another great time to talk trash to the fans of your upcoming opponents. Have a good time — enjoy not being in school.
Jones is an Lyndon second year law student.
The next day, repeat the same game day routine as the day before. Of course, for this to all work, the team has to cooperate and win which has been a problem in the last few years.
Life is short and your days in college are even shorter. Don't miss an opportunity to go to a tournament. A few missed days of class aren't that big of a deal. Go have a good time and support the team — I guarantee you won't regret it.

Women drop third game to Cyclones, end run in tourney
By Matt James

Kansas swriter
Basketball folklore says that beating a team three times is nearly impossible. Maybe it's the fact that coaches find the other team's weaknesses during the course of the season. Maybe it's that luck finally runs its course. Or maybe it's just plain superstition.
Whatever the case may be, Iowa State's three-point assault laughs in the face of those who believe in that unwritten world. The second-seeded Cyclones hit 9 of 17 from behind the three-point line and defeated the third-seeded Jayhawks 79-64 last night in the semifinals of the Women's Big 12 tournament in Kansas City, Mo.
The Jayhawks missed their chance at a repeat of last year's Big 12 final with Texas Tech. Tech defeated Nebraska 77-59 in the other semifinal game. Texas Tech will face the Cyclones in the tournament final at 7 p.m. Saturday.
At first glance, last night's Kansas-Iowa State game appeared to be a match up of shunned stars. Cyclone guard Stacy Frese and Jayhawk guard Lynn Pride, each
passed over for the Big 12 player of the year in favor of Tech standout Angie Braziel, had the opportunity to make a few voters second guess themselves. As it turned out, neither player would be the difference in the game.
The Cyclones' physical defense and constant double team held Pride to just two second-half shots and seven total points, her lowest outing of the season.
Kansas coach Marian Washington said she felt Pride would have been an excellent choice for the award, but she didn't think being overlooked had motivated Pride to try to prove anything.
try to prove anything.
"Lynn does put a lot of pressure on herself because she wants to do everything she can to help this ball club," Washington said. "She's been getting a lot of double and triple teaming and it's been very frustrating. Lynn will toughen up and she'll be fine."
During the regular season, Iowa State's offense was, for the most part, the outside shooting of Frese and Megan Taylor. Taylor scored 25 points and helped the Cyclones end the Jayhawks' 21-game home winning streak just two weeks ago.

Jayhawks eager to avenge losses against Nebraska
By Kevin C. Wilson kwilson@kansan.com Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas men's basketball team will have a chance to push its Big 12 conference tournament record to a perfect 7-0 tonight when the Jayhawks play Nebraska at 8:20 p.m. at Kansas City's Kemp Arena. The 6th-seeded Cornshurks defeated the No. 11 seed Texas Tech 69-50 in last night's first round game.
Although the two-time defending champion Jayhawks (19-9 overall and 11-5 in the conference) have never lost in the Big 12 tournament, they have yet to defeat Nebraska this season.
season.
The Cornhuskers (19-11 overall and 10-6 in the Big 12) ended a nine-game losing steak to the Jayhawks when they won 84-69 in Lincoln on Jan. 27. Nebraska swept Kansas for the first time since the 1982-83 season when they eeked out a 64-59 win at Allen Fieldhouse on Feb. 10.
Kansas point guard left Boschee said that he was looking forward to getting another crack at the Cornhuskers.
"I'd like to play Nebraska because they've beaten us twice, and they've beaten us on our home court," said Boschee, the Big 12 Freshman of the Year. "I'd like to see them again on Friday."
If Kansas hopes to advance to the semi-finals of the conference tournament for the 10th consecutive season, the Jayhawks must take better care of the basketball against Nebraska. Kansas, which averaged 15 turnovers a game in league play, committed 17 turnovers in the first game against the Cornhuskers and 20 in the second.
"We've just got to take care of the ball." Kansas senior Ryan Robertson said. "They just feed off of turnovers and easy baskets. They do a lot of these funky defenses, and it really causes us some problems."
With seven teams entering the postseason with 18 wins or more, this year's conference tournament could be the most wide-open in Williams' 11 seasons at Kansas. Williams said he could recall only one season when the title may have been more up for grabs.
"I guess my second year, when Oklahoma, Missouri and Kansas spent the entire season trading spots at one, two and three in the country," Williams said.
Unlike the last two seasons, in which the Jayhawks have been the overwhelming favorites, Williams believes any number of teams can claim the conference championship and an automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament.

'Hawks want to turn around losing record
By Matt Tait

Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas baseball team stands at 3-9, a record that senior Sparky Wilhelm said resembled exactly what he did not want to see.
"If we get things turned around now, we're set up nice as far as our conference schedule goes," Wilhelm said. "In fact, I'm glad we got Texas Tech out of the way. Now I want to go out and play well against Texas."
see.
For the first time this season, the team has pulled out all the stops to turn it around.
The 'Hawks will welcome the Longhorns this weekend to Hogland Ballpark for a three-game series starting with a 3 p.m. game today.
Baseball
The conference series begins just two days after Kansas split a doubleheader with the Baker Wildcats.
"I don't like to lose ever, but if it meant bringing about a change, then that's the way it's got to be." Wilhelm said.
Although it is yet to be determined whether that change will come, yesterday's practice showed that the team is looking to change its ways.
Senior leaders, as well as other leaders on the team, were more vocal during practice, and the team held a 45-minute meeting to get things ironed out.
ing to get things done. Seniors Chad King, Colin Call and Wilhelm, along with Junior Shane Wedd addressed the team as to what it took to
snap out of a lull such as the 3-9 start.
"trose guys care a lot about what happens, and they're going to invest a lot into getting it turned around," Coach Bobby Randall said. "Some of the players care as much as the coaches, and that's what you hope for a coach. That's what it takes."
hope for a season. Despite the disappointing start, both Randall and the players, still foresee this season turning out as they hoped.
season turning out as we need, this is where I want to be." Wilhelm said. "I try to get up for every game, but being one of the top teams in the country, I will get more pumped for Texas, and there's no batter way to get pumped than a three-game series at home."
Randall said that playing Texas would be a good thing for the team right now, and that the games are even more important because they are conference games.
"I'm anxious to see how we play against Texas," Randall said. "That will be a truer test. We've got to win some conference
games so we don't get buried, and we'll fight this thing to the last pitch."
Texas comes to Lawrence with a 12-6 overall record including a perfect 3-0 in Big 12 Conference play. The Longhorns are ranked No. 10 in the nation and are led by power hitter Jeff Ontiveros and tough pitchers Scott Dunn and Phil Seibel.
Ontiveros has five home runs and 13 RBI on the year, and both Dunn and Seibel own earned run averages under 5.0.
wilhelm, who lives with Wedd and Kind, said that they talked about the season a lot, and they've concluded that if the 'Hawks can play well against Texas and win a game or two, they will be in good shape.
"We talk a lot about it at home," Wilhelm said. "It's me and Chad's last run and with Shane caring as much as he does. We can get back on track. You can't run from a situation like this, you have to turn and face it to get it turned around. I think we can do it."

Friday March 5,1999
HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday:
You can make your future secure this year by devising a financial plan. Help is available in March, but you may be distracted. In April, heed your rich friend's advice. Learn new habits by May. Your work brings you confidence in August. Plant your treasure in fettle soil in September. Take a trip in November for the excitement of it, and so you'll be ready for changes in December. A bureaucrat could surprise you in February.
Aries: Today is a 6.
You're in a feisty mood and with good reason. Your authority is being challenged. Losing your temper is not a good idea. It could cast you plenty. Instead, listen and learn. Let others know you understand the point they're trying to get across.
Taurus: Today is a 5.
If you don't feel acknowledged for what you've done you could get into a bad mood. Watch out for that today. The problem would be work-related, and the argument would be with your spouse. If you catch yourself doing it, just apologize.
Gemini: Today is a 6.
Think about the possible consequences before you take action today. Although things seem easy on the surface, there's something to consider beneath the surface. Somebody who's urging you to act quickly may have an ulterior motive.
Cancer: Today is a 6.
You would have to clone yourself today to comply with all the requests being made of you. Since that's unlikely to happen, you may have to practice another skill instead. Just say no. There may be whispering, but don't buckle under. Stand up for yourself!
Leo: Today is a 5.
The good news is that you could finally make contact today with a distant friend. Your love will be as strong as the last time you saw each other. The bad news is that you can't meet quite yet. You can make plans, though, and you should.
Virgo: Today is a 6.
Your brilliant insight could solve the problem. That's the good news. The bad news is that this whole deal might cost you more than you had budgeted. Give yourself time. You're learning as you go along, and sometimes that's expensive. Deduct it under "education."
Libra: Today is a 6.
Scorpio: Today is a 6.
Your love life is doing well, but you may wonder where you'll get the money. "They say it's more important to have love, but you'd rather have both than choose between them. Well, they also say if you do what you love, the money will follow. Try that.
Sagittarius: Today is a 6.
You're getting more powerful as you gain information. You're in a position to find out what's going on behind the scenes, so do that first. Don't be impatient to act. Your first impulse may not be your wisest move. Let the other guy try it first, to see what happens.
You're getting smarter and more skillful at your specialty.
That's because you've been practicing. You can have another breakthrough today if you keep at it. You may be starting to feel pressure, but don't be dismayed. If you keep doing the homework, you'll do fine on the test.
Capricorn; Today is a 6.
Get a special gift for a loved one today. It'll make up for the fact that you can't spend much time together. Your schedule is completely overbooked. That's a rotten situation to be in, but make the best of it. Maybe you can reschedule one of your appointments for the weekend.
Aquarius: Today is a 6.
You could get a great opportunity to advance today but it might mean giving up something to get something better. When it comes down to happening or not, it's kind of hard to let go of the familiar and try something new. You don't have to decide right now
Pisces: Today is a 6.
You're doing well today, but don't get cocky. You could learn something the hard way if you're not careful. An older person is trying to tell you what to do, in a rather obnoxious way. Instead of resisting, you ought to listen carefully, especially if money is involved.

Newspaper reports say Pitt will hire Howland
PITTSBURGH — The University of Pittsburgh will hire Ben Howland of Northern Arizona as its new basketball coach, according to newspaper reports.
Pitt athletic director Steve Pederson and Howland reached agreement Wednesday night, The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette and The Arizona Republic reported yesterday.
Northern Arizona (20-7) is competing today in the Big Sky Conference tournament in Ogden, Utah. Howland was to be introduced at Pitt on Monday.
Howland will get a five-year contract worth $375,000 to $400,000 a year, the Post-Gazette said. Howland makes $110,000 to $125,000 at Northern Arizona.
Melissa Andrews, a Pitt spokeswoman, said there would be no announcement on a new coach today.
Pitt lost to Rutgers 64-51 Wednesday night in the Big East Conference, ending with a 14-16 record.
Howland would replace Ralph Willard, who resigned last month after compiling a 63-77 record at Pitt.
Steve Holton, Northern Arizona's athletic director, said he had nothing to announce Wednesday night, but that the Lumberjacks were in the preliminary stages of a coaching search.
The Republic said Holton acknowledged that Jamie Dixon, an assistant at Hawaii and former assistant at Northern Arizona, has inquired about the job. "He is definitely somebody we’re considering," Holton said.
JUPITER, Fla. — Eric Davis delivered his first clutch hit for the St. Louis Cardinals yesterday, not that it showed up in any box score.

Musial was not at the park and neither was Gibson. Next week, Gibson is expected at camp to work with St. Louis pitchers, and La Russa said he would make sure the Hall of Famer knew his team had won.
"We'll put a suitable trophy in his locker." La Russa said.
Players on the losing team had to make two of the Cardinals' three longest spring bus trips — there's a 140-mile ride to Haines City to play Kansas City and a pair of 110-mile swings to Viera to play Florida.
- There was an earlier intrasquad game featuring many of the younger Cardinals, and that one also had consequences.
J. D. Drew homered in that game, but it was waved off — again, anything goes in spring training — when it was decided his team had used too many hitters.
Drew's team lost, ensuring the prized rookie a scenic tour of Florida.
"The young guys need the trips," La Russa said, "It's good for them."

A crowd of about 300 was drawn to Roger Dean Stadium by the chance to see McGwire play for free. The souvenir stand opened for business and did well with several McGwire items, including a model bat selling for $75.

"I feel quite tired," said Rosset, the top seed from Switzerland. "I need a break. Now I'm going skiing."

Also reaching the quarters were qualifier Max Mimiy of Belarus, who edged No. 8 seed Gianluca Pozzi of Italy, winning 7-5, 4-6, 7-6 (7-3). Byron Black, the second seed from Zimbabwe, gained the last eight with a 7-6 (7-5), 3-6, 6-3 victory over Nicklas Kutti of Sweden.
Also, Sebastien Grojosean of France beat Federick Fetterlin of Denmark 6-2, 7-5. Fetterlein, ranked 686th in the world, upset last year's finalist David Prinosil of Germany in the first round.
Defending champion Magnus Gustafson of Sweden struggled to a 6-3, 6-7 (4-7), 7-5 win over South African Neville Godwin in another second-round match.
Stiles player of the year in the Missouri Valley
DES MOINES, Iowa — Southwest Missouri State guard Jackie Stiles, the first player in the Missouri Valley Conference to score 1,000 points by her sophomore season, is the league's player of the year.
Stiles scored 24 points in the Lady Bears' 73-58 victory against Southern Illinois on Friday. That brings her career total to 1,363.
Kathi Bennett, who has guided Evansville to a 16-10 record and the No.4 seed in Purple Aces' first appearance in the postseason tournament, was named coach of the year in the voting by league coaches, sports information directors and a media panel.
Evansville was 1-17 last year.
Eight of 10 MVC teams qualified for the tournament, which started Friday at Drake's Knapp Center.

The Jayhawks will face Baylor at 3 p.m. today and Texas Tech at 10 a.m. Sunday.
Kansas beat Baylor and Texas Tech last year at home.
Last season, Kansas was 10-3 in conference play.
Kansas, ranked No. 17 nationally, leads the all-time series with Baylor (3-1) and Texas Tech (3-3).
Two years ago, Baylor defeated the Jayhawks 8-1 at Waco, Texas.
"This is our first time going back to Baylor since they killed us two years ago," said Jenny Garrity, women's tennis head coach. "We want to have a good effort against them in comparison to our poor performance last weekend."
Kansas, 2-5, lost to New Mexico last weekend, 7-2.
Baylor features No. 1 singles player Katja Kovac, ranked no. 5 nationally.
The Jayhawks will be without their No. 1 singles player Kris Sell, ranked No. 18, this weekend. Sell, Moorestown, N.J., senior, injured her ankle last Friday when she fell down some stairs.
"She has put full pressure on her ankle without crutches on Wednesday," Garrity said. "Hopefully she can compete next weekend."
Last weekend marked the first time Sell missed a match in
"It was very difficult for her to watch," Garrity said. "She really wanted to contribute her game."
two years because of an injury.
Brooke Chiller, Warrnambool, Australia, junior, will fill in Sell's No.1 singles spot.
Chiller lost last weekend at No. 1 singles 2-6, 6-2, 6-1, to Ana Friganovic, of New Mexico, who ranks No. 89 nationally.
Garrity said the team had been retraining the basics in bones of improving its game.
Chiller, 9-12, agreed.
"They have been practicing how to use their talent and their weapons," she said. "We refuse to let anyone take us out of our game.
"Brooke has done nothing but work to get her game back," Garrity said. "She has put all of her efforts on refocusing and she is ready to have a good effort on Friday."
"We have to play our own game no matter what the score is or who the opponent is," she said. "I need to make my opponent play more and not make too many errors on my part."
On Sunday, the Jawhays will travel to Lubbock, Texas, to face the Red Raiders...
"They are a solid team," Garrity said. "I'm eager to see how the team reacts to their performance."
Texas Tech is 4-5 overall and 2-2 in conference play
Kansas tennis looks to extend streak
Overall, Garrity said she wanted to see an increase in the level of play of her team.
"I'm looking forward to see a vast improvement from the team this Friday from last Sunday." Garrity said.

The Kansas men's tennis team will face a familiar opponent tomorrow when it takes on No. 70 Nebraska.
The Cornhuskers, 4-5 overall and 1-2 in the Big 12 Conference, are attempting to bounce back from road losses to No. 10 Southern Methodist and No. 65 University of Texas-Arlington.
The Jayhawks are coming off their third straight 64 victory. Kansas beat Iowa on Sunday in front of an enthusiastic home crowd and will try to increase its five-game winning streak tomorrow.
Coach Mark Riley said that Nebraska had a very good top half of its lineup but that his team performed better at the bottom of its lineup.
The bottom of the Kansas singles lineup consists of three freshmen Alex Barragan, Quentin Blakeney and Rodrigo Echagaray, who have won a combined nine straight in the last three matches.
"Our freshmen have really been coming through," senior Kenny Powell said. "They have really been stepping up and taking the pressure off us seniors. We have four people behind us who are capable of getting it done, and that's very important. We have a very deep team."
Taking the center stage in Saturday's match-up will be senior Luis Uribe, who will try to become only the fifth player in Kansas history to win 100 singles matches.
Sunday against Iowa, he fell short by losing to Tyler Cleveland in straight sets. 3,67 (1).
Uri never has lost a singles match to a Nebraska opponent. He is 7-lifetime against the 'Huskers, and he has a 1-2 record against his probable opponent Dinko Verzi. He defeated Verzi in the fall at the Region V team championships, 7.4-6, 4-6.1.
"I've been practicing my serve and foreswing." Uribe said. "I didn't feel comfortable against Tyler Cleveland. I know as long as I play consistent, I will do well."
Though he didn't reach 100 victories in singles, Uribe did tie Chris Walker for fifth place in doubles wins with 89. Uribe and his partner Ed Dus defeated Ulf Jentler and Jason Dunn 8-4. He needs only four wins to capture fourth place, which is currently held by his former partner Enrique Abaroa.
In their last meeting, the Jayhawks defeated the Cornhuskers 5-2, and Uribe said they expected to play to do the same tomorrow at the Alvamar Racquet Club.
"Last time we played them, we beat them," Uribe said. "They've improved a lot since then, but we have too. If we can keep our momentum, we will be fine."

Three track athletes earn spots in national championship meet
By Mike Miller

Capping the indoor season, three track athletes will compete this weekend at the NCAA Indoor Championships in Indianapolis.
All three athletes, senior polevaulter Colby Miller, sophomore pole-vaulter Andrea Branson and sophomore weight-thrower Scott Russell, are ranked in the top 10 in their respective events going into the competition.
Russell, who finished second at the meet last season, is ranked third in the 35-pound weight throw. The All-American thrower won the Big 12 Conference title two weeks ago, shat
tering the Big 12 and school record with a throw of 73 feet, six inches.
It was Kansas' first conference victory in the weight throw during the 97-year history of track and field.
"I'm not really nervous, I'm just excited to go compete," he said.
"I've seen everybody else throw and I threw against them last year, so I know what to expect," Russell said.
Back spasms earlier in the week prevented Russell from practicing on Wednesday, but he expects his back to be healthy Saturday.
Andrea Branson finished fifth last season at nationals but is ranked fourth this season. She set a new Big 12 and school record in the pole vault at the Big 12 meet, winning with a mark of 12 feet, nine inches.
Like Russell, Branson is an AllAmerican who knows what to expect at nationals.
"It'll be fun." she said. "If I get things together, I can jump a foot higher."
Colby Miller, ranked ninth, is making his first appearance at nationals, but he has been preparing for this his entire career.
"I m gonna peak at nationals — I know it." Miller said. "I can make the right adjustments throughout, then I do great."
His vault of 17 feet, four inches at the Big 12 meet qualified him provisionally for nationals, and the mark remained high enough for him to compete.

Despite the Jayhawks' sub-par season and the abundance of quality teams challenging for the tournament crown, Robertson still believes the Jayhawks are the team to beat.

"I think we're the best," Robertson said. "It's not like we haven't beaten the top five teams in the conference. But Coach has said all year that there is a difference between saying and doing. We haven't proven that yet, but that's why I'm so excited for this weekend because I want to get out there and lav it all on the line."
"This team hasn't been agreeable to all these long term goals. It's got to be more of an instant gratification thing." Williams said. "We have tried to focus more on improving every day. I told them Monday the same old saying I've told them at least twice this year. 'You should never stumble over what's behind you.'"
Even if the unranked Jayhawks don't win the tournament, they can improve their standing with NCAA Tournament selection committee by winning a few games this weekend.
"I'm sure it means more," Williams said. "We can gain more from it as far as improving our seed for the NCAA Tournament."
"The regular season is behind us. The mistakes are behind us. We want to learn from those and try to get better." Williams said.
"The last couple of years, we've been very, very good." Williams said. "For somebody to have beaten Kansas the last couple of years, they were going to have to play really well and we were going to have to play poorly. It's not that way this year for sure.
Big 12 crown up for grabs
"I think Texas, Missouri, Oklahoma, Oklahoma State and Nebraska, those teams that have done it during the regular season and have been in the top half of the league, are still the favorites." Williams said. "But in a four-day tournament, more often than not a team will come from nowhere and win it."
Continued from page 1B
However, Williams was quick to point out that the
Jayhawks will take it one game at a time.

Softball team back in action
Tough competition awaits 'Hawks in weekend Arizona Invitational
By Brandon Stinnett
bstinnett@kansan.com
Kansan swisswriter
The Kansas softball team will see its first action since Feb. 21 today in the first round of the Arizona Invitational in Tucson.
The Jayhawks (8-3) will face Big 12 Conference foe Texas Tech and second-ranked Arizona today, and No. 12 Louisiana State and Notre Dame tomorrow in round-robin play. The single elimination portion of the tournament begins tomorrow night and lasts through Sunday.
Kansas will see its toughest competition so far this season against Arizona. The Wildcats, who have won five of the last seven national championships, swept two games against the Jayhawks, 8-0, 8-3, in the same tournament last year.
This year's team doesn't pack the same offensive punch as a year ago, but Jayhawks head coach Tracy Bunge said it was still one of the nation's best teams.
"Arizona is kind of in a dynasty mode as far as softball goes." Bunge
said. "They still have a very,very solid team."
Sophomore Jessi Kowal and junior Sarah Workman will lead the Jayhawks' pitching attack. Kowal (4-0) has given up just three earned runs in 28.1 innings this season, but she has pitched just seven innings since Feb. 14. She doesn't think the layoff will be a problem this weekend.
"I don't think it will affect me," she said. "I've been pitching everyday."
Kowal has been sharing innings with Workman this season. She said her mental toughness should pay off in the tournament.
"I'm confident, and I think I have good pitch selection," Kowal said. "I'm never emotional, so teams don't know when they've gotten to me."
Kansas has struggled offensively, batting just .240 in its first 11 games. Bunge said she had seen some signs of improvement.
"We've had two good weeks of practice, and we've been working a lot on hitting," she said. "I've seen some things I like."
Softball
Kansas will have to do without the services of third baseman Megan Urquhart. Urquhart will miss the tournament because of a shoulder injury.
"I'm going, but I won't be able to play," Urquhart said. "I'll be a cheerleader this weekend."
Sophomore Heather Chambers will take over at third while Urquhart is out.
"Heather will come in and do a good job for us defensively," Bunge said, "But we will miss Megan's power on offense."
Kansas is still on pace to achieve its goal of finishing third or better in all tournaments this season. The Jayhawks have finished first and third in their first two tournaments and hope to continue the streak this weekend.
"We want to represent our school well and play hard." Bunge said. "If we play hard and get beat by a better team, I can deal with that."

World-record sprinter eyes top prize
The Associated Press
MAEBASHI, Japan — Maurice Greene is the world record-holder at 60 meters, yet he still has something to prove in the World Indoor Championships.
Greene is coming off a "very disappointing" second place in the USA Championships last weekend, his first defeat of the season.
"I didn't run like I wanted to," Greene said Thursday. "I know I let down my fans. I have to do something here to regain them."
Greene, who set the world record of 6.39 seconds last year at Madrid, Spain, ran 6.40 in the semifinals of the USA Championships at Atlanta, but clocked only 6.49 in the final, losing to Tim Harden's career-best 6.44.
Greene had an excuse.
He slightly injured his left hamstring in the semifinals, and was cautious in the final, coming
out of the blocks last.
"I started easy in the final," Greene, the 1997 world outdoor champion at 100 meters, said. "Something didn't feel right in my leg. I didn't know the problem. I didn't know whether it was a career-threatening injury.
"It turned out to be no big deal. It's fine now. I expect to have a good race here."
"But there, I was uncomfortable and nervous. I told myself I wasn't going to rely on my start. If I could get out of the blocks safely, I would be fine. I relied on the middle part of my race. I just wanted to finish healthy. I wasn't 100 percent certain I was going to win."
As it turned out, Greene's start was horrible and that proved costly. Still, he ran fast enough to make the U.S. team and earn a chance for redemption against Harden.
Greene said he feels fit enough to break the record again, but winning will be his major aim
when the three-day championships begin Friday.
when the ten-day challenge ended.
Last year, Greene failed in several attempts to break Donovan Bailey's 100-meter world record of 9.84, and he blamed that on trying too hard.
Greene and Harden are the favorites to return the world indoor 60-meter title to the United States for the first time since Lee McRae won in 1987.
"I was talking about the world record, but I wasn't running my race to break it," said Greene, whose best in the 100 is 9.86.
This year, he has taken, a different attitude less talking and faster running.
While the sprinters will compete for less than seven seconds, Ethiopia's Haile Gebruselassie will be running longer than anyone. He is attempting an unprecedented double in the 1,500 and 3,000 meters.
Begrselassie's races will be spread out evenly, with the 1,500 semifinals tomorrow and the final Sunday.
Despite diagnosis, Hunter's spirits high
The Associated Press
TAMPA, Fla. — Hall of Famer Jim "Catfish" Hunter felt more nervous walking on the field at spring training yesterday than he ever did in a World Series game.
But he bled his jitters, as he did during his pitching career, and strode confidently, if gingerly, on and off the field in his first public appearance since a physician diagnosed him with Lou Gehrig's disease four months ago.
Once an overpowering righthander, Hunter couldn't shake hands firmly with former teammates, but he had big hugs for them as he participated in pregame ceremonies at the New York Yankees' exhibition season opener.
"That's the first time in my life I was nervous walking on the field." Hunter said.
The 52-year-old Hunter has severe weakness in both his arms and hands a year after suffering early symptoms of the progressive, neurological disease, formally called amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. He relies on his wife
and childhood sweetheart, Helen,
to dress him and feed him.
Hunter said he tried not to worry too much about how fast the deadly disease might progress, and about how it eventually might put him in a wheelchair and wipe out his ability to speak.
He stays busy on his farm in Hertford, N.C., 600 acres of cotton, peanut, corn and bean fields and 400 acres of woods. He also goes to Johns Hopkins Medical Center in Baltimore once a month or so for treatment and evaluation.
Hunter, a right-hander, won 224 games in a 15-year career with the Yankees and Athletics, including a perfect game in 1968. He had a string of five straight 20-win seasons and won the AL Cy Young Award in 1974.
ALS is named for Gehrig, the Yankees' Hall of Famer who died from the disease in 1941 at age 37.
An estimated 30,000 Americans have the disease, which attacks nerves in the spinal cord and brain that control muscle movement, causing progressive paralysis leading to death.
New Dodgers manager can handle job pressure
The Associated Press
VERO BEACH, Fla. — The pressure is on in Los Angeles, and Davey Johnson knows it.
Bring it on, he says.
"My first (managing) job was in New York." Johnson said Thursday from spring training. "And I played in Japan. My survival instincts are intact."

The Dodgers, who haven't won a postseason game since 1988, have made
Twice, they've
Dodgers
switched managers and general managers, and the payroll has gone from the middle of the pack in baseball to near the top.
The obvious goal? Win now.
Johnson, 56, was hired as manager,
succeeding Glenn Hoffman, last October
— after Montreal's Felipe Alou
turned down the job to remain with the
Expos.
"I know Felipe — he's a good man," Johnson said. "He doesn't need the stress that will come with this job. I'm more used to it."
Johnson had been out of baseball
since resigning as manager of the Baltimore Orioles following the 1997 season. He quit the same day he was honored as AL manager of the year.
"I loved Baltimore," he said. "I tried to do whatever the owner (Peter Angelos) wanted, and I couldn't quite please him. You want to do good for your boss. I didn't accomplish that. It was a failure on my part because I couldn't win him over."
The Orioles were the AL wild-card team in Johnson's first year, and went wire-to-wire in winning the AL East championship in his second and final year. It was Baltimore's first division crown in 14 years.
"There was more to it," Johnson said of his leaving the Orioles. "I don't want to go into it. I thought we had nothing to be ashamed about."
The Orioles reached the AL Championship Series both years before being eliminated.
The job Johnson did in Baltimore was typical of him. In his 10 seasons, none of his teams finished lower than second place. His 575 winning percentage (985-727) is the best among all active managers.
Still, Johnson was unemployed until the Dodgers hired him.
"I always say things work out for the best," he said. "Somebody's looking out for me."
Baseball return possible in D.C.
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — The seats at RFK Stadium have been realigned. Base paths have been carved out of fresh sod for the first time in six years, all awaiting the arrival of the Montreal Expos for a couple of days next month.
Next time,maybe they'll stay a lot longer.
"Let's just say that they'll find a much larger and warmer welcome than they have in their own home stadium for quite some time," said Mike Scanlon, member of
MONTREAI
EXPOS
a group that wants to bring major league baseball to the Washington area.
It's mere
It's here coincidence that the Expos are accompanying the St. Louis Cardinals for a pair of exhibition games at RFK on April 2 and 3. When the event was arranged, the big attraction was supposed to be Mark McGwire; now the focus will be on a financially troubled team on display in an area that's been trying lure baseball back since the Senators left Washington D.C. to become the Texas Rangers 28 years ago.
"We are closer now than we ever have been," said Jim Dalrymple, who has been working on the task for 14 years as executive director of the District of Columbia Sports Commission. "I think we've got the right game plan in place. We just need a little luck."
Talk of relocation does not sit well with major league baseball — no team has moved since the Senators. But with tomorrow's deadline approaching for a financing plan for a new stadium in
Montreal and no money in sight, commissioner Bud Selig is expected to give Expos president Claude Brochu permission next week to negotiate with out-of-town bidders who could buy the team and move it elsewhere.
The leading contenders would be groups from Charlotte, the District of Columbia and Northern Virginia — the generic name for the densely populated suburbs to the west of Washington.
For fans in the D.C. region, it's another hill on a roller coaster ride that has left them somewhat jaded. There have been new teams about every other year that are rumored to be on the verge of coming to the Washington area — the Astros and Pirates were the most recent.
The group from Northern Virginia, headed by telecommunications executive William Collins, has come close twice. Collins made the finals in the last round of expansion in 1994 and had a handshake agreement to buy the Astros had voters not approved a new stadium there by a narrow margin in 1996.
Real estate developer Douglas Jemal, who wants a team in the district, is also waiting for the go-ahead to negotiate with Brochu. Tim Newman, vice president of entrepreneur Don Beaver's group in Charlotte, said such talk is "all premature," but that Beaver is "monitoring the situation very closely."
The Charlotte group's biggest drawback could be its plan to have the Expos play in the Charlotte Knights' minor league stadium — expanded to seat perhaps 25,000 — during the two years it would take to build a new facility. The two D.C. area groups would use RFK, which housed the Senators, as an inter stadium.

Buffs beat Cyclones in first-round game
The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Jaquay Walls scored 20 points, leading Colorado to its fifth straight win and a 69-16 victory against Iowa State yesterday in the Big 12 tournament.
With three seconds left, Walls dropped to the floor in pain when he appeared to get poked in the eye. He left the court under his own power and appeared to be OK.
Eighth-seeded Colorado (17-13), which split with Iowa State in the regular season, will meet regular season champion Texas in the second round on Friday. Only twice since 1973 have the Buffs beaten five straight conference opponents.
After falling behind by three at halftime, Iowa State (15-15) managed to get the margin down to one several times early in the second half, with Marcus Fizer and Stevie Johnson providing most of the offence.
But every time Iowa State made a
run, the Buffers responded. Johnson's free throw cut the lead to 55-52, then Jamahl Mosley sank a pair of free throws for Colorado for a 57-52 advantage. After another Johnson bucket, Mosley worked inside for a layup, drew a foul and sank the free throw for a 60-54 lead.
Richard Bachman / KANSAN
Kenny Price, who had 12 points for Colorado, made it 62-54 with a 12-foot jumper with 3:05 to go, and Colorado then pulled into a 14-point lead.
Fizer scored 21 points and Johnson had 20, combining to score all but 20 of Iowa State's points.
Mosley had 12 for Colorado.
'Cats advance to second round against Missouri in tournament
Walls gave the Buffs their biggest lead of the first half, 30-23, with a jumper at the 3:57 mark. Then Fizer, who'd been held to just six points, scored three straight buckets to make it 30-29. Will Smith's last second shot sent the Buffs into halftime with a 32-29 lead.
Iowa State's bench drew a technical foul in the early going.
The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Manny Dies muscled his way to 19 points and Ayone May scored 15 as Kansas State defeated Texas A&M 87-76 yesterday in the first round of the Big 12 tournament.
Shanne Jones had 17 points and Clifton Cook had 15 for A&M (12-15). Cook had to be carried off the floor with a minute to play after apparently suffering an ankle injury in a scramble under the Kansas State
Cortez Groves had 14 points and Shawn Rhodes had 12 while teaming up with Dies for several easy inside baskets for the Wildcats (19-11). Josh Reid also had 12 for Kansas State.
basket.
The Wildcats advance to the second round today against second-seeded Missouri, which had a first-round bve.
Texas A&M shot 42 percent for the game against a Kansas State team that led the Big 12 by holding opponents to 37 percent from the floor this season. The Aggies had shot 48 percent when they beat Kansas State 79-74 Feb. 10.
Kansas State led 57-44 with 14:03 to play on a dunk by Dies, who shed Aggies center Joe White as the Wildcats passed the ball around the perimeter and Rhodes found Dies open.
A minute later, the Wildcats were
up 59-44 when they beat A&M down the court and Rhodes again found Dies open for an easy basket.
The Wildcats had taken a 49-40 lead on a 3-pointer from May with 16:27 to play and then Rhodes went to work after Dies made a free throw and Cook and Jones each made one.
Rhodes converted a three-point play to make it 53-42 and the two teams traded baskets before Rhodes hooked up with Dies on the two scores.
The Wildcats had finished the first half with an 8-2 run to lead 41-35. Dies had a basket and two free throws in the run over the last 1:34, and Groves hit four free throws as Kansas State finished the half in the bonus.
Texas Tech loses because of turnovers
The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Texas Tech turned the ball over more times than it could shoot it in the first half, and the results were predictable.
Nebraska clogged up the Tech passing lanes to force 18 turnovers, 15 of them steals, in the first half on the way to a 69-50 victory over the Red Raiders in first-round game of the Big 12 tournament. Tech got off only 17 shots in the first half.
Venson Hamilton had five of the first-half steals and scored 15 points for the Cornhuskers (19-11).
Nebraska finished with 23 steals, easily breaking the tournament record of 13 set by Texas against Missouri on March 7, 1997, and setting a new school season record. Nebraska had 319 steals to set the record last year and now has made 322 this year.
Texas Tech (13-17) ended up with 26 turnovers, breaking the tournament record of 23 set by Texas A&M in 1997. The Red Raiders made only 19 field goals in the game.
The 'Huskers converted the Tech gifts to go on a 16-3 run in the first half and advance to the second round today against third-seeded Kansas. Kansas
had a first-round bye.
Cookie Belcher, the Big 12's leading thief at 3.1 per game, had three in the first half to move past Erick Strickland on the Nebraska all-time list.
Belcher finished with four steals and has 91in his career.
Hamilton had six points in the run that turned a 9-9 tie with 13:57 to play in the first half into a 25-12 Cornhuskers lead with 4:04 remaining.
The run included a spectacular dunk by Andy Markowski on a three-on-one break after the 'Huskers trapped Stan Bonewitz along the sideline and took the ball away.
Bonewit hit a 3-pointer with 3:46 left in the half to finally end the Huskers' blitz.
Tech played a second game without injured forward Cliff Owens, but his presence would not have mattered as the Red Raiders turned the ball over during their first two possessions of the second half and trailed 42-17 with 16:02 to play on a basket by Belcher.
Louis Truscott had 12 points. Larry Florence had 11 and Belcher finished with 10 for the Huskers. Rayford Young scored 10 points to lead Texas Tech.

'Big plays' assist Texas Tech victory
The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Nebraska shut down Texas Tech's top perimeter scorer after an early hot streak. The Lady Raiders, however, had other weapons.
Angie Braziel scored 19 points and Julie Lake added 17 on last night, leading No. 9 Texas Tech to a 77-59 victory against Nebraska in the semifinals of the Big 12 tournament.
"We had some players step up and make big plays, and that's what tournament play is all about," Texas Tech coach Marsha Sharp said. "Julie hit some big jumpers for us in the second half to help us keep a double-digit lead."
The top-seeded Lady Raiders (26-3), the defending tournament champions, saw a 17-point lead cut to five late in the first half but held fifth-seeded Nebraska to just one field goal and three points in the first 8:57 of the
second.
"We had them back on their heels at the end of the first half with that run," said guard Nicole Kubik, who scored 19 points to lead Nebraska. "But that just means we need to come out in the first five minutes (of the second half) and keep doing those things, and we didn't."
Nebraska (21-11) also failed to take full advantage of technical fouls against Sharp and Braziel in the second half. The Cornhuskers converted on just two of the resulting four free throws and didn't score on either inbounds play.
Rene Hanebutt, who hit a tournament-record seven 3-pointers in Texas Tech's 74-55 victory over Kansas State on Wednesday, made her first three attempts against the Cornhuskers. But after her third, which put the Lady Raiders up 20-13 with 10:25 left in the first half, she missed her next four
attempts and finished with 13 points.
"They were defending me pretty tough," said Hanebutt, who hit seven 3-pointers and scored 33 points in a 75-62 victory at Nebraska on Feb. 21. "They made it pretty tough for me to get my hands on the basketball."
Keitha Dickerson had 10 rebounds for Texas Tech, which outboarded the Cornhuskers 41-31.
"We really went to war on rebounding, especially on the defensive end," Sharp said. "I think that's a big reason why we won."
Amanda Went added a career-high 14 points for Nebraska.
A 15-4 run, capped by five straight points from backup center Cara Gibbs, gave Texas Tech a 32-15 lead with 4:56 left in the first half. But the Lady Raiders didn't manage another field goal for the rest of the half, allowing Nebraska to cut the lead to 37-32 by the break.

But last night, Taylor, who had 11 points, and Frese were not the game-deciders, although Frese had a good all-around game, recording a game-high 21 points on 3-of-6 three-point shooting.
"She's (Francis) a quicker post player than we're used to playing against," said Nakia Sanford, who scored all of her team-high 16 points in the second half. "She
Iowa State coach Bill Fennelley said he had encouraged his role players to shoot more, and they definitely responded. Five Cyclones scored in double figures, including Tracy Gahan and Desiree Francis. Gahan hit two three-pointers en route to 14 points, twice her average, and undersized post-player Francis added 16.
came out there and played really hard and did a lot of good things for them and I don't think we responded well at all."
Mirroring her teammate Sanford, forward Jaclyn Johnson scored all of her 15 points in the second half, as Kansas attempted a second-half comeback by forcing the ball inside against its smaller opponents. The rally came up short as the Cyclones' balanced attack hit one long-distance shot after another.
The Jayhawks' fate now rests in the hands of the NCAA selection committee. They will wait until Sunday to see where they will play, and more importantly who they will face in the NCAA tournament
"We just have to regroup," Washing ton said. "Hopefully we'll have a good run in the NCAA."

MLB owners delay meeting to OK owner for Royals
The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Major League Baseball owners have postponed their March 18 meeting, a move that could leave the Kansas City Royals without an owner for much, if not all, of the 1999 season.
The Royals' designated owner, Miles Prentice, had hoped owners would use the meeting to approve his plan to purchase the team, with a large group of buyers including professional golfer Tom Watson and Kansas City millionaire R. Crosby Kemper Jr.
"The bottom line is that owners did not have a full enough agenda, and it's their prerogative to call the meeting whenever they want." Royals spokesman Mike Swenson said. "It's not a setback."
In a statement, Prentice said he was confident owners would decide on his plan as expeditiously as possible.
Royals officials were quick to downplay the significance of the meeting's postponement, saying owners have rarely approved ownership swiftly. Prentice and his group were given the green light by the team's board of directors late last year to buy the team for $75 million.
It's possible, the team said yesterday, that owners could meet in a conference call well ahead of the next planned meeting, around the All-Star break in July.
"Although approval of ownership transfers are normally conducted during scheduled meetings, telephone meetings have been utilized as well." Royals president Mike Herman said.
Prentice, a New York lawyer, has spent nearly two years pursuing ownership of the American League club.
Yesterday's announced delay further ensures the team will be handled financially for much of the season by general manager Herk Robinson.
Robinson, working under a selfimposed salary cap of about $25 million, has put together a lowpriced team that probably will feature plenty of unfamiliar faces in the opening day lineup.
Huskies clinch win at buzzer
Seton Hall team makes UConn sweat until end
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — The first time they met this season, Seton Hall bothered Connecticut for a half. The second time, the undermanned Pirates had one of the country's top teams sweating until the final minutes.
With the Big East Conference tournament quarterfinals as the setting, top-seeded and third-ranked Connecticut didn't put Seton Hall away yesterday until the buzzer.
"Three times in a row and certainly more so tonight, they did a terrific job of dictating the pace," Connecticut coach Jim Calhoun said after the Huskies beat the ninth-seeded Pirates 57-56 at Madison Square Garden. "Sometimes we don't have the choosing of which song is sung and how we're going to dance. They did a great job of frustrating us. They are very tough for us to play."
That was evident for 40 minutes this time as the Pirates used the shot clock to shorten the game and a 2-3 zone to spread the court in, scaring the Huskies (26-
"I thought our players responded well and did a lot of nice things in terms of shortening the game, how we ran our defense, how we ran our offense, making them play defense," Seton Hall coach Tommy Amaker said. "But they are so explosive and have so many weapons and they came through."
2) , the team which usually makes life miserable for others.
It was forward Kevin Freeman who came through and gave the Huskies the chance to play in today's semifinals against the winner of the Villanova-Syracuse game.
It was Freeman's tip-in of a missed 3-pointer by Richard Hamilton with 1:27 to play that gave Connecticut the lead at 51-50. His dunk after a nice pass from Khalid El-Amin with 29 seconds left made it 53-50 and gave him 22 points for the game and 1.003 points for his career.
"I saw Rip shooting from the opposite side and as a rebounder you know it's going to come off to the opposite side," Freeman said of his fifth rebound of the game and the third on the offensive end. "At first I was going to grab it and come down with it and then I felt I could get the tip-in and luckily tipped it in."
(15-14) on Jan. 23, the Huskies took control early in the second half. In the 53-48 win on Feb. 13, the closing 15-4 run wiped out the Pirates' six-point lead with 6 1/2 minutes to play. This time it wasn't Freeman's last two baskets that decided it or E-Amin and Hamilton's each making both ends of a 1-and-1 over the
final 16 seconds. Instead, it came down to a player trying to miss and he couldn't.
In the 62-47 win over Seton Hall
NCAA
Hamilton's two free throws with
two seconds left made it 57-54. Connecticut's Rashamel Jones fouled Seton Hall's Gary Saunders before the ball was inbounded, denying the Pirates the chance at a possible gametying 3-pointer.
Saunders, who finished with 18 points and six assists, made the front end of the 1-and-1. He tried to miss the second so his teammates would have a chance at converting the rebound, but the ball hit the rim and went in.
"I tried to shoot it off-balance and the ball just went in the rim," Saunders said. "I tried to shoot it short. When I want to make free throws. I miss them.
When I want to miss them, I make them."
Hamilton had 15 points on 5-for-16 shooting, including 2-for-8 from 3-point range, while El-Amin had seven points on 1-for-8 shooting but did have seven assists, including the big one to Freeman.
"Usually what happens is that big-time players make big-time plays," Calhoun said. "Some of them have a belief you're not going to lose, and after 25 wins, our kids certainly believe that." Calhoun also believes his team will be one of the four No. 1 seeds in next week's NCAA tournament, even if it had become just the third Big East top seed to lose in the quarterfinals.
"After winning 25 out of 27 basketball games and winning the Big East with two Top Ten teams like Miami and St. John's in it, I don't have any doubts that our seeding is done and was done before we stepped on the court today," he said.
For Seton Hall, the season could continue with a second straight National Invitation Tournament berth.
"We've tried to keep taking positives out of a negative out of a loss to great teams three times now. It gets old." Amaker said. "Hopefully, we have some basketball to be played."
Old Dominion wins quarterfinal game
Lady Monarchs move past James Madison and into second round
The Associated Press
RICHMOND, Va. — Even when it struggled early in its quarterfinal game of the Colonial Athletic Association tournament yesterday, Old Dominion knew it was only a matter of time before the offense would start clicking.
That time came with a few minutes left in the first half, after James Madison twice pulled ahead of the fifth-ranked Lady Monarchs.
With a quick burst to end the half and another right after the break, Old Dominion pulled away to win 73-45 for its 81st consecutive conference victory.
"You can only take so much," said Natalie Diaz, who had 14 points, five rebounds and five assists. "That's not satisfactory for us with any team, whether its the
A-team or any other team in the conference."
James Madison committed 33 turnovers, and Old Dominion had 19 steals.
"I think it's just people stepping up and making it a priority to finish a shot, or making it a priority to look into the post, or to set a good screen." Diaz said of the turnaround. "That's what's so great about our team. When things aren't going so well, we've got numerous people who have the ability, who have the desire, to step up and make something happen."
Old Dominion (24-3), coming off its fourth straight 16-0 regular season and seventh straight regular-season title, advanced to the semifinals against Virginia Commonwealth, which beat William & Mary 65-54, on Friday.
James Madison (12-20), a 58-36 winner against American in the play-in game Wednesday night, stayed close throughout a sloppy first half, but had no answer when Old Dominion's offense finally started clicking.
The Dukes also shot terribly, going 15-for-49 for 30.6 percent.
"A seven field goal half and an eight field goal half, that's awfully hard to overcome," said second-year coach Bud Childers. "Our four primary ball handlers had 21 turnovers between them. That makes it difficult."
Leading just 26-20 at the break,
Old Dominion got 3-pointers 28
seconds apart in the opening minute
from Eblin and Andrade and was
on its wav.
A 3-pointer by Mistiza Colebank and free throw by Hope Cook pushed the Dukes to 34-24, but Andrade and Eblin scored on layups off steals, Diaz hit two throws and it was 40-24 with 13:25 left—and growing.

"I think it's just people stepping up and making it a priority to finish a shot, or making it a priority to look into the post, or to set a good screen... When things aren't going so well, we've got numerous people who have the ability, who have the desire, to step up and make something happen."

Bulls defeated by Bearcats in USA game
The Associated Press
BIRMINGHAM, Ala. — Pete Mickeal tied a career high with 28 points to lead No. 7 Cincinnati to a 76-56 win against South Florida yesterday in the quarterfinals of the Conference USA tournament.
South Florida (14-14) stuck with
Cincinnati for most of the first half, but ultimately had no answer for Mickael.
Melvin Levett added 20 points for the top-seeded Bearcats (26-4), who advanced to the tournament semifinals for the fourth straight year.
The 6-foot-6 junior college transfer was 13-of-15 from the field and made all five of his shots in the second half. He also led the Bearcats with nine rebounds and five assists.
C
When Mickeal didn't take a shot over a
four minute stretch in the second half, the crowd of Cincinnati fans began chanting "Give the ball to Pete!" Mickeal answered by muscling in a layup from under the basket that gave the Bearcats a 70-54 lead with 3:27 to play.
Cincinnati trailed by six points in the first half before going on an 8-0 run to take a 20-18 lead with 10:11 left.
It was back and forth from there until Cincinnati turned up the pressure. With the Bearcats trailing 31-30 with 5:34 remaining, Mickel started a 13-2 run with a dunk. Levett added to it by scoring seven straight points, followed by another Mickel dunk, and the Bearcats had a 43-33 halftime lead.
South Florida, which shot 54 percent from the field in the first half, didn't make a basket in the final four minutes before the break. Things didn't get any better in the early minutes of the second half.
B. B. Walden hit a 3-pointer at the start of the second half to pull South Florida within 43-36, but Levett answered with his own 3-pointer.
After a jumper by Shaddrick Jenkins, South Florida missed its next 11 shots and won scoreless for almost six minutes. The Bulls shot only 32 percent in the second half, and 43 percent for the game.
While nothing would fall for the Bulls, everything was falling for Mickeal. He started another 6-0 run with two quick layups that gave the Bearcats a 52-38 lead with 13:36 to go.
Artha Reeves led South Florida with 14 points. Jenkins added 11 points and Waldon and Altron Jackson scored 10 points each.

Sport of the week
KU Rock Climbing Club reaches news heights
By Matt Tait
Kansan sportswriter
Rock climbing isn't exactly the first sport that comes to mind when people think of Kansas, but for the members of the University of Kansas' Rock Climbing Club. it is all they think about.
"On any nice weekend, somebody from the club is somewhere rock climbing," said Jason Marshall, Gardner junior.
The club, which consists of 84 members, is different than most clubs at KU. It has a president, officers and membership dues that structure its club. But unlike other clubs, the purpose of the Rock Climbing Club is in its social status.
"My boyfriend talked me in to trying it, and I got hooked because the social aspect is really cool," said Britta Ernst, Topeka junior. "It's a real community kind of thing."
Several members found the club the same way that Ernst did.
"I just walked by and saw people climbing, so I came in and tried it," said Bryan Caldwell, Gardner junior. "I'm all about not doing school work, so this kept me busy."
The club has two climbing walls in Robinson Center that can hold several members at once.
One wall stretches 22 feet off the ground and contains nearly 15 different routes that members have
Each route is marked off near the foot and hand holes by tape marks with labels. On the side of the wall each route, marked by color coated tape, is labeled and rated according to the rating system.
created.
Some of the names of the routes include: White Rabbit, Spank Your Dog, The Fool and Spank Your Spanker.
Chris Kemler, Basehor senior, said that the naming of the routes followed a trend that he started when he named the first route.
Suspended above the large wall are two bells, which are an essential part of each climb.
"I once saw a guy struggle all the way up, and then come down, but he hadn't rung the bell." Caldwell said. "I told him he had to go up and ring the bell for it to be an official climb. It took him 20 more minutes."
The other wall, much shorter but wider, serves as a warm-up wall. This is where most climbers go when they first get there. After they have put on their shoes and turned on the music, they head to the side wall and get comfortable with the grips and textures.
Despite the fact that it is only eight feet tall, people still fall off, but they fall onto mats and rarely are injured.
"It's 100 percent safe in here — we've never had an injury," Caldwell said. "We teach newcomers how to tie knots and basically how to climb, and then they
go at it."
C
The club has open recreation hours at 7 p.m. Tuesdays and Thursdays. Anyone wishing to learn how to climb or just hang out and watch is welcome to show up and give it a shot.
For those who enjoy it, they can pay the $25 membership fee and become an official member.

Along with the fee comes a T-shirt, and it contributes to trips and the annual spring party.
Kemler said that climbing the same wall for so many years had gotten a bit mundane but that there were other people around town who have climbing walls. The club also travels to real mountains to make climbs.
During the years, the club has gone to Colorado, New Mexico, Wyoming and recently returned from a competition in Missouri.
Despite the relaxed nature of the club, there are national competitions at which it can compete.
The competitions consist of timed routes of varying difficulties, in which points are scored for successful completions.
Marshall explained the rating system, which is measured in terms of verticality and difficulty. For instance a 3.12, called a three twelve, is not very vertical, but rather difficult, and a 5.7 is pretty tall, but not too tough. The
tall, but not too tough. The toughest route in the
toughest route in the world is a 5.14D, and the
world is a 5.14D, and the
toughest at Robinson is a 5.12
Wh i e competition makes it fun and exciting. Caldwell said the main reason people enjoyed
it was because of the relaxation and the closeness to nature that members experienced.
Caldwell said that the club desperately needed a new facility but that going on trips and climbing at competitions satisfied him for now.
When someone rock climbs in Kansas, he is most likely on a climbing wall, and climbing a real rock can be different. Kemler said.
"There's not always red tape on real rocks," Kemler said.
Even so, the club provides an exciting and thrilling experience for those at the University who love the thrill of the outdoors accompanied by accomplishing a goal.
"It's all about nature and relaxation," Caldwell said. "It's like having a problem to solve, and it just relaxes you."

THE STUDENT NEWSPAPER OF THE UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS
Outlook good for KU faculty salary increase
By Kristi Reimer
Kansan staff writer
The Board of Regents will lobby a conference committee to recognize the need for faculty salary raises now that House and Senate committees have taken separate stands, Director Tom Brvant said.
(USPS 650-640)
Last week the Senate Ways and Means Committee recommended adding $900,000 to Gov. Bill Graves' budget for faculty salaries. Earlier, the House Appropriations Committee advised cutting it by $1.5 million.
"We're losing outstanding faculty, which is not in the best interest of citizens of Kansas," Bryant said. "We'll keep up our efforts to work with legislators to show our need."
Bryant said students had played an important role in the salary push and hoped they would continue. University of Kansas students plan to travel to Topeka on Wednesday to lobby for several initiatives, including faculty raises.
"It's not the 7.6 percent we wanted, but it's in the right direction and it recognizes the need," he said. "We're delighted."
Provost David Shulenburger said he was pleased with the Senate Ways and Means Committee's action, which he said would bring the faculty salary increase to five percent.
However, Mike Matson, the governor's press secretary, said Graves was concerned
about spending in light of revenue shortfalls last year.
"We just want lawmakers to keep a very close watch on the bottom line," Matson said.
The Regents and University of Kansas have said that average faculty salaries at public universities in the state, which lag behind those nationwide, are causing instructors to leave for higher-paying jobs and preventing new faculty from accepting jobs.
Early in the year, Graves recommended raising salaries by 3.5 percent and proposed a $2.5 million pool to be used to retain meritorious faculty. The Senate will consider increasing the merit fund to $3.4 million and the House will consider cutting it to $1 million when the full bodies vote.
Representatives' recommendations to decrease the amount stemmed from a review of statistics showing that faculty turnover was only 3 percent and their belief that the situation was not as bad as the Regents had led them to believe.
But senators said the Regents had demonstrated specifically that faculty were leaving for higher-paying jobs and taking grant money with them.

'Monicas' still victims of Lewinsky scandal
Bv Dan Curry

When the Monica Lewinsky matter has faded from memory, Monicas everywhere will breath a sigh of relief.
For the time being, though, Monica Lewinsky has hilacked the name.
"I've gotten quite a lot of messages on the answering machine pretending to be Bill," said Monica Akyl, Chicago freshman. "Most of them are my friends but a few are random callers."
Akyol said that since Lewinsky entered the limelight, the name they share has become the object of wit in others.
For Monica Lynn Cardin, Omaha, Neb., sophomore, the gibes got old fast.
"I'll beat them to the punch line," Akyol said. "I'll introduce myself as 'Monica, not Lewinsky.'"
"It really doesn't,it really bother me." Akvol said. "It blow over."
until then, Akyol said she has developed a sound method to deflate forthcoming fun at her expense.
Though the side comments bother her, Cardin said she could empathize with Lewinsky.
"My father calls me Monica 'Lynn-ski." Cardin said.
"I get teased a lot," Cardin said. "It almost makes me feel sorry for her."
But the most sympathy should perhaps go to the name "Monica." For many people—it invokes Saint Monica, patron saint of patience, who prayed on her knees every night for 30 years for her son's conversion to Catholicism.
RANKING THE NAMES
Four names in the news have gotten more exposure, but that doesn't make them more popular. According to the Office of the Chief Acquary, Social Security Administration Web site, www.sgsa.gov/OACT/, some names are being used less often.
The name Chelsea or Chelsey ranked No.
55 in 1996, No. 162 in 1997 and No.
341 in 1998.
The name Monica ranked No. 69 in 1996, No. 73 in 1997 and No. 97 in 1998.
The name William ranked No. 21 in 1996,
No. 22 in 1997 and No. 13 in 1998
In 1996, the rankings for the name Hillary weren't available, but it ranked No. 389 in 1997 and No. 792 in 1998.
The name, which also means "advisor," has plummeted in the popularity charts.
According to Social Security Administration statistics, the name "Monica" ranked 73rd on the list of names for newborn girls in 1997. By the end of 1998, the name had dropped to 97th.
"I'm sure for the rest of my life I'll get a crack or two," said Akyl.

Search saves former KU professor
Herpetologist's condition is fair after spending night injured in ravine
By Katie Burford kburford@kansas.com
Kansan staff writer
Henry Fitch was two hours late returning from his expedition to tag trees at the University of Kansas' Fitch Natural History Reserve when his wife called authorities to report him missing at 7 p.m. Friday, said Stg. Blake McCall of the Douglas County Sheriff's Department.
Fitch was in critical condition when a helicopter transported him to KU Medical Center, said Brian Lawrence, medical battalion chief with the Lawrence Douglas County Fire and Medical Department.
Lawrence said Fitch, who had been in the ravine for more than 15 hours, was conscious but had a leg injury and was weak from the exposure to near-freezing night-time temperatures.
A massive search, which involved local and neighboring counties' agencies, ensured, but it was not until about 8:30 a.m. Saturday that 198-year-old Fitch, professor emeritus of ecology and evolutionary biology, was found in the ravine where he had fallen, McCall said.
By yesterday, Fitch's condition had been upgraded to fair and his son, Chet, said he was alert and watching the KU basketball game in his hospital room.
His son said that Fitch had to have some stitches, but that no bones were broken.
Chet Fitch, who had gone out to look for his father, got lost in the dense foliage of the woods.
Luckily, Chet had a cellular phone and was able to talk to three deputy sheriffs who blared their sirens to guide him back to safety, McCall said.
"We decided we were going to need a lot more help." McCall said.
A helicopter with heat-seeking equipment was sent from Topeka, and dogs from several canine units were brought in to aid the search for Fitch.
Officers from the KU Public Safety Office helped coordinate the rescue effort, which continued until 4:30 a.m. The decision was made to halt the effort until daybreak because of the treacherous terrain. McCall said.
By 7 a.m. nearly 100 people were divided into search teams, which fanned out across the square mile of land and traversed the property from west to east. They were almost to the eastern border when I fleh was spotted in the ravine.
He told police he had heard the sirens and dogs throughout the night but had been too weak to respond.
1948-1957
Fitch and his wife live on the reserve. He has been with the University since 1948 and retired from his faculty position in 1981.
Fitch: Was to weak to respond to noise of searchers.
William E. Duellman, professor emeritus of ecology and evolutionary biology, said that Fitch, a herpetologist, was responsible for making the reserve the best-known square mile in the country. For decades, Fitch has marked and tracked thousands of snakes on the reserve, including poisonous copperheads. Duellman said.
Fitch recently published a book, "A Kansas Snake Community: Composition and Change Over 50 Years," about his research on the reserve.

Chet said the family wanted to express their gratitude to everyone involved in the search for their help in saving Fitch's life.
Yellow bike plan aims to pave way for clean air

Bright-yellow bicycles could soon be leaning on the bike racks scattered around the KU campus for any student to use.
"Matt Dunbar is the coordinator of the program, and he got the Department of Student Housing to donate abandoned bikes for the project," said Bridgett Chapin, Lawrence senior and member of KU Environs. "They were very, very generous."
Members of KU Environs are volunteering their time and effort to begin a program that would offer the use of free bikes for KU students, and eventually the Lawrence community. By encouraging the use of the bikes, the group hopes to improve air quality.
Chapin said the group also had received bicycles from other individuals, but that more still were needed. She said they had collected 40 to 50 bikes.
Yellow Bike Program
The bicycles donated by the hous ing department had been left by former residents of the scholarship halls, residence hall or the Stouffor Place Apartments, said K i p Grosshans, associate director of student housing.

KU Environs hope to begin a free bike program on campus and actively in Lawrence.
- Students can borrow a bike to go to class, but must park it for our students when finished.
Bright yellow bikes will be parked at various KU bike racks for any student to use.

Enirons asked department officials if they could have the bikes, and the department agreed.
"This was a great idea, and we wanted to help them get this off the ground," Grosshans said.
Chapin said that because Environs had some bicycles that needed to be repaired, the program also needed volunteers with some mechanical skills who could fix them.
Although KU Environs hopes to start the yellow bike program on campus, members also plan to offer the free service around Lawrence, Chapin said. She said she hoped the bikes also would lean on racks downtown.
The program is not ready to begin, but Enviroms members are making progress, Chapin said. The group still needs more volunteers, bikes and time.
"We have bikes and we're working on them," she said. "We have a plan, but no consensus yet on when or where exactly it'll happen."
Matt Dunbar, KU Environs president, said that although the program was not completely on hold, it was making slow progress. He also said he had not discussed the project with University administrators.
"As of this moment, today, the project isn't going anywhere." Dunbar said.
He said his commitments as a Student Senator, Environs president and full-time student made it difficult for him to find the time to work on the bikes.
However, members of the group do ge

Officials end search for drowned refugees
MIAMI — The Coast Guard called off its search yesterday for up to 40 Haitians who apparently drowned while trying to sneak into the country in what is described as the deadliest smugglings attempt ever off the South Florida coast.
"At this point they are presumed dead," Lt. John Pierce said. "We searched right up until midnight without results."
Two boats loaded with refugees sank Saturday in the early morning hours. Crew members on a passing freighter reported hearing screams from the water about 30 miles east of West Palm Beach.
Rescuers found only three survivors. A Coast Guard cutter recovered the bodies of two men, and crew members saw two other men's bodies sink below the surface.
The Coast Guard was not sure of the exact number of people missing. U.S. Border Patrol Senior Patrol Agent William Brett told the Sun-Sentinel of Fort Lauderdale that interviews with survivors led him to believe there were 43 people in all—16 men and two women on one boat and 20 men and five women on the second boat.
Lack of aid mars Clinton's Central America tour
WASHINGTON — Hamstrup by domestic politics, President Clinton will venture empty-handed into hurricane-clobbered reaches of Central America this week. His message of solidarity with America's neighbors is aimed as much at Congress as at the people rebuilding the region's roads, homes and schools.
Clinton will embark today on what is intended to be a four-day goodwill tour of reconstruction projects in Nicaragua, El Salvador, Guatemala and Honduras — the nations hardest hit by last fall's Hurricane Mitch.
But the president leaves at home nearly $1 billion in U.S. aid trapped on Capitol Hill by unrelated, partisan disputes over spending. Most likely, he will encounter the disappointment of Central Americans who fault his trade policy as halfhearted.
Clinton will address the Salvadoran legislative assembly Wednesday. He will stand with disaster victims in a schoolyard in Posotega, Nicaragua, where mudslides wiped out entire villages, and lend support to U.S. troops pitching in on the reconstruction.
Mitch and its subsequent flooding and mudslides killed more than 9,000 people, left thousands more homeless and caused between $7 billion and $10 billion in damage to the region's infrastructure.
Donna Shalala foils robbery at D.C. bank
WASHINGTON — Health and Human Services Secretary Donna Shalala fended off an attempted robbery at a bank cash machine Sunday and provided police with information that led to three arrests.
Shalala, 58. was not hurt.
The incident occurred about 7:15 a.m. after she had withdrawn money from an ATM near her home in the Georgetown section of town and was walking back to her car, said Lt. Pat Burke of the District of Columbia Police
A man tried to grab Shalala's wallet, telling her, "give it up, give it up," Burke said.
"Ms. Shalala falls to the ground, curls into a fetal position and screams her lungs out." Burke said.
When a witness approached, the man and a woman standing nearby jumped into their car, joining a second woman already behind the wheel. The three then drove off.
Shalala noted the license plate and called police, who arrived quickly. Burke said.
Police apprehended the trio after witnesses reported seeing three people fleeing a car in another part of Georgetown.

Lebanese group fears raids will scare tourists
BAALBEK, Lebanon — When Israeli warplanes thundered over this eastern Lebanese town last week and blasted a base belonging to the Shiite Muslim group Hezbollah, its guerrillas swiftly sealed off the area and began clearing away the rubble.
But Hezbollah also engaged in a different, far unlikelier form of damage control: expressing hopes that such raids would not scare away the tourists who come to Baalbek to see its spectacular Roman ruins.
Hezbollah's welcoming attitude toward foreign visitors is an odd turnabout for a group whose Islamic militants were linked — despite its strenuous denials — to notorious attacks such as the 1982 suicide truck-bombing of the U.S. Marine Corps barracks in Beirut and kidnappings in the 1980s of dozens of foreigners, some of whom were held in Baalbek.
It's all part of a plunge into the Lebanese mainstream for Hezbollah, which in recent years has become a formidable political force, fielding candidates in local and parliamentary elections, operating its own radio and TV stations, running a social-services network, even backing a soccer team.
Baalbek, a market city of about 150,000 people set among vineyards and almond orchards in eastern Lebanon's Bekaa Valley, is Hezbollah's hometown — the place where the Iranian-inspired Party of God militia
Kosovo leaders pledge to sign pact on Sunday
was founded 17 years ago.
PRISTINA, Yugoslavia — Ethnic Albanian rebel commanders met Sunday to consider the peace plan for Kosovo, but — contrary to Clinton administration declarations — it appeared the deal would not be signed until later in the week.
As promised, leaders of the Kosovo Liberation Army gathered in the hills of the Drenica region, the nerve center of the rebel movement, to vote on a plan for broad autonomy but not the independence for which they have fought.
Representatives of William Walker, the U.S. chief of international monitors in Kosovo, attended the rebel meeting held at an undisclosed location, an American source said.
The source said that rebels were expected to approve the deal, and that they and ethnic Albanian politicians would likely sign around March 12.
Former Sen, Bob Dole, who visited the region at President Clinton's request, declared Saturday that the ethnic Albanians "promised" to sign the deal Sunday.
Classic, cult film director Stanley Kubrick dies at 70
LONDON — Stanley Kubrick, the director of 2001: A Space Odyssey and A Clockwork Orange, whose films often puzzled and shocked audiences only to end up as classics, died Sunday at his home in England, his family said. He was 70.
Police were summoned to Kubrick's rural home north of London yesterday afternoon, authorities in Hertfordshire said, where he was certified dead.
"There are no suspicious circumstances." police said.
Malcolm McDowell, who starred in A Clockwork Orange, issued a statement through his publicist calling Kubrick "a heavyweight of my life."
"He was the last great director of that era. He was the big daddy," said McDowell.
Kubrick's latest film, Eyes Wide Shut,
still is slated for release on July 16.
Warner Bros. said Sunday.
Director Steven Spielberg issued a statement describing Kubrick as a "grand master of filmmaking."
in an interview with Playboy magazine, Kubrick said he had "tried to create a visual experience, one that bypasses verbalized pigeonholling and directly penetrates the subconscious with an emotional and philosophic content ... just as music does. ... You're free to speculate as you wish about the philosophical and allegorical meaning."
"He created more than just movies. He gave us complete environmental experiences," Spielberg said.

together on the weekends to work on the project.
"Volunteers are wanted, needed and would be greatly appreciated." Dunbar said.
Dunbar said a program in the early '80s and one a few years ago did not last very long.
Although the yellow bike program is slow getting started, other free bike programs have been offered at the University in the past.
"We're going slow on this because we want to do it right," Dunbar said. "We want to make sure this is built to last."
He said the other programs failed because students graduated and there had not been enough long-term planning.
Environs members would like to see the project unveiled around campus in time for Earth Day, which is April 22. Dunbar said he would be happy if it began before the end of the semester.
Andrea Repinsky, Environs member, said the group already had considered that some people might want to steal some of the bikes.
"They're not going to be really fancy bikes," said Repinsky, Isle Royale, Mich., senior. "Their condition will vary. Also, they'll be bright, glowing yellow — even the spokes on the wheels will be yellow, in case people try to steal the wheels."
She said Environs was spending some of its organizational budget fixing the bikes, which will not translate into costs for students.
"It won't cost anybody anything to ride the bikes, because that's the whole point of the program," she said.

Event participants to roll up their sleeves for Red Cross service
Charity issues 'unusual' dare
By T.J. Johnson
johnson@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
If you buy groceries tomorrow at Hy-Vee, 3504 Clinton Parkway, and think your sacker seems a little familiar, you're right: it might be Kansas men's basketball coach Roy Williams. And could that be Chancellor Robert Hemenway and Athletics Director Bob Frederick selling lemonade in front of Strong Hall?
Famous and not-so-famous people in Lawrence will be doing embarrassing or unusual things for money this week to raise money and awareness for the Douglas County Red Cross.
"The Red Cross Challenge," which runs from today to March 19, will dare people to do something out of the ordinary to let others know about the services and needs of the Red Cross.
"Most campaign events are built to raise money, but this one is different because we are trying to raise awareness," she said. "This brings a lot of awareness for the cause we are working for."
Betsy Farley of the Douglas County Red Cross said the challenge was more about promoting the Red Cross than raising funds for the organization.
Farley said the Red Cross provided many services to the community, including first aid, cardiopulmonary resuscitation and lifeguard classes as well as disaster services. Farley said the charity relied on volunteer help.
"We need to have enough people to be able to handle any situation," she said. "When a disaster strikes, it is already too late."
The campaign was begun by the Douglas County Red Cross as a fun way to get people involved in the organization and to make them aware of these services.
Farley said many people were unaware that the Red Cross was a charity, not a government organization. As a charity, the Red Cross does not receive federal funding
and relies on community support.
About 25 people are participating in the campaign so far, including many prominent KU figures, said Farley. She said the Red Cross still was hoping to have more people volunteer to do something unusual to help the campaign.
Ideas for unusual or interesting things include: wearing a costume to work, saying "I love you" to everyone you meet for one day, wearing a bathing suit to lunch and kissing for an hour in public.
"Its a fun way to raise money for a good cause," Sutherland said.
Todd Sutherland, president of University National Bank, is one of the people who decided to take the challenge and do something unusual to help out the Red Cross. He will be shining shoes in the bank lobby, 1400 Kasold Drive, on Thursday.
Sutherland said he felt the challenge was a good way for people to get involved in helping others.
Farley said anyone who was interested in volunteering could visit the Red Cross Challenge's information booth in Milton's Coffee and Wine, 920 Massachusetts St.

Adam Mersmann pours coffee for a living. Steve Lacoss waits tables. Neither KU student said he considered his job to be embarrassing or unusual.
But the Douglas County Red Cross hopes people will chuckle when KU football coach Terry Allen and former KU football All-American John Hadl put on aprons and pick up a thermos March 18 at Milton's Coffee & Wine, 920 Massachusetts.
Allen and Hadl will take part in the Red Cross Challenge, a fundraising drive that places well-known community members in embarrassing circumstances in the name of fun and funding, said Betsy Farley, co-chair of the challenge.
Schools, companies, groups and families are invited to participate.
Farley said people can stop by Milton's until March 18 to make donations or to sign up to participate in an embarrassing or unusual event.
Chancellor Robert Hemenway and Athletic Director Bob Frederick will serve lemonade in front of Strong Hall March 15. Men's basketball coach Roy Williams will bag groceries at Hy-Hee, 3504 Clinton Parkway, tomorrow.
Besides Allen and Hadl, other notable KU figures also have jumped on the bandwagon for the Red Cross.
Not everyone, though, agrees that these are unusual or embarrassing
events.
"If they want to do something embarrassing, go out and be embarrassing," Lacoss said, in between clearing tables and seating customers at Milton's.
Mersmann, shooting steam into a metal pitcher of milk, also saw nothing inherently unusual or embarrassing about serving coffee.
"If [Allen] doesn't know what he's doing, it probably will be because he'll have to stand there with some one telling him what to do like he's a 2-year-old." Mersmann said.
Allen, who said he waited tables to pay for college, agreed with Mersmann.
"I think what's funny about it is
how out-of-place we'll be," Allen said. "I'll probably screw some things up."
Farley said many of the job-related stunts were unusual rather than embarrassing, and the Red Cross Challenge did not wish to demean any occupation.
She said the humor would be in seeing people out of their typical element.
"It would be like a Milton's waiter coaching a football team for a day," Farley said.
Lacoss said he was not bothered by the Red Cross's drive.
"I'd be insulted if I didn't know it was for a good cause," he said.

KU change machines necessary for students, visitors lacking IDs
One result of the University's contract with Coca-Cola was felt by residents of the Stouffer Place Apartments. A change machine, leased by Coke to Treat America, the vending service of non-beverage items to the University, was removed.
Although it may not have been recognized, some residents, for various reasons, relied on the machines to use laundry facilities in the apartments. The machines should be replaced as soon as possible for the convenience of the residents.

The increased use of KUIDs as debit cards does not entirely eliminate the need for change machines. Some residents at Stouffer Place
are international students or their spouses. Because they may not have drivers licenses and because cultural restrictions prevent some women from handling finances the change machine was essential to those who had no other access to money. Also, visitors to the University who do not have KUIDs may need the change machines for vending services.
Some residents at Stouffer Place
if the University of Kansas plans on failing to replace change machines, it needs to take other measures to ensure that those without KUIDs are not inconvenienced.

Pre-trial statements damage credibility
This is in response to the University Daily Kansan's front page article Wednesday about a sex and race discrimination civil lawsuit being brought by Cynthia Annett and Ray Pierotti against the University of Kansas and the chair of the Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology. We feel that the allegations made by our colleagues in this department represent important and potentially very diverse issues for not only the University of Kansas but also for the culturally and ethnically diverse Lawrence community.
As such, we are disturbed by the
willingness of Annett and Pierotti to broadcast their accusations to the local news media (there was also an article in Tuesday's Lawrence Journal World) prior to the civil trial, which they have requested, where all the facts can be viewed and the defendants can be heard. The KU defendants have wisely and sensitively chosen not to argue this case in the public arena before the trial.
We question the ethics and the wisdom of the complainants in making public charges and accusations without a fair trial to determine what the true facts are in this case. At best, this type of one-sided trial in the court of public opinion is sure to damage relations within
the University and our community no matter what the outcome of the trial. At worst, in the event that the defendants are found not guilty, Annett and Pierotti will have damaged the credibility of the very social groups they claim to represent.
In order to mitigate any damage that premature public airing of this issue may cause, we ask that everyone please reserve judgment about this case until after the civil trial has ended.

Club burned down, I would say there are at least a couple hundred more seasoned channel surfers on campus
I am not saying that channel-surfing is not exercise. Believe me, I know how challenging those practices can be. I am saying that perhaps there is a better solution to this thigh-fully tragic turn of events.
There is a little-known secret on campus known as KU Fit. It is an aerobics program offered by KU
Jamie Patterson

recreation services. KU Fit offers 30 different aerobics classes, free personal training to members and membership for only $60 a semester.
There are 25 instructors who teach everything from water aerobics to funk to early morning body sculpting.
Most of the instructors are certified and arguably some of the best in Lawrence.
It seems that KU Fit is the perfect alternative to waiting for your club to reopen.
Between now and May, you too could be sliding, boxing, stepping, crunching, sculpting, training, pumping, blasting, jogging, hip-hopping, conditioning, aerobicizing or yoga-ing your way to good health.
Recreation services even offer an aerobics instructor training program that produced four certified instructors last semester alone. This training program is unique to KU and one of the few you can find at any university nationwide.
KU Fit is a wonderful program, but there are hundreds of students whose athletics clubs are still standing. They are sweating their way to strong hearts away from University-financed programs.
Why do all of the other students, who have private memberships to other clubs, choose to bypass KU Fit?
Why did all the newly initiated couch potatoes spend hundreds of dollars to join a private club?
Simple — Robinson Gymnasium isn't up to par.
KU Fit is run by the same recreation services that deserves a piece of the action when it comes to construction on campus.
The qualified instructors at KU Fit are one of the few things that are right about Robinson.
The equipment is not first-rate.
The weight room is not adequate to serve a university with thousands of students. It also is used by our athletics department, which limits the time that average students can use the equipment.
Private clubs offer better equipment and convenient hours to their members.
This is one battle that the University is losing.
Although there are some plans on the drawing board, the chancellor has not endorsed any of the suggestions.
One likely plan could be an increase in current tuition to help draw money needed for the improvements.
Needless to say, most students enrolled now will not reap the benefits of this proposed increase in tuition. Because of this fact, many students do not consider a lack of a quality recreation center to be a big concern. Rather than being outraged by the minimal services offered, it is much easier for them to pay the extra money and join a private club.
This is not just a battle between KU Fit membership and private athletic club membership. A new recreation center is one of the components that will make this University more competitive.
We need a new recreation center. Period.
We need a new recreation center. Period. One look at K-State's centers would convince you of this.
Students should not have to look outside of the University to find adequate recreation centers.
The people at KU Fit are willing to make an effort so that the Jayhawks that follow us will have a better place to exercise.
Despite the fact that many of us will not enjoy a new recreation center, we should support the effort to better this part of our University that is in dire need of improvement.
Between now and a new center, the excellence of programs produced by recreation services can only be furthered with students' support.

Soda presence obstructs enjoyment of family play
I am aware that contracts binding Coca-Cola and the University of Kansas exist in one fashion or another and that there is some controversy surrounding the topic.
In a theatrical performance, however, it's disressing to see the Coke logo appear in what is meant to be an artistic endeavor.
Fortunately, I'm open-minded enough to look at both sides of the issue objectively, and I can understand and somewhat empatize with both sides' positions.
Aaron
Crim
Guest columnist
On one hand, there is the state of Kansas and its major learning institution, the University of
Kansas. Both are in the business of generating revenue so that their citizens might enjoy a comfortable lifestyle.
Obviously, Coca-Cola generates much more profit each year than the state government, so it stands to reason that the University might seek the financial help of its economic superior.
On the other hand, there are those who would argue that the institution of learning is a sacred one. They consider advertising to be a nuisance when instructors have to compete with corporations for their students' attention.
However, I must admit that I was absolutely floored to see the Coca-Cola logo and name appear in the scenery and dialogue of the KU Theatre for Young People's recent production in Murphy Hall of Ramona Quimby by Len Jenkin and based on the books by Beverly Cleary.
Those who attended the play will recall that it takes place during the Quimby family's outing to the local Whopperburger, a fictitious restaurant that apparently sells very large burgers and, well, Coke.
Ramona's father decides to take the family out to eat in order to avert the problems that plague the family. His plan works, and it even proves to be the one event that brings about the end of the family's problems.
Although this works to the benefit of the Quimbys' relations and the inner workings of the plot, it left me wondering: Why was there so much emphasis on the name Coke. And just how far have Coca-Cola and the University of Kansas come in their search for economic bliss?
Now convenient was it that the Coke name and visual logo appeared in the play? After all, it happened to be the only copyrighted name to appear anywhere in the performance. In fact, the principal decision makers actually made it a point to use the fictitious name Whopperburger for the restaurant itself. For some odd reason, they couldn't seem to exert enough creative force to replace the proper noun "Coke" with a noun such as soda.
The script actually went to the extent of having each family member, in a suspiciously audible crescendo, yell out the word "Coke" as they gave orders to the waitress. For example, Ramona Quimby exuberantly cries out, "I'll have a double Whopperburger and a Coke!"
That is exactly what the waitress returns with a few moments later — four large burgers and four large Cokes. None of the hamburger wrappers appeared to have any brand names on them, and no brand names appeared anywhere else in sight.
But luckily for the Quimbys, the prop room was chock-full of bright red cups that bore the name Coca-Cola on the side.
Whether all of this came about because of negotiations between the University and Coca-Cola only can be speculative, but one thing is perfectly clear: This type of propaganda had no place in this particular production. Aesthetically speaking, the red cups stuck out like a neon jacket in the forest.
Could it be that, in the name of profit, allowances were made so that the fictitious world could merge happily with the non-fictitious world through the magic medium of advertising?
That idea was only dwarfed by the fact that this play was geared toward children, who probably didn't even have 85 cents to feed the vending machine in the first place.
One could argue that this is no big deal based on the idea that the word Coke is practically a synonym for the word soda. Although this may sound true enough, the fact remains that this all comes about amidst radical economic trend changes on campus.
Students will recall that almost overnight we were purged of the Pepsi nemesis. Besides, if you think the word Coke is a synonym for the word soda, I beg you to consider how ridiculous it might sound if you imagine a billboard that reads, "Always the Real Thing, Always Soda."
There are few — very few — places left on Earth where one can escape the daily onslaught of the giant advertisers. The dramatic stage is one of them. I'll be damned if I'm going to pay the price of a ticket to see a live commercial that instructs me to go out and spend more money after the play is finished. If I want that, I'll go to the movies.

Group to pass out whistles to raise awareness, help
By T.J. Johnson
fjohnson@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
Members of the student organization Working Against Violence Everywhere, or WAVE, will be passing out yellow safety whistles in front of Wescoe Hall and in the Kansas Union this week.
The whistles will be used to help raise awareness of violence and to alert others if a student is in trouble.
About 9,000 whistles will be handed out with an attached piece of paper that reads: "When the whistle blows, the campus knows. For Emergency Use Only."
Karen Isley, Toledo, Ohio, senior and co-president of WAVE, said the group had about 40 members who had
joined since it was formed last semester.
was former last semester. The idea for the organization came to Isley while she was in high school. A girl in her hometown was murdered while walking to her car.
"It really hit home to me," Isley said. "It was really awakening."
She helped form Working Against Violence Everywhere, which led to whistle distribution programs around the world to help raise awareness and protect women.
Isley said that after she heard about other incidents of violence on college campuses, she and 14 people started WAVE as a way to include men and women in the fight against violence. She said the inclusion of men has added to the group's strength.
"It's much better and stronger," she said. "It's not just a women's issue."
Kendall Day, St. Francis senior, agreed with Isley. He
WAVE
Who: Working Against Violence
Everywhere
What: WAVE members will be distributing yellow safety whistles to students to use in emergency situations
- When and Where: From 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. March 8-12 in front of Wescoe Hall, and March 9-11 at the Kansas Union lobby
"I'm just really excited about WAVE because it is an organization that can bring men and women together."
**Why:** To increase KU students' awareness about campus violence and to protect students
said one of the best aspects about WAVE was that, unlike many anti-violence groups, WAVE worked to include men.
"I'm just really excited about WAVE because it is an organization that can bring men and women together," Day said.
He also said the group could accomplish things that other
Kendall Day St. Francis senior
groups, such as Student Senate, might not be able to do.
"Given our status, we can apply for grants and hopefully get something done that might get bogged down in the political
process," Day said.
The whistle distribution plan is an example of that power. A grant from Coca-Cola allowed WAVE to purchase and distribute the whistles to students.
Isley said that she hoped the campaign would be effective, and that students would take the whistle idea seriously.
"I just hope that everybody takes advantage of it and that people don't blow the whistles if it is not an emergency," Isley said.
WAVE has meetings every other week,but the meeting times can vary.
Anyone who is interested in attending the meetings or joining WAVE can e-mail the group at wave@eagle.cc.ukans.edu

Greeks to give to 'Rockin' Ron' fund
Memorial established for his sons' education
By Jamie Knodel
jknode@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
One KU senior is attempting to collect $2,000 to donate to a popular bus driver's memorial fund.
Tim Nadon, Overland Park senior, is trying to organize the University's greek chapters to contribute to Ron "Rockin' Ron" Gleason's memorial fund.
Gleason died from a heart attack Feb. 27. He had been a driver with Lawrence Bus Company for 12 years and was known on campus for the loud rock 'n' roll music he played in his bus.
"Ron was a popular guy," Nadon said. "He is a legend at this University."
Nadon, who is a member of the Phi Kappa Theta fraternity, said
that after contacting the greek chapters, his idea had been greeted with positive responses, and that no one had turned him down or rejected the idea.
Some students who rode Gleason's bus said that because they knew the driver and his family they wanted to give to the memorial fund. The memorial would help Gleason's two sons, Raymond, 8, and Ron, 14.
Gleason's family said the memorial fund was established to help pay for his children's education.
Andy Laws, Lambda Chi Alpha fraternity member and Overland Park senior, said Gleason's sons had come to the chapter's house and played pool, so he felt that he knew them.
"His kids are really young." he said. "Donating was the right thing to do."
That route also serves Stewart Ave., which is home to several greek chapter houses.
Gleason drove the Naismith/Oliver campus route.
Gleason got to know his pas-

Epsilon fraternity member and Oakley junior,
said he had

"He was known for driving on our street," he said. "He knew us by our first names."
ridden Gleason's bus for the last three years.
wadon said he was targeting greek houses on Stewart Ave. to donate to the fund, but that he
encouraged all chapters to contribute because Gleason often drove greek-chartered buses.
Nadon said he expected donations to come in one of two forms
a check from the house's account or money donated from individual members.
He said he expected some chapters to contribute on both levels, which would increase the greek community contribution.
It would be great if houses decide to do both," he said. "I know our chapter is planning to do both."
Contributions to the Ronald E. Gleason Memorial fund can be sent in care of Warren-McElwain Mortuary, 120 W. 13th St., Lawrence, Kan. 66044.
Gleason family friend Nicolette Proudfoot said Gleason's friends also had established a memorial fund. She said contributions could be sent to the Ronald Gleason Memorial fund, 821 New Jersey St., Lawrence, Kan. 66044.

Festival celebrates Asian cultures
Bv Dan Currv

decurry@kansan.com
Kansan staff worker
Origami swans dangled around the Kansas Union Ballroom and Chinese lanterns were suspended from long lines as a woman in an emerald Indian sari gracefully stepped through the 500-person crowd that thronged the aisles at Saturday's Taste of Asia celebration.
The event attracted Asian-American students from many countries, as well as some curious onlookers, who gathered to express and witness the multiple forms of Asian culture present at the University of Kansas.
"The purpose is to get KU as a community to appreciate the Asian community." Ko said.
In its second year, the event drew twice as many people as last year, said Glen Kao, Salina sophomore.
During the cultural display portion of the night, Mohammed Faraz Matin, Pakistan sophomore and social chairman of the Pakistan Cultural Club, stood in the corner of the ball room in the traditional dress of Pakistan — a wool vest called a Koti, a light tunic called a Shalvarkameez, and on each foot a hooked, silver and gold shoe called a khussa.
The event included Asian cuisine, cultural presentations, a traditional and modern fashion show, songs and a dance party featuring Asian-American dance music diva Jocelyn Enriquez.
He demonstrated the use of his grandfather's 65-year-old hookah — a smoking device — that is made of copper.
He said people laid down in a circle on pillows and placed the hookah in the center.
"It's like for centuries people have been using the same materials and format to smoke tobacco," Matin said.
The Pakistan contingent's presence at the celebrations was an expression of the purpose of the whole event, said Hubert Chen, external vice-president of the Asian-American Student Union, which organized the event.
"This whole event will meet up with our agenda which is to unite all the Asian-American groups into the Asian Action Alliance." Chen said.
Chen said that eight organizations of Asian-American students had pooled their talents to make this year's celebration a success.
Attendance was so high that they ran out of food early, Chen said. The people who did not get to eat and did not want to attend the other events received a refund of the

Voting problems affect city primary; outcome unchanged
By Heather Woodward and Chris Hapkins
hwoodward@kansan.com
chopkins@kansan.com
Kansan staff writers
When voters went to the ballot box at last Tuesday's Lawrence City Commission primary, they were only supposed to vote for three candidates.
At least 30 people voted for more than the allowed three, causing their votes to be thrown out.
"The scanner automatically throws out ballots that have more than three candidates marked," said Patty Jaimes, Douglas County clerk. "We can try to determine the intent of the voter, but if they've voted for more than three candidates, then we can't."
The final totals for the March 2 primary were released Friday, but there was no change in the ranking of the candidates. The Douglas County Commission canvasses after every election to make sure there are no errors in tallying the totals. Its canvass raised the total votes cast by 131.
Jaimes said the totals shift because some votes were thrown out by the county commissioners.
"Anytime someone moves they are supposed to re-register. But people get busy, and they forget." Jaimes said.
Instructions at the top of each ballot explained that the voter should vote for only three candidates.
B. J. Spencer, Lawrence resident who voted in the primary, said there should not have been any confusion.
"I thought it was very concise," she said. "Vote for three." If you can understand that, you're OK."
Jaimes said it was more common for people to misunderstand.
PRIMARY ELECTION RESULTS
Brenda McFadden 2,926
Jim Henry 2,809
Mike Rundle 2,454
David Dunfield 2,393
Denise Gibson 2,162
O. Scott Henderson 1,231
G. Wayne Pears 7,41
Paul Matthew Bryant 582
David McKinsey 177
Total votes: 1,5,475
stand these instructions in city commission and school board elections.
"I think when people hear that the election will narrow the number of candidates to six, they don't understand that they are basically nominating six to elect three." Jaimes said.
After the final primary tallies, none of the six primary election winners are ahead by a margin of less than 30 votes.
The closest totals are between Mike Rundle and David Dunfield, with Rundle leading by 61 votes. That brings Dunfield six votes closer to third place.
Dunfield said that the tight race would not alter his campaign strategy, but that he would work on getting more voters to the polls.
"Obviously it was a real low-turnout election," he said.
Mike Rundle also wanted to see more voters voting.
"With better turnout, I think I'll either stay or move up," he said.
Rundle said that he would not change his campaign strategy because of Dunfield, and that he did not think of him as a threat.
"I'm running against Jim Henry and Brenda McFadden. I don't consider myself to be running against David Dunfield," he said.

Events to promote weather awareness
By Jennifer Roush
jroush @kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
Peak tornado season has not arrived yet, but meteorologists at the National Weather Service in Topeka want to teach Kansas residents what to do when it does.
The National Weather Service, in partnership with the Kansas Division of Emergency Management, has designated the week of March 8-12 Severe Weather Awareness Week. This is the 26th year that the service has conducted the awareness campaign.
Each day of the week will spotlight a different form of severe weather and what people can do to protect themselves from it.
Monday's topic is flooding, Tuesday is tornadoes, Wednesday is lightning, Thursday is non-tornadic winds and Friday will focus on severe weather information sources in Kansas.
Mike Akulow, National Weather Service meteorologist, said the campaign was designed to make people aware of the changing seasons and to prevent deaths and injuries caused by severe weather.
The prime months for tornadoes in Kansas are April, May and June, he said. However, tornadoes have occurred as early as March and as late as October.
"The chances are pretty small that the University would be hit, but it is possible," Akulow said. "It's a good idea to be prepared. It could be a big disaster with all those people."
He said the two best methods of staying safe from tornadoes were to watch the sky and listen to weather reports from local television or radio stations.
At 10 a.m. and 6:26 p.m. Tuesday, the National Weather Service will conduct tornado safety drills across the state, Akulow said.
He said information about the drills would be given to television and radio stations and newspapers. Media outlets can
TORNADO SAFETY TIPS
- Tornado watch: tornadoes and/or severe thunderstorms are possible in a wide area. Be alert.
Tornado warning: a tornado has been spotted or shown on radar. Take cover immediately.
A sky that is dark with a greenish cast, severe thunderstorms, high winds and hail all are associated with tornadoes. If these conditions are present, take cover.
Seek shelter indoors immediately. A basement or underground shelter is best.
If no basement is available, go to the center of the lowest floor of the building. A closet or bathroom with no windows works well.
Cover up with a blanket, pillow, or sleeping bag to protect from flying debris.
- Avoid rooms with plate glass windows.
Do not attempt to drive during severe weather.
then decide whether regular broadcasting will be interrupted by Emergency Broadcast System warnings.
Although participation is not mandatory, the service is encouraging schools and other public buildings, businesses and individuals to participate in the drills, Akulow said.
"We hope that people will react to the drills as if they were real," he said.
Officials from KJHK and KANU were not sure yesterday whether the stations would break into their regular programming with Emergency Broadcast System warnings.
Douglas County will be participating in the drills, said Paula Phillips, director of Douglas County Emergency Management.
the tornado sirens in the county will sound after the service issues the warnings, as long as weather permits, she said.
"We won't sound them if the sky is overcast or if it's cold and snowy," Phillips said. "This is only a drill, and we don't want 'people to think that it's real when it isn't.'"

California sun, fun handed to winners of fund-raising event
By Jamie Knodel
jknodel@kansan.com
Kanson staff writer
Two KU students will enjoy the sunshine, celebrities and style of California, courtesy of Elsworth Hall.
Abbie Reimer and Cassie Holman, both Liberal sophomores, are planning a weekend getaway to Los Angeles in mid-April.
Relmer won two round-trip plane tickets to Los Angeles, hotel accommodations for the weekend and $150 spending money for her and a travel companion last week at Ellsworth Hall's Escape to L.A. event.
Ellsworth Hall residents used Escape to L.A. to raise money to benefit the Douglas County AIDS Project.
Jon Davis, event organizer and Newton freshman, said that the program raised nearly $1,000 for the charity and that more than 300 people attended. This was the first year Ellsworth residents sponsored the project.
"We put a lot of hard work into getting it going," Davis said. "I hope that the program keeps going and that it is made into an annual event."
Reimer said that right before the drawing she and Holman said a prayer that they might win the trip.
"We had an agreement between the two of us before we even went in," Reimer said. "If either of us won, we had to take the other."
She said the arrangement with
Holman had made winning the trip easier because she didn't have to decide who to take.
"A lot of people have been trying to talk me into taking them," Reimer said.
She said that both she and Holman were looking forward to the trip and the chance to get away, but that their vacation agenda had not been set.
"We have so much we want to do in so little time that we really want to research and look into the options we have," she said.
Different themes and activities were on each floor of the hall for the event. Some themes included James Bond or a casino, plus there were movie and food floors.
Students who attended paid a $3 admission fee, which registered them for the trip raffle. They also had the option of purchasing additional raffle tickets. All money raised went to the charity.
"We each bought an extra ticket, so we had four chances to win," Reimer said.
Reimer said she planned to explore all of her options before she made a schedule. Friends have been suggesting possible activities, like going to game show tapings, Reimer said.
She said Los Angeles was some place she always had wanted to visit.
"I probably would have gone eventually," she said. "Just not in April."

Chippendales show off talents
By Dan Curry
dcurry@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
MICHAEL WASHINGTON
It's not a bad dream.
Six nights a week he turns around and bam — there's a sea of screaming women and a hot-pink light — and he is wearing nothing but a g-string. We don't know where it goes.
Or a good dream.
Austin McKinney, Chippendale dancer, orders a drink after his performance at Tremors night club, 729 New Hampshire St. McKinney and other Chippendales danced at the crowded club on Saturday night. **Magus Magnus Andersson/KANSAN**
"If you're already warm, we're going to make you hot," the announcer says.
"Remember ladies, the more noise you make, the more clothes fall off," the announcer says.
For Austin McKinney, it's the very real nightly grinder of being a Chippendales' dancer.
Beetcake bouncers had scrounged up every chair in the club, had stretched vinyl over old seats, and still every table was full as women scrambled for a place to sit before the show.
"We want to see some buns!" shouted one eager audience member.
As women milled about among the purple, neon lights and faux marble pillars, McKinney leaned against the bar after his show and talked about the life of a traveling dancer.
"It's really very flattering," said McKinney, who has been dancing with the Chippendales for four years. "I admit it. I like it when the girls are having a good time — that's what it's all about because that's my job."
"You really have to put your heart and soul into it—all the energy you put into the routine and the exercise," he said.
They try to work out everyday, practice dancing for at least two hours and keep a high-protein, low-carbohydrate diet, he said.
During the show they usually dance for about 45 minutes, and burn a lot of calories in the process, he said.
Tours last about six weeks each, and McKinney said he usually took in about $2,000 a week.
McKinney said he was saving up his money so that he could return to Hollywood and wait for acting agents to call him back.
Traveling with seven men in one van for that long can get touchy,he said.
"You try to keep your sanity," he said.
After most shows the dancers go find someplace good to eat, and then they usually pack up and head out for the next city that same night, he said.
McKinney said many of the dancers had girlfriends that they called after the show, but that relationships rarely worked out because they were always traveling.
"I don't have a social life." he said.
Because of the exhaustive dancing and traveling, dancers in America can not get as physically built as the dancers in Europe, who tend to stay in one place longer.
"As long as you're really cut, the girls don't mind," he said.
Minda Ryan, Kansas City, Kan.,
junior, did not mind.
"I really liked Austin," she said. "He was very smooth. Whenever he got up on stage the females were mesmerized. He seemed sensual. He was very good looking."
"I don't really get out much because I have such a busy schedule," she said. "But my friend was celebrating her birthday. We wanted to have some fun."
Ryan said she never pictured herself going to a Chimpendows show.
Her favorite part of the show, she said, was when the announcer entered, lip-synching the Bon Jovi song, Days of Glory.
The highlight of the evening was the raffle. Ryan said.
"He came out and he was wearing a cowboy outfit and started a fire on stage," she said.
"The final prize was to rub down one of the dancers with baby oil," she said. "The girl who won was at her bachelorette party. She had on a giant, stuffed penis from Priscilla's. She wore it the whole night."
During the show, women exposed their stomachs and asked the dancers to simg their bodies.
"You get to asking yourself 'is this all I'm worth?' McKinney said. "This isn't going to last forever. I admit it."

Barbie Bits
After 40 years, a girl accumulates quite a bit of personal history. Here are just a few interesting bits of trivia about Barbie and her friends:
- Summit Barbies were introduced in the late 1980s to commemorate the end of the Cold War.
Barbie $ ^{4}= $ one blonde ambition.
■ The Army, Navy, Air Force and Marine Corps Barbies underwent revision by the Pentagon to ensure accuracy in the uniforms
Share A Smile Becky, introduced in 1997, was the first Barbie who used a wheelchair.
■ Placed head to toe, all the Barbles sold since 1959 would circle the earth more than seven times.
The first African-American and Hispanic Barbies were introduced in 1980. Freundschaffs (Friendship) Barbie was introduced in 1990 to commemorate the fall of the Berlin Wall.
Barbie's full name is Barbie Millicent Roberts. She is from Willows, Wis. and attended Willows High School.
An original 1959 Barbari in mint condition is worth as much as $,000.

ordy, lordy, look who's 40!
Barbie, the forever-young princess of pink, will celebrate tomorrow.
The most popular fashion doll in the world today was first introduced March 9, 1959 at the Toy Fair in New York. Since then, Barbie has become a $1.9 billion business. Every second, two Barbies are sold somewhere in the world, according to Mattel.
The doll was named after the daughter of creator Ruth Handler, and the Ken doll was named after her son. Handler created the doll because she saw her daughter and her friends playing with adult paper dolls. However, the only three-dimensional dolls available to young girls at the time were baby dolls, which allowed to girls to pretend to be mothers, or toddler dolls that were the same size as the girls. Handler wanted girls to be able to act out roles that didn't necessarily involve just motherhood.

According to the PBS documentary, Barbie Nation, the doll was based on a German doll called Lili, which was

Of course, Lillis's grown-up look didn't go over well with Mattel executives in the late '50s, and when Barbie was first introduced, mothers were mortified as well.

Handler modified the doll to make her appearance more youthful and her dress less provocative, and then marketed her directly to little girls as "Barbie, the teen-age fashion model."
Since then, Barbie has had 75 careers, including candy striper, astronaut, soldier, sailor and doctor. Barbie was even a presidential candidate in 1992 — appropriately enough, "The Year of the Woman."
Barbie's advertising slogan for years has been "We girls can do anything," and in 1999 Mattel will tell little girls to simply "Be anything."
However, of all the things that Barbie has done during the years, she never has been a mother. This fact is not lost on people who have an interest in Barbie's place in American culture.
"I'd like to know if Barbie is still a virgin," said William Tuttle, professor of history and American studies.
Tuttle said that he found it interesting that feminist mothers who grew up playing with Barbie dolls often swore that they would never buy them for their own daughters.
"Depending on their environment, girls may see Barbie as just a doll or as something to aspire to."
Kathy Rose-Mockry Program director for the Emily Taylor Women's Resource Center
But little girls seem to love the doll almost universally, and people who vowed never to own one again often find themselves succumbing to her charms for their daughters, he said.
"My wife and I are both feminists," said Tuttle, "and we still buy our 5-year-old granddaughter Barbies."
Tuttle said that he and his wife and daughter all bought Barbie dolls for his granddaughter because it was hard to save no to her requests.
"She's very beguiling," he said.

"The Barbie image has been criticized as one more of the pressures on little girls to look like that," said Mike Cuenca, assistant professor of visual communications.
"Barbie has become a derogatory term for the women who do fit the stereotype of a beautiful blonde who may or may not have a lot in her head," he said.
Guenca said that Barbie herself had become a stereotype and was unattainable in reality for most women.
Another of the ironies present in Barbie's 40th birthday is that it falls in the middle of Women's History Month, and March 9 is International

Kathy Rose-Mocky, program director for the Emily Taylor Women's Resource Center, said that she found the coincidence funny.
She also said that much of what Barbie meant to little girls was determined by their parents.
Augusto, his wife, agrees with that approach to playing with Barbie
"I realize that she has big breasts and a little tiny waist," she said, referring to Barbie. "But I tell Larissa that she's just a doll. People don't look like that."

'Hawks win third straight Big 12 tournament title
CHAMPION
By Kevin C. Wilson Kansan sportswriter
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Once again the Kansas Jayhawks are the kings of the Big 12 Conference.
After a roller-coaster ride of a season, in which the Jayhawks finished in a three-way tie for second place in the Big 12, Kansas had something to prove.
The Jayhawks manhandled a sluggish Oklahoma State team 53-37 yesterday and claimed their third straight conference tournament title, pushing their record to a perfect 9-0 in the Big 12 tournament.
"We had a lot of ups and downs in conference play, so this got a big monkey off our back," said Jeff Boschee, who was named the tournament's Most Valuable Player. "We came in here and played the best basketball of the year. We wanted to prove we're still on top of the Big 12."
Oklahoma State, which appeared to show the effects of playing four games in four days, shot just 23 percent from the field, the worst shooting performance in Big 12 tournament history.
Kansas coach Roy Williams said defense was his team's priority from the outset.
"It was a nightmare," Cowboy coach Eddie Sutton said. "I don't think I've ever had a team shoot 23 percent in all my years of coaching."
"We needed to do a good job on defense," Williams said. "We wanted to make sure we got a hand up in the shooter's face every time. We wanted the fatigue factor to set in and usually that doesn't set in until a team starts to struggle."
Oklahoma State's 37 points was also the lowest point total for the Cowboys since
they scored 35 against Oklahoma on Dec.27.1965.
Both teams struggled to find a rhythm early in the game, as neither team held more than a three-point advantage during the first 13 minutes. With 7:57 remaining in the first half and Kansas trailing 16-15, Lester Earl provided a spark for the Jayhawks. The 6-8 forward scored seven points as Kansas used a 9-0 run to seize a 23-16 lead with 5:18 remaining in the half.
"Lester came in and gave us a big lift." Williams said. "He's really struggled all year long and I'm glad that he could have some success here."
After the Cowboys trimmed the lead to 24-21, guard Kenny Gregory scored four straight points to send the Jayhawks into the locker room with a 28-21 lead.
The Cowboys scored the first points of the second half, making the score 28-23, but Kansas responded with its first two three-pointers of the game and a 17-3 run that sealed the victory. Oklahoma State made just two of its first 21 shots in the second half and made only one out of 11 three-pointers after intermission.
Earl's 11 points were his most since scoring 16 against Iowa State on Jan. 9. He tied guard Ryan Robertson for the game high on Sunday.
Robertson, who has never lost in the Big 12 tournament, said this victory was a fitting ending to his conference career.
"It was a good way to go out and you can't ask for anything better than that." Robertson said. "It means a lot, especially to the freshmen, because they can see that all our hard work has finally paid off with the Big 12 championship."

Tournament highlights
A Brooklyn Central defender led the 19 teams. Surveys and analysis of the New York Knicks, Los Angeles Clippers, and Cleveland Cavaliers show that Brooklyn Central is a formidable team. The team's success on the court comes from its ability to adapt to different opponents. Despite being ranked No. 2 in the league, Brooklyn Central has shown strong defensive skills, including blocking shots and stealing openings. They are also known for their strong offensive plays, which contribute to their overall success in the tournament.
Eric Chenowith has blocked 75 shots this season, the fourth-best single-season total in Kansas history.
Ryan Robertson scored his 1,000th career point in Saturday's win, becoming the 38th player in Kansas history to do so.

Kansas women stay in tough Midwest bracket

General Marian Washington gathered with her troops yesterday at their home base — Allen Fieldhouse — and awaited orders from the top. So what did headquarters have to say?

Go to West Lafayette, Ind., home of the No. 1-ranked team in the nation, and prepare for the battle of your lives.
The NCAA selection committee, in Kansas City for the last year before it moves to Indianapolis, kept the No. 25 ranked Jayhawks, 21-8 overall, in the Midwest Regional, but not exactly in the way they were hoping for. Kansas landed the ninth seed in the Midwest and will face the Marquette Golden Eagles (21-7) in the first round of the NCAA Tournament.
Eyebrows raised, jaws dropped and the room grew nearly silent as the Kansas players watched ESPN analyst Robin Roberts announce their seeding. The team knew it had little chance of receiving a top-four seed and the benefit of being host to a regional at home, but the low seeding came as quite a surprise.
"Nobody expected a nine seed," said sophomore Jaclyn Johnson. "But you have to take what you're given. It's going to be tough."
The team's upbeat attitude could not mask the obvious disappointment if felt and the feeling may be justified. The sixth, seventh and eighth seeds in Kansas 'region — Arizona, Mississippi State and Marquette, respectively — are not ranked in the Associated Press Top 25 and only Marquette
has more than 16 wins.
What may be most disturbing for the Jayhawks is what will likely await in the second round should they defeat Marquette in "hostile territory" — the No. 1-ranked Purdue Boilermakers (27-1), who have defeated two-time defending national champion Tennessee. Purdue faces Oral Roberts in the first round.
"This team has been in this situation before," Washington said. "We're going to go in with some experience and hopefully pull some upsets. Whether it's Marquette or Purdue, we're going to have to play some tremendous defense."

Longhorns shut down Jayhawks in three-game sweep
By Matt Tait
By Matt Tait

Kansas sportswriter
The first weekend series at newly renovated Hoglund Ballpark proved not to be a memorable one as Texas swept the Kansas baseball team in three games.
The Longhorns, ranked No.10 in the nation, pounded out hit after hit throughout the series and capitalized on Kansas' miscues to earn the sweep.
On top of the overwhelming differential in number of errors, the timing of the errors also was a factor. Kansas' errors often led to Texas runs, while Texas errors were not as costly.
While Kansas continued to struggle with its execution, the Longhorns rarely made mistakes. In the three games, the Jayhawks committed nine errors, while Texas had only two.
Coach Bobby Randall said part of it was the lack of execution on the
Jayhawks' part, but that a bigger part of it was Texas' defense.
"They played incredible infield defense," Randall said. "Their 'D' never let those close plays become a factor."
The Jayhawks played their best game of the series on Sunday but lost 6-1. Starting pitcher Chris Williams went six innings and baffled the Texas bats through the first four innings, but lost his control in the fifth and sixth.
"Chris blew the bats out of their
Baseball
hands for the first four innings," Randall said. "I'm very pleased with how he pitched."
The 'Hawks grabbed the lead in the second inning when Ryan Klocksien singled in Jason
Appuhn, who had led off the inning with a triple.
The Longhorns answered the Kansas run in the next inning as hard-hitting first baseman Jeff Otiveros doubled in a run.
Texas did not dominate offensively until the fifth, when they hit back-to-back solo home runs. Ontiveros hit the first, his sixth of the year, and third baseman Chris Houser hit the second. It was Houser's fourth of the year, and his third in this series.
The home runs rattled Kansas, and provided Texas starter D.J. Jones with enough insurance to settle into a zone. Jones pitched a complete game and at one point retired 13 Jayhawk hitters in a row.
"I think the first home run surprised him (Williams)," Randall said. "And the second one was an indication that he had lost his control."

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (March 8).
Thinking about a career change? This could be the year for it. You could hear about a way to make more money in April. It sounds too good to be true, but it's not. Work to learn the skills you'll need in May, so by August you'll be totally competent. Accept an invitation that involves travel in November but save December for career related matters. Finalize paperwork in February and settle into a permanent routine.
Aries: Today is a 7
You're looking very good today and all this week. You're not only sharp, but you’re also generous, warm and cuddly. Your biggest problem is sticking to your work schedule. You’d much rather be out playing, but there will be time enough for that after business hours.
Taurus: Today is a 5
You could stumble on an excellent deal that's just slightly out of your range. If you and a partner go in together, you'll be able to cincit it down. But that causes other complications. Make sure you divvy it up before you put down your money.
Gemini: Today is a 6
Your favorite sparring partner is going to be in magnificent form this week. Your chances of winning are slim, but you ought to learn several interesting new tricks. This is not a good day to instigate a legal proceeding, for exactly that reason.
Cancer: Today is a 6
Should you do it for the love or the money? Today, you might get to combine both. You're either doing work you love, or working with somebody you love, or loving life in general because you're making so much money.
Domestic matters need attention, but once they're finished, romance takes priority. If it looks like there's not much work getting done, you're right, and that could be a problem, but not if you reschedule the work for later in the week instead.
Virgo: Today is a 5
Libra: Today is a 7
Looks like this day turns out well for you, even though it's not quite the way you imagined. Instead of getting too specific on what you want, better leave some room for creativity. That way you'll be more satisfied with whatever you get.
A person you find very attractive would like to teach you something today. Luckily, it's something you've been eager to learn for quite some time. You have your own ideas, of course, which you'll contribute.
Sagittarius: Today is a 7
First, get your strategy worked out, and hurry. You may not have as much time for that as you'd planned. The configuration is changing, and action is required You'll be moving faster than the speed of light for the next few days.
It's time to invest in fixing up your place. You've been putting off spending money, but that's not a good idea. It's going to have to be done sooner or later, and it's already later. So, go shopping for something you know you need.
Capricorn: Today is a 6
A friend who owes you a favor might be able to pull some strings and help you get something you want. Looks like it's an item for your home, or perhaps even real estate itself. Is it time for you to buy another chunk of land?
Aquarius: Today is a 7
you've probably been feeling repressed for the last few days. Well, that feeling is starting to fade as you realize you've won the last round. You may have even come out wealthier because of your recent maneuvering.
Pisces: Today is a 6
2
A distant friend could lead you to a good business opportunity today. If you've been thinking about relocating, this could be your chance. It might require you to do something you've never done before, but that's not a problem.

The Kansas softball team's season took a turn for the worse this weekend at the University of Arizona Invitational in Tuscon.
"Obviously, I'm disappointed," head coach Tracy Bunge said. "But with the young squad that we have, we've got to try and focus on more of the positives. I do think progress was made this weekend and I think we will bounce back. We will continue to get better."

Texas defense, hitting keys to weekend sweep
Continued from page 1A
The Longhorns added two more runs in the sixth, which closed out the scoring for the day.
The two runs in the sixth came with two outs. In the series, the Longhorns scored a total of 17 runs with two outs, a feat coach Augie Garrido was proud of.
"That shows the commitment our players have to sustain the rally and get the next guy up to the plate." Garrido said.
Junior Rusty Philbrick pitched five innings and gave up four hits. Kansas managed only six hits in the game.
Saturday's game was a different story, as the Longhorns pounded out 15 hits and scored 15 runs, defeating Kansas 15-4.
A bright spot for the Jayhawks was freshman Jason Appuhn, who continued to perform well. Appuhn hit his second home run of the year in the fifth inning.
In Friday's opener the Jay hawks faced one of the dominant pitchers in the nation. Texas right-hander Scott Dunn pitched eight strong innings and frustrated Kansas hitters until the ninth.
Trailing 11-3 going into the ninth, the Jayhawks pushed across three runs and left the bases loaded as a comeback attempt fell short. The 'Hawks lost 11-6, but left the game feeling good about their resilience.
"The way we played was not bad, but the final result was not good," Randall said.
The weekend series saw two hitting streaks continued. Texas right fielder Jason Aspito pushed his to 14 games, and Kansas outfielder Doug Dreher upped his to nine.
Kansas, 3-12 overall, and 0-6 in the Big 12 Conference, battled the Longhorns (15-6 and 6-0) all weekend.
Randall said the team was not far from winning two of the three games.
"There was a different approach and a different feel to these ball games," Randall said. "We got some things straightened out and found out what it means to play Jayhawk baseball."
"This is a different Texas team than I've seen in two years." Randall said. "They show you how to play baseball." "That pitcher today, wow, and the guy Friday night, those are two of the best in the country."
Despite how they battled and competed, Randall and the players gave a lot of the credit to Texas.
The Jayhawks will head back to the road Tuesday to play Southwest Missouri State at 2:30 p.m., and will travel to Iowa State this weekend for a three-game series.

Commentary
Longhorn tradition exemplifies loyalty dedication to team
If you're looking for someone to blab about the NCAA tournament brackets, you'll have to keep looking.
Because even with the two-television living room and posterboard sized bracket all set up in my apartment, something caught my attention more than the selection show yesterday.
After Texas completed a three-game sweep of our baseball team
in 30-something degree weather yesterday in Lawrence, the Longhorn players showed the 50 or so bundled-up fans who stayed until the end what school pride and sports should be all about.
1934
Sam Mellinger sports@kansan.com
the team stood along the third-base line, each player pointing his right arm to the sky with the index and pinky fingers extended, forming at least a slight semblance of a Longhorn.
The Eyes of Texas was played while the players stood.
I don't know how many of you knew this already — I sure didn't — but apparently this ritual goes on before and after every University of Texas sporting event. Win or lose, they do this.
A few years ago, when Texas upset Nebraska in the Big 12 football championship game, the team celebrated with their flesh-formed Longhorns held high.
A few months ago, when Kansas State beat Texas about as thoroughly as a football team can be beaten, the team walked over to where the school's band was seated, held their Longhorns high and sung along.
I thought a lot about what that meant. And the baseball team wasn't doing it by themselves.
Amazingly, 20 or so of the fans in attendance were decked out in Texas orange. Keep in mind, a trip from Austin to Lawrence is not exactly a short drive.
The Texas sports information contact at the game told me that at least that many show up for almost every road game. At home, it's more than 4,000. Keep in mind, this is for baseball. College baseball.
Sure, Texas is ranked 10th this season, but the team's support has been constant through some bad times. The Longhorns were 23-32-1 last season but the fans were still there.
With today's here-today-gone after-a-loss sports fan, it's really refreshing to see a tradition like this.
This is not a call for more obsessive fans looking to claim an identity through a sports team. The last thing this country needs is more people like "The Rick" from those ESPN commercials.
But what the sporting world could use is a few more loyal fans. A few more people willing to support a team even if they don't have Michael Jordan or Ken Griffey Jr. or Emmitt Smith. We could use a few more people to cheer for a team that's not a title contender. Or — no subtlety intended — a few more people to support a usually-dominant-and-now-merely-good college basketball team through a few blown leads and home losses.
Again, nobody wants obsession, just loyalty.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not and never have been a Texas fan of any kind. Not Texas, not A&M, not Tech, not Baylor, not the Mavericks, not the Spurs and definitely not the Cowboys.
But I do like to see true sports fans, and yesterday I saw about 20.

Men end swim meet a few strokes behind
Team efforts fall short as Kansas places fifth at conference event
By Emily Hughey sports @kansan.com Kansan sportswriter
Despite plans to move up in the world of Big 12 Conference swimming, the Kansas men's swimming and diving team wrapped up the conference championships with a disappointing fifth-place finish.
Texas, Nebraska, Texas A&M and Iowa State placed first through fourth, respectively, with Kansas trailing 60 points behind the fourth-place Iowa State men. Missouri placed sixth.
Junior Tyler Painter, three-time All-American, said two days before the meet that he wanted to win all of his events. Although he did win his third straight title in the 1,650-yard freestyle with a time of 15:08.42, his fifth-place performance in the 500-yard freestyle and his fourth-place finish in the 400-yard individual medley were not what he wanted.
"I wasn't in it emotionally this morning. I just didn't have that spark," Painter said. "I just wanted to get it out of the way."
After his victory in the 1,650. Painter said he would have liked a faster time.
"To win is all right but, in this sport, time is very important, too." he said.
Junior Brandon Chestnut, who placed second in the 100-yard breaststroke and broke his Kansas record, said he was happy to have placed but that he, too, was disappointed with his time.
"I wanted to win," Chestnut said. "At least I got a colored medal."
Coach Gary Kemp agreed that the men were racing for places. Nevertheless, he was pleased with their effort.
"They didn't swim fast; they competed to win." Kempf said Thursday night. "There was a fantastic total team effort."
Senior Trent Hartl, who hoped
to requalify for the NCAA Championships in the 200-yard freestyle, placed fourth with a consideration time of 1:37.70. Although he did not reach his goal, he said he was pleased with the rest of the team.
"I felt good. It just didn't happen." Hartl said. "I'm happy with the way the guys are swimming."
With a 1:48.39 in the 200-yard backstroke, sophomore Will Bernhardt broke Eric Burton's 4-year-old Kansas record of 1:48.64 and placed sixth. Although he broke both the record, Bernhardt was not content.
"I'm happy, but tonight I don't know what happened." Bernhardt said. "I think I was mentally more prepared tonight, but my body wasn't."
On the diving side, freshmen Adam Hanhart and Kenny Haglund placed seventh and eighth on the platform, respectively.
Although the team placed fifth at the meet, Kempf said he was proud of the dignity with which the men handled their disappointment.

"Obviously, I'm a little disappointed with our placing. Our effort was good and the swims were good. We just struggled to place at the necessary places to challenge Iowa State for fourth place," Kempf said. "But the guys showed a tremendous amount of class and a tremendous amount of character."
At this point, only Painter will compete at the NCAA Championships March 25-27 in Indianapolis but those who received consideration times may be selected to compete as well, depending on how they rank with consideration times from other conferences.
The women's NCAA Championships will be March 18-20 in Athens, Ga.

Tennis team continues hot streak

The Kansas men's tennis team increased its winning streak to six games this weekend because of an unlikely hero.
In the third set, Blakeney defeated Kai Rieke 6-4, 3-6, 6-4 as the team charged toward Blakeney for a victory celebration.
"I didn't know that my match was the deciding match, but there is always pressure when everyone is watching your match." Blakeney said. "In the third set, I was really getting tired, but my teammates helped pull me through. They gave me motivation and kept pumping me up so I could come back."
Coach Mark Riley said Blakeney reacted well to the situation.
"Quentin played outstanding," Riley said. "He played with great heart. He didn't play well in the second set, but he came out in the third and finished the job."
The match started slowly as the team lost the doubles point for the first time this season.
In No. 1 doubles, No. 12 Luis Uribe and Ed Dus lost to Dinko Verzi and Andrew Wisee 8-5, and in No. 2 doubles, Kenny Powell and Alex Barragan lost their first match of the season to Jorge Abos Sanchez and Lance Mills 8-4. The sole victory came in No. 3 doubles as Rodrigo Echagaray and Quentin Blakeney defeated Kai Rieke and Ryan Haith 8-6.
Uribe, hampered by an Achilles tendon injury that has bothered him all season, lost his second straight, falling to Verzi in three sets 6-1, 3-6, 6-4.
"That's the best I have ever seen Dinko Verzi play," Riley said. "Luis has beat him a couple of times, but
that's part of being No. 1. When you're a top-10 player, people play better against you."
Powell continued his outstanding play as he defeated Mills in No.2 singles 6-1, 6-3.
"Kenny Powell played a great match," Riley said. "He showed a lot of senior leadership and beat a good player decisively. He pulled us back in because I knew if it came down to five and six singles, we could win the match."
With Powell's victory, the win fell into the hands of an improved freshman team that had led their team to victory.
Barragan defeated Roshan Fernando in straight sets 62, 62 in No.4 singles, and Echagaray defeated Andrew Wiese 64, 62 in No.6 singles. Blakeney won in the deciding match.
"Alex, Rodrigo and Quentin have really come through for us all year," Powell said. "Tonight, they stepped up and won the match for us. It really shows how bright the future of KU tennis is."
The win improves the Jayhawks' record to 6-1 overall and 1-0 in the Big 12.

Men receive No.6 seed in Big Dance
After winning six of its last seven games and breezing to its third straight Big 12 Conference Tournament title this weekend, the Kansas men's basketball team thought it had done enough to impress the NCAA tournament committee.
Instead, the 22-9 Jayhawks received the No. 6 seed in the Midwest bracket and will play No. 11-seeded Evansville on Friday in New Orleans.
"I was a little bit surprised and disappointed with the fact that we got a sixth seed," Kansas guard Ryan Robertson said. "I thought with this weekend's performance and the way we played, a four or five would have been more deserving."
Kansas coach Roy Williams said that although he thought before the selection
that his team may have played its way into a five seed, the six seed properly represented the type of season it has had.
"The fact of the matter is we have a six seed because that's what we deserved," Williams said.
I will not give you the name of the person in the picture. It is too blurry to be read. Please provide a clear image of the person's face.
Despite their apparent slight in the seeding, the Jayhawks now must focus on this form for 20
getting ready for 23-9 Evansville.
The Purple Aces, who earned an at-large bid after winning the Missouri Valley Conference regular-season title with a 13-5 record, lost in the tournament final 70-61 to Creighton.

The Jayhawks may have been disappointed with their seeding, but they are still the highest-ranked team of the five Big 12 teams in the tournament. Texas is a No.7 seed, Missouri a No.8 seed, Oklahoma State a No.9 seed and Oklahoma a No.13 seed.
ketball they play," Williams said. "I've got a lot of respect for them."
Williams said he was not surprised at the low seedlings the Big 12 received.
"Earlier in the year we didn't play very well in our nonconference schedules," Williams said. "The whole league is very young and then we got a little maturity and started playing better. But at that time we were playing each other and taking turns beating each other up."
"If we're disappointed as a league, we only have one group to blame and that's ours."

The Kansas men's basketball team cruised to the Big 12 conference tournament final this weekend with two impressive victories.
The Jayhawks thumped Nebraska 77-53 in the quarterfinals and defeated Kansas State 69-58 in the semi-finals.
'Hawks push past 'Cats, 'Huskers to title
Freshman guard Jeff Boschee, who made 4 of 7 three-pointers, led the Jayhawks with 16 points. Sophomores Eric Chenowith and Kenny Gregory scored 15 points each and senior Ryan Robertson added 13.
On Friday night, four Jayhawks scored in double figures as Kansas exacted some revenge on the Cornhuskers, who had swept the Jayhawks during the regular season.
Kansas shot an impressive 52.7 percent from the field against Nebraska, its highest percentage since Dec. 12 when the Jayhawks shot 59.4 percent against Southern Cal. The Jayhawks also made 8 of 17 shots from three-point range. That's more than they made in their previous three games
With 13:15 remaining in the game, and Kansas holding on to a 45-36 lead, the Jayhawks' pressure defense began to wear down the Cornhuskers. Nebraska turned the ball over on eight of 11 possessions and the Jayhawks went on a 21-2 run and never looked back.
In the semifinals, the Jayhawks continued their dominance of their in-state rival by claiming their 16th straight victory against Kansas State.
combined.
Chenowith led Kansas with 20 points and 11 rebounds, including a perfect 10 of 10 from the line, for his 10th double-double of the season.
After the Wildcats used a 11-3 run to take a 55-54 lead with 5:30 remaining in the game, the Jayhawks outscored Kansas State 15-3 the rest of the way. Boschee scored nine of his career-high 19 points during the surge, including the last six for the Jayhawks.

Scholarship halls reconsider parking plan
(USPS 650-640)
By Nadia Mustafa
nmustafa@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
Many scholarship hall residents are frustrated that their $75 parking permits do not guarantee them parking spaces in scholarship hall lots.
The parking lots behind Sellards Scholarship Hall are overcrowded because parking permits were oversold. Residents who have to park their vehicles late at night park on Ohio Street and walk to their hall. Photo by Konawee Na/KANSAN
The parking department sold permits to 274 residents this year, but the Alumni Place lots have only 246 spaces. Residents said that it was hard to find spaces during the week, especially late at night and early in the morning.
David Freeman, Hutchinson senior and chair of the All Scholarship Hall Council's parking task force, said that it was more difficult to find parking spaces this year.
He said that the task force would begin a petition drive next week, which would recognize residents' complaints about the lack of spaces and would request that the parking department be more flexible in providing spaces for loading.
"This effort is to open communication with the parking department and to change some policies." Freeman said.
Donna Hultine, assistant parking
director, said that she realized that parking was crowded in the Alumni Place lots. She said that the addition of Amini Scholarship Hall seven years ago exacerbated the situation.
Hultine said that ASHC denied the parking department's suggestion in 1995 that would limit the number of permits to the number of spaces available.
She said that if ASHC agreed, the department still would willing to restrict the number of permits, but that the parking board would not take any action without ASHC's consent.
"Changing the policy on how we issue permits is the only room we have to play," she said. "Otherwise, I think it will be the same situation next year."
would be aggravated by the construction of another scholarship hall north of Amini. The new hall, which will house 50 residents, is scheduled to open in fall 2000.
Freeman said that he thought ASHC's sentiments had changed and that he planned to conduct a survey or referendum to gauge residents' opinions.
Hultine said that the lots were oversold by 28 spaces this year because more residents had cars than in past years. She said the problem worsened when most residents were home and when students at neighborhood bars parked illegally in the lots.
Ken Stoner, director of the Department of Student Housing, said that he was reviewing plans for a parking lot to accompany the new hall but that he had not yet confirmed a specific plan.
She said that the parking problem also
Loyal Miles, Wichita junior and Amini resident, said that parking by Amini was congested. He said that many residents came home after 11 p.m. had to park on Ohio Street.
"It's gotten worse each year," Miles said. "But this is by far the worst year."
Robin Sullivan, Kansas City sophomore and Sellards resident, said that she often had to park several blocks away and walk home in the dark.
"If you ever get home after 9:30 or 10, there's never any parking," she said. "It doesn't make any sense to even buy a permit. It's a problem during the day too because if you leave you'll never get a parking space."
Hultine said that the parking department notified students who purchased permits that they would not be guaranteed spaces. She said that she thought that was unfair in resident lots and that she hoped that ASHC would agree to limit the number of permits sold.
Hultine said that the parking department would offer a pro-rated refund to residents who wanted to return their Alumni Place permits.
Faculty gets a lesson on skipping
By Chris Hopkins
chopkins@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
Professors who want to know why their students sleep in — instead of coming to class — should look to their own syllabi.
A study conducted by Paul Friedman, associate professor of communications studies; Fred Rodriguez, director of the Center for Teaching Excellence, and Joe McComb, Lawrence graduate student, found that the No.1 reason students skip classes was because of the lack of attendance policies.
Stephanie Mariano, Lansing freshman, said that she skipped classes that she didn't think she needed to attend.
"That's like my Chemistry lecture," she said. "I've probably been four times all year."
The findings, which were presented yesterday to 10 professors at a CTE Lunch and Conversation session, were based upon surveys filled out by 350 KU students enrolled in 1,633 different courses.
Several other factors added to the problem of skipping in various classes.
Large classes, classes taught by professors and non-required courses were all more likely to be skipped, according to the survey results.
Students with lower grade point averages were also more likely to skip. McComb said that to keep students in

McComb said that to keep students in class, professors needed to develop a
"Students said they liked smaller classes because the teacher notices and cares that they're there," he said.
McComb said that the difference between the attendance rates in classes taught by professors and those taught by GTAs surprised him. GTAs' class attendance rates were consistently higher than those of professors.
The difference was true even when the class sizes were consistent. McComb said he thought it pointed to a problem within the policies.
"The GTAs take attendance whereas the professors usually don't," McComb said.
Another factor which affects attendance is the type of class.
Classes in professional schools and labs were skipped the least, while natural science courses were skipped the most. The other two categories, social sciences and humanities, fell in the middle.

Angela Giles, Towanda senior and business school student, said that the setup of her business classes necessitated attendance.
"A lot of the classes that I take require a lot of participation," she said. Participation was one of the things that the researchers suggested to increase attendance. Several studies by other researchers have shown that requesting student feedback would make them feel noticed and cared for and would increase attendance.

Hemenway ignites major fund-raising campaign
By Kristi Reimer
Similar to the way a thirsty student with empty pockets collects change from friends for a soda on a hot afternoon, the University of Kansas is considering asking its friends for money to support its needs.

But the KU Endowment Association would amass hundreds of millions of dollars, not nickels, dimes and quarters.
The association has assembled a committee to examine the possibility of a major fund-raising campaign, only its third in recent history. The committee met for the first time late last month.
"First you form an exploratory committee to find out what you need to do to
Chancellor Robert Hemenway likened the fund drive at this point to running for president.
The University raised $265.3 million in a capital campaign that lasted from 1988 to 1992 and $21 million in a fund drive in the late '60s. Both campaigns exceeded organizers' initial goals.

amount can be determined for this effort, committee members will interview alumni and corporate leaders,
work with Hemenway to create a priority list of needs, audit University programs and recruit volunteers.
"There will be hundreds of people involved." Hemenway said.
He said students would play an important role when organizers met with them to get their input about what they thought the University needed.
Forrest Hoglund, CEO of Enron Oil & Gas Co. of Houston and Hoglund Ballpark's nameakes, will be chairman of the committee. In addition to Hemenway, other members include Dolph Simons Jr., Endowment Association chairman; Nancy Kassebaum Baker, former U.S. senator; and David Dillon, president of Kroger Co. in Cincinnati. There are 13 members total.
Hemenway said that although specific needs had not been identified, funds

would go toward projects in four broad categories:
New buildings and renovations
- Faculty teaching and research support
- Other service and research programs
John Scarffe, director of communications for the Endowment Association, said a campaign was getting off the ground for two reasons: the University's need for funds and Hemenway's length of service at KU.
"We have a chancellor in place who's been here long enough so that we believe he can do an effective job in fund-raising." Scarlett said.

Survey reflects public's want for bus system
By Heather Woodward
woodward@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
Public transportation advocates are getting the community support they always have wished for.
In the 1998 Lawrence Citizen Survey, which will be presented to the Lawrence City Commission tomorrow night, 78 percent of respondents said they were in favor of a citywide bus system, a 20 percent increase from 1996.
Holly Krebs, holdover senator, said she thought the increased support for public transportation could be attributed to the city's population growth.
Quality of City Services Survey
"I think there is a growing sentiment, especially as the community expands, that we need to be doing something about our current transportation network," Krebs said.
Krebs said she thought Lawrence residents saw how the KU bus system worked and wanted something on a larger scale.
"Right now, students are the largest beneficiaries of public transportation," Krebs said. "But it doesn't serve enough areas, and it doesn't run at enough times. Those gaps and holes could be filled by a city-wide bus system."
The survey included questions about 29 city services, 20 of which improved their ratings from last year. Public transportation received its lowest rating since the survey started
Graduate students in the public administration class Quantitative Analysis conducted a random sampling of 490 Lawrence residents between October and November of last year.
"Lawrence definitely has a traffic problem, especially during the school year," Guerry said. "Public transportation could help. I think it is always a good idea. But it would depend on how accessible it was."
Bill Guerry, Shawnee sophmore, does not have a car in Lawrence. He said he would use public transportation if it were convenient.

in 1992. This year's rating was 18 percent compared with a consistent 23 percent rating in past years.
"We have believed for a long time that Lawrence needs public transportation, but the public had not favored it," Michener said. "We've been busy creating public awareness."
Mary Michener, chair of Citizens for Public Transportation, said she was pleased with the survey's results.
Michener said that Citizens for Public Transportation had gone to the commission last June with 4,000 signatures in favor of a citywide system.
"It didn't seem to make an impression," Michener said. "We need public transportation because students are living so far out, and there are so many new neighborhoods. Lawrence is so spread out now that even the bus system we proposed in past years would no longer serve."

Man fires gun in his van behind bar on Saturday
A man held a gun to a woman's head in his van and fired the weapon into the van's roof when she pushed his arm away late Saturday night behind Johnny's Tavern, 401. West Second St., said Sgt. George Wheeler of the Lawrence Police Department.
A 28-year-old man was arrested at 11:38 p.m. Wheeler said the man told police that he and the passenger were riding in the car when an argument ensued because the woman had used a curse word.
No one was injured.
Police arrest man found with drugs in underwear
A 20-year-old Lawrence man was arrested at about 2 a.m. yesterday after police discovered a stash of crack cocaine in his underwear, said Sgt. George Wheeler of the Lawrence Police Department.
The man was stopped in the parking lot of an apartment complex in the 2400 block of Morningside Drive after police noticed he had a headlight out. Police did a pat-down search and found a small white rock wrapped in plastic in one of his pockets, Wheeler said.
Further investigation revealed several more rocks in the man's underpants. The man was arrested and held on $3,000 bond.

Family sues film makers for movie-inspired crime
WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court refused Sunday to quash a lawsuit that blames the movie Natural Born Killers for leading a couple to shoot a woman during a 1995 robbery.
The court's action was not a ruling but merely a denial of review. Stone, Time Warner Entertainment Co. and others named in the lawsuit still can seek to have the case dismissed before it reaches a jury trial.
The lawsuit, which now will move to a pretrial stage, accuses filmmaker Oliver Stone and others of intentionally inciting covacat crimes.
The 1994 movie stars Woody Harrelson and Juliette Lewis as a couple who go on a violent crime spree and kill dozens of people.
Stone, Time Warner and others involved in making the film were sued by relatives of Patsy Byers, who was shot during a March 8, 1995, robbery of the Ponchatoula, La., convenience store where she worked. Byers was left a quad rielegic, and she later died of cancer.
The family's lawyer, Joe Simpson of Amite, La., said that he planned to
focus on a quote attributed to Stone in a 1996 interview regarding the movie: "The most pacifistic people in the world said they came out of this movie and wanted to kill somebody."
The lawsuit says Sarah Edmondson shot Byers while Benjamin Darrus waited outside the Louisiana store and that the two were inspired to commit the crime by watching *Natural Born Killers*.
Intel, federal regulators settle antitrust for now
WASHINGTON — Microchip giant Intel Corp. reached a tentative agreement with federal regulators to settle claims that it illegally bullied rivals to maintain its dominance in the hightech industry.
But the announcement Sunday, on the eve of an antitrust hearing expected to last three months, came with a reminder from the Federal Trade Commission: A larger antitrust battle still looms.
Both sides refused to comment on details.
Intel's president and chief executive officer, Craig Barrett, called the agreement a win-for both sides.
"We are satisfied that the agreement gives us value for our intellectual property rights," he said in a statement.
Federal regulators wouldn't elaborate on the remaining issues under investigation mentioned in their announcement. But antitrust experts said it referred to a much broader inquiry into Intel's practices.
"This was a piece of a larger investigation where the FTC was looking into whether Intel used its market position to achieve dominance in related areas," said Kevin Arquit, a New York antitrust lawyer and former director of the FTC's Bureau of Competition.
Specifically, he said, the agency could be examining whether Intel illegally tied certain technical features to its microchips, forcing companies that buy one Intel product to use the other "bundled" with it. A similar issue is part of the Microsoft Corp. antitrust trial.
China warns U.S. against helping Taiwan defense
WASHINGTON — The Clinton administration chided Chinese authorities Sunday for warning the United States against helping Taiwan develop a defense against missile attacks.
"Instead of worrying about a decision that has not been made to deploy defensive technologies that do not yet exist, the Chinese should focus on the regional and global proliferation of missiles," State Department spokesman James P. Rubin said.
He noted the Taiwanese are assessing their own capabilities and needs, and therefore, it is too early to comment about their intentions.
On Friday, China warned that any U.S. transfer of missile defense technology to
i raawan would be the last straw and would certainly lead to serious consequences.
Bush initiates discussion about abortion policies
AUSTIN, Texas — George W. Bush, stepping gingerly into the Republican Party's most fractious debate, said yesterday he would back a constitutional amendment to outlaw most abortions if more voters supported it. But he said, America was not ready to ban abortions.
"Calling himself a "pro-life person," the Texas governor and likely presidential candidate told The Associated Press, "America is not ready to overtum Roe v. Wade because America's hearts are not right. And so, in the meantime, instead of arguing over Roe v. Wade, what we ought to do is promote policies that reduce abortions."
Wade decision abortion and a wide range of issues in his state Capitol office Sunday, as supporters filed papers in Washington forming a campaign committee. Bush has made clear that he intends to run for the Republican nomination in 2000.
The Supreme Court's 1973 Roe v. Wade decision legalized abortion.
WORLD
United States, Europe argue about trade rules
GENEVA — Accusing Washington of "declaring war" on countries that fail to toe the U.S. line on global trade rules, the European Union charged in an emergency meeting yesterday that the United States was unfaithfully waging a banana battle with its rivals.
But many countries told both trade giants that they were fed up with endless meetings of the World Trade Organization and that the United States and EU should resolve its differences and stop tying up the world agenda.
EU trade ambassador Roderick Abbott said during the meeting meeting that the United States was unjustified, unauthorized, unlawful and unacceptable when it ordered importers to deposit funds to cover pending sanctions on $520 million worth of goods imported from the EU.
The 100 percent tariff effectively doubles the price of the goods. The affected imports include textiles, as well as Louis Vuitton handbags from France, Parma ham and feta cheese from Greece, France and Italy, German coffee makers and British sweet biscuits.
The tariff intends to block those goods from the U.S. market in retaliation for $520 million in lost sales U.S. banana companies claim they've suffered because of unfair European trade barriers that discriminate in favor of bananas grown in their former Caribbean colonies.

Non-policies affect student attendance
Continued from page 1A
"The golden rule with student feedback is don't ask if you don't want to know." Rodriguez said.
Rodriguez said that it would be helpful for professors to find out what they were doing right and doing wrong before end-of-s semester evaluations, so long as their egos weren't easily bruised.
Most of the surprises in the survey for the researchers were the non-factors rather than the factors. Gender, age, off-campus vs. on-c campus residency and whether a student pays his or her own way through school did not affect attendance.
These findings contradicted previous work, McComb said.
ON CAMPUS
"Some other studies have indicated that women cut classes more than men," he said.
"There are some things that teachers can affect, and that's what further studies will focus on," he said.
McComb said that the findings were interesting, but the real value was to the faculty, who originally requested the data.

Students earn cash praise from a joint business endeavor
By Dan Curry
dcurry@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
It seems like any good idea this KU student touches turns to gold these days — and the Kansas Association for Native American Education plans to recognize that fact today in Topeka.
Dominic Ortiz, Lawrence junior and member of the Prairie Band Potawatomi Nation, will receive the Kansas Native American Student of the Year award the same day he launches his new jewelry business on his Web site, www.hotcollege Jewelry.com.
Ortiz will accept the award at noon today at the Holiday Inn West Holidome in Topeka, 605 S.W. Fairlawn Road.
Ortiz said the association would be honoring him for his ability to be a full-time student in the KU school of business while operating a full-time jewelry business.
"I was very pleased to be recognized for having accomplished these things," Ortiz said.
Ortiz and the jewelry he sells are not strangers to praise.
Ortiz said he was selected last year to meet with President Clinton before Clinton signed an Executive Order giving funds to Native American education.
During his meeting with the president, Ortiz said he gave Clinton a storyteller bracelet, for which he expressed his admiration.
In two weeks, Ortiz will travel to Billings, Mont., to deliver the keynote address for the Annual American Indian Business Leaders Conference.
Ortiz and his partner Colby Elkins, Haskell Indian Nations University junior, have been selling a variety of hand-crafted Jew
elry in Lawrence for the last two years.
They said they were excited about their new online retail jewellery store, which will include KU and K-State designs.
Ortiz said that instead of purchasing merchandise from other stores, customers will now be able to buy merchandise directly from them on the Web site.
They plan to add jewelry lines for the entire Big 12 Conference, said Elkins, who is a member of the Laguna and Caddo Nations.
"Each month we'll have new jewelry and new memorabilia added to our Web site." Ortz said. "We're no longer just a wholesaler."
Prices will range from $5.99 for a key chain to $230 for a gold-overlaid bracelet.
So far, the partners have not gotten rich from their jewelry business, but Elkins said that it was generating enough revenue to pay the bills.
The joint business venture began when Ortiz was a student at Haskell. Ortiz met Elkins, who wanted to sell the jewelry that he and his family made at Elkins' home in Grants, N.M.
Ortiz said he helped Elkins market his jewelry at Haskell before they realized that they could sell Elkins' jewelry to a larger market, including downtown retailers.
"We sold it in several local stores — ETC, Prairie Patches," Elkins said. "And then we were supplying Indian-owned casinos with a whole line of jewelry."
Ortiz handles much of the marketing and connections, and Elkins designs the jewelry. Elkins' family creates the jewelry based on his designs.

Verdict in Jasper, Texas, a small victory for hate crime intolerance
In one of the more horrifying hate crimes of recent memory, John William King was convicted of killing James Byrd Jr. King dragged Byrd with King's pickup truck until Byrd was decapitated. In a situation like this, it is simple to talk about how much hatred exists in this country. But just talking about the hatred is not enough.
The murder itself was a tragedy, but the fact that Byrd was so swiftly convicted and sentenced is a victory for the American justice system. There was a time in this country when some people in small Texas towns would not have even blinked when a black man was killed. Hate crimes by white supremacists were not uncommon 50 years ago.
Not only was King arrested, he was tried and convicted. He was sentenced to death. The small town of Jasper, Texas, banded together for prayer vigils, and people of all races
Jury should act as swiftly in upcoming trials of King's accused accomplices.
took part in the mourning. The jury that sentenced King to death had 10 white members, with the foreman being the only African American on the jury. This will be the first time a white man will be executed for killing a Black man in Texas, and only the eighth time in the United States since 1977.
The nation was shocked by this event. There was a public outcry for King's death from people who claimed to not believe in capital punishment.
A disc jockey in Washington D.C. made a crude joke following the murder. Upon hearing a Lauryn Hill song on the radio, he stopped the
track and said, "No wonder people drag them behind trucks."
This disc jockey did not make anyone laugh in his sickening attempt at humor. People called in to the station demanding that the disc jockey be fired, and he quickly was dismissed. The public will not stand for racial hatred to be taken lightly.
Yes, there still is evil and hatred in this country. It is disturbing to even imagine that people like King still exist in our society. Society has progressed to the point that the overwhelming majority of people do not take the brutal murder of a Black man any less seriously than if he were white.
Two men who allegedly were involved in the murder will be tried in the near future, and hopefully, the justice system will work just as swiftly and efficiently in those trials as well.

W when AIDS began sweeping gay men away by the thousands, lesbians and gays cried foul at the Reagan administration's refusal to acknowledge or research a disease that hit
Blood donation not only opportunity for service
Perspective
our community hard and, at first appearance, almost solely.
Don Rowland
Guest columnist
Ivanovich L.
We screamed "homophobia" as the cause. I agreed. At the same time, many in our community ask that more funding be given to the Lesbian-Bisexual-Gay-Transgender (LBGT) community because AIDS hits our community harder than most. Some believe we
don't get funds because we are queer. It
part. I would agree with them.
What I disagree with is that agencies that collect blood are homophobic or that they 'restrict' people from being good citizens because of sexual orientation.
Opportunities for LBGTs to give to their communities abound. Anyone, regardless of sexual orientation, can find outlets from which they can be caring and generous citizens.
Unfortunately, when it comes to the blood supply, we as members of the gay men's community must accept the fact that we are not welcome. It is not because we are not valuable to our communities but because the restriction saves lives.
Tests for AIDS are very accurate but not infallible. Although national numbers show that gay men are the only group to decrease HIV infection rates, male-to-male sex in Kansas is responsible for 80 percent of HIV infections, and heterosexual transmission is at 11 percent.
That is significant and worth using as a restrictive measure. I hate it that it is.
Also significant at the University of Kansas is that the infection rates for the population under the age of 30, including gay men, are higher than the average.
Perhaps these numbers don't seem significant to the average undergraduate. They do to me. As a 36-year-old gay man, I have seen many friends die. I have stood beside 18 caskets and looked into the faces of friends whom I love. That is one friend lost for each year of this horrible epidemic.
1 remember the gay bars and ghettoes 10 years ago. They were filled with frail and battered bodies of men barely living, wait-
I was a corpsman in the Navy at that time, and I saw many people of all lifestyles, ages and races dying of AIDS. Many of them contracted the disease from transfusions.
Today, most U.S. citizens under 30 have not seen such suffering and devastation. AIDS to many of them is a manageable, nonlife-threatening disease to ignore. They are misinformed.
The rise of unprotected sex among gay men emphasizes that type of misconception. Of the people I know who have had sex, I do not know one gay man, not one person of any sexual orientation, who has never had unprotected sex. I am sure there are some, but I just don't know them.
Statistics show these numbers are rising for all groups. That is frightening.
With these facts in perspective, consider another point. The LBGT community has asked for significant recognition as a group hit hard by AIDS. Research indicates that lesbians suffer higher rates of breast cancer. We have also called for funding to research this frightening fact. It does not make us homophobic to recognize the risks our people face. It does not mean that recognizing these risks makes heterosexuals and the "establishment" homophobic.
If HIV tests are not 100 percent accurate, if gay men still have high infection rates, if young men — both straight and gay — are showing that they do not understand the actual risks of unprotected sex, if being a sexually active gay man is not the only restricting question when giving blood, and if countless lives are saved because of current restrictions, is it truly homophobic to restrict gay men from giving blood if they have had sex with another man since 1977? I say no. I want to say yes, but I cannot.
If my finding a different way of contributing to my community is saving lives, then I will refrain from giving blood until the epidemic has ended. If anyone were denied blood based on sexual activities or orientation, I would fight the injustice with every ounce of my energy.
Rowland works with the Student Development Center as the Lesbian-Bisexual-Gay-Transgender liaison to the University of Kansas.

that I've been back to see have learned more about diversity than I have during my entire life.
At the very beginning, I thought, "What's the big deal?" Now I know that it is a big deal. There are some people around here that think it is such a big deal that there should be a course taught about it. We live in a world of information and misinformation, and a world that puts a lot of stock in the value of learning and education. There are a zillion things to learn in a zillion situations.

My question to you today is: Can they all be learned in a classroom? Or better, should they all be learned in the classroom?
In my estimation, most subjects that are taught in classrooms are usually dissected, analyzed by their parts and put back together again to demonstrate that they can be reproduced. Can love be put in a test tube? Should enjoying a sunset be dissected?
Learning diversity has a certain aesthetic quality that cannot be produced or reproduced in the classroom setting. Some would say that diversity just needs to be presented in a classroom to force the student to deal with the issues. Why try to cook up something instant when the recipe requires a slow cook method?
Also to force people to take a class on this topic is the same as saying, "We don't trust you to get this on your own, so we will make sure you get this." All that will be accomplished is that students will take the
At the heart of college education is not all the details of information that we learn from day to day, but the processes we acquire in the assimilation of information. We learn how to think. We learn how to solve problems. And, we learn how to get along with people.
Do we learn these things in one semester?
No, it takes the whole time we are here plus the rest of our lives. So it is with diversity.
The process is like the steady unfolding of a beautiful rose. Do we stand in front of a rosebud and watch it bloom? The process takes too long. But one day we walk by, and wow, it's there in all of its splendor.
Learning to love and accept people for who they are, not their color, sex, or religion, is a beautiful process that takes time. Love and acceptance, something we all crave, are products of the heart, not something we learn with our minds. Learning how to love and accept people is not something to be taught in a classroom, but it is something to be discovered within ourselves.
So, how do we learn diversity? I believe it is like coming into a dark room after being in blinding sunlight; you can't see anything at first. Then, as your eyes adjust, you start seeing things you didn't see before. The important idea is that learning diversity is a process that takes time. Like anything you learn during a period of time, it stays with you. It becomes a part of who you are.
information and put it on the back burner, and then, when life brings along some situations that require diversity thinking, they will remember what they learned in class. Or, will they? I present to you that they will not. They will remember what their parents taught them, and they will remember what they learned on their own.

Program targets students who want to help
Some KU students are ready to make plans for future volunteer experiences that would give them the opportunity to be involved within the community.
Last night, Elsworth Hall and the Center for Community Outreach sponsored "Into the Streets" with those student volunteers in mind.
More than 30 students attended the interactive program and informal discussion of volunteer experiences in Elsworth's main lobby.
"We can learn more through our service than we do in our classes," said Chris Hess, Center for Community Outreach co-director and Wichita junior.
Students said that volunteering came in many forms—from helping in a school to picking up trash off the streets.

Students also said that volunteering was a valuable experience even though it sometimes was difficult to find time to serve the community.
Volunteers ready to get involved
Kristie Van Waart, Bellevue, Neb., sophomore who volunteers with a youth student council, said that students had to make time to volunteer but that it was definitely worth it.
Students said that volunteer opportunities were a way to meet people with similar goals.
"Volunteer adding names and faces to the statistics," he said.

"There are so many different types of volunteer work from a week-long service project to writing a letter," said Corey Snyder, Topeka sophomore who attended the discussion.
Chris Hockley, Overland Park junior and volunteer at Jubilee Cafe, 1011 Vermont St., which serves breakfast to the homeless, said that getting involved with projects and problems made it easier to understand social issues.
Students said that their volunteer experiences could be humorous, educational and sometimes challenging, but they always were rewarding.

The Center for Community Outreach helps KU students find ways to volunteer within the Lawrence community. Some of the programs they sponsor are: Alternative Spring Break, where students spend their spring break volunteering; Jayhawk Connection, where upperclassmen advise freshmen on everything from majors to activities; and Natural ties, where students can work with people who have disabilities.
"People don't think of Lawrence as needing volunteers because it is a smaller town, but it has the same needs as any town," said Erika Nutt, Center for Community Outreach codirector and Wichita senior.
Laura Gastinger, event coordinator and Jefferson City, Mo., sophomore, said that she planned the program because many Ellsworth residents were interested in community service.
"This gives them a chance to tell people about their experience and find additional opportunities to volunteer on campus or for the local community," she said.

Clinton visits hurricane victims
President denies pleas to delay deportations in aftermath of storm
The Associated Press
MANAGUA, Nicaragua — On a mission of hope and solidarity with Central Americans battered by Hurricane Mitch, President Clinton knelt Sunday at a spot where the horror of 2,000 mud slide victims was captured by a single impression in cracked mud.
"The imprint of the child," Clinton mouthed as he and Nicaraguan President Arnoldo Aleman placed flowers beside a wooden cross where a little girl's bones poked the earth.
Casitas Volcano showed the mud's deadly path of last October.
In the near distance, a gash on
"No picture cing of seeing, the outline of that small child's body by her grave and seeing the remnants of her skeleton," Clinton said.
States illegally became eligible for deportation. He turned down pleas for an extension of the halt in deportations that was instituted after last fall's devastating storm. The stay in deportations exmired yesterday.
His visit began just as 15 , 000 Guatemalans and Salvadorans who were in the United
124
But Clinton's first stop — the littered ruins of the only home left standing at the site of the Oct. 30 Casitas landslide that buried 2,000 people — underscored that many Central American immigrants have nothing to go home to.
To return them now would cause tragic problems of stability, warned Salvadoran President Armando Calderon Sol. Calderon pleaded for the United States to reconsider an extension.
White House spokesman Michael Hammer said the region was capable of beginning to receive its nationals. Deportations are not expected to begin immediately, he added.
In a Posoltega, Nicaragua
schoolyard, Clinton met survivors still living in plastic tents four months after Mitch.
Jose Ronaldo Romero, 40, a cane worker who earns about $53 a month, said he wanted Clinton's help getting a coffin for his father-in-law and eyeglasses for his daughter Escarilina, 9, whose vision was damaged when she and her mother were buried in mud.
Hammer said Clinton's trip was intended to provide hope to Mitch's victims and prevent political instability.
"Without rebuilding schools, homes, roads, crops and jobs, it can lead to despair and corruption." Hammer said.
Clinton's $956 million emergency aid package Sunday remained tangled in domestic spending politics on Capitol Hill.
Supreme Court denies McVeigh appeal
Convicted murderer claims biased jury, media-tainted trial
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Timothy McVeigh, sentenced to die for the 1995 Oklahoma City bombing that killed 168 people and injured hundreds more, lost a Supreme Court appeal Sunday.
The court refused to hear McVeigh's arguments that his trial was tainted by jury misconduct and news reports that he confessed to the bombing, the worst such attack on U.S. soil.
His lawyer, Richard Burr, expressed disappointment, saying, they had hoped the Supreme Court would be able to rise above the terrible human consequences of the case in evaluating McVeigh's appeal.
"It is so easy to say 'no' to Timothy McVeigh." Burr added.
McVeigh was convicted of first-
degree murder, conspiracy and weapons-related charges in the April 19, 1995, bombing of the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building. The bombing could be heard miles away, and television screens soon were filled with stunning images of the shattered building and rescue workers looking for survivors.
A federal appeals court last fall upheld his convictions and death sentence in the deaths of eight federal law enforcement officers. Oklahoma prosecutors have said they plan to charge McVeigh with first-degree murder in state court for the deaths of the other 160 bombing victims.
McVeigh still can pursue a new round of appeals challenging the constitutionality of his federal prosecution. Under a 1996 federal law, inmates have up to a year to file such an appeal.
scale when the crime is unspeakable and public outrage is great.
The appeal
His Supreme Court appeal said that the 10th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruling that upheld his conviction sent a message that the rules of law may be applied on a sliding
The appeal said pretrial news reports of a purported confession by McVeigh to his lawyers created a serious threat to his fair-trial rights. Four jurors indicated in pretrial questioning that they had seen the reports.
P
Justice
McVeigh: Sentenced to die for Oklahoma City bombing.
Department lawyers said the bombing caused extraordinary harm and that courts took extraordinary steps to ensure McVeigh a fair trial, including disqualifying the original judge and moving the trial to Denver.
Prospective jurors were examined thoroughly for signs of bias, and news reports never established that
McVeigh actually confessed, prosecutors said.
At McVeigh's trial in 1997, prosecutors said he and co-defendant Terry Nichols carried out the bombing in revenge for the April 19, 1993, deaths of about 80 people in the siege at the Branch Davidian compound near Waco, Texas.
Prosecutors said McVeigh, now 30, chose the Oklahoma City building because he believed people responsible for the Waco siege worked there and because the building was an easy target. Nichols was convicted of conspiracy in a separate trial and sentenced to life in prison.
McVeigh is being held under maximum security at a federal prison in Florence, Colo.
A federal death row and execution chamber have been built at a prison in Terre Haute, Ind. The facility has not been activated and the 19 other inmates currently under federal death sentences are being held in prisons around the country as they pursue court appeals.

DiMaggio's character was unparalleled
Seth Hoffman
sports @ kansan.com
Once in a while, a person makes such an impression on us that when he leaves us, he takes a part of us with him. Joe DiMaggio was one such man. He left an indelible impression on millions of people in the U.S., including myself, though many of us never saw him play.
It's hard to pick out a single reason why DiMaggio is more a part of our culture than any other player.
Other sports figures married celebrities, but only Joe married Marilyn Monroe. Other baseball players had extended hitting streaks, but only Joe did it for 56 games. Some have even
played in more All-Star Games, but Ernest Hemingway and Simon and Garfunkel never wrote about Reggie Jackson or Nolan Ryan.
But the innumerable feats on the diamond were secondary to DiMaggio's appeal. More impressive than any hitting streak was the quiet dignity with which he carried himself.
weekly delivery of flowers to her grave. That was the dignity he carried with him to his death.
It is hard to imagine DiMaggio addressing the crowd mid-game after breaking the hitting-streak record or climbing into the stands to hug any人. Instead, he maintained a low profile, and when Monroe died, though they'd divorced years before, he ordered a
In November, when he was drifting in and out of a coma, news reports gave his up-to-the-minute condition, the first words out of his mouth were orders to quit reporting on his every breath.
This summer, while in New York on vacation, my family got a glimpse of this private man. My brother, father and I spent a warm afternoon watching the Yankees trample the Chicago White Sox at Yankee Stadium. For the three of us, baseball fans before all else, it was a perfect way to spend the day.
After the game, we rushed to St. Patrick's Cathedral to meet my mother and sister for five o'clock Mass. We made it just as the service was beginning and quickly found a seat near the front.
Soon after church began, my brother walked out on a fruitless search for a public bathroom in the cathedral. It took him a long time to return, so every few minutes I would turn to see if he was lost at the back of the church.
The first time I turned I saw an older man in sunglasses sitting several rows behind us. Strange, I thought, for an oldtimer to wear-Ray Bans in church, but it was New York. A second turn a few minutes later revealed that this was no ordi-
nal old timer: It was Joe DiMaggio.
My first instinct was to inform my father, sitting at the end of the pew, about Joe's attendance at St. Pat's, but truthfully, I didn't want him to follow the collection plate back and ask for an autograph. Instead, I whispered to the rest of my family, "Joe DiMaggio's sitting behind us. Don't tell Dad." They all understood the gravity of the situation and kept quiet.
My father wasn't expecting anything out of the ordinary when he walked

Five women's teams from Big 12 to play in NCAA Tourney
The Women's Big 12 Conference believed that its play had spoken for itself, and the NCAA selection committee was listening.
By Matt James
mjames@kansan.com
Kansas swriter
Prior to the Big 12 Tournament, only the top three teams had posted 20 or more wins, and Kansas coach Marian Washington was worried the league would only receive three bids.
Sunday the committee chose five Big 12 schools to participate in the field of 64, including Nebraska, 21-11 overall, and Texas (16-11), whose 10-6 conference record outweighed the fact that the Longhorns didn't win a game in the Big 12 Tournament. Those two joined league frontrunners Texas Tech, Iowa State and Kansas to represent what the selection committee's statistical formula called the second best conference in the nation.
"I think we're deserving of more than that," she said. "Any great conference with the kind of parity we have is going to beat up on each other. The committee has to realize that this is a great conference."
The SEC and Big 12 will no doubt continue to be compared as the top two conference's play head to head twice in the first round. Nebraska squares off against Kentucky and Texas plays Auburn.
Only the Southeastern Conference was rated higher, receiving a record eight tournament bids.
Iowa State and Texas Tech face underdogs Santa Clara and Stephen F. Austin, respectively.
According to Bernadette V. McGlade, chairwoman of the NCAA Women's Basketball
Committee, the selection committee put considerable stock in the rating percentage index, a system based on winning percentage and schedule strength.
"When we total our RPI, it is not based on the national polls and some of the info that the public sees all the time," she said on ESPN's Selection Sunday show.
Iowa State was named the No. 4 seed in the Midwest region; Texas landed in the East region as a 12 seed; Nebraska was placed in the West region as an 11 seed, while Texas Tech and Kansas are the second and ninth seeds in the Midwest region.
The RPI rankings, which listed the Lady Raiders fourth in the nation, did not help Tech wrestle the final top seed away from Connecticut, which claimed the No.1 spot in the Mideast.
"There wasn't one major difference, and there were other possible teams in the hunt like Colorado State. We took all the info we had in consideration to make the pick. All the teams in the hunt had great overall records and had won or were in the hunt to win their conference tournaments."
The Kansas players needed no reminder of how tough their conference schedule was and said they are glad to be facing a new opponent in Marquette.
McGlade said the decision was a tough one.
“五 Big 12 teams made it in so that says a lot about our conference as a whole,” said sophomore Jaclyn Johnson. “The second half of our season hasn't been the greatest, but we're working through that now. So hopefully we'll get back to playing the old Kansas basketball.”

Resurgent Earl treks home for tournament

Forward Lester Earl speaks with the media about his upcoming trip to his home state. Earl found out yesterday that the Jayhawks would be playing Evansville in the first round of the NCAA tournament Friday at the Louisiana Superdome in New Orleans. Earl is from nearby Baton Rouge, La. Photo by Graham K.Johnson/KANSAN
When the Kansas men's basketball team learned it was going to New Orleans for first round of the NCAA tournament, no one was more excited than Lester Earl.
"I'm very happy. I heard New Orleans was an option and that's all I've been talked about," said Earl, a junior forward from Baton Rouge, La. "I can't believe it. I'm speechless right now. I miss the food. I miss my family. It's emotional right now."
Earl's family may be the only people in Louisiana who will be welcoming him back with open arms. The 6-foot-8 junior transferred to Kansas from Louisiana State University after playting half of his freshman season for the Tigers. An investigation into his recruiting resulted in LSU being placed on probation, and Earl can expect a multitude of negative stories to be published about him during this week.
"I am not concerned. The media will do what they want to," Earl said. "We will focus on the task at hand and on winning the first game."
Kansas coach Roy Williams said that he wasn't concerned with the possible response in Louisiana either.
"New Orleans will be a good first round site, and the people will support the teams that are there," Williams said. "There probably will be a little side bar attention to it, but it's such old news hopefully the writers will be intelligent enough not to cover something they've covered five million times already."
But how will Earl handle the responsibility of playing host in his home state for his out-of-town teammates?
"I'm going to show them all the good stuff that is down there," Earl said. "I'm going to try to get them on some catfish. I know they're tired of eating steaks right now."
At least one dayhawk said he was ready to experience the authentic cuisine of the Biz Easy.
"I've never had real Cajun food, but I guess I'll try
it," sophomore center Eric Chenowith said. "It's going to be all basketball there, though."
And basketball is what Earl has finally been able to play after undergoing surgery four times since high school and missing 11 games this season because of injuries. The lanky forward scored 11 points in the Big 12 Conference tournament final and saw action in the last eight games.
"I'm just trying to make a contribution to this team," said Earl, who averages five points and 3.6 rebounds per game for the Jayhawks. "I feel like I'm regaining my health little by little, and it's my turn to do as much as I can."
Kansas senior T.J. Pugh, who has also had to battle through numerous injuries this season, said Earl had been an inspiration all season.
"To come off the bench and do the things that Lester has done this year, you have to admire," Pugh said. "I think Lester's adopted the attitude where he wants to contribute, and he wants to help us, and he does that in a number of ways.
"He goes out and plays as hard as he can, and he's all over the place for as long as he's in there. That gives us a big boost. And a lot of times that attitude is contagious."

reastistically, the odds are against it. Neither team will make it past round two.
Here are my reasons.
The women have played tremendous basketball and managed to win 22 games without senior starting guard Suzi Rayman, the team's only three-point threat, and forward Nikki
White, who the Jayhawks needed for depth and power under the basket.
The women received a No.9 seed from the tournament committee, an extremely low seed for a team with a No.25 national ranking.
Despite the injuries, the Jayhawks have soared, finishing third in the Big 12 Conference and staying ranked for half the season.
In round one, Kansas faces No. 8 seed Marquette, a 21-7 team that won a weak Conference U.S.A. and was not ranked in the top 25.
Kansas can get by Marquette.
The problem is the Jayhawks must play the winner of the game between No.1 seed Purdue and No.16 seed Oral Roberts.
Here are some crib notes on the Boilermakers: They are ranked No. 1 in the country, are 28-1 overall, earlier in the season they defeated three-time defending national champion Tennessee and the games are being played on Purdue's home court, where Purdue is undefeated this season.
Kansas and Purdue will meet in Round Two and that does not bode
Last year's Kansas team was more consistent, scored more points and was a legitimate shooting threat from the outside.
well for the Jayhawks.
This year's team is not these things, and that is the reason Kansas will lose.
Things don't look much better for them.
The fact that Kansas won the Big 12 Conference Tournament and has won six of its last seven game, indicates the Jayhawks are peaking at just the right time — something they have failed to do in years past.
Kansas must play the winner of the first round matchup between No. 3 seed Kentucky and No.14 seed New Mexico State.
That is why the sixth-seeded Jayhawks will have no problem beating first round opponent Evansville.
Kentucky will win and the Jayhawks, for the second time this season, will have to face the defending national champion Wildcats.
But like the women, the men will face a daunting second round team.
And Kansas is its own worst enemy. One day, guard Jef Boschese hits five three-pointers; the next, he can barely hit a shot from anywhere on the floor. One game, center Eric Chenowith scores 20 points; the next, he scores five. And Kenny Gregory and Ryan Robertson are enigmas, wavering between scoring and watching.
1
The Wildcats easily handled Kansas in the first meeting in Chicago, grabbing a 63-45 victory. And although Kentucky has lost eight games since then and struggled much like Kansas, the Wildcats are a better team.
Kentucky may not be the best team in the country, but it does not hurt that its senior class is 18-2 in NCAA Tournament play and owns two national championships. That experience goes a long way.

On Saturday, the women's team smacked the Nebraska Cornhuskers 22-0, while the mens' secondstring team tied Nebraska 17-17 at Westwick Rugby Complex in Lawrence.

Low seeds challenge Big 12
The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — With five schools in the NCAA tournament, but none seeded higher than sixth, some Big 12 Conference teams find themselves in the unusual role of underdog.
The past two tournaments, Kansas entered as a top seed, only to exit in the early rounds in stunning upsets.
This year Kansas is seeded sixth in the Midwest region. If the Jayhawks win their opener Friday against Evansville, they face a possible second-round game against the third seed Kentucky.
The Wildcats won an early season matchup against Kansas 63-45 and have been picked by several analysts as a favorite to repeat as NCAA champions.
Rnere have been some unbelievable underdogs that win one game," said coach Roy Williams, whose tournament teams lost to Rhode Island and Arizona the past two years. "Some weird things happen. Maybe we can be a part of some weird things."
Texas, the seventh seed in the East, is coming off a Big 12 tournament loss to Oklahoma State after winning its first Big 12 regular season championship.
The Longhorns play 10th-seeded
12 CONFERENCE
Purdue on Friday in Boston. Texas is in the same region as Duke, the top seed and the No.1 team in the nation and also faces a potential second-round game against the second seed, Miami.
The long odds are just fine with Texas coach Rick Barnes.
"In tournament play, the best teams don't always win." Barnes said. "I think a couple years ago, Kansas was the best team in college basketball, and they got knocked out of it. In tournament play, anything can happen."
Other first-round pairings have Missouri seeded eighth in the West and playing New Mexico in Denver; Oklahoma State seeded ninth in the South, playing Syracuse in Indianapolis; and Oklahoma seeded 13th in the Midwest, playing Arizona in Milwaukee.
the outcome of Missouri's game Thursday against New Mexico could hinge on whether standout center Kenny Thomas is in the lineup. The Lobos' leading scorer and rebounder suffered a pulled groin in the WAC tournament and did not play in the team's loss Saturday to Utah.
Missouri coach Norm Stewart said if Thomas played, much of the Tiger defense would be centered on the first-team, all-conference center.
Oklahoma State used three straight Big 12 tournament wins to earn its postseason berth. Looking beyond the first round, the Cowboys would be paired against top-seeded Auburn in the South regional if both teams win their first round games.
you're talking to While Stutton said he'd prefer being in a new seed, Oklahoma coach Kevin Sampson was mystified why his Sooners dropped to number 13. Sampson said he felt all of the tour-
"I personally think eight and nine (seeds) is about as bad as you can get," said Cowboys coach Eddie Sutton. "Even if you're fortunate enough to win that first game, you're facing that first seed."
Sampson said he felt all of the tournament teams from the Big 12 had comparable seasons and deserved similar seedings. The Sooners play the four seed in Arizona on Friday.
"We're kind of used to being the underdog, and that's a role we don't mind," Sampson said. "Other than Duke and maybe Stanford and Michigan State, I don't know that there are any teams where you say, 'Whoa, I don't want to play them.'"
K-State to miss NCAA tournament
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Kansas State fans might have hoped that a 20-win season and an upset of No. 24 Missouri in the Big 12 tournament would translate into the Wildcats' first NCAA bid since the 1995-96 season.
The Associated Press
But coach Tom Asbury said he knew better — and he was right.
The Wildcats, 20-game winners for the first time in five years under Asbury, accepted their second straight bid to the National Invitation Tournament on Sunday night.
"I've said all along that we had to win the tournament to get in (to the NCAA field). We've known that for a couple of weeks now." Asbury said in a conference call from Manhattan, Kan.
Kansas State (20-12) will open tomorrow at home against Texas
Christian (19-10) and could meet another Big 12 team in the second round. The winner will play either Nevada-Las Vegas or Nebraska on March 15 or 16.
"It's not where we'd prefer to be, but the NIT is a quality tournament with a long history. I'm sure the players will be excited." Asbury said. "Given the choice between playing and not playing, I think I know which they'd take.
"We've still got some kids who want to put their stamp on this team. 'I think they'd like to be remembered as a solid team — a good team, even if it wasn't good enough to be considered for the NCAA tournament."
Kansas State's last NCAA bid came after a 17-12 season. The difference is in how the Wildcats placed in conference play.
They were fourth in the Big Eight in 1996 but tied for seventh
in the Big 12 this season before beating Texas A&M and upsetting Missouri 84-74 in the post-season tournament.
"They weren't going to take us over a team (Nebraska) that had won 10 league games," Asbury said.
C
The Wildcats put up season lows for points and shooting percentage in a 59-39 first-round loss to North Carolina State.
"We wouldn't go back to that game at all, even if it had been a positive experience," Asbury said. "With two and a half days to get ready, we don't have time to look back. We have to figure out TCU."

forward toward communion and crossed paths with DiMaggio. Dad looked, took a step, looked again, and stopped momentarily, then half-sprinted back to the new.
He was thrilled. Being the hardcore tourists that we were, we had an assortment of Yankees pennants with us in church, and he began sorting through them.
"You are not going to ask him for an autograph," my mother half-asked, half-ordered. His search for a suitable pen was his only answer because DiMaggio and his travelling companion, Morris Engelberg were heading
out the si lowed the borg had a
but Dad caught them quickly.
He asked Engelberg, "Do you mind if I ask your friend for an autograph?"
The Yankee Clipper heard the question, shook his head no, and continued walking. My father, obviously disappointed, turned to walk away, but with a last look back, saw DiMaggio walking back toward him.
He took the pennant and pen into the same hands that hit in 56 straight games and wore 10 World Series rings. He signed the pennant with flourished penmanship that students no longer
loved in my life that she said:
"You've got to have respect." As if
to say, "What are you doing
following me out of church?"
"Yes, sir, my wife told me not to come out here," my father replied.
"She was right." DiMaggio said, and then with a wink and his trademark smile, "But don't bawl her out too much." And with that he walked away.
Two months later, he was in the hospital, and now eight months later, he's gone forever. I hope that wherever he is he took some of our gratitude with him.

In midcentury, when baseball stood above all American sports, Joe DiMaggio symbolized what fans loved about the game. Fifty years later, he had lost little of his star quality.
"He was to people all over the world what a baseball player was supposed to be like," former Dodgers manager Tommy Lasorda said of DiMaggio, who died Monday at age 84.
"If you said to God, 'Create someone who was what a baseball player should be,' God would have created Joe D'Maggio. ... And he did."
Tim McCarver, who spent two decades as a catcher and is now one of baseball's preeminent broadcasters added, "The very mention of his name personifies class, dignity, elegance and professionalism, both on and off the field."
To those who knew him and to those who only admired him from afar, DiMaggio was the quintessential American hero.
"This son of Italian immigrants gave every American something to believe in," President Clinton said. "He became the very symbol of American grace, power and skill... I have no doubt that when future generations look back at the best of America in the 20th century, they will think of the Yankee Clipper and all that he achieved."
Mark McGwire, himself a larger-than-life figure after hitting 70 home runs last season, said he was saddened by DMiagio's death.
"He was one of the best in the game," said McGwire, who never got a chance to meet DiMaggio. "It's a big loss for the game and for life in general."
DiMaggio was a precursor of the modern athlete. In 1948, he signed the first $100,000 contract, and the paper
and pen from that deal went on display yesterday at the Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, N.Y.
And like Michael Jordan a half-century later, he was the most credible commercial spokesman in sports.
He was the reason many Italian Americans in New York rooted for the Yankees, just as African Americans rooted for the Brooklyn Dodgers because they made Jackie Robinson the first African American in the major leagues.
"In this century, there have been three baseball players who transcended their sport to become part of American legend," Vice President Al Gore said. "Where Babe Ruth was known for his power and Jackie Robinson was known for his courage, Joe DiMaggio was known for dignity and grace."
That was evident to DiMaggio's fellow players.
"In 1951, while I was still in high school, I went to New York to play in the Hearst All-Star game," recalled Al Kaline, who went on to join DiMaggio in the Hall of Fame. "They took us through the locker room, and Joe was sitting in front of his locker. I stopped and shook his hand. It was like meeting a god."
Ted Williams, who played in the Boston outfield next to DiMaggio's brother, Dom, was the contemporary most often likened to the Yankee Clipper.
"There is no one Ted Williams admired, respected and envied more than Joe DiMaggio." Williams said.
To his contemporaries, he was much more than a great player, he was role model.
"I idolized him for what he represented. He was a winner, a champion and a true icon," said Lasorda.

THE STUDENT NEWSPAPER OF THE UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS
1996 KU graduate murdered close to her NYC apartment
(USPS 650-640)
By Sarah Hale
shale@kansan.com
Kansan campus editor
Professors and friends mourned the death of Amy Watkins yesterday, a former KU student who was murdered near her New York apartment Monday night.
Watkins, a 26-year-old 1996 KU graduate, was stabbed in the back about 9:45 p.m. on her way to a grocery store in Brooklyn, said Det. Robert Samuel of the New York Police Department.
Watkins was found on the sidewalk about one block from her apartment with a kitchen knife sticking out of her back, Samuel said. She died about an hour later at Brooklyn Jewish Hospital.
Samuel said an unknown person approached Watkins from behind and stabbed her. He said robbery had been the motive and property was missing from Watkins.
Watkins graduated with a bachelor's degree in social welfare from the University and was attending the
Hunter College School of Social Work in New York.
Alice Lieberman, a KU associate professor of social welfare, said that Watkins was a remarkable person and student. She said she taught Watkins in class and had written a letter of reference to Hunter College.
"Amy was everybody's friend," Lieberman said. "She was big enough and good enough to embrace the world. New York was a place for her to make a mark as an activist."
Lieberman said Watkins often sat in the middle of the classroom so that she could talk with everybody.
"That was so symbolic to me," she said. "Amy spanned the boundaries as a friend."
Abbe Bassin, Watkins' friend of about six years, said they met while taking classes at the University.
"We met at school and instantly became friends," said Bassin, who also graduated in 1996. "We lived near each other on Kentucky Street, and she'd drag me jogging."
Bassin, who volunteered with Watkins in the Israeli Army in 1995, said
she last saw her about two weeks ago.
"We slept at a friend's apartment and had a spa night," Bassin said. "We did facials, relaxed in the Jacuzetti and went jogging in Central Park in the morning. And then we said goodbye."
Bassin said Watkins was devoted to women's issues and was working with oppressed communities for her field work.
"Amy had an incredible spirit inside and out," Bassin said. "She was smart, had a great sense of humor and a natural ability for social work."
Watkins moved to Lawrence in 1990 from Topeka where she attended high school. Tom Hutton, director of University Relations, said she had lived in Lewis Hall and was not involved in any organizations.
Bassin said Watkins worked at Sunflower Outdoor and Bike Shop, 844 Massachusetts St., in college, and she
"She loved Lawrence — she really did," Bassin said. "She was not a typical New Yorker. As soon as people met her, they'd say, 'You're not from around here.'"
visited Lawrence and her friends last summer.
Det. Samuel said that New York police still were investigating the homicide and that they did not have any suspects.
He said that Crimesetter vans combed the neighborhood last night and that police were offering $1,000 rewards leading to any information.
Samuel said Watkins' neighborhood, Prospect Heights, was generally a nice area of town. He said crime rates had been decreasing steadily.
Watkins is survived by her mother, Margaret, of St. Louis; her father, Larry, of New York, who was a former Western Civilization instructor at the University; and one brother.
Her family could not be reached for comment.
Funeral arrangements have not been finalized because of the investigation. Bassin said a service probably would be offered in New York on Friday morning before she is buried in St. Louis.

Professors to tour Kansas in May
Trek offers opportunity to see less-traveled areas

Forty University of Kansas professors seeking to learn more about their surroundings will go on the Wheat State Whirlwind Tour this May.

erm Spiridiglhozi, assistant dean of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, Janet Payne, assistant tour director, and Nini Negash Case, tour productions, presented faculty members who applied to go on the tour with loaves of bread decorated with wheat and sunflowers yesterday.
Chancellor Robert Hemenway started the program three years ago. He based it on a similar program from his previous university, the University of Kentucky.
"The faculty gets a chance to see Kansas, to meet the people of Kansas, to see the places their students come from," he said.
The tour will start May 24 and continue until May 28. During that period, it will visit Independence, Wichita, Dodge City, Garden City, Colby, Goodland, Hays and Sedan, which Payne described as a typical Kansas town.
Hemenway said the previous two trips had spurred interesting research and projects by professors from different departments who met on the trip.
"You don't always get to talk to people in other disciplines than your own," Hemenway said.
Deborah "Misty" Gerner, associate professor of political science and government, beams as she receives a loaf of sunflower bread, which is her "ticket" to attend the Wheat State Whirlwind Tour. Gerner, along with 39 other professors will take the May 24-28 tour through Kansas, visiting historic spots and learning about the economy, geography and anthropology of the state.

All of these benefits help professors when they return to the classroom, he said. By providing these sorts of opportunities to help the faculty, Hemenway said the administration was demonstrating it's commitment.
Payne said the trip would avoid using Interstate 70, keeping away from places that most people already have seen.
"We want to show that we put our money where our mouth is, that we support teaching," he said.
"You have to get pretty far out of the way to get to some of the places that we're going to go," she said.

Paul Atchley, who will go on the trip with his

"I have no idea what to expect from this, so I'm going to in go with no preconceptions," he said.

Student lobbyists to discuss University issues with legislators

Students will be lobbying state legislators in Topeka today for the second time this semester.
This time, Student Legislative Awareness Board members, student senators and other students will discuss only KU-related issues such as funding for child care, lower tuition, financial aid, faculty salary
increases and a state-sponsored college savings plan.
Korb Maxwell, SLAB legislative director, said that SLAB originally had planned on 100 students participating but that only about 20 would be attending because many students had midterms this week.
"it's hard to get students in the capitol because they're busy with their first job of being students," he said.
But, Maxwell said, student lobbies will attend about 25 appointments with key legislators. He said they would hand out Jayhawk lapel pins and notecovers outlining important issues to each legislator's office.
"We'll focus on the important players and meet with all the rank and file," Maxwell said.
Kevin Yoder, student body president and SLAB chief lobbyist, said students would attempt a hard sell through a direct and persuasive approach.
"But we'll also have a soft, subliminal sell with the laplel pins," he said. "We'll end up

Stuck elevator thwarts attempted burglary
Police didn't have to work hard to catch the man who burglarized a mansion about 7 a.m. Sunday in the 1,600 block of West Eight Street — they just had to pry open the doors to the home's elevator, where he was stuck.
The owner of the home awakened that morning and noticed when he went downstairs that the lights he had turned off the night before were on, said Sgt. George Wheeler of the Lawrence Police Department.
He was investigating the rest of the house when he heard a voice coming from the elevator. When police arrived they opened the elevator doors and found an 18-year-old Lawrence resident inside. Wheeler said.
Police said the man probably entered the house through the basement. The man was arrested and held on $2,500 bond.

Bad weather causes meeting cancellation
Because of extreme weather conditions in Washington, D.C., the 1 p.m. flight of three Lawrence city commissioners, Bonnie Augustine, Erv Hodges and Mayor Marty Kennedy, was canceled, causing city officials to cancel last night's Lawrence City Commission meeting.
The commissioners were supposed to arrive at Kansas City International Airport at 5 p.m.
Gayle Martin, communications coordinator for the city, said yesterday's agenda would be postponed until Tuesday's meeting at 301 Riverfront Plaza.
With only two remaining commissioners, last night's meeting could not have had a quorum, which is necessary according to a city ordinance.

The University of Kansas Student Development Center will hold an open house today from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. at 22 Strong Hall.
Mary Ann Rasnak, director of the center, said she wanted to let students know about her program's resources, including academic assistance, a tutor referral system and the Emily Taylor Women's Resource Center. The Center moved into this location at the beginning of the year.
Rasnak said there was one other reason that students should drop in: free food.
Rasnak said she wanted the open house to let students know that they were always welcome to come in and ask any question.

Espionage investigation causes scientist's firing
WASHINGTON — The case of a Chinese-American computer scientist who was fired after a three-year espionage investigation is part of a broader pattern of security lapses at federal weapons labs, the chairman of a key House committee said yesterday.
The scientist, Wen Ho Lee, was dismissed Monday from his job at the Los Alamos National Laboratory in New Mexico because of reported security violations. He has not been arrested, nor charged with a crime.
Details, including the espionage investigation of Lee, are described in a yet-to-be-classified report, said Rep. Christopher Crox, chairman of a select committee investigating U.S. military and commercial dealings with China.
He said there was wide disagreement between his panel and the White House about how much of the report to make public, with the administration wanting to keep large portions classified.
Diet and breast cancer unrelated, study says
CHICAGO — Contradicting medical theories, a 14-year study of nearly 89,000 women found no evidence that a high-fat diet promotes breast cancer or that a low-fat diet protects against it.
Experts noted that a low-fat diet still was good for the heart and other aspects of health. They said the study indicated a need to look more carefully at how diet may affect the risk of breast cancer.
The Harvard study was published in yesterday's Journal of the American Medical Association.
The study tracked 88,795 women in the continuing Nurses' Health Study. The women, ages 30 to 55, completed detailed questionnaires about their eating habits every four years from 1980 to 1994.
Researchers compared the diets of the women without breast cancer and the 2,956 women whose breast cancer was discovered during the course of the study.

Iranian president urges dialogue during visit
ROME — Iranian President Mohammad Khatami declared a new era of detente yesterday, urging mutual respect among nations as he made the first visit by an Iranian leader to a Western nation since his country's 1979 Islamic revolution.
The 56-year-old cleric presented himself as a believer in more social and political freedom at home and an advocate of dialogue, not confrontation, with the West.
Thousands of police were deployed in a massive security operation for his visit, tangleing Rome's traffic for much of the day.
At a state dinner held by President Usa Luigi Scalfaro, Khatami said Iran had no intentions of hostility with any country.
"Iran demands rational, healthy relations," he said.
Scalfan gave Khatami a red carpet welcome complete with an honor guard and a brass band yesterday, but several thousand Iranian axes gathered in the shadow of the Coliseum to protest the visit.
Exhibit about Hitler bombed in Germany
SARBRUECKEN, Germany — A powerful bomb exploded yesterday outside a traveling exhibit on the role of Hitler's regular soldiers in Nazi war crimes.
Police said they suspected right-wing extremists who repeatedly had protested the show.
No one was injured in the predawn explosion, which caused millions of dollars worth of damage to the college building housing the exhibit. Little harm was done to the displays.
The bombing was the most serious attack yet on the controversial show, which has provoked sharp debate and sometimes violent street clashes between neo-Nazi protesters and radical leftists since it began touring four years ago.
Through photos, military papers, letters and diary excerpts, the exhibition documents the involvement of regular Wehmacht soldiers in the killings of Jews, Gypsies and prisoners of war in the Soviet Union and the Balkans 1941-44.
The exhibit challenges beliefs that Nazi SS units were primarily responsible for Holocaust crimes and wartime atrocities.

need-based scholarships and comprehensive grants.
"The state needs to start covering some of the burden." Maxwell said.
He said there was almost no legislative opposition to a proposal for an estimated $1 million state-sponsored college savings plan, which would allow parents and their children to begin saving and planning early for college.
Maxwell said that he thought an increase in faculty salaries was an important student issue but that student lobbyists would not endorse a specific percentage. Instead, he said, they would tell legislators about the ways in which quality professors affected their educations.
"The main thing is to keep it at the forefront of their minds," Maxwell said. "We're not going to highlight the issue. That's just a pipe dream anymore, and we don't want it to be the only thing anyone wants to talk about."
Rep. David Adkins, R-Leawood, said an increase in faculty salaries should be student lobbyists' highest priority. He said students were in a unique position to describe why high-quality faculty members were important*
Adkins said funding for technology also was important. But he said that the state had less revenue than predicted and that other parties also would be competing for large increases in their budgets.
"In order to keep higher education a priority, the advocacy of students is important." Adkins said. "Students should not be timid about asking for support or about holding legislators accountable."
Tim Burger, Lenexa junior and student lobbyist, said students did not usually participate in the legislative process.
"It's important to amplify the voice we do have," he said. "Lobbying is a good opportunity to interact with legislators and communicate our desires as a University."

Imagination Workshop postpones performance
By Heather Woodward hwoodward@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
The show will go on but not until next month.
Hunter was in fair condition yesterday evening at the Neurological Intensive Care Unit of the University of Kansas Medical Center. After she suffered a seizure Sunday, Hunter went to Lawrence Memorial Hospital and then was flown by helicopter to the Med Center.
Imagination Workshop, which is produced every two months and picked up by National Public Radio, was scheduled for 5 p. m. and 8 p. m. Saturday night at Liberty Hall. Ticket holders can keep their tickets for the April 3 show or take them back to where they purchased the tickets for a full refund.
Kip Niven, an Imagination Workshop cast member and writer, said some portions of the script might change.
The University of Kansas' public radio station has postponed this weekend's production of Imagination Workshop because the station's classical music host and assistant program director, Rachel Hunter, suffered from the effects of a brain aneurysm Sunday. The live comedy show, which Hunter helped produce, has been postponed until April 3.
we were going to do an Academy Awards preview, but now the show will be after the
"Rachel is scheduled to have surgery next week, and it's really serious," said Cordilia Brown, KANU-FM 91.5 operations manager.
Niven, who has acted in Imagination Work shop for five seasons, said the show would include episodes about Barbie and Ken, actor Antonio Banderas' radio show and a musical spoof of the Eagles singing Shakespeare.
fact," Niven said. "If the political climate changes, then some pieces might change. But I remember a lot of the show being less specific and less time-bound."
Although rescheduled the show will cause audience and cast members some inconvenience, Niven said his primary concern was for Hunter's health.
"I have been a professional actor for 28 years, and this is the most fun I have ever had," Niven said. "The group of people is extremely talented, and the material is always first rate. Some people have said it's like a Saturday Night Live, only funny."
"Rachel is one of the great women on the planet," Niven said. "She has one of the great voices in radio. I think audience members will understand. I have a friend who had tickets for 27 people from his church group, and I had to e-mail him and tell him it was postponed."
it's sad that it's postponed, but I'l be able to go some other time," Macfarlane said. "We'll probably just go to the April 3 show. It's a really funny show. I've watched some of the actors in the show throughout their careers."

Senators urge faculty to post syllabi online
The Student Senate course content subcommittee is trying to encourage more faculty and staff members to post their course syllabi online.

Sarah Schreck, College of Liberal Arts and Sciences senator and subcommittee chairwoman, said she received complaints from students who wanted access to more information before enrolling.
She said she hoped more faculty and staff members would post syllabi before enrollment or when timetables are published this spring.
Schreck said the subcommittee's goal was to encourage all faculty and staff members to post course information on the University of Kansas' course content Web site at http://www.ukans.edu/-content/
"If we don't have all the faculty participate, it's going to be rough for students who don't find their classes online," she said.

Schreck said the subcommittee may ask Chancellor Robert Hemenway to require faculty to post information on the site.
Schreck said the publication of course content online was a compromise between students, who wanted the administration to post faculty evaluations online, and faculty members serving on the University Council, who rejected the request last year as an invasion of privacy.
Senate committees will consider a bill tonight to provide the subcommittee with $373 to improve and publicize the Web site and to recognize faculty and staff members who have contributed.
- Committees will review bills to provide $750 for a lecture about objectivism sponsored by The Rational Mind: An Objectivist Club and $183 in funding for the KU Polish Club, a new student organization.
Senate committees also will consider a bill to finance KU Environs' Earth Day celebration April 24 in South Park. The organization will request $5,400 to pay talent fees for Casey Neill, environmentalist and musician, and Adam Werback, president of the Sierra Club.
Graduate Affairs, Multicultural Affairs and University Affairs committees will meet at 6 p.m. at Alcove D, Governors and Alderson rooms in the Kansan Union. Finance and Student Rights committees will meet at 6:30 p.m. at Pine and Walnut Rooms in the Union.

Influenza exhausts students, Watkins staff
A message for KU students who have been suffering with colds or the flu this winter and for those who have avoided getting sick so far: You aren't out of the woods just vet.

This flu season has been unusual because it started in January and has remained relatively constant until now. Rock said a typical season started with a peak in flu cases near Thanksgiving, with a second peak near spring break.
"The much anticipated end of the flu season has not arrived," said Randall Rock, chief of staff at Watkins Memorial Health Center.
Rock said that Watkins had been seeing and treating many patients with influenza or other respiratory illnesses and that no significant decrease in flu cases had been seen yet.

Josh Lake, Wamego sophomore,
said he had missed class last week
because he had been sick with flulike
symptoms, including dizziness
and a cough.
A section of the waiting room at Watkins has even been designated as a "no-coughing" section to keep those who visit the health center from making others sick.
Midterms can disrupt sleep patterns and add additional stress to people with the flu, Rock said. His advice to students who had the flu was to avoid all-night study sessions, exposure to second-hand smoke, excessive alcohol consumption and going out if they were coughing to avoid spreading
Rock said the staff at Watkins had been trying its best to accommodate the large number of patients who had come in with the flu and apologized to those, including Lake, who had been unable to make appointments at the health center because of the overload.

little battle-weary," Rock said.
Rock said spring break typically provided an end to the flu season because it decreased close interaction between students in classes and residence halls. When students leave campus to go home or on vacation, it tends to break the cycle of infection and give them a chance to recuperate, Rock said.
"We made that to accommodate students who need to go to Watkins but want to avoid a coughing gallery," Rock said.

First Amendment needed high court's support in Stone lawsuit
The U.S. Supreme Court committed a serious assault on First Amendment liberties Monday when it allowed a lawsuit to proceed against filmmaker Oliver Stone.
The suit, brought by the Louisiana family of a shooting victim, alleges that Stone's 1994 film Natural Born Killers incited a 1995 robbery that left a businessman dead and a convenience store employee paralyzed. The plaintiffs demand that Stone and the film's distributor be held responsible and are asking for damages.
By refusing to dismiss the suit against Stone and the film's distributor, Time Warner Entertainment Co., the court has given the go-ahead for further persecution of artists whose work explores anything out of the realm of family-friendly, G-rated entertainment.
The case against Stone arose from a shooting in a Ponchatoula, La., convenience store in which a young couple allegedly mimicked scenes of violence that appeared in Natural Born Killers, a satire about the media's glamoriza-
Influence of Natural Born Killers in question after Louisiana shooting.
tion of criminals.
According to the lawsuit, the couple viewed the video repeatedly before committing the criminal acts.
Although Natural Born Killers in fact criticizes rather than exalts the increasing amount of sex and violence in today's pop culture, the nation's highest court didn't see it that way. Without comment, the court sent the case back to the Louisiana court system for trial.
the implications of any ruling against Stone and Time Warner are immense for other artists. If Stone is found responsible, it will encourage other persons, who believe they were wronged by the "evils" of Hollywood, to seek out retribution.
The danger of lawsuits could make Hollywood less likely to make films that deal with or portray scenes of sex
and violence. That threat ultimately amounts to prior restraint against artists' right to free expression.
The Supreme Court's decision to allow the case to proceed files in the face of accepted First Amendment wisdom.
Little has been said about the mental stability of Patsy Byers' attackers. Millions of people around the world have seen Natural Born Killers, and it seems that the vast majority of those viewers have refrained from violent outbursts.
The court's ruling arrived only a day after the death of filmmaker Stanley Kubrick, whose 1971 film A Clockwork Orange prompted similar claims of copycat crimes. Complaints against A Clockwork Orange, which contained scenes of violent beatings and rapes, eventually drove the film out of distribution in England, Kubrick's homeland. The film remains banned in England.
The right to free expression was placed in the Bill of Rights for a proper reason. Artists should not have to worry about whether potentially unstable persons react poorly to their work.

Misinformation clouds intent of Heidegger series
As professors of the philosophy course,
"Heidegger and the Greeks," that is bringing four distinguished Heidegger scholars to campus this semester, we feel we
scholars to campus this's must respond to the misinformed and reckless rhetoric with which both our lecture series and our course have been repeatedly criticized.
P. B.
Thomas Tuozzo
Guest columnist
Anyone with the slightest familiarity with the philosophy of the 20th century knows that Martin Heidegger is one of its most powerful and influential thinkers. The subtlety and originality of his thought have shaped a major tradition of European philosophical work and have exerted a strong influence on such diverse fields as literary criticism, religious studies, art history and architecture.
A. M. RENNIE
Courses dealing with various aspects of Heidegger's thought are offered throughout the University of Kansas, not just in the philosophy department. It is hardly an exaggeration to say that not a semester goes by in which there is not a course or two offered
that includes Heidegger's work
It is true that Heidegger joined the Nazi Party after it came to power and that for 10 months at the beginning of the regime, he served the Nazis as rector of Freiburg University.
In the last decade, it has become more widely known that after the war, Heidegger downplayed and misrepresented his initial enthusiasm for the Nazis and the extent to which, as rector, he implemented their educational policies — including discrimination against Jewish professors and students.
These issues are valid and important, even pressing, subjects for study. In particular, Heidegger's connection with the Nazis needs to be studied further, and it must never be glossed over or excused, as sometimes has been done in the past.
Accordingly, there has been a great deal of scholarly research and debate concerning the nature and extent of Heidegger's political engagement during the Nazi period, as well as concerning his private conduct toward former friends and colleagues who were Jews or otherwise politically out of favor.
Heidegger's involvement with the Nazis can be seen as an extreme example of a troubling feature of much of the history of the West: the connections — sometimes hidden, sometimes obvious — between the production of cultural works of dazzling power and originality, on the one hand, and the oppression — and worse — of non-European peoples and marginalized European groups, on the other.
But not every course about Western culture need investigate its complicity in oppression, nor does every course about Heidegger need to take as its theme his relation to the politics of his time.
But, however deplorable Heidegger's private behavior or brief service as a Nazi university administrator, there can be no gainsaying the importance and magnitude of his philosophical achievement.
To suggest that Heidegger's philosophy is the theory of which Hitler's regime was the practice displays an ignorance of Heidegger's work so complete as to be undeserving a response were it not so harmful — harmful to those personally touched by the Nazi genocide, whose passions are here evoked on a false pretext; harmful to the distinguished Heidegger scholars who will visit our University, whose good names are tainted; harmful to the mission of the University itself, insofar as the opportunity for open and serious study of difficult philosophical material is jeopardized.
Heidegger's work in no way simply constitutes an endorsement or rationalization of Nazi policies. Given the fact that many prominent Heideggerian philosophers and scholars — such as Jacques Derrida and Emmanuel Levinas — are Jews, it would be astonishing if it did.
Our course focuses on the philosophical encounter with Greek thought that Heidegger engaged in throughout his life. The material is complex and difficult, but its study is important and rewarding.
We are fortunate to have the assistance of the four internationally recognized experts who will be visiting our seminar and giving a related series of public lectures. We are confident the University community understands the value of our endeavor and supports the unique opportunity for learning the class and lectures represent.
Tuozzo is an associate professor of philosophy. Rush is an assistant professor of philosophy. They are co-teaching Philosophy 820. Heidegger and the Greeks.A series of campuswide lectures will be held this semester in connection with the class.
'Attractive' Lewinsky dodged responsibility
F or Americans who didn't watch WB's Charmed last Wednesday night, Monica Lewinsky made her stunning debut to the nation. Barbara Walters did the interview
on ABC and, like any other Barbara Walters interview, she presented a celebrity as a victim. Brilliantly orchestrated, it surely is not a coincidence that ABC fit the interview into a time slot that allowed viewers to catch Beverly Hills 90210 before tuning in.
First things first. Lewinsky looked presentable and borderline attractive. ABC evidently has the best make-up people in the
Jenny Oakson opinion @ kansan.com
business. They even made Walters look good. But if intelligent and regretful was the look Lewinsky was looking for, she needed more than lip gloss.
Here's a take on the interview:
Here's a base of information.
8 p.m. The interview opened with the first of many segments featuring Walters at a news desk highlighting what questions the interview would cover and exactly who Monica Lewinsky is, the latter part obviously designated for returning astronauts and Biodome participants.
With a series of stock clips of Bill Clinton with the intern and Beverly Hills home videos, viewers saw the evolution of Monica Lewinsky, lonely and fat, to Monica Lewinsky, sans beret, smiling for photographers and mildly overweight.
8:08 p.m. Lewinsky said, halfheartedly, "I realize the pain I've caused you, country," all the while hiding behind her weight problem and the abuse she's experienced from society and the press (see above).
Then, she noted she prays everyday that she isn't having another affair with a married man. First, it's the President's fault, then Linda Tripp's, then Ken Starr's, and now it seems that Lewinsky believes God had some involvement in the scandal. One can receive immunity from criminal charges, but there is no immunity from responsibility or reality.
8:26 p.m. ABC displayed a very Lawn Mower Man-esque computer-generated map of the oval office. Is it really important how Lewinsky snuck in and out of the White House? It's not like she demonstrated any skill in being discreet about the whole mess.
8:19 p.m. News broke that the President of the United States is a "good kisser." Sure, he may have seemed like a smooth operator to a woman of Lewinsky's stature, but the American people know they've had more suave leaders. Try comparing Marilyn Monroe to Monica Lewinsky — it's like comparing prime rib to ground chuck, which is rather appropriate for a president whose daily jog includes a Big Mac steak.
8:47 p.m. Walters got her to cry. When Lewinsky got all teary-eyed after Walters played a very emotional Linda Tripp tape, it was hard to tell if Lewinsky truly was sad or just upset to be proven such a sucker.
9:02 p.m. Walters brought up the infamous blue dress. Lewinsky said discussion of the dress was the most humiliating thing that has happened to her. I guess she missed the millions of cigar references during the past two years.
8:27 p.m. Walters asked Lewinsky why she didn't just get on with her life, to which Lewinsky answered with some emotional excuse. It is not hard to understand that Lewinsky was immature, confused and irrational, but never once did she express any regret or acknowledgment of her error. The many smiles and teeth flashes didn't help. She looked more like a screen test than a display of remorse.
9:16 p.m. Lewinsky whined that the president never brought her back to the White House as he promised he would when he was re-elected. Campaign promises are a dime a dozen, Mon. At least she got the book deal. Clinton probably had promised Paula Jones a nose iob.
9:28 p.m. Lewinsky revealed that she has been, and still is, on medication. It seems she's over-rationalized in her head her motivation to act as she did, but flaunting depression problems is too trite. Not too many people would be able to keep cheery with such an awful high school musical video circulating. Why plead insanity with immunity?
9:53 p.m. "I felt dirty," Lewinsky said to the usual "How did that make you feel?" question from Walters. It's a real shame, too. People commit adultery and screw up in general everyday.
The trouble with Lewinsky, as of today, is that somewhere along the way she has convinced herself that she has been manipulated. Maybe she has, but she didn't once say she was sorry, not even for the trashy detail.

Professor starts online dialect archive
By Ezra Sykes
By Ezra Sykes
eskyes@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
A new Web site takes Internet users through the thick and thin of English accents and dialects.
Paul Meier, associate professor of theater and film, and Shawn Muller, Overland Park senior, have produced a new Web site named International Dialects of English Archives (IDEA) to provide actors, students and teachers with a database of English accents and dialect samples from around the world.
The site at http://www.ukans.edu/~idea/index.html is the first of its kind.
"This is the only one in the world as far as I know," said Meier, an accent and dialect coach.
The project began about a year and a half ago, said Muller, the site's webmaster and former student of Meter's.
HISTORY OF RADIO TAPE WRITING
Meier and Muller began looking at the possibility of putting samples of accents and dialects into MP3 files, a format that compresses large sound files into smaller ones so they can be quickly downloaded.
Paul Meier listens to a Northern Ireland dialect recording that he prepares to digitize and load on to his web site. Students can use the site to listen to recordings of dialects from all over the world. Photo by Brad Looney/KANSAN
After the two realized the project was feasible, Meier applied for a grant from the general research fund
of the University of Kansas and received $7,000 to boot up the site.
Meier said he wanted the site to become a place where watered-down stereotypes and cliches about different cultures evaporated.
The site also will be helpful for professional and academic reasons.
"We have a tendency in the U.S. to reduce other countries to cliche's." Meier said. "What the general public knows about manners, accents, architecture and others' way of life often comes from film. It's better if we get it right. This is my way of making it accurate—with lots and lots of research material."
Eric Armstrong, who teaches accents and dialects at Brandeis University near Chicago, said the site was a breakthrough for actors, students and teachers.
"This technology is making teach
two accurate easier," he said.
Armstrong said that previously those in the dialect and accent-teaching world had to rely on mailing audio tapes back and forth. If the site becomes successful, Armstrong said, trading audio samples could be an e-mail away.
"It really shows the future of our field." Armstrong said.
Samples for the site are provided by volunteers who naturally speak
an English dialect or accent.
Meier pointed out that accents ranged from very slight (in a subtle Russian accent) to very thick and clumsy (in a heavy and recognizable Russian accent).
Meier asks participants to give some biographical data on the preliminary recording. Then he goes through and chops the 10- to 15-minute session into about two or
three minutes, attempting to include sections that best exemplify the accent or dialect.
Although the site contains seven different accent files right now, new accents and dialects will be added soon. Meier, who applied for a $21,000 grant from the National Endowment for Humanities, hopes to have at least 100 files by next spring.

KU law professors question e-mail case
By Jennifer Roush
jrush@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Some professors at the University of Kansas' law school are unsure whether Reno County prosecutors can win a conviction in the case of a 16-year-old Hutchinson girl charged with disorderly conduct.
The charges were filed Feb. 18 in Reno County District Court by Assistant Reno County Attorney Linda Blackburn after the girl reportedly sent harassing e-mail messages to her former boyfriend, also 16.
The boy's mother saw the e-mail messages and reported them to Tim Archer, a Hutchinson police officer who works with teenagers at Hutchinson High School, said Sgt. Jody Holmes of the Hutchinson Police Department.
The e-mail was the last in a string of three similar messages to the boy. The other two were virtual greeting cards. One read "Die Loser," and the other had a heart with the words "Liar, Liar."
KU law professors say they were surprised that the girl had been charged in the first place. They said that the disorderly conduct charge was too broad and that the girl had not threatened her former boyfriend.
Mike Kautsch, professor of law, said he didn't think it mattered that the messages were e-mailed to
the boy rather than written by hand.
"It's entirely possible that the use of e-mail wasn't legally significant." he said.
Kim Dayton, professor of law, helped draft the University's acceptable-use policy for e-mail. She said laws about what speech was permitted needed to be specific and clear.
However, speech on the Internet generally is protected by the First Amendment, Dayton said. She also said that statutes prohibiting telephone harassment did not apply to computer use.
"The Internet is an entirely new medium." Dayton said. "It blends attributes of newspapers, television, radio and people standing on soapboxes on the street."
The University adopted its acceptable-use policy for electronic mail in March 1998, said Jerry Niebaum, director for Academic Computing Services.
The policy, called "Netiquette",
can be found online at
www.ukans.edu/~vcinfo/net
guide.html. "Netiquette" also
includes other guidelines for KU
email account holders. The document
also is available in hard copy
at the computer center.
Penalties for misuse of University e-mail accounts include, but are not limited to, termination of the user's account. Niebium said.

Internet charge rumor triggers online buzz
By Jennifer Roush
jroush@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
The Internet has been buzzing for two weeks about a recent Federal Communication Commission ruling about the way telephone companies deal with Internet traffic between states.
Students with e-mail accounts have received for warded messages with alarming subject lines, warning that the FCC was planning to charge long-distance fees or levy taxes to connect to the Internet.
Evan Bryson, e-mail coordinator for the Organization of Adult Knowledge Seekers, said he had received such a message and was requested to forward it to members of the group's mailing list.
"I got the message from Andy Schiro," Bryson said. "I didn't read all of it, though. I just skimmed it."
Shiro, Lawrence freshman and OAKS—Non-Traditional Students Organization member, said he had heard conflicting rumors about the decision from sources on the Internet and through his job.
An attorney for the FCC said the ruling was a clarification of the FCC's regulations regarding calls to Internet service providers.
However, according to the FCC, the rumors are not true.
The FCC attorney said calls to ISPs generally were considered interstate. That puts them under federal jurisdiction.
She said the monetary part of the ruling applied only to telephone companies and would not affect individuals.
Although most people who dial into the Internet call local numbers, they access Web sites and send e-mail to people in other states, she said. For that reason, the FCC considers the calls to be interstate.
However, ISPs are considered to be enhanced service providers, the attorney said. The FCC granted them that status in 1984 in recognition of increasing online traffic. This status makes ISPs exempt from long-distance charges.
The decision was made in response to increasing competition among telephone companies in local markets. It helps the FCC determine how money is distributed among phone companies. It also clarifies where the FCC has jurisdiction.
The attorney said the ruckus began because people who regularly use the Internet tend to be very wary of anything that sounds like government regulation. She said the decision actually would keep the FCC away from the Internet.

The death of former Supreme Court Justice Harry A. Blackmun, best known as the author of the 1973 Roe vs. Wade decision, has evoked reactions from those who were affected by the case.
By Chris Hopkins
chopkins@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Justice's legacy being discussed
Chris Drahozel, associate professor of law, said Blackmun's decision was not just about abortion.
Blackmun's death stirs talk
"Blackman was trying to offer an interpretation of a lot of things going on in the early '70s," he said.
Drahoal said Blackmun was more of a figure in debate of the Constitution than in the Supreme Court.
Blackman's argument in Roe vs. Wade was that the right to privacy was guaranteed by the Constitution. Because the right to privacy wasn't explicitly set out in the Constitution, it was common for law professors to say it was a personal decision, Drahozal said.
"Blackmun made some bold and brave and intelligent additions to the constitutional discourse from a personal rights perspective," he said.
Sally Puleo, president of the University of Kansas Pro-Choice Coalition, said she was impressed by the strength of Blackmun's beliefs.
"He always stood by his view on Roe vs. Wade even though he got death threats, and there were protesters everywhere, and he was called all sorts of names," she said. "He never wavered."
Others affected by Roe vs. Wade,
however, said Blackmight might have
changed his mind about the decision in his final days.
Karen Mitchell, president of Black Americans for life, said she had heard that in the days before his death, Blackmun said he regretted his decision in Roe vs. Wade.
www.nwu.edu/summernu/
Mitchell said while she wasn't happy he died, it didn't change the strength of her opposition.
"I'm against what he did and his life's work," she said.
Abortion rights advocates were more supportive of Blackmun's decisions as a Supreme Court justice.
Jennell Clark, Vice President of Marketing at Planned Parenthood of Kansas and Mid-Missouri, said her organization was saddened by the loss of Blackmun. Planned Parenthood won a 1992 Supreme Court case in a decision by a decidedly conservative court.

Planned Parenthood link to racism debated
By Chris Hopkins
Karen Mitchell presented a speech Thursday at the University of Kansas in which she claimed Planned Parenthood was discriminatory.
By Chris Hopkins
chopkins@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
"The abortion industry has targeted the African-American community," she said.
Mitchell is the president of Kansas City organization Black Americans for Life.
Mitchell said that Planned Parenthood was racist because Margaret Sanger, founder of the organization and early birth control activist, was a euginist. Eugenists believe in the selective breeding of humans.
The debate is not a new one. A page on the Planned Parenthood Web site defending Sanger has been on the Internet for three years and was adapted from a text written in 1994.
Mitchell also said that Sanger spoke several times with Adolf Hitler, although Carl Strikwerda, professor of history and teacher of Hitler and Nazi Germany, hadn't heard of that.
Emily Vieira, Marysville sophore and KU Students for Life
"To the best of my knowledge, there was no connection between Hitler and Sanger." he said.
member, said that Hitler's Mein Kampf echoed Margaret Sanger's The Pivot of Civilization.
Strikwerda said that it was stretching things to say that the German eugenics movement and the American eugenics movement were that closely connected.
"They basically had their own motivations," he said. "The Germans were interested in American eugenics, but if there hadn't been American eugenics, the Germans would have pushed forward anyway."
Mitchell said that the basis for her claims of Sanger's racism were a few letters and The Pivot of Civilization.
Vieyra said that some of the things written in that book were blatantly racist
"She was against people with hereditary taints' procreating at all," she said.
Mitchell also said that Planned Parenthoods were and always had been placed predominantly in minority neighborhoods.
Jennell Clark, vice president of marketing for Planned Parenthood of Kansas and Mid-Missouri, said that this was a misinterpretation of Sanger's intentions.
"Sanger began her grassroots efforts primarily in the ethnic communities because she was convinced that uncontrolled pregnancies presented a greater burden to ethnic groups who represented the poorer populations of that era." Clark said in a prepared statement.
Joey Sprague, faculty adviser to the KU Feminist's Union, didn't contend that Sanger made racist statements, but she said that Sanger made some comments because they would appeal to the white people who were so powerful at the time.
"Feminists at the turn of the century made claims that Feminists would never make now," she said.
would never make now," she said.
Mitchell said that because of Planned Parenthood's current activities, she found it hard to believe that they had moved away from Sanger's beliefs.
"All the goals that she's stated are the things that they have done and are doing," Mitchell said.
Until Planned Parenthood stands up and disavows everything that Margaret Sanger was, they still will be a racist organization. Mitchell said.
"From my point of view, they're not going to do that," Mitchell said. Sprague said that despite her beliefs, Sanger did more good than harm.
"She was wrong about a lot of things, but what she created was something people needed," she said.

Nabisco sells tobacco unit
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — RJR Nabisco Holdings Corp., the food-and-tobacco conglomerate whose brands include Camels and Winstons, Oreo cookies and Ritz crackers, is getting out of the cigarette business.
RJR said yesterday it would sell its international tobacco business to Japan's biggest tobacco company for $7.8 billion and spin off its domestic tobacco operations as a separate company.
The moves come amid rising legal challenges to cigarettes and falling numbers of U.S. smokers — something tobacco opponents were quick to note.
"The tobacco industry is in deep trouble," said Ahron Leichtman, executive director of Citizens for a Tobacco-Free Society.
RJR said its aim was merely
to help the cigarette and food companies achieve greater success as separate entities.
The $17 billion conglomerate has been pressured for several years by major stockholders to separate its food and tobacco businesses because the tobacco holdings are considered a drag on RJR's stock. Some investors won't put their money in any company that has tobacco holdings, out of either opposition to smoking or fear that lawsuits will hurt profits.
RJR Nabisco was created during the mid-1980s when the R.J. Reynolds tobacco company bought the food company Nabisco Brands.
RJR's international tobacco business is a distant third to Philip Morris Cos. and British-American Tobacco, and its earnings have fallen amid financial turmoil in its key Russian and Asian markets. It will be sold to the Japan Tobacco Co.
"The deal will allow us to secure a base for future growth overseas and establish us as a global player," Japan Tobacco said in a statement.
After the sale, RJR will spin off its domestic tobacco operations to RJR shareholders. The tobacco business will revert to its old name - R.J Reynolds Tobacco Co.- and retain its headquarters in Winston-Salem, N.C.
The resulting RJR Nabisco will be basically a food company, with such products as Chips Ahoy! and Snackwell's cookies, Life Savers candy and Planters nuts.
With the new corporate structure, people will be able to file tobacco lawsuits against either R.J. Reynolds Tobacco Co. or the new RJR Nabisco.
New high-speed train unveiled
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Amtrak unveiled a new high-speed train yesterday that is designed to whisk passengers at 150 mph between Washington, New York and Boston and revitalize the railroad by competing with airlines on such trips.
Named "Acela" (uh-SELL-ah) to hint at both acceleration and excellence, the new trains will travel between Boston and New York in three hours — an improvement of 90 minutes on the current trip — and from New York to Washington in as little as 21/2 hours, a savings of 30 minutes.
Service is to begin in November or December, and Amtrak officials hope it will be a model for similar trains in the Great Lakes, the Gulf Coast, California and the Pacific Northwest.
"We know we have a product here that will absolutely knock
the socks off the competition," Amtrak President George Warrington said at a gala opening attended by more than 1,000 employees."
Amtrak also promised an unparalleled service. Acela's snub-nosed, silver-and-turquoise trains will have business-class seats with audio and power jacks, special check-in areas and concierge service, plus dining cars with meeting tables, upgraded food and beer on tap.
The schedule has not been set, but Amtrak officials said it probably would maintain most current stops, including Baltimore, Philadelphia, New Haven, Conn., and Providence, R.I. The railroad also will retain its slower Northeast Direct service.

Wisconsin Gov. Tommy Thompson, chairman of the Amtrak board of directors, said he hoped the next stop for high-speed rail would be the Midwest. Amtrak already has announced it will spend $25 million to work on a high-speed network linking nine Midwestern states.
Iraq strikes should stop, Persian Gulf ally tells U.S.
AL JABER AIR BASE, Kuwait — A major Persian Gulfally criticized the Clinton administration yesterday for almost daily air strikes against Iraqi anti-aircraft targets
The Associated Press
Despite the criticism, U. S. F-165 loaded with bombs and missiles continued to roar aloft from this desert base on the doorstep of southern Iraq. U. S. pilots said they weren't looking for trouble but were ready to strike if fired on union. And the Iraqis were still firing.
The foreign minister of Qatar, a moderate Arab ally in the Gulf region, told Defense Secretary William Cohen that the standoff with Iraq should end peacefully and that the daily strikes by U. S. warplanes responding to Iraqi challenges should cease.
The statements marked the first open opposition from any U. S. partner in the Persian Gulf during Cohen's week-long swing through the region.
During the news conference in Doha, Qatar's capital, Cohen defended the U. S. strikes as basic self-defense against Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein's stepped-up effort to defy international sanctions and shoot down U.S. warplanes.
Attacks and counterattacks continued in the northern Iraqi no-flight zone. Army Col. Richard Bridges said U. S. F-15 fighters launched 600-pound bombs at three anti-aircraft sites that fired on platoons. U. S. planes based in Kuwait, Saudi Arabia and aboard carriers in the Persian Gulf, cover the larger southern no-flight zone.
In Washington, a Senate critic of the Clinton administration's Iraq policy suggested the United States is squandering an opportunity to move more forcefully to oust Saddam.
Sen. Sam Brownback, R-Kan., chairman of a Senate Foreign Relations subcommittee, complained that the administration had not spent any of some $97 million that Congress earmarked last year to provide military assistance to opposition groups.
Arab critics suggest the United States is looking for a fight, hoping to provoke Iraq into firing to clear the way for punishing retaliatory strikes. Qatar's semi-independent Gulf Times said in an editorial last weekend.

Graduate teaching assistant describes tough, rewarding realities of her job

Surrounding her are the tools of the discipline. In two opposing corners, human skeletons, both broken and whole, conspire. A monkey skeleton gagged with foam rubber is nearby. In the other two corners, busts of apes and neolithic men gaze down like plaster sentinels. Shelf upon shelf of jawbones sit in a bookcase.
It's 8:30 on a Tuesday morning, and Alexa Pfeffer is trying to explain the difference between antibodies and antigens to a beginning physical anthropology class.
Pfeffer, Glastonbury, Conn., graduate student, is working hard to awaken the discussion section but has little success until she hands out the quiz from the previous Monday.
She said that it was tough to motivate students in the morning and that early classes should be banned.
"I remember being an undergrad, and it didn't matter how interesting your professor was sometimes," Pfeffer said. "I'm not going to take it personally."
"8:30 in the morning, it doesn't matter what you know," Pfeffer said. "It doesn't matter what I know."
Pfeffer turned 26 recently, making her considerably younger than most graduate students, who average 32 years old, but older than most undergraduates, who average 21 years old.
The quiz, which even the graduate teaching assistants had no advance warning of, had been more or less failed by the students, so Pfeffer downplays it a bit.
Pfeffer is fairly average among KU graduate students, who are 57 percent female and 41 percent out of state. The College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, which includes the department of anthropology, has more graduate students than any other school with 1.967 of them.
Pfeffer said she was taking three classes this semester, which was one more than the normal load for a graduate student, in order to be able to concentrate on writing her master's thesis next semester. She didn't feel as if this made her particularly overloaded.
"Mostly, it's to get you thinking about the test," she told the students, referring to the midterms which would take place the next week.
"If you don't have an extra class, you've got a thesis or something," she said. "There's always something."
Pfeffer taught an 8:30 and a 9:30 a.m. discussion section that Tuesday morning, immediately followed by her office hours. Though she was scheduled to be in her Fraser Hall office for only one hour, she was there from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., except for lunch.
It was hard for her to find a spare moment in her office last week. Students left only to be replaced by more students, all desperately cramming for this week's midterm exam. By Friday, she was helping 15 students at a time in a small office shared by four people.
"Everyone gets really scared in this class, because there are a lot of people who never took science before," she said.
Pfeffer said that she really enjoyed helping people to understand anthropology.
"It's fun," she said. "It's kind of intimidating because a lot of people are looking to you to know things."
The moment when comprehension strikes a student was second only to one thing in her mind.
"I had some students last semester who came up to me and asked how they could become anthropology majors," she said.
Jim Mielke is the professor of Pfeffer's Anthropology 104 class. He said that some students might feel more comfortable talking to Pfeffer than him.
"Most grad students don't ever go out. If you have a life,you're not working."
"They see the GTA as much more approachable than the professor." Mielke said.

power difference; therefore,
they might not have the
courage to talk to the professor.
Pfeffer said that students shouldn't be afraid to talk to her.
"If you're in it just to escape reality, you've got to be hardcore, because it's really hard work,"
"They can come up to me, and they can swear, and they call me by my first name and know it won't affect their grade." she said.
After speaking with students during her office hours, Pfeffer took the time to go out and have lunch with several other GTAs from her department. She spent the hour talking about dissertations, theses and the recent lecture by a Harvard University professor.
"Most grad students don't ever go out," she said. "If you have a life, you're not working."
Pfeffer said that because her contract with the school prevented her from fraternizing with her students, letting them see her in a social light was helpful.
Pfeffer said that she tried to get out and have a social life as much as possible. Her students spotted her at bars or concerts sometimes.
"It makes you more human, so they aren't afraid to talk to you." Pfeffer said.
She said that it was difficult sometimes to stop talking about work and that her roommate no longer went out with her and her friends because work was all they talked about.
Having a social life outside of the job is difficult for a lot of GTAs. Pfeffer said.

"It's funny," she said. "It's like they get so excited. It's like 'Oh my God! You're my TA! That is so cool!"

The plans were for a convention in Columbus, Ohio, that she was going to attend with other GTAs and a professor.
Below: Pfeffer takes a break from the stresses of GTA life.
Pfeffer said she wasn't sure whether she wanted to do research or become a teacher. If she were still here in two years and her group's research project received funding, the project would take her to Alaska for field research.
She said she didn't like the non-teaching portions,such as trying to get grant money for research.
"I'm really not good at schmooing," Pfeffer said.
At the same time, she said she enjoyed her job.
After one final discussion section at 2:30 p.m., Pfeffer helped one more student and then worked on a paper for a class until 11 p.m.
Pfeffer said that being a GTA ate up a lot of her time, and
that it wasn't a good way to avoid joining the work force.
"If you're in it just to escape reality, you've got to be hard-core, because it's really hard work," she said.
Matt Rehder, Great Bend sophomore, said that he thought GTAs put a lot of effort into their teaching.
The work counts a lot more and there are a lot more time constraints in graduate school, Pfeffer said.
"These are the professors you're going to have for a long time, and they're going to have a profound impact on whether you're going to get a job in the field," she said. "The worst part is just not having time for everything and worrying about making an ass out of myself."
"I think they deserve to get paid a little more for all the work they do," he said.
"It's very difficult to juggle one's life," he said.
Mielke said that managing time was one of the problems he remembered from when he was a teaching assistant.
Pfeffer said that graduate school was easier than being an undergraduate in one respect.
"You go to college, and it's your first chance to be who you want to be instead of who everyone else wants you to be, and you don't have to worry about that, which makes grad school 1,000 times more enjoyable," she said.
Pfeffer said that the time constraints and the papers and grading surprise pop quizzes made being a GTA difficult, but not unbearable.
"That's what college is about, isn't it?" she said. "Tough love!"

Worst basketball annoyances given special honors
Last Wednesday, I asked readers to help me with this week's column.
In last week's column, I awarded the Jon-zees, an award of merit named after myself given to Kansas basketball players.
Kansas basketball
This week, I'm giving out the Woio awards.
Named after annoying former Duke point guard Steve Wojciechowski, these awards are given to those things that represent the least likable
things in college basketball.
college basketball.
Readers e-mailed me their votes on who should receive a Wojo award, and the votes have been tabulated.
I'll start off with who the big winners were via email, then I'll share some of my own picks for the Wojo winners.

The Worst College Basketball Announcer Wojo goes to George Ravelling. This was a stunning upset
Seth Jones
sports@kansan.com
This was a stunning opportunity against my personal choice of Dick Vitale. As Derek Prater wrote via e-mail, "Hearing Ravelling call a Pac-10 game is like listening to Grandpa Simpson." Another reply came from Carol Hoffman, who wrote, "The man only knows how to yell, and he's not even yelling anything coherent."
Most Annying Coach Wojo goes to Cincinnati head coach Bob Huggins, Wrote Ron Shaver, Lawrence sophomore, "Somehow, Huggins seems to recruit all of the hoodlums and thugs Norm seems to miss out on."
Other coaches receiving several votes were Bruiser Flint of Massachusetts, Tom Asbury of Kansas State, Norm Stewart of Missouri and our very own Roy Williams. These were KU students voting, mind you.
Most Annoying Player Wojo goes to Kansas State's Manny Dies. Wrote Matthew Rehder, "He's the only player who talks trash while his team is losing by 30 points."
Now, some of my own choices for people who I feel deserve Wolo awards.
The Fashion Police Wojo goes to the lady that called the Jayhawks postgame show on KMBZ to complain about the Jayhawks wearing their Big 12 Tournament champions hats on backwards. Lady, this is a country where you can wear your shorts backwards if you want.
It's called a life. Get one.
It's a fun line. Get one.
At Least We're Not the Wildcats Wojo or maybe the Try A Fictional Bird Wojo goes to two teams with really dumb mascots. The Stanford Cardinal, for what appears to be a Christmas tree for a mascot, and the Jayhawks first round opponent Evansville, for being the Purple Aces.
Jones is a Mulvane junior in magazine journalism.
Biggest Rip-Off of All Time Wojo goes to the concessionaire at Allen Fieldhouse for refusing to give me a cheap cup of water. Instead they wanted to sell me a $2 special bottle of water from some bubbling brook in Canada that was personally endorsed by Bigfoot. Water is water, folks. Unless it comes from the Fountain of Youth, I think it should cost no more than 25 cents.
The Bram Stoker's Cornhuskers Wojo goes to Nebraska head coach Danny Nee. The guy just flat out looks like Dracula. I'm just a little spooked every time we go there because I'm afraid one of the Jayhawks might not come back.
The Boschee-esque Hair-do Jojo goes to my roommate Matt Dunn, who said he'd shave his head if the Jayhawks won the Big 12 Tournament. "But I thought they'd have to play Missouri," he said. We would have beat them, too, Matt. And nice haircut by the way.
The Dumb Advertising Campaign Wojo goes to Nike and Wojo himself for the "March Madness — it's spreading" commercials. These commercials don't make me want to watch college basketball. They make me want to go Watkins to make sure I have received all of my shots. The commercial is about a huge rat that looks just like Wojo himself. The rat gets some bluegoo sucked out of his arm, and it is then injected into a smaller lab rat. They throw the Wojo rat in a box with a rat that is injected with the North Carolina disease. Then, they kill each other, I assume.
So the point is that Nike owner Phil Knight has gone crazy with all the money he's made and is performing sick experiments on harmless animals. I don't know about you, but that really makes me want to wear Nike shoes.
'Hawks want to slide into 'glass slippers'
By Kevin C. Wilson
Kansan sportswriter
This year, there will be no bull's eye on the Kansas Javhawks.
After entering the NCAA Tournament as a No. 1 seed the past two years and dealing with the pressure of advancing, the Jayhawks have adopted a different attitude this season as a No. 6 seed.
"I've enjoyed being top-trained team the past few years," said Kansas senior T.J. Pugh. "But I think this team is very comfortable with sliding into a pair of glass slimpers, and we wouldn't mind playing that role at all."
Kansas senior guard Ryan Robertson agreed with his teammate about the advantages and disadvantages of being the hunted.
WY
"Being a No.1 seed is nice because everybody gets to talk about it, but at the same time there is that added pressure," Robertson said. "There's a feeling around campus and the community that it automatically means you have to go the Final Four.
you're a team player.
"This year, being a No. 6 and having some of the ups and downs that this team has had, we don't feel that much pressure, and the expectations aren't that high. The most pressure put on this team is put on by ourselves, and I think that will help us."

Holdsclaw tops All-America list
The Associated Press
Chamique Holdswclaw, the smooth operator who has led Tennessee to three consecutive national championships, broke new ground as the leader of The Associated Press women's All-America basketball team.
Holdsclaw became the first player named to the first team three times and the first to earn All-America honors all four years of her college career. She made the third team as a freshman.
The Tennessee ace and Purdue's Stephanie White McCarty were voted to the first team on all 42 ballots from a national media panel, the only unanimous selections. They were joined on that unit by Tennessee's Tamika Catchings, Alabama's Dominique Canty and Colorado State's Becky Hammon.
The only other time one school had two first-team picks was 1996, when Connecticut's Kara Wolters and Jennifer Rizzotti made the top five. The AP began picking a women's All-America team in 1995.
Catchings was named to the first, second or third team on 40 ballots, Canty appeared on 39 and Hammon on 37.
appeared Tennessee's Semeka Randall was named to the second team, along with Amanda Wilson of Louisiana Tech, Svetlana Abrosimova of Connecticut, Angie Braziliel of Texas Tech and Tamla Whit

more of Memphis.
The third team had Maylaana Martin of UCLA, Jackie Stiles of Southwest Missouri State, Ruth Riley of Notre Dame, Dalma Ivanyi of Florida International and Duke's Michele Van Gorp.
Kansas' Lynn Pride, who had preseason hopes of being an All American, was selected Honorable Mention Aimer-Amer-
ica. She averaged 17.5 points and 7.3 rebounds for the Jayhawks.
Holdcslw, so versatile at 6-foot-2 that she can play any position on the floor, has averaged 20.9 points and eight rebounds
NCAA
With Tennessee getting more production from other positions, Holdswclaw's scoring average is down a little this season. But she has improved in other ways and is still the player the Lady Vols turn to when things get tight.
in leading Tennessee to a 28-2 record.
"Chamique has been able to get a lot better opportunities off the offensive glass and physically be even more of a presence on defense."
"Physically, she's more imposing now," said Tennessee coach Pat Summitt. "She's much stronger, which I think has helped her around the basket.
Holdsclaw was the national player of the year last season and is a candidate for that honor again.
"She is going to be remembered as a player of impact." Summitt said.
White-McCarty made the jump from honorable mention last year to unanimous first-team pick, while leading Purdue to its first-ever No.1 ranking. She's averaging 21 points and 4.6 assists and has helped the Boilermakers win several close games with key plays down the stretch.
"It's a tremendous honor to be included among the top five players in the country," White McCarty said. "It's almost a dream come true.
"Certainly I have to thank all my coaches and of course my teammates because we're all in this together."
Canny, a second-team pick last year, has been a do-everything player for Alabama. Her 20-point scoring average is nearly twice that of anyone else on the team, and she also is averaging 7.2 rebounds and 4.3 assists.
"The day she walked on our campus, she had an impact," said Alabama coach Rick Moody. "Her demeanor on the floor has been just incredible because she's such a cool player, and never once has he given any indication of a primadonna attitude. That's just a joy to coach."
Pierce injures ankle in game
The Associated Press
CHARLOTTE, N.C. — NBA rookie scoring and steals leader Paul Pierce had to be helped off the court after rolling his right ankle in the first quarter of the Celtics' game against Charlotte last night. He did not return.
Pierce was battling for a rebound with three minutes left in the quarter when he landed awkwardly on his right ankle, and it gave way. Pierce needed assistance from two members of the Celtics' staff to make it to the locker room.
X-rays were negative, and the Celtics originally said he would return to the game. But Pierce walked gingerly back to the Boston bench early in the second quarter and stayed there the rest of the period. He remained in the locker room for the second half. The team said the ankle stiffened up during halftime.
Pierce, the 10th overall selection in the 1998 draft, went into last night's game leading all NBA rookies with averages of 18 points and 2.67 steals.

For players and coaches alike, it is something that happens everyday. They suit up in their uniforms, strap on their cleats and warm up their bodies long beforehand to get ready for practice.
With the Kansas baseball team the scene is the same, with the exception of one member of the club who isn't always able to prepare in advance. The reason for the delay is because this Jayhawk is also a mediating attorney who works in Chicago.
and Denver University. At Denver he played third base for two years and after graduating stayed involved with the game by coaching at a high school in Denver.
Volunteer assistant coach Jim Toscano, 41, joined the Jayhawks at the first of the year. Toscano, out of collegiate baseball for nearly 15 years, said that he had missed the game he had coached and played for so long and that he had heard there was an opportunity to volunteer his services at Kansas.
o volunteered head coach Bobby Randall and has been practicing and traveling with the team the entire season.
A native of Denver, Toscano attended both the University of Northern Colorado
In 1985, Toscano stopped coaching college baseball and went to law school at Denver University. He has been practicing law for 11 years and has worked in Denver.
After coaching high school for five years, Toscano worked as an assistant at the University of California at San Diego. He stayed at UCSD for two years, then coached the Athletes in Action team overseas.
In 1994, realizing he missed the game, Toscano went back to coaching at the high school level in Denver.
"I was looking for a way to get back involved with baseball," "Oscano said, "I regretted getting out of college baseball and wanted to coach again."
Coach again he did. While maintaining his law practice in Denver, Toscano coached high school baseball until 1988. Happy to be back in coaching but unsatisfied with the level, Toscano heard of the opportunity at

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday:
This year is about your career and making money and doing the work you love, not necessarily in that order.

In May, get back into the routine so that by August you're performing brilliantly. Get out of town in November, and assume new responsibilities in December. In February, settle into a new routine.

Gemini (May 21-June 21): Today is a 5.
There have been so many changes lately that you may not know where you stand, but today you should be able to figure it out. It's in a pretty good position, most likely, with friends reoffirming their bonds with you. You might even make a new friend today, who could be an old friend in disguise.
Cancer [June 22-July 22]: Today is a 6.

Leo (Julv 23-Aua, 22): Today is a 6.
You and your favorite playmate really ought to get this day off for good behavior, or just for the fun of it. You have so much to talk about that it could take up most of the day.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Today is a 5.
You're getting stronger, and it's about time. The last few days have been exciting but also exhausting.
You'll get a shot of new confidence as the moon goes into your sign.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Today is a 6.
Don't expect all your plans to go smoothly today. For example, something could turn out to be a lot more expensive than you thought it would be. In order to get it, you may have to go into debt.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 21): Today is a 6.
Pictures ( Feb. 19, 2018 ) You're another excellent day to send out your resumes,

The service is to begin at noon and will be closed to the public, church officials said yesterday. Pallbearers have not been announced.

Holyfield still predicts round three knockout
NEW YORK — Evander Holyfield has no second thoughts about his prediction for his heavyweight title fight with Lennox Lewis.

All-America team no surprise
Four of five preseason picks make final list
All but one of the players on The Associated Press preseason All-America team were on the postseason version as well.
The Associated Press
The only one who wasn't was Jason Terry, and on Monday he became Arizona's fourth All-American in the last five years.
"Every day during the off season I would walk by the basketball office and see the photos on the wall of all the guys who have been All-Americans here and tried to picture myself up there," he said. "Now, to think that I will have a photo up there makes me realize what an accomplishment this is."
Terry joined Sean Elliott (1988 and 1989), Damon Stoudamire (1995), Mike Bibby (1998) and Miles Simon (1998) on the wall outside Coach Lute Olson's office.
He joined Elton Brand of Duke, Andre Miller of Utah, Richard Hamilton of Connecticut and Mateen Cleaves of Michigan State on the 1989-99 AP All-America team.
Brand, a 6-foot-8 sophomore center who missed almost half of last season with a broken foot, was the only unanimous selection.
Brand, who averaged 17.8 points and 9.8 rebounds for the top-ranked Blue Devils, was named on all 72 first-team ballots by the national media panel to become the fourth unanimous selection of the '90s.
"It's unbelievable. I'm just elated right now. Just to have been considered for a position of first-team All-America is a special, special honor," said Brand, who shot 62 percent from the field. "I knew I worked hard, and the hard work paid off. Growing up, it's one of the things you definitely dream of. I'm definitely a team person, and the individual accolades come when the team wins."
The others were Christian Laetner of Duke in 1992, Glenn Robinson of Purdue in 1994 and Tim Duncan of Wake Forest in 1997.
Brand was an honorable mention All-American last season despite missing 15 games with the injury, but he showed he was healed this summer when he led the U.S. team in the Goodwill Games in scoring and rebounding.
Miller, a senior guard, was the second-leading vote-getter in the 5-3-1 process, getting 330 points with 60 first-team votes. The Western Athletic Conference player of the year averaged 15.9 points, 5.5 rebounds, 5.7 assists and 2.5 steals, and the 6-foot-2 guard was given more credit for his team leadership than statistics.
"It's a real honor, said Miller, an honorable mention last season when the Utes reached the Final Four. "I can't take the credit myself because we have a great team, and they deserve the award also. It makes being a leader easy when you have a team like we have."
Hamilton, who won or shared Big East player of the year honors the last two seasons, averaged 21.0 points and 4.8 rebounds this season
for the Huskies who were ranked
no. 1 for 10 weeks. The 6-foot-6
juniper swingman, the leading votegetter on the second team last season, had 48 first-team votes and 300 points this season.
"He's worked hard at expanding his total game, and has become one of the top collegiate players in the nation," Connecticut coach Jim Calhoun said. "Last year, he just missed being a first-team selection and this year has rightfully earned his spot among the top five players in college basketball."
Terry, the Pac-10 player of the year, led the league in scoring (22.1), assists (5.6) and steals (2.7) the first player to do that since Gary Payton of Oregon State in 1989-90.
"There is no one more deserving for this honor because of what he has had to go through, in that he has had to provide leadership to the three freshmen in our starting lineup." Olson said.
Terry, a 6-foot-2 senior, got 48 first-team votes and 293 points, 83 more than Cleaves, who was on 19 first-team ballots.
Cleaves, a 6-foot-2 junior, was a second-team choice last season and was named Big 10 player of the year by the league's coaches for the second straight year. He averaged 11.8 points and 7.2 assists as the Spartans won their second straight Big 10 regular-season title.
"I've got to give a lot of credit to my teammates," he said. "If we wouldn't have won a championship, I wouldn't have earned this."
New coach balances law, baseball

Kansas and is now back at the collegiate level hoping to some day be a full-time assistant at a Division-I school.
"Coaching high school isn't like coaching college," Toscano said. "And I am fortunate to be able to have this opportunity at a school with such tradition."
Like any volunteer, Toscano is hopeful that his services eventually will lead him to a more permanent position, but for now he is pleased and thankful for the opportunity that occasionally becomes difficult
"The hardest part is balancing baseball with my legal obligations, but my aspirations are like any other volunteer," he said.
Toscano, who now lives in Kansas City, spends a total of seven days a month in Chicago working as a mediator between Chicago-area developers and a Chicago suburb.
His contract as a mediator expires at the end of June, and Toscano said he would then be able to focus his attention entirely on baseball.
"I'm really lucky and thankful that Coach Randall allows me to miss some days here and there," Toscano said. "The coaches have been great in giving me responsibilities, and I think the players have received me well."
The players say that having Toscano around has been great because his position is one that lies between coach and player.
"You respect him, and you listen to what he says as a coach," freshman outfielder Harrison Hill said. "But he listens to you like a friend. He's a cool guy."

Midwest bracket 'impressive'
Continued from page 1B
Kansas coach Roy Williams said the team's seed had never affected the way the Jayhawks prepared for tournament play.
"We're trying to prepare the same way." Williams said. "If it takes some of the pressure off the kids, then I'm fine with it. But if you ask me, I want to be the No.1 seed because that means I enjoyed the year a heck of a lot more."
If the Jayhawks were the No.1 seed in the Midwest Region, it wouldn't make surviving the tournament any easier.
14
Although every team in the tournament probably picked its bracket as the toughest, Williams said it was hard to ignore the teams in the Midwest Region.
"Evidently there are nine major conference tournaments, and six of the nine winners are in the Midwest, and that's pretty impressive," Williams said. "You look
and you see Utah and Kentucky in our own little first- and second-round site in New Orleans. It's a heck of a region."
Of the 16 teams in the Midwest Region, nine won their conference postseason tournament Kansas, Kentucky, Michigan State, Utah, UNC Charlotte, Rhode Island, New Mexico State, Mount St. Mary's and Arkansas State.
Of the eight teams in New Orleans, three have combined to make seven Final Four appearances in the 1990s — Kentucky with four appearances, Kansas with two and Utah one.
Despite the tough competition in the Midwest Region and the relatively low expectations the Jayhawks face in the NCAA Tournament, Williams has chosen to take it one day at a time.

"This team hasn't done real well when we've talked just about long
term goals." Williams said. "We've done so much better when we've focused on today's practice and Evansville. So, I don't want to set a minimum or a maximum."

Superdome ticket sales sluggish
Empty seats may greet Hawks in Louisiana
By Chris Wristen
cwristen@ukans.edu
Kansas sportwriter
As of yesterday afternoon, 10,000 tickets still remained for the games that will be played in the 24,000 seat Louisiana Superdome. Sales are expected to pick up as game day gets closer, but a sellout is not expected. This would favor Kansas fans seeking tickets.
When the Kansas men's basketball team tips off against Evansville on Friday, the Jayhawks might be playing without something they've become accustomed to—a sold-out crowd.
"It works out to be an advantage to the Kansas fans," Superdome Public Relations Director Bill Curl said. "Some of the other sites have fewer seats, and other popular venues are sold out, so if you're a Kansas fan and want to go to the game, then you're out of luck at those places. Here we've still got good seat tickets available."
There are a few factors that are considered to be contributing to the unexpectedly slow sales. Because the Superdome is farther away than other sites, fans must scramble to make airline arrangements and last-minute hotel reservations. In addition, KU students still will have classes in session because the tournament begins a week before spring break.
The Superdome will play host to
Kansas, Evansville, Kentucky,
New Mexico State, Washington,
Miami (OH), Utah and Arkansas
State, all of which were allotted
350 tickets per school to distribute.
"Each school was given 350 tickets, and we will use all 350," said Doug Vance, assistant athletics director.
Additional tickets may be purchased either at the Superdome box office or through Ticketmaster at (505) 522-5555. Tickets cost $90 for all three sessions and may be purchased for $30 per session after tomorrow.
Curl said, "We'll probably sell more for Sunday's game because of the possibility of Kansas playing Kentucky in the second round."

NCAA agrees to $54 million settlement
The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The NCAA agreed yesterday to pay $45.5 million to entry-level coaches who had sued because they were not being paid enough.
The governing body of college sports also agreed to drop its appeal of a judge's ruling in favor of about 2,000 Division I assistant coaches who had come under the "restricted-earnings" plan.
"This has been a long and — unfortunately — divisive issue," said Charles Wethington, NCAA executive committee chairman. "It has pitted employee against school and sometimes friend against friend."
The settlement was reached through mediation, and both parties had been trying to agree on a settlement figure since Feb.24.
Next step for the NCAA is deciding how to allocate the $54.5 million in damages among the 302 Division I schools. Attorneys' fees will come out of that figure.
Executive director Cedric Dempsey said the NCAA would contribute about $22 million from cost-saving measures the next three years, leaving the schools responsible for $32.4 million. He would not speculate on what the school-by-school allocation might be.
Dempsey pointed to two possible plans the NCAA committee is considering — one, dividing the total equally among all Division I schools, the other based on division by school size.
it is not likely the subcommittee's allocation plan will embrace either of these solutions," Dempsey said.
He said the NCAA would like to decide before the organization's next fiscal year begins in September.
Last year, the NCAA agreed to pay $2.5 million to settle a long-running suit brought by basketball coach Jerry Tarkanian and reached an agreement with the Justice Department allowing learning-disabled students to receive athletic scholarships.
The restricted-earnings rule was adopted as a cost-cutting move by a near-unanimous vote of Division I schools in 1991. The rule capped salaries for assistants in various sports at $12,000 for the academic year and $4,000 for the summer.
the rule was lifted in 1995 after a U.S. District judge in Kansas City, Kan., found the NCAA violated federal antitrust law. That ruling was upheld by an appellate court, and the U.S. Supreme Court refused to hear the case.
Following a trial last year on damages, a jury awarded the coaches more than $22 million. Because it was an antitrust case, damages were tripped to $67 million.
Last fall, the NCAA offered $44 million as a settlement, while the coaches sought $60 million. In January, a judge granted the coaches' motion to increase the damages to nearly $75 million to adjust for inflation.
"In cases of this type, there are consequences for everyone." Wethington said. "The important task at hand is to minimize adverse consequences for the student athletes."
NCAA says goodbye after 18 years in KC
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Like so many others who work for, with or near the NCAA, Carol Henry often feels saddened by the NCAA's sale to Indianapolis.
The Associated Press
On Sunday, after delivering food to the basketball selection committee at the Hyatt Hotel for the last time, she wept.
"It was really very touching," said Bill Hancock of the NCAA staff. "Carol had been delivering food to the committee there at the Hyatt for years and years. We had all gotten to know her."
For the men who work with the nine-man committee, and many veteran committee members themselves, there was a tinge of nostalgia to last weekend's proceedings, knowing it would be the last time the panel met in Kansas City.
line governing body of college sports, after taking bids from 10 cities and having the Arthur Andersen firm evaluate the monetary value of each bid, agreed to move its headquarters to Indianapolis for an announced figure of $50 million. The projected relocation date is July, which means when the committee meets next March to select, seed and bracket the 64-team tourney, they'll do it in a

early '70s, they began meeting at the NCAA office building in suburban Mission, Kan. Since 1983, about the time CBS began televising the announcement live, turning it into a major event, the committee had met on the 40th floor of the Hyatt Hotel.
"We exchanged moments with the hotel people. It was 18 years of memories," Hancock said. "And we had worked out everything so well with the Hyatt and its people. They knew exactly what we needed. I'd had the same sleeping room for 10 years. The facility lends itself to what we needed so well."
Tar Heels await Weber State in first-round West match-up
The Associated Press
CHAPEL HILL, N.C. — Quick, undersized teams can give North Carolina problems, meaning Weber State is capable of some trouble, in the first round of the NCAA tournament.

meet in the West
Regional tomorrow.
Coach Bill Guthridge said a pair of satellite dishes installed at the Smith Center years ago came in handy late Sunday when he and his staff dug up four taped games on 14th-seeded Weber State (24-7), a squad the Tar Heels knew little about.
NC
"I think they've got a couple of future NBA players," Guthridge said yesterday of 6-foot-6 forward Harold Arceneaux
and guard Eddie Gill. "That conference has a good history.
"They certainly like to break, but they can run a set offense, too. They start three guards, and if you count Arceneaux, they have four guards. So they are going to present match-up problems for us."
The Tar Heels (24-9), who are making their 25th straight NCAA tournament appearance and are seeking a 25-win season for the 15th time in the last 18 years, have one huge advantage — NCAA experience. North Carolina has won at least one game in the tournament for 18 straight years and been to the Final Four each of the last two years.
"I don't care about the Final Four no more. I want to win it," forward Ademola Okulaja said. "It's nice to say you've been to the Final Four. Then the next year again you said you were to the Final Four. But both times people say, 'What happened?' I don't want them to say, 'What happened?' I want to say I've won the whole thing and here is my ring."
"I've been spoiled the last three years playing in late March — and I'm not talking about the NIT," he
said of the Stanford squad that has gone 78-19 in his three years as an assistant to coach Mike Montgomery.
Johnson said he would remain with the Cardinal through the NCAA tournament but would mix in some recruiting for the Wolfpack at his native Seattle this week.
"I don't know who's more excited, you all or me," he told a small crowd that gathered for the hastily called
"I don't want to be in a position where we're always looking at UNLV." he said.
"I think this is very,very doable in terms of building a winner, building a program," Johnson, 42, said Monday on the Reno campus of the Big West Conference school.

Commentary
Princeton to meet Georgetown today in NIT showdown
Tigers and Hoyas set to rekindle rivalry
By Jeff Goodman The Associated Press
Ten years ago, Princeton nearly pulled off the biggest upset in NCAA tournament history. The Tigers get another crack at Georgetown, only this time in the NIT, which begins today with 16 games.
which beggars it.
The Tigers went into the 1989 NCAA tournament as a No. 16 seed but gave the top-seeded Hoyas a memorable first-round scare in which Georgetown held on 50-49. A No. 16 seed has never defeated a No. 1 seed in the history of the NCAA tournament.
"It's a different story now," Tigers senior guard Brian Earl said. "It's not on the same stage. It's the NIT as opposed to the NCAs. And they're not so much the powerhouse; we're not so much the underdog. I'm sure it sparks memories, but not many."
If the Tigers (20-7) win this time around, it wouldn't be much of a surprise. Princeton's chance to make the NCAA tournament slipped away in a loss to Pennsylvania in its final regular season game, while the Hoyas (15-15) were estatic just to make the NIT,
Both coaches from a decade ago are gone. Princeton's Pete Carrill
NCAA
stepped down three years ago, while the Hoyas' John Thompson resigned earlier this year, and the program was taken over by Craig Esherick, a Hoyas assistant since 1982.
"That game put our program on the map," said Coach Bill Carmody, the longtime assistant who took over from Carrill. "A win there would have been the same as a loss. We couldn't have gotten more publicity for winning or losing."
Other games include Xavier (21-8) at Toledo (19-7), Hofstra (22-9) at
Rutgers (18-12) Georgia (15-14) at Clemson (16-14), Seton Hall (15-14) at Old Dominion (24-8), Butler (20-9) at Bradley (17-11), Alabama (17-14) at Wake Forest (16-13) and Providence (16-13) at North Carolina State (18-13).
Also, it's Nevada-Las Vegas (16-12) at Nebraska (19-14), Pepperdine (19-13) at Colorado (17-14), Mississippi State (20-12) at Colorado State (17-10), Texas Christian (19-10) at Kansas State (20-12), Southern California (15-12) at Wyoming (17-9), Northwestern (15-13) at DePaul (17-12), Fresno State (21-11) at California (17-11) and Georgia Tech (15-15) at Oregon (16-11).
Since the near upset, Princeton has become a national fixture, going to six more NCAA tournaments and winning two first-round games.
The Hoyas have gone in the opposite direction, compiling a 31-30 record the past two seasons.
Georgetown finished 0-9 against NCAA teams this year as opposed to Princeton's 4-3 mark. But Georgetown's young starting lineup, which includes two freshmen and two sophomores, has recently come together, and the
Hoyas have won six of their last 10.
"They're getting better and better," Carmody said. "I watched films of the Rutgers and Providence games, and those kids aren't freshmen any more."
Unlike the last time they played when the Hoyas' primary scorer was Alonzo Mourning, Georgetown's scoring now comes from the backcourt and Anthony Perry's 14.3 average.
Princeton is led by seniors Gabe Lewullis and Earl. Lewullis averages 15 points per game and is best known for his lay-up as time expired to upset UCLA in the 1996 NCAA tournament.
"He's an explosive kind of player," said Earl, who played against Perry in high school in New Jersey. "He was good then, and I'm sure he's better now. I haven't seen much of Georgetown, but they always bring the athletes, and I'm sure they pack big guys down there who can get up near the rim."
Another interesting note to the game is that Thompson's sons will be facing each other as assistants.
Ronny Thompson is a Georgetown assistant, while John Thompson III will be on the Tigers bench.

UPPER MONTCLAIR, N. J. — Yogi伯莱根了观看猫 DjMaggio.Once Berra got to the New York Yankees, he continued
Yogi Berra remembers DiMaggio
BRUNO BERGAMO
DiMaggio: Remembered as a role member on the field
trying to solve the mystery of what made the Yankee Clipper one of the greatest ever.
The answer was simple: DiMaggio was perfect.
"Never did any thing wrong on the field. Never did." Berra said sitting
next to a gray 1939 DiMaggio road
jersey on display at Berra's baseball
museum.
Berra never saw DiMaggio dive for a ball.
"You'd see him run to second base, you'd say 'Where in the hell is he going?' Berra said Monday, the day DiMaggio died at age 84. "He got there."
"You've got to admire a man like that," Berra said of DiMaggio, his teammate from 1947 until DiMaggio retired in 1951.
Berra, the catcher who later joined DiMaggio in the Hall of Fame, said he watched DiMaggio play as a kid, growing up in St. Louis. When he came to the Yankees, DiMaggio was the man Berra and other younger players looked up to.
He didn't talk much about the injuries that caused him to leave the game, Berra said, although DiMaggio wouldn't play if he thought he would hurt his team.
Berra saw DiMaggio carefully guard his privacy through the years. Even decades after his marriage to Marilyn Monroe, Berra said, he never mentioned her. And no one else was allowed to mention her if they wanted to remain his friend.
"He was a Yankee, a true Yankee," Berra said.
Former Kansas player signs new contract with Phoenix
TEMPE, Ariz. — Kwamie Lassiter, whose NFC-leading eight interceptions helped the Cardinals to their first playoff berth since 1982, has re-signed with Arizona.
The Associated Press
four interceptions in a final game win against San Diego that clinched a wild-card berth for the Cardinals.
Lassiter, who spent most of his first three NFL seasons as a nickel back, a defensive back put in for long yardage situations, apparently passed up a more lucrative offer from San Diego.
He became a starter at midseason last year and capped the year with
The Tribute, a newspaper serving suburban Phoenix, reported yesterday that the deal was worth an estimated $3.6 million — nearly triple his 1988 salary of about $400,000 but about $300,000 short of the Chargers' offer.
The deal includes a $500,000 sign on the newspaper said.
"I went with what went down at the end of the season," Lassiter told The Tribune after agreeing to the
deal. "The players want to win, and it was a feeling I had."
Lassiter — one of four signing priorities for the Cardinals — had visited the Chargers about two weeks ago, and the team made its initial offer on Friday. It then worked hard to persuade Lassiter on Monday.
"The Chargers told me I'd come in to be a starter, but it's all talk until it happens," Lassiter said. "It was very close to me going there — real close."
Lassiter played for Kansas 1992- 94.
Unlikely Cardinal provides homers
The Associated Press
JUPITER, Fla. — On Mark McGwire's day off, the lightest-hitting St. Louis Cardinals player supplied the power.
Backup infielder David Howard, who has 10 homers in 1,501 career at bats during the regular season, hit two in his first two at bats yesterday in an 8-5 loss to the Baltimore Orioles.
Howard's output matched his 1998 season total. His career high of four came in 1996 for Kansas City.
ST LOUIS
CARDINALS
"I don't think I've got 70 my whole life," Howard said, a reference to McGwire's record total last year, "maybe between wiffle ball, Little League and everything I do."
The two solo homers came off Sidney Ponson, who gave up five hits in three innings.
Eli Marrero homered against Rocky Coppinger in the fourth and added an RBI single in the sixth. Sam Pickering hit a two-run homer in the ninth for Baltimore.
But the long-ball barrage didn't please all of the fans that much. Roger Dean Stadium is sold out throughout the spring, but several disgruntled fans left after finding out that McGwire wasn't playing.
"Anytime Mark doesn't play there's some grumbling," Cardinals manager Tony La Russa said.
"What can you do? All you can do is ask them, 'Would you rather see him play now and not this summer?' "
Rangers undefeated in last six meetings without Gretzky
The Associated Press
NEW YORK - The New York Rangers lost the Great One and suddenly began playing great hockey.
When Wayne Gretzky went down with a neck injury, Coach John Muckler put Petr Nedved in Gretzky's place on the first line. He told Nedved the team was counting on him to be a leader.
Nedved has responded with five goals and four assists in six games, and the Rangers are undefeated without Gretzky. They extended their streak to 5-0-1 with a 3-2 victory Monday night against Toronto, thanks to Nedved's latest heroics.
Nedved, acquired earlier this season from Pittsburgh, had two goals, including the winner on a power play with 17.3 seconds remaining in overtime. That canped a comback from a 2-0 deficit.
New York pulled into a tie for the eighth and last playoff spot in the NHL's Eastern Conference with 64 points.
Gretzky was examined Monday night by Dr. Patrick O'Leary, who reported no change to the status of his injury, a protruding disc in his neck. Gretzky will receive a cortisone injection within 48 hours and will be reexamined one week from the time of the injection.
Elsewhere in the NHL, Florida beat Montreal 5-2; Ottawa defeated Tampa Bay 9-3; and Carolina won against Buffalo 4-1.

Tutu: Won a Nobel Peace Prize for his work in South Africa
By Ezra Sykes
esykes@kanson.com
Kansas staff writer
An international figure of racial equality and peace soon will pay a visit to the University of Kansas.
Archbishop Desmond Tutu, who championed civil rights in South Africa, will speak at 7 p.m. April 18 in Allen Fieldhouse.
The public lecture, sponsored by Student Union Activities and Student Senate, is called "Bridging the Chasm Between Black and White."
Tutu, who holds more than 50 honorary degrees from universities throughout the world, has spent much of his life fighting apartheid in South Africa.
In 1984, Tutu won a Nobel Peace Prize recognizing him for his work in South Africa. In 1995, Nelson Mandela appointed him to lead South Africa's Reconciliation Commission, which had the goal of investigating crimes committed during apartheid.
Linda Luckey, assistant to the dean of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, said the archbishop played an incredibly large role in improving race relations.
"He's probably one of the two men in South Africa to articulate what was going on in apartheid," Luckey said. "I don't think that the United States would have paid attention if it weren't for Bishop Tutu and Nelson Mandela. He and Nelson Mandela are saints as far as forcing change in South Africa."
"He's going to be a wonderful speaker," she said.
Luckey said she had attended a speech by Tutu in 1986 at the University of Chicago. People began lining up at 6 in the morning for the speech that was in the afternoon.
Cody Simms, forums coordinator for SUA, said Tutu's appearance at the University was different from past speakers for the KU Student Lecture Series, such as Spike Lee and Michael Moore, in that Tutu was a person of international stature.
"Basically, I think that this is a unique experience for the University," Simms said. "He may be the biggest speaker to come through KU in a long time."
Student Senate is contributing $8,000 to pay for Tutu's appearance. SUA also will contribute, but has not signed a contract yet, Simms said.
Simms said the KU Student Lecture
Series was created so the University would have something similar to Kansas State's Landon Lecture Series, which consistently draws prominent figures.
Advance tickets are $5 for students with valid KUIDs, $8 at the door and $15 for non-students in advance, $20 at the door. Tickets go on sale at 8:30 a.m. Tuesday at the SUA, Lied Center, Murphy Hall box offices and at all Ticketmaster locations.

Tournament gambling still as illegal as ever

before entering an office or residence hall betteling pool for the NCAA basketball tournament, one might consider what the Kansas state law says about gam-
ball tournament, one might consider what the Kansas state law says about gambling.
According to the Kansas statutes, gambling is defined as making a bet, which the statutes also define as "a bargain in which the parties agree that, dependent upon chance, one stands to win or lose something of value specified in the agreement."
The statutes specify gambling or betting as a Class B misdemeanor, which is punishable by a $1,000 fine, six months in jail or both.
Although betting pools are illegal, that does not necessarily mean that gamblers will be prosecuted. Most activity generally is not reported, which gives people the idea that they are not violating the law.
"Office pools are against the law, and people shouldn't be doing them," said Sgt.
George T. Wheeler of the Lawrence Police Department.
Wheeler said the punishment for those caught gambling would be determined individually by a judge in a court hearing.
He said factors such as a previous criminal record or the amount of money involved could affect the punishment.
Lt. Schuyler Bailey of the KU Public Safety Office said there had not been

Other University officials also agreed that there were not a large number of instances of gambling on campus.
any investigations into illegal betting on campus in the past few years.
"It probably goes on, and if we have a complaint we will investigate it, but it has not been a problem," Bailey said.
Braxton Copley, a staff attorney at Legal Services for Students, said he could not remember any students getting into legal trouble because of gambling.
Wheeler said there had not been a large problem locally, but any complaints would be taken seriously.
Because of the nature of the laws regarding gambling pools, most people are not willing to volunteer information about their involvement in them.
"We've run into it from time to time," Wheeler said. "It will be investigated, and if it is true, people will be arrested."
Calls to several University offices revealed no current gambling pools, but some employees said there had been pools in the past.
Brian, a 22-year-old KU student who did not want his last name to be printed, said gambling pools were prevalent in his residence hall, and he knew of about six of them.
"The reason that I got into them was mainly for fun, but there is that big payoff at the end."

Jim Mielke, professor of anthropology, said he was very close to Vincent. He remembered Vincent for his ability to find humor in the most mundane aspects of everyday life.
"He was an absolutely wonderful, funny, intelligent and caring individual," Mielke said. "He could live up a room."
Vincent, who also was the faculty adviser for the Brazil-Portugal Organization, left in the middle of the Fall 1988 semester.
Mielke also said Vincent genuinely cared for his students.
"He was always there if anybody needed to talk about anything," he said.
Evers said that Vincent's energy helped her get ready for her next class, and that she always did better in the classes she taught after his class.
"I learned so much about teaching from him," Evers said. "He was funny. He was quick."

Union renovation progresses with talk
A small group of students, faculty and architects discussed ways that a future expansion and renovation of the Kansas Union could become more useful.
By EZR Sykes
esykes@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
The group met last night in Parlors A, B and C of the Union to talk about the proposed $4 million renovation to the north end.
Mark Bradshaw, fine arts senator, said his main concern for the Union renovation and expansion was that it should create more space for student organizations.
"There is something like three or 400 student organizations," he said. "There's just not enough space for groups that want it."
Two proposals for the renovations call for the organization and leadership suite, which is located on the fourth floor of the Union, to be expanded from 6,500 square feet to about 10,600 square feet.
Kenneth Stahle, who works for WTW Architects in Pittsburgh, is one of the two architects who developed the proposals for the University. He has helped create plans for 33 student unions.
Stable said that integrating student and faculty ideas into the project could sometimes be difficult but that he thought everyone generally would be satisfied.
Stahle said he and his partner were preparing to submit two plans to the University. Administrators will then review the plans and find a local architecture firm to handle the project.
"It's working out," he said.
"But you must understand that all these things must be done within the budget. Everyone may not be 100 percent satisfied, but I think most will be at least 80 percent satisfied."
The proposal also would add a larger organization and leadership suite with several cubicles and offices, an art gallery, administrative offices, a new technology and copy center and a new cafe lounge.
Bradshaw said he wanted the Union to be a place where students could feel comfortable. He believes that an open area for Senate would promote interaction between senators and students.
"It helps keep us accountable" he said. "It is easy, if you're tucked away in a corner, to not be responsive."

Man seen masturbating in van near post office
A man was seen masturbating in his parked van at about 5:40 p.m. on the south side of the post office, 645 Vermont St., said Officer Dave Anderson of the Lawrence Police Department.
The owner of the car parked in the stall next to the van was returning from the office office when she looked over and saw the man sitting in the driver's seat with the window rolled down, Anderson said.
"She said that she wouldn't have even noticed him except his enthusiastic self-manipulation called her attention." Anderson said.

KU student places ninth in sports writing contest
Sam Mellinger, Lawrence junior, took ninth place in the sports writing category in the 39th annual Journalism Awards Program of the William Randolph Hearst Foundation.
Mellinger won for a story about the remodeling being done at Robinson Center. The story ran in the Nov. 18, 1998, issue of the University Daily Kansan.
The contest featured 76 writers from 47 universities nationwide.
"I thought it was pretty good just because of all the work I put into it," Mellinger said of the story.
The award provides Mellinger, who will intern with the Cincinnati Enquirer this summer, with $500.

Art historian to speak about esoteric Buddhism
"I don't know what I'm going to do with that yet," Mellinger said. "My car needs a little work, so maybe that."
A distinguished artist historian is calling Lawrence his home for two weeks.
Helmut Brinker, professor of art history at the University of Zurich, Switzerland, is the 20th lecturer in the annual Murphy Lectures in Art. He will speak about esoteric Buddhism at 7 tonight at the Spencer Museum of Art auditorium.
Brinker invited everyone — not just art history majors — to attend the lecture.
"Esoteric Buddhist art is difficult to understand," Brinker said. "But if you see it, you generally get something out of it." He invited even one — not just art
Esoteric, or Vajrayana Buddhism, is one of three types of Buddhism, Brinker said. Buddhism and its art also incorporate other cultures.

House bill could protect airline passengers' rights
WASHINGTON — Bolstered by passengers' tales of alleged mistreatment by airline companies, the administration and Congress are moving to improve protections of air travelers' rights.
"We have struck a raw nerve here," House Transportation Committee Chairman Bud Shuster, R-Pa., told a packed hearing room. "I can't walk through the halls here without members and constituents telling me their horror stories."
Shuster has introduced a bill — one of several "passenger bill of rights" measures now working their way through Congress — that would require airlines to pay compensation to passengers kept waiting on a runway more than two hours, provide explanations for delays and cancellations and give refunds for flights canceled for economic reasons, among other things.
Vice President Al Gore and Transportation Secretary Rodney Slater, meanwhile, introduced yesterday the administration's plans for legislative and regulatory action.
The administration's proposed legislation would require airlines to:
- Disclose publicly their flight delay and cancellation policies
— Provide food and restroom facilities during delays
— Draw up evacuation procedures for extended delays and bumping
— Provide notices on lower-priced ticket outlets
- Double the maximum compensation for mishandled baggage to $2,500, and for being bumped from a flight to $800
Tell the Transportation Department monthly about complaints about their service.
Elizabeth Dole creates exploratory committee
DES MOINES, Iowa — Elizabeth Dole moved a step closer to a full-fledged campaign for president yesterday, announcing the formation of an exploratory committee and saying she sees "a great American yeaing" "that she is ready to fulfill."
Highlighting her qualifications in the race for the 2000 Republican nomination, Dole said she had worked for five presidents — and had held two Cabinet posts — but she also sought to separate herself from other political candidates.
"What does a woman like me have to offer the country?" she asked. "I'm not a politician and, frankly, today I think that may be a plus."
She pointed to her experience as secretary of labor and secretary of transportation as well as her eight years
heading the American Red Cross.
"That's experience and that's what counts," said Dole. "I'm not a seat-warmer. I want to get in there and make a difference."
Her speech was heavy on themes and light on specifics.
"I want to hear from you, this is a people-to-people effort on my part," Dole told more than 400 backers who jammed a rally. "We're going to be laying out positions on all these issues, but we're going to be doing it in a thoughtful way."
Yugoslav president fails to sign new peace deal
WORLD
BELGRADE, Yugoslavia — At top U.S.
organizer failed to persuade
Yugoslavia's president to sign onto a new Kosovo peace deal yesterday. Along the border, Yugoslav forces backed by tanks torched the homes of ethnic Albanians and sent hundreds fleeing.
Three bodies were found — at least two of them men who had been shot in the back in Ivaja, a hamlet near the Macedonia border, where homes that had been burned still smoldered. Residents said neither was a rebel in the separatist Kosovo Liberation Army.
Fighting on the day that Yugoslav President Slobodan Milosevic met with U.S. peace envoy Richard Holbrooke also broke out near Vucit, 18 miles from Pristina, the provincial capital of Kosovo. Reporters at the scene said government forces were backed by 10 tanks and two armored personnel carriers.
A neighbor said one of the victims had called on a mobile phone to say that Serb police were coming into the village and that residents were going to make a run for it.
Holbrooke pressed Milosevic to accept a peace plan or risk NATO strikes during more than four hours of face-to-face meetings yesterday.
Fifty-four young women murdered in last six years
CUIDAD JUAREZ, Mexico — All of Consuelo giro Gonzalez's senses are heightened each night around 1 a.m. when she steps off the bus onto a desolate dirt road near her home.
"I get off, and then I take off running because of how afraid I am," said the 30-year-old mother of three.
Many of the victims were thin and dark-complexioned, with long hair. Most were raped and then stranded or stabbed, their bodies dumped in the desert on the outskirts of town. At least a dozen worked in the booming assembly plants known as masquadoras.

Visitor's Center nears completion of final details
By Lori O'Toole
Special to the Kansan
Piecing together the cast of a pterodactyl with a 23-foot wingspan in the foyer of the new Visitor's Center could be tricky.
The prehistoric bird is only one of the finishing touches University of Kansas departments now are working on for the center, which opened in January.
Facilities operations is overseeing several projects such as tearing down the old information booth, landscaping the area around the center and making the campus entrance more physically attractive and more user-friendly.
On Feb. 16, crews removed a concrete island from 15th Street, which will make the left turn into the Visitor's Center parking lot easier. Buses are now running from campus to the center every 30 minutes.
Mike Richardson, facilities operations director, said the building's parking lot almost was complete after the recent addition of a wheelchair ramp. The lot will provide at least 100 reserved visitor spots.
Richardson said the landscaping project was financed with $17,000 from the provost's office. It was designed by Gregory Wade, Design and Construction Management Landscape Architect.
Wade said the plan contained a variety of plants including deciduous and evergreen shrubs, Norway Maple trees and soil stabilizing ground covers.
"I planned it to have special color emphasis in the spring and fall, but it will be attractive all year round." Wade said.
One of the more difficult projects facilities operations crews are working on is the removal of the information booth located in front of the Visitor's Center.
Warren Corman, University architect, said the booth had directed visitors to campus locations for at least 15 years, but that it was no longer needed.
Bud Stallworth, design and construction management assistant director, said a lead and asbestos test found traces of asbestos in the booth's roof.
"It isn't a significant amount, but it must be handled safely," Stallworth said.
An abatement contractor will be hired to remove the contaminated area before demolition, which Stallworth said would occur in three to four weeks. The demolition only should take a couple of days to complete.
New signs that direct visitors around campus eventually will be erected in front of the center.
Margie Frederick, Visitor's Center coordinator, said the various projects would have a strong effect on prospective students and visitors.
"The initial impression is so important," Frederick said. "The corner of 15th and Iowa is now the front door to campus."
The deadline for all of the projects is April 28, when the center will offer an informal open house.

males and no females."
Liu said she wanted this year's campaign to be positive and focused on students.
"No back-stabbing, no smear campaigning, no harassment," she said. "In the past, on all sides, candidates have been more reactive than pro-active, and we really mean to change that this year."
Liu said she and Hoffman relied on the support and input of the coalition's 55 candidates, less than 10 of whom have previously been senators, and about 100 "friends of the force," or student supporters.
Hoffman said he wanted to improve the way all students were represented, instead of just representing a small minority.
"Now, and since Senate began, it has been a self-serving organization where you become a senator to beef up your resume, or you run for student body president so that you can later run for governor," he said.
Hoffman said senators' ideas often are rejected and other students are hesitant to voice their concerns. He said that if he was elected, he would ensure that Senate would not be an exclusive organization.
Also, Hoffman said, Senate would work on one major issue each month, such as the reorganization of Senate, parking, campus safety, citywide transportation and bike lanes, so that at least 10 major issues would be resolved by the end of the year.
Delta Force's five major campaign platforms are the improvement and expansion of e-mail kiosks and technology to the
Kansas Union and residence halls, campus safety, the University's corporate contracts and socially responsible investment, recreation and integrated public transportation and bike lanes.
Hoffman said the development of the Safewalk program would include student patrol of the campus by individuals trained by the KU Public Safety Office to prevent vandalism and provide escorts at night.
He said the University's contracts with Coca-Cola and Commerce Bank lacked student and faculty input and the consideration of environmental impact and social responsibility. In addition, he said, the student representatives on the committees that made the decisions should have been more aggressive.
Hoffman said the survey data used in the recreation task force's recreation center proposal was flawed and that the proposed cost did not include operating costs, which would add up to about $70 per semester.
"They're being really vague," Hoffman said. "We're going to work on making sure that students know the whole story. There are other options like taking a look at expanding Robinson to the South."
Ray Dalton, Lansing junior and Delta Force candidate for College of Liberal Arts and Sciences senator, said he decided to join the coalition because he agreed with its platforms.
"Delta Force is trying to get rid of apathy," he said. "I'm not a big fan of partisanship, and they're trying to change that."

Senators' suspension appropriate example of upholding criterion
As representatives of the student body, student senators are obligated to actively participate in Senate. Accordingly, StudEx acted appropriately when it suspended six senators with excessive absences.
Two senators were removed from their positions and three others were removed from the University Council. One senator successfully appealed her suspension.
Senators are allowed three unexcused and two excused absences from general Senate meetings. Committee members cannot miss two or more meetings a semester or three meetings each academic year.
Senate seats, University Council participation requires dedication, attendance.
As members of one of the most influential institutions at the University, senators resolve issues that affect the students they represent. Understandably, being a senator involves a major commitment not only to the students but also to spending time researching issues and attending meetings.
Disregarding these commitments is simply intolerable. Senators win their seats because of student voters, who entrust them with the
responsibility of guarding student rights and working for a better university. If senators think that the responsibility is too much of a burden, they don't deserve the office and should resign. It's an injustice to the students if their representatives cannot do their jobs.
Furthermore, StudEx deserves commendation for working promptly to reprimand the senators at fault and replace them. The action should serve as a catalyst for senators to question their pledge to serve students. And, as Senate elections approach, hopefully candidates will understand what duties the positions bring.

Kansas noted for women in politics
This is good news for Kansas. The high percentage of female legislators shows that the voice of women is being heard in Kansas politics.
According to the Center for the American Woman in Politics, the 1999 Kansas Legislature ranks fifth in the nation for percentage of women legislators.
The Kansas Legislature is 30.3 percent female. Washington has the highest percentage of women lawmakers at 40.8 percent.
Just a generation ago, a 30 percent female legislature would have been unthinkable. Our mothers saw the beginning of political opportunities for women. Many of them still chose not to participate in politics.
Today, women are encouraged to be
1999 trend spotlights the increasing presence of female legislators in the statehouse.
politically active. From childhood, women are taught that they have a right to have their voices heard.
One reason that there isn't a 50-50 split in the legislature is that more men had been successful in their careers and had positioned themselves to be good candidates. This is changing.
There are more women than men enrolled at universities today. As they go through life, they probably will be more successful than their mothers were.
The majority of politicians traditionally were financially successful and older. Women who are 40 or 50 had fewer choices than women who are 20 or younger.
When the time comes for today's students to make up our Congress and state legislature, the percentage of women participating undoubtedly will be higher than 30 percent.
Kansas has been a leader in allowing women political rights. Kansas was the first state to allow women to vote in municipal elections in 1887 and elected the first female mayor in the nation.
The fifth-place ranking for women in the legislature is a positive sign that women are gaining political equality. It is a trend that everyone should applaud and encourage.

Charity event, acting celebrates 50th curtain
In 1949, a business student named Roy Wonder saw the need for a campuswide student variety show. He envisioned a show similar to Kansas State University's program, "Y-Orpheum."
I will do my best.
Jamie Patterson opinion@kansan.com
The letter, which was from Ross Miller — producer of K-State's show — started a war-of-words between the two schools. Student interest and support increased as the "war" continued.
No one knew that Wonder and Miller were good friends. Miller had written the letter in an effort to generate student support.
Later that year, 1,500 people paid 15 cents to see the first Rock Chalk Revue, and one of the greatest Jayhawk traditions began.
After announcing his idea to a lukewarm student body, a letter appeared in the Unter-
Since 1949, thousands of students have walked away from the University inspired by Rock Chalk Revue. More than 200 skits have been staged, poking fun at everything from cafeteria food to University officials.
It worked.
For the past 50 years, students have united to create a show that has generated hundreds of thousands of dollars for charity.
Through times of campus unrest and in the face of changing times, the Revue has been a constant part of campus life. The changing world has been reflected in the show's history with skits addressing everything from the sexual revolution in the '60s to rural Kansas life during the '50s.
Perhaps Rock Chalk Revue has survived all these years because of the impact it has made on our community.
One thing that often is forgotten is the reason the Rock Chalk Revue exists — to
Considering the extensive history of the show, it is amazing to think it started with just one man.
Although he brought the variety show to the University, perhaps a little too much credit is given to Roy Wonder.
better our community.
Rock Chalk Revue is one of the largest student-run philanthropies in the nation.
Last year, the Revue raised nearly $43,000 for the United Way of Douglas County. About 34,000 hours of community service were completed by hundreds of KU students.
Despite the general assumption that Rock Chalk Reve is an all-greek effort, students from throughout campus have united to give selflessly to the United Way.
This year, 30 living organizations volunteered in the hopes of topping last year's total.
What will not be seen on stage are the efforts of the 30 living organizations that participated in the community service aspect of the Revue. Students will not see the community service coordinators who have worked all year to manage the charitable efforts of their organizations. And students will not see the members of the community who will benefit from the support of Rock Chalk Revue.
As the applause reaches the stage in a gesture to the actors, the applause also will be supporting the volunteers and the United Way of Lawrence.
As the Lied Center fills this weekend, the casts of five shows will present the culmination of months of hard work.
I doubt Roy Wonder would have imagined that Rock Chalk Revue would be thriving 50 years later.
-
Who would have thought that when Wonder saw a need for a campus variety show, this weekend's Revue would result?
Perhaps Wonder does deserve every inch of credit for this Jahawk tradition.
Rock Chalk Revue could not simply serve as a steadfast tradition and successful philanthropy.
It is the result of one man recognizing the need within a community and acting on that void.
Rock Chalk Revue serves as evidence of the ability within each of us to change our corner of the world.
In creating Rock Chalk Revue, Wonder created a show that has touched thousands of lives and united many more in the spirit of goodwill.
Here's to the past 50 years and to the hope of 50 more.
May wonders never cease.

Grandmother's passing brings home importance
Hearing him say those words to her was like a cue to me, so I also leaned in, pressed the first two fingers of my right hand to my lips, repeated the words he had just used and then touched my fingers to her cheek.
I walked slowly up to her casket, clutching my brother's right arm above his elbow. My brother and I looked at her, not sure what to do or say. Finally, he
not sure what to do or leaned in a little, and I heard him say, in a voice barely above a whisper, "I love you, grandma."
Mary Jane Huffman
fingers touched her skin, I pulled them away, as though her skin had burned me. But her skin was cold and felt like leather. I don't know what I expected her to feel like. I guess I imagined she would feel in death the way she had always felt in life, warm and loving. She didn't.
After the ceremony, we all piled into our cars and drove through the wind and snow to the cemetery to lay her to rest.
But after the minister said a prayer over her closed casket, and we each took a rose and laid it on top, I still couldn't help feeling something was missing.
But as quickly as my
And as we drove back out of the cemetery. I realized what it was that was missing — her.
Throughout my life, she always had been there. When I stopped by her house on a whim, I knew she would be sitting in the living room in her favorite chair.
There was nothing profound and deep about our relationship. It was just special and comfortable because she was my grandma, and I was her granddaughter. She was someone I always could talk to and depend on for honest answers to my questions — the simple and the hard ones.
As we drove down the road, I looked back at the cemetery and wanted to cry again. It
And now, nearly a year after her death,
I'm still struggling to find the answers to
the questions that swim around in my head.
I wish that I had told her goodbye.
Every day, I wish things could have been different, but the practical side of me knows they can't.
I had sat in a chair next to her bed the night before she died and stroking her cheek told her I loved her. But I don't know if she heard me. And I almost told her goodbye but decided to save that until morning, until I was leaving. I didn't want her to think I had given up on her.
was like we were forgetting her. We were leaving her there all by herself with no one to take care of her, no one to talk to her or keep her company. It didn't seem right.
She had spent the last 73 years of her life taking care of us, watching over us, helping to make sure we had everything we wanted and needed out of life, and now, we were deserting her.
But morning never came for her, and I never got to say my goodbye.
I knew that it was just a body that they would lower into the ground and cover with dirt once we were gone. But it didn't feel like that to me. It was my grandma.
Why didn't I spend more time with her while she was still here? Why didn't I ever tell her how much I loved her and how much she meant to me? Why did God have to take one of the kindest and gentlest people in the world and give her to cancer?
And now I look at her picture everyday and wish she were back. I wish that when I walked in her front door that she would swivel around in her maroon rocker to see who it was, but I know she won't and won't ever again.
My grandma has been a big part of my life since I was born. And as a 21-year-old, I have to face the rest of my life without her wisdom, without her encouragement, without her smile. And that, most of all, scares me.

Senator seeks lockers as part of new Union
By Nadia Mustafa

Kansan staff writer
Students may be able to store their books and other belongings in 25-cent lockers in the Kansas Union after its renovation.
the Student Senate University Affairs committee passed a resolution last night requesting that administrators involved with Union renovation plans include financing and space for lockers.
For the request to be formal, Senate must pass the resolution next Wednesday.
The renovations are scheduled to be completed in Fall 2000.
Michael Henry, non-traditional senator and the resolution's cosponsor, said the lockers would be available to all students, but that he submitted the resolution primarily for non-traditional students.
He said that many of the 3,500 non-traditional students at the University of Kansas went to the Union between classes instead of going home and that they had special storage needs because they commuted to and from campus or had diverse family needs.
"This would also aid undergraduates who don't have office space and have heavy reading loads," Henry said. "I think this is a conventional idea that they overlooked."
The resolution did not include the number or type of lockers or how much it would cost to include them in the renovations.
Henry said he left the request vague so students on the Union renovation planning committee would have flexibility when discussing the issue with administrators.
in other business, James Kitchen, associate vice chancellor and dean of students, encouraged members of the Multicultural Affairs committee to work with the Office of Minority Affairs to retain minority students.
Kitchen said minority enrollment on KU campuses was low. There were 1,875 African-American, Hispanic and Native-America students enrolled at the University in Fall 1998.
STUDENT SENATE
In other business, Senate committees passed bills last night to provide the following financing:
$ 373 to the Course Content Subcommittee to improve and publicize the KU Course Content Web site and recognize faculty members who have posted their syllabuses.
$5,400 to KU Environs for Earth Day on April 24 in South Park. The money will pay talent fees for Cosey Nell, an environmentalist and musician, and Adam Werhack, president of the Sierra Club.
$328 in basic financing to KU Lead, a new student leadership organization.
$183 in basic financing to the KU Polish Club, another new student organization
For the groups to receive funding Senate must pass the bills next Wednesday.
Also, he said the attrition rates of minority undergraduate students, mostly African Americans, Hispanics and Native Americans, were high. From Fall 1996 to Fall 1997, 15.3 percent of African-American, 12 percent of Hispanic and 12.6 percent of Native-American students did not return to the University.
He said the University did not know why many minority students enrolled at the University during the fall semester would leave during the spring.
"A lot of work needs to be done to retain minority students," Kitchen said. "We cannot sit back and wait for someone to implement programs for minorities."
Kitchen said it was embarrassing to see that the retention rates of all minorities were so low.
Kitchen said he was going to hire people to implement a minority retention program, which would include a focus on mentorship and leadership through study groups, outreach and networks.

Charity co-founder brings alternative views to University
Activist describes harm caused by U.S. sanctions
By Jamie Knodel
jknodel@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
The U.S. military sanctions are responsible for more harm than productivity in resolving the crisis with Iraq, one activist and humanitarian said.
Don Mosley, one of the founders of Habitat for Humanity and Jubilee Partners, a place for international refugees to become oriented with the United States, spoke to roughly 40 people last night as a part of the Ecumenical
Mosley also will speak at 7:30 tonight at the
Christian Ministries' University Forum. Mosley said the United States should find alternative methods to military intervention in the Middle East.
Lawrence Public Library, 701 Vermont.
"We should find other ways that lead to peace," Mosley said. "At this time in our history, the U.S. has so many opportunities to be a peacemaker. The methods we've been employing for years are becoming increasingly counterproductive."
He said that the sanctions were supposed to weaken Saddam Hussein's image, but that they were having the opposite effect because they made the U.S. government look as though it did not care about innocent people dying.
"Why aren't we concerned, as a nation, that each month thousands of children are dying in Iraq because of U.S. sanctions," Mosley said.
The U.S. humanitarian sanctions included bans on food, medicine and medical supplies. Mosley said the sanctions were sowing seeds of destruction, alienation and terrorism.
Others agree that the sanctions are harmful to the citizens of Iraq. "The sanctions are not justified ethically or pragmatically. They are hurting Iraqi people," said
Deborah Gerner, associate professor of political science. "Invariably this type of bombing kills and maims civilians as well as military targets."
Mosley said he had organized three trips to Iraq since the Gulf War. He encouraged reporters and photographers to travel with him to report on the impact the war had on civilians.
He said that last year he had delivered $122,000 worth of medicine and medical supplies, although the delivery was against sanctions.
"I've been threatened with 12 years in prison because of the delivery, but it helped innocent people out," he said.
Mosley was surprised at Iraq's response to Americans.
"These people's sense of forgiveness and openness to rebuild friendships is amazing," he said.
Mosley said students should become active in the efforts to lift the humanitarian sanctions the United States had in place against Iraq.
He said the most important way for students to become involved was to educate themselves about the facts and create a forum for which both the U.S. and Iraqi sides could be presented.
Lofi Bennour, African Studies professor, said he was encouraged by Mosley's discussion.
"Nowadays we can talk, but I hope it's not to late," Bennour said. "It's all about discovering the truth. The sooner we begin to dialogue, the better the future will be."
Mosley said writing letters to Congress allowed students' opinions to be considered in reforming foreign policy.
"Students' letters count no less than anyone else's", Mosley said.
He also encouraged students passionate about the cause to pursue opportunities to go to Iraq.
Thad Holcombe, director of the Ecumenical Christian Ministries, said there were several opportunities for students to show their support of Iraqi civilians. These included wearing orange ribbons and participating in a letter-writing campaign.
Holcombe said these efforts would help show the urgency for removing the sanctions on Iraq.
Holcombe also said that two vigils were planned to raise the consciousness of the problem. The vigils will be held from 12:30 to 1 p.m. today in the Kansas Union and from 12:30 to 1:30 p.m. Sunday in front of the courthouse.

Jayhawks face shooting Ace
By Kevin C. Wilson
kwilson@kansan.com
Kansas sportswriter
Although the Kansas Jayhawks limited Michael Jordan to 12 points on five-of-16 shooting, they haven't been nearly as successful at shutting down other team's high-scoring guards.
Granted, that M.J. was not the Jordan of NBA lore, but rather a senior guard at Pennsylvania who averages 15.3 points per game. So, it actually was a decent defensive performance compared to the numerous times this season that perimeter players have tortured the Jayhawks.
Texas Tech's Rayford Young exploded for an eye-popping 41 points against the Jayhawks. Gonzaga's Matt Santengelo, who was named the West Coast Player of the Year and honorable mention All-American, lit up the Jayhawks for 24 points. Big 10 Freshman of the Year Cary Bradford of Illinois drained six-of-seven three-pointers on his way to 26 points against Kansas. Colorado's Jaquay Walls burned the Jayhawks for 23 and 22 points in their two games, and Oklahoma State's Adrian Peterson torched Kansas for 23 points on Senior Night.
The Jayhawks hope to reverse that trend when they face Evansville's sharp shooting guard Marcus Wilson in the first round of the NCAA Tournament on Friday night in New Orleans.
"He's a youngster that we've got our hands full trying to guard," Williams said. The 6-foot-3 senior, who is a native of
South Bend, Ind., was named the Missouri Valley Conference Player of the Year after averaging 20.3 points per game for the Purple Aces, good for second-best in the conference.
"He is just a great shooter," Williams said. "You can't give him an open look, and if you foul him, it's just like giving him a lay-up."
Wilson led the conference in free throw percentage (89.5 percent), finished sixth in three-point percentage (46.2 percent) and his 80 three-pointers were tops in the league. The senior guard scored 20 or more points in 18 games this season, including three games of 30 or more. And on Feb. 28, Wilson became just the second player in Evansville history to score 2,000 points in his career, and he is one of the nation's top four active career scorers.
Williams said he would not resort to using any gimmick defenses to stop Evansville's prolific scorer unless he had no other choice.
"I don't expect us to play it, but we've had the point one (defense) every year I've been here, and if we felt like that would help us win, we would play it." Williams said. "I just like to line up and play people solid man-to-man."
Williams said that any number of Jayhawks could get the assignment of guarding Wilson, although each player has his drawbacks.
"Jeff is really good on the basketball, but he doesn't have enough size." Williams said. "Ryan gives you that size, yet he's not able to put quite as much
pressure on. Marlon (London) gives you a little bit of both, but is not as intense.
"Right now we don't have the Jacque Vaughn or the Jorod Haase or the Steve Woodberry to really shut somebody down," Williams said. "But we've got guards that, defensively, I'm comfortable with and have confidence in."
Robertson said there are plenty of things he is going to do to try and limit
Wilson's production.
"With a good shooter you've got to get a hand up," Robertson said. "You've got to contest every shot and make sure that he doesn't get any easy shots. It also try to not let him get the ball. It's a lot easier to guard somebody or to stop somebody from scoring if they don't have the ball."

Looking back on the 1998-99 regular season, Kansas forward Lynn Pride has no regrets.
why should she? Her team finished 22.9, secured its 10th consecutive 20win season and claimed its eighth straight NCAA Tournament bid. Even a disappointing No. 9 in the Midwest Regional, which Coach Marian Washington referred to as ridiculous, can not overshadow a successful season.
Pride could not bring home some individual awards many fans assumed she would rake in when post-season play rolled around. Last week, Texas Tech's Angie Braziel was crowned Big 12 Conference Player of the Year, despite Pride being named the award's preseason selection. Tuesday, Pride was overlooked as an All-American selection, but was named as honorable mention along with Iowa State's Stacey
Frese and Nebraska's Nicole Kubik
She knows exactly what she's talking about. On Jan. 20, the Jayhawks lost at Colorado and fell to 3-3 in the Big 12 and 13-6 overall. Pride averaged more than 22 points per game in those first six conference games, but the team was struggling.
"Those awards don't mean anything to me," Pride said. "If I'm scoring 30 points a game, and we're still losing, it doesn't do any good."
Pride took four fewer shots on average per game throughout the remainder of the Big 12 schedule and subsequently averaged only 17 points per game. She said the team's accomplishments were more important to her than any personal honors.
11
Other players would have to play larger roles for the team to get back on track.
The Jayhawks won eight of their next nine games, as inside players Jaclyn Johnson and most-notably Nakia Sanford increased their productivity in a more balanced offensive attack.
"I don't regret that decision at all," Washington said of Pride's reduced scoring. "Every team knew they needed to stop her, and they focused on doing that. It opened up opportunities for other players."
Pride's unselfish team-oriented attitude comes as no surprise to her teammates.
If Kansas hopes to advance in the NCAA Tournament, though, it will need Pride to improve on her 3 of 9, seven-point performance against Iowa State in the semi-finals of the Big 12 Tournament.
"She loves being part of the team and lifting everybody up," said guard Brooke Reves. "She's a player that makes others look good."
Pride said she had not given a second thought to postseason awards and was focused on first-round opponent Marquette.
"All that matters is that we advance in the tournament," she said.

Commentary
Williams refutes new Earl rumor pairing forward with Master P
Lester Earl and rumors appear to be permanent partners.
Editor's Note—This column ran in yesterday's Kansas City Star and has been reprinted with special permission from The Star
The latest rumor to engulf Earl surrounds his relationship with rap-music mogul-turned-sports agent Master P, who is also known as Percy Miller. Master P, like Earl, hails from
The rumors will only intensify this week when Earl, a junior forward, and the Kansas Jayhawks head to New Orleans for the opening round of the NCAA Tournament. Kansas opens play Friday night against Evansville.
Dester Earl and rumor's appearance to be permanent patrols. From his controversial falling-out with former Louisiana State coach Dale Brown to his controversial transfer to Kansas to his controversial involvement in the NCAA investigation of LSU's recruiting tactics, rumors have dogged Earl's collegiate career.
Baton Rouge and calls New Orleans home. He also was hired recently to represent Heisman Trophy winner Ricky Williams.
It seems you can't go anywhere in Lawrence without hearing an Earl-Master P story. The buzz around campus is that Master P is financially supporting Earl, including providing Earl with the newer model Yukon truck that Earl drives.
Tuesday, I drove to Lawrence and talked with Kansas coach Roy Williams about Earl and Master P. Kansas declined to make Earl available. Williams was very forthright. He didn't duck a question. He admitted that Kansas and the NCAA have closely investigated Earl's relationship
T. C. MAYES
Jason Whitlock

with Master P, and Williams is certain there is nothing improper about their "acquaintanceship."
Williams also admitted that he would prefer that Earl not drive the Yukon truck that a lifelong friend of the Earl family provided.
"I'm mad about the truck," Williams said. "(Lester) knows that. That was one of the items we discussed with the NCAA. We checked into it ourselves. We allowed the NCAA to take a look into it themselves. We told them who owned the truck, stories that we'd been given, the whole bit. They checked into it a second time after we did."
"I've told Lester," Williams said, "Lester, you've got to watch every move you make. You're in the public eye. . . You can't associate yourself with just anybody like other people can because you're always going to be under such scrutiny because of what's happened in your past."
Williams is upset about the truck because he realizes it amplifies the scrutiny of Earl, who admitted accepting money from LSU boosters during his recruitment and one semester stay at LSU.
winnams wasn't aware of a possible Master P-Earl connection until last July, when he was at an Adidas basketball camp in Los Angeles. Thad Fuchee, Earl's high school summer-league coach, approached Williams and informed him that there were rumors swirling that Master P and Earl were in L.A. together. The NCAA forbids college athletes from signing with an agent.
"Is that fair to him? Not really. But what I said to him is that "You brought it on yourself."
Williams said he immediately tried to reach Earl by phone but was unsuccessful. Williams then called Earl in Louisiana and left a message for Earl to contact him immediately. Earl left a message with a KU assistant coach that he was in L.A., working out with former Javhawk Paul Pierce.
Williams said he and Earl never formally discussed the Los Angeles visit until Earl returned to Lawrence in August.
"I told Lester," Williams said, "I need to know what is going on, 'cause I hear you're out in Los Angeles with Master P. Lester, what in the world are you doing?"
wmans said Earl repeated that he was in L.A. working out with Pierce.
"Tell you what. We're going to check into some things," Williams told Earl.
Williams instructed KU's NCAA compliance officials to interview Earl, and he issued Earl a stern warning.
"You are not playing for our team this year." Williams fumed at Earl, "until I find out everything. Everything has to be above board."
Williams admitted: "I was mad at him at that time. Probably as mad as I've ever been at him."
According to Williams, Earl's story checked out with KU's compliance department. Earl flew to LA. with friends from Baton Rouge with no connections to Master P, and Earl stayed at a female friend's apartment. But the story didn't end there. At the beginning of the basketball season, the NCAA investigated Earl's trip to LA.
Evidently, someone gave the same story to the NCAA." Williams said. "We cooperated with the NCAA, told them everything we had heard and found out. We brought Lester in

Try not to lose your temper with an older person today, especially the one who hands out the grades or paychecks. You might think this person doesn't like you, but the opposite is likely more true. You've been making a very good impression lately.
Taurus (April 20-May 20): Today is a 6
Taurus (april 20-24 may)Today is **Taurus** if you can start your weekend early, you really ought to do it. This is a fabulous day to travel, with a couple of minor annoyances. You can get by those relatively easily, if you watch where you're going. You also need to watch what you're saying.
Gemini (May 21-June 21): Today is a 5
There's an argument brewing today, but it doesn't concern you personally, so you'd be wise to stay out of it. The people who are hassling each other can reach a compromise more quickly if they don't get nervous. Just focus on the job you're supposed to be doing, and let them work it out among themselves.
Cancer (June 22-July 22): Today is a 5
You may have to shout today to be heard above all the noise and confusion. If you can make sure your ideas get across through subterrain ways, by all means, go ahead. You're a master at innuendo, but today it might take something a little bolder than that. Don't be afraid to speak up.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Today is a 5
Virao (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Today is a 6
The work you you've been putting off all week is finally going to catch up with you. Don't let it take you by surprise. Be prepared, and be willing to work over time if necessary, but don't complain.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Today is a 5
The work you've been doing lately should be starting to show results. You can stop trying to convince your friends that it's all been worthwhile. They'll be able to see that with their own eyes.
Looks like somebody's pushing you to make a decision, but you're not quite ready yet. Don't let yourself get pressured into acting hastily. Decisions are not easy for Libras under the best of circumstances, and when you get rattled, you'll choose badly.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Today is a 5
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Today is a 6 If you're running into a bunch of new problems today congratulations. That means you've solved all the old ones. It's always a sign of growth when you don't know what you're doing.
Sagittarius (NOV. 22-DEC. 21, 2014)
Today there are some things you'll no longer put up with. That means you can't just sit there and ignore them any longer. Something that's been bathering you is going to have to be straightened out, and you're probably the one to do it.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Today is a 6 Watch out for breakdowns today. Something you thought was going to be there, isn't. Somebody you expected to call you, won't. You might miss a phone call yourself. Communications are garbled; the computers might even go down. Make sure you back up everything.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Today is a 5 Be careful today to express yourself clearly. You won't be the only one having trouble getting the pain across. You should be more successful at it than most people, because you do tend to be careful with your words.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Today is a 6
V
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Today is a 6
You might notice today you're a little short of cash. You may have to postpone something you'd like to do, but don't despair. You'll find a way around this dilemma by going a little farther out of your way. In other words, don't pay top dollar if you can get a bargain elsewhere

Notre Dame officials declined comment until an official announcement is made. A decision could be made sometime in the next two weeks, Lacy said.
The addition of a twelfth game to the Jayhawks' schedule would mean that Kansas would have to win seven games to be eligible for a bowl game.

Notre Dame had a 10-2 regular season record last season and appeared in the Gator Bowl. The Fighting Irish defeated Big 12 opponent Baylor 27-3 last season and have Oklahoma on the schedule for next season.

"I feel fine, and I am looking forward to taking care of this problem and getting back to work," said the 58-year-old Torre, who spent the day at his spring home in Tampa.

It was not immediately clear how long he will be away from the team, what his course of treatment will be or where he will be treated.
Just last week, former Yankees star Catfish Hunter appeared at the team's camp too weak to shake hands because of Lou Gehrig's Disease. In 1996, when Torre became the Yankees' manager, his brother Rocco died and his brother Frank had a heart transplant during the World Series.
"No one wants to see someone else face this particular battle," Strawberry said. "It is a difficult battle for anybody. We all have to realize that until there is a cure for cancer there are no guarantees."

"You never know, because the last couple years it's always been, 'Is he go to leave? Is he going to stay?'" he said. "You're not surprised, but it's kind of a shock when you finally hear it. You feel bad for him and his family, but we've still got business to take care of."

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Glen Rice was traded from the Charlotte Hor nets today in a five-player deal that gives the streaking Los Angeles Lakers one of the NBA's best 3-point shooters.
The Lakers, who spent several weeks pondering the trade, have won seven consecutive games under new coach Kurt Rambis.
This marked the third time in four years Charlotte has refused to pay a seven-figure salary to one of its best players. The others to leave were Alonzo Mourning and Larry Johnson.
The trade comes three days after the resignation of Hornets coach Dave Cowens, who was unhappy with his salary.

Men's tennis players adjusting to Kansas
By Melinda Weaver
mweaver@kansan.com
Kansas sportwriter
Though they each traveled thousands of miles to play college tennis, Rodrigo Echagaray and Alex Barragan say they feel right at home.
The two students from Mexico City have been playing tennis together since they were 10-yearsold, and their paths led them to the University of Kansas.
The Kansas men's tennis program has recruited several excellent Mexican players in recent years.
Last season, Enrique Abaroa,
from Monterrey, Mexico, became
an All-American in doubles with
partner Luis Uribe, from Queretaro,
Mexico.
This season, Uribe is one of four students from a Spanish-speaking country on the team.
"I wanted to play college tennis," Uribe said. "I had other offers, but there were two other Mexicans on the team at the time. That was very important to me because if they liked it and fit in, I could learn to adjust as well."
Uribe and Abaroa's influence helped to inspire Barragan and Echagaray to join the team.
"I knew it was a good school because Enrique was very happy," Barragan said. "I also knew Luis, which makes the change a lot easier."
Uribe said Abaroa made Uribe's freshman year much easier by showing him Lawrence hot spots and giving him advice. This season, Uribe has taken the same role with Barragan, Echagaray and Sebastian Libertino, from Cordoba, Argentina.
Barragan said this common bond belts the team's chemistry.
"It really helps the move when I know some of my teammates from before." Barragan said. "We have a very close team."
"The diversity is important to
The chemistry seems to result in more victories.

The divers the team, but they can also play well," Coach Mark Riley said. "Their level of play makes everyone else play better.
Uribe, a 1998 All American, has a 20-6 record this season and is ranked No. 31 in the country. He and doubles partner Ed Dus are the 10th-ranked team in the country after reaching the semifinals of the Rolex Intercollegiate Indoors in February.
else play better."
Barragan was the third-ranked player in junior singles in Mexico and is the first Kansas player to have a 10-win freshman season since Uribe's freshman year.
Echagaray and Libertino are in their first semester as Jayhawks, but Echagaray already has posted four wins for the team. He was the second-ranked player in junior singles and the top-ranked player in junior doubles in Mexico. Libertino spent six years at the Bolletteri Academy where he was named Player of the Year in 1998.

coach Jerry Waugh said. "We don't expect great things at our first tournament, but I thought we played below our capabilities.
"But that's sports. Sometimes you come up a little short and you can't focus on that." he said.
The field in Arizona this weekend will feature some tough teams, including Arizona, which is currently ranked first in the nation in the MasterCard Collegiate Golf Rankings. Other ranked teams that will participate this weekend
include 35th-ranked Missouri and 47th-ranked Colorado.
Waugh said the tournament would be a good opportunity for many of the schools to compete in the outdoor sport, a chance teams from colder parts of the country do not often get. Colorado State, Idaho State, Kansas State, Northern Arizona and Wichita State also will participate.
"It's also a good opportunity to see more of the Big 12 schools," Waugh said.
Sophomore Ashley Bishop, who had Kansas' best one-round score in Florida with a 79, said it was good to get the first tournament over with.
"In some ways, it was hard to play (in Florida) because we hadn't played a lot the week before," she said.
Waugh said that the Mountainview Golf Club was a relatively new course, but that he knew the area and could imagine what the course will be like.
The tournament will be played on Saturday and Sunday, 18 holes each day. There will be a practice round on Friday.
"I think part of the desert will come into play and there will be elevated greens," he said. "So I think I have an idea of what to expect."

The most historic sporting event this weekend has nothing to do with hoops, nets or swooshes.
Student picks boxing, not hoops
Yes, the first round upsets will be interesting. And yes, Kansas will pick on some poor saps by the name of the Purple Aces. But what's being billed as "Duke and the 63 Cinderella" is nowhere near as big of a guarantee as the name Ali.
Commentary
Saturday night, at Madison Square Garden in New York, WBA and IBF heavyweight champion Evander Hollyfield, 36-3, will take on WBC heavyweight champion Lennox Lewis, 34-1, in a bout that will unify the three major titles.
field's advantage in experience has made him a 6-5 favorite in the days leading to the bell.
This stands to be one of the biggest championship fights in the heavyweight division this decade.
Holyfield has earned his reputation as a true warrior in the ring, and he stands as one of the last of his kind in the sports world today. Stepping into the spotlight in the 1984 Olympics, Holyfield won a bronze medal for the United States. He became the cruiserweight

champion two years later.
After moving to the heavyweight division, Hollyfield faced Michael Dokes, Buster Douglas, George Foreman, Riddick Bowe, Michael
Moorer, Ray Mercer, Larry Holmes and Mike Tyson. A list of opponents that reads like a "Who's who in the past 10 years in boxing."
Despite the daunting credentials Holyfield brings to this match, Lewis is by no means a lost cause.
Lewis has tremendous power, as evidenced by his 27 knockouts, which is two more than Holyfield in four fewer fights.
Holfyfield now is ranked as the third greatest heavyweight ever by Ring Magazine, and stands as the only man to ever duplicate Muhammad Ali's feat of winning the heavyweight championship three times.
Lewis' right hand is referred to by some boxing experts as the best in the past 20 years of heavyweight competition.

Williams discusses Earl rumors
Continued from page 1B
and said, 'You sit down and talk with them.'
"The NCAA went to Baton Rouge, talked to the same people we had talked to over the phone. They went down and talked to them personally. They came back and said, 'What (Earl)'s saying is the same story that we get back."
So far there's been nothing to the Earl-Master P story. But Williams knows there will be more rumors. There always are when it comes to Lester Earl.
"Every time something comes up with Lester, I throw a red flag." Williams said. "I've got a letter here from a girl that says Lester has some credit cards. So I get his phone bills, had him bring in his credit cards, talked to his mother about it. That's
Earl, a McDonald's All-American as a high school player, and his rumors have been quite a headache for Williams. Williams has no regrets about accepting Earl as a transfer in January 1997, before rumors and Earl became permanent partners. Back then Earl was just a talented freshman who wanted to escape the pressure of playing major-college basketball in his hometown.
No one knew then that Earl had accepted cash, would suffer three knee injuries, would be targeted by irate LSU fans and Dale Brown, and would be associated with Master P.

"I've gotten two calls," Williams said, pointing to the phone in his office, "people saying they're going to
"If I'd known all this stuff, I wouldn't have taken Lester. Yet we have him here, and he's part of our family now. He's been perfect for us. He's never asked for anything. He's never implied he wanted anything. He got one of the highest awards that our student support services group gives to any student-athlete last spring — hard working in the classroom, extra achievement, extra effort outside the classroom with tutors."

Sorry Jayhawk fans, Duke will win by 20
Don't you love today?
It might be the best Thursday of the year.
For the next four days, sports fans across the country will be lost in basketball heaven. True, pure basketball heaven. They will watch it, live it, breathe it.
I'll be right there with them. And, like the rest of the idiot sports fans in the world, I have my own slew of fearless predictions. Are they scientific? Hardly. Are they accurate? Doubful. Credible? Never.

**Dom's Random All-Tournament Team:**

Are these the five best players in the tournament? No. Do they have flavor? Oh, yeah.
Best First Round Match-Up: No. 8 Charleston vs. No. 9 Tulsa
This is one of those obscure gems that the tournament produces every year. Everyone knows these teams
can play some serious basketball but we never know who they are. With almost no real television exposure, both teams have built solid consistent winning programs.
Of course, the winner's prize is a date with Duke. Real fun.
Most Likely to Choke: No. 3 St.
John's and No. 2 Miami
In order to avoid the more obvious choice, I'm going with St. John's and Miami as the tournament's biggest flops.
The Red Storm and the Hurricanes are expected to carve a deep path in the tournament, but don't be surprised if they are out by the second round. Look for the Johnnies to lose to Indiana and for Texas to test Miami.
When Mike Jarvis comes to collect his award, I'll tell him to keep it for awhile. It's been in Lawrence long enough.
■ Tournament's Most Exciting Player. Baron Davis (UCLA)
Until this year, I hadn't seen very much of Davis. A highlight here, a highlight there, but nothing that substantial. After he blew out his knee in last year's tournament, I was unsure if he would ever be the same type of player
In every UCLA game I watched during the season, Davis was electric. His game reminds me of Allen Iverson — quick, explosive, fearless. You just never know what he is going to do next. If you get a chance to watch the Bruins first round game with Detroit, do it.
My Final Four: Duke, UConn,
Kentucky, Maryland
Pretty lame, I know. I just couldn't pull the trigger on a real underdog Final Four pick. UConn and Duke are the cream of the crop, and I think that Kentucky and Maryland can get through their regions without much trouble. Duke will take care of Tubby and the gang, and the Huskies will get past Maryland.
Doesn't matter anyway.
Duke wins by 20 in the finals. And that will be truly depressing.

Revue has history of giving
Show to celebrate 50 years of fun
By Amanda Kaschube Special to the Kansan
When Rock Chalk Revue creator Roy Wonder came up with the show in 1949, few would have expected it to be a hit 50 years later.
It was.
In a March 29, 1950 University Daily Kansan article, Wonder said, "We hope this show will be the first of many."
Archives in the Spencer Research Library reveal that the show has a history of fun, fantasy and sometimes scandal.
Fred Six, director of the Phi Delta Theta skit in the first show in 1950, said that the first participants didn't know what to expect.
"We just wanted to get on and off stage without a gaff." Sxs said this spring. "We hoped someone would come and clap."
An audience of 1,500 people attended the first Rock Chalk Revue and applauded while Phi Delta Theta won the men's division and Pi Beta Phi won the women's division. Each winner received an engraved silver cup. All eight groups produced their own 13-minute skits.
A Kansas State University fraternity, Pi Kappa Alpha, also performed at the first Rock Chalk Revue.
KU-Y, a combined group from the YMCA and YWCA, sponsored the event. All proceeds went to the groups.
In 1956, Student Union Association tried to take the leadership role from KU-Y, but they failed. KU-Y sponsored the event until 1983.
Six said Rock Chalk was always a hit because its skits changed with the times.
"The show reflects current vogues
in terms of the campus, state and country," he said. "The subject matter is always changing."
In 1966, Rock Chalk Revue had its own Red Scare. Alpha Tau Omega put on a production of "Snow Red and the Seven Bolsheviks."
In 1957, Rock Chalk Revue added the first in-between-acts performances, featuring several musicians.
The first coed skits were introduced in 1959. Previously, men and women competed in separate events, each group giving its own award.
The revue began basing all skits on a common theme in 1963, a practice that continues today.
In 1967, the first residence hall competed in Rock Chalk, and five years later a McCollum Hall skit engulfed the show in controversy. The skit, entitled "Sex and the Single Deity," dealt with conversations with God and Satan about oral sex. The audience booed the McCollum group off the stage.
United Way first benefited from the show in 1983, and the Board of Class Officers took control of administration of the show that year. KU-Y, however, would not give up the rights to the show, including the name "Rock Chalk Revue." The name was changed to "Encore" for the next two years until KU-Y's rights ran out.
A group of four singers called Harmonic Function, who sang Motown a cappella, was the biggest attraction of 1986. They returned to the show in 1987.
The Saturday show was moved to the afternoon in 1988 because of a men's basketball home game on March 5. Despite the change. That year, the proceeds exceeded $15,000, the largest donation ever given to United Way by the University.
"Rock Chalk Revue still has a charitable purpose," Six said. "It's a commendable and credible institution for the University to have."
Last year, the revue donated $42,500 and 33,000 community service hours to the United Way of Douglas County
The first showing of this year's revue, with the theme "Wonders Never Cease," is at 7 tonight in the Lied Center.
The 50th anniversary theme is a tribute to Roy Wonder, the show's founder.
Six said the revue was an acknowledgment of Wonder's work.
Six said he planned to attend the show.
"It shows the difference one person can make at the University." Six said. "Here it is 50 years later. He had an idea and sold it and now it is a successful organization."
This year's performers include Delta Gamma and Delta Chi, Alpha Chi Omega and Sigma Phi Epsilon, Alpha Delta Pi and Kappa Sigma, Delta Delta Delta and Phi Delta Theta, and Kappa Kappa Gamma and Beta Theta Pi.
Adam Saylor, Topeka sophomore and director of Beta Theta Pl, said he felt lucky to be part of the ongoing tradition.
"Kids can relate to the Revue because it's good entertainment and the jokes deal with the present times," he said.
Six said that while the talent level has not increased since he was in the Rrevue, the staging and technical development has.
"Roy started the institution. It was new, unknown with no theatrical reputation," he said. "The staging has been improved but that's expected because it was a baby at first."
Wonder is scheduled to attend the 50th anniversary performance.

Theme award added to revue
Artistic creations to be rewarded for the first time
Rock Chalk Revue began without a theme, but since 1963 the annual variety show has worked its way through 34 catchy phrases and quite a few bad puns.
By Katrina Hull Special to the Kansan
This year an award for best interpretation of the theme "Wonders Never Cease" will be added to the revue's list of awards.
Rock Chalk public relations officer John Laing said the Advisory Board selected this year's theme not only to commemorate founder Roy Wonder but also to allow for broad artistic interpretations.
"We always stress how important theme is and never give groups credit," Rock Chalk Revue executive director, Alex Locke, said. "The award is a way to do this."
Locke said that each skit must work in the theme in some way, whether it was saying the line, naming a character, including the
theme in the plot, or referring to the theme in some other way.
Phi Delta Theta Rock Chalk director Jeff Phelps said this year's theme had a personal meaning to him and four of his fraternity brothers.
"We started as little idiots and now we are big idiots who know how to have too much fun," Phelps said.
Phil Delta Theta and Delta Delta Delta used the theme into their skit "The Captain Was Here" through the main character Captain Joe, who can't get anything right. The "wonder" is that Captain Joe manages to save the day without even realizing it, Phelps said.
Alpha Delta Phi and Kappa Sigma also use a character to incorporate this year's theme. Skit character Carlton Wonderdon is a man with three ex-wives who is sick of paying alimony and decides to fake his death in "Three Ex-wives and a Funeral," Jennifer Shriver, Alpha Delta Phi Rock Chalk director, said.
Shriver, a Arkansas City senior, said that most of the skit took place at Mr. Wonderton's funeral. Of course, she said, "Wonderton never ceased."
"It's about finding good in things and the miracle of the unexpected. Nothing is as it seems."
"We arrived at our story through endless hours of brainstorming and endless nooks and crannies in the road." Shriver said.
Scott Newcomer
Delta Gamma and Delta Chi worked the theme into their skit entitled "Clouded Judgment" through an interpretation of the meaning of "Wonders Never Cease," said Delta Chi Rock Chalk director Scott Newcomer.

"It's about finding good in things and the miracle of the unexpected," Newcomer said. "Nothing is as it seems."
Kappa Kappa Gamma and Beta Theta Pi's "In 'Two' deep" work in the theme through the location of their skat at the "Wonders Never Caesar's Palace" in Las Vegas, Danner Evans, Kappa Kappa Gamma Rock Chalk
The skit, "Clouded Judgment," is about an arrogant and sneaky defense lawyer who gets to look back on his life after his death and then has the option of changing his ways. Newcomer said.
Evans said coming up with the name of the casino was the hard part and that every year incorporating the theme is challenging.
director, said.
"It's an honor to be in on the 50th year knowing that the guy who started it will be there," Julie Gorman, Alpha Chi Omega Rock Chalk director, said.
Because it is the 50th Anniversary of the revue this year, Evans said the theme was more important.
Alpha Chi Omega and Sigma Phi Epsilon's "Swing to a Victory" united swing dancing with the theme through its characters called the "Wonders," Gorman, said.
She said "Swing to a Victory" used the theme in an interesting way but that she couldn't give away too many details.
The skit was set on a World War II army base with nurses, pilots and mechanics.

Rock Chalk's founder still is true to KU's crimson, blue
By Elizabeth Holder Special to the Kansan
It began with an idea and a prank
Now, 60 years later, the Rock Chalk Revue's founder, Roy Wonder, is coming back to KU.
October, 1959.
It was Feb.28,1950,when the following letter from Kansas State University appeared in the University of Kansas's student newspaper.
We of Kansas State don't mind in the least that you too enter into the competitive spirit and match wits and talents for the presentation of a great show - naturally ours are great - but, don't you agree that borrowing the idea is enough without taking the name too?
Surely, you have someone there at KU who can dream up a name for a show that is sponsored by the YMCA. If not, perhaps you would like us to send some Wildcat emblems down the Kaw, just in case you wanted to borrow those too.
Here's wishing you success with your production, but, please, try to find another name.
Unbeknownst to the KU student body and the University Daily Kansan, the letter was planted.
Roy Wonder grew up in Manhattan, Kan., and his idea for a variety show was indeed based on Kansas State's show, Y-Orpheum.
But Ross E. Miller, producer of Y-Orpheum and personal friend to Wonder, wrote the letter to create rivalry between the two schools.

"I have nothing but warm feelings toward K-State," said Wonder. "After all, I borrowed 'the concept from K-State. And K-Staters helped me do it! Their winning skit in 1950 came to KU to perform at our first RCR."
Wonder said he planned to return to Lawrence for the March 12 revue to help celebrate the production's longevity.
"I am elated and proud of the 50th production of RCR," Wonder said. "I am extremely pleased that it has continued these many decades and that it has evolved into a vital project."
Benton Kelly, director of Kappa Kappa Gamma's skit,
said she was looking forward to the founder's return.
This year's theme, "Wonders Never Cease," uses Wonder's name and refers to the longevity of the revue.
"It's amazing that the guy that started all of this will see how much the show has progressed," she said. "I hope he be proud of what we have done and how much hard work we have put into this production."
Wonder realized that KU needed a variety show when he was a senior in Fall 1949. The show was based on similar shows around the nation, especially those in the Big 7 and Big 10 conferences.
He convinced his Alpha Tau Omega fraternity brothers to help sell the variety show to the student body. Once the letter appeared in the Kansan, instigating the rivalry with K-State, Wonder and his brothers sold sponsorship of the show to the YMCA.
After Wonder graduated in 1950, he joined the Navy during the Korean war. After the war, he attended Georgetown University, where he earned law degree.
Wonder was appointed by the governor of California to work for the California Workers Compensation Appeals Board and later as a judge in San Francisco.
He married Barbara Comstock, a KU graduate, in 1953. She died in 1995. This year, he to marry Jean Stoneman Benton, a 1953 KU graduate and Theta sorority sister to Barbara Comstock.
Wonder has kept up with KU through the sports section and alumni events.
"Just two weeks ago I attended an alumni reception in San Francisco with the Chancellor and the president of the alumni association," Wonder said. "I enjoyed a safari to Africa with the 'Flying Jayhawks' last summer."
He said that many of his lifelong friends are Jayhawks.
The last time Wonder attended the revue was in 1989 for the 40th production.
"I was honored. I judged and then presented the awards," he said. "It was a great weekend."

Multicultural panel yields increased sensitivity in skits
By Karen Lucas Special to the Kansan
To head off script problems that could antagonize campus groups, the Rock Chalk Revue advisory board created a multicultural sensitivity panel.
The new panel was created as a result of student protests against a Rock Chalk Revue skit last spring called "Don't Drink the Water." The skit portrayed indigenous people in a manner that offended members of some organizations.
Members of First Nations' Student Association, which was then named Native American Student Association, objected to the skit which was presented by Alpha Delta Pi and Lambda Chi Alpha. Students from the Black Student Union and Haskell Indian Nations University supported the association during the protests.
Raven Heavy Runner, president of the association, said that the skit had made light of his people's spirituality.
"It definitely did not represent who we are as a native people," he said.
But Cate Pugh, director of "Don't Drink the Water," said this spring that her group had not had malicious intent.
Last year's situation might not have developed had there been a panel, Heavy Runner said.
Pugh agreed.
"I think it would have helped last year to have had a panel as a safety valve," she said.
The panel met twice during the fall semester to review the shows and offer advice.
Panel members were Ann Eversole, adviser to the revue and associate dean of students; Danny Kaiser, director of organizations and leadership; Barbara Ballard, assistant vice chancellor for student affairs; Charla Jenkins, director of public relations for University Theatre and the department of music and dance; Tamara Lewis, assistant director of the office of minority affairs and the multicultural resource center, and Robert Page, coordinator of multicultural recruitment.
Julie Hanson, executive producer for the revue, said that Eversole, Ballard and Gloria Flores, associate director of the office of minority affairs and program director for the Multicultural Resource Center, had recommended individuals for the panel.
SENSITIVITY PANEL MEMBERS
"We wanted people who were sensitive to the various issues, but also who worked with undergraduates," Eversole said.

Tamara Lewis, assistant director of the office of minority affairs and the Multicultural Resource Center
Robert Page, coordinator of multi-cultural recruitment.
The role of the panel was not to censor but to make recommendations, Kaiser said.
Jenkins said panel members were looking for ideas, dialogue or anything else that might make somebody feel uncomfortable.
She also said the panel had found a number of minor instances in which the potential for possibly objectionable material existed.
Yet none of the scripts presented major problems, Kaiser said.
"I don't recall finding anything having the potential to raise anxieties like the show in question did last year," he said.
Hanson said the groups were receptive to the panel's recommendations.
"They wanted to make sure nothing controversial was going to happen this year," she said.
Chace Ramey, director of "Clouded Judgment," said his group made a name change because of a panel recommendation.
They changed the name for a group of female characters from "Foster's Fairies" to "Foster's Trio."
He said that people might have found the term "fairies" offensive.
Ramey also said that he did not think his group's creativity had been stifled.
Chris Jones, director for "The Captain Was Here," said that he thought it would have been better if the panel could have worked directly with the groups.
"Ideas could have been discussed rather than been written down and told to us by a third party," he said.
Hanson said the panel was definitely a positive addition to the revue.
"Its suggestions were helpful," she said. "I would recommend that next year's advisory board utilize the panel again."

Community service at heart of variety show
Fewer non-greeks involved this year some students disagree with process
By Nathan Willis
Special to the Kansan
It may not have the glitz and glamour of the on-stage productions, but community service still is at the core of the Rock Chalk Revue.
Although the community service arm of the revue works in greater anonymity than the show's actors and actresses, the service work is massive, said Lindsay Merrill, co-community service coordinator for the revue.
Merrill said that 28 groups turned in a total of 33,812 community service hours last year. She said she expected the 30 groups this year to accumulate 5,000 to 6,000 more hours than last year.
"We'll definitely turn in more hours this year," Merrill said. "In particular, we've had an unbelievable turnout this year on food and clothing drives. It only takes saying 'Hey, we need some clothes,' and by the end of the next week, you're getting cars full of clothes."
Service activities vary greatly and involve more than 100 charitable organizations in the Lawrence area, Merrill said.
Most of the fraternities and sororities competing in the community service competition are in the paired division, Merrill said. But a few of the Greek groups compete in the non-paired division along with non-greek organizations.
ber of members of the group. So the organizers come out with the number of hours worked per group member.
Organizations totaling 13 or more hours per person earn gold medals. Silver awards go to groups who accumulate 11 to 12 hours per person, and bronze awards to groups accumulating 9 to 10 hours per person.
The groups earn awards by division, Merrill said. Hours are totaled for each group and divided by the num-
Last year, about one-third of the groups received a gold award, about one-third a silver and the remainder ended up with a silver medal or without a medal, Merrill. She said most groups did receive medals.
In addition, awards for "most charitable organization" and "runner-up" are given in each division.
Not everyone agrees with the emphasis on awards, Julia Glimme, Douthart Scholarship Hall community service chair, said that emphasizing the awards created an atmosphere where community service was secondary.
She said that, while Douthart had won runner-up in the non-paired division last year and had won the division the year before, those who viewed the awards as nice recognition for service the hall would have volunteered anyway. But, she said, not all organizations were performing service for service's sake.
"Many people aren't doing this out of their own free will, but to get a prize in the end," Gilmore said.
"Competition for awards is an aspect that in my opinion is null, because the service still gets done, even if they're doing it for the wrong reasons," Wilson said.
Maggie Wilson, community service coordinator for the revue, said that Glmore's point was moot because in the end, the service was still being
done, regardless of the reasons.
Merrill said individual hours were compiled by each organization's community service coordinator and turned in weekly to Wilson and herself.
Some individuals and organizations have exaggerated their hours in the past, Merrill said. But she didn't think it had not been a problem this year.
She said groups and individuals had to fill out forms accounting for their time. Contact numbers must be listed on the forms so hours can be checked by the revue staff.
"We know this is a problem, but there's only so much you can do." Merrill said. "We usually check on one of their sheets each time they turn them in. There is a punishment if we find that you've lied."
That punishment consists of a loss of hours in the competition starting with a subtraction of 50 hours and increasing for each infraction.
The community service aspect of Rock Chalk Revue traditionally has been an area on non-greek involvement, but Merrill said the number of non-greek organizations had dwindled to two this year: Douthart and Watkins scholarship halls.
Gilmore said that Douthart, though still a participant, reflected the waning interest by non-greeks organizations. She said that while the hall was still as interested as ever in community service, the revue was less of a draw than before.
"Our hall hasn't been really motivated this year." Gilmore said. "There is definitely a perception that Rock Chalk is all Greek. While it would be nice if there was no resentment between Greeks and other organizations, there is."
She said she thought one reason for the resentment was that many events that counted for hours were philanthropy events that not all students could equally afford. She cited the example of a karaoke night at Beachers Sports Bar, 804 24th St., last semester.
"There was a karaoke night where people received community service hours for going to a bar and goofing off." Gilmore said.
Wilson said that while community service organizations in the area needed volunteers in many cases, they also need money. Philanthropy events were a way of giving charitable organizations the money they needed, she said.
She also said the United Way, which received the funds generated by the karaoke night, had been very appreciative of the event.
Regardless of any problems or controversies, the community service aspect of the revue still fulfilled its charitable duties, Wilson said.
Todd Huppe, Kappa Sigma Rock Chalk Revue director, said that the service was beneficial to those involved.
"I think that for our guys, working with Head Start was really memorable," Hupe said. "They liked the physical aspects of working on a playground to build equipment. It got them thinking about being a kid again."

HIP-HOP TO HYMN-LIKE
By Matt Cox
Special to the Kansan
Eve Bradley worried that her hip-hop dance group had no place in Rock Chalk Revue.
She wondered how open the Rock Chalk crew would be to a dance group opening the mainly greek variety show.
When Bradley, Shreveport, La. senior, found out her group made the cut, she figured the Rock Chalk committee actually didn't mind featuring a dance group in the revue.
This year's Rock Chalk opening acts—the talent that performs before the show's production numbers go on—span the music spectrum from country to dance.
A different act will open the Rock Chalk Reve each night.
Each of the opening acts said they had a different motivation for doing what they did and told a different story about why they existed.
"Every year, we break more barriers," she said.
"It's really an outlet for people who love to dance to do what they love," said Bradley, president of Unity.
Unity started three years ago doing greek parties and eventually worked its way to the Granada, 1020 Massachusetts St.
Unity, a hip-hop dance company will show off their twists and turns tonight.
Bradley described the group's dance style as funky and smooth. She said its works were choreographed to modern hip-hop artists such as Oukast and Monifah.
One of the group's dreams, to perform on the Lied Center stage, will come true tonight.
"We weren't sure if it was going to be appropriate for Rock Chalk Revue," Bradley said.
Unity practices twice a week from 7 to 9 p.m. in Hashinger Hall. The practice and dedication seems to pay off more and more with each performance, Bradley said.
Tomorrow, The Pool Boys, an acoustic folk-rock band with a religious message, will go on stage at 7 p.m.
"We've never played at the Liee Center. It should be fun," said Chris DeTray, Bucyrus senior, guitar player and singer for the band.
The three-member band has been together for almost two years and now has a solid fan base. About 450 fans attended the group's recent CD-release party.
The Pool Boys didn't have time to worry about Rock Chalk tryouts because they had two shows in Iowa the day before the tryout and one show the night of the tryout.
De Tray said they played almost everywhere they could. They've played at the Jazzhaus, 926 1/2 Massachusetts St., out-of-state colleges and festivals as far away as Atlanta.
He said they planned to tour the Midwest this summer to promote their new CD Storehouse Full. They hope their current negotiations with a record company will get them a supporting record and/or a tour deal, he said.
"We're doing it to promote the gospel," said DeTrav.
The band is a ministry for God, he said. They also lead a praise gathering at Wescoe every Tuesday night at 8:45 p.m. called "Open Swim."
saturday night will feature a country vocalist for the opening
act.
Elisabeth Ashley, Prairie Village freshman, will sing some of her favorite country songs.
She plans to use back-up music on cassette to sing a few songs from Patsy Cline, The Dixie Chicks and Patti Loveless.
"I saw an ad in the UDK and figured I had nothing to lose," Ashley said.
Ashley said she developed her own bluesy, ballad-based voice from listening to her dad sing at home and from participating in choirs in high school.
She has performed in weddings and choir contests in the past, but her only paid performance was last year during spring break. While she was in a casino in the Bahamas, a drunken older woman playing the slots asked if anyone could get up and sing.
Ashley volunteered and the woman told her to get up there and sing. She sang a few of her favorite country songs and the Titanic theme for the woman. After she was finished, the woman handed her a $100 tip. Ashley said she was surprised at the large amount.
"I left quickly after that, in case she handed me the wrong bill," she said.
Ashley plans to pursue her singing career, but she is at KU to earn a degree in communication studies that she can fall back on.
"I want to try out Nashville for a little while after I graduate," Ashley said.
None of the the Rock Chalk Revue opening acts will be paid to perform, but all the acts said they didn't mind. They agreed that the exposure was the most important part of the show.
"I'm just happy I get a chance to perform," Ashley said.

Lied Center elevates revue's quality

Special to the Kansan
Students and staff who make up the Lied Center technical crew do not usually work as civil engineers, but the Rock Chalk Reve gives them a chance to build something from the ground up.
The 50th anniversary production "Wonders Never Cease" will be the sixth Rock Chalk show performed in the Lied Center.
"It's kind of fun," Technical Director Lee Saylor says. "It's something my crew looks forward to every year. It gets something different in here."
Saylor calls the usual Lied Center productions "packaged shows" because those productions are already put together and the performers simply adjust to fit on the stage. Rock Chalk, however, designs much of its show with the Lied Center stage in mind.
Saylor, who has worked at the Lied Center since it opened in 1994, served as a staff adviser from the beginning, giving student directors advice and ideas.
"My job is to make sure their show works on stage," Saylor said. "A lot of the directors don't do theater, so I'm there to help."
"We treat every organization the same, whether it's the New York City Opera or Rock Chalk or a lecture by the business school." Pawlikki said. "They each get professional lighting, sound, advice on microphones and monitor speakers."
In addition to personnel, Fred Pawlicki, operations director, said the Lied Center provides high-tech equipment that makes the show look more professional.
The Rock Chalk participants have access to the stage, theater equipment and dressing rooms for a week, allowing several days for rehearsal before the opening show
Thursday night. Participants can also store all show materials in the center during the week.
Hoch Auditorium was home to Rock Chalk beginning with its first performance April 1, 1950. Then in 1991, lightning ignited a fire, which destroyed the building. Hoch Auditorium has since been rebuilt and is part of Budig Hall.
State of the art accommodations have not always been a part of Rock Chalk performances.
With nowhere else to go, Rock Chalk participates crammed into the Lawrence High School auditorium during the 1992 and 1993 shows. Classrooms served as dressing rooms, and participants had to take home all props and costumes so they would not disrupt the high school classes.
"As far as continuous work for a week, Rock Chalk is about as busy as we get," Pawlicki said. "It's high-tech because each group puts on a show."
Pawlick said most shows presented in Lied Center run about two hours with intermission. Rock Chalk, however, has five separate shows with a break in between.
Things are more convenient for the actors and actresses now with the Lied Center, where a lot of behind-the-scenes work makes
the show run smoothly.
rauneki explained that the technical crew rehearses with the actors and actresses the week before the show.
It's a real challenge, he said. Julie Gorman, Alpha Chi Omega's director of "Swinging to Victory," said she was looking forward to performing in the Lied Center.
The Lied Center has been home to the Rock Chalk Revue since 1994. Participants say that the building's design and the excellent quality of its equipment lend a feeling of professionalism to the show. The revue will be performed at the Lied Center tonight, tomorrow evening and Saturday evening. Tickets are available only from the Student Union Association and participants in the show — not the Lied Center Box Office. Photo by Mike Kelly/KANSAN
"It's a real challenge." he said.
Gorman said after all the hard work on the production, it was a good feeling to be able to present the show professionally rather than some amateur production.

Rock Chalk Revue participants are on-stage only for a short time during each of the three evenings that they perform. But while they are performing those shows, they aim for perfection. The five groups that will perform at this year's revue were required to practice every day this semester to ensure that their productions would be of the highest quality.

From showgirls to super heroes, spectators at the 50th annual Rock Chalk Revue will have the opportunity to see a dazzling variety of costumes in this year's performance.
When the curtain rises tonight, spectators may look at all the time, hours of brain storming and amount of money it takes to outfit about 200 students for this event. The show must go on — whether it means sewing, buying or borrowing the outfits.
swing, buying Hope Bruce, Kansas City, Kan., fresh man, has a sewing machine in her room this semester. She is a member of Alpha Chi Omega and has volunteered to make all the women's costumes for her house's joint production with Sigma Phi Epsilon. The show is called "Swinging to Victory."
The show is called *Swinging to Vettsy*. Bruce said the house participants in the production would be outfitted as nurses, mechanics and pilots.
"We got started a little late this year, so I've been a little overwhelmed," she said.
Bruce also said the cast had been having problems finding enough pastel knit material to make all the nurses' outfits. But she said she still expected to finish them all in time.

Chris Jones, Prairie Village senior, said there was an interesting mixture of attire in the works for the performance of "Captain Was Here" by Phi Delta Theta and Delta Delta Delta.
He described the two leading performers' costumes in their production as "super goofy, super-heroish with a cape and a makeshift super belt."
Jones said the chorus members would be dressed as construction workers and police officers.

"Our flashiest outfits are those of the Vegas showgirls," Sinlayson said. "We wanted them to stand out and have visual appeal — sort of like eye candy."
Although the typical Las Vegas showgirl dressed in an elaborate and revealing outfit, Sinlayson said members of her sorority tried not to make the ensembles too uncomfortable for the students wearing them.
"They're still sexy, but we tried not to show as much as you might see in Vegas," she said.

"It was incredibly difficult to come up with the ideas for the costumes," she said.
"We brainstormed for two days."
After brainstorming, Pickering said they decided to use reversible vests and black tube tops to aid in their transformations.

Revue romances often aren't built to last, actors say
By Amber Stuever
Special to the Kansan
After months of working together, many Rock Chalk Revue actors find themselves dancing a little closer together during performances.
They are the couples who have fallen into the infamous Rock Chalk romance, a Rock Chalk tradition as old as the show itself. It's the classic story of boy meets girl, only it's not set at a local bar. During the hours of Rock Chalk Revue practices, the only intoxicating substances are the music and dance.
Tim O'Donnell, a member of Beta Theta Pi fraternity, met his new girlfriend while working on a Rock Chalk show with Kappa Kappa Gamma. O'Donnell said that the rehearsals were great for developing a relationship.
"You get to be around the people that you like and have a good time at practices," O'Donnell said. "If one of those happens to be the person you're dating, all the better."
John Wade, psychologist for Counseling and Psychological Services, agreed that Rock Chalk is an ideal opportunity for relationships to develop.
"Often what does lead to a relationship are things like having common interests, which especially creates a sense of a connection in the sense that you're working together," Wade said.
The Rock Chalk romance worked for Julie Dunlap, who met her husband while working on the 1992 show. Dunlap, an alumna of Kappa Alpha Theta, and her husband, David Dunlap, an alumnus of Beta Theta Pi, developed a Rock Chalk crush that turned into an engagement two years later.
Julie Dunlap said that although couples are brought together by the revue, they must have things other than the show in common for the relationship to last.
"So many Rock Chalk romances start because you have so much in common," she said. "If they really want it to last beyond Rock Chalk, they need to
make a point of not talking about the show once in a while and being relaxed about the relationship."
Matt Haverkamp, Mission senior and a member of Lambda Chi Alpha, began dating his dance partner in the fraternity's show last year with Alpha Delta Pi. Haverkamp and his dance partner are still together even though his girlfriend is participating in the show this year while Haverkamp is not.
Although the Rock Chalk romance worked for him, Haverkamp said many problems could accompany it.
"I think it's a good way to meet people, but I don't know that it's the best way to find a strong relationship," Hvaerkamp said. "A lot of times the stress from Rock Chalk brings people together and pushes them anart just as quick."
Dylan Hale, a director of Phi Delta Theta's shows last year and this year, said that he had seen Rock Chalk romances come and go.
"It can work out and last, but I've seen more relationships break up a month after Rock Chalk than I've seen last," Hale said. "Maybe it's because they're not seeing each other every day or things just change. But I think it can work."
Rachael Augustyn, Overland Park freshman and a member of Alpha Delta Pi, is dating a man from the sorority's show with Kappa Sigma fraternity. She said Rock Chalk romances were a good way to start a relationship, and that they could improve the show.
You're all working together for a common purpose, obviously to get the show done," Augustyn said. "You're in a stressful environment, but you're all in it together."
Although Rock Chalk preparation has seen its share of one-night stands, Dunlap said she was proof that the Rock Chalk romance can last. The key, Dunlap said, was to maintain a friendship.
"The passion of the show ends in March so they need to have something to carry them past that," Dunlap said.

Rock Chalk promotion leaves few seats empty
By Jason Walker Special to the Kansan
Brooke Wiebe, Wichita freshman, felt lucky that she was able to get tickets to the March 13 performance of Rock Chalk Revue. Wiebe, a member of Alpha Xi Delta sorority, is taking her parents to the sold-out show as part of the sorority's Mom's Day activities.
"I have heard some good things about Rock Chalk," she said. "You have to be really good to be in the show."
This year marks the 50th anniversary of the show, and just two weeks before the performance, few tickets are left.
John Laing, director of public relations for the revue, said that the revue usually attracted alumni from past performances.
"It's great to get people to come that have been in the revue before," he said. "A lot of them like to come back and see the show again."
"We give the houses performing in the show first chance at tickets," he said. "The Saturday day show was sold out even before tickets went on sale to the public."
Laiing said that promoting the show wasn't too hard, especially within the greek community. In fact, the men and women performing in the revue are all members of greek establishments, even though the performance is not limited to greek participation.
Melanie Morgan, co-director of the cast from Delta Delta Delta, and said that it hadn't been difficult to gather participants.
"Everyone wants to do it," she said. "We had about 100 people from the house try out.
Morgan said that although the community service aspect of the revue was important, the work had allowed the women to make new friends with the men of Phi Delta Theta, the fraternity that Delta Delta Delta is naired with.
Girls that don't get in come up and ask to volunteer.
“It’s a good way for our houses to get to know each other,” she said. “You can make lifelong friendships.”
Aaron Darden, co-director of the show for Delta Chi, said that although it was good for the houses to get together, the one-hour-a-day time commitment could sometimes be hard to deal with.
"A lot of people make room for practice because they think it is worthwhile," he said. "But sometimes it keeps people away that have a full schedule."
Greek houses are not the only organizations that may submit entries to perform in the revue. Laing said that any living organization — a campus group whose members live together — was welcome to try out for the revue.
"We have had groups from dorms and scholarship halls try out in the past," he said. "And we have made some rule changes that level out the playing field."
Laing said that few non-greek organizations submitted entries because of the time commitment involved, money needed to produce an entry and the turnover in residents.
"We try to promote non-greek entries," he said. "But it's tough for them to get the support needed to participate."

Stiff fines keep show's players on best behavior
By Derek Prater Special to the Kansan
Rock Chalk Revue is about fun and entertainment, but it's serious business as well.
To ensure that the many hours and thousands of dollars spent producing the revue aren't wasted, participants face a system of punitive fines for unacceptable behavior.
Fines keep groups on the ball and make sure everything runs smoothly said Alex Locke, executive director of the revue.
Locke said that he and his assistant were responsible for assessing fines and that revue groups, rather than individual participants, were held accountable for paying. Fines are donated, along with proceeds, to the United Wav.
Fines can be assessed for everything from having alcohol or drugs to chewing gum at rehearsals or performances, but Locke said the only fines so far this year had been for unexcused absences.
"If I see someone with gum, I'll tell them to spit it out. But I can't give a warning for the attendance rule," Locke said.
With rehearsals running seven days a week, all five groups have incurred fines for attendance this year.
If a revue group has less than 90 percent of its cast present 10 minutes after rehearsal starts, that group is fined $200.
"It sounds like a lot at first,but when you think

about how many people are coming to Rock Chalk, it's not that bad," said Adam Saylor, revue director for Beta Theta Pi.
Fines are necessary to punish and deter unprofessional attitudes. But participants say being part of a great show and a great cause is motivation enough.
"This is a big deal, being in Rock Chalk, and everybody needs to be there," said Melanie Morgan, revue director for Delta Delta Delta.

After all the lights have dimmed, the curtains have closed and the audience has gone home, the rewards of the 50th Annual Rock Chalk Revue will continue to live on.
Since 1983, the money raised from the revue has been donated to the United Way of Douglas County. Hank Booth, director of the United Way of Douglas County, said many different projects reap the benefits of the the student-raised money.
"I think it's important to point out that the tone for our whole campaign last year was set with contribution results from Rock Chalk," Booth said. "It was an all-time high on campus for givers and we made a big point to let the University know what students at KU are doing with donations
Last year, with the help of the $42,500 raised from the revue, the United Way met and exceeded its campaign goal for the year of $1.25 million.
The United Way not only receives donations of money from the revue, but also receives volunteer help from students willing to get their hands dirty. Many students involved with the revue help out each year in the United Way's Day of Caring, which is a day each year where students help paint and do yard work along with a variety of other community chores.
Booth said all the money earned from the revenue is used to help 30 different agencies in Douglas County, including the Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts.
"We really just can't say 'thank you' enough," Booth said. "The revue really sets the tone for the year for us, and it's because of the revue that we were able to set our goal."
Jenny Lill, business manager of the revue, said the coordinators decided to give
FAST DONATION
1991-92 - $43,000
1992-93 - $26,000
1993-94 - $43,000
1994-95 - $16,000
1994-96 - $27,000
1996-97 - $30,000
1997-98 - $42,500
to the United Way because of the variety of causes it supports.
"We picked the United Way as our source of donation because it's the most broad-based organization in the Lawrence area," Lill said.
The money the revue gives to the United Way each year comes from several sources.
"Mainly, it comes from ticket sales," Lill said. "We also have several companies from Lawrence, Kansas City, Topeka and even Dallas that buy advertising for the program. That helps bring in money."
Lill said other revenue sources included alumni donations, drawings for prizes and sweatshirt and video sales also help to make money for the United Way.
This year's revue coordinators hope to donate $50,000.
"We thought with this being the 50th anniversary of the revue and all that $50,000 would be a good goal," Lill said. "That will all depend on how many companies put ads in the programs, how many seats we sell and et cetera."
Lill said the shows on Saturday night have sold out the past 15 years, and the Friday night performances have been packed for a long time.
The United Way was started by religious leaders in Denver in 1887 with the original plans to coordinate local services and conduct fund-raising campaigns.
Today, approximately 1,400 community-based United Way organizations and 45,000 agencies help millions of people around the world.
United Way also continues to grow more and more financially each year. Nearly 112 years after its start, the United Way makes more than a billion dollars annually in contributions, including $3.4 billion in their 1997-98 campaign.

Student variety show celebrates 50 years of service musical skits
By Jamie Knodei

Kansan staff writer
Last night, for the 50th consecutive year, Rock Chalk Revue performers sang and danced their way into thousands of dollars for charity.
Ten living groups have written, directed and produced musical skits to coincide with this year's theme "Wonders Never Cease." The production opened last night at the Lied Center and will continue with shows at 7 tonight and tomorrow night.
"I don't know how the directors do it each year — they keep coming up with bigger and better ideas," said Julie Hanson, Rock Chalk Revue executive producer and Minneapolis senior.

The skits were performed by sorority and fraternity pairs Alpha Delta Pi sorority and Kappa Sigma sigma sorority, Alpha Chi Omega sorority and Sigma Phi Epsilon, Delta Gamma sorority and Delta Chi fraternity, Delta Delta Delta sorority

Faculty express dissatisfaction with procedures, pay and benefits
By Kristi Reimer

Kansan staff writer
About 80 percent of faculty members are unhappy with the amount they are being paid, according to a University of Kansas survey measuring work satisfaction.
"Results of the survey indicate that faculty at the University of Kansas do not feel valued by their employer," states the report, which was prepared and released by the Faculty Compensation Committee at the request of University Governance.
In addition, 60 percent of respondents said they were dissatisfied with benefits, raises and the way pay was administered.
The survey was mailed to about 1,500 faculty who were tenured or working towards tenure, and 559,or 37 percent, responded.
About 70 percent of faculty said they were slightly dissatisfied with operating procedures, which refers to rules, regulations and paperwork. More than half were slightly dissatisfied with their degree of influence on policies and procedures.
Besides pay issues, the Faculty Work Satisfaction Survey evaluated faculty members' attitude toward promotion, supervision, operating procedures, co-workers, nature of work and communication at the University.
But the survey indicates that most faculty are content with the people they work with and the nature of their work. About 75 percent of respondents said they were satisfied with their department chair, dean or director. More than 80 percent were satisfied with their co-workers, while

Memorial services set for Spanish professor
Memorial services for Jon Vincent, a professor of Spanish and Portuguese, have been set.
Services will be at 2 p.m. April 11 at the Ecumenical Christian Ministries, 1204 Oread Ave.
vincent died of cancer about 8 p.m. Tuesday at his home. He had not been teaching since the middle of last semester.
After the services, Vincent will be creamed and intered in Taylor, Colo.
"We have a family reunion there every summer — I'd say we've gone up there for the last 15 years," said Maria Vincent. Jon's wife.
Tanya Vincent, his daughter, said that Jon loved to fly fish there, and that even if the fish were small, he always had a great time.
"Ever since Dad was a kid, he went up with his father and his brothers," she said.
Tanya Vincent said that a few years ago, they also had spread Jon Vincent's father's ashes in the same area.

Award-winning poet to read work at Union
Award-winning poet Jimmy Santiago Baca will read from his works at 4 p.m. today at Alderson Auditorium in the Kansas Union.
Baca received the American Book Award in 1989 for his 1989 collection Black Mesa Poems.
The reading is sponsored by the Lecturers and Readers Committee of the English Department.
Baca will sign books after the reading.
All of his poems have geographic roots in New Mexico," said Jesse Aleman, Lawrence graduate student. "They're not so much about nature, but more how geography reflects the internal emotions of the speaker."
Conference to explore international careers
The 13th annual international career conference, "Exploring International Careers: A World of Opportunity," will begin at 8 a.m. tomorrow at the Kansas Union lobby.
The conference aims to expose students to the growing international job market, said Anne Merydith-Wolf, conference coordinator for the Office of International Programs.
"Often students don't think about combining their major with a language," Merydith-Wolf said. "An engineering degree combined with
fluency in Spanish is much more marketable than straight engineering."
Professionals from a variety of fields will conduct workshops, give speeches and participate in panel discussions.
The event, sponsored by the Office of International Programs, costs $1.2 for KU students. For more information, contact the office at 864-4141.

Art museum investigates possible expansion plans
After 21 years in the same building, the Spencer Museum of Art is looking to expand its palette.
To study the possibility of expansion, the museum selected New York-based Polshek Partnership Architects.
The firm will assess the needs of the museum, the art history department and the art and architecture library, which all share the current building. Polshek Partnership was the architect of the recent renovations at the Sante Fe Opera House and Carnegie Hall, and has done similar planning work for museums at Ohio State and Yale universities.
The study is being paid for by museum supporters and the museum's advisory board.
A preliminary report will be presented at the Friends of the Art Museum annual meeting in late April with a final report by the end of the semester. The current process does not include an architectural design for expansion.
The University and museum administration will use the plan to assess the possibility of private fund raising to complete the building expansion.
"We are short on spaces for books, works of art and teaching," said Andrea Norris, director of the museum. "This programming process gives everyone in the building a chance to dream about new ways we can teach visual literacy and art history and encourage understanding of the value of original works of art for comprehending our world and its cultures."

Trial of KU student moved to later date
The trial of a KU student who was arrested Nov. 11 on rape charges has been moved from March 31 to June 16.
Gregory Hunsucker II, Olathe freshman, is charged with the rape of an Ellsworth Hall resident, the sexual battery of an Ellsworth staff employee and furnishing alcohol to a minor in an incident that occurred Oct. 17 in Ellsworth.
Judge Jack Murphy presided over a motions hearing earlier this week in which the admissibility of certain evidence was decided, Dave Zabel, a lawyer in the Douglas County District Attorney's Office, said that the parties were in agreement on evidence, and, for scheduling reasons, the trial was moved to June 16 in the Division II courtroom of the Law Enforcement Center, 111 E. 11th St.

Camcorders expected to benefit students
The School of Education is purchasing seven or eight video camcorders to upgrade the effectiveness of its teaching methods.
A team of students and faculty voted to use a portion of the money from student technology fees to buy portable video cameras that are equipped with viewing screens, said Earle Knowtfon, associate dean for teacher education and undergraduate studies.
The group considered several proposals for the money and decided to allot $5,000 toward the video camorders and related accessories, such as a tripod.
He said the cameras would enable instructors to record students while they give mini-teaching lessons.
"You can record it, sit down with the person immediately afterward and analyze it, and have the person reflect on what they did well and what they need to improve on," Knowtown said.
He said that the opportunity to benefit from the video camcorders existed at all stages of the education program. The cameras will enable professors to evaluate students before they are admitted to the program as well as during the courses in which they give microlessons to small groups. They also will be useful for graduate students who are in internships or student teaching.
The school has been relying on pencil and paper evaluations or older video cameras.
Knowlton said that he expected to make the purchases within the next month and that the school would begin using the technology immediately.

Revue opens 50th season at University
Continued from page 1A
Last year, the revue raised $42,500 and 33,800 hours of community service for the United Way of Douglas County.
Hanson said that this year was special because it was the golden anniversary of the production.
Rock Chalk Revue creator, Roy Wonder, will attend tonight's performance. Hanson said that for tonight's performance, a special section had been reserved for alumni seating and that a reception would be offered to honor alumni.
Hanson said that there still were a limited number of seats available in the alumni section for tonight's performance that could be purchased at the Lied Center before the show. There are no remaining tickets for tomorrow's show.
Awards recognizing outstanding performers and skits will be given out on closing night.
Till said that while there was a sense of competition among the groups, that was not their main focus.
"Even though it is a competition, it's looked at as more of entertainment for the audience," she said.

University plans to repeat survey
Continued from page 1A
95 percent were satisfied with the nature of their work
Chancellor Robert Hemenway said the survey results reinforced the University's commitment to raise faculty salaries — an issue being debated in the state Legislature.
Ronald Ash, professor of business, is co-chairman of the committee that administered the survey and prepared the report. He said many companies used similar surveys to measure employee attitudes.
"Management has discovered that basically it's very hard to satisfy your customers without having satisfied employees," he said.
The report states that dissatisfaction has been shown to lead to low levels of commitment, high turnover and reduced work effort.
Ash said the survey was administered because most faculty knew their salaries lagged behind those at comparable institutions, but there was no data to demonstrate the impact on attitudes of faculty.
He said the committee had expected to find dissatisfaction with pay, but the high numbers surprised him.
"Eighty percent was kind of a shock," he said. Ash said the 37 percent response rate was high for this type of survey and could be considered reflective of the whole faculty.
"Usually in a mail-out survey if you get 30 percent, it's considered a good response rate," he said.
The committee used two well-established, pre-existing surveys for its own study. Ash said, and modified them slightly to make them more applicable to faculty and University work.
Sandra Gautt, assistant provost and a member of the committee, said the Provost's office had supported the survey financially and planned to repeat it regularly to track changes in attitude in relation to changes in policy and procedure.
"Especially if the Legislature comes through with the pay increase," she said, "we want to develop a tool to provide feedback to administration and to governance."
Robert Basow, president of Faculty Council and associate professor of journalism, said it was up to the faculty to make changes in areas other than pay, such as operating procedures and influence.
He said there were no surprises in the report.
"A faculty committee did the study, now a faculty committee should implement it," he said. "It's not the administration's problem."
there were no surprises in the report.
"It's like when the doctor says you have to go on a diet," he said. "We know what's wrong, now what are we going to do about it?"
Among the least satisfied with pay issues at the University were faculty members in the School of Journalism, which ranked at the bottom of every category except those dealing with benefits.
"Maybe it's because journalists are often better informed about these kinds of things," said James Gentry, dean of journalism. "I've never found them reluctant to speak out."

Police: No suspects in KU graduate's New York murder
By Sarah Hale
Kansan campus editor
Although New York police haven't found any suspects or clues in the murder of former KU student Amy Watkins, the investigation will continue.
Det. Robert Samuel of the New York police department said that her murder had been handled seriously but that the investigation hadn't produced any leads.
Watkins, who was killed about 9:45 p.m. Monday near her Brooklyn apartment, was 26. She graduated in 1996 from the School of Social Welfare.
She was murdered on her way home, after leaving a nearby subway station.
new York law enforcement reported that to avoid leaving fingerprints, the wrapper kapped a six-inch, smooth-edged kitchen knife in a plastic bag before stabbing Watkins in the back.
The knife, which punctured one lung and her aorta, was pushed deeply into her back, indicating a person with strength, officials said.
Watkins was pronounced dead at 10:45 p.m. Monday at Interfaith Center in Brooklyn.
Samuel said that more than 25 homicide detectives were trying to round up witnesses and answers.
"This is not your ordinary type of murder." Samuel said. "We have crime every day, but this was very vicious, and she was so young. It's important."
"This story has gotten a lot of attention because of how she was killed and because it's a nice area," Samuel said. "She wasn't a bad person — she was a social worker. People want to know what's happening."
Higgins said that Watkins' story was touching to New York residents because she was in the city to help victims of violence, particularly women.
New York Mayor Rudolph W. Giuliani announced yesterday that there would be a $10,000 reward for anyone who provided information leading to the apprehension and conviction of Watkins' killer or killers, said Matthew Higgens, who works in Giuliani's press office.
Giuliani attended the wake for Watkins yesterday in New York and said a few words. Higgins said Giuliani also would attend the funeral if his schedule permitted.
"This heinous crime is made all the more tragic because Amy Watkins came to New York City from her Kansas hometown to help others," Giuliani said in a prepared statement. "Tragically, her promising life was cut short by a vicious predator. But her gentle spirit and devotion to others has touched all New Yorkers."
Marc Wilson, Watkins' friend and 1995 KU graduate, said that the media attention had been somewhat of an intrusion for the friends and family.
If it happens that Wilson said, "But the attention has made the family and friends feel better. We know that there's a real effort to find out who did this."
Watkins' funeral is scheduled for 10 a.m. today at the Church of the Resurrection in Manhattan, N.Y.
There also will be a graveside service at 1 p.m. tomorrow at Bellerive Heritage Garden Cemetery in St. Louis.
A memorial fund has been established for Watkins at the YWCA Battered Women Task Force, 225 S.W. 12th St., in Tonka Call (785) 354-7927 for more information.
An additional fund has been started in New York. Checks can be sent to the Amy M. Watkins Memorial c/o Mr. Lawrence Watkins, 20 E. 74th St. Apt. 76, New York, N.Y. 10021.

The Agriculture Council of America chose the Pendletons to travel to Washington D.C., along with a family from Wisconsin, to speak with children at six inner-city schools about farming as part of National Agriculture Week, March 14-19.
The Pendletons will attend a reception hosted by the ACA, where Secretary of Agriculture Dan Glickman, a former
"We looked at about 10 to 15 families nominated by commodity groups across the board, and Farmland Industries in Kansas City nominated the Pendletons," said Kathleen Montgomery, public relations director for the ACA. "Part of their appeal was that they not only represent typical Kansas farmers, but that they also grow minor crops and flowers."
This is the first year that the week has included interaction between farmers and inner-city children.
The growing divide between city and rural life is a reason that the Pendletons, who have always lived in Lawrence, think talking to children living in a big city is crucial.
"I think its important for kids in big cities and in Lawrence to know where their food and clothing comes from," Karen Pendleton said. "People need to be concerned about the people actually growing those products. The cities and farms are getting farther and farther apart. In some ways it's more of an education for my kids to be able to see a big city."
Kansas congressman, will be in attendance. Linda Tuttle helps the Pendletons in their greenhouse. The greenhouse holds rows and rows of hydroponically-grown tomatoes, which means that water is the main source of fertilization for the plants. Tuttle said she agreed that the polarization of the cities and the country was growing.
"When you have always lived in an area surrounded by concrete, it is hard to remember the parts of life that do not occur in the city," Tuttle said. "Agriculture is still a very important industry in the U.S. It is one of the few things that is still exported on a world market."
ine Pendletons will tell students about how they produce corn, wheat and soybeans, typical Kansas crops, on their 400-acre farm and how they have sold vegetables at their country market since the early '80s, when they stopped breeding cattle.
"We started producing asparagus, and people would come out to buy $10 of asparagus and hand us a $2 bill and say what else can you sell me," John Pendleton said. "That's when we started growing tomatoes."
Their country market now sells flowers as well, which Karen Pendleton, who used to work in the gerontology center at the University of Kansas, said sell better than the produce.
The irony, say the Pendletonts, is that flowers are easy to grow and do not involve the unending work that comes with the asparagus season in April and May. During that time, the couple hires about 30 part-time workers to help harvest. Work starts at 7:30 a.m.
produce. "People are willing to spend more for what they look at than for what they eat," she said.
Karen Pendleton said, "People can make much more money doing something much easier."

Student's $75,000 lawsuit arrives too late to discipline fraternity
Matthew Prime, St. Louis junior, has filed a $75,000 lawsuit against the Kansas chapter of Pi Kappa Alpha, the National Pi Kappa Alpha Fraternity, the University of Kansas, the Kansas Board of Regents, Mount Oread Housing Corporation and six individuals who were on the 1997 Pi Kappa Alpha executive board.
The suit comes two years after a Feb. 27 incident in which Prime experienced a 12-hour coma caused by alcohol poisoning. Prime holds the named parties responsible for his ordeal.
Although the damages may be extensive, Prime and his attorney, Theodore Lickteig, should have filed suit long ago. Now, after two years of rebuilding, rehabilitation and reforming Pi Kappa Alpha, the fraternity must face another penalty.
Pi Kappa Alpha already has received punishment for a 1997 hazing incident.
Pi Kappa Alpha already has paid the price.
Bill Nelson, coordinator for Greek Programs, said that when the University found the chapter guilty of hazing, a strict suspension was enforced. Nelson said most of the privileges fraternities and sororites were granted were revoked from the chapter and additional responsibilities were implemented. He said also that about 50 members were removed from the chapter and that the remaining members have been meeting with suspension liaisons. Nelson and Danny Kaiser, director of the Organizations and Leadership Development Center, who have been helping to rehabilitate the chapter.
And the Kansas chapter of Pl Kappa Alpha has indeed reformed. Only two of the chapters current members were affiliated at the time of the incident. Prime should not have waited two years to file the lawsuit because now he is affecting a new group of innocent people. The chapter's two-year minimum suspension will be reviewed and possibly removed on April1.
Lickteig said the suit took two years to be filed because of the time it took to evaluate the case and to put the information together.
Nevertheless, the incident occurred long ago, and the chapter has faced penalties. Both parties should be able to move on. Instead, Prime is dredging up the past and demanding money. Prime should not be suing the defendants two years after the fact; it only prolongs the anxiety of both parties.

Group blowing whistle on violence
Today is the last day that members of Working Against Violence Everywhere will pass out safety whistles in an effort to increase campus safety. Students concerned for their safety on campus should take the time to pick up a whistle.
According to Jane Stoever, WAVE vice-president, whistles are a safe way for women to protect themselves.
"Unlike mace or a knife, a whistle really can't be used against you, it is a preventive measure," Stoever said. "If someone is approaching you, you can blow the whistle and deter them."
A safety whistle allows someone who believes he or she is in trouble to call for help more effectively than other
Working Against Violence Everywhere whistles still are available on campus today.
methods, such as yelling. The whistle is a distinctive noise that should signal to others that someone is in trouble.
WAVE will distribute 9,000 whistles this week on campus. The whistles were bought thanks to a $3,000 grant that the group received from Coca-Cola.
becomes useless. This is similar to cases in which people ignore car alarms because of so many false alarms.
It is important that students do not use these whistles as toys. If students blow whistles when they are not in danger, then blowing a whistle for help
WAVE members have received encouragement from many who already have received safety whistles. Students who have received whistles expressed gratitude that someone was working for campus safety. According to WAVE, a number of students have expressed concern about safety on campus.
WAVE also is working on other campus safety issues including better campus lighting and developing a campus walk program.
Students who wish to pick up a free safety whistle can do so today in front of Wescoe Hall.

Perspective
Recently, I was listening to Pat Buchanan ranting about the evils of popular music. On the other side of the political fence, Al and Tipper Gore sound a similar battle cry.
Parents' clout eclipses influence of pop music
They both conclude that strong families are the only things that can save us from our musical demons. Although I think they're way off base about the influence of popular music, I agree with them wholeheartedly about the importance of family.

Various people have waged a war against controversial music for some time. I remember when I was 5 years old and had just
Robert K. Funk
opinion@kansan.com
It was — and still is — very hokey, but at 5 years old, I thought it was all pretty neat. Needless to say, my parents were less than thrilled. When I listened to my Kiss albums in the house, I had to use headphones — my folks didn't want that kind of music playing from the speakers.
While growing up, I was bombarded with propaganda about Kiss. I attended church group meetings on a regular basis back then, and the group leaders often would play tapes that supposedly had been made by playing Kiss albums backward. These tapes were supposed to expose Satanic messages that Kiss had "backmasked" into the albums.
I probably heard those tapes a dozen times, and I never heard anything other than garbled sound, similar to what one would expect to hear when playing albums backward.
The church groups always handed out long lists of evil musicians that people should avoid listening to at all costs. One of the musicians who always made those lists was a bat-eating alcoholic named Ozzy Osbourne.
I remember when a young man killed himself after listening to one of Ozzy's songs, "Suicide Solution." The boy's family blamed Ozzy for the death of their son.
The family took the position that Ozzy's music was the sole reason the son was dead, and the pseudo-religious right was quick to rally behind them.
Did these people really believe that an otherwise mentally healthy young man would take his own life at the behest of Ozzy Osbourne?
Did they really want to give a drunken rocker that much power?
I think it's clear that the young man had other problems, serious problems, and he apparently didn't have a support structure there when he needed it. That young man could have been listening to REM's "Shiny Happy People," and he still would have killed himself.
I also remember when "gangster rap" emerged in the late 1980s. I'm from a small town in rural western Kansas, but gangster rap still was popular among the high school kids. We listened to it while lifting weights and before sports practices.
It seems that our parents did their jobs. They raised us in an imperfect world, knowing that we would be exposed to horrible evils such as Kiss, Ozzy and gangster rap. They taught us how to deal with such things, knowing that we would soon be on our own and have to deal with them ourselves. In other words, they upheld their end of the social contract.
According to the proponents of censorship, we should have been treating women as objects and committing various acts of violence, but for some reason, we weren't.
I occasionally still listen to music that is considered controversial. I even attended the recent Marilyn Manson show at the Granada, 1020 Massachusetts St. To the surprise of Manson's detractors, I haven't gone out and molested any children or committed any acts of bestiality. The truth is, I'm getting older, and my musical tastes now run to Chopin, Vivaldi and Rachmaninoff.
I think listening to controversial music is a phase, a part of growing up. I listened to Kiss. Kids before me listened to the Rolling Stones, and kids before that listened to the Beatles. Kids after me listened to Motley Crue, and now the kids are listening to Marilyn Manson. When Manson is no longer shocking, someone else will be.
If parents do their jobs, no music can lead their kids astray. If they don't do their jobs, we're in trouble no matter what music happens to be playing in the background. Parents should leave the musicians alone and concentrate instead on teaching their kids how to live in an imperfect world.

Blood donor rule works to save recipients' lives
It is appalling that homosexuals have been denied employment and housing solely on the basis of their sexual orientation. It is disturbing that they cannot legally marry
whom they love. But it is both reasonable and good public policy that men who have had sex with other men not be allowed to donate blood.
The Food and Drug Administration policy barring men who have had sex with other men since 1977 from giving blood is not about homophobia. It's about preventing the transmission of a fatal disease.
Rachel Robson
Guest columnist
Of course, having had male-to-male intercourse
doesn't necessarily mean that one carries a disease. Neither does having a piercing in the past year, having a family member with Creutzfeldt-Jacob disease or having visited Africa. But all of these things increase the risk of disease transmission.
Although it has been observed that new HIV infections are not occurring among gay men as quickly as they are in straight women, the percentage of gay men infected — 49 percent of all American HIV cases, according to the Center for Disease Control—still is much greater than the percentage infected in any other demographic group.
And no one can accuse blood banks of homophobia toward lesbians. With the lowest-risk sexual behavior save cabibacy, lesbians are welcomed to blood banks with open arms.
To insure that diseases aren't passed from blood donor to recipient, blood centers ask a series of questions to all potential donors to determine whether the donors are at a high risk for any of a number of blood-borne diseases — not just HIV.
The centers ask if the donor has been to Africa or if the donor has been incarcerated. They ask about growth hormones and body piercing. And yes, they ask about one's sexuality.
Some call this an invasion of privacy and argue that it "smacks of homophobia," as Raven Heavy Runner was quoted in the March 2 University Daily Kansan. It's not. It's a defense of public health.
why can't blood centers just test the blood and leave the personal questions out of it? Testing for blood is not that simple. Tests can't always detect a disease-causing pathogen—even if it's there.
The HIV test detects antibodies to the virus
In "Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome," a textbook on HIV and AIDS, author Gerald Stine points out that such screening criteria has reduced the potential blood donor pool by 10 to 15 percent. When only 20 percent of the population is eligible to donate blood, and only 4 percent does so, according to the American Association of Blood Banks, a 10 to 15 percent reduction is pretty significant.
When the question of sexuality first was mandated by the FDA, blood centers balked: "...Gays represented one of the most loyal donor groups," Starr wrote. "No one wanted to lose the best donors or contribute in any way to anti-yay prejudice."
The personal questions asked by blood centers save lives, which is why they are asked. Blood bankers, who are trying to get as much safe blood as possible, obviously would prefer not to have to ask such questions.
It is understandable that gay men, who have faced such malicious discrimination in other areas, might see homophobic intent in the FDA regulations. But such intent is not there. The only intent behind the regulations is to provide safe blood to the patients who need it.
Giving blood is a selfless act. But charging that all have an equal right to donate when medical science and bitter history show the tragic consequences of this belief is selfish in the extreme.
not the virus itself. It takes a human body time to develop antibodies after it has been infected. Sometimes that time is in months. Sometimes it is years.
In any case, during that time, an infected donor would come up clean and pass the disease on to a blood transfusion recipient. When questions aren't asked, blood recipients die.
Treating people equally is important, but saving lives is more important. Lives are saved by screening blood donors with otherwise private questions.
Well-meaning officials in France learned this lesson in 1992 when a group of hemophiliacs sued them for collecting and transfusing tainted blood. The blood had been collected from prisoners — a known high-risk group — because it was thought that the altruistic act of donating would help rehabilitate them, Douglas Starr writes in "Blood: An Epic History of Medicine and Commerce."
Our formerly egalitarian attitude toward blood donors also has cost lives. The first was a baby, given blood from a healthy-looking man in 1982. Starr wrote. If the right questions had been asked, the baby — and the many who followed her — could have been saved.

KU opposes marital discrimination
By Clay McCuistion Special to the Kansan
The University of Kansas doesn't want to discriminate against students, staff or faculty based on marital status.
To achieve this, Gay and Lesbian Academic and Staff Advocates proposed that KU apply its nondiscrimination policy equally to its different offices. Provost David Shulenburger and University staff held two meetings with organization representatives, one in mid-October, and a second before winter break. In the meetings, Shulenburger agreed to make changes.
University policy forbids discrimination based on a number of classifications. Sexual orientation was added to the list in the late '70s.
Maurice Bryan, assistant to the provost and director of the equal opportunity office said, "We're finetuning the application of the policy."
KU is limited in the benefits it can extend on its own. Medical leave, health care, pensions and residency
are among benefits administered by the Board of Regents to all state universities.
At issue were the policies KU controlled involving definitions of family. Child care facilities, family student housing and scholarships available to children of KU employees were discussed. Shulenburger verbally agreed to oversee changes in these areas if needed.
"Everything we agreed to get changed we will get changed. We'll go through the proper administrative channels." Shulenburger said.
A proposal for a specific domestic partner designation was rejected by the Shulenburger.
"We just can't go along with that at this time," Sulenburger said. "It's better to apply benefits as widely as we can."
Rob Melton, former president of GLASA and a representative of the group at the meetings, said he was pleased with their outcome. However, Melton said a formal domestic partnership designation would be useful.
The policy proposed would have
"Speaking as a faculty member, my concern primarily would be in getting the best faculty members we can get at KU, regardless of sexual orientation or marital status."
Rob Melton
Rob Melton former GLASA president
instituted six requirements for either same-sex or opposite-sex unmarried couples. When the requirements were fulfilled, a couple could then receive domestic partnership benefits.
"We actually thought we were looking out for the University rather than our own interests," Melton said.
The lack of a written agreement didn't bother Melton.
"It's kind of a verbal understand
ing, not something that's a written change in policy," he said. "I trust the provost implicitly."
Melton's main concern was spousal hiring policies.
"Speaking as a faculty member, my concern primarily would be in getting the best faculty members we can get at KU, regardless of sexual orientation or marital status," he said.
Christine Robinson, the other GLASA representative to attend the meeting and Quers and Allies director, said she also was pleased
Robinson said that Shulenburger had assured them that unmarried couples would be given the same access to facilities and services as anyone else at the University.
Although the initial proposal was submitted April 8,1998,a meeting was not held until six months later.
"I felt that the time taken to review our proposal was very reasonable given how busy the Provest is and given the complexity of the issues we raised in our proposal," Robinson said.

Senator seeks apology for vandalism of Web site
By Nadia Mustafa
nmustafa@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
A student senator is demanding an apology from the unknown individual who posted an allegedly defamatory statement and link on the Student Senate Web site last weekend.
The statement and link, which were removed Tuesday, read "Delta Force Fighting Honkey" on the St. Patrick's Day period of the online Senate calendar. There also was a link to "The Patriot Page" (www.patriot.org), the Web site of a right-wing political organization dedicated to rediscovering the founding principles of the United States.
Amy Cummins, graduate senator, said that the posting was inaccurate, inappropriate and offensive. She said that the posting was an attempt to defame the coalition because the term "honkey" was a racial insult
that Delta Force members would not use.
"I was a bit offended by the nonsensical connection of "The Patriot Page" to Student Senate." Cummins said. "It's obvious that this link is not one endorsed by Student Senate or any other student organization. However, this does seem to be an antagonistic act towards the student organization and perhaps even to Senate."
This week's incident on the Senate Web site was not the first Senate-related violation of KU "Netiquette." Someone hacked Student Body Vice President Scott Kaiser's e-mail account from a computer in the Senate office during winter break.
And during campaign time last spring, unknown individuals used computers in the Senate office to forward other people's saved and sent messages to themselves or to others
Cummins said that the events last spring were politically motivated,
again aimed at Delta Force members.
"I am concerned with the electronic misdeeds which have been perpetrated on Student Senate in recent months," she said. "I hope that Senate can solve this problem and that the people who violate Netiquette will stop doing so."
Marlon Marshall, Senate Web master and engineering senator, said that anyone could contribute to the online Senate calendar. But, he said that if the abuse became extensive, he would remove the calendar from the Web site.
"I don't think it's right that people would put something negative on the Senate Web site." Marshall said. "That's not what it is for."
Julie Numrich, Senate executive chair, oversees the Senate Web site. She said that she did not think a senator posted the statement and link.
"It's someone who knows something about Senate and the coalitions."
Numrich said, "But I don't think it's anyon involved with the campaign."
Seth Hoffman, Delta Force president and Nunemaker senator, said that it was unfortunate that whoever made the posting did not instead initiate a healthy discussion with the coalition.
"It's one of those mindless antics that seemed to have plagued Senate this year." he said.
Korb Maxwell, YOU president and Student Legislative Awareness Board legislative director, said no one from the YOU coalition was responsible for the posting.
"We're running a positive campaign," he said. "We have no interest in doing that kind of stuff. As far as I'm concerned, Delta Force isn't even out there. I'm running my own campaign."
About 20 people visit the Senate Web site daily, which is at www.ukans.edu/~senate.

Lawrence figures involved in new Cherokee constitution
By Katie Burford and Dan Curry
k burfur @ kansan.com ,
deury@kansan.com
Kansan staff writers
Delegates from the Cherokee Nation recast their constitution last week, and some prominent Lawrence figures had a hand in the changes.
The proposed changes will include more members from outside Oklahoma in the legislative process.
One of the changes that is especially significant for Kansas Cherokees is the creation of two new seats on the tribal council, the Cherokee Nation's legislative branch, that will be open to people living outside of Oklahoma. Porter said.
Sgt. George Wheeler of the Lawrence Police Department, a member of the Cherokee Nation, served as a delegate at the Cherokee Constitutional Convention; Robert Porter, associate professor of law and director of the Tribal Law and Government Center, was the keynote speaker; and Charles Gourd, who earned a doctorate in anthropology from the University of Kansas, acted as chairman at the convention.
The convention began Feb. 26 at Northeastern State University in Tahlequah, Okla., and moved March 4 to the Cherokee Nation Tribal Complex council chambers in Tahlequah.
Tammy Hammer, member of the Cheroke Nation and second-year Haskell student, said the changes
Previously, Kansas Cherokees could vote in council elections, but only people who lived in a designated 14 county area in Oklahoma could run for the council. The change would mean that residents of Kansas could participate directly in the legislative process, Porter said.
Ellen Allen at the Haskell Indian Nations University admissions office said 70 Cherokee students attended the university.
The registration office at the Cherokee Nation headquarters said that 124,218 Cherokee live in Oklahoma and 5,831 live in Kansas.
The Cherokee is the largest group of Native Americans, having 369, 035 members according to the 1990 U.S. Census.
were good because not all Cherokees benefited equally from their membership in the Nation.
"I know that a lot of their services that they offer are just for people within their borders," she said.
The more people included in the decision-making process the better, she said.
Another important change to the constitution was striking the word "Oklahoma" when referring to the Cherokee Nation. Wheeler said.
In the old version of the constitution, the Cherokee Nation referred to itself as the "Cherokee Nation of Oklahoma."
The new version doesn't exclude any Cherokee, Wheeler said.
signed by President Clinton or his official delegate.
Wheeler said that the revised constitution still needed to be approved by the Secretary of the Interior and
The chances of approval are very good, said Ed Jumper, administrative assistant for the constitutional convention.
Porter said that the Cherokee had the oldest indigenous constitutional republic.
"They were one of first Indian nations to assimilate an American form of government," he said.
By Joe Byrd, chief of the Cherokee Nation, will speak about the new constitution to Haskell Indian Nations University students at 7 p.m. March 19 at the Rose Room in Curtis Hall.
A draft of the new constitution is available at the Cherokee Nation's Web site, www.cherokee.org/ccc/adopted_draft.htm.

Events planned to make spring break safe
By Katia Burford and T.J. Johnson

Kansas staff writers
Irresponsible driving, unsafe sex and alcohol abuse are spring break behaviors that Safe Break, a series of events slated for next week, aims to prevent.
The slogan for this year's program is "Operation '99: Your mission is to make smart sensible choices, which in turn will result in a safe spring break."
Safe break, which is sponsored by Watkins Memorial Health Center and the KU Public Safety Office, has events scheduled for March 15, 16 and 17.
"It is important to educate and inform students so that they can completely enjoy spring break and not have unforeseen consequences," said Aimee Foppe, a health educator at Watkins.
SAFE BREAK EVENTS
On Monday, an event called "He

"The Rollover Machine," demonstrated from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Wednesday at Wescoe Beach. Watkins Memorial Health Center employees also will distribute spring break care packages.
Said, She Said”—a discussion on sexual communication—will take place from 8 to 11 p.m. at the main lobby in Corbin Hall, Adam Yarbrough, former resident assistant, and Laura Bennett, director of scholarships at Watkins Scholarship Hall, will lead the discussion.
"Perspectives can differ when seen through a man or a women's eyes." Bennett said.
She said they hoped to spark a lively and open discussion.
There also will be a drawing for prizes, such as T-shirts, food coupons and a free message.
On Tuesday, mock-cocktails,
such as non-alcoholic margaritas,
pifa coladas and daiquiris, will be served from 6 to 7:30 p.m. at Ekdahl Dining Commons.
Also Tuesday, the 1975 thriller Jaws will be shown at 9 p.m. at the pool area in Robinson Center. At the event, called "Jaws in the Pool," students either can float in the pool or sit in bleachers while they watch the movie.
Thirty flotation devices will be provided, or students can bring their own. Lifeguards will be present, and students wishing to enter the pool must wear proper swim attire.
"The rollover machine" will be
set up in front of Wescoe Hall Wednesday to show students what happens during a crash when a person isn't wearing a seat belt, said Sgt. Troy Mailen of the KU Public Safety Office.
At a 10 a.m. presentation Wednesday, Chancellor Robert Hemenway will sign a certificate to show KU's support of safety belts and child safety seats. The certificate is part of the Kansas Department of Transportation's "Buck Up Kansas" effort to educate citizens about the importance of these devices.
Wednesday in front of Wescow, representatives from Watkins will give away 500 care packages containing sunscreen, condoms, antibiotic cream, band-aids and general information about keeping safe.
Safe Break has been a part of prespring break student education for eight years.

Students, faculty hear plans for Regents restructuring
By Kristi Reimer
kreimer@kanson.com
Kanson staff writer
Board of Regents staff members offered faculty and students a rundown on higher-education issues before the Legislature at a meeting of the University Senate yesterday afternoon.
Marvin Burris, director of planning, budget and governmental affairs, explained and answered questions about three plans to restructure the way post-secondary education is governed in Kansas.
One plan is Senate Bill 345, which would abolish the Board of Regents and re-establish a new nine-member board Aug. 1. The new board would comprise three subboards — one to oversee public universities, one for community colleges and technical schools and one for coordination issues.
Faculty members questioned certain aspects of the plan.
psychology
Mary Hawkins, Spencer Research librarian, asked how disputes would be resolved when all three boards had parallel power.
"The three-three-three plan sounds like a formula for a tremendous amount of infighting," said Bob Hohn, professor of psychology.
"It's my understanding that the full board would have final authority," said Tom Bryant, Regents interim director.
Burris said he had read the draft of another plan prepared by Sen. Dave Kerr, R-Hutchinson, chairman of the Ways and Means Committee. Burris said the plan would transfer governance of community and technical colleges to the Board of Regents and implement performancebased funding for those schools.
He said a plan created by the Governor's Task Force for Higher Education Structure for Excellence was stuck in the House Taxation Committee. The plan would require a constitutional amendment because it calls for two new boards.
"As far as we know, it's DOA," Burris said.
When asked if the Regents favored one plan, Bryant said the board was opposed to any plan that would require a constitutional amendment. He said the board would discuss the plans at its meeting next week.
rine Regents staff members also reaffirmed their commitment to raising faculty salaries.
"The government has thrown us a little bit of money, and we are appreciative, but we are not backing off." Bryant said.

ROAD RAGE
THREATENS DRIVER SAFETY
Increased traffic personality types contribute to growing aggression
Breedlove did was 728 miles per hour. Seven of the car's let me go along so far. Fast THROUGH THE SOUTH BARRIER I wiper panels D wiper arms ALL Dressed UP AND
More drivers are on the road than ever before. That means more traffic, more accidents and more irritation with the way other people are driving. Across the United States, road rage is prevalent and on the rise.
People having crue, what drives Jason Crue, Lansing freshman, absolutely crazy.
"When people drive slowly, I ride their bumper or pull around in front of them and slow down," Crue said. "I live in Lansing, and I like to get home fast. I go home to do laundry, but I want to get back here and get things done."
When the American Automobile Association Foundation for Traffic Safety studied more than 10,000 incidents of violent aggressive driving committed between 1900 and 1996, it found that at least 218 people were killed and 12,610 were injured when drivers got angry. According to the HAA, many of the drivers involved in the incidents were men between the ages of 18 and 26
Sgt. Steve Jensen, of the Kansas Highway Patrol, said he had seen some increase in road rage incidents, which he attributed to traffic volume being higher than ever.
Classifying road rage
"We're a very hurried society," jensen said.
"You are pushing yourself constantly, and when someone makes a mistake in front of you, that is not very acceptable."
Jensen recommended that drivers leave 15 minutes earlier than necessary. More time to drive decreases the panic inherent in running late. Jensen also recommended that people stop doing things such as drinking coffee, talking on the phone and reading while they are driving. Such distractions lead to poor driving habits that can irritate other drivers.
Perhaps some people have forgotten how perilous driving actually is because it has become such a primary mode of transportation. Every 13 minutes someone dies in an automobilie accident, and every 10 seconds someone is injured, Jensen said.
"We need to get back to a basic focus on driving," Jensen said. "It's the most dangerous thing we do. We've become complacent because we have driven from point A to point B so often."
Although the AAA found more incidents of violence while driving among men, Jensen said that he had reports of road rage from both sexes.
"Guys are more likely to get violent because it's kind of a macho thing," Jensen said. "But we had a report of a girl in Kansas City, Missouri, who shot a guy who had tried to knock on her window."
How to avoid road rage:
Don't offend other drivers.
Don't cut drivers off.
Don't drive slowly in the left lane.
Don't tailgate.
Don't make obscene gestures.
Don't engage in violence.
Steer clear of angry drivers.
Avoid eye contact with angry drivers.
Information provided by the Kansas Highway Patrol
If a driver catches himself or herself yelling at someone, making rude hand gestures, slamming on the brakes or cutting another driver off — all symptoms of road rage — Jensen said the person should take a step back and reevaluate his or her actions.
Determining the cause
Stephen hardi, assistant professor of psychology, said that certain personality types, specifically Type A personalities, might be more inclined to roadrage.
People who are Type A are generally more organized, more detail-oriented and more prone to stress. Hardi said people who were Type A were also more likely to experience high blood pressure, hypertension and cardiovascular diseases.
"Type A behavior includes a sense of extreme time urgency that's unrelenting." Hardi said. "They are always in a hurry, and if there is any perceived time delay, it is seen as a personal affront, like, 'This person's incompetence is causing me to lose precious seconds.'"
There is a second personality trait that might be more prone to road rage, lardi said. Some people are able to control their negative impulses, but those with an impulsivity trait tend to act rashly.
"Impulsivity refers to the ability to inhibit impulses," lardi said. "Sometimes it is very difficult to reign your impulses. Most of us say, 'Yeah, that would be good for a second,' but then we realize that our actions have consequences."
Being shielded from other drivers by the glass and steel of a car could also cause some people to act out their aggression against other drivers. Ilard said people should track their aggress-
Hards said people should track their aggress- and identity patterns.
"They should think, What is at stake here?
How much am I really going to lose in the grand scheme of things," Hardi said.
Raging in Lawrence
Aaron Bartlett, Lawrence transportation planner, said that traffic congestion was a problem in Lawrence that could cause heightened anger on the road but that people should keep their reactions in check.
Compared with driving on the East and West Coasts, the Midwest has less congestion and fewer accidents. What is considered a traffic jam in Lawrence is a light day in Los Angeles.
Naomi Carson, St. Louis sophomore, thinks that Kansans have it easy when it comes to heavy traffic.
"I was just talking to my friend the other day, and she was saying how she hated traffic. She
was getting kind of angry about it," Carson said. "And I told her that this was nothing compared to the traffic in St. Louis."
Barlett said he thought road rage was a product of drivers' attitudes on the road.
"It's a response factor and has more to do with the way people react." Bartlett said. "Road rage is a change in society's idea of how long it should take to get somewhere. There's no way to completely get rid of road rage. It's just too bad that we have to teach people to be nice." Making new laws
In a pamphlet distributed by the Kansas Highway Patrol, driving slowly in the left lane was cited as one cause for road rage. State State Senator Ben Vidricksen, R-Salina and chair of the transportation committee, said he had tried earlier
this year to pass a bill that would have made it illegal to drive continuously in the left lane on the highway when there was no one in the right lane. Whether there was an infraction of the law would be a judgment call on the part of highway patrol, Vidricksen said.
"A law like this has worked in Oklahoma because it has been found that slow drivers in the left lane is one of the biggest causes of road rage." Vydickson said. "People don't want to pass on the right because it scares them. It that person then pulls into the right lane and hits you, then it's your fault."
Vidricken said he did not believe the bill would be passed this year.
"I have a very obstinate committee," Vidrick-sen said. "Some people think we've got enough laws already."
Corruptor fails to blend action into story line
THE BOYS
Mark Wohlberg and Chow Yun-Fat are the ambigiously good duo in the action film. The Corrupper.
MOVIE REVIEW
The Corruptor
Rating : C
By Brendan Walsh Kansan movie critic
Action movies are made for male adolescents who don't like football, but still feel the need to watch valiant gladiators battle it out on screen.
Intricate plots only get in the way of speeding cars and whizzing bullets, so distractions in action movies are usually limited to naked women who still keep teen-agers' attention.
Action movies that try to create a story line with any subtleties have to avoid upsetting the die-hard action fans and distracting audience members, who are into a plot with gratuitous violence.
Two rival gangs, the Triads and the Fukienese Dragons, are battling for control of the streets and lucrative profits from illegal Chinese immigrants employed in prostitution and sweatshops.
Nick Chen (Chow Yun-Fat) and Danny Wallace (Mark Wahlberg) are police officers in Los Angeles's Chinatown. Yun-Fat plays the decorated veteran cop, while Wahlberg portrays the stereotypical idealistic rookie.
It's a difficult feat to accomplish, but in the Corruptor director James Foley, tries just that, but falls short.
Despite Chen's wonderful track record, he's on the take
from one of the gang's leaders. In exchange for information about drugs and illegal immigrants, Chen ignores prostitution and gambling. In Chen's mind, he's doing the greater good. However, he works hard to keep Wallace on the up-and-up.
After an undercover FBI agent working in Chinatown is killed, the agents start looking at Chen and Wallace, and launch an investigation looking for corruption. The FBI motives contrast the questionable stance of Chen, and Wallace is trapped somewhere in between.
Much of The Corruptor is comprised of the 3-second scenes and tight editing that makes up so many action movies. The plot is surprisingly intricate,
The movie is no Star Wars when it comes to blending action with intrigue, but at least it tries. The long car chase scene, although full of gore, is almost as good as the famed car chases in The French Connection. There is more gunfire in this movie than there was in Desert Storm, and more blood than one would find at a Red Cross blood bank.
Wahlberg did a better acting job in the video for Good Vibrations, and Yun-Fat is hardly "the coolest actor in the world," as the Los Angeles Times once labeled him.
and the moral ambiguity of the good guys is refreshing.
The movie's racist jokes about Chinatown and the Chinese will be bothersome if audience members think too deeply, but action fans will enjoy the explosions, gore and gunfights.
Bare Jr.'s new album kicks some Boo-Tay
MUSIC
REVIEW
Bare Jr.
Boo-Tay
Rating : B
By Matt Cox
Kansan music boy
Bare Jr. ignites the modern rock scene with sarcastic lyrics, heart-felt vocals, and divergent rock.
The album Boo-Tay is the outlet for guitarist/lead vocalist Bobby Bare Jr. to get everything off his chest. The lyrics are hilarious and the music is notable.
Their current single on 105.9 KLZIR is You Blew Me Off. It is a sarcastic twist on man's desire to have what he can't and woman's attempt to play hard to get.
Bare sings "If you ignore me you get my respect. When you turn to hug me I like you less."
The music is typical rock but with noticeable extra power and extremity.
Patty McBride, a country-influenced rock tune, starts of with a sweet sounding dulcimer, soon to be complemented with electric guitar strums. There's nothing intense about the song but it's an entertaining tribute to a singer you can't help but love because of her beauty and talent.
Another song, *Soggy Daisy*, is a different kind of tribute. It is a reminder that residents of nursing homes are people, too. Bare words, "Seven lonely people all died in one day. Seven people put away and forgotten. Seven people with a lifetime of wisdom for the offering."
It's a solo acoustic song by Bare who goes on to give descriptions of the people who
died to drive home the point that the dead should be respected.
Give Nothing Away, starts off dangerously close to Everclear's Everything to Everyone, but then continues with a more complicated structure similar to that of U2, assuring the listener that Bare Jr. are more talented than Everclear, which isn't saying much. The song is about a relationship, and the hardships of starting out.
The lyrics are funny and sincere as Bare sings, "Sometimes at the movies I buy you a soda, you do just sit a little bit closer." He goes on to preach that you can't get if you don't give.
The hidden track is one of the funniest hidden tracks to date. It begins with a recorded message from his ex-girlfriend on his answering machine. She tells him never to call again and yells at him for apparently cheating on her.
The girl says, "Guess what? I found out. Don't call me, don't come up to me if you see me out, don't write me a letter and don't write me a song."
Two seconds later Bare sings "I wrote this song for my girl. It's all about her, it's all about her, it's all about Pearl." The song is a comical response to his ex-girlfriend that anyone would enjoy.
Songs like I Hate Myself and Tobacco Spit are the low lights of the album with trite themes and tired music common to modern rock radio. The lyrics are still sarcastic and witty, but the songs as a whole don't live up to the rest of the album.
Bare Jr. may have more singles off this album and they should. The combination of punch music and witty lyrics make Boo-tay a must-have for country/rock and pop/rock fans.

Kansas baseball to play unranked Iowa State team
By Matt Tait
mtait@kansan.com
Kansan sportwriter
Finally there appears to be a break in the Kansas baseball team's tough early schedule.
The Jayhawks first 15 games have been against three of the country's top teams: Nevada, Texas Tech and Texas. Ten of these games were played away from home.
After opening its home season being swept by Texas, Kansas will play host to Iowa State on Sunday, a team in a similar situation to the Jayhawks.
The Cyclones stand at 5-8 overall and are winless in Big 12 Conference play at 0-3. Kansas is 3-12 overall and 0-6 in the conference.
Despite the disappointing start, the Jayhawks remain upbeat about the season. Its play against Texas indicated that notion.
"You have to play great baseball to beat those top 10 teams," catcher Shane Wedd said. "And against Texas, I think we played good baseball and we can turn this around."
"I'm really looking forward to us playing better baseball," coach Bobby Randall said. "It all starts with execution, execution, execution, and you can spell that with an F for fundamentals."
Even though the Cyclones are not a national powerhouse like Texas, Kansas knows it still must play better to beat them.
Iowa State, where Randall spent the majority of his coaching career before coming to Kansas, comes into the series after being swept last weekend by Texas A&M.
The Hawkeyes are led by offensive threat Aaron Runk, who is hitting .392 and has two home runs and 10 RBI this season. The ace of the Cyclones' pitching staff is Brian Curtin. He is 2-2 with an era near 5.0 and is second on the team with 23 innings pitched.
He is expected to start game two and will face Jayhawk ace Rusty Philbrick.
The series was scheduled to be played in Ames, Iowa, but anticipated bad weather forced the series to move to Lawrence.
Wedd said that playing at home was an added treat to getting a break in the schedule.
"Iowa State is a tough place to play so it will be nice to be here," Wedd said. "It's always a bonus to be at home, but whether it's Iowa State or Texas, our focus right now is on playing better baseball and winning some games."
The doubleheader is expected to be played in less than ideal temperatures. There is a chance for snow and the highs will be in the 30s, but the teams have agreed to play two games Sunday, starting at noon.
Senior Chris Williams is expected to be the Jayhawks' starting pitcher for the first game.

Kansas prepares to face dangerous Evansville

In addition, all five eves percent or better from the fien.
"I think they are really dangerous, es when they shoot free throws that well."
Williams said. "You have to get up so close to them and try to challenge their three-point shots and jump shot. You can't play zone because they shoot so well and, if you play zone, you still got to shadow the one with the hot-hand which in this case is Marcus Wilson, who is such a great shooter."
Wilson, who was named the MVC Player of the Year after averaging 20.3 points per game, is Evansville's most dangerous scorer, but not their only one. Sophomore forward Craig Snow averages 13.3 points and grabs 5.8 points per game, junior center Kwame James points and ser' Curt Begle, t Man of the Ye points and 5.6 game.

Head coach Jim Crews, who has a 255-159 (.616) record in 14 seasons, has benefited from having one of the best shooting teams in the country. The Purple Aces rank among the nation's top five teams in field-goal percentage

It's never too late to make adjustments, especially when you're playing in the NCAA Tournament.
That's just the attitude Marian Washington and her Jayhawks are taking to West Lafayette, Ind., for the first two rounds of the Midwest regional. Kansas battles the Marquette Golden Eagles at Purdue's Mackey Arena 5 p.m. tomorrow. If the Jayhawks advance, they will face the winner of the Purdue-Oral Roberts match-up at 6:37 p.m. Monday.
The team knows that the effort it put forth in Big 12 Tournament play and the slow starts that have plagued it during the last three weeks won't be enough in the "now or never" format of the NCAAs. So it's time to make some changes.
Kansas shot only 37 percent and amazingly didn't attempt a single free-throw in the first halves of its two Big 12 Tournament games, a trend Washington would like to see end.
Pride and Reves, Kansas' two leading scorers, each said they needed to become more aggressive individually and utilize the on-court communication they had established during the course of the season. Pride said she was glad to have regained an unspoken bond after losing backcourt mate Suzi Raymant to a knee injury.
"We need to push the ball up the floor and be more aggressive offensively," Washington said. "Our guards have to get the ball in a good position to open up Lynn (Pride) and Brooke (Reves)."
"(Suzi and I) really connected and read off
"Jaclyn (Johnson) and Nakia (Sanford) are working on looking up and getting the ball out quickly," she said. "Coach has emphasized an attack offense. Even if there isn't a physical difference, there will be a mental difference."
Reves said the team was working on moving the ball up the court as soon as it grabbed a defensive rebound.
of each other well," Pride said "Towards the end, me and Brooke had that going too."
No matter what the Jayhawks' performance, this year's NCAA Tournament will be much different for Reves, who spent last
year watching at home because of the NCAA's transfer rules.
"It wasn't like I was part of the team," she said. "It's going to be fun being there."
Lineup changes aside, the word attack hasn't been used by many to describe the Kansas scoring offense, which ranked near the bottom of the Big 12 all season long. Instead the Jayhawks have relied their athletic defense to carry them to a 22-9 record.
Although still unhappy about her team receiving a ninth seed in the Midwest Regional, Washington said she liked the Jayhawks' chances of winning in the first

"I really think we're quicker than Marquette," she said. "They definitely look to go inside, so we'll match up with them well."
The No. 1 ranked Purdue Boilermakers, assuming they can defeat 16th-seed Oral Roberts, pose an awesome second round threat. But the Jayhawks say they are not intimidated.
"If the team saw Connecticut or Tennessee ahead, it might be a problem," Washington said. "(Purdue) just doesn't pose the same image in these players' minds."

Commentary Evansville's precise shots will defeat Jayhawks
About 9 tonight, a haze of disappointment once again will blanket the Kansas men's basketball team.
But rankings and history don't win basketball games.
Yes, the Jayhawks will lose to Evansville in the first round of the NCAA tournament.
Making shots does. That's why
And it won't be entirely their fault. The fact is that Kansas is not that good. Sure, the Jayhawks have a No. 22 ranking and history on their side.
the Purple Aces of Evansville will win.
All five of Evansville's starters shoot better than 50 percent. The team ranks in the nation's top three in three shooting categories: field goal percentage.
1983
Mike Harrity
sports@kansan.com
Kansas shoots 44 percent from the field and makes 65 percent of their free throws.
they make more than half their shots, three-point shooting, (40.7 percent) and free throws, hitting almost 80 percent.
One name Jayhawks fans will learn quickly is Marcus Wilson. Wilson, an Evansville guard and the team's best player, will clown whoever guards him — whether it's Jeff Boschee or Ryan Robertson. Tonight's game will conjure memories of last year's second-round tournament loss, when Rhode Island's guard tandem of Tyson Wheeler and Cuttino Mobley scored at will against hapless Jayhawk guards.
True, Evansville lost by 30 to the two teams' lone common opponent. St. Louis, while Kansas only lost by 14.
True, Evansville's lack of size will give the Kansas frontcourt an opportunity to dominate around the basket. Evansville starting forwards, Kwame James and Chris Snow, are 6-foot-8 and 6-foot-7, respectively. Kansas will easily out-rebound Evansville. Kansas center Eric Chenowith will score more than 20 points and will exceed his average of nine rebounds a game.
It still won't be enough.
Wilson, the Missouri Valley Conference player of the year, averaged 20 points a game and is one of the top three-point shooters in the nation. Foul him and, as Roy Williams said, it's like a layup to Wilson, who hits nine out of every 10 free throws.
Think of hot shooting perimeter teams of the past. Think Valparaiso, a No.13 seed in last year's tournament, riding a wave of precision shooting to the Sweet Sixteen. Think Princeton, who, while not in the tournament this year, has made more than a few higher seeds sweat as they worked their highly effective offensive ploys to perfection.
Tonight, think Evansville.
And thank Evansville.
After all, losing tonight alleviates the embarrassment that Kentucky would have held for the Javahawks on Sunday.

Size advantage key to 'Hawk offense
Continued from page 1B
in scoring (13.5) and rebounding (9.2).
"We do have a size advantage when Eric is in the game," Williams said. "When he is not in the game, we are only 6-7, 6-8 ourselves. For it to be an advantage for our team, he is going to have to make his shots."
Williams said that Chenowith should be effective offensively, despite Evansville's attempt to shut him down.
"My guess is that they are going to be physical with him, try to body up to him and try to push him off the block," Williams said. "He has to do a good job of trying to get the best position and hold that position. I think he can be an advantage to us, and we hope to be able to go to him."
Although Kansas and Evansville will meet for the first time since the Jayhawks 59-54 victory Jan. 8, 1983, Williams already is familiar with his opponent. He said that he has known Crews since 1992, when he watched the Purple Aces play in Dayton. (He is the first round of the NCAA Tournament.)
(Onto) in the front of the Neighborhood.
"I know Jimmy and have always liked and enjoyed him," Williams said. "I have a great deal of respect for what he does."
Crews, who played on Indiana's undefeated 1976 NCAA championship team, was quick to praise the Javhawks as well.
"When I think of Kansas, I think of one of the top
four or five programs in the history of college basketball, "Crews said. "They have a great team this year that started to play very well again toward the end of the season."
Crews isn't the only one who thinks the Jayhawks are finally hitting on all cylinders after an up and down season.
"Ireally feel like we're playing our best basketball right now," Kansas senior Ryan Robertson said. "I'm not sure we know how good we can be, but if
we play extremely well and extremely hard, there's no telling how far we can go."
And as a senior who knows every game may be his last, Robertson is hoping to play as long as possible."
"The clock is ticking," Robertson said. "I know the next time we lose will be the last college game I play. I've had a great career and had a fun time playing here, but I'd like to postpone that as long as possible."

Three Jayhawks to dive for title chance

Kansan sportswriter
To the side, judges watch. Judges score. Judges decide who will have a shot at the national title.
And only eight will be selected from each event.
Today, the Kansas diving team will take to the boards in Fayetteville, Ark., for the annual Zone Diving Championships. And senior Deanna Beiswanger, junior Kerri Pribel and freshman Adam Hanhart are accustomed to the pressure.
"By the time the kids get to this level, they're used to it," diving
coach Kevin Lawrence said.
The Zone Championships in Fayetteville, one of the five zone meets that begin today across the country, give divers the chance to qualify for the NCAA National Championships, which begin next weekend for the women.
Since late August, the team has been training to qualify for the Zone meet, and the three divers anticipate a tough time.
"I'm excited." Pribyl said with hesitation. "But it's such a hard meet. You don't know quite what's going to happen."
The meet features some of the best divers in the country, and Pribyl said that she knew she would have to nail every dive if she wanted to place in the top eight.
"If you miss one dive, you're basically out of the running," Pribyl said.
"It's really kind of hard to quality. Beiswanger said." The competition is there; you've got to be your very best."
Lawrence said that the team had been training hard for the Zone Championships all season long and that he thought the three divers were both mentally and physically prepared for peak performance. All
"Zones and conference are two of the biggest meets of the year. It feels good to qualify," Hanhart said. "It's a shame that no other guys did. They did a great job."
Hanhart, who will make his zone debut this weekend, said he was looking forward to the meet but that he was disappointed that no other Jayhawk men qualified.
However, Beiswanger, who has been to the zone meet once before, recognizes how difficult it is to qualify for the meet.
they have to do, he said, is maintain a steady focus.
"The best kids in the country if not the world will be there, and it's going to be really competitive," Lawrence said. "But if the kids keep their heads on their shoulders, they should be all right."
Beiswanger and Pribyl will per form 12 dives on the one-meter board and 11 dives on three-meter. Hanhart will perform 11 dives on both the one-meter and three-meter boards. The Kansas team will not enter the platform competition because is has not had sufficient access to a platform for training.
The women's NCAA Swimming and Diving Championships are March 18-20 in Athens, Ga., and the men's championships are March 25-27 in Indianapolis.

Senior shares thoughts on tournament, career
Robertson's View
Ryan Robertson has played in all of the Jayhawks 120 wins during the past four years. The Jayhawks' next loss, though, will be the senior's final game for Kansas. Robertson sat down with the Kansan's Mike Harrity before leaving for New Orleans to talk about the Jayhawks' march to madness.
The weirdest thing about seeing the brackets was seeing a six by our name because I've been so used to having a one or a two. That was kind of the weirder thing, understanding about who plays who and what seed plays what.
There's nothing wrong with having "Cinderella" attached to our name. We're going to go in with the same mind set regardless of that. We're going to go out and play as if it's our last game, because it is. I want to just go out and play the best that this team can play. That way, I can live with myself.
The reas
why the
Arizona
loss and
t he
Rhode
Island
loss were so bad, and are so tough to live with is because we could have played better. We were better than those teams, and we lost. That's hard to live with.
What's not hard to live with, is if you go out there and give it everything you have. You play your very best and then get beat. Because you can't do any more than give your very best. And if that's not good enough, the National Championship will go to somebody else. And I can accept that. I really can.
What I can't accept this year, is for us to lose to a team that we're better than, like in the past two years. I want to get beat, if we get beat, by a team better than us. That sounds simple.
I don't want to name teams that I think we better than, or worse than, or whatever, because I think we can beat any team on any given day. But my main opinion is that I want to go out there and give it everything we have. And if we get beat, that's fine— as long as we give it everything we have.
4
Our main goal right now is to be playing our best basketball. And I think we are. We won the conference tournament. We won three games in a row against three very good teams. So I think we're playing our best basketball right now, and a big part of that is our defense. Our defense is probably the best it's all year. And during the tournament, that's very important.
I don't know much about Evansville. I know their coach played at Indiana for Bobby Knight. So they play very similar to that—they run off of a lot of screens, a lot of motion offense, man-to-man defense, stuff like that. Other than that, I don't know much. It'll be a good game.
I really haven't even thought about Kentucky. I know how the tournament is, and I know how good the teams are and I know that if any of our guys
are looking past Evansville we'll be home on Saturday.
1
Another part of the tournament is how your team not only deals with how big of a situation it is and how big the media attention is, but also how well
about
you handle the site that
you're at. And the fact that it's New Orleans adds a little bit more to our situation because of the Lester (Earl) connection, or because of Bourbon Street or because we're playing in the Superdome.
I would have rather gone to Milwaukee, to be honest, because I think there would have been less distractions. Milwaukee would have just been a normal city that we've played in a million times. Again. New Orleans has so many distractions and that's just one more thing for this team to deal with. That's not saying that we can't handle it. We're still going to go out and play.
I'm enjoying these last moments of my college career. One thing I won't do is be like, 'I wish I had done this, or I wish I had done that,' I really feel like I've given 100 percent. I really feel like I've savored all the moments, the fabulous times.
If my career would end right now, I would be happy and content with what
I've accomplished and what the teams I've been on have accomplished.

Men's golf team to try different lineup in classic
By Brd Hallier bhallier@kansan.com Kansan sportswriter
The men's golf team will have a slightly different look when it travels this weekend to Huntersville, N.C., to participate in the Birkdale Collegiate Golf Classic.
Senior Chris Thompson and juniors Jake Istnick and Ryan Vermeer will be the returnees for this weekend's Classic. They are among the three who played for the Jayhawks on Monday and Tuesday at the Louisiana Classics.
Playing this weekend along with Thompson, Vermeer and Istnick, are sophomore Andy Stewart and redshirt freshman Casey Harbour. Stewart played in the Classics but as an independent
Kansas coach Ross Randall said that
lineup was to give more players a fair shot at the No. 5 position.
"It also gives them a chance to play," he said. "I know who our top four are, so it gives these guys experience"
KU golf
these guys experiences of playing at the tournament level.
"I think it's the most accurate way to find out who No. 5 should be."
Thompson, Vermeer, junior Brad Davis and sophomore Conrad Roberts are the Jayhawks top four golfers.
Harbour said that he was excited to make the trip to North Carolina this weekend for his first tournament of the spring season.
"It a big deal to me," he said. "It gives me a chance to prove myself to Coach."
the tour, who had two top-25 finishes in the fall season in three tournaments, said that despite being among the many candidates for the No. 5 position, he won't feel any additional pressure this weekend.
"It's just another tournament to me," he said. "There will be the normal first-hole jitters, but I just want play as well as I can."
The field that the Jayhawks are going up against will be difficult, as the Classics field was. Six teams, including the Jayhawks, are ranked in the March 3 edition of the Mastercard Collegiate Golf Rankings. Nebraska is the highest ranked team at 16.
"There's a good field in the tournament, and it's a good opportunity for us," Randall said. "We didn't have a good tournament in Louisiana, but it was the first of the year. That could be my fault from not preparing them the right way, but it did get one tournament under our belt.
"I just glad that we are playing again real soon so we can get that first tournament out of our minds because it was definitely not a win for us." Randall said.

Kansas men's tennis duo reaches top-10 ranking
SCHOOL LANE

Kansan sportswriter

The No. 1 Kansas men's tennis doubles' team of Luis Uribe and Ed Dus continued to rise in the Intercollegiate Tennis Association rankings this week, moving to 10th.
The duo's steady climb in the rankings began in February when the two defeated the country's top-ranked team and reached the semi-finals at the Rolex Intercollegiate Indoors in Dallas.
"We have had some big wins," Uribe said. "This is a great accomplishment for Ed and I. It's a great feeling."
The team has experienced some bad luck since that victory, losing to unranked teams from Wichita State and Nebraska.
Dus said the difference in the team's play could be contributed to the difference between playing in a tournament match and a regular match. Tournament matches are three sets while regular-season matches are only one set played to eight points.
"We're best in two-out of three set matches because there is more time and we are more relaxed," he said.
"The regular dual matches are totally different. It's more like a sprint to the finish. We aren't necessarily going to wipe people off the board. If we are prepared and play consistent, we can win. In a regular match, there isn't as much time to do that."
Dus and Uribe have played
together for two semesters, rising from No. 39 to No.10 just this semester.
"Their games compliment each other, but they need to be more consistent if they are going to remain a top team," coach Mark Riley said. "No matter who they beat, there is always someone to beat the next day."
Despite the inconsistency, Uribe said that he and Dus played well together because the differences in their games made them a complete team.
"He's a very powerful player and comes up with great shots," Uribe said about Dus. "You never know what he's going to do. He's very tricky. I think I'm more steady. My
play is always the same. My game is smarter not powerful."
The tennis team moved up in the rankings as well, from No. 40 to No. 37, by beginning the season 6-1, but Dus said that playing well now did not mean they could get complacent.
"Even though we are No. 10, we have to start coming up in our regular matches," he said. "We learned our lesson a couple of times this season. We need to be more prepared, and that goes for the team as a whole. We're good enough to keep moving up in the rankings, but the main thing is that we have to consider ourselves the underdogs. If we take teams lightly, we're going to get in trouble."

Kansas serves Cyclones a shutout
By Amanda Kashube sports@kansan.com
Kansas sportwriter
The Kansas women's tennis team won its second consecutive conference match Wednesday when the Jayhawks crushed Iowa State 9-0.
Iowa State is the second opponent Kansas has shut out this season. The Jayhawks lead the all-time series 22-1
Brooke Chiller, Warrnambool,
Australia, junior; won at No.1
1 singles 6.2, 6.1, while Kris Sell remains
injured with an ankle injury.
Head coach Jenny Garrity said that Sell, Moorestown, N.J., senior, had been practicing this week with the team but that she was uncertain 15 Sell would play this weekend.
"She still doesn't have full mobility." Garrity said.
The Jayhawks will face Notre Dame at 1 p.m. tomorrow and will play Maryland at 10 a.m. Sunday at Alvamar Acquetball Club.
Despite the removal of Sell from the lineup, Garrity said she was proud of the recent accomplishments of her team.
Kansas will be looking for its first home win of the season.
"The last two wins have been great because everyone has played well," she said. "We were favored against
Women's Tennis
Texas Tech and Iowa State, and they did a good job of playing really aggressive tennis."
Kansas is 2-1 in Big 12 Conference blav and 3-6 overall.
Sell said she was also proud of the way her team has played.
"The freshmen have been playing awesome." she said.
Cheryl and Lisa Mallaiah, North Longwood, Fla., freshmen, and Christi Wagenaar, Westville, South Africa, freshman, have combined for 38 singles wins this season.
The team also received several honors earlier this week.
Sell was named Big 12 player of the week, despite not having played for two weeks. The decision was voted on two weeks ago, before Sell was injured.
"I wasn't surprised to see Kris's name on the list," Garrity said. "If the vote was based on play this week, I think Brooke (Chiller) would be it."
Chiller has won her last two conference matches at No. 1 singles and has posted a 11-13 record this season.
Sell is now the highest ranked player in the Big 12 and moved up three spots in the national rankings from No. 18 to No. 15, her highest ranking in her four-year career.
The duo has a 10-10 record and is the first doubles team to be ranked for Kansas this year.
The doubles team of Sell and Cheryl Mallaiah made its debut at No.33 this week.
Because of Sell's injury, Mallaiah now plays at No. 2 doubles with Wagenaar.
"They had some good wins at the beginning of the season," Garrity said. "I'm pleased that they got the credit they deserved."
Garrity said she hoped to see the team of Chiller and Julia Sidorova, Riga, Latvia, Junior, make the rankings soon. Chiller and Sidorova are 10-9 this season.
Despite the improvement of the singles and doubles players, the team fell six spots in the rankings to No.23.
"I'm not upset that we dropped. We've had some really good showings." Garrity said. "We just want to maintain a top-25 ranking."
The team has dropped four of the six matches to higher-ranked opponents and of the nine Big 12 schools ranked, the Jayhawks are second only to Texas, who is ranked No. 7.
"We can't worry about playing a higher-ranked team," Garrity said. "We just need to go out and execute on our home court."

'Hawks have tough opponents in first round tournament play
Well the greatest sporting event of the year is under way. The NCAA Tournament is by far the best sporting event at any level of sports. Bands, spirit squads, groups of fans and 64 teams all converge on various
Commentary
Tonight when the Jayhawks tip off, you will get to see some of the ugliest uniforms in college basketball. I'm talking about the Evansville uniforms. The jerseys are T-shirts. Although they may look like an AAU summer team, these guys can play some ball. Don't expect the blowout, easy win in the first round that Kansas fans are used to. We will have to play a good, hard game to escape with a victory and have a chance for a rematch with Kentucky.
10
I picked Kansas to lose to Kentucky in the second round this year. Don't get me wrong, I truly believe that we can and
will beat Kentucky, and my pick will help ensure the win. The last several years, I have always picked Kansas to win it all, and you know what has happened. So after last year's loss to Rhode Island, I decided to pick Kansas to lose in the second round no matter whom the Jayhawks played, in hopes that they then will do the opposite.
I wouldn't be surprised if this Kansas team made it to the Final Four. It doesn't have any of the pressure that the previous teams had, and it will be able to play loose, carefree basketball. I look for good things from the Javahwks this year.
Although there is no pressure on Kansas to win it all this year, there seems to be a lot of pressure created by this whole Lester Earl fiasco.
I am 100 percent certain that neither Roy nor any member of his coaching staff improperly recruited Earl or any other player. Roy is far above that. He doesn't need to cheat to get good recruits. He gets them because he is a good coach and, more importantly, a good man.
Did anyone have a chance to catch the K-State NIT (Not Invited Tournament) game Wednesday night? If you did, you got to see just how pathetic K-State fans really are. Bram-
lage Coliseum was half empty for a nationally televised post-season game. I heard the only reason anyone was there was because Michael Bishop and Frank "BMW" Murphy were signing autographs during halftime. I hope I never live to see the day that Kansas fans act like that.
I've heard from K-State fans, "Well you have basketball, and we have football." Well, I agree with part of that, we definitely have basketball. The creator of the game was our first coach, we have four national championships, numerous conference championships, six conference tournament championships and numerous NCAA tournament appearances including 10 in a row. We have one of the all-time best basketball programs in the nation. So yes, we have basketball here at Kansas.
K-State, however, does not really have football. Yeah, the Wildcats have been decent in this decade, but for the two previous decades they were the worst in the nation. They don't have any national championships or conference titles in the last several decades. Great program, K-State.

New wrestling club reaching goals
Seven grapplers competing at nationals

T two years ago the wrestling club did not exist. Last year, three of the squad's members competed at the national tournament.And
this year all seven of the members who went to the regional tournament qualified for the national tournament.
"We're expanding and that was our goal in the beginning, to take as many to nationals as possible," said co-president Joe Wetter, Marvsville senior.
Based on the team's performance in the regional competition in late February, it appears Wetter has reached his goal.
The team left yesterday morning for Dallas for this weekend's national competition and took with it a desire to win, but mostly to have fun.
o have fun.
"Winning is fun — If I didn't win it wouldn't be as much fun, but it's a much more relaxed atmosphere," said Francisco Chacon. Liberal sophomore. "There's no pressure to win and no pressure to cut weight."
Several of the team's 15 members said that they had wrestled in high school and that being in the wrestling club was not as stressful and strictly regulated as other highly competitive events.
One of the differences between high school and collegiate varsity is that the weight classes are flexible.
POTTERY BUST
Wichita sophomore, said, "Weight classes can make wrestling horrible. Here we can have fun and do our best and then go out and have a big steak after the match."
Despite the relaxed nature, club members take wrestling matches very seriously. Sean Bates, co-president and Newton

wrestlers warm up before the wrestling starts.
"We have to take it serious because one of the biggest problems in tournaments is people are out of shape and their timing is off." Wetter said. "So we get a good sweat going, then go get a drink and get into wrestling."
The sched
practices on Tuesday and Thursday nights from 9:30 to 11 p.m., but Tra said that several members did a lot of conditioning on their own as well.
Wetter said that being in "wrestling" shape was completely different from being in general shape.
"The only way to get in shape for wrestling is by wrestling." Wetter said.
A few members of the team were recruited to wrestle at the collegiate level but decided to attend the University for educational purposes.
One of those was Chacon, who wants to go to medical school. But he said when he learned there was a wrestling club at the University, it was a dream come true.
For the officers and core members of the young club, qualifying seven wrestlers for nationals was also a dream come true.

Allergies spark smoke-free policy
Each building on campus to have at least one non-smoking entrance
By Chris Hopkins and Kristi Reimer

(USPS 650-640)
Students, faculty and staff who want to avoid cigarette smoke will soon be able to enter any building at the University of Kansas through a designated smoke-free doorway.
People who are used to smoking outside those entrances will have to find somewhere else.
Wescoe Hall, Dole Human Development Center and Fraser Hall already have non-smoking entrances after a student who is severely allergic to cigarette smoke approached the University with her problem.
"If I get some in my lungs, my lungs tighten up," said Crystin Burd, Kansas City, Mo., junior. "I have to try to relax and get some air in. It tends to take away your concentration and wear you out if you're fighting to breathe."
But those entrances were getting harder to find, she said. So she approached Services for Students with Disabilities for help.
Burd said she scheduled her classes early in the day, tried to avoid smokers and walked around buildings to find the least-smoky entrances.
That organization contacted the Office of the Provost, which agreed to make temporary accommodations for Burd and asked the Senate Executive Committee to discuss the matter.
I will be there. I'll be here. I'll be t
In the meantime, temporary signs at the southeast entrance of Fraser Hall, the east entrance of Wescoe Hall's third floor and Dole Center's main entrance read, "Smoke-free entrance, no smoking within 30 feet of this doorway."
SenEx approved a recommendation Feb. 9 to make at least one entrance at each building, preferably handicapped-accessible, smokefree.
Shuttic said the permanent signs would be in place by fall 1999, but the committee still had to solve some problems, such as choosing the entrances, incorporating new signs and establishing how far smokers must be from the doorways.
Mike Shuttic, associate director of Services for Students with Disabilities, is on a committee that will study the situation.
Thirty feet might not be far enough for buildings with an overhang that traps the smoke, such as Wescoe Hall, he said.
Smokers, like this student, who take cigarette breaks near building entrances, may be required to find somewhere else to smoke soon.

"Fifty feet should cover the vast majority of those," Shuttic said.

Group pursuing alternative rec center plans

nmusia staff writer
Even though the recreation task force collected 1,000 student signatures last week to put the proposal for a $15.5 million campus recreation center to a student-body referendum, some Delta Force members want to explore other alternatives.
In April, students will vote on the construction of a free-standing fitness and recreation center solely for student recreational use, open at least 18 hours a day.
The center would include four multi-purpose gymnasium courts, a cardiovascular fitness and weight training center, an aerobic and dance studio, suspended walking and jogging track, combative arts room, activities lounge and student service center
Student fees would increase $15 per semester in fall 2000, and $34 per semester in fall 2001, when the center would open.
Seth Hoffman, Nunemaker senator, said that the task force had not told students about the proposal and that many students' opinions were not being heard. He also said that the task force did not tell students whether Robinson Center would be available if a new recreation center was built.
Scott Kaiser, student body vice president and vice chairman of the task force, said that the task force conducted extensive research and outlined specifics about the proposal in
its petition. Hoffman and Erin Simpson, student legislature awareness board research coordinator, delivered a formal request to Kevin Yoder, student body president and task force chairman, to inspect the task force's official documents last Friday.
"Before asking students to tack on $400 to a four-year education, I'd like to hear a more in-depth view," Hoffman said.
He said that he and other Delta Force members would review the task force's materials and create a different proposal.
posal was not needed to solve the main problems with Robinson Center, such as its limited hours, lack of weight room space and small number of basketball courts.
In the task force's survey, 42.3 percent of students surveyed said they never went to Robinson Center, and 19 percent said they went less than once a week.
"They're calling the fire department to put out a match." Hoffman said.
members of the task force will answer questions this week about the proposal at town hall meetings at residence halls and tables set up around campus. Today through Thursday, there will be a table from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. on the fourth floor of the Kansas Union.

Ellsworth fire forces evacuation
By Katia Burford
kburford@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
A fire in the north wing on the fourth floor of Ellsworth Hall left residents standing in the cold for more than an hour Saturday night.
The fire, which began in room 426, was reported at 11:01 p.m., said Sgt. James Anuiano of the KU Public Safety Office.
No one was injured in the fire, which was thought to have been started by either an alarm clock or a burning candle, said Anguiano.
Ellsworth resident Katie Post, Overland Park freshman, said that she and her boyfriend were not in a hurry to leave her room because they assumed a false allege.
"But when we got outside we saw fire rolling off windows," she said.
An Ellsworth resident assistant was the first to find the fire and pull the alarm, Anquiano said.
Firefighters put out the fire with extinguishers. Fans also were needed to ventilate the building before residents could return to their rooms, said Brian Lawrence, a battalion chief with the Douglas County Fire and Medical Department
Lawrence said that officials didn't have a damage estimate yet.
The student who lived in the room, which was declared uninhabitable, was not at home when the fire started.
Lawrence said that three fire engines, three medical units and one ladder truck responded to the call.
He said that there was more manpower than usual on hand for the call because of the concern that some residents might suffer from smoke inhalation.
He said he was not sure whether any students were treated at the scene for smoke inhalation, but nobody was transferred to the hospital and no injuries were reported.
Anguiano said that the building was evacuated relatively quickly. He emphasized that this was an example of why it was important for residents to take all fire alarms seriously.
Post said that, although there had been two false alarms this semester that she could recall, she would get out faster next time.
"I didn't think it would ever happen," she said.

As Kentucky exchanged hugs
The silence was more powerful than any words could have been when the final seconds of the Kansas-Kentucky basketball game concluded in a 92-88 Kentucky overtime victory.
The Kansas run at the end of regulation had caused screams, hugs and high fives, but the celebration ended when Kentucky's Scott Padgett hit a three-point shot and sent the game into overtime.
"What more could we have asked for from our guys?" asked Lupie Ramirez, Kanopolis sophomore. "Robertson had a career-high point total, and the young guys played their hearts out. There isn't as much disappointment as last year when we should have won. They played a great game."
and smug grenny angry Kansas fans glared at their电视 sets.
The fans could not dispute that Kansas had played well and made a good showing against a veteran team.
While fans cursed at Kentucky players as they watched them celebrate, Kirsten Drickey, Lindsborg sophomore, said she didn't think Kentucky played as well as all the sports announcers said it could.
Many attributed the difference
"The two guys with the most heart didn't even get to play in overtime," said Kelvie Fitzgerrel, Copeland sophomore. "That hurt us."

KU contingent witnesses new nations join NATO
Albright: Officially welcomed new countries into NATO

Kansan staff writer
INDEPENDENCE, Mo. — Czech Republic, Hungary and Poland officially joined NATO on Friday at the Harry S. Truman Presidential Library, bringing a new sense of security and belonging for the three Eastern European countries.
ical figures.
"You are truly allies. You are truly home." Albright said in her address. "We must never forget the destinies of Europe and North America are inseparable. No force on earth is more powerful than our solidarity."
Secretary of State Madeline Albright and foreign ministers from each of the joining countries spoke to a crowd of about 300 international and local polit-
Albright accepted instruments of accession to the North Atlantic Treaty, which was originally signed on April 4, 1949. from the three countries.
A van full of KU students and faculty members made the trip to Independence to watch the historical event.
Anna Cienciala, professor of history.
said that watching the ceremony brought her to tears.
"I cried bucketfuls," she said.
Tweedie was born in Poland and as a child witnessed the German invasion of her country in 1839. Her family fled to France, Spain, Portugal and finally to England, where she went to school.
For Cienciaal, who teaches Eastern European history and The Rise and Fall of Communist Nations, the ceremony was very meaningful.
"Looking at everyone speak, I said to myself, 'How wonderful.' I never would have imagined this 10 years ago.
When I think of it all, it's quite amazing," she said.
Jan Kavan, minister of foreign affairs for Czech Republic, said that the ceremony taking place in Independence was significant for another reason.
The selection of the Harry S. Truman Presidential Library as the site for the event was significant because President Truman was one of the chief architects of the alliance.
Kavan said that the last time he had visited the Kansas City area was in 1968. While in town, he received word that Russian tanks had swept into
Prague, marking the start of Russian occupation in Czechoslovakia.
"The powerless anger that struck me was unbelievable," he said. "It's symbolic that we accept a guarantee that my country will never again become a victim to a powerless invasion."
robert Choromanski, Lenexa junior, watched the ceremony on television in a room at the Truman Library with the rest of the KU contingent.

KU student robbed by men with knife, emerges unhurt
A KU student was robbed by two men with a knife at 1.1 p.m. Thursday in the 1200 block of Mississippi Street, said Sgt. Troy Mailman of the KU Public Safety Office.
The student was walking home when two men wearing black skis masks walked up to him and told the student to give them his wallet, Mailen said.
The men, who had a knife with a five-to six-inch blade, took $20 in cash from the wallet and gave it back to him.
"The victim quoted them as saying, "Sorry
we had to do this to you."" Milton said.
we had to do this to you," Malen said. Both men were described as being in their 20s. The student described one suspect as six feet tall, between 180 and 200 pounds and wearing camouflage pants with military-style boots. The other was described as five-foot-eight and wearing dark clothing.
The student was not injured in the robbery.
Mailen said that anyone with information about the crime should call the KU Pubic Safety Office at 864-5900 or KU Crime Stoppers at 864-8888.
KU student heads to court on eavesdropping charges
Shawn Michael Mikulich, a 25-year-old KU student who was charged with eavesdropping and criminal damage to property, will appear in court at 1:30 p.m. March 25, said Marlon Williams, a lawyer in the Douglas County District Attorney's office.
A neighbor of Mikulich's called police after she discovered three holes drilled in her bathroom wall, which adjoins Mikulich's residence in the 1100 block of Louisiana Street, a Lawrence Police report said.
The holes were drilled sometime between Oct. 10, 1998, and Nov. 10, 1998.
Students harassed; car damaged following run-in
Three KU student were stopped about 12:45 a.m. Friday at 18th and Indiana streets when their car was rear-ended by a black car that had been tailgating them.
Four men got out of the car, threw beer bottles at the students and then hit one of the students in the face with his fist, said Sgt. George Wheeler of the Lawrence Police department.
The students ran away from the men, leaving their car behind. When the students later returned, the windshield and a rear panel window were broken. Damage to the car was estimated at $700.
Police could not locate the men, who were described as being four white males of average height and build driving a black Volkswagen or Honda.

Government says stolen technoloay helped China
WASHINGTON — The Clinton administration conceded yesterday that the Chinese gained from technology allegedly stolen from a federal nuclear weapons lab but insisted the government has responded decisively. Republicans disagreed and pressed for a comprehensive review of U.S. policy toward China.
The administration, represented by Energy Secretary Bill Richardson and the president's national security adviser, Sandy Berger, said the Chinese did benefit from the leak of information in the 1980s from the Los Alamos laboratory in New Mexico.
But, Berger said, "I think we moved swiftly, and I think we continue to impose on China the strictest controls."
Richardson said the administration had doubled the security budget for the national labs, initiated strong background checks for scientists visiting the labs from sensitive countries, and subjected employees to polygraphs.
Republicans, seizing on the Los Alamos case, contend anew that Clinton's policy seriously has been tainted by alleged illegal campaign contributions and the transfer of satellite technology that may have been used by the Chinese military.
Government: U.S. prison population growing fast
WASHINGTON — The number of American adults imprisoned has more than doubled during the past 1.2 years, reaching its highest level ever last year, the Justice Department said yesterday. The United States soon may surpass Russia as the country with the highest rate of incarceration.
At mid-1998, jails and prisons held an estimated 1.8 million people, according to a Bureau of Justice Statistics report. At the end of 1985, the figure was 744,208.
In Russia, 685 people out of every 100,000 are behind bars, according to The Sentencing Project, a U.S. group critical of the general trend toward harasser sentencing of American criminals.
A planned amnesty of 100,000 prisoners in Russia and the expectation of continued increases in the U.S. inmate population means the United States probably will become the world's leading jailer "in a year or two," said Jenni Gainsborough, a Sentencing Project spokeswoman.
ate a coalition government in the strife- weary nation, offering the hope of peace after two decades of fighting.
The number of people imprisoned in the United States has grown for more than a quarter century, helped by increased drug prosecutions and a general get-tough policy on all classes of offenders.

Yesterday's announcement was greeted with caution in the Afghan capital of Kabul, where people have prayed for an end to a war that has claimed as many as a million lives and has touched virtually everyone in the country.
"People in Afghanistan are thirsty for peace like a man in the desert is thirsty for water ... but we don't know," said a Kahul shookeeper. Mongo Gui.
The U.N. brokered talks involved the Taliban Islamic movement, which rules about 90 percent of the country, and the northern-based alliance of opposition groups, which controls the remaining 10 percent.
Both sides met for four days in Ashagab, the capital of Turkmenistan, which shares a border with Afghanistan. The U.N. Special Mission to Afghanistan said in a statement that the talks had taken place "in a spirit of solidarity, mutual respect and diplomacy."
At a news conference after the Ashgabat talks, representatives from both sides described the agreement as a breakthrough.
Serbs shell, burn village after Albanian slayings
MUJALIC, Yugoslavia — Chared houses smoldered yesterday in this tiny farming village, which Serb forces shelled, looted and nearly burned to the ground in apparent retribution for the Albanian rebel slaying of two Serb brothers.
At the heart of Kosovo's war lies a fierce ethnic hatred often played out in a cycle of revenge — most recently with village attacks and deadly bombings Saturday of two town markets in this northern region.
The U.S.-backed plan to be discussed Monday envisions autonomy for the province, enforced by NATO-led peacekeepers. But on the eve of the Paris meeting, residents and observers questioned whether the two sides can ever live together again after all that they've done to each other.
A chief concern of U.S. and European leaders is that Serb civilians will flee Kosovo if the autonomy deal is reached, fearing discrimination and oppression by ethnic Albanians whose leaders would govem the province.
That would leave Kosovo "ethnically cleansed," a potential embarrassment for world powers struggling to keep the mixed population of 2 million intact, with its majority Albanians and minority Serbs. Turks and Egyptians.
Serbis living near the burned villages — Mijalic and Dvare — blamed the violence on the U.S. push for a peace settlement, expressing rage at the possibility that NATO forces would enter the country. The deployment of peacekeepers has been Yugoslav President Slobodan Milosevic's main objection to signing the deal.

icy. She said she wanted people to understand that it would affect only one entrance per building.
"You have the right to do what you want as long as you're not hurting someone else," she said. "We just want to share."
Smokers outside of Wescoe Terrace weren't bothered by the new policy.
"I know I'm killing myself; I'm not trying to kill anyone else," said Greg Geckles, Olathe senior. "It's OK as long as they don't bother me outside of that 50 feet and as long as they don't close this whole area, because that means we have to smoke in the rain."
Geckles questioned how the policy would be enforced.
"Are they going to have a hall monitor out here to hand out tickets?" he asked.
Snuttic said the committee hadn't determined how the policy would be enforced. Jeannette Johnson, assistant to the provost, said most people willingly complied with other University no-smoking policies.
Another issue that remains unresolved is placement of ashtrays. SenEx said in its recommendation that ashtrays should remain near smoke-free entrances so that cigarettes wouldn't be extinguished on the ground.
But Burd said ashtrays should be removed from those areas. As of yesterday, none of the three entrances had an ashtray farther than 17 feet away. The entrances at Fraser Hall and Dole Center had ashtrays within eight feet.
"In my opinion, wherever ashtrays are placed, it means that the University condones smoking in this area," she said.

emotional for him and his father, who was a member of the Polish underground Solidarity Trade Union in the 1980s.
Choromanski, who came to the United States three days before martial law was declared in Poland in 1981, said that the turmoil that had plunged Poland since World War II was symbolic.
"It showed the common man was striving to be free," said Choromanski. "Our generation hasn't had the problems that they have had. We've always enjoyed the rights the Polish have recently received."
After the ceremony, Choromanski and his father were invited to a luncheon that Albright and several other international dignitaries attended.
Throughout the lunch, Choromanski said he spoke briefly with political figures such as the mayor of Independence, a U.S. senator and the U.S. ambassador to Poland, Daniel Fried.
Choromanski said that plenty of toasts were given to the newly inducted NATO nations and that he cheerfully partook.
"This is a revelation that everyone is free," he said.

Midterms can take toll on students
By Ezra Sykes
asyks@kansan.edu
Kansas staff writer
Midterm season has arrived once again, bringing a downpour of essays, bubble-test sheets and No.2 pencils into the lives of students and faculty.
For many students, preparing for numerous tests within a short span of time can be overwhelming.
Kimberly Gencur, Lenene senior, and Michael Margherio, St. Louis senior, met yesterday afternoon at the Kansas Union to study for a test in their Philosophy of Sex and Love class.
"When it rains, it pours," she said. "I've felt that I've been able to handle midterms before, but this time around it's a little more rough."
Gencur, who is taking 22 credit hours this semester, had three midterms last week, each of which she studied for about 15 hours.
Gencur thought having exams together at the halfway point of the semester had its ups and downs.
"It's not really awkward, but I think that it'unfortunate that you have to try and cram everything in," she said. "I try to study and prepare during the semester, but there's still always crammed."
"If the tests were spread out, people wouldn't buckle down and study, though." Gencur said.
Francie Harwell, Covington, Ga., sophomore, took a German 108 midterm, a Calculus test and wrote a
five page book next week.
"I didn't get much rest," she said, explaining how keeping busy was the only way she could deal with the stress of midterms.
five-page paper last week.
Harwell said that last year she had few classes with midterms so it wasn't much of a problem. Things have changed.
"Now I dread it," she said. "I don't understand why all the tests have to be at the same time."
Brenda Selman, associate registrar, said that the University did not require professors to hold midterm examinations between certain days of the semester.
"It seems like a lot of people have certainly mentioned stress of midterms as something they're dealing with," he said.
Don Wade, staff psychologist at Counseling & Psychological Services, said that although few students came in to deal with their midterm stress specifically, the test season made other problems more difficult to handle.
Although the stress of midterms could be overwhelming, some students said that the relief of being finished was enjoyable.
To celebrate the end of his seven midterms, Margherio said that he was going to the boats in Kansas City to gamble.

Education reorganization sparks debate
Legislators, citizens discuss issues at Chamber of Commerce forum
By Heather Woodward hwoodward@kanson.com Kanson staff writer
State legislators sat down to a breakfast of scrambled eggs and toast Saturday morning as they prepared to address Lawrence residents.
Seniors from Lawrence High School attended the forum for their Advanced Placement Politics class.
Sen, Sandy Praeger and Reps. Tom Sloan, Troy Findley and Ralph Tanner spoke for an hour at the Holiday Inn, 200 McDonald Dr., as part of the second and last "Eggs and Issues" forum sponsored by the Lawrence Chamber of
Commerce, Southwestern Bell and the Lawrence Journal-World. Audience members raised questions about issues ranging from a statewide transportation improvement bill to a bill that would reorganize higher education.
Praeger, R-Lawrence, said she thought the House should proceed very cautiously in the reorganization of higher education.
A statewide transportation improvement bill was also a topic that the audience asked about. Gov. Bill Graves introduced a transportation plan in January, which has sparked a flurry of changes to the plan in both the House
"I think the higher education reconstruction issue needs to be focused on," said Maggie Beetles, Lawrence High School senior. "I hope our presence will

"There are a lot of different perspectives on the state of transportation in the legislature," Findley said. "The House plan is unrealistic because of the level of bonding it requires."
and the Senate. Part of the plan included modifications to U.S. Highway 59. U.S. 59, which is Iowa Street in Lawrence, runs south through Baldwin City to Ottawa, where it connects with Interstate 35. The plan would expand the two lane road into a four lane highway.
Findley, DLawrence, said he was not in favor of the recently passed House transportation plan.
Sloan, R.Lawrence, said he voted against the House transportation plan. However, he said whatever plan is passed by the Senate would improve U.S.Highway 59.

Yoder's veto of fee hike reflects sound judgment for students' sake
Recently, and for the first time during his administration, Kevin Yoder decided to veto a bill that he thought was incorrectly passed by the Student Senate. Yoder vetowed the bill to increase the Equal Opportunity Fund fee by $2, and Senate failed to override his veto at the last meeting.
The veto occurred for a number of reasons. Most important, this fee was mandated to the University by the Board of Regents. A number of years ago, when the University asked the board for money, the board handed down a mandate that this fee be added to student fees.
Because this fee was not asked for, requested by or even wanted by the students, Yoder decided to veto the bill. Additionally, because it was a
The president's killing of a $2 increase shows that Senate's preparation was hasty.
Regents-mandated fee, the Fee Review Subcommittee, which reviews fees and then recommends if they should be raised, lowered or remain unchanged, has no authority to suggest a raise of the fee. Only the board itself can take that action.
Equally important, the fee is not used in the fashion that it was designed. Originally, the money that was generated by the fee was supposed to go directly to the students it was designed to help. However, in the years since its inception, money
generated by the fee has gone toward such things as employee salaries and administrative costs. These things should have been taken into consideration by the Fee Review Subcommittee. Proper research was not conducted into the fee and its uses, nor into where the new money from the increase would go. If it went to more employee salaries, then it would be an inappropriate expenditure.
By bringing these points and others to light, Yoder did the correct thing in vetting this bill. It was not Senate's place to increase the fee, nor was the recommendation for the fee appropriate in the first place. By not overriding the veto, it is obvious that the Senate agrees.

Parking issue needs residents' input
The parking situation in the Alumni Place lots isn't going to get any better.
The lots, which serve residents of the University's nine scholarship halls, are crowded already. The addition of a women's hall north of Amini Scholarship Hall on Louisiana Street in fall 2000 will make the situation worse.
The Parking Department already has oversold the lots by 28 spaces. Residents find it extremely difficult to find spaces late at night or early in the morning, forcing them to park on Ohio and Tennessee streets.
Not only is parking far away at night an inconvenience for those who pay $75 for a space, it is a safety issue, especially for those living farthest away at Miller and Watkins scholarship halls.
Residents with seniority ought to be given first priority for limited permits.
When the Parking Department oversells spaces to students living off campus, it is unlikely that all those students will be on campus at the same time. Because the scholarship halls are residences, it is very likely that all students will be parking at the same time.
task force is looking into what residents in 1999 want. David Freeman, Hutchinson senior, wants to survey the scholarship hall residents to determine what their preference is.
In 1995, the Parking Department offered to restrict the number of permits sold. The All Scholarship Hall Council was opposed to the action.
One way to accomplish this would be to grant those with seniority the first opportunity to buy permits for a limited number of spaces.
If residents choose to restrict the number of permits sold, the board thinks that the restrictions should be methodical rather than random.
A Battenfeld Scholarship Hall resident in charge of the council's parking
Because the University has no immediate plans as to how it will handle the overflow from the new women's hall, it is important that Freeman and other residents begin looking into ways they can alleviate the situation themselves.

Classroom cooperation key to higher learning
Perspective
At least that's what I thought as I perused full-color brochures from the University of
Kansas and other colleges my senior year of high school. Here, I thought, were places where professors and students worked together in the search for academic enlightenment.
classes at the university level are supposed to be fun and enlightening.
Clay McCuistion
 opinion@kansan.com
I thought wrong.
Many classes at the University are battlegrounds. Professors and students have an adversarial relationship, as if hatred and dissension were integral parts of the learning process.
From the student's viewpoint, teachers are the evil oppressors. The invading forces prey on peace of mind and consume leisure time. It's almost as if the evil professor sits on one's shoulder constantly, saying: "Shouldn't you be studying now instead drinking that 100 beer?"
But surely all students have felt persecuted in a class — as if the instructor deliberately set out to fail them. Surely, professors have taught classes where they felt the students deliberately resisted instruction.
Every class isn't like this.
The ultimate act of aggression is the test.
This sounds far-fetched, I realize. But why do students groan when a surprise test is handed out in class? That collective "ugh" rising from the seats in a lecture hall is not a sound of joy. It's a sound that is best translated: "Why does the teacher hate me?"
The test is the invasion force, the unannounced landing. Students have two ways to respond to the aggression — by defending themselves, or by going on the offense.
When they defend themselves, students try to do the bare minimum. They want to avoid death or severe injury, but they don't mind a few scratches. A book might be scanned before class. Cs and Ds are "defense" grades, not very good scores, but passing.
Going on the offense involves study. The invading force will not only be subdued, but it will be pounded, pummede and crushed into submission. Students decide to face the aggression of the
test with aggression of their own. As and Bs are the offense grades, good scores, but harder to get
The concept of classes as battle is reflected in everyday speech. Consider these four common phrases:
"I fought hard for that grade."
"That test killed me."
"I bombed that test."
That test killed me.
"@ ★ ★ that touched!"
Students perceive instructors as brutal and violent. Grades — supposedly an objective measure of class work's quality — become a cause for pitched battles. Tests main and slaughter their takers.
All of these words are meant figuratively, of course. Speech has considerable power, however. If students use these terms daily or weekly about their classes, something is wrong. Universities apparently aren't giving pupils a positive experience.
In the days of high school, this animosity between the teachers and the learners made sense. The law or stern parents decreed that students had to attend. If teens rebelled, they had a reason: They wanted to make it perfectly clear they hated classes, teachers and anything connected to school.
No one forces students to attend college. Sure, parents can force their offspring to move to a town containing a university, but actually attending classes is voluntary. Mom doesn't have to call the school office and tell secretaries her child is sick.
In a college setting, the irritations and tribulations of the high school existence don't apply. Self-motivation and self-will become factors. Life is no longer easily mapped out.
Why persist, then, in treating classes at the university level like high school wood shop?
The role of education should not be combative. Teachers should not be oppressors. Students should not be the oppressed.
Learning at its best is cooperative. It's collaboration between minds. Reducing that collaboration to trench warfare harms both teacher and student. Real knowledge, well-learned, is too precious a thing to thoughtlessly discard.
An instructor must instruct for the benefit of students—not for his or her own smug ego.
A student must learn for the benefit of his mind not for a grade

Without such a breakthrough into the darker, controversial side of
PETER KNABER
Kubrick anticipated a new cinema for a new time. In Dr. Strangelove, he used war and violence not as symbols of extreme pain or emotion, but as a standard human characteristic. We saw the destruction of mankind as a result of human error. Kubrick observed humans and the unspoken rules by which they act and react, and he dared to draw a caricature.
Kubrick's next film, 2001, served as a social commentary from the heavens. With a skilled eye, Kubrick saw the line between what the country wanted to see for entertainment and what might be too self-analytical for moviegoers to handle. He often danced around the line to serve a helping of criticism on a silver platter.
Although some called Kubrick stubborn, he opened many doors for self-expression. He never allowed his work to be distorted for popularity or monetary gain.
movies, we'd still be watching pictures produced by the five mega-studios starring stable sets of actors, bound by lifetime contracts — in other words, movies about dancing and patriotic war films in which the mighty United States always wins.
Kubrick is partly responsible for broadening directors' artistic control. As he independently
Today, however, it seems as if a majority of the movies have reverted back into the age of the blockbuster. Instead of Fred Astraire or John Wayne, we have dinosaurs and Will Smith.
That is all the more reason to mourn the loss of Stanley Kubrick — in the hope that his magnificent brand of truth-telling and filmmaking wasn't just an interlude between box office hits.
Oakson is an Overland Park senior in English.
directed, wrote and produced his films, he opened doors for other directors to create films beyond the ruling hand of studios and distributors.
His films were popular and widely acclaimed. The era served as a catalyst for the world to willingly hear the statements Kubrick wanted to make.
Knutrick discussed western taboos, often making adaptations of controversial novels. The people of the '60s and '70s responded to his realism and flocked to his movies.
A master director and a pioneer of independent vision, Kubrick brought us more than special effects and sex. Many have mimicked him and lusted to attain his bravery and intensity. Some say that Quentin Tarantino transparently has borrowed aspects of *The Killing*, Kubrick's third film.
Boschee cartoon tarnishes Kansan
Feedback
In Lolita, one notices the sensuality that Kubrick used to deal with the story of an older man obsessed with his nymphet stepdaughter. Without showing the young actress naked, Kubrick used her character's sexuality to its full extent — so much that it seems dirty. And, with Vladimir Nabakov writing the script from his own novel, Kubrick maintained the story's characters, plot and humor, and added his own non-sentimental sharp-edged vision.
Humor was one of his strongest connections with audiences. We find ourselves laughing at a drill sergeant's slurs in Full Metal Jacket and are humored by the world of Alex and his band of punks in A Clockwork Orange. Yet these films are not comedies. Kubrick used our own hopelessly human emotions and tendencies to show the most extreme consequences of coveting control.

the awards that the Kansan has won, and I can see why. You guys put together a great newspaper.
But when I see something like this, I had to turn it over to see if this paper was from KU or MU. Please use better judgment in the future when running these editorial cartoons.

Rock Chalk honors best performers, skits
By Jamie Knodel

The lights have been turned off, the sequins taken off and awards have been given to this year's outstanding Rock Chalk Revue performances.
Saturday, at the conclusion of the 50th anniversary of the revue, the Alpha Chi Omega sorority and Sigma Phi Epsilon fraternity skit, "Swingin' to Victory," walked away with the most awards.
The performance, which was set on a World War II army base and featured swing dancing, won five awards including, best show.
"We put so much work into it," said Julie Gorman, director and Lenexa junior. "It is gratifying because none of the directors had any previous musical or theatrical experience."
In addition to the overall best show award, "Swingin' to Victory," was also honored for best original song and best production number. The performance also won a new award: best interpretation of theme.
Alex Locke, Rock Chalk Revue executive director said that this year's Revue theme, "Wonders Never Cease," was named in honor
of the revue's creator, Roy Wonder.
Danner Evans, Wichita junior and Kappa Kappa Gamma sorority member, was named best actress for the second consecutive year.
Hunter Williams, Sigma Phi Epsilon fraternity member, won best actor for his role as an airplane mechanic.
Supporting role awards went to Cate Pugh, Alpha Delta Pi sorority member and Scott Newcomer, Delta Chi fraternity member.
Kappa Kappa Gamma and Beta Theta Pi's show received awards for best costumes and best use of set.
Community service was also highlighted at Saturday night's performance. Katie Robinson, Kappa Alpha Theta sorority member, was named the most charitable individual for participating in 330 hours of community service. Drew Thompson, Beta Theta Pi fraternity member, was runner-up with 160 hours.
Maggie Wilson, community service coordinator for the revue, said that this year, 35,300 total service hours had been donated.
Rock Chalk Revue organizers presented the Douglas County United Way with a $40,000 check from the show's proceeds.

Beginning playwrights take part in 'Final Four'
By Ezra Sykes
esykes@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
People spontaneously combusted this weekend at Room 100 in Smith Hall, and no one had to clean up the guts.
Friday night, about 65 audience members utilized their imagination to help envision Jan Chapman's one-act play "A Bomb in Gilead." The script calls for people to burst, leaving messy remains scattered about.
Chapman's piece was one of four one-act plays that premiered this weekend for the English Alternative Theatre's "Final Four."
Two plays were presented Friday and Saturday night at Smith Hall. Last night, the two winning plays, which were selected by audience ballot, were again performed.
Director Paul Lim selected the plays from a batch of 35, all written in last semester's beginning play-writing class.
Lim, who came to the University 10 years ago to develop its playwriting program, said that it was important to the creative process for the students to see their plays performed.
"It became evident that unlike the short story or the poem, beginning playwriters need to be able to see people moving around and saying their words," he said.
And to a certain degree, that's about all the audience sees, too.
The plays are presented after only three rehearsals. Actors read their lines straight from the script on stage. And scenery usually consists of only some basic furniture and a few changes in the lighting.
But the audience didn't seem to mind.
"Sometimes it is hard to tell what will work and what won't," Lim said, explaining that the minimal nature of the productions made some plays less feasible.
"A full production would have
been nice, but this allows the English department to put on a play that they didn't have the budget to do," said Toby Stoner. Lawrence resident.
Adam Miller, whose play "Kaleidoscopic" was presented on Friday, said that he was satisfied with the interpretation of his play.
"I was always proud of it on paper, and now I'm proud to see it come to life," he said. "The actors did really well."
Miller's play took the audience into a men's clothing store late at night, where three men discussed everything from a suicidal artist to the artist formerly known as Prince while pricing clothes and dressing mannequins.
Miller said he thought the "Final Four" provided a great opportunity for young playwrights, but he didn't like the competition side to the program.
Lim said he didn't think putting plays up against one another was harmful.
"I've been criticized in the past. Some have said that by promoting competition it hurts the learning process," Lim said after Friday's presentation.
Chris Nelson, Lawrence sophomore, filled out the comment sheet and ballot with the rest of the audience Friday night, knowing that his play would be evaluated the next evening.
"It's interesting to see how people interpret the things I write," Nelson said.
During the Friday night presentation of the "Final Four," Lim told the audience the final score of the KU first-round battle with Evansville in the NCAA basketball tournament.
Lim explained his reason for naming the English Alternative Theatre's production "Final Four," a popular term in the sports world.
"It's just our way of saying, 'we're here. too.'" he said.

Bass variety Placebo's lone highlight
Kansan music boy
By Matt Cox
Fans of Placebo who hoped for a live duplication of Placebo's debut CD at the Granada Theater Saturday got just a little bit less than what they expected.
Placebo played an hour and fifteen minutes before Stabbing Westward stole the show. They didn't display enough punch, energy, or diversity in musicianship to warrant playing the entire time.
Their performance didn't match the quality of their album, Without You I'm Nothing, or do much else
interesting.
Placebo did display some originality by playing half the songs without a bass guitar, a vital instrument for almost every band.
The absence of the bass guitar on those songs didn't mar the tunes, and rather instilled surprise in the audience that the songs still sounded good without the bass.
However, this could not over-shadow lead singer Brian Molko's voice. Vocal effects made his voice on the album less annoying than it could've been, but that was not duplicated live.
During two songs, his voice was

so sharply nasal that half of the audience in the Granada had to cover their ears — not because of the volume, but because Molko's voice almost made their ears bleed.

Despite that, it was an average representation of their album.

Revamped Roller Derby draws new following
The Associated Press
ORLANDO, Fla. — The camera rolled and California Quakes skater Sean Atkinson, taking a cue from a producer, jumped out of his seat in the stands and started taunting a member of an opposing team.
Soon, Atkinson and his opponent were rolling around on the skating track, exchanging fake punches and body slams.
The show is the latest incarnation of Roller Derby, the low-rent piece of Americana that entertained audiences for four decades before it ground to a halt in 1973.
In Roller Derby, men and women speed around an indoor track, scoring points by passing members of the opposing team, who try to stop them by shoving, elbowing and slamming them to the ground.
Although it basically follows the same rules, the next generation of Roller Derby is a tad glitterier and flashier than its knock-'em-down predecessor, immortalized in the 1973 Raquel Welch film *Kansas City Bomber*. The skating is also faster, sometimes up to 35 mph, because the teams use in-line skates instead of roller skates.
RollerJam is taped at Universal Studios Florida in Orlando, Fla. and is shown Friday at 8 p.m. EST On the Nashville Network. Its January premiere reached about 1.2 million homes, according to Nielsen Media Research. By comparison, cable's highest-rated show, WWF Wrestling on the USA Network, reaches about 4.6 million homes.
The roaring studio audience ate it up. Producers of RollerJam hope cable TV audiences will, too.
"Even though it's 60-plus years old, it appears very modern for people raised on MTV and the Extreme Games," said Jerry Seltzer, commissioner of the World Skating League, which calls itself Roller Jam's organizing body.
Seltzer's father, Leo, started the original Roller Derby in 1935 as a way for Depression-era audiences to forget their troubles. At first, the game was based on distance and endurance and physical contact was banned. That changed two years later when audiences took to the shoving and pushing.
Roller Derby was first televised in 1948 on CBS in New York. Television later made stars of skaters as Joan Weston, known as the "Blonde Bomber," who skated for the San Francisco Bay Bombers in the 1960s.
"The they were mean and lean," said Diane Frederick, a Detroit postal worker, fan of the original Roller Derby and spectator at a recent taping of Roller Jam. "The women were meager than the men."
TV producer Stephen Lamb says the inspiration to resurrect Roller Derby in its current form was Weston's death in 1997 at age 62 from an incurable nervous disease.
Loden is romantically involved with Atkinson, the Quakes skater whose father and grandfather competed in the original Roller Derby. The couple's true-life romance has been incorporated into the show's storyline.
There are now five teams that have already taped shows at Universal Studios; the New York Enforcers, the California Quakes, the Florida Sundogs, the Nevada Hot Dice and the Texas Rustlers. A sixth team, the Illinois Riot, is being created. Each team skates with five men or five women, with one to two reserve skaters.
Skaters include a cousin of boxer Marvin Hagler; a woman whose publicity material describes her as an ordained minister, bodybuilder and bodyguard; a former American Gladiator contender; several competitive speed skaters; a former homecoming queen from Iowa; and the "creamed corn wrestling" champion from Daytona Beach's Bike Week.
"When I found out I could knock people over, I said 'Yes!'" said the Sundogs' Denise Loden, 32-year-old former speed skating champion. "I let all that aggression out."
So have the frequent outbreaks of shoving, wrestling, body slams and trash-talking between opposing teams that often make Roller.Iam look like the World Wrestling Federation on skates.
"The violence is part of it." Atkinson said, smiling after his tussle on the track. "We're in the Jerry Springer era and I think that sells."

Cultures differ in their perspectives on tanning
Hope Williams, Chicago, junior, prepares for spring break by tanning at Sunkissed Tanning at 2540 Iowa. Tanning has became an obsession for many who feel that being tan makes them look better. Photo by Aaron Lindhera
Jessica Meunier, junior, said to do to go spring break, ico. In addition, perfect swimsuit her passport, she going to a local team to work on her tan.
Although tanning is mon practice in the United States, not all cultures understand the desire for darker skin color.
Costas Vrahnos, Cos, Greece, senior, said that he was confused when he first heard that people used artificial sources to make their skin darker.
"I didn't know what it was," he said.
"I thought it was a joke. Why do you need such a thing?"
Vrahnos said that the Greek population was more homogeneous than the U.S. population and that skin color and tone was not a cause for

"In Greece, social advance and status is basically based on education rather than skin and hair color." Vrahnos said.
social divisions like it is in other cultures, including the United States.
"In America, being tan is something that goes along with being attractive," said Amy Brungardt, Hays junior.
Like Metzger, several Americans perceive tanned skin as healthy and appealing.
James Shortridge, professor of geography and American studies, said it was obvious that younger generations in United States valued tanned skin.
"Despite all of the medical issues and warnings, tanning is still popular," he said.
Shortridge said he did not know why tanning was popular in the United States.
In other cultures around the world people with lighter skin tones are regarded as more attractive or given more respect.
Andrew Tsubaki, international theater and film professor, said that in Japanese cultures, people with a lighter skin tone were considered higher class than those with darker skin.
Tsubaki said this view was evident in the costumes and make-up in the Japanese theater.
"The ladies paint their face with white powder to try to appear lighter." he
said. "This makes them appear young and beautiful."
Tsubaki said the paler a person was, the higher their social rank. He said this has been a common perception in Japanese culture for centuries
"Noble people were indoors and were not suntanned," he said. "The workers had to be outdoors

and, therefore, were tanned."
"Pale skin means that you were born into the high class," Tsubaki said. "You were maintaining highclass living. It is a reflection of high
birth and well-being."
Although Japanese women hope to stay pale, Tsubaki said it was not socially acceptable for Japanese men to be pale.
"If a man is too pale, he is looked at as a sissy," he said.
Although the United States is culturally diverse, Vrahnos said that Americans did notice the variation of skin tones within U.S. society.
Vrahnos said that he was surprised that American culture categorized people by their skin tone and that people did notice it right away on other people.
Shortridge said that for a country that has historically regarded lighterskinned people in a higher respect, it was a paradox that those light-skinned people today try to alter their skin tone toward a darker shade.
Whatever the status of tanned skin internationally may be, in the United States, tans are not only fashionable, they are big business.
"We're especially busy February through May, because people like to tan before spring break, and then keep their tans for the summer," she said.
Besides spring break, Wilson also said she thought there were other reasons why tanning was so popular and was such a big business.
Metzger has been tanning for spring break, but said she likely would tan even if she weren't going.
"I think that it makes me look a little bit less pale and a little more healthy," she said.

KU students' journey fun, if not fruitful
NEW ORLEANS — Before I am a sports columnist, I am a Kansas basketball fan. That's why when my friend Dave Harris asked me on Tuesday evening if we were going to see the Jayhawks in New Orleans I said, "Why not?"
So this is the story of three college students driving 976 miles one-way to go to the Big Easy to see the Hawks play two.
Thursday 9:00 a.m.; Pick up Dave and Marc. We begin our trek.
11:30 a.m. Arrive in Columbia, Mo., stop for lunch. See former Mizzou point guard Jason Sutherland at Wendy's. He asked me if I wanted my combo meal biggie-sized. I say sure. (That's a loke.)
6:00 p.m.: Stop at Graceland, take pictures. Figure Elvis could bring good luck to the Jayhawks.
Friday 12:30 a.m.: Arrive in New Orleans. Dave has us set up in the downtown Marriott for only $40 an evening. He says it's because he "knows someone." I make a note to myself to look into Dave possibly being friends with Master P.
10:30 a.m.: Leave hotel for Superdome
4:30 p.m. First session's done. See Miami
o' the Wally Snyder.
of Ohio's Wally Szczerbiak score 43 points.
6:30 p.m.: Walk back to the Superdome. Run into Kansas-chartered bus full of fans. See the Robertson family. Dave asks Troy Robertson, Ryan's brother, if it hurts to wear a Jayhawk. He replies, "Not when you've already beat them."
P
Jones is a Mulvane junior in journalism.
6:31 p.m.: Dave wonders aloud if Troy has good seats for the tour.

nament — since it's the only way he'll be involved with it.
6:59 p.m.: Lester Earl checks into the game to a chorus of boos. They really don't like him here.
7:15 p.m.: Evansville is making all its shots. Dave and I are the only vocal Kansas fans in the entire stadium. The alumni section looks at the cheerleaders with blank stares.
7:00 p.m.: Always with a marker and a blank side of posterboard handy, I make an emergency "Lester Rules" sign. The guy sitting behind me tells me not to hold it up. "You'll get shot at in here," he says. I tell him that he should move then, because he's in the line of fire.
8:30 p.m. I walk over and check the pulse of the Kansas alumni section. They're alive, but very mellow. Evansville, a school with only 2,600 students, has much better fans in attendance.
8:45 p.m.. The 'Hawks win .
11:00 p.m.: Hit Bourbon street and celebrate "Hawks victory."
11:45 p.m.: See Lester Earl walking down Bourbon Street alone. I shake his hand and say hi. No sign of Master P.
4:45 a.m.: I buy my last beer of the evening. The bars here must never stop selling beer.
Saturday: No Kansas basketball. See New Orleans, more of Bourbon street later. Many LSU fans harass me for wearing Kansas garb.
6:35 p.m. : Gregory misses game-winning shot at end of regulation. Our hearts break.
6:45 p.m. : Cold shooting in overtime costs us the game. Many fans stop by to shake our hands and wish us good luck on the way home. Dave and I agree that it was a worthwhile trip.
Sunday 11:15 a.m. : Go to Kansas pep rally.
Trying to get hyped about something with alumni is like trying to get excited watching a chess match.
5:00 p.m. Kansas has a better showing of fans for the Kentucky game.
5:05 p.m.: Obnoxious Kentucky girls in front of us complain of our confetti throwing during the starting lineups. We ignore them.
5:20 p.m.: The spirit squad and Dave and I have a mutual respect for each other. We cheer hard for the "Hawks. The band really appreciates the "Stand Up, Alumni" sign we made.
6:15 p.m.: Kenny Gregory gets mugged by Heshimu Evans on what would have been a dunk. Dave and I go belligerent. Some jerk throws water on us. Dave yells that the faceless person is weak.
Bourbon Street defeat
Jayhawks fall to Kentucky in overtime

For the second year in a row, the Kansas Jayhawks' dreams of a national championship evaporated in the second round of the NCAA tournament, as Kentucky squeaked out a 92-88 overtime victory.
The Jayhawks played perhaps their best game of the year and got a career-high 31 points from senior Ryan Robertson, but it wasn't enough to send the Jayhawks to the Sweet 16 for the sixth time in seven seasons.
For once, the game lived up to its billing as two of the winning teams in college basketball history played a game for the ages.
"It was one of those games that Kansas and Kentucky fans will talk about for a long time." Robertson said.
Kansas jumped out to a 10-4 lead and held a 21-15 lead with 11:33 remaining in the first half. Kentucky then went on a 13-5 run and took its first lead of the game at 28-26 with 8:11 remaining in the half. The teams exchanged baskets the rest of the half, and Kentucky took a 40-36 lead into the break.
Kansas forward Nick Bradford went three for three to start the second half, and Kansas pulled even at 48-48 with 15:16 remaining. After Kentucky took its biggest
lead of the game at 57-50, Robertson scored nine straight points and gave Kansas a 59-57 lead.
Kentucky forward Scott Padgett responded by scoring 11 of Kentucky's next 15 points as the Wildcats seized a 71-67 lead with 3:38 to play. In the next 22 seconds both T.J. Pugh and Bradford fouled out and the Jayhawks were left with few options for guarding Padgett.
But the Jayhawks did not fold. Robertson and freshman point guard Jeff Boscheme combined to hit three, three-pointers in a row and gave Kansas a 79-74 lead with 1:29 to play.
"When those two guys fouled on back-to-back plays, it really hurt us," Kansas coach Roy Williams said.
Kentucky point guard Wayne Turner made two free throws with 1:08 left and pulled Kentucky to within three. After Turner missed a running shot in the lane, Kentucky grabbed the offensive rebound and kicked it out to Padgett at the top of the key, who hit the three-pointer and sent the game into overtime.
The Jayhawks had a chance to win it in regulation, but Kenny Gregory's off-balance baseline jumper didn't even draw

Commentary
Lester Earl's homecoming: spicy, turbulent, disappointing
NEW ORLEANS — A weekend trip home for any college junior should be a good time. Barring a funeral or family emergency, the experience is usually positive. A chance to visit friends and family, to see familiar sights and to eat some home cooking sure did put a smile on Lester Earl's face.
But Earl had a bad weekend. Yesterday, less than an hour before boarding the plane to return to Kansas, Earl sat with his face in his hands, tears running down his cheeks.
He was easily the happiest Jayhawk when he found out last Sunday that his team would compete in New Orleans in the NCAA tournament. Earl is from Baton Rouge, La., an hour drive from New Orleans.
The food was excellent and the friends and family showed up 25 strong, but the people intent on ruing Earl's weekend stay also came to his homecoming — Louisiana natives and the Kentucky Wildcats.
Earl spent much of the weekend trying to ignore shouted insults and even threats.

The Jayhawks have earned a shot at the best.

Plagued by foul trouble, junior Lynn Pride played only 23 minutes Saturday, but soared to the basket on the receiving end of two ally-oop passes on consecutive possessions. The 'Hawks play secured a second-round game against the top-ranked Boilermakers of Purdue tonight.
Kansas, the No.9 seed, trailed No.8 seed Marquette by eight points with 10 minutes remaining in the Midwest Sub-Regional's opening game of the NCAA women's basketball tournament in West Lafayette, Ind.
"The lob pass was just something during a timeout that coach said we should go after, and we executed it very well," Pride said.
The first of the two ally-oops — a play utilized much more frequently in men's basketball — resulted in a layup, the second in two Pride free-throws, and both seemed to energize the entire team.
The timing of the set plays turned out to be crucial for Washington's team.
"We definitely wanted to go inside more," she said. "We called that play in the huddle and it worked. It was just an instinctive call. It turned out to be the play that turned the game around. We've used it before, but we figured since we hadn't gone to it all game long that maybe Marquette would be surprised."
The Golden Eagles finished the season 21-8, but have lost in the first round of the tournament three consecutive years. The Jayhawks, on the other hand, have won in four straight first-round matchups.
Kansas will try to shed its slow-starting woes when it faces the No. 1 seeded, and topranked, Purdue Boilermakers tonight at
6:30. The Jayhawks have trailed at the half in all three of their post-season games, including a 64-79 loss to Iowa State, a team Washington said closely resembles her team's next opponent.
"We feel we're going to be facing a team that is very perimeter-oriented," she said. "They certainly have one of the best three-somes in the country. We have faced a team similar to Purdue in terms of a very strong-shooting ball club."
That threesome is made up of guards Katie Douglas and Ukari Figgs, each of whom averages more than 14 points per game, and
Stephanie White-McCarty, a first-team All-American forward. White-McCarty was named Big 10 player of the year after averaging 20.8 points and 5.7 rebounds a game.
The women's NCAA Tournament, which allows the top four seeds in each bracket to host a sub-regional, has proven to be a tough place for underdoses to win.
"We need to take our time and not allow ourselves to get flustered," Washington said. "We'll be facing a huge crowd and all those intangibles are going to effect us one way or the other."

most of the people on our team get up for a game where there's going to be a big crowd whether they're yelling for you or not, Sanford said. "We've faced all kinds of hecklers and crowds in the Big 12, so I don't think it'll be anything we haven't seen before."

Tadav's Birthday (March 15).
Complete an old project by being wildly creative. Then you can start on a new one. An idea from the past brings abundance in April. Search for the perfect job this summer. You could find it by August if you give up an old expectation. Travel in November is good for the soul, and a conference with an old friend in December is good for the pocketbook. Finish paperwork to get what you want in February.
Aries (March 21-April 19): Today is a 6.
Your friends are full of wild and crazy ideas today, and you want to go along with all of them. You tend to get further out on the edge than others you know. They talk about it, but you really do it. You might get away with it, but do be careful.
Taurus (April 20-May 20): Today is a 6.
Somebody may be pushing you to take action, but you need to make your own decisions. Check things out carefully before you do that. Another person is enthusiastic and even a little frantic; You're the one with the common sense, so use it.
Gemini (May 21 - June 21): Today is a 6.
You may think you have everything figured out today, but don't be too sure of yourself. Looks like there could be some changes. Take a cue from an older person with more experience than you have. Advice you get in private could be more useful than the instructions you get in public.
Cancer (June 22- July 22); Today is a 6.
If you've been worried about money lately, settle down. There will probably be enough for everything you have planned, especially since you're so good at managing it. Besides, you're drawing favorable attention from people in high places.
Leo July 23-Aug. 22); Today is a 5.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22); Today is a 5.
A partner's crazy scheme could have you baffled. You don't understand everything, but you don't have to, if the other person knows what's going on, that could be enough for you. If it's not, you've got the wrong partner, especially if money is involved.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Today is a 6.
You should be drawing quite a bit of attention from the good job you've been doing. You do careful work, so more and more people are asking you to do things for you. Instead of getting overwhelmed, find a partner. You already know a likely prospect.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Today is a 6.
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Today is a 6.
Larry 28 Oct 19. Today it is 6
It may take you a while to get back to work from your fascinating weekend, but you need to do that. Looks like there's a lot of stuff piled up waiting for you, but you can still have fun. You'll be making so much money, you'll be able to afford it.
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Today is a 6.
This day gets better as it goes along. You may start out with a difficult problem, but by the time the day is done, you'll have reached a solution. You will, that is, if you don't get stuck arguing with a person who's never going to change.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Today is a 6.
Think carefully today about changes you want to make to your home. You don't want to rush into anything, no matter what your sweetheart says. Be cautious, and get your loved one to help. That will keep him or her from nagging you to death.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Today is a 6.
If you're deciding how to spend your money, here's a clue. Get something you can learn how to do, to improve your skills. The more skills you develop, the more money you can make. The more money you make, the more skills you can develop. It's a win-win situation.
Aaarius (Jon. 20-Feb. 18): Today is a 6.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Today is a 6.
You are amazingly intelligent right now. You have so many good ideas. It's hard to put them all in action.
But that's what you'll get the chance to do, and soon. You've got a little more time for planning, but not much. Better get busy.

LIFE LAW
Against Florida A&M Friday, the Jayhawks gave up a one-run lead in the seventh inning, but came back to score nine runs in the extra eight inning to get the victory. Junior Christy McPhail led off the inning with Kansas' Courtney Wright on second base — teams start with a runner on second in overtime innings. McPhail hit a double, driving in Wright for the go-ahead run.
"I wanted to hit the ball hard and scored the run because they (Florida A&M) were charging, expecting me to bunt," McPhail said. "What motivated me most was the FAMU cheers."
McPhail hit a three-run home run later in the inning, the second of her career, adding to the Kansas lead. McPhail went 3-for-4 in the game, scoring two runs and recording four RBI's.
Note: Horoscopes have no basis in scientific fact and should be read for entertainment purposes only.
"Christy was definitely the big thing for us," head coach Tracy Bunge said. "Offensively, it wasn't pretty. Mentally, some of our players are trying too hard."

Final loss bitter for Kansas seniors

iron as the horn sounded.
On the final play, Robertson penetrated in the lane and dished to Gregory when two Wildcats converged on him.
"I just made a bad read," Robertson said. "If I had it to do over again, I would have shot it."
Williams said that he didn't blame Robertson at all for the final play.
"I think Ryan Robertson played his best college game ever," Williams said. "But if you just look at that one play that didn’t work, it doesn’t do justice to him."
In overtime, the Jayhawks connected on 2 of 11 shots from the field, including 1 of 8 from three-point range, and Kentucky made 7 of 10 free throws down the stretch in claiming the victory.
Kansas wouldn't have even had a chance to win in regulation had it not been for the play of the Kansas backcourt, as Robertson and Bosche combined to score 32 of Kansas' final 38 points.
Robertson made his final game in a Karfas uniform a memorable one by scoring 23 of his 31 points after intermission and connecting on 13 of 14
shots from the free-throw line.
"I wanted to go out and play good and leave everything I had on the floor," Robertson said. "I'll be able to look back and know I had a career day in the last game of my career."
However, it was Kentucky's seniors that clinched the win. The three seniors — Padgett, Turner and Heshimu Evans — combined to score 62 points, including all but seven of the team's 52 points after intermission.
Turner scored 19 points, disdured out seven assists and grabbed six rebounds, and Evans added 14 points as the Wildcats improved their record in the NCAA tournament to 19-1 in the last three seasons.
Kansas seniors will leave the game with a bitter taste in their mouths.
"It's a tough one to take." Pugh said. "One moment you feel like you have it pretty much in hand and you're thinking about St. Louis, the next moment it's over."
Kansas scorers were led by Robert son with 31 points. Bosche scored 15 of his 18 points in the second half, but made only 6 of 21 shots, all from three-point range. Chenowith added 11 points and 10 boards, and Gregory chipped in 11 off the bench.

NEW ORLEANS — The Kansas Jayhawks enjoyed their best shooting day of the season, overcame a 34-point outburst from Marcus Wilson and beat Evansville 95-74 in the opening round of the NCAA tournament in New Orleans on Friday night.
The Jayhawks shot a season-high 63.1 percent from the field, their highest percentage since shooting 66.7 percent against Colorado on Jan. 7, 1988.
Kansas senior Ryan Robertson said the Jayhawks' shooting performance was incredible.
"When you shoot like that, it's no wonder we scored so many points."
Shooting key in Friday's Kansas victory
Robertson said.
Kansas also benefited from its size advantage and outrebounded the Purple Aces 45-15. It was the fifth-largest rebounding margin and the fewest by an opponent in the Roy Williams era
"Obviously, Kansas did a great job of throwing the ball inside and ramming it down our throats," said Evansville head coach Jim Crews. "They do a good job of using different angles and different players in the post."
'The Kansas post player that did the most damage was senior T.J. Pugh. He recorded his first career double
double with 15 points and 10 rebounds, both career highs.
"He was excellent," Kansas center Eric Chenowith said. "They were doubling me so he was finding the seams and getting inside for easy baskets."
Kevin Wilson
After Marcus Wilson's 18 points, Kansas reserve Marlon London entered the game and held him to two points for the remainder of the half.
Fans give Earl a hard time in the Big Easy
Continued from page 1A
He enrolled after high school at Louisiana State University and played basketball for a semester before quitting the team and transferring to Kansas. After his transfer, it was discovered that Earl had accepted money from Louisiana State boosters. Earl accepted immunity from the NCAA in exchange for testimony that now has the Louisiana State basketball program on probation.
Louisiana natives showed up in droves at the Superdome to express their dislike for Earl, whom they consider a traitor. They booed, they shouted obscenities and they made jokes. Earl ignored it all.
But yesterday, the Kentucky Wildcats were able to pierce Earl's heart without speaking a word to him. The 92-88 overtime loss left the seemingly unshakable Earl quite unsettled.
The anti-Earl faction made a strong appearance at Kansas' first-round game Friday. But so did the Jayhawks, defeating Evansville 95-74. Earl spoke jokingly about all the people who would probably pay money to see him cry.
"I didn't realize I had that many fans," Earl said. "I realized they're thinking about me and that kind of made me smile a bit."
many fans were very thoughtful. Some took the time to visit Earl as he walked, escorted by two police officers, from the locker room to the court.
"Cheater, cheater, cheater," one "supporter" screamed as he shoved a five-dollar bill at Earl's $50.
Earl played 10 solid minutes Friday, scoring five points on two of three shooting and grabbing two rebounds. But some crowd members didn't seem to appreciate the effort. They booed each

With 10:07 left in the first half, Earl grabbed an offensive rebound and was fouled when he went for the put-back. The boos from the crowd were the loudest the Super-dome got all day.
Other Earl "fans" showed their support with written messages. A sign in section 110 read, "Roy Showed Lester Da' Money. Boo Jailhaws. LSU #1."
None of it disturbed Earl, or so he said.
"I didn't expect it to be that brutal, but I started to enjoy it. Every time I touched the ball, I turned down the switch," Earl said of his ability to make the crowd boo. "I'm like the power man right now."
Jayhawk forward Nick Bradford said the crowd noise was not a distraction.
"I hope they (the anti-Earl crowd) come back Sunday. That's a lot of support." Earl said.
This time Kentucky fans seemed to adopt the anti-Earl sentiment. Again, Earl was booed every time he touched the ball and, again, the crowd teered.
"They (the fans) don't have anything to do with us losing." Earl said between sniffles. "Being here doesn't have anything to do with it."
"Hey Lester, I got five-grand in a shoe box for ya, baby," one fan velled at the Kansas bench.
A lot of people tried their best to bring a frown to Earl's face but only the Kentucky basketball team succeeded.
They did.
Again, Earl ignored the attention. But he was crushed when his team let a lead evaporate late in regulation and went on to lose in overtime.

Jayhawks earn first Big 12 victory

Kanson sportswriter
The Kansas baseball team ran its way to victory yesterday and earned the Jayhawks' first Big 12 Conference win when it defeated the Iowa State Cyclones 7-6 at Hoglund Ballpark.
The Jayhawks, 4-12 overall and 1-6 in Big 12 play, used eight stolen bases and good defense to defeat the Cyclones (5-9, 0-4) in the series' opening game.
This series was scheduled to be played in Ames, Iowa, but bad weather forced a move to Lawrence. As if that change wasn't drastic enough, the games then were moved to Sunday and Monday, as opposed to the rescheduled Saturday and Sunday.
The only change that came in the Jayhawks' play was improvement on defense, as well as offense.
After putting the scheduling quirks behind them, the Jayhawks still had to face one more obstacle. Even though the game was played in Lawrence, the 'Hawks took the field as the visiting team while Iowa State was considered the home team to compensate for the changes.
"It was kind of an oddity," senior infielder Chad King said. "But I don't think it changed the way anyone played."
"We've been working on our defense, and a lot of that is pitching, but I'm pleased with how we played."
coach Bobby Randall said. "It's always good when you win, but we won and I know we can play better. That's nice."
Kansas jumped out on the Cyclones in the second innning when King led off the inning with a solo home run to right field. Iowa State put up three runs in the fourth inning on two home runs, knocking starting pitcher Chris Williams out of the game
"Chris pitched great, he just lost his control in the fourth." Randall said.
"We weren't scoring enough runs to leave him in there so he could get back on track."

The scoring
trought didn't
last long as
Kansas countered the Cyclone fourth with a two-run sixth and a four-run eighth.
Highlighting the Kansas offense was the play of junior outfielder Brett Kappelmann. Kappelmann, out early in the year with a hamstring injury, slowly has been working his way back into the lineup. Yesterday's performance signified that he was all the way back.
Kappelmann went two for four, scored two runs, and stole four bases, but his catch at the left-field warning
“It’s been kind of slow getting back, but I’m real excited that I can get back out there and run. That’s how I help the team win,” Kappelmann said.
track in the seventh innning may have been his biggest contribution.
"I knew it was hit over me, and I didn't take the best route to it, but I kept my eye on it and managed to make the catch," Kappelmann said.
Randall acknowledged that the catch was a big play in the game, but said that having Kappelmann back in the lineup really helped the Kansas offense.
"He had a big day for us," Randall said. "He stole a bunch of bases and that was a big lift."
The Jayhawks trailed or were tied as they continued to leave runners in scoring position, until the eighth inning, when freshman outfielder Jason Appuhn delivered a two-run double.
The hit gave the 'Hawks the lead and senior reliever Colin Call enough insurance to turn away a Cyclone rally.
Randall was pleased with the team's perseverance and said that he hoped the win was a step in the right direction.
"One thing baseball teaches you is never to give up," he said. "There's no time limit, no shot clock, and I think in certain situations we were trying too hard. In baseball that works against you like in basketball with free throws."
The series concludes today with a doubleheader at Hoglund Ballpark, in which the Cyclones again will be the host team. The first game is scheduled to begin at 1 p.m.

Commentary
Kansas still dominates, sets tone for the future
Early yesterday afternoon, while talking to Evansville guard Marcus Wilson on the phone, I finally figured out how Kansas beat the Purple Aces so easily Friday night.
The fact is, even in a season littered with disappointing losses for the Javhawks (St. Louis, lowly
Texas Tech and Iowa at Allen Fieldhouse), Kansas is simply a better team than any hot-shooting perimeter team like Evansville, which lives and dies by the three-point shot.
The Jaybawks who
UU
Mike Harry
sports@kansan.com
handed the Purple Aces a 95-74
thumping Friday night, would beat
Evansville nine out of every 10
times they played.
In my column Friday, I banked on that one chance.
I was wrong
Wilson, who finished with 34 points, led the Purple Aces on an opening charge of nearly-flowless shooting that sprung them to an 11-point advantage against Kansas. Then reality set in.
The Jayhawks, as I stated in the column, easily outbounded Evansville (45-15) and their front-court seized the offensive opportunities that a size advantage supplied. Forward T.J. Pugh had one of the best games of his career, notching his first career double-double with 15 points and 10 rebounds.
Wilson, who hit 13 of 19 shots,
including five of nine three-point
shots, still seemed a bit shaken by
the blowout as he spoke quietly into
the phone yesterday.
"We went into halftime really confident," said Wilson, whose team trailed 47-43 at the half. "We knew we could play with them. We were only down by a few then. After that, I don't know what happened.
"The second half was such a blur. They just had too strong of an inside game. We couldn't stop them."
Silly of me to think they could.
What a perfect exclamation point to Ryan Robertson's career. His career-high 31-point effort in yesterday's 92-88 overtime loss to Kentucky encompasses everything Robertson has displayed during the past four years playing for the Jayhawks. His hustle and heart leaves Jayhawks fans wanting more.
Freshman point guard Jeff Boschee's fearless play yesterday set the tone for the next three years of Kansas basketball. The one constant in an inconsistent season was Boschee's brimming confidence. In the coming years, that no-fear attitude displayed by Boschee will spill over to his teammates.
I've seen highly-touted recruit Nick Collison play. Jayhawks fans, you have a lot to look forward to.
Nick Collison play. Jayhawks fans, you have a lot to look forward to. Most enjoyable players to watch in the tournament:
Connecticut duo Khalid El-Amin and Richard Hamilton are reminiscent of another great guard-forward combo: John Stockton and Karl Malone.
Gonzaga guard Matt Santangelo makes it happen.
Duke's Corey Maggette — the nation's best freshman will be the top NBA nick in a few years.
Oklahoma's Eduardo Najera — after his 20-point, 15-rebound performance yesterday against North Carolina-Charlotte, I'm a believer. This guy can play.
Maryland guard Steve Francis. "The Elevator's" skills will be more fun to watch next year — when he's in the NBA
Things I've learned during the first four days of the tournament:
Duke is not only better than every college team in the nation, they're good enough to beat some NBA teams (Chicago Bulls, Los Angeles Clippers).
■ Forget about talking to your girlfriend when Wally Szczerbiak is on the TV screen. Szczerbiak, who scored 43 of 10th-seeded Miami of Ohio's 59 points in Friday's win against Washington and scored 24 points in yesterday's win against second-seeded Utah and led his team to its first ever Sweet 16 appearance, looks like someone out of a J. Crew catalog.
Who Harold "The Show" Arcenaux is. Arcenaux, a Weber State guard, torched North Carolina for 36 points in a 76-74 upset Friday night and added another 32 points Saturday in an 82-74 overtime loss to Florida. "The Show" mentioned after the win against North Carolina that he was considering turning pro. He should listen to his coach, Ron Abegglen, and return for his senior season. Besides, Arcenaux will give us one more thing to look forward to next March.
■ Southwest Missouri State Bears coach Steve Alford displays the same coolness on the sidelines as when he was a guard for Indiana and made a then-Final Four record seven 3-pointers to beat Syracuse in the 1987 championship game. Alford should be the leading candidate for any head coaching vacancy when his team's Cinderella run ends Friday against Duke.
There's nothing more annoying than that commercial with former Duke player Steve Wojciechowski sitting on a table in his uniform while researchers extract blue blood from his veins. Wojo, your career ended a year ago. Go over it.
Evansville could never beat Kansas in the NCAA tournament.
Former Kansas player convicted, gets probation
Harrity is a Kansas City, Kan. senior in journalism.
HUTCHINSON — Former University of Kansas basketball player Billy "B.J." Williams was given a six-month suspended prison sentence for exposing himself to neighbors.
Williams, 23, also was placed on a year's probation.
Reno County District Judge William "Buck" Lyle followed the joint recommendations of the prosecutor and defense attorney in pronouncing the sentence Thursday.
Williams played for the Jayhawks from 1994 through 1997 and graduated with a bachelor's degree. He moved in 1998 to Hutchinson, where he lived
with his wife and their two children.
Witnesses told police that Williams stood in front of the picture window at his apartment with a towel around his waist. Williams waited until someone looked in the window and then dropped the towel, exposing himself
Williams pleaded guilty in January to one count of lewd and lascivious behavior. As part of a plea agreement, an additional felony and three misdemeanor charges were dropped.
Lyle noted Williams had no criminal record prior to the conviction.

TOPEKA—Monica Sekulov and Lisa Mallaiah helped the women's tennis team clinch its first homecourt win yesterday against Maryland.
Tennis team wins at home despite return of Topeka star
Women victorious in opener
The match was held at Topeka's Wood Valley Racquet Club because Meg Griffin, Maryland's No. 1 singles player, was promised a trip home to Topeka if she played at Maryland.
By Amanda Kaschube

Kansas sportwriter
The No. 3 doubles duo won the deciding match for the Jayhawks and helped the team win 5-4.
JERUKHOV, Hamersley, Australia, sophomore, and Mallaiah,
North Longwood, Fla., freshman, won their doubles match 9-
8(4) after being down 6-2.
Sekulov said that Mallaiah kept her relaxed.
Sekulov also won her No.4 singles match 2-6, 6-3, 6-4.
"Lisa had some big shots and Monica played really aggressive," said coach Jenny Garrity. "The entire team cheered them on, and the entire team won the match."
"I think I fought really well," Sekulov said. "I was down the whole match."
"We just played as a team and pulled together at the right time," she said.
Sidorova also won her 5. singles match 6-1, 7-6(5). She is now 3-4 in tie breaks.
The No. 2 doubles team of Brooke Chiller, Warrmambool, Australia, junior, and Julia Sidorova, Riga, Latvia, junior, won by default and improved their record to 13-10.
Kris Sell, Moorestown, N.J., senior, made her return after a two-week absence because of a sprained ligament in her left ankle.
"I told them to play smart today." Garrity said. "They did a great job of implementing it."
Sell lost to Griffin 7.5, 7.5, Griffin, a Topeka native, handed Sel
her 10th loss of the season and dropped Sell's record to 20-10.
"Kris has recovered with her tennis, but not in her head." Garrity said. "She still has one or two more hurdles to pass, but I’m proud of her effort."

THE STUDENT NEWSPAPER OF THE UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS
Bus system may appear on ballot
Task force advocates University support
(USPS 650-640)
By Nadia Mustafa
nmustafa@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Students may vote for more than just candidates and a new recreation center during Student Senate elections in April.
Senate's citywide transportation task force is trying to gain administrative support for a joint public bus system between KU On Wheels and the City of Lawrence by gathering student support.
The task force, which has obtained more than 300 signatures on a petition that began last week, has been working with the city on the issue of public transportation for almost a year.
If the task force obtains 1,000 signatures by April 1, the proposal will be put to a student body referendum on the ballot next month. If it passes, Senate would work the
cuy and the state legislature to coordinate a joint bus system.
Tom Moore, Student Legislative Awareness Board campus director and task force member, said that the task force initiated the petition following the last Senate meeting in which there was extensive debate about the merits and disadvantages of a public transportation system.
"I'm very happy to go the route that involves student opinion because we don't have very good representation of what students think about public transportation," he said. "This is a compromise to some misinterpreted signals at an undiplomatic session of Senate."
Moore wants to get a joint statement from the city, University of Kansas and Senate about their support of the system and what it would entail.
He said that he already had obtained a
commitment from Mayor Marty Kennedy and city commissioner Erv Hodges that public transportation would be one of the commission's priorities this year.
Moore said that the major obstacle to a citywide bus system was the misinterpretation of a state statute that did not allow student fees to be used for off-campus programs. But he said Senate, the city and the administration could change the fee status by working with the state Legislature.
Nicole Skalla, KU on Wheels transportation coordinator, said that students would not have to pay extra for a public bus system. She said that it was difficult to estimate how much the system would cost because the task force could not negotiate with the city until the fee status was changed.
Skalla said that one estimate of operating costs was $3 million but that existing student fees would be able to finance the system. She said that a potential student fee increase would be minimal.
"It will be a very slow implementation process more in the form of coordination than integration at first." Skalla said. "Students might have to pay just a little more, but they'll get more extensive service."
Mark Bradshaw, fine arts senator and task force member, said that a citywide transportation system would be a long-term solution to KU's parking problems.
"I hope that everyone who has ever cursed when they got a little purple envelope on their windshields will vote for this," he said. "It will also give students without cars an opportunity to go to their dentist appointments or go get groceries. Plus, it's more environmentally sound than 28,000 cars driving around the city of Lawrence."
The task force will be visiting student groups and housing groups during the next several weeks to inform students about transportation issues and obtain their feedback.

Parking department needs resident input to solve parking woes

Kansas staff writer
The parking department is urging University of Kansas housing residents to become involved in finding a solution to their lack of parking spaces.
Donna Hultine, assistant parking director, said that she had received complaints from Jayhawker Towers and Gertrude Sellards Pearson-Corbin Hall residents about the lack of spaces at their parking lots.
The parking department sold 432 permits for 314 spaces at GSP-Corbin, and 462 permits for 367 spaces at towers. The $75 permits did not guarantee residents a space.
Towers residents can park at Lot 72 by the Burge Union at night before the parking department begins ticketing at 8 a.m. Scholarship hall and GSP-Corbin residents often are forced to park on city streets several blocks away from their halls.
Lindsey Chalfant, Corbin resident and Topea junior, said that there usually weren't spaces left at GSP-Corbain after 9 p.m.
"At Jayhawkower Towers, there are 30 to 40 cars consistently overflowing," Hultine said. "But they're not in the same position as scholarship hall or GSP-Corbin residents because Jayhawkower Towers residents have other options."
Brooke Mayhugh, Jayhawk Tower Towers resident and Leavenworth junior, that there were no spaces at Jayhawk Tower after 8 p.m.
"Sometimes I have to park blocks away on Ohio Street." she said.
ruttine said that similar to the scholarship hall parking problem, the situation at Jayhawker Towers and GSP-Corbin would not
improve. She said that the parking department informed students in advance about the parking situation at the University.
But, she said, Jayhawker Towers residents had the option of buying yellow permits instead of Jayhawker Towers permits, and she would allow residents to trade permits this semester.
"We have a finite number of spaces, and not everyone who wants to be parked in areas are going to be able to." Hultine said.
She said that she was willing to consider limiting the sale of permits to the number of available spaces. Another option would be to increase towing services to reduce the number of cars without permits that park in restricted lots.
Hultine said that she hoped the residence and scholarship hall governments would attend parking board meetings.
Ken Stoner, director of the Department of Student Housing, said that he had heard complaints from residents.
"My initial reaction is that demand should match supply," he said. "Limiting permits might be a solution."
Hultine said that the Fall 2000 parking plan, which includes a new parking garage, would benefit commuters, faculty and staff but that it would not improve the situation at towers, the scholarship halls or GSP-Corbin.
Hultine said that she did not want to take any action without residents' initiative and input.
"We could always use more space everywhere," she said. "But the main problem is with the residence halls."
Hultine said that every category of permit on campus probably was oversold.

Enrollment letters cause confusion for seniors
May graduates receive permits to enroll in mail
By Jamie Knodel
jknode@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Seniors planning to graduate this May should not be surprised when permits to enroll arrive in their mailboxes.
Permits to enroll are sent to all students enrolled at the University of Kansas at the time the permits are generated, said Brenda Selman, associate registrar for enrollment services.
She said that regardless of a student's status, he or she would receive a permit because of several reasons.
Some students expecting to walk down the Hill on graduation day were alarmed when they received a permit to enroll.
"There is no guarantee that they will graduate," she said. "Just because a student is graduating does'nt mean that they wouldn't take other classes."
"When I got it in the mail, I started to question whether or not I was really going to graduate," said Carmen Garcia, Kansas City, Kan., senior who plans to earn a business administration degree this semester.
Kari Evans, Wichita senior, said that receiving a permit to enroll when she planned to graduate in just a few months made her nervous.
Cassandra Erlhacher, Cape Girardeau, Mo., senior, who expects to graduate with a bachelor's degree in communications studies, said that she had not yet received a permit to enroll but that she was prepared for it when it came.
I have friends who are graduating, and they all got treaked out when they got theirs in the mail, so they've warned me that just because I get a permit it doesn't mean that I won't graduate," she said.
Graduating seniors who have applied for University graduate programs might also be confused when receiving their permit to enroll.
Often with graduate programs, a student's status on his or her permit to enroll shows that he or she already has been accepted to the program, although the student may not have been officially accepted to the program.
Although the permit does contain a notice that states that status is pending, several departments make attempts to avoid confusion.
"The permit to enroll should reflect their current status," said Mary Ann Williams, office manager for the School of Education student records. "We try to get students admitted to the graduate program before the permits are printed, so the information is current."
Students who have applied to the law school may have received a permit to enroll that states that they are law school students.
The school sends all KU applicants a letter that states that they will be notified by the law school whether they have been accepted.
"It is very clear when you get admitted," said Georgann Eglinski, law school associate dean. "We send out a letter that very clearly states that they are admitted."

district attorney's office to review investigation
An investigation into unauthorized purchases and altered payroll documents in the Office of Minority Affairs was completed and the report was sent to the Douglas County District Attorney's office late last week, said Lt. Schuyler Bailey of the KU Public Safety Office. Bailey said he could not divulge details about possible suspects since the district attorney was now handling the case.
The district attorney's office is responsible for reviewing the report and determining what, if any, charges to bring in the case.
The falsifications occurred between March 1, 1998 and Nov. 28, 1998.
Naismith resident faces possible drug charges
A Naismith Hall resident assistant called police after noticing a marijuana-like smell coming from a second floor resident's room Sunday, said Sgt. George Wheeler of the Lawrence Police Department.
A plastic bag containing what was suspected to be marijuana was found in the room. Charges of possession of and intent to sell marijuana could be brought against the resident of the room after the results of lab tests are returned.
Campus shrubbery fire wasn't set intentionally
A shrubby fire Sunday west of the Burge Union was determined to be accidentally set although police are not sure how it started, said Lt. Schuyler Bailey of the KU Public Safety Office.
A jogger noticed the fire and called police. The fire did not spread to any buildings, and only a small area of landscaping was damaged, Bailey said. A damage estimate hasn't been made.

Homeless woman arrested after robbing U.S. Bank
A 56-year-old homeless woman was arrested yesterday after she walked up to a teller at U.S. Bank, 901 Vermont St., and demanded money, said Sgt. George Wheeler of the Lawrence Police Department.
The woman, who was unarmed, left the bank with about $500. She was arrested less than a block away from the bank. Wheeler said.
The woman robbed a bank at the same location, which was under a different name, Columbia Savings, in August 1992. She was captured after the '92 robbery in a restaurant on Massachusetts Street, Wheeler said.
Police received notification of yesterday's robbery when a bank employee set off a hold-up alarm. The woman is being held without bond.
Man arrested after chase through Lawrence block
A Topeka resident was arrested at 1:26 a.m. Sunday after he shoved a police officer to the ground and led him on a foot chase through a neighborhood in the 2300 block of Westchester Road, said Sgt. George Wheeler of the Lawrence Police Department.
As police approached the man, who was standing in the yard of a Westchester Road residence drinking out of a cup, he threw down his drink, shoved the officer and ran away. After running through several yards and a church parking lot, he ran back to the house where he was originally seen, Wheeler said.
The officer who was shoved received treatment for a cut on his knee. Criminal damage charges also might be brought against the Topeka man because the officer's uniform pants, valued at $170, and the Nike Supplex running tights, valued at $60, were ripped when he was pushed to the ground.

MANCHESTER, N.H. — Vice President Al Gore, in a show of political force to kick off his 2000 presidential campaign, secured the endorsements yesterday of House Minority Leader
Gephardt supports Gore in presidential campaign
Gore implored a New Hampshire crowd to support him then headed for Iowa and a later stop in his onetime rival's hometown of St. Louis.
Gephardt's announcement reflects the desire of top Democrats to settle the presidential nomination early and set their sights on winning both the House and White House in November 2000.
former New Jersey Sen. Bill Bradley is the only announced challenger for the party's presidential nomination, though civil rights activist Jesse Jackson may enter the fray.
Kosovo agreement puts pressure on Yugoslavia
WORLD
PARIS — Ethnic Albanians delivered a clear "yes" Sunday to an international peace plan for Kosovo, leaving Yugoslavia's president with a stark choice: make peace or face NATO's wrath.
After more than five weeks of intense diplomatic pressure, the Kosovo Albanian delegation told mediators Sunday they were ready to sign the peace accord that gives them wide political autonomy but not the vote on independence. He told reporters he hoped to sign the agreement Monday.
The French and British foreign ministers praised the decision and said it would heighten pressure on Yugoslav President Slobodan Milosevic to swallow the deal, which calls for NATO troops to enforce it.
The ethnic Albanians' earlier reluctance to sign the agreement led to the breakdown of the first round of talks last month and prevented NATO from carrying out threatened airstrikes if the Serbs failed to agree.
Chinese leader criticizes U.S.military in briefing
BEJIING — Anticipating an anti-China wave in Washington when he visits early next month, China's Premier Zhu Rongjie took the offensive yesterday, criticizing U.S. allegations of stolen military secrets and Washington's support for disidents.
Zhu also promised China would push ahead with economic reform despite worse problems than anticipated and asserted the nation was making progress on human rights.
The briefing at the end of an 11-day annual session of the national legislature was the only time all year that such a high-ranking Chinese Communist leader had taken questions from the Chinese and foreign press corps. The 90-minute news conference was broadcast live on national television.
ON THE RECORD
■ Forged checks were written on a KU student's checking account between midnight Jan. 12 and midnight Jan. 13, a Lawrence police report said. The checks were written for a total of $100.

Bookmarks remind readers of book care
By Karen Lucas
Special to the Kansan
KU library books need tender loving care.
That's why Watson Library and other campus libraries have been distributing bookmarks asking "Are You Helping to Preserve This Book?"
The glossy white bookmarks, which made their debut last summer, have a dual purpose.
"They give patrons a non-damaging way to mark pages, and also they give awareness of other preservation issues," said Brian Baird, preservation librarian.
The bookmarks suggest, for example, that patrons carefully photocopy pages, that they keep food and drinks away from books and that they avoid using sticky notes and paper clips as page markers.
Baird said that paper clips were especially hard on brittle paper and that they also could leave rust marks on pages.
Sticky notes can be just as harmful.
"Primarily they can leave a sticky residue behind," Baird said.
"The result of that is when the book is shut, the pages stick together. Also, if they are left in place for a long time, they can remove text or actually tear pages," he said.
Susan Craig, librarian at the Art and Architecture Library, said she thought the bookmarks had been successful.
"A lot of people have been pick ing them up." Craig said.
Ernest Jenkins, Lancaster.
S.C., graduate student, said he used the bookmarks often.
"For me, they're convenient," Jenkins said. "Also, they help protect the books."
Karen Strack, Gardner senior,
said she didn't even know the
bookmarks existed.
"If they would hand them out with the books, it would be better," Strack said. "They need to make people more aware of the bookmarks."
The bookmarks are available in boxes at the circulation desks in all University libraries.
Another patron said he was skeptical about the bookmarks' worth.
"They won't stop people from abusing the books," said Todd Kennedy, Portland, Ore., graduate student. "Students are still going to eat and drink while they're using library books. Old habits are hard to break."
Baird and his staff in the preservation department could not ignore the damage caused by oatrons bad habits.
"Most of the mutilated books involve some kind of replacement — either of pages, the book cover or the entire text," Baird said.
"I think it's worth it because we spend tens of thousands a year coping with patron abuse," Baird said. "If we can raise awareness and eliminate that, it's money well-spent."

He said the preservation department so far had spent about $1,600 on the bookmarks.

Author encourages listeners to accept, embrace diversity

Equipped with genetics, our culture's lust for perfect beings may foster only the extinction of what we seek, said author Patricia Williams, addressing 175 people who filled Woodruff Auditorium last night in the Kansas Union.
In her talk, "Toward a Theory of Grace," Williams, also a Columbia University professor of law, traced an infiltration of racism into the human drive to produce flawless descendants.
They required the woman be 5-10 and have scored at least a 1400 on the SAT.
Williams said she wondered what would happen if, despite the prerequisites, the child turned out short, average and dyspeptic.
What was more troubling, she said, was that most people understood an unsaid requirement in the advertisement — that the child be white.
Williams presented an anecdote of a European woman of African descent who gave birth to a child using the ovum of a white woman. The woman reasoned that it would be better if the white baby were spared the troubles of racism
Williams also gave statistics about adoption practices, in which African-American children made up the largest available population for adoption but were among the least expensive to adopt.
"If breeding was all there was to greatness, tomatoes would taste better," Williams said. "I do worry that technology is amplifying the folly of human beings."
Williams suggested that the proper end of Darwinian logic be diversity, not perfection.
"Adaptability has been our saving grace," Williams said.
She said that by embracing diversity, we would encourage only the natural tendencies of human evolution — the constant refashioning of our species into different and diverse forms.
Williams told about a couple who placed an advertisement in college newspapers saying they would pay $50,000 for a woman's ovum.
"The test of our limits is the tolerance of a self, facing extinction." Williams said.
Ann Cudd, University of Kansas professor of philosophy, said that Williams was incredibly sensitive to cultural symbols of race.
But we should stop looking for baby geniuses and take them as they are. Williams said.
Marin Green, Lawrence junior said that she was reading one of Williams' books for an American studies class.
"Gifted children are an American dream," Williams said in her speech, which was the final lecture of the Humanities Lecture Series.
"It's very nice to get the opportunity to listen to the author of a book we're reading speak," Green said. "It's a very unique experience."

Post-performance applause not thanks enough for Rock Chalk
Members of the five Rock Chalk Revue skits have torn down sets and put away their costumes, but the efforts they and others from University of Kansas living organizations will continue to be noticed by recipients of assistance from the United Way of Douglas County.
Students at the University earned $40,000 through fund-raising and ticket sales. This $40,000 is only the beginning of the United Way's 1999-2000 campaign but it was a remarkable beginning, said Jeff Weinberg, assistant to the chancellor and chairman of the
Fund-raising efforts are an example of selfless giving by University students.
Douglas County United Way.
"This is a completely selfless effort by students," Weinberg said. "This is money they have raised that isn't even going back to the University but rather out to Douglas County."
Wienberg also points out that the monetary sum doesn't even include the hours of hands-on service by KU students.
While celebrating the 50th year of the Revue, much has been said to thank Roy Wonder, the event's founder. Although it has come to be expected that thousands of hours of community service and thousands of dollars be given to the United Way each year, an anniversary also seems a fitting time to thank the students who make the event truly charitable.
For 50, years students have been giving back to their community through Rock Chalk Revue.
Thank you.

NCAA needs academic standards
Universities are institutions of higher learning. Sometimes this definition gets clouded when athletics are involved, and there are many cases in which a student athlete is not considered a student first.
The NCAA has established rules to ensure that student athletes admitted to universities possess a chance at success. The SAT has been a measuring stick of academic ability for many years, but now the use of that tool of measurement is in question.
in question. It would be improper, though, for the NCAA to abandon the practice of minimal standards.
U. S. District Judge Ronald Blackwater ruled March 8 that the NCAA could no longer use minimum scores on the SAT as the sole entrance requirement because of information that the SAT is biased against African Americans.
Use of SAT to determine eligibility a just way of judging entering student athletes.
A student athlete must have an SAT score of 820 to play a university sport. Of the 1.2 million students who took the test last year, the average score was 1,017.
If student athletes do not meet this requirement, they either must sit out one year and earn acceptable grades or attend a junior college.
The NCAA is appealing the ruling with good reason. If there is no set minimal standard, it leaves it up to universities to police themselves. In today's win-at-all-cost world, this is a frightening proposition. Some schools still would set reasonable standards, but others may set virtually no standards in recruiting
efforts.
Before there were minimal standards, there were many cases in which student athletes were only athletes, and some of them had virtually no chance at academic success. Minimal standards ensure that these students can read and do basic math problems.
College athletic teams are not a farm system to develop professional athletes. Many players with scholarships to Division I schools have little or no chance of playing professionally. For them, a degree will be necessary and a reward for four years of service.
Universities have proven through the years that they do need a watchdog to prevent corruption. If the SAT cannot be used as a standard, the NCAA needs to find another standard to help schools ensure that our student athletes are students first.

Perspective
Hunt for college passion leads student to dead end
A girl I used to work with once told me her philosophy on life. She felt that a person should have a passion for whatever it is she does.
Our job consisted of little more than
pulling some boxes to the front edges of shelves in a way that would guarantee profits and benefits for our multitudes of coworkers. She soon quit in order to pursue a more life-affirming career.

between us. A person who is over in my head from time to time, pondering their significance and evaluating how well I follow the policy.
Unfortunately, these mental wanderings finally have led to the realization that I have no real passion in my life right now. My immediate impulse is to weep openly and start running until my legs fall off and my lungs explode and all the energy drains from my body.
I want that feeling of complete exertion — some kind of affirmation that I'm actually doing something with my life.
I can remember a time when I imagined living on my own with a grand sense of freedom, going to college classes that enlightened my mind and hanging out with friends who had funky hair and revolutionary ideas.
Although I have found a group of friends with whom I feel connected on many levels, and they have become my family in this town now that the rest of my little high-school pipe dream has faded into oblivion. Because of school and work obligations, I actually schedule appointments with my friends.
Can you believe this? Penciling in time to hang out and have fun. How can an idealistic college kid lose sight of his priorities like that?
What's more, when my friends and I do find time for each other, it's usually after work. We're dead tired and cranky, hanging out at a bar, complaining about our jobs
and drinking to forget how much we don't want to be here.
As for the glamour of apartment living; that was grounded into the carpet stains long ago. I've finally reached the point of hating my roommate for the subtle little idiosyncrasies we all exhibit in life, and I'm sure he feels the same way about me. Maybe living with somebody for two years just isn't supposed to work. Most of my friends who have done the same just chuckle when I vocalize these complaints, and I guess that's why I know so many people who have significant others living hours away.
Perhaps I've given up too easily on the passions that drove me when I first started college. I had such grand plans when I left home. I was going to write novels and fight for causes and make the world aware of my impending greatness.
Or, maybe it's just me.
Instead, I feel like all I've really done is learned how to beat the academic system. My only motivation these days is to just finish school. I'm sure there is a pamphlet somewhere that will tell me this isn't a healthy approach to life.
Senioritis is an easy claim at times like these, but to be quite honest, I've felt this way for a long while. And, I'm fairly sure that these emotions are not unique to near-graduates.
I don't know why, but I feel like there has to be more to this whole living thing than arranging department store shelves to perfection and writing five-page papers with one-inch margins and proper academic voice.
I do know of some small hope, though.
As I sit here exorcising my demons with black ink — it's not a novel, but it'll do. — I am also trying to work up the nerve to call a girl I met the other night. My face is hot and I've got that funky butterfly feeling in the pit of my stomach. At least it let's me know that I am still alive.
And maybe, just maybe, if I try to focus on some of the smaller passions in life, the rest of it will all fall into place.

Leadership 'glow' fades fast in light of reality, apathy
W when I was in high school, I actually went to several leadership camps. This may sound odd, but back then you must have loved I would grow up to
people actually believed I be worth something. I'm not sure how glad I should feel now that I have proven myself right and them wrong.
Going to those camps, I followed a pretty predictable pattern. I would go and listen to beautiful people tell me what a worthwhile person I was without realizing they were lying.

Then I would come back home totally energized
This chain of events left me very cynical about the entire process. I figured out that the people there were essentially the same people I shared mutual dislike with in real life, only with one exception — these people were willing to pretend they liked me for an entire week.
This realization is one of the primary reasons I've stayed out of University of Kansas politics. I had finally grown enough to realize that politics forces me to have a close working relationship with people I would ordinarily go out of my way to avoid.
and ready to take on the world. The energy generated lasted until I started interacting with non-leadership camp people. Then I, of course, spiraled right back down and remembered that I was worth nothing.
When I went to LeaderShape earlier this semester, I did so against my own better judgment. I had a good idea where it all would go, but I was wrong.
A few weeks ago I finally lost my post-LeaderShape glow. I got a month out of it. That is really not all that bad. I've heard stories of guys who were brought down at the first Student Senate meeting after their LeaderShape experience. See what I mean about politics.
Or so I thought.
When I got back from LeaderShape, I was the most confident I had ever been. I finally thought I had beaten my personal demons. I wasn't hated by all. I was accepted by my peers, and for the first time in my life, I
So why do I hate myself? This is the question that everyone asks. "Why do you hate yourself?" they ask, as though they were great philosophers that stumbled upon a question no one had bothered to consider before.
So when I lost that confidence, I immediately started informing people that I had reverted to pre-LeaderShape Nick. That is really an arrogant claim.
Of course, I might ask in reply "Why are the women in my life who are most concerned about me hating myself the same women who place 'dating Nick' right behind 'commit ritualistic suicide' on their-to-do list?" I could ask that, but then they might think I'm interested and commit hari-kari.
So that claim is totally inaccurate. I haven't really moved away from being post-LeaderShape Nick. What I mean when I say that is that LeaderShape, like everything else in my life, has failed in its attempt to make me like myself. After a month of pretending, I snapped back to form like a bungee cord.
What I'm saying there is that I've got the power to wipe an event out of my life, which isn't true. LeaderShape still is affecting my life and still has an important presence in how I act.
So why do I hate myself? I'll let you in on a little secret. When you have no faith in yourself, it's easier to accept failure.
Failure can be like a kick to the crotch if you wake up in morning expecting to succeed. When you do succeed, it's actually a pleasant surprise, almost as nice as a Christmas present.
really believed I was happy.
But what I remembered after LeaderShape was that when I believe in myself, I'm inviting disappointment. In the course of one month, I was able to hurt myself more while not hating myself than I had in 10 years of hating myself. My emotional walls might keep people out, but they succeed admirably in their job of protecting me.
So I hate myself again, so what. Do you really care?
No, no. Please put the knife down

Quality of life in Lawrence ranks high on citizen survey
By Heather Woodward
hwoodward@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
The results of the 1998 Lawrence Citizen Survey will be reviewed and discussed at tonight's Lawrence City Commission meeting.
The survey revealed that most people were happy with where they lived and the services they received from the city. Overall, residents said quality of life in Lawrence was high, with 86 percent responding that it was good or very good.
The survey also reported that people were feeling safer on the streets than in previous years, with 56 percent responding that they felt safe or very safe.
Mayor Marty Kennedy said the survey reflected approval of the way the Public Safety Department was running.
"We are pleased at the recognition of our excellent fire and police departments that serve our city," Kennedy said. "We are very proud that the city

can accomplish that."
The survey was conducted by graduate students in the Public Administration 836 course at the University of Kansas and can be used by city officials to gauge how well they are doing their jobs.
Kurt Thurmaier, associate professor of public administration, said the survey also showed that most residents were proud of their neighborhoods.
"There is a methodology out there that says more people are moving from east to west. We did not find that to be true." Thurmair said. "Most people like where they are living because the quality of life is important to them."
Support for public transportation increased 20 percent from 1996. In the 1996 survey, the question was linked to an increase in property taxes. Thuraier said separating support for public transportation and financing options gave commissioners a better idea of how residents would like to pay for a citywide bus system.
"We wanted to gauge more accurately how people would like money out of the city budget spent." Thurmaier said.
Commissioner Erv Hodges said he was not surprised by the increased support for public transportation.
"Public transportation is definitely something we won't get to until next year," Hodges said. "This year's budget is already underway, so the earliest we could start working on it is in 2000."

Artist to draw KU with pastels
By Ezra Sykes

Kansan staff writer
Earl Scarborough sat in front of the Sigma Phi Epsilon house yesterday applying red, blue, black and white pastels to an 18 by 24 inch sheet of paper, mixing colors with his fingers and bringing an image of the building to life.
With more than 25,000 pastel drawings under his belt, Scarborough isn't afraid to acknowledge his talent. "I'm accused of being a master of pastel I have to say," said Scarborough, who usually completes his drawings in three or four hours.
Scarborough will sell the completed picture and reproductions to the fraternity and its members, with prices varying according to the number bought.
"Sometimes fraternities get, say, beer mugs, but to have a portrait by an acclaimed artist makes it something of value," he said.
Scarborough's tour will take him from California to Pennsylvania, drawing pictures and spreading his message of art appreciation.
"My reason is to communicate, appreciate and perpetuate. The joy of art is a great mission," he said.
"Art is a place where people can get past their differences," he said.
Scarborough said that art was a great tool in bringing people from different races and backgrounds together.
Scarborough visited Lawrence about six years ago and drew a couple of other Greek houses. Scarborough, who is an honorary member of Sigma Phi Epsilon, plans to draw other KU buildings and fraternity houses during this trip.

T. J. Smith, president of the Sigma Phi Epsilon fraternity and Derby junior, said he would buy a reproduction of the painting to send home to his parents.

KU office goes to the dogs
Animal Care Unit protects animals used in experiments
By Jennifer Roush
jroush @kansan.com
Kanson staff writer
Before 1979 — when the unit became a department at KU — professors who did experiments or research with animals took care of the animals on their own.
One branch of the KU research and public service department has gone to the dogs. And the cats. And the rats, mice and rabbits.
That could have been a liability for the University and possibly for the animals, she said.
The Animal Care Unit, which is in the basement of Malott Hall and funded by the University of Kansas, is home to the animals used for research projects, said Nancy Schwarting, supervisor of technical services for the unit.
"There was no way to assure quality of animal care, and no standardized way of caring for and using animals." Schwarting said.
"The Animal Care Unit's presence at the University is crucial to ensure that every aspect of animal care and use is done in a humane fashion," she said.
The unit wasn't very popular when it opened. Some KU professors saw staff members as the "animal police," which wasn't the unit's function, Schwarting said.
"Dr. Bresnahan's attitude is that we are here to educate people on how to use animals," she said,
referring to Jim Bresnahan, director of the Animal Care Unit.
Bresnahan, a Laboratory Animal Medicine Board certified veterinarian, came to KU from Duke University medical school in 1985. He said that he came to KU because the unit had a reputation of having an excellent program.
"It's a good program for a variety of reasons but primarily because of the people." Bresnahan said. "We have a supportive administration, good investigators and excellent technicians."
techniques. The unit is home to 1,138 laboratory animals now, making it easier for employees to care for the animals than it was during the past decade when numbers were higher. Schwarting said.
Schwarting said that all of the animals at the unit were used in research at KU but that no invasive research was done to any animals except the rats and mice. The cats, dogs and rabbits at the unit are usually involved in antibody production or oral health studies.
Atmough the majority of the unit's animals are rats or mice, it houses at least a dozen other species, including the snakes exhibited at the Natural History Museum.
Animals housed at the unit also are guaranteed a happy retirement after their research careers are finished.
Schwarting said that all of the unit's 30 cats, for example, would

go home with caregivers or investigators after the projects were finished. All of the unit's dogs will have homes as well.
She said that she enjoyed her job and loved the animals.
Emily Cowles, Overland Park junior, is a biology student who fed and cared for the unit's cats on weekends and holidays for more than two years.
I take a dog, and she just goes crazy whenever I come home because I smell like cats," she said. "When you let 15 cats out of their cages all at once, they just start rubbing up against your legs."

For sophomore forward Brooke Reves, it wasn't enough just to make the trip to the NCAA Tournament. She wanted to make an impact.
Because of the NCAA transfer rules, Keves nai to watch her team advance to the Sweet 16 last season from her living room in Lawrence. But last night in West Lafayette she provided an offensive spark for her Jayhawks, but no one else was able to catch fire.
Kansas, the No. 9 seed, struggled offensively the entire game and fell to the top-seeded Purdue Boilermakers, 55-41, in the Midwest sub-regional last night in West Lafayette, Ind.
The 41 points marks the Jayhawks' fourth-lowest scoring total of all time.
"We weren't comfortable," Reves said of the Jayhawks' offense. "It wasn't flowing. If they stopped us one way, we didn't have another option. We just froze. Everybody stopped cutting, including myself."
Reves finished with a team-high 14 points and grabbed seven rebounds, but the team shot only 38 percent from the floor. Leading scorer Lynn Pride was held to just nine points, only the fourth time all season she hasn't reached double figures.
"If Lynn has the ball and they all squeeze to her, somebody needs to cut to the basket," Reves said. "They really tried to stop Lynn, and the rest
of us should have been working to get open. We didn't seem to do that. Our depth kind of slowed us down."
Lack of depth has been a problem for the team since the beginning of the season, and last night was no exception. The Kansas bench managed only two points in 24 minutes of play.
"The fact that they were switching on everything caused a lot of problems for our offense," Pride said. "We can say that defensively we did a great job. We held a great team to a low percentage."
The Jayhawks held the top-ranked team in the nation to its lowest point total of the season and just 26 percent first-half shooting, and trailed just 22-16 at the half.
"We really worked hard on defense," Reves said. "We felt we controlled the tempo of the game for a while. We were really confident, and it somehow slipped away from us."
The score was 30-28 with nine minutes remaining in the game when Pride left the game with her fourth foul. The Boilermakers proceeded to go on a 15-2 run during the next five minutes as Purdue's talented, three-guard attack led the way. Ukari Figgs, Stephanie White-McCarty and Katie Douglas totaled all but two of their teams points during the crucial run that put the game out of reach. The trio finished with 14, 13 and 15 points respectively.
Season of highs and lows ends in disappointing blow

The roller coaster ride is over.
The Kansas Jayhawks' most unpredictable season in the 1990s ended Sunday with a heartbreaking 92-88 overtime loss to the Kentucky Wildcats, the defending national champions, in the second round of the NCAA Tournament.
"I have never been as proud of team as this one here," Kansas coach Roy Williams said. "We were so close to getting what we wanted. To come through and improve down the stretch like they did, makes me very proud."
The Jayhawks, who finished the season 23-10, had won seven of their last eight games and won their third consecutive conference tournament championship prior to the heart-breaking loss to the Wildcats.
For most universities, a 20-win season and a berth in the NCAA Tournament would be cause for celebration but not for the winningest men's college basketball team in the 1990s. This season the bipolar Jayhawks suffered through extreme highs and lows.
Kansas' 62-game home winning streak came to an end when Iowa rallied from an 18-point second-half deficit to defeat the Jayhawks at Allen Fieldhouse for the first time since the 1993-94 season.
The Jayhawks dropped out of the Associated Press' top 25 poll Feb.1 for the first time since Jan. 21, 1991. They were ranked in the poll for 144 consecutive weeks.
The Jayhawks were embarrassed by the same Kentucky team that ended their season in early December at the Great Eight in Chicago, and Nebraska ended a nine-game losing streak to the Jayhawks by sweeping both regular
season games against Kansas.
Rayford Young exploded for 41 points as Texas Tech beat Kansas for the first time in 10 tries, and St. Louis and Iowa State surprised the Jawhavks as well.
Kansas not only suffered its most losses since Williams' inaugural season but also had to do deal with a season-long rash of injuries to their already depleted front line. Senior T.J. Pugh sat out the first three games of the season because of an ankle injury, junior college transfer Ashante Johnson missed the first 15 games because of a knee injury, and junior Lester Earl was unavailable for 11 games throughout the season because of various injuries.
Williams not only had to find replacements for his wounded players, but he also was faced with the daunting task of replacing two All-

Softball pitches its home opener in doubleheader against Arkansas
By Brandon Stinnett Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas softball team is hoping to give its season a boost today in its home opener, a doubleheader against Arkansas.
The Jayhawks (11-10) are coming off a 3-2 eighth-inning loss to Virginia Sunday in the semifinals of the Silver Bracket of the Lady Seminole Invitational in Tallahassee, Fla. Kansas finished the tournament with a 2-3 record, losing three games by a total of four runs.
"So far we haven't been very consistent," said junior shortstop Christy McPhail. "We have to find a way to play with the same intensity every game. So far, we're not doing that."
"We're struggling right now," said coach Tracy Bunge. "Obviously, we're not happy with the way we are playing. I think it's just our youth and inexperience coming out."
After jumping out to an 8-3 record to start the season, Kansas has dropped seven of its last 10 games.

"We haven't been hitting very well, but our defense and pitching was good," McPhail said. "I don't know what it is. We've been blowing leads in the late innings."
Kansas has had trouble producing with runners in scoring position. The team stranded 32 runners in five games this past weekend.
came after squandering leads in the seventh inning.
The Jayhawks will try to get back on track against Arkansas before playing in the Airtouch Cellular Capital Classic in Sacramento March 18-21. McPhail said playing at home should give Kansas an advantage.
"It seems like we always have runners on base, but we can never get them," McPhail said.
"We lost two games to Arkansas last year that we never should have lost," McPhail said. "I'm

really excited to get to play at home and the weather will be nice. Not having to travel takes a lot of pressure off us."
"The kids are dead tired," Bunge said. "But we can't let that be an excuse. If we come out and play like I know we can, we will come away with two wins."
Bunge said that the players can't afford to let lack of rest get them down.
"Spring break is usually a time when the team does a lot of bonding." McPhail said. "We need to get everything together before the Big 12 play starts next weekend."
The Lady Seminole Invitational kicked off a two-week stretch where Kansas will play at least 14 games.

'Hawks rip through Iowa State for first sweep in two seasons
By Matt Tait
After Sunday's win against the Iowa State Cyclones, coach Bobby Randall was pleased but said his team could play better. Apparently, he was right.
The Jayhawks concluded the Iowa State series at Hoglund Ballpark with two wins yesterday, including a 12-5 win in game two that Randall called the team's best performance of the season. The wins earned the Jayhawks their first conference sweep in two years.

Kansan sportswriter
Even though Kansas played on its own field, the Jayhawks were the visiting team because the games that were originally scheduled to be played in Ames, Iowa, had to be moved because of bad weather.
The Jayhawks provided Philbrick with two runs in the first and extended the lead to 5-1 going into the ninth. In the ninth, the "Hawks tacked on four insurance runs, thanks in part to a circus of errors committed by the Cyclones and won the first game 9-1.
"After the Texas series, I was really concentrating on hitting the corners," Philbrick said. "I think mentality wise I go at it the same, but since I didn't give up any runs in the first, I was more confident."
In the afternoon game, Kansas starter Rusty Philbrick pitched eight dominating innings to earn the win.
"The defense played really well behind me," Philbrick said. "If guys got on, the defense helped me get out of it."
If a 9-1 victory wasn't enough improvement, the Jay hawks decided to save the best for last, as they again defeated the Cyclones in convincing fashion, 12-5.
The Jayhawks didn't make an error in the first game and played an all-around excellent defensive game.
"This was our best game," Randall said. "We got a good performance by a lot of guys, and truthfully, I did.
Junior Ryan Schmidt started game two and pitched four innings allowing three runs on six hits before giving way to freshman Ryan Klocksien who finished the game allowing only two more hits.
"Schmidt pitched real well, and then Klocksen came in and did a good job for us," Randall said.
Baseball
Offensively the Jayhawks pounded out 14 hits. Sophomore John Nelson and junior Brett Kappelmann led the charge as they delivered three hits a piece. Included in Kappelmann's was a home run, his first of the year.
Despite the explosion of hits and runs throughout the series, Randall said that the key to sweeping the Cyclones was the solid defense.
"Nelson played a great shortstop all weekend, and Harrison Hill played good in center field, as did Chad King at first and Brandon O'Neal showed some signs of maturity," Randall said. "We're playing better, and I knew we would. It wasn't a panic deal. I'm just glad we started it."
The Jayhawks next action comes this weekend as they play host to the Nebraska Cornhuskers for a three-game series.

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday:
You're so powerful this year you may not know your own strength. Visualize the perfect life in March, so by April you can put a down payment on it. There is plenty of love and money, but discipline is required. You'll have to add that in May. Take on more authority at work in August, and let someone else lead you in November. An ancient secret is revealed in December, to your benefit. Make sure the bureaucratic paperwork is in on time in February.
Aries (March 21-April 19): Today is a 5.
Jessie (mature 2) writes:
You don't spend much time daydreaming. You're more of an action person. So, you might be surprised to notice yourself gazing off into space. Try not to let it worry you. You could actually come up with some pretty good ideas. Better write them down.

Taurus (April 20-May 20): Today is a 6.
You were right to wait. This is a much better day for you to take action. You won't have to do it all alone, either. You've got some very good friends who would like to help. Let them know how they can do that.
Gemini (May 21-June 21): Today is a 4.
P
You've got a wild imagination, but you kind of like things to make sense. If they don't, you get a bit worried. You're not really one to take a leap of faith, but today you could get away with it. Give it a try.
Cancer (June 22-July 22): Today is a 6.
Cancer page 22-39
This would be an excellent day to start on your world cruise. Travel by water looks very good for you right now. If you can't actually get away, at least put a down payment on a dream. That's a first step to turning fantasy into reality.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Today is a 5
Ly July 29-25 August If you're going to speculate today, take care. Real estate looks like a good investment, but romance may not be quite yet. You and your sweetheart need to work out a few details before you make a big commitment, like where to buy the real estate, for example.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Today is a 6.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Today is #4
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Today is a 6.

You thought you had things figured out, but today you're in for a big surprise. You may have the right answer, but it's to the wrong question. In order to avoid excruciating embarrassment, listen carefully to the instructions and the advice of co-workers. The test today is on how much you can learn
Virgo (Aug. 25-September 21), today
Look carefully before you leap today. Things may not be as they appear. Well, they are initially, but then they change, and that is what you have to be watching for. Today it might seem like life's a roller coaster, but that is just part of the fun.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Today is a 6.
You seem to be having a conflict today between love and money. If so, stop worrying about it right now. It's only temporary. Besides, you know you should pick love over money. If you've got plenty of money, who needs money? And anyway, you'll think of more ways to make money.
You're sharp as a tock today, and twice as cute. Not only are you intelligent, you're also intuitive. In fact, your intuition may be working better than the rational side of your brain right now. Pay attention to what it's telling you. It could have something to do with making a connection
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Today is a b.
A household project definitely needs your attention. You've put it off long enough. A change for the worse is happening almost by itself. Change for the better is going to require participation on your part, and possibly the expenditure of some money, too. Better at it.

**Aquarius** (jun. 2018. e.b.) today.
Money is one of your major themes today. Looks like you could find a way to get more of it into your pocket. Some of it will come from the generosity of an older person, and some might come from your own creativity. Better get some patents on those good ideas of yours.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Today is a 6.
The sun and moon are both in your sign today, which gives you all sorts of magical powers. Your intuition should be excellent but a little one-sided. Be careful you don't imagine something that isn't really there. And focus only on good things, just in case you accidentally materialize something.

"They have some great guards, and their whole team works really well together," Reves said. "They click offensively and swing the ball and find the open player. They know who takes the shots and where."
Kansas finished the season 23-10 but know that they played well against a tough final opponent.
"This team of mine, I am extremely proud of them," said coach Marian Washington. "We've had some limitations all season long. They have found a way to pull themselves together and to get into a position to earn the opportunity to be in this tournament."

Season's triumphs complement effort

Americans, Raef LaFrentz and Paul Pierce, and the school's all-time leader in three-pointers. Billy Thomas.
In light of all the adversity surrounding the season, Williams said he had more respect for this team than any he has coached.
"With all the adversity they've been through — the injuries, the blown big leads, the first team to lose at home, the first team to lose three games in a row, the first team not to win the regular season. Some think it was a down year, but you can't compare this to the past two years," he said.
This season did have its fair share of highlights.
Kansas defeated Missouri in the Hearnes Center for the first time since 1995, and St. Charles, Mo., native Ryan Robertson finally beat the Tigers in his home state. The Jayhawks won all three games against in-state rival Kansas State, including their 16th straight in Manhattan, Kan., and handed Texas, the Big 12 regular season champions, one of only three conference losses.
With an NCAA tournament bid
in question, the Jayhawks beat Sweet 16-bound Oklahoma in Norman and eked out an overtime win on Senior Night against Oklahoma State.
Plus, the Jayhawks' season-opening victory against Gonzaga looks even more impressive after the Bulldogs crashed the Sweet 16 party this weekend.
Sunday's loss also marked the last time seniors Robertson, Pugh, Jelani Janisse and Chris Martin will ever don a Kansas jersey. Although the Jayhawks weren't able pull out the victory, Robertson went out with a bang, scoring a career-high 31 points.
"I can't say enough about Ryan and what he's meant to this team," Pugh said of his roommate.
Even though this senior class is moving on, Williams said he expects more from next year's team.
"We're getting sick and tired of coming back so early from the NCAA Tournament," Williams said. "I want to challenge these undergraduates and myself and the (coaching) staff to make these appearances a heck of a lot later in the year."

UNFORTUNATELX, THIS IS WHERE PEOPLE ARE PUTTING TOO MANY RETIREMENT DOLLARS.
Every year, a lot of people make a huge mistake on their taxes. They wind up sending Uncle Sam money they could be saving for retirement.
Fortunately, that's a mistake you can avoid with SRAs—tax-deferred annuities from TIAA-CREF. SRAs not only ease your current tax bite, they offer an easy way to build retirement income—especially for the "extras" that your pension and Social Security benefits may not cover. Because your contributions are made in pretax dollars, you pay less in taxes now. And since earnings on your SRAs are tax
deferred, your money works even harder for you.
Today, we offer other before- and after-tax financial solutions, including IRAs and mutual funds. They're backed by the same investment expertise, low expenses, and personal service that have made TIAA-CREF the choice of America's educational and research community.
Why write off the chance for a more rewarding retirement? Stop by your benefits office or call us at 1800842-2776 and find out how TIAA-CREF SRAs can help you enjoy happier returns.

Low seeds advance to NCAA Sweet 16
Weekend upsets keep long-shots alive
The Associated Press
Miami of Ohio made it, but Miami of Florida didn't. All the top seeds advanced, but so did long-shots Southwest Missouri State, Gonzaga, Purdue and Oklahoma.
The NCAA tournament was reduced to 16 teams during the weekend, a group that includes traditional powers like Duke and Kentucky as well as five double-digit seeds — the most ever in the regional semifinals.
Duke, the heavy favorite to win it all, continued its impressive run Sunday with a 97-56 rout of Tulsa at the East Regional in Charlotte, N.C.
William Avery scored 19 points and Elton Brand added 17 as the top-seeded Blue Devils won their 29th straight game and reached the regional semis for the 10th time under coach Mike Krzyzewski.
"They are like a bunch of sharks. When they smell blood, they definitely swarm to you," said Tulsa coach Bill Self.
Kentucky moved another step closer to its fourth straight NCAA
title game by beating Kansas 92-88 in overtime at the Midwest Regional in New Orleans.
Scott Padgett scored a career-high 29 points, including seven in overtime, as the Wildcats won their first postseason meeting with the Jayhawks.
NCAA
"We weren't ready to go home," Padgett said. "We felt like we had something to defend here. I think we just willed that win."
No. 13 seed Oklahoma, No. 12 Southwest Missouri and a pair of No. 10s — Miami of Ohio and Purdue — pulled off upsets Sunday to advance to the final 16. They joined No. 10 Gonzaga, which stunned Stanford on Saturday, as double-digit seeds in the regional semis.
Michigan State, the top seed in the Midwest, advanced with a 74-66 win against Mississippi on Sunday. The other top seeds, Connecticut (East) and Auburn (South), won on Saturday.
Eric Martin made six 3-pointers as Oklahoma beat North Carolina- Charlotte 85-72 at the Midwest Regional in Milwaukee.
“Being a 13th seed, I'm sure a lot of teams looked over us,” Martin said. “We've beaten great teams all year and still no respect. But it comes down to just playing ball, no matter whether you're a one seed or a 16 seed.”
Danny Moore scored 25 points as Southwest Missouri State humbled Tennessee 81-51 in Charlotte. The Bears, coached by former Indiana star Steve Alford, shot 52 percent from the field while holding the Volunteers to 30 percent.
Wally Szczerbiak had 24 points seven rebounds and five assists as Miami of Ohio eliminated Utah 66-58 in New Orleans. Miami ended a 23-game winning streak by Utah, which lost to Kentucky in the national title game last season.
Brian Cardinal scored 20 points as Purdue beat second-seeded Miami of Florida 73-63 at the East Regional in Boston. In Sunday's other game, Temple beat Cincinnati 64-54 in the East.

Golf teams fare well in weekend tournaments
The Kansas men's and women's golf teams both rebounded from sub-par performances in their first spring tournaments to finish fourth and third respectively in tournaments last weekend.
The Kansas men participated in the UNC-Charlotte Birkdale Classic. The team had a strong second-round score of 291, and the 40th-ranked Jayhawks finished with a score of 886. North Carolina, ranked 22nd, won the Classic with a score of 862.
The Jayhawks were led by junior Ryan Vermeer, who finished in a tie for second with a three-round total of 213. Vermeer shot a remarkable 68 in the final round to tie North Carolina's Max Harris for second.
Nebraska's Josh Madden won the individual title with a three round total of 211.
Junior Jake Istnick finished 12th overall, scoring 219. Senior Chris Thompson finished in 32rd place, with a score of 227, with freshman Casey Harbour right behind Thompson in 33rd place, with a score of 228.
Sophomore Andy Stewart was the final Jayhawk to participate, and he finished in a tie for 73rd, with a score of 238.
The Kansas women finished third last weekend at the Mountainview Collegiate in Tucson, Ariz. Senior Mandy Munsch
KU golf
was in a first place tie after one round with a score of 73 but finished in fifth place, her highest finish as a Jayhawk, with a score of 148.
No Jayhawk finished lower than 27th at the Collegiate. Junior Susan Tessary narrowly missed a top-10 finish, shooting 152 for an 11th place tie.
Sophomore Ashley Bishop finished one stroke behind Tessary, and she finished in a tie for 15th place. Bishop's score of 153 was a career best.
Freshman Ashley Lowery tied for 21st place with a score of 155, and Carrie Padden shot a 161, good enough for a 27th-place tie.

Houston Rockets guard wants larger role in offensive game
HOUSTON — Scottie Pippen didn't expect to feel comfortable immediately with the Houston Rockets' offense. But he didn't expect to be a virtual spectator 22 games into the season, either.
Pippen has been getting more frustrated as his offensive production diminishes. The Rockets usually pound the ball inside to Charles Barkley and Hakeem Olajuwon rather than run the ball, which Pippen prefers.
The Associated Press
Pippen, who signed a five-year, $67.5 million contract in January, took only five shots and scored four points in 35 minutes Sunday during a 104-90 loss to the Phoenix Suns.
offense. It makes the game not fun anymore. My next step is to find why this organization wanted me."
"I'm frustrated," Pippen said. "Playing the minutes I'm playing, I'm not involved in the
Pippen is averaging 40.6 minutes per game, fourth in the NBA, but he doesn't believe the Rockets are getting the most from his talents. Against the Suns, Barkley took 21 shots and Olaiuwon 14 shots.
"We have to get everybody involved," Pippeen said. "We have to make the game fun for everybody."
Pippen had similar comments following Saturday night's 100-89 victory against the Cleveland Cavaliers when he had only one point in the first half but ended up with 16 points and 10 assists. The Rockets might have lost without his second half spurt.

tal part of the

Against the Cavaliers, Pippen was 4-for-11 from the field, and Olajuwon was 11-of-19. Pippen is averaging 15 points, 5.6 assists and 7.5 rebounds.
Pippen was accustomed to the consistency of the Chicago Bulls, where he was the sidekick for Michael Jordan. The Bulls won six NBA championships in Pippen's 11 years with the team. Pippen is not a pivotal part of the Rockets' offense, and some of his teammates are aware of that.
"We've had moments where we clicked on all cylinders and that is exciting to see," Price said. "If we ever get into the flow, we can be dangerous."
"We just have to do a better job of diversitying," Barkley said. "We've got to do a better job of getting it to Scottie and Michael Dickerson."
NFL hesitant about location of expansion team
The Rockets have struggled to get all their all-star parts working together. They've beaten only two teams with winning records, but guard Brent Price has seen glimpses of what the complete offense can do.
Team owners on Sunday delayed any decision on where they will place a 32nd franchise — or, indeed, if they will expand anytime soon — even though Houston's bid seems to have all the ingredients. What Houston doesn't has is the No. 2 market in the United States, something the NFL desperately wants.
PHOENIX — If the NFL likes what it has seen and heard from Houston so much, why doesn't it just give the Texas city an expansion team? Simply because the league like to see and hear the same kind of things from Los Angeles.
The Associated Press
So Los Angeles, despite the presence of competing groups, each without a stadium proposal in the same ballpark with Houston, is
getting extra time to come up with one.
"If the Los Angeles situation was as far along as Houston's situation, we'd come away with a much clearer idea of what will happen this week," Cleveland Browns president Carmen Policy said. "We need a clear relationship with the Los Angeles community and the state of California powers that be."
The Browns are the league's 31st team, beginning play this season. With an odd number of teams, the schedule gets messy, with at least one team off every week — including the opening weekend and the final weekend. Although the 32nd team probably wouldn't begin play until 2002, most team owners believe it is imperative that the enrollment be expanded.
32nd team isn't looking at it, "Steele president Dan Rooney says. "We need 32 for the schedule and to get eight divisions of four teams."
"Anybody who doesn't want a
But Jerry Jones, owner of the Dallas Cowboys, isn't so sure expansion is a good idea. He wouldn't be surprised if no decision was made at the winter meetings. "I think it's understandable to want a team in Los Angeles and a team in Houston. It's more a
NFL
question of the timing and the owners and the stadium." Jones said.
Robert McNair, who heads Houston's bid for a new team, isn't so patient. He even sent a letter to nine teams he claims do not have advantageous stadium situations
to express his group's interest in buying a current team and moving it to Houston if the city doesn't get an expansion franchise.
He also realizes that further delays in making a decision helps Los Angeles, which lost the Rams and Raiders four years ago. Houston lost the Oilers to Tennessee after the 1996 season.
"Clearly, you've got some owners who do not want to do anything, some owners who want to go to Houston ... Some who want to wait and see if something can be put together in Los Angeles," McNair said.
"You're going to have to get a coalition of at least two of those groups in order to come up with the 24 votes. So there has to be some type of compromise to resolve the issue."

English classes to expand
College to increase size of some sections in fall
By Chris Hopkins
chopkins@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
After pressure from the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences administration, the University of Kansas English department will enlarge several class sections for the 1999-2000 school year.
The change, which could double or triple some class sizes, has been debated heavily within the department.
(USPS 650-640)
Max Sutton, professor of English, said that the natural sciences department already offered too many large classes and that he didn't think the English department should operate the same way.
Richard Hardin, chairman of the English department, said the college was interested in having more contact between undergraduate students and senior faculty.
"The college and the University are interested in making the most of their resources," Hardin said.
"I believe students do better in smaller classrooms," Sutton said.
The department had offered larger classes during the past few semesters to test how well the idea would work.
Chester Sullivan, associate chairman of the English department, is teaching a course called Major British Writers after 1800 to about 70 students this semester. The maximum amount of students in the class had been set at 90 people.
"It gives me an opportunity to speak to a large audience," he said. "It gets me pumped up a little bit because it's an auditorium situation."
Sullivan said the larger class also gave him an increased number of truly interested students. He said this particular class didn't need smaller sections.
Dennis Quinn, professor of English, is teaching a course called Shakespeare. The department plans to increase the maximum amount of students in one section next year.
Quinn said that he had taught large classes before and it hadn't hurt his teaching but that he thought that was related to his teaching style.
Jason Bredemeier, Seneca junior and a student in Quinn's Shakespeare class, said that he doubted it would work well with more people and that he didn't like larger classes.
"It's impersonal — the teacher doesn't try to learn names." he said.

Grant finances afterschool activities

Amid the alphabetical banners and the thigh-high drinking fountains. Nicole
drinking fountains, Nicole Bartz and Stephanie Miller train children to play tennis in the halls of East Heights Elementary school.
"I recruited Nicole to play tennis with me because we play tennis all the time," said Miller, El Dorado senior.
Bartz, El Dorado junior, said,
"It's really crazy, but we like it
because of the kids."
Bartz and Miller are two of 40-60 KU students who work at new afterschool programs at East Heights Elementary, 1430 Haskell Ave.; New York Elementary, 936 New York St.; and Central Junior High, 1400 Massachusetts St.
Brenda Nuñez, coordinator at East Heights, said the afterschool sessions began after the schools received a three-year, $3 million grant from the federal government.
"We were a little shaky at first, but it's gotten so much better," said Tina Thompson, director of the program.
She said the grants were aimed at poorer areas of the country, where students might not have the same extracurricular options.
this is the first year for the program, which offers classes for students in kindergarten through ninth grade.
The program represents part of a nationwide push by the Clinton administration, she said.
Andrea Edwards, Lawrence resi
"One of the biggest goals in the grant is to provide those kinds with opportunities," she said.
dent whose small 7-year-old daughter Champrell was whacking a tennis ball with an adult-size racket yesterday, said both she and her daughter liked the new programs.
"It gives her something to do instead of bugging me," she said, laughing. "She loves it. She hates to leave."
Thompson said the University had been involved with the program from its first stages. Jerry Bailey, director of research for the KU education administration, wrote the final draft of the grant proposal, she said.
Community members, parents and the Lawrence Arts Center, 200 W. Ninth St., also are involved in the program, she said.
"The more collaboration involved in the grant, the better the chance we would get funding," she said.
Thompson said the KU students made up half to three-fourths of the program's 80 workers.
Nunez said the teachers were paid $8 an hour.
Mijanou Burger, Kansas City, Mo., senior, said she enjoyed working with kids and would teach more classes next year. Yesterday afternoon, she was mixing paint for Danielle DuMortier, an eighth grader.
Thompson said her goal with the program was to make an impact on the students.
"I would like to see kids say, 'this has really made a difference in my life.'" she said.

"I love it," she said. "This is the favorite class I've taken so far. It's better than sitting at home watching TV."
DuMortier said she planned on taking other classes that Burger offered.
Graduate, student petition to toughen hate crime policy
By Nadia Mustafa
nmustafa@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
While hundreds of college students from around the country gathered in Washington, D.C., yesterday to show their support for a federal Hate Crimes Prevention Act, a group of KU students also advocated a zero tolerance policy for hate crimes and sexual assault at the University of Kansas.
Matt Caldwell, 1998 KU graduate, and Deidre Backs, Lenexa senior, are leading a petition drive to gather student support for mandatory and permanent expulsion of KU students convicted of hate crimes or sexual assault.
They have obtained about 250 signatures on the petition, which they started last weekend. If they obtain 1,000 signatures by April 1, the policy proposal will be put to a student body referendum during Student Senate elections next month. If the student body votes for the policy, Caldwell and Backs will present it to the administration for approval.
Caldwell said he initiated the petition drive in response to a national phenomenon in white<sup>b</sup>
hate crime assailants were not prosecuted. Because federal law about hate crimes was so vague, he said, only individuals who inflicted bodily harm or property damage were convicted.
"How to determine what a hate crime is, is what makes the law so sticky," Caldwell said. "If a person is singled out or ridiculed because of the group they belong to, it's a bate crime."
He said that hate crimes at the University had been increasing but that it was difficult to rely on statistics because most hate crimes were not reported.
Last year, the KU Public Safety Office reported five hate crimes and three incidents of sexual assault.
Caldwell said he hoped a zero tolerance policy would encourage victims to report hate crimes or sexual assault.
"It's definitely a problem," he said. "I've gone to parties with friends that were women, and after the party they said someone raped or sexually assaulted them. Someone grabbed them and took them into a bedroom and tried to get them to do

Underwater search team recovers stolen car from Kansas River
Bv Katie Burford
By Katie Bortora
kburford@kansan.com
The Douglas County Sheriff's Underwater Search and Recovery Team donned its dry suits yesterday morning to retrieve a stolen car deposited in the Kansas River.
Kansan staff writer
The car was rolled into the water sometime last week by a Lawrence man, Sgt. George Wheeler of the Lawrence Police Department said.
The man told police that he rolled one of the cars, a 1984 Chevrolet Caprice, into the Kansas River, prompting the recovery team's effort.
The 20-year-old man was arrested Monday at 4:47 p.m. in the 700 block of Connecticut Street. The car was stolen from the 800 block of Connecticut
Street. Police have connected him with the theft of four vehicles stolen in Lawrence since Friday.
"River diving is probably the most dangerous," said Fire Marshal Rich Barr of the Douglas County Fire and Medical department.
Before to stepping down from his position as team coordinator in January, Barr had been with the team since its inception in the late 1970s.
Volunteers from the Lawrence Police Department, the KU Public Safety
Office and the Douglas County Sheriff's Office make up the team. The team is operated through the Douglas County Sheriff's Office, which provides $9,000 annually to operate the team.
Although the recovery effort began about 10 a.m., it was not until 4 p.m. that the car was wrenched out of the muddy river bottom.
"The car wasn't sunk too far, but it had drifted 100 feet down from where we originally thought it would be," said Capt. Bill Shepard of the Douglas County Sheriff's Office, who oversaw the recovery effort.

Refrigerator-size box found near museum
A box the size of a refrigerator was found in front of the Spencer Museum of Art at 5 a.m. yesterday and caused some alarm, said Chris Long, chief of security for the museum.
Museum staff were concerned because they weren't expecting a package that large, and the box had no return address, said Lt. Schuyler Bailey of the KU Public Safety Office.
An examination of the box proved it to be harmless, he said.
Long said the box contained a small metal sculpture.
"Who knows why the individual decided to deliver it in such an unusual manner," he said.

Law book sale to offer low-priced materials
KU law students who hope to enlarge their personal libraries will find many books to choose from at the Hazel Anderson Memorial Book Sale, which will be held from 8:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. today at the Law School commons in Green Hall.
Greene said their prices were generally $1.00 for a hardback and 50 cents for a paperback.
The Law Library staff plans to sell donated books and withdrawals from the collection, said Katherine Greene, acquisitions manager at the Law Library.
"Basically, it's a token payment," she said. "You can get a great book for very little money."
Greene also said the prices would be reduced at noon to clear out leftover materials.
Some of this year's sale books are various editions of Black's Law Dictionary, casebooks and a partial set of The University of Kansas Law Review.
The library also will sell a few non legal books such as "Wonderful Old Lawrence"
by Elfriede Fischer Rowe and a book of John Donne's poetry and prose.

Senate fills empty spots with new senators
Student Senate chose five replacement senators last night to fill spaces left open by senators who had resigned or were permanently suspended for excessive absences.
Trevor Loney, Nevada, Mo., sophomore, will fill the Nunemaker senator seat. Eric Rush, Topeka sophomore, was picked as the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences senator. Greg Smith, Olathe junior, will fill the off-campus senator position. Nick Bartkoski, Basehor senior, was selected as the journalism senator. And Arthur Yudelson, Lawrence senior, will fill the non-traditional senator seat
J. D. Jenkins, Nunemaker senator and member of the selection committee, said although only a few Senate meetings were left before elections, the replacement senators would still be able to get involved.
Some of the replacement senators also plan to be senatorial candidates in next month's elections.
"At least they'll get the hang of what's going on," he said. "That way they won't have that adjustment period next year if they run again."

Unspent welfare money sparks Congress debate
WASHINGTON — Unspent welfare money totaling billions of dollars is proving tempting to some in Congress who want to reclaim the cash windfall from the states.
It's causing a fight among Republicans who want the money for disaster relief and education, and others who argue they must keep promises made during the welfare debate three years ago and let states spend as they see fit.
Americans have left the welfare rolls more quickly than anyone predicted, leaving states with extra money not spent on welfare checks. A strong economy helped people find jobs, and tougher rules discouraged people from staying on assistance.
But the amount the federal government gives to states was based on earlier years when caseloads were much higher. Under the 1996 federal welfare overhaul, a total of $16.5 billion is put in federal accounts earmarked for states each year. Many states have saved the money in case the economy turns down, and many say it will be needed to provide more intensive services for welfare recipients who need the most help getting off welfare.

European Commission resignations cause worry
BRUSSELS, Belgium — European leaders scrambled yesterday to plug the hole left by the abrupt resignation of the entire 20-member European Commission after a stinging report of fraud and sloppy management.
The dramatic overnight departure of the European Union's executive body plunged the bloc into its deepest crisis in decades, just days ahead of a crucial summit to overhaul EU finances in preparation for its expansion into Eastern Europe.
German Chancellor Gerhard Schroeder, whose country holds the EU's current presidency, flew to Brussels for talks with outgoing Commission President Jacques Santer on how to minimize the damage.
Santer said he and the 19 other commissioners will stay on in a caretaker capacity until their successors are appointed, but the resignations and revelations of high-level malpractice left the EU in disarray.
The mass departure was unprecidented in the 42-year history of the EU — roughly equivalent to the entire U.S. Cabinet resigning.

Backs said the University needed to take immediate action to decrease hate crimes.
"Firm, strict legislation pertaining to these violent, prejudiced crimes needs to be set in stone for everyone to see and know," she said. "With a zero tolerance policy in place, people will know that these crimes will not be ignored."
Caldwell said some students were hesitant to sign the petition because they were critical of new legislation with punitive measures that may infringe upon freedom of speech or civil rights.
"There's a huge trend to be speculative about new legislation that has filtered down even away from the legislative scene," he said. "But we shouldn't be hesitant to attach汁measures where they're needed."

Diving team works to recover vehicle
Continued from page 1A
water depth where the vehicle was found was 12 feet.
The car was located using a wooden staff to search the river bottom. Then a diver had to go down to attach a tow line to the car.
While the diver is below water, another fully outfitted diver, called a safety, is in the boat to assist in case anything goes wrong, Barr said. Because the team uses dry suits with full face masks, drivers are able to communicate with one another and people on the surface.
Barr said communication was vital because visibility in the swift moving river water was zero.
Sgt. Rose Rozmiarek of the KU Public Safety Office was one of the divers serving as a safety during the operation.
During the past several years the team has been called out to search for a Winnebago, the body of a man who drowned after falling through ice and a boat.
"The team has to weigh the costs and benefits of a recovery effort," Barr said. "If the water is extremely swift and the search is for a car, then there is really no benefit. It's a little different with a person."
Police said that they would notify the owner of the Caprice that the car had been recovered, although for the time being, it would remain in police custody. Edited by J.C. Weierstrass

City could lift Barbwire restrictions
Space may include more than retail, food establishments
By Heather Woodward hwwoodward@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
When the Barbwire Building, 8 E. Sixth St., opens, possibly later this year, it may include more than coffee and artisan shops on its second level.
who leases the Barb wire Building from the city, said he would restrict the types of retail
As part of an agreement with Chelsea G.L.A., owners of the Riverfront Mall, Mike Elwell,

and food establishments in the building so it would not create excess competition for the mall. The two properties are next to each other.
Because Riverfront L.L.C. plans to purchase the Riverfront Mall property, it would step into the existing contract.
The city previously had restrictions on the lease that stated the space could only be used for food and retail.
Elwell said at last night's Lawrence City Commission meeting that he would like restrictions lifted from his property because the new owners of the mall may include more than just retail.
Riverfront L.L.C. requested at a previous commission meeting that it be allowed to include more than just retail at the Riverfront Mall, with the exception of sexually oriented entertainment and gambling.
"Certain restrictions have the capacity to be a problem down the line," Elwell said, "and I would like those restrictions dropped because they leave me in limbo."
Riverfront L.L.C. plans to close the sale of the Riverfront Mall with Chelsea on Monday.
Elwell has leased the building from the city since 1990. He said he planned to have a stage and bar in the downstairs area of the building with access on both levels to the Kansas River. John Nalbandian, commissioner and professor of public administration, said he thought Elwell's request was reasonable.
"The Riverfront Mall having only retail and food services, as I see it, that's changed." Nalbantian said at the meeting. "So then those restrictions should no longer be placed on him."
Bill Newsome, who represented Riverfront L.L.C. at the meeting, said he would organize a meeting today to negotiate the restrictions with Elwell. He said he would like to have input from city officials.
"It's been a very complicated closing," said Newsome at the meeting about the negotiations with Chelsea. "Those issues just have not come to the top of the list. At the time we created the contract, we were unaware that this document even existed."
Also at the commission meet.

Health event is chance to share experiences
Bv T.J. Johnson
By 1.5. Johnson
tjohnson@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
About 100 college health care providers will be at the University this week to participate in the annual Central College Health Association Conference.
The conference began last night with an openhouse tour and dinner at Watkins Memorial Health Center.
Gaye Homer, laboratory manager at the University of Nebraska, said the annual conference was a way for college health care workers to network information and to share their experiences. She said this was especially true for health care workers from smaller universities.
"There are a variety of sizes of college health centers, from one-nurse to here on this campus with a very large health center," Homer said. "A lot of the people attending are single-nurse that maybe don't have access to a lot of educational materials themselves, so they get a lot of information while they're
here to assist them in helping the students in the smaller schools."
The conference also provides a chance for health care workers from all types of schools to interact.
"A lot of these nurses have to teach health to students and employees, so we try to give them as much information as they can use, and we take back what we can use from them," said Jody Woods, host director for the KU conference and Supervisor of Nursing at Watkins.
The conference will feature a wide variety of speakers from Watkins and the community on topics ranging from sports injuries to substance abuse treatment.
"This is a way to hear from a lot of speakers in a lot of different areas," Homer said. "They try to devise programming for anywhere from a single-nurse facility to a multi-departmental facility."
Woods said the group that organized the KU conference had looked at suggestions from participants in past conferences to form a lineup of speakers in the most requested areas.
She said she sent information about the conference to virtually every college, university and community college in a three-state area to give them a chance to participate.
"We have two schools coming in for the first time," Woods said. "And this is the first year where we will have four representatives from community colleges."
Woods said the conference was an opportunity for all school health programs to learn something, not just those from smaller universities. Large university health programs may seem impressive to people from smaller universities, but they have their own shortcomings, she said.
"We look like a 'tin god' to them, but in comparison we get to talk to K-State, Nebraska and Missouri and they have problems too," Woods said. "It's really to lay a framework and to get people to know each other."
The conference will continue until Friday at the Holiday Inn Holidome, 200 McDonald Drive.

Some KU students who pack their bags for spring break vacation will have to include hammers, nails and gear for construction work.
"You get to see a new place and life from a different perspective," he said. "It's doing something for the community."
Troy Fowler, Lawrence senior, said that participating in the spring break trip was a learning experience for students.
Members of the University's chapter of Habitat for Humanity will travel to Denver to build a house for the organization, which provides affordable housing to low-income families.
The group will leave Saturday and will travel by car to Denver. Fowler said it wouldn't be all work for

the participants. He said that they would spend Sunday and Monday exploring the town or skiing in the Rocky Mountains.
Fowler said it would take four days to build the Denver house. They will spend Tuesday through Friday putting the house together.
Getting a habitat
- Families must be in need of simple, decent and affordable housing.
- Families must be willing to complete 250-500 hours of working on Habitat for Humanity projects.

Habitat for Humans
- Families must be able to demonstrate the ability to repay the no-interest mortgage.
"Habitat is very hands-on," said Jennifer Polk, Habitat for Humanity International special projects coordinator. "You can see your results immediately."
Polk said more than 8,000 students across the nation would participate in Habitat for Humanity Collegiate Challenge, which is a program organizing spring break building trips.
She said 400 different organizations at campuses across the nation were participating, including groups from Kansas State University and the University of Missouri.
Polk said that this was the 10th year for the Collegiate Challenge and that the number of program participants had increased each year. She said this year there were 1,000 more participants in the program.
"There is more social awareness," she said. "Students are able to see their ability to make a difference in such a short time frame."
Fowler said that there were six KU students going on the trip but that three spots remained open. He encouraged students who were interested in the trip to contact him at habitat@raven.co.ukans.edu.
Builders will pay $110 to participate in the Denver project. Fowler said that this covered registration and insurance fees and a donation to the Denver chapter of Habitat for Humanity.

Non-smoking lounge opens in Lawrence to offer students a second wind
Special to the Kansan
As the voices of the crowd filter out the door of the West Coast Saloon, 2222 Iowa St., and into the parking lot, the recently opened bar next door remains silent and empty.
the owners of Second Wind, a nonsmoking lounge, admit they are taking a risk with their business venture, which began early this semester. It is the only smoke-free bar in Lawrence.
Bob Greunwald, owner, said his partner, Shaun Trenholm, who is a former University of Kansas track team member, developed the idea.
"He knows a lot of guys who run, and they've all complained that they like to go out, but they don't like to go into
bars where it's real smoky," Greunwald said.
Both men also own the adjoining West Coast Saloon.
Second Wind and West Coast Saloon customers have the same drink specials and menu available because the establishments share a kitchen.
Tim Schroba, Chicago senior and a part-time bartender at the West Coast Saloon, said he thought it would be difficult to have a successful non-smoking bar in Lawrence
"Smoking is so prevalent on college campuses and in the Midwest," Schroba said. "But I think it's an excellent idea."
Greunwald said he thought Second Wind opened doors to people who might not otherwise consider visiting
a bar.
Despite the good intentions,he said business at the smoke-free establishment has been spotty. On extremely slow nights,the bar simply closes early.
This is not surprising to Jeff Morrow, a KU business lecturer. He said the number of students who smoke in Lawrence is shocking.
"It surprises me how many young people smoke around here," Morrow said. "You know what it says to me? 'Ignorant.' I wonder why in the world these people spend so much money on such a dangerous product."
Morrow said that when he was the owner of The Crossing, 618 W. 12th St., he cut a hole in the roof to let the cigarette smoke escape.
"There is no way a cigarette can be contained inside a building," he said. "If one person smokes, everyone in the building is touched by the smoke."
Morrow said he thought very few bar owners had the nerve to take the risk involved in making their establishments non-smoking environments.
"I think government intervention will be necessary in creating more smoke-free environments," he said.
Morrow said that it was illegal to smoke in public spaces in California.
California's smoke-free workplace law took effect in 1995. Bars and nightclubs, however, were not required to become smoke-free until 1997, and the tobacco industry successfully promoted an amendment to delay implementation of the law until 1998.
"If people absolutely must indulge themselves in a cigarette, they can go outside." Morrow said.
Whether Second Wind will succeed in Lawrence has yet to be seen, and Greunwald is aware that it may not.
"I think it's kind of like cigar bars," he said. "Right now it's just a niche, but if people want it, there will be at least one in the area to go to."
The non-smoking lounge is scheduled to be open Wednesday through Friday from 5 p.m. to midnight and on Saturday from noon to 2 a.m.
Although the tobacco industry has made attempts to have the law delayed, it was defeated in 1988, and all indoor public establishments in California are now smoke-free.

KU Mock Trial Team to compete with little help from University
A University of Kansas team will compete in the National Tournament of the American Mock Trial Association next month with little help from the school that it is representing.
The KU Mock Trial Team, which has qualified for the national competition for the second year in a row, not only has to prepare for the competition but also has to raise or contribute the $1,200 needed to attend.
Team members hope to raise the needed money this week by having students fill out credit card applications on Wescoe Beach today and tomorrow.
The original Mock Trial budget, which has little money left after a season of competition, came from the Kansas Bar Association and donations from law firms.
The team must find alternate ways to finance its trip because of a depleted budget.
The team has been denied funding by Student Senate and the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences. In addition, the team has petitioned unsuccessfully several student organizations such as Phi Alpha Delta pre-law society and the Student Bar Association.
Fortunately the KU law school, which is not part of undergraduate studies, has offered to help with some travel expenses by paying for a van rental for the trip to Des Moines, Iowa.
where the competition will be held. State Rep. Barbara Ballard, D-Lawrence, and State Rep. Troy Findley, D-Lawrence, have proposed legislation that would give state recognition to the team, yet the University offers no assistance.
A team that competes in a national competition brings prestige to the University. The University should recognize and support such teams.
KU Mock Trial Team members have worked hard and have put in many hours of practice to make it to this level. It is unfair that they now face the possible situation of having to pay their own way as well.
Students can do what the University has not by taking the time to fill out a credit card application this week.

Racial comments not joke material
Freedom of speech is one of the many rights that U.S. citizens cherish. In some instances, the line is crossed, and it becomes apparent that certain people do not have the capability of using this freedom responsibly. An example happened recently in Washington, D.C.
Doug "Greaseman" Tracht, a disc jockey in the D.C. area, was fired from his job because of a highly inappropriate and tasteless remark. After a song by African-American singer Lauryn Hill played, Tracht quipped, "No wonder people drag them behind trucks."
The remark was in reference to a gruesome murder in Texas. In that case, John William King was convicted and sentenced to death for dragging James Byrd, an African-American man, to his death behind a pickup truck. Given the violent circumstances
A radio station should have fired a disc jockey before he made two offensive remarks.
of Byrd's murder, this remark went beyond being tasteless.
Tracht was not a first time offender, which is one of the reasons why he was fired. With a debate raging on his show about whether Martin Luther King Jr. Day should be a holiday, Tracht said that if four more African Americans were killed, people in the country might be given a full week off.
Tracht was not fired for this first offense, but he did apologize. Obviously, this apology was lacking sincerity.
CNN program Both Sides. Tracht apologized profusely and claimed to be a loving man. Tracht wants to apologize to African Americans across the country, and he also wants to reach out to his former listeners to let them know that what he said was not funny and that it was wrong.
Now Tracchi is on an apology tour, and he recently anounced on Jesse Jackson's
Tracht thinks he should be able to get another job on air to spread his message. At this point, it is hard to believe anyone would believe anything coming from Tracht's lips.
The radio station deserves applause for firing Tracht, a popular disc jockey. Such a turgid display of racism should not be tolerated. One only hopes that Tracht means his apologies and can somehow help alleviate much of the racial hatred that still exists in this country.

Asian-American issues deserve equal attention
In late February, a swastika was burned onto the door of an Asian-American resident of Oliver Hall. The vandalism was duly reported in the media, but elicited few cries of public indignation and ratred.
plain indignation and rated only a pallid official response.
The KU Public Safety Office was loath to judge it a hate crime, and the Department of Student Housing was quick to label it as a "random event." A flaming wastakia, we were assured, was just another isolated act of vandalism. That threatening act was directed against an Asian American, so they tell us, was accidental and inconsequential, and did not reflect racial hatred.
Perspective
Regrettably, such indifference to anti-Asian racism extends far beyond Mount Oread. A few weeks ago, actor Matthew McConaughey spoke blithely of "fightin' Japs from World War II" during an appearance on The Rosie O'Donnell Show. The audience did not react negatively to this slur, and neither did O'Donnell. Demands for an apology from the Media Action Network for Asian Americans fell on deaf ears. Apparently, even in an age when the word "niggardly" has been condemned as racially offensive, the degrading term "Japs" still is considered acceptable.
Indeed, our society — including this campus — appears in denial when it comes to discrimination against Asian Americans. We tend to think of Americans of Asian descent as an over-achieving model minority; highly educated, successful professionally and well-integrated into mainstream American culture. Against this background, it's easy to dismiss anti-Asian racism as isolated, irrelevant or somehow less disturbing than prejudice toward other groups. It also is easy to forget that not all bigotry is as overt as a burning swastika.
A month ago, Chancellor Hemenway graciously conducted a reception for the Asian-American Student Union. It was an enjoyable event, casual, festive, and well-attended by students and administrators. A series of speakers praised diversity and told the crowd how important Asian Americans are to the University. But free-flowing punch and heartfelt speeches could not disguise one fact: All the students at the gathering may have been Asian American, but none of the University staff in attendance were.
As Asian Americans have begun to make their mark in business, medicine and academics, discrimination has become more subtle and increasingly institutionalized. A quiet, backhanded, almost invisible form of prejudice — which demeans Asian Americans with thoughtless insensitivity, slighting disregard and a tenacious "glass ceiling" in employment — now is deeply rooted in American society. And its insidious presence is apparent even here at the University of Kansas.
I wrote the chancellor in 1966 about this apparently systematic exclusion of Asian Americans from University-wide search committees. The chancellor responded that the composition of such bodies was determined not by race, but by the personal accomplishments and experience of potential members. While applauding the chancellor's stand for qualifications above tokenism, I was struck by the implications of his position. Are none of the dozens of Asian-American faculty or hundreds of Asian-American students on this campus really qualified to sit on such prominent committees? Are we Asian Americans at KU truly so unimpressive and untrustworthy?
I suppose we must be because Strong Hall so thoroughly is devoid of Asian-American faces. There are no Asian Americans in the upper ranks of the University bureaucracy and, even in middle management, you can count the Asian-American administrators on the fingers of one hand. None of the deans on the Lawrence campus and no department chairs in CLAS are Asian American. Soberingly, there aren't even any Asian-American administrative staff at the Office of Minority Affairs, the Multicultural Resource Center or the Equal Opportunity Office.
In 1996, the University conducted high-profile job searches for two crucial officials, the Provost and the dean of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences. Blue-ribbon search committees of faculty, staff and students were appointed to screen the candidates. Reflecting the diversity of our campus, both committees appropriately included Hispanic and African-American members. Yet strikingly, neither committee included anyone of
Asian descent. No Asian Americans were selected as finalists in these two important searches.
The University is recruiting a new dean of libraries, another pivotal administrative position. Predictably and dishearteningly - this search committee also lacks even a single Asian American member.
What message does all this send to Asian Americans in our community? A hate crime is greeted with incredulity and denial. The University administration talks a good line but consistently slights Asian Americans in major committee appointments. The University officially embraces diversity, yet it has no room for Asian Americans in Strong Hall.
Perhaps Asian Americans, as a "model minority," should just grin and bear it, enduring affronts with silent resignation. But we deserve better, both from the dominant culture and from the powers-that-bat at the University of Kansas. Only by speaking out can we Americans of Asian descent ever hope to gain the understanding and the respect that we so fully deserve.

Director's talent ignored in debate about politics
Director Elia Kazan will accept an honorary Oscar, but don't expect one of the usual 10-minute standing ovations. I wouldn't be the least surprised if the Hollywood liberals start hurling rotten tomatoes at the 89-year-old filmmaker.
Sunday's Oscar telecast promises only one genuine moment of drama, but it has nothing to do with which star will take home a trophy.
I will help you with the transcription of the image. The text in the image is:
"WHERE IS THE GAME TO GO?"
Please let me re-read the text to ensure it is accurate. It says "WHERE IS THE GAME TO GO?" and there is no other visible text.
Kazan has been a persistent thorn in Hollywood's side for decades. In 1952, at the height of Sen. Joseph McCarthy's Communist witchhunts, Kazan named names during testimony before the House Uus-Ameri-
Jeremy Doherty opinion @ kansan.com
can Activities Committee, and his words later led to the blacklisting of eight of his Hollywood colleagues.
Hostility against Kazan persists, even though he extracted career-best performances from Marlon Brando and James Dean, and directed some of the key films of the 1950s, such as On the Waterfront. Kazan's style pushed actors to give more full, more realistic performances, but his enemies will not give Kazan his due. Many of those enemies will be sitting on their hands at the ceremony. And yes, some in the crowd undoubtedly will jeer his name.
Already, the Pulitzer Prize-winning Roger Ebert has said he will observe the clapping and booing with interest come Oscar night.
"I will be doing neither: just watching silently," the critic said in a column published last week. I'm amazed at the wishy-washiness of these words, spoken by someone who prides himself on being opinionated.
Me, I'm not going to straddle the fence or "watch silently" like the ever-civilized Ebert; I am going to cheer for Kazan. I may even toast his health as he collects his richly deserved award.
The question here boils down to whether we ought to separate Kazan's art from his politics.
ought to separate him from members of the Hollywood left, particularly some of the blacklisted writers affected by Kazan's testimony, insist that his art and his politics cannot be separated. They say that Kazan's testimony destroyed careers and lives and that giving him an honorary Oscar — in addition to
Kazan's foes are giving the Oscar folks far too much credit — both for their political savvy and their intelligence.
Their sense of politics is even worse, as evidenced by the stars who spout their lame political causes on the yearly telecast.
Norma Barzman, screenwriter of 1953's Luxury Girls, certainly thinks so and wasted no time blasting Kazan at a Writers Guild of America press conference last week.
Five years ago, Richard Gere commandeered the program and demanded that the billion viewers send telepathic messages of peace and love to Chinese leader Deng Xiaping. The loopy speech was capped with Gere's repeated chant of "Send this thought out, send this thought."
"His lifetime achievement is great films and destroyed lives," the blacklisted writer said to a Variety reporter. "I'm not going to forgive him."
The average member of the voting Academy toils in Hollywood on movies such as *Waterworld* and *Bride of Chucky*. The members' sense of what constitutes an artistically valid film is absurd.
In short, it plainly is stupid to believe that an Oscar for Kazan amounts to disrespect to those harmed by McCarthyism. The Oscars are a racket — a popularity contest that allows the studios to pat themselves on the back for making one another richer. This year, the studio Miramax has spent more than $15 million on its awards campaign for Shakespeare in Love — more than twice what it spent to make Pulp Fiction in 1994.
Such whining. Kazan didn't destroy lives. McCarthyism did. Kazan thought he was doing the right thing in testifying.
Warren Beatty, also speaking at the Writers Guild conference last week, has demonstrated the correct attitude to take regarding Elia Kazan.
the two directing trophies he has collected in the past -- implies an endorsement of those actions
"Ella Kazan taught me more than anyone else about making movies," Beatty said. "He's someone that I love and whose work I respect."
The pointless anger against Kazan already cost him career recognitions from the American Film Institute and the Los Angeles Film Critics Association in recent years. He doesn't need the Oscar Sunday night; his films will be studied and enjoyed for years to come.
But we should not waste this opportunity to pay respect to his talent.

Graduate group upset about Senate budgets
Increase in organizations prompts cuts to programs
By Nadia Mustafa
nmustafa@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Members of the Graduate and Professional Association are upset that Student Senate may decrease their funding for next year by $2,000.
After about 60 hours of hearings and deliberation that began last October, the Senate Finance Committee will submit a budget bill to Senate today outlining the allocation of $660,614 to student organizations for the next academic year.
GPA was the only group that expressed concern about the funding cuts at the Finance Committee meeting Last Wednesday.
GPA applied for $116,000 but received only $81,000, which was $2,000 less than its previous block allocation two years ago.
"There are 6,000 graduate students at KU who pay a lot more than what they get back," Mazumdar said. "Undergraduates control Senate, and the Finance Committee is made up almost entirely of undergraduates."
Dede Seibel, Finance Committee chairwoman and Nunemaker senator, said that no group had received as much funding as it requested.
She said the committee, composed of 20 senators and other students, had cut funding from previous block allocations for all but seven groups.
She said the amount of funding available through the Student Senate Activity Fee remained the same, but four additional groups requested funding.
"There was a lot of penny pinching and cutting from groups that definitely need funding." Seibel said. "Funds are so tight through that process."
She said she was concerned that Hilltop Child Development Center, which was created by Senate in 1978 and now has plans for expansion, received only $25,000.
"It's hard when a group has been around for 22 years, and we can't even fund them when they need it," Seibel said.
She said that even a $1 increase in the Student Sonate Activity Fee would be
helpful but that Senate did not want to increase student fees.

Some of the largest allocations were $125,000 to the Lied Center so students would receive discounted tickets,
$90,000 in administrative costs to Senate,
$65,000 to KU Bands and $59,000 to University Theatre.
To receive block allocation funding, a group must provide a tangible benefit to the KU community, show continuing viability as an organization, be financed by Senate for at least three years before its request and prove its need for two-year funding.
Senate has $15,900 remaining in its unallocated account for student organizations that request funding before March 31.
Scholarship hall residents are invited to attend the Senate meeting today at 6:30 p.m. at the Alderson Auditorium in the Kansas Union. Mike Schindler, All Scholarship Hall Council president, will speak about the needs and concerns of scholarship hall residents.

KU women chemical engineer numbers rising
By Jennifer Roush
jroush@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
For two years, the University of Kansas' department of chemical engineering has had a higher percentage of women engineering graduates than the national average.
In 1998, 46 percent of chemical engineering degrees awarded at the University went to women, and in 1997 the number was 40 percent. The national average for those two years was 33 percent.
Don Green, department chairman, said more women were attracted to the department because of their interest in chemistry.
The department is able to attract women for a variety of reasons, Green said. The combination of good undergraduate scholarships and the recruitment of qualified women and a faculty
He said chemical engineering also offered options such as a pre-med program and biomedical and environmentalengineering.
of 13—which will include three women by fall 1999—has made chemical engineering more popular for women considering the University.
Green also said women had been active and involved in the department. For the past two years, the president of the American Institute of Chemical Engineers student chapter has been a woman.
"Women are leaders in the department, and that helps us attract other women." Green said.
He also said the department had a reputation for excellence, which was demonstrated by the three Goldwater scholarships that were awarded to KU chemical engineering students in Spring 1998. Two of those scholarships went to women.
She said that, nationally, more women wanted to become chemical engineers.
Marylee Southard, faculty adviser for the Society of Women Engineers, said the numbers were part of a long-term trend.
Janel Harting. Derby senior, agreed
and said that she entered the engineering school because she wanted to go into medicine.
"I was looking at med school, and I wanted a degree that would cover a lot of things," Harting said.
She said that although the University's chemical engineering department had more women than the national average, she didn't think they had been singled out for special treatment.
"They treat us the same, and I'd rather have it that way," Harting said.
Larissa Lee, also a Derby senior and president of the American Institute of Chemical Engineers student chapter, said she chose chemical engineering because she wanted to attend medical school and didn't want a typical major.
"I'm pre-med, but I didn't want to be just another biology major," she said.
another biology major," she said. Lee also said that she felt comfortable as a chemical engineering student at the University.
"There's good recruitment,good faculty and good support from the department." she said.

By Matt Cox Kansan music critic
If anyone wasn't sick of Alanis before the concert, they definitely were after.
Alanis Morissette stopped in Kansas City at Kemper Arena on Monday on her Junkie Tour with Garbage.
The show was exhaustive even though she didn't play two of her best songs, Joining You and Head Over Feet. She played for two hours.
Junkie. The response from the audience was getting forced and
sang eight of her 10 radio singles (yes, she has that many) and dragged an audience made up mostly of 14-year-old females
through two encores.
One waited a good two minutes for the first encore before coming back out and milked the audience dry of their cheers. Her first encore song was *Thank U*, a boring, four-minute journey of her thanks toward people, countries and personified nouns.
weary.
Other low points of the evening included Alanis displaying her flute skills — or lack thereof. During a slower but very musically and lyrically endearing That I Would Be Good, she began and ended with a flute solo that was out of tune with the band. It sounded absolutely wretched and kept the well-written song from shining.
ALANIS MORISSETTE LIVE AT KEMPER ARENA Rating :C-
One of her best songs, You Outta Know, was ruined by making the
To end her first encore she sang Ironic, a catchy tune where she misleads the youth of America by giving horrible examples of irony that are just bummers and not ironic. The music was played well and powerfully, though.
She lost almost half of the arena by the second encore but still came out to sing two songs from her new album, Supposed Former Infatuation
first two verses and choruses slow and unplugged-like. The last chorus rocked like the album, but a few fans couldn't get
into it because the song took too long to go getting.
Also, the guitars weren't as loud as they should have been, and it took the punch out of her radio hits such as You Learn, Right Through You, and Hand In My Pocket.
The pinnacle came during You Learn. At the end of the song while the band was finishing up, she threw the microphone down and twirled around on stage while hopping and convulsing. It was pathetically amusing. However, the middle schoolers seemed to really identify with it.
There were some highlights, though
Uninvited, her most innovative
song, sounded incredible in an arena. Her voice filled the place with a cold but fitting atmosphere. This was complemented with exquisite instrumentation by drums and the bass guitar.
The other main highlight was her song Are You Still Mad, a subtle, sweet, almost adult contemporary

song that displays a repeated, catchy piano solo with an arousing array of vocals from Morissette. It was moving.

Overall the concert had more presence than her albums, but the quirks were disappointing and her encores took too long.

European store gives flavor, diverse choice to Lawrence
By Kelly Clasen Special to the Kansan
Lora Duguid was studying abroad in France during her junior year at the University when a store in the southern part of the country that sold American food caught her eye.
"I was really happy to see things like peanut butter and Dr. Pepper," she said.
Duguid graduated from the University of Kansas in 1995 with bachelor's degrees in both art history and French. Since then, she has turned her discovery in France of the popularity of imports into a new business venture downtown.
Her European market, au Marché, 19 W. Ninth St., which opened last August, specializes in the sale of imported European foods.
After returning to Lawrence, she said she became acquainted with the owners of Brits, 732 Massachusetts St., a store that offers a variety of British items.
surely, a store that makes Bits' britons Susie Pryor and Sally Helm asked Duguid if she would be interested in becoming a partner in the ownership of the new store they wanted to open, which became au Marche. The name of the store is French for "to the market."
"After graduation I had a number of jobs I didn't like very much, and I knew I wanted to keep French in my life in some way," she said. "I thought it was a great idea."
The small store offers a variety of items from nearly every country in Europe. Duguid said some of the best-selling items were the French cheeses, assorted chocolates and Orangina, a French soft drink
"In the beginning, the goods were pretty well distributed from all the countries," she said. "As more and more people come into the store, we get requests for things, and that has helped our German inventory grow immensely."
tory grew immerse in Christopher Baldridge, Little Rock, Ark., senior, said he first went to au Marché in August, shortly after returning from studying abroad in France. While walking through downtown Lawrence, cases of Orangina on the sidewalk outside au Marché caught his attention.
"I saw that, and it's a very French drink," he said,
"drank it all year, so I stopped in the store."
Baldridge, a linguistics major, now works part time at au Marché.
Dugaid said she thought the customers who came into the store appreciated the fact that Baldridge spoke a number of languages including French, Italian and some Greek.
"Lawrence is a great town for a store like this because it's very culturally diverse," she said. "I've been surprised to find out how many adult Europeans live in the area."
In addition to food items, the store also has imported porcelain dishes and European flags.

Architecture students in Gaylord Richardson's fifth-year studio design class have worked on numerous projects at the University of Kansas but none like this one.
Most of the design projects in the class have been purely hypothetical. But now students are getting the chance to contribute to a project that will be constructed.
The class is working alongside professional consultants to come up with its own alternative design schemes for the proposed $4 million Kansas Union renovation project.
The class won't create the plans used in the renovation, but it is another source from which to draw ideas. The project also is being used as an educational exercise to give the seniors in the class, so close to graduation, a taste of what to expect in the real world.
"The responsibility for the design
is with a professional firm," said Richardson, associate professor of architecture. "But we feel through programming and the development of design alternatives we can improve the quality of the renovation and hopefully raise the satisfaction levels of the use of the building."
Pat Beard, manager of building services, already has been satisfied with the students' input. For him, the direction for the project came together after the students' programming presentation to him and other Union personnel on Feb.15.
"It helped me quite a bit." Beard said. "I was very appreciative of what they've done."
This will be the second time Richardson has had a class involved in Union renovation plans. During the Union's Phase II renovation in 1992, former Union director Jim Long contacted Richardson about getting his classes involved.
"They came up with some ideas that were passed along to the architect," Long said. "A couple of the ideas there jumped out and became part of the project."
Before assuming his new position as assistant provost for planning and facilities management in January, Long asked Richardson to help out again on the current Phase III Union renovation.
Richardson's students have been busy with the project since the semester began. They interviewed other students and Union staff to identify the needs of those whom the renovation will benefit. Then came program reports, which put those needs into text and diagrams. Finally, their architectural design schemes turned those text and diagrams into building proposals
Students say the project has been more complex and more challenging
One of those ideas was the canopy sheltering the Union's northeast main entrance on Oread Avenue. It was designed by Gould Evens Architects, but the concept was inspired by Richardson's students.
Richardson said that putting together the program reports had sensitized his students to how difficult it can be to find design solutions.
In the midst of the project's challenges, Aaron Smith, Wichita senior, still sees the potential reward in the lasting impact he hopes their work will have.
"It's exciting," Smith said, "because we have the opportunity to influence the design of the Union in a real way."
"Until you get involved in it, you really don't understand it," Sapp said.

St. Patrick's Day
Irish ales big on St. Pat's
Meanwhile, Boulevard weighs in with its own seasonal brew
By Jamie Knodel
jknodel@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
W When green beer isn't authentic enough, many St. Patrick's Day celebrators fill their pints full of something truly Irish—imported beer.
An ocean away from Dublin's taverns and breweries, the sale of Irish beer dramatically increases every March 17. a local liquor store owner said.
"Sales go up considerably because everyone wants to be Irish," said Shelley Ayres, owner of Patterson Liquor, 846 Illinois St.
She said that her store sold Murphy's Irish Stout, Beamish Irish Stout and Harp Lager but that the biggest seller was Guinness Stout.
Many students said they planned on celebrating St. Patrick's Day by drinking Irish beer.
"I drink Guinness every St. Patrick's Day," Scott Gelb, St. Louis junior said. "It's the Irish way to spend the day."
Other students said they planned to celebrate St. Patrick's Day with domestic beverages.
"There are just too many Irish beers, and I won't drink it because I don't know anything about the selection," said Susan Vander May, Topeka senior.
G. Willikers Deli and Bar, 733 Massachusetts St., will serve both Guinness and Harp on tap starting at 9:30 am. The Hawk, 1340 Ohio St., also will offer specials on Guinness
Local bars also will be catering to those who desire to celebrate with imported beer.
Kansas City's Boulevard Brewing Co. brews a special Irish ale for the spring season.
Bob Sullivan, Boulevard's vice-president for marketing, said the company had been brewing the seasonal beer since 1990.
"It's our spring seasonal beer," he said. "We brewed it with the idea that St. Pat's day falls in that season."
bourveard Irish Ale is based on the red ales originally popularized in Ireland. Sullivan said this style of ale was not available in Ireland anymore because it had been replaced with darker beers such as Guinness
He also said the ale was full-bodied and had a subtle, toasty flavor and a rich, reddish hue.
Boulevard Irish Ale is available on draught and in bottles at most of Lawrence's dining establishments and liquor stores, Sullivan said.
Ayres said Boulevard Irish Ale was a good seller at her store.

Parade began as friendly dare
Bv Brian Baker
Special to the Kansan
Every St. Patrick's Day as Lawrence residents flock downtown to drink green beer and listen to Irish music, they are treated to the spectacle of the St. Patrick's Day parade rolling along Massachusetts Street.
It all began with a challenge.
The parade usually includes 70 to 120 floats, a bagpipe group from Kansas City and celebrities such as Miss Kansas.
It began with a challenge.
However, the parade itself is merely the culmination of a number of events, which have raised more than $113,000 for local charities during the past 11 years.
Wes Kabler, owner of the Flamingo Club, 501 N. 9th St., was talking with some friends about the need for a St. Patrick's Day parade in Lawrence.
Even though it snowed that day, the parade was a success. The organizers decided to donate their profits to the United Way, and they have continued to raise money for charities every year since.
"His friend said. 'If you can get a St. Patrick's Day parade, I'll ride a white horse in it,'" said Roger Browning, parade organizer. "So they found a white carousel horse, mounted it on a flatbed truck and had their first parade."

"We choose a different charity each year, focusing on children's charities in Douglas County," said Debi Drummet, parade organizer.
This year, the committee is raising money to build a special playground at the Brook Creek Learning Center.
The parade is just one of many fund-raising activities organized by the committee. A celebrity sports auction was held in late February at Liberty Hall, offering items such as Jaya basketballs and autographed Chiefs memorabilia. The auction, which raised more than $12,000 this year, is the most successful of the events.
The Shamrock Shuffle, an officially timed 5K run, was held the morning of March 13 on the river levee behind Johnny's Tavern.
"It is popular because it's the first run of the season," said Browning. "We usually have about 120 runners."
The winners are awarded with medals, plaques and a traditional Irish breakfast.
Several candidates are nominated for the St. Patrick's Day Queen, and they help with the fund-raising activities until the Queen is crowned the night before the parade. Usually there are many KU students among the candidates — but anyone can be nominated.
Other monetary sources such as a dart tournament at the Red Lyon and T-shirt sales, help to raise donations.
"We pray for Irish and hope for over 21." Browning joked.
The parade will begin at 1 p.m. today near South Park on 12th Street and proceeds north along Massachusetts Street across the river to the Flamingo.

St. Patrick's Day, like so many other holidays in our society, has morphed into a strange combination of tradition and modern ritual. Although it was once a day solely to celebrate the man who single-handedly converted Ireland to Catholicism, the day also has become a reason to party for Catholics and non-Catholics alike.
Father Jim Shaughnessy, a priest at Corpus Christi Catholic Church, 1100 Kasold Drive, said the holiday began as a way to commemorate a man who had brought the faith to Ireland and to celebrate during the Catholic holiday of Lent.
"It is a celebration of the faith coming to Ireland in 400 or 500 A.D.," Shaughnessy said. "It gives us the opportunity to reflect."
He said he thought the modern traditions had become overdone.
"In many ways the drinking is carried to the extreme," Shaughnessy said.
Mark Walker, Topeka junior and a practicing Catholic, said he thought the holiday still held an important religious meaning to him.
"It is really special within the church because St. Patrick converted an entire country to Catholicism," Walker said.
He said he thought the message of St. Patrick was important because he converted the people of Ireland not by force but by leading by good example through the way he lived his life. The teaching that St. Patrick gave to the Irish people was more effective because of his approach and his
explanations of church teachings, Walker said. He said that by converting the Irish in this way, St. Patrick had given them a strong foundation for their faith.
"Over the years they have had a reputation as a very strong Catholic country," Walker said.
From this religious base, St. Patrick's Day has become known for green beer and parades, drink specials and shamrocks.
Jeremy Neverve, owner of the Red Lyon Tavern, 944 Massachusetts St., said St. Patrick's Day represented one of the biggest business days of the year for his bar.
"It's definitely the busiest day of the year." Neverve said. "It's always a lot of fun."
The Red Lyon is taking more of a traditional Irish approach to the holiday, with baggie players and a Celtic band playing, while Irish stew and whisky is served.
Other local bars bypass the culture for a pure party experience. Dylan Mayor, manager at the Wagon Wheel Cafe, 1401 Ohio St., said the bar would be serving green beer all day, a modern St. Patrick's Day tradition in America.
"A party is a party." Walker said.
Chris Hess, Wichita junior and a practicing Catholic, said he found it amusing that St. Patrick's Day had become so party-oriented.
"I think it's kind of funny that a saint's day has turned into a drinking fest," Hess said.

St. Patrick's Day
Commentary
An Irish woman in Kansas. An interesting concept at any time, but when March 17 rolls around, strange thoughts surface. I've become used to the unusual questions — the seemingly naive inquiries.
"So do you have a Leprechaun?"
"Do you grown your own potatoes?"
"So do you have a Leprechaun?"
As any self-respecting person knows, if you take a Leprechaun outside Ireland, it shrivels up and dies.
Then, of course, there is the strange movement today in American youth to desperately claim some kind of heritage. If I had a dollar for every time someone said 'Oh, I'm Irish,' I would have roughly a hundred bucks. No matter how slim the association — "My mother's second-
cousin-twice-

or z."I haven't met

many laughs at the United States'
expense watching U.S. citizens dye a whole river green, parade elaborate floats down closed main streets and wave to the TV screens as they check to make sure that their green pantaloons, suspenders and hats are in place.
To the Irish I know it seems a confounded waste of energy and time time that could be better spent down the pub. Why waste an hour painting your face like a shamrock when the Guinness is going to wash it off anyway? (And believe me, if you are in Ireland and doing it properly, your face should be awash by the end of the night).
As for the practice of dyeing the holy drink itself the color of a fraternity toilet after a Saturday night, such sacrilege merely makes us shake our heads.
"Ah, those Yanks," is pityingly sighed in smoky rooms throughout the Emerald Isle. "They just don't get it. So whose round is next?"
Despite all my grumbling, however, I am looking forward to March 17th. I consider it my role — nay, my duty — to test the Guinness pumps of all reputable, and some not-so-reputable, drinking establishments of Lawrence. It's a hard job, but somebody's got to do it.

Downtown holiday celebration to offer prizes, drink specials
Leprechauns, good luck charms expected to give festival-goers taste of Ireland in Lawrence
By Anne Robertson Special to the Kansan
Traditional green beer, parade fans lining the streets, prize giveaways and quirky expressions seem to be the theme for this year's St. Patrick's Day celebration in downtown Lawrence — along with some great drink specials.
The big question for most students, though, is where to go for all this fun and what the best drink prices are.
Several establishments will have bands with an Irish flare, while others will give away prizes and other sorts of oddities such as leprechauns or luck charms.
Nick Vandeven, St. Louis, Mo., junior, said that where he went would have to depend on the drink options.
"Since there will be plenty of green beer floating around, my friends and I will probably go drink at the Red Lyon because they have the best selection of stouts," he said.
Some people are catching the spirit as well, opting for apparel or paraphernalia that could be considered off beat.
"I have this button that says 'Irish Whiskey makes me frisky,'" Casey Adams, Raytown, Mo., junior said. "I got the button when my high school senior class skipped and went to the downtown Kansas City parade by Bartle Hall. I think it's kind of funny, and it's been sitting in my drawer all of this time, and I've never really had an occasion to wear it. So, I thought I'd bring it out."

Wearing of the green rooted in superstition
Colorful tradition now more common here than in Emerald Isle
By Kate Williams Special to the Kansan
Chances are that every kid who has gone through elementary school in the United States knows the consequence of not wearing green on St. Patrick's Day: black and blue arms.
While the avoidance of frenzied pinching is the motivation for many who wear green on March 17, the superstitions associated with the color and the holiday go much deeper.
Legend has it that St. Patrick had a hard time convincing the people in Ireland of the existence of the
Holy Trinity, according to http://www.canoe.ca/StPatricks/patrick.html. To prove his point, he plucked a shamrock from the ground and pointed to its three leaves. Since then, green has come to be associated with St. Patrick's Day because it is the color of the shamrock, the color symbolizing the start of spring and a national color of Ireland.
Wearing green serves as a way for the Irish and those of Irish descent to show their unity and bring themselves good luck. The tradition of pinching those who do not take part was most likely invented by creative schoolchildren looking for another way to torment their classmates.
St. Patrick's Day, in the American holiday tradition, is celebrated enthusiastically and flamboyantly, and the lavishey use of green is a sign
of this. In Chicago, the Chicago River is dyed green. In New York, the center stripe down Fifth Avenue is painted green for the annual parade.
Jenna Brill, Kansas City, Mo. freshman, said she remembered going all out in the past.
i used to wear green everything — boxers with shamrocks on them and green tights underneath and then green sparkles in my hair," she said.
This year though, Brill said, she might not be so elaborate.
"I'll probably just wear a green sweatshirt or something," she said.
"It seems like it was just a bigger deal when you were little."
In Ireland, the home of St. Patrick, wearing so much green is not so traditional. Aine Francis, Columbia, Mo., graduate student who is originally from an area near
Dublin, noted the difference between the way the two cultures celebrated.
"In Ireland, it is common for people to wear a real shamrock pinned onto their lapel," she said. "I think it is kind of crazy the way Americans celebrate, but it's neat that they are proud of their heritage."
Beate Gandrud, Munich, Germany, freshman, had not heard of the holiday before she came to the United States.
"I think the whole green thing is funny, but I'll probably wear it anyway, just for the fun of it," Gandrud said.
"You'll get pinched if you don't," warned Lindsey Killiany, Kansas City, Mo., freshman.
"Oh, yes, then," Gandrud said.
"I'll definitely wear it."

St. Paddy's Day green and beer mean 'disgust' for one student
There's one question I must answer just about every time I open my mouth to talk and people hear my accent. Every person I meet asks where I'm from.
Maybe the fact I'm from Northern Ireland makes my nationality harder for people to place. Nobody here seems to know much about my country — let alone recognize its accent.
When I say I live near Belfast, people immediately ask, 'Aren't you all communists over there?' Or, 'Oh, isn't that where they all fight?'
I explain how I've never seen a bomb explode or a
I explain how I've never seen a gun shot and that I feel much safer on the streets back home than I do here.
Next, people want me to be the stereotypical "Irish" person. They'll ask if I like horses, if I live on a farm, if it's difficult for me speaking English and if I know any Lenechauns.
People can't believe I don't like Guinness Beer, and they are astounded when I inform them that I don't even drink beer. Apparently this is an outrageous sin for an "Irish" person.

When they find out my favorite
color is yellow, I'm often asked why it's not green. Am I looking forward to the St. Patrick's Day celebrations?
Quite frankly, no.
In Northern Ireland, I never have celebrated the holiday.
I'll be spending the day as if it were any other typical Wednesday. And if anyone bothers to wish me "Happy Saint Patrick's Day," I'll probably stare them in the face with a look of disgust.
Please don't misunderstand my lack of enthusiasm for the American celebration of St. Patrick. It is not an indication of my lack of respect for the good man himself. Truthfully, I've got a lot of appreciation for St. Patrick. He brought Christianity to my homeland, and for that I admit we owe him thanks. However, I have my suspicions that the dear old Saint may not have approved of his namesake holiday being turned into a "National Public Pub Day," in Ireland or the United States.
I know I may sound a bit touchy, but after almost seven months in this country, my tolerance level is wearing a wee bit thin. I hate this bitter, cynical feeling I have toward each of you who claim to have Irish roots.
But trust me, my cynicism didn't come to me merely by a lucky charm. Most people I quiz don't even know whether their great great great ancestors came from Northern or Southern Ireland. And yet they say, "Oh, I'm Irish too, you know."
Really, I'm only a misunderstood, shy little Irish girl, feeling lost in the middle of America somewhere. I can barely comprehend that the state of Kansas has a third more people than my entire country.
Being in the United States, I've been able to see past the stereotypes we place on Americans — the portrayals of Americans as loud, obnoxious and shallow.
If only you'd see beyond my "interesting" accent and smiling Irish eyes. Don't claim to be Irish and attempt to celebrate a holiday in honor of our patron Saint if you think we're all green-clothed, country-bumpkin beer-drinkers.
If you want to learn more, ask us, don't tell us, who we are. Search for the pot of gold, and you'll find the rainbow.

Local clubs offer Irish celebrations
By Angela Cox Special to the Kansan
Some Lawrence clubs will spice up their usual Wednesday specials for a St. Patrick's Day celebration.
The Granada, 1020 Massachusetts St., will be offering students, at least those older than 21, the chance to try a couple of different Irish beers on St. Patrick's Day, as well as karaoke.
Coco Locco, 943 Massachusetts St., also has plans for a St. Patrick's Day celebration with an Irish theme.
But Lawrence clubs seem to have something for everyone any night of the year.
Along with music variety, each place has its own set of theme nights and special offers.
The Granada starts its week off with the Martini Project. The club opens its front room and offers specials on martinis and cigars, while a disc jockey plays acid jazz records in the background. The middle of the week is either
reserved for live shows or continues the lounge theme of Monday.
"Thursday night is our biggest night probably because of the format of music and the fantastic DJ," said Patty Haramoto, manager of The Granada.
Sunday is The Granada's newest theme night. Revelations is a night centered around techno and "jungle" music, with a variety of area DJs.
Tremors, 729 New Hampshire St., also has theme nights, all catering to different interests. Wednesday night is Alternative Lifestyles night, while Thursday is Tremors Ladies Night, which provides reduced fees for women.
Leprechauns, shamrocks, parades and beer are a few things that come to mind when thinking of St. Patrick's Day.
Fridays are for Good Times, and the disc jockey spins hip hop and R&B records. On Saturday, students can rock out to dance, funk, soul and disco music with the Ultra Groove theme.

It gives people of Irish descent an opportunity to celebrate their heritage.
St. Patrick's Day was first celebrated in America in 1737. Rev. Vince Krische, director and Campus Minister of the St. Lawrence Catholic Center, said St. Patrick's
He said because it fell in the middle of Lent — a time of sacrifice and preparation in the Catholic Church — it served as a way to lighten up such a serious time.
Day became important in the United States because of all the Irish immigrants.
In America, St. Patrick's Day has become more of a secular holiday and less of a religious one. People of all races and backgrounds take advantage of the holiday as a way to have a good time and celebrate the beginning of spring.
John Pecher, St. Louis freshman,
is an active member at St.
The site said the man who would become St. Patrick was born in A.D. 385. His father was a wealthy British nobleman and deacon in their church. Patrick had little interest in God or religion until age 16 when a band of Irish maudurers raided his village. He was captured and sold as a slave to a pagan king. While tending his master's sheep in Ireland, the tale goes that Patrick began to pray and established a strong relationship with God.
Lawrence Catholic Church. He said he thought St. Patrick's Day had become more of a secular holiday because Catholics didn't attend Mass and it wasn't a Holy Day of Obligation.
"St. Patrick's Day has become a big drinking fest. I don't think it owns any religious significance here, but maybe it does in Ireland," said Kelly Goreham, Manhattan freshman.
According to a Web site about the holiday, www.wilstar.com, St. Patrick's Day was originally a Catholic holiday to honor the man responsible for converting the
Irish pagans to Christianity. From this story, many customs and myths emerged.
No holiday plans for local police
By Joe McPeek
Special to the Kansan
St. Patrick's Day is the one day of the year when everyone becomes a little Irish.
It conjures up images of dancing lepercheaus, "Kiss me, I'm Irish" buttons, and of course, green beer.
but for many college students around the country, it doesn't matter that the beer is green. In fact, St. Patrick's Day isn't a special day to most as far as drinking is concerned.
As college students and other partygoers down their malted beverages, KU Public Safety Office will be making its normal rounds. The officers will be patrolling the area looking for people who are unsafe to be on the roads and for underage drinking.
But that is as far as the KU Public Safety Office plans to take it.
"I'm a typical college student. Any excuse to drink is a good reason," said Janelle Schroeder, Osborne freshman. "It doesn't really matter that it's a holiday."
"I don't recall St. Patrick's Day ever being a problem as far as underage drinking is concerned," Lt. Schuyler Bailey said.
He added that because of a lack of complaints, there were no plans for stepping up manpower or tightening security.
According to Lt. Bailey, the KU Public Safety Office is always looking for minors in possession as well as underage drinking. But he said to not expect any special approach to the holiday by campus police.
"St. Patrick's Day doesn't ever really turn out to be any special day. We don't get many more calls regarding alcohol-related problems than any other day — minors or not," said Sgt. Richard Nickell, a 21-year veteran of the Lawrence Police Department. "Drinking from all age groups is a concern, just as it is on New Year's."
The Lawrence police department shares KU Public Safety Office's plan to conduct business as usually.
Sgt. Nickell also said the department would continue its regular patrol and bar checks. If additional manpower became available, he said, the department possibly would allot more officers to perform bar rounds looking for those in violation of the law.

Dyeing to celebrate
story by gerry doyle photo illustrations by graham k. johnson
:
THE STANLEY FOOTBALL CENTER
If James Naismith were here today, surely he would celebrate St. Patrick's Day with a green tint.
S
t. Patrick's Day is a time of many traditions.
Pinch a person if he or she is not wearing green.
If you find a four-leaf shamrock on St. Patrick's Day, it is twice as lucky.
Perhaps the most well-known tradition on St. Patrick's Day is one that originates in the Northern United States. In Chicago, the Chicago River is dyed green for the occasion.
"I don't have a clue," McCloskey said. "I've been to the parade in Kansas City a couple of years. It was pretty fun. There were a lot of people."
Lawrence just has a parade
I think it's great," she said.
Drink.
According to the Chicago Public Library, the tradition began in 1962, when city crews were using dye to trace discharges into the river. A city worker whose overalls had been turned green by the process thought it would be fun to replicate the process for the whole river. So, Mayor Richard Daley gave the order to dump 100 pounds of green vegetable dye into the river, turning it green for a week. Now, only 40 pounds are added — enough to change the river's color for a few hours, or the duration of Chicago's St. Patrick's Day parade.
If you follow a rainbow, it will lead to a pot of gold, or at least a box of cereal.
Katie McCloskey, Atchison freshman, said she didn't know whether she would dye anything on St. Patrick's Day, or do anything else, for that matter.
McCloskey said that although she had no solid plans, she enjoyed the holiday.
To some students at the University, this is not a problem. The traditions that now exist in Lawrence for St. Patrick's Day—the parade, drinking, and skipping class—seem to satisfy at least a few.
Similarly, despite the parade and expected wide spread student par
ipation in various celebratory activities, Lawrence City Manager Mike Wilden said that the city had no plans to dye any part of the city.
tic.

The Kaw, at least, was out of the question.
"No, I don't think so," Wilden said. "It's flowing too much, for one thing. Where would you start? Where would you end?"
Wildgen said that although the city would not dye the Kaw,it had no backup dye ing plans,
either. City Hall? Massachusetts Street? The Riverfront Mall?
"Not that I can think of," Wildgen said. "The parade is our celebration."
The University will most likely have more participants in St. Patrick's Day than any other institution in Lawrence. With more than 25,000 students, the legions of celebrators will be swelled by Jayhawks intent on enjoying the holiday.
For students at the University, the traditions of St. Patrick's Day can mean at least a day of entertainment.
Liz Yoder, Lawrence freshman,
said that she, like McCloskey,
had no definite plans for March
17. In the past, she said, the festivities meant an opportunity to skip class.
"A lot of people I know would get out of school for the parade," she said.
The traditions of St. Patrick's Day would at least provide some distraction during the day, she said. St. Patrick's Day activities were a break from the drudgery of eating, drinking, sleeping, not making it to the Final Four and going to class.
"They're somewhat entertaining," she said. "Things like wearing green, running around and pinching each other."
Dyeing things at the University was a possible way to add to the festivities, she said. Although a dyed building, administrator, street or statue might be out of the question, a
body of water might be the way to drive away the
snakes
snakes of St. Patrick's Dav dullness.
"The fountain," Voder said. "It's a visible place that people know well."
The University, although not opposed to St. Patrick's Day, was not planning on dyeing anything in an effort to embrace participation in the Irish day of green, shamrocks and a saint, said Jeanette Johnson, assistant to the provost.
they stretched all the way to the seat of power in Kansas.
The consequences, she said,
went beyond just the University
So, without a dyed river, building, street or person, KU students may be forced to search for other ways to paint the town green today. Between the city and the University, most major options for dyeing seem to have been cut off.
Dyeing one another?
Dyeing pets? Dyeing cars, or computers, or shoes, or clothes, or midterms? No clear option seems to present itself.
"I think that would be a frivolous use of state money," she said. "The Legislature would frown on the use of that money."
But with a little luck, one probably will surface.

Commentary
Women's rise in basketball hurt by greed in tournament
For women's college basketball it's two steps forward and one step back.
The timing of the statement seems a bit strange at first. After all, the women's college game has made significant strides in recent years and is inarguably more popular than ever.
Some suggested that no women's team ever would average more than 10,000 fans. But that's now a slow night for Pat Summit's Volunteers of Tennessee. Many doubted the women's Final Four ever would sell out, but hysterical laughter is all you would receive if you called San Jose for tickets to this year's event.
The budding success may be as apparent in our own Big 12 Conference as anywhere. Proof positive: The Texas Tech Lady Raiders tangled with the Nebraska Cornhuskers in front 10.221 fans in Lin-
colon on February 21.
The men's game featuring the same two schools drew a meager 7,815.
So what's the problem? How is the game being stifled when it appears to be so apparently on the rise? The answer is simple: greed.
VOL. 14
Since the inception of the 32-team Women's NCAA Tournament in 1982 and 64-team format in 1994.

the top four teams in each region of the bracket have been allowed to play host to the first two rounds of the tournament. The idea was to bolster ticket sales since a hometown crowd for the higher seeded team would undoubtedly draw more fans than a neutral site.
At one time this may have been necessary, but the popularity of the women's game has progressed beyond the need for such gimmicks, and the future popularity of the women's game is being jeopardized for profits.
The women's NCAA committee needs to take a long, hard look at what makes the men's tournament so wildly successful, and if for only a moment, CBS is the television station to watch.
Fans love good basketball. They love upsets and underdogs, nail-biting finishes and last second heroes. The women's NCAA Tournament has a shortage of all of these.
- This year the nation is buzzing about the men's tournament once more. Miami of Ohio's Wally Szczerbiak single-handedly carried his 10th-seeded Redhawks to the Sweet 16, and 12th-seeded Southwest Missouri State, the third best team in the Missouri Valley Conference, clubbed Tennessee by 30 points in the second round, each grabbing national headlines.
The Big 12's own Oklahoma Sooners, the last-large team selected for the field of 64 as a 13th seed, upset Arizona and North Carolina-Charlotte and stood tall after the first weekend of tournament play.
See USING on page 3B
So what was the top story in the women's Big Dance after weekend one? Think hard ... not coming up with anything, huh?
Maybe that's because every single top four seed advanced to the Sweet 16. That's right, every team left is a 1, 2, 3 or 4 seed. In the first round those 16 teams won by an average of 25.5 points per game. Pretty exciting stuff.
Only half of the top 16 seeded teams, which coasted in the women's tournament, escaped the upset bug and advanced to the Sweet 16 in the men's. And of last year's men's Final Four teams, only Kentucky — by the narrowest of margins — remains. Stanford, Utah and North Carolina were each dumped by upstart sleepers.
It is those magical games that make us cheer like madmen (and madwomen) for the Gonzaga and the Princetons of the basketball world, where small schools grab the spotlight and unknown players such as Harold "The Show" Arceneaux of
Tennis player shows no fear
By Melinda Weaver sports@kansan.com
Kansan sportswriter
When he rests during the changeover between games, Kansas tennis' No. 2 players player Kenny Powell cranks the volume on his portable compact disc player as No Limit Soldier by Master P blares through the headset.
Master P boasts that he fears no one as he prepares for the war. The song is about respect and preparing to compete at an unbeatable level.
As Powell moves in time with the beat that only he can hear, the song shifts his intense focus toward the match.
When he plays tennis, Powell is a "No Limit Soldier."
"In tennis, it's a game where I have to take it to him, or he'll take it to me," Powell said. "The song makes me confident and strong. It prepares me to just go out and dominate my opponent. It keeps me focused on the mission."
As one of two seniors on the young Kansas team, Powell has had to maintain his focus and assume the leadership role.
The challenge began in the first match of the season against Louisville when No. 9 Luis Uribe missed the game because of chicken pox, placing Powell in his No.1 singles and doubles debut. Powell spent most of his junior season playing No.4 singles and No.3 doubles, but he didn't falter in the No.1 position. He has posted a 6-1 record in both singles and doubles this spring.
"It has been hard for Kenny because he's kind of locked into the No. 2 spot," Coach Mark Riley said. "When you play behind a guy who has spent most of the season ranked No. 9, it's hard to move up. But he's done a great job in the No. 2 spot. He has a much better record at No. 2 than he did at No. 4. I expect him to be a top-of-the线player for us this season."
Fans posted a sign at Alvamar Racquet Club that said, "Kenny Powell: Enter-
"I think he's improved a lot this year as far as leadership and behavior on the court," said Kenny's father, Kenneth Powell II. "He's very excitable and plays with a lot of feeling. He leaves a lot out there on the court."
Powell's emotional performance does not limit his effectiveness. When he has been called upon to clinch the victory point for his team, he has done it.
traiment at Its Best." And Powell has lived up to his reputation.
In three consecutive matches against Minnesota, Wichita State and Ohio State, the team depended on Powell and freshman partner Alex Barragan to produce the decisive victory to capture the doubles point.
"He is playing the best I have seen him play," Uribe said. "He has been working hard, and the results show it. He keeps me energetic and makes me want to play harder. He gives the team a lot of confidence."
Powell's best memory this season was his singles victory against No. 81 Tyson Parry that clinched a victory against No. 24 Minnesota on its home court and an Ice Volley tournament win, the team's first tournament title since April 1996.
"Everyone else was finished, and it came down to my match," Powell said. "I beat a ranked player in front of his home crowd, and after I put the last ball away, the team stormed the courts and dove on top of me to celebrate. It was awesome."
Powell began playing tennis at age 5 when his father built a court in their backyard in St. Louis. His parents Kenneth and Dianne and his older twin sisters Kim and Kelley played as well.
He also played baseball and soccer, but tennis became the focus of his athletic career when baseball sent him to St. Charles, Mo., and tennis offered him national competitions in San Diego.
His "No Limit Soldier" mentality devel-

The Jayhawks split a doubleheader with the Arkansas Lady Razorbacks 3-5 and 6-1 in yesterday's Kansas softball home opener.
Coach Tracy Bunge said she was pleased with her team's performance in both games.
"I really don't have anything negative to say about today," Bunge said. "Our hitting was good, and our overall intensity was good. Even though we lost the first game, we played well."
Kansas fell behind early in the first game after Arkansas' Lolly Landgraf drove in two runs with a triple off sophomore pitcher Jessi Kowal.

Kansas tried to mount a rally in the seventh inning and scored two runs on three hits. The team's rally fell short when Shelly Musser, freshman center fielder, grounded out to end the game.
Kansas cut the lead in half during the fourth inning when Megan Urqhart, third basemen, hit a triple and brought in freshman Leah Tabb from first base. The Lady Razorbacks added two more runs in the fifth and sixth innings and went un 5-1.
Kansas pitcher Sarah Workman struggled with control in the first inning of the second game, surrendering two walks and one hit. The Lady Razorbacks loaded the bases with one out but came away with just one run.
"Jessi had trouble getting behind hitters, and they just took advantage of their opportunities." Bunge said.
Kansas took the lead for good in the bottom of the first inning. The Jayhawks loaded the bases with only one out after Arkansas pitcher Rachael Tally gave up her third walk of the inning.
Christy McPail, shortstop,
smashed a double over the center
fielder's head and gave the Jay-
hawks a 3-1 lead.
The next batter, first baseman
Shannon Stanwix, singled McPhail home and put Kansas on top 4-1. McPhail went 3-for-3 in the game with four RBI.
Kansas will play in the Airtouch Cellular Capital Classic March 18-21 in Tallahassee, Fla., before opening up Big 12 Conference play against Oklahoma State March 27 in Stillwater, Okla.

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday:
You're certainly looking good this year, and you should be feeling marvelous. Push yourself to try something new. By the end of March, you should know what you want, so in April you can invest in it. There's more to learn in May, and you'll be getting more attention in August. By November, you should be ready to break out of your old habits. By December, you'll hardly recognize yourself. Keep radical ideas to yourself in February.
Aries (March 21-April 19): Today is a 6.
You're a very creative person now. You've been thinking about doing something colorful for quite a while, and the conditions are perfect right now. Don't wait any longer.
Taurus (April 20-May 20): Today is a 6.
Taurus (April 20-May 20): today is a 6.
Get your planning out of the way. You'll have to be in the action phase sooner than you expected. Get your flight plan figured out so that if you have to wing it, you'll know where you're going.
Gemini (May 21-June 21): Today is a 6.
All is not as it appears. That's not much of a comfort.
Here you are, trying to figure out what's going on, and
you learn it's probably not what you think it is. That could
turn out to your advantage, however, so stay alert.
Cancer (June 22-July 22): Today is a 6.
You may find yourself beyond your safety zone,
almost by accident. You're probably asking yourself
how you got here. Something probably enticed you,
seduced you, hypnotized you, or all of the above. If
any of that is happening, relax.
Leo [July 23-Aug. 22]; Today is a 6.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) : Today is a 6.
It looks as if a hassle is just about talked through,
although you may feel you've been going around in circles. You've probably been ferreting out the truth,
and that's not always easy to do. If you have, congratulations. Your relationship with the people involved will be stronger.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Today is a 5.
A partnership formed now could be exciting, creative and even quite lucrative. It'll be hard to know what to expect next, however. Even if you develop a routine, it'll be hard to stick to it. No problem. You can always develop a new one.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Today is a 6.
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Today is a 6.
Try to keep yourself from getting too emotional or too excited today. A rumor you hear may be just that, a rumor, and not even true. Don't go racing off and getting upset until you get proof. Reporters need to corroborate a story from three different sources, remember? You can do that, too, and you should.
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Today is a 6.
You'll probably be in a very good mood today until a co-worker refuses to go along with your suggestion.
This might even be someone who's working for you, which is even more irritating. Instead of getting cranky, be patient. You can outwait this rebellion.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Today is a 6.
It looks as if you're finally fixing things up the way you want them to be and the way the person who shares your environment wants them to be, too. This is kind of an awkward situation since your tastes differ, but don't spend all day quarrelling about it. Get it done so that you can go do something else.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Today is a 6.
Position yourself for a stroke of genius today. If you study best in the middle of a chaotic environment, that's where you should be. If you need a quiet library setting, then scoot yourself over there. You're apt to come up with something marvelous.
P
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) — Today is a 6.
Money is not your major concern today, although it does look as if what you're doing could generate some. You seem more concerned with competition.
Perhaps you've got an argument going with a person you find mildly threatening. Don't focus on that.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) : Today is a 6.
A lucky break could come today, and it could make you richer. It's probably not the lottery. More likely, it's an older person's generosity. You may have thought that this person didn't even like you, but you were sure wrong about that.

Rodman absence fuels speculation of problems
Lakers representative Tom Savage said earlier in the day that Rodman was on an excused, indefinite leave of absence and is being paid his $12,195 per-game salary.
LOS ANGELES
— A source close to Dennis Rodman says the seven-time NBA rebounding champion will return to the Los Angeles Lakers after dealing with personal problems unrelated to basketball. When he will

addressing his problems and looks forward to returning and contributing to the team."
"I don't know. I can't address that," the source, who spoke on the condition of anonymity, told The Associated Press on Monday. "He's
The source said Rodman appreciated the support he has received from the Lakers and wouldn't comment on the nature of the 37-year-old forward's difficulties.
return is uncertain.
"There are a lot of different rumors about different problems he might be addressing," the source said. "However, I think it could be hurtful to speculate on them. It's important he addresses them privately. He's trying to wrestle with them and go on."
The Lakers confirmed Sunday that Rodman missed practice the day before and didn't travel with the team to Sacramento for Sunday night's game against the Kings — the opener of a six-game road trip in nine days.
"Dennis does love to entertain. But right now, he needs some privacy."
SCORPIO
When asked about an ESPN report that Rodman was seen gambling in Las Vegas on Sunday night, the source only would say, "He spent some time out of town. He's back in the Los Angeles area."
TORONTO — John Calipari, whose season began with strong hopes and quickly turned to "misery" with a 3-17 start, is out as coach of the New Jersey Nets.
Nets fire head coach after lackluster start
He was fired Monday after just 2
1/2 years and replaced by assistant
Don Casey, whose stint begins with
tonight's game against the Toronto
Raptors.
"I'll say this about pro basketball: If you're a good group of guys and you're winning, there is no better gig in the world," Calipari said. "But if you're losing and you have a few bad seeds, I can't explain to you misery like that."

NETS
Casey was appointed interim coach while the Nets pursue former Chicago Bulls coach Phil Jackson. Jackson has said
Calipari had two years and $6 million remaining on his five-year, $15 million contract. He was offered a consulting job with the team, although he did not say if he would take it.
The Nets also fired assistant coaches Johnny Davis, Kenny Gattison and Jack Haley.
With his team beset by poor play and injuries and his players unhappy with his "in your face" style of coaching, Calipari's ouster had been widely anticipated.
he would like to return to the NBA,
but it's unclear if he's interested in
the Nets or would move up his timetable to coach this season.
"He was trying so hard to change his style," team owner Lewis Katz said. "I don't know that there was a determining factor, but it was pretty obvious that he was in his misery as he watched the season slip away when there had been such high expectations at the start of the season."
Katz and co-owner Finn Wentworth met with Calipari after Sunday's 102-76 nationally televised loss at Miami. Calipari didn't accompany the team to Toronto but flew separately to inform the players of the decision.

Georgia Tech transfer enjoying career after adjustment period
Continued from page 1B
oped as he flourished in individual competition. "I started to enjoy tennis because it was an individual sport, and it was up to me whether I won or lost," Powell said. "No one else could control my fate, and I liked that."
After graduating from Ladue High School, he decided to attend Georgia Tech, but after two years, he wanted to transfer.
"Georgia Tech was one of the top engineering schools in the country, but I was a pre-dentistry major," Powell said. "I wanted to attend a college with a better liberal arts curriculum, so I could knock out my prerequisites."
He chose Kansas because he had developed a good relationship with Riley. While Riley coached at Drake, he had followed Powell through his juniors career.
Powell agreed to transfer when Riley accepted the job at Kansas.
Riley said that the transition required a big adjustment but that Powell had grown more comfortable with the system.
"In football and basketball, transfers have to sit out a season so they have time to adjust to the makeup of the team," Riley said. "They have time to evolve into a new environment. Kenny had to adjust to different personnel and a different team without taking a year off. It took awhile, but he has been a big plus for us this spring."
Powell plans to spend another semester at Kansas preparing for dental school before studying abroad in Costa Rica next spring. Before dental school, he might take a year to play professional tennis.
For now, he plans to have a fun and enjoy his final semester of college tennis.
"That's how I live my life." Powell said. "I work hard to do the best I can do. I believe in myself and have faith in God, and everything else will take care of itself. It's my last year of college tennis, and I want to enjoy every minute of it."

Using only top seeds' home courts weakens women's tournament
Continued from page 1B
Weber State play their way into our hearts.
The lower echelon women's teams continue to be hidden in the shadows. If the men's Big Dance is the Charleston, the women's looks more like a waltz.
Women's hoops analysts contend that there is simply more parity in men's basketball and, therefore, more close games, but most coaches agree it is simply too hard to win on an opponent's home court.
Let's take a look at what happened to the Kansas women's team.
The Jayhawks are an outstanding defensive team, though they lack consistent outside shooting, and have the talent to beat any team in the country on a given night. Just ask Texas Tech.
What Coach Marian Washington's team walked into Monday night was nothing short of a 9,500 Boilermaker-fan ambush in Purdue's Macky Arena, which
Purdue coach Carolyn Peck could bring to a deafening roar with the wave of her arms. And she did throughout the game.
The Jayhawks realistically had no chance.
"Their crowd was out of control, which is what you want if you're Purdue," said Kansas forward Brooke Reves. "They're comfortable here and we're not. When the shot clock was running down, I couldn't hear a thing."
As another example, the overmatched Xavier women's team met perennial power Connecticut in the second round of the Mideast Regional and played a nearly flawless game, while the Huskies struggled.Xavier led by three with one minute remaining but couldn't hold on when crowd support of any kind might have been the difference. On a neutral site, the Musketeers probably could have pulled off the upset.
able. Or maybe they can see it but don't want to sacrifice a few years of ticket sales for the long-term growth of the sport.
"Programs are spending too much money, too much time, and our kids are working too hard to not have neutral playing sites," Coach Marian Washington said. "We are at a point where we deserve a fair, even ground."
The fact that the committee can't see how this is hurting women's basketball is unbeliev-
The current system guarantees a hierarchy of teams that always receive exposure and will always get the best recruits because no other schools advance past the second round, where most of the games are televised. The Lady Vols four-peating, or Connecticut winning by an average of 48 points does nothing for the advancement of the game as a whole. It's time to even the playing field.
Fans want hard-fought, evenly matched basketball. And if you provide it, they still will come.

Commentary
Loyalty doesn't require hero worship
"And our next caller is Bob from Chanute, Kansas ... Go ahead with your question, Bob."
"Hello? Uh, yeah, Coach Williams, I just wanted to tell you that I think you're a fantastic coach, and we all really love you out here in Chanute. We hope you never leave ... and well, we just really like ya."
"Okay, did you have a question for Coach Williams?" "Nope."
"Nope."
... All right. Thanks, caller."
This is the typical call to the Hawkstall show that gives Kansas basketball fans a chance to pose questions to Coach Roy Williams.
**Hope.**
"...All right, Thanks, caller."
The problem with this show is that rarely is Coach Williams asked any questions. The callers just tell him how great they think he is.
And my question is why.
I would think people would have plenty of questions the day after Kansas loses a barn-burner game to Kentucky.
salad dressing?"
KU BOOKSTORE · KANSAS UNION · 864-4640 · WWW.JAYHAWKS.COM
And mv question is why?
"Coach, can you tell us about the difference in your team yesterday to the first time they played Kentucky this year?"
"Coach, what are you going to concentrate on this off season?"
"Coach, what's your favorite
In defense of Monday night's show, there were two good questions. One caller asked Coach Williams about his decision not to call a time-out for the final play of regulation; the other asked about Kansas' seeding in this year's tournament.
But why can't Kansas basketball fans be both Roy Williams fans and critical, independently thinking basketball viewers?
Fans who are even slightly critical of Williams are accosted by their friends. Questioning a Williams move aloud around campus is like talking to people about the benefits of communism in the 1950s.
It seems each year after a heart-breaking loss in the tournament, Coach Williams makes an appearance on camera with his eyes all puffy, his head down, looking as if he just aged 10 more years. He talks about the "youngsters" and how sorry he is for them. He questions his own coaching ability. He says "doggone" several times. He is so hard on himself that you want to reach into your television screen and give him a hug.
I think it's the people who want to give him a hug who are
the people who call this show. They want him to forget about another tragic loss and think of the positives.
"Just remember Coach Williams, we think there isn't
I wonder if C o a c h William s rolls his eyes every time a
an other classier coach in all of college basketball. I would take a bullet for you, man."

Judge wants another chance to score match
Jones is an Mulvane junior in journalism.
The Associated Press
LONDON — The judge who became the most unpopular man in British sports by scoring the Evander Holyfield-Lennox Lewis fight a draw would like to handle the rematch.
But he's not counting on it.
"Yes, I'd definitely do it," Larry O'Connell said yesterday. "But I don't think they'd want me."
O'Connell admits being surprised that his scorecard showed a draw for Saturday night's heavyweight title bout at Madison Square Garden fight. However, he ruled out any error in judgement.
In a result widely condemned on both sides of the Atlantic, another judge called the fight for Lewis, the WBC champion, and the other gave it to Holfield, WBA-1BF champion. The draw meant both fighters lent their belts.
O'Connell, a 60-year-old British judge, has faced heavy criticism since returning from New York. He says he understands the response but insists he did nothing wrong.
"It was a lot closer than it might have appeared," he said by telephone. "I've been answering questions since the fight ended, and I've been taken out of context and misquoted about making mistakes. But I've also had a lot of support from friends and people who've reviewed the fight."
O'Connell says such issues as nationalism do not affect his judgment.
"When I go to judge a fight, I only see two pairs of shorts, not a British boxer and an American," he said. "People maybe expected me to favor Lewis because I'm British, but you can't play it like that."
"OK, you might get a gut feeling about how the fight is going, but you have to ignore it. What you see, round by round, ends up on the
scorecard. You just have to focus.
— that's unethical — so I didn't know what my final score was until I heard it read out."
"You keep your score for each round. You can't add up the totals
Based on Saturday's fight, O'Connell said he thought Lewis would win a rematch.
"If Holyfield doesn't want a rematch, then he should retire," O'Connell said. "He's got nothing else to fight for."
O'Connell, who has spent 23 years as a judge or referee, was appointed by the WBC for the bout.
("WBC) appointed me, so they obviously think I must have something going for me," he said. "It just happened to be the biggest fight in years, and I happen to be caught in the middle."
Jose Sulaiiman the head of the WBC, called O'Connell a man of unquestionable integrity and competence and a proven impartiality.
However, Sulaiman said yesterday from the organization's headquarters in Mexico City that Lewis was "robed" and was the deserving champion.
"We would like to think that image of impartiality was unconsciously assumed by Mr. O'Connell, but he definitely exceeded it." Sulaiman said.
O'Connell said he didn't think the bout was "the greatest fight on God's earth."
"Unfortunately, I think Lennox could have avoided all this controversy for us if he'd boxed for an opportunity instead of waiting for a break," he said.
("Lewis) could have done it in the fifth round, but he waited for about 20 seconds when maybe he should have been more positive."
O'Connell added that he felt sorry for both Lewis and the fans.
"Lennox has done nothing wrong.
He's never missed a challenge."
He called Lewis an example of "what is right about sport."
Ratings rise for women in NCAAs
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — The men's tournament may not be keeping up with last year's pace, but the women are doing just fine.
While CBS' men's ratings are down 4 percent through the first two rounds, ESPN's coverage of the women's tournament is up on both of its channels.
ESPN2 posted a.44 for the eight games broadcast during the initial two rounds, a 10 percent increase from a.40 last year.
The two games on ESPN have shown a 6 percent increase, from a .89 last season to a .92.
"Women's basketball is a continuing success story," said Len DeLuca, senior vice president of program development. "It is gaining depth, which is driving competition, interest and ratings."
Even with several blowouts, the men's tournament posted a 5.4 overnight rating and a 12 share through the first two rounds of action — down just 4 percent from last year's 5.6 overnight rating and a 13 share.
Last year, there were about a dozen games that were decided in the game's final moments.
"We had a couple of incompetitive windows, which can happen," said Mike Aresco, CBS' vice president of programming. "We can't control what happens on the court. We've had a lot of good games, but what we haven't had was games coming down to the wire."
The rating is the percentage of TV households in the nation tuned to a program, and each point represents 994,000 homes. The share is the percentage tuned to a program among those televisions on at the time.
Only one man could turn a week of betrayal, intrigue and murder into the most holy week of the year.

Cubs star pitcher out for the season
Wood hurts elbow in his spring debut
The Associated Press
MESA, Ariz. — Kerry Wood will miss this season because of a torn elbow ligament, leaving the Chicago Cubs without the pitcher who dazzled baseball last year.
The NL Rookie of the Year, who last May struck out 20 batters against Houston, completely tore the ulnar collateral ligament in his right elbow during his spring training debut against Anaheim on Saturday.
"He's a huge loss, no doubt about it," teammate Mark Grace said yesterday
Wood was in Chicago for an MRI exam. But even before the results, the Cubs announced the injury was season ending, sending a shudder through their clubhouse on a cold, rainy morning.
"I feel for him," reliever Rock Beck said. "I think as a pitcher every one of us has laid in bed with an ache and a pain thinking it's over."
Wood became one of baseball's top attractions last season and helped the Cubs win the NL wild-card spot. He missed all of September because of a sore elbow, but returned to pitch five innings in Game 3 of the playoffs against Atlanta.
"We'll keep Sammy on the field — put a glass case around him," Beck said of star home run hitter Sammy Sosa, the Cubs' leading draw.
Wood's status has shaken a team trying to win its first pennant since 1945.
"I think our players will take
this as a challenge we will have to overcome, the same as Atlanta and Houston are doing," said Cubs manager Jim Riggleman, referring to Andres Galarraga and Moises Alou, both out for the season.
He's had some ups and downs
"He's had some from the time he signed that most young pitchers have gone through."
CUBS
Wood was hospitalized twice at the start of
spring training for an upper respiratory and intestinal illness, then threw just 10 of 26 pitches for strikes Saturday against Anaheim. He wound up with elbow pain again that night.
Chicago had hoped the pain was from scar tissue, not ligament damage.
Even though he has less than a year of major league service, Cubs players already look to Wood as a leader. Grace compared him to Curt Schilling, Randy Johnson and Kevin Brown, calling him "almost irreplaceable."
"Kerry is one of those guys that can win even when he doesn't have his good stuff because of his reputation," Grace said. "Selfishly, he's so much fun to play behind, watching those overpowering fastballs and those bowel-locking curves."
Steve Trachsel, Kevin Tapani,
Terry Mulholland and Jon
Lieber are the other four starters in the Cubs' rotation. Scott Sanders or Kurt Miller will most likely move into the rotation.
SCALES & TAILS PET SHOP
"It's an opportunity for a guy like Scott Sanders or Terry Mulholland to step up." Grace said.

The weapon is drugs, like Rohypnol and GHB. These drugs are silent and invisible—when hidden in a drink, they are completely undetectable. Yet, they are potent and destructive. They can seriously harm

Signs that you may have been drugged:
* If you feel a lot more intoxicated than your usual response to the amount of alcohol you consumed...
* If you wake up feeling very hung over, feeling "fuxzy", and can't account for a period of time...
* If you remember taking a drink, but cannot recall what happened for a period of time after you consumed the drink...
* If you feel as though someone had sex with you, but you can't remember any or all of the incident
You're at a party, a club, or a social event. You're with people you know, people you think you have no reason to fear. Someone secretly drops a drug like Robynpol or GHB in your drink. When the drug dissolves, it is colorless and orderles. It may also be tasteless. As you consume the drink, the drug takes effect. You're now in a weakened, helpless, or unconscious state. You're so incapacitated that you can't escape or resist a rapist, or even call out for help. You're sexually assaulted. When the drug wears off, you may not remember what happened or who participated because the drug often causes amnesia.
This may sound like an old story — "spiking the punch" or "slipping her a Mickey". What is new is that these drugs are especially dangerous. When combined with alcohol or other drugs, the mixture can be lethal.
Judge bans delay of Proposition 16
NCAA must alter testing requirement
The Associated Press
PHILADELPHIA — A federal judge yesterday denied the NCAA's request to delay enforcement of a court order stopping the use of minimum standardized test scores as an eligibility requirement for freshman athletes.
U. S. District Judge Ronald Buckwatter, who issued the initial ruling last week that struck down Proposition 16, denied the NCAA's request for a stay. The
NCAA had said it needed more time to form new guidelines and to work on appeals.
NCAA
- Information taken from the Santa Monica Rape Treatment Center, Santa Monica, CA
Immediate enforcement
of Buckwalter's initial ruling could cause chaos among the 302 Division I schools who suddenly would be without a critical recruiting guideline, NCAA counsel David Bruton said in court. The NCAA also said the ruling could affect teams participating in the men's and women's basketball tournaments now going on.
"Because the number of spots available for recruiting and athletic scholarships are limited, the rules of the game are knocked out," Bruton said in court Monday about the end of the minimum test score requirements for freshmen.
Attorneys for the four African- American athletes who filed the suit said the NCAA should adopt a nondiscriminatory eligibility policy rather than fight to delay or overturn the court's decision. The NCAA has said it would appeal regardless of how Buck-
"Because the number of spots available for recruiting and athletic scholarships are limited, the rules of the game are knocked out."
David Bruton NCAA counsel
walter ruled on the stay.
The four plaintiffs in the case, all of whom have since graduated or are no longer freshmen in college, maintained they were denied NCAA scholarships or sports eligibility because they did not meet the minimum test score.
Under Proposition 16, the association required freshman athletes to have a high-school diploma and a minimum gradepoint average in 13 core academic courses with the GPA contingent on an indexed, sliding scale with a student's score on either the Scholastic Assessment Test or American College Test.
However, students scoring lower than 820 on the SAT, or 16 on the ACT, could not participate regardless of their other academic credentials.
Buckwalter's ruling on Proposition 16 did not limit the use of standardized tests, which many educators long have said are racially and culturally discriminatory. Its forerunner, Proposition 48, resulted from a tumultuous NCAA convention in 1983 when a group of reform-minded school presidents began pushing for toughened academic requirements.
The NCAA has said the earliest it could establish new guidelines would be October because it first has to consult its member schools before instituting new rules.

Key for Sooners' success Beat Spartans at own game
The Associated Press
NORMAN, Okla. When Oklahoma coach Kelvin Sampson looks at Michigan State, he sees a part of the same family tree.
"They're kind of our cousins," Sampson said Monday. "Maybe the upper-class cousins. We're on the other side of the railroad track, but they're our cousins in a lot of ways.
"They make you play their way, and that's the mark of a good team. They're good at what they do."
Michigan State, the
No.1 seed in the NCAA Midwest Regional, averages 72.5 points and holds opponents to 59.5. The Spartans (31-4) have eight players do most of the work.
No. 13 seed Oklahoma (22-10) also has a short bench and has averaged 71 points, compared with 62 for its opponents. Both teams have held opponents to 40 percent shooting.
The Sooners, who meet Michigan State in the regional semifinals Friday night in St. Louis, are only the third No. 13 seed to two games in an NCAA
tournament. They controlled the tempo in upsetting fourth-seeded Arizona in the first round, then outage 12 more rebounds per game than their opponents and have nearly a 2-1 edge on the offensive glass.
QJ
In order to beat Michigan State, Sampson says his team has to find a way to stay with the Spartans on the backboards. Rebounding has been a strength for Oklahoma, but the Spartans average 12 more rebounds per game than their opponents and have nearly a 2-1 edge on the offensive glass.
"They're the most ferocious offensive rebounding team that I've seen." Sampson said. "They're the one team that I've seen this year that consistently sends four people to the offensive boards."
Oklahoma got through the first two tournament games by rebounding well, playing outstanding defense and shooting effectively from the perimeter.
Blue Devils ready to battle it out in tournament riddled with upsets
The Associated Press
DURHAM, N.C. — Duke coach Mike Krzyewski didn't achieve a 45-12 career record in the NCAA tournament by overlooking teams. Don't plan on it happening now.
The top-seeded Blue Devils (34-1), a favorite to win the national title, might
THE NORTH CAROLINA TECHNOLOGY COLLEGE
have gotten a few breaks during the weekend when the East Regional bracket appeared to get easier with losses by seeds two to five — Miami (Fla.). Cincinnati, Tennessee and Wisconsin.
With those seeds gone, Duke will face 12th-seeded Southwest Missouri State (22-10) on Friday
at East Rutherford, N.J. If Duke wins its 30th straight, it will get the winner of No. 6 Temple and No. 10 Purdue in the regional title game.
"I have no control over what happens in the tournament, but it is apparent that the teams that are playing best advance," Krzeyzewski said. "I would rather play a team that is playing bad than a team that is playing great."
Krzyzewski said anyone who reached the tournament's round of 16 was capable, including Steve Alford's team. Southwest Missouri dismantled No.4 seed Tennessee on Sunday, beating the Volunteers by 30 points.
Duke won its first- and second-round NCAA games at the Charlotte Coliseum by 41 points each, against Florida A&M and Tulsa. The Blue Devils have won their last 11 by an average margin of 31 points.
Duke remains confident about reaching the Final Four — but not overconfident considering the many upsets that have occurred in its region.
"Coach has always preached respecting your opponent," forward Shane Battier said. "Throughout the year, we've played teams where we've been favored by X amount of points, and on paper it looks like it can be a 100-point game, but we're always respected our opponent's effort, and that's been key to us."
The loss of No. 3 seed Cincinnati means Duke won't get a shot at beating the only team to defeat the Blue Devils this season. The Bearcats beat the Blue Devils 77-75 on Nov. 28 in the Great Alaska Shootout.

Dow tops 10,000 mark but closes at 28 down
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — The Dow broke 10,000 yesterday, propelled by a record eight years of U.S. economic growth, a boom in high technology and investor enchantment with the Internet.
Traders on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange cheered, waved their hands and tossed hand-ripped confetti as the Dow Jones industrial average, the world's best-known measure of the value of stocks, hit five digits at 9:50 a.m.
Then, as often happens after such milestones, sellers took over. The index of 30 blue chip stocks went as high as 10,001.78, then immediately retreated and never made it back. It ended the day down 28.30 at 9,930.47.

Still, analysts were pleased with the breakthrough.
"It's just a number, but hitting 10,000 says to me it's continued confirmation that the bull market is alive and well," said Alfred E. Goldman of A.G. Edwards & Sons Inc. in St. Louis.
The Dow is now up 8 percent this year on top of an unprecedented four straight years of double-digit growth.
The index was pushed over the top by everyday events of the business world that often prompt buying—announcements this week of corporate mergers and the promise of healthy earnings from big companies such as Union Carbide. But these were just the immediate causes.
The Dow 10,000 rocket was launched early in the decade, fueled by a growing economy
↓9930.47.-28.30
combined with low inflation and interest rates that kept consumers spending and corporate profits rising. The rise of personal computers and technology improved corporate America's productivity even as manufacturing jobs steadily declined.
The market got an additional boost in the past year through an explosion of enthusiasm for the Internet. Hundreds of companies have rushed to put a "com" after their names, expecting a big payoff by selling everything from Furby dolls to stocks online.
America Online, for instance, went from $16 a year ago to $105 now. Yahoo, the online directory service, has gone from $21 to $175.
Economic troubles in Russia, Asia and Latin America threatened several times during the past two years to halt the Dow's advance, and the Dow slipped below 7,500 as recently as Oct. 8. But then stocks rebounded after a series of three interest rate cuts by the Federal Reserve.
Rescuers look for survivors of Amtrak crash
The Associated Press
"To find survivors in the wreckage would be pretty unlikely," Bourbonnais Fire Chief Mike Harshbarger said.
BOURBONNAIS, Ill. — Rescue crews combed through a twisted, charred rail car yesterday, with little hope of finding survivors after Amtrak's City of New Orleans struck a truck and derailed. At least 14 people were killed, and four others were missing and are feared dead.
The train, bound from Chicago to New Orleans, careened off the tracks shortly after 9:30 p.m. Monday when it slammed into a semi-trailer loaded with heavy steel bars at a crossing 50 miles south of Chicago.
All of the dead were aboard one sleeper car near the front of the train. As the impact sent engines and cars flying, it was pierced by one of the engines and set afire by leaking diesel fuel.
The double-deck sleeper car was broken in the middle, and much of it had been damaged by fire.
All the other cars had been searched, he said.
All the other cars had been searched, he said. Fourteen people were confirmed dead by a coroner on the scene, said Lt. Randy Irps of the Bourbonnais Fire District. Four people were unaccounted for and feared dead, and more than 100 were taken to hospitals, authorities said.
Suspected nuclear site to be inspected by U.S.
"I was trying to go to sleep," said Blanche Jones, a passenger from Memphis, Tenn. "Then all of the sudden everything just started crashing and catching on fire and people hollering and running. It was awful."
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — In an apparent breakthrough, North Korea has agreed to give U.S. inspectors access to a suspect nuclear weapons site, Secretary of State Madeleine Albright announced yesterday.

to be in violation of a 1994 agreement made by North Korea not to create nuclear weapons.

NORTH KOREA
SOUTH KOREA
P.O. Box 605, KANGAN, GWANDA.
State Department representative James P. Rubin said the agreement, reached during four rounds of talks in New York, called for the inspections to begin this spring.
Rubin said U.S. negotiators rejected North Korean demands for compensation in exchange for U.S. access to the site. But he said the United States promised to sponsor a pilot program carried out by private experts to help North Korea increase potato yields. The country has been afflicted by widespread famine for years, and hundreds of thousands are thought to have starved to death.
Since last August, the United
States has been pressing for access to the Kumchang-ni underground site, about 25 miles northwest of Yongbyon, where, U.S. officials think, North Korea may be developing nuclear weapons in violation of a 1994 agreement.
The North Koreans have denied that the site has any nuclear role.
The agreement, Rubin said, will enable the United States "to confirm and monitor the current and future use of the suspect site that we have been concerned about."
Whitewater tape airs Hillary's story
The Associated Press
LITTLE ROCK, Ark. — In a grand jury videotape made public for the first time yesterday, Hillary Rodham Clinton testified she never spent any significant time monitoring records of the Whitewater land deal she and President Clinton shared with Jim and Susan McDougal.
Clinton also said on the tape, played at Susan McDougal's trial, that she was unaware of a $27,600 loan for Whitewater taken out in Bill Clinton's name a decade before he became president.
Forty minutes of the first lady's testimony, recorded at the White House last April, were played for the jury in the trial of Susan McDougal, who is charged with criminal contempt for refusing to answer Independent Counsel Kenneth Starr's questions about the loan and other aspects of the couple's Whitewater business dealings.
The new attention comes at a
sensitive time for Clinton as she considers a run for the U.S. Senate from New York.
She told the prosecutors repeatedly that she had little information to give.
"I have never seen these documents before and have no information about them," she said when asked about a 1982 Bill Clinton loan that prosecutors allege is linked through a series of transactions to a fraudulent $300,000 loan to Susan McDougal 3 1/2 years later.
Bill Clinton testified at the McDougals' trial in the spring of 1996 that he had never borrowed money from the savings and loan the McDougals owned in the 1980s. Three months later, Jim McDougal told Starr's office that Bill Clinton had signed documents for the transaction. Jim McDougal since has died.
Clinton, wearing a yellow suit and with serious expression, appeared on two television monitors in the federal court yesterday.

Serbia rejects Kosovo deal
The Associated Press
PARIS — Brushing aside Western pressure and NATO threats, Serbs said yesterday that they wouldn't accept the Kosovo peace plan that rival ethnic Albanians have agreed to sign.
Milutinovic's comments at the Paris peace talks brought closer the prospect of NATO airstrikes against Serbia. Western nations sponsoring the talks have said that the military and political components of the peace plan were inseparable.
Diplomats inside the talks, speak
Serbian President Milan Milutinovic said his side refused to accept the key part of the plan — having NATO troops implement it — and would sign the political provision only if the mediators accepted all of their complaints.
Setting up new obstacles to the proposed deal during the second day of peace talks near the Arc de Triomphe, Serbs were demanding amendments to a U.S.-sponsored plan — significant changes that foreign mediators called unacceptable.
ing on condition of anonymity, said the Serbs had proposed a list of amendments that would radically limit Kosovo Albanian autonomy and significantly change the deal.
The diplomats said if there was no progress soon with the Serbs, the negotiations might end by Friday. The United States and its Western allies will then have to decide about possible military intervention to end the Kosovo bloodshed.
The agreement would give the ethnic Albanian majority in Kosovo wide political autonomy while keeping the province within Serbia's borders.
The plan provides for 28,000 NATO troops, including up to 4,000 Americans, to enforce it — a provision Sorb-ed Yugoslavia will not accept.
British Foreign Secretary Robin Cook, who is co-chairing the talks along with French Foreign Minister Hubert Vedrine, praised the Albanian side for showing courage in promising to sign the peace plan.
"We need the Serb side to show the same courage," Cook said.

Despite international pressure.
the Serbs continued to dismiss the Albanian plan to sign.
"Unilateral signing does not mean anything." Milutinovic said.
Asked whether NATO bombing of Serbia was now more likely, he responded; "This is not out of the question, but we are not afraid of that."
In Kosovo, meanwhile, three villages were reported ablaze as Serbled government forces pushed ethnic Albanian rebels deeper into a snowy mountain range.
Senate debates scientist exchange
the Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Energy Secretary Bill Richardson urged Congress not to tamper with a foreign scientist exchange program despite the possible loss to China of secrets from national weapons labs.
abroad, including Russia
Richardson said in a Senate hearing Monday that the exchange program, which has been criticized on security grounds by some lawmakers, was not involved in a security breach at Los Alamos National Laboratory that led to the firing of one of the lab's scientists.
Thousands of scientists, including many from Russia and China, visit Energy Department weapons labs each year through a post-Cold War program that also sends American scientists to facilities
"The visitors program is not the problem - there have been no compromises from the visitors program," Richardson told reporters after testifying before the Senate Armed Services Committee.
Sen. Richard Shelby, R-Ala., demanded Monday that the administration stop the program that the Clinton administration stepped up in recent years to allow foreign scientists greater access to federal weapons labs.
"Our labs are not as secure as they should be," said Shelby, chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee.
The administration should put a moratorium on the exchange of people coming into U.S. labs and U.S. scientists going to their labs
and perhaps giving them information, he said.
Richardson disagreed. He said the exchange program was one of the most important programs that his department had in addressing the worldwide problem of nuclear proliferation.
"Let us continue running the foreign visitors, scientists program
that's one of the strengths of the department," he told the Senate panel. "We want other nations to know about our nonproliferation goals."
At the White House, spokesman Joe Lockhart told reporters: "There is an element here of partisan point-scoring that's going on, and we shouldn't put an important relationship at risk to whatever the daily political battle in Washington is."

Train crash cause investigated
（USPS 650-640）
Discrepancies exist in details of wreck
The Associated Press
BOURBONNAIS, III. — It is a railroad crossing that is supposed to be as safe as any in the country, one with modern crossing gates and flashing lights and three decades of relative peace.
Authorities insist those gates were down and the signal lights were flashing red when an Amtrak train slammed into a semitrailer loaded with steel Monday night in the nation's deadliest railroad accident since 1983.
At least 11 people were killed and more than 100 injured.
Federal investigators were hoping the engineer and the truck driver would be able to explain why the truck was straddling the tracks.
"There have been reports that possibly this truck went around the gates, and we are trying to determine if that's what happened," John Goglia of the National Transportation Safety Board said late Tuesday. "We will pursue this with vigor to determine if this is a signal problem or if in fact we have a driver problem."
There were 217 people on board the "City of New Orleans" when it crashed Monday night at a rural crossing 50 miles south of Chicago. At least three people were still missing and feared dead in the scorched and twisted wreckage.
Truck driver John Stokes, 58, told investigators that he didn't see the train approach and that the warning lights started flashing after he started across the tracks near a Birmingham Steel Co. mill.
Stokes was driving on a probationary license after receiving three speed
ing tickets in a year, authorities said.
Amtrak's chairman, Wisconsin Gov. Tommy Thompson, said Stokes was trying to dodge the crossing gates, thinking the oncoming train was a slow-moving freight train instead of a faster passenger train.
"The engineer said he saw the lights flashing, he saw the barriers down and then he saw the truck stop and try to get around it," Thompson said. "There was no way to avoid it."
Here are the key terms.
Both Stokes and the engineer were
questioned Tuesday, but investigators said the engineer was taking medication as a result of the crash and had trouble answering questions.
The two-locomotive train pulling 14 cars smashed into the truck and then into two rail cars on a siding. The cars jackknifed and piled up behind the locomotives more than a quarter-mile, with leaked diesel fuel erupting in flames.
Those killed were in a double-decker sleeping car. Authorities said a locomotive ripped into the car
crushing some passengers and setting the car ablaze.
Goglia, who is in charge of the NTSB investigation, said the black box in the lead locomotive showed the train was moving at 79 mph — the legal maximum — just before the crash. He also said the engineer was blowing his whistle and trying to stop the train.

Following Monday's train wreck, spring break plans were questionable for David Leigh and his three roommates, who were planning a trip to New Orleans, via Amtrak.
Leigh, Fort Scott freshman,
said that after considering traveling by plane, train or automobile, they had chosen train travel because it was affordable and because his three roommates had never used it before.
Tuesday, after hearing about the accident, Leigh said one of his roommates called an Amtrak office.
The group bought tickets in early February.
The group is scheduled to

Chancellor's daily work more than a desk job
In Chancellor Robert Hemenway's office, the computer sits dark and silent for most of the day. The phone rings only rarely, and the traffic in and out is minimal.

But just because it's quiet doesn't mean things aren't happening. The difference between this office of tightly controlled activity and many others is that technology doesn't rule, people do.
Face-to-face interaction is the key element in the decisions that are made from before the sun comes up until, many days, long after it goes down.
"It can be fatiguing and it can be high-pressure," Hemenway said. He described Monday as a typical day, but said typical should not be confused with uneventful.
"You have to make decisions rapidly and with confidence, and the stakes are high," he said. "What we do here impacts lives. It's challenging, but I think most
"What a game," said Mary Burg, executive assistant to the chancellor, as she walked in for an 8 a.m. meeting with Hemenway and Theresa Klinkenberg, director of administration.

On Monday morning Hemenway was running late because the University jet that carried him to and from New Orleans for the NCAA tournament Sunday didn't land in Lawrence until midnight. A late arrival for Hemenway is 7:45 a.m.; his day usually begins around 7.
The item on most people's minds in the Chancellor's Office Monday seemed to be the Kansas men's basketball team's overtime loss to the University of Kentucky the night before.

similar volunteer?"" Jensen asked.
Sgt. Steve Jensen, of the Kansas Highway Patrol, joked with the crowd of students who gathered around the patrol's rollover simulator vehicle yesterday at Wescroe Beach.
"Any volunteers? Jensen asked.
He ran the simulator once with a 60-pound dummy strapped into the seat belt inside and the machine simulated a 20- mph rollover crash.
"It really made me think, because I was in a wreck not too long ago, and people drive while they are tired or talking on the phone, and people take it for granted. People can get killed," said Samaunha Billinsvelv, Overland Park sophomore.
Next, Jensen ran the simulator with the dummy unbuckled. This time, the dummy's torso went out the driver's-side window and smashed into the ground, eventually pulling the entire dummy out onto the concrete as students looked on in surprise.
With its seat belt in place, the only portion of the dummy that left the cab of the simulator's pickup was its arm.
Jensen said that in a real crash, the pickup would have continued to roll, crushing the driver.
The demonstration was offered to raise awareness of the importance of wearing seat belts.
"This shows students what wearing seat belts can do for you in a rollover, and what not wearing seat belts can do," said Sgt. Troy Mailen of the KU Public Safety Office.
Jeff Weinberg, assistant to the Chancellor, signed a certificate of intent pledging the University's support efforts to increase seat belt use.
The certificate read: "This document certifies that the University of Kansas Police Department recognizes that safety belts and child safety seats are the most effective means of reducing fatalities and serious injuries from motor vehicle crashes. Hereby, the undersigned pledges to promote and support the use of safety belts and child safety seats, making unbuckled unacceptable."
Mickey DeHook, Kansas Law Enforcement liaison on occupant protection, said that the certificate was an important way for the University to support usage of safety belts.
"It's important because it supports not only law enforcement's efforts, but it also sends the signal out to people that the University of Kansas supports the use of safety belts," DeHook said.
He said that many people still thought it was a matter of personal choice to wear a seat belt.
"It's just the right thing to do." DeHook said. "Everyone pays for people that aren't buckled up when they're involved in a crash through higher taxes, higher health care and higher insurance costs."
He said that there were still many people who need to be convinced to change their attitudes and wear their seat belts.
"Kansas has a 59 percent safety belt compliance rate and the national average is 69 percent, so we have a lot of work to do." DeHook said. "If we can change attitudes and get people to buckle up, we can reduce traffic fatalities."

Suicide victim's identity still unknown to police
Police have been unable to identify an African-American man who shot himself in the head at 12:40 a.m. yesterday, said Sgt. George Wheeler of the Lawrence Police Department.
The man, who had a passenger in the car, was stopped by police for speeding at 12:30 a.m. in the parking lot of the Lawrence Journal-World, 609 New Hampshire St., Wheeler said.
After talking to the driver, the officer had gone back to his car when the passenger got out and said that the driver had a gun. The officer attempted to talk the driver into putting down the gun, when the driver inflicted a fatal gunshot to his right temple with a handgun, Wheeler said.
The man had no identification on him and the passenger said he didn't know the driver, who had picked him up on the side of the road, Wheeler said.

Chimp taken to Wichita following attack at zoo
SALT LAKE CITY — Tammy, the sole surviving chimpanzee at Utah's Hogle Zoo following an attack on a zoo worker, will soon have a new home at a zoo in Wichita.
Meanwhile, zoo director Craig Dinnore will be in Indianapolis today to ask the American Zoological and Aquarium Association to restore full accreditation for the zoo.
The zoo's accreditation was tabled essentially placed on probation a year ago because of problems with veterinary care, maintenance operations and emergency procedures.
Dismore said Tuesday that he was confident that the zoo's accreditation would be approved.
The zoo's three chimps — Chip,
Hapay and Tammy — escaped their
cage in the Great Ape Building Feb. 27 and got into a service area, Chip attacked Jamie Bradley, 28, who was cleaning the gorilla cage. The zoo's new primate supervisor, Kim Tropea, 35, suffered minor injuries when she shewed herself on Bradley to protect him.
Bradley, who lost a finger and part of his nose, remained in fair condition Tuesday at University Hospital.
Tammy was placed in a crate yesterday and trucked to the Sedgwick County Zoo in Wichita, where she will join 12 other chimps and have access to a 2-year-old, lush outdoor habitat — something Hogle Zoos lacks for apes, said Hogle Zoos spokeswoman Jan Murphy.
Report says marijuana helps fight pain, nausea
WASHINGTON — The active ingredients in marijuana can help fight pain and nausea and thus deserve to be tested in scientific trials, a federal advisory panel said today in a report sure to reignite the debate about whether marijuana is a helpful or harmful drug.
The Institute of Medicine also said there was no conclusive evidence that marijuana use leads to the use of harder drugs.
Congress has taken a hard line on the issue, with the House last fall adopting a resolution that said marijuana was a dangerous and addictive drug and should not be legalized for medical use.
Asked to examine the issue by the White House drug policy office, the institute, which is an affiliate of the National Academy of Sciences, said that because the chemicals in marijuana ease anxiety, stimulate the appetite, ease pain and reduce nausea and vomiting, they can be helpful for people undergoing chemotherapy and people with AIDS.
But the panel warned that smoking marijuana can cause respiratory disease and called for the development of standardized forms of the drugs, called cannabinoids, that can be taken, for example, by inhaler.
The White House Office of National Drug Control Policy said it would carefully study the recommendations.
Drug trafficking inquiry shut down in Mexico
The New York Times reported Tuesday that the administration ended the probe several weeks after undercover customs agents were told by bankers working with Mexico's most powerful cocaine cartel that General Enrique Cervantes was a client who wanted money laundered.
WASHINGTON — The Mexican embassy has formally asked the Clinton administration to respond to charges from a former U.S. Customs official that his undercover probe into Mexican drug trafficking was shut down after the name of Mexico's defense minister surfaced in it.
schedule rather than extend it to explore information involving Cervantes, particularly in view of intelligence reports "pointing to corruption at the highest levels of the Mexican military," the Times said.
Colleges protest abuse of overseas workers
The customs agents were mystified by the decision to end the investigation on
BOSTON — Some of the nation's most prestigious colleges want to make sure their names aren't on caps and sweatshirts made in overseas sweatshops for pennies a day.
Seventeen schools — including Harvard, Brown, Princeton and Duke — this week joined a national group set up to curb worker abuses overseas.
The schools made the announcement two weeks after protesters across the nation, many of them students, demonstrated against corporate giants for allegedly abusing overseas workers.
But student activists said Tuesday that they were outraged by the move because the group, the Fair Labor Association, is supported largely by apparel manufacturers such as Nike Inc. and Phillips-Van Heusen.
"The Student Labor Association is furious that this decision was made behind our back," said Nora Rosenberg, a member of a Brown-based student group that opposes sweatshops.
The Fair Labor Association evolved from a group of 18 apparel manufacturers and retailers formed after the news broke that young Chinese women were making Katie Lee Gifford handbags for Wal-Mart at 13 cents a day.

Slow progress impedes peace-making process
PARIS — The United States has warned that time is running out for a Kosovo peace deal, and Serbs have raised new objections to a draft agreement that rival ethnic Albanians agreed to sign.
As talks opened yesterday, the Albanian side claimed the Serbs were trying to change 70 percent of the proposed political agreement — changes that would give the ethnic Albanian majority even less autonomy than it has now.
Brushing aside Western pressure and NATO threats, Serbian President Milan Milutinovic said Tuesday that his side rejected an integral part of the plan — NATO troops to police it — and would sign only the politicalpart granting ethnic Albanians limited autonomy under the precondition that the mediators accept all of their complaints.
Milutinovic's comments on the second day of Paris peace talks brought closer the prospect of NATO airstrikes against Serbia.
The diplomats said if there was no progress soon with the Serbs, negotiations could end by Friday.

Eleven killed in fatal crash of Amtrak train
Continued from page 1A
A private study released last month found that more than 80 percent of the nation's railroad crossings—about 130,000—lack gates and light signals to pedestrians and motorists of trains.
Mike Stead, head of rail safety at the ICC, said the gates were intact, and authorities have not been able to verify where the truck was at the time of impact or when the gates were lowered.
But near the Bourbounnais crash site, two gates block the narrow two-lane road, which provides access to the nearby mill. The gates and lights at the crossing appeared to have been functioning at the time of the crash, said David Farrell, a spokesman for the Illinois Commerce Commission.
Sensors turn on the lights and bells 26 seconds before a train reaches the crossing, and five seconds later the gates come down, Farrell said. Officials said the gates did not malfunction and were last inspected Feb. 24.
There have been three deaths at the crossing in the last 35 years, in 1964, 1968 and 1988. Forty trains and 1,000 vehicles use the crossing daily.
Authorities have not released the names of the victims. The Commercial Appeal in Memphis reported today that the victims included a woman and three children from Nesbitt, Miss., who were returning from a doll show in Chicago.
June Bonin, 47; her 12-year-old granddaughter, Jessica Whitaker; Rainy Lipschub, 10; and Lacey Lipschub, 8, were killed. Another girl, Bonin's daughter, was injured.

Student Senate passes budget bill
Senators debate funds for papers
By Nadia Mustafa nmustafa.kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
The Student Senate budget bill emerged intact last night after more than two hours of what many senators interpreted as partisan bickering.
The bill, which was submitted by the Senate Finance Committee, allocated $660,614 in funds to more than 40 student organizations for the next academic year. Senate, which could either pass or fail the budget without amendments, voted in favor of the bill.
Debate centered around a line-item allocation of $1,000 to the Greeks Achieving Leadership Excellence, a newsletter published by the KU Greek community. Senators were divided about whether Senate should finance a publication with a relatively narrow readership and limited distribution.
The *GALE* is distributed to KU fraternities and sororities and to the Organi
izations and Leadership Center in the Kansas Union.
Some senators also were concerned that the GALE was only a mouthpiece of the Greek community, which could survive without Senate financing.
Mark Horowitz, graduate senator, said that he was concerned that the GALE was not available to a majority of students.
"But we made the strategic choice although we recognized that it wasn't right," he said.
The strategic choice, Horowitz said, was recognizing the risk involved with not financing the GALE. Following debate about the narrow scope of GALE readership, some senators retrieved and distributed copies of the Kaw Valley Independent, which was allocated $4,574 through the Senate Alternative Media Subcommittee.
Scott Kaiser, student body vice president, similarly attacked the KV7's focus and leadership, alleging that it was a leftist publication aimed at a specific portion of the Lawrence community. He said that the KVI endorsed Delta Force during Senate elections last year and that it referred to Republicans as "Republicans."
In addition, Kaiser said, the KVI had survived without financing from Senate
for a year. He said that both the GALE and the KVI had narrow focuses.
Copies of the GALE were not available for Senate.
Horowitz said that many senators thought that if they voted against the budget, senators in favor of financing the GALE would later cut financing for the KVI.
Matt Dunbar, holdover senator and co-chairman of the Alternative Media Subcommittee, said that there was political pressure involved in the passage of the budget.
He said many senators were still opposed to Kaiser's rationale, which would set a precedent that threatened freedom of expression.
"Many senators are concerned about the tendency toward censorship or not trying to foster as many diverse viewpoints as possible." Horowitz said.
"I think that in the name of one person speaking up, people voted on the issue of picking up the greater good of the situation," he said.
Dunbar said that even though the bill passed, he was glad that Senate extensively debated the issue.
"Everybody had the right to express their opinions in a political realm," he said.

Senate approves funds for Earth Day rally
By Jennifer Roush
joshn@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Student Senate voted to give money to KU Environs for an Earth Day celebration that will include music, dance troupes and speakers.
The Senate gave the group $5,400 to pay talent fees for musician Casey Neill and environmental activist Adam Werbach. The celebration will be from noon to 6 p.m. April 24 at the South Park gazebo.
Neill is a folk-rock singer who has performed at Earth First! rallies across the nation.
When he was 23, Werbach was the youngest Sierra Club president in the organization's 104-year history. He left that position for his current job as president of the Sierra Student Coalition. He also wrote the book "Act Now, Apologize Later."
Matt Dunbar, KU Environs president, and Deidre Backs, KU Environs member, are two of the seven senators who initiated the bill.
Backs said that the bill would only pay for the national talent, and that other event expenses would be paid from the group's organization allocation.
She said that there would be speakers and musicians from the Lawrence community and University of Kansas at the event.
The speakers will include Cynthia Annett, assistant professor of ecology and evolutionary biology; Jorge Soberson, Museum of Natural History employee; Bev Worster, of the Douglas County Preservation Alliance, and Bruce Plenk, a local attorney.
In addition to the Senate bill preparations, the group also is talking to local businesses about selling vegetarian snacks at the Earth Day celebration.
Backs said that Free State Brewery, 636 Massachusetts St., and Sylas and Maddy's Home Made Ice Cream, 1014 Massachusetts St., already had agreed to participate.
She said that she expected about 600 people to attend the celebration,which will be free to the public.
"People seem to be really receptive to this," she said. "This is a really unique event. It's the first time in a long time that the University and the community have been involved in something like this."
Dunbar said that he wasn't surprised that the Student Senate was supportive of the idea.
"I think a lot of people are really interested in this instead of wanting to shoot it down." Dunbar said.
R. J. Woodring, Nunemaker senator, said that Senate was enthusiastic about KU Environs' Earth Day celebration.

"I think we are excited to help be a part of this." Woodring said. "It's something that's good for the University and the students, especially educating them about global issues and the environment."

Show celebrates power of words
By Katrina Hull Special to the Kansan
The performance began in darkness with only words, leaving the audience to create its own images.
Two Emmy-winning actors presented "Behind the Broken Words," a dramatic interpretation of poetry and verse, last night before an audience of about 75 people at Woodruff Auditorium in the Kansas Union.
Anthony Zerbe and Roscoe Lee Browne recited poems and selections from 21 different writers, said Ann Patrice Carrigan, managing director of the show.
The setting was small and intimate, with only two chairs and a
table Zerbie and Browne were dressed casually in jeans and boots.
"There are many themes, including love and war," Carrigan said. "It's about what you find."
Stephanie Sapienza, Overlane Park senior, said she liked the informal dress and setting because it allowed her to focus on the poetry.
She said her favorite poem of the evening was "Aria Da Capo" by Edna St. Vincent Millay. The poem is a dialogue between two shepherds separated by a wall.
"Millay portrayed the dramatic way relationships progress and human vices get in the way of friendships," Sapienza said.
Carrigan said that what was interesting about the selections was that even though most were written in the 1940s, they still applied to what is going on today.
"Junkman's Obligato" by Lawrence Ferlinghetti, is a conversion between two burned-out businessmen. Carrigan said.
She said the businessmen wanted to get beyond the words that didn't mean anything and create their own meanings.
Scott McMurray, Coffeyville graduate student, said the show's power came from its words that evoked imagination. He said that scenery would have been pointless.
McMurray said the conclusion of "Behind the Broken Words" made him realize that people did not know how to use language and that poetry was becoming nonexistent.
He said the small attendance at a performance by two well-spoken people confirmed this for him.
"It's beyond an absolute shame more students didn't turn out." McMurray said.

Smoke-free policy for entryways should be applied to all entrances
Recently, a student complained to Services for Students with Disabilities that she was having trouble breathing on her way to class because of the thickness of the cigarette smoke outside the buildings.
In response, a committee was formed to discuss preventing this problem. It has decided that all buildings on campus should have at least one doorway where smoking is prohibited. This new policy will be implemented through posted signs, and ashtrays would be removed from the area. Smokers would have to remain at least 30 feet away.
It is necessary for this policy to be reexamined. Everyone has the right to attend class in a healthy environment. However, this plan only would be effective under certain conditions.
First, the plan should not designate a non-smoking doorway. Instead, it
Consistency, enforcement needed to ensure that smoke less doorway policy works.
should create a uniform policy that includes all doorways.
The right to smoke can infringe on others when secondhand smoke wafts its way into the lungs of someone who is sensitive or allergic to it. It is silly to suggest that students adversely affected by smoke change their paths to and from class to include the single smokeless entryway, which may be on another side of a building or, in the case of a building like Wescoe, on another floor. Designating only one non-smoking doorway inconveniences some students so others may indulge in a habit.
Second, the plan should not be enacted without enforcement. Campus public safety officers or another group should be assigned the duty of checking nonsmoking areas. If a sign is the only enforcement, conflict is inevitable. Smokers may not be as courteous and obliging to other students as they would to a member of law enforcement.
It is true that many smokers will miss the warmth of the doorways and the shelter that many campus buildings provide against adverse weather. Students who are sensitive to smoke who must pass through cigarette smoke to attend class already are suffering.
The smokeless doorway policy is a good first step. Ensuring the effectiveness of the policy about smoking outside of buildings is a necessary next step for the University of Kansas.

Former student leaves lasting legacy
Watkins' story is about a young woman who went out into the world to make a difference—and did.
Students should not be discouraged by the murder of Amy Watkins, a 1996 KU graduate in social welfare. Instead they should focus on the courage with which she lived.
At 26, her life already had made an impact on many individuals. She would have wanted her life to encourage others to go out into the world and make a difference as well, said Alice Lieberman, associate professor of social welfare and one of Watkins' former instructors.
Lieberman said she remembered everything about Watkins — where she sat, the papers she wrote and that she was a beautiful person who radiated

woman both in New York and at the Hope House in Missouri when she attended the University of Kansas.
"Amy would have been thrilled to know all the people paying tribute to her." Lieberman said. "That doesn't happen unless you live life in the way that she did."
Lieberman said that sometimes in social work, the plight of helping women is romanticized, when in actuality it is ugly, messy and brings out the worst in people.
Watkins worked with battered
"Amy saw the messiness of human beings at their worst and made them better people," she said.
Memorial services for Watkins will be held today at the Trinity Episcopal Church in Lawrence at 7 p.m.
The randomness of Watkins' death is a reminder that life is short and time can't be wasted on what is not important. Time spent helping others is never wasted.

Pursuit of selfish goals spurs abuse of power

I started seeing horses and
I decided that I also was going to travel. I would go to
Venezuela, Trinidad and
Curacao. I would go to visit my friends, go dancing and
see the beaches.
So I called around and found a reasonable fare with an airline that assured me it could take me there on Dec. 29 and bring me back to Kansas on Jan. 16, just in time for me to pick up my friends and start the semester. Besides meeting my
obgation to my Friends, I was scheduled to start teaching on Jan. 19. Thank God, I did meet all my obligations. The airline was American Airlines.
But that was in December and January. If I had been scheduled to travel in February, I would have been stranded in Venezuela. I would not have been able to pick up my friends at the airport. I would have missed the classes that I am taking, and my French 120 students would have been without an instructor for God knows how long.
First of all, they lied. If you are not sick and you call in sick, you are lying. And for a pilot who, on a typical flight, can carry hundreds on passengers, it is a serious offense. Second, the legitimacy of the pilots' dispute with the airline did not justify the pain and disruption they caused to the thousands of American Airlines passengers who use the airline every day. There were physicians who had to see a patient, or patients who had to see a doctor. There were lovers who had to see their beloved, friends who had to meet friends, or teachers who had to meet their students. Many of these people may have been hurt beyond repair because the pilots abused their power.
I travel a lot, and whenever I do, I never take anything for granted. I always marvel at the power of the human mind that invented a plane that can take me thousands of miles across the seas in a few hours. I marvel at the airlines' ground crews who make sure that my reservation is secure and that I catch the right flight at the right time. I admire the flight attendants who make sure that I am comfortable during the flight. I especially marvel at the intelligence and skill of the team of pilots who fly my soul at the appointed time and allow me to meet my obligations. That is a valuable service. That is a great power.
power that the pilots have.
Last month, though, the American Airlines pilots abused their power. Encouraged by their labor union, the Allied Pilots Association, they started calling in sick beginning Feb. 6, and as a result, thousands of flights were canceled and thousands of passengers stranded. The pilots certainly had a legitimate labor dispute. The method they used, however, might have been legal because nobody can force them to fly when they think that there are circumstances that put such mental stress on them that it would be unsafe for them to fly. But it was an abuse of the tremendous
Many people say that threatening to use force or actually using force is a good bargaining tool. Whenever a dispute looms in the horizon, many people tend to flex their muscles to gain a bargaining advantage in the negotiations.
But I would say that unless you are specifically trained in self-control, the way martial artists are, and know how to control power, you are not fit to use it. The kind of force used in most negotiations, once unleashed, is almost impossible to control. We intuitively know this, and we condemn governments around the world when they abuse their tremendous power. For instance, once the U.S. and British airplanes unleash their missiles over Iraq, there is no telling what damage the weapons can do. Even the so-called smart bombs are not so smart. A smart bomb, for instance, cannot distinguish between a military target and a civilian one. It cannot say, "I am supposed to be directed only at military targets. Here is a kindergarten, and the children are playing. I am not going to hit it, or, if I hit it, I am not going to explode."
We also know about police brutality, especially against minorities. The New York City police officers who unleashed 41 bullets on Amadou Diallo, an unarmed African immigrant, probably thought they could use "controlled force." But who can control the force of bullets after they have left a gun?
Whether we are a government that oppresses here or abroad, a police force that tramples on civil rights, baseball or basketball team owners or players, airline owners or pilots who want more money, or any other group in pursuit of personal interests, abuse of power is abuse of power.
Is it right to purposefully disrupt the lives of those we are supposed to serve?

Kansan intended no insult
Jeremy Doherty goin@kansan.com
Claibourn said it was his decision to use the word gimp as a reference to a scene in the 1994 film Pulp Fiction. The two students were intending to poke fun at the movie's use of sadomasochistic, sexual imagery. The Kansan photographer on the scene, Eric Sahrmann, reported about his subjects and their skit in writing his accompanying caption for the photograph
A caption beneath a front page photo of a student dressed in bondage gear in Tuesday's University Daily Kansan has provoked some concerns by several readers.
For their assignment, Claibourn and Rowe went to Wescoe Beach on Monday. Claibourn was decked out in combat boots, black trousers and a black leather S&M mask. Rowe held Claibourn at bay with a leash attached to a collar around his classmate's neck.
*dansan* editors thought that readers would understand this pop-culture reference. No
The photo depicted two students from a basic video production class. The assignment required the students to complete a public service announcement, and the two sophomores, Bryan Claibourn and Tyler Rowe, created and enacted a skit titled, Leash Law for Gimps.
A
The caption has drawn criticism from persons on campus who were concerned that the Kansan was belittling persons with physical disabilities.
This includes the use of the word "gimp," a familiar phrase in today's youth culture. The Kansan is confident that most readers understood its presence in the newspaper.
Nevertheless, what occurred Monday on Wesco Beach was just that a parody. Pulp Fiction still is a popular movie. Its soundtrack remains popular at parties. Students have memorized chunks of its dialogue, working it into their everdav conversations.
in the hope of clarifying the caption's intent, some explanation of the situation is needed.
Doherty is an Olathe senior in journalism and is the associate editorial editor.
Tamara Falicov, assistant professor of film and lecturer in the basic video production course, said that Claibourn and Rowe incorrectly performed the assignment. Parodying a public service announcement was not in the guidelines.
Feedback
Music critic off the mark with review
I believe if someone is going to review a show, they should have at least some concept of the biography and sound of the band. Your music boy missed the mark totally with his review of the Placebo show in Monday's Kansan.
First of all, Mr. Ox should learn to get his facts straight. I think that's the major tenet of journalism. If he'd done just a little research, looking at a discography that's easily found, he would have noticed that the songs weren't from Placebo's debut CD, but rather their second CD.
"That never entered our mind," Claibourn said. "When you see the skit, you know that it's not making fun of anyone with disabilities."
doubt, some grief may have been avoided had the caption mentioned *Pulp Fiction* by name. Regrettably, some readers did not understand the movie reference or that the skit's title had, in fact, been used in the caption.
In the scene of the movie, actor Bruce Willis portrays a boxer who literally is on the run from gangsters. In panic, Willis' character hides out in a pawn shop that is operated by a pair of rustic fellows who engage in kinky sexual acts. As Willis is about to be tortured, his captors bring out a man, who is dressed entirely in black leather and is referred to as "the Gimp."
Claibour and Rowe developed their skit in homage to this distinctive scene. Claibour said that the routine in no way was a veiled insult at people with disabilities.
My second complaint is maybe Mr. Cox should actually listen to the album before reviewing the band. I honestly don't believe he had heard Placebo before, except on the radio. If he had listened, maybe he would've noticed that Placebo sounded the same live as they did on the CD. Maybe it had to do with where he was standing, or maybe he needed to step back from the bar for a bit.
Granted, Stabbing Westward was the headliner of the show. Most people were there to hear Stabbing Westward, myself included. But there are some people who went to see Placebo also. My advice to Mr. Cox is to actually talk to people
at the show or move a little closer so that he can understand the vibe of the show. They definitely displayed "enough punch, energy, and diversity of musicianship" from where I was.
Maybe I'm taking this a little too seriously, but I think the Kansan music boy needs to be a more objective listener. I agree with him when he says that the lack of bass added an interesting effect to the show, but I don't think he gave a fair representation of the band. And, I'm sorry, but I was under the impression that a review was meant to be objective.

Chicano activist speaks at KU
By Dan Curry

Kansan staff writer
It costs $700 for Irma Muniz to travel to see her husband, Ramiro "Ramsey" Muniz, the former Texas gubernatorial candidate who led the Chicano Civil Rights Movement in Texas in the early 70s.
When she sees him — every seven months or so — they don't go out to dinner or call for room service.
She just looks into his eyes and says nothing, waiting for him to speak, as they sit together within the confines of the Leavenworth Federal Penitentiary.
"He's an extraordinary man," Irma Mulliz said.
Ramsey Muniz was a Baylor University football star, a practicing lawyer and a key figure in the Raza Unida Party that swept Chicano persons into Texas political offices in the 1970s.
"He's a leader — he doesn't belong in there," Irma Muniz said last night to 20 people at a speech sponsored by Latin American Solidarity and the newly formed Leavenworth Political Prisoners Support Group.
Roberto Izarry, San Juan, Puerto Rico graduate student and a founder of the Leavenworth Political Prisoners Support Group, said that his group was not affiliated with any particular political movement.
Irma Muniz's speech at the Ecumenical Christian Ministries building, 1204 Oread Ave., was the group's first event.
Irma Muniz spoke about her husband's political achievements as a leader for the Raza Unida Party and his subsequent struggles with the law.
Ramsey Muniz ran for the Texas governorship in 1972 and 1974, receiving only 6 percent of the vote in his best race.
"He upset, through his actions, a lot of local elections," Irma Muñiz said. "Prior to that, we had no voice."
She said his platform called for giving the right to vote to foreigners, fair distribution of wealth, removal of trade embargoes, economic sanctions against Cuba and the implementation of equal minority representation in the judicial system.
Irma Muniz said her husband had spent ten quiet years married to her, finding lawyers for Chicano people in Texas.
"I can tell you we lived a very happy life, a very beautiful life," she said.
Irmu Muhiz said these issues and others made her husband a threat to the establishment and a target of the Drug Enforcement Agency.
In his third run-in with the DEA, Irma Muniz said Ramsey Muniz was driving his client's car two miles to his client's new motel. The DEA found 40 kilograms of cocaine in the trunk.
Ramsey Muniz was convicted of a third felony drug charge, which by federal law mandates a life sentence without parole.
"One day the truth about his past will be known." Irma Muniz said.
Irizarry said that the Leavenworth Political Prisoners Support Group would continue to schedule speakers who talk about political prisoners in Leavenworth.
The objective of the group is to consolidate support for all political prisoners inside Leavenworth, he said.
Anyone interested in joining the group can contact the Leonard Peltier Defense Committee at 842-5774.

Senator to represent Daisy Hill
Templin Revolution member seeks re-election on Delta Force ticket
By Nadia Mustafa

Kansas staff writer
A member of Templin Revolution wants to represent the concerns of Daisy Hill residents in Student Senate next year.
J. D. Jenkins, Templein Revolution president and Shawnee sophomore, has filed a petition to run as a Delta Force candidate for a Nunemaker senator seat.
Templin Revolution, which is composed of more than 30 Templin Hall residents and other students, works to improve Templin and provides its residents with an additional or alternative form of representation and participation. The group also supports freedom of expression and student, faculty and staff rights.
Jenkins joined the Senate Student
Rights committee last fall and has been a Nunemaker senator since February, when he was chosen as a replacement senator.
He said that if elected, he would work on issues such as campus safety, public transportation and safety at the intersection of 15th Street and Engel Road.
"The main thing is representing people on Daisy Hill and voicing their opinions." Jenkins said.
Jenkins said that Templin Revolution allied with Delta Force for the campaign because both organizations wanted to effect change within Senate and on campus.
"We need hard-working people who are interested in doing things that will be good for students instead of keeping the status quo." Jenkins said.
Jenkins said that he and some other Templin residents initiated Templin Revolution as a joke last fall. He said that the residents became serious about the organization following controversy last semester about an allegedly libelous
"Before that, I was just involved in my little world in Templein." Jenkins said. "But after meeting with different campus organizations, we got a better understanding of what was going on on campus, and we decided that we could actually do something."
Now, Jenkins tells the organization's goal is to mobilize voters on Daisy Hill by recognizing issues important to them through a series of visits.
"Maybe their voices aren't being heard enough in Senate," he said.
Yesterday was the deadline for candidates to file with the elections commission.
Jennifer Watkins, elections commissioner, said that the commission had to count signatures on candidates' petitions, so senatorial candidacies would not be official until March 30.
Delta Force has 53 senator candidates and YOU coalition has 59. Three independent candidates also are running.

between that role and his background as an English professor.
"It's a teaching situation," Hemenway said. "You have information you want to communicate, and you want to share it effectively."
"The Red Cross serves people in need," he said as he handed a cup to one thirsty student who didn't have any money to donate.
PETER M. HELMAN
Later, Hemenway was in yet another role wearing a Red Cross hard hat and hawking lemonade in front of Strong Hall.
"Today I was a dutiful father, at least for an hour," he joked.
Organizers noted that some students seemed curious about the stand but shook their heads shyly when asked if they wanted to donate.
Hemenway said he tried to combine work and family when he could, such as last weekend when he took his son Zack, 15, with him to New Orleans for the basketball game.
Frederick said students probably didn't reaccomiz them.
"They're more intimidated by Bob Frederick than they are by me," Hemenway said. "They're afraid he might be in a bad mood."
"They're probably wondering. Who are those guys, standing out there in suits?" Frederick said.
Continued from page 1A
hemenway said he often met his wife, Leah, for walks around campus, which gave them time to talk about the kids.
Because a previous appointment had been canceled, Hemenway was able to meet his son Matt, 23, for lunch.
The MASS STREET DELI
"It's a symbiotic relationship," he said. "The community of Lawrence helps the University, and the University helps the community."
Hemenway said that although selling lemonade was unusual for him, he often spent up to two hours a day away from his desk and meetings interacting with the public, whether welcoming a visiting group to campus, speaking to a chamber of commerce or attending a board meeting for a nonprofit group.
"I always try to put Arna to bed at 9, which gives us a chance to talk," he said, Arna, 11, is Hemenway's youngest son. "I'd say three out of five nights I'm able to do that."

But on Monday, a talk with Arna would have to wait because the chancellor's schedule was full until 10 p.m. The afternoon was made up of more meetings, one with a committee to discuss progress on a landscape master plan, one with a faculty member to plan a visit to Ukraine in June 2001 and a weekly meeting with Burg, his executive assistant.
"I know you have nothing to read," said Maria Carlson, associate professor of Slavic languages and literatures, as she handed Hemenway a folder of information about the Ukraine trip. They discussed what other countries to visit and who should accompany the chancellor.
At 6 p.m. the sky was darkening, but Hemenway's day wasn't finished. After a bite to eat, it was off to the Kansas Union to interview graduating seniors as part of a general education assessment and review.
"I will essentially turn myself over to you." Hemenway told Carlson. "I want to show support for the University's programs there and come back with a better understanding of them."
"I sometimes miss the contemplative time," Hemenway said. "I try to snatch an hour when I can."
After the meeting with Burg, Hemenway had a few rare, quiet minutes to answer e-mail and work on notes for a class he teaches at his home, The Outlook, on Lilac Lane.

Later, at home, he chatted with freshman honors students as they arrived for their tutorial. Part of the chancellor's job at the University is to teach one class each
semester.
The discussion focused on The Last Cattle Drive, a novel by KU alumnus Robert Day. Hemenway tried to get the students to define and support their opinions about the characters and themes of the novel.
"What is the tension here?" he asked. "Is this about the corruption of civilization versus the pristine forces of nature? Or is it a tale of the absurd?"

Jayhawks' effort ignored by CBS sportscasters
Spring is in the air.
With just two days before spring break, students are getting themselves ready for a week of beaches, booze, and plenty of warm, warm sun. On Friday, the campus will clear out as students head anywhere but here.
Except for me.
I'll be here in Lawrence, kicking it with the rest of the kids who couldn't get their act together for spring break. Who knows, maybe it will be a blessing in disguise. I might actually figure out what I'm going to do with my life after graduation.

■ Weren't you all a little perturbed by the announcing during Sunday's Kansas-Kentucky game? Normally CBS's Billy Packer and Jim Nantz do an admirable job covering basketball, but for some reason they decided to turn last Sunday's game into a Kentucky lovefest.
It seemed that every chance they got, Packer and Nantz were praising the Wildcats for their great play, their great tradition and their great coach. If you didn't know better, you would have thought that Kentucky was winning by 10-15 points the entire game.
Even when Kansas did something good, Packer and Nantz were too busy lavishing Kentucky with compliments to notice.
You can't help but wonder what might have been if Roy's boys had made it to St. Louis . . .
Speaking of the Jayhawks . . . Even though Kansas lost in the second round, you couldn't help but be proud of the Jayhawks' performance against Kentucky. The entire team played with heart and hustle, putting together its best performance of the season. Every player on the team was focused and intense, especially Ryan Robertson, who seemed to take his playing to another level.
How long has Scott Padgett been at Kentucky?
To the chagir of my Russian Foreign Policy professor, my beloved Manchester United finished off Inter Milan in the quarterfinals of the European Champions League yesterday.
Sorry, Professor Danieri, but Rupert Murdoch never loses at anything.
As much as I can't stand British boxers, Lennox Lewis clearly is the best heavyweight in the world. Anyone who had the privilege of watching the great sham at Madison Square Garden Saturday saw Lewis treat Evander Holyfield as is he were a scared little boy. From start to finish, Lewis peppered Holyfield with clear, crisp shots.
Maybe before the rematch Holyfield should spend a little less time preaching the gospel on the Trinity Broadcast Network and a little more time formulating a serious boxing strategy.
Did you ever think that the Oklahoma Sooners will be the final Big 12 team left in the NCAA tournament?
Did he bring it up, said that I did.
But you can't take anything away from the Sooners. They beat two quality teams, Arizona and UNC-Charlotte, and now have a chance to doing even more damage in St. Louis. A win against Michigan State is hardly out of the question. Of all the No.1 seeds, the Spartans appear to be the most vulnerable.
Even if the Sooners lose, you can bet that they will be a pre-season Top-10 team next year and star forward Eduardo Najera will be on the short list for player of the year.

Thrower from Canada sets records at Kansas
sports@kansan.com
Kansan sportswriter
As a high school senior in Windsor, Ontario, Scott Russell had never heard of the 35-pound weight throw.
Much like the hammer throw, the weight throw is a mix of technique and brute strength. An athlete will spin in a circle three or four times, twirling the 35-pound ball above his head, pivot and release the weight.
But unlike the hammer throw, a traditional Olympic event, the weight throw is relatively new and reserved for indoor meets.
"It's really only an American event," Russell said. "Up there, we had the javelin and shot put, but not the weight throw."
When Russell earned a track scholarship to the University of Kansas, the javelin and shot put were his bread and butter.
But when he separated his shoulder before the indoor season of his freshman year, the event he'd never heard of became his main course.
A right-handed thrower, Russell was unable to practice the shot put, but the weight throw enabled him to keep practicing. In the weight throw, an athlete grips the weight with his left hand, and wraps his right hand over his left. Most of the weight is then supported with the left arm.
"It was the only event that I could practice because of my shoulder. But, I think that's the reason that I excelled so quickly." Russell said.
As a freshman, Russell placed second at the NCAA Indoor Championships and broke the Big 12 Conference record. It was a record that he would fifth four more times this season, and he finished fifth at nationals this year.
The weight throw had given Russell an opportunity to showcase his ability, but it was an ability that almost did not make it to Kansas.
Russell, who was a four-sport athlete in high school, received basketball scholarship offers from Marquette, Eastern Michigan and Detroit universities. Detroit received an NCAA tournament bid this year and upset UCLA in the first round.
Although Russell does not regret his decision, he concedes that it would have been fun to play in the NCAA tournament.
What about for Roy Williams and the Jayhawks?
"It'd be fun to go to the Roy Williams basketball walk-on camp." Russell said.
At 6-foot-9 and 275 pounds, Russell would be intimidating on the court. As it is, he is intimidating on the field when he twirls the 35-pound weight above his head and hurls it more than 70 feet.
That ability made him the third-ranked thrower in college this season, demolishing the competition all season.
"I learned early that he always goes out and pushes himself harder and harder," said Lorri LaRowe, Kansas throw coach. "He goes for more every time, in competition and practice."
Russell's parents, Don and Cheryl, saw that competitive nature early and encouraged Russell to play as many sports as he wanted.
He played football, basketball, track and volleyball in high school and junior high. When he spruced seven inches between his sophomore year and senior year of high school, basketball and volleyball became easier. At 6-foot-7 and 220 pounds, Russell averaged close to 19 points and 12 rebounds a game in basketball but he enjoyed volleyball even more — especially hitting a volleyball.
"When you hit a ball and tee off on somebody's head, making them look pretty stupid, well, that's a lot of fun," he said.
Football seniors show off for NFL

The National Football League followed the yellow brick road into Kansas yesterday, as 15 NFL coaches and scouts stopped by Anschutz Sports Pavilion to evaluate the talent of eight Javahawk seniors.
The seniors, which included Kansas standouts Michael Allen, Hanson Caston, Dan Dercher and J.J. Johnson, were asked to complete a series of strength and agility tests, ranging from the 40-yard-dash to bench press.
Dercher, a senior offensive lineman was the only participant in yesterday's drills to be invited to the NFL Scouting Combine in Indianapolis last month. Yesterday's workout proved to be a chance for the other seniors to show that they can take their games to the next level.
"Only a selected number of guys get to go to the combine, so today is really important for them," Jayhawk coach Terry Allen said. "For as many scouts that are here today to come and take a look at these guys, I think it's great."
For the scouts and coaches, yesterday provided a chance to find a "diamond in the rough" who can become an impact player for their respective teams.
While no Jayhawk is projected to be a high draft pick (no Kansas player is listed on draft guru Mel
"You never know when you'll find the next Anthony Munoz or Joe Montana," Chicago Bears offensive line coach Bob Wylie said.
Dercher stopped participating in yesterday's workout after pulling a hamstring while running the 40-yard dash, but the inactivity won't hurt his status because of his participation in the combine.
"I just want to get drafted," said Dercher, who played offensive line for Kansas last season. "I don't care where, and I don't care by who. Everyone's goal growing up is to get drafted, and I think it's realistic."
"I if you better at the combine than I do here, my best scores count." Dercher said. "It's basically a win-win situation."
Dercher turned the heads of many onlookers, among them St. Louis Rams' representative Ted Plumb.
One Jayhawk who has a high likelihood to be drafted come April 17-18 is Dercher.
Kiper's Top-50 list), often players drafted in the later rounds can turn scouts into geniuses. 1998 NFL MVP Terrell Davis of the Denver Broncos was drafted 196th overall in the 6th round of the 1995 draft.
"Certainly we feel that there's some talent here at Kansas that will probably be drafted." Plumb said.
Plumb knows the area well, having coached under former
Jawhawk coach Dumfamourn from 1979-73.
"Anything you can do to get exposure to the coaches always hebs." Dercher said.
On the other side of the coin is senior running back Dustin Curry. Having rushed for only 130 yards and two touchdowns last season, Curry was relying on a strong workout to get a chance to play professionally, but sickness held down his scores, Curry said.
"I really didn't put up any amazing numbers in the drills and

didn't receive a lot of playing time last season, so if the scouts look at those two things, my chances aren't too good," Curry said.
[Image of a person crouching in a defensive stance]
If his career is through, Curry will try to attend graduate school.
For some seniors, however, the wait continues.
"It's my dream to play in the NFL," Dercher said. "Hopefully I can just stick on there."

Ottawa University 10-3 in Lawrence yesterday in another previously unsched-
The game was scheduled to replace a game that was to be played at Creighton University. However, the Creighton game was canceled because the field was deemed unplayable.
The win was the Jayhawks' fourth in a row and improved the team's record to 7-12 overall, and 3-6 in the Big 12.
Kansas' continued offensive explosion, including 13 hits, and solid defense were keys to the win.
"I'm very pleased with our performance today," Coach Bobby Randall said. "That game was well-mitched and well-played defensively."
was well-pitched and well played delicately. The 'Hawks committed only one error, and behind the performance of seven different Jayhawk pitchers, gave up only three runs.
Sophomore Brian Schriner, who had been out the last couple of weeks with an arm injury, started the game and pitched three innings, giving up six hits and three runs in his first game back.
Offensively, the 'Hawks focus was toward the top of the order as the top three hitters provided nine of the 13 hits.
Sophomore shortstop John Nelson was four for five with a single, two doubles and a triple. Nelson just missed baseball's coveted cycle, in which a player hits a single, double, triple and
After Schriner left, senior Chad Schuster; juniors Mark Corson and Pete Smart; sophomore Brandon O'Neal, and freshmen Grant Williams and Jeff Davis all pitched one inning to preserve the win.
home run in the same game.
"Our first three hitters were really the story of the game," Randall said. "To combine for seven runs and six RBI really tells you how they are contributing."
The hits pushed Nelson's hitting-streak to 10 games.
Sophomore Doug Dreher continued to make contact also, as he was two for four on the day and delivered two RBL.
Despite the fact that the game was a fill-in, both Kansas and Ottawa played fundamental games offensively and defensively.
"You've got to tip your hat to Ottawa today," Randall said. "They played a hard, clean ball game."
Kansas next game will be 3 p.m. Friday at Hoglund Ballpark against the Nebraska Cornhuskers. Nebraska, 13-6 overall and 2-1 in the Big 12, is coming off of a 50-3 victory against Chicago State Tuesday and has won four in a row.

HOROSCOPES
Todav's Birthday (March 18)
The money is coming in this year. Your job is to figure out how to hold onto it. In March, you should have a pretty good idea of what's going to happen next. It's similar to what happened before. There's more than enough in April.
Aries (March 21-April 19): Today is an 8
Alice (mat 24) April 15 is today.
You hardly ever get your feelings hurt, but it could hap
pen today. If so, the misunderstanding would most
likely involve love and money, perhaps a gift you've
given your sweetheart or one you're getting. Just focus
on the love, and whatever it is will be perfect.
Taurus (April 20-May 20): Today is a 5
Venus is coming into your sign today, which is excellent for love and money. You'll be lucky in just about everything, except possibly communications. Check to make sure that what the other person heard is the same as what you thought you said.
Gemini (May 21-June 21): Today is a 7
If you're confused, you're not the only one. In fact, you could be one of the smarter people today. A person who thinks the answer is simple could be making a big mistake. Don't just follow a strong leader blindly. Watch where you're going, and make sure it's in the right direction. You don't want any rerets.
Cancer [June 22- July 22]: Today is a 5
you may be asked to account today for something you did recently. An older person just wants to make sure the job is getting done. Don't rely on information from a distant source. It could be erroneous. Tell them that, and you'll make extra points.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Today is a 7
Be very careful with any large expenditure of money without the next few weeks. Looks like complications could arise, making it more trouble than it's worth. Commitments will become more important, and a previously frivolous relationship could become quite serious, much to your delight.
Virao (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Today is a 5
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Today is a 7
Someone you knew in the past could be coming into your life again. There are good times to talk about, but a couple of old misunderstandings need to be straightened out, too. Do that now, so you don't have to let the past mess up your future.
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Today is a 5
There are rumors flying around your workplace. Be careful. Don't gossip behind people's backs. It's never a good idea, and today it would be particularly destructive. If you wonder about something, ask people to their faces. The truth might be far different from what you imagine, and bad impressions last a long time.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Today is a $^{7}$
An old misunderstanding with a loved one could resurface and need to be dealt with again. Make time for it; this time could be the last. There's a mountain of work to be done, but you should go through it quickly. Be a good listener today. It'll make everything easier.
Suggestions There may still be a few last touches to add, but that's to be expected. You can't really tell how a thing's going to look until it's completely finished. There's no point being inhibited. The overall result will look brilliant, so keep going until you get there.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Today is a 5
A couple of things happening today could turn out in your favor. Mercury is going retrograde into Pisces, helping you uncover old secrets. Venus, for love, is going into Taurus, helping you make romantic commitments. So you may discover a nice secret that leads to a romantic commitment.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Today is an 8
Research is very important to you right now, along with old money. A friend's insight could set you going in a new direction. You're on a hunt for buried treasure, and you don't have far to go. Something near at hand is quite valuable. It's all in how you look at it.
C
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Today is a 5
If you notice yourself pondering the past more in the next few weeks, it's because Mercury is coming into your sign and it's retrograde right now, so it causes contemplation of days gone by and lessons you should have learned. If you didn't learn them then, go ahead and learn them now.

Nebraska wins 50-3 sets baseball record
The Comhuskers beat Chicago State 50-3 in a record-setting baseball game that must have caused plenty of double-takes by anybody perusing the scores. Even the players had trouble digesting it.
"I've never, ever seen a score like this," said Nebraska infielder, Craig Moore, who went 5-of-7 with a school-record 10 RBI. "I've never even dreamed about my team scoring this many runs."

The game, scheduled for nine innings, ended on the 12-turn mercy rule after 6 1/2 innings. And this after the Huskers won the seven-inning first game 15-3.
The previous record for runs by a winning team was set by West Chester, Pa., which beat Philadelphia Textile 42-1 on April 7, 1994.
Nebraska's 48 RBI eclipsed the NCAA single-game record. West Chester had 37 RBI in its 1994 game and Clemson also had 37 against North Carolina State on April 6, 1979.
The Huskers (12-6) also established an NCAA record for winning margin — 47 runs. The former record was shared by West Chester five years ago and Georgia Tech, which beat Earham 14-O on March 21, 1975.
ther and further review. instant replay is back in the NFL for the 1999 season.
NFL committee adds instant replay for '99
The league's owners, who had killed replay every year for the past seven years, overwhelmingly approved a new system yesterday. The system will give coaches two challenges per game, with "a replay assistant" to determine if something is to be reviewed in the final two minutes of each half.
The referee on the field will make the final decision.
PHOENIX — Upon further and fur-
The action comes after a season marked by several high-profile mistakes. It even led commissioner Paul Tagliabue to propose bringing it back for the playoffs, a move that was turned down.
Yesterday's vote was 29-3, the most overwhelming vote for replay since it first came up in 1986. The three "No" votes came from Cincinnati, the New York Jets and Arizona, while the New York Giants, who had voted against it every year, were among the "Yes" votes.
But unlike the system in effect from 1986.91, it's not intended to cover routine mistakes.
"We are implementing this system to correct the major, major, big mistake," said Seattle coach Mike Holmgren, cochairman of the competition committee, which came up with the plan.
That was primarily the reason why replay wasn't put in for longer than one year.
there were several teams that were traditionally against it that voted for it this time," said the other cochairman, Rich McKay of Tampa Bay, another team that was often against replay. "They wanted to see how it works for a year before we put it in for a longer period."
Replay will be like the old system — applicable to goal-line and sideline plays and possession, but not to penalties.

Kansas thrower tosses records
Continued from page 1B
The interest in sports started well before high school, though.
Russell's father, who played college basketball at St. Claire College in Canada, took Russell to a t-ball hitting tournament when he was in fourth grade and was amazed at both his son's ability and his winning nature.
"He just kept asking me over and over again, 'Dad, do you think it went far?' I couldn't believe it mattered that much," Don Russell said.
Of course, Scott Russell won the contest.
Later that same year, Scott Russell learned about the Olympics in school. His mother saw something emerge from him that year.
In the summer of 2000, Russell will focus on attaining that dream.
"He was inspired by what they told him about the Olympics. I think it implanted in him a dream to shoot for," she said.
By that time, Russell will have another year of experience and his technique in the javelin, the hammer throw and shot put will have been refined. He plans to spend the summer in Lawrence training with coach LaRowe and then try out for the Canadian Olympic Team.
"Track definitely isn't for the bucks, but it's one sport where the glory might be greater." Russell said. "Two years ago, I never saw myself excelling to that level. Now, it'd be a dream come true."
The stories that would accompany
that feat would take center stage in the Russell home in Ontario. Downstairs in their house, Russell's mother has plastered one wall in newsprint. Every story about his accomplishments hangs from that wall, and the more he improves, the more the wall fills up.
Windsor, across the river from Detroit, has a population of about 210,000. The city gives an annual award called the Royal Arcanum Award given to the outstanding Windsor high school athlete each year. Russell won the award as a junior and senior in high school, a hint of things to come.
He has a devoted following in Windsor beyond his immediate family.
At the Family Tradition Food plant
where his dad works, a bulletin board is covered with articles from newspapers and the Internet about his accomplishments in college.
Scott Russell has grown accustomed to that kind of notoriety, yet it amazes him when people recognize him outside of Windsor.
"People who have followed him throughout high school and college will find stuff on the Internet about him, and the next thing it's up at work," Don Russell said.
"After I won the Big 12, people were coming up to me for days afterwards and congratulating me," Russell said. "I didn't know many of them, but it sued in that it was the fact that people realize what you've doing. That blows me away."

Jayhawks set for championships
Senior women's swimmer only female 'Hawk at tourney

Senior swimmer Adrienne Turner will finish her career the way she started it.
The NCAA Championships begin today in
The NCAA Championsi
Athens, Ga., and Turner,
who has not been to the
meet since her freshman
year, will swim the 100-yard
butterfly tomorrow and the
200-yard butterfly on Saturday.
She said she wanted to end her career with a bang.
"I would love to place again like I did my freshman year," Turner said. "I'm half a second from the record, and that's in the back of my mind. But this is my last meet, and I'm going to go out there and have fun."
Turner: Looks to excel in national tournament
Coach Gary Kempf said he thought Turner was set to have a great meet. He said that both her attitude and training have been consistently strong, and he expected her to swim well.
"I want her to get what she deserves," Kempf said. "Adrienne has given a great deal to the program."
Turner, the only Kansas woman at this year's meet, said that it was more difficult to swim with no teammates there to cheer for her.
"It's always a lot easier to swim when you've got people behind your lane," Turner said.
But at what is known as one of the fastest meets in the world, Turner said she felt honored just to be going. Although a cheering section would be nice, the meet will give her an opportunity to focus on herself.
"I'll just get up there with confidence in the training I've done, just go out and get after it," Turner said. "I don't have anything to lose."
Despite the fact that both Kempf and Turner expect this year's championships to be one of the most competitive yet, Kempf has complete faith in Turner's ability to step up.
"Adrienne has always been a good competitor. We've gone over all these things for four

"No matter what, I'm going to get out of the water smiling." Turner said.

Kempf said he did not mind that the meet would cut short his spring break.

Women's golf team shatters records at tournament
Jayhawks rebound from previous defeat finish in third place

What a difference one tournament can make.
After finishing 18th at their first tournament of the spring season, the members of Kansas women's golf team rebounded in the Mountainview Collegiate in Tucson, Ariz., to finish third with a score of 607.
In last weekend's tournament, the Jayhawks not only finished ahead of two ranked teams, but they also broke and tied several team and personal records.
Junior Susan Tessary became the
first player since Holly Reynolds in 1992 to shoot under 70. Tessary's three-under-par and second-round score of 69 was 14-stroke improvement over her first round score.
"It was the first time that I've ever shot under 71 in competition." "Tessary said, adding that her previous collegiate

best score was 72. "I actually bogeyed the last hole, so my score probably could have been better."
To bogey is to finish a hole one stroke above par.
The team's score was a two-round tournament record, as was the

Kansas softball begins tournament today
The Kansas softball team will take on Iowa today in the first round of pool play in the Airtouch Cellular Capital Classic in Sacramento, Calif.
Pitching again will be a key for the Jayhawks this weekend. Sophomore Jessi Kowal has pitched well this season, but she struggled with control against Arkansas
By Brandon Stinnett sports@kansan.com Kansan sportswriter
Kansas Coach Tracy Bunge said the Jayhawks were looking to build off their 6-1 victory against Arkansas in the second game of Tuesday's home opener.
"I think a lot of people felt good about the way they were swinging the bat against Arkansas." Bunge said.
Kansas will face the other two teams in its pool, Southwest Missouri State and Rutgers, tomorrow. The top two teams from each pool will advance to the championship bracket to compete in a double elimination tournament Saturday and Sunday. The bottom two teams will compete in a consolation tournament.
"Jessi needs to start getting ahead of hitters early in the count," Bunge said. "She didn't do that very well against Arkansas."
Bunge said the Jayhawks' goal was to finish in the top half of their pool.
"We have high expectations for this tournament. We want to be in the championship bracket."
"We have high expectations for this tournament," she said. "We want to be in the championship bracket."
Kansas' other pitcher, junior Sarah Workman, had one of her best outings of the season against the Lady Razorbacks, giving up just one run on four hits and striking out 10.
"I think Sarah Workman feels a lot better about herself after the game on Tuesday," Bunge said. "I feel confident both our pitchers can lead us to a good season and a good year i-
Sophomore second baseman Lezli Leathers said she expected Kansas' success against Arkansas to spill into this tournament.
According to Bunge, Kansas' performance against Iowa should give an indication of what to expect in the rest of the tournament.
"There are a lot of good teams in the tournament, so there will be a lot of tough competition." Leathers said. "But we played well yesterday (Tuesday). I think this tournament could be a turning point in our season. I think we will do very well."

far."
"We need to start jumping on pitchers in the first and second inning," she said.
The Jayhawks will begin conference play against Oklahoma State March 27 in Stillwater. The Big 12 was rated the nation's second strongest conference last season and Bunge said the Big 12 is just as good this year.
"I don't think teams are ever ready for that type of competition." Bunge said, "But. I think our players are ready to find out what it's like. It will be a dog fight for the conference championship this year."

Gonzaga gets jiggy wit it
Bulldogs advance to Sweet 16 round inspire fan support
The Associated Press
SPOKANE, Wash. — With no apologies to rapper Will Smith, Gonzaga's basketball team bopped to "Gettin' Zaggy Wit It" with hundreds of students at a pep rally.
After the rally Tuesday night, the Bulldogs got on a charter flight to Phoenix and Thursday's NCAA West Regional game against Florida.
Hundreds of students at the small private college turned
"This has been a great ride, but we are still on the roller coaster," coach Dan Monson said of his team, which reached the Sweet 16 for the first time in school history.
A local radio station put the music to new lyrics, interspersed with radio play-by-play accounts of Bulldogs successes.
Bulldogs boosters gave Smith's "Gettin" Jiggy Wit It the same treatment Gonzaga gave to Minnesota and Stanford, the teams the Spokane school beat in the first two rounds of the NCAA basketball tournament.
out to see their team off at The Kennel, Gonzaga's home court.
"We're four games away from a national title." Monson told the crowd. "To me that would be a great season right there."
"How about the Sweet 16, baby?" guard Quentin Hall, who has played spectacularly in the two games, asked the crowd.
"If everything goes as planned, this will not be our last weekend playing," said Mike Leasure of Spanaway, the only player who was also on Gonzaga's NCAA qualifying team in 1995, the school's only other appearance in the tournament.
With airfares high and seating limited, many Gonzaga students were planning to drive the 1,300 miles to Phoenix for the game. Monson warned them to drive carefully.
This year's Gonzaga队 (27-6) has already won the most games in school history. This will be its first game against Florida (22-8).
"Nothing would tarnish it worse than an accident on the road," he said.
Bulldogs fever is running high on the campus of the Jesuit-run college founded in 1887. Hats and T-shirts are flying out of the campus
bookstore as fast as they can be stocked.
This is not the 4,500-student school's first brush with NCAA success. In 1950, Gonzaga shared the NCAA boxing championship with Idaho.
But the Bulldogs have received little respect during the years. They were passed over for an NCAA tournament last year despite a 24-10 record.
One thing is certain. This year's team is focusing plenty of attention on the school's unusual name.
The university is named for St. Aloysius Gonzaga, a 16th Century Jesuit priest remembered these days as the Patron Saint of Youth.
St. Alosius Gonzaga (168-159) gave his life caring for victims of the plague in Rome, according to The Catholic Encyclopedia.
Fans and team members have had a lot of fun listening to the national media mispronounce the school's name. For the record, it is pronounced "Gone-zag'-uh." not "Gone-zaw'-guh."
Although the team's official nickname is the Bulldogs, Gonzaga sports clubs are just as often called the Zags.
Signs handed out at the rally said "Go Zags!"
'Wally World' crucial against Kentucky team
The Associated Press
LEXINGTON, Ky. — Miami of Ohio has "Wally World" — high-scoring forward Wally Szczerbiak — and teammates skilled at giving him a chance to score.
By contrast, in the world of Kentucky basketball there is no single player around whom the rest of the team revolves.
Nowhere has Kentucky coach Tubby Smith's team-oriented approach been more evident than in the substitution pattern he used later in the season.
That's why Friday's NCAA tournament game in St. Louis between the third-seeded Wildcats (27-8) and the 10th-seeded RedHawks (24-7) presents a true contrast in styles.
That's a good time for the team to try and press opposing teams, who usually don't have the same depth as Kentucky, Smith said Tuesday.
Four or five minutes into each game, starters Wayne Turner, Scott Padgett, Heshimu Evans, Desmond Allison and Michael Bradley sit down. Taking their places are fresh second unit members Jamal Magloire, Jules Camara, Tayshaun Prince, Saul Smith and Ryan Hogan.
"We're hoping we can fatigue them a bit and then bring the first unit back in,"Smith said.
"We try to wear people down with our bench strength."
The tactic has served Kentucky well in postseason play.
H
In both the SEC championship game against Arkansas and in the Wildcats' second-round NCAA win against Kansas Sun-
uay, the second unit came off the bench to rally Kentucky from early deficits.
Just two weeks ago, the Wildcats were coming off a 3-4 February, and a fourth straight Final Four trip seemed improbable. Now, Kentucky is 5-0 in March and two wins away from a Final Four trip to St. Petersburg, Fla.
Magoire said Kentucky's team effort will make it impossible for Sczerbiak to singlehandedly beat the Wildcats, as Sczerbiak did in scoring 43 points in a first-round win against Washington.
"No one individual can beat a team." Magloire said. "Granted, he's a good player. But no one player can beat us. No one player can beat a team."
Smith said he did not plan any major changes to his basic containment defense for the third-round game against Miami, which is coming off an unset win against second-seeded Utah.
"We haven't used any gimmick defenses all year long," Smith said. "We're going to try to do something out of our regular man-to-man defense to try to limit his (Szzerbiek's) touches."
With Szczerbiak equally skilled at posting and stepping outside for the perimeter jump shot. Smith said there is no glaring weakness for the Wildcats to attack. Smith说他 likely will try several different players on Szczerbiak, including senior forwards Padgett and Evans.
"I don't think there's any one thing you can do to shut him down," Smith said. "We'll just try to deny him the ball as much as possible."
Smith and Padgett said there's more to Miami than Szczerbian. Point guard Rob Mestas is a calm floor leader and skilled at distributing the ball, Smith said. Guard Damon Frierson is averaging 13.1 points, and the entire team is skilled at getting Szczerbian open for shots.
"I think more than anything, they feed off of when other teams go to double Wally," Padgett said. "They have a team. It's not just Wally."
Like Szczerbiak, the 6-foot-9 Padgett possesses inside-outside versatility, as he showed down the stretch in the Kansas game. Padgett hit a 3-pointer that sent the game to overtime, nailed another long jumper that opened the overtime and went inside to get to the foul line and make five free throws in the extra session as Kentucky won 92-88.
Padgett said he has tried to focus on his post play in recent games.
"The more I post up, the more opportunities I get to get to the free-throw line," he said.

"What I remember about her is that she was full of life. She was always about helping other people."
Social worker killed in Chicago last month
By Heather Woodward hwoodward @kansan.com kansan staff writer
Students who had worked for The University Daily Kansan in 1989 had lost touch
Students who had worked for The University Daily Kansan in 1989 had lost touch with one of their own. The murder last month of Merceda Ares, a Russell native, came as a shock to college friends who remembered her as someone who had an adventurous spirit and an incredible sense of humor.
Jennifer Michel, a 1990 KU graduate and Salina resident, said that Ares was a bridesmaid in her wedding but that she had not spoken to her fellow Kansan reporter in nine years.
Michel was horrified yesterday by the news and questioned what had happened to Ares, a 31 year-old 1991 KU graduate living in Chicago and working as a social worker.
Marcy O'Boyle, representative for the state attorney's office in Chicago, said that according to prosecutors, three men were looking for a
place to rob and knocked on Ares door about 9 a.m. Feb. 13. After nobody answered several knocks, one of the men allegedly entered the apartment through a transom above the door.
When they discovered Ares inside, one man allegedly approached her with a kitchen knife and led her into the bedroom where he raped her twice and then strangled her to death. O'Boyle said. Ares attempted to save her life by offering the men her ATM card and PIN number.
The suspects later were located after they were caught on camera using her ATM card.
Ronald Hinton, 26; Michael Sanders, 25; and David Wales, 26; received no bond at the Monday hearing after being charged with murder, aggravated criminal sexual assault and home invasion Sunday, March 14.
Ares' death came three weeks before the March 9 murder of Amy Watkins, a 1996 KU graduate, who was attending Hunter College School of Social Work in New York. Watkins was stabbed near her Brooklyn apartment.
Susan Gile, a social worker for Kansas Social and Rehabilitation services, 1901 Delaware St., said that she would not want to work as a social worker in a large city.
'I do not know how much they get paid there,
but it is not a lot." Gile said. "There is a lot that the public does not see as dangerous in this work, but frankly, I would not want to do this work in Chicago or even in Wichita."
Alice Lieberman, associate professor of social welfare, said that although social workers sometimes faced dangerous situations, their training could be a valuable resource in maintaining control of a situation.
"Social work is not for the squamish." Lieberman said. "You have to be willing to work with people who are anxious and sad and angry, and you have to learn to de-escalate that."
Ares graduated from the University of Kansas with bachelor's degrees in journalism and English. Ares traveled to Luanda, Angola, after receiving her degree to teach nutrition and hygiene.
She went on to receive her masters degree in social services from Washington University in St. Louis. It was a promotion to a job-placement counselor with Job Corps in Chicago that brought her to the city.
"She had a great sense of humor, and she was the type of person that everybody liked." Michel said. "She expressed some interest in social work. She was really concerned about domestic abuse and that kind of stuff. She was the type of
"What I remember about her is that she was full of life," Niemi said. "She was always about helping other people. You could tell that she really cared about other people, and she was a great reporter."
person who could have really helped a lot of people."
Tom Gainer, assistant prosecutor on the case, said his office might bring more charges against the defendants. The three men will have a preliminary hearing in violence court April 7. Gainer said he did not know whether his office would seek the death penalty.
"It is a death-eligible case on the surface," Gainer said. "But that does not mean we have made a determination to do that yet."
Dani Niemi, a 1990 KU graduate and an editor on the business desk for The New York Times, said he remembered working with Ares on The University Daily Kansan.
Two of the three defendants, Hinton and Sanders, also have been charged in the murder of Keary Lea Gagnier, 36, who lived in the same neighborhood as Ares.
Ares is survived by her mother Donna Hutchison, who lives in Russell.
Hutchison could not be reached for comment.

Freshman arrested in burning of swastika in Oliver
Anonymous tip leads police to apprehend hall resident
By Katie Burford
kburford@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
A KU student was arrested last night in connection with a swastika found burned into the third-floor hallway carpet of Oliver Hall early yesterday morning, said Lt. Schuyler Bailey of the KU Public Safety Office.
Bailey said police arrested the student, a freshman, about 9 p.m. for aggravated arson. Police said they were put on the student's trail after receiving an anonymous tip.
The KU student directory lists the student as a third-floor Oliver resident.
Police first were notified of the 5-foot by 3 1/2-foot swastika after a staff member contacted them some time between 2 and 2:30 a.m. Bailley said.
Police said that they had not yet connected the student to the Feb. 28 vandalism in which an Asian-American student found a swastika burned on the door of his fifth-floor Oliver room. Two other doors were vandalized the same night, but the markings on the doors were illegible.
After contacting the student, police said they took him to the KU Public Safety Office, where he confessed to the arson, Bailey said.
He was then booked into the Douglas County jail with no bond. Police said they expect the student to make his first appearance in court at 3 p.m. today.
Fred McElhenein, associate director of Student Housing, said that the department planned to address the incidents with residents.
The symbol appeared to have been made by laying toilet paper in the shape of a swastika and lighting it on fire. Bailey said.
Danny Rubin, Aurora, Colo., freshman and third-floor Oliver resident, said that he didn't know what the motivation behind the vandalism was.
"It might have been just to piss people off— to give the impression that there are white supremacists living in the hall," he said.
"We will try to get floor meetings together in order to emphasize what we stand for and what we won't stand for," he said.

WASHINGTON — The leader of the Irish Republican Army's affiliated political party said yesterday he could not deliver a start now to the outlawed group's disarmament, one of the long-postponed goals of the Northern Ireland peace process.
The blunt talk from Sinn Fein leader Gerry Adams came on Capitol Hill after a particularly candid half-hour meeting Wednesday night inside the White House with his political nemesis, Ulster
Unionist Party leader David Trimble.
Abbott Party leader David Trimble, the Protestant assigned to form a new Protestant-Catholic government for Northern Ireland, is refusing to support Sinn Fein's eligibility for office unless the IRA starts disarming first. Their deadlock has jeopardized that central goal of last year's Good Friday peace accord.
Diplomat denies China stole nuclear designs
WASHINGTON — A Chinese diplomat yesterday denied allegations his country stole nuclear weapons designs from a U.S. laboratory and blamed a Cold War mentality for the furor that has prompted FBI and Energy Department investigations.
"They are sorry there is no more Soviet Union, and they don't know how to act," said He Yafei, a minister-counsel at the Chinese Embassy, referring to those accusing China of espionage at the Los Alamos National Laboratory in the 1980s to help modernize Chinese nuclear warheads.
Wen Ho Lee, a Taiwan-born American engineer at the New Mexico facility, is the focus of the investigation. He was fired last week for violating security regulations
Lee has not been charged with any crime and Energy Secretary Bill Richardson said he did not know if Lee would be prosecuted.
ricardson told Congress on Wednesday he planned to tighten security at the nation's nuclear weapons laboratories. Former CIA Director John Deutch is to help decide whether too many foreign visitors are admitted.
Court-martialed Army general rebuked, fined
FORT LEWIS, Wash. — A retired Army general who admitted to adulterous affairs with the wives of four subordinates has been reprimanded and fined — and will not spend any time behind bars.
Retired Maj. Gen. David Hale, 53,
was ordered to pay a $10,000 fine and
forfeit $12,000 of his $75,744 annual
pension for one year. He had faced up
to 11 years in prison and prosecutors
had wanted him jailed.
Hale, who tearfully apologized in court, did not meet with reporters after Wednesday's hearing. Donald Mancuso, the Defense Department official who oversaw the investigation, said the sentence was enough to send a warning to other officers.
Such high-profile cases "do in fact cause officers to think twice," Mancuso said.
Hale was the highest-ranking Army officer to face court-martial since 1952. His case led to allegations the Pentagon had a double standard for dealing with sexual misconduct when it came to officers.
Hale was allowed to retire with honor last year despite claims of improprieties he committed while he was a top NATO commander in southern Europe. The resulting furon led the Pentagon to change its rules to bar top officers from retiring
while facing allegations of wrongdoing
The allegations concerned relationships Hale had from 1996 to 1998 when he held the NATO post in Turkey. He and his wife separated in 1995 and divorced in 1997.
Hale was forthright in admitting guilt.
Americans not taking advantage of tax credit
WASHINGTON — As many as 4 million Americans with modest incomes may be overlooking an IRS provision aimed at cutting or even eliminating their federal income taxes. And the sheer complexity of the earned income tax credit leads to errors by many of those who do try to claim it.
Simply determining eligibility for the credit requires completion of a 12-question checklist, which is then followed by a nine-line worksheet and an eight-line form.
The IRS, which expects 20 million taxpayers to claim the credit this year, frequently finds up to 40 percent of such returns contain some error. But the people for whom the credit is intended typically don't have the money to hire a tax professional.
The earned income tax credit was created in 1975, in part to keep lower-income people working to contribute payroll taxes to Social Security and Medicare and in part to give people incentives to stay off welfare rolls.
L.A. communities talk of secession from city
LOS ANGELES — From the Pacific Coast to the inland valley, entire neighborhoods are talking about seceding from Los Angeles and creating new cities across Southern California.
This week, Sherman Oaks and other parts of the San Fernando Valley took a crucial step that could put secession on the ballot in 2002. Similar movements are afoot in other communities. Altogether, they make up as much as 60 percent of the city's population of 3.6 million
Secession proponents say that Los Angeles — which is the nation's second-biggest city in population and occupies one of the largest areas of any U.S. community with 467 square miles — is too unwieldy to govern and that smaller governments would be more efficient, more responsive and perhaps less costly, meaning taxes could be lower.
Opponents of secession fear such a move only would create more bureaucracy, hurt the poor and minorities by dividing voting blocs and diminish the clout Los Angeles needs to land federal aid and conventions.
If the three largest communities seceded, Los Angeles would remain racially and economically mixed. Within its borders would be the downtown skyline recognizable in such TV shows as L.A.Law, the tourist attractions of Hollywood, the poor African-American and Hispanic neighborhoods of South Central and Watts and largely Hispanic East Los Angeles.

"The way I see it, it's just based on ignorance." Rubin said that as a Jewish person, the symbol was especially loathsome to him.
"It means hate against people who are different," he said. "But I don't think it was directed to anyone specific."
Webster's dictionary states that the word "swastika" was derived from Sanskrit and originally meant a sign of good luck. According to Webster's, "It exists as a mystic symbol among various American Indian tribes and in India, Japan, Persia, etc."
In this century, it was used in Nazi Germany as the party emblem and symbol of anti-Semitism.
McEhlennie said that part of the reason for holding floor meetings was to discuss the importance of sensitivity and diversity in creating a positive community, he said.
The swastika attracted media attention yesterday from radio and television stations in Kansas City and topeka as well as Lawrence media.
Daniel Catlla, Bolivia freshman and third floor Oliver resident, said that he thought the media coverage was good because the acts of vandalism weren't something that should be ignored. Nevertheless, he said that he didn't have the impression that racial tension was on the rise in the residence halls.

Program focuses on building 'Natural Ties
By Ezra Sykes

Amidst a flurry of strikes, spares and gutter balls a group of people came together Wednesday night at the Jaybowl, producing a whirlwind of high-fives and hugs.
And Barclay Richardson was having a good time.
"These are friendly people," he said, in between frames. "I like to be around these people."
Richardson, Lawrence resident, is a member of Natural Ties, a KU organization devoted to improving the life of those with developmental disabilities.
Once a week, students, or "reps," meet with their "ties," such as Richardson, to participate in recreational activities, which include bowling, playing pool, going out for dinner, seeing a movie or cutting a rug at the Cadillac Ranch, 2515 W. Sixth St.
Terah Isaacson, Salina freshman,
recalled her first meeting with Pat, her tie.
"At first, she was a little apprehensive of us, and we were a little apprehensive of her," Isaacson said, explaining how it took a little time for her and another rep to get to know Pat.
"Now she calls me 'shrimp.'" Isaacson said.
Most reps work in pairs and are members of groups such as fraternities, sororities or the KU Band.
There are about 120 members of Natural Ties - 27 of whom have developmental disabilities — here at the University of Kansas, where the program originated. The program has spread to 13 other campuses.
Cathy Skrtic, a tie, has been involved with the group for five years, but chose not to bowl. Skrtic said she would rather play pool or watch a basketball or baseball game.
Mary Henry, Fort Scott junior and director of public relations, became involved with the group after learning about it through her sorority.
"The first time it was a little awkward," she said. "It was an overwhelming experience to see 120 people who know each other having a blast."
But now Henry feels more at home, and it can be seen as she gives hugs and high-fives to a group of ties walking into the bowling alley.
"It's nice to be part of something that can make so many people happy," she said.
While dealing with those that have developmental disabilities, students must be prepared to handle tough situations.
Henry recounted the story of a student who became terrified when her tie had a seizure.
Although the experience was scary, the student has learned how to deal with her tie's health problems.
"It just becomes like second nature," Henry said.
Situations such as this can give students new perspectives about disabled people.
"You realize that this is something that this person must deal with every day of his life," Henry said. "If we get freaked out about the situation, it just makes them that much more uncomfortable."
Kelly Meerpohl, Holton sophomore, said that being a rep in Natural Ties had opened his eyes.
"I look at the handicapped differently now," he said. "I realize that they can do more than I ever thought they could."
For more information about Natural Ties, call the program's office at the Kansas Union at 864-4243.

Senate campaign to focus on student cost-fee reversal
Tuition issue to top YOU agenda
By Nadia Mustafa
nmusfafo@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
A tuition cap for KU students tops the list for the YOU coalition's issue agenda in the Student Senate campaign.
Korb Maxwell, YOU candidate for student body president and Student Legislative Awareness Board legislative director, said that if he was elected he would focus on reversing the cost-fee ratio associated with tuition and
The cost of tuition at the University of Kansas increased more than 400 percent during the last 15 years. Students pay for more than 40 percent of the University's operating costs, while the state contributes less than 60 percent.
fees.
In addition, tuition is increasing at a rate of more than double the increases in state funding.
Maxwell hoped to convince the state legislature to return a 25-75 cost-fee ratio, which would require students to pay 25 percent and state funding to finance 75 percent.
"It sounds a bit pie in the sky," Maxwell said. "It's definitely a tough fight, but every good cause is. As long as we get
The Board of Regents' tuition and budget development committee began work Wednesday on its recommendations for the University's operating budget for 2000-2001, including tuition and faculty salaries.
the state to pick up more of the investment in higher education, a tuition freeze is realistic."
Kevin Yoder, committee member, is not a member of YOU. But as student body president and SLAB chief lobbyist, he advocated a tuition freeze or an increase less than the rate of inflation for 2000-2001 at the Wednesday's committee's meeting.
Tuition will increase 2.3 percent for the next academic year, which is less than what
experts predict to be a three percent rate of inflation this year.
Yoder said that next year's increase was fair but that the state should increase funding by as much or more than what students pay.
"KU is reasonable now, and we want to keep it that way," he said. "That's realistic because the Board has been very friendly to student concerns and supportive of wanting to keep tuition at a low rate."

Group wants 'assassin' school closed
- Edited by Liz Wristen

A school that tutors assassins shouldn't be on U.S. soil.
But that's exactly what the School of the Americas is, said Carol Richardson, co-director of Schools of the Americas Watch, a group that advocates shutting down the school.
"The ultimate goal of the School of the Americas is to defend U.S. interests in Latin America," she said.
Richardson said that the officials at the School of the Americas claimed that its goal was to help spread democracy but said that it was used more often to put down rebellions.
Richardson spoke to about 30 people last night at a rice and beans dinner sponsored by Latin American Solidarity at the Ecumenical Christians Ministries building, 1204 Oread Ave.
The School of the Americas, founded in Panama in 1946, is a United States Army training facility located in Fort Benning, Georgia.
The school was moved to Fort Benning in 1984 under terms of the Panama Canal Treaties.
In 1996, the Department of Defense released seven training manuals used by the school to teach students torture and extortion.
"The techniques target those people that are trying to change things," Richardson said. This includes union organizers, those who favor with workers, or anyone else who chooses to side against the government, she said.
Richardson said that former graduates of the school had said that in Panama, military doctors from the United States had trained them in torture using kidnapped homeless people.
Nicholas Britto, public affairs officer at the School of Americas, said that the school did not train people to be assassins.
The School of the Americas was just like any other senior-level military school, with the exception that its classes were taught in Spanish, Britto said.
He said that people from the United States comprised half of the present class.
"Some people have committed crimes," Britto said, speaking about graduates from the school. "But you cannot say that everyone who went to school there is a military assassin."
According to the SOA Watch Web site those people who have committed crimes were Latin American dictators, including Manuel Noriega, Omar Torrijos and Guillermo Rodriguez.
Richardson said that UN inspections had discovered that more than half of the soldiers charged with human rights violations were trained
in the United States.
"Every time one of those reports comes out, the School of the Americas is there," she said.
The SOA Watch Web site also states that School of the Americas graduates were responsible for the death of Archbishop Oscar Romero, who was associated with SOA Watch and other human rights violations.
"People, like us, who do this work daily risk their lives to do this work," she said.
In protest for the school, the SOA Watch has organized vigils in the past year at the front entrance of Fort Benning.
Megan Hope, LAS president, traveled with 14 other KU students to join the vigil last fall that took place at the Fort property line.
About 7,000 people attended the vigil, and 2,319 of them crossed the line in an act of civil disobedience protesting the continued operations of the school.
Hope joined nine other KU
students who crossed that line, ceremoniously bearing white wooden crosses with the names of people who had died in Latin America.
As soon as they trespassed into the base, military police confiscated the crosses and corralled the protesters into buses waiting to transport them to a city park, where they were left.
"Last year was the first year that there were no arrests," Hope said. "SOA Watch has to think about what our strategy is going to be now. In years past, we have relied on this act of civil disobedience. Now we don't have that option."
Hope said that she and other people planned on going to future vigils.
Richardson said that she hoped that 10,000 people would attend another vigil this November, with 5,000 crossing the line and 100 risking a jail sentence by crossing the line for their second time.
In the meantime, SOA Watch is working on getting a bill passed through Congress that would close the school. Richardson said that last year the vote on a similar bill was 201 for to 212 against.
Richardson said that the School of the Americas was a snapshot of a more widespread cooperation between the military and human rights violators and that closing the school would be an important first step.
Richardson closed her speech by encouraging students to keep working hard on the issue.
"Each one of us can do something," she said. "Each one of us has a voice. Keep on, keep on, because there is so much and so many who depend on our work."

Southern comfort, eventful breaks contribute to health risks, fatigue
This weekend marks the start of the mass hysteria known as spring break.
KU students, along with students from other schools around the world, will pack bags and journey south to beachparty paradise. In places such as Cancun, Jamaica and South Padre Island, boundless scans, scanty swim suits and sun tanning await.
However, students often overlook the possibility that the fun they have could land them in the hospital back at home.
Exhaustion, alcohol poisoning, sunburn and sexually transmitted diseases during spring break can yield post-vacation infirmity. Students should be aware of the consequences of their actions.
Deb Hewes, health educator at Watkins Health Center, said there was a
Health official says responsibility, abstinence will help students' safety after break.
notable increase in sexually transmitted diseases after spring break.
Not only did the number of STDs increase. Howes said, but there was also an influx of patients who had not taken care of themselves during the break. She said students seek medical attention for effects of staying up late, eating poorly and drinking heavily.
wntie sleep deprivation, malnutrition and binge drinking predominantly affect only the inflicted individual, venereal diseases affect a larger population. If two students meet during spring
break should choose to have sexual intercourse, not only do they both risk contracting an STD but they are putting their future partners in jeopardy.
Howes said that with alcohol abuse, both sexual behavior and the number of sexually transmitted diseases increased. She said that the main reasons for the spread of STDs were not using condoms or not using them correctly.
Students are more likely to use condoms incorrectly when intoxicated. Howes said.
In order to prevent the campus-wide and nation-wide spread of STDs such as chlamydia, herpes and HIV, students should think twice before engaging in potentially destructive behavior. And if abstinence is out of the question, at least use a condom. It could save lives.

Athletes need academic monitoring
Although the pressures of balancing the high-level athletics and academics is difficult, there are resources available to help student athletes, including tutoring. Unfortunately, sometimes it becomes easier to do the work for students, rather than assisting them.
Jan Ganglohoff, former University of Minnesota office manager with academic counseling, said she was paid to write papers and engage in other forms of academic fraud for at least 20 different student athletes during a five-year period.
The story broke in the St. Paul Pioneer Press the day before the NCAA tournament began last week, leaving the University with little time to investigate.

allegations.
The Pioneer Press reportedly had the information about the academic fraud at Minnesota for as long as six months, but it chose to not break the story until a high profile period such as the NCAA tournament.
Unfortunately, it was too late for the University of Minnesota to withdraw from the tournament and allow another team to participate.
Clem Haskins, men's basketball coach said that he had no knowledge of any sort of academic fraud. However, Gangleloh claimed that Haskins was responsible for her payments, which would be illegal under NCAA rules.

Instead, the team suspended four players who were accused of being involved. The school should be applauded for taking
Haskins should have known. Part of a coach's job is to keep up with the lives of his players, including their academic lives.
It is not shocking that this sort of academic fraud exists, but the extent that is alleged at Minnesota is surprising. The institution and others will need to assume greater control of the academics of their athletes.
If a student is at an institution because of an athletic ability, academics need to be monitored closely also. Students will not learn when the work is done for them.

Prayer for Owen Meany resonate with me. There is something about adolescent memories, basking in the glow of innocence and a world slowly opening to new eyes that rings true.

Growing older, of course, I realize that nostalgia has limited worth. All the sentiment and nostalgia in the world does not translate into

I've been reminded recently, too, about the downside of nostalgia, such as when it is used as an anesthetic against evil. In the Southern Literature class that I'm taking, the white characters in the book often use the nostalgic past as a tool to maintain their status as wealthy slaveowners. For them, the nostalgic past means basking in a way of life where they enjoyed the luxuries of plantation life with little thought for the humanity of the enslaved. When nostalgia is fueled by institutions such as slavery, it should be discarded into the trash heap of history.
Other kinds of nostalgia deserve defending, though. The memories of family and friends, for example, that shape who we have become need retelling. Keeping these memories alive involves the intentional act of writing the stories down or telling the stories again and again.
I was reminded of the effort it takes to keep memories alive in a recent e-mail from my brother, who lives abroad. He mentioned that his 2-year-old nephew talked about his uncle occasionally.
Because I had seen my nephew only once and that a long time ago, I had written that I suspected that my nephew's memory had been prompted by his parents' reminders.
He responded, "Of course it gets prompted. By pictures, by our talk and by whatever goes on in those remarkable little crevices of his mind. We try very hard to keep fresh what little twinges he might have of distant family. Anyway, what we call memory is often amply supplemented by shared retelling and recalling of those times we spent in an ever more shiny — or dreary — place."
I was one of the lucky ones who had memories stoked while sitting on my dad's knee. Dad would tell tales of childhood adventures on the farm or stories of travels he took. These stories took on a life of their own in my childhood imagination and became, in an odd way, "my" stories. They helped shape my place in the family and community and gave me a powerful sense of identity. Dad's stories might have changed cosmetically with each retelling, but the connective tissue it nurtured dug deep into my marrow.
Too often, I fear, society discourages us to nurture our own memories and nostalgia. Our television-soaked consumer culture dictates its own version of our stories, and we forget our own. Not everyone can warm themselves by the glow of a happy childhood, but I suspect that everyone has certain memories when love was shown that can provide sustenance well into adult life.
Nostalgia should be more than Mark Twain's description of human life when he said that the first third is having a good time and the rest is spent remembering about it. Rather, it should be woven into our lives naturally and repeatedly, giving us a sense of who we are.
Though nostalgia may not make us rich, it can enrich our lives.

Somewhere in the manual titled "How to be a Man," there is a chapter on the rules for asking directions.
some common rules include:
Never ask directions.
Ever.
Real men don't need a map.
If you don't admit you're lost, you really won't be.
If you just keep driving a little longer, you'll get back on the correct route.
As long as there are other people driving around you, you can't really be lost.
Some rules can be interpreted in different ways. A close family friend may read the first rule and take it to heart. He could be a grandfather, who in all his years of life, has never asked for directions. Surprisingly, he has always been on time to everything and has never admitted to being lost.
I'll tell you his secret.
He drives until the roads become unfamiliar and until he can find a gas station to wash his windows. His wife then goes into the station to ask for directions.
This trick might come in handy for the happy couples braving the interstate highways in search of a beach. Ladies, if the stubborn male at the wheel starts furrowing his brow, you have no need to fear. Simply point out that the windshield has become the burial ground for one too many bugs, and insist on stopping at the next gas
station.
It doesn't help that the rules of traveling are coupled with the rules of asking directions.
According to the "How to be a Man" handbook, the rules of traveling are as follows:
Spring break is a time where these manly rules are in full force. As they drive with a growl determined to find the beach, these rules of manliness keep them behind the wheel, without maps.
Simple, effective and much easier than the alternatives.
In my life, I have witnessed coin tossing: heads for left, tails for right.
That is, they won't hesitate to admit it until after they have been found out. Only after passing by the same restaurant for the third time, you might begin to recite the specials for the day. It is not until then that the male's uncertainty of his surroundings will be admitted.
- Even if you have never been within one continent of the city you are presently in, you are not a tourist.
I have been in a car driven by a male who followed a car that "looked like it knew where it was going" through two states.
Even if it is the first time you have ever been in a city/state/country, you will know the best hotel, best beach, best restaurants, best clubs, etc.
And my favorite -- a friend once turned on the radio and drove in the direction that made the signal more clear.
For credibility, preface everything with, "Well, a buddy of mine was here last year, and he..." Fill in the blanks.
This is not to say that all men refuse to ask for directions. There are men who are aware of this awful generalization and won't hesitate to admit they have left the beaten path.
So now the women have been forewarned, and the men have grumbled a collective, "whatever, I ask for directions." We can now go forth and cover the world with little Jayhawk footprints.
As we scatter, and experience a little fun in the sun, please come back in one piece. For those men who firmly follow the manly rules of existence, please—just try to come back.

Bill looking to replace Regents
Legislation moving quickly through Senate committees
By Kristi Reimer
kreimer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
A plan to abolish the Board of Regents and establish a new system for governing higher education in Kansas is gaining momentum in the state Legislature, and members were advised yesterday to watch out.
"Being told to keep an eye on this bill is a little like standing on I-70 and watching a Mack truck come your way," said Regent Kenneth Havner at the board's monthly meeting in Topeka.
Senate Bill 345 has barreled through the Senate Education Committee, though the Senate itself has yet to pass it and already is being debated in the House Education Committee.
"This is highly unusual," said Chairman Bill Docking, who had to leave the Regents meeting mid-session to testify before the House committee. "It certainly seems that this bill is on the fast track."
The bill would do away with the board and reestablish a new nine-member board. Three sub-
boards or commissions would oversee public
universities, community and vocational colleges
and coordination issues.
"It appears to me that the governor is behind it. It appears that the House and Senate are communicating about it," said Tom Bryant, Regents interim director. "It does seem to have legs."
Board members voiced several concerns, one of which was concerning the requirement that the governor appoint members to the commissions.
"I think that should be left to the discretion of the chair." said Regent Harry Craig.
Docking said he had made Craig's suggestion to Rep. Ralph Tanner, House Education Committee chairman, who had seemed receptive to the idea.
But Docking said he had learned that Senate Majority Leader Tim Emert, one of the bill's sponsors, was strongly opposed to another suggestion to phase out the commissions through a sunset clause.
KU chancellor Robert Hemenway said he was concerned about specific details of the plan because no bill had been introduced in the House.
"We're in an extremely awkward situation," he said. "We haven't seen a bill. We don't know specifics of the language. We're handicapped in making a statement on it."
"Being told to keep an eye on this bill is a little like standing on I-70 and watching a Mack truck come your way."
Kenneth Havner
Regent
But Jon Wefald, president of Kansas State University, said this legislation was better than a bill that passed the House last year. That plan would have abolished the Board of Regents altogether.
The Senate is expected to debate the new measure next week.
In other news, the board also:
Heard a report that most graduates of the Regents Honors Academy, a program for academically talented high school students, are attending Regents and other Kansas institutions:
- Observed a demonstration of a new Regents-wide database with statistical information to be used in planning and review processes;
Encouraged faculty senate presidents in their efforts to meet with legislators on the initiative to raise faculty salaries.

Student arts package made more feasible to increase interest
By Nadia Mustafa
nmustafa@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
The Lied Center is trying to attract more students to the arts by making the arts package cheaper and more manageable.
In coordination with Kevin Yoder, student body president, and Scott Kaiser, student body vice president, members of the Lied Center management finalized changes last month to the arts package available to students through optional campus fees during enrollment, which will begin April 2.
"It was an effort to make the arts package more affordable and more attractive and to increase the number of students going to Lied Center events." he said.
About 260 students purchased the $148 arts package this year, but fewer than 100 students picked up their tickets.
Kaiser said that the optional campus fees committee approved changes to the process of picking up and securing tickets for the Lied Center, University Theatre and Music and Dance shows because in past semesters it had been inconvenient for students.
The package entitled students to attend about 26 events, including 15 shows in the Lied Center's Concert series; Chamber Music and New Direction series; some University Theatre events; and a variety of jazz, symphony, vocal and dance shows selected by the Music and Dance department of the School of Fine Arts.
next fall, the package will cost $108 for 16 events and will offer students one show in each of the Lied Center's five series, including the Broadway and Family series.
Michelle Traband, Lied Center
"It's a more manageable package freeing their hands," she said. "We consider it more a taste of the arts."
box office manager, said that she wanted to give students more flexibility.
To pick up tickets through this year's package, students have to go to the Murphy Hall Box Office and designate which nights throughout the year they would like to attend events.
She said that the complexity of the process deterred students. She said she still was considering options to make ticket pick-up process easier.
Traband said that students often forgot that they had purchased the arts package or that the number of shows overwhelmed them.
One option would give students the opportunity to pick up tickets for the entire year at the first event. They would then be able to exchange them later in the year if they were interested in attending a performance on a different night.
The second option would be to issue arts cards to students, similar to the Student Union Activities Box Office movie cards.
Traband said that she would make a decision this summer.
With the new package, students will receive membership to Friends of the Lied Center, a group supporting the Lied Center series. Friends of the Lied Center receive newsletters and information about pre-performance lectures.
Students also will become Friends of the University Theatre and will receive invitations to special University Theatre events.
Traband said that although students who bought individual tickets to Lied Center events received a half-price discount, the package offered a larger discount.

Year 2000 baby timing not feasible
By Jennifer Rough
jonks@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Bv Jennifer Roush
Although millennium fever is sweeping the nation, the race to have the first baby of 2000 may be impractical.
March 26 marks the first day in a two-week window of time for conception of babies who could have Jan.1, 2000. birthdays.
Web sites, such as www.year2000products.com, are selling clothes and toys to prospective parents of millennium babies. Other Web sites offer high-tech fertility testing devices.
However, health care workers at the University of Kansas and in Lawrence say,that conceiving a child and pinpointing its due date is complicated.
A typical pregnancy, however, can last from 38 to 42 weeks.
Henry W. Buck, head of gynecology at Watkins Memorial Health Center, said that March 26 would be the last day of a menstrual cycle for a woman who wanted to give birth to a millennium baby. He said that most year 2000 babies would be conceived around April 10, when the woman ovulates.
Buck said that he thought it was unrealistic to plan on having a year 2002 baby. Babies can be born anytime from two weeks before to two weeks after their due dates.
This window of time assumes that the woman has a 28-day cycle, Buck said. It also assumes that she would deliver the baby after exactly 40 weeks.
"Anybody trying to have a New Year baby is probably doomed to failure," Buck said.

season.
She also said that it was somewhat unreasonable to try to plan to have a year 2000 baby.
Some KU students and faculty thought all the excitement about having the first baby of 2000 was a bit overplayed.
"That's one of the things you have to put in the Lord's hands," she said. "If it's meant to be, it'll happen. Babies come when they want to come."
"I think its significance is purely with the individual," said Kelly Spurgeon, KU support services coordinator. "If a parent thinks it's important, it'll affect the child."
She said that the clinic had a policy against inducing labor just so that a woman could have a child on a specified date. Risks to the mother and child, including longer and harder labor or fetal distress, were too great.
Katie Harpstrite. Andover freshman, said that she thought it would be interesting to have a Jan. 1, 2000, birthday.
"It'd be easy to figure out how old you are." Harpstein said.
However, most students weren't worried that the possible computer problems associated with the year 2000 would affect babies with Jan.1 birthdays.
"I don't think anything bad's going to happen to the kid," said Charles Melin, a Texas Tech University student who was with a Christian student group in front of Wesco Hall. "It'd be a regular baby; I'd be a regular dad."

Once again, big screen hype will hit the little screen when Whoopi Goldberg takes the stage as host for the Academy Awards at 7:30 p.m. Sunday on ABC.
Although the popular awards show falls onto the first weekend of spring break, some students still will set aside time to watch.
Jasen Mangrun, Shawnee sophomore, said that he would meet his girlfriend to watch the Academy Awards show, instead of watching The Practice, as they do every other Sunday.
Mangrun said that he went to movies about twice a month and that the Academy Awards were not a very good representation of what the good movies were each year.
"The English Patient won about
20 awards and that could have been the worst movies I'd ever seen." he said.
Scott Bliss, manager at Liberty Hall Cinema, 642 Massachusetts St., said he watched about 70 films in the theater this year.
Bliss, who will watch the Academy Awards in Kansas City with friends, said that, like every other year, there were some nominations that he did not agree with.
"They usually aren't good indications of what the best movies and performances are," he said, "For the most part, I haven't been too satisfied with their selections in the past years."
Although Bliss said he thought Saving Private Ryan was likely to be the winner of the "Best Picture" category, he said that Life is Beautiful deserved a lot of credit.
"It's hard to overlook with all the press it's received," he said.
And the movie, which is still playing at Liberty Hall, continues to draw a fair crowd.
"It's been really steady," he said. "Last week was just about as busy as the first week it opened."
Bliss also said that the fact that *Rushmore* wasn't nominated in any category was a mistake.
The Lawrence Film Society is holding its 5th Annual Academy Awards Benefit Party at 7 p.m. at the Granada, 1020 Massachusetts St.
Last year, about 240 people attended to watch the Academy Awards on a big screen and enjoy the festivities.
Proceeds from the party will be being given to the KU film department, said Mike Gunter, technical and facilities manager at Oldfather Studios.
In the past, the money has been used to purchase equipment for making and editing films.
Everyone who attends the party will be able to fill out a ballot and choose who they think will win each category. During the contest, an overhead projector will keep track of all contestants scores and the winner will receive a trip for two to Hollywood.
Gunter already has begun to make some predictions.
"I think that Saving Private Ryan will win 'Best Picture,'" he said. "I think it's probably the biggest achievement of the year."
Gunter said he also thought Shakespeare in Love and Life is Beautiful were good candidates.
Door prizes will also be given out and hors d'ouvres will be served.

Financial aid opportunities exist for Asian students
Special to the Kansan
By Julia Nicholson Special to the Kansan
The economic crisis that hit Asia in 1997 left many students from that region wondering whether they would be able to finish their education in the United States. More than a year later, the economic situation has forced students to seek ways to save money.
Asian students looking for financial aid can turn to the Association of South East Asian Nations Student Assistance Awards Program (ASAAP), a national grant for students from Malaysia, Indonesia, the Philippines and Thailand.
ASAAP looks for students who demonstrate financial need, academic excellence, institutional cost sharing, and
commitment to return home following graduation, as determined in an essay attached to the application.
The grant works on the principle of matching funds, which means that the amount of money granted by ASAAP must be matched by the amount of money a student receives from the institution, in the form of wages from oncampus employment, scholarships or loans. Grants range from $2,000 to $5,000 per student for an academic year.
Budi Nata Djaja, Banjarmasin, Indonesia, senior, received an ASAAP grant for the 1998-1999 academic year. He had applied for scholarships from International Student Services several times before and had never gotten one, so he was surprised when
they nominated him for the award.
Djaja received $6,000 that would be spread over two semesters.
"It helps a lot, so that I can finish my studies," he said.
Potential applicants should visit the ISS office for further details. The deadline is April 23.
Another option for students seeking financial aid is to apply to the Asian Students in America-Higher Education Loan Program (ASIA-HELP), sponsored by the Institute of International Education. The interest free loans, which range from $2,000 to $5,000, can be repaid within three years of receiving a degree in the United States. They are available to students from Korea, Thailand, Indonesia and
Malaysia.
This year, the national program has expanded to include three selection rounds. For each round, the University can nominate four students, chosen by academic merit as well as leadership potential. If a student does not qualify for one round, he or she automatically will be eligible for the next round. If there are funds left over after the three rounds, there may be a fourth. Nominees from each university will have to complete an online application form, which may include an essay.
In Fall 1998,11 KU students applied.

"I don't know whether it was that they didn't know about it or had made other arrangements," said Mike Ediger, assistant director of Interna-
Four KU students, all of whom were from Malaysia, received funding totaling $14,000.
As with the ASAAP grant, students have to demonstrate matching funding. If they are not able to come up with enough money of their own, qualified candidates can take out a special loan of up to $2,000 from the Kansas University Endowment Association.
The deadline for consideration for an ASIA-HELP loan is April 2. Applications are available at the ISS office, Room 2 Strong Hall, or at http://www.ukans.edu/~issfacts/asia-help.app.htm.

Learned Club unites students with alumni, warm meals
By Amanda Kaschube Special to the Kansan
The Learned Club, a restaurant located inside the Adams Alumni Center gives students the chance to mingle with faculty and administrators, while enjoying food not covered in plastic.
Charles Brancaccio, Arlington, Texas, senior, takes advantage of the specials the club has to offer.
Kendall Day, St. Francis senior, agrees with Brancaccio.
"They have amazing lunch deals including the all-you-can-eat prime rib lunch buffet for $8.95." Day said.
To dine at the club, students must pay a $15 for an Alumni Association membership. Included in the membership is a free meal during finals and a T-shirt.
Brian Greve, manager of the Learned Club,
said the club was more popular with alumni than students because students were unaware that it existed.
and be unin formed about the building," he said. "We created the student portion on the Alumni Association so students will have a link to the University and so that they will always have a home on the Hill."
Greve said students could afford to eat at the Learned Club even on tighter budgets.
"Students will walk by the Alumni building
"We created the student portion on the Alumni Association so students will have a link to the University and so that they will always have a home on the Hill."
Brian Greve Learned Club manager
"We would like to see more students over lunch time," he said. "We have sandwiches and buffers for $6 to 8."
The Learned Club offers seafood, pasta,
sandwiches and a variety of meat dishes.
Similar meals at Wescoe Terrace and at the Prairie Room in the Kansas Union are not much cheaper.
"It's one of the nicest restaurants in all of Lawrence, I think." Day said. "It's not just a place to go on a date, but it's a nice place for a meeting with your professor because it's on campus. Plus, they take reservations so you are seated quickly."
The club is open Monday through Friday for lunch and Monday through Saturday for dinner.
Greve said the main purpose of the club was to increase membership of the Alumni Association and promote the University.
"With the Learned Club, members can get more involved in the University and have a fellowship with it as well," Greve said.
The restaurant opened in 1983 when the Alumni Center was built.
He said the amount of diners had remained constant throughout the years.
Day said the business-casual atmosphere and the quality of the staff was a bonus.
"Sometimes you can see famous people there too," he said. "Last summer, I sat next to Bob Costas."

Administration warns the Serbs
U.S. says NATO will act if Yugoslav leader refuses accord
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — The Clinton administration warned that "NATO will act" against Serb targets if Yugoslav leader Slobodan Milosevic doesn't accept the peace accord ethnic Albanians signed in Paris yesterday.
"The Serbs will be responsible for the consequences," said Secretary of State Madeleine Albright.
Air Force chief of staff Gen Michael Ryan, meanwhile, said Milosevic's forces are well-prepared and well-equipped for such an attack.
There is a distinct possibility we
will lose aircraft." Ryan said.
Ryan and other top military commanders testified at a Senate hearing as negotiators on the Albanian side of the Kosovo dispute signed a peace agreement in Paris.
At the White House, press secretary Joe Lockhart warned that "NATO will act if President Milosevic and the Serbs, through their intransigence at the talks or through further aggression, resist finding some political settlement."
Of a Serbian buildup of troops along the Kosovo border, Lockhart said, "Any buildup is of concern. Any further aggression here we would view as a grave mistake."
And Albright, speaking with reporters as she prepared to brief senators on the latest developments, said she had a message for Milosevic: "NATO stands ready to take whatever measures are necessary."
Later in the day, the Senate was prepared to debate a move by Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison, R-Texas, to sharply restrict funds for any U.S. military operation in Kosovo. But Senate leaders delayed the debate until after the briefing from Albright and other members of the president's national security team.
Albright said she had spoken to Kosovo's Albanian leaders by phone, "and I congratulated them for their courage and vision in signing the agreement negotiated in Paris."
At the same time, she said, "the Serbian negotiators have gone backwards," refusing to even discuss the possibility of a NATO peacekeeping in Kosovo.
"Obviously, there can be no agreement if the Serbs do not sign, and right now there is no sign that the Serbs will agree," Albright said.
"The situation is as clear as it could be. The Albanians have said yes to the accords and the Serbs are saying no," she added. She said if Belgrade doesn't reverse course, "the Serbs will be responsible for the consequences."
Yugoslavia's air defenses are sophisticated and heavily defended, Ryan, the Air Force chief of staff, told the Senate Armed Services Committee earlier Thursday.
Committee to act.
"These guys are very good. So taking on these defenses with air power will not be easy," he said. "There is a distinct possibility we will lose aircraft in trying to penetrate those defenses."
Ryan said that the air-defense capability "not just in Kosovo but within the whole Yugoslav land mass" includes many surface-to-air missiles and other weapon capable of shooting down U.S. warplanes.
Special education costs grow for schools
Republicans, Democrats debate spending increase
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — The school district in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, already had overspent its special education budget by $1 million when the Supreme Court ruled it had to pay for one-on-one nursing for a student — adding $30,000 a year.
Garret Frey, the 16-year-old sophomore on a ventilator because of an accident that left him paralyzed, isn't the issue, said Superintendent Lew Finch.
The case is really about the federal government creating rules requiring schools to educate children with disabilities but not sending enough money to ensure they can afford it.
glong enough money to buy a car. If schools don't get more help, they may need to raise local taxes, Finch said. "This might be the case that opens a lot of eyes."
Special education is one of the most emotional issues schools face, and one of their fastest-growing costs. States long have fought with local schools and the Education Department about costs. Now Republicans and Dem
ocrats in Congress are debating how much the federal government should help.
Nearly 6 million children receive special education instruction and services costing $60 billion, about $5 billion of that from the federal government. About $55 billion comes from states and local districts, which follow strict rules stemming from the 1975 federal law covering special education.
States get anywhere from 7 percent to 12 percent of their special education money from the federal program. The law allows the federal government to contribute up to 40 percent or about $11 billion.
or about $5 billion.
"The first obligation is to fulfill the needs demanded from the laws already on the books," said Sen. Judd Gregg, R-N.H., who has proposed increasing the federal contribution to at least $5 billion.
Republicans, not usually known for increasing education spending, have criticized President Clinton's request for a 1 percent increase
In their first education debate this year, Republicans and Democrats sparred about a bill that would let schools spend money sought by the Clinton administration for new elementary school teachers on special education instead. The Senate approved the idea, but the House didn't consider it.
In 1975, there were about 4 million special-needs children, representing 8 percent of the school age population
SPECIAL EDUCATION SPENDING
Today, there are 5.8 million special-needs children, representing about 12 percent of the school age population.
The cost of educating the nations special-needs children is $60 billion. $5 billion comes from the federal government. $55 billion comes from the states and local districts, states and local districts.
in special education funding. Giving the states more special education money frees local money for other needs such as new computers, new teachers and new school buildings. Gregg says.
But Democrats want federal money spent on the teachers and other early education programs that they say could help reduce the number of children classified as learning disabled, the biggest category of special education students.
If budget restraints were gone, the administration would support more special education money, said Judith E. Heumann, who runs the Education Department's special education programs.
Witness to collision of train and truck talks to investigators
The Associated Press.
BOURBONNAIS, III. — A potential witness has come forward who claims to have seen the crash of an Amtrak passenger train that rammed a truck, killing 11 people, an investigator said today.
The motorist contacted Amtrak late Wednesday, saying he was driving behind the truck, and representatives of the National Transportation Safety Board will attempt to interview him in detail later today, the NTSB's John Goglia told a news briefing.
Investigators "believe that this witness has valuable information" and is credible, Goglia said, though he declined to elaborate.
"We believe there may be other witnesses to this accident," he said, based on the witness's report that other vehicles were in the area at the time of the crash. He encouraged any witnesses to come forward.
Authorities also discussed their re-enactment of the crash, conducted late Wednesday.
Two nights earlier at the same site and at about the same time, Amtrak's "City of New Orleans" train plowed into a tractor-trailer loaded with steel. This time, investigators — using the same truck cab — to help figure out what happened in the seconds before the nation's deadliest train wreck in three years.
Investigators have also talked again to the engineer, who remained in the hospital, and the driver of the truck, John Stokes of Manteno, Ill.
NTSB spokesman Phil Frame would not comment on what the engineer, who remained hospitalized yesterday, said.
There were reports Tuesday that the engineer said immediately after the crash that the truck driver had tried to zig-zag his semitrailer through the crossing gates after they had come down.
Goglia said authorities are analyzing two tire tracks in the mud at the crossing that "would indicate that somebody tried to go around the gates."
The re-enactment was conducted at about 9:45 p.m. almost the same time the "City of New Orleans" approached the crossing 50 miles south of Chicago on Monday. This time, a single engine moved slowly down the tracks, sounding its horn while crossing gates came down and warning lights flashed. A tractor-trailer sat marked behind the gates.
A string of freight cars was also placed on a nearby side track to see if they could have impaired the truck driver's view. The cab of the truck involved in the accident was used, with an identical trailer carrying the same amount of steel bars, Frame said.
The large truck was able to get around the gates without knocking them down, investigators said today. During the reenactment, investigators timed how many seconds it took the truck to cross the tracks at various speed limits.
Also Wednesday, an attorney for passengers David and Laura Roe of New Orleans filed a lawsuit in Cook County Circuit Court against Amtrak, Illinois Central Railroad, Stokes and his employer, Melco Transfer Co., seeking $300,000 in damages for their injuries.
Jury decides for Big Tobacco in union class-action lawsuit
Victory lends boost to companies' stock confidence in ads
The Associated Press
AKRON, Ohio — A federal jury handed Big Tobacco a big victory yesterday, rejecting a $2 billion lawsuit accusing cigarette makers of deliberately trying to hook less-educated blue-collar union workers.
The class-action lawsuit was brought by 114 Ohio union health funds in an attempt to recoup the costs of treating workers' smoking-related illnesses. It was the first of at least 14 such lawsuits around the country to go to trial.
After two days of deliberations, the jury ruled for the tobacco industry on all counts.
Wall Street responded by driving up tobacco stock prices.
We are delighted with the court's ruling," said Gregory Little, a lawyer for Philip Morris. "This jury sent a clear message reaffirming the health risks of smoking have been
well-known for decades, and that cigarette companies have not withheld material information regarding health effects from the public."
Patrick Coughlin, attorney for the union health funds, said, "It's hard to understand how somebody could look at all that activity and then say that's all right or that didn't impact millions and millions of people. It's tough to lose this case, but there will be more."
Around the country, several similar cases have been thrown out, with some judges saying the unions have no legal standing unless they file separate lawsuits on behalf of every smoker.
The Ohio health funds argued that the industry concealed the dangers of smoking and used promotional gimmicks and images such as Joe Camel and the Marlboro Man, "aware that people with lower incomes and less education are more susceptible to the advertising," attorney Mike Withey said.
The tobacco companies contended there was nothing illegal about their ad campaigns

Panel studies compulsive gambling
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — More than 5 million Americans are pathological or problem gamblers and another 15 million are at risk of becoming so, according to a survey commissioned by a national panel studying the impact of gambling.
The findings of the National Opinion Research Center survey, commissioned by the National Gambling Impact Study Commission, drew immediate criticism from the gambling industry, which said the report contained sensational language and material designed to put gambling in a harsh light.
Even so, the report gives some ammunition to defenders of legalized gambling by putting the annual cost of compulsive gambling at $5 billion, well below the costs of such social problems as mental illness, alcohol abuse, diabetes and traffic accidents.
The prevalence and impact of compulsive gambling have become major points of contention for the nine-member commission, which is due to complete two years of work by sending a report to Congress in June.
The report calls the economic impact of problem gambling relatively small — a phrase that troubled some members of the National Gambling Impact Study Commission.
Opening a two-day meeting in Washington to work on their final report, members of the commission grappled with how to measure the negative results of gambling.
The national commission "Everybody on the commission has really struggled with this. How do you estimate the social cost? It's very difficult to do," said commission chairwoman Kay James. "At best, I think what we can say at this point is we really need more research. We need more information."
The cornerstone of their work on that issue is the National Opinion Research Center survey, done at the University of Chicago in collaboration with other researchers. It is the first widespread survey since the 1970s.
The report found that 2.5 million Americans are "pathological" gambels, a disorder codified in 1984 by the American Psychiatric Association. Another 3 million are problem gamblers, the report found.

Compulsive Gambling
Combining telephone surveys with interviews at casinos, the report concluded that people are about twice as likely to be problem or pathological gamblers if a casino is within 50 miles of their home.
A separate study released yesterday by the National Research Council estimates that in a given year, 1.8 million adults and as many as 1.1 million adolescents are pathological gamblers. That study found that pathological gamblers are far more likely to commit crimes, run up large debts, damage relationships and kill themselves.
Commission member John Wilhelm, general president of the Hotel Employees and Restaurant Employees International Union, said he was pleased that most studies, including the two discussed yesterday, found similar numbers a few to several million — of people with gambling problems.

Deep dish delivery

Kansan staff writer
Pizza delivery.
Think tips. Think occasional parking and speeding tickets.
Think big tips. Think late nights and traffic. Think big fat tips and forget the occasional crabby customer.
Chris Hogland,
Coffeyville
PYRAMID
junior, is a driver for Pyramid Pizza, 507 W. 14th St. He said that he considered the job to be a pretty good gig.
Pyramid drivers make $6 per hour, 75 cents a delivery, plus tips. Thirty deliveries a night is not uncommon and not bad for a college student.
And as far as congeniality skills go, it's less demanding then waiting tables or tending bar.
"I like the job because I don't have to deal with people," Hogland said. "You just give them their pizza and go."
Another bonus is the free meals. Pyramid drivers get all the pizza they can eat during their shift
Pyramid driver Tracy Clifton, Lawrence senior, said that all the pizza you can eat can be too much and sometimes she gets sick of it.
They've come to expect a pizza to come home with her, after work, she said.
Hogland said he also liked having a flexible schedule for days when he had papers and tests due
"I can always get time off when I need it," he said.
Although interactions with customers are brief, they don't always go without incident. Andy Case, a Lawrence freshman on hiatus for the semester, delivers for Little Ceasar's, 1410 Kasold Dr. He said that he once had a woman try to beat him up because he was late with her nizza.
"She was up in my face and yelling," he said. "And I wasn't even that late." The woman paid for the pizza because it was still hot, but didn't give him a tip.
The most memorable delivery experience for Case was the time he was run over by a car while making a delivery. As he was dropping off a pizza, the homeowner's dog
bolted out the door. Because the man had given him a $5 tip, Case thought he would be nice and run after the dog.
He said he caught up with the errant canine and was carrying it back when a car turning right hit Case from behind. He rolled over the hood but, neither he nor the dog were hurt. The dog's owner added an extra $5 to his tip for the ordeal.
"Ten bucks — That's a good tip!" Case said. Brian Kalar, Northport, Ala., senior, is a driver for Rudy's Pizzeria, 704 Massachusetts St. He said that one of the interesting things about delivering pizza was that it provided the opportunity to see people in their homes.
"You see what they watch, the music they listen to and the way they live," he said.
This is a contrast to waiting tables because those customers are in public environment. he said.
Kalar used to work at Pizza Shuttle, 1601 West 23rd St. He said that late at night, customers would sometimes offer him beers. As far as tips go, he said that college students were pretty good tippers because most of them knew what it was like to work in the service industry.
Mark and Katherine Dodson, owners of the 14th and Ohio Street Pyramid location, said that the busiest night for their drivers was Monday nights because Pyramid offers a two-for-one pizza deal. Many students order enough pizza to feed themselves all week, Mark said.
After 23 years in its location, the 14th and Ohio Pyramid Pizza will move. June 1 to Ninth and Mississippi streets, next to Jayhawk Food Mart, Katherine said.
Pyramid will continue to do most of its delivery to campus, Mark said, but the move would provide more room for dine-in customers.
Most of Pyramid's deliveries are in a concentrated location and their drivers average about 50 miles per night. Mark said.
Case said that sometimes he drove 100 miles a night. Little Caesars's drivers receive reimbursement for mileage in addition to their $1.5 wage and tips, Case's 1983 Toyota Tercel has racked up 9,000 miles since he began working delivery five months ago.
Given that delivery can be a pretty lucrative job for a college student, why aren't more females working as drivers?
Mark said that gender wasn't a factor in his hiring practices, but there were few women that apply for the position. He said he didn't know why this was.
Clifton said that some women might feel uncomfortable going to unfamiliar houses alone, although she personally had never been concerned.
Case said that more girls should apply because they often made better tips.
"I don't want to sound sexist, but it's true." he said.
He agreed that safety issues could be a contributing factor in the gender disparity among delivery drivers.
"In the beginning, I was a little concerned myself," he said. "But I don't worry about it anymore."
Having delivery drivers carry only a small amount of cash is one safety precaution that most restaurants take. Katherine said that they had a driver robbed once, but the thief only took the pizzas.
She said that although she was the owner, she still made deliveries and there wasn't anywhere in town that she felt unsafe. But there are some deliveries that she prefers not to make.
Nasty lyrics are a tasty treat
"The nudie bars order a lot of pizzas," she said.
MUSIC RECOURSE
Eminem
The Slim Shady LP
Rating: A
by Matt Cox Kansan music critic
Eminem proves that rap from a white boy doesn't have to be compared to Vanilla Ice.
After listening to the album, it's hard to deny that Eminem, Marshall Mathers, and sometimes called Shady, has a unique and irresistible skill. Each song deals with either the Detroit rapper's sadistic plots of revenge, thoughts on life and death, or how he's sick of being judged by his color.
The lyrics are either crass, about drugs, politically incorrect, undeniably demented or a combination of all four. And his honesty and frankness come alive in the compelling grooves.
Mathers pokes fun at different people throughout the album including Dr. Dre, Lauryn Hill, Kurt Kobain and even Marty Schottenheimer. It's either hilarious or a very intense insult that can make the listener hope that the person he mocks doesn't listen to the song.
In the song, he sarcastically raps about everything from impregnating a Spice
The album starts with a humorous public service announcement that assures the views on the album are skewed. It leads directly into his current MTV Buzz Bin single, *My Name Is*, a colorful journey into the life of Mathers.
Girl to smoking weed to openly drinking and driving. Dr. Dre, the rapper who signed Mathers to his label, is featured in the song, apparently counseling Mathers to calm down. The bass line causes any listener to bob his head along while Mathers assures that "God sent [him] to piss the world off."
'97 Bonnie & Clyde is the most disturbing song on the album. The song features gibberish from his daughter, Hallie, as he makes her think her mother is asleep when she's actually dead. The lyrics are a story of what Mathers would like to happen to his ex-girlfriend. "Oh, where's momma? She's taking a little nap in the trunk. Oh that smell? Da-Da musta runned over a skunk."
The lyrics get more disturbing, but the trick works, and gets the listener glued to the stereo to see what repulsive thing he'll come up with next.
Rock Bottom, his ode to all the happy people, shows his most humble side. This rapper from the slums raps about living in dire straits with empty promises and broken dreams. The hook is immediately repeatable when he says, "When life makes you mad."
None of the songs show any remorse for anything he says or does except *My Fault*, a song where he explains how he was involved in a death. He raps in a mad and second fashion, telling a story of a

EDtv shows human need to invade privacy
MOVIE REVIEW
EDtv
Rating : A
By Brendan Walsh Kansan movie critic
While the premise of EDtv may seem disappointingly similar to The Truman Show or MTV's The Real World, it's an original take on the invasion of privacy, the ruthlessness of corporate America and society's lust for sexual scandal.
Video store manager Ed (Matthew McConaughey) agrees to star in a real-life television show that will chronicle his every move 24 hours a day. Although he quickly falls in love with the celebrity status he attains, he just as quickly wants out of the public spotlight when it starts to interfere with his personal life.
The show initially gets terribly low ratings, until Ed's brother
Director Ron Howard portrays the TV audience as waiting for some sort of scandal, preferably sexual, to distract them from their dull lives. America's obsession with scandal is a particularly timely topic, and Howard does a wonderful job showing that he understands the mentality of such people. Yet, he is not overly judgmental.
(Woody Harrelson) cheats on me girlfriend (Jenna Elfman), and Ed starts dating her.
One could argue that he should have more clearly portrayed them as evil vultures feeding on the misery of others, but Howard trusts his audience to come to that conclusion on its own.
The invasion of Ed's privacy has serious consequences in his romantic life, and in the lives of his family members. Public opinion polls get in the way of Ed successfully pursuing his girlfriend, and family secrets — which should have been left in the closet
The movie's cast is superb. McConaughey, Harrelson and Elfman all give great performances, and other significant roles are played by Martin Landau, Ellen DeGeneres, Adam Goldberg, Rob Reiner and Dennis Hopper. Michael Moore, RuPaul, Jay Leno and George Plimpton also make notable cameos.
- are,exposed.
All of the characters are believable and therefore likable. McConaughey and Elfman's characters are particularly easy to sympathetic with, and it's hard not to root for a successful relationship.
The story line also is easy to believe, but still contains several clever twists and turns. This movie is what The Truman Show could have been if it wasn't so preachy and melodramatic, and what The Real World could be if anyone cared about its cast members. EDtO is a wonderful achievement.

Kansas baseball on a streak, ready for Cornhuskers
By Matt Tait
mattt@kansan.com
Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas baseball team is on a streak. Both as a team and as individuals, the Jayhawks' performance has improved dramatically in the past week, and the team has won its last four games.
"We've been playing much better baseball," coach Bobby Randall said. "And that is because of two things that have improved a ton: pitching and defense."
The Jayhawks, 7-12 overall and 3-6 in the Big 12, have improved defensively as of late, but the four-game winning streak has also seen the resurgence of the Jayhawks' offense.
Sophomore shortstop John Nelson has logged a streak of his own, with hits in 10 straight games. Nelson said the success of the team had relaxed him and fed his streak.
"Hitting is contagious," Nelson said. "When everybody else is doing good it takes pressure off of your performance."
The team is delivering runs, 31 in its last three games, and hits, 36 in its last three games. It is getting strong pitching from its starters and more depth from its bullpen. The team also is avoiding errors.
"In baseball you feed off of success," Randall said. "Depth is starting to come out of our bullpen, and if you get a couple of guys hitting, it makes it look easier for everyone."
This weekend with Nebraska is a big series for Kansas, Randall said.
"This is big, big," Randall said.
"This weekend is big, last weekend was big, and next weekend is big. But if you don't take care of business this weekend, next weekend isn't quite as big."
As far as the team is concerned, Randall is exactly right.
Nelson said, "We're going to take every game seriously and keep the same approach. These next three games are big conference games for us."
Scheduled game-one starter Chris Williams said he realized the importance of this weekend's games and expected to provide a strong performance.
"It makes me feel comfortable knowing that we're going to go out and score some runs and play defense, and I expect to go out and throw a great game," Williams said.
Nebraska comes to Lawrence with a 13-6 record and a 2-1 mark in Big 12 play. The Cornhuskers are led by Ken Harvey, who has belted 11 home runs on the year and is hitting. 526. Early this week, the Cornhuskers enjoyed a record-setting 50-3 trouncing of Chicago State.
On the mound, Nebraska's Scott Fries leads the team with a 3-1 record and a 3.34 earned run average.
Williams will face off against Fries on the mound in today's game at 3 p.m.

Men's tournament to cut into spring break
By Melinda Weaver
Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas men's tennis team will spend most of its spring break in California as it compete against Yale, San Diego and San Diego State.
The Jayhawks will try to extend a six-match winning streak that began after the season-opening loss to Louisville on Jan. 16.
Coach Mark Riley said he hoped this trip would help the team get used to playing outdoors and prepare them for the tough Big 12 Conference competition that they have to face the rest of the season.
"We have to get used to playing outdoors because the rest of our conference games are outdoors, and we don't have very much practice," Riley said. "The Texas schools have been playing outdoors all year. Now it's time to get prepared for the long haul of the conference schedule."
Eight of the next 10 teams on the Kansas schedule are ranked, and
KANSAS TENNIS
six are ranked higher than Kansas. On the trip to California, only No. 73 San Diego is ranked.
No. 37 Kansas defeated No. 70 Nebraska in its conference opener 4-3. Freshman Quentin Blakeen clinched the victory with a three-seed win over Kai Rieke in No. 5 singles.
"We need to be more consistent." Riley said. "Sometimes the top of the lineup carries us and sometimes the bottom of the lineup has to carry us. If everyone could play well at the same time, we would be a very good team. I think if we are all clicking, we can beat anyone."
Though the team is led by two seniors, Luis Uribe and Kenny Powell, the lower half of the lineup consists of three freshman, Blakeney, Alex Barragan and Rodrigo Echagara, who each carry a fourgame winning streak into their match with Yale.
Uribe said the challenge now is learning to compete outdoors.
"We haven't played outdoors in months," he said. "It's important to practice and get used to the conditions as fast as we can."
The team will finish its spring break in Tulsa competing against its Region V rival.
Tulsa is ranked No. 32 and has two players in the singles rankings. Kansas has lost its last two meetings with Tulsa, including a shutout last season, but leads the series 10-4.

"We hope to come back undefeated over the spring break," Uribe said. "As the coach has said, we haven't played a complete match where everyone is playing their best at the same time. I hope we can have that soon, but it isn't easy."
In No. 1 singles, Uribe has defeated eight ranked opponents this season, and in No. 2 singles Powell defeated No. 81 Tyson Parry in the Ice Volleys in Minnesota.
Uribe said the team goal is simple: win.

Track ready to go the distance in upcoming meets
Kansan sportswriter
By Mike Miller
At least that is how most of the team has perceived this weekend, as the men's and women's track teams begin their outdoor season with two meets in three days.
Now the real season begins.
The teams competed yesterday at Emporia and will compete again tomorrow at Waco, Texas.
TRACK AND FIELD
The reason for the two meets is to allow most of the team an opportunity to compete at Emporia, while fewer athletes will make the trip to Waco.
"It just feels like track," said junior pole vaulter Garrett Attett. "Being outdoors is how
These competitions will be the first in over three weeks for a majority of the team since competing in the Big 12 Championships March 5 and 6.
you picture it."
The outdoor season marks the return of key athletes for both teams, with All-American senior heptathlete Candy Mason for the
Mason, who competed at last weekend's College Station relay, won the heptathlon and broke the school record for the fourth time in her career with 5,674 points. The score automatically qualified her for the NCAA Outdoor Championships in June.
women and senior pole vaulter Marc Romito for the men.
Romito finished second in the pole vault with a mark of 15 feet, 11 inches.
The time off was beneficial for the team, as most athletes spent time rehabilitating injuries, working on technique or resting.
Sophomore Charlie Gruber, who won the 1,000 meters at the Big 12 and then provisionally qualified for nationals, spent the last
three weeks doing longer workouts, inter faced with some interval training.
In short, he took it easy.
Sophomore All-American Scott Russell injured his back a week before the Big 12 Championships, but spent the last three weeks in rehabilitation and enjoying the outdoors.
"I've been busting to get outside for about a month now," he said. "I love the events that outdoors brings; the javelin, hammer throw. It's lots of fun."
"I was resting up, trying to build some base.
I feel ready to run through," he said.
After this weekend, the teams will have time to rest until they compete in the Texas Relays April 1st.

The caller, who was not comfortable enough in his opinions
Erin Thompson sports@kansan.com
to give his name, brought up several complaints about the Kansas athletic program.
What is Kansas athletic director Bob Frederick hoping to accomplish by considering playing a football game against Notre Dame?
There are two sides to the coin. The down sides — Kansas is putting its bowl considerations in serious jeopardy. If the extra game is added to the schedule, Kansas will need seven wins to be bowl eligible. The Big 12 conference is steadily improving and is considered one of the toughest conferences in the nation. It will be tough for Kansas to garner six wins playing the likes of Kansas State, Colorado, Nebraska and Texas A&M, but to expect seven wins could be a lot to ask.
But there is an upside to that coin that the caller had not considered. Kansas will pick up a much needed $600,000 for the athletics department. For a department that competes in one of the top conferences, it is sorely out of shape. Compared to the Nebraska indoor football practice field, Anschutz looks like a junior high complex.
Notre Dame guarantees national coverage. NBC (or Notre Dame Broadcasting Company as its known around the sports world) covers every Notre Dame game nationally. It's not often Kansas football gets national coverage.
Freshmen have not been able to play in varsity games throughout most of college athletics' history. Now that they can, 18-year olds are expected to step into a position that they may not be comfortable with. Not only are these young men and women away from home for the first time, they are sometimes called upon to be the saviors of programs.
If Terry Allen truly wants to take the Kansas football program to the next level, the only way to do it is by playing teams who are already at the next echelon. Notre Dame is routinely ranked in the top 25. Kansas can take a lot away from this opportunity.
Jeff Boschee was expected to lead the Jayhawks as a point guard when he probably was still missing his mom's cooking. He did a fine job stepping into the role, but what was another year of adjustment been able to give him? Probably more confidence and less turnovers early in the season.
Another interesting topic this elusive caller brought up was freshman eligibility. The NCAA should not allow freshman to be elibible, he said.
I nope you take time to chew on these thoughts while sitting on the beach during spring break and send some feedback this way.
Banning freshman eligibility would reduce players who use their freshman year as a one-year training ground for the NBA. But at the same time more players would probably side step college all together if they knew they would be required to sit out a year.

You may start out a little wild and reckless this year, but you'll learn how to calm down, and why you need to. In March, go back to a previous personality to be most successful, and try not to be reckless with your good fortune in April. A loved one helps you settle down in May, and teaches you a valuable lesson. Work you love adds to your coffers in August. Travel back to a favorite place looks like a good idea for November. Stay with the traditions to be most successful in December, and heed a technical friend to avoid a problem in February.

Taurus (April 20-May 20): Today is a 6.

Gemini (May 21-June 21): Today is a 6. Your energy level should be high today, but you should still be careful. Don't go racing off in all directions. Looks like you're not getting strong leadership now, so you'll have to provide it yourself. Don't just follow the person who's selling the loudest.
Cancer (June 22-July 22): Today is a 6.
Your interrogation should be over by today, and you'll be able to relax with friends soon. You've taken on a tough challenge lately, and you may have wondered if you were doing it right. If you can avoid risking money, your chances improve considerably.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Today is a 6.
Your romantic relationship may have taken on a whole new character. It's been a good week for working together, and that can also raise problems. If you can do it, though, it forms a bond that's tough to break.
You may have to let go of one of your fantasies.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Today is a 6.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Today is a 6.

Pisces (Feb, 19-March 20); Today is a 6.
Embarrassingly enough, it looks like the focus is on money today. It's only embarrassing because you'd rather be giving than receiving, and it looks like you're receiving right now. Relax and enjoy it.

Pain reliever won't use McGwire's image again
ST. LOUIS — Photos of Cardinals slugger Mark McGwire no longer will be used for advertising a so-called allnatural pain reliever derived from rainforest plants.
THE MUSIC OF HONOR
McGwire and People First Inc., the distributor of a pain reliever called
The Freedom
McGwire: Sued distributor of all-natural pain reliever.

competing with McGwire's lawyer, Michael Kahn,
said the court order stops the initial misuse of McGwire's name and
"establishes a mechanism for stopping others."
The order also blocks People First from using any trademarks of the Cardinals or any other major league baseball team.
McGwire sued the company last month over People First's claims that he endorsed The Freedom Formula.
The Freedom Formula's brochure touted the product as an all-natural, herbal pain reliever derived from rain forest plants.
The brochure included a photo of McGwire holding a bottle of the pain reliever. Former Cardinals hitting coach Dave Parker, who promotes The Freedom Formula, took the photo last season in the Cardinals clubhouse.
The company also credited its use to enabling him to break the home-run record last season.
As a courtesy to Parker, McGwire posed for the picture but never consented to its use "for any commercial purpose," the lawsuit contended.
Senior PGA tour to get back to its roots today
The amazing show put on by Tommy Bolt, Roberto De Vicenzo, Art Wall and the late Julius Boros 20 years ago in the Legends of Golf tournament was not only exciting, it was important.
ST AUGUSTINE, Fla. — Had there been no money, no television cameras, the four men involved still would have remembered it as a wonderful afternoon and evening of golf.
their six-hole playoff in 1979 stands as the critical moment in the formation of the Senior PGA Tour.
"It had everything to do with the tour
starting, in my estimation." Bolt said.
The tour returns to its roots today with the first round in the Legends tournament.
The tournament will bring back memories of 1979, when Bolt, De Vicenzo, Wall and Boros combined for 11 birdies.
"I holed one, then I'd point my finger at Roberto and say, 'Top that one.'" Bolt said. "He'd hole his putt on top of it and point his finger back at me." Bolt.

Boros and De Vicenzo eventually split first prize, but the real reward
was the attention they drew to seniors golf.
A year later, Arnold Palmer turned 50, and the Senior Tour was up and running with two events and $250,000 in prize money.
De Vicenzo, Wall and Bolt will play on 20th anniversary of the tournament that started it all.
"I had no idea it could grow into this," Wall said. "It totally boggles my mind."

Surgeon removes Joe Torre's prostate
The Associated Press
ST. LOUIS — The surgeon who removed Joe Torre's cancerous prostate gland yesterday believes the disease had not spread, and said the prognosis was excellent for the New York Yankees manager.
"It was very routine," said Dr. William Catalona, a pioneer in the detection and treatment of prostate cancer. "I think he had a very early prostate cancer and it treated very successfully."
and it went very smoothly."
Lab tests on the removed gland and surrounding lymph nodes won't be complete for a few days, but Catalona said, "The way it looked to the naked eye, the prognosis is excellent."
Catalona said the cancer was *sq small he couldn't see it even as he held the removed gland
Yankees
in his hand. It was diagnosed by the prostate-specific antigen test that Catalona developed a decade ago and confirmed by a biopsy.
Prostate cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer in American men and the second deadliest behind lung cancer. The walnut-sized gland is at the base of the bladder in men. Men 50 years and older are most at risk.
In cases where cancer is confined to a removed prostate, the patient's prognosis is essentially as good as for a man who never had the disease, Catabna said.
Torre, 58, underwent the 21/2 hour surgery at Barnes-Jewish Hospital, where he was expected to remain for 3 to 4 days.
Torre will then recuperate in Florida, said Jeff Wehling, a family friend.
Catalona pioneered a surgical technique known as nerve-sparing radical prostatectomy, which he used on Torre. The procedure generally results in
fewer problems, including impotence, than conventional prostate surgery.
Catalonia said there appeared to be very little damage to the nerves surrounding Torre's prostate.
Catalona said Torre seemed at ease before the surgery, talking baseball and joking with doctors.
Torre's wife, Ali, was ecstatic after learning about the successful surgery, Wehling said. She then called family members and acquaintances, including Yankees owner George Steinbrenner.
"He was very upbeat, cracking all of jokes — he was really very amusing," Catalona said. "I can see now why everybody likes him so much."
Barnes-Jewish spokeswoman Kathryn Holleman said the hospital had received hundreds of calls from well-wishers. Wehling told Torre had also received numerous flowers and cards, many from St. Louis residents who watched Torre when he played for and later managed the Cardinals.
"I'm going to encourage him not to back go too soon." Catalona said. "He's not a very stressful job."
There is no timetable for Torre's return to the World Series champions, but Catalona said his patients typically went back to work 6-12 weeks after surgery.
"He's found greater success in New York, but the people in St. Louis still have incredibly fond memories." Wehlung said.
Catalona was recommended to Torre by former Yankees general manager Bob Watson, and by Cardinals Hall-of-Famer Stan Musial, hospital officials said. Catalona performed prostate cancer surgery on both men.
A physician diagnosed Torre's cancer early in an annual exam, Catalona said. The problem was found during a checkup at the Yankee's spring training camp in Tampa, Fla., and announced last week.
"You're dealing with a tumor that doesn't let its presence be learned unless you're looking for it," Catalona said.
Healthy season Conine's hope
The Associated Press
HAINES CITY, Fla. — There's a lot less of Jeff Conine this season, and he's hoping that translates into more offensive production.
Conine, expected to be the Royals right fielder, has dropped weight, redefined his muscle and staved injury-free.
He weighed 226 pounds when last season ended. Ori Tuesday, he checked in at 209 pounds. And that him looking forward to the upcoming season.
"I'm going to be healthy, for one," he said.
"That's the main key. If I stay healthy, I'm going to produce. I don't know what that translates into numbers—I'll let you do the math on that."
Bottom line: 93 games, eight homers, 43 RBI and a .256 batting average.
As last year's camp closed, Conine was on the disabled list because of a strained abdominal muscle and he didn't play until May 5. In June, he missed six games because of a strained left wrist. A sore back in late July cost him three weeks.
Especially when there were runs to be chased home. Coninite hit .319 (22 for 69) with 31 RBI with runners in scoring position. With runners on third base, his average was .406 (13 for 32).
"It was a waste, really," Conine said. "I really didn't start the season until May 5. If you can't start a season on time, you're already behind the 8-ball. After the first month, I hit real well in June (292) and July (304), then hurt my back in August. The stretches I did play healthy, I think I hit the ball pretty well."
Just the sight of potential runs pumps Conine up;
"In the 3-4-5 holes, that's what you're expected to do, and you've got to look forward to those situations because that's how you make your living," he said.
During the off-season, the 32-year-old Connie began seeing a nutritionist who had worked with
quarterback Dan Marino and other Miami Dolphins.
"I don't know if it'a a case of getting older or what, but you know those few extra pounds that cree on every once in a while and just accumulate? You try to get them off and they just don't come off like normal."
Manager Tony Muser believes that Conine's physical remake is a huge step for him mentally, too.
“It’s a mind-set.” Muser said. “When you feel good about yourself and work hard, you do better. Unless you’re dripping with talent, physical conditioning is more important than anything.”
Indeed, the results are impressive. Conine's average in the Grapefruit League this spring is .391 (nine for 23) with two doubles and four RBI.
"I feel like I'm moving better, I'm a little more quick on my feet," he said. "If you stick a 15- or 20-pound weight around your waist and run with it all day and take it off, obviously you're going to be lighter and naturally quicker."
"I've always been kind of a stick man anyway."
The Royals will need offense from him this year. With top hitters Dean Palmer (34 homers, 119 RBI) and Jose Offerman (.315, 102 runs) leaving through free-agency, a productive season from Conine is a must.
"He's got his swing down," Johnson said. "It's shorter and more compact. And he's being very selective at the plate. When he does hit the ball, he hits it hard."
Lamar Johnson, the Royals' new batting coach, sees good reason for optimism.
In 1992, the Royals exposed Conine to the expansion draft. He was grabbed by the Florida Marlins and opened the 1993 season in left field. After five years and the 1997 World Series championship with the Marlins, Conine was dealt back to the Royals.
Conine feels at home in the outfield, though if Jeff King is traded or needs a break, Conine can easily return to first base. He's had just 14 errors in 321 games at first. Last year, he had only one outfield error.
Atlanta Brave fights battle with cancer
KISSIMMEE, Fla. — Andres Galarraga didn't have to put on his uniform and swing a bat to inspire the Atlanta Braves.
The Associated Press
The slugger, whom physicians diagnosed with cancer, visited the team's spring training complex Wednesday, and his teammates liked what they saw.
Galarraga was cheerful and confident that he'll beat his illness and return to the club next year.
"I told him to put it this way: It's just like you got hurt," said infielder Ozzie Guillen, like Galarraga a native of Venezuela. "It's like you broke your leg or Kerry Wood being out eight months.
Braves
Just think of it like that. I think Andres will come back pretty soon."
The 37-year
old first baseman began chemotherapy last month and is scheduled to start his second treatment today. The initial session made him nauseous with headaches for several days. But he's not complaining.
"The first three days are probably the most difficult," said Galarraga, who spoke with reporters for about 45 minutes in his first public appearance since doctors found a cancerous tumor in a bone in his lower back on Feb. 18.
"But after awhile, I began to feel better. If that's what's going to make me better, then I can hang with those three days."
The attitude Galarraq brought for his brief visit to spring training was the same one teammates encountered when they made a surprise visit to the slugger's West Palm Beach home on Monday.
"I love baseball so much," Galarraga said. "To be here is special... Just talking to these guys about the game helps a lot, I think it helps them, too."
Fans gave Galarraga a standing ovation before Wednesday's game between the Braves and the Detroit Tigers. Walt Disney World, where Atlanta holds camp, presented him with a 14-by-6 foot get-well card bearing more than 2,500 signatures.
Since news of his illness broke, the first baseman has received thousands of letters and also has heard from Darryl Strawberry, Eric Davis and Brett Butler, who all came back from stints with cancer to play baseball again.
Galarraga will undergo treatment every three weeks for the next few months.
"They say I will have about five or six treatments, but it all depends on my body's reaction to each one," he said. "I have been through the first treatment, but it is too early to see the results."
Guillen said the slugger's illness is a huge story in their native country.
"That's the worst news we've heard in a long time. A lot of people didn't believe what happened," Guillen said. "When you say cancer, people think you're going to die. The country was really in shock and they're still talking about it."
Galarraga, who hit .305 with 44 home runs and 121 RBI in 1989, signed a $24.75 million, three-year contract with the Braves before last season.
"I talk to him like he doesn't have any disease," catcher Javilo Lopez said. "I still don't want to think about him having cancer. I don't want to bring out any more emotion. To me, he looks fine. We feel like he's still with us in our hearts."

A spokesman said the firm's only statement is one issued earlier in the week — that Rodman planned to rejoin the team soon, possibly during the current road trip.
While the Lakers were losing in Sacramento Sunday, Rodman reportedly was in Las Vegas. A public relations firm, Bake Winker Rurier, which began working for Rodman this week had no comment today when asked about his whereabouts by The Associated Press.

The premier rebounder of the '90s, who played on five NBA championship teams in Detroit and Chicago before this year, is being paid about $500,000 for this strike-shorted season. He needed to play in Chicago, New York or Los Angeles to collect $3 million this year on a Converse shoe contract.
Rodman reportedly had an elbow injury which kept him out of the second half of the last game in which he played.

Hutchinson school backs visitors
Nashville college local favorite in juco basketball tournament
The Associated Press
HUTCHINSON — Most of the teams that travel to Hutchinson for this week's junior college basketball tournament are unknown to the locals and don't have a lot of fans in the stands.
Players for tiny Aquinas College in Nashville, Tenn., get a different reception.
Young girls cheer at their practices and games and the players are asked to sign auto-
players are asked to sign autographs and have their pictures taken. It's all a pleasant surprise for a team roughly 800 miles from home.
The Cavaliers have been "adopted" by tiny Trinity High School, continuing a relationship that began in 1991.
"We got into the hotel and they had a sign up for us," said D.J. Harrison, an Aquinas forward. "I was like, 'Who's that? Trinity High School?'
Tney're Catholic, just like
us. Everybody's all being nice to us. It's nice to have that kind of support so far from home."
It all started in 1991, when the Cavaliers arrived in Hutchinson for the National Junior College Athletic Association tournament with no expectations of doing well.
So, of course, the Cavaliers won four straight games to claim the national championship.
But the team hadn't planned on being in Hutchinson all week and had only pocket money and coach Charles Anderson's credit card. And the trip ended up costing $18,000.
A Trinity parent, Annette Raya, read of the team's plight and started a fund-raising drive, which raised just more than $1.000.
by the time the Cavaliers arrived home in Nashville, other news media had picked up the story.
"The next thing you know, we were getting money from all over the country," Anderson said.
Aquinas eventually covered its costs.
Earlier in that year's tournament, two Dominican nuns who were cheering for Aquinas told a Trinity parent that their team could use some cheerleaders. So the Trinity cheerleading squad volunteered to perform at all Aquinas games.
That tradition continues at this year's tournament, with one exception. The Trinity cheerleaders sat out the Cavaliers' opener against Barton County Tuesday because one of Barton's players, Ricky Ogwal, is a Trinity graduate.
Aquinas lost to heavily favored Barton 120-66 and fell into the consolation bracket of the double elimination tournament. The Cavaliers (24-7) will play again at 1:45 p.m. today—with cheerleaders
After the Trinity cheerleaders got involved in the 1991 tournament, so did the rest of the school.
Aquinas returned to the tournament in 1995. The stay was shorter because they finished sixth. But the Trinity students once again provided support
The relationship continues partly because of the size of the schools. Trinity has 226 students in grades seven through 12. Aquinas has about 350 students, grade school through college.
The benefit to Trinity is important.
"The young people here know there is another Catholic institution where they can achieve an education in the same atmosphere," said Sister Marie Bernadette, who teaches a senior religion class at Trinity.
When a recent practice in Trinity's gym ended, some of the students handed coach Anderson cookies baked by the cheerleaders while others swarmed the Cavaliers.
They shook hands, asked for autographs and asked to pose with the players for photographs.
"I feel privileged for them to be able to come to our school," said a 13-year-old Trinity student, Sarah Thibault.
Underdog Oklahoma ready for Michigan St.
The Associated Press
ST. LOUIS— When Kelvin Sampson looks at Oklahoma's game with top-seed Michigan State in the NCAA Midwest Regional, he sees
more than All-American guard Mateen Cleaves and a team that pounds opponents on the backboards.
He also sees Texas and Missouri and Oklahoma State — teams his Sooners beat on the road during the regular season when no one else gave them much of a chance.
Q
sampson always says he looks at challenges as opportunities, and that will be the case again tonight in the regional semifinals.
"The questions are always the same," Sampamson said Thursday. "Last week, it was how are you going to guard Jason Terry? Now, it's how are you going to guard Mateen Cleaves?"
"We don't over respect. When you get this far, you're capable of winning and we've proven that."
That mind set has carried 13th-seed Oklahoma (22-10) this far for the first time since the Sooners' run-and-gun days of 1989.
Oklahoma upset No.4 seed Arizona and beat
fifth-seeded North Carolina-Charlotte last weekend by playing outstanding defense, rebounding well and shooting 3-pointers. The Sooners made 10 three pointers against Arizona. It was against UNC
Michigan State coach Tom Izzo said he was concerned about the long rebounds that result from long-range jumpers.
"That can be an advantage or disadvantage," he said. "If we get them, it can help our fast break. If we're not getting them, then it can create some problems."
The Spartans (31-4) have won 20 straight games, the Big 10 regular-season and tournament titles, and showed their mettle last week by surviving a second-round scare against Mississippi.
Talk about Michigan State always begins with Cleaves, with good reason. He averages 11 points and seven assists per game, and presents problems with his strength.
While Arizona's Jason Terry was quick and smooth, Cleaves "is kind of a sledgehammer point guard," Sampson said.
he dominates his position. He plays physically strong, I watched eight games where I thought he was the main reason they won at the end. He has an infectious enthusiasm about him. I think it's important for a point guard."

Boxing decision under investigation
The Associated Press
THE ASSOCIATION NEWS
NEW YORK—The judge at the center of the controversial Lennox Lewis-Evander Holyfield drew said yesterday that her view of the fight was obscured at times by photographers.
Testifying at a New York state Senate hearing, Eugenia Williams also said that after watching a tape of Stern's heavyweight unification fight, she would have scored it a draw, instead of 115-113 for Hol菲夫.
That scoring would not have changed the ultimate outcome. If Williams had scored the fifth round for Lewis, her card would have been 114-114, and the decision would have been a majority draw.
But after watching a replay, Williams said she would have scored the fifth round for Lewis.
Asked by state Sen. Roy Goodman if she had second thoughts about her opinion, Williams replied: "No sir. I scored what I saw when it saw."
Williams also said that during several rounds, including the fifth, her vision was sometimes blocked by ringside photographers whom she had to push aside.
Williams, a 10-year veteran of judging who works as a $39,200-a-year accounts clerk for Atlantic City, confirmed reports that she had filed for bankruptcy recently, but denied that there had been any attempt by anyone to help her financially in exchange for influencing her judgment.
As the investigation got under way a still furious Lewis returned home to London and demanded that "everything should be looked into."
Separately, Manhattan District Attorney Robert Morgenthau has convened a grand jury to issue subpoenas and gather testimony about Saturday's unification bout. In addition, the New York State Athletic Commission also is investigating.
Of the other judges, South Africa's Christ Stardooulou, scored the fight
116-138 for Lewis and Britain's Larry O'Connell scored it 115-15. Most who watched the fight thought Lewis had clearly won.
In Atlanta, Holyfield was quoted as saying he understood the judges' decision perfectly.
"The judges said it was a draw." Hollyfield told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. "Realistically, he didn't knock me out, and I didn't knock him out. It's all based on a decision."
Holyfield said Lewis didn't do as well as some people said.
"Even with the punch stats, people say, 'Well, this man hit him 600 times,'" he said in an interview published yesterday. "But if he hit me that much, why didn't it fall? How come I was never staggered or hurt? Obviously because a lot of times he was tapping me."

NFL owners revive instant replay
Super Bowl site expansion teams still to be decided
The Associated Press
PHOENIX — If NFL owners were subjected to a play clock the way their teams are in games, they'd draw a whole lot of delay penalties.
While the owners did make one major decision at their winter meetings this week by bringing back instant replay as an officiating aid, their work on other key matters was incomplete.
Although an expansion franchise was granted to Los Angeles, it was only a temporary approval. The two bidding groups from southern California must show they have a viable stadium plan and more community support within six months. Otherwise, the NFL will turn to Houston, which has everything in place to proceed as the 32nd member of the league.
"We want to see L.A. with a team," San Diego Chargers owner Alex Spanos said. "But there has not been the (community) interest
there like there has been in Houston. In Houston, they're ready and they've been coming to us. In L.A., we've done all we can do to encourage them."
Commissioner Paul Tagliabue and Carolina Panthers owner Jerry Richardson, chairman of the stadium committee, made it clear
the stadium site the league hopes to approve before Sept. 15 does not include an ownership group.
"They are separate issues in my mind," Richardson said.
The league
NFL
The league likely will encourage the two groups to merge, and Richardson said he would be "surprised if other people don't surface." For now, the group led by Hollywood agent Michael Ovitz favors a site in Carson, 18 miles south of Los Angeles. The group led by businessmen Eli Broad and Ed Roski wants to renovate the aged LA Coliseum.
renovate the aged LA Concubine Several owners privately expressed a preference for the Coliseum site, and sources within in the league claim a large number of owners were not particularly impressed with Ovitz's style. One
team executive even called Ovitz
"too bossy, too pushy."
All of the owners seem to like McNair, head of the Houston bid. In fact, if Los Angeles meets the six-month deadline, McNair hopes to convince an existing team to move to Houston, which lost the Oilers to Tennessee in 1997. Don't bet against him, particularly with such franchises as the Eagles, Cardinals and Bears still having uncertain stadium situations.
The sale of the Washington Redskins to Howard and Edward Milstein and Dan Snyder was not approved at these meetings. Nor was it voted down.
Instead, the NFL punted and will meet again the week of April 5. By then, the league hopes more cash will be included in the record $800 million bid that was chosen by trustees of the estate of Jack Kent Cooke. Had a vote been taken in Phoenix, Tagliabue said the bid would not have been accepted.
The 2003 Super Bowl was taken away from San Francisco, because the 49ers' new stadium complex plans are in flux. Team owner Ed DeBartolo Jr., who is suspended through January, was finned $1 million for his part in a Louisiana gambling scandal. Tagliabue said that if DeBartolo did not abide by
at all the conditions of the suspension, the fine would escalate to $5 million.
Look for that game to wind up in San Diego, although the Miami area also plans to bid for it. Both Phoenix and Seattle have been mentioned as potential bidders, as well.

Thanksgiving Day games will remain in Detroit and Dallas after the membership overwhelmingly voted to stick with tradition. Kansas City and New Orleans claimed the Lions and Cowboys have a competitive advantage by playing at home on the holiday each year.
As for replay, well, the owners did make up their minds to bring it back for the first time since 1991. But the system — coaches' challenges for the first 28 minutes of each half; an NFL replay assistant calling for reviews in the last two minutes of the half and in overtime; the referee on the field making decisions within 90 seconds after looking at a video replay on a sideline monitor — was passed for just one year.
Police investigate Morris' involvement in accident
ST. PAUL, Minn. — Former American League pitcher Jack Morris called police yesterday after he apparently took his pickup truck from an impound lot without paying.
The truck was towed from a tavern parking lot Wednesday night because police suspected it had been involved in a hit-and-run accident.
the investigation is finished.
Had been involved in a police spokesman Michael Jordan said Morris called police at about 8 a.m. and "provided us with information concerning his whereabouts." The traffic and accident unit of the department is investigating the case. Jordan said further details would be available after
The Associated Press
the investigation is Miskin Before the former Minnesota Twins pitcher showed up at the impound early this morning. Jordan said the attendant received a call from the tavern asking if the pickup was there.
there.
"You know who that belongs to, it belongs to Jack Morris and he's coming to get it," Jordan said the caller told the attendant.
saved the cameratot Morris arrived at the impound lot shortly after that and asked the attendant to open the lot.
"Morris gets a little indignant and wants a police officer to explain why it was there," said Jordan, adding that Morris said his
pickup hadn't been illegally parked
"He was not happy," Jordan said. "He was yelling and there were some obscenities used."
Meanwhile, the attendant was distracted by another vehicle coming in. When he turned around, Morris and his companions were gone and so was the pickup.
"Nobody saw him get in it, but it was gone, and be was gone," Jordan said.
All-Pro Taylor's ex-lawyer, partner convicted of fraud
Morris' pitching career ended after a stint in 1996 with the St. Paul Saints, an independent team. In addition to the Twins, Morris also played for the Detroit Tigers, Toronto Blue Jays and Cleveland Indians.
The Associated Press
CAMDEN, N.J.-The onetime business partner and lawyer for retired All-Pro linebacker Lawrence Taylor was convicted by a federal jury yesterday of embezlement, money laundering, bank fraud and tax evasion charges.
charges.
The verdict against Alfred Porro Jr. came after three days of deliberations. It followed nine weeks of testimony, highlighted by Taylor's appearance on the witness stand last month just three days after he was elected to the pro football Hall of Fame.
As part of a plea bargain that the hopes will help him avoid prison, Taylor, 39, testified for the prosecution. Taylor had被 guilty in June 1997 to tax charges that surfaced during the investigation of Porro, 64, and his wife, Joan, 51, who was also convicted Thursday.
Taylor was not charged with the couple, who are both lawyers from Lyndhurst in Bergen County.
The trial presented proofs of a seamless web of fraud," said U.S. Attorney Faith S. Hochberg, whose office prosecuted the case. "When the frauds were finally catching up with Al and Joan Porro, the evidence proved that they tried to pervert justice by submitting phony and backdated documents."
Some of that money was used to salvage their failing businesses, including the Lawrence Taylor Golf Center in East Rutherford.
The Porros represented themselves and were convicted on all charges, 17 against him and eight against her. Among the charges: stealing $276,000 in client trust funds.
taylor told jurors that his signature was falsified on a bogus financial guarantee that Porro submitted to a bank that lent Porro $850,000 to develop a Meadowlands tract. Under cross-examination by Porro, Taylor said he did not know who forged his name and that it did not appear to be Porro's signature.
Taylor and Porro were partners in a company that built the driving range, but Taylor said he was not involved in the construction or financing.
The Porros had been municipal attorneys for two Bergen County towns, Carlstadt and East Rutherford. They could be barred because of the felony convictions.
Each also faces dozens of years in prison and millions of dollars in fines when sentenced Aug. 13 by U.S. District Judge Joseph H. Rodriguez, although the actual penalties would be far lower under federal sentencing guidelines.
Prosecutors asked that the Porros be held without bail, but Rodriguez decided on house arrest with electronic monitoring pending a bail hearing Monday.
Taylor will probably be sentenced after the Porros.
Considered the dominant defensive player of his time, Taylor played 13 seasons at linebacker with the Giants, leading the team to two Super Bowl titles. He is also known for trouble off the field, including two drug arrests.

Team thrives on competitiveness
Women's soccer taken seriously at KU, coach says
LAUNCHING THE FUTURE OF SPORTS IN EAST AFRICA
By Michael T. Rigg sports@kansan.com Kansan writerspirit
After playing soccer in high school, Katie Mariani received offers to play soccer at several Division II schools. Mariani turned them down and enrolled at the University of Kansas instead.
"I wasn't sure if I wanted to play soccer anymore," the Chicago freshman said.
By last fall, however, Mariani was back in the starting lineup for one of the top soccer clubs in the Midwest.

the game fun for her again, otherwise known as the Kansas women's club soccer team, she said.
The team immediately adopted Mariani and she helped them go all the way to the National Tournament last year in Statesboro, Ga.
"This whole experience has been better than anything I could have ever imagined," Mariani said. "It's so nice to play soccer again and have fun at the same time."
thou wast very heavy.
"The other clubs around here don't take it as seriously as we do," Wiens said.
Newly elected club president Lauren Heyward, Leawood junior, knows about the surrounding competition. She played on the club team at Kansas State before transferring to Kansas her
sophomore year.
The team travels in the fall and spring to play other teams in the Midwest such as Kansas State, Wichita State and Nebraska, but former club president Beth Wiens said the local level of competition wasn't very high.
"We are a lot more organized than K-State," Heyward said. "We have more ability, more numbers, and, overall, we're just much more dedicated as a club than they are."
Heyward also credits coach Dave Harris for the team's success. "K-State didn't have a coach, and that makes a big difference." said Heyward.
The numbers that Heyward speaks of are sometimes a problem for the club. At the beginning of the fall season, upwards of 50 women showed up to play. Even though that number dwindled to about 25 by the time the season
rolled around, many of the players knew that their playing times would have to be sacrificed in order for the team to stay competitive.
"We vote at the beginning of the year on whether we want to have a competitive team or have everyone receive good playing time," Wlens said. "Every year, we vote to be competitive."
Because the women's team does not have a "B"队 like its male club counterparts, the desire to win lands many prospective players a spot on the bench.
"The guys team takes all the B players and they play in the local Lawrence league." Wiens said. "The women do not have that advantage, since Lawrence has no women's league."
Because the Jayhawks are much more competitive than their local counterparts, Kansas usually is able to finish in the top three in the region, which earns it a trip to the national tournament.
Last November in the tournament, Kansas was sent packing after losing three straight.
"Even though we didn't win, it was still a great experience." Heyward said.

U.S. action provokes mixed reactions
By T.J. Johnson
jt Johnson@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
By T.J. Johnson
On the KU campus, as in most parts of the world, the NATO strikes on Serbian targets in Yugoslavia have prompted a wide variety of reactions.
Paul D Anieri, professor of political science and East European studies, said he did not think the strikes had been successful from a political standpoint.
"I think the thing to point out is that the bombing campaign has caused exactly what it was meant to prevent," D'Anieri said.
He said the strikes actually had led to an increase in the violence against ethnic Albanians in Kosovo, which is what the strikes aimed to curb.
Juliet Kaarbo, associate professor of international relations and political science, said she thought the mission of preventing violence against ethnic Albanians was an important one. However, she was not sure that military strikes were the solution to the problem.
problem.
"I think the issue is whether or not you can find a military solution to the oppression of minorities," Kaarbo said. "It's a tough one."
D'Anieri said the NATO strikes were an effort to urge Serbian leader Slobodan Milosevic to sign a peace treaty, but were now an attempt to reduce his military power. He said this was a goal that gave NATO an easier chance to declare victory in the conflict and stop the strikes.
He also said the United States had been trying to fight a war without casualties for either side, something which makes a real victory hard to attain.
by and watching. DKHWers Protesters in many countries have picketed and shot at American Embassies to show their outrage about the NATO strikes, a situation some KU students who traveled abroad during spring break saw first-hand.
"There is a real dilemma between getting involved in a situation that could get pretty ugly and standing by and watching." D'Anieri said.
Seth Wiesblatt, Dallas junior, was in Paris during spring break and stayed near the American Embassy.
"There was a lot of heightened security with barricades and guards every 20 or 30 feet." Wiesblatt said.
Matt Maikens, Castle Rock, Colo., sophomore and Air Force ROTC student, said that the opinions of protesters should be respected, but that whatever the nature of the conflict, troops deserve the respect and support of everyone.
support everyone.
"At times when the world leaders feel a military strike is important, the military needs the support of citizens," he said.
Maikens said people who were protesting the strikes needed to remember those people who were putting themselves in harm's way.
"Remember that guys are putting their lives on the line for freedom and we need to respect that," Maikens said. "Keep all your thoughts and prayers with the pilots who are flying."

Clinton: Air attacks will continue
The Associated Press
BELGRAD, Yugoslavia — Ordering up more firepower, NATO raged against time Sunday to smash Serb military units and head off what it called "genocide" against Kosovo Albanians.
Thousands of ethnic Albanian refugees, accusing Serbs of systematic brutality, fled into neighboring Albania and Macedonia. Officials in both countries pleaded for international help to prevent a humanitarian crisis, and Albania called for NATO ground troops to enter Kosovo — something NATO says it has no plans to do.
Violence in Kosovo has escalated sharply since foreign observers left the province and NATO began its airstrikes against Yugoslavia, which is dominated by Serbs. NATO spokesman Jamie Shea said in Brussels that the airstrikes were no excuse for Serbs to slaughter Kosovo Alians们.
"Genocide is starting," German Defense Minister Rudolf Scharping said in a television interview with station ZDF.
For its part, Yugoslavia's government-controlled news media said Sunday that Serb security forces and civilians were under attack by Kosovo Albanians.
Bratislava Morina, Serbia's commissioner for refugees, denied Serbs were behind the exodus and said ethnic Albanians were leaving because of the NATO attacks. Ethnic Albanians outnumber Serbs in Kosovo, a province in Serbia, Yugoslavia's dominant republic.
"There is no humanitarian catastrophe in Kosovo whatsoever," she said on state-run Serbian television. "Those manipulations with the number of refugees, carried out by foreign agencies and media, are used to intensify (NATO) attacks on Yugoslavia."
NATO promised to broaden attacks on Serb ground forces in Kosovo, despite the downing of a U.S. stealth bomber Saturday night.
The fifth straight night of airstrikes began late Sunday, with about 50 warplanes taking off from the NATO air base in Aviano, Italy. The Pentagon said the attacking planes included six of the F-117A warplanes.
The strikes also would include cruise missiles fired from B-52 bombers, U.S. officials said.

GTA featured as Webmaster of hate Web site
Phelps: Webmaster of Westboro Baptist Church Web site.
By Jennifer Roush
jroush@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Ben Phelps, a 23-year-old KU graduate student in electrical engineering and computer science and a graduate teaching assistant, may look like an ordinary college student.
He has a personal Web page that includes a Frank Zappa quote, graphics of yellow smiley faces and he lists his personal taste in music as everything from Mozart to AC/DC.
But Phelps is not just an ordinary KU student. He's the grandson of one of Kansas' most-recognized personalities
— Fred Phelps, Sr., pastor of the Westboro Baptist Church in Topeka.
Yesterday, he was pictured on the cover of USA Weekend, a national magazine insert that appears in more than 500 Sunday newspapers nationwide. The story profiled Web sites that promote hatred based on race, religion or sexual orientation.
Phelps said that when he was contacted for the story about two months ago, he had no idea that he would be featured so prominently in the magazine. He also said he was not told his
Ben Phelps also is the Webmaster of the church's Web site, www.godhatesfags.com.
photo would be on the cover.
Phelps, who teaches two sections of EECS 128, said he was not worried that the story would affect the students in his classes.
"I think that by now, most students know what kind of a teacher I am, and I won't bring my religious beliefs into the classroom," Phelps said. "People are a lot more tolerant than you think."
He also said a front-page article about the Web site, which appeared in the University Daily Kansan two years ago, did not cause anyone to drop his class.
Phelps said he did not talk about the church's Web site in his classes and
would not link it to his Web page on the University's server.
Jenny Frain, Deerfield, III., senior,
took EECS 128 last semester with
Phelps. She said that she knew who he
was, but that she did not know he
maintained the Web site.
"I definitely would find it very offensive, but I probably wouldn't have dropped the class."
Although the Web site has been down for a few days, Phelps said it had nothing to do with negative publicity or losing access to a commercial server.
The Web site is getting its own server, he said, and should be accessible this morning.
Jerry Niebaum, director of Academic Computing Services, said that from what he knew about the Web site, it would not be a violation of the University's acceptable use policy for Phelps to link the site to his KU Web page.
Tom Hutton, director of University Relations, was disappointed the story featured someone affiliated with the University who was promoting hate.
"I regret that a KU student was cited as the Webmaster of one of these sites, but I recognize that the First Amendment protects his rights to free speech," Hutton said.

Graduate special education program ranked No.1

Kansas staff writer
Education school deans and faculty ranked graduate education schools by reputation, student selectivity, faculty resources and research activity.
The graduate special education program at the University of Kansas is the best in the nation, according to this week's issue of U.S. News & World Report.
The KU School of Education, which includes the special education program, tied with Arizona State University and the University of Washington for No.24 among public and private graduate schools
school and its special education program consistently do well in the magazine's review of colleges.
Karen Gallagher, dean of the School of Education, said several factors made the
Gallagher said the quality of the faculty, the success of students, the amount of grant money the school received and its research productivity all contributed to the high rankings.
"This indicates to those that are considering going to the school that KU has an excellent program," she said. "It says to them that if they go to the school, they can be a leader in whatever they do."
Katie Zook, Arvada, Colo. junior, plans to pursue a master's degree in educational psychology after receiving an undergraduate degree from the School of Education.
In high school, Zook's advisers recommended that she attend their alma mater,
the university of Kansas, when she told them what she wanted to do.
Zook is majoring in elementary education and minoring in special education.
"They kept ranting and raving about the school of education and its special education program." she said.
Zook said the hands-on experience she has had at the University was second to none. She is involved with Natural Ties, a group that works with those with developmental disabilities and also is involved in the School of Education Student Organization, which works with groups such as Big Brothers and Big Sisters.
"A lot of students at other schools are not getting nearly as much hands on work along with graduate credit," she said. "We gain experience starting our freshman
The school's staff played a large role in making the school great, Zook said.
year — nands on work that prepares us and gives us confidence."
"There are definitely people here that have a plethora of experience," she said. "There are ones who have been on the same path that you want to follow."
"There is a real passion about educating students," she said. "I get excited about school every day. In this field, it goes beyond textbooks and tests. It's special because everything I learn is going to affect other people someday."
Zook thought that there was a great amount of enthusiasm among the students and that it also contributed to the prestige of the school.

KU senior earns Churchill Foundation Scholarship
One of 11 Winston Churchill Foundation Scholarships worth $27,000 each was awarded to Larissa Lee, Derby senior.
Lee, who would like to pursue a medical degree and a doctorate in biology, will begin school at Cambridge next year.
"I're really excited." Lee said. "It should be a good year."
Lee is the first KU student to become a Churchill scholar. The foundation was established in 1959 as an expression of the esteem the United States has for Churchill.
Lee is also the president of the KU chapter of the American Institute of Chemical Engineers. Galen Suppes, advisor to AICH_e, was happy for Lee
"She's an outstanding student, and she deserves it by all means," he said.

Kevorkian verdict sparks assisted suicide debate
DETROIT — After nine years as the eccentric crusader for assisted suicide, Jack Kevrian may soon leave that role at a prison's gates — and leave a void in the debate over how people can end their lives.
Assisted suicide advocates said they were dismayed at Kevorkian's conviction Friday on charges of second-degree murder and delivery of a controlled substance in the injection death of a Lou Gehrig's disease patient that was aired on 60 Minutes.
Assisted suicide opponents said they hoped the verdict would send a message that the alternatives to dying are always better.
The jury of seven women and five men debated 1.2/1/2 hours before reaching their verdict. Juror Patrick Pollock said jurors watched the tape Kevorkian made of Thomas Youk's death "a number of times" before coming to their verdict.
Prosecutor Dan Lemisch said jurors told him they spent most of their time deciding between first- and second-degree murder.
First-degree murder requires a specific intent to kill; second-degree murder does not. Kevorkian's main defense was that he did not intend to kill Youk, just ease his pain and suffering.
DALLAS — Six Flags Over Texas officials say ride workers are told not to attempt water rescues and admit there was no rescue equipment present when a boat carrying 12 people overturned.
One killed,10 injured in Six Flags accident
One woman was killed and 10 people injured in Sunday's accident, after which bystanders jumped in the chest-high water to help the victims.
One witness, a certified dive instructor trained in water rescue, said Tuesday that employees apparently made no immediate attempt to enter the water and discouraged her and other patrons from doing so.
"I heard from the staff, the uniformed park staff, 'Ma'am, do not go in the water," said Wendy Crown, 44, who was visiting the park with her 7-year-old son.
Six Flags spokeswoman Nancy St. Pierre said employees of the Roaring Rapids ride, in which large, round boats go through a series of rapids, are told to stay on the dock and activate an in-house emergency response system. Help arrived within two minutes, she said.
Crown said she and others disregarded staff instructions to stay out of the 4-foot-deep water because every minute was crucial.
Crown gave mouth-to-mouth resuscitation to a 28-year-old Arkansas woman who later died.
Ginny Venneberg, Lawrence resident and a passenger on the capsized boat, said Six Flags employees told her that park policy prevented them from jumping into the water to help.
St. Pierre confirmed there were no life preservers, ropes or a pole that could have been used to assist anyone who might fall into the water.
She said a review of procedures has been launched.

severe and damaging earthquake rocks India
NEW DELHI, India — A severe earthquake struck India's Himalayan foothills early Monday, killing 47 people and shaking a broad stretch of northern India, news reports and officials said.
India's seismological department measured the quake at a magnitude of 6.8, which it described as powerful enough to be "severe and damaging." It lasted about 40 seconds.
The epicenter was in a remote area of the Kumaon hills in the state of Uttar Pradesh, about 75 miles east of the city of Dehra Dun and 185 miles from New Delhi.
B. M. Vohra, the commissioner of Dehra Dun district, said 32 people died at Chamoli. Sixty-two houses also were destroyed.
Another 15 people were killed in nearby Rudraprayag, Press Trust of India news agency said.
Vohra said 10 medical teams and two helicopters had left for the area to aid earthquake victims.
The death toll was likely to rise as reports came in from remote villages.

KU senior wins Truman award to continue study

Melinda Carden, Lenexa third-year senior in social welfare, won a Harry S. Truman Scholarship worth $30,000 for three years.
Carden plans to use the money to earn a master's degree in gerontology and social and economic development at Washington University in St. Louis.
Mary Klayden, associate director of the KU Honors Program, said she was not surprised Carden had won. "I remember meeting her when she was a freshman and I was impressed with her then," she said.
The Truman Scholarship Foundation will award 75 scholarships this year. Several still remain to be awarded, but no KU students remain in the competition. Carden's scholarship was announced last Wednesday.
Carden said that she was surprised she won the award and that even becoming a finalist was difficult.
She said she had not thought she would do well because of the level of talent in the region in which she was competing and because of what she thought was a poor interview with the judges.
Each candidate for a Truman Scholarship had to write about a social problem and propose a solution to it. Carden wrote about the need to reform the way in which Kansas cares for the elderly.
institutionalization of the those 65 and up, she said. Instead of putting senior citizens in a nursing home, Carden said the state should try to serve the elderly through home and community-based services.
Carden said she had been interested in helping the elderly for a while.
"I started working in a retirement home when I just turned 16, and I got very attached to some of the residents." she said.
dents, she said. Carden said some of the residents she had met wanted to go home, and probably could have lived on their own with relative ease.
She said she had sent her proposal to Gov. Bill Graves but said Graves seemed to be concentrating on the young rather than on the elderly during this term.

KU student faces arson charges
By Katie Burford
kburford@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Aaron Hale Culwell, St. Francis freshman, was charged with arson at his first court appearance March 19 in connection with a wasstika that was burned into the third-floor hallway carpet of Oliver Hall March 18, according to Douglas County District Court records.
He was released on $5,000 bond on the condition that he would not return to Oliver Hall and would not have any contact with witnesses in the case, said Marlon Williams, a lawyer in the Office of the Douglas County District Attorney.
Culwell's preliminary hearing was set for at
Williams said the charge of arson was a Level 7 non-person felony, which carried a sentence of 11 to 34 months in prison if the convicted individual had no previous record.
1:45 p.m. April 1 at the Division 5 Courtroom in the Law Enforcement Center, 111 E. 11th St.
He said he was not sure why the charge was not aggravated arson, which would apply if people were placed in danger by the arson. But he said the arson charge could be amended up if evidence was revealed during the trial that supported it.
He said that the state had issued 10 subpoenaes in the case and that he foresaw three or four of them being called to testify at the preliminary hearing.
An anonymous tip led police to arrest Culwell in connection with the March 18 vandalism, said Lt.
Schuyler Bailey of the KU Public Safety Office.
Police said Culwell had not been connected to a Feb. 28 vandalism, in which an Asian-American student found a swastika burned on the door of his fifth-floor Oliver room. Two other doors were vandalized the same night, but the markings on the doors were illegible.
Fred McElhenie, associate director of Student Housing, said a floor meeting would be held this week in the residence hall to discuss the ramifications of the incident and to emphasize the importance of sensitivity in communal living.
"Even if it was just a prank, the outcome and the consequences for this young man are serious," McElenie said.

Former professor of journalism dies
By Jamie Knodel
jknode@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Although he retired 10 years ago, a former KU journalism professor who died Saturday is still held in the highest regard by colleagues.
Mel Adams, 80, was an associate professor in the School of Journalism for nearly 30 years. He taught advertising courses that students referred to as "The Melements of Advertising," said Tim Bengston, associate professor of journalism.
Adams helped advertising students find internships and work opportunities during intersessions.
"He made it possible for hundreds of students to get internships," said Calder Pickett, retired distinguished professor of journalism. Adams also was dedicated to his former students in the work force.
"His NO. 1 interest was his former students and how they were doing," Bengston said.
Adams graduated from high school in Augusta and worked summers for the local newspaper.
He received his undergraduate degree in journalism from the University of Kansas.
After graduating from the University, Adams served in the U.S. Navy during World War II.
After the war, Adams worked for the Kansas City Star and was then the publisher of the Morristown Sun, in Tennessee.
Adams went back to school and received a master's degree in journalism from the University of Iowa before he began work as an associate professor at the University of Kansas.
Memorial services will be held at 11:00 Tuesday morning at Warren-McElwain Mortuary, 120 W. 13th St. A private internment will be held at Pioneer Cemetery on the University campus.
Adams is survived by his wife Verna, daughter Linda Liles, Nederland, Colo.; son, Mark Adams, Oklahoma City; sister, Velma Taylor, Lawrence; and one grandson.
The family suggests that memorial contributions be made to the Mel Adams Award fund at the KU School of Journalism or sent in care of the mortuary.

First African American on Board of Regents dies leaves legacy of service
By Jamie Knodel
jknodel@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Civil rights advocate and the first African-American member of the Kansas Board of Regents was remembered for his contributions to higher education in Kansas and the legal world
"Anyone who knew him, for any length of time, will remember him," said Mike Hoeflich, dean of the School of Law. "He had charisma.
Elmer Jackson Jr. died Friday in Kansas City, Kan., at age 86.
Jackson was appointed to the Kansas Board of Regents in 1970. He spent eight years on the Board and served as the chairman in 1975.
Jackson earned his degree from the University in 1933 and graduated from the School of Law in 1935.
Members of the University community said Jackson took an interest in the University's future.
"He was one of the most loyal and successful alumni," Hoelfich said.
"Anything an alum could do, he did."
In 1973, the School of Law named him as the KU Law alumnus of the year. He also received the Distinguished Service Citation, which is the University's highest honor
given by the University and the KU Alumni Association.
An annual scholarship, named after Jackson, was first awarded in 1991 to aid the University's African-American law students.
Jackson participated in the advancement of African-American lawyers. He served as president for the National Bar Association, an organization founded in 1925 by African-American lawyers, who at that time were not allowed to join the American Bar Association.
As president, he campaigned for African Americans to be named federal judges. During the 1960 presidential campaign, Jackson got written confirmation from both candidates that if elected they would appoint an African-American federal judge.
After serving executive positions with the National Bar Association, Jackson ran the association from his Kansas City, Kan., law office. He practiced law in the area for 64 years.
Jackson is survived by his wife, Lucile; a son, Elmer C. Jackson III of Troy, Mich.; a sister, Hester Murchison-Bowman of San Diego; and grandchildren.

Standardized test ruling indicates warning for admissions, scholars
When a federal judge ruled March 8 that NCAA eligibility rules require a minimum SAT or ACT score for student athletes were racially discriminatory, he did more than throw the NCAA into chaos.
The ruling carries with it potential implications that could affect not just athletes, but every student and educator at the University of Kansas.
If upheld on appeal, the ruling opens the door for an assault on any admissions or scholarship requirements that use standardized testing, which the vast majority of schools, including the University, use.
If it is upheld that standardized testing discriminates against minorities in cases of athletic eligibility requirements, it follows that the tests also
Ruling of SAT, ACT discrimination could affect more than student athlete eligibility.
would be discriminatory when used for admissions.
Minority students could therefore sue and possibly win against colleges and universities, alleging discrimination in admissions.
Alan Cerveny, director of the Office of Admissions and Scholarships, said the University was less at risk than many other schools because it didn't establish test score cut-off lines similar to the ones the NCAA used. Instead, the University weighs test
scores as one of many factors in admissions, he said.
The lack of a definite cutoff may make the University's admissions policy as legal even if admissions cutoffs were ruled unfair, Cerveny said.
Still, the issue should not be taken lightly because all use of standardized testing potentially could be affected. Some scholarships have test-score cutoffs that clearly would be vulnerable to future legal challenges.
Admissions departments and scholarship agencies should heed the decision and make preparations in case they, too, are stripped of the ability to use scores from standardized tests.
We cannot let the chaos ravaging the world of student athletes catch the rest of the nation's students by surprise.

Course retake policy being revisited
During a college career, a student may wish to retake a class. There are several reasons for this: to apply for entrance to a major or professional school, to graduate, to receive departmental honors or to improve a grade.
Now, when students choose to retake a class because of an unsatisfactory grade. both the original grade and the new grade appear on students' transcripts Both are averaged into the cumulative GPA.
This practice essentially is the same as students taking a different course and having that new grade appear.
There should be another option.
A group of students are working on a proposal for the Academic Policies and Procedures committee in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences that would change the course retake policy.
Proposal could allow students more competition in majors graduate programs.
The policy would allow students a one-time option to retake a course and have only the new grade appear on transcripts. Doing this would have many advantages for the student and the University.
When students compete for graduate programs against students from universities that have a retake policy, the other student's grades may seem higher. This is a disadvantage to KU students. Grade replacement would make KU graduates more competitive for graduate programs.
for a replacement grade, students are being deterred from taking classes that may interest them. Students shouldn't be reprimanded for taking classes in which they do not do as well as classes in their major.
major.
The grade replacement policy does have some drawbacks. A student would not be allowed to replace his or her grade again and again. It would be a one-time replacement. Also, the student would not receive credit for retaking the class. He or she just would benefit from the new grade. It would be the new grade that would appear on the student's transcript, regardless if it were better or worse.
The theory behind the liberal arts education is for students to experience several types of classes. By not being eligible
Even taking these drawbacks into consideration, many students could use this policy. Getting into the major you want, graduating or graduating with honors are just temptation.

Flu medication provides engaging outlook of life

Even more reliable than the mid-first semester, get-broken-up with by-high school sweetheart because-of that long-distance-thing season, the sickness season seems to strike nearly all at some point.

Factors such as being a smoker or bathing regularly play important roles in the
enances of getting sick, but if you examine these, you'll see that most of them contribute to a depleted immune system and, therefore, contribute to that part of the problem.
part of the problem.
But the most telling harms that can be done to the immune system of a college student happen during the first half of any semester. During the first half, most students find themselves with extra money. Whether the source is parents, scholarships, loans, or money gained from students in exchange for a sack of weed, it all contributes to a false feeling of well being.
willing.
Having a surplus of money leads to spend it on things such as weekend-long parties. This leads to students missing class to make up sleep, which they eventually will trade back to catch up in those classes. This causes already sleep-deprived students to stress out, unwind with a few beers after failing that test because of lack of preparation and miss even more sleep.
Kansas weather patterns. Sunshine, rain, cold, heat and snow dance through the days of weeks in random order, creating a perfect breeding ground for ornery strains of flus and colds, which in turn dance through the dazed and weak on campus. Immune systems are shot, and viruses are here.
After a half semester of this vicious circle, the body is wondering what the brain is doing to it. There's no time to recover, though, because here comes midterm time, which happens to fall — this year — in the middle of a season of alternating Kansas weather patterns.
"But it won't happen to me," some say
That's what I said, too.
I was wrong.
It happened on a Monday morning. When I reached up to hit snoop, I felt like someone had sandpapered my throat and inflated a balloon in
my head, which they were trying to pop by shoving a golf tee up each one of my nostrils.
I had to go to class, and I was so sick I didn't know if I could. But I wasn't sure whether I should mix the potion with the pills, and I wasn't sure whether the potion would make me pass out in class.
I had to go to the kitchen. Looking through the pile of medicine on my dresser, I found a half-empty box of Sudafed and a partial bottle of NyQuil. The top of the bottle was crusty, but that's not what made me consider not drinking it.
no way to get around it, I was sick.
"Why not? It could be interesting." I said to myself. That no idea.
And Thad to go to class.
Sitting there waiting for my 11:30 class, I observed the sea of yellow pullovers, wondering whether it was some high school popularity contest or whether everyone had just decided they liked the pullovers coincidentally at the same time.
neyed in the world. I'm the one.
By 10:30, the magic drugs were doing what they were supposed to. I was feeling good. Free of symptoms and completely messed up. I sat on Wescoe Beach for an hour and watched the world go by. And looking at life from an altered perception of reality is not that bad an experience.
The world can be interesting when viewed through NyQuil goggles. I couldn't stop laughing when my friend Al began a learned statement about the similarities of Hobbes', Locke's and Rousseau's states of nature.
I watched some women walk by with nips up turned — not caring to view the surroundings they thought they were too good for — followed closely by guys with nips turned down so they could better check out the stuck-up girls' posters.
Classes went fine that day, and though my head was in the clouds. I think I learned more than usual.
After showering, I swallowed two Sudafed, chasing them with two large gulps of NyQuil, and journeved into the world. The time was 10 a.m.
"But, dude, the intrinsic brutishness of Hobbes' natural man could only be called flawed if Locke's state of state of war is taken with a grain of salt. And Rousseau was sure..."
Where else but college can a fellow sophisticate begin an academic argument with, "But, but," and have confidence anyone would listen to the rest? College is beautiful.

The rest of my week was spent in the same state, and I got more accomplished than I had in the previous three.

But that's not what the forum was about, and I'd like to present a few of the ideas to you as they relate to student life.
PENN BURGER
Speakers at the forum said that Jesus Christ was one of the only religious leaders who still, thousands of years after his crucifixion, has followers who are willing to die for him. His words, such as the Sermon on the Mount and the Lord's Prayer still are remembered and memorized by people around the world.
As a graduating senior — as hopefully some of you are or will be soon — I find myself thinking, "What have I done here, or in my life thus far, that has made an impact?" I decided that I still have a lot to do at the university of Kansas.
On the subject of moving fast. Sen. Sam Brownback (R-Kan.) and State Rep. Susan Wagle had some insightful hints to share at the forum about motivation and moving forward. I spent a few moments with Brownback after his address.
He reminded me to live for now, with one eye on the future.
When I asked Brownback how he had been so successful in achieving his career goals, he explained that the more he trusted God, the more God trusted him. The less he trusted God, the less God trusted him.
It could have been a political line to tell me what I wanted to hear, but I'll choose to believe Brownback and think to myself how fortunate it is to have leaders like him.
Wagle seconded his idea, adding that you need to have faith in and argue for what you believe in. And you have to do something about it now. Be ready to be trusted, and make a difference.
tonging it as soon you call.
Ogilvy shared a story about a legislative clerk who was killed in an auto accident. When Ogilvy met with the clerk's widow, she urged him to go home right away and hug his wife and children, telling them how important they were. Family is an often forgotten priority.
Lloyd Ogilvy, chapain for the U.S. Senate, spoke at the Kansas State Prayer Breakfast about defining what was important and then doing it as soon as you could.
Figure out what you value and believe in it. Stand for it. Stay motivated in these last couple of months.
I hope someone will try to follow some of these great examples. Take a look at the truly great leaders and make a difference before you leave the University.
I know that I am not the only person at the University deciding where to go, what to do, what to study and how to make a difference. That's a priority right there — how to leave a mark.

Students not victims of academic cruelty
I would agree with Clay McCuistion that in some classes at the University of Kansas the relationships between professors and students is not entirely amiable. However, McCuistion speaks in his March 15 column as if the students are entirely innocent victims of academic
oppression. Do they have any responsibilities at all?
Collaborative learning entails cooperation and motivation on the parts of teachers and students. Many teachers do not spring tests or quizzes unless this ideal cooperative atmosphere has disintegrated
Perhaps if there were more students who learned for the
—a disintegration often due to student apathy, late-night parties, and student hostility, not only to militaristic teachers.

I was recently a student. I am now both a teacher and a student. I know both sides of the coin. This young man simply cannot fork all the blame onto professors. Sometimes, teachers just do what they can.

KU employee arrested on embezzlement charges
By Katie Burford
kourford@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
The investigation into unauthorized purchases and altered payroll documents in the Office of Minority Affairs in 145 Strong Hall resulted in the arrest of an office employee Wednesday, a Lawrence Police report said.
The employee, who worked as a secretary in the Office of Minority Affairs, was taken into custody at 8 p.m. Wednesday and released on $7,500 bond the same night.
According to records in the office of the Douglas County District
Attorney, the employee will make her first court appearance at 3 p.m. April 2 to face four counts of theft greater than $500 but less than $25,000 and two counts of criminal use of a financial card greater than $500.
The embezzlement was reported Feb. 5 by Sherwood Thompson, director of the office of Minority Affairs. It was reported to have occurred between March 1, 1989 and Nov. 28, 1989, said Lt. Schuyler Bailey of the KU Public Safety Office.
The Office of Minority Affairs deferred comment to Tom Hutton, director of University Relations.
Hutton said the employee was on leave without pay and that her employment status with the University would depend on what the court determines in the case.
Phil Rankin, assistant director of Human Resources, said the employee had been on leave since the investigation began.
Edited by Julie Sachs
Investigation of the case was conducted by the KU Public Safety Office, University auditors and the Comptroller's Office. Before sending the final report to the District Attorney's Office, Bailey said that they had identified the employee as a primary suspect and that she was cooperating with authorities.
Trial to begin in Wyoming
Matthew Shepard's accused killer could receive death penalty
By Heather Woodward
hwoodward@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Opening statements in the trial of 21-year-old Russell Henderson, who is accused of beating and killing a gay college student, tentatively have been scheduled for next Tuesday.
Henderson faces first-degree murder charges in the death of Matthew Shepard, 21, who police say was lured from a Laramie, Wyo., bar, before he was pistol-whipped and left on a fence to die last October.
Henderson's attorney announced last week that the defense would claim Henderson watched while co-defendant Aaron McKinney, who also faces first-degree murder charges, beat Shepard. McKinney's trial tentatively has been scheduled for August.
Donald Rowland, graduate liaison for Lesbian, Bisexual, Gay and Transgender Concerns, said that the line of defense did not make Henderson any less guilty.
"When you are a witness to a heinous crime and you do not go
to the police, then you are guilty of that crime," Rowland said. "If you did nothing to prevent the crime, then I believe you are just as guilty."
Jury selection in Henderson's trial began March 22 with a quarter of the 71 potential jurors in the first pool dismissed by Thursday
Rowland said he thought the defendants would receive a fair trial in Laramie.
"I have been a member on a jury before, and I think most jurors follow court orders," Rowland said. "If they are guilty, and it appears that they are, I think they should be punished to the full extent of the law, whatever that may be. It is not a decision I want to make."
Both Henderson and McKinney face the death penalty if convicted. McKinney's trial tentatively has been scheduled for August.
Brian Jones, Lawrence senior,
said he did not think the defenders
should receive the death
penalty if convicted.
"In general, I don't believe in the death penalty," Jones said. "I do not think it is any further of a determent than life in prison."
Lisa Braun, co-president of Politically-Active Queers and student senator for Queers & Allies, said she thought a guilty verdict would send a positive message to the gay and lesbian community. Braun also said she did not believe in the

"It would send a message that we're not going to put up with acts like these — that yes he may be different, but you still can't mess with him," Braun said. "The trial is definitely something that all of us in the activist core hope will promote us or put us down. It is a semi-turning point."
death penalty
"It just takes two people brought up to hate us." Braun said. "And Lawrence has those people. My personal experience has just been with name-calling, nothing physical, but I know people who have experienced more."
Braun said she thought crimes against homosexuals could happen in Lawrence.

Local prices rise 20 cents in March
Spring breakers feel gas-price hike
By Nadia Mustafa
nmustafa@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
After several months of record-setting low prices, the cost of gasoline across the nation is on the upswing.
Many students who took road trips during spring break were frustrated when they saw higher prices at the gas pumps.
Ted Kritikos, Lyndon freshman,
said he was disappointed with the
12-cent increase when he drove
home last week.
"It was kind of a downer because they were really really low, but now they're back up again," he said.
gas prices have been increasing for several weeks in anticipation
of the Oil Producing and Exporting Countries' cuts in crude oil production. OPEC nations voted last Tuesday to decrease production by 2.1 million barrels a year for a year.
In Lawrence, unleaded gas prices at many filling stations hovered at around 89 cents per gallon last weekend. Although this marked a substantial increase from the rate of about 75 cents earlier this month, it was still about 10 cents below the national average last March.
Nathan Gronberg, Overland Park sophomore, is a clerk at Texaco Self Service, 1415 W. Sixth St. He said business at the gas station was slower.
"People are still going to drive," Gronberg said. "But I liked it better when it was 79 cents."
In large part, OPEC member nations supported the decision because they have been plagued with budget deficits and other economic woes accompanying the
The price for gas in Lawrence has gone up dramatically in the past few weeks, but it remains below the national average.

lowest gas prices in more than a decade.
If they maintain their commitments, the world market's oil supply would drop by about 2.6 percent. The reductions could increase the cost of driving, flying and shipping products in the United States.
David Faurot, associate professor of economics, said gas prices were still at historically low levels. He
said he could not predict how long the increases would continue or how much prices would rise.
"OPEC has tried in the past over and over again to cut production to increase prices," Faurot said. "But it has failed time after time. In all likelihood, it won't be successful in the future."

Oil-for-food policy for Iraq condemned
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — More than 100 independent oil and natural gas producers have fanned out across Washington this week, clamoring for federal help for an industry battered by low crude oil prices stemming from a worldwide glut.
Beyond seeking tax relief and other legislative help, the marginal producers and their allies on Capitol Hill are calling on the Clinton administration to change its policies towards Iraq. Under a United Nations policy supported by the United States, Iraq is allowed to sell up to $10.4 billion of oil yearly, with proceeds to be used to purchase food and medicine for the Iraqi people.
"Our rights are being violated by politicians taking care of the Mid-
"There is no good reason why we are bombing Iraq one day, and buying everincreasing amounts of their oil the next."
But domestic producers - who have seen their industry shrink by 50,000 jobs in the last year and watched marginal production drop by 8 percent — contend the oil-forfood program is serving mainly to aid Saddam Hussein while harming U.S. interests.
Rep. Lamar Smith
R-Texas
die EAST," said Ruben Ramirez, a 34-year oil industry veteran from Kermit, Texas, who has been laid off amid the industry's current woes.
Under the oil-for-food program, Iraq can use $600 million a year to rebuild its oil infrastructure and drill new wells, adding to the current oversupply and potentially handing Iraq a tool to destabilize oil markets, producers said at a Capitol news conference Thursday.
"We do not want to argue against ... some kind of relief for the Iraqi people," said New Mexico producer George Yates, chairman of the Independent Petroleum Association of America. "But what we're saying is that the oil-for-food program is skewed. It is government at work, it is not the market at work."
Appearing before Senate committees Wednesday, Energy Secretary Bill Richardson said Iraq's 2.5 million barrel a-day production has negligible impact on U.S. oil prices.
That view was dismissed by the chairman of the Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee, Sen. Frank Murkowski of Alaska, who noted that when OPEC proposed a similar production cut recently, crude prices jumped $2 a barrel
"We've got to recognize that old reality that charity begins at home," Murkowski said at Thursday's news conference, organized by IPAA. "We've got to support our domestic petroleum industry."
Republican lawmakers denounced U.S. policy towards Iraq as "chaotic."
"There is no good reason why we are bombing Iraq one day, and buying ever-increasing amounts of their oil the next," said Rep. Lamar Smith, RTexas.
IPAA, which represents thousands of marginal producers, is backing legislation that would provide tax credits for marginal production and to return inactive wells to production. The trade group also is urging the administration to pay more attention to independent producers and the energy security they represent for the country.
Marginal producers account for 20 percent of domestic production — a substantial share for a nation that depends on foreign oil for more than half of its energy needs, the independents note.
"The message has to be that the administration will not let this industry collapse," Yates said.
IPAA members met Tuesday at the White House with Vice President Al Gore, Treasury Secretary Robert Rubin, Richardson and other top administration officials. "No promises, much discussion." Yates said, when asked to summarize the meeting.

Conflict in Kosovo
Milosevic rejects NATO peace plan
Continued from page 1A
"We have to recognize that we are now on the brink of a major humanitarian disaster ... the likes of which we have not seen in Europe since the closing days of World War II," said NATO spokesman Jamie Shea.
Shea said more than 500,000 ethnic Albanians, a quarter of the population of Kosovo, had been driven from their homes, 50,000 of them in just the past few days.
British Defense Secretary
George Robertson said four additional Harrier jets would join eight already involved in the NATO mission. He also said Britain would prepare eight Tornado GR1 bombers for action.
In NATO's first confirmed combat loss of the campaign, a U.S. F-117A stealth fighter jet went down Saturday night about 30 miles northwest of Belgrade. A combat rescue team retrieved the pilot and brought him to safety. The pilot, whose name has not
"We are going to move into a wider array of targets including not only those dealing with command-and-control structures, ammunition dumps, but also start to go after the forces in the field as such," U.S. Defense Secretary William Cohen said on NBC's Meet the Press.
That is not enough for some leaders close to the battle front. Albanian President Rexhep Meidani said NATO ground troops must deploy in Kosovo to stop the carnage, a scenario rejected so far by Western leaders.
been released, was in good shape and brought to the NATO base at Aviano, officials said.
The NATO raids are intended to force Yugoslav president Slobodan Milosevic to agree to a peace deal that calls for NATO troops to be based in Kosovo to enforce the accord. The deal has already been accepted by the province's ethnic Albanian majority.
But Milosevic, through an official government statement issued Saturday, again rejected the plan.
Bombings denounced worldwide
Protesters attack U.S. sites in Russia, Australia, France
The Associated Press
MOSCOW — Gunmen with rocket launchers and an assault rifle opened fire Sunday on the U.S. Embassy in Moscow, the site of three days of protests against NATO airstrikes on Yugoslavia.
Police firing pistols drove the attackers away from the embassy, which was hit by several bullets but suffered minimal damage. No one was injured.
Russia fiercely opposes the NATO bombings, and rallies have been held at the U.S. Embassy since Thursday.
News agencies in Russia cited police sources as saying three people had been arrested in the attack, but police officials would not confirm any arrests.
A white jeep pulled up in front of the embassy
and two of the occupants aimed rocket launchers at the building.
at the building.
One gunman in a ski mask and camouflage fatigues, who had climbed out of the jeep to aim a launcher, jumped back in the vehicle when police opened fire. One attacker then opened fire from inside the jeep with a semi-automatic rifle, sending police and bystanders diving for cover.
The government condemned Sunday's attack. President Boris Yeltsin's spokesman Dmitry Yakushkin said the shooting "throws a shadow on Russia, which is now making titanic efforts to mediate the crisis in Yugoslavia."

Scores of police and troops with automatic weapons ringed the embassy after the attack. A few hundred protesters also remained.

In other demonstrations process today — In Sydney, Australia, about 7,000 protesters attacked the U.S. Consulate. Some hurried broken pieces of concrete through windows of a shop and restaurant in the building where the U.S. dinlo-
matic area is, and many compared President Clinton to Adolf Hitler.
One protester scaled two floors of the building and ripped down a U.S. flag, which was later burned by youths standing atop a bus shelter. Demonstrations also occurred in Melbourne and Canberra.
in Salzburg, Austria, about 3,500 people carried banners denouncing the NATO airstrikes, waved Yugoslav flags and declared their support for Yugoslav President Slobodan Milosevic, the Austria Press Agency reported.
Press Agency report
■ French riot police used tear gas to disperse about 300 Serb supporters who threw rocks and toppled security barriers in a demonstration in front of the U.S. Embassy in Paris.
In Albania, however, 10,000 people gathered in support of the NATO airstrikes. They marched to the Yugoslav embassy, some holding signs that read "Gratitude to America," and "Kosovo will win."

Pro-government papers equated the crash with overwhelming success. The daily Expres wrote of stealth fighters falling "like overripe pears."

Planting the roots
The success of Kansas' current women politicians stems from a rich history of revolutionary foremothers
From left to right: Barbara Ballard, state representative, D-Lawrence, Joan Finney, former Kansas governor, and Carla Stavall, Kansas attorney general are represented in a caricature.
story by katrina hull illustration by josh peterson
W when early women settlers helped their husbands plow the windy
bands plow the windy Kansas prairies, they were also putting down the roots of a political culture.
Now, a century later, their granddaughters and great granddaughters are harvesting political success, Kansas women politicians say.
Kansas ranks fifth in the nation in the number of women legislators at 30 percent female, according to the Center for the American Women and Politics.
The statistic did not surprise State Rep. Barbara Ballard, D-Lawrence. She said Kansas women have demonstrated daring spirit and have made remarkable contributions to the state.
"Kansas has an extremely rich history," Ballard said. "Women have always been involved in the state and in partnership roles that are equality oriented."
Diana Carlin, associate professor of communications, said there was definitely a pioneering spirit in Kansas women that affected the state's political culture.
Women played a large role in settling western states. Those settlers began a tradition of women leadership roles, said Carlin, who teaches courses in gender and political communications.
In 1887, Kansas was the first state to give women the right to vote in city elections. That same year, Argonia was the first city in the country to elect a woman mayor, and Syracuse, Kan. was the first city in the United States to elect an all-woman city council.
Carlin said the reason for increased women's political involvement in Kansas, particularly in suffrage, was a political strategy. Eastern suffragists realized it was easier to get suffrage into new state constitutions than to change old ones, she said.
National suffragists, such as Susan B. Anthony, advocated women's voting rights in Kansas to further women's political involvement.
Carlin said social forces kept
"There is a greater expectation if you're a woman than if you're a man. Sometimes from other people, but a lot of times from yourself, because you don't want to let other women down."
Barbara Ballard
State Represenative, D-Lawrence
the number of women serving in a political capacity low until after the 1970s. In the last two decades, acceptance for women working outside the home has grown.
"When women did get involved, Kansas moved quickly to elect women to high positions, and that goes back to the roots." Carlin said.
Joan Finney, Kansas' first woman governor, said that she was grateful to her maternal ancestors. Her grandmother was a suffragist and her mother was a businesswoman.
"I always believed strongly that women should have much more of a role than they have had," Finney said.
Finney said women's achievements in economic areas of society furthered the 1970 women's movement and opened the door for her political career.
After working 16 years for Rep Frank Carlson in the U.S. House, Finney thought she was finished with politics. She had three children at home.
"Republican leaders sent word for me to step aside for a man to run — and that was the wrong thing to say to me," Finney said.
In the early 70s, however, her name came up for a seat in the Kansas House, and Finney said she had to take the challenge.
Although she lost in the primary, Finney said there was still a challenge for her to change the male-attorney politician image.
At this time, Finney changed to the Democratic party because she said it was more supportive of women.
Finney described herself as a people's politician and not a party politician.
In 1974, she was elected as State Treasurer on the Democratic
ticket, a position she held for 16 years and four elections before winning the gubernatorial election in 1990.
Finney said she did not run for re-election in 1994 because she wanted to leave behind a good record for young women who would aspire to political offices in the future.
Ballard also said that for women politicians there was a responsibility and extra incentive to do a good job.
Carlin said this was more of an issue 10 years ago when it was less common for women to run for political offices. Now that Kansas has elected many women to the state legislature, it is not a gender issue.
"There is a greater expectation if you're a woman than if you're a man," Ballard said. "Sometimes from other people, but a lot of times from yourself, because you don't want to let other women down."
Women often don't have as many connections to financial resources. Carlin said that as more women work in professional careers, they would broaden their financial base and would be able to provide more money to women's campaign funds.
The only gender barrier that still exists is access to finances when campaigning, Carlin said.
"It's harder for women to raise money and harder for women to ask for money," Carlin said. "They make up for that by working harder."
Carla Stovall, Kansas attorney general, recently told University of Kansas College Republicans how she felt responsible to young men and women.
More women may be getting elected, but that doesn't mean they aren't being placed under the same public scrutiny.
After a 1997 editorial in The Hutchinson News that called her a "sexpot." Stovall said she requested an apology not for herself, but to send the message that it was not appropriate to be treated that way.
Stovall, the first Kansas woman to hold the attorney general position, said that other than that one incident, she has not
experienced gender bias. She said her gender did not make it tough for her to get elected.
"My views were such it was easier to overlook being female because I was strong on law and order kind of issues," Stovall said.
Ballard and Finney also said any gender bias that they had experienced was minimal.
Finney said that two things have helped diminish gender bias: women who have succeeded and men who have daughters. She said that men have realized that women were going to be involved in politics and have chosen to support them.
Carlin described women's progress in politics as evolutionary. In the past 10 years people have seen women's names as viable candidates, especially in Kansas.
Many women have contributed to Kansas politics and continued the progressive tradition of the state. Ballard said.
"Kansas has a leg up on other states because we have a history of women being involved," she said. "There is an advantage being from Kansas."
Nationally, the next step for women politicians is the election of the first female president.
With Elizabeth Dole in the 2002 presidential race, it is possible that the nation's first first man will be a Kansan.
Carlin said that she predicted that by 2012 there will be a woman president or at least a woman vice president.
Since 1992, there have been nine women in the Senate. The increased number of women in high political offices puts women in the position to run for president, she said.
Second, the current presidency and its scandals have made people question the job of the president.
"The situation with Clinton has made people think a woman would do a different kind of job," Carlin said.

'Hawks, Irish to duel on gridiron
Game guarantees money attention for Jayhawks
By Michael T. Rigg sports@kansan.com Kansan sportswriter
After weeks of rumors, Kansas and Notre Dame officially announced last Thursday that the two teams will face each other Aug. 28 in the Eddie Robinson Classic in South Bend, Ind.
The game will be broadcast live on NBC and guarantees Kansas at least $600,000 for participating in the matchup.
"Playing Notre Dame in the Eddie Robinson Football Classic will allow us an opportunity to showcase our football team early in the season on national television," head coach Terry Allen said.
While the money for the game comes easily, victory may not. The Fighting Irish return 11 starters from a team that finished
the jayhawks. Kansas' lone win came in the first meeting between the schools in 1904, which predates Memorial Stadium, the Campanile, and Kansas' fight song.
Even though his Jay-hawks will be in the underdogs in the matchup, Allen is looking forward to the challenge of playing a team that many experts have penciled in as a preseason top 25 team.
A. R.
"We feel it will provide an exciting challenge for our players and give us extra motivation for the 1999 season," Allen said. "In addition, it will provide us with an extra
Allen: Team will play first preseason game since 1993.
week of practice time during the preseason."
The Aug. 28 game day means Kansas can begin practice on Aug. 6 instead of the previously scheduled Aug. 13.
Adding the game against Notre Dame gives the Jayhawks 12 games for the just the third time in school history. The NCAA limits football teams to 11 regular season games, but the Eddie Robinson Classic has been designated as an exempt game, opening the door for the appearance.
the Classic was founded before last season to benefit the Eddie Robinson Foundation, which gives out college scholarships. It is named after the former Grambling coach who won more games than any other coach in college football history.
Irish coach Bob Davie said he was excited about the excitement the preseason matchup generates.
"There is a tremendous amount of interest generated by the preseason games, so our team, our program, and our fans, not to
mention the scholarship recipients, all will benefit from our participation in the Eddie Robinson Football Classic." Davie said.
The appearance will be the first by the Jayhawks in a preseason event since 1993, when Kansas was beaten by Florida State 42-0.
Jayhawk fans are looking forward to the matchup as well.
"I think that playing Notre Dame says a lot about the quality of our program," said Darin Brubaker, Topeka freshman."Even if we lose, it's a lot better losing to Notre Dame than anyone else."
Brubaker, however, does not hold out a lot of optimism for a Jayhawk victory. "At least we can say, 'We got killed by Notre Dame.' Brubaker said.
After the trip to South Bend, the Jayhawks return to Lawrence to open up their home schedule against Cal State Northridge Sept. 11. After playing the Jayhawks, the Irish play the following week at Michigan.

Kansas baseball defeats Sooners, Razorbacks

Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas baseball team continued to ride its season-long roller coaster during the break.
in a season that has been marked by periods of disaster and brilliance, the Jayhawks led off spring break with a rough weekend at home against Nebraska.
The 'Hawks built a four-game winning streak that pulled them to within two games of .500 but then hit another drop in the roller coaster as they surrendered 44 runs in three games to the Cornhuskers.
The Jayhawks were swept in three games, losing 13-4, 18-6, and 13-8.
"We just couldn't keep them under double digits all weekend long," coach Bobby Randall said.
The losses dropped the Jayhawks' overall record to 7-15 and 3-9 in Big 12 play.
Despite the disappointment of the sweep, shortstop John Nelson extended his hitting streak to 13 games during the series.
The streak, which culminated at 15 games and was a career high for Nelson, helped him earn Big 12 player of the week honors. Nelson became the third Jayhawk to receive that honor.
"I'm honored to receive this award," Nelson said.
"I've been working hard at practice and trying to
take that to the games. Although I'm honored to receive the recognition, I would trade it for wins for our team anytime."
Baseball
Soon after, the team got a win when it traveled to
Arkansas to face the Razorbacks, who were ranked No.35 in the nation.
in the first game Kansas played solid defense and delivered hit when it hit to, winning 9-6.
rine Sooners early struggles in Big 12 play did not show up in game one as they pounded out hit after hit and defeated the Javahwks 9-3.
After dipping out of the Big 12 and enjoying a peak of the roller coaster, the Jayhawks traveled to Oklahoma to again engage in conference play.
The second game ended badly for Kansas as the 'Hawks gave up a late home run and lost 7-6.
Nelson finished the game hitless and his streak ended at 15 games. That total tied Nelson for ninth on the all-time Kansas hitting streak list.
Game two was a different story as the Jayhawks countered every Sooner blow with one of their own. After nine innings the game was tied 6-6, but in the bottom of the 10th, with two outs, Oklahoma pitcher Jeff Bajenaru hit a grand slam. Bajenaru entered the game in the eighth inning and got the win.
The final game of the series again went extra innings, but this time the ride peaked again, as the Javahaws won 10-5 in 11 innings.
For the second time in one day, the winning pitcher
homed in extra innings, giving his team the win.
Brandon O'Neal, who had entered the game in the ninth to pitch, hit a solo home run and broke the tie. The team then tacked on four more runs behind Nelson's three-run homer, ensuring the win, and O'Neal became the winning pitcher.
The Jayhawks, 9-18 overall and 4-11 in Big 12 play,
return home this week for five games. The team will
play host to Missouri Tuesday and Wednesday and
will entertain Baylor in a three game weekend series.

Loyal duo scores Purdue women's NCAA title
The Associated Press
SAN JOSE, Calif. — Purdue's Ukari Figgs wasn't about to let it end this way. After failing to score a point in the first half, she came out in the second to make sure the Boilermakers got their national championship.
"I knew I had 20 minutes to be a winner or a loser." Figs said an 18-point second-half performance.
Figgs has played most of her collegi career in the shadow of fellow
guard and Indiana star Stephanie White-McCarty. She continued that trend in the first half against Duke on Sunday night.
She scored her first basket 17 seconds into the second half. Less than a minute later, she scored again, bringing Purdue within 22-21. The Boilermakers wrestled for the lead, but didn't take it until Figgs' driving layup at 12:57 made it 32-30.
The guard went 0-for-7 from the floor and the shortcoming reflected on her entire team. The Boilermakers trailed 21-17 at the half.
Along with that go-ahead basket, Figgus had eight points as Purdue went on a 12-4 run to extend the lead to 42-34.
When Figgs finally caught fire, White-McCarty casually held out her hand as she passed by her best friend during a lull in play. Figgs hit it, and each smiled. The Boilermakers were making their big move.
Figgs and White-McCarty capped their college careers with a 62-45 victory over Duke for the national

Commentary Duke needs worthy win to maintain reputation
When Duke takes the floor tonight in the NCAA championship game, its opponent will be history as much as it will be Connecticut.
The Blue Devils have enjoyed a season of dominance not seen on the college men's basketball circuit since UNLV of the early '90s.
Seven of Duke's nine scholarship players are former McDonald's All-Americans, a title held by the best 20 or so high school players in the country each year. A last-sec
ond play by Cincinnati is all that separates Duke from a perfect record. Elton Brand is the most unstoppable player in the country, Trajan Langdon is perhaps the best shooter, nobody defends like Shane Battier, and you'd have a hard time finding many point guards better than William Avery.
But unless Duke
Sam Mellinger sports@kansan.com
beats UConn tonight, and beats them like it's its job, any claims of Duke among the best teams ever should be followed by a "veeh, but..."
Yeah, but college basketball is watered down. Dick Vitale may scream otherwise, but think about it.
Duke is definitely one of the most dominant teams college basketball has ever seen. Despite playing a brutal non-conference schedule, plus 19 ACC games, Duke has just three times won a game by less than 10 points. The Devils won their first four postseason games by 41, 41, 17 and 21 points.
Think about the games Kansas would have won with Paul Pierce. Hypothetical situations are always sketchy, but it's a sturdy limb I'm going out on saying the Jayhawks wouldn't have blown all those late leads.
Or look at DePaul, where Kobe Bryant was headed if there were no NBA millions. He, Quinton Richardson and Lance Simmons would be scary. Or what about Arizona with Mike Bibby? Kentucky with Ron Mercer?
But the biggest "yeah, but," argument against Duke comes about 20 miles down the road from Durham. If Vince Carter—NBA Rookie of the Year? — and Antawan Jamison — 1998's NCAA Player of the Year
— were still around, Duke may not be the best team in its own conference. And don't forget, Kevin Garnett was seriously considering the Tar Heels.
So what you have is an obviously inferior group of teams this year if you compare them to the days when leaving college early was rare exception rather than common action.
And that's exactly why Duke needs to send the Huskies home with visions of Elton Brand dunks, Shane Battier blocks and Trajan Langdon threes running through their heads like a bad nightmare.
You see, UConn is the exception to college basketball's junior varsity state. Richard Hamilton, who shunned a spot in last year's NBA draft, was the leading candidate for Player of the Year before a midseason foot injury. The Huskies have lost just two games — one without Hamilton and center Jake Voskuhl — and are the only team to be ranked No. 1 this season besides Duke.
Doughboy point guard Khalid El-Amin is Avery's equal, Ricky Moore plays the kind of defense that could keep Langdon from a big game, and if Voskuhl can at least slow brand down, UConn could pull it.
The Huskies are for real, and with a good game and a little luck they can beat Duke.
Duke faces its biggest test of the season tonight, and needs more than just a passing grade to be considered among the best teams ever.
With a convincing win, there would be no buts.

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (March 29).
You're getting lots of attention this year, and that's great. You look marvelous, especially in April. By May, you should be ready to play by the rules. You'll know the reason why by August. Take more responsibility in September, and again in November. By December, you'll barely recognize yourself. Your dreams come alive in February
Aries (March 21-April 19): Today is a 6.
Aries (March 21-April 19): Today is a B.
You're drawing a lot of attention today, and most of it's positive. It's important to look good because it will be like you're on display. You're putting on a performance for a critical audience, but they will love you.
Taurus (April 20-May 20): Today is a 6.
tours (April 20-24月) today.
Somebody else is being pushed, and you're getting pushed as a result. It's the domino effect. You won't like being pushed and don't respond well to that sort of stimulation. The other person is enthusiastic, but you have the common sense and the experience.
Gemini (May 21-June 21): Today is a 6.
Love and marriage go together, and if your love affair needs a commitment, this is a good day to make it. A friend may want to upgrade to a more intimate status, and that would do the trick. Don't wait for the other person to make the first move. If you think it's right, go for it.
Cancer [June 22-July 22]: Today is a 6.

Some say it's whom you know who helps you become successful; others say it's what you know. It's both for you today. If someone you trust recommends a marvelous opportunity, just say yes.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Today is a 6.
How long has it been since you and your favorite person had a real vacation? If the answer is never, what's the problem? If you make Paris in the spring a higher priority than, say, drinking beer and eating pretzels, could you make it happen? Work together.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sep. 22): Today is a 6.
This looks like an excellent day to make an investment. Put your money in a place where it can grow without too much risk. Although you have to act quickly, you should not act impetuously. Do the home work first. This is not a gamble, it's a strategy.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Today is a 6.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Today is a 6.
Sometimes you're the best person to carry out a job, but not always. Today, for example, it looks like somebody else has better skills than you do for a specific task.
Instead of trying to learn how to do it yourself, simply delegate. The time you save will be worth the money.
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Today is a 6.
**Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).** Today is Scorpio. You and a friend really ought to think about going into business for yourselves. You could think of lots of jobs for other people to do, and that the basis of being a good entrepreneur. Now all you have to do is think of a way to sell what they produce and you've got it made.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Today is a 6.
Your assignment for today is to be perfect, or as near as you can manage. At first you might think it's impossible to meet another's expectations, but actually, it could turn out to be fun. Think of it as a game and if you win, you will gain the respect from a person you admire.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Today is a 6.
Capricorn (Dec. 23-Sun. 19) Today, this is another good day for love, and this time, travel may be required. You definitely need to get into an area with which you are slightly unfamiliar. Something unusual — a different neighborhood, a different language — will add to the thrill.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Today is a 6
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Today is a 6.
One of your best ideas is in danger of being shot down today. Somebody's going to be asking highly detailed questions — how can this work? how much will it cost? etc. It's not going to be a problem if you have taken the time to prepare the answers.
Pictures (Feb. 19-March 20), today, there’s an indication today that money is coming into your account, possibly quite a lot. It comes partially because you’ve taken a partner’s suggestions seriously. And because what you’re doing is being noticed by people in high places.

Buffalo rallies late defeats Penguins
BUFFALO, N.Y. — Dixon Ward scored the fourth overtime goal of his career after the Buffalo Sabres rallied from a 3-1 deficit in the third period and beat the Pittsburgh Penguins 4-3 Sunday.
Ward's decisive goal — against Jean-Seubain Bastien at 2:27 was his 17th this season. Assists went to Vaclav Marda and Michael Peca.
Buffalo — which scored twice despite just five shots in the third period — tied the game with eight minutes left when Geoff Sanderson stole the puck in the Pittsburgh end and scored his 12th goal. It was his first in 14 games.
The Penguins, who lost in overtime for the first time this season to fall to 6-1-13 in extra-session games, took a 1-0 lead midway through the first period when Jagr beat Dominik Hasek for his 35th goal.
Jaromir Jagr had two power-play goals and an assist as the Penguins went ahead 3-1 after two periods. Only Ward and Sanderson scored with the teams at even strength.
Nick Faldo disqualified from golf tournament
PONTE VEDRA BEACH, Fla. — A bad tournament got worse Sunday for Nick Faldo when he was disqualified from the final round of The Players Championship after taking some bad advice from Corey Pavin.
Faldo hit his second shot at No. 6 in a palm tree, but could not identify the ball. Because the ball was lost, he started to walk back and hit another ball from the same spot when Pavin told him he was allowed to drop under the tree for a one-stroke penalty.
The infraction was Rule 20-7b — playing from the wrong place.
"We both saw it go in." Pavin said. "This happened to me two weeks ago, so I know it's right." It was wrong.
"Corey talked him into a bad ruling," rules official Jon Brendle said.
The ball is considered lost unless it can be identified. Brendie said the rules committee would have accepted efforts to identify the ball such as using binoculars, even a spectator's word that it was Faldo's ball that went into the tree.
After Faldo and Pavin played out the hole, a spectator told the rules committee what had happened. Brendle asked Faldo on the seventh green whether he had been able to identify the ball in the tree, and Faldo told him no.
Because the sixth hole had been completed, there was no alternative for Faldo but disqualification.
"It just adds to the frivolity," he said.
Faldo, who hasn't won in two years, shot an 83 Saturday, tying his worst round ever in the United States. He will still get $9,100 in unofficial money.

Men add to winning record
Road trip victories boost team to 9-2
By Melinda Weaver sports@kansan.com Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas men's tennis team boosted its record to 9-2 on a fourgame spring break road trip.
The team was 3-1 on the trip, beating Yale, San Diego and No.27 San Diego State before losing to No.40 Tulsa Saturday, ending a nine-game winning streak, the fifth-longest winning streak in Kansas history.
On the 19th, the No.42 Jayhawks began their trip by defeating Yale 4-3 in a comeback victory.
The team was down 3-1 when senior Luis Uribe started the comeback by winning his 100th career match. Freshman Quentin Blakeney won in three sets, and senior Kenny Powell clinched the match with a three-set win over Scott Carlton.
"We didn't get into our doubles very well, but in singles everyone
played well," Uribe said. "We proved that we are a very close team, and everyone is hungry to win."
Kansas won another close victory Monday over San Diego with a 4-3 win. Uribe's singles victory moved him into fourth place in team history with 101 victories.
Tuesday the team upset San Diego State 5-2 on its home court. This marked only the second home loss in two years for San Diego State.
No. 21 Uribe won a thriller over No. 36 Alex Waske in a tiebreaker in the third set 6-4, 6-7 (5), 7-6 (5).
"Our goal was to win all of our matches in California, and we did it," Uribe said. "We were all on the same page and that just proved how close our team is."
The team's winning streak ended Saturday in Tulsa as the Jayhawks fell 5-2 in their first loss since the season opener against Louisville
The only two victories came from
Rodrigo Echagaray in No. 5 singles and Blakeeny in No. 6 singles. Blakeny won his eight straight match. If he wins his next match, he will tie the team's best one-person winning streak this season.
Coach Mark Riley said the team needed to start winning its doubles point if it wanted to get back on track. In men's tennis the team that wins two of three doubles' matches gets the point. Kansas has lost the doubles point in its last five matches after winning it in the first six.
"If you lose the doubles point in 75 to 80 percent of the matches, you will lose the match," Riley said. "We won four straight where we didn't and it finally caught up with us. The guys aren't clicking right now."
The team will have a chance to redeem itself this weekend when the Jayhawks play two Big 12 Conference competitors, Oklahoma and Colorado.
Riley said he thought the team would do well if it could regain its intensity in doubles competition
"We have a good team, but if we don't play with intensity and play every match hard, we'll lose," Riley said.

Jayhawk softball's woes continue in tournament, conference play
The Kansas softball team's struggles continued in the Airtouch Capital Classic March 18-21 in Sacramento. The Jayhawks, who finished the tournament with a 2-4 record, were eliminated from the consolation bracket after losing to Ohio 10-7.
The Jayhawks continued to have problems holding onto leads in the tournament, but that was not the case against Ohio. Kansas was forced to play catch-up after the Bobcats jumped out to an early 6-0 lead. The Jayhawks tried to mount a rally when junior Christy McPail hit her second home run of the season, but the Kansas comeback fell short after scoring three runs in the sixth inning and
in the first game of the consolation bracket, the Jayhawks scored seven runs on 13 hits, claiming a 7-0 victory over Southeast Missouri State.
Edited by Darrin Peschka
Kansas dropped both games to the Cowboys, 2-4 and 3-5.
Junior pitcher Sarah Workman earned the win, allowing just two hits and striking out nine. It was Workman's fifth shutout of the

cutting the Ohio lead to 10-7.
"The team, as well as the coaching staff, is obviously frustrated," head coach Tracy Bunge said. "The kids were tired and it affected them."

The Jayhawks were scheduled to open Big 12 Conference play with a doubleheader against Oklahoma State March 27 in Stillwater, but adverse weather conditions forced the games' cancellation. Kansas traveled to Norman for two games against Oklahoma on Sunday.
In the second game of the consolation bracket, Kansas took a 5-4 lead over Baylor after junior Shannon Stanwix blasted a two-run home run. But Baylor scored a run in the bottom of the seventh, tying the game, 5,5, and sending it to extra innings. Baylor added another run in the 10th inning and handed Kansas its third loss of the tournament.

Jordan may buy part of Hornets
The Associated Press
Charlotte Hornets officials and those with the NBA say Jordan spoke with team owner George Shinn earlier this month about buying a 50 percent share of the NBA franchise.
Jordan also told the Charlotte Observer he had met with John Fennebresque, who is in charge of developing a new arena for the Hornets.
CHICAGO — It's easy to picture Michael Jordan as an executive. Dressed in the finest suit money can buy, chomping on a cigar in his office and simply taking charge, as he did so often on the court.
player to part-time owner.
According to the Chicago Sun-Times, which cited unidentified sources in an article Sunday, Jordan and agent David Falk were in the Bahamas, discussing the move from retired
ever he wants to do,
Bulls chairman Jerry
Reinsdorf told the newspaper
Saturday. "I also believe he would make a good owner. He is good at everything he does.
Michael is very bright and has very good insight into things that he focuses on."
Less than three months removed from his second retirement as a player, Jordan is considering a move to the other side of the business.
"If this is something Michael wants to do, I'm all for it, because he's earned the right to do."
Reinsdorf said several years ago he had briefly talked to Jordan about buying into the Bulls.
PETER C. WOODS
"That wasn't an offer,
Reinsdorf said. "I asked
him if he'd like to be. He said no. He said he didn't think he would enjoy being an owner

because he thought he would not be tolerant of the players."
Reinsdorf, speaking to the Chicago Tribune from Arizona, speculated that Jordan would want to hire Phil Jackson as his coach. He said he would like to see Falk become general manager because "then he (Jordan) will save all the rest of the teams a lot of money."
Shinn was granted an expansion franchise for $32.5 million and was revered in Charlotte when the Hornets made their debut in 1988. Now, he's gotten the reputation for refusing to pay the big money to keep top players — the Hornets lost stars Alonzo Mourning, Larry Johnson and Glen Rice from a team that once appeared on its way to the top.
Hornets officials said that no firm dates had been set for the two sides to meet again but that both parties had agreed to stay in touch.
Coach Dave Cowens resigned in frustration this month, and fans have been staying away.
Magic-Bird matchup was memorable game
The Associated Press
ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — Magic vs. The Birdman.
This was the showdown everyone in America wanted, and when Indiana State defeated DePaul and Michigan State beat Penn in the NCAA semifinals 20 years ago, it arrived.
Larry Bird and Magic Johnson, the two most compelling players in the country, would at last go at one another with the national title at stake.
All but ignored was DePaul coach Ray Meyer's first trip to the Final Four since 1943 and the unlikely journey to the semifinals by Ivy League representative Penn.
They were nothing more than minor obstacles in the way of the Magic-Bird show.
There had been other fascinating Final Fours — the UCLA dynasty with 10 championships in 12 years, Indiana's undefeated 1976 champions, Texas Western's all-black team beating Kentucky's all-white team in 1966.
But rarely had there been a superstar standoff like this one.
This was not just the Sycamore vs. the Spartans. This was Bird, a 6-foot-9 shaggy-haired forward with a shot scout dream about, vs. Johnson, a 6-foot-8 point guard whose ball-handling and shooting

One was laconic, the other effusive. Bird was all business, loathe to talk about himself. Johnson was all smiles, enthusiastic all the time. Maybe it was that contrast in personalities that made this matchup so intriguing.
skills seemed nothing less than mystical.
Johnson has said it was like two guys wanting to be the best, a couple of gunslingers facing each other down, knowing only one could survive. To this day, he loves to talk about the game, but Bird is tightlipped.
"Magic has been promoting that because he won the game," Bird said. "If I won the game, you would have never heard of it."
A year later, they would move together to the NBA and transform the league. Bird with the Boston Celtics, Johnson with the Los Angeles Lakers.
But on March 26, 1979, in the Special Events Center at the University of Utah, they had one last college game, the first duel in what would become a long-standing rivalry.

Big-league baseball returns to Cuba
The Associated Press
HAVANA—He walked onto the field like he owned the place, straight and tall with a purpose, this old University of Havana right-hander.
And by the time Fidel Castro had cut across the diamond to meet them Sunday, the Baltimore Orioles could tell this meant far more than any spring training game they had ever played.
"Fi-dell! Fi-dell!" the 50,000 fans chanted at Estadio Latinoamericano at the sight of their president. "Cuba! Cbu-ba!"
Albert Belle, Brady Anderson and the rest of the Orioles gathered around the 73-year-old leader to shake hands, curious to see how he looked up close in his combat fatigues. Manager Ray Miller talked to Castro through an interpreter.
"He told me this was a good baseball town," Miller said after Baltimore beat a Cuban all-star team 3-2 in 11 innings. "He said not to worry, that we were playing in front of the greatest baseball fans in the world."
While Cuban defectors such as Orlando "El Duque" Hernandez, Livan Hernandez and Rey Ordonez
had left and found fame in the majors, no one on the Communist island had seen a big league team visit since 1959.
"Nobody came down here looking
tory," Orioles outfielder B.J. Surhoff said. "Everybody came down here looking to play a baseball game."
Still, Surhoff carried the U.S. flag onto the field for the nati onal anthems and later gave his

Tickets were issued on an invitation-only basis — instead of the 10 cents they normally cost — ensuring the stands would be packed with loyal Castro supporters. In fact, many were in their seats three hours before gametime.
but that left out many of Cuba's most passionate "pelota" fans, along with a lot of traditional touches.
Missing for most of the warm, sunny afternoon were the drums, sirens, air horns, singing, dancing and rumba music that enveloped the ballpark from the first pitch during Saturday night's playoff game between the Havana Industriales and Santiago.
No cheerleaders in black spandex jumped on top of the dugouts, no ballgirls served coffee to the umpires during the fifth-inning break. No one smuggled in Havana Club rum, and no beer was sold inside, either.
Charles Johnson's two-run homer off Cuban ace Jose Jose in the second kept things quiet until the home team rallied in the late innings. That's when it got loud, and Castro grinned when Linares' RBI single in the eighth tied it.
"The people who go to the stadium every day cannot go," said 32-year-old Omar Ramirez. "Why? Why?"
A few blocks away, little boys were undaunted. With nothing more than rotted sticks for bats and rolled-up socks for balls, they kept playing Cuba's national sport.
Castro had not been out to the stadium for several years. He will not go with the Cuban team when its plays at Baltimore's Camden Yards on
May3.
He spent about two minutes greeting the Orléans before visiting with the Cubans and watched the game while sitting between major league

well" gesture with his hands and later congratulated the Cuban players. The Orioles have a projected payroll of more than $80 million this season; Cuban players earn around $10 per month.
Once an AAA hotspot when the Havana Sugar Kings ruled, the Caribbean island had not seen a big league club since March 21, 1959, after Castro took power. On that day, at the very same ballpark, with guards strolling with machine guns, Sandy Koufax led Los Angeles to a win against Cincinnati 2-1.
Since then, it's been a blackout and blockade for Cuban fans trying to follow major-league ball.
Kauffman Stadium seats bring fans to home plate
The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. Ready for the crack of the bat?
See the imperfect spin of a hanging curve before hearing it get whacked from the new on-field seat at Kaupati Stadium — you're closer to the plate than the pitcher is.
Season ticket holders will fill 160 Crown Seats behind home plate and between the dugouts as well as Dugout Seats connected to four luxury suites along the sidelines.
The $12 million renovation to Kauffman Stadium is the first major seating project done at the ballpark since it opened as Royals Stadium in 1973.
The renovation project was designed to increase revenue from the stadium for the

owner-in-waiting who has made it clear he does not come with deep pockets.
"Outside of Montreal, I don't know anyone who needs it more than us," said Mike
Levy, vice president of marketing for a club that let all of its free agents go except one, does not even bother competing for others and desperately wants to trade its best pitcher to unload his salary.

"We can use it," said Levy of the anticipated annual revenue of $1.5 million. "We did studies. We did focus groups. We did telephone surveys. We did feasibility studies. This is what people told us they wanted."
The Crown Seats sold out within three weeks of their offering at $1,800 a seat for the season. The seats include

access to the Crown Club, located beneath the lower tier of the stadium, which offers upscale dining and a full-service bar.
"You can't explain that view," Levy said as he looked across the field, getting the same look of first that the third baseman would have.
The renovation project included 23,000 new, modern seats in the lower tier of the stadium as well as extensive remodeling of the clubhouses, construction of new indoor batting cages and expanded dugouts.
"It wasn't a question of 'can you do it,'" Levy said. "We've got to do it. Our goal is not just to stay in place. Our goal is to be state of the art."
Venus victorious in Williams' Lipton matchup
The Associated Press
KEY BISCAYNE, Fla. — Talk about close sisters. Venus Williams beat kid sister Serena in the final of the Lipton Championships on Sunday, but she needed three sets to do it. Venus took eight of the final nine points and won 6-1, 4-6, 6-4.
When Serena's forehand landed wide on match point, there was no show of jubilation from Venus, or even a smile. The sisters walked slowly to the net to exchange high fives, and then Venus, 18, put her arm around Serena, 17, as they walked off the court.
Their father, Richard Williams, watched most of the match from the stands, occasionally holding up signs for the crowd. One read: "Welcome to the Williams show."
Hannah won $265,000 for her second consecutive Lipton title. Serena's 16-match winning streak ended, and she settled for $132,000.
The sisters looked tense throughout the match but wore broad smiles during the trophy ceremony. "It's so great Serena is doing so well." Venus said. "It's so exciting. We're really happy."
Venus dominated the first set, with Serena rarely able to hit a ball beyond her sister's reach. Serena was inconsistent from the baseline throughout the match and had 66 unforced errors, to 41 for Venus.

Scandal delays unveiling of mascot
The Associated Press
SALT LAKE CITY — The scandal-delayed unveiling of the mascot for the 2002 Winter Games has been set for May 15.
been set for May 10. The Salt Lake Organizing Committee had planned to unveil the mascot on Feb. 8, but didn't like the mood brought on by the allegations that Salt Lake organizers provided $1 million in cash, scholarships and gifts to IOC members to win the event.
SLOC president Mitt Romney on Thursday would not say whether the mascot was one or more characters. But he suggested that rather than cute and cuddly, the mascot "embodies the spirit of the American West and Utah."
American West and a town The mascot is to be launched at an evening community celebration, with the 1,000-day countdown to the Winter Games starting at midnight.
SLOC expects $52 million in revenue from licensed products, a big chunk of which are clothes, trinkets, pins and toys bearing the image of the mascot.
The announcement came at a press conference when Romney returned from Lausanne, Switzerland, where he met Tuesday with leaders of the IOC dealing with the worst corruption crisis in Olympic history.
The IOC voted to oust six members who accepted hundreds of thousands of dollars in gifts, cash and freebies from the Salt Lake City bid committee. Four members resigned

gies for the 2002 Winter Games.
He also sought the IOC's help in identifying how the SLOC can make cutbacks in its $1.5 billion budget and asked for prompt, thorough reform that will satisfy sponsors skittish about the value of the scandal-tarnished Olympic rings. The SLOC needs to raise $288 million more from sponsors to finance its budget.
Romney lauded the reforms approved by the IOC on Thursday—a change in the selection process
for the 2006 Winter Games and special commissions to police members and reform the IOC — and said he hopes to see more.
The Department of Justice is investigating the scandal for possible criminal violations.
It expects to conclude the probe in June, The Salt Lake Tribune reported today.

The newspaper said Justice prosecutors are interested in how former SLOC President Tom Welch arranged payments to ARCA, a company run by Alfredo La Mont, a Colorado Springs consultant who resigned as USOC director of international relations under conflict-of-interest accusations. Before October 1995, Salt Lake's bid committee made six payments totaling $18,185.90 to ARCA.

Weekend horse races reveal Derby hopefuls
FLORENCE, Ky. - This wasn't Bob Baffert's weekend.
The trainer spent all day Saturday flying from Dubai, United Arab Emirates, to London to Cincinnati only to see Straight Man, one of his 3-year-old prospects, fade to fourth in the $750,000 Gallery Furniture.com Stakes at Turfwark Park.
The Associated Press
Then on Sunday, 1997 Kentucky Derby and Preakness winner Silver Charm finished sixth in the eighth-horse field at the $5 million Dubai World Cup.
No, this was Nick Zito's weekend. When his colt, Stephen Got Even, roared past Straight Man at the top of the stretch and finished 21/2 lengths in front of K One King, Zito had another horse bound for the Kentucky Derby.
"I've been trying all spring to get myself into position." Zita said.
hysical embrace.
Zito, Baffert and Wayne Lukas have accounted for six of the nine Derby winners this decade — Zito in 1991 with Strike the Gold and in 1994 with Go for Gin. Lukas won two in a row with Thunder Gulch and Grindstone, and Baffert had the past two with Silver Charm and Real Quiet.
Zito already had one fairly solid
Derby prospect — Wondertross, who was second in the Florida Derby.
But Stephen Got Even may have moved ahead of Wondertross in his barn, said Zito, who was thinking of taking the colt to the Derby without another prep.
Owner Stephen Hilbert said Zito told him long ago that Stephen Got Even was a promising colt, even though the Gallery was only his fourth race.

The Associated Press
TORONTO — Rookie Vince Carter had 22 points and six blocked shots as

Purdue rallies for second-half victory

title.
"I thought earlier in the first half she was looking for a shot a little bit, but she was going to figure the game out," Duke coach Gail Goostenkors said of Figgs. "She used her quickness, her speed, her athleticism and really got to the basket."
White-McCarty and Figgs form what has been called the best women's backcourt in the country. Figgs quietly and competently played her game, while White-McCarty grabbed a lot of the attention in her home state — leading many of their teammates to call Figgs Purdue's unsung hero.
Figgs proved her worth during the Final Four. Against Louisiana Tech in the semifinals, Figgs scored 24 points, 18 in the first half. She also had 10 rebounds and went 5-of-7 on three-point shots.
The Final Four and the eventual national championship were the culmination of a turbulent tenure at Purdue for both Figgs and White-McCarty.
Both started as high school stand-outs. White-McCarty reached megastar status in the small town of West Lebanon, and was named
Miss Basketball in Indiana. Figgs was Miss Basketball in Kentucky.
Both chose Purdue, but after their freshman year, coach Lin Dunn was fired. Then sophomore-year coach Nell Fortner left to coach the U.S. Women's National Team.
Some players, including Duke's Nicole Erickson and Michele VanGorp, gave up on Purdue and transferred.
Figgs and White McCary stayed, and it paid off when Purdue assistant Carolyn Peck was named coach. Together, they began a two-year quest that ended at the San Jose Arena on Sunday.
Peck said that under Fortner, Figgs and White-McCarty made a commitment to winning at Purdue.
"When you saw that from them you knew this was going to be something special," Peck said.
White-McCarty was more steady Sunday night with 12 points, including eight in the first half, but left the game with about four minutes to go with a severe ankle sprain. As White-McCarty wailed in pain from the bench, Figgs made sure the Boilermakers staved focused.
"Steph and I have been through so much together," she said. "We dreamed about it, we talked about winning a national championship."

Top-ranked teams ready for final game
The Associated Press
ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — How fitting.
Way back in November, the seers of college basketball put Duke and Connecticut atop the preseason poll. On Monday night, those teams will decide the national championship.
No other schools held the No.1 ranking this season, and it's been 34 years since two teams in that position played for the title, with UCLA beating Michigan.
WOLF
"To have the two of us playing for the national championship is terrific." Blue Devils coach Mike Krzyzewski said.
Duke (37-1) has won 32 straight games, and another win would give it the NCAA record for victories in a season and its third championship of the '90s.
Krzzyzewski has taken the Blue Devils to the Final Four eight times since 1986, and on Monday he could become the
fourth coach with three or more championships.
His 48-12 tournament record also makes him the winningest active coach. Former North Carolina coach Dean Smith has the only better total. 65.
Connecticut coach Jim Calhoun, making his first Final Four appearance, is well aware of Krzyzewski's impressive credentials.
"When you talk about Final Fours, you're talking about Mike Krzyzewski," said Calhoun, who's in his 27th season as a head coach, the last 13 with the Huskies. "He's the coach for our generation."
Third-ranked Connecticut (33-2) hasn't exactly been a slouch in the '90s, either.
The Huskies have made seven regional semifinal appearances — tied for the most in that span — and three in regional championship games. The first of those was a 79-78 loss to Duke when Christian Laetner hit a jumper on an inbounds play at the buzzer in 1990
"Sometimes, for us, excellence hasn't been enough in the '90s," Calhoun said. Ever since the brackets were
announced two weeks ago, Connecticut has been looking ahead to the game most people saw as the tournament's best all along.
"We've played this game in our minds and now we get to a chance to do it," Huskies center Jake Voskuhl said.
Duke comes in off a 68-62 victory over second-ranked Michigan State in the semifinals, a tough game in which the
Blue Devils scored their fewest points this season.
"We came out of that game in good health and it certainly was a very
D
physical game," said Krzyezwski, who decided not to have the team practice yesterday. Instead, the team went over some scouting material.
Win or lose, the Blue Devils will end their season on the same floor they did last year.
They lost to eventual national champion Kentucky in the South Regional final at Tropicana field after leading by 17 points in the second half.
"In UConn being the only other team ranked No. 1 in the nation and a lot of people saying that's the best team, it's a great way to finish the year," he said.
added that not a whole lot was needed.
Duke, which leads the nation in scoring at 92.3 per game, is also No.1 in margin of victory (25.4), just off its NCAA tournament average of 25.2
Duke's Trajan Langdon said that loss had provided some motivation, but he
"Duke's not a difficult team to prepare for," Calhoun said, "they're a difficult team to play."
The fact that Duke is the heavy favorite doesn't seem to matter to Connecticut, which beat Ohio State 64-58 in the semifinals.
"At 33-2, we've been a pretty good team ourselves. We have been brilliant at times. We have been pragmatic at times. We have survived at times," Calhoun said.
"Very few teams have been afforded the opportunity to have the kind of season Duke has had," he said. "Be that as it may, the game comes down to 40 minutes Monday night, not what some folks think it should be, would be, could be. It comes down to two teams that won 70 basketball games this season."
Trajan Langdon's shooting, defense spark Duke win
The Associated Press
ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — He did what the good ones always do when things go bad. Trajan Langdon let the game find him.
For the first two-thirds of Saturday night's semifinal, Duke's best player was more a rumor than a fact. He passed up his own shots and defended like a devil in blue instead. He crashed the boards and chased loose balls into the seats. He threw passes that split the seams in the Michigan State zone like a man freed from a yearlong diet.
With eight minutes left and the Spartans surging to within three points of a tie, Langdon

caught the ball on the right side behind the 3-point arc and let fly a jump shot. It
Michigan State, playing a more physical brand of defense than Duke's football team was likely to encounter in the fall, pulled within 51-48 after Charlie Bell drained two free throws and some of the color out of Krzzyzewski's face.
It didn't matter. The result was the same.
was the same one that he'd taken a thousand times on frozen playgrounds in Alaska, except then he was still a schoolboy, stuck wearing gloves and a coat.
There were eight minutes to go, no easy shots to be had, and Duke's dominating big man, Elton Brand, was on the bench with his fourth foul. The huge rebounding edge the Blue Devils enjoyed in the first half while building a 32-20 lead was melting even faster than their confidence. A trio of Spartan defenders had taken turns sticking to Langdon like his shadow.
"Coach told me to stay aggressive and my teammates did,
too," he said. "I waited five years for this. I'm excited."
Even the most magical of seasons can be undone by the smallest doubts, and what Langdon had done by stepping up in the biggest moment suddenly became contagious.
"You never saw any worry in their eyes," Michigan State's A.J. Granger said afterward.
And in short order, Langdon slipped into the background as Blue Devil guards William Avery and then Chris Carrawell, and then Brand, inserted back in the game, took turns taking over.
It wasn't pretty, but it captured Langdon's effort on the night even better than the 3-point basket could have.
Langdon's ankle has been a problem since junior high school and he reinjured it as recently as the Atlantic Coast Conference tournament several weeks ago. It was so bad that for days, Langdon kept a compress sent to him by a Tlingit medicine man taped to the ankle, hoping to reduce his recovery time.
That he would risk reinjuring it again in the closing minutes of a game the Blue Devils already owned says everything about how much Langdon was determined to take the next step.
"Expect it? This is what I wanted to do the first day I got to Duke," he said. "This is what I always wanted. But expect it? Never."
In the other semifinal game, Connecticut held off Ohio State and defeated the Buckeyes, 64-58.
Richard Hamilton gave Connecticut coach Jim Calhoun the kind of Final Four performance he's been dreaming about all these year, and UConn stopped Ohio State's run of upsets.
Crushed by heartbreaking losses so many times, Calhoun was delighted to finally get a shot at his first national title.
"That sounds awfully good," Calhoun said, soaking in the words "championship game." "Can you say it again please?"

4,000 per hour evacuate Kosovo in mass exodus
The Associated Press
THE STUDENT NEWSPAPER OF THE UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS
(USPS 650-640)
BELGRADE, Yugoslavia — Thousands of bedraggled refugees, many with little more than the clothes on their backs, strag-
gled out of Kosovo yesterday in one of the largest postwar exoduses in Europe as NATO bombed Yugoslavia for a sixth day.
With nearly one-quarter of Kosovo's population now made homeless since Yugoslav President Slobodan Milosevic launched the Kosovo crackdown 13 months ago, disquieting reports surfaced of
ethnic Albanian leaders being summarily executed.
CARY SCHNEIDER
Milosevic: NATO has continued to bomb Yugoslavia
The newspaper's publisher,
Veton Surroi, and Rugova have gone into hiding, NATO officials reported.
NATO said it had reliable reports that Fehmi Agani, a close aide to ethnic Albanian leader Ibrahim Rugova and one of the negotiators at the failed Rambouillet peace talks, was killed Sunday after attending the funeral of a slain human rights lawyer.
People forced across the border
Four other prominent ethnic Albanians were also reported executed in the Serbs' "scorched earth policy," NATO said, including Baton Haxhiu, editor in chief of Koha Ditore, the Albanian-language newspaper in Kosovo's capital of Pristina.
appealed to his countrymen to take in the refugees. Many of those arriving were in tears, exhausted and carrying their only possessions.
Refugees were streaming across the Albanian border at the rate of 4,000 an hour on Sunday, OSCE and NATO officials said Monday. The exodus was straining the already desperate resources of one of Europe's poorest countries.
The Albanian prime minister
were being stripped of their passports, identity papers, even their car license plates, in an apparent effort to make it impossible for them to return, authorities said.
"It's almost as if their identities are being canceled out," NATO spokesman Jamie Shea said in Brussels, Belgium.
Some 80,000-100,000 Kosovo Albanian refugees have arrived in northern Albania, more than double the rate of a few days earlier, the U.N. relief agency said. Thousands more headed west to Montenegro and southeast to Macedonia
"Are you American?" Neijmie Kelmendi asked an Associated Press photographer as she trudged up a steep mountain road near Pec in southwestern Kosovo, accompanied by her two daughters. "Tell NATO that Pec is burning, and where are the ground troops?"
More than 2,000 people have died and a half-million others have been displaced — many of them forcibly — since the clashes began in Kosovo.
NATO seemed to back up the accounts of destruction, saying Monday that Pec was "substantially destroyed."

Provost, senators question Regents-restructuring bill

their senior yeducation.
The Senate passed a bill last week that would reconstitute the Board of Regents and add community colleges and vocational schools to its purview.
In addition, it approved an amendment that would limit the number of alumni on the board from any state university to three.
Seven of the nine Regents members have degrees from the University of Kansas.
"The amendment implies that we have somehow been favored, and I just don't think that's true." Shulenburger said. "I'm not at all pleased with the inherent insult."
The Senate's vote sent the bill to the House, where it has been referred to the Education Committee. Chairman Ralph Tanner, R-Baldwin, already has studied the bill and said the House likely would add a funding component.
The bill would abolish the Board of Regents and re-establish a new nine-member board July 1. The new board would be divided into three commissions one to oversee the six state universities, one to govern the 19 community colleges and 11 vocational-technical schools, and one to handle coordination issues.
Rep. Troy Findley, D-Lawrence, said that although community and technical colleges belonged under the Regents' control, he also had a problem with the alumni amendment.
problem with the administration.” It’s been described as a ‘get KU amendment,’” he said. “What concerns me the most is that the governor should have the opportunity to appoint the best people possible and not have to be held to the constraints of this amendment.”
Regents Executive Director Tom Bryant said that the board supported better coordination but that members should be allowed to divide responsibilities themselves instead of being appointed to commissions.
He also said the additional work was a matter of concern.
"We haven't been responsible for community colleges, so we don't know exactly what that workload's going to be." Bryant said. "But you've got to be doing more since you just added approximately 30 more institutions to the Regents' responsibility."
Shulenburger also said he was somewhat concerned about the increased workload for Regents governing public universities: The work of nine people would be placed on three board members.
"But on the other hand, if you are going to coordinate higher education, you've got to have a set of people who understand what's going on," he said.
The House Education Committee is expected to send the bill to the floor for debate this week. If the House passes it, it likely will end up in a conference committee.
Tanner said chances were good that the bill would pass, although nothing is guaranteed. This proposal has progressed further than any other higher-education reform proposal in state history.

Bids for Student Senate begin

YOU finalizes campaign agenda
Buttons, flyers and a couple of sofas on campus yesterday signaled the kick-off of the post-spring break Student Senate campaign season.
Members of YOU and Delta Force volleyed to attract students to their coalitions between classes. Delta Force sprawled its traditional "living room" on a lawn in front of Stauffer-Flint Hall, while members of YOU stood behind information tables in front of the Kansas Union and on Wescoe Beach.
A young girl is showing a collection of books to another child. The girl is holding the book open, and the other child is looking at it with interest. The table in front of them has several stacks of books and some papers on it. In the background, there are trees and a parking lot.
While Delta Force released its campaign issues earlier this month, YOU did not have its campaign issues finalized until just before spring break.
Korb Maxwell, YOU candidate for student body president, said that YOU surveyed more than 1,000 students in housing and campus organizations before arriving at its issues agenda.
"We picked issues that focused on improving the quality of life at the University," he said.
Lett: Erin Simpson, Lenexa sophomore, tells Jennifer Smith, Manhattan, Kan., senior, about Delta Force. The Delta Force table will be set up at popular campus sites all this week.
Below: Molly Bennett, Roeland Park sophomore, explains the importance of wearing the "YOU For Senate" button to Aly Jones, Lenexa sophomore. The YOU For Senate booth was at Wescoe Beach yesterday. Photos by Gus Koffler/KANSAN
Efforts to achieve a tuition cap head the coalition's campaign issues.
Maxwell said that state support for KU is declining. He cited a 40-60 costfee ratio, by which students pay 60 percent of the University's operating costs while the state pays 40 percent.
if elected, YOU candidates would lobby the state Legislature to return to a 75-25 cost-fee ratio and increase financial aid distribution to national levels.
Maxwell also said that about 10 percent of undergraduate students receive financial aid, which is half of the national average.
Transportation and parking were also included on YOU's agenda. The coalition promised to work toward the creation of a citywide bus system retaining student control, increasing the number of student spaces in the new parking garage and ensuring that the parking department does not oversell campus lots.
Maxwell said that he was unhappy with the distribution of spaces in the garage, which allocated 300 spaces for students, faculty and staff and left the remaining 500 spaces as metered parking.
YOU's third issue was the creation
"We have to fight for students' rights," he said. "The parking garage by the union just infuriates me. We want to make the parking department more student-friendly."
of a five-year comprehensive campus safety strategy, which would include 24-hour student access to campus buildings such as Watson Library, Fraser Hall and Anschutz Science Library so that students could study in a safe environment late at night. The plan would also increase lighting in some campus parking lots and add more emergency phones on campus.
"We need to get out of the Band-Aid approach and get an actual strategy," Maxwell said.
YOU promised to expand Saferide by lobbying for state support and implementing the Safewalk program approved by the student body last spring. Also, the coalition would try to redistribute KU public safety by putting more officers on bicycles and foot rather than in cars to improve campus safety.
Along with those, YOU would attempt to alter the University's course retake policy so that students would be able to replace the poorer grade with the better grade instead of averaging the two.
Both coalitions plan to continue campaigning on campus during the next two weeks before elections on April 14 and 15.

Dede Seibel, YOU candidate for student body vice president, said that if elected, she would require senators to make weekly visits to student organizations.

Responsibility in drinking characterizes campaign
A doctoral student in psychology will coordinate a campaign to reduce binge drinking at the University of Kansas by publicizing students' responsible behavior.
Jannette Berkley-Patton, a former electrical engineer, has been appointed to the position of full-time project facilitator for a $450,000 grant from the Kansas Health Foundation.
She will develop a campaign based on a program at Northern Illinois University that uses media and advertising to correct false perceptions that a majority of students drink destructively.
Berkley-Patton is studying health promotion and community development at the University. She already has worked as a graduate research associate for other grants financed by the health foundation.
"Jannette is an ideal person for this role based on her knowledge of the University, her previous work with the Kansas Health Foundation and her expertise in health promotions," said Kathleen McCluskey-Fawcett, associate provost and Berkley-Patton's boss
berkley-Patton graduated from the University in 1987 and worked at Allied Signal Aerospace in Kansas City, Kan., and Alcoa in Dallas before returning to KU in 1993 to pursue graduate degrees in human development.
Earlier this year, KU received one of four grants to state universities for a four-year effort to reduce alcohol abuse. Berkley-Patton's appointment is for the duration of the grant.

Bullet blasts through wall following accidental firing
A 27-year-old Lawrence woman was in a room in her home when a bullet passed through one wall and lodged into the opposite wall at 10:30 a.m. Saturday in the 3700 block of Brush Creek Drive, Sgt. George Wheeler of the Lawrence Police Department said.
A 31-year-old Lawrence man was playing with his Ruger, 45-calliber semi-automatic pistol when the weapon accidentally discharged into a wall adjoining the two residences. The gun shot did not injure anyone and police did not arrest the man because they determined that the weapon was fired accidentally. Wheeler said.
The woman's husband and brother-in-law were home when the bullet entered the house.

Gay rights in Kansas focus of Washington fund-raiser
WICHTA — Among gays who have left Kansas for larger cities, there's a joke that goes something like this: they're the state's largest export after wheat.
For untold numbers of gay Kansans, moving to the big city has become a time-worn way of finding a more comfortable home.
David Carlin, 36, the son of former Kansas Gov. John Carlin, left the state to attend Harvard Law School and found opportunities in Washington, D.C., as assistant secretary of agriculture.
"I live in a city where being gay is not considered outside the norm, or at least, it's not treated that way," said Carlin, who now works at a Washington law firm. "We see people here leading very normal lives who happen to be gay. But back home, it's not as easy."
Last month, about 40 gay men with Kansas connections held a fund-raiser in Washington, hoping to make it a little easier for those back home. It was a ground breaking event, of sorts. As far as they know, their effort is unique to Kansas.

Nichols faces death penalty following murder charge
OKLAHOMA CITY — Terry Nichols, serving a life sentence for his federal conviction as a conspirator in the Oklahoma City bombing, was charged Sunday with first-degree murder in state court and could face the death penalty if convicted.
Nichols, 43, is in prison for the deaths of eight law enforcement officers. District Attorney Bob Macy had long promised to file state charges in the deaths of the 160 other people killed when a truck bomb tore through the nine-story office building.
Macy filed 163 counts against Nichols. In addition to the 160 first-degree murder charges, he accused Nichols of one count of first-degree manslaughter for the death of an unborn child, one count of conspiracy to commit murder and one count of aiding and counseling in the placing of a substance or bomb near a public building,
Nichols was convicted in federal court in Denver on Dec. 23,1997 for conspiring to bomb the building and eight counts of involuntary manslaughter in the deaths of eight federal law enforcement officers killed in the April 19, 1995, bombing.

Earthquake topples town, killing 87 in Himalayan hills
BIYASI, India — Hundreds of work crews cleared roads to stranded mountain towns Sunday, and military helicopters evacuated the injured after a powerful earthquake jolted northern India, killing at least 87 people.
The quake, with a magnitude of 6.8 and lasting nearly 40 seconds, was the strongest this century in the earthquake-prone Himalayan foothills, India's seismological department said.
Striking just after midnight, it caught many villagers in their beds, toppling homes, setting off landslides and knocking out electricity in the region.
At least 132 villagers were injured by the earthquake,officials said in Biyasi, a small town on the main mountain road to Nandprayag,the epicenter 190 miles north of New Delhi.
With telephone lines severed, reports of casualties and damage were incomplete nearly a day after the quake. Still, government officials used loudspeakers to caution people not to go back to their damaged houses.

more parking. Huyser said.
"It is a better parking situation, and it has easier access for the public to get to it," Kennedy said. "And it is more building for our dollars with the additional room that will be available."
the new building will have more preschool classroom space, a dance facility, a writing lab, a ceramics lab and a 270-300 seat performance hall, which Huyser said the current center lacked. "My most optimistic thoughts are that we will be under construction by late this year," Huyzer said. "And then taking 18 to 24 months to complete construction — that's my dream."
Initial cost estimates price the project at $5.8 to $6 million. The new center will be city-owned, with about $3.2 million coming from public funds.
Tonight, the commission will renegotiate its contract with the local architectural firm, Glenn Livingood Penzler, 1001 New Hampshire St., and will tell the firm to proceed with drawings for the new center at the 900 New Hampshire street site. The arts center will take up about three lots on the east side of the block.
The city still will own the Carnegie Library and may decide to expand the building, Kennedy said. As for its future occupants, Kennedy said that office space could fill the building.

KU spared from effects of latest computer virus
By Jennifer Roush
jroush @ kanson.com
Kansas staff writer
A cleverly disguised e-mail virus found its way into hundreds of corporate computer systems across the country, but probably won't pose a threat to computers at the University of Kansas.
Systems nationwide crashed or were overloaded yesterday by the "Melissa" computer virus, said Jeff Carpenter, a team leader for the Computer Emergency Response Team at Carnegie Mellon University.
Melissa-infected e-mails include the subject line "Important message from <username>" where <username> is the e-mail address of the sender.
The body of the message says "Here is that document you asked for...don't show it to anyone else. ;-)" and contains an attachment that will open in Microsoft Word 97 or Word 2000.
Once a user opens the attachment, a macro — or script for automating tasks in the creation of Word documents — opens Microsoft's Outlook email program and sends a document to the first 50 people in the user's address book.
The user's computer is then infected, and all new documents created in Word will contain the virus. Also, every time the user opens a Word document that document, and any potentially sensitive material it may contain is sent to the first 50 people in the user's Outlook address book.
CERT said that based on
THE "MELISSA" VIRUS
- Virus contains subject line of "Important Message From <username>", where <username> is sender's e-mail address.
- "Melissa" virus message has a Word document as an attachment
Body of the message reads "Here is that document you asked for...don't show it to anyone else.";-I
The virus can only infect computers with Microsoft Word 97 or Word 2000 and only if the user opens the attachment to the infected e-mail.
■ Microsoft has a patch available at www.microsoft.com/security/bulletins/ms99-002.asp.
Detailed information about the virus and anti-virus programs can be found at www.cert.org/advisories/CA-99-04-Melissa-MacroVirus.html.
reports they had received at their Web site, more than 100,000 computers had been infected by yesterday morning.
Some of the companies affected by the virus were DuPont, Lockheed Martin, Honeywell, Inc. and Compaq Computer Corp.
Eric Lundquist, editor-in-chief of PC Week magazine, said that while the method of transmission isn't new, it is more cunning than other viruses.
"The reason this is spreading so rapidly is that you're getting it from people you know and you trust," Lundquist said. "You should never open documents or attachments from people you don't know, but this is the first one where you need to be careful of opening documents
from people you do know."
Lundquist also said that Microsoft Office, which contains the Word program, is used in about 90 percent of corporations.
Mickey Waxman, statistics consultant/programmer at KU Academic Computing Services, said that companies that have locked themselves into using just one piece of software for email are most vulnerable, he said.
Waxman also said that he didn't think the virus would adversely affect computers at the University of Kansas.
"I don't think KU people will have much of a problem," he said.
The virus spreads best in corporate environments where every employee uses the same word processing and e-mail software.
He said that users were most at risk with personal computers, rather than computers in the University's labs. Each computer's hard drive is purged every week, he said, and none of the computers have address books for specific users.
Julie Loats, KU Web administrator, said that a service alert had been posted to KUfacts, which would link users directly to ACS' Web site. From there, users can find information on how to download an updated version of Command Anti-virus, the University's licensed antivirus software.

Events to explore influence of Latin American culture
By Jamie Knodel
jknodek@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
Latin American Solidarity will sponsor a week-long program to celebrate and explore the culture of countries that continue to shape U.S. culture.
Some students believe that Latin Americans have a growing influence on the culture of the United States.
"The United States is becoming Latinized and the pervasiveness of Latin American cultures is more evident than ever," said Megan Hope, president of Latin American Solidarity and Garden City graduate student.
Hope said that in the past the group had sponsored programs that focused only on Central America but that this was the first year it had extended the week to include all Latin American areas.
"We wanted to recognize areas that have not historically been categorized as part of Latin America," she said.
1999 LATIN AMERICA WEEK:
Hope said Latin America also included areas lying on the U.S. and Mexican border.
Part of the week's program will include a forum to discuss globalization and immigration on the border. The discussion will address economics in the border region and how free trade has affected the people who reside there.
Hope said that she would discuss migration trends from

"It is ironic that with free trade the border has been open to the movement of money but has been closed to the movement of people," she said.
The discussion on the border region will be held at 7 tonight at the Kansas room in the Kansas Union.
Vampiros, a play by Tomas Chacon, Mexico graduate student, will premiere at 8 p.m. Wednesday in 100 Smith Hall. The play is a social commentary on the problems facing modern Latin America.
Chacon said the play addressed issues, including corruption, lies and governmental abuse that were constant problems facing citizens in those countries.
"The inspiration for the play came from the injustice in the people of Latin America," he said.
Women's struggles also will be addressed during the week. Hope said that Central American author and women's rights activist Eugenia Rodriguez would speak about the issues that Latin American women faced.
Coinciding with the 19th anniversary of a former El Salvadorian archbishop's assassination, a discussion on Oscar Romero will be held at 7 p.m. Friday at The Dusty Bookshelf, 708 Massachusetts St.

"They don't think that these things will catch up with them as soon as they do," Laughlin said. "But what they are doing to their bodies will catch up with them."
Karnes said that she expected this program to be successful because prizes associated with O'Donnell and her television show would be awarded throughout the program. The prizes include movies, books and CDs that O'Donnell is associated with and airline vouchers.
A T-shirt autographed by O'Donnell will be given away at the conclusion of the program. Raffle tickets can be purchased tonight for chances to win the T-shirt.
Karnes said that all of the
proceeds raised from the raffle would be donated to Breast Cancer Awareness-Douglas County, a local support group for breast cancer patients.
This is the last program that GSP-Corbin employees and residents will sponsor for Women's History Month. Other programs the halls have been involved with include the purple ribbon campaign that recognized female role models and a discussion on how to be a successful career woman.
Karnes said that the programs were important because they helped to educate women on how to take care of themselves without having to rely on others.
"The motivation behind the programs is to make sure that residents think of themselves as women and for them to realize the types of issues women face," Karnes said.

Congress makes sound decision by passing bipartisan legislation
Now that Congress is no longer immobilized by impeachment, it has begun to focus on mobilizing education.
Recently the both houses of Congress passed a bill that would allow schools to have more flexibility in spending $11 billion of federal money.
This bipartisan legislation is a move in the right direction.
Known as Ed-Flex, this bill would allow all states to waive certain federal restrictions and, according to the bill's sponsors, would give schools more flexibility in educational methods.
Rep. Vito Foster, R-New York, said during a C-SPAN debate that education is a national issue, but a local responsibility. Teachers and principals who see students every day should make decisions about curriculum, not politicians
Passing Ed-Flex was first step toward a national commitment to education.
in Washington. he said.
According to the New York Times, the federal government provides only 7 percent of the national education budget. Education experts say the bill will have little impact on students.
The actual effect of this specific legislation may be debatable, but at least the nation's lawmakers are concerned. Legislation that provides money directly to states and communities makes sense because problems often are solved more efficiently at the local level.
In addition to this legislation, legisla
tors must encourage efforts that increase teacher and classroom quality.
A final concern for education involves societal and parental support. Laws may not solve these problems, but lawmakers' concern could have an influence.
Education always is an issue of national importance, because providing future generations with the best education available ensures the prosperity of the country.
As Congress considers education bills later this year, it must work in the same bipartisan spirit with which it passed Ed-Flex.

Tips help residents weather storms
Lawrence residents heard emergency sirens in Lawrence March 9 as part of Severe Weather Awareness Week. The sirens were meant to remind people to plan ahead for the spring and summer storm season.
Although tornadoes are possible anytime and anywhere, they are more likely in Kansas during the spring and summer months. Knowing where to go and what to do can save lives.
Since 1950, tornadoes have hit Kansas during all months except January.
According to the Wichita Eagle storm survival guide, Kansas ranks third in the country for the average number of tornadoes each year and first for the most powerful twisters.
The National Weather Service recommends these actions to avoid injury:
Weather services suggest taking shelter, awareness.
Stay informed during severe weather through television or battery powered radio. Be familiar with the county to track storm movement.
- Seek shelter in a basement or underground if possible. If not, move to an interior room or hallway on the lowest floor and get under a sturdy piece of furniture.
Stav awav from windows.
Get out of automobiles and do not try to outrun a tornado in a car. Abandon mobile homes and RVs. Find a ditch or low-lying area if there is no shelter.
ally can predict and give adequate warning, but people also should be able to recognize nature's warning signs: a dark-green sky, large hall, strange quiet during a storm, rotating clouds that converge and a rushing sound that turns into a roar.
During lightning, stay inside and away from water and electrical appliances, including telephones and computers.
During the storm season, tornadoes are not the only danger. Flash flooding and lightning kill more people in the United States annually than tornadoes.
Being informed and knowing what to do during severe weather situations is vital. If you didn't take time to formulate a plan during Severe Weather Awareness Week, do it now.

Kevorkian used wrong method in suicide case
Perspective
until his scheduled sentencing on April 14. In return, Kevorkian has promised that he will not break any laws between now and then.
If you have general questions or comments, e-mail the page staff (opinion@kansan.com) or call 864-4924.
By moving from assisted suicide to euthanasia, Kevorkian has made easier a decision that should be very difficult. In addition, I think that legalizing euthanasia would open the homicidal door for some very clever killers. I don't think Kevorkian's stated advantage of efficiency comes close to balancing out these very serious disadvantages.
With people, there are further arguments because people can tell us how much pain they're in, and they can tell us when they want to go. However, I believe that people should take their own lives only in the most permanently hopeless cases, and I don't think that it should be an easy decision.
Kevorkian's attorneys have, of course, promised to appeal the verdict with the utmost zeal, but it sounds like Kevorkian would be imprisoned during the appeals process. It should be interesting to see what happens.
Although I think Kevorkian has a noble battle to fight, I think he chose the wrong battlefield. He basically decided his way was right, despite existing laws. He did his thing, and he asked the Michigan courts to support him. This is a matter that shouldn't be debated after the fact.
Kevorkian should have made his case to the Michigan legislature. If the legislature decided to support him, then Kevorkian would know that indirectly he had the support of the Michigan people. If they didn't support him initially, he should have tried to make his argument more effectively. He could make personal appearances; he could write books; he could run for office; he could do any number of things. But he didn't. He acted on his own judgment, and he asked the jury to say he was right afterward.
I agree with the Youk jury. Kevorkian has gone too far.
The death of Youk marks the first time that Kevorkian actually has taken a person's life himself. Previously, Kevorkian had always used a "suicide machine" that allowed patients to take their own lives. One hundred and thirty people took their own lives with the aid of Kevorkian's machine.
Youk was terminally ill with Lou Gehrig's disease. He was in the latter stages of the disease, unable to move or even swallow. He was terribly afraid of choking to death on his own saliva. If he had thought about it extensively and wanted to end his suffering, I don't see why we shouldn't enable him to do so humanely. We do it for our pets, so why should we deny it to our human loved ones?
Until now, Kevorkian has been able to avoid any serious prison time for his activities. What made him press his luck and move from assisted suicide to euthanasia?
Kevorkian thinks there is no meaningful difference between assisted suicide and euthanasia. He simply thinks that euthanasia is more efficient, and that people should have that option available to them.
I think that Thomas Youk was a good example of when assisted suicide is appropriate.

Oliver vandalism sparks response
In response to recent incidences of possibly racial motivated vandalism at Oliver Hall, the KU Asian American Student Union would like to issue a public statement.
Should it be found that this crime was indeed racially motivated, AASU feels that tolerance in the form of understanding, respecting, and accepting others' culture is the best way to prevent similar and worse crimes from happening in the future.
AASU's mission is to educate the community of other cultures.
While the acts of vandalism reported at Oliver Hall, including a swastika burned into the door of a resident and in a third-floor hallway, have not yet been proven to be racially motivated, it should cause some concern.
Regardless of whose property was defaced and what the motivation was, a swastika burned into a door is disturbing to many and in most cases frightening.
A theatrical troupe from California called hereandnow came to perform powerful skits dealing with racism and other obstacles facing Asian Americans. The final event of the festival was the Taste of Asia show on Saturday.
Cultural awareness was the purpose of this Asian American Festival, March 1 through 6.
Although there is no justification for a panic, the department of Student Housing should not downplay this as merely a random act of vandalism.
Some form of meeting should be created to address any questions or concerns of residents.
The event and the festival ended with a dance party at the ballroom, featuring a live performance by Asian American dance diva Joelyn Enriquez, who reiterated the need for cultural pride and
AASU and an alliance of seven other cultural organizations at the University of Kansas hoped to enrich the community's understanding of their cultures.

AASU hopes that the events of the past week have enriched the community in some way.

Professor clarifies comments
I want to correct a misconstruing of my words by a University Daily Kansan reporter. I was contacted by Kansan reporter Heather Woodward on March 18 for information she was gathering for a story about the tragic murders of Amy Watkins and Mercedes Ares, both of whom happened to be social workers who graduated from the University of Kansas.
Clearly, this reporter wanted to write a story about the dangers of practicing social work in large cities. Although the quote attributed to me is accurate, I did not endorse the thesis. In fact, specifically said that I was sorry to disappoint Heather if she thought she was going to hear otherwise from me.
The fact that these two women were social workers is entirely coincidental. Has anyone over read the news articles about the circumstances of these cases? In both, robbery was the likely motive. Neither of these women were killed while on the job. To yoke these two tragic incidents together and then make the empirical leap to causality is wrong.
Why not just say that being a graduate of the University of Kansas is linked to violence?
Here is what I told the reporter: Social workers work with people who are anxious, sad, confused, angry and vulnerable — in short, they are usually at their worst when social work intervention is necessary. You have to learn to de-escalate that. The School of Social Work at the University of Kansas prepares people for such situations. However, there are many occupations fraught with danger. Children who bring guns to school place teachers at risk, for example. In fact, a social
worker, by virtue of his/her training, may be better prepared than others.
I hope this clarifies this matter.
I was fitted for $65 for parking in front of a water hydrant across from Blake in the dark, when the hydrant was barely visible, as were the marks on that drive.

Parking, Coke delivery debated
And that, too, because I could not find a space anywhere close to Watson, where I had an errand that took me only two minutes. When I appealed to the Parking Department to reduce the amount, they said that such fines were enforceable by the Fire Marshal, although they allowed me to pay it in installments.
So what about the Coca Cola truck that routinely parks at exactly the same spot in broad daylight to unload its stuff? Is it because that job is more important than my dropping off a book at the library or that Coke pays millions of dollars to the University of Kansas?
In another incident, when I went to get a replacement Stouffer Place permit for my new car, the Parking Department insisted that I first return the old sticker from my previous car or I would have to pay for a new one.
I told them that efforts to do so failed because it was so old and stuck so hard, that I could barely get some dust when I tried to scrape it off. They even suggested that I buy some scotch tape and mayonnaise to get it off my old car, because many people have succeeded that way. And remember, the only reason why the Parking Department switched from hang-tags to stickers was to prevent transfer from one car to another.
Finally, as per their suggestion, I got a letter from the buyer of my old car confirming what I said about the sticker, and then they made me pay $3 for another hangtag. They did not care to read the letter, though.

Star Wars hype lands in Kansas
B
Convention draws R2-D2 actor, fans
Kenny Baker is the actor who played R2-D2 in Star Wars. Contributed photo
By Dan Curry
dcurry@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
R2.D2 is smarter than C.3PO.
So concluded an authority no less than Kenny Baker, the actor who squeezed inside the tubby little droid of Star Wars fame — the beeping, chirping confidant of Luke Skywalker.
Baker did not beep or squeak at Saturday's Planet Comic comic book convention at the Overland Park International Trade Center.
With a brace of security guards in full-body Klingon apparel brooding in the background, Baker paced across the stage in a maroon turtleneck and navy pants and fielded questions from a buzzing audience of rhaponic Star Wars fans, comic book traders and memorabilia collectors, who had each paid $8 to attend.
"He's a clever little fellow," Baker said, responding to an audience question. "[C-3PO] thinks he's smarter than me, but he's not really."
Baker, who will reprise his role as R2-D2 in the forthcoming prequel The Phantom Menace, is the only actor to return from the original Star Wars cast.
The R2-D2 gig is a hard role to beat. Baker said.
"You don't want to be looking for work all the time," Baker said. "I'm not contracted. They just presume
I'll be there."
Baker said it was a close fit inside R2-D2 for him but that the costume was a cakewalk compared to an Ewok's, another role Baker took in Return of the Jedi.
The Ewok costume, which included layers of pajamas, foam rubber, fur skin, beats and bullets, was unbearable. Baker said.
"If you fell over, you couldn't get up again," he said.
During the shooting of the movie, the set was full of sweating, tumbling Ewoks, he said.
"I don't think I could be an Ewok again if they paid me," he said.
While Baker was speaking, Star Wars collectibles were being bought and sold for hundreds of dollars.
A toy AT-AT, an Imperial assault walker, in the original box was priced at $150. A Hain Solo figure cost $55, R2-D2 was $20.
Baker, an English actor, said he left school at age 16 and began performing in cabaret shows. Later, he had roles in Time Bands, Amadeus and, most recently, Willow.
Dean Phillips, owner of Krypton Comics in Omaha, Neb., said that he had been selling a lot of Star Wars memorabilia.
"A lot of that Star Wars stuff used to be on clearance," he said. "A lot of times it devalues. It can double the next day if it's a popular item."
Phillips said he had sold Star Wars toys for as much as $600 at conventions and other collectibles for as much as $3,000.
After his talk, Baker autographed items for fans, selling his signature for $6 a shot to people who had waited an hour in line.
A star-struck fan leaned in close to Baker and said, "You were in some of the greatest movies ever made."
Eating a pumpernickel bagel as he signed the man's photograph, Baker nodded devoutly, and then asked his assistant if she was keeping track of how many photos they'd sold.
Students, staff prepare museum nature workshops
Edited by Kelli Roybern

Kansas staff writer
Spring has sprung at the University of Kansas Natural History Museum.
The workshops will cover topics such as fish, fossils and mammals and will range in price from $10 to $16 and meet at Dyche Hall.
The first of the museum's Spring Weekend workshops were offered during spring break and will continue through May 9.
Most of the people who present work
shops are graduate students who work at the museum with some teachers and museum staff, said Dena Podrebarac, public education specialist at the museum.
Cory Ruedebusch, Wichita graduate student, will present "Mammals All Set to Get Wet," from 1:30 to 3 p.m., Sunday, April 18. The workshop is about mammals that live in the water year round.
"My favorite thing to teach about is mammals," she said. "So if a mammal opportunity comes up, they look at me."
Ruedebusch also said that she
enjoyed working with children and would like to become a science teacher after she finished her master's degree.
Since 1968, the museum's education department has offered the workshops every year, said Podrebarac.
She said that the workshops usually were aimed at children between the ages of 4 and 12, but some of them required adult-child pairs.
The museum sends a brochure called "Good Stuff" to museum members and people who have participated in past workshops. Podrebara said that the museum also relied on word-of-mouth
publicity to inform them.
Chris Fletitz, Park Ridge, III., graduate student, will present a field trip program called "Stream Search," which involves a field trip to a local stream to catch and study fish.
He said that he had been conducting the workshops on and off for about three years.
"It's good experience working with the public, even if it is just kids," he said.
For more information about the workshops, call 864-4173.

Paraguayans cheer leader's resignation
The Associated Press
ASUNCION, Paraguay — With hopes for the end of a violent political crisis, Paraguayans threw a huge street party to celebrate their president's surprise resignation.
Some 60,000 people waved flags, shot fireworks and sung the national anthem late Sunday in the same plaza that last week saw bloody riots between supporters and opponents of outgoing President Raul Cubas.
"The violence has come to an end and so has the fear," the new president, Luis Gonzalez Macchi, said after receiving the gold scepter and sash Sunday night during his inauguration.
Only an hour earlier, Cubas, flanked by his wife and close aides, announced his resignation on television, apologizing for the violence.
1 will not be responsible for the spilling
of more innocent blood," Cubas said. "I'm not leaving a thief or corrupt. I'm leaving in hopes it will help the national reconciliation at this sensitive moment."
The change was the latest chapter in the worst political turmoil Paraguay has seen since a foiled 1964 coup attempt. Violent protests flared last week about an impachment trial of Cubas on abuse of power charges.
After Cubas' announcement, blue and red fireworks went off and firefighters cooled the celebrating crowds with hoses in the summer Southern Hemisphere night.
Many hoped the resignation meant the unrest was at an end.
"This is a democratic and legitimate government," said one celebrating man, Roberto Mendez. "Thank God Cubas resigned."
Porfiria Caballero couldn't find strength to cheer.
She said she lost a son. Jose Luis, 25, in street fighting Friday between Cubas' supporters and demonstrators that killed three others and left more than 100 injured in the worst day of violence.
"I've just finished burying my son. Neither this government nor any other is going to bring him back," she said.
Violence began last Tuesday when camouflaged gunmen shot and killed Vice President Luis Maria Argana. Police have no suspects in the assassination.
Blaming Cubas' government for indirectly causing the killing, Paraguay's lower house impeached the former president on Wednesday. A day later, his trial began amid growing public demands for his ouster.
The 55-year-old Cubas won the cleanest election in Paraguayan history last May, capturing more than 50 percent of the vote.
He sparked an uproar of criticism with

U.S. welfare rolls shrinking
Number of minorities on aid has increased
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Across the country, Caucasians are leaving welfare more quickly than African Americans, Hispanic Americans and Native Americans, raising crucial but sensitive questions about whether the ambitious overhaul of the U.S. welfare system is leaving minorities behind.
A strong economy and tough new rules have combined to move people of all races off welfare in unprecedented numbers.
But across the country, the proportion of racial minorities on assistance has grown, in some cases dramatically, according to a 50-state Associated Press survey.
In 33 of 42 states, the proportion of Caucasian welfare recipients had dropped since 1994, when caseloads peaked nationally, the AP survey found.
In the other eight states, either the number of minorities is too small to be meaningful or such statistics are not kept.
In Ohio, African Americans on welfare now outnumber Caucasians for the
first time. In 1995, 54 percent of people on welfare were Caucasian, 42 percent African-American. By this year, 53 percent were African-American and 42 percent Caucasian.
Compared with Caucasians on welfare, African Americans and Hispanic Americans begin with a stack of disadvantages, census statistics indicate.
In 1997, 30 percent of Caucasians on welfare lacked a high school diploma, compared with 43 percent of African Americans and 64 percent of Hispanic Americans. Just 29 percent of Caucasians on welfare lived in a central city or an area where at least one in five were poor. For African Americans, it was about 68 percent, for Hispanic Americans about 60 percent.
Those on welfare also are more concentrated in large cities.
A paper prepared by the Council of Economic Advisers but not released publicly notes the proportion of Hispanic Americans and African Americans in the nation overall is growing, explaining some of the welfare shift.
Hilary Shelton of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People worried the shift would allow racist stereotypes to gain new momentum.
"People begin to argue there’s nothing you can do about those people," he said.
U.S. Supreme Court to rule on school fees
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court agreed yesterday to decide whether state-run universities could dedicate a portion of the activity fees collected from all students even those who object—to subsidize groups that pursue political and ideological goals.
The justices said they would review rulings that barred the University of Wisconsin from using a portion of the activity fees it collects from every student to finance such groups.
A federal trial judge and an appeals court ruled that the subsidies unlawfully force some students to subsidize views they find objectionable. The lower courts barred the university from using fees collected from objecting students, ruling that to do so would violate their freespeech rights.
Several law students had challenged the funneling of student-activity money to 18 organizations on the Madison campus.
organizations significantly adds to the burdening of the students' free-speech rights," a three-judge panel of the 7th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled last year.
The appeals court panel's ruling did not shield objecting students from paying any activity fees but gave them an alternative. They can identify the political or ideological groups they do not want to support and have their fees reduced on a prorated basis.
"The forced funding of such
Among the groups objected to in the 1996 lawsuit against the university were Students of National Organization for Women, International Socialist Organization, Campus Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual Center and an AIDS support network.
The nation's highest court ruled in 1995 that public universities and colleges cannot create a "public forum" for students and then refuse to subsidize some student groups because of their viewpoint. That decision said the University of Virginia wrongly had refused to subsidize a student-run Christian magazine.

NEW YORK — With tensions running high between police and the African-American community, jury selection began yesterday in the trial of four white officers accused of torturing a Haitian immigrant.
Civil rights activists — who had warned of protests — and the defenders were absent as prospective jurors were ushered into federal court in Brooklyn to fill out a long questionnaire on what they know about the beating of Abner Louima.
The atmosphere surrounding the case has been made even more volatile by the Feb. 4 killing of another Black man, Amadou Diallo, an unarmed street vendor from West Africa who died in a hail of 41 bullets fired by four white officers looking for a rape suspect. The officers said they thought Diallo was reaching for a gun in front of his home in the Bronx.
Both cases have led to daily demonstrations in front of police headquarters in Manhattan. Several prominent figures, including former Mayor David Dinkins, actress Saranandon and NAACP leader Kweizi Mfume, have been arrested for blocking the entrance. Yesterday morning, 166 people were arrested.
Defense attorneys in the Louima case unsuccessfully tried to have the trial moved because of intense publicity and the links community leaders have made between his case and that of Diallo.
Last month, U.S. District Judge Eugene Nickerson concluded that "the overall nature of the publicity cannot be characterized as inflammatory."
The questionnaire represents the first stage of a screening process expected to take several days, if not weeks. Nickerson has indicated he hopes to have a jury picked for opening arguments on April 20. The questionnaire was not made public.
The four officers are accused of violating Louima's civil rights by abusing him after his arrest in a street melee on the night of Aug. 9, 1997.
The most explosive allegation is that Officer Charles Schwarz held down a handcuffed Louima while Officer Justin Volpe, believing the Haitian immigrant had punched him, rammed a stick into his rectum and mouth in the station-house bathroom.
In addition, Volpe, 26, Schwarz, 33, and two other officers, Thomas Bruder, 32, and Thomas Wiese, 35, are charged with beating Louima in a patrol car on the way to the stationhouse.

KU basketball assistant likely to be named men's coach for Notre Dame
The Associated Press
SOUTH BEND, Ind. — Kansas assistant Matt Doherty, rarely mentioned as a candidate for the Notre Dame coaching vacancy until this past weekend, reportedly will be named to take over the Irish program on Tuesday.
Notre Dame officials scheduled a 4 p.m.
EST Tuesday news conference to name the
new coach, but declined to say Monday
who it is.
But WNDU on Monday night cited what it described as a well-connected source at the Final Four who said Doherty's hire was a done deal. ESPN also reported on its Web page that Doherty had won the job.
Doherty, 37, considered playing at Notre Dame but was recruited to play at North Carolina by then-Tar Heels assistant Roy Williams. The 6-foot-8 Doherty played for

Gonzaga coach Dan Monson and Xavier coach Skip Prosser were thought to be frontrunners for the job after meeting with Notre Dame officials during the weekend
where three years before coming to Kansas. During his seven seasons as Williams's assistant coach at Kansas, he has helped the Jayhawks sign eight McDonald's All-Americans.
Gonzaga athletic director Mike Roth said Monday that Notre Dame officials met with Monson on Saturday but didn't know whether they planned to meet again. He did not return messages Monday night after Notre Dame announced plans to name a new coach.
"I would have rather not gotten the call," Roth said. "I'd rather keep him, but I can't say I'm surprised (that Notre Dame asked permission to speak with Monson). If I'm an AD out there, I want to look at Dan Monson with what he's able to do at Gonzaga."
Monson told the Spokane SpokesmanReview in a story published Sunday that he spoke with Notre Dame athletic director Mike Wadsworth in St. Petersburg, Fla., site of the Final Four. Monson has declined to comment further on his interview.
Delaware's Mike Brey, Siena's Paul Hewitt and Princeton's Bill Carmody all have interviewed with the Irish since MacLeod resigned under pressure March 9.
Prosser was expected to meet with Wadsworth on Monday, but Xavier athletic director Mike Bobinski said he didn't know whether that happened or if Notre Dame had extended an offer.
Uttah coach Rick Majerus was considered the frontrunner to take the job but dropped out last week amid reports that school administrators rejected his candidacy because he didn't fit the Notre Dame image.

The Chicago Tribune reported Monday that Prosser was interviewed by school president the Rev. Edward A. Malloy, Wadsworth and associate athletic director Bubba Cunningham on Sunday. The Rev. E. William Beauchamp, the executive vice president, was said to have taken part via telephone.

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — Connecticut spoiled the Duke Invitational.
The Huskies beat top-ranked Duke, the team no one thought could be beaten in this NCAA tournament, for their first national championship in their first Final Four appearance.
Last night's 77-74 thriller ended Duke's 32-game winning streak, kept the Blue Devils from an NCAA record for wins in a season, and prevented them from ending the 90s with a third national championship.
Richard Hamilton led third-ranked Connecticut (34-2) with 27 points, but it was some tremendous team defense and a big shot and free throws by Khalid El-Amin that won it all.
Trajan Langdon led Duke (37-2) with 25 points, but Duke's last two possessions ended with him making turnovers. And so the Blue Devils fell short of what everyone had expected — another title.
These were the only two teams to hold the No.1 ranking this season, and they played a final game worthy of the two best.
"We lost to a great basketball team. We were beaten tonight, we didn't lose," Duke coach Mike Krzewski said.
Connecticut was able to keep the game at a pace it liked even though most everyone thought the Huskies should try to slow the tempo. The quick pace made for what seemed like constant lead changes, the last coming with 3:50 to play when Hamilton's free throws gave the Huskies a 70-68 lead.
Hamilton hit a 2-pointer 21 seconds later for a five-point lead,and suddenly, Duke was playing a role it had very little experience at this season — the chaser.
"We're happy as heck, and we truly believed we could beat them," UConn coach Jim Calhoun said. "I said before the game that we hadn't played our best yet. If you count character, I think tonight we did."
William Avery's free throws with 54 seconds left got the Blue Devils within 75-74. El-Amin, whose driving basket had given Connecticut the 75-72 lead, missed on a drive with 24 seconds left and Duke had life.
Langdon, the fifth-year senior who made the Final Four in his last chance, tried to get by Ricky Moore, one of the game's best defenders. Langdon spun but Moore was there. Langdon took
The Blue Devils went for the final shot without calling a time-out.
"We really worked hard as a team," Moore said. "I wanted to come out and prove myself. I wanted to show I have an offensive game as well as a defensive game. I wanted to shock the world."
Al-Emin made two free throws with 5.2 seconds left to get the lead back to three, and Langdon's last chance at tying the game ended when he fell near the three-point line and lost control of the ball.

the field and had seven rebounds, finished as the tournament's leading scorer with 145 points in the six games, a 24.1 average. He was the tournament's Most Outstanding Player.
Krzyzewski is second on the NCAA tournament career victory list with 49.
One of those was in the 1990 regional final when Christian Laettner's buzzer beater on an inbounds play gave the Blue Devils a 79-78 overtime win against Connecticut.
There was no buzzer beater this time.
The Huskies finally got revenge in the last tournament of the decade.

Border series adds strength to Kansas's slate
By Matt Tait
mtait@kansan.com
kansas sportwriter
Maybe the Kansas baseball team hasn't scored 50 runs in one game as Nebraska did earlier this month, but they also haven't played Chicago State, who suffered the record-breaking defeat to the Cornhuskers.
Instead of scheduling weaker teams to fill voids in the heart of its schedule, Kansas traditionally plays additional series against Big 12 Conference foes.
Big 12 baseball teams play one another for one series each season. In addition to regularly scheduled conference games against Missouri and Kansas State, the Jayhawks annually welcome their rivals to town for nonconference games because coach Bobby Randall said that those were games fans wanted to see.
That is exactly what will happen this evening as the Missouri Tigers come to Hoglund Ballpark for the first game of a two-game series.
Tenight's matchup at 7 will mark the 285th meeting between the border rivals.
"As a coach I enjoy playing quality teams, and I think that's what the players wanted as well," Randall said. "So we chose to play Big 12 schools that provide a lot of emotional excitement rather than Prairie View A&M."
The Hawks, 9-18 overall and 4-11 in Big 12, as well as Missouri, 14-12, 3-9, are pursuing the eighth spot in the conference standings with hopes of packing for the postseason. Players and coaches alike said that even though these were non-conference games, they were still important.
"We go into every game not worried about whether it's conference or not," outfielder Brett Kappelmann said. "But especially against Missouri, who is a big rival, we have the confidence to do it and really want to win these games."
Randall said that everyone knew that conference games were more important because they affect the standings, but he also said that the team approached the games with the same attitude.
"No question, conference games mean more," Randall said. "But I think competitively we're a lot stronger team and every guy is playing better than he was a couple of weeks ago."
Up and down the entire roster the Jahyhawks are breaking out of slumps or continuing streaks.
Kappelmann has soared toward the top of the conference standings in batting average. He is in third place with a 434 average and has a 12-game hitting streak.
Shortstop John Nelson has continued his terror, contributing RBI, runs and solid defense.
Catcher Shane Wedd broke out of an early March slump and hit .444 over the last week.
Missouri comes to Lawrence after dropping two of three to Texas A&M last weekend.
The Tigers are led by the offensive power of senior Aaron Wilson, who is hitting 366, and freshman Ryan Stegall, who has nine home runs on the year.
Junior Rusty Philbrick is scheduled to start game one for the 'Hawks and on the hill for the Tigers will be Chris George.

Swimmer upset with NCAA tourney performance

What's been known as the fastest meet in the world was not so for junior swimmers Brandon Chestnut and Tyler Painter.

"I didn't have the meet I thought I would," Painter said. "Tenth place is not a good swim."
Painter said he did not feel relaxed and approached his races more tentatively than usual.
Painter, who placed third at last year's NCAA Championships and is ranked 16th in the world in the 1,650-yard freestyle, placed tenth at this year's NCAA Championships in the 1,650 and 26th in both the 500-yard freestyle and the 400-vard individual medley.

While Painter said he wanted to swim faster, he received an All-America honor for his performance in the 1,650-yard freestyle. He said he was pleased with the award but that his disappointing races shadowed the honor.
Kempf said he was still proud of Painter's and Chestnut's performances.
"Tyler's biggest problem is that he carries a tremendous amount of pressure on himself and he puts most of it on himself," Kempf said.
"I thought both Brandon and Tyler put in a great effort. They gave it the best shot they could." Kempf said. "I'm disappointed for them not in them. They didn't let anybody down."
Kempf, on the other hand, said he thought that Painter put too
Although Painter's disappointment with the meet stands out, he said he already was thinking of ways in which he could improve.

"Next year, I'll prepare a little more mentally," he said. "I'll realize that I had a bad meet and that it can happen, and I'll be more relaxed."
Painter also said he thought that his two-meet suspension earlier in the season had no affect on his performance at the national championships. Chestnut was not available for comment.

Stay on a steady course in August, and focus on details in September. Repair your security net in November and try a crazy friend's suggestion in February. All year you'll do best using old skills.
Aries (March 21-April 19): Today is a 6.
Make sure you get the instructions right so you don't have to do a job again because of a silly misunderstanding. That will be happening all over the place, not only to you. Repeat back what other people say to make sure you've heard right.

Carder point 22 says:
Twin twice before traveling far today. Looks like you might find what you need closer to home. You'd have to add the expense of the journey, of course, and that might eat up all your profits. It looks like quick action is required, but stability is much more important.
Leo [July 23-Aug. 22]: Today is a 6.
Think twice before risking your money today. Looks like a long shot is not a good risk. What you see and what you get may be two different things. You'd make a better investment if you spent the money on your own education, especially right now.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sep. 22): Today is a 6.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23); Today is a 6.

Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Today is a 6.
Today you may feel compelled to get everything done perfectly. It's a noble feeling, but not always one you can carry through. Sometimes being complete means accepting things the way they are.
Saaittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Today is a 6.
If you've been making a lot of big claims lately, today you could have your bluff called. Somebody might ask you to prove you can do what you say you can. Truth is, you probably understated your abilities, so this might not be much of a competition.

OK, so something you try today doesn't work. Don't fret or make a big deal out of it because you're really lucky right now. If you brood over the one little item that got batched up, you might miss all the other magnificent things that are happening around you.
Structure and routines are important, of course, but you don't want to get locked in a box. Today you can make sure that doesn't happen by speaking up. Your input is important. You can see things the others are missing, and that's especially true right now.

Coffee, 6 feet 3 inches and 265 pounds, hit just 42 homers in 420 games in five minor-league seasons. He was picked in the 10th round of the 1994 draft.

The Royals released right-handed pitcher Roland De La Maza, who was obtained from Cleveland in a trade for infielder Bip Roberts in 1997. He pitched one game for the Royals, his

Also released was right-hander Scott Taylor of Overland Park. Taylor, 32, was signed to pitch for Class AA Wichita last year and went 7-3.
Taylor, a pro since 1989, pitched in three big-league games in 1995 for the Texas Rangers and went 1-2.
Missouri uncertain about team leader
Corby Jones, the quarterback who led Missouri's resurgence from a 3-8 record his freshman season to an 8-4 mark and a bowl victory last year, is gone. And there is no obvious successor.
COLUMBIA, Mo. — A new era is about to begin for the Missouri Tigers.
As the Tigers take to the field for spring practice, which will be capped by the Black and Gold Game on April 17, the question on everybody's mind
is who will emerge from the four-man quarterback derby.
Will it be junior Ryan Douglass, 0-for-8 passing in his MU career? Sophomore Jim Dougherty, who has attempted just two passes? Redshirt freshman Kirk Farmer? Or sophomore Kurt Propst, who missed last season with a broken leg?
"I'm planning on hanging right with
the quarterbacks during these practices," coach Larry Smith said yesterday. "It's very difficult to work four or even three quarterbacks. That's why I would hope by the end of spring that we're down to two guys who will be getting almost all of the reepitations."

In addition, heralded freshman Darlus Outlaw will enter the mix in the fall.
Philadelphia's Lindros suspended for penalty
Smith will look to the defense to carry the Tigers until the offense matures.
All-American Devin West, who ran for 1,578 yards last year, also is gone. Three tailbacks, senior DeVaughn Black, sophomore Zain Glimore and junior Ricardo Rhodes, will vie to replace him.
The quarterback situation mirrors the inexperience of the entire offensive unit.
DETROIT — Philadelphia Flyers center Eric Lindros was suspended for two games by the NHL for high-sticking and cutting Petr Nelred of the New York Rangers.
Nedved had three facial cuts after being hit by Lindros's stick during Philadelphia's victory on Saturday. Lindros was given a double-minor penalty. The suspension will cost Lindros $86,458.33 in salary.

Future Jayhawks add to accolades
By Kevin C. Wilson
Kansan sportswriter
University of Kansas signee Nick Collison culminated a busy week of basketball on Sunday when he participated in the Nike Hoop Summit in Tampa, Fla.
Collison and fellow Kansas signee Kirk Hinrich helped the USA's Men's Junior National Select team defeat the International Select Team 107-95 in front of a sellout crowd of 3,432 at the Martinez Center.
Hinrich, 8-6, 175-pound senior guard at Sioux City West High School, scored seven points on three-of-three shooting from the field and dished out two assists in 10 minutes.
Collison, a 6-foot-9, 230-pound senior forward at Iowa Falls High School, scored six points and grabbed five rebounds in 21 minutes before fouling out.
"I was really excited that we won," Hinrich said. "I was pleased with the way we adjusted to the way they played."
Kansas coach Roy Williams watched the game from the stands with his wife, Wanda, and North Carolina coach Bill Guthridge.
Earlier in the week Collison and Hinrich were named co-winners of Iowa's Mr. Basketball Award after leading their respective teams to state titles. It was the second time in 19 years that two players tied for the award that honors the best player in the state. Collison averaged 22 points and 10 rebounds to lead Iowa Falls to their second straight Class 2A state championship. Hinrich averaged 23 points and six assists for the Class 4A state champions, Sioux City West.
On Wednesday, Collision scored 16 points to help the West team defeat the East 141-128 in the prestigious McDonald's All-American Game at Hilton Coliseum in Ames, Iowa. He scored 14 of his 16 points in the second half, shot eight-of-nine from the floor and had seven rebounds in front of his home state crowd.
"The first half they were playing man-to-man. I wasn't getting open at all." Collison said. "The second half, they went zone and I got it going a bit."
fans when he returns next year as a Jayhawk.
Although he received a hero's welcome on Wednesday, Collision doesn't expect the same response from the Iowa State
"I know I'll get boored here next time," Collison said. "Hopefully I'll get a victory."
■ On Sunday, Collison was also named second-team Parade All-American, and fellow Jayhawk signee Andrew Gooden was chosen for the third-team. The two future Jayhawks will have a chance to get to know each other on April 8 when
Kansas senior guard Ryan Robertson was also busy last week.
they are both scheduled to play at the Capital Classic in Washington.
Robertson: Finished fourth in a three-point contest
On Friday night,
Robertson scored 10 points to help the
West squad defeat the East 93-86 in the
37th annual National Association
of Basketball
Coaches 'All-Star game at the Sun Dome in Tampa, Fla.
"It was fun, and I had a real good time," Robertson said. "I thought I played pretty well. In this all-star game, there were a lot of guys who passed the ball, and we really played good basketball."
Thursday night, Robertson finished fourth out of eight competitors in the National Car Rental men's three-point shooting contest at the Ice Palace in Tampa, Fla.
"I had a great time," Robertson said. "I caught a little cold streak in the second round, or I could have gone to the finals.
Jason Terry of Arizona defeated Pat Bradley of Arkansas 15-12 in the men's final, and Minnesota's Quincy Lewis placed third overall. Robertson finished ahead of Stanford's Arthur Lee, Kentucky's Scott Padgett, Grinell College's Jeff Clement and George Washington's Shawna Rogers.
Robertson said that although he didn't win the contest, he was enamored to participate against such a talented group of players.
"Just to be considered in that class is quite an honor," Robertson said.

Jayhawks look for victory, mental boost
By Brandon Stinnett Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas softball team is looking to break out of its slump today when it plays host to NAIA powerhouse Oklahoma City in a doubleheader at Javahawk Field.
The Jayhawks (14-17) are coming off two losses in their Big 12 Conference opener to ninth-ranked Oklahoma Sunday in Norman. Kansas has dropped six of its last eight games, but freshman Shelly Mueller said the team was showing improvement.
"We've been doing well in just about every aspect of our game," Musser said. "There's just been a few key mistakes we've made that have hurt us."
Sophomore pitcher Jessi Kowal said she thought the Jayhawks had the ingredients of a winning team.
"I don't think there's anything missing," Kowal said. "I think
The Jayhawks' offensive production has been on the rise. In the past eight games, Kansas has batted .258 as a team, 18 points higher then its .240 season average. Musser has been leading the Jayhawks' offensive onslaught, batting .346 during the past eight games and .309 overall. She also leads the team in stolen bases with 24.
it's just a matter of putting it all together at one time."
"Hopefully what I'm doing will help the rest of the team get better." Musser said.
Softball
The Kansas pitchers, on the other hand, have had problems with consistency.
"Jessi has been struggling a little bit, but she threw a good game for us against Oklahoma," coach Tracy Bunge said. "Sarah (Workman) has also been struggling. It's safe to say both our pitchers have not been 100 percent mentally. It's important for them to both have good games (today)."
Bunge said Kansas would need a complete performance to beat Oklahoma City.
"They are a very solid team, a perennial NAIA national champion," Bunge said. "We will have to play very, very well in order to beat them."
Oklahoma City won't be Kansas' only nemesis today. The Jayhawks also will be batting mental obstacles because of their recent slump.
"I don't think there is any doubt the team is struggling with their confidence." Bunge said. "But I don't think they have lost faith."
Oklahoma City (36-7) already has picked up wins against Oklahoma and Oklahoma State
this season. Bunge said two wins today would give the Jayhawks a big mental lift heading into Saturday's showdown with Missouri.
"As far as confidence goes, two wins would be a big booster for us." Bunge said.
It will be the Jayhawks' first home game since March 16 when they split two games with Arkansas. Musser said the team was glad to be home after the long road trip.
"Playing at home gives us a big advantage," Musser said. "We have a lot of fans that can give us a big psychological edge."
After Oklahoma City, Kansas will face Missouri, Baylor and Texas Tech in five consecutive Big 12 games. Bunge said this was the perfect time for the Jayhawks to turn things around.
"We have to keep fighting," she said. "I think we are ready to go on a big winning streak."
Mud leaves NASCAR fans stuck in parking lot
— Edited by Darrin Peschka
The Associated Press
FORT WORTH, Texas — Many NASCAR fans spent as much as 71/2 hours trying to get away from the Texas Motor Speedway's muddy parking lots more than twice the time it took Terry Labonte to win the Primestar 500.
corridor.
After two years of complaints, drivers said the racing surface at the $165 million facility — where water seeped through the asphalt last year — was improved. But fans in the parking lots on Sunday weathered puddles and knee-deep mud following heavy thundershowers.
But it was the cluster of cars stranded in some lots that frustrated people even more.
"Once you get an accident, trying to get it flowing again is difficult." she said.
"The worst part was just plain old waiting. Not moving, not knowing what was going on, and not knowing why we weren't moving," said Sandra Young of Longview, who said her vehicle made less than a foot of headway in more than 51/2 hours. "There were people standing outside of their vehicles ... trying to see what was going on."
Even at the best of times, the traps empties from only three exits onto only two highways. Construction to widen one of the highways is supposed to be finished later this year.
Discontented fans, who had no lavatory facilities available, used the field. After several hours, folks stranded without supplies were offering money for beer, soda and water.
Track spokeswoman Sarona Winfrey said a two-car accident and a broken recreational vehicle clogged the main
Some people went so far as to build a bonfire in the parking lot.
"They were pouring straight diesel fuel on it because they were bored," Young said. "It started with three pieces of newspapers."
One conspiracy buff, who didn't give his name, joked that he thought the NASCAR fans might be corralled in the parking lot as part of an "experiment."
The Fort Worth Police, who directed traffic at the track, had no log records of any delays, wrecks or even of the bonfire, which smoked for several hours.
But Lt. Ric Clark said there was a shooting on the track campground. Allen R. Davies of Livingston, was charged with
attempted murder in the shooting of Brvan Austin of Mesquite.
Austin, shot in the left shoulder, was taken by helicopter from the track to a nearby hospital. He was released Monday.
Police said they also were not familiar with an earlier bottleneck on a track walkway.
People were sardined into a small walkway between a chain-link fence and the grandstand until the claustrophobic crush ripped the fence from the ground and thousands of people poured through the opening.
Winfrey said an overwhelming number of fans tried to use the same walkway immediately after the race.
"That walkway was there last year and not a problem. It was a problem this year," she said, adding that officials will consider blocking the area for the next Winston Cup race, forcing people to go in other directions.
Attendance Sunday was second only to crowds for race at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. But, Indy fans don't usually endure as long a wait as those in Texas.
"They also have roadways. We only have roadways on three sides," Winfrey said.

WINTER HAVEN, Fla. — Johnny Damon hit a two-run homer, Mike Sweeney had a solo shot and the Kansas City Royals won their 19th game of spring training, 4-2 yesterday against the Cleveland Indians
The Associated Press
Kansas City, which finished 161/2 games behind Cleveland last year in the American League Central, went 5-1 against the Indians during the exhibition season. The teams next play April 12 in Cleveland's home opener at Jacobs Field.
Before the game, Cleveland manager Mike Hargrove announced Jaret Wright will start the Indians' opener against Anaheim next Tuesday.
R
Royals
"It's a nice surprise," said Wright, who is from Southern California. "Now I can tell my friends which game to go to."
Damon connected in the first inning off losing pitcher Dave Burba, who gave up three runs and four
nits in six innings. Sweeney hit his first home run of the spring in the seventh off Ron Villone.
Kansas City starter Brian Barber got his second win this spring, allowing two runs and four hits in five innings.
mings Robbie Alomar went 2-for-3 with two RBIs for Cleveland, raising his average to .417.
age to 41.
Hargrove said he picked Wright to start the opener against Burba because he didn't want Wright and Bartolo Colon pitching back to back and wanted the pair in the top three spots in the rotation.
■ Burba missed a chance to start on opening day last year when he was traded from Cincinnati to Cleveland the day before the season started. He is now scheduled to face the Royals in the Indians' home opener. "I'll be a little nervous, I'll tell you that," he said.
The Royals previous best spring was 17 wins (1977, '88).
David Justice, sidedeline the past week with a strained rib muscle, swung a bat Monday and felt better, Hargrove said.
HAVANA — Baseball people of all sorts were buzzing yesterday in the waiting area at Jose Marti International Airport. The No.1 topic? Trying to set up more games between major league teams and the Cubans.
The Associated Press
Clubs eager for more Cuba games
League presidents, owners, general managers, scouts and union executives all seemed to agree, for once: The Baltimore Orioles' weekend trip to Havana worked so well that more clubs should follow.
"We will start talking soon about doing it again next year," said former infielder Tony Bernazard, now at the players' union.
Cuban sports officials also seemed satisfied with the first visit by a major league team in 40 years. They appear willing to make this an annual event and no doubt would love to have the New York Yankees, a popular team among fans on the communist island.
"To come down here and experience it, just to get to see and understand the mystique of Cuba, it was worth it." Montreal General Manager Jim Beattie said. "Having done it once, the next time you won't have that fear or awe."
Almost all 30 major league teams sent a representative or two to see the Orioles beat a Cuban all-star team 3-2 in 11 innings Sunday. Tampa Bay Devil Rays owner Vince Naimoli hopes the trip helps him understand more about star pitcher Rolando Arrojo, a Cuban defector.
"I'll have a conversation with him." Naimoli said. "I'm a great student of learning by walking
AL President Gene Budig and NL President Len Coleman liked what they saw. So did Toronto Blue Jays scout Bob Engle.
around, and I'll talk about the thhus1s saw."
"I think any time you get to see guys who don't have a lot of exposure, it's good," Engle said. "You got to see it of pitching. It gives you a good measure."
with several rival scouts sitting near him waiting for a charter flight to Miami. Engle was hesitant to identify the Cubans he liked. But asked whether he thought some of them had big league potential, he firmly said yes.
Jose Contreras pitched eight scoreless innings, allowed only two hits and struck out 10. Third baseman Omar Linares, considered the island's best player at 32, hit a tying single in the eighth inning that made Cuban President Fidel Castro grin from a front-row seat behind the plate.
Several top Cubans did not face Baltimore because they are playing in the series between the Havana Industriales and Santiago for the country's league championship.
inaustriales shortstop German Mesa, whose talent kept Rey Ordonez on the bench before the future Gold Glover defected and joined the New York Mets, may play when the Cubans visit Baltimore's Camden Yards on May 3.
Orioles owner Peter Angelos, who spent several years trying to arrange this series, was most pleased.
"It met and exceeded my expectations," he said. "It was a perfect
game, because we won and the Cuban team showed that they are capable of competing with a major league team."
Angelos and most of the major league personnel who made the trip got to meet Castro. Engle and some others even got an autograph from the 73-year-old leader, who wore a suit rather than his usual combat fatigues during Sunday night's reception at the national palace.
With commissioner Bod Selig, Castro remembered his days of pitching while at the University of Havana.
"It wasn't like he was just shaking hands real quickly with everyone." Beattie said. "He spoke to everyone and had something to talk to them about."
He talked about his career," Selig said. "But in all honesty he didn't build himself up."
Told that Budig was a former chancellor at Kansas, Castro was ready.
"He told me of his interest in college basketball and was very much aware of the University of Kansas and its basketball tradition." Budig said.
Upon meeting Coleman, Castro talked about NL teams that once trained in Havana, such as the Brooklyn Dodgers and Pittsburgh. With Blue jays Chairman Sam Pollock, he spoke about their shared interest in quail hunting.
"He joked that he thought this was a baseball trip," the 6-foot-5 Beattie said, "and asked what the basketball players were doing here."
Strawberry to play in the minor league
And what did he say to Beattie?
The Associated Press
TAMPA, Fla. — Darryl Strawberry fell short in his bid to return to the New York Yankees by opening day.
Strawberry, who had colon cancer surgery last October, will remain at extended spring training when the Yankees open the season next week, manager Joe Torre said today. The 37-year-old outfielder will go to Triple-A Columbus after he completes his chemotherapy.
treatments are scheduled to continue through at least April.
"Once he finishes up and gets in shape, he'll go play at Columbus." Torre said. "I just told him
we'll go a week at a time, and we'll talk on a regular basis in that regard."
Torre, who will miss one to three months of the season as he recovers from prostate cancer surgery, said Strawberry handled the news fine. Torre, who has a close relationship with Strawberry, met with him for the past two days at Legends Field.
Strawberry will accompany the team for two exhibition games this weekend at Los Angeles before returning to Florida.
The Yankees, anticipating Strawberry wouldn't be ready for the start of the season, shifted him to a minor league contract during the off season. While he
still gets a $2.5 million salary, the Yankees save approximately $4,500 per day in luxury tax until he is placed on the major league roster.
Strawberry saw time in left field and at designated hitter last year. Chili Davis, signed to be the DH, missed most of the regular season because of injuries to right ankle and tendon ligaments. With Davis back this year, Strawberry must be in shape to play left.
"I just told him we need him to play six innings in the outfield in games he starts," Torre said. "This is what we're shooting for. With Chili on the club, he would have to play some outfield."

Peck advances after only two seasons of NCAA coaching
Purdue's coach to move to WNBA
The Associated Press
SAN JOSE, Calif. - Carolyn Peck's coaching resume at Purdue shows two Big Ten Tournament championships, one regular-season title and now, a national championship.
Not bad for two years' work
And two years is all it will be because Peck is leaving the nation's No. 1-ranked team to become coach and general manager of a WNBA expansion team, the Orlando Miracle. Purdue's 62-45 victory against Duke in Sunday night's NCAA championship game was her last appearance with the Boilermakers.
Peck was named to the Orlando job last summer but wanted to stay at Purdue in part because the
team's two stars, Stephanie White-McCarty and Ukari Figgs, already had played for three different coaches in three years. She wasn't about to have them play for a fourth as seniors.
They paid her back by putting her into an elite group. Peck, still full of youthful exuberance at 33, is just the 11th different coach — and the
PURDUE
first African American -- to win a N C A A women's championship.
"It'e an
accomplishment, but there are several other African-American women that have allowed the opportunity for me, a lot of women in general." Peck said. "I didn't win a national championship because of the color of my skin. We won a national championship because of the 15 young women that are on our team and how hard they play together."
That comment was typical of Peck,
who always deflected the attention to her players. As the spotlight on the team increased during its tournament run, Peck steadfastly refused to talk about her new job and kept the focus on Purdue.
When a reporter at the Midwest Regional asked her about it, Peck shot back, "We got that out of the wav in July." End of discussion.
Now she has to start paying attention to Orlando because the WNBA's expansion draft is April 6. She's definitely going into it on a high.
"It's been great," Peck said. "I was very fortunate to start my college career with this team. They are awesome."
Purdue, which finished 34-1 with 32 straight victories, gave an indication of the kind of season this might be when it beat Tennessee, which had won the last three national championships, in its very first game. The Boilermakers won at Arizona the next time out, lost by a point at Stanford three days later and then never lost again.
But for Peck, it actually began
with an off-season trip to Europe for some exhibition games.
"When we first planned the trip, every coach that I talked to about doing it said it's the best thing for bonding when ... you feel like you've got the team to make a run," Peek said. "So that's what the trip to Europe was about."
"We got together for 10 days. We worked on things because we had everybody back. So we took what we had done last year, we fine-tuned it and we were able to add a few new things for this year."
The title game was the first since 1993 without either Louisiana Tech or Tennessee. It was just the second Final Four appearance for Purdue and the first for Duke, which had gotten there by beating Tennessee in the East Regional finals. Purdue eliminated Louisiana Tech in the national semifinals.
"I don't want to take anything away from those two programs, but the nation has come to learn that there are other good teams that are playing," Peck said.
Duval's play proves him to be best golfer
The Associated Press
PONTE VEDRA BEACH, Fla. — Ten months ago, David Duval tried to fend off questions about whether he was the best golfer in the world.
"I don't think it's fair for me to answer that," he said then, at the Memorial Tournament. "If I say yes, then I'm arrogant. If I say no, I have no confidence."
Now, Duval doesn't have to say anything at all. He always has preferred to stand on his results, and he proved himself Sunday in The Players Championship.
His patience tested, Duval never lost his poise. Five times during the course of the final round, he had bogey putts of at least 4 feet—one of them was 15 feet. He made them all.
"Before I teed off, I told myself that the person who wins this tournament is going to make these putts," he said. "If I wanted somebody to make it, I wanted me to do it. So let's just knock them in." On the ground greeted 57th at the
Stadium Course at Sawgrass, a tough hole when a tournament is on the line, Duval didn't flinch. He pulled a wedge from the bag and hit it 6 feet from the hole for a birdie that clinched a two-stroke victory against Scott Gump
It was his third victory this year
—no one else has more than one —
and his 10th in his last 33 starts dating
to October 1997. It was worth
$800,000, enough to put him over
the $8 million mark for a career
that began less than five years ago.
On the island-green 17th at the
More than anything, it took care of the one number that everyone had been talking about since January.
The victory moved Duval to the top world ranking on Monday for the first time, ending Tiger Woods' reign of 41 weeks.
Duval was a stroke behind Joe Ozaki entering the weekend. Ernie Els, Davis Love III and Nick Price were among those within four shots of the lead. But after the third round, when Duval forged ahead by one stroke, Price was the only
"I know I can beat the players. It's just a matter of being ready, being on my game and playing well."
David Duval
golfer
player still under par.
Price, Phil Mickelson, Steve Stricker, Payne Stewart, Colin Montgomerie and Mark O'Meara flirted with the lead Sunday. All of them had either a ball in the water or some other disaster.
Not Duval.
He doesn't carry a 60-degree sand wedge or try to pull off impossible shots. He prefers to steer clear of danger and let his wedge and putter ball him out.
That proved to be a winning ticket in the Players. Duval never took anything worse than bogey.
Duval becomes only the third player to be ranked No. 1 in the world without having won a major. Both Ian Woosnam and Fred Couples were at the top just before they won the Masters in 1991 and 1992.
Duval doesn't even have one leg of the Grand Slam, but he has a hat trick of impressive victories. He won the Mercedes Championships, beating a winners-only field by nine strokes in January. He also won the Tour Championship, the season-ending tournament for the top 30 money-winners. And now he has won the Players against what traditionally is the strongest field on tour.
Tom Kite is the only other player who has won those three events.
Undoubtedly, Duval will be the heavy favorite at Augusta National in two weeks.
"I know I can beat the players," he said. "It's just a matter of being ready, being on my game and playing well. It's not a guarantee I will, but I've proven I can do it. I've proven it to myself."

Sweatshop code to be viewed at Senate
Resolution targets Nike labor practices
By Nadia Mustafa
nmustafa@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Students at the University of Kansas are Joining a nationwide surge of campus activism against unfair labor practices.
Student Senate committees will consider a resolution sponsored by 30 senators at 6 p.m. in the Kansas Union. It would implore KU administration to sign a code aimed at stopping sweatshop manufacturing of collegiate apparel.
On March 16, the American Council on Education, an umbrella organization of which the University and the Board of Regents are members, passed a resolution urging institutions to sign the code. Almost 20 universities including
Duke, the University of Arizona and Florida State University have adopted the code.
State University invocation of the KU chapter
Kyle Browning, president of the KU chapter
Kyle Browning of Amnesty International and Overland Park sophomore, said students should be
aware that some companies manufacture KU products using sweatshop labor.
The University received $780,000 in revenues from trademark licensing last year, which was distributed to scholarship funds.
The University of Kansas Athletic Corporation has an exclusive contract with Nike, which has in the past been accused of tolerating unfair labor practices in its Asian factories.
"Although Nike has recently made an effort to shape up its labor practices, there is still criticism and reports against them," Browning said.
The code requires that outside monitors
inspect factories on a regular basis and that each company be annually certified on its protection of workers' rights. Companies also must provide safe and sanitary working conditions, not use child labor or require workers to work more than 48 hours per week or 12 hours per day. They also must allow freedom of association and collective bargaining.
If the University signs the code, it would require companies such as Nike that produce KU products, including sweatshirts, shoes, hats, cups and miniature basketball to comply with the code. In addition, the Senate resolution would request that the administration work to strengthen the code by requiring companies to provide a public release of factory sites and pay its workers living wages.
"That hat you're wearing could be made by a 13-year-old child who makes 25 cents an hour."
Deidre Backs, off-campus senator and the resolution's co-sponsor, said many students were unaware that some of their apparel was produced by companies using sweatshop labor.
she said. "A lot of people would prefer a hat made by a person who had decent working conditions with more than a 20-minute break during a 14-hour work day."
Browning said students' attempts to discuss labor issues with the administration had proven to be unfruitful.
"The administration said it's unaware of any illegal practices," he said. "They're all basically unhelpful and don't admit anything."
Tom Hutton, director of University Relations, said Nike was only one of hundreds or thousands of companies that manufactured KU products that possibly could use sweatshop labor.
Backs: Wants the University to support sweatshoe boycott.
He said the University was exploring an
alliance with other institutions to develop a code of conduct for companies that produced collegiate products.
"The University has been keeping close tabs on this issue nationally for several months," Hutton said. "It's a very, very large market, and working as a group is likely going to be the way that you influence change."
vata Manager, Nike director of global issues management, denied charges that Nike did not comply with the code.
"Nike has manufacturing facilities that are some of the best in the industry," he said.
Manager said Nike would endorse KU Student Senate's resolution. But, he said, universities should agree on a universal code of conduct negotiated by companies and human rights, labor rights and consumer rights groups.
"That's the best chance for everyone's objectives to be met," Manager said. "One good gold standard process is better than 50 different and unenforceable ones."

KJHk held its annual benefit jazz concert, KJ Can Jazz, last night at the Granada, 1020 Massachusetts St. About 75 people were at the concert.
The Free State Brewery Jazz Quartet, B-Groove and Swing 39 all participated in the festivities, donating their time and music for the benefit show.
Concert-goers were asked either to donate three cans of food or $3. Proceeds from the concert will be given to the Women's Transitional Care Center, a local organization that helps battered or needy women and children, said Brandy Ernzen, promotions director at KJHK.
Tommy Johnson didn't mind tooting his horn for the cause.
"I truly enjoy doing things for a worthy causes," said Johnson, who plays trumpet in the Free State Brewery Jazz Quartet. "And of course KJHK is an institution."

Ben Graham, saxophone player and leader of the group, said the band had participated in the KJHK benefit show last year and had no doubts about doing the show this year.
"The Women's Transitional Center is a good deal, and this is also good publicity for us," he said. "We do it for the love of it anyway. We all love the music that we play."
Ernzen said that the station had been advertising the event but that it wasn't easy to get the word out immediately after spring break.
"It's kind of like the used car dealer thing, only hopefully a little more effective." KJHK's Erznen said.

p.m.
Although Dunehoo plays guitar in a rock group named Proudentall, he said he loved jazz but wished it was more accessible to younger people.
"Jazz, at least in Lawrence, is usually
only presented to those over 21 years of age," he said.
And although the music moves him, he probably won't be doing any dancing tonight.
"I only know one swing move," he said. "And it's more of a nervous walk."
Last year, the event was held at The Bottleneck, 737 New Hampshire St., but Ernzen said the Granada was better because it had a larger dance floor.
Ernzen said the Granada was provided free of cost, except for a $100 fee to pay the sound technician.

Congressman Moore gives class lesson on commercial appeal

Congressman Dennis Moore, D-Kan, visited a University of Kansas communications class yesterday to talk about his campaign last year against Snow burglar.

Robert Rowland, professor of communications, said that the class, Rhetoric and Social Influence, is about the ways communication can persuade people.
Rowland said that Moore's TV spots
Rowland said that Moore's TV spots were helpful real-world examples to show his students. Lawrence is in Moore's district.
learn tangible," he said. "What better way to highlight the importance of rhetoric than to invite our representative to Congress?"
During class Rowland showed three of Moore's commercials from the previous campaign. After showing each commercial, he asked the class which tactics were used and then asked Moore to comment.
"In essence, he makes the things they
One of the commercials, "Music Lessons with Dennis Moore," won a national award for the best congressional campaign commercial last year. In it, Moore played different styles of music on the guitar and said lines such as, "Rock. Our social security system needs to be as strong as a rock."
Moore said he didn't like the idea for the
The commercial turned out to be a boon for the campaign because when it ran, the airwaves were dominated by mudslinging. Moore said.
commercial and told the person directing it: "I feel totally stupid, I can't do this."
"I think this ad, which played in the last 10 days of the campaign, cut right through all that nastiness," he said.
Moore said the commercial established him as a person who could be spoken and related to by others.
One reason Moore said he enjoyed speaking to Rowland's class was because he thought he performed better in an interactive atmosphere rather than just giving speeches.
Barry Cohen, New Orleans sophomore, said that Moore, who wandered around the classroom when fielding questions, did a good job communicating.
"What politics is all about is communicating with people," he said.
"He does seem like he connects," he said. Crissy Hodges, Topeka junior, said Moore's discussion was relevant to what was being discussed in the class.
"I thought he had a lot of good insights," she said.
Moore also spoke to the class about some of the issues that he concentrated on in the campaign and those he is concentrating on now.
One of his main concerns is campaign
"We spent in this last campaign $855,000, which to me is obscene." Moore said. "Unfortunately, with the laws that we have in this country, that's the only way to get elected."
Moore said a reason campaigns needed to be regulated was to improve public opinion of the parties, which he said the public thought were corrupt.
finance reform, an issue on which he has sponsored a bill.
Rowland, who helped write speeches for Moore during the campaign but tried not to advocate him in his classes, said the presentation had gone well and that he would invite Moore back next year.

Federal Reserve leaves interest rates unchanged
WASHINGTON — Federal Reserve policymakers left short-term interest rates unchanged yesterday resisting the temptation to ruin Wall Street's celebration of the first five-digit close of the Dow Jones stock average.
The central bank's monetary policy panel — the Federal Open Market Committee — ended a closed-door meeting by signaling it had left the benchmark rate on overnight loans between banks at 4.75 percent.
It has been at that level, a four-year low, since Nov. 17, when the Fed finished reducing it, during a seven-week span, from 5.5 percent in an effort to insulate the U.S. economy from the aftershocks of last summer's collapse of the Russian ruble.
In an announcement noting that their meeting had ended after 3 1/2 hours, policymakers also made no mention of a change in their thinking about the likely direction of future interest-rate moves.
Many journalists worry about media credibility
Economists had widely anticipated both no change in rates and no change in the bias, so financial markets showed little reaction. On Monday, traders drove the Dow Jones industrial average to its first close above 10,000. About 15 minutes before yesterday's announcement, the average was down 33 points from Monday's close and, a few minutes after, about 46 points.
WASHINGTON — Flash, it's not just the public who thinks the news media lack credibility. In a survey, a rising number of journalists say so, too.
Turning the tables on the media, the Pew Research Center for the People and the Press interviewed 552 national and local journalists and news executives in print, television, radio and the Internet on how they view themselves.
interpersonal The results, released yesterday, indicate that journalists think that reporting has become sloppier, that too many reporters use their articles and newscasts to speculate or state opinion and that financial pressures hamper the quality of news coverage.
The issue of newspaper credibility came up earlier this week when the Associated Press Managing Editors and the American Society of Newspaper Editors announced a project intended to pay more attention to ways that race and ethnicity affect what stories newspapers cover and who is assigned to cover them.
When asked to cite chief problems facing journalism, half the national news professionals in the Pew survey mentioned such things as sensationalism, a lack of objectivity and inaccurate reporting. About 40 percent cited too much emphasis on the bottom line, competition and declining audience and readership.
Deal allows Alabama Lt. Gov. to use bathroom
MONTGOMERY, Ala. — A sometimes comical power struggle that brought the Alabama Senate to a standstill for nearly a month ended yesterday, leaving the lieutenant governor free once more to go to the bathroom without being afraid he will be stripped of his duties while he's gone.
According to a compromise reached before dawn, Steve Windom, Alabama's first Republican lieutenant governor this century, regained some — but not all — of the traditional powers exercised by his Democratic predecessors.
But it came at a high price, both for Windom and for an Alabama State-house that fell into slapstick turmoil just when Republicans were celebrating the return of two-party politics and Democrats were trumpeting the election of the state's first "New South" governor.
The turmoil began even before Windom took office, when Democratic Governor-elect Don Siegelman and the majority of Democrats in the Senate stripped Windom of nearly all his powers including the authority to appoint committees and decide which committee considers which bill. On Windom's first day on March 2, he snatched back his powers by gaveling through new rules during howls of protest from the Democrats
The Democrats responded with a boycott that used up one-third of the Legislature's meeting days and prevented any bills from being considered including the governor's centerpiece plan to enact a lottery.
Siegelman's allies then kept the Senate meeting in marathon sessions, forcing Windom to urinate in a jug under his podium on Sunday because he feared be replaced as presiding officer if he left even briefly.
Woman survives train dragging with 911 call
ANDERSON, Inc. — A car was re-ended into the side of a moving freight train and dragged for at least 3.5 miles as the driver used her cellular phone to frantically call for help.
Amber Scott escaped with only minor
injuries in Monday morning's accident.
"She was very, very lucky," Madison County sheriff's Maj. Ron Richardson said yesterday.
The Conrail train, its crew unaware of her plight, dragged Scott's car until the car apparently hit a railroad sign at another crossing and was jarred loose from the train.
When rescuers finally found the 19-year-old woman, her car was demolished, but she had suffered only cuts, bumps and bruises.
"I prayed to the Lord all the way down the track," Scott told Indianapolis television station WTHR.
Scott was stopped at a railroad crossing on her way to classes at Ball State University, when a pickup truck hit her from behind in the fog. Richardson said. The impact sent her car directly into the train's side.
The search for Scott started after the pickup's driver, Ross K. Schroeder, 25, told deputies there had been a car in front of him at the crossing and that it had disappeared.
Meanwhile, as the train was pushing her car down the tracks, Scott dialed 911 on her cell phone. Police dispatchers could hear a woman screaming for help and the sound of a train in the background, Sheriff Terry Richine said.
North Koreans attempt to flee from starvation
WORLD
YANJI, China — The North Korean refugee sobbed as he recalled the dying family he left behind: an ailing wife and two young sons, one with a bleeding stomach from eating bread made with tree bark.
"I can't eat. Whenever I look at food, I immediately see my children crying, dying before my eyes," the gaunt, distraught former soldier said, tears rolling down his hunger-pinched cheeks.
"It isn't just my kids. Everyone's children
die from death free from death."
are starving to death, freezing to death." With famine consuming them and their loved ones, desperate North Koreans are fleeing to China's bountiful borderlands in search of food. Often alone and on foot, risking capture and prison, the refugees have one goal: to keep from joining the army of dead created by four years of chronic food shortages.
A U.S. congressional delegation estimated last fall that 2 million North Koreans had died from starvation or hunger-related illnesses. South Korean intelligence officials say North Korea's population has fallen from 25 million to 22 million.
North Korea's stavility is more than an academic issue. The militaristic, often belligerent nation maintains one of the world's largest armies despite its famine. It has missiles capable of reaching Japan and other parts of Asia and is suspected of developing nuclear weapons.

Goldwater scholarships awarded to KU students
Two University of Kansas seniors were awarded Barry M. Goldwater Scholarships, which encourage excellence in science, engineering and mathematics.
Marvin Decker, Pittsburg, and Stuartt Corder, Olathe, both seniors in mathematics, received the award Friday.
The Barry M. Goldwater Scholarship and Excellence in Education Program awarded more than 300 scholarships this year from a field of about 1,000 students.
Rodolfo Torres, associate professor or mathematics, has advised Decker since last year when Decker arrived from Reed College in Portland, Ore.
"We are very happy for him." Torres said.
"He is probably one of the best undergraduate students we have at KU, mathematically. He's going to be a superb mathematician."
Corder said he thought he had a good chance at winning a scholarship because of his strong research background.
He said he found out about his award when he went to his department office after spring break and found a sign congratulating him on the door.
The scholarships pay $7,500 per year for either one or two years, depending upon the student's graduation date.
"I was kind of surprised and a little cautious at first, but I went around and talked to a few people to confirm it," Corder said.
The University has had 20 Goldwater winners since the program began in 1989.

Volunteers sought in virus vaccine study
johnson@eagle.cc.ukans.edu
Kansan staff writer
Bv T.J. Johnson
Pamphlets promoting a Human Papillomavirus vaccine study were mailed to all female KU students last week to attract volunteers to participate in a study, which is being performed at Watkins Memorial Health Center and 14 other locations around the country.
The study is testing a vaccine against one of about 80 strains of the HPV. About one-third of the strains can cause genital warts and about one-third of those can cause precancerous lesions on the cervix, said Henry Buck, gynecologist at the health center. It is being sponsored by a major pharmaceutical company.
Although the vaccine contains virus-like particles, there is no risk of HPV infection from participating in the study. Buck said.
"It's a virus-like particle and because of that, it's impossible to get the disease from the vaccine," said Buck. "There is no risk of HPV infection with the vaccine."
Buck said that with HPV, as with other viruses such as the flu, developing vaccines against particular strains of the virus enabled scientists to develop polyvalent vaccines, or vaccines that protect the recipient against many strains of a disease.
"My guess is that they will make one that perhaps has somewhere between three and five different strains in it," Buck said.
Women who are interested in participating in the study are screened using a list of criteria. They must be healthy, not pregnant, unmarried and
between the age of 16 and 32. They also cannot have had any previous diseases caused by HPV and also must agree to use birth control for the first seven months of the study. Participants need to be available for up to nine check-ups during a three-year period at the health center.
Volunteers will be given up to $1,000 and free routine gynecologic care for the length of the study.
Kathy Guth, a nurse practitioner at the health center, said much of the response from people in the study had been positive.
"Some of the response from people is that they are excited to be in the forefront of something," Guth said.
Women who are interested in participating can call toll-free. 1-877-788-3947.
Local bartenders learn when to stop serving

To an untrained eye, a person in the pub smoking two cigarettes simultaneously and pawing for loose change might pass for a disoriented tobacco zealot.
But about 40 local bartenders who went to the Kansas Union yesterday afternoon to receive free alcohol management training now know that this person could be drunk.
Debra Leach, executive director of the National Licensed Beverage Association, conducted the training session at the Kansas Room in the Kansas Union. She said it was important for bartenders to know when to cut off customers.
"It is illegal to serve an intoxicated person." Leach said.
Patti Pickard, Junction City junior, said she had heard much of the presented
information before but that she went because she wanted to start bartending at the Granada, 1020 Massachusetts St.
"My manager mentioned it might be a good idea to go," she said.
Each year the number of alcohol-induced deaths in the United States surpasses 20,000—a number that does not include domestic violence statistics and other related fatalities, Leach said.
She said that to keep people safe, bartenders needed to know how alcohol worked and how to judge people who had been drinking.
As a person drinks more and more, alcohol works on different parts of the brain. Leach said.
First it affects the cortex. Drinkers become more jovial, relaxed and uninhibited, she said. Next, the cerebellum becomes influenced, and the drinker begins to lose motor control.
the limbic system, responsible for emotional control, is the next to go, Leach said.
Finally, she said the brain stem, which is responsible for the most fundamental functions of the body, will be depressed as the person continues to drink alcohol, and the person will stop breathing.
"It's a really good idea just as a matter of course to give somebody a glass of water when they order a shot," she said.
A bill in in the Kansas House might make alcohol management training mandatory, said Ted Madie, who worked at the information table for the Kansas Licensed Beverage Association, which sponsored the event.
Madle said that this was the first training session in Kansas and that bartenders who completed the session would be certified by NLBA for three years.
Future training sessions would not be free, he said.

By next fall, lighting and a blue emergency phone will be installed in the parking lot west of GSP. The project is funded through students' $2 campus lighting fee, which was matched by the administration.

New lighting to be installed in dark 'rape lot'

Many Gertrude Sellards Pearson and Corbin Hall residents were relieved to learn that lighting and a blue emergency phone will be added next fall in a parking lot west of GSP known to many students as the "rape lot."
---
Before spring break, the campus safety advisory board allocated $35,000 to light the lot, which it perceived as a campus safety priority.
Money for the project will be taken from a surplus produced by the students' $2 campus lighting fee, which was matched by the administration March 19.
which was marked by a dainian street. Residents of GSP and Corbin often have to park in the "rape lot" at night when other parking lots are full. There is only one city street light, which is in a corner of the lot and is north of 11th and Indiana streets.
Rebecca Hougland, Corbin resident and Overland Park freshman, said she was glad the University of Kansas decided to add lighting to the parking lot.
"People could just grab you." Hougland said.
"Any time you go down there, you fear that you'll get raped. I'll park my car and see somebody, and it scares me."
Scott Kaiser, student body vice president and member of the advisory board, said he had heard complaints about the parking lot for more than two years.
"A poorly lit lot just invites crime, Kaiser said. "At least now we'll have a feeling of safety or deterring possible opportunities for unsafe areas."
The KU Public Safety Office and Facilities Operations plan to install the lighting and phone within the next six months.

Congress' urgent actions required to halt Social Security's collapse
The most urgent domestic problem facing Congress this year is Social Security reform. It is imperative that Congress deal with Social Security this session.
The primary function of the Social Security system is to provide retirement and survivors benefits. This comprises 86 percent of Social Security expenditures. Social security also provides disability insurance and a host of other smaller programs.
Taxes paid to the Social Security system by workers pay for the benefits of current retirees. Because Social Security takes in more money than it spends, the surplus goes into the Social Security Trust Fund.
Every year Congress raids the trust fund to pay for budget deficits and replaces that money with non-negotiable treasury bonds. This is how we get the mythical budget "surplus."
As the baby-boom generation begins to retire, there will be more people drawing out of the Social Security system and fewer people paving into it.
The administration estimates that by 2010 there only will be two workers for every retiree taking money out of the system. Now there are about 3.3 workers per retiree, in 1950 there were eight per retiree.
The problem is that by the year 2013 the Social Security system will begin to pay out more than it takes in, theoretically the difference would be paid by the trust fund. The problem is that the government already has spent the
The government needs to provide benefits with minimal tax hikes or new borrowing.
trust fund monies on other projects.
The administration believes that the system can stay solvent until 2029; some supporters of the system claim it to be solvent until 2032, and some contend that it will never be insolvent.
The problem with these scenarios is that they require the government to pay back these treasury securities. To do this, the U.S. government would have to raise taxes or borrow more money (increasing the privately held government debt). According to Milton Freidman, Nobel Prize winning economist, the government will have to raise $7 trillion to $11 trillion to pay for the system.
In 1998, the Social Security system ran a surplus of $78 billion, this year it is estimated to run a surplus of $156 billion. In the next 15 years, Social Security will run a surplus of $4.7 trillion, if the economy keeps growing at its present rate. If the economy slows down, then the surpluses will be much smaller.
Current and future retirees have been promised certain levels of income from Social Security, and the nation must keep its word to them. These future surpluses give Americans a decent base for constructing a plan to deliver on this promise.
If the economy does not continue
to grow at current rates, then these surpluses never will materialize and the Social Security problem will be much harder to solve.
President Clinton promised in his 1998 State of the Union address to "save every penny" of Social Security. This year, he changed his mind and decided that Social Security could be saved with 62 percent of its own surplus.
Clinton wants to spend the rest.
Citizens want to pay Saving every penny would be a good start. By converting privately held national debt into publicly held treasury obligations held by the administration, the government would save money every year because of lower interest payments.
This would result in the government costing taxpayers less and less every year.
It would require the kind of fiscal discipline which lawmakers never have shown the backbone to exercise. It would require that lawmakers no longer spend money our nation needs to put toward preserving Social Security. Regardless of which reforms Congress eventually make, it is important that the members take action this year. Every year the Social Security trust fund is raided. Every year, the government spends more money that should be put into Social Security. Every year the collapse of Social Security gets closer. Every year, the problem gets bigger and harder to solve.
Congress needs to act immediately and devise a plan which can provide benefits with minimal tax increases or new borrowing.

Media ignores reality of bumpy teen-age life
Perspective
made the mistake of watching the movie Cruel Intentions during spring break.
The film is an adaptation of the French novel "Les Liaisons Dangereuses" by Choderos De Laclos. It's a tale of
rustful doings among the upper class. In the original French version, the upper class is French courtesans. In Cruel Intentions, the upper class is wealthy, big-city teen-agers.

How '90s.
How annoying.
Movies and television now assault us on all sides with images of youth as a perfect, sexy time. Never mind that the teen-age years are often embarrassing, awkward and acne-filled.
ing, awkward and acne fried. I'm sure that in some city, on some distant planet, in some far-off galaxy there are teenagers who look and act like those portrayed in Cruel Intentions. I'm sure somewhere high school students drive fabulously expensive cars, look like fashion models and have promiscuous sex without catching nasty diseases.
I've never been to that place myself, but I'm sure it exists.
suit themselves.
At least in the 1980s, we had The Wonder Years, which presented the traumas of growing up in a nearly realistic way.
ing up in culture. In the 1990s, we have the unparalleled output of the WB Network. Weekly, millions tune in to follow the exploits of the laughably wooden mannequins populating Dawson's Creek and Felicity.
Realism never has been a part of television or film, I understand. By definition, these media are means of escape.
But with each successive portrayal of unrealistic teen-age life, a message is sent: The viewer should be like these people on the TV or movie screen. These are models for life.
There are enough pressures on the average high school or college student without the added burden of fulfilling a fictitious image. The image — initially presented as a diversion — is shown again and again until it becomes acceptable as fact.
Albom quotes his former professor as saying: "The issue is to accept who you are and revel in that...I had my time to be in my 30s, and now is my time to be 78. You have to find what's good and true and beautiful in your life as it is now...Age is not a competitive issue."
I've heard situations and characters from Dawson's Creek analyzed with more passion and intensity than situations and characters
Schwartz hit on the element that slick, glamorous and ultimately empty portrayals of young people miss. One must reach one's own, personal, private standards. Goals set by others for appearance or actions are worthless.
Allowing TV programs such as Dawson's Creek or movies such as Cruel Intentions to mold our ideas of age, and what appearance or behavior is appropriate for that age is silly and self-defeating.
from the real world. I've read a review of Cruel Intentions that praised the movie's "realism" in depicting young adult life.
The teen-age and twenty-something years are one phase of life not particularly superior to any other. Live with vigor, certainly, but apply that excitement during all years — not just ones the media deem important.
Repeat a lie enough times, and it becomes true.
Youth is a positive trait. But youth is not about appearance and clothes. It's about an inner drive, an exuberance for life that is found in all categories and ages of people. Modern portraits of the teen-age years focus on the surface and ignore qualities that truly distinguish "young" people.
During break, I also had the chance to read a book called "Tuesdays With Morrie" by Mitch Albom. This experience was not a mistake.
take.
Albom, a sports columnist for The Detroit Free Press, writes about time spent with his former college teacher, Morrie Schwartz. Schwartz was dying of Lou Gehrig's disease and decided to share his thoughts about life and death with Albom.
Schwartz was 78 and not attractive in a fashion model way. Yet he was full of youth. Even as he was consumed by an unstoppable illness, Schwartz laughed and shared time with those closest to him.

don't get invited to many parties. That's probably because most kids don't want someone who's their parents' age hanging around.
One-on-one encounters diminish cultural biases
I guess I can understand that, but I still am hoping to go to a sorority or fraternity party before I graduate.
However, when one of my six roommates has a party, my chances of getting an invite soar through the roof. Even if they are asking just to be nice, I am not beyond taking advantage of a good situation.
This situation happened a few weeks ago. One of my roommates had a wine-tasting party. The idea of attending excited me, but it also made me nervous. I would only know two or three people.

know two or three people.
At the same time, I liked the idea of meeting people from other areas of the campus. I also reasoned that if I made a fool of myself — such as getting drunk on one glass of wine — or became bored, I could always quietly slin up to my room.
Most of the people there were graduate students, and I doubt if any of them knew or suspected that I was an undergraduate.
DISCUSSION
My roommate did a great job of inviting a variety of persons. I especially enjoyed talking with two graduate teaching assistants about their experiences in Russia. Diversity issues were far from my mind.
After my first two glasses of wine, I no longer felt inhibited. I flitted from group to group, trying to pick up on what was being discussed.
About halfway through the party, a tall young man walked in. I just barely noticed him. A little while later, I encountered him
in the kitchen where we were both deciding whether to try the Moroccan sardines or the smoked herring. I quickly discovered that he was from Russia.
I have met maybe one or two Russians before, but here was one who was determined to have a conversation with me. Normally I would flee in this situation, convinced that I wouldn't be able to understand him because of his accent. His manner was so engaging and warm that I found myself enthralled.
We talked about school, about the places he had been to, and in short, the usual things that strangers chat about. What made me realize that this had something to do with diversity was the thought processes my mind was going through while we were conversing.
I was trying my best to coniure up images of former biases regarding Russia so that I could attach them to him in my mind. I was trying to stereotype him. I tried to think of an old Russian woman on a street corner selling hand-painted items.
I could identify with him and accept him. This is the goal of my heart: to be this way with everyone I meet.
Then it occurred to me: When it's one-on-one, nothing else matters. At that moment, this young man became a beautiful person, and my heart opened up to him.
I tried to think of a concert pianist sitting at the piano 18 hours a day for the government. I even tried to think of a Russian dictator. I tried to think of ideological differences. But nothing was working. I couldn't do it.
If we can all do this,we will make the world a better place.
I was talking one-on-one with a person, not a country, not a religion, not an ideology, not a history, not even a whole race of people, just another human being.

Hy-Vee will come at a price
Grocery chain agrees to make improvements
By Heather Woodward
hwoodward@kanson.com
Kansas staff writer
Construction on a Hy-Vee grocery store at West Sixth Street and Monterey Way could begin as early as this week.
The Lawrence City Commission unanimously voted last night to require Hy-Vee to complete street and stormwater improvements at the southwest corner of the intersection as a part of the store's building permit agreement.
City Manager Mike Wildgen said the city wanted to make sure the improvements were planned before construction began on the store. Hy-Vee has agreed to post a $100,000 bond for the cost of the off-site improvements.
"This way we will be assured that the work will be done since
this is an off-premise project," Wildgen said. "It is a condition of the issuance of a building permit that has come as part of the review process."
Wildgen said he thought the improvements would be done this summer.
Landplan Engineering, 1310 Wakarusa Drive, will be in charge of the stormsewer and street improvements. Tim Herdon, who represented Landplan at the commission meeting, said the improvements would increase the capacity of water that the stormwater sewers could hold, which will compensate for the increased water generated by the Hy-Vee store.
"The moral of my story is that the applicant not only meets the standards for the property but that the applicant is going above and beyond to make sure that the city and neighborhood's concerns are met," Herndon said.
Commissioner Erv Hodges said at the meeting that he was concerned that the sewers' increased capacity would cause flooding in southern Lawrence, where the

water will flow.
"We already have flooding at Quail Creek," Hodges said. "It seems to me that if the sewers are built to handle more water, then it will flow south, and they will have more water down there."
This particular site is ready
Herndon said Hy-Vee would have to receive an occupancy permit once the store was built that would be contingent on the stormwater improvements' completion.
Ruth Mitchell, assistant vice president of communications for Hy-Vee, said the company was ready to begin construction immediately.
for development, and we hope to be getting started as soon as possible," Mitchell said. "We are working on getting bids for it right now."
Mitchell said the new store would be 66,000 square feet and cost about $10 million, including land, construction and equipment prices.
rme new Hy-Vee store will have services not available at the current Lawrence Hy-Vee location. 3504 Clinton Parkway. The additional services will include an expanded food court, more meals ready for takeout and a pharmacy with a drive-up window, Mitchell said.

Art Center plans squeak by Commission
By Heather Woodward hwoodward@kansan.com kansan staff writer
A decision to design plans for a Lawrence Arts Center in the 900 block of New Hampshire Street divided Lawrence City Commissioners at last night's meeting.
In a 3-2 vote, the commission approved the drafting of plans by Glenn Livinggood Penzler Architects, 1001 New Hampshire St., for a center at the New Hampshire Street location.
Trouble arose after a suggestion was made by Bill Newsome, who represented Riverfront L.L.C., the company that owns the Riverfront Mall. He said there might be interest in having the arts center at the mall.
He requested the commission defer a decision to draft designs for 60 days, while Riverfront L.L.C. conducted space analysis of the mall.
"I think it would be premature to draft plans for the arts center without considering alternative locations," Newsome said at the meeting. "Everything has seemed to happen so fast with the 900 block of New Hampshire suddenly being ordained as the new location, and there has been no time for other locations to make presentations."
Ann Evans, who is on the Lawrence Arts Center board of directors, said she had met with the East Lawrence Association and groups who represented the Carnegie Library, 200 W. Ninth St., which is where the arts center is now. She said they were both in favor of having the center as part of the Downtown 2000 project on New Hampshire Street.
"We had contacted the developers of the Downtown 2000 project, and they followed through," Evans said. "It seemed like a great opportunity for us."
Newsome said Riverfront L.L.C. had
approached the center's board of directors about the possibility of having the center at the mall but was told that the Carnegie Library needed to be eliminated as an option before others were considered.
before others Commissioner Bob Moody said he was hesitant to approve funding for drafting plans for the New Hampshire Street location without a guarantee that it would end up being built there. The first phase of the architects' plan will cost the city and the arts center $35,000.
"The New Hampshire site shows promise, but is it the only site with promise? I just do not know," Moody said at the meeting. "I don't want to spend any monies until we feel as a commission that this is the direction we want to go."
Commissioners Moody and Bonnie Augustine voted against the drafting of plans by Glenn Livingood Penzler Architects.

Group says evolution is not absolute fact
By Jennifer Roush
jrush@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
A local group of citizens is concerned that the curriculum in the Lawrence public schools contradict biblical teaching.
The group, Families for Learning Accurate Theories, had its first press conference yesterday afternoon at the Lawrence Community Building to share its views with the public.
FLAT was formed in mid-March by KU professors and other concerned citizens in response to another group. Parents for Objective Science and History, which was formed in early March and holds that evolution should not be taught in schools as an absolute fact.
Adrian Melott, professor of physics and astronomy and spokesman for FLAT, said the group advocated the teaching of biblical creationism in Lawrence public schools.
Meitot said that POSH had the right idea but that the group did not go far enough because it only focused on evolution.
"they're far too timid," he said.
"They don't say what they mean.
And they aren't consistent in their use of scripture."
POSH founder Ellen Barber said she thought FLAT had misinterpreted POSH's intentions.
"POSH has a hard time taking FLAT seriously," she said. "When they can get on the same argument about objective science in the classroom being taught to our students and that there are two sides to evolution, a pro and a con, then they may deserve some attention. Meanwhile, let's hope they can figure out what 'objective' means."
According to Revelation 7:1, the earth has four corners. This is contradicted by scientific teachings, which say that the earth is round,
Melott said FLAT members would focus on three main points to which they objected in the public school curriculum—the round Earth theory, the biblical value of pi and foreign language teaching.
Philip Kimball, local fiction writer and FLAT treasurer, said the secular humanist value of pi contributed to moral, spiritual and social decay.
Melott said.
"Pi is now taught to be 3.14, which is an irrational number," Kimball said. "That implies that God's creation is irrational, which leads to moral corrosion."
the Bible, in I Kings 7:23, puts the value of pi at 3. FLAT plans a demonstration at 2 p.m. on April 3 at South Park to prove the Biblical value of pi.
Melott said that the last objection FLAT had to the local public school curriculum was the teaching of foreign languages.
He said that FLAT's position on foreign language teaching was based on the Biblical story of the Tower of Babel, in which God punished the human race for its arrogance by creating different languages so people wouldn't be able to communicate with one another.
Melott said FLAT had not yet discussed what would be done with textbooks the group considered objectionable, but he thought that those books should be removed from public schools.
Kimball, however, said the group would not endorse book banning.
"There's no need to ban books," Kimbala said. "The truth will get out. The Bible will win in the free marketplace of ideas."
The group will continue to speak until after the Lawrence school board elections are finished, Melott said. He also said that FLAT would endorse candidates for the school board who were willing to adopt the group's views. The group also will make a presentation at the first school board meeting after the election.
Melott said he did not see a conflict between his membership in FLAT and his job at the University because he was not speaking on behalf of the University.
"Some people will like it, and others won't," Melott said. "Part of the function of a University is controversy. We want to get people thinking about this issue."

University to conduct health center surveys
By Allan Davis
Special to the Kansan
A KU project is giving mental health consumers a role in formulating policy by hiring them to collect needed data.
The Office of Social Policy Analysis, which is a part of the School of Social Welfare, is conducting a consumer satisfaction survey to determine how well community mental health centers are meeting consumer needs. Kansas consumer-run organizations have a leading role in the data-collecting process.
OSPA performs research and analysis and makes policy recommendations for Kansas legislators and agencies.
The Mental Health and Developmental Disabilities Commission, a part of the Kansas Department of Social and Rehabilitation Services, contracted with OSPA to conduct a consumer-aided survey evaluating the performance of mental-health centers.
"The whole notion is to have consumers talking to consumers and get a better, more honest assessment of how they view their services," said Terry Larson, executive director of the NAMI Kansas, formerly the Kansas Alliance for the Mentally Ill.
Larson also is a member of the Consumer Satisfaction Advisory Committee, which assisted in the development of the project's design.
Recommendations resulting from the survey may influence state policies regarding mental-health centers and their programs.
"We primarily have gotten contracts from the state, mostly from SRS, to do studies for them about potential policies," said Linda Zebley, the survey project coordinator. "A lot of our work has been from MHDD because the school has historically done a lot of work in the mental-health field, and we have a pretty good reputation for having people with expertise."
OSPA devised the survey instrument and performed the pilot test. The draft survey was then given, via the 27 mental health centers, to more than 900 consumers.
"They did it that way and got a lot of good data." Zebley said.

Nation/World
Milosevic insists NATO attacks end
The Associated Press
BELGRADE Yugoslavia
BELGRADE. Yugoslavia — Yugoslav leader Slobodan Milosevic insisted yesterday that NATO attacks stop before he moves toward peace, declaring his forces ready to fight "to the very end." NATO answered with new resolve to wreck his military with relentless air assault.
More than six hours of talks with Russia's prime minister yielded a statement by Milosevic that he was willing to rein in a harsh campaign against ethnic Albanians in Kosovo and resume peace talks if the NATO strikes stopped.
His proposal was rejected by NATO leaders including President Clinton, who warned that atrocities against ethnic Albanians would weaken Serbia's claim to the separatist province and increase NATO's determination
to destroy Milosevic's army.
"We will see that his military will be seriously diminished, key military infrastructure destroyed, the prospect for international support for Serbia's claim to Kosovo increasingly jeopardized," Clinton said, adding that the allies "must remain steady and determined."
NATO officials said that the number of ethnic Albanians who have fled Kosovo in the last six days has grown to 118,000, and Pec. a city of 100,000 in western Kosovo, almost has been totally destroyed.
kosovo Albanians kept up their exodus by foot, car and cart, pouring across the border and overwhelming Albania, one of the world's poorest countries.
At least eight elderly refugees, exhausted by the journey, died in a
hospital yesterday in Kukes, Albania. One woman had deep scratches on her knees, suggesting that she was dragged or crawled at one point during her flee to safety.
Russian Prime Minister Yevgeny Primakov, who met with Milosevic in Belgrade, said upon his arrival later in Bonn, Germany, that the Yugoslav leader was ready for renewed negotiations if NATO stopped the bombing.
He said Milosevic wanted the talks to include "the interests of all groups in Kosovo" — a reference to the Serb minority in Kosovo.
military authority."
A statement from Milosevic's office read on state-run television said: "To open the space for negotiations, (NATO) aggression on Yugoslavia has to stop immediately."
The Pentagon ordered five B-1 bombers and additional air defense
jamming planes and refueling tankers to Europe for intensified air strikes.
In Bonn, German Chancellor Ger
hard Schroeder, the current president of the European Union, called Milosevic's offer unacceptable. He specifically rejected the condition that NATO stops its attacks first.
"The signal that the international community expects is the

withdrawal of Yugoslav military and paramilitary units from Kosovo," Schroeder said.
Healthy economy helps Social Security, Medicare
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — The healthy economy has boosted the fortunes of Social Security and Medicare, delaying the date when each will run short of money, trustees for the two retirement programs announced yesterday.
"The strength of our economy has led to modest but real improvements." President Clinton said.
It is the second consecutive year that stronger-than-expected economic growth has improved the outlook for the nation's retirement system.
Medicare, the health insurance program for the elderly and disabled, had been projected to run short of cash in 2001. Last year that date was moved to 2008, and yesterday's report moves it further to 2015.
The Social Security insolvency date,
extended last year from 2029 to 2032,
was moved yesterday to 2034.
Yet Clinton and Republicans in Congress both said they would continue to
"Now is the time to make those changes. Now, when we have time on our side." Clinton said.
press for changes to strengthen the retirement system this year.
Rep. Clay Shaw, R-Fla., chairman of the House Ways and Means Social Security subcommittee, said lawmakers should not lose focus or become complacent.
Some experts speculate that the latest good news could reduce pressure on lawmakers to make dramatic changes, and risk political backlash, before the 2000 presidential election.
So far, however, there is little agreement about what to do.
"It might give some impetus to the concept of a slower transition," said public policy researcher Marilyn Moon, one of two private citizens on the board of trustees for the retirement programs.
The other trustees consist of Clinton administration officials, including Health and Human Services Secretary Donna Shalala.
Water quality questioned
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — An environmental group petitioned the Food and Drug Administration Monday to tighten its regulation of bottled water after tests showed a third of 103 brands exceeded industry or state purity standards.
The Natural Resources Defense Council, an environmental advocacy group, said that most bottled water was found to be of good quality and that none of the test samples posed a health concern for the general public.
but the tests on nearly 1,000 samples involving 103 brands of bottled water raise questions about industry-wide marketing claims that bottled water is more pure and healthier than tap water, the group maintained.
"Most bottled water appears to be safe," the group said.
It said 22 percent of the samples exceeded California's health-based standard, the country's most stringent, for arsenic and cancer-causing synthetic organic compounds. Levels of bacteria in 17 percent of the samples exceeded the voluntary industry guidelines.
Bottled better?
Is bottled water really better than water from the tap? Recent studies report that only 1 percent of water from water bottles exceed California's health standards, which are the toughest in the country. The report also shows that 17 percent exceed the industrial guidelines.
Kvle Ramsey/KANSAN
The FDA, although not commenting on specifics of the NRDC report, said bottled water posed no significant public health risk and was, therefore, safe to consume.
The agency regulates bottled water as a food product. Industry spokesmen also insisted that the NRDC report showed that most bottled water was safe.
Americans drink an estimated 3.4 billion gallons of bottled water annually — about 12.7 gallons per person
- and the numbers have been increasing nearly 10 percent a year, according to the industry.
Tobacco giant ordered to pay record amount
The Associated Press
PORTLAND, Ore. — In the biggest liability verdict ever against the tobacco industry, a jury ordered Philip Morris to pay $81 million yesterday to the family of a man who died of lung cancer after smoking Marlboros for four decades.
The victory by the wife and children of Jesse Williams was the second major hit against Philip Morris this year. A San Francisco jury awarded $51.5 million last month to a Mariborbo smoker who has inoperable lung cancer.
The jury awarded $1.6 million in compensatory damages and $79.5 million in punitive damages.
Although no smoking liability verdict against the tobacco industry has survived on appeal, Wall Street analysts had been watching the Portland case closely to see if huge damage awards against Big Tobacco were now a trend.
"It will make the stocks go down," said Gary Black, an industry analyst with the New York brokerage firm Sanford C. Bernstein & Co."This will persuade the industry to start thinking the tide may be turning."
The Williams family, who sought $101 million, alleged that the company knew its cigarettes could cause cancer.
Testimony portrayed Williams, a former janitor with the Portland school system, as a three-pack-a-day Marlboro smoker who thought the manufacturer wouldn't sell a harmful product and who was heavily
addicted to nicotine.
Williams died in 1997. He was 67 and left behind a wife, Mayola, and six adult children.
Philip Morris attorney Walter Cofer said he would appeal. He noted that the tobacco industry has a 40-year history of prevailing in such cases.
"If you look at this verdict, it was not supported by the evidence," Cofer said. "It was a product of passion and prejudice."
The 12-member Circuit Court jury, which included three smokers and four former smokers, spent a little more than two days reviewing a month of testimony from experts in such areas as cancer diagnosis, radiology and the chemistry of tobacco smoke.
Besides the San Francisco case, U.S. juries have awarded damages in smoking liability cases only three times — twice in Florida and once in New Jersey. All three verdicts were overturned on appeal.
In the Portland case, attorneys for the Williams family cited internal Philip Morris documents to bolster its claim that the company long knew and hid information about the cancer-causing potential of cigarettes.
Raymond Thomas, an attorney for the family, called the tobacco company "willful, malicious, sneaky" in its efforts to keep smokers hooked.
Cofer said Williams was well aware that smoking could harm his health and had been warned of that by doctors and family members.

Ice cream flavor honors school's 150th anniversary
MADISON, Wis. — "Praise to Thee, Our Almond Mocha" was the spoons-down winner in a contest to choose an ice cream flavor honoring the University of Wisconsin's 150th anniversary.
The flavor created by Allen Rupilinger, 28, of Waukesha, is made of vanilla ice cream with a chocolate mocha ripple dotted with crunchy almonds.
It's name is a play on "Praise to Thee, Our Alma Mater," a line from the reverential school song "Varsity."
Rupilinger's flavor beat nine other finalists Monday as 10 testers, including University of Wisconsin-Madison Chancellor David Ward, tasted each flavor and wrote down
their rankings.

The winning ice cream will be introduced during Alumni Week, May 2-7, and served through 1999 at the on-campus ice cream counter in Babcock Hall.
State considering school for C-average students
SAN JUAN CAPISTRANO, Calif. — Everyone has heard of special schools for gifted students and special schools for slower pupils.
Now the local board is considering a charter school for the average students.
The Millennium Secondary School would focus on C-average students in grades six through 12.
"This is going to require strong marketing," said Pat Levens, executive director of secondary instruction for the Capistrano

Unified School District.
To work, the school would need about 800 students.
"It's aimed for the kid in the middle who doesn't make a connection, who doesn't participate in extracurricular activities and who, as a result of that becomes unmotivated," Levens said Monday.
Since many of those kids have trouble concentrating early in the morning, the new school would start classes later in the day.

those things.
Architect Alan Johnson, 56, estimates that the 200-foot-tall bell would cost about $1 million, including its creation, site preparation and the rental of sound and light systems for a year's worth of use.
So far, neither the city nor any private benefetor has come forward to pay for it.
Johnson has made a model of the bell in his basement and has projected historic scenes onto the inflatable model, including the invention of plastic, the toilet and the atom bomb. He proposes using the giant bell as a screen for displaying similar pictures.
"It's goofy," he said. "But what about the big ball that drops in New York?"
A tradition more than a century old is ending this year as Atlantic City's Easter Parade and Pageant moves indoors
Johnson said the bell could be built from polyester-reinforced vinyl, which is the same material used to make the Garfield and Bullwinkle balloons that appear in the annual Macy's Thanksgiving parade.
Parade moves from seaside to indoor Atlantic City mall
ATLANTIC CITY, N.J. — No more bonnets on the boardwalk.
Since 1876, thousands of women in bonnets and men in their Sunday best dress have paraded in front of waving crowds in this resort city. This year, organizers are holding the event in Atlantic City's only mall. The Shops at Ocean One, The Press of Atlantic City reported Sunday.
The move inside has angered purists.
Louise Johnson, 80, said the parade was part of Atlantic City history.
"it's ridiculous. I couldn't believe it when I heard," he said.
Atlantic City planning official Regina Armstrong said the indoor venue would eliminate the risk of bad weather and make it easier to judge the outfits.
Medical mix-up delivers wrong casket to funeral
DELRAY BEACH, Fla. — Edner Doirin
finally got to say goodbye to his late wife.
Because of a mix-up at the Palm Beach Medical Examiner Office, the bereaved widower attended a funeral for another woman March 13.
Doirin, of Rocky Mount, N.C., said Saturday that he knew when he saw the body in the open casket two Sundays ago that it was not his wife.
But on Saturday, the slight woman buried in the white chiffon dress, silk gloves and gold earrings was given a proper burial attended by her husband of two years.
Michaela Dienjueuvre, 25, of Port-au-Prince in Haiti, drowned March 6, along with other Haitian refugees, 26 miles off the coast of West Palm Beach in a botched smuggling attempt.
The funeral mix-up was blamed on a labeling error at the Palm Beach County Medical Examiner's office. Two employees were suspended because of the error.
High school reverses position on gay student's Prom attire
The 6-foot-plus Rice had worn women's clothing before, but this time he had to fight to wear a dress to the dance Saturday night.
PIERSON, Fla., — Charles Rice had on a perfectly matched outfit for the Taylor High School senior prom. He wore high-heeled shoes, a rhinestone necklace and a floor-length gown in red satin.
The principal at Taylor High School had said earlier in the month that Rice could not attend the dance in drag, citing concerns for the teen's safety and the potential for a disruption of the prom.
Rice, who is gay, said he thought he was being discriminated against because of his sexual orientation. He was in the process of hiring an attorney when the school reversed its decision last week.
Superintendent Bill Hall said decision was changed based on advice from school district attorneys who had said they were not in a favorable position legally.

Doherty to head Fighting Irish team
Kansas assistant noted for coaching, recruiting
By Kevin C. Wilson Kansan sportswriter
Matt Doherty, a highly sought-after Kansas assistant coach, was named the new men's basketball coach at Notre Dame yesterday.
“This is a very proud moment in my life. Everything that Notre Dame stands for, represents, is how I try to live my life,” Doherty said. “I’ve been planning for this for the last 10 years, and I’m ready to hit the ground running.”
Kansas coach Roy Williams, who recruited and coached Doherty when Williams was an assistant at the University of North Carolina, said that the Notre Dame job was a great opportunity for him.
"We're thrilled for Matt and his family, but we have mixed emotions ourselves," Williams said. "It says great things about our basketball program, but at the same time we're losing someone that's been extremely important to us and somebody that goes back a long,
long way with me. All of that is overwhelmed by how thrilled we are for him and his family."
Although Doherty does not have any experience as a head coach, Williams said he thought that it was the perfect job for his assistant and that he was pleased that Notre Dame was giving him a chance.
"I think that he fit what they were looking for, and Notre Dame fit what he was looking for," Williams said. "They are getting a guy who has no holes in his game. He can coach, he can recruit, he can deal with the alumni, he can deal with the media, he can deal with players on and off the court, he cares about the kids, and it's not just a nine-to-five job with him. He's got the whole package."
Doherty, 37, is best known as a master recruiter and has helped the Jayhawks sign nine McDonald's All-Americans. During his seven seasons, Doherty's duties included recruiting, scouting coordination and assisting in the day-to-day operations of the Kansas basketball program. Since arriving at Kansas in May 1993, Doherty has been a part of five conference championships, six NCAA tournament appearances and a Final Four in 1993.
Doherty replaces veteran coach John MacLeod, who posted a 106-124 (.461) record in eight seasons with the Fighting Irish and has had only three winning seasons since he took over. Notre Dame finished 14-16 last season and has not been invited to the NCAA tournament since 1990, but Doherty said he thought that he could help turn the program around.
"It is my job now to convince young men all over the country and all over the world that this is a great decision, to play basketball and attend the University of Notre Dame." Doherty said. "I wouldn't be here if I didn't believe this could be one of the top programs in the country."
Notre Dame Athletic Director Mike Wadsworth said that Doherty became a candidate for the job March 9, the same day MacLeod resigned and that he rep resented everything they were looking for in a new head coach.
"Matt brings to Notre Dame a tremendous basketball background based on his involvement with Dean Smith as a player at North Carolina and with Roy Williams as an assistant at Kansas," Wadsworth said. "He's extremely mature, he's very knowledgeable as far
as the game is concerned, and he has a proven track record as a recruiter. He's tremendously excited about the opportunity ahead of him here at Notre Dame. We talked to a long list of people involved in basketball, and we didn't find anyone who didn't think Matt Doherty possesses all the qualities you look for in a head basketball coach."
Doherty already has named one assistant, Doug Wojcik, a long-time friend who has been an assistant at Navy for the past nine years, and said he planned to round out his staff after the recruiting period was finished.
Doherty's departure means that Williams must find a replacement to add to his coaching staff that includes Neil Dougherty and Joe Hollady. He said he would like to promote from within but had to wait and see what the University wanted to do. According to Doherty, Williams should have no problem filling the vacancy.
"I had a job at KU that was better than 90 percent of the head coaching jobs in the country," Doherty said. "I'm sure his phone is ringing off the hook right now with coaches who want to come work for him."

Jayhawks rally, top Tigers 3-2

Last night was $ .25 hot dog night at Hoglund-Maupin Stadium. By the third inning the hot dogs were gone, and so appeared to be Kansas' chances of beating Missouri.
But the Jayhawks rallied for a 3-2 victory.

Missouri jumped out to a 2-0 lead against the 'Hawks as the Tigers scored two runs in the third inning.
The two runs appeared to be too much as Kansas only managed three hits in the first seven innings. After Philbrick left, sophomore Pete Smart came in and held the Tiger bats down.
Kansas starter Rusty Philbrick pitched six innings and struck out six but surrendered two runs, one on a Missouri double and one on a wild pitch.
"I like to be a part of a pitching duel," Smart said. "Russ pitched a great game, and our pitching staff really showed what it should be tonight."
Kansas' eighth inning started with a whimper. Freshman Jason Appuhn grounded out to the pitcher, and the Jayhawks appeared to be headed for a quick inning.
Sophomore second baseman Brandon O'Neal came up next and doubled down the left-field line, his second hit. Sophomore Doug Dreher followed O'Neal with a putt, putting the tying run on base.
Junior Brett Kappelmann, who was moved to third in the batting order in hopes of putting him in more RBI situations, stepped up to the plate next.
kappelmann made Coach Bobby Randall's shifting of the lineup look brilliant.
He tripled to right center, delivered two RBI and extended his hitting streak to 13 games.
Shortstop John Nelson came up next, still with one out, and pounded a single through the left side that scored Kappelmann.
"Kappelmann led the way right there and showed us how to do it," Nelson said. "He took the pressure off me, and with one out and the infield in, I knew I had to get him home."
Amost lost in the excitement of the eighth inning rally was the performance of Smart. In fact, the excitement was so much that it even confused Smart himself.
"I didn't even know it was the ninth inning; I thought it was the eighth." Smart said. "So I wasn't sweating it, but I asked Coach, and he said it was the ninth, so I went out there and tried to throw like I do every inning."
In the final inning he retired the Missouri hitters in order, including a strikeout that ended the game.
The two teams will hook up again this afternoon at 3 p.m. and conclude the twogame series.
The win marked the Jayhawks' second in a row and improved their record to 10-18, while Missouri fell to 14-13.

At his press conference to mark the start of spring practice yesterday, Kansas football coach Terry Allen spoke about "the little things" his team would need to do next season to avoid losing football games in the third and fourth quarters.
Those little things are what Allen and the rest of the Jayhawks will start focusing on today as the team begins its third spring practice with Allen.
"We had a very good off-season program with the things that we needed as far as strength improvements, but more so than that is the commitment standpoint." Allen said. "We are pleased and excited with that, and we have to just continue to grow with that."
As is the case with many college football teams embarking on a season full of expectations, the Jayhawks have many questions to be answered and many holes to be filled. However, Allen and the rest of his Jayhawks are confident that they can leave the spring as a better football team.
Kansas is intent on becoming one of the premier teams in the Big 12 Conference, but accomplishing this goal means knocking off power teams such as Nebraska, Kansas State and defending conference champion Texas A&M.
"We can beat Nebraska and Kansas State," cornerback Andrew Davison said.
"We can beat Nebraska and Kansas State," cornerback Andrew Davison said. Beating the top two teams in the Northern Division of the Big 12 may seem like a big step for a team that finished 4-7 overall and 1-7 In the conference, but the Jayhawks are confident that their rise to
power could be now.
power come be now.
"Look at who the other teams lost to graduation," linebacker Dariss Lomax said. "Texas doesn't have Ricky Williams anymore, and Nebraska — not to knock them — aren't as good as they used to be. To us, this conference is up in the air."
If Kansas is to achieve these goals, it will have to fill the holes left by nine starters lost to graduation. The Jayhawks were hit hardest on the offensive
line and on the linebacker corps, where they lost a total of seven starters.
"I think we actually might be better at linebacker this season." Allen said.
Allen's statement is partially based on the assumption that some team members will do better in the classroom. Lomax was academically ineligible last season after failing to achieve
PETER WALKER
Allen: Plans to focus team on the little things. '
after taking touchscreen the necessary academic standards. The inactivity, however, gave Lomax some time to think and prioritize academics.
"What I went through last year was definitely some tough times," Lomax said. "Not being out there with my team, I really learned who my friends were."
Lomax said he has rededicated himself in the classroom and is listed as one of four new starters at the position in addition to Tim Bowers, Andrew LeClair, and Algie Atkinson, who received substantial playing time last season as a freshman.

Commentary
Money-smart match-up gains Kansas experience, exposure
Spencer Duncan
sorts@kansan.com
It's funny what a difference a little thing like money can make.
It's true that this matchup seems a little lopsided and could have disastrous results. Think: Kansas vs. Florida State in 1993 (a 42-0 whooping), Kansas vs. Kansas State in 1995 (a 42-7 debacle) and the Titanic.
After weeks of talks, the Kansas football team inked a deal to play Notre Dame on Aug. 28 at the Eddie Robinson Classic in South Bend, Ind.
OK, stop laughing.
But the television exposure and experience Kansas will gain from will be invaluable, and give Kansas coach Terry Allen and his players credit for doing something that a dominant Kansas State refuses to do: schedule a non-conference opponent people have heard of.
More interesting among all this is that in the early 1990s there was no chance this match-up would have occurred.
Yet now, a few years later, with the promise of
You see, about nine years ago, Notre Dame thumbed its bible at the rest of college athletics and signed an exclusive five-year television contract with NBC. That deal led to a renewal years later and is now the reason why we must all suffer through every single Notre Dame game on NBC instead of the old Godzilla movies local affiliates once carried on Saturday afternoons.
a $600,000 payout, things have dramatically changed.
The deal Notre Dame signed angered college athletic directors around the country. You see, by signing an exclusive contract, Notre Dame, among other things, guaranteed a big paycheck for itself but shut out other schools from making money that could have been shared in an inclusive deal.
But I digress.
So the athletic directors grumbled. But the only director who did more than talk was Kansas'own Bob Frederick, athletics director.
In protest, Frederick canceled a home-and home basketball series that had been scheduled with the Fighting Irish.
All it really did was create tension between the schools...
with the Fighting in.
Obviously, the protest did little.
But what a difference that money makes
Now Kansas can make money from Notre Dame and so the teams will square off. Walking away from a game with at least $600,000 in the Jayhawk nocket is worth it, despite the score.
And who can blame Frederick for pushing the deal?
Notre Dame just wants to play a school it is pretty sure it can defeat and Kansas wants money, exposure and experience. Both teams
After all, Notre Dame's exclusive deal has not had many of the adverse long-term effects many thought it might. And time heals many wounds. Representatives at both schools say what happened nine years ago is mostly forgotten.
are winners.
But as much as the Athletics Department will say this game is about exposure and continuing the Kansas football tradition, it is also about money, and not just the $600,000 Kansas will get for traveling to South Bend.
There is hope that a game like this will renew interest in a football program that has had three consecutive losing seasons.
Kansas also has the lowest attendance of any team in the Big 12 Conference (yes, even worse than Baylor and Iowa State). Renewing interest in the team could help ticket sales, which would fill an empty stadium that the Athletics Department recently spent millions of dollars to renovate.
Now, isn't this match-up starting to make some sense?
Duncan is an Topeka senior in journalism and English.

HOROSCOPES
Todav's Birthday:
Take responsibility for your relationships this year and produce outrageous results. You're capable of more than before, so push. Call in old debts in May and hide the money away. A secret message from a friend can keep you on course in August. Don't act hastily in November or disruptively in December.
Aries (March 21-April 19): Today is a 7.
You should feel marvelous today, and you look fabulous. You'll attract all sorts of attention. Some of it is from your competition. Your opponents are starting to realize you're a force to be reckoned with, and they're right.
Taurus (April 20-May 20): Today is a 5.
Gemini (May 21-June 21): Today is a 7.
Tauris (April 20- May 20) Today is 8 a. Love and money don't necessarily go together, but in this case, it looks as if they do. You'll be making more money if you're in a job you love, for example. You may think such a job does not pay well, but that's not always true. Do what you love, and the money follows, remember?
Gemini (May 21- June 21): Today is a 7.
It's a marvelous day for romance but it may not go as planned. It looks as if there's a separation, and that doesn't seem like fun, but it certainly can make things more intense — and intensity can be great fun. All ends well, so don't fret.
Cancer (June 22-July 22): Today is a 4.
You may feel pulled every which way, but don't fall into a dither. Friends and loved ones can keep you or track. Set priorities so you know what to expect and what not to.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Today is a 7.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Today is a 7.
Should you stay or should you go? Should you accept an invitation that's close to home or one that's far away? It's pretty hard to choose, but if you wait a little while, the answer should become obvious.
Virago (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Today is a 5.
A fool and his money are soon parted. Don't let this apply to you. Money is a recurrent theme this week.
There are plenty of opportunities both to make it and lose it. It's a jungle out there, but exciting, and this is a game at which you have natural talent. So get out there and play, but be wary.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Today is a 6.
Your best route to fame and fortune today is through a partnership. Two can make all sorts of things happen. You're good when you're working by yourself, but you flourish when you've got somebody else encouraging you and stimulating your imagination. Today, such a person is likely to appear.
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Today is a 5.
You often get your way through a roundabout route, and today that could be the case again. You can lean on a person who owes you a favor, and he or she will call a friend, who calls a friend, and on and on down the line, until you get what you want. Today is good for starting that process
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Today is a 7.
You've put on a good showing this week and deserve a break. Schedule one for yourself and a few good friends. You might even want to call it a meeting because it'll be that, too. You'll be discussing important ideas and establishing valuable relationships. You'll also be having a great time.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Today is a 4.
You could get an excellent chance to advance in your career today. This opportunity is based on work you've done in the past and from relationships you've developed. You've built a good reputation, and that's why you're getting this chance. It could bring you more money, so give it a try.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Today is a 7.
A person you find attractive feels the same way about you. It may be difficult for you to get together, however, since there's quite a distance between you. Luckily, you can correspond, and that's the basis of your relationship. Continue to build that friendship, and see what happens naturally.
C
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Today is a 5.
Your quandary today probably has to do with money. How should you spend it? How should you budget it? Will there be enough to go around? It's one thing after another, but there will be plenty for a while.

NCAA granted stay in Proposition 16 case
The Jayhawks will face Big 1.2 opponent Nebraska at the Robinson courts on Saturday at 11 a.m.
PHILADELPHIA — A federal appeals court yesterday temporarily restored an NCAA regulation allowing its member schools to use minimum test scores to determine whether freshmen are eligible to participate in ath

letics.
In issuing the stay requested by the NCAA, a three-judge panel of the 3rd Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals put on
hold a lower-court ruling that struck down Proposition 16, the NCAA bylaw that dictated freshman eligibility requirements.
U. S. District Judge Ronald Buckwalter struck down Proposition 16 on March 8, ruling that minimum test score requirements have an "unjustified disparate impact on African Americans."
The ruling yesterday put the requirements back in place, at least temporarily. The NCAA said it needed a stay to gain more time to write replacement eligibility rules and file appeals.
NCA attorney David Bruton argued in court yesterday that there was considerable confusion among the NCAA's 302 Division I schools, which the rulner affects.
an alternative proposed that would achieve the level of success that Proposition 16 had achieved in setting academic requirements.
Bruton said there had not been
Attorneys for the four African-American athletes who filed the suit said the NCAA should adopt a nondiscriminatory eligibility policy rather than fight to delay or overturn the court's decision.
箭
Buckwalter's initial ruling did not completely rule out some use of the tests, which many educators have long said are racially and culturally discriminatory.
The athletes involved either have long since, or are near the end of their freshman year of eligibility.
Buckwalter declined to give the NCAA the extra time, but the appeals court granted the stay pending the NCAA's appeal.
Former Arkansas star chosen as UALR coach
LITTLE ROCK, Ark. — Sidney Moncrief was hired yesterday as the basketball coach at University of Arkansas-Little Rock, his first basketball job since retiring from the NBA in 1991.
Moncrief, who was born in Little Rock and led Arkansas to the Final Four in 1978, has never coached before. He replaces Wimp Sanderson, who resigned March 1.
"For the last 10 years, I've waited for the right opportunity. This is the right opportunity," said Moncrief, who has owned a car dealership in suburban Little Rock for 10 years.
The school announced his hiring at an afternoon news conference at the Little Rock River Market, across the Arkansas River from the new arena in which UALR will play next season.

UALR athletic director Rick Melo said Moncrief was the top candidate for the job.
ALR, a member of the Sun Belt Conference, went 1.2-1.5 last season. Moncrief's reputation and state connections are expected to be a big help in recruiting.
"We couldn't be more thrilled to have Sidney Moncrief as our basketball coach," Mello said. "We were extremely pleased with the quality of people who showed interest in the position, but to end up with Sidney Moncrief exceeds all of our expectations."
Moncrief, 41, played with former Arkansas coach Eddie Sutton and is the Razorbacks' second-leading career scorer and top rebounder. He spent 10 seasons in the NBA with the Milwaukee Bucks and one season with the Atlanta Hawks.

Test results to determine Wegner's football future
By Michael T. Rigg sports@kansan.com
Kansan sportswriter
Kansas quarterback Zac Wegner will decide his football fate today upon the results of his final tests, he announced at a press conference yesterday.
Wegner is awaiting results from tests he took in Topeka on Monday that judged the effects of the three concussions he suffered in the past year. Yesterday was the first day Wegner addressed members of the media since he suffered his last concussion against Kansas State on Oct. 30.
Wegner was administered the same tests that he received in January in Chicago, and the comparisons of the tests will determine whether Wegner can participate in spring drills. If he doesn't score better than he did on the tests in Chicago, then he will not be cleared to play. Wegner said.
Having already been partially cleared for non-contact drills, Wegner said the word he received tomorrow would be the definitive, final decision about his football career. If the
results of the tests don't improve. Wegner will quit football, a sport he has played competitively since seventh grade.
Wegner talked yesterday about the impact the concussion has had on his life. He said the time since he was helped off the field against Kansas State has been the toughest time of his life.
"When you get knocked out a couple of times, it's really scary," Wegner said. "My short-term memory hasn't been working as well, and when I used to work out, I'd get headaches. I don't want to be messed up for the rest of my life. I do have plans other than football. If they tell me tomorrow I can't play, then so be it."
Even with the results of the tests not known, head coach Terry Allen already is planning on having Wegner back for the opening of spring practice today.
opening it up in the spring." Allen said.
"Having Zac back allows us to do so many things as far as advancing the offense is concerned."
aslar as divinning the ordece is conformed Allen said yesterday that no quarterback would be subjected to contact during spring drills, so the wear on Wegner would be minimal if he were cleared.
Allen to replace some past starters
Continued from page 1B
"Algie is potentially a very good football player." Allen said. "We feel that group of linebackers will be very, very good."
The benefits of being one of the youngest teams in the conference could start to be seen this season. Many players will gain experience and look to break away from their backup roles and move into full-time starting positions.
Who the group will be blocking for, however, is still in question.
defensive line to the offensive line. "We'll have a lot of competition on the offensive line," Allen said. "However, we need to develop some cohesiveness there."
Allen will be forced to replace offensive line standout starters Dan Dercher, Justin Glasgow and Michael Lies, with as many as six players trying to fill the three spots. Among the potential new starters are Bob Schmidt and Ben Coleman, who was moved from the defensive line to the offensive line.
Starting quarterback Zac Wegner's fate will be sealed today, and Allen is content to stick with his running back tandem of David Winbush and Mitch Bowles. Allen said he would like to add Henri Childs to the list of Kansas ball carriers, so he also would receive substantial playing time in the spring.

Sports columnist viable candidate for assistant coach
Commentary
Now that Kansas assistant coach Matt Doherty has moved out from under Roy Williams' wing, I see two candidates Coach Williams should consider to replace Coach
the first is Ryan Robertson. The other is me. Robertson has a lot going for him. Even though he caught heat this season from fans about lacking team leadership, he knows the

earlier than desired, but he provided the Jay hawks with four years of solid guard play when they dominated the Big Eight and the Big 12.
Big 12.
Robertson was a McDonald's All-American, an Academic All-American and the creator of the Ryan Robertson right-arm-flex.
Robertson doesn't have much looking at him from the professional standpoint. Many players travel to Europe to seek careers when the NBA doesn't call.
Robertson could try Euro-ball, but he's too small for it. He'd get pushed around by some 6-foot-3, 250-pound guard named Dmitri. He would get trashtalk in three different languages, none of which he would understand.
I, on the other hand, am not an Academic AllAmerican, but I also can make a case for myself as the new assistant coach.
First. I need another job.
First, Treed and then you. The job sounds fun as well. Practicing basketball, going on road games, sitting on the bench, screaming my lungs out — all things I
already do. So I also have experience.
I didn't play in the Big 12, but I did play in the Chisolm Trail League where bench time allowed me to see how the assistant coach position works.
I also wouldn't be afraid to be a pioneer of assistant coaching. I would be the first assistant coach to read The University Daily Kansan while the away team was being introduced. I would wave when opponents fouled out. After a Kenny Gregory dunk, I would glare at the other bench and shout. "Who's your daddy?"
I also do a pretty good imitation of the Robertson right-arm-flex.
I don't have to worry about forsaking a professional basketball career, and all I ask for in payment is for someone to pay for my books.
So the more I think about it, the more obvious the choice.
Seth Jones for assistant coach. Coach Williams, you know where you can reach me.

The Kansas softball team's losing streak stands at six after dropping two games to NAIA powerhouse Oklahoma City, 4-3 and 6-1, yesterday in a doubleheader at Javakh Field.
Stolen bases hurt the Jayhawks in the first game.
Oklahoma City's four steals set up scoring opportunities throughout the game.
"They killed us." Coach Tracy Bunge said. "Stolen bases have been a problem all year long. We haven't even been consistent or inconsistent. We just haven't thrown anybody out."

Kansas took a 1-0 lead in the first inning of the second game when freshman center fielder Shelly Musser scored after a wild throw to third by the Oklahoma City catcher. Oklahoma City scored two runs on two wild pitches by junior pitcher Sarah Workman in the third inning and added four more in the fourth inning on two two-run home runs, which took the team to a 6-1 lead.

After 20 years of coming up short, the Kansas men's bowling team rolled a strike and advanced to the Intercollegiate Bowling National Championships for the first time in history.
The victory capped a regular season in which the team placed first out of 29 teams. It didn't just win though — it dominated, winning by 379 pins.
Bowling team reaches national championships
The Jayhawks captured their second tournament title of the year in winning the Midwest National Qualifier tournament in Chicago on March 20 and 21.
Jayhawks advance for the first time with 379-pin win
"Winning by so much was a lot of fun. We won a tournament this year barely, but to dominate like that was a lot of fun," junior Tom Partridge said.

Kansan sportwriter
Senior co-captains Jeff Ussery, Brian Schmidtberger and Scott Donner led the charge. Schmidtberger got the ball rolling for the team with a 290 in the opening game, while Ussery proved to be the most consistent Jayhawk, rolling a 206 average for the tournament. Rounding out the six-man squad were freshman Mike Keeler (202), Partridge (180) and junior Eric Tophern (165).
In one of the most rewarding seasons in Kansas bowling history, the Jayhawks have knocked off some of the nation's top teams.
Also contributing to the significance of the win was that three of the six rollers on the team are four-year seniors who have stuck with the program through all the adversity it has faced.
"Winning by so much was a lot of fun. We won a tournament this year barely, but to dominate like that was a lot of fun."
Tom Partridge Bowling team member
The men hope their success will continue as they head to the National Championships on April 20-24 at Wichita State University. Scoring will be done by using the Baker Format, where five bowlers roll one game together, alternating frames. If history holds true, then Kansas should make a strong showing because it has been successful each time the format has been used.
The championship field consists of the 16 best teams in the country, and the Jayhawks have aspirations to finish on top.
"I really like our chances," Partridge said. "The format benefits us, and the lane conditions are the same as last weekend, so it benefits us."
Coach Michael Fine agreed.
"We've done exceptionally well every time we've gone Baker this year, so it's a format we think favors us, so we're very optimistic about it," he said.

Game represents new low for NBA play
Congratulations are in order for the Boston Celtics and the Minnesota Timberwolves.
Although the T-Wolves won 87-68, both teams were part of the worst professional basketball game I ever have seen, which is a pretty big accomplishment. I had Diana Mavroicks season tickets in 1993-94, when the team won 13 of its 82 games.
Brandon Krisztal
sports@kansan.com
It was March 24. I was in the midst of having an extremely
spring break. Despite the fact that the greatness of the Boston Garden is no more, I had decided to watch two very talented young teams. To top things off, I was going to watch former Kansas All-American Paul
The Celtics are loaded with potential, but most coaches will tell you that potential means that they haven't done anything yet. All of the potential that Celtics Coach Rick Pitino's team has, translated into 30 percent shooting from the field.
Pierce campaign for the NBA's Rookie-of-the-Year award.
Boston captain Antoine Walker was an impressive 1-for-14 from the field. He was booed by Celtic faithful every time he touched the ball and finished with six points in the game. His former Kentucky teammate Ron Mercer was 6-for-20 from the floor, finishing with 13 points.
and the beloved Jayhawk shot 3-for-15 from the field in 36 minutes, leading all rookies in the game with 6 points. Game note — the only other rookie in the contest was Minnesota's Andre Patterson, from Indiana, who played two minutes for T-Wolves Coach Flip Saunders.
It was nice to see All-World (All Hype?) Kevin Garnett come to play.
I may "still love this game," but it's no thanks to the Celtics and the Timberwolves. All they did was make me appreciate the Final Four and the NCAA championship basketball game Monday.
He's listed at 6-11, but he's easily 7-1, and when you factor in his quickness, he is very hard to stop.
The Celtics and T-Wolves shot poorly, and their passing was even worse. It made me proud to go to a school that has a good basketball program that concerns itself with good team basketball.
To which my reply always would be, "Yeah, unless North Carolina still had Antawn Jamison and Vince Carter (NBA Rookie-of-the-Year), or if Kentucky still had Mercer, or if Georgia still had Stephen Marbury, or if Garnett, Kobe Bryant and Tracy McGrady had decided to go to college."
Because the NBA, or in this case NB-A'int, is nothing but one-on-one, the Celtics had no team defense and no answer for Garnett. He hit 10 of 20 shots and lead all of the scorers with 22 points and grabbed a game high 14 rebounds. Game note — Garnett did not play in the fourth quarter.
The only thing that might get the NBA's approval rating up is if his "Royal Air-Ness" decides to come back to the league.
It's interesting to see how quickly a Pitino-coached team can change its brand of basketball.
While on the subject of players returning, I am glad that the collegiate basketball season is finished for one reason. I was getting sick and tired of people saying "Man, KU would be No. 1 if we still had Paul."
So next year, when teams are a player short here and there, please don't complain because it's the way of the world.
Just be thankful for the players who played college basketball and provided excitement in this year's NCAA Tournament.

Sprewell refuses to drop lawsuit
The Associated Press
SAN FRANCISCO — Lattrell Sprewell isn't giving up a challenge to his 68-game suspension for choking coach P.J. Carlesimo, despite a federal judge's finding that the suit was a misuse of the court system.
Undaunted by a court order requiring him to pay the court costs of the NBA and the Golden State Warriors in getting the case dismissed, Sprewell will ask the 9th U.S. Circuit of Appeals to reinstate it, attorney Robert Thompson Jr., said Monday.
A lawyer for the NBA said Sprewell should be grateful for the results of the arbitration that he is challenging in his suit. The arbitrator cut Sprewell's suspension from a year to 68 games and overturned the Warriors' termination of the last three years of his contract.
"For choking the head coach the way he did, he should have been charged with a crime," league attorney Frank Rothman said. "I think he got off very light."
The $30 million suit accused the arbitrator of exceeding his authority in allowing both the Warriors and the NBA to punish Sprewell. The suit also claimed racial discrimination, noting that Phoenix Suns forward Tom Chambers, who is Caucasian was not suspended for punching an assistant coach a few weeks before Sprewell attacked Carlesimo.
U. S. District Judge Vaughn Walker first dismissed the suit last
factual claims were too vague to prove any legal violations. He said Sprewell should consider dropping the case but gave him one more chance to make his allegations more specific.
GOLDEN STATE
WARRIORS
In a ruling made public Monday, Walker said the refluffed suit was virtually the same as the first, meritless suit.
He invited the league and the team to submit statements of their attorneys' fees and expenses for the
dismissal motion.
Sprewell argued with Carlesimo during a practice in December 1997, then grabbed him around the neck and threatened to kill him, according to witnesses at his arbitration hearing. After Sprewell left the floor to shower, he returned and, according to witnesses, punched and again threatened Carlesimo.
The Warriors initially suspended him for 10 games, then terminated the last three years and $24 million of his contract. The league increased the suspension to a year. But arbitrator John Feerick ruled the punishment excessive and ordered Sprewell reinstated last July 1. He was later traded to the New York Knicks.
Broncos fans still hoping for John Elway's return
The Associated Press
DENVER — John Elway will retire from football financially secure and professionally revered.
It's just a matter of when.
"I don't think John is any more comfortable with retirement than most players," said Denver Broncos' owner Pat Bowlen, still awaiting word on Elway's future. "It's a difficult decision."
As he demonstrated during his MVP performance in Denver's second straight Super Bowl victory, Elway still has life left in his 38-year-old body.
The Broncos are hoping he returns for a 17th season but are not setting a deadline as they prepare to start offseason conditioning April 7.
"I don't think we're putting any pressure on him to make up his mind at any particular point in time," Bowen said. "Whenever that is, that's fine with us. I don't know where he's headed."
Elway's agent, Marvin Demoff, said he didn't expect Elway to keep the Broncos
waiting much longer.
"The only thing I know is that he'd like to make a decision early enough so that his training would be appropriate," Demoff said Monday. "If I had to guess, we're looking between the 15th of April and
the 15th of May, but that is pure speculation."
EASTERN HILLS
W h e n
E l w a y
announced his decision to return last June, he said he was 99.9 percent certain 1998 would be his last year. Pressed, Elway amended it to 100 percent.
But now that he won another Super Bowl, the question has surfaced again. Jay Leno unsuccessfully tried to get Elway to tip his hand last month, and radio talk show hosts and newspaper columnists offer arguments for and against retirement.
The debate always returns to one thing — the lure of becoming the first quarterback in NFL history to win three straight Super Bowls.
"If we were to win three in a row and he were the quarterback, it definitely establishes a new level," Bowlen said. "If you're the only quarterback in history to win three Super Bowls in a row, I think that sets you apart from the rest of the pack."
Last year, Elway received input from a variety of sources including his father, Jack, Hall of Fame catcher Johnny Bench and former Buffalo quarterback Jim Kelly.
No one's advice, however, meant more to Elway than that of his wife, Janet, and their four children — Jessica, 14; Jordan, 11; Jack, 9; and Juliana. 8. All encouraged him to keep playing, and family advice figures to be key again.
"I would think that's the biggest part of his decision," said Elway's personal aide, Kathy Hatch. "They're a very close family, so I know that's going to weigh very heavily on his decision."
Pettitte likely to start season on disabled list
The Associated Press
TAMPA, Fla. — New York Yankees' pitcher Andy Pettitte is expected to begin the regular season on the disabled list.
"It itseems pretty inevitable since I'm not pitching the first week," Pettitte said. "I just have to try and get ready. I'm trying to stay away from having any set-backs."
Yankees
The left-hander left his spring debut on March 7 after one iming
with a strained muscle in his throwing elbow.
Although final roster decisions are not expected until this weekend, team officials said there was a good possibility Pettitt would be placed on the disabled list.
Pettit pitched two innings in a minor league game Sunday and will throw again against minor leaguers Thursday or Friday.
"You have to pitch in games ... it's totally different," Pettitte said. "It's a matter of getting my pitch count up, I feel good, and I feel healthy."
Pettitte tilted 48 pitches during a 14-minute bulblen session westerday.
If placed on the disabled list, Pettitte's stay could be backdated 10 days from opening day, meaning he couldn't be activated until April 10.

Gretzky sets new record with Monday night goal
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Wayne Gretzky has achieved some 60-plus records during his 21-year hockey career. And this latest milestone could stand a long time.
Gretzky overtook Gordie Howe when he scored the game-winning goal Monday night in the New York Rangers' 3-1 victory against the New York Islanders.
This obviously is going to be a tough record for anybody to break," Gretzky said of his 1,072 career goals.
Gretzky's latest achievement is not considered a record
The staggering total, accumulated during 20 NHL seasons and one in the WHA, includes regular-season and playoff goals. Howe scored his total during his 26 years in the NHL and WHA.
Gretzky: Has scored 1,072 career goals
by the NHL because the league does not recognize the WHA. However, it remains very much a record in Gretzky's mind.
"I guess it won't be in the books." Gretzky said, "but people will sit around and talk about it."
It was yet another piece of hockey history Gretzky has stolen from Howe. Gretzky has long since broken Howe's NHL record of 801 goals for the regular season. Gretzky now has 894.
Although called "The Great One," Gretzky still thinks that nickname should
"Gordie is one of the classiest people the game could ever have," Gretzky said. "I've always said he's the best player to play the game. He's my idol."
belong to Howe.
Gretzky had 56 goals in the WAH with Indianapolis and Edmonton to go along with his overall total of 1,016 in the NHL.
Howe had 174 regular-season goals in the WHA with the Houston Aeros and New England Whalers. In the postseason, he had 28 goals, 20 with Houston.
"It was a nice goal at a nice time," Gretzky said.
Monday night's goal was a relief for Gretzky. At the same time, it helped the Rangers in the playoff race. They moved five points behind Boston for the eighth and final spot in the Eastern Conference. "It was a nice goal at a nice time," Gret
It was only the ninth goal of the season for Gretzky, who once scored a record 92 in one year with the Edmonton Oilers. And Gretzky thinks that's one of his records that is still assailable.
"When I got 92 goals, there was a stretch of a few games there where I didn't score," Gretzky said. "《Philadelphia's Eric》 Lindros and (Pittsburgh) the Jaromie} Jagr, they have a shot at the 92. Everything has to go right."
Gretzky remembers when he first started out as a professional, with Indianapolis at age 17.
anaportageagreement.
"I was just happy to be playing hockey professionally." Gretzky said.
"I first goo!"
His first goal?
It's his goal:
"It wasn't very pretty," he recalled. "It was just a backhand from the slot on a 2-on-2."
Now, 1,071 goals and 20 seasons later,
Gretzky stands alone.
Chiefs talk with Warren Moon
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Free agent Warren Moon needs a job, and the Kansas City Chiefs need another backup quarterback. Now, Moon and the Chiefs have talked about what they might be able to do for each other.
right now," Peterson said, referring to Elvis Grbac and Todd Collins, "and you never start the season without three."
The Associated Press
Moon, 42, spent Monday in Kansas City talking with president and general manager Carl Peterson, head coach Gunther Cunningham, offensive coordinator Jimmy Raye and quarterback coach Tom Rossley.

happens."
Moon, a 15-year
Moon, a 16-year veteran with Houston, Minnesota and Seattle, no longer commands the kind of salary that once made him among the highest-paid quarterbacks in the NFL. He left Houston for Minnesota and a three-year package worth $15 million, but then went to Seattle as a backup on a two-year deal worth $1.65 million.
"He's not overly interested in salary," Peterson said. "He's interested in a place where he feels it's a good organization where he can finish his career and contribute in some fashion."
in 1980, while with Houston,
he threw for 521 yards — the
second most in NFL history —
in a 27-10 victory against the
Chiefs at Arrowhead Stadium.
the nine-time Pro Bowler finished 1998 ranked third in NFL history in career attempts (6,785), completions (3,972) and yards (49,979) and tied for fourth in touchdowns (290).
Computers link golfers off the course
The Associated Press
PONTE VEDRA BEACH, Fla. Other than their clubs, the most important piece of equipment golfers take on tour these days may be a computer aimed at making life easier for these independent contractors.
10-year extension with IBM as one of its corporate sponsors. IBM has been in charge of the elaborate scoring system since 1983, and Finchem was interested in taking technology to the players.
John Cook uses it to commit to tournaments. Phil Milkelson spends time on airplanes checking out the best restaurants in the city where he is going. Lanny Wadkins has an idea whether to expect rain or shine before he even arrives at an event.
And all of the nearly 200 players connected through "PGA Tour Links" no longer need a meeting with commissioner Tim Finchem to air their complaints, just the push of a button on their IBM ThinkPad.
"We started to focus on the question how we might use new technologies to impact not just the business lives of our players but also the ability to communicate effectively with our membership and our players," Finchem said.
PGA Tour Links grew out of the tour's
Two years of research was followed by about six months of testing with a core group of 20 players representing a wide range of computer expertise, from Generation X to Generation Smith-Corona.
In January, the tour and IBM began rolling out the program by giving a Thinkpad to every exempt player on tour. Finchem wants the Senior Tour players to be linked by next year.
"One of the things we are proudest of is we are the first major sport that has been able to Internet-connect to all of our players," Finchem said.
Tour officials say 90 percent of the players are logging on to the "Links" for about an hour a day.
"I knew very little about computers before this program," Billy Adlerade said. "I think it's fantastic. Now, after finishing a round, instead of turning on the TV, I go online and read my hometown paper (The Providence Journal)."
Finchem says about 30 percent of the players are entering tournaments through Tour Links instead of by phone, but the potential applications are limitless.
Players can check their stock performances or check their ranking for greens in regulation.

Three Hockey East clubs make finals
Tough conference credited for Frozen Four monopoly
The Associated Press
BOSTON — Maine hockey coach Shawn Walsh is looking forward to seeing two of his closest rivals at the NCAA hockey championships despite having to fly to California to do it.
"It's about competing against people you respect." Walsh said of the Black Bears' meeting with Boston College and New Hampshire at the Frozen Four.
This year's tournament marks the first time Hockey East has sent three teams to the final four. The last time one conference sent three schools was in 1992 when Lake Superior State, Michigan State and Michigan went from the Central Collegiate Hockey Association.
While it is unusual, the New England coaches said they were not surprised three teams were making the cross-country trip from New England to Anaheim.
“Our team was prepared for North Dakota and Northern Michigan by playing in our league,” York said. “In particular, the games with Maine and UNH helped our club.”
"If we look at the league this past year and see how it's going, we're never going to be embarrassed by our 11 losses," said Boston College coach Jerry York, whose team went 27-11-4. "I think our league this year is very competitive."
"It's really going to be the best of five," Walsh said. "We have had four games against them. We know about each other, and we're balanced. California adds a little spice to it."
The Eagles, who last won the tournament in 1949, play Maine in the semifinals Thursday. Last year, Boston College lost to Michigan 3-2 in overtime in the championship game.
loston College relied on its Hockey East experience to win two differently styled games. The first was a physical 2-1 victory against Northern Michigan in the opening round and then a skillful 3-1 defeat of North Dakota in the second round of the West Regionals in Madison, Wis.
Escpecially for Maine's Steve Kariya, whose older brother, Paul, played for Maine and now is the captain of the Anaheim Mighty Ducks.
Boston College and Maine — which is making its first appearance in the NCAA tournament since the school was put on probation three years ago because of NCAA violations — split their previous four meetings this season.
"Anytime you have an older brother who is one of the greatest players in the world, you have to give to motivation," Walsh said. "I'm sure Steve is picking Paul's brain (about the
Steve made a name for himself with three goals and three assists Saturday and lead the Black Bears past Clarkson 7-2 in the second round of the East Regional.
tournament)."
Michigan State (29-5-7) and New Hampshire (30-6-3) play in the second game Thursday night. The two schools last met in 1982 in a first-round series in the tournament. New Hampshire won both games and advanced to the semifinals.
New Hampshire, which lost 4-0 last year in the semifinals to Michigan, is the only team among the four schools never to have won the national title.
"Coming from top to bottom, it has really helped, as a league, the type of players we have," Umile said. "It's just good competition within the league. But it's that way nationally." Walsh agreed.
New Hampshire coach Richard Umile knows that a tough conference season prepared his team for the tournament, but he doesn't think New Hampshire is getting a break playing the outsider at the Hockey East invitational.
Walsh agreed. "I don't think you should get too carried away with it," Walsh said. "(Michigan State coach Ron Mason) has always said to me, 'Our league is better.' But really, every league has got some good teams and weaker teams."
U.S. to play the Davis Cup without Agassi, Sampras
The Associated Press
BIRMINGHAM, England — There's no Pete Sampras or Andre Agassi. Still, captain Tom Gullikson insists he has his "A" team when the United States plays Britain in the Davis Cup.
Todd Martin, Jan-Michael Gam bill and Jim Courier are a combined 13-2 against British stars Tim Henman and Greg Rusedski in tournament play. They also are the top three Americans in terms of match victories on the ATP Tour this year.
And even with Britain enjoying the advantage of sellout home crowds, Gullikson thinks he won't miss the two biggest U.S. names — Sampras and Agassi — when the three-day event begins Friday
"We certainly wanted them to play," Gulikson said during practice at the National Indoor Arena. "They're not playing. That's their loss as I see it."
The United States also has won the 12 Davis Cups matches in which Courier has actually played.
"A' stands for America," Gullikson said. "These guys have played everywhere this year, and they are the in-form Americans on the tour. This is our 'A' team definitely.
"It's not really disappointing. We don't want players here who don't want to be here. On the other hand, we've got four terrific tennis players who are very, very committed to being on the Davis Cup team.
"Pete has not had a great start to the year, so it is not a big advantage that he is not taking part," he said. "On the other hand, Todd Martin's performances this year have been better than ever."
"Certainly, Gambill beat Sampras and Agassi on the tour at Scottsdale. Todd Martin has worked his way back into the top 10 this year, winning at Sydney and reaching the quarterfinals of the Australian Open and Indian Wells. He's playing excellent tennis. Jim Courier made the final at Memphis but was injured in the semifinal."
the first time.
- rete's comments are ridiculous,
  and I am surprised that such a great player should take it upon himself to make them," Lloyd said
the first time.
"Martin and Courier have both played well in Davis Cup for us since I have been captain, and this is my sixth year," Gullikson said. "They have been very loyal."
"As far as I am concerned, Greg has got a British passport, and so he is British. He plays very well for his country, and he is very patriotic.
Martin and Courier have played more than a dozen times for the United States and clearly have more experience than Henman and Rusedski, both highly ranked but playing World Group Davis Cup for
"Also, the United States is a very multinational country. There are people from many different nations living there, and you don't have to look very far back to find links to other countries."
"The Davis Cup and the Grand Slams are the two reasons I get up every morning and strap on my shoes to practice," the former French Open champion said.
British captain David Lloyd agreed that Sampras' absence didn't weaken the American team.
Lloyd also dismissed Amspras' lighthearted remark that Ruselski shouldn't be on the British team because he was born in Canada.
Britain is back in the top 16 for the first time since 1928 when it began a nosedive, sinking to the European Zone Two relegation round.
The British are trying to beat the Americans for the first time since 1935, during the Fred Pervera
Henman and Rusedski both gained top 10 rankings a month ago. The next best player on the British team is Miles Maclaglen, who is 295th.
Royals beat Phillies 5-4 in preseason
CLEARWATER, Fla. — Glendon Rusch, on the bubble for a spot in the starting rotation, pitched five strong innings and led the Kansas City Royals to a 5-4 victory against the Philadelphia Phillies yesterday.
The Associated Press
ering his ERA from 5.79 to 5.21
Rusch (1-1), a third-year left-
hander who is batting four oth-
ers for two open spots in the rotation,
limited the Phillies to six hits and two runs. He struck out three and walked one while low-
from 5.79 to 5.21
Rusch's only mistake came in the first, when Rolten hit a two-run homer.
Scott Leius gave the Royals (20-7) a 3-1 lead in the fourth with a three-run home off Phillies starter Paul Spoljaric. With one out, Jermaine Dye and Rex Sanchez singled before Leius hit a 1-2 pitch over the left-field wall.
R
Royals
Spoliaric continued to struggle a day after he was named the No. 5 starter. The left-hander allowed four runs and seven hits in five innings. He struck out three and walked four.
In six starts this spring, Spoljaric is 0-2 with a 5.55 ERA, allowing 15 runs and 30 hits in 24 1/3 innings.
Joe Randa hit a leadoff homer off Spoljaric in the fifth to make it 4.2.
Trailing 5-2 in the ninth, the Phillies scored two runs off Royals closer Jeff Montgomery. Marlon Anderson singled in a run and罗len had an RBI player's choice.
Dye had two hits for the Royals, who have won six of seven and are 20-7 in the Grapefruit League. Anderson and Brogna had three hits each for the Phillies (12-13), who have lost five of eight.
Phillies catcher Mike Lieberthal extended his hitting streak to 15 games.
