Listserv regulation unclear
(USPS 630-640)
Partisan messages cause for removal
By T.J. Johnson and Nadia Mustafa

and nmustafa@kansan.com
Kansan staff writers
A new round of arguments erupted yesterday about e-mail messages posted on the Student Senate listserv that addressed campaign issues and figures from past elections.
Jason Fizell, Delta Force candidate for student body president in 1997, and Scott Sullivan, Unite student body president last year, who defeated Fizell in the 1997 election, both KU graduates, posted messages on the Senate listserv about the 1997 campaigns.
The messages sent by Fitzell and Sullivan prompted a message from student body vice president Scott Kaiser, who threatened to remove people from the
listserv who discussed campaigns or coalition politics.
Kaiser said that he would remove listserv members who continued to post partisan messages.
Many student senators agreed that some controls should be placed on the listserv but some said those rules should be written down before being enforced.
Seth Hoffman, Nunemaker senator and Delta Force candidate for student body president, said that the decisions on listserv rules should not be made and enforced by just one person.
"There's no written policy on the listserv, and I think it's really up to the whim of the vice president. Something should be written," Hoffman said.
Kaiser said that as student body vice president he was in charge of running the listserv and could enforce rules to control it.
"As it stands right now, there are no rules, so I make the rules," Kaiser said. "Over the summer, it would be appropriate to have some rules made."
Kaiser said that his temporary answer to arguments about his regulation of behavior on the listserv was to treat it in the same way as behavior in the Student Senate office.
"This is a continuation of a longstanding Senate office policy to keep a non-partisan atmosphere." Kaiser said.
Dede Seibel,
Nunemaker senator
and YOU candidate
for student

regulations.

"There are some basic rules that were put out on the listserv at the beginning of the year by Vice President Kaiser," Seibel said. "It basically goes back to free speech, and you can't regulate that, but there are
Kaiser;Said he would remove partisan-san message writers
rules and guidelines that have been set but not formally passed."
Honnan said that this was not the first time this year that Kaiser had threatened to censor listserv users. Hoffman agreed with Kaiser that some formal regulations should be put in place.
Julie Numrich, Senate executive chair, also agreed that regulations were needed.
"This summer in Student Senate it was brought up, but nothing ever came to fruition," Numrich said. "The regulations are something I would tell next year's StuEx chair to put in."
Numrich said that the listserv had been much calmer this year, with fewer personal attacks and less discussion of campaign politics.
"I don't think there has been a need for more actual regulations," she said.
Numrich also said that it would be hard to enforce rules on people such as Fizell and Sullivan, who are no longer at the University.

Fraternity appeals hazing suspension

Kansan staff writer
Members of one fraternity are hoping that after today they will be able to regain their privileges and be in good standing with the University of Kansas.
Alpha Tau Omega fraternity, has been on indefinite suspension since a hazing incident in October 1997. Today is the first opportunity for the group's members to appeal its suspension.
Craig Hartman, Alpha Tau Omega fraternity president and Prairie Village sophomore, said that since the group's suspension, fraternity members had abided by the probation sanctions mandated by the University.
The suspension included requiring fraternity participation in meetings and educational opportunities that were optional for other Greek organizations.
Nelson said that one of the privileges the University took from the chapter was its ability to hold social functions that served alo
"There is no hazing going on here anymore," he said.
Bill Nelson, director of greek programs, said that the fraternity had lost privileges as a result of the probation and that greater responsibilities had been placed on the chapter.
hol.
Hartman said that since the suspension all members of the group had worked hard to comply with the sanctions.
"We've made a complete turnaround from where we were," he said.
The vice chancellor of student affairs, James Kitchen, with the help of several suspension liaisons that have worked with the fraternity, will evaluate the chapter and determine its future status.
Hartman said that the group had not lost any new members this year and that the fraternity's grade point average had improved each of the four semesters it had been on suspension.
Nelson said it could take several weeks for the University to make a decision on the fraternity's future.
He also said that once the group was not on probation, he expected membership recruitment to be easier.
Members of the fraternity are hopeful that the University accepts their appeal, which is expected to be submitted today and that they are removed from suspension.
"It will be great for us if the University accepts the appeal," Hartman said. "We will be able to get involved in campus activities again."
Meetings honor partnership with Costa Rica

Costa Rica is a country that most University of Kansas students might have trouble pointing out on a map, but this weekend the University will celebrate its 40-year partnership with the country.
One highlight of the symposium will be a speech by former Costa Rican president and 1987 Nobel Peace Prize winner Oscar Arias Sanchez at 8 p.m. Thursday in Budig Hall.
"Costa Rica: Democracy Environment and Peace," is a symposium that will take place today, tomorrow and Saturday at Budig Hall, Spencer Museum of Art and the Kansas Union.
Kenneth Rohquett, Cardago, Costa Rica, sophomore and member of the exchange program, said that he would try to attend Arias' speech.
"He's one of the most important figures in Costa Rican politics," Roquhuet said. "I was really young
when he was president, but he projected an incredible national image for Costa Rica in the '80s, and he still does today."
The arrangement with the University of Costa Rica is the oldest partnership between a university in Latin America and the United States.
Part of the reason for the stability of the University's exchange program with Costa Rica is the extraordinary stability within the country itself. The country has not had military forces since it abolished its army in 1948 after a civil war.
This is the 40th anniversary of the University's student exchange program with University of Costa Rica in San Jose although formal exchanges took place as far back as 1946.
"Costa Rica is an extraordinary

Members of the symposium planning committee had difficulties finding enough financing. The committee had little money until members found donors to support the program.

All of the evening symposium speeches are free and open to the public. Registration is required for daytime events and costs $10 for students and $45 for faculty. Registration will be from 7 to 8 ontight at Budig Hall and from 8 to 3:08 tomorrow morning at the Kansas Union.

American troops missing along Yugoslav border during mission
The Associated Press
An immediate search and rescue mission was launched, involving ground and helicopter teams from several NATO countries and the Allied Rapid Reaction Corps based in the Macedonian capital of Skopje, U.S. officials said. Searchers included 80 to 90 soldiers on U.S., British, French and Italian helicopters.
WASHINGTON — Three U.S. Army soldiers were missing in Macedonia near the Yugoslav border last night after possibly being captured by members of the Serb military or police while on a reconnaissance mission, the Pentagon and NATO officials said.
The Army team had been on a daytime reconnaissance mission in the Kumanovo area, about three miles from the southern Yugoslavia border when they reported "they received small arms fire and said they were surrounded," according to NATO.
NATO officials didn't say who had surrounded the soldiers, but Col. Richard Bridges, a Pentagon representative, said it was presumed to be Serb Army troops, paramilitary units or perhaps special police forces.
After more than half a day and half a night of an intensive search effort, the Pentagon said U.S. and NATO forces were facing a difficult terrain and environment.
Searchers were unable to find the missing team's vehicle, which had been traveling on a civilian road during part of the reconnaissance mission, U.S. officials said.
facing a difficult terrain and the search will continue until we find them or until we have some idea where they are." Bridges said. "It's pretty rough out there."
Asked if the soldiers' captors might have taken them over the border into the Serbian portion of Yugoslavia, Bridges refused to speculate. But he said U.S. search teams were not expected to enter Yugoslavia, which is now under NATO attack.
"Right now there's a ... concentrated ground search," Bridges said.
"They're not going to cross the border," he said.
They're not going to cross the border. The missing team was one of several Army units guarding the Yugoslav-Macedonia border during the ongoing NATO air strikes against the Serb military in Yugoslavia.
several of the teams had been out on a reconnaissance mission yesterday afternoon together, but had split up to engage in some rough terrain training, the Pentagon said.
The urgent radio cries for help came between 2:30 p.m. and 3 p.m. Madagascar time (6:30 to 7 a.m. CST), the Pentagon said.
At the White House, National Security Adviser Sandy Berger advised President Clinton of the missing soldiers "and will keep him informed as the information becomes available," said NSC representative David Leavy.
"We're still determined to push forward on our sustained air campaign and the operation will continue" against military targets in Yugoslavia, Leavy said.
NATO forces, including ground and helicopter teams, and Macedonian police immediately launched a search for the missing team, U.S. officials said.
missing team, U.S. officiates said.
The Army reconnaissance team was a part of the former U.N. peacekeeping operation in Macedonia called "Able Sentinel," which ended in February, Bridges said.
The force of about 1,200 troops included about 350 Americans, who remained in the region following the March 24 start of NATO air strikes in Yugoslavia against Serb military targets.

Oklahoma couple gives $150,000 to University
An Oklahoma couple donated $150,000 to the Lied Center and two other projects at the University of Kansas, said Diane Silver, news editor for the KU Endowment Association.
richard and Jeanneette Sias of Edmond, Okla., designated $100,000 of the donation to the Lied Center Performance Fund. Half the remaining $50,000 will go to the Agnes Brady Scholarship Fund, and the other half will help pay for the symposium "Costa Rica: Democracy, Environment, and Peace," which begins today and concludes Saturday.
The Sias' gift completes a drive to raise $500,000 for the Lied Center Performance Fund, which makes possible appearances at the Lied Center by well-known performers.
Richard Sias said that he knew that arts financing was the hardest to raise, so he and his wife decided to donate to the Performance Fund.
His interest in Spanish prompted the gift to the Agnes Brady Scholarship Fund, which was set up to give scholarships to students planning to teach Spanish. Brady is a former associate professor of romance languages at the University, and Sias took Spanish classes from her.
Civil Engineering Fund willed $50,000 of estate
This weekend's symposium celebrates more than 40 years of exchanges of faculty and students between the University and the University of Costa Rica in San Jose.
Doug and Judy Hall of Kansas City, Mo., have willied $50,000 of their estate to the Civil Engineering Fund at the KU Endowment Association.
He said he credited the late Donald Haines, KU professor of engineering, with helping him professionally.
Doug Hall is a 1965 graduate of the University of Kansas and president of Musselman and Hall Contractors of Kansas City, Mo.
"What I learned, particularly from Professor Haines, was a kind of professional attitude about engineering and how engineers conduct themselves," Hall said. Hall is a member of the Elizabeth Watkins Society, which honors donors of planned gifts. He also is a life member of the KU Alumni Association.
Judy Hall is the executive vice president and CEO of Musselman and Hall.

jazz concert benefits women's care center
The KJHK benefit jazz concert, KJ Can Jazz, which took place Tuesday night at the Granada, 1020 Massachusetts St., didn't pack the house, but money and food were donated.
The benefit raised $74 in cash and stockpiled between 400 and 500 cans of food, said Brandy Ernzen, KJHK promotions director. The donations will be given to the Women's Transitional Care Center in Lawrence.
The station only had about two days to put out effective advertisements, which included radio promotions and pastel sidewalk chalk announcing the event.
Although the turnout was relatively low, with only about 75 people in attendance, Emzen said that she was pleased with the numbers, taking into consideration that the benefit occurred so soon after spring break.
"If you're going to Padre Island, the last thing you are going to think about is the KJHK benefit show," she said, explaining how advertising before the break wouldn't have been very effective.
Although the Granada wasn't full,
Ernzen thought the handful that did
attend had a good time.
"By the end there were quite a few people dancing," she said. "And the bands put on an excellent performance."

NATO search includes air, ground teams
Continued from page 1A
Clinton has counseled from the beginning of the air strikes against Yugoslav President Slobodan Milosevic that Americans would be put at risk during NATO operations.
Last Saturday, an F-117A stealth fighter went down near Belgrade, the Yugoslav capital, after the plane was apparently hit with a Serb anti-aircraft missile. It was the first time the radar-evading aircraft had gone down in combat.
PETER PARKER
The American pilot was rescued six hours later.
Before the soldiers were reported missing, NATO widened its air assault, pounding Serb targets near a major Kosovo city yesterday and vowed "no sanctuary" for Yugoslav forces attacking ethnic Albanians.
Russia backed its disproval of the NATO campaign with a show of force yesterday, saying it was dispatching several warships to the Mediterranean and putting others on standby.
Milosevic;Could be indicted for Kosovo war crimes
ON CAMPUS
With hints from Western diplomats that NATO bombs and missiles could soon be rained down on the Yugoslav capital of Belgrade, NATO representative Jamie Shea yesterday reiterated the alliance's insistence that Yugoslav security forces are bent on purging Kosovo of both ethnic Albanians and their culture.
Shea said Yugoslav forces were destroying archives including property deeds, marriage licenses, birth certificates and financial records.
The Yugoslav war crimes tribunal said yesterday it had indicted Serb paramilitary leader Zeliko Raznatovic for Bosnian war-era atrocities
— an announcement seen as a warning signal to Milosevic about what legal action awaits him and other Yugoslavs for their actions in Kosovo.

YOU claims Fizell helped campaign
Alleged exchanges with Delta Force prompts complaint
By Nadia Mustafa and T.J. Johnson
nmustafa@kansan.com
johnson@kansan.com
Kansan staff writers
In a move that some student senators claimed was political maneuvering, members of the YOU coalition filed a complaint reminiscent of similar campaign accusations during Senate elections two years ago.
Ben Walker and R.J. Woodring
YOU incumbent candidates for Nunemaker senators, accused the Delta Force coalition yesterday of consulting with Jason Fizell, KU graduate and former Delta Force president, for campaign advice.
10
Fitzell: Is accused of helping with Delta Force campaign
According to the elections code, coalitions that seek help from non-students must pay a "fair market value" for the consulting, and report it to the elections commission.
Walker did not talk to any Delta Force member about his suspicions, but he said that Delta Force did not include Fizell's alleged services on its initial expense report.
"We have a lot of circumstantial stuff, but no smoking gun,"
Walker said, "I haven't heard anything in specific."
But, Walker claimed that Fizell recently had shouted about campaign issues in the Senate office and was listed as a "friend of the force" or a Delta Force supporter on the coalition's Web site (www.ukans.edu/-dforce).
Also, Walker said, the Web site contained a picture of Fizell at the Delta Force kickoff party last month.
in addition, Walker accused Fizell of talking with Seth Hoffman, Delta Force candidate for student body president, and Partha Mazumdar, incumbent Delta Force candidate for graduate senator.
Fizell, who is a student services specialist at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, could not be reached for comment.
Hoffman denied that Delta Force sought campaign advice from Fizel. He said Fizel was a friend of his, not a consultant.
"There's some more detective work to be done," Hoffman said. "He's not doing any work for us. YOU is trying to put a blemish on Delta Force. It is completely obvious that it's political maneuvering. It dashes my hopes for a clean campaign."
Walker said that he had the same information a month ago but denied that the complaint had anything to do with coalition politics. He said that he had not purposely waited until two weeks before the election to file the complaint, but that discussion about past campaign abuses on the Senate listserv yesterday served as a catalyst for the complaint.
After the 1997 Senate elections,
Scott Sullivan, Unite student body president-elect and Mike Walden, Unite student body vice president-elect, were fined more than $1,000 for accepting campaign advice from a Travis Harrod, a non-student.
The elections commission will begin its investigation today and conduct a hearing Monday.
If the allegations are proven to be true, the commission can take any action it determines fit.
Jen Watkins, elections commissioner, said that she hoped the matter would be resolved before the elections on April 14 and 15.

Annual pride celebration begins tonight with theater's production
It's time for free condoms, drag queens, Fred Phelps and more. Today begins Queens & Allies annual Pride Week celebration. Spanning April 11-17, Pride Week is something of a misnomer. This year the organization has scheduled about a month of events, bringing to the forefront issues of the sexual minority and the differently gendered.
“Pride Week” was known as “Awareness Week” until two years ago, when organizers decided that the University of Kansas populace was ready to deal with the lesbiag community showing a little pride and sharing more of itself. Rightly so, as the celebration has grown from a few speakers and a dance to a much larger gathering of
A week of events has evolved into month of panels, shows by Queers and Allies.
the queer community from throughout the state.
The first event begins tonight and runs through Saturday. University Theater is putting on "Hidden A Gender." This was written by last year's Pride Week keynote speaker, Kate Bornstein, and is sure to play games with any preconceived notions about gender. Bornstein will perform again April 5 through 10.
The two headlining speaker's for this year's Pride Week, themed "A
Week of One's Own," continue the tradition of pioneering speakers that the University has welcomed.
The first is Riki Anne Wilchins, cofounder of the transgender group Transexual Menace. Insightful and hilarious, she'll be dishing up complex theory and zany anecdotes on April 13.
Lesla Newman will speak April 15. An established author in the realm of lesbian relationships, she is best known as the author of the controversial and acclaimed "Heather has Two Mommies."
Other events, from movies to panels and, of course, a drag show, also are scheduled between now and April 17. For a complete list of events, contact KU Queers & Allies at 864-3091.

Kevorkian jury made right decision
Jack Kevorkian was found guilty of second-degree murder Friday in the death of Thomas Youk, a terminally ill man suffering from Lou Gehrig's disease. Although the verdict should be applauded, it is important to separate the message from the messenger.
The decision by the Michigan jury was a correct one. We live in a society governed by the rule of law, and Kevorkian broke the law when he administered the lethal solution to Youk. Kevorkian knew that he was breaking the law. By physically injecting the final dose, Kevorkian crossed the legal divide that had been his savior in previous trials. The jury had no other choice but to find him guilty.
In the past, Kevorkian was seen as
The doctor knowingly broke the law when he delivered a lethal solution to a patient.
a noble crusader for the rights of people seeking to end their lives. By beaming this last death across the world on 60 Minutes, Kevorkian turned his quest for justice into a laughable affair. He jostled the issue of physician-assisted suicide from top billing and inserted himself.
Further, by representing himself at trial, Kevorkian compromised the legitimacy of his struggle. In the past, Kevorkian could count on the prominent attorney Geoffrey Fieger to highlight the need for reform. Now, he can only depend on his less-
than-sterling speaking skills
The guilty verdict also sets in motion what will possibly be the Supreme Courts' biggest challenge since Roe v. Wade. As one of the great moral conundrums left for the High Court, the issue of physician-assisted suicide must be dealt with in a concise and thorough manner. Regardless of the outcome, the issue must be addressed. In this arena, both advocates and opponents of physician-assisted suicide will get what they have been seeking: closure.
By waging a self-serving and ridiculous battle against Michigan prosecutors, Kevorkian lowered the credibility of those fighting hard for this volatile issue. By finding him guilty, the Michigan jury did the right thing. They decided in favor of the law.

Senate campaigns tout the same tired message

opinion @ kansan.com
When there is nothing to fight about, they fight about nothing. YOU and Delta Force will undoubtedly groan about the petty partisanship. Maxwell already has said that as far as he is concerned "Delta Force isn't even out there."
It started this January with shocking allegations of candidates using non-partisan Student Senate phones and fax machines to do some campaign work. The estimated cost to students ranged into the hundreds of cents.
The University's election '99 will pit the YOU coalition headed by presidential candidate Korb Maxwell and vice-presidential running mate Dede Siebel against a Delta Force ticket led by Seth Hoffman for president and Mary Liu for vice president. Both coalitions will struggle mighty to convince students of two things and both will fail. The first is that there are substantive differences between the two groups and the second is that students should care about them.
In fact, it's doubtful that either side fundamentally objects to any part of the other's platform. Most of the disagreement probably will be about the details of recreation expansion and corporalization.
the swarps of candidates handing out brightly colored leaflets. The coupon-wielding old men we have become adept at ignoring will seem like good practice. Just remember the rule: head down and hands in pockets.
Liu also prefers that the campaign involve "no backstabbing, no smear campaigning, no harassment" — although she has failed to communicate this to her partner at the top of the ticket. On the same night, according to Kansan accounts, Hoffman declared that there had been "enough" white, male, Greek, political science majors leading Student Senate — a thinly veiled attack on Maxwell. What Hoffman lacks in argument, he makes up for with adjectives.
Because the election will not revolve around any big philosophical differences, the major players will be forced to resort to partisan pickering to stay in the paper.
According to the Kansan, the YOU coalition kicked off its campaign at The Hawk with "cries about student input and representation." Delta Force opened at the Granada, promising that students would come first — different bar, same vague message. Maxwell even ran on the Delta Force slate last year, but told the Kansan he decided to leave because the coalition wasn't moving ahead (whatever that means).
Does he disagree with Delta Force's positions? If so, what made him change his mind in six months? If not, is he trying to be more Delta Force than Delta Force?
Both coalitions want more student input in contracts that the University makes with corporations, both want to increase student fees to expand recreation facilities and both are in favor of a citywide busing program.
A campaign with more real argument would be better than what occurs now. This is why the majority of students will not care and will not vote.
Hoffman and his coalition have their own set of contradictions. The Delta Force Web site is littered with references to "radical" or "widespread and fundamental" change and professes a desire to "sweep out" the current Student Senate even though the coalition won a majority of Senate seats last year.
Marino is a Prairie Village sophomore in political science.
Collegiate experiences foster student evolution
I'm starting to see everything change, and I have to admit it scares me a little.
I'm beginning to hear a lot of my
friends talking about lining up interviews and scrambling to get a few final touches added to the old resume before they begin sending them to their respective employers of choice.

tne endless possibilities, but it's only at ephemeral feeling. The moment passes, and in the end I'm saddened because it seems as if the world as we know it is coming to a screaming halt.
The first couple years after graduation can be the hardest because of trying to establish competency, becoming adapted to a completely new environment, and making your claim for total independence all at the same time. There is a roller coaster of mixed emotions involved, and it is going to be truly bittersweet process to leave the University and everything it's had to offer. At a certain age, you get a feeling inside you that says you're an adult now, and the time has come to pick up and move on.
The four (or five) years invested here have been more important than we ever possibly could have imagined as freshman.
The years spent here are the most formative years of your life, because they are the years you develop from a naive adolescent into a form of the adult you're going to be.
The classes and activities have been more than worthwhile. Looking back, it seems to me that most of the education hasn't come from the classroom.
The classes, activities, relationships, parties and various situations — both good and bad — are all part of the learning process of becoming the person you desire to become.
Call it evolution, I suppose. I have learned so much and seen so much in such a short time. And I will be sad to see it all end because this is the ideal place for a person to develop and improve. And yet, I will be excited to see the new roads that everyone will take. I have seen the changes take place in most everyone since my freshman year, and the changes are for the better. I've learned that it's taking me a long time to become the person that I want to be.
The beauty of it all is that a person can struggle at something, but then have a chance to recognize what went wrong, reinvent themselves, come back, and try again. It's all part of the process that molds you into an adult that is ready to take on real responsibility for the first time.
remaining hours
Best wishes to all graduating this year and good luck with each new endeavor and path.
It's a necessity to take the time to live your life to the fullest and cherish the remaining months we have on campus.
It's been a great experience and a ride that was truly worth the trip.
Leonard Magruder says that diversity requirements would force students to take unnecessary classes that force liberal ideas on students (University Daily Kansan, 3-31-99). These are very serious charges.
Liberalism claims avoid the issue
Shearer is a Leawood senior in journalism.
Feedback
V
first, it would clearly be unconscionable for any public-funded liberal arts school to teach liberal ideas; therefore, only nonliberal ideas should ever be taught. Moreover, 'liberal' means 'having to do with freedom,' and hence there should be no talk of freedom whatsoever
on a public University cam pus.
Third, I am horrified to learn that it is possible to force ideas on students. I had always assumed students had minds of their own.
Second, forcing students to take classes must surely violate their rights. Certainly, only those classes which are absolutely necessary to life itself should ever be required; which is to say, no classes at all.
I must say, however, that this new information explains a lot of formerly odd phenomena. Many students who act like zombies in class, probably are, in fact, zombies. It is widespread
zombihood that underlies the true danger identified by our worthy Mr. Magruder.
Indeed, what could be more dangerous than today a university, tomorrow a society of zombies whose heads are filled with senseless thoughts of toleration and understanding? It makes the mind rock and reel. I write with fear and loathing at the mere thought of being surrounded by strange people who like strange people. Is there no end to modern horrors?

Senate committee rejects bill on filling vacant seats
Questions raised regarding current,proposed process
By Nadia Mustafa
nmustafa@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
An attempt to strengthen democratic institutions within Student Senate failed last night in the University Affairs committee.
Senators voted against a bill that would have changed the process by which open Senate seats are filled throughout the year.
Current Senate rules state that when four senators resign or are permanently suspended from Senate, any student can apply to fill an open seat. Julie Numrich, Senate executive chair, chooses five random senators representing different constituencies to interview applicants. Then Senate votes to approve the replacement senators.
The bill required that as soon as one seat was vacated, the candidate
Numrich: Unsure about either processes' effectiveness

who was the runner-up in the previous elections would take bis or her place within two days of the vacancy.
Numrich said that she was not sure whether the current process was effective or if the proposal would be, either.
"I don't know if it would have solved that many problems," she said. "We don't know if the person will be as interested in Senate as they were the year before."
Tom Moore, Student Legislative Awareness Board campus director, supported the bill. He said that candidates often were defeated by a very narrow margin, such as 15 or 20 votes.
"We don't want to waste those votes," he said. "It's more democratic to do it that way."
Aaron Profitt, committee vice chairman, said that students sometimes voted for a candidate for the sake of voting against the other, not because they supported him or her. Thus, he said, the proposal would appoint senators that the student body did not really want as their representatives.
"I'm a little weary of appointing whoever came in at

In order for this legislation to take effect, full Senate must pass the bills next Wednesday.
In addition, Profitt said the bill would prevent freshmen from being involved in Senate as replacement senators.

Ricky B. Wilde, Burlington. Colo. junior, spends most of his time indoors these days.
Sgt. Jake Job, Lawrence underground police, said that as the temperatures start to rise, more and more students are bringing their feline friends to campus. Although cats are seemingly harmless animals, their presence lately has been a menace.
Wrapped in an overcoat and holding a cigarette in his trembling hand, Wilde smiles when remembering his days at the University of Kansas.
memoir.
"They (students) are always walking their cats, tying them up to trees, letting them run around," Job said. "This campus turns into a giant litter box in the spring."
house. Wilde is not describing a phobia toward cotton balls. On the contrary, Wilde's traumatic experience is a result of students bringing their cats on the KUcampus.
"I had so many friends, I even liked my teachers," he said, taking a quick drag off his cigarette. "But ever since that evil gray and white ball fur crossed my path, I'm afraid to leave the house."
Cat feces and fur balls on the sidewalk are just a few of the problems that can occur when cats are on campus. In Wilde's case, a cat formerly known as Hope, bit him while playing Frisbee with her owner.
"The cat dropped the Frisbee. I was just trying to help it out,"
he said. "Then all hell broke loose."
Tamara Boyle, Kansas City.
Mo. freshman, said she was sick of having to dodge cat poo.
"I feel like I'm playing Pac-Man out there," she said.
"Except I don't want to eat the stuff, I want to avoid it."
According to the University's Institute of Research on the Quantity of Waste Left on the Campus Each Day, or IRQWLCD. students should not walk down Jayhawk Boulevard if they want to avoid cat feces.
Dave Witherpoon, New York sophomore, said he liked to bring his cat, Kitty, on campus while he was in class. Witherspoon usually ties Kitty to a tree near Fraser Hall. Kitty was attacked on Monday by an unidentified cat in front of Fraser.
"I came out of class and saw this gray and white cat pounce on Kitty." Witherspoon said. "Of course, the cat was not on a leash."
"There are many alternate paths around campus, such as using the stairs behind the buildings, which are not near the grassy areas on which cats like to congregate," said Lindley James, researcher for IRQWLCED.
Even cat owners themselves find the rise in the on-campus cat population a problem.
He said he rescued Kitty by pushing the attacking cat away and yelling threatening phrases such as "You want a piece of this?" and "Bring it
on."
Kay Fay, administrator for miscellaneous affairs, said that yelling threatening phrases were not necessary in controlling a cat. She said that simply removing your cat from the situation would be the most mature thing to do in a cat attack. When told about
Witherspoon's method of defense, she responded with "What a jerk."
Instructors and professors are also finding cats on campus a problem. The constant meowing and caterwauling is distracting to class instruction, said Finny Cain, professor of semantics and regional cuss
words.
"To put it lightly, the cats need to stay at home," Cain said.
Fay said that cats were not a menace on campus and that any incidents involved with cats were few and far between.
"People just need to realize that cats are people, too," she said.
Study reveals Lawrence as barren, frozen wasteland during break

A new study at the University of Kansas has shed light on a perennial mystery of spring: What happens to Lawrence when students are gone for spring break?
The answer, said Bob Dooheslaf, associate professor of molecular biology and sociology, is a cold, hard truth.
"Quite simply, all motion, even at the molecular level, ceases," he said. "Lawrence, in effect, turns into a snowy wasteland, with only a few pretty leafs and lakes to break the monotony. I like leaves."
The study, called "Holy Toledo, It's Boring In Lawrence With No Students," was released Sunday.
The change, which begins the Thursday evening before spring break weekend and ends generally the final two days of break, is sparked by students leaving the Lawrence area. The energy that the college students bring to Lawrence cannot be underestimated, Dooheslaf said.
"Without the constant vibration, oscillation and plasmoid reteniology that students provide, Lawrence begins to grind to a halt," he said.
said.
Plasmoid reteniology is the highly combustible compound created when college students move energetically at bars, clubs and house parties. It is the major source of dynamism in Lawrence, he said. Dynamism is a synonym for "energy."
"We found that students, by doing their groovy student thing, are what keeps this town going." Snackovichy said. "When students start actually trying to be energetic, bad things happen — bad things."
Many students do not seem to realize that they play such a key role in the area's warmth and vigor, said Jilla Smackovich, professor of hairdressing and one of the study's co-authors.
Smackovichy said flamboyant forms of insanity could crop up when students tried to consciously alter the energy flow.
"Most of them, we found, set themselves on fire and began running around saying, 'Hello,'
I'm Sputnik," she said.
"My goodness, you can't even buy a decent drink," she said. "I mean, I suppose it would be OK if it were just cold, but when you have to spend all day huddled up in front of the fireplace or television, that's just boring."
I snip, spot, see. Said.
The landscape of Lawrence changes drastically without a student presence, said Floooky McDougal, dean of the School of Autonomy.
Dooheslaf enumerated some of the changes that Lawrence undergoes when students are away: There is no fun; there is no loud noise; there is no heat; there are no buildings, and
there is no skipping class.
"Is this some kind of sick joke?" asked Jack Revetahw, No Name, Colo., junior. "Look, everyone knows that Lawrence is overrun by the annual cicada migration during break. That's why they plan it when they do."
"Of course there's no skipping class," he said, "There are no classes to skip."
Some students were incredulous about Lawrence's transformation.
Pinut Greene, assistant vice overseer of University affairs regarding students, said that cicadas had no part in planning spring break.
"Well, mostly they just annoy us with their
Overall, the discovery of Lawrence's icy transformation probably will not change much, Dooheslaf said. Students still will go away, residents still will endure the arctic temperatures and Lawrence still will become the barren wasteland that is life without students.
little chirping sounds," he said. "We know what happens to Lawrence and campus when the students take off to their little getaways. Heating bills are astronomical. Book checkouts double at the library. The ice floes are a constant driving hazard if you can get your car to work."
Yak infiltration! Goal: Co-ed impregnation
By Steph Brewer Associate features editor
When Fluffykos Yakley first walked into Carolyn Mollett's Biology class, Mollet was struck by his rugged good looks
"He was so masculine, so virile," Molett, Hutchinson junior said. "And those big brown eyes, he was irresistible."
Mollett noticed that Yakley had an abundance of coarse brown hair but said she didn't think anything of it.
"I just thought he needed a haircut," she said, "No idea he was a yak."
stikk too hard for John Homme, professor of English, who had Yakley in his class, said he was suspicious of the yak's language skills.
The yak had convinced everyone from Office of Study Abroad coordinators to admissions officers that he was a Himalayan exchange student.
"We noticed that he smelled odd, a bit gamey, if you will, but we weren't going to say anything," a source from the Office of Admissions said on condition of anonymity. "What were we going to say, 'You stink too bad to be a human?'
"Now I'm no expert on the Himalayan region of the world, but this boy, excuse me, yak, didn't say anything but 'meuh.'" Homme said.
"He had a mountain man kind of appeal," said Jane Fille, graduate teaching assistant in Biology. "The girls in the class were devastated when Fluffykos was expelled from the University."
Despite Yakley's odor and lack of speech skills, Homme and Yakley's other professors said the yak was enormously popular with female students.
Opportunity University administrators contacted government authorities when Mollett discovered Yakley was not of human origin.
Yakley is still at the zoo, waiting for the government to decide his fate.
"It was horrible," Mollett said, sobbing softly. "We went to my apartment after a date, he took off his shoes, and I saw hooves."
give me an answer why he deceived the University and fellow students, Yakley said, "meuh."
Mollett said she immediately called the police who restrained the yak and transported him to the local zoo.
"Meuh' is really all yaks can say," explained head zookeeper Helga Imaginare.
University officials said they didn't understand why a Himalayan yak would want to attend the University of Kansas. But Herb Fou, assistant professor of hairy mammal zoology, claimed that he knew why.
"It's a conspiracy," he said. "The yaks are attempting to infiltrate the United States. Government officials are fools not to recognize the danger."
foreground.
You said Yakley disguised himself as a student in order to seduce one or several female students and impregnate them. ...
"This yak, and there are others like him, wants to create a sort of yak-human hybrid, a yako sapien," Fou said. "Can you imagine what that would look like? The horror! The horror!"
Mollett said Yakley might have been successful with other KU women had he stayed but that she never would've been tricked into having intercourse with the animal.
into his bag there the second I saw the hooves," Mollett said. "No way I would've gotten in bed with him."
given her authority University officials insist that Yakley posed no threat to students and probably just wanted to get an education.
Features page is a fool's paradise
Today's edition of the University Daily Kansan's features page contains completely made-up stories.
"Remember in grade school when you used to play jokes on your friends on April Lst?'' Miller asked. "Well, now the joke is on you."
Kansan features editor, T.R. Miller, said that she wanted to use the page to remind students that today was April Fool's Day.
Miller said she developed the page because she wanted an opportunity to spell cat with a "k."
"When you spell cat with a "k," it's just seems more krazy, she said;
seems more likely.
Associate features editor Steph Brewer was out of the newsroom at the time this brief was written.
Steph would have said that this page is the best features page ever because of the vaks, had I interviewed her," Miller said.
Kansan managing editor, Gerry Doyle also volunteered to write for the page

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday:
Your theme this year is partnerships, and you have much luck with them. You're very lucky in just about everything, actually, especially in April. In May, you'll have more restrictions, but there's still plenty of love. In August, you could discover something very interesting that you've kept hidden, even from yourself. In November, you'll want to take a gamble. Only take the risk if you're sure you'll win. In December, go back to a familiar place if you want to have fun and games.
Aries (March 21-April 19): Today is a 7

Your partner is sometimes annoying, but always supportive. He or she is the one who will help you solve a nagging problem. Ask for your partner's coaching to put that little demon to rest.
Taurus (April 20-May 20): Today is a 5
Your workload isn't heavy, but it is bothersome - a lot of papers to be sorted and filed - and you probably don't want to do it. But take heart. Confusion that has reigned for days, or even weeks, is starting to ease up. By tomorrow you should see your way clear, especially if you get some of those papers out of the way now.
Gemini (May 21-June 21); Today is a 7
Love is in the air, and it could motivate you to try even harder. Success also looks assured, although you may have to take a couple of steps backwards before you go forward. There appear to be lots of contradictions today, but that's not really true. Actually, it's all part of getting where you're going.
Cancer (June 22-July 22); Today is a 5
Travel is a possibility today, but not a very good one.
If you do travel, give yourself extra time because there will most likely be delays. Stay home and make changes to your place instead.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Today is a 5

Saturday, September 28 2015 Today is your day. You're looking very good today, even better than usual. You're attracting lots of attention, but don't let it turn your head. There's still work that needs to be done and it needs to be done carefully. One little mistake and you'll have to do the whole job over, so take care

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Today is a 5
If you are decisive, you could propel yourself up the ladder to success. Looks like the people above you don't have a clue, and you do. So don't just sit there and be critical. Show them what they're supposed to be doing, and get on with it.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Today is an 8
Something you get today or received recently could make another possession superfluous. In other words now you've got two of them and you only need one. What will you do with it? Leave it lying around or give it to a friend? The latter is definitely your better option, for reasons that will become apparent later.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Today is an 8 Does more education increase your chance for success? You're obviously intelligent, but do you have the polish, sophistication and advanced degrees you really need? If not, this is an excellent day to put money down on a class that would improve your skills!
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Today is a 5 You may still be feeling a bit cantankerous. You want more than you can afford, and that's always uncomfortable. The problem today is a lack of focus. You don't have your priorities firmly set yet. Work on prioritizing and tomorrow will be much easier.

Georgia hires Harrick as basketball coach
ATHENS, Ga. — Jim Harrick was hired yesterday as basketball coach at Georgia after guiding UCLA to a national championship in 1995 and spending the past two seasons at Rhode Island.
Harrick succeeds Ron Jirsa, who was fired March 11 after failing to lead Georgia to the NCAA tournament during his two years.
"From the beginning, we said our commitment would be to hire a proven head coach," Georgia athletic director Vince Dooley said. "Obviously, we've far surpassed that expectation.

"It's not often that a school has the opportunity to hire a coach who has won a national championship. His record speaks for itself. We're proud that he's a Bulldog."

Rhode Island athletic director Ron Petro tried to work out a deal to keep Harrick, but the coach said it was a

All-American player plans to leave for NBA
"I believe it is time to take the next step and take on a new challenge," he said at a news conference yesterday. "I will start a new and exciting chapter in my life."
COLLEGE PARK, Md. — Steve Francis, a second-team All-American, is leaving Maryland for the NBA.
Francis, who played just one year for the Terrapins, averaged 17 points a game for a team once ranked as high as No. 2 in the country.
The Terrapins (28-6) finished second to Duke in the Atlantic Coast Conference and reached the round of 16 in the NCAA tournament, where they lost to St. John's.
"I am really proud of Steve. I don't have any doubt he's ready to play in the NBA," Maryland coach Gary Williams said. "It is obvious Steve will be a very high lottery pick."
Francis, a 6-foot-3 guard, is expected to be one of the draft's top picks. He joins forward Albert White of Missouri in leaving college early.
Others who might enter the NBA draft are: Duke's William Avery and Elton Brand, the latter the national player of the year; Khalid El-Almian and Richard Hamilton of national champion Connecticut; Lamar Odom of Rhode Island; Ron Artest of St. John;s; Baron Davis of UCLA; Jumaine Jones of Georgia; Chris Porter of Auburn; and Mateen Cleaves of Michigan State.

The scenario of him playing next season, according to Fox, also would include Phil Jackson being brought in to coach the team for one year and Dean Smith, Jordan's college coach at North Carolina, being brought aboard as team president.

The Jayhawks performed well at that meet, as both squads combined to win six individual titles. No team scores were kept.

season because it is only an indoor event.
TRACK AND FIELD
Sophomore Charlie Gruber won
5,000 meters, sophomore All-American Andrea Branson won the pole vault and freshman Caroline Larose won the shot put.
Branson leads a slew of pole vaulters who have been mainstays for the team throughout the season.
Last weekend, Branson and seniors Candy Mason and Colby Miller traveled to Springfield, Mo., to compete in the Southwest Missouri State Big Bear Invitational.
Branson and Mason both vaulted
12 feet, but Branson won on fewer misses. Miller won the men's pole vault with a vault of 16 feet.
The meet, which was held during spring break, only included eight teams, most without their full team. The pole vaulters were the only athletes from Kansas.
that was something that was very informal and it worked out pretty good," said jumps coach Rick Attig.
Along with Miller, Mason and Branson, freshman Shannon Agee, senior Marc Romito and sophomore Greg Steele gave Kansas more depth than in any other event.
Mason and Branson are All Americans and Miller was one of three Jayhawk athletes to compete at the NCAA Indoor Championships in March.
"Colby's jumping fantastic. He looks like he's ready to jump 18 feet in a meet." Attig said.

While the Jayhawks app on the mound, the offense appeared to be right on its game. However, this time the offense came from a different spot in the lineup than the team was used to.

“五, six, seven, eight really carried us today and that’s good to see.” Randall said. “There were some good things that happened and we got some guys on track, but it’s pretty simple, we didn’t pitch today.”

The five through eight hitters that Randall referred to provided 11 of the teams 13 hits and were responsible for seven RBI.
Freshman Ryan Klocksien delivered four hits, three RBI and snapped out of a slump he had been battling lately.
Even though Missouri's six-run sixth appeared to be the knock-out punch, the 'Hawks refused to quit as they rallied in both the seventh and the ninth, tacking on five runs.

"Personally I feel that every time I get out I'm let ting my team down, so I just wanted to hit the ball hard, and I got some hits today." Klockes said.

Wedd was right behind Klocksien as he recorded three hits, including two doubles and two RBI.
Senior Chad King and freshman Matt Van Alsburg made up the other two parts of the Jayhawks' production as they each knocked two hits and one RBI.
However, Missouri's ace starter Jody Harris and No. 1 reliever Ryan Jamison stepped up and ended any Jayhawk threats.

'Hawks begin drills with ups, downs
By Michael T. Rigg
sports@kansan.com
Kansas sportswriter
Yesterday was a day of both good news and bad news for the Kansas football team, as the Jayhawks opened spring practice for the 1999 season.
On the positive side, quarterback Zac Wegner was cleared by his doctors just hours before the start of practice to play his senior season of football. Tests Wegner underwent on Monday to determine the effects of having three concussions showed he had improved significantly since taking the same tests in January, Wegner said.
After hearing the results, Wegner took the field with his teammates and went through throwing drills.
"It's definitely exciting to be back." he said.
The decision to come back was not easy for Wegner, knowing the risk he faces. He is still considering using a foam "bubble" attachment for his helmet that would help prevent future injuries, he said.
If he falls victim to one more concussion, Wegner's career is finished.
"If I get knocked out one more time, I'm not even going to try and come back," he said.
Wegner consulted with his family, but in the end, the decision to come back was completely his.
“[The concussion] has
been a hot topic of conversation in my household for the past couple of months," Wegner said. "On one side, my family doesn't want me to get hurt again, but on the other, they want to keep on watching me play football. But they left the final call up to me."
Allen knows first hand what Wegner is going through, having suffered multiple concussions in his lifetime.
"Surely there is still quite a risk out there for him," Coach Terry Allen said. "It was made pretty clear by the doctors today that with head injuries, they're not simply something like when you're cured, you're cured."
While Allen worried about Wegner's safety yesterday, Wegner focused on preparing for the upcoming season. He hasn't played in a game since October and admittedly needs some work.
"Every time you come back, there's going to be some rust." Wegner said.
The bad news for the Jayhawks yesterday was the absence of junior-college transfer Ryan Brock.
Allen and the rest of his staff are still waiting for Brock, a defensive end, to report to practice. As of yesterday, he had not returned to campus from spring break. He has reportedly struggled with homesickness.
Brock transferred to Kansas this semester from San Bernardino Community
"If I get knocked out one more time, I'm not even going to try and come back."
Zac Wegner Kansas quarterback
College in order to participate in spring drills. He went home to Riverside, Calif., the week before spring break, and now his return to the team is in question.
"He was going to come back, but now he doesn't know," said Allen. "He's homesick."
Brock called the football office on Tuesday morning and said he was leaving Riverside, but he was not at the airport when his roommate to pick him up, Allen said.
Brock, who was expected to compete for playing time at right defensive end, was one of Kansas's most promising junior college recruits, Allen said.
Brock said through Allen that he would give no comment on the matter.
"I'm obviously very disappointed abut Ryan, but the good news of today definitely outweighs the bad," Allen said.
The Jayhawks hit the field again today for day two of practice.

Replacement for Doherty announced
Kansas men's basketball head coach Roy Williams named Joe Holladay as the replacement for assistant coach Matt Doherty yesterday. Doherty left to become Notre Dame's head coach.
Holladay, who has worked as a restricted assistant basketball coach at Kansas the past six seasons, was named the full-time assistant coach. In the new position, Holladay will take over Doherty's off-campus recruiting duties and assist in the day-to-day operations of the men's basketball program. Holladay has been directly involved with the academic progress of Jayhawk players and the preseason conditioning and strength program.
Holladay's former role will be filled by Ben Miller. Miller, who obtained his Ph.D. in sports psychology from Kansas in 1995, has worked as video coordinator and equipment manager in the Jayhawk basketball office the last four years.
Williams said the two coaches had performed well in their previous responsibilities and that he was confident they would do a good job in their new positions.
"We are extremely pleased that we have the caliber people that we can move into these two positions immediately." Williams said. "The continuity that we have should make it easy for our program to maintain the standards we are accustomed to."

Missouri beats Jayhawks 12-8
By Matt Tait
sports@kansan.com
Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas baseball team was defeated yesterday by the Missouri Tigers 12-8. Although the 'Hawks' 19th loss was a disappointment, it was not a total loss.
"I'm pleased with what we're doing," coach Bobby Randall said. "We're working at it. This is just one game we lost and aside from our pitching the rest wasn't too bad."
Unfortunately for the Jayhawks, the pitching was bad.
The 'Hawks sent six pitchers to the mound, and except for a few good batters or a good
inning here and there, none of them were effective.
The Tigers exploded for 12 runs on 14 hits, including a six-run sixth inning that proved to be the difference in the game.
With a run in both the first and second as well as a two-run homer in the third, the Tigers quickly jumped out to a 4-1 lead.
The Jayhawks battled back, however, and by the end of the fifth had cut the lead to one run at 4-3.

Reports say that Stewart could leave Tigers
several TV stations reported yesterday that Stewart and his lawyer spent the day negotiating a buyout of the final two years of his contract with Missouri athletic director Mike Alden.

Connecticut win inspires underdog in all of us
Minutes before the tip-off of Monday's National Championship game between Duke and Connecticut, my roommate Dom and I discussed a recurring theme that has plagued our sports watching careers.
Our teams never win. Never
Maybe it's because we have a tendency to root for the underdog. Maybe it's because we're cursed. Maybe, just maybe, it's because we root for Oklahoma.
Doesn't matter the sport or the level of competition, when it comes to the big game, the team we have pledged our undying support for always comes up short. And, in the process, our collective hearts break.
So, with that in mind, I had come to the inevitable conclusion that Duke

would win. How could they not? Not only was I rooting for UConn, but I hate Duke with a vengeance. And when you combine those two facts, it could only mean one thing: Duke was destined to be this year's National Champion.
That is why I will love the University
Speaking of the Huskies:
OK, it's time for the NBA to end their cute little experiment in Canada. It was fun while it lasted, but until the David Stern closes shop in Toronto and Vancouver, players such as Vince Carter, Mike Bibby and Shareef Abdul-Rahim will linger in obscurity. Not to mention dreadfully ugly uniforms.
of Connecticut for as long as I am alive. Not because I'm a big Huskies fan, but because they proved that maybe there's a little justice in the world...maybe.
But when it finally did, it was great to see the mighty Duke Blue Devils vanquished.
Monday night's championship was one of the best played championship basketball games I have ever seen. The level of competition was unreal. Like fellow Kansan columnist Mike Harrity said, it was a game you never wanted to see end.
How about those Chicago Bulls! (If you think hard enough, you can always find plenty of good material)
The only thing the Royals have going for them is the fact that they play in the same division as the Minnesota Twins and the Chicago White Sox
I think I'm already starting to go through college basketball withdrawn.
Good Question.
While playing basketball at Robinson yesterday, I was asked what I would be writing about now that basketball season was finished.
With the Kansas City Royals' torrid start in the preseason, you start to get the feeling that maybe things will be a bit sunnier this summer at Kauffman Stadium than they have in previous years — but I doubt it.
■ Anyone who caught the McDonald's All-American game had to come away impressed by the play of future Jayhawk Nick Collison.
Although he started slow and looked a bit on the scrawny side, Collison was impressive. Now, granted, everyone looks like a baller in high school all-star games, but Collison appeared athletic, polished, a star in the making. He should make Jayhawk fans very happy for the next four years.

Vladislava Gordic has canceled her classes.
An assistant professor of American and English literature at the University of Novi Sad in Serbia, Gordic has retreated to a shelter. Her campus, she reported, came under fire from NATO air attacks yesterday morning and was damaged heavily.
"There are no conditions for intellectual work," she said in an e-mail message. "My belief in the premises of Western civilization has been seriously shaken, although, while sitting in shelter, I try to focus on books and music which are the inherent part of the Western cultural heritage."
Professor Gordic has depended on the Internet, including message boards, to keep in contact with her
colleagues and friends overseas.
rier e-mail comments contained a sense of both confusion and anger, along with bafflement about the charges of ethnic cleansing that prompted the NATO air strikes.
"People think that Albanian problem is only an excuse for the disruption of Yugoslavia's integrity and sovereignty," she said.
Gordic said that she did not think coverage of the crisis by the Western media was accurate.
She also sent excerpts of her diary via e-mail, in which she wrote that the world seemed to be concerned about "a handful of Albanian refugees," noting that she had seen no television coverage to suggest that a mass exodus of ethnic Albanians from Kosovo or a humanitarian catastrophe was taking place.
The UN high commissioner for refugees said yesterday that more than 150,000 people had fled Kosovo since NATO air strikes began March 24.
Ted Wilson, KU professor of history, said there were historical examples of government censorship in wartime.
During World War I, proGerman reporting probably did not cross the ocean from Britain to the United States, Wilson said, because before the United States entered the war, Britain controlled the trans-Atlantic cable.
In an e-mail, Gordic requested that she not be

WASHINGTON — President Clinton pledged yesterday that the United States would do everything in its power to gain the return of three Army soldiers captured near the Yugoslav-Macedonia border, and he warned Yugoslav President Slobodan Milosevic that "the United States takes care of its own."
"President Milosevic should make no mistake: We will hold him and his government responsible for their safety and their well-being-"
Clinton said to emotional applause from service members gathered in a hangar at Norfolk Naval Base in Virginia.
Shortly before Clinton spoke, Yugoslav state-controlled television announced that the three soldiers would face criminal proceedings before a military court on Friday.
"There was absolutely no basis for them to be taken," Clinton said. "There is no basis for them to be held. There is certainly no basis for

KU student pleads guilty to peeping on neighbor
Shawn Mikulich, a 25-year-old KU student, pleaded guilty yesterday to drilling three holes into a wall that separated his residence with his female neighbor's, allowing him to see into her bathroom.
Eavesdropping and criminal damage to property were the charges filed against him. The criminal damage charge was dismissed because Mikulich's security deposit on the residence was used to repair the wall.
Mikulich will be sentenced at 11:30 p.m. April 30 at the Division V district courtroom in the Law Enforcement Center, 111 E. 11th St.
Mikulich told the court that, other than being her neighbor, he did not know the woman living next to him.
Marion Williams, a lawyer in the Office of the Douglas County District Attorney, said the state would recommend that Mikulich be sentenced to 50 hours of community service and possibly a fine
or $200 or less. Williams said the final decision on Mikulich's sentence would be up to Division V judge Paula Martin.
The holes were drilled sometime between Oct. 10 and Nov. 10, 1998.

The grant will help Ator and his research partner, Mark Charteroff, associate professor of hearing and speech at the Med Center, develop a sensitive, non-invasive test to see the early signs of Meniere's disease and prevent its effects.

The bank did not discover the theft until March 18.
Muslim holiday play shows Pakistani culture
A play interwoven with a fashion show and a dance performance will showcase Pakistani culture at 7:30 p.m. Saturday at the Ecumenical Christian Ministries Building, 1204 Oread Ave.
The play intertwines American and Pakistani cultures, said Samia Qadri, Overland Park senior.
This is the first semester that the Pakistani Club has been on campus, Oadri said.
The event is in part a celebration of the Muslim holiday Eid, which was Saturday, she said.
The event costs $5.

KU recipient of grant for kids with disabilities
U. S. Senator Pat Roberts, R-Kan., announced Wednesday that the University of Kansas, Children's Mercy Hospital of Kansas City and Rockhurst College in Kansas City would receive a combined total of $600,000 in grant money to help children with disabilities.
Betsy Holahan, press secretary for Robert's office, said the grant was issued by the Department of Education to fund research in helping children and infants with cognitive and responsive disabilities.
The grant will be paid out over the next four years, she said.
The research will be a collaboration among the three institutions, and will continue for the length of the grant.

Roberts to stress need for more research funds
U. S. senator Pat Roberts, R-Kan., will speak in Topeka today about the need for increased funding for science and technology research in Kansas.
Roberts will speak in a meeting of his Advisory Committee on Science, Technology and the Future at noon at the Capitol Plaza Hotel.
Much of his speech to the Committee will focus on research funding for universities in Kansas. Faculty salaries at Kansas universities are below those at similar schools across the country. Kansas also spends less on research facilities than similar universities, according to the Robert's studies.
Roberts formed the committee two years ago to advise him on technology needs in Kansas.
Serbian professor awaits end

asked political questions, saying that she could not answer them.
Wilson said that it was possible that the Yugoslavian government could be monitoring electronic transmissions and that anyone in Gordic's situation would be worried about sending sensitive information.
Examples of censorship in times of war have not been limited to foreign countries. During World War II, Wilson said, if members of the media wanted to travel with the Armed Forces, they needed permission from the government and had to have their notes cleared by a government official.
Gordic said she thought that NATO's motives for bombing Kosovo were different than what was reported.
one said she believed NATO was not attacking Yugoslavia for humanitarian reasons, but because NATO thought Kosovo should be a sovereign nation.
Gordic said that the view that NATO attacks were intended to break apart the Yugoslav state was common among the Serbs she had spoken with.
"People are mostly angry and bitter," she said. "All political differences are erased in the utter disgust over the aggression. People firmly believe that the principal aim of NATO is the independence of Kosovo, which everybody strongly opposes. Nobody can agree with the tearing apart of his or her country."
Ryan Beasley, lecturer of political science and government at the University of Kansas, said there were a
variety of motives for NATO's action in Kosovo, one of which was humanitarian.
Beasley said that NATO was preserving a number of interests by taking action against Yugoslavia, including interests in Macedonia, Greece and Turkey.
He said that the differences between Western and non-Western media, Yugoslav President Slobodan Milosevic's spin on information in Serbia, and Gordic's increased access to information as a university professor could explain her view of NATO's motive in Yugoslavia.
Gordic also said she was baffled about the targets selected by NATO.
"The fact that many civilian targets have been claimed military ones appalls me mostly," she said. "It seems that a chocolate factory can be taken down as a military target only because soldiers eat chocolate!"
Other buildings hit, Gordic said, included a vacuum cleaner factory, which had been struck repeatedly by NATO missile attacks.
"Babies remind me of a Yugoslav drum player, who told yesterday, at the Belgrade concert, how he deals with his 21/2-year-old son," she said. "Whenever emergency sirens announce all-alert, the drummer and his wife start shouting joyfully, because they want to persuade the boy how descending into shelter is a nice game eagerly awaited for. Still, the drummer admitted that the boy becomes suspicious no matter how naturally his parents act."
Gordic said that despite the bombings, the people of Novi Sad were determined to resist.
"The first waves of shock,
fear and frustration seem to be over," she said. "These feelings are replaced by spite — now people want to be proud and dignified. I myself do not fear that much, at least in daytime."
Gordic said that she had not seen a surge of support for Milosevic but that public sentiment had turned fiercely against NATO.
"Public opinion mostly blames NATO and Americans," she said. "All the graffiti and slogans on the protest concerts around Yugoslavia condemn (or wittingly joke about) NATO and the American president. None mentions KLA [Kosovo Liberation Army], and I have seen no sign of hatred against Albanian people."
Because she is an English professor, Gordic said she was worried about the effect an anti-American atmosphere would have on her students.
"I teach English and American literature, and I fear that the next generations of students may start loathing it because of the deep scars," she said. "I will have to invest much energy in explaining that Shakespeare and Hemingway are not Clinton-esque, not a bit," she said.
Gordic said that she too had trouble coming to terms with nations whose literature she loved bombing her university.
"I've never been in Kansas, but it is a special place for me, since in Lawrence, Kansas, lived my favorite American writer, William Burroughs, whose work I have reviewed for Yugoslav literary periodicals," Gordic said. "He raised his voice against oppression, violence and manipulation."

Elections dispute continues

Members of the YOU coalition who filed a complaint about Delta Force campaign abuses Wednesday may face dismissal penalties and fines if their claim proves false.
Jennifer Watkins, elections commissioner,
said that she would file a complaint against Ben Walker and R.J. Woodring, incumbent YOU candidates for Nunemaker senators, if their accusations were false.

named that Jason Fizzell, 1998 KU graduate and former Delta Force president, was helping Delta Force with its campaign. According to the elections code, a
coalition must pay a "fair market value" for non-student consulting and must report it to the elections commission.
Wednesday night, Seth Hoffman,
Delta Force president and candidate for
student body president, denied that his
coalition sought campaign advice from
Fitzell.
Watkins said that if the complaint was false, Walker and Woodring could have violated three major rules: attempting to influence the outcome of an election by means of fraud; making libelous or slanderous statements regarding another coalition or candidate; and attempting to mislead or obstruct the commission, commissioner or hearing board in the performance of their duties.
The code allows the accused party to request that no action be taken against the individuals who filed the complaint.
The commission would determine the penalty for any major offense, which could include a $50 fine, removal of campaign literature from campus, disqualification from the election and dismissal from office.
But, Hoffman said that YOU should be punished for what he called political maneuvering.
“This kind of thing needs to be penalized,” he said. “They need to be a punished for deliberately attempting to scream us.”
If the allegations were true, Watkins
said it would be the commission's duty to assess a penalty.

As time approaches for students to vote on a new campus recreation center during Student Senate elections April 14-15, the issue increasingly is becoming entangled in campaign politics.

After reviewing the recreation task force's materials during spring break, Delta Force released an alternative recreation proposal this week, mirroring a Student Rights committee resolution that failed last spring. The Delta Force proposal calls for an addition to the south or west sides of Robinson Center.
The Delta Force proposal, which is still on the drawing board, would cost about $4 million or $5 million and would require an estimated $10 to $15 per semester student fee increase.
Erin Simpson, incumbent Delta Force candidate for College of Liberal Arts and Sciences senator, researched the alternative with Seth Hoffman, Delta Force candidate for student body president. Hoffman said that they relied on the task force's research and some students' opinions to draft their proposal.
"An addition would capitalize on all

the things Robinson already has," Simson said.
Hoffman said that if Delta Force candidates were elected, the coalition would try to put its proposal to a student-body vote this fall and begin construction next spring.
Delta Force will campaign against the task force proposal, which will be on the ballot for a student body referendum during elections. The task force proposal would create a $16 million free-standing recreation center. With the task force proposal, fees would eventually increase by $49 per semester. However, there will be a KU Fit and intramural fee waiver for students who use the new recreation center.
Korb Maxwell, YOU candidate for student body president, said that YOU would not take a stance on the recreation center. But, he said, the task force had a solid proposal.
Tom Waechter, planning and programming manager for Design and Construction Management, said that
an addition to Robinson Center would be less expensive but that it would not necessarily be a good long-term investment.

Simmpson referred to a letter written October 23, 1998 to David Ambler, Dean of Student Affairs, in which Jim Long, then Kansas Union director, said that Ambler had requested he assemble a group to plan for a new or expanded campus recreation center last summer.
Yoder said that the Department of Student Affairs always had supported improving recreation but that the task force proposal was entirely students' efforts.

"I feel that the student body as a whole is in favor of this," he said. "It's very easy for groups to misguide voters. That's a smear tactic on this proposal."

"Robinson needs significant renovation, and you'd still have a mixed-used facility," he said. "That's the biggest trade-off."
To support Delta Force's more modest proposal, Simpson cited statistics from the 1996 Senior Survey, which revealed that almost 55 percent of graduating seniors had been satisfied with campus recreation. In addition, she said that the task force proposal was actually an administrative initiative, not a student one.

Editorial
International stability demands open communication with China
As Congress turns its attention from impeachment to other issues, it is vital that our representatives keep in mind our international interests. Though conflict in the Middle East and former Yugoslavia have earned most of the nations' attention recently, there exists the glaring absence of a stable relationship with China.
China arguably is our greatest challenger — economically, militarily and ideologically. Our leaders must prioritize the development of a strong but fair foreign policy with this potential opponent.
To many, human-rights abuses, such as the massacre nearly a decade ago in Tiananmen Square, are sufficient reasons to endorse a foreign policy of chastisement toward China. To subdue rising tensions between the American and Chinese governments, U.S. officials should seek consistent communication with Chinese leaders.
When the line of communication between the two governments suffers, so does security. When the United States granted Taiwanese President Lee Teng-hui a visa to speak at Cornell University in 1995, China responded with military exercises in the Formosa Strait. Obviously, the Chinese government was unhappy that they were not informed before the visit; Lee leads what China considers a rebellious province. Because China has a substantial arsenal of nuclear weapons, American national security also is at stake.
China's economic power and human-rights record require the United States' attention.
American leaders also should strive to include China in the international economic community. The Chinese economy is blooming rapidly into the third largest in the world. To relieve trade disparities between China and other industrial nations — including the United States — and avoid the development of economic crisis in Asia, the United States should encourage Chinese leaders to participate in the World Trade Organization and abide by its rules.
Removing its Most Favored Nation
trade status, as many have suggested,
is inadvisable. That designation is given to almost every major industrial state.
The status at least symbolically encourages the Chinese government to enact fair market and production practices. China, though not a democracy, wields the greatest power in Asia and should be included in global economic forums.
The only hope of curbing the undeniable abuses of human rights in China exists in open communication. Ending the denial of fundamental freedoms of both Chinese and Tibetan citizens deserves the highest priority in America's policy toward China. Yet it is doubtful these abuses will end unless our governments truly trust each other.
then, perhaps a rule of law that guarantees freedom to all under Chinese rule can be developed.
The Cold War may be finished, but America still deals with a potentially explosive situation in China.
The current relationship between the two is insufficient. Improving it is imperative.

Lack of decent parking leaves residents hanging
I'm responding to an article in the March 16 issue of the University Daily Kansan about parking spaces at Gertrude Sellars Pearson-Corbin Hall and the Towers. I live at GSP-Corbin and know that the lack of parking nuts residents in potential danger.
Imagine walking alone near campus at 2 a.m. because you couldn't park in a spot you paid $75 to have. Now imagine that you are a female freshman six blocks away from your dorm. A gravel pit near our dorm was supposed to provide spaces, but has been affectionately dubbed the 'rape lot' by residents. This 'rape lot' is considered one of the safe spots to park after midnight.
The parking department has shown no forethought in providing students with a place to park. Judging from the article, it seems that no one has taken responsibility to improve the situation.
Of course, limiting permits will provide all buyers with a place to park, but what if you can't buy one? There just isn't anywhere else to park. This problem has been ignored for too long if there are 118 people who can't find spots.
The overflow of people did not just pop up overnight, and I want to know why our safety has been compromised.

Week in Florida burns flesh, friendly relations
Although I'm sure many of you did wonderfully exciting things during spring break, got addresses you'll never write to and contracted all sorts of
leases to circulate into the Lawrence biosystem, the fact remains that I am vain enough to consider my life one of, if not the most fascinating events you'll ever be privy to.
So, I'm going to talk about my spring break.

opinion @ kansan.com
Eighteen hours later, it became abundantly clear that all of those savy movies extolling the greatness of road trips were simply propaganda from fast-food restaurants and roadside gas stations.
Although these traveling companions may have been friends, the camaraderie seemed to fade somewhere south of the Tennessee border. One of my friends drove too slow, the other had no sense of direction and I guess my habit of swerving into oncoming traffic wasn't appreciated, if I interpreted the stream of profanities screamed at me correctly.
We further butchered the stigma of road tripping by caravaning down with another group of people. It seemed like a good idea until we noticed that they weren't right behind us as we pulled into the hotel parking lot.
Concern would have to wait, though, because our first impulse upon seeing the sandy beaches, rolling ocean and scantily clad women was to go into our hotel room, pull the shades and go to sleep.
At some point, I remember the phone ringing and one of my traveling partners intercept a message from our wayward companions, who said that their car had exploded somewhere near Nashville.
It sounded devastating, but they had called, and they were alive, so we went back to sleep.
After rousing ourselves for the free breakfast provided by the hotel — we all know that stale bagels and orange juice laced with heavy lumps of concentrate are the
best way to start a day — my friends and I headed to the beach.
So, we kindly moved five feet over into the sand, and got our sunburns for free.
Soon enough, a very tan old man who appeared to come from some cardboard boxes on the beach informed us that the wooden slabs we had camped out on were actually rental units, and that we would have to pay $15 for the privilege of using them.
Finally, evening came and it was time to hit the local clubs. Realizing that I was among strangers who were mostly drunk and would never see me again, I decided to leave all sense of reserve behind and do something completely cruel and unforgivable to those who witnessed it.
I danced.
Of the limited blessings God has given me, fluid movement is not one of them.
I sure tried, though.
I bobbed my head, I thrust my hips and I flailed my arms. I knocked over drinks, I stepped on feet and I bruised a lot of hips. In short, I made very few new friends in the state of Florida.
Eventually, I got close enough to some young lass who couldn't ignore my bounding energy. I smiled. She smiled politely back. The groove was on, and we started to do that "grind thing," and I became painfully aware of just how long it's been since certain muscles in my legs have seen action. I guess that walking up the hill three or four times a week isn't quite the same as five minutes of actual aerobic exercise.
But, we're grinding, right? So, I fought through the pain. A little alcohol and I was feeling pretty sexy, and she had this look in her eyes. It looked like the spring break fantasy was about to come true until she said, "Your keys are digging into my thighs; I need to go."
So I moved on to my next target: the bar.
And she limped out of my life forever.
After that, the rest of the week is kind of a blur. I didn't end up with a tattoo like one of my companions, so I guess everything worked out OK.
Of course, after another 18 hours in the car on the way back, my friends and I have decided to never speak to one another again.

Fire destroyed belongings but nurtured compassion
Early morning March 13 sunlight crept slowly through my eyelashes, and I pried open my eyelids. I blinked once, then twice. And realization finally sank in.
Let me get one thing straight: I do not blame anyone for the fire in Ellsworth Hall last month. But, irrational as it might seem, I am mad at the fire.
that I was not in a bed I call my own, nor was I in a place that I have called my second home for the last three years.

Fire can be a greedy monster, and this one was no different. It swallowed a sense of home that I had acquired during the last few years.
The hallway I would walk down every day when I got home from class was nothing physically special, but it was a place of warmth — A place where I knew, most days, that I was welcome.
As I trudged up the stairs, after a quick ride from the house that I stayed at the night before, I feared what I would find that Sunday morning. I already had caught a quick glimpse the night before of what the fire and resulting smoke had done.
The hallway I had grown to love looked like a surrealist vision of some post-modern hell. The walls had been darkened by the smoke, and an ashen smell permeated the air. The interiors of many rooms were covered in soot, as though some diabolic snowstorm had snuck through the doorways.
And everywhere I looked, concern and depression were painted on the face of the fourth floor residents as they wondered how everyone would fare after the blaze.
As I finally reached my floor, I took a careful, investigative look down the hall. Things still looked bleak, and I sadly made my way to my room. I attempted to call my parents, to let them know that, as far as material goods were concerned, I had been
And then, I heard them. The voices. Voices of hope and goodwill coming from the hallway. I walked outside my room to see what was going on and how I could help.
spared any damage. Yes, my material goods were still undamaged, but my heart was aching.
Soon, the happy contagion of goodwill had spread throughout the floor. Anyone who could help was carrying the personal belongings of those whom had seen the worst of the damage into the lobby. And other people assisted in the scrubbing and washing of these belongings.
Later, we all helped each other wipe down the walls and mop the floors as we worked to restore our home. We joked with one another as we watched the soap suds remove the dark smoke. We cried within ourselves, as we realized some possessions could not be salvaged.
But most of all, we came together as an unit to accomplish a great good. The fire, in some sense, brought the floor members together as the unofficial family we always knew we were.
As I write this column, the hallway outside my door still is in need of repairs.
And many of my friends are still recovering from the fire.
I am mad at the fire for damaging the goods of my floor members and stealing the old sense of home I had. But, as most people know, you can also be grateful toward something you are mad at.
In time, repairs will be finished, and I will begin to rebuild my sense of home. More importantly, though, the fire ignited the loving hearts of the fourth floor members. That is what the fire presented no.
That is the right that we are presented as I often joke with my friends that the Tupac Shakur song, "Changes," was playing in the background while we were cleaning up from the fire. As the song states, "Things will never be the same." For that, I am glad.

Former Costa Rican leader voices need for world peace
By Katie Burford
kburford@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Oscar Arias Sanchez, former President of Costa Rica and 1987 Nobel Peace Laureate, employed legions of humanity's greatest thinkers and leaders to communicate his singular message of laying down arms and embracing peace.
"Let us have faith that right makes might," he said quoting Abraham Lincoln in his speech last night at Budig Hall.
The hour-long speech followed by a question-and-answer period was part of a symposium to commemorate the 40-year exchange of scholars between the University of Kansas and the University of Costa Rica in San Jose.
Arias also used cold, hard numbers to convey his message that five percent of the world consumes 86 percent of the world resources.
Some of his strongest criticism was reserved for the United States and its colossal defense budget. He said that it would only require $40 billion of the United States' $800 billion defense spending to provide basic services to the world's entire population.
"Let us abolish poverty like previous generations abolished slavery," he said.
He also criticized U.S. politicians' dependence on the opinion polls, saying that the Gallup polls had become more important than the words of
American legends like Lincoln.
"Politicians are telling people what they want to hear and not what they need to know," he said.
The crowd of about 300 people gave Arias a standing ovation after the speech.

Nayibe Bermudez, Colombia graduate student, said that she came to hear Arias speak because she wanted to hear his opinion about the conflict in Kosovo.
Arias said he didn't think the actions of NATO represented the wishes of the global community.
He said that NATO should not replace the United Nations and emphasized that the majority of countries in the world were represented by the United Nations, whereas this was not the case
with NATO.
Bermudez said that she agreed with Arias.
"The U.S. is saying that public opinion agrees with the bombings," she said. "They haven't asked my country."
Since his presidency ended in 1990, Arias has spent much of his time advocating for global demilitarization.
On May 29, he met with seven other Nobel Peace laureates — including Elie Wiesel and the Dalai Lama — to unveil an International Code of Conduct on Arms Transfers. He said that he hoped the United Nations General Assembly would vote to adopt the Code.

Soldiers still prisoners in Yugoslavia

them to be tried."
Pentagon spokesman Kenneth Bacon said the investigation was continuing to determine exactly who abducted them and from where they were taken. Meanwhile, he asserted, "at a minimum, they are entitled to POW status" or immediate release.
Word of the military trial came yesterday from Yugoslavia's state news agency. The United States reacted with outrage. Any trial would be in violation of international law, State Department spokesman James P. Rubin said yesterday.
The three soldiers, shown on Serbian television, were cavalry scouts who had reported coming under fire shortly before they lost radio contact and disappeared for several hours.
The Pentagon backed away from initial assertions that the soldiers had not crossed into Yugo:la territory. Army Gen. Henry Shelton, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, said that the possibility was now being investigated, and he suggested that the three
may have inadvertently crossed the border while fleeing from a Serb ambush.
Clinton, who met with families of service members before his speech, pledged to stay in Yugoslavia for the duration of the conflict, despite the dangers.
"The mission I have asked our armed forces to carry out with our NATO allies is a dangerous one," Clinton said. "We will continue to carry out our mission with determination and resolve."
At a news conference shortly before Clinton's speech, Defense Secretary William Cohen said it was not yet clear how the soldiers fell into Serb hands. When asked if they were prisoners of war, Cohen said: "Their status is that of being illegally detained.
"We will do everything in our power to secure their safe return," Cohen said.
Asked whether the U.S. would try to rescue the soldiers, Shelton, appearing with Cohen in Norfolk, said "we have some initiatives that are ongoing," but he would not provide more details.
Pentagon officials strongly discounted the possibility of a military
rescue mission because of the risks involved.
Other U.S. and NATO officials demanded that the three soldiers receive humane treatment in captivity.
"We're very concerned about the safety and welfare of the three soldiers who were abducted by Serb forces," U.S. Army Gen. Wesley Clark, the top NATO commander, said yesterday. "We've all seen their pictures. We don't like it. We don't like the way they're treated, and we have a long memory about these kinds of things."
Clark said the men had reported by radio that they were surrounded. "The radio transmission was cut off and they disappeared for several hours," Clark said. "The next we saw, they were badly beaten up there and shown on television in Belgrade."
The Pentagon identified the three as Staff Ft. Andrew A. Ramirez, 24, of Los Angeles, Staff Sgt. Christopher J. Stone, 25, of Smiths Creek, Mich.; and Spc. Steven M. Gonzales, 21, of Huntsville, Texas. Their families have been notified.

Digital Jayhawk opens information window to KU
By Jennifer Roush
jroush@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
A Web site will be unveiled today by the William Allen White School of Journalism and Mass Communications that will serve as an all-encompassing news service for the University of Kansas, the first of its kind in the nation.
The Web site, Digital Jayhawk at www.digital.jayhawk.org, will be launched at 3 p.m. at 130 Budig Hall, said Gary Hawke, executive director of the Digital Jayhawk. The Digital Jayhawk newsroom is located at 2052 Dole Hall.
The Web site will combine audio, video and online capabilities, as well as discussion forums for users.
"It's a one-stop shop that can bring users highly selected information that they want." Hawke said.
He also said that the Web site would contain an archive of all of the news stories done by KU journalism students. Stories can be searched by name, subject and date.
Users will be able to watch KUJH Channel 14 on the Web site, as well as listen to KJJK 90.7. Streaming video of KU events, such as commencement, speeches and some sporting events also will be available.
Christopher Ryan, professional in residence and technical/ content director of the Web site, said there would be more than just news on the Web site. He said the site also would include a master calendar of University events, chatrooms and discussion forums. Campus organizations also will be able to create Web pages directly on the Digital Jayhawk or link
their existing pages to the Web site. These pages can be created by people who have no knowledge of computers, Ryan said. For more information, organization members should visit the Digital Jayhawk.
The idea for the Digital Jayhawk began four years ago when Hawke went to a broadcasting convention and viewed Internet software that he thought would be useful for a large news Web site. He also thought it would be interesting for journalism students at KU and could help better serve the alumni.
and could help better serve the people. The Web site began to take shape in 1997 when James K. Gentry became dean of the School of Journalism.
"Without his support, it wouldn't have happened." Hawke said.
Gentry said that when he came to KU in the summer of 1997, there was a newspaper, a television station and a radio station, but he said there wasn't much use of the Internet.
"We wanted to create a Web product that would allow students from all sequences and across campus to participate in the news," Gen tr y said.
The Web site also will provide marketing experience for advertising and business communications students, who will sell advertising space on the Web site.
Gentry said he was happy that the Digital Jayhawk was almost finished. He said the Digital Jayhawk would continue to be a work in progress.

"Chris was the right ingredient at the right time," he said.
Ryan said that the Web site, which he called a community Web site for the University, should be accessible for users today.
"This is the media convergence everyone's been talking about in action," Ryan said.
He emphasized that what the public will see at the presentation to the beginning
is just the beginning.
Ryan also said that he has devoted so much time to the Web site this week that he had to cancel the two sections of Journalism 657: The American Press that he teaches.
"I've had a couple of people call me and thank me for the days off," he said.

But not all of his students, who have projects due next week, were so happy about it.

Norm finally decides to sit down
By Kevin C. Wilson
Kansan sportswriter
sports@kansan.com
Norm Stewart stepped down as coach of the Missouri men's basketball team yesterday after 32 seasons.
Stewart, 64, said he considered his retirement during a game in Lawrence on Jan. 24, when a popular chant from Jayhawk fans, "Sit down, Norm!", rang in his ears.
"I said to myself that day: 'I think I will,'"
Stewart said.
PETER H. WILLIAMS
He said he was not forced out as coach and would serve the final four years of his

contract as a special assistant to the school's chancellor.
Stewart's 731 career wins at Northern Iowa and Missouri rank seventh all-time among NCAA Division I coaches. His record at Missouri is 634-333 with eight conference championships and 16 NCAA Tournament appearances.
Kansas coach Roy Williams, who has a
14-9 record against Stewart, said Stewart would be missed.
"College basketball is losing a great one," Williams said. "I just can't picture Missouri Basketball without Norm Stewart on the sideline."
Duke's assistant coach Quin Snyder is considered the top candidate to replace Stewart, but others mentioned include Washington coach Bob Bender, Los Angeles Lakers assistant Larry Drew and former Iowa coach Tom Davis.
Missouri athletic director Mike Alden, who has been at the school only eight months, said he didn't force Stewart to step down. Alden said that it was Stewart, not him, who brought up the idea of retiring for the first time during a typical end-of-season review on March 15. Alden said that the following day Stewart reiterated his desire to step down.
The announcement of Stewart's retirement came on the heels of a report of a falling-out between the coach and Alden. Apparently, the athletic director wasn't pleased with Stewart's indifferent response last week to junior Albert White's intentions of declaring himself eligible for the NBA Draft, or with his recent run-ins with Missouri players.
Nine players have transferred in the past five years and some current players

Stewart, voted by the Associated Press and *The Kansas City Star* as the all-time Big Eight Conference coach, won more Big Eight Conference games (246) and conference tournament titles (six) than any coach in league history. His eight league championships are tied with former Kansas State coach Tex Winter for second in Big Eight history behind Kansas' Phog Allen (24). He was honored as big Eight "Coach of the Year" five times and was named UPI national "Coach of the Year" in 1982. Despite his extensive regular season success, Stewart has never led the Tigers to the Final Four, and Missouri hasn't won an NCAA tournament game since 1995. Even though Stewart never reached the Final Four, Williams said that Stewart's overwhelming desire to win would not be forgotten. "I can think of many characteristics to describe Coach Stewart, but the one that stands out to me is his competitiveness," Williams said. "He was a great competitor — a great coach — and I will miss

Three backs finding niche with Jayhawks
Bowles, Childs, Winbush bring different styles to the gridiron
By Michael T. Rigg sports@kansan.com
Kansas writerspirit
Just don't call them enemies.
Call it what you want: running back by committee, tag-t team touchdown makers, the fearsome threesome, or anything else that describes the Kansas Jayhawks running back trio of Mitch Bowles, Henri Childs and David Winhush.
Even though Bowles, Winbush, and Childs compete for playing time and rushing opportunities on the field, the three have a complete understanding and respect for one another once practice ends or the game is over.
"We're completely cool with each other," said Winbush, who led the team with 974 yards rushing last season. "We all get along and have a good understanding about things."
The understanding that each back has of each other didn't come easily. They have had to come to terms with the fact that they won't be getting as many carries as they had earlier in their careers. Bowles said.
"It takes some work mentally to get used to rotating out," said Bowles. "In high school you were the man, and then when you get to college things change because everyone has more
talent or just as much talent as you.
You've got to learn to cooperate."
The Jayhawks are counting on this cooperation to bridge each back's differences. There's Bowles, a senior and the elder statesman who returns kicks and is a big fan of Detroit Lions running back Barry Sanders.
Winbush, the shortest of the three at 5-7, was the hero of last season's 33-17 upset of Colorado.
Childs, the self-described "power back" saw substantial playing time returning punts and kickoffs but only ran the ball three times last year, his freshman season.
The three even grew up in different environments. Bowles is from the flashy town of Las Vegas, Childs hails from Shawnee Mission West High School in Lenexa and Winbush comes to Lawrence from the high school football hotbed of Texas where he attended Ellison High School in Killeen.
Bowles said that each back's personal approach to the game was what set the three apart.
The differences between the three players' styles leaves plenty of playing time to go around, Winbush said.
"We all have separate jobs." Winbush said. "[The coaches] did a good job of splitting us up."
While Bowles and Winbush each
describe their styles as much more shifty, Childs said that he was much more of a north-south power runner.
"Most times, I try to run over [the defenders]," said Childs, who has gained about 12 pounds in the offseason. Coach Terry Allen said he was excited to see Childs' added weight pay off on the playing field.
"You've got the Winbush and Bowles tandem, but the thing that I'm very anxious to see this spring is Henri Childs at the running back position," Allen said. "You'd love to develop a big back."
The running back rotation is in the forefront of the team's spring practices, which wrap up April 24. But Winbush already has made one request on behalf of the three.
"We don't need a nickname," Winbush said.
The Jayhawks are awaiting word from junior college transfer defensive end Ryan Brock, who still has not returned from spring break, assistant athletics director Doug Vance said. Brock is at home in Riverside, Calif., and has told the Kansas football staff that he is unsure about his return.
■ Kansas does not practice today,
but will hit the fields again at 11:30
a.m. tomorrow for day three of spring
practice.

Commentary Rivalry will suffer without Stewart
The Kansas basketball program lost someone near and dear to its heart yesterday.
Well, maybe not so near and dear. But one cannot deny that Norm Stewart was closely related to the Kansas basketball program.
But despite his attempt at hair plugs, Stewart could not keep up with the times. Clashes between Stewart and freshman standout Keyon Dooling permeated the media this year. And television reports Wednesday said some players threatened to transfer if Stewart returned.
A
Norm Stewart was his own institution at Missouri. In his 32 years, he compiled 731 lifetime victories, seventh among major college coaches.
Erin Thompson
sports@kansan.com
But not only was Stewart an institution at Missouri, he carried quite a few traditions at Kansas as well. From the moment he'd walk into Allen Fieldhouse, chants of "Sit down, Norm" would fill the arena.
In the two years of Kansas excellence, prior to this year, nobody in the Big 12 could defeat the Jayhawks — nobody except Norm and his Tigers. And this year, when we finally were able to beat Mizzou at the Hearnes Center, Norm countered and beat the Jayhawks at Allen Fieldhouse.
Nobody can argue with the fact that Norm brought emotion and fire to the traditional border rivalry. And I for one will find the Missouri-Kansas rivalry a little less intense in future years.
Speaking of Norm Stewart, one of the names being tossed about is Duke assistant Quin Snyder. Could the Tigers possibly have found somebody more weseley looking and with worse hair than Stewart? The answer if Snyder is hired — yes.
In the last few days every major story that has come across my desk seems to have some Northern Iowa connection. Northern Iowa seems to be the training ground for coaching. Obviously, our own Terry Allen got his start at the school. The new basketball assistant Ben Miller's father, Eldon, is a former head coach at Northern Iowa. And, yes, Norm Stewart coached six years for the Panthers. Not to mention Wichita North alum and Northern Iowa pitcher Matt Cobb was Missouri Valley Conference player of the week last week.
Michael Jordan's agent yesterday reported "His Airness" was not making plans to play for the Charlotte Hornets. He was merely making plans to buy 50 percent of the team. The NBA constitution prohibits owners from playing. Maybe this will put to rest all the rumors of Roy Williams, Dean Smith and Phil Jackson being possible coaches for the Hornets.
Erin's final thought — If you're Zac Wegner with no pro future, do you come back and put yourself at risk of another concussion when your short term memory already is faltering?
Thompson is on Wichita senior in journalism.

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday:
You're lucky right now, and it's a good thing, too, because somebody seems to be out to get you. This person takes offense at almost everything you say, especially in April. In May, it not so bad, but do watch your pocketbook. You'll have a chance to spend more than you have, but let it go by. Save up for an adventure in December instead, and a reunion with old friends next February.
Aries (March 21-April 19): Today is a 5.
Looks like a good day to spend money on something you've been wanting for ages. You've probably been saved up, but may not have quite enough yet. If you pool your resources with another person, you could have it sooner instead of later, which is not a bad idea
Taurus (April 20-May 20): Today is a 5.
Taurus (April 21-May 20): Today is a 5.
Looks like you're going to do pretty well today, eventually. It's not going to look like that for a while, however. It will initially appear that your every move is blocked. Just stay on course and don't take no for an answer.
Gemini (May 21-June 21): Today is a 6.
Gemini (May 21-June 21): Today is a 6.
Be careful if you're pushing hard at work today. There could be an accident, and you don't want it to happen to You. Also, watch out for the other people, especially anybody dealing with caustic materials or poisons. You want to move quickly. Advise your friends to be cautious.
Cancer (June 22-July 22): Today is a 6.
Cancer (June 22-July 22): Today is a B.
This is a much better day for you in many ways, but there is one little problem, still — an authority figure who seems to enjoy learning on your. It exasperating, but today it won't be too bad. Looks like this person is in a frivolous mood. Not a good day to ask for more money, though.
Leo (Julv 23-Aug. 22): Today is a 5.
June 23-25 Aug. 22). Today is a bit.
The desire to stay home in bed will be very strong
today, but you probably won't get away with it. You
might later wish that you had, however. Looks like a clash with a partner could put you in a blue mood. It can only be temporary, though, since it is Friday.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Today is a 6.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Today is a 6.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): today is a o.
Looks like you’re under a quite b of pressure at work, and the pace is quick. Unfortunately, you need to stop and read the manual, but you don’t really have the time. Your best bet may be to call someone who already knows instead of trying to figure it out yourself.
LUDA Sep. 25 2019
You work hard for your money, and today some of that hard work is going to finally pay off. If you've done a very good job on a recent assignment, you'll be rewarded with not only more money, but also more respect. Hold out for that respect. It's the most important part.
Saaittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Today is a 5.
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Today is a 5.
You may have to dig in your heels today. Another person wants to change the procedure, but you know what will work best. You've been through this routine before. Let your experience prevail, but don't totally squash another's enthusiasm. With both, you're a formidable team.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Today is a 5.
You're under increased pressure to prove you know what you're talking about, prove you know where you're going, prove your love, whatever. It's bound to come up today.
Don't try to wiggle out of it. It's part of your education. Just let people know where you stand and you'll do fine.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Today is a 6.
You have friends in high places, and today they're encouraging you to try new things. You want to comply, but feel a certain reluctance, especially if there's danger involved. Caution is warranted. There could be a breakdown, and you don't want it to cost you.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Today is a 5.
A stern authority figure is going to give you fits today if you don't go along with the program. Unfortunately, you can't. You can see there's a problem, but you may not know exactly what it is yet. You might be helping today simply by applying the brakes.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Today is a 6.
There's a conflict of interest today between something you want to do that's an adventure, and something you feel you have to do that's closer to home. This is not a good day to take risks anyway, so put off the adventure until tomorrow.

Vanderbilt hires former Kansas assistant coach
NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Vanderbilt hired Kevin Stallings of Illinois state as men's basketball coach yesterday. Stallings, 29, called the job "a new

VANDERBILT
"It's well documented that I've been offered other openings in the past few years, but
this is the best fit at the best time," he said. "Everything is in place to have enormous success at Vanderbilt."
Stallings had a 123-63 record at Illinois State, and took the Redbirds to the NCAA tournament in 1997 and 1998.
"Kevin Stallings has proven himself to be one of the best coaches in the country," Vandy athletic director Todd Turner said. "His desire to come to Vanderbilt further illustrates our commitment to have a championship basketball program."
Stallings played for Purdue from 1980-82, then started his coaching career as an assistant there under Gene Keady. He stayed there for six seasons before becoming an assistant at Kansas from 1989-93, then got his first head coaching assignment at Illinois State.
Stallings replaces Jan van Breda Koiff, who resigned.
WSU athletic director to retire this summer
WICHITA — Bill Belknap, athletic director at Wichita State University since 1993, announced his retirement yesterday, effective June 30.
Belknap, who recently turned 60,
said he was retiring because his age
would not allow him to make a long-
term commitment to the administration
of Donald Beggs, who took over
as president Jan. 1.
"It's a reasonably good time for me to retire, and I think it's an appropriate time for the university," Belknap
said. "One of the things that I took into consideration was the change in administration, because I was unable to make a long-term commitment to the new president, Don Beggs.
"I didn't think that it was particularly fair to stay based on that, and after I thought about it, the fairest thing was to tell him, seek his counsel and to give him the opportunity to select his own person."
Scorpion
bunknap, who originally wanted to retire in December, said his decision was unrelated to turmoil involving the men's basketball team and star player Maurice Evans.
Belknap took action against coach Randy Smithson after Evans left the team Jan. 26 for eight days, complaining that players felt demeaned
and isolated by the coaching staff. A university investigation ordered by
WSU
Wichita State University
Beggs found that Smithson had violated NCAA practice limits. Smithson was reprimanded, his contract was not routinely extended as it had been and he and his coaches were not given pay raises. Practices were ordered below NCAA limits.
Coach changes mind twice about Georgia
ATHENS, Ga. — Jim Harrick changed his mind twice yesterday, deciding after a surreal day of back-and-forth to accept the job as Georgia's basketball coach.
On Wednesday, Harrick took the job at Georgia, only to announce Thursday morning that he had changed his mind because of family concerns and would remain at Rhode Island, where he coached the past two seasons.
In the afternoon, after flying back to Providence and consulting with his family, Harrick changed his mind again, saying he wanted to join the Bulldogs after all. Then it was up to Georgia officials to decide if they wanted Harrick back.
Michael Adams, a close friend of Harrick, and athletic director Vince Dooley, who was touring Civil War battlefields in Virginia with his grandson, decided to stick with their original choice.
"I would not have understood or accepted any reason other than family," Dooley said during a conference call. "I believe strongly in that, and I've come to admire coach Harrick even more because of his deep feeling for family."
After consulting for just more than an hour by telephone, university president
GREEN BAY, Wis. — Brett Favre, who once protested when the NFL made him refrain from drinking, now is making a conscious effort to abstain from alcohol.
Packers Favre making effort to resist alcohol
The Packers quarterback underwent rehabilitation for an addiction to painkillers three years ago. Afterwards, he complained that it was unfair that the NFL had banned him from drinking as part of its rehabilitation program.
The three-time NFL MVP said in an interview with the Green Bay Press-Gazette published yesterday that the decision was based on reasons that were both personal and professional.
He said his decision to quit drinking wasn't related to that, but rather to a desire to have a long and productive career and to be a good family man.
Pro baseball jerseys may provide ad space
NEW YORK — Major league baseball officials are considering allowing teams to sell advertising on the sleeves of the uniforms. The ads, first reported this week by the Sports Business Journal, could be on one to 1.1/2-inch square patches — perhaps too small to be easily seen from the upper deck, but certainly big enough to be picked up in TV closeups and photographs.
Although shoes and equipment such as bats and gloves carry brand names and logos, ads on uniforms apparently would be a first for the four
major U.S. team sports. Currently, the only corporate marking on baseball uniforms is an "R" for Russell Athletic, the manufacturer of the jerseys.
NCAA could change eligibility standards
New drug testing rules adopted for swimmers
The NCAA said it had been studying modifications in its minimum standards for months before U.S. District Judge Ronald Buckwalter ruled in Philadelphia that relying on test scores "has an unjustified disparate impact against African Americans."
The NC100AO hopes to have modifications of the standards in place by Sept. 1, said Penn State president Graham B. Spanier, chairman of the NCAA Division I Board of Directors.
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The NCAA said it could have changes ready in freshman eligibility standards by September that likely would place less weight on the standardized test scores.
HONG KONG — Swimming's governing body adopted new rules in an effort to make it harder for drug cheats to evade detection and punishment.
FINA Officials also said swimmers at the world short-course championships in Hong Kong this week would be asked to give blood samples voluntarily to a group studying ways to detect illegal use of growth hormones to improve performance.
The standards — which include minimum scores on the SAT or ACT, a core group of high school courses and a minimum grade point average in that core — remain in effect after the 3rd U.S. Court of Appeals issued a stay of Buckwalters ruling on Tuesday.
The tests will be separate from those normally carried out at swimming competitions, and the results will be kept confidential.

Men's tennis poised to resume Big 12 play
By Melinda Weaver
sports@kansan.com
Kansas sportswriter
The Kansas men's tennis team will resume its Big 12 Conference schedule this weekend as it plays at Oklahoma today and at home against Colorado on Sunday.
The No. 42 Jayhawks, 9-2 overall, have faced only one conference rival this spring, beating Nebraska 4-3 March 6.
Neither Oklahoma nor Colorado is ranked.
In their last meeting with Oklahoma in the fall, the Jayhawks lost 4-1, which allowed Oklahoma to represent Region V in the National Team Indoors tournament.
"We want to finish with a high ranking, we have to do well in our conference matches," senior Kenny Powell said. "We have to beat all the teams we are supposed to beat, and a few that we aren't supposed to. Against a team like Oklahoma, we have to go out really focused."
Since the fall, Oklahoma's top player Adam Neal left the team, and Kansas added freshman Rodrigo Echagarray who has an 8-3 record in singles this season.
"Both Oklahoma and Colorado have pretty good talent," coach Mark Riley said. "We have improved a lot and have better talent, so we should be in good shape."

The main weakness for the team lately has been the doubles competition. After winning the doubles point in its last six matches, the Jawahrawaves have lost the point in the last five.

In collegiate tennis, the team that wins two of three doubles matches earns one point toward the team's final score.
During this five-game streak, the team rebounded for a victory behind strong singles play four times. Its only loss was a 5-2 defeat Saturday at the hands of Tulsa.
"We need to play with more enthusiasm on doubles," Riley said. "Our singles have been
outstanding, but our doubles have been very good or very bad. We need more consistency."
Senior Luis Uribe said he expected the team to win both matches if it continued to play as it had all spring.
"Everyone has to be focused and ready to play," Uribe said. "If we all do our jobs, we will be fine. It's a team game, and we all just have to be read."

Kansas fights two-game slump
No.32'Hawks prepare to play 'Huskers, Buffs
By Amanda Kaschube
Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas women's tennis team looks to snap its two-game losing streak this weekend when it faces conference foes Nebraska tomorrow and Colorado on Sunday.
Coach Jenny Garrity said this weekend was a must-win situation.
Kansas lost 5-4 to No. 55 South Florida and 6-3 to No. 20 Florida State during spring break.
"The team needs a major regroup from last weekend's play," she said. "We've talked about it in practices."
Kansas will look to senior Kris Sell at No.1 singles and junior Brooke Chiller at No.
2 singles for important wins.
"I'm very proud o Brooke's effort in singles," Garrity said. "She beat two good people in Florida, and she stepped up for the team."
Chiller is 13-15 this season.
Both Chiller and Sell are on two-game winning streaks.
Chiller said the team needed to focus on its individual games rather than who the opponent is or what the game score is.
Garrity said the team needed to use its weapons and strengths more to its advantage.
"We need to fight for every point and make things happen." she said.
Colorado is fourth in the Big 12, while Nebraska is seventh.
Kansas, 5-9, is fifth in the Big 12 with a 2-1 conference record. Last month, the Jayhawks defeated Texas Tech 7-2 and Iowa State 9-0.
Texas holds the top spot in the conference with an
Women's Tennis
impressive 105-game winning streak in the conference.
After dropping three of its last four matches, the Jayhawks fell nine spots in the rankings to No. 32.
Sell also fell in the singles rankings to No. 22 after losing to No.11 Michelle Dasso of Notre Dame and unranked Meg Griffin of Maryland. The highest Sell has been ranked this year was No.15. Sell is now 22-10.
The Jayhawks will play host to Nebraska at 11 a.m. tomorrow and Colorado at 10 a.m. Sunday. Both matches will be held outdoors at Robinson Courts, weather permitting.
The doubles team of Sell and freshman Cheryl Mallaiah also fell seven spots to No. 40. The pair split matches during the break and now post a 11-13 record.
Men's golf could master weekend invitational

A good showing by the Kansas men's golf team at this weekend's Cleveland Golf/Augusta State Invitational is almost essential.
After all, a good showing would make attending The Masters next week more enjoyable.
The Masters, the Professional Golf Association's most prestigious tournament, begins with a practice round Monday, and the Jayhawks will be among the 19 collegiate teams with free passes.

Kansas coach Ross Randall said that he tried to give each graduating class the opportunity to attend the Invitational and The Masters.
"The last time we went, (senior) Chris Thompson was a redshirt freshman" he said. "I know this will be big for him, and I hope it adds motivation for him because he is going to play pro golf."
Randall said that he had attended The Masters many times before. But for many of the Jayhawks, including junior Jake Istick, this will be their first, and perhaps only, opportunity to attend golf's version of the Super Bowl.
"I think a good performance this weekend would make things more enjoyable on Monday," Istnick said. "That way we can walk around with our head high and full of confidence Monday."
Istrick won his first individual collegiate title last weekend at the Stevinson Ranch Invitational in Stevinson, Calif. The Jayhawks also came through with their first team title of the spring season.
Istnick said that last weekend was the first time the Jayhawks had played well as a team during the spring season.
"We clicked as a team," he said. "I just wanted to help us win the tournament. After three rounds, I just happened to be the golfer with the lowest score."
There is a strong demand to be in the Augusta State Invittional. Randall said that 50 to 60 teams that would like to attend don't get invitations.
"For us this is a free tournament, in that we usually play district teams, but we are seeing teams this weekend that we don't normally see," he said. "So I think that there won't be as much pressure on us this weekend. After last weekend's performance, I know that we can compete with any team in this field."
This weekend's invitational will feature seven teams that are ranked in the March 25 edition of the MasterCard Collegiate Golf Rankings, including No.19 North Florida, No.29 Mississippi, No.34 Southern Methodist, No.4 South Alabama, No.42 Kansas, No.43 Augusta State and No.48 Alabama.
"It may not be the best field, but it is a good field," Randall said. "Just being in Augusta the week before The Masters is enough. It's one of the biggest weeks in sports. It's a real special thing for these guys."

Track teams to compete in Texas
By Mike Miller
sports@kanson.com
Kanson sportswriter
By Mike Miller
After competing in the Emporia State Relays yesterday, the men's and women's track teams traveled to Austin, Texas, to compete in the Texas Relays today.
One of the oldest and most prestigious track and field events in the country, almost 4,500 athletes from 325 teams will compete during the next three days, including more than 100 All-American athletes.
The Jayhawks will feature stand-out athletes at the meet.
Three-time senior All-American pole-vaulter Candy Mason set the school, Big 12 and Texas Relays records at last year's meet, with a vault of 12-feet, nine inches.
Mason also provisionally qualified for the javelin last year with a throw of 153 feet, one inch—the fourth-longest throw in school history.
"She's a one woman scoring machine — believe me," head coach Gary Schwartz said.
TRACK AND FIELD
Senior Lester Smith and sophomore All-Americans
Scott Russell and Andrea Branson also performed well at last year's meet, as all three finished in the top five of their events.
Branson finished third in the pole vault with a vault of 11 feet, 7 3/4 inches. Smith placed fifth in the triple jump, leaping 50 feet, 8 3/4 inches. Russell placed third
the javelin, throwing 235 feet and finished 14th in the hammer throw, with a mark of 174 feet, six inches.
The Relays are a homecoming of sorts for pole-vaulter Colby Miller. As a senior, he has experienced the best season of his college career. He qualified for the NCAA Indoor Championships last March.
Miller will compete against high school rival Jacob Davis, who holds the Big 12 pool vault record of 19 feet, 2/4 inches, just two inches off the collegiate record. Davis attends the University of Texas, which is the host of the meet.
"Every time I see Jacob, I want to beat him, but I just haven't gotten there yet," Miller said.

The Kansas softball team will enter tomorrow's game against Missouri with a 14-18 record and a six-game losing streak, but head coach Tracy Bunge said records and streaks didn't mean a thing in a Kansas versus

records and streaks in a Kansas versus Missouri match up.
"Anytime Kansas and Missouri get together, anything
Syllabus
can happen," Bunge said. "There is an intense rivalry between those two teams in any sport. I hate to lose to Missouri."
The 1 p.m. game will be played in Columbia, Mo, against the Tigers.
Junior outfielder Katie Mauld said playing against a rival such as Missouri
would give Kansas an extra incentive to win.
"We love to beat Missouri," she said. "Even players from out of state that come here pick up on the rivalry right away"
The team was having a good time, and they were focused and intense," she said.
Bunge said the team had one of its best practices of the season yesterday, which was a good sign going into such a big game.
Bunge said she was pleased with the team's ability to stay focused in the midst of a losing streak.
"The team is frustrated and they're down, but they showed me a (thursday)." Bunge said. "They didn't practice like a team on a six-game losing streak. I
Kansas will have had three days at home to practice before playing Missouri tomorrow.
don't think we have lost them mentally. There's still fighting."
One thing Kansas worked on during practice was batting. The Jayhawks only had six hits and four runs in two losses to Oklahoma City on Tuesday.

Josh Campbell, Olathe senior, drives for the disc for a point in an Ultimate Frisbee scrimmage. The men's team, the Horror Zontals, and the women's team, Betty, will play host to the 18th annual Foul's Fest tournament this weekend. Weekends by Ruben Noguera/KANSAN

Frisbee is Ultimate experience
P
Local tournament will reinforce teams' 'spirit of the game'
By Matt James
mjames@kansan.com
Kansas writerwriter
During the 1997-98 season, its road schedule allowed the team to dip its feet in the Atlantic and Pacific oceans, the Gulf of Mexico and Lake Michigan.
Maybe the Kansas Ultimate Frisbee teams' motto should be "have bags, will travel."
Its water antics not only brought them good luck, but served as a reminder of the teams' tireless dedication and willingness to seek out good competition.
This fall the Kansas men's (the HorrorZontals) and women's (Betty) Ultimate Frisbee club teams played in tournaments in Columbia, Mo. and Fayetteville, Ark. This spring, they've already traveled 705 miles to a tournament in Austin, Texas — which they won.
So how hard can it be, flying chartered jets to all corners of the country? Yeah right. Try rented cars packed to the brim with athletes and equipment.
Now it's time for the teams to put those feet up and wait for the good competition to come to Lawrence.
The Kansas teams, which were founded in 1981, will host the 18th annual Fools Fest Tournament Saturday and Sunday at the Shenk Complex at 23rd and Iowa streets.
Fools Fest consists of a men's and women's college division along with a men's open division, whose winner battles the college winner for the overall title. Each division in this year's event has eight teams. It includes teams from as far as Notre Dame, Indiana and perennial powerhouse Carlton College in Northfield, Minn.
"It's a big tournament because teams are getting ready for regionals and sectionals." HorrorZontals
LAKEWOOD
co-captain Jet Quenemoen said.
Betty and the HorrorZontals each moved from the Central-Northern Regional to the South Regional this season. They will battle in Austin, Texas, April 24 and 25 for the right to play at nationals in Boulder, Colo. The HorrorZontals have accomplished the feat 11 consecutive years.
So does the traveling discourage team members from participating? Not in the least.
"One of the highlights is being able to travel across the country and see cities that you wouldn't normally get to visit," Quenemoen said.
Betty captain and president Stefanie Kerr couldn't agree more.
"Traveling is the best part of the season," she said. "It's a great way to get to know each other. We've become a support unit for each other. The friends will be with me for the rest of my life."
But as any team member will tell you, competitive Ultimate Frisbee is much more than just a club to make friends. Everyone plays to win, while keeping the "spirit of the game" — a phrase stated in the official rules of the sport.
Frisbee survives with no officials. That spirit is tested every time a player makes his own line or foul call.
At a time in sports when boxing judges and Major League Baseball umpires have come under heavy criticism, and the NFL has voted to reinstate instant replay, Ultimate
"When you make an awesome catch and you know you're out of
bounds, it feels good to be honest," Kerr said. "It's that spirit that makes the game so unique and special."
No physical contact is allowed during the game, and when a player initiates contact with another player a foul occurs. If the player committing the foul disagrees with the foul call, the play is redone. Imagine Kansas men's basketball coach Roy Williams disagreeing with a foul call and receiving a another chance at the play — not likely.
— aspects of basketball come into play as well. Teams play either zone or man defense, depending on personal and weather factors.
Although Ultimate Frisbee resembles football — points are scored by getting the Frisbee to the end zone
Speedy players, such as Oscar Zavarse, Caracas, Venezuela, freshman, who teammates describe as a "defensive nightmare," become as important as the most talented throwers. Defense is always essential, but comes into play most in the wind, something everyone who has thrown a frisbee in Kansas can understand.
ine wind works to our advantage because there could be wind at any tournament, and we're always prepared for that. It makes you be more accurate and precise with your throws," Quenemoen said.
Ultimate stresses sportsmanship and fair play. Competitive play is encouraged, but never at the expense of respect between players, adherence to the rules and the basic joy of play.
"Everybody should try it once," Quenmoen said. "Either come out with us or just play in a summer league. It's great."

THE STUDENT NEWSPAPER OF THE UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS
(UPSP 650-640)
Senator speaks for technology spending
Roberts: Advocates technology funding for universities.
By Jennifer Roush jrush@kansan.com Konsan staff writer
Sen. Pat Roberts spoke about the need for more funding in science, research and technology at Kansas universities to about 100 academics and business leaders Friday in Topeka.
In a speech to his Advisory Committee on Science, Technology and the Future, Roberts said funding and university faculty salaries in Kansas were inadequate and were driving prospective university researchers away from
the state.
"Kansas is falling dangerously behind other progressive states in providing an adequate science, math and engineering infrastructure," he said. "If Kansas cannot compete in these areas, we cannot prosper."
ince and technology.
"I do not seek to complicate the job they do," he said. "I do, however, urge that Kanaas begin viewing spending on science, engineering and high technology research as an investment in the future, not a cost."
The committee, which has members from universities and businesses throughout the state, is led by chairman Howard Mossberg, vice chancellor emeritus at the University of Kansas.
Roberts said that although he would not interfere with the faculty salary debate in the Kansas Legislature, he

gram to help encourage students to study computer networks and security.
Robert Barnhill, vice chancellor of research and public service, said he agreed with Roberts proposals.
He said if Roberts' proposed legislation passed, there would be more federal dollars for KU students and professors. He said the University of Kansas was the leading university in the state for information technology.
There are national reasons that the
senator is pushing this," Barnhill said. "It's in the national interest, but it's also in the state's interest. We want to be able to create technology jobs in Kansas and keep professors here."
Uncleiller Robert Roberthemway also was impressed with Roberts' remarks.
"I think Sen. Roberts is making an important point," he said. "I think the legislature has a sincere commitment to progress and a sincere commitment to education. We need to keep good faculty members here, and the way you ensure that is by making sure they're paid competitive salaries."

Digital Jayhawk makes its online debut

The University of Kansas' new online community and journalism production laboratory made its debut Friday.
The Digital Jayhawk Web site was unveiled at 3 p.m. in 130 Budig Hall before an audience of about 100 journalism faculty and students that included James K. Gentry, dean of the school of journalism, and Chancellor Robert Hemenway.
"This demonstrates the kind of creative solution that can come out of a commitment to technology," he said. "I see nothing but good that will come out of this."
Gary Hawke, executive director of the Digital Jayhawk, said that although he was glad to see faculty and administrators at the event, he would have liked to have seen more students.
Hemenway said he was impressed with the demonstration of the Digital Jayhawk's capabilities.
Christopher Ryan, technical/content director of the site, said he was happy with the number of people who showed up to see the Digital Jayhawk for the first time and was not disappointed that the audience contained few students.
"Most of the invitations we sent out went to journalism faculty and students," he said. "It's hard to get students to show up for things on a Friday afternoon, even if you're

Senate candidates to debate KU issues
By Nadia Mustafa

Kansan staff writer
Some student senators are skeptical about the panel of state legislators and KU administrators that will pose questions at a formal Student Senate debate tonight.
Rep. James Garner; Sen. Anthony Hensley; Barbara Ballard, assistant vice chancellor of student affairs; David Ambler, vice chancellor of student affairs; Jim Kitchen, associate vice chancellor and dean of students; and Gloria Flores, associate director of the freshman-sophomore advising center, will serve on the panel.
Each panelist will ask the student body presidential and vice presidential candidates two questions, ranging from state legislative issues such as the cost-fee ratio, to campus issues including a joint public transportation system and a new marketing center.
Ryan Robertson, senior guard for the Kansas basketball team, will moderate the debate.
The debate, which will be held at 9 p.m. at the Kansas Union Ballroom, is sponsored by the elections commission, Young Democrats and College Republicans.
Jen Watkins, elections commissioner said the commission invited state legislators to serve on the panel at the formal debate because most students were also Kansas residents who were concerned with state issues.
The candidates also will participate in an informal debate at noon April 12 in front of Wescoe Hall, where students will have the opportunity to pose questions.
"The student body president is going to be doing a lot of lobbying with the state legislature, so it's good to have them on the panel," she said.
the paper. Watkins said the commission chose administrators to be panelists because they were knowledgeable about campus issues. She also said Robertson would be a good moderator.
"He watches the shot clock every night, so he'll be great at watching the clock and
keeping the debate going," Watkins said.
But some candidates were unsure whether the commission made the right choices.
Seth Hoffman, Lenena junior and Delta Force candidate for student body president, said the only flaw was the lack of faculty members on the panel because they dealt with students on a regular basis.

Hoffman's running mate, Mary Liu. Lawrence junior, said that she did not know how beneficial the debate would be if students were not able to ask questions. She said she was expecting the state legislators to ask questions about state legislative issues such as faculty salaries and financial aid.
Korb Maxwell, Leawood senior and YOU candidate for student body president, said he was glad that Robertson would be the moderator because he would attract students to the debate who had not already been swayed by either coalition.
Flores, another panelist, said she wanted the candidates to elaborate on their campaign platforms. In her questioning, she will highlight the issue of diversity and multiculturalism on campus. She said she also was curious about Dalta Forma.

"It's easy to just be in their own worlds on Wednesday nights," she said. "But KU is bigger than that Wednesday night arena."
Hoffman said he hoped the debate would highlight the differences between the two coalitions' commitments to their platform issues, many of which were similar
Maxwell said he thought the debate had the potential to change the course of the election.

KU professors try to untangle confusion of Kosovo crisis
By Dan Curry
By Dan Curry dcurry@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
kosovo has been wracked by war since Slobodan Milosevic launched a campaign against separatist ethnic Albanian rebels in February 1998. This war has left more than 2,000 people dead.
NATO bombs splinter buildings and break bones in Kosovo, and more than 190,000 refugees scramble across borders.
Many KU students are troubled by these events. But many are just as mystified.
"Itry to keep up with the news about the conflict on the radio," said Aaron Showalater, Prairie Village senior. "But I feel like I'm coming in on the conversation too late."
“This term seems to be one that is used exclusively in the U.S. media, as I have not noticed a corresponding term in German, French or Russian reports on Kosovo,” said Marc Greenberg, associate professor of Slavic Languages & Literatures. “I believe it refers to Albanians in Kosovo, Yugoslavia, in contrast to Albanians from the Republic of Albania.” What does the United States hope to accommodate?
students on campus, three KU professors offered their opinions on the complicated situation that the Kosovo conflict has become.
In response to questions gathered from
What does Ethnic Albanian mean?
What does the United States hope to accomplish in Kosovo?
"Initially, the announcement goal was getting Serbia to sign the U.S.-sponsored peace agreement," said Paul D'Anier, associate professor of political science
and government. "Just before the bombing began, the goal subtly shifted to damaging Serb military capabilities and limiting ethnic cleansing.
inguiscates. "Clearly, limiting the suffering of the Albanian population of Kosovo has been a goal, and a fair amount of effort has been expended on taking care of refugees." How are Yugoslavia, Serbia and Albania related? Do they use the same language?
"Yugoslavia was created as a multinational state in 1920 as a result of the disintegration of the Turkish and Austro-Hungarian Empires," Greenberg said.
"The main constituent nations that made up this state were Slovenes, Croats and Serbs, all of whom are closely related Slavic peoples who speak mutually intelligible languages.
"The Yugoslav state included within its
borders other minority groups that did not rank with the first group of Slavic nations, including Hungarians, Albanians, Gypsies, Jews, Rusins, Turks and others.
"Albanians came rather late to build a nation-state, in part because they themselves had become religiously and culturally divided. Albanians are not Slavic, but are, linguistically speaking, a separate branch of the Indo-European language family; thus as closely related to Serbian as, say, English is to Russian." Where will the refugees go?
where will their pressures in the past, Albanians have moved into Kosovo, Macedonia, Greece, Italy, and, of course, the United States," said Norman Saul, professor of history. "But none of these areas outside Kosovo are prepared to handle the current flood of refugees on a permanent
basis. The Milosevic policy had been to force a gradual exodus, but the bombing changed that into a general cleansing. It would seem that now there is no place for them to go except back to Kosovo." What are the chances of this escalating into a world war?
"Nil. We're not even willing to put in ground troops," D'Anieri said. "Russia couldn't put in ground troops even if it wanted to. No one is going to back Serbia."

Muslims riot in dispute about pilgramage site
NAZARETH, Israel — Easter Sunday turned violent in the town of Jesus' boyhood when clashes erupted between Christians and Muslims, who are angry about the planned construction of a plaza for millennium Christian pilgrims near a mosque.
Thousands of young Muslim men gathered at the disputed site near the Church of the Annunciation, where Muslims have been holding protests for nearly a year.
Some hurled insults and curses at worshippers as they left the church, where Roman Catholic tradition holds that the angel Gabriel appeared before Mary and told her she was pregnant. Other youths, wielding clubs, smashed wind-shields of cars with crosses dangling from the mirrors.
More than 70 Israeli police in riot gear were brought in but made little effort to halt the violence. At one point, a group of policemen stood by while Muslim youths smashed the window of a gold-colored Mercedes. Seven people were injured and 30 cars were damaged, according to police.
About 18 hours after the clashes began, six Muslimism throwers
were arrested for rioting and public disturbances, said police spokeswoman Linda Menuhin. Muslim protesters responded by pelting troops with rocks and police fired back with tear gas, she said.
Church doors were shut after early morning prayers yesterday and there was no comment from Christian officials.
The clashes, between the city's majority Muslims and minority Christians, came after months of rising tensions surrounding year 2000 festivities.
AMMAN, Jordan — Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat's international tour to discuss declaring his territory an independent state brought him Sunday to Jordan, where he held talks with King Abdullah.
Jordan urges Arafat to postpone statehood
(1)
Jordan, like other countries, has been truing to coax arafat to post
pone a proclamation of statehood until after the May 17 Israeli elections, fearing that an early announcement could lead to the victory of hard-line politicians.
Arafat: Planning to declare Palestine a separate state.
Arafat has said he has the right to declare a state on May 4, when a five-year
interim autonomy period laid down in agreements with Israel ends. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has threatened to annex parts of the West Bank if Arafat does so.
King Abdullah reiterated "support to our Palestinian brethren ... until they regain their full rights as stipulated in signed peace accords," Jordanian state radio reported.
The radio had no further details on the hour-long meeting at Raghadan Palace in Amman. Afterwards, Arafat returned home to Gaza and Abdullah flew to Saudi Arabia.
From Gaza, the Palestinian leader quickly will leave again for the last leg of a world tour to consult about the statehood move. He goes to Turkey on Monday, then travels to Russia, India, China, Japan and possibly India and Malaysia, Arafat aide Nabil Abdureeneh said.
Arafat met with President Clinton at the White House and European leaders last month. He has also held talks in Egypt, Morocco and Tunisia.

Petition aiming for KU policy on hate crimes

elections commission today
Caldwell said a wide variety of students had signed the petition.
"You couldn't pin down who would sign the petition," he said. "We got as many signatures off the YOU table as we did off the Delta Force table, from the most conservative to the most liberal."
After the commission counts the signatures, the policy proposal will be placed on the ballot for a student body referendum during Student Senate elections April 14 and 15.
The proposal calls for mandatory and permanent expulsion of students who are convicted in a court of law of violent hate crimes or sexual assault.
If students vote in favor of the policy, Student Senate and the administration would approve it before it becomes law.
cardwell said he hoped the policy would be implemented
within a year.
He said the policy did not inhibit freedom of speech and was not aimed at hate speech, but at incidents of violence or continual threats with the potential of violent behavior.
For example, Caldwell said, the student who burned a swastika into the carpet at Oliver Hall would not be expelled under the policy, because it was an isolated incident which could be considered a case of freedom of speech. He said the culprit would only be convicted of property damage.
Caldwell said that if the proposal were passed and approved, a board composed of students and faculty members could review cases of hate crimes and sexual assault.
"The wording is intentionally open as to how it will come to fruition," he said. "We wanted to leave some room for Senate or the administration to hash it out."
Caldwell said some administrators were concerned about the policy's constitutionality in light of the lack of federal policy regarding hate crimes. But, he said, the policy would be constitutional because the University reserved the right to expel students for certain types of behavior.
"It's something that will be shocking to the administration at first, but they could get used to it," Caldwell said. "Student votes carry a lot of power."
Chris Keary, assistant director of the KU Public Safety Office, said the Office would support a policy that would combat hate crimes.
"The general policy is that we're against any crime, and hate crimes would certainly be among those." he said.

Bill Graves. But they took opposite

Graves' budget allocated $2.5 million for a meritorious faculty fund. In February the House Appropriations Committee cut that amount to $1 million, but in March the Senate Ways and Means Committee added $800,000, bringing the fund to $3.4 million.
State university funding and other differences in the House and Senate
Hemenway said that although the House budget contained far less money for faculty salaries than the Senate version, he was optimistic about what the conference committee would produce.
budgets mean a conference committee will work this week to iron out conflicts and reach a compromise.
"We've heard that in the House there are strong supporters of faculty salaries," he said. "I think there's a good chance we'll come out of conference with close to a 5 percent increase."
The University of Kansas and the Board of Regents have been pushing for a 7.6 percent increase in faculty
salaries at the six Regents universities.
Officials have voiced concern about average salaries falling behind those at universities nationwide, which they fear will spark an exodus of faculty to other states and an inability to attract new faculty.
"Our priority has been the same from day one," Hemenway said. "But if we can't get the 7.6 percent we'll get as close to that as possible."
Marvin Burris, director of governmental relations for the Board of Regents, said the conference committee was scheduled to begin work on the budget today. The regular session of the Legislature adjourns Friday.

City Commission elections tomorrow
Art Center relocation issue important for candidates
By Heather Woodward

Candidates for the Lawrence City Commission are dealing with the last day of pre-election jitters before gearing up for tomorrow's general election.
Six candidates are running for three seats on the commission, which are being vacated by Bonnie Augustine, Bob Moody and John Nalbandian, who are not seeking re-election.
David Dunfield, who came in fourth out of nine candidates in the March 2 primary election, said he felt surprisingly calm about the nearing election.
"I think my chances are very good. I do expect to win a seat on the city commission. I think it is possible to go from fourth to first place from the primary to the general election." Dunfield said.
Denise Gibson, who came in fifth in the primary,
said she was a little bit nervous about what will
happen tomorrow night.
"I think it is one of those things that you are excited to get here and get over with," Gibson said. O. Scott Henderson, who came in sixth in the primary, said he was not very optimistic about his chances of winning.
said he was not concerned about winning votes tomorrow night.
chauses I really doubt that I will win a seat on the commission," Henderson said. "I got half as many votes as the person who came in first in the primary election. It is really unfortunate, but I think it is going to come down to money winning this election. Going into the campaign, the commissioners' salary was $6,000 and there are people who have spent twice that much to get a seat."
Jim Henry, who came in second in the primary.
"I really am confident because everywhere I have gone, people say you have my vote," Henry said.
Brenda McFadden, who came in first in the primary, said she was not nervous about the election but also was not certain of her chance to win a seat.
"I am not confident about the election," McFadden said. "It is not in my nature. I am pretty hard on myself. I still think I am going to come in fourth."
Mike Rundle, who came in third in the primary, said he felt secure as the election approaches.
"But I'm fairly confident. I have been doing a lot to make sure that people are informed and take advantage of their right to vote," Rundle said.
Some of the candidates said that since the beginning of their campaigns, they had developed strong feelings about certain issues, such as the possible addition of a Lawrence Arts Center, 200 W. Ninth St., to the Downtown 2000 project.
David Dunfield, who is 46 and an architect at Glenn Livinggood Penzler Architects,1001 New Hampshire St., said he would not be able to vote on any action taken regarding the Downtown 2000 project or the possibility of the Arts Center moving there.
"I do not think that my voting on it would be appropriate. But I still do think that it is important for the Arts Center to stay downtown, and this project has strong community backing," he said.
Dumfield said he wanted to address rental housing issues upon taking office.
Dense Gibson, who is 37 and a professional development manager for The Farm Inc., a nonprofit organization, said she thought New Hampshire Street was not the only option for a downtown Arts Center.
"I think that is an option, but there are a lot of
otter ones that have not been looked at," Gibson said.
Gibson also said that if elected, she wanted to work closely with the county commissioners and school board to address issues such as traffic and neighborhood safety.
O. Scott Henderson, who is 58 and a retired supervisor with Hallmark Cards, Inc., 101 McDonald Dr., said he wanted to see North Lawrence addressed by the commission.
"There is no grocery store or doctor's office or sit-down restaurant in North Lawrence," Henderson said. "There are dollar bills going right past Lawrence on the turnip. If we had put a sit-down restaurant at Tanger Mall, then a lot of people might venture off the Interstate and down into Lawrence."
Henry, who is 64 and a retired associate placement director at the University of Kansas, said he was in favor of the Arts Center moving to New Hampshire Street.
"I think it would be a real plus if it works out that way," Henry said. "They have had so many problems with the historic resource commission at their present location."
McFadden, who is 35 and owns McFadden & Associates, an accounting firm at 825 Vermont St., said she thought moving the Arts Center into the New Hampshire Street development was a good idea.
"This way they will not be confined by the space that have now. It is a win-win situation," McFadden said.
Rundle, who is 45 and is a membership services coordinator and newsletter editor for Community Mercantile, 901 Mississippi St., said he supported a public transportation system.
"I want to emphasize my support for a fixed-route transportation system in Lawrence." Rundle said.

Public transportation, jobs play role in Commission endorsements
The University Daily Kansan editorial board has endorsed Denise Gibson, James Henry and Brenda McFadden for tomorrow's election for the Lawrence City Commission.
Voters tomorrow will select three names from a pool of six candidates to fill the seats being vacated by commissioners Bob Moody, John Nalbandian and Bonnie Augustine.
Members of the Kansan editorial board interviewed and gathered information about the original pool of nine candidates — with the exception of David McKinzey, who did not make himself available to the media
before the March 2 primary elec.
The Kansan editorial board has favored three candidates for tomorrow's election.
tions.
The candidates were asked about the issues they thought were pressing in Lawrence, their connection to the University of Kansas and the role KU students should play as Lawrence residents.
Gibson, 37, is a professional development manager for The Farm Inc. and received undergraduate and graduate degrees from the University of Kansas. Gibson is a strong supporter of public transportation and is concerned with the closing and consolidating of public schools.
Henry, 64, is a retired associate director of the University of Kansas Placement Center. Henry also is a supporter of affordable public transportation and is interested in creating jobs for KU students in Lawrence.
McFadden, 35, is a certified public accountant and owner of McFadden & Associates. McFadden received a degree in business administration from the University, and she favors public transportation and maintenance of the downtown area.

State education spending needs hike
in the 1970s and '80s, the state developed an agreement with the Board of Regents to finance 75 percent of state tuition, leaving students to pay the remaining 25 percent. However, after years of high inflation and poor economy, the state deprioritized higher education.
education.
The result is a disturbing trend.
Tuition has risen about 400 percent since 1980 for an in-state resident.
Nonresident tuition has risen almost 600 percent.
Paying higher tuition would be expected because tuition nationwide is rising in both public and private institutions. However, KU student's tuition costs are rising at 2.5 times the state's contribution. The result is that students are paying 40 percent of their tuition and the state is only paying 60 percent. This is a long way from the 75/25 agreement.
The state needs to honor the 75/25 agreement concerning college tuition costs.
Even with this higher tuition, only 10.3 percent of students receive financial aid. Financial aid is crucial in helping people attend an institution with a quickly rising tuition, but our 10.3 percent is only half of the national average. For every dollar tuition rises and financial aid remains stagnant, there is one more student that cannot attend the University.
Coupled with rising costs is the slowly rising funding for the University. Faculty salaries are only 83 percent of those at other institutions, and about 3 percent of the top faculty leave every year for this reason. Technology, although slowly increasing, still is lacking on campus. As a result, students are paying more for less education.
There are two things that students can do to reverse these trends. The first is to vote. By voting for state legislators who would work for increases in state spending for higher education, problems of tuition, salaries, and technology would begin to disappear.
Second, students can support the Student Legislative Awareness Board. SLAB has been campaigning for tuition balancing since the beginning of the year, and it always will welcome more student help.
As students work toward both of these, the state will once again honor the 75/25 agreement. Only then will education become a public issue instead of a private one.

Enrollment techniques require luck, patience
Enrollment began Friday --- the glorious tradition of long lines and closed classes that marks the approaching end of the spring semester.
As the flowers start to bloom and bare legs become normal, hair is being pulled as students try to determine what classes to immerse themselves in this coming fall. By now, most students know that enrollment is much more than merely choosing classes. It is an art.

Perhaps when we are old and gray and looking back on our days at the University, the lines stretching

own long hallways, the strange smell of the enrollment room and the extremely nice — or extremely cranky — enrollment staff will creep into our memories.
These students — including myself — successfully have conquered the world of add/drop. I have become an honored veteran and founder of the add/drop support group.
I am the one who the enrollment staff knows by first name. I think they see me coming and draw straws to see who gets to help me.
For some, enrollment is easy; get in, get classes and get out. There is no doubt that the entire enrollment staff loves these individuals. They are the students who visit their adviser just before they hop into line so they know exactly which classes are open. They are also the individuals who have no idea what add/drop is. If you are one of these people, I admire you greatly.
Others simply are not as lucky as this select group. This group, which has a particularly tragic lack of luck, sends many down the road toward the infamous add/drop. They are the ones who have enrolled on the very last day of enrollment for the past five semesters.
You may have guessed it already, but I am the add/drop queen. Although this is a distinct honor, it is not exactly a voluntary position. I have had to go through add/drop every semester here.
I admit I am partially to blame. I love to "class shop." Class shopping is not for the
weak at heart. It entails visiting several sections of the same class to determine which will be best-suited for your individual needs. The beginning of this semester, I visited five different sections of an English class before settling on a convenient 9:30 a.m. Monday, Wednesday and Friday class.
This round of enrollment, I have vowed to keep all the classes I enroll in the first time. This is quite a lofty goal — especially considering that usually half the classes I actually want are open.
This semester, however, a tragedy occurred. I encountered a Western Civilization teacher who hails from the Islands of Evil, Close-Minded and Unsympathetic. This particular teacher ruined all the faith I had in teachers taking pity on poor students who have been cursed with late enrollment times.
Speaking of enrollment times, supposedly they rotate so everyone will have the opportunity to enroll early at some point.
Closed classes have never been a deterrent for me. I have viewed this detail as a small obstacle. I just hunt down the professor during office hours and stay in the class until he or she gives in and hands me a closed-class opener.
With a little luck, this round of enrolling will be easier, and it may even be successful.
Best of luck to everyone. Prepare yourselves for the long lines and visit your advisor just before you go. Put down real alternate choices, take care of all your outstanding fines, and once you actually get into the enrollment room remember to move the line all the way down to the windows.
Take heart in knowing that enrollment is a phenomenon that only occurs twice a year, and remember that someday you will graduate. Some wonderful spring day, when others are standing in long lines, permit to enroll in hand, you can walk by and smile. Smile at all the poor students frantically flipping through timetables in search of alternate classes, and stroll on by.
Until that wonderful spring day, I'll see you at Strong Hall.

Severing of thumbs jolts lazy critics back to basics
In light of the death of movie critic Gene Siskel earlier this spring, I have had a revelation. My idea is certain to create a new found respect and understanding between those
in the media who critique works of art and their readers.
On the downside, the idea unfortunately requires a regrettable amount of ghastly violence. Please humor me.
Here it goes: All critics, whether they review movies, books or restaurants, should have their thumbs hacked off with an axe.
Without those opposing appendages, critics would

And this means that I must share their guilt. Careful readers of the University Daily Kansan may recall that I was the one who inaugurated a star-rating system at the Kansan when I began reviewing movies in early 1998.
And why stop with the thumbs? Let's get the critics who rate movies or CDs with stars or — even worse — letter grades. Thumbs, stars, happy faces — it's all the same.
apprehender, or deprive of the limb that separates mankind from the apes. They would seem less than human.
Then again, this necessary surgical procedure has a positive outcome. Critics — particularly those who rely upon cute little catchphrases such as "two thumbs up" — would have to resort to other methods to get their opinions across to the public.
The sad thing is that my little act, made in the hope of emulating my movie critic heroes, has had a ripple effect.
Oh. darn.
I now have corrupted those who followed me.
All are guilty of the same offense.

made use of the red star card.
Our successors this spring, movie critic Brendan Walsh and music critic Matt Cox, have followed our lead with one adjustment: The four-star scale I introduced has been replaced with a letter-grade system similar to what students receive on their report cards.
I feel like Dr. Frankenstein, looking on in horror at the beast that I've created. I assure you that my tail is firmly nestled between my legs.
If critics truly believe that the things they review are legitimate art forms — and having worked among them for more than five years, I know that they do — then I fail to see how they can justify the use of such ratings. I certainly can't justify it.
others like the four-star scale and letter grades. Newspaper designers like them because they dress up gray text. Newspaper editors like them because they provide a point for the reader to jump into the story, and the ratings give readers an inking of simply whether the critic recommends the movie, CD or restaurant.
This practice, used across the nation and, yes, at the University Daily Kansan, has run its course.

come to the table.
A star-rating system or a letter grade tells readers what to think. Seeing such a marking in black and white has a chilling effect on readers.
Further, these ratings allow critics to become sloppy. Instead of providing a thoughtful discussion of a movie or CD's strengths and weaknesses, they strive toward a tute sound bite that doesn't extend justice to the work of art.

Memphis rally marks death of King
31st anniversary turnout a fraction of 1998 event's
The Associated Press
MEMPHIS, Tenn. — One year after 4,000 marchers stretched six blocks to mark the 30th anniversary of the death of Martin Luther King Jr., a scant 15 showed up yesterday to remember the slain civil rights leader.
The 31st anniversary rally, sponsored by the Memphis chapter of the NAACP youth council, featured chants, songs
and speeches. The group stood under the balcony of The Lorraine Motel, where King was assassinated in 1968.
"Society can be reborn again if we can stop violence and stop the hate," said 15-year-old Aren Cowan, the council's vice president, in a speech. She said this was the first year the anniversary has fallen on Easter Sunday.

"We didn't know anything about it," said Ruth Johnson, of Huntsville, Ala. "We were just here."
Kim Peters, a teacher from Fredericksburg, Va., said King was among the famous African Americans her classes discuss during February's black history month.
"I wanted to see this... We had no idea that anything like this was going on," she said.
the low-key rally was a stark
contrast to the 30th anniversary, when thousands of marchers, led by the Rev. Jesse Jackson and Memphis Mayor W.W. Herenton, sang We Shall Overcome and other standards from the civil-rights movement and carried pictures of King and signs saying, "Remember the Man and the Message."
Elsewhere in Memphis, several multiracial community worship services yesterday remembered King's life and death while celebrating Easter.
"It was 2,000 years ago that Jesus of Nazareth died on Calvary. And this place we call Memphis is a kind of Calvary
because a man of God died at The Lorraine Motel 31 years ago today," said Rev. Bill Adkins, pastor of the Greater Imani Church and Christian Center in a morning service at the Mid-South Colliseum.
King was slain in Memphis while helping organize a strike by city sanitation workers. He was standing on the balcony of The Lorraine when he was felled by a single rifle slug.
James Earl Ray, a prison escapee from Missouri, pleaded guilty to killing King and was sentenced to 99 years in prison. He later recanted. Ray died last April of liver disease at age 70.

April poetry series has Lawrence legacy
Langston Hughes could take pride in his Lawrence alma mater, Pinckney Elementary, whose poetic legacy blossomed once again a poetry reading on Friday.

The poetry reading, part of the Favorite Poem Project, is the first of a series of April readings to commemorate National Poetry Month. It features people from the University of Kansas and Lawrence reading their favorite poems. The reading took place at Borders Books Music and Cafe, 700 New Hampshire St.

Tapahonzo organized the poetry readings as a localization of the Library of Congress Bicentennial Project, which helps sponsor celebrity poetry readings.
"Because Lawrence is a small community, it'd be better to have a variety of people," Tapahonso said.
Also reciting poetry were Bob Martin, Haskell Indian Nations University president, Michael Johnson, professor of English and poet, Michael Kautsch, professor of law, Maley Williams, president of the Lawrence Public School Board, and Lawrence residents Lia DeRoin and Hank Booth.
Martin, Tapahonso's husband, made his debut at the poetry reading.
"I planned to read from some of my own work, some of my most creative memos," Martin joked.
He said Tapahonso dissuaded him from that approach.
Instead, Martin read from the poem "New World," by N. Scott Momaday.

"Sherman is one of the most important photographers of recent years," said John Pultz, curator of photography at the museum.

She did so at a time when there was a lot of interest in gender."

Administrators say planning eases problems
By Chris Hopkins
chopkins@kanson.com
Kansas staff writer
Online enrollment may be a ways away, but there are still things students can do to make enrollment easier.
The main enrollment period began on Friday and runs through April 23.
Rich Morrell, University registrar, said the most important thing students could do to ensure an easy enrollment was to make sure that their permit to enroll was complete with all the necessary stamps, holds cleared and alternate course selections listed.
Kathryn Tuttle, director of the Freshman-Sophomore Advising Center, said deciding on alternates ahead of time was important.
"Students need to list alternatives so they have some flexibility." she said.
Morrell said students could go to a room in the back of the Freshman-Sophomore Advising Center to clear many holds, including
fees, parking and immunization. He said the office would be open whenever enrollment was in session.
Morrell also said students should check the closed-class list before they enroll. The list is updated daily, he said, and is posted around the corner from the enrollment center.
Tuttle said classes with only one section, required courses and classes with a good reputation are the first to fill. Some departments might close faster than others, she said.
"Sometimes the English courses,

not the 100 level, but the 200 level, can fill quickly. "Turtle said."
Tuttle said that although she was biased because of her position, she thought that advising was another important step for students in any year to take.
Juniors or seniors should go to their department or school for their advising, Tuttle said.
"It's very painful for students to get to their senior year and find out they're a few classes short," she said.
Tuttle said that after students completely prepare for enrollment, they should arrive five to 10 minutes before their appointment time.
"There's no good reason to arrive an hour before their scheduled time," she said.
Tuttle said if a student missed their enrollment appointment time, they could enroll at any time after their scheduled time.
Amanda Escher, Topeka graduate student, worked for the enrollment center last semester. She said student preparation tended to be inconsistent.
"Some people know exactly what they need, some people don't have a clue," she said.

The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — In a riskladen escalation of the American military commitment, the United States has agreed to send 24 Apache helicopter gunships and 2,000 troops to Albania, giving NATO the ability to directly attack Serb troops and tanks in Yug slavia, the Clinton administration said yesterday.
United States adds gunships, 2,000 troops to Kosovo force
To protect the Apaches, U.S. troops will man 18 Multiple Launch Rocket Systems deployed to Albania as well as short- and medium-range missiles that can take out Yugoslav air defenses throughout Kosovo, where ethnic Albanians are under continued attack.
NATO leaders meeting today must approve using the weapons, followed by President Clinton. The Pentagon said it could take up to 10 days to deploy the Apaches from their base at Illesheim, Germany, because many U.S. military cargo planes also are being used for humanitarian aid.
Pentagon spokesman Kenneth Bacon said deploying the Apaches and rocket launcher was "a logical expansion" of the nearly two-week-old NATO airstrikes to halt Yugoslav Slobodan Milosevic's military drive against Kosovars in the Serbian province.
Bacon said the weapons would give them the type of tank-killing capability that bad weather had denied them.
"It will give us the capability to get up closer and personal to the Milosevic armor units in Kosovo, and to do a more effective job at eliminating or neutralizing the forces on the ground," Bacon said.
"Obviously, close-in engagement is by definition riskier than more distant engagement. But the army is trained to cope with that," he said.
He acknowledged the increasing risk to U.S. forces.
Amid the growing refugee crisis in the Balkans, the United States also said it temporarily would provide shelter for up to 20,000 ethnic Albanians fleeing Serb assaults while Eu'opean nations take in as many as 100,000 — but just until they can return home under international protection.
"These people have to go back, otherwise there are no people in Kosovo," Secretary of State Madeleine Albright said.
In opening its doors to the victims of Milosevic's effort to clear Kosovo of its ethnic Albanian majority, U.S. officials did not say where refugees might go, but suggested it would be outside the 50 states.
sen. Joseph Biden, D-Del., said on CNN that he was told the plan was to airlift the refugees to Guantanamo Bay Naval Base in Cuba, once used to house thousands of Haitians fleeing violence in their homeland. Bacon said no decision had been made and that there were appropriate U.S. facilities in Guam as well.
More than 350,000 ethnic Albanians have fled since NATO airstrikes began on March 24, and the exodus continued Sunday.
Albright, appearing on NBC's Meet the Press, blamed the refugee crisis on Milosevic, whose forces have continued attacks on ethnic Albanians and forced them by bus and on foot out of Kosovo, a province of Serbia.
She dismissed the suggestion that the air campaign led to the crisis.
"He has systematically brutalized his population," she said. "To say we are responsible for the refugees and the atrocities is
really like saying the police force is responsible for a serial killer." In other Kosovo-related developments:
Bacon said it was "encouraging" that the Yugoslav government had said it would treat three captured U.S. soldiers as prisoners of war, which could protect them from trial. The rangers were caught near the Macedonia-Yugoslav border last week and U.S. officials have called for their immediate release, although as POWs, they could be held until the end of hostilities.
■ Former Secretary of State Warren Christopher, writing Sunday in an opinion piece in The Washington Post, urged using "whatever force is necessary" to crush Milosevic's drive to control Kosovo and to ensure NATO does not fail in its first offensive fight in its 50-year history. "We should position strong, mobile forces in Macedonia and Albania to protect those fragile nations and to make it plain that no option has been foreclosed," Christopher wrote.
The Clinton administration continued to rule out using U.S. ground forces in Kosovo, despite criticism by members of Congress and military experts that the option should be kept open.
Several prominent congressional Republicans and Democrats urged President Clinton to make the use of ground troops in Kosovo an option.
"The diplomacy won't start until our president stops saying no ground troops," said Sen. Richard Lugar, R-Ind., chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. Democratic Sens. Charles Robb, D-Va. and Joe Biden, D-Del. also urged Clinton to keep the possibility of deploying U.S. forces in Kosovo as an option.
U.S. aircraft fleet in Iraq thinning
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — The Pentagon has diverted important parts of the U.S. air fleet charged with monitoring the sky over northern Iraq in order to sustain its role in NATO airstrikes against Yugoslavia, officials said.
Among the planes sent to Europe for the intensifying conflict with Yugoslavia are Navy EA-6B Prowlers, which are electronic warfare planes that jam and can attack air defense radars, and refueling aircraft, according to defense officials who discussed the matter on condition of anonymity.
As a result, the American and British fighter aircraft used to enforce a no-fly zone over northern Iraq have not flown since March 20, four days before NATO launched its air strikes against Yugoslavia.
Not coincidentally, U.S. officials have reported no Iraqi violations of the flight ban in that period, and almost daily U.S. and British attacks on Iraqi air-defense sites in the north have stopped. Air Force
F-15E attack planes conducted the last attack in northern Iraq on March 16, against anti-aircraft artillery. In the 10 days before that, U.S. planes attacked in northern Iraq almost every day.
The pace of confrontations in southern Iraq also has slackened, although allied planes are continuing to monitor the sky.
Yesterday, American F-16 and F/A-18 fighters, joined by British GR-1 Tornado fighters, attacked a surface-to-air missile battery and two unspecified communications sites south of Baghdad in response to Iraqi violations of the southern no-fly zone, Pentagon spokesman Bryan Whitman said. A second attack by allied planes yesterday also targeted similar Iraqi military installations in the region, the U.S. military said. There also was a U.S. attack Friday, the first since March 19.
U. S. planes did not fly over the northern nofly zone yesterday, the 15th straight day of no flights.
Allied aircraft based in Saudi Arabia and aboard a U.S. aircraft carrier in the Gulf carry out air patrols over the southern
zone, whereas the enforcement effort in the north relies entirely on land-based planes in Turkey.
rivatey, Pentagon officials express surprise that Iraqi President Saddam Hussein has not used the Yugoslavia conflict, which is drawing so much of the U.S. military's attention and resources, as an opportunity to make trouble in the no-fly zones, which are intended to suppress the Iraqi air force.
Asked last week why Saddam has been so quiet recently, Pentagon spokesman Kenneth Bacon replied, "I suppose the most charitable answer is perhaps his forces are exhausted and taking a break."
Ornithologists at U.S. European Command in Germany, whose aircraft at Intrilk Air Base, Turkey, are enforcing the northern no-fly zone, acknowledge that some aircraft have been diverted to the NATO campaign
They will provide no details, including how many or which kinds of aircraft were sent. The European Command's commander, U.S. Army Gen. Wesley Clark, also is the NATO commander who is directing the air war against Yugoslavia.

Suspects in journalist's slaying recant confessions
SAN ANTONIO — Two Huichol Indians who earlier admitted killing American journalist Philip True have changed their story, saying Mexican police tortured confessions from them.
"I didn't touch him. I didn't kill him," Juan Chivarra of the Cruz told the San Antonio Express-News. "I saw him walking by when I was vaccinating my cows. That's all."
De la Cruz, 28, and his brother-in-law, Miguel Hernandez de la Cruz, 24, remain jailed in the Mexican state of Jalisco, charged with murdering the former Express-News Mexico City correspondent.
True disappeared in December while on a 100-mile hike to document the Hutchols. His body was found in a shallow grave.
Pence say the men confessed to strangling True with his own neckchief because he
Now the two say Mexican police forced them to fabricate confessions.
Later, the men told reporters and a criminal court judge they killed True because he had threatened their families.
angered them by hiking through Indian land.
"They hit us a lot, so I decided to say, 'Yes,
yes, we did it,' Chivarra said.
yes, we will. Onward Pasture.
Hernandez told the Express-News that police hung him from a tree to gain his confession.
"If you are hanging from a tree,you will agree to anything," he said.
A Jalisco human-rights commission had earlier alleged the men were tortured into confessing.
Separate autopsies have also offered conflicting accounts of True's death. One by the Jalisco state coroner said True was strangled, while a federal autopsy said True died from fluid in his lungs and a blow to the head.

10 Things I
Hate About You
Rating: B
The Kat's meow: Patrick (Heath Leadh) is recruited to woo the standoffish Katrina (Julia Siles) in 10 Things I Hate
by Brendan Walsh
Kansan movie critic
About You, a modern-day update of "Taming of the Shrew." Contributed photo.
The teen romance genre is very limiting. Affection has to be kept innocent, dialogue must be dumbed down, the actors have to be acceptably attractive, but not distractingly beautiful, drinking and smoking have to be discouraged, the prom is a crucial event, and the good guys must win in the end. Good movies can still be made within these limiting factors.
10 Things I Hate About You is very loosely based about Shakespeare's "Taming of the Shrew." Bianca Stratford (Larisa Oleynik) spends most of her time thinking vapid things and trying to hatch rides with the high school jock. Her sister Kat reads Sylvia Plath, argues with her teachers about feminist curriculum and listens to riot girl rock music. Bianca can't wait to begin dating, but her paranoid obstetrician father (Larry Miller) forbids it. at her pleadings, he finally agrees to allow Bianca to date, but only if Kat does.
Somehow this deal becomes public knowledge at school and the minions of guys that have been waiting to date Bianca cospire to find Kat a date. Though Kat is an attractive girl, her standoff attitude and individualism intimidate most guys. Eventually Bianca's suitors pay the noble Patrick Verona (Heath Ledger) to date Kat and thereby free Bianca.
and they are.
It's soon clear that Patrick and Kat are meant for each other, if only Kat doesn't find out about the payoff.
the audience's attention then turns to the idealistic French tutor Cameron James (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) and the obviously evil Joey Donner (Andrew Keegan), who compete for Bianca's affections. While Joey has the looks, the cool car and the popularity, Cameron offers a reliable Volvo and total devotion.
As in the vast majority of high school romance movies, the climactic moments occur at the prom, where one finds out whether the obviously correct pairing of Kat and Patrick occurs, as well as the results of the incredibly unlikely melding of Bianca and Cameron.
Julia Stiles starred in the recent NBC miniseries The '60s and will play Ophelia opposite Ethan Hawke in a forthcoming movie of "Hamlet." She has by far the most acting ability of anyone in the cast, and
with her pretty face, long legs and curly hair, she seems in line to replace the aging Noxema girl (Brebca Gayheart).
Poor Joseph Gordon-Levitt, better known as Tommy Solomon on 3rd Rock From the Sun, was terribly
miscast as Bianca's beloved. He just isn't charming enough to compensate for his wimpy features and date the coolest girl in school.
Though terribly inconsistent (try not to gag at Kat's heart-rending sonnet at the end), 10 Things is one
of the better movies of its genre. Kat's character is compelling, though stereotypical, and the movie's humor reaches beyond the usual gross-out gags. The movie is wonderful, light-hearted entertainment.

Ultimate Fakebook
This Will Be Laughing Week
Rating: B
By Matt Cox Kansan music critic
If any local band embodies the rock/pop genre, it's definitely Ultimate Fakebone.
Its new album, This Will Be Laughing Week, offers addicting pop melodies embedded in a modern rock foundation, similar to its debut album, Electric Kissing Parties
Ultimate Fakebook claims to be influenced by the likes of Cheap Trick and The Replacements, but its music is more fun and enjoyable. Lead singer/guitarist Bill McShane's vocals fly over a wide range, hitting low notes and high notes in falsetto, which adds an admirable flair to every

song.
Soaked in Cinnamon is a casual love song that tosses the mind around in a rock
frenzy. McShane sings "Why do I feel soaked in cinnamon? Every time she touches me I choke, and her sugar sin gets hotter on my tongue."
The fact that McShane makes light of situations others take seriously offers a perspective that has a calming effect on an emotionally tired mind.
Of Course We Will is another slow tune about relationships not living up to people's dreams and expectations. The guitar notes violently oppose each other in some parts and then melodically come to an agreement to accentuate the sweet chorus. McShane sings, "You just can't let it get you down 'cuz that movie that's called 'Life Sucks' stars everyone and you're a bit part, girl."
The two gems on the album are She Don't Even Know My Name and Tell Me What You Want
She Don't Even Know My Name starts off
the album with Weezer-like guitar angst.
It's a story of him trying to get with a girl and having that one, last chance to connect with someone similar to himself. McShane sings, "And she wants to know why the world's so serious, cuz she don't know what for. Hope we fall in love before I wake up."
Tell Me What You Want offers the most in originality of chord progression on the album. The chorus screams '80s pop, but with more innovation because of McShane's vocal variety.
A Million Hearts, Little Apple Girl and Glitter & Glue don't live up to the standards set by the rest of the songs in style and the light-hearted feel, but they aren't terrible.
Other songs delight the ears, such as the sarcastic Brokyn Needle, the fashion-mocking Perfect Hair and the quasi-epic Real Drums.
Overall, Ultimate Fakebook has produced another great album that might win them more local music awards this year.

For The Mod Squad star Omar Epps, it's Hollywood today, White House tomorrow
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Omar Epps is starring in The Mod Squad, but he has his eye on a role that would give him even more exposure.
"Watch, I'm going to be the first black president of the United States," he said. "If Reagan can do it, I know I can."
Epps, 25. isn't short on ambition:
He has a rap album scheduled for release later this year. He is also directing music videos and writing scripts for TV development.
His 10-year plan is a formidable one.
"I'll be a conglomerate. I'll have my multimedia company running. I'll be the new Miramax. ... So by the time I turn about 45 or 50, I'll run for president," he said.
Given Epps' track record, he has a pretty good shot at accomplishing his goals. A graduate of New York's prestigious High School of Performing Arts, Epps drew early acclaim in Juice, co-starring Tupac Shakur, followed by The Program, Major League II and Higher Learning, directed by John Singleton.
He gained more fans with his role in Scream 2.
Epps recently completed filming for Breakfast of Champions, based on the novel by Kurt Vonnegut and starring Bruce Willis and Nolte. He is also among a group of young actors, including co-star Ribisi, featured on the cover of the April issue of Vanity Fair magazine.
But Epps hit it big with his role as Linc in the film The Mod Squad, a remake of the popular TV series that ran from 1968 to 1973. The film, co-starring Claire Danes and Giovanni Ribisi, remains true to the premise of the original series — three juvenile delinquents given a second chance by working with the police department — but with a '90s spin.
Q. How is your Line different from the 1970s version played by Clarence Williams III?
Epps: Clarence Williams 'Linc was an icon, and you really can't prepare for that; you're already stepping into a character. So all I could do is open him up, and that's exactly what I wanted him to do, just let him be a bit more colorful, maybe smile a bit more. But there weren't very many opportunities because he's written like he's a certain guy. And when I watch the old stuff, I just try and keep the nuances of the character, and just take the rest from there. Q. What drew you to wanting to do a movie of TV series?
Epps: It was a great idea, but what got me excited was once Claire and Giovanni were attached. The opportunity to work with them, that's what put it over the top. I respect their work, but it's just an interesting mix. We respected one another's differences, and we see eye to eye,
and we just naturally got along, and you don't get that often. When you get that, it's like 90 percent of your work is done by showing up on the set.
Q. What sparked your interest in acting?
Epps: It all spawned from writing,
because I was a writer since I was 8
— poetry, plays, screenplays, love letters, music, whatever. Being a writer, acting came from just trying to emote off of the paper, and once I found a stage, that was it.
4. How did you get involved with ran?
Epps: I've been doing music for like nine, 10 years. I'm starting an independent label called The Label. The name of my album is *The Birth*. My music is me. That's my passion. It's not someone else's words I'm delivering, there's not a director's version that's not edited, it's me. This is what I come home and do each day.

No.12 Bears score weekend sweep
By Matt Tait
sports@kansan.com
Kansas sportwriter
Sunday's finale was framed by two Baylor five-run innings and the weekend series was framed by Baylor dominance as the Kansas baseball team was swept in three games by the Bears this weekend.
After nearly winning game two, the Jayhawks, 10-22 overall and 4-14 in Big 12 play, came out Sunday and were beaten in nearly evenly of the game.
The pitching was shaky, as the Bears managed 14 runs on 15 hits and knocked three Javhawks from the game.
The hitting was spread out as the 'Hawks' mustered only seven bits the entire game.
And the defense, which had been solid, committed seven errors that led to six runs. The other eight Baylor runs were earned and the final score was 14-4.
The top of the first inning provided testament for how unprepared the Jayhawks were. Kansas pitcher Brian Schriner started the game and gave up five runs to Baylor in the first. Only three of the runs were earned, but the five run first put Baylor in control.
"That was just a young team not ready to play today," coach Bobby Randall said. "And it was my fault for not having them ready."
Schriner settled down over the next four innings, holding Bayton scoreless, and the Jayhawks scored three in the fifth, pulling the score to 5-3.
The Bears came out in the sixth and scored three, pushing the lead to five.
"The fifth inning was the best for Brian." Randall said. "We weren't going to send him out there in the sixth, but he threw so well in the fifth."
The fifth was the last time the 'Hawks were close. Baylor logged eight runs on eight hits during the last three innings to put the game away.
One bright spot for the Kansas offense was freshman Corey Harrington's two hits. Harrington, who was put in the lineup as
But Saturday's game was full of bright spots as the Jayhawks held the lead or were tied for most of the game before losing 4-3.
the designated hitter because of an injury to center fielder Jason Appuhn, delivered the two hits, scored a run and drove in another.
Catcher Shane Wedd provided most of the offense as he was 3 for 4 on the day with two home runs.
"I've been thinking about it a little bit, because hitting in the middle of the order it's my job to drive in runs, and I need to continue to do it," Wedd said.
Not to be outdone by Wedd, Baylor's Eric Nelson was 4 for 4 on the day with three
home runs, including the game-winner in the ninth.
Randall said he was pleased with the performance and said it was a tough game to lose.
"Nelson had a great day and Shane Wedd broke out for us — it was an interesting game," Randall said. "There were a lot of good things that happened today. The only bad thing was that we lost."
Friday's opener saw the most dominating performance of the series as Baylor starter/designated hitter Jason Jennings threw a complete game two-hit shut out and hit a two-run homer in the 9-0 victory.
Jennings struck out a career-high 14 batters and had only three men reach base.
"Out on the mound you get in a zone and a rhythm with your body," Jennings said. "I had some good stuff tonight, good defense behind me and anytime you get a conference win if feels good."
For the Hawks, Ryan Schmidt pitched six strong innings in which he gave up only three runs and four hits.
The Jayhawks will again be at home Wednesday as Southwest Missouri State comes to town for a doubleheader. Game one begins at 2 p.m.

Linebacker ready to return to action

Kansan sportswriter
Dariss Lomax was back doing what he loved to do Saturday afternoon, the third day of the Kansas football team's spring drills. With his feet planted in the Memorial Stadium turf and No. 51 jersey hugging his chiseled frame, he settled into a linebacker stance.

Lomax just smiled inside.
Donna just smiled innie.
Playing football is something Lomax savors even more now after sitting out all last season for academic reasons.
A few months ago, Lomax spent his Saturday afternoons trying to do anything but watch or listen to Kansas football games.
"It wasn't a thing where I didn't want to support my teammates. It's just that I love this game so much that it hurt to see my team out there losing," said Lomax of the Jayhawks, who had a 4-7 record last season. "They expected to have me out there helping them win games, so I really felt like I let them down."
Lomax arrived at Kansas in the fall of 1996 after gaining numerous accolades during his senior season at Washington High School in Kansas City, Kan. He was
named first-team all-state and also made the all-metro team after recording 122 tackles and five quarterback sacks.
His football prowess, though, far outweighed his study habits.
"They didn't prepare you for college where I went to school like they do at the schools in Olathe and Shawnee Mission." Lomax said. "So it was hard to make the adjustment to college classes coming from a situation like that."
Lomax admits that his dream of playing professional football clouded his priorities. But he insists he's a changed man.
"I learned a lot from having to sit out and not be a part of something I love. I learned that I needed to stop putting football in front of books, and take my classes more seriously," said Lomax, an African-American studies major.
Pole vaulter sets pace for track teams at Texas Relays

Two-time All-American sophmore Andrea Branson led the way for a slew of impressive individual performances for the Kansas men's and women's track teams at the Texas Relays last weekend.
Branson, who won the Big 12 Indoor title in the pole vault last February, set a new school, conference and meet record with a vault of 13.1/2. She qualified for the NCAA Championships in June in Boise, Idaho, where her family lives.
"A lot of the pressure is off," Branson said. "Now they can't turn me away from nationals, and I get to

Commentary
Greed helps destroy teams like Royals
So this is what it's come to.
I'm sitting around with some friends, talking about the upcoming Major League Baseball season. We're talking about how well the Yankees will do after adding Roger Clemens a year after winning 114 games. I'm talking about how the curse on my beloved Cubs reared its ugly head again with the season-ending injury to
Kerry Wood. So, to make myself feel better I make fun of Ryan, a die-hard Royals fan.

ports@kansan.com
It doesn't take a brain surgeon to think of ways to make fun of the Royals, so I won't get into that. But somehow, the Royals have managed to enter their season opener — 1:30 p.m. today at Kauffman Stadium — with a 99.9 a.p.
League-best 22-9 spring record But here's the kicker:
But here's the kicker.
"This guy in one of my classes," a friend began, "is a huge Royals fan, maybe as big as Ryan. Anyway, he's actually making T-shirts, 'Grapefruit League Champs.' On the back it'll say 'The Real Championship.'"
Ryan's eyes lit up, "I'll buy one!"
My first reaction: give me a break
But you can't really blame Ryan. First place in the Grapefruit League is about as good as it can get for the Royals, unless you really think that you can take away two of a horrible team's best hitters, put the franchise pitcher on the trading block and actually win.
While teams like the Rupert Murdoch-owned Los Angeles Dodgers can afford to blow more than $100 million on a 34-year-old pitcher like Kevin Brown, teams like the Royals spend the off-season dumping anyone making over minimum wage. Jeff Conine was set to be a fixture in the middle of the Kansas City lineup, but the penny-pinching Royals sent him and his multi-million dollar salary to Baltimore, where he likely will be the designated hitter against left-handed pitching.
The result is a loss of hope. In every other sport, you can seem to think of ways your favorite team can win the championship. I've been doing it every spring for my Cubs and every fall for my Golden State Warriors. Believe me, it often takes a lot of creativity.
But baseball seems to be doing everything it can to kill itself. It's the only major sport without a salary cap, so you have teams like the Royals competing against teams like the Yankees, who spend the Royals annual budget every homestand.
But not even a 22-9 run through the Grapefruit League is enough for a semirealistic Royals fan to think Johnny Damon — who swings and throws like my mother — can lead Kansas City through a 162-game season and into the playoffs.
Baseball is a great game. Say what you want about it being a bit slow, but there's nothing better than a summer night at the ballpark with a hot dog and some friends.
And that's why guys like Ryan get their kicks out of a Grapefruit League championship.
The poor get sketchy prospects, and Baltimore adds to its more than $80 million payroll to get a platoon hitter.
Hope is dead before the season is alive.
Hope is dead before the season is over. Because baseball is such a classic game, it will survive. But it will continue to wear a second-rate label in the eyes of many sports fans until there is competition and parity similar to what you find in the NFL, NBA or NHL.
But that day shows no sign of arriving soon. It seems everybody talks about a salary cap like they talk about spending that summer in Europe.
Until the owners do something more than a token luxury tax, Royals fans will settle for wearing their Grapefruit League championship shirts while their team loses more than 90 games.

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (April 5):
Travel and romance are your assignments this year, not necessarily in that order. Make big plans in April. You're lucky then. In May, if you're tight with your money, you'll discover more. In August, work out your agenda for the rest of the year and go hunting for treasure in November. December is for playing and learning new games. Take on new responsibilities in February. In March, practice your listening.
Aries (March 21-April 19): Today is a 9.
You've got a massive dose of spring fever today. You would just as soon chuck everything and take off for the woods. If you've got a job you care about, of course, that's not a very good idea. On the other hand, Thursday and Friday this week should be good for finding a new job.
Taurus (April 20-May 20): Today is a 5.
The urge to splurge is strong today, and you might be feeling resistant, just on general principles. If the deal is really good, go for it. An opportunity like this might not come again for quite some time. Don't let anybody push you into anything, however. You can tell the difference.
Gemini (May 21-June 21): Today is a 7.
Initial opposition leads to a team effort, which should prove to be successful. Looks like everything ends well, but perhaps not in the way you envisioned. Be open-minded and ready to move quickly.
Cancer (June 22-July 22): Today is a 5.
Your mind is quick and you've got good support from people who love you. But you're also up against a major adversary right now. This other person wants to order you around, and you're finding it hard to comply. If it's for your own good, maybe you should surrender instead. Trust one who's trustworthy.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Today is an 8.
Virao (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Today is a 5.
Something that looks very good for you could look kind of threatening to a person you care about. Even though you've pretty much made up your mind, consult this person for advice and heed the directive to be cautious. It will make you even more successful.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Today is a 5.
You could make a very good deal today, but take care. Although you might find a good bargain, this item may not be quite what you expected. Check it out carefully before you get home, so you'll know what, if anything, you'll need to fix.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Today is a 7.
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Today is a 5.
This day should be very interesting. Overcome your resistance to following another person's orders, and you could learn quite a lot. Learning how to play a new game could lead to having lots of new friends. Follow a strong leader and enjoy it.
You could experience a major transformation today in the way you view money. For example, you may generally think of yourself as a poor kid, but today realize you're fabulously wealthy, compared to somebody else. Satisfaction is a matter of viewpoint, so life, shift yours to a more comfortable position.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Today is an 8.
This ought to be a beautiful day for you, and it's also a good day to start new and better habits. Remember all those resolutions you made around the first of the year? Well, why not put them into effect right now, while you're in an excellent mood? For starters, rid of the stuff that causes stress.
Capricorn (Dec, 22-Jan, 19): Today is a 5.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Today is a 5.
There's a lot going on today, but you can keep a low profile. Figure out which way the wind is blowing before you decide how to set your sails. Is that too many metaphors for one paragraph? Just play it cautious until you see who's in control.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Today is a 7.
Your friends are the spark of your life and your inspiration today, so let them know how much you appreciate them. The people you love the most are the ones most likely to be taken for granted, except for today, of course. Go ahead and get emotional about it. They'll love it.
R
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Today is a 5.
2
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) Today is a D.
You can amass quite a fortune today and tomorrow if you play your cards right. You're lucky, of course, and that always helps, but today, skill is required too. Take only a very carefully calculated risk.

Hutchinson coach gets position at Vanderbilt
HUTCHINSON — Hutchinson Community College basketball coach Tim Jankovich has resigned and accepted a job as assistant coach at Vanderbilt University.
Jankovich resigned Thursday in order to take the job with newly hired Vanderbilt coach Kevin Stallins.
"It was sudden, to say the least," said Jankovich, who was hired at Hutchinson in July 1997. "The opportunity was such that I didn't feel I could pass on it."
Stallings was named Vanderbilt's coach Thursday. Jankovich said Stallings first called him late Wednesday. On Thursday, Jankovich accepted.
Jankovich, who was 50-14 in two years at Hutchinson, said he will leave for Nashville, Tenn. Friday to meet with Stallings and other Vanderbilt officials.
Jankovich played at Kansas State University from 1979-82. He was a three-year

Stallings was an assistant at Kansas while Jankovich was at Oklahoma State. They usually sow each other while recruiting the same players for their Big 12 schools.
"No one has asked for a release on Maurice," Belknap said. "If it occurs, the [other] institution will call and ask for his release. None has, and we don't give blanket releases."
Evans asked athletic director Bill Belknapth Thursday to start the process that would release him from his scholarship and enable Evans to transfer to another school.
By asking for a release, Evans is starting the steps that would allow him to transfer to another Division I school for his final two years of eligibility, though he would have to sit out next season.
Wichita State player waffles on intentions
Releases can be given only to specific schools as they inquire about Evans, a 6-foot-5 sophomore from Wichita. Belknap said Wichita State likely would block releases to certain schools.
"I don't think in this case it's appropriate because I think we have people tampering." Belknap said, refusing to name the schools or say how many would not receive permission to talk to Evans.
WICHITA — Just three weeks after saying he would return, Wichita State star Maurice Evans now says he wants to leave the Shockers basketball team.
Trouble started on Jan. 26, when Evans walked out of practice after a dispute with Coach Randy Smithson. He missed two games before the university compromised on changes in the program. The university has since publicly reprimanded Smithson and his coaching staff and disciplined them for violations of NCAA practice limitations.

But he has not taken part this week in the team's individual workouts, where players are allowed to receive individual and small-group instruction from coaches.
If a school gains a release from Wichita State, it can actively recruit Evans, who averaged 22.6 points last season. It can also give him a scholarship for next season, though he couldn't play.
A school without a release cannot actively recruit Evans, and if Evans transfers to that school anyway, he must pay his own way. By banning a release, Wichita State would be forced to hold Evans' scholarship and not give it to another player for one season.

Freshmen lead men's tennis to win
By Melinda Weaver
sports@kansan.com
Kansas sportswriter
Led by freshman Quentin Blakeney, who won his 10th straight match of the season, the Kansas men's tennis team defeated the Colorado Buffaloes 4-3.
Blakeney, 10-1 this spring at No. 5 and 6 singles, is the first Jayhawk to win 10 straight since Trent Tucker in 1998.
The No. 42 Jayhawks broke their two-game losing streak and improved their record to 10-3 after losing 5-2 to Oklahoma on Friday.
"We recovered well after one of the most pitiful performances of my career," coach Mark Riley said. "Oklahoma played well, but we didn't fight. Like I've been saying all season, if we play hard, we can beat anybody, but if
we don't, we can lose to anybody."
The team won its double points against Oklahoma and Colorado, ending a five-game streak of losses.
In collegiate tennis, the team that wins two of three doubles matches captures the doubles point.
"We played much better today than we did against Oklahoma," said team member Alex Barragan. "We played more motivated. After we play the doubles point, everyone plays more aggressive."
The three freshmen, Barragan, Blakeney and Rodrigo Echagaray, came through for the team against Colorado, winning all three of their matches to claim the victory.
The top half of the lineup, Luis Uribe and Kenny Powell, and Ed Dus dropped their matches for
the three losses.
"Our freshmen came through for us again today," Riley said. "Now we just have to get the seniors to play well and we will be ready to play."
Friday, the Jayhawks faced the Oklahoma Sooners in their first Big 12 Conference loss of the season.
Though the team won the doubles point, the normally solid singles play faltered. Blakeney was the only Jayhawk to come away with a singles win.
"We were unlucky in our matches," Echagaray said. "We had a chance to win, but we didn't take it."
A tough road lies ahead for Kansas as the Jayhawks prepare to play No. 6 Texas and No. 21 Texas A&M, two of the teams tied with Baylor for first in the Big 12.

Lomax learns from year off of football
Continued from page 1B
Kim Barger, who has worked closely with Lomax on his classwork during the last two years as the academic coordinator for football, says the potential negative situation Lomax faced has turned into a positive one.
"Something that he loves and really lives for was taken away from him because he didn't have clear priorities. But now it's really changed his whole outlook," Barger said. "He's always had a passion and a fire in his gut, but I think that having to sit out a year has made that much stronger.
"He's more intense about everything he does, whether it's typing a paper or talking about football. When I feel like he's having a tough week with exams and class, I always remind him, 'Just think how good it'll feel when you sack the K-State quarterback.' With all the work he's put into his studies, he's going to get more joy and satisfaction to go out there and do well on Saturday afternoons."
One person happy to have Lomax available on Saturday afternoons this fall is linebacker coach Mark Farley. The defense must replace all four of its starting linebackers from a year ago, and Lomax figures to be an integral part.
Out of all the linebackers, whether they be from the other schools or Ron Warners and the ones that have been here, he is as good athletically if not better than all of
them," Farley said of the 6-foot-2, 225-pound Lomax. Warner, who holds the school record for sacks in a season (14.5) and career (20.5), now plays for the New Orleans Saints.
Lomax has two years of eligibility remaining after redshirting his true freshman year, playing a limited role in 1997 and losing last season. And he now knows that to achieve success, he must maintain the focus that delivered him back to the game he was so comfortable playing Saturday afternoon.
I know the responsibilities that are resting on my shoulders, and I'm going to accept them like a man." Lomax said. "I'm going to be here five years, so in addition to trying to become a better football player, I am also going to leave with a degree.
"This whole thing made me realize that, while it's all business when I'm on the field, football is just a game. Now, I have my priorities straight, so I can gain from class and football. And I can't tell you how fun it is just to be back out there running around and hitting people and making plays."
Lomax pauses.
"Man, it feels good to be back."
Then grins.
KU football looks for followers
-Edited by Jon Campbell
If a football game was played and nobody was around to see it, did it really happen?
By Michael T. Rigg sports@kansan.com kansas sportwriter
The Kansas football team would prefer not to find out the answer to this question, as it is currently working with an advertising firm in hopes of raising ticket sales for the 1999 season. Kansas, with an average of 32,367 fans a game last season, ranked last in the Big 12 in attendance.
Eleventh-place Baylor drew more than 1,000 more fans a game than the Jayhwacks.
Rick Mullen, director of promotions, said he was determined to make attendance at KU games rise. Although still unsure about how the team will be promoted, Mullen has one goal that he is shooting for: "We want to increase attendance each year," Mullen said.
Even though five Big 12 schools saw their attendance numbers rise significantly, Kansas' total dropped by nearly 5,000 fans a game.
season ticket holders will have a chance to alter that number in the next few weeks. Season ticket renewal forms are due on Apr. 25, and season ticket renewal numbers will be released then, the ticket office said.
Mullen said he was counting on the Jayhawks' favorable schedule to get attendance to climb back up. Kansas will play seven home games at the 50,250-seat Memorial Stadium this season for only the fourth time in school history.
120
"We have a lot of home games this year, and a couple of night games, so that should help." Mullen said.
fourth time in school history
However, a home game-saturated schedule does not mean more support. Mullen identified the lack of students at the games as one of the problems.
"We really want to promote for the students this year," Mullen said.
Even with on-campus promotions due to start at the end of the semester, a good ad campaign does not always mean better attendance. The Jayhawks finished 4-7 last season.
"The reason I don't go to the games is because we're going to lose," said Williamette, III., sophomore Avi Mor, who purchased season tickets last year but only went to two games. "Why should I even waste my time to go and watch them lose? If they start playing better, then I'll go."
Mullen concedes that a winning
record will draw more fans than an aggressive marketing campaign ever will.
"Obviously, winning helps," said Mullen. "We haven't ever had continuous success."
Look for the renovations to Memorial Stadium to be a focal point of the promotions this season, Mullen said. The stadium is in the final stages of a $25 million improvement project, which includes a new press box and a state-of-the-art video board for next season.
"The entire scoreboard area will be much larger, which will heighten each fan's experience at the game," said Mullen. "Overall, it's a great stadium and a great place to play."
Spring Football Notes:
The Jayhawks strapped on the pads for the first time this spring on Saturday morning, heading out to Memorial Stadium for a more physical workout. Kansas returns to the practice fields this afternoon for the fourth practice this spring.
Michael Chandler, the wide receiver who was shot in the groin Feb. 27, has been playing a small role in spring practices. But it is not the groin injury that has hampered him. Chandler hurt his left ankle during the Kansas State game last fall and had surgery during the offseason to repair the ligament.

Brooke Chiller extended her winning streak to three with a win at second singles, 6-4, 6-2.
"I think I have a lot more confident with each match I win." Chiller said. "The wins have changed my attitude and helped me be more positive when I step onto the court."
Kansas also snapped several Nebraska singles players' winning streaks.
Cheryl Mallaiah ended Naiil Ijomah's eight-match streak at third singles and Lisa Malliaiah snapped Amy Frisch's 11-match winning streak at sixth singles.

For some, rowing is out of the blue
Differing backgrounds mark Kansas team

Senior Becky Valburg and freshman Stephanie Mahal came to the University of Kansas three years apart, but both had one thing in common. Neither had intentions of being a member of the rowing team.
But there they are, attending practices at dawn, participating in a sport that neither knew much about before they started.
"I had not planned on doing this," Valburg said. "I ran cross country and track in high school, but there was no future in it, so I gave up on sports when I came here. Then at (freshman) orientation, Rob saw me and asked me to come out for the team."
That was in the fall of 1995, the year when rowing made its collegiate debut at Kansas. Now, after football, the rowing team has the largest roster of any University sport at Kansas, with about 60 women.
Kansas, with about 20 women. Mahal had been a redshirt goalkeeper for the soccer team in the fall. When Kansas hired a new soccer coach, Mark Francis, Mahal said she was told that the likelihood of her playing was slim. Mahal had also played softball and basketball in high school, but she felt there was no need to walk-on those two teams.
"They offered to help me find another school to play soccer at, but I wanted to stay at Kansas," she said. "Softball and basketball have plenty of recruits, so why would they need someone to walk-on?
"I wanted something new in my life, to test the waters, and to see how it went," Mahal said.
and. Even though the rowing team is still young
at Kansas, rowing actually has been a part of the University since the late 1800s.
the university since Kansas river coach Rob Catloth said that rowing was not necessarily a foreign sport in the Midwest, as many people would believe, and that it is an appealing sport for many athletes.
athletes. "So far, it has been primarily a walk-on-sport for our team," he said. "A majority of the team were walk-ons. They are good athletes who may not have been good enough to play Division I volleyball or basketball, so this gives women an opportunity to still participate in a Division sport."
Catthout said that he expected his roster to expand next year to about 70.
Senior Stacie Frain is another member or the original freshman class of 1995. She said
"It is such a team sport," she said. "Everyone has to be in sync with each other. It is tough getting up at 6 a.m. for practice, but seeing the scenery at Clinton Lake at dawn is worth it. And despite injuries and fighting the pain, I look back, and it has become such a part of my life."
a part of my life.
Valburg agreed that there had been times when she was near the point of exhaustion during a race, but she knows that in a sport like rowing, if one team member quits during competition, the whole boat is finished.
"Eight others are giving it their all, so that is motivation to finish," she said.

Hawks win despite injuries, free throws
ATLANTA — Not much went right for the Atlanta Hawks Sunday, until the end of their game with the Charlotte Hornets.
The Hawks missed half of their 34 free throws and had leading scorer Steve Smith at the end of the bench, nursing a sprained left knee, alongside starting forward LaPhonso Ellis, who has not played since March 13 because of back spasms.
The Associated Press
But Grant Long's baseline jumper with 2.6 seconds left gave Atlanta an 85-83 victory over the Charlotte Hornets.
Coach Lenny Wilkens could only smile.
sime.
"We missed a ton of free throws," Wilkens said. "It's hard to believe we could miss that many. Without Steve and LaPhonso, it just takes too much offense out of our lineup, but the guys stepped up."
Mookie Blaylock was only 4-for-15 from the field, but the Atanta guard scored seven points late in the fourth quarter — including his 10,000th career point — and helped the Hawks beat the Hornets for the sixth straight time.
Though Blaylock finished with 14 points and Alan Henderson scored a game-high 18, the Hawks' starters were outscored 64-44. The big difference for Atlanta was the bench, which outscored Charlotte's subs 41-19 and outrebounded the Hornets 18-7.
Long, who contributed 10 points and seven rebounds, was particularly

pleased with his game-winning shot.
On the previous play, he was called for goaltending on a layup by Charlotte's Eddie Jones that tied the score at 83-83 with 16 seconds to play.
"It was a simple pick-and-roll," Long said of his 18-foot jumper. "Two defenders went with the ball, and Mookle made a tremendous pass to me in the corner. We got a lot of energy off the bench. We were struggling, obviously."
After Long's basket, Charlotte called timeout and set up a play for Jones. But after taking an in-bounds pass from Chucky Brown, Jones slipped as he shot a wide three-point attempt.
"The shot still looked good for a minute," said Jones, who finished with a team-high 16 points. "I got a good look at it."
Charlotte, which led by as much as eight in the third quarter, had 18 rebounds and 14 points from Derrick Coleman. Brown and Elden Campbell each added 14 points.
The teams meet again Monday night in Charlotte, where the Hornets have lost three straight.
Blaylock became the 216th player in NBA history to score 10,000 career points when his 19-foot jumper put the Hawks up 76-73 with 4.52 to play.
After hitting two free throws 12 seconds later for a five-point Atlanta lead, Blaylock nailed a three-point shot at 3:03, giving the Hawks an 81-77 advantage.
WE'VE GOT WHAT YOU WANT MONEY CHARISMA
"It was a good defensive game for us," said Blaylock, whose team leads the NBA in defense, allowing 84 points a game. "If you play defense, you win ball games. You don't always have to score a lot of points."

'Outmatched' Royals team will begin season today
The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Boston and Kansas City, which had the American League's highest winning percentages in spring training, open the season in spruced-up Kaufman Stadium Monday with only one team expected to keep up the pace.
It's not Kansas City. "Obviously, we're probably going to be out"
matched in the majority of the games we play talent-wise, name-wise and payroll-wise," said general manager Herk Robinson, whose surprising Royals, amid dire predictions of a fifth straight losing season, had a club record 22-9 spring mark.

Royals
achieve a lot of things that people don't expect it to."
"But I really believe this club has enough character that it's going to
The Royals, who lost their top starting pitcher and two top run producers from last year's 72-89 team, will open with promising rookies Carlos Beltran in center field and Carlos Febles at second base and a starting pitcher who expected to be working for another team by now.
Right-hander Kevin Appier's $5 million contract made him the subject of trade talk throughout the spring. But The Royals, unable to get a satisfactory offer for a 32-year-old coming off shoulder surgery, will have him make his seventh season-opening start Monday.
"To be honest with you, I didn't think I'd still be with this club on opening day," said Applier, who ranks among the club's top 10 in most pitching categories but was 1-2 in three September starts last year.
"But I'm here and I'm happy to make the most of it. Beyond that, I don't even want to think about all the trade stuff."
Boston, adjusting to the loss of slugging first baseman Mo Vaughn, strung together an 18-10 spring record that low-key manager Jimmy
Williams naturally was trying to play down.
"We're just trying to prepare ourselves for opening day," Williams said. "Our whole key going in was to get ready to compete heading into Kansas City."
Starting for the Red Sox, 92-70 last season, will be right-handed Pedro Martinez, whose 19 wins in 1998 were the most by a Boston starter since Roger Clemens won 21 in 1990.
Replacing Vaughn's .337 average, 40 home runs and 115 RBIs will be first baseman Mike Stanley, who hit 29 homers last season.
But shortstop Nomar Garciaparrara insists the Red Sox are past even thinking about the loss of Vaughn, who was also a vocal clubhouse leader.
"We go out there and we just play our game. We know who we've got," said Garciaparra. "We've been doing it through all of spring training and we go out there and continue it throughout the season."
Leading off the Red Sox will be second baseman Jose Offerman, who signed a four-year, $26 million free agent contract after hitting a career-high .315 with 45 stolen bases and a league-leading 13 triples last year for Kansas City.
"We've got a good team," said Garciaparra.
"For the most part, everybody's back. Our pitching staff's great. We'll go out there and see what we've got."
Other newcomers for the Red Sox include Jeff Frye, who will start at second base, and right fielder Trot Nixon.
For the 10th straight year, the Royals will open with a new left fielder. Johnny Damon has moved over from center to make way for Beltran and will bat leadoff.
"Pitching is going to be a factor because of the fewer homers we'll hit," said third baseman John Valentin.
And like many veterans, Damon got lost before Sunday's workout trying to find his way from the refurbished clubhouse to the field. With new dugouts, weight rooms and managers' offices and expensive new seating areas alongside the dugouts, the passageways beneath Kauffman Stadium have been almost completely reconfigured.
McGwire begins home run chase tonight
Now it's time to see if he can begin the way he did last year, when he hit an opening-day grand slam off Ramon Martinez in a 6-0 win over the Dodgers, the first of his record 70 home runs.
ST. LOUIS — Mark McGwire is back at 0
The Associated Press
"I'm sure no matter what I do this year, if I don't hit 70 someone will say I had an off year," McGwire said as the St. Louis Cardinals prepared for Monday night's opener against the Milwaukee Brewers.
St. Louis already has sold 2.5 million tickets — even a couple hundred season tickets in the prime home-run territory out in left — with fans anticipating more McGwire moon shots.
His career best 545-foot homer, the longest ever at Busch Stadium, slammed off a sign beyond the center-field backdrop that's now memorialized by a huge
band-aid. He homered in each of the first four games, tying Willie Mays' major-league record and eclipsed Roger Maris' old record of 61 with three weeks to snare.
This year, there's also the chase for 500. McGwire needs 43 homers to become the 16th player in major league history to reach that barrier.
ST LOUIS
CARDINALS
become the first player to hit 50 or more in four consecutive years.
If he hits only 50, some will be disappointed.
"That's still a very good number," he said.
McGwire's heroes last season enabled the Cardinals to draw 3.2 million fans even though they were 19 games back in
the NL. Central and finished 83-79.
Overall, the team does not figure to be much better. The No.1 starter is the often-injured Donovan Osborne, who has eight victories the last two seasons. Center fielder Ray Lankford, who hits cleanup behind McGwire, and shortstop Edgar Renteria still are recovering from injuries sustained last season.
Milwaukee starts rookie left-hander Rafael Roque, who allowed home runs No. 64 to both McGwire and Sammy Sosa.
Renteria, who had a knee injury, has a good shot of starting the opener. Lankford, who had knee surgery in November, likely will be placed on the 15-day disabled list.
"I think I learned something by facing both McGwire and Sosa last year, so I may do some things different," the Roque said. "I want to get on TV because I'm doing my job, not from giving up home runs."
U.S. tennis team moves to quarterfinals of Davis Cup
The Associated Press
BIRMINGHAM, England — Jim Courier used to play these types of important matches all of the time.
Courier, the former world No. 1, who has slipped to No. 54, moved the United States into the quarterfinals of the Davis Cup with a 6-4, 6-7 (7-3), 6-3, 1-6, 8-6 victory against Britain's Greg Rusesdki.
The United States, which won the first two matches in the best-of-five, survived a rally by Britain and set up a quarterfinals match against Australia at the Longwood Cricket Club in Boston in July.
Courrier, the No.1 player in parts of 1992
and 1993, started the U.S. victory on Friday with a five-set victory against Henman.
Courier blunted Rusledsk's serve with a well-organized game, setting up a quarterfinal match against Australia at the Longwood Cricket Club in Boston in July.
Tim Henneman and Rusedski won Saturday's doubles against Todd Martin and Alex O'Brien. Henman scored a 4-6, 7-5-6, 7-6 (7-4) victory over Martin in Sunday's first reverse singles to even the series for Britain, which was playing in the World Group for the first time since 1992.
The final set could have swung either
the first way but Courier never gave Rusedski a break point and he won on his first match point, with a powerful serve into the body that forced Rusedski to hit the ball into the net.

Courier led the celebrations after clinching victory. He called the other team members onto the court they hugged each other formed a circle

and bounced up and down as the Brits consoled each other.
Russedki, who foot-faulted 12 times during the 3-hour, 47-minute match, managed to lose his own serve in the opening game of the match, despite three aces, and that was the only break of the opening set.
The British left-hander squandered three
set points at 5-4 in the second and a fourth at 6-5 before winning it in a tie breaker on his fifth set point when Courier netted a forehand.
Courier edged ahead again when Rusedski double-faulted on break point in the fourth game of the third and won the set 6-3.
The University of Kansas School of Fine Arts Lied Center New Directions Series and Lawrence Memorial Hospital present a performance of
Rusedski won the first five games of the fourth set to force the decisive fifth set in front of 9,300 boisterous fans.
Hennan, who had been on court a total of 10 hours, 44 minutes during his three matches in three days, clinched his victory when Martin netted a backhand to the roaring delight of the crowd of 9,000.
"Three hours 17 minutes is a little bit short for me," said Henman, who had been involved in two five-setters.
Martin, who crushed Rusedski in three sets on Friday, appeared on the way to another quick victory when he took the first set and broke to lead 4-3 in the second.
But he was riled by a call at 30-15 in the next game. His backhand volley was called wide, and instead of 40-15 it was 30-30. He went on to lose his serve and, ultimately, the match.

Senate candidates volley campus issues
By Nadia Mustafa
nmustafa@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
About 250 students watched Student Senate candidates highlight the differences between their coalitions at a formal debate concerning campus issues last night.
Between intermittent jokes about Ryan Robertson, the debate's moderator and KU basketball senior guard, student body presidential and vice-presidential candidates fielded questions from state legislators and KU administrators.
The questions concerned a new campus recreation center, a zero-tolerance policy for hate crimes, minority student retention, the allocation of student fees, the representation of non-greek and off-campus students, tuition rates and contracts between the University of Kansas and corporations.
YOU coalition and Delta Force candidates disagreed about a $49 per semester student fee increase to fund a free-standing campus recreation center.
Korb Maxwell, YOU candidate for student body president, said that it
was unfortunate that the new recreation center had become a campaign issue because it was already on the ballot as something for the student body to decide. He said that his coalition had not taken a stance on the issue but that the recreation task force had a well-constructed plan backed by eight months of extensive research.
Seth Hoffman, Delta Force candidate for student body president, said that Delta Force did not support the task force's proposal.
task we propose.
"This has been an issue that has been dodged long enough," he said. "We should not stand around and dance around it all night. We have to stand up for what we believe in."
Kansas Sen. Anthony Hensley asked the candidates how they would represent students who were not part of the Greek system or those who lived off campus.
Mary Liu, Delta Force candidate for student body vice president, said that her coalition had worked on recruiting people who usually wouldn't be involved with Senate
membership of students who represented a wide variety of campus organizations, such as students who live in University housing. He said that YOU was not focused on the greek system.

Candidates from both coalitions showed their mutual support for student representation and input in the University's corporate contracts, campus safety and public transportation.
David Ambler, vice chancellor of student affairs, asked the candidates about the expulsion of students who
were convicted of committing hate crimes.
Maxwell said that although the policy seemed to be a good idea, he did not think the University had the right to automatically expel students.
right of abuse. "We have to have due process and protect the rights of students," he said.
Liu said that Delta Force would support a zero-tolerance policy.

Delta Force cleared of election violation
The elections commission decided in favor of Delta Force last night at a hearing about the coalition's alleged campaign abuse.
Delta Force was freed of charges that they had sought campaign advice from Jason Fitzell, 1998 KU graduate and former Delta Force president.
and former Delta P.C. pro-
Ben Walker and R.J. Woodring,
incumbent YOU candidates for Nunen-
maker senators, filed a complaint last
week that Delta Force was violating
the elections code by consulting a
non-student about its campaign.
Delta Force consistently denied the charges.
Walker said that he was upset and thought a more in depth investigation was necessary. He said that YOU's complaint was not politically-motivated.
Jennifer Watkins, elections commissioner, would not comment on the commission's decision or any potential punishments against Walker or Woodring.

KU professor ending City Commission work

A new season is about to begin on the Lawrence City Commission. As winter gives way to spring, three commissioners will step down, making room for three rookies.
"I think there is value in having new people and new ideas on the city commission." Nalbandian said. "I don't have as much patience for things as I did when I started, and I don't have as many new ideas as I used to."
One of the departing commissioners, John Nabandian, who has been on the commission for eight years and is a University of Kansas professor of public administration, said that it was time to add some fresh faces to the commission.
While sitting on the commission and completing a term as mayor in 1996, Nalbandian was a strong advocate for a 1 percent sales tax to pay for additional parks and recreation facilities in Lawrence. Although he said he regretted not accomplishing a Lawrence recrea-

He then went to work for the Central Intelligence Agency in Washington, D.C., before returning to USC, where he earned a doctorate in public administration. In 1976, Nalbandian started working for KU teaching public administration and government.
"I would like to be remembered as a commissioner who had a long-term view of the city and that I could get things done." he said.
"I wanted to be a city manager," Naldbandian said. "But I ended up coming out here because KU has such an excellent public administration program."
Nalbandian said there had been ups and downs during the course of his terms as a commissioner.

Kansan staff writer
LARAMIE, Wyo. - One of two men charged in the slaying of gay college student Matthew Shepard pleaded guilty yesterday and was sentenced to two consecutive life terms in prison.
Russell Henderson, 21, a high school dropout and roofer, pleaded guilty to felony murder and kidnapping charges, avoiding a trial and the possibility of the death penalty.
Authorities said Henderson and Aaron McKinney, 21, posed as homosexuals, lured Shepard out of a bar last October, kidnapped and pistol-whipped him and then left him tied to a fence in the cold. The 21-year-old University of Wyoming student died five days later
Henderson said he drove the truck and helped tie Shepard to the fence but blamed McKinney for the beating. He said he tried to stop the beating, but McKinney struck him when he spoke up.

"Matthew looked really bad, so I told (McKinney): 'Stop, he's had enough.' " Henderson said.

A man in a suit sits among the wreckage of a collapsed building. The roof has been destroyed, and there are debris scattered around him.
A tornado-like windstorm whipped through the heart of eastern Wichita yesterday morning during rush hour.
ing during rush hour.
Although the 7:33 a.m. storm brought winds of up to 75 miles per hour, uprooted trees, turned over cars and tore off roofs, the National Weather Service meteorologists didn't classify this spring storm system as a tornado. Instead, they called it a gustnado.
"Both are violently rotating columns of wind that touch the ground," said John Ogrern, warning coordination meteorologist for Wichita's National Weather Service.
Wichita's Nationals 4-2 formed on the front of a storm, or the gust, and a tornado formed on the undraft and arrives after the storm.
Ogrern said that because gustnados were difficult to detect, there were no warnings before yesterday's storm.

"Had it been an hour to an hour and a half later, we would have been looking at something really severe," he said.
Classes were canceled yesterday, but Lamp said school would resume today, despite minor damage to the school's main building, including shattered windows.
"There is nothing structural that will keep us from opening," he said.
The storm lasted no more than a few minutes, Ogrern said. The storm took a path 2 miles long and 50 to 100 yards wide. Other damage to
Wichita included snapped trees and gas leaks throughout the storm's path. A small shopping center's roof was also smashed in.

Ogrern said it was too early to estimate the monetary amount of damage the storm caused.
Forecasts are clear for Wichita and the Lawrence area for today and most of tomorrow.
Curtis Hall, the meteorology practicum adviser, said that residents of Lawrence should not worry about storms in the area.
"We are out of the woods as far as severe weather goes until late Wednesday or Thursday,"he said.

Student blames text for strange behavior
A KU Public Safety Officer found more than he expected while investigating reports of a naked man wandering around the campus Friday night.
The subject, a KU freshman, was found just north of Lot 19 on Irving Hill Road and was unresponsive to questions. The Public Safety Office said that the subject was walking around slowly and would not respond to the officer or to being handcuffed.
Suspecting a drug reaction, the officer had medical help called in and the subject was taken to Lawrence Memorial Hospital about midnight Saturday.
About two hours later, the student woke up and told officers how he might have ended up naked in the parking lot.
The Public Safety Office said that the student told police he had been in his apartment reading a religion textbook when he started staring at his big toe.
He said he then realized that all people have animals inside and are all worms. The Public Safety Office said that he thought he was a worm.
The student's roommate reported to police that the student had started acting strange Friday night. The roommate said the student had told him that he had found seven identical moles on his body that represented the seven deadly sins.
According to the Public Safety Office, the student became combative and had to be sedated and involuntarily admitted to a mental hospital.
A drug test was administered to the student at the hospital, but the results of the tests are not known.

Lawrence police car vandalized by student
A Haskell Indian Nations University student was arrested early yesterday
morning in connection with the vandalism of a Lawrence police squad car a day earlier.
the incident began at 12:44 a.m. Sunday in the street in front of Los Amigos Salon, 508 Locust St., when an officer left his car there while making a routine bar check, Lawrence police said.
When the officer returned to his car about 10 minutes later, he discovered that his radio antenna had been damaged and that the hood, passenger side and trunk had been scratched, police said.
Police said the student, 19, was suspected of vandalizing the car after interviewing the bar's employees, who said the student had become angry after having been refused service because he was a minor.
The employees also said that the student was seen walking in the direction of the car after he was refused service.
The student was contacted the next day and interviewed at a Haskell residence hall, where police arrested him shortly after midnight for criminal damage to property.
The damage to the car was $1,000.
Criminal damage more than $500 is a felony.
Threatening call leads to confrontation, arrest
A 22-year-old Haskell Indian Nations University student was arrested Sunday evening for threatening two Lawrence men outside of his house, Lawrence police said.
Police said the two victims, 27 year-old twins, had received a threatening call from the student shortly before 5 p.m.
"They got a call from the suspect," said Lawrence Police Sgt. George Wheeler. "He said, 'I have a bullet for you.'"
Wheeler said that upon hearing this, the victims left their home in the 400 block of Ohio and went to the student's home in the 400 block of West 18th Street.
The victims told police that the student then came out of the house armed and aimed a pistol at them.
"He had a pistol in one hand a knife in the other," Wheeler said.
The student was then arrested for aggravated assault and criminal threat, police said.
KU student arrested for window peeping
Police said the confrontation stemmed from prior arguments between the twins and the student.
A 27-year-old male KU student was arrested after police caught him looking through the window of a 22-year-old woman's home early yesterday morning.
The incident began when Lawrence

police received a call from the woman's neighbor.
"So, we watched him watch her for awhile," said Lawrence Police Sgt. George Wheeler.
Police then arrested the man, whose pants were unzipped, for window peeping at 12:03 yesterday morning. He was released at 2:45 a.m.
Police said the woman, who is also a KU student, hadn't known that she was being watched.
Lawrence Bus Company reported to police last weekend the theft of $8,000 during a five-month period.

Satirical handout targets dress in greek community
A handout, created to examine issues in a satirical manner, targeted the greek community in a publication first distributed March 30.
The handout, which depicted the dress of a fraternity and sorority member, was created by Steve Prince, Highland Park, Ill., senior, and University Daily Kansan advertising staff member.
Prince said that this issue of his publication was done in good humor. He said that in previous issues, he had applied satire to other topics such as alcoholism and anti-drug campaigns.
"This publication is in no way affiliated with the Kansan," Prince said. "It was done on my own time, and it was printed at Kinko's. The views presented are my own, not of anyone at the Kansan or on staff."
"The advertising staff of the Kansan has no control over the editorial content in the paper, and, therefore, those staff members are not governed by the editorial rules of the Kansan."
Ann Premer, McPherson senior and editor of the Kansan said Prince's views did not reflect those of the Kansan.
Prince's handout has been published about every two weeks since August.

City Commission to lose 18 years of experience
Continued from page 1A
"Like anything you do for eight years, there are going to be good times and bad times," Nalbandian said. "One difficult thing is the certainty that people have that they always think they are right, and if the commission does not go along with it, then they think there is a hidden agenda. It is hard after eight years...it sort of wears you down."
City Manager Mike Wilden said that Nalbandian was dedicated to his job as a city commissioner. Wilden has been the city manager for nine years, after working as the assistant city manager for 15 years.
working as a teacher.
"He was a delight to work with." Wildgen said. "He always looked at broad policy issues and was great at broadening the scope of looking at a project."
brominating Along with Nalbandian, commissioners Bonnie Augustine and Bob Moody have not sought re-election.
Mayor Marty Kennedy said he would remember Nalbandian as someone with a lot of professionalism.
"We are losing a combined 18 years on the commission," Wildgen said. "John had a lot of knowledge and feeling for the issues. He leaves behind a legacy that will be here for years."
"I will miss his desire to have the city commission function to meet the city's needs," Kennedy said. "He always encourages us all to get involved and work with not just the city government but the community as a whole."
Nalbandian, who lives on Riviera Court with his wife, Carol, said that he did not expect to seek positions in city government in the future because his strongest ability was as a teacher.
"This is not a career for me." Nalbandian said. "I am a full-time faculty member. That is what I do best."

Pride Week brings transgendered author to begin celebration
By Don Curry
dcurry@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
next week is Pride Week, seven days devoted to celebration of the gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender communities.
But there's nothing wrong with starting the celebration early, especially when an author like Kate Bornstein visits the KU campus.
"Pride Week doesn't officially start till next week, but we couldn't pass up on Kate Bornstein," said Christine Robinson, coordinator for Queers and Allies.
bornstein, author of the books "Gender Outlaw" and "Gender Workbook", has published numerous articles about gender issues, a subject she brings a unique perspective to as a woman who was formerly a man.
Bornstein will deliver a lecture at 1:30 p.m.
Friday at the Inge Theater in Murphy Hall.
She also will be having an informal chat with the public at 3:00 p.m. Thursday in 4020 Wescoe Hall.
Bornstein's play, Hidden: A Gender, is being
performed by the University Theater at 8 every night this week at the Inge Theater in Murphy Hall. Tickets are $4 for students and can be purchased at the Murphy Hall Box Office.
Charla Jenkins, director of public relations for the University Theater, said that the play addressed Bornstein's gender-altering surgery.
"It's about gender and how so much of our life is determined by gender and what happens if that changes," she said.
Don Rowland, LBGT liaison to the University of Kansas, said that Bornstein had visited last year and had proven to be a dynamic, exciting speaker.
Next week's Pride Week events will include presentation of the Ally Award Tuesday, presentation of the LGBT Community Leader Award Thursday, a race in drag across the Kansas Union plaza on Friday and the Pride March on Massachusetts Street Sunday.
"Pride Week is about a couple of things." Robinson said. "It's about education LesBiGay-Trans issues, and it's about celebrating our lives."

KU Senators petition for citywide bus system
By Nadia Mustafa

Students, administrators and city officials are seeking answers to questions about costs, student control and state restrictions regarding a possible citywide transportation system.
Student senators who are working on a joint public bus system between KU On Wheels and the City of Lawrence submitted their petition to the elections commission Friday. If the commission verifies the petition's 1,000 signatures, the proposal will be placed on the ballot for a student body referendum during Senate elections April 14 and 15.
Nicole Skalla, KU On Wheels transportation coordinator; Holly Krebs, holdover senator; and other senators are still gathering extra signatures to display student support for a cooperative effort among Senate, the administration, the city and the State Legisla
ture to coordinate a citywide transportation system.
Skalla said she was certain that despite concerns about costs, students would pass the referendum. She said she thought the administration still needed time to consider the proposal.
"We're asking for students to be open-minded," she said. "The main point is just to get the administration to realize that students want public transportation and want the administration to get involved. We need the ability to negotiate."
The estimated operating costs of a citywide transportation system would be about $3 million per year.
Skala said that KU On Wheels would be able to foot the University's portion of the bill within its existing $1.5 million budget, so student fees would not increase for two years. She predicted any possible increase after that would be minimal
Skalla said the city could request federal government funding for up to 80 percent of the system's capital and up to 50 percent of the operating costs. Also, she said, the Legislature would probably increase funding for transportation this year.
Skala said she would have to gauge support for a citywide transportation system among the new city commissioners after today's elections.
If students vote in favor of a citywide transportation system, the Integrated Transportation Task Force would encourage the City Commission to make it a budget priority.
"This is not something that's going to happen overnight," she said. "It will be a five-to 10-year process."
Skalla said that the system would be coordinated gradually, beginning with minor changes such as bus routes in small Lawrence communities that could link to KU On Wheels' routes.
Skalla said administrative support in lobbying the Legislature was key to altering a state statute that prevented
student fees from being used to fund programs that benefited non-students
— an obstacle that must be overcome before a joint bus system could be implemented.
Provost David Shulenberger said that although he did not oppose working with the city toward a citywide transportation system, it would be a very expensive venture.
"The city needs public transportation," he said. "But it's a question of who bears the cost. The University is not funded at all to bear the cost."
Mayor Marty Kennedy said he was glad the University was getting involved in the creation of a citywide transportation system.
"This has been a long time running," he said. "The University will be a major player in the transportation issues of the city. We need to do something to expand to serve both the student population and residents of Lawrence."

Student senators moving forward with anti-sweatshop apparel bill
The Student Rights committee is proposing a bill to Student Senate on Wednesday that would ask the administration to prohibit factories deemed "sweatshops" to manufacture collegiate apparel.
Because collegiate apparel is a lucrative business, passing this legislation would be a step in the right direction to voice disdain with the proliferation of sweatshops.
The American Council on Education, of which the University of Kansas and the Board of Regents are members, resolved to ask colleges and universities to halt the use of sweatshops to manufacture collegiate apparel.
The Council said that reputable factories should be inspected by outside
Senators proposing bill to forbid sweatshop corporations from selling collegiate apparel.
monitors to ensure that the civil rights of workers were protected. These rights include a safe and sanitary environment, no child labor, the end to a requirement that would force employees to work more than 48 hours per week or 12 hours per day, and allowing freedom of association and collective bargaining.
Seventeen other universities already have passed similar legislation, including schools such as Harvard, Princeton, Rutgers and Tufts universities. The University should
prove that it is of the same caliber and stand behind the bill as well. The board strongly encourages Student Senate to pass this legislation and asks the University administration to carry through with its objectives.
While combating sweatshops at the university level is certainly a commendable action, the enthusiasm should not stop with the passing of this bill. Senators, students and faculty behind the legislation also should apply the same standards when shopping outside of a university setting.
Hopefully the awareness raised through this legislation will spread outside the University and to shoppers at corporate chain stores in Lawrence and elsewhere.

Milosevic's promise should be tested
Yugoslav President Slobodan Milosevic offered NATO a deal March 30 that the United States and its allies quickly rejected. It wasn't the offer NATO had in mind when it decided to start air attacks in Serbia.
NATO should reconsider. This probably is the best offer it will get for a long while. In fact, it is the only possible way in sight to end the current conflict.
Milosevic said he would curb the ethnic cleansing under way in Kosovo and resume peace talks with Albanian separatists if NATO stopped the air attacks first.
NATO refused, instead wanting Milosevic to move his troops out of Kosovo and to agree to sign the peace deal before NATO would stop
Without objective, NATO needs to find end to air war.
the raids. NATO continues to step up its bombing efforts as more planes are shipped into the region almost daily.
Unfortunately, with the exception of Milosevic's offer, no end is in sight to the conflict. Rather, further escalation continues.
NATO has no definite military objective in Kosovo and therefore no definite point at which it can say it has accomplished its mission and end the war. A long war that could cost American lives and has showed no signs of halting the ethnic cleansing in Kosovo is in no one's interest.
That is precisely what will happen if NATO does not accept Milosevic's compromise. Milosevic has vowed to fight to the very end if his terms are not accepted.
Though it may not be what the United States was hoping for, Milosevic's proposal is a starting point. The United States needs to find a way out of the war without going back on its promise to resolve the Kosovo crisis.
Can Milosevic be trusted to keep his word? No one knows. But if he didn't, NATO always could resume the attacks. And if he did, a needless war could be prevented.
war could be prevented.
We should trust him for now. It may not be the ideal option, but it's the best one we have.

Hunger, homeless focus of Into the Streets Week
Perspective
Count to four. Every four seconds somewhere in the world someone dies from starvation, most of them being homeless. On average, every four seconds you take a
breath, that is fifteen breaths a minute, 900 breaths per hour, and 21,600 breaths in a day, or 21,600 hunger-related deaths.
Some might think that this astonishing statistic means little here in America, the richest country in the world in terms of food per person. But if one also realizes that 39 million Americans are below the poverty line and struggle to feed themselves every day, the situation becomes slightly more real.

sightly more read.
And when one takes into account that the city of Lawrence has an estimated 200 hundred homeless people and even more in need of frequent social services, the reality of the problem should hit even harder.
Homelessness is not an illness that needs to be eradicated, but it is a terrible symptom of a disease that can be prevented. As with any other social issue, there is not one " cure-all" answer to homelessness. President Clinton proved that when he restructured the welfare system. While that motivated some to improve their lives, it also has pulled the rug out from under those needy individuals who cannot help themselves. In the last five years, there has been a 40 percent increase in poverty of children younger than 18, and the number of these children who are homeless has doubled.
A homeless person is just like you and me. I realized the problem is a lot bigger than just the few individuals I met as I walked the streets. To sum up my experience in a few short sentences would do the Pluge little justice because I can easily say that it changed my life.
What can students do to help?
eyes. Nine KU students and I traveled to Kansas City and Wichita and voluntarily lived on the street for 48 hours relying totally on the social services available to the homeless. It made me aware of the many tragedies and many people who suffered.
Well, many students already have been working to understand the problem. Last November the Center for Community Outreach co-sponored Hunger and Homelessness Awareness month, which consisted of a variety of events One in particular — Urban Plunge — opened my eyes.
In that same spirit of compassion, students are coming together again to help the homeless. This week is Into the Streets Week. It is an opportunity for those who truly care to alleviate the suffering of those who are hungry and homeless in Lawrence. Two of the dozen activities planned for the week will focus on hunger and homelessness.

I encourage you all to be proactive and attend the Empty Bowls Soup Luncheon today from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. in front of Stauffer-Flint Hall and the Homeless Sleep Out on April 9 from 8 p.m. to 7 a.m. at Burcham Park. Both events will benefit local food pantries and social services. For more information, please call CCO at 864-4073 or write me at csnyder@eagle.co.ukans.edu.

Women need protection from worldwide abuses
An affidavit taken from the Department of Justice's 1995 investigation into sexual abuse in Arizona prisons illustrates the impact of human rights abuses
extent and amount of hin which take place against women in United States prisons.

Guest columnist
The affidavit describes an officer entering a shower area and forcing a female inmate to have sexual intercourse. In exchange for not receiving disciplinary write-ups, the prisoner also was forced to perform oral sex at least five times on an officer.

use unintended actions." "Despite their long struggle for human rights, women continue to suffer from second-class status both in their own countries and at the United Nations," says Amnesty International. "The U.N. sometimes uses sexist human rights language and does not consistently include gender perspective in human rights reporting and gender expertise in field visits and operations."
in theory, women never have been excluded from the United Nation's concept of human rights. The 1945 U.N. Charter recognizes the equal rights of men and women, and this principle has been maintained in the United National's formulations of human rights ever since. However, several factors have prevented women from enjoying the promises made to them.
The concept of human rights assumes that all humanity shares a common experience and common needs. It therefore excludes women's needs for specific rights, or the specific application of human rights, to take account of women's biological differences, and the discrimination they may face in society.
It is estimated that more than 80 percent of war casualties are now civilians — many of them women. The overwhelming majority of refugees and displaced people are women and children. There is little "common experience" between an armed male soldier and the millions of women who have been massacred, wounded, or raped in Afghanistan, Colombia, Congo, Rwanda, Turkey and elsewhere in recent years.
The history of international treaties that some progress has been made in recognizing the full range of women's rights. The most recent of these treaties, adopted in 1979 hv the
U. N. General Assembly, is the Convention of the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women (CEDAW), which addresses a wide range of issues specifically affecting women.
In October of 1998, Amnesty International began its year-long campaign focusing on human rights abuses in the United States. A portion of this campaign is aimed at ending human rights abuses against women — particularly prison abuses — and ratifying international human rights treaties in the United States, such as CEDAW. Some of the violations that are routinely reported to happen in U.S. prisons and that are seen as forms of cruel, inhuman, and degrading treatment by Amnesty International include:
Browning is a Overland Park sophomore in political science and is the president of the KU/Lawrence chapter of Amnesty International.
This document also is important because it allows women, who have been discriminated against or abused, to battle for their rights in court with this convention as a legal basis for their struggle. Despite the achievements of the U.S. women's movement, the United States continually violates some of the rights protected in these treaties, and the United States is unfortunately one of only a handful of countries that have not ratified CEDAW.

Many women are targeted because they are political activists, community organizers, or persist in demanding their rights or those of their relatives.

Music reviews ignore local scene

It's especially nice to notice that the Kansan has discovered local music this year. I had started to worry, with not a single review of a local concert, save the KJHK Can Jazz show, all semester long. I know it's not that hard to get
people to review shows. I work for an online magazine, and among the three of us that work there, we manage to get five or six shows a month reviewed. I assume that the Kansan, with its larger staff, wouldn't have any problem getting out to at least one a month. Oh well, it's a nice start anyway.

AIDS events scheduled
AIDS project observes 10th anniversary with fund-raisers, speakers
By T.J. Johnson
fjohnson@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
The Douglas County AIDS Project is commemorating its 10th anniversary with observances during AIDS Awareness Month.
Events including speakers, fundraising dinners and benefit walks are planned throughout April to commemorate the event.
"We've got a lot of events planned, more than we have ever had in April," said Alan Carr, chairman of the DCAP Events Committee. "Nearly every day we have something going on."
Carr said that the month was not a celebration, but it was a milestone and a time for reflection on what DCAP had been working on for the past decade.
"We had hoped that we wouldn't be here in 10 years, and so we're really not celebrating." Carr said. "We're recognizing that we've been here for 10 years."
Sidney Hardgrave, executive director of DCAP, said that the anniversary was a special time to look back on the growth of the organization and its services to Douglas County.
DCAP works on a two-fold mission in the community. Carr said.
It provides services for people living with HIV and AIDS and education to raise AIDS awareness.
Among the events scheduled is DCAP's annual Walk for Health, the organization's largest fundraising event. It will begin at 10 a.m. April 17 at the South Park Gazebo.
"Our run for health is kind of our anchor." Carr said.
The Panhellenic Association and Interfraternity Council at KU also will sponsor a fund-raising dinner April 14 at the social hall in St. Lawrence Catholic Center, 1631 Crescent Road.
At least two speakers are scheduled to talk about HIV/AIDS-related issues during the month.
marva Miller, an HIV positive woman, will speak at 7 p.m. tomorrow at the Kansas Union. Miller formed Women on a Mission, a group designed to educate women about AIDS prevention.
"She's just a very dynamic woman," Carr said.
Jane Fowler, a journalist who once worked for The Kansas City Star, will talk about her experiences founding the group National Association on HIV Over Fifty. Fowler, who formed the group after becoming infected with HIV at age of 50, has spoken at events internationally, Carr said.
Carr and Hardgrave both said that AIDS Awareness Month was a good time to work with other groups in the community to raise awareness of AIDS and support for DCAP.

Group puts ethical code in action
By Allan Davis
Special to the Kansan
Social Work Students Concerned About Retaining Ethics seeks to educate social work students about the National Association of Social Workers Code of Ethics.
KU social work students are practicing the code of their future profession through a student organization that works for social justice in Lawrence.
"The basic purpose of it is to be a voice for social justice and the social work code of ethics," said Melinda Carden, Lenexa senior and co-facilitator of the group.
Members of the group are particl
patting in the Center for Community Outreach's Into the Streets Week, which began yesterday and continues until April 11.
"Into the Streets Week is a week of community service opportunities designed to get a diverse group of students involved in our community," said Christina Harms, Wichita sophomore and Into the Streets Week project coordinator. "The mission of this week is not only to make a positive impact on our community for this one week but to inspire students to do service in the future as well."
Social workers' code of ethics encourages them to be socially and politically active.
"In October, we had a political forum," Carden said. "We had state legislators come and speak about issues that were important to social workers, like foster care reform, tax cuts that were aimed at low-income individuals, social work licensor — different issues that pertain to social workers — and then we also talked about a social worker's responsibility to be politically active."
The social welfare student group will hold its final meeting this semester at 7 p.m. April 19 at the Kansas Union. The meeting will hold a discussion about the future of social work and the welcoming of new leaders for the group.

Better weather clears way for continued airstrikes throughout Yugoslavia
The Associated Press
BELGRADE, Yugoslavia — Aided by clearing skies, NATO struck fuel depots, bridges and army barracks throughout Yugoslavia yesterday and said it was taking particular aim at Serbian ground forces accused of terrorizing ethnic Albanians in Kosovo.
mass in Ruslav Yugoslav President Slobodan Milosevic brushed off the continued barrage, defiantly promising to rebuild the bombdamaged structures and denouncing NATO "aggressors" and "criminals."
As night fell, air raid sirens sounded again in Belgrade, likely heralding the 14th straight night of NATO bombardments. Two strong detonations were heard late yesterday in the northern city of Novi Sad, Tanjug said.
President Clinton promised an undiminished, unceasing and unrelenting air
campaign, saying it would no longer be enough for Milosevic to just stop the killing.
"A Kosovo denied its freedom and devoid of its people is not acceptable," he said. "Our plan is to persist until we prevail."
van. The 13th day of NATO airstrikes aimed to cut the Yugoslav military's lines of supply and transport — roads, bridges, airports, fuel depots and command centers.
Serb media said a bridge connecting Kosovo with the neighboring republic of Montenegro took a direct hit and that the Yugoslav air force command building in a Belgrade suburb was targeted.
The better weather was little comfort for the tens of thousands of refugees who continued to pour out of Kosovo in an exodus not seen in Europe for a half-century. The U.N. refugee agency said the number of ethnic Albanians reaching neighborhig states had reached nearly 400,000.
Conditions remained dire at a makeshift refugee camp at Blace, Macedonia, on the border with Kosovo, where
thousands were living in shelters of plastic and blankets in a muddy, fetid no man's land.
"There are too many people in that small concentrated area for safety and also for sanitation and health concerns," said Chris Thomas of the American Red Cross.
The human tide has overwhelmed Albania, Macedonia and Montenegro. As of yesterday, 239,000 refugees had arrived in Albania, 120,000

in Macedonia and 35,000 in Montenegro, the U.N. High Commissioner for Refugees said.
At least 831,000 of the 2 million prewar Kosovo population have been driven from their homes since the conflict began in February 1998, NATO spokesman Jamie Shea said.
NATO said relief flights carrying 200
tons of food and other emergency supplies were scheduled into Albania and Macedonia.
There was growing debate about plans for NATO nations including the United States to temporarily take in tens of thousands of the refugees.
Albania, despite its own impoverishment, said yesterday it would not ask others to take in the refugees who have arrived there because dispersing them outside the region would only help further Milosevic's aims.
in whose use. In Brussels, Belgium, NATO Air Commodore David Wilby said the alliance would take advantage of better weather in Kosovo to accelerate its attacks on the Serb and Yugoslav police, tanks and soldiers accused of systematically expelling ethnic Albanians from Kosovo.
"We will focus our attention on fielded forces in Kosovo," Wilby said. "We will disrupt Serbian military operations on the ground."
Wilby said NATO JETs striking at Serb forces in Kosovo during predawn raids yesterday drew heavy anti-aircraft fire, but all planes returned safely.
Mafia leader pleads guilty follows father to prison
The Associated Press
WHITE PLAINS, N.Y. — John A. "Junior" Gotti, the son and alleged successor of America's best-known Mafioso, pleaded guilty yesterday to racketeering, bribery, extortion and other charges in exchange for a prison term of up to seven years.
The plea was entered the day before jury selection was to begin in his federal trial. If convicted, he could have been sentenced to 20 years in prison and fined millions of dollars.
Gotti was charged with taking part in a criminal enterprise known as the Gambino family and extortion, robbery, loasharking, gambling and bribery. Many of the charges stemmed from an alleged extortion scheme at the Manhattan, N.Y., toppless club Scores.
He admitted bribing a union official, conspiring with others to commit extortion, supervising illegal gambling activities and filing a false income tax return.
Gotti entered the plea after learning that
federal prosecutors in Brooklyn had planned to indict him on income tax and loansharking charges, said defense attorney Gerald Shargel.
hey Get an charge!
"The government was putting Mr. Gotti in a position where he had no choice," Shargel said. He said Gotti pleaded guilty to bring "finality and closure" to the prosecutions. Among the charges he pleaded guilty to were the new loansharking charges.
Though the younger Gotti was accused of succeeding his father, John J. Gotti, at the top of the Gambino crime family after the elder Gotti was sent to prison for life in 1992.
In the entire federal indictment against "Junior," there was no mention of murder. No cement shoes, no sleeping with the fishes, no kiss on the lips followed by a bullet to the head. There wasn't even any leg-breaking.
So many Mafia leaders are in prison and so many mobsters are willing to cooperate that it's difficult now to carry out "the kind of blatant criminal activity people associate with organized crime," Goldstock said.
Court rules on car searches
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Passengers' personal belongings are fair game when police officers search a car for criminal evidence against the driver, the Supreme Court ruled yesterday.
Court had yesterday.
The 6-3 decision reinstated a Wyoming drug conviction and expanded the already considerable police power to stop and search vehicles without a court warrant. Police officials praised the ruling, but defense lawyers condemned it.
Officers must be free of unreasonable, confusing and unworkable restrictions on what may be searched," said Robert Scully of the National Association of Police Organizations.
Andrew Fine of the Legal Aid Society in New York said the ruling wrongly introduced an element of guilt by association.
The Constitution's Fourth Amendment, which protects against unreasonable police searches and seizures, generally requires police to obtain court warrants.
In a key 1996 ruling, the justices said police could stop motorists for routine traffic violations such as a faulty brake light even if the officers really wanted to search for illegal drugs. Yesterday's ruling means officers who participate in such stops can search all containers in the car if something gives them reason to believe they will find drugs.
The court's latest ruling on privacy rights stems from a routine traffic stop.
A car driven by David Young was stopped for speeding on Interstate 25 in Natrona County, Wyo., in the early morning hours of July 23, 1995. After a Highway Patrol officer saw a hypodermic syringe in Young's pocket, Young acknowledged that he had used it to take drugs.
During the ensuing search, two other officers asked the car's two female passengers to get out of the car. One of them, Sandra Houghton, left her purse on the car. Inside it, police found drug paraphernalia and liquid methamphetamine.
The Wyoming Supreme Court threw out her conviction last year, ruling that police were justified only in searching the car for drugs Young may have had with him.
She was convicted on a felony charge but appealed.
Writing for the nation's highest court, Justice Antonin Scalia said the Wyoming court was wrong.
Libya releases bomb suspects after 11 years
The Associated Press
THE HAGUE, Netherlands — Clearing the way for a trial after years of defiance, Libya yesterday handed over two suspects in the 1988 bombing of a Pan Am jet over Lockerbie, Scotland. Their arrival in the Netherlands triggered suspension of sanctions that isolated Libya from the West.
The surrender of alleged former intelligence agents Abdel Basset Al al-Megrahi and Lamen Khalifa Fhlimah means the two men can be tried — under a complicated deal worked out in years of talks — in the Netherlands under Scottish law on charges of planting the suitcase bomb that blew up Pan Am Flight 103.
The Dec. 21, 1988, bombing killed 270 people — 189 Americans — and prompted the United Nations to impose sanctions on Libya in 1992 and 1993.
The sanctions, including bans on international air travel and sales of weapons and oil industry equipment, were suspended yesterday after U.N. Secretary-General Kofi Annan sent a letter to the Security Council saving the suspects had arrived in the Netherlands.
The suspects surrendered after intense lobbying by South African President Nelson Mandela and Saudi Arabian and U.N. officials. Libya promised last month to turn over the men by today.
Accompanied by U.N. legal chief Hans Corell, who witnessed the handover in the Libyan capital, Tripoli, the pair arrived at the Valkenburg military airport near The Hague.
near The Hague. The two Libyans swiftly were extradited to British custody in the Netherlands and were to be held last night at Camp Zeist, a deserted U.S. air base 30 miles southeast of Amsterdam, Dutch Justice Ministry spokesman Victor Holtus said.
The Libyans' trial will be held at Camp Zeist. The base was under heavy security yesterday, with more than 100 Scottish police patrolling the grounds, some with attack does.
The suspects will be arraigned this week on charges of murder, conspiracy to commit murder and violations of international aviation laws.
Under Scottish law, their trial should start 110 days after their extradition and arraignment.
Some relatives of those killed in the bombing expressed concern that the trial of the two Libyans would fail to point to the person they believe is responsible for the crash — Mammar Gadhaf.
"If trying these two is the ultimate goal of this trial, then it's a travesty," said George Williams, president of Victims of Pan Am Flight 103, which represents 160 American families who lost relatives in the crash.
Before leaving Tripoli, the two suspects said they hoped to return to their families after being found not guilty.

Team prepares for Notre Dame
By Michael T. Rigg
sports@kansan.com
Kansas sportwriter
With 11 spring practices to go and almost a month of drills before their season starts in the fall, members of the Kansas football team are looking for a light at the end of the tunnel to get them through the monotony of everyday workouts.
This season, that light is the glow of a Golden Dome.
Spring workouts have received a lift this year from excitement about plans for Notre Dame (home of the Golden Dome) to open the Jayhawk schedule on Aug. 28.
It's just more motivation for us to work harder and stay here over the whole summer and keep getting better and better every day," running back David Winbush said. "That's what I came here for, a big game like that. A
dynasty like Notre Dame, it's the name right there that speaks for itself."
The game has high stakes. Kansas will receive at least $600,000 for playing, but the addition of the game against the Irish means the Jayhawks will need seven victories to be eligible for a bowl game.
Also, a lopsided loss to the Irish could set a bad tone for the entire season. In Kansas' last preseason game in 1993, the Jayhawks were clobbered by Florida State 42-0 and stumbled to a disappointing 5-7 mark.
"Obviously that could happen," coach Terry Allen said. "But we'll roll the dice. The timing is just too good of a situation."
Allen said he consulted others in the program before making the tough decision to play the game.
"Personally, I think the game is a great opportunity for us," Allen said. "When I was contacted about the Notre
Dame game, I went to two groups. I went to our seniors, and I went to the rest of the coaching staff and looked for a show of hands as far as the guys who wanted to play the game.
He said that even though the team
members knew that playing Notre Dame could jeopardize their chance of playing in a bowl game, everyone

raised their hands and wanted to play. Quarterback Zac Wegner was one of the players that Allen sought for advice.
"I thought, Notre Dame, that's something you tell your kids about 20 years down the road," Wegner said. "The opportunity to go up there and play the
first college game of the year at Notre Dame — how fun is that?"
The matchup also will give the Jayhawks another week of two-a-day practices in the fall.
"We were very limited before the
addition of the game because our school starts so early," Allen said.
With all the attention and motivation the game has generated, Allen is keeping the door open for more games like Notre Dame to appear on the Kansas schedule in the future.

Kansas gets unexpected day off practice

tomorrow, the Jayhawks will begin a series of three practices in as many days.
Instead of the usual outdoor drills, coach Terry Allen and the rest of the Jayhawks took shelter indoors for a series of meetings. The unplanned day off the field meant an extra day of fun for the team after the Easter weekend.
Kansas was originally scheduled to have today off.
The unplanned break translated into a tedious practice schedule. Beginning

"He needs to completely change his thought process," Klinker said. "He's struggling because he doesn't know what to do."
Klinker said that there was no way Coleman could work his way into the starting lineup in time for the spring game on April 24.
Punter Joey Pelifano, the 6-foot-1-inch, 205 pound
punter, continues to work out without the competition from incumbent starter Matt Tyler.
Tyler, who averaged 37.1 yards per punt last season, had surgery after the season to repair a torn ACL and won't be able to participate in spring drills. Pelfanio is a newcomer to the team after transferring from junior college and will challenge Tyler for the top spot in the fall.

Being coach of the Kansas football team means multiple duties for Allen, as he tries to fit speaking engagements into his already overloaded schedule.
On top of speaking at many alumni and service club functions, Allen frequently travels to the residence halls to have question-and-answer sessions with KU students. He will talk with residents at 7 p.m. tomorrow on the fourth floor of Templin Hall.
"Even though I enjoy speaking at the other functions, I really enjoy speaking to the
students." Allen said.
Allen said he had multiple reasons for choosing to fill his schedule with residence hall commitments, including the publicity that the talks generate for the team.
"It really promotes our program in such a positive manner." Allen said.
Allen has a tough job promoting the team, which hasn't had a winning season since 1995, but the lack of a winning record hasn't hampered enthusiasm for Allen's events.
"If you're not excited about Kansas football, then you're never going to care when you're an alum," said Ashford Galbreath, Templin resident and Troy, Mich., freshman. "It gives us a personal tie to Kansas football."
Chris Hund, resident assistant and Topeka senior, was in charge of organizing the event.
"It was great of him to come up here and speak," Hund said. "He's very supportive and comical."

The Kansas women's soccer team found the best buy available in its search for a goalie coach.
Kelly Miller joined the Kansas staff in mid-February as a volunteer coach.
"I just love the sport," Miller said. "Coaching wise, I have done quite a bit of instructional, not all the time, but I enjoy instructing quite a bit."
Francis said he also had been pleased with Miller's efforts and influence in practice.
Coach Mark Francis said he was very pleased to welcome Miller to his staff.
"He's very positive," Francis said. "With the goalie position you're going to give up goals, so he's always reinforcing them and encouraging the girls. Hopefully his enthusiasm will rub off on them."
"I found Kelly through coach (Ellen) Obleman. We had a few people come out and work with the goalies. He did an absolutely great job relating information to the keepers." Francis said.
Francis' area of speciality is on play in the field, so he said he was thankful for Miller's services for that reason as well.
"It's such a specialized position, so he's going to be aware of the things that need to be done, specifically for the keepers, and relate to me," Franco
said.
Miller, a Lawrence native, has played soccer since age 6 and is active as a player on a local club team. This playing experience helps Miller relate with his players.
"The coaches who have been here before have fortunately been really great so they've had an extremely solid
foundation to work with," Miller said. "We've had some similar experiences, so working with them I've hopefully been able to fine tune a little bit of their game."
This fine tuning has involved much technique work as well as individual sessions with each goalie. Miller also plans to add a fitness mode to the training this summer.
"I think he's real committed. He makes us work hard. He does a real good job — especially for not being paid," said Katie Garrity, sophomore goalie. "He takes a lot of extra time off work too. He's a real good coach."
When not on the field coaching,
Miller spends a majority of his time
ager of Oxbow Bronze Art Foundry. His work there involves building, renovating and metal working.
His heart lies in

they're getting hard better and much more comfortable. I've been really pleased with these keepers so far." Miller said.
He has a positive outlook for the fall as well and believes his goalkeepers are going to be prepared for any shots that might come their way.
"We're going to have a game winning keeper," Miller said. "Sometimes in the fall we'll have someone back in the goal who is going to be making a difference."

I am studying extremely hard for Friday's exam and expect it to go well, but I don't want to take any chances.
Instead of sending me nasty letters, write to my anthropology teacher and tell him how important it is that I get that C so that I can walk down the Hill and be gone.
Otherwise, I will be back next semester.
My professor can be e-mailed at mielke@kuhub.cc.ukans.edu and be nicer to him than you are to me. He's a good guy.
In the meantime, let me provide some of the comments that I have received from some readers who don't always enjoy my commentary. I have left off the names of the senders because some don't tell me who they are, and I don't want to expose the others. I don't think I could handle the nasty letters.
E-Mail: "Are you out to get Lester Earl or what? I have never seen you write anything nice about him. Why did you even come to KU if all you are going to do is bash our basketball players?"
My Response: I came to the University of Kansas because they had open admission policies.
E-mail: "Is your brain in your a#s?"
Response; Um... I hope not.
E-mail: "There comes a time when people just get fed up with writers in the UDK, and I am officially fed up with you. You need to graduate and get on with your life so that we don't have to pick the Kansan up every day, wondering if we are going to have to read your crap one more time."
Response: So, you admit it! You read me.

Trust me, it isn't nice.
E-mail: "Do you look as funny in real life as you do in your mug shot?"

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20); Today is a 5.

Vikings sign George as backup quarterback
EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. — The Minnesota Vikings yesterday reached a contract agreement with veteran Jeff George, who will be a backup to quarterback Randall Cunningham.
Terms were not disclosed. However, reports in the Star Tribune of Min-
neapools and the Saint Paul Pioneer Press indicated George would receive $400,000 under a one-year contract.
"Signing Jeff George is a big plus for our Viking program," coach Dennis Green said. "Jeff is a very talented quarterback with a competitive mentality. He has proved that he has the physical tools and the right mental makeup to be successful in the NFL."
In 1996, George got into a sideline shouting match with Atlanta coach June Jones on national television. That prompted the Falcons to release him.
He led the AFC in passing in 1997, but he did not play well last season, and the Raiders opted out of his contract during the offseason. He earned about $5 million the past two seasons as a starter with the Raiders.

The Vikings are his four team since joining the NFL as a top pick in the 1990 draft. George also played for Oakland, Indiana and Atlanta.
DURHAM, N.C. — Duke coach Mike Krzeyzewski underwent successful hip-replacement surgery and should be released from the hospital within five days.
Dr. T. Parker Vail, an orthopedic surgeon at Duke University Hospital who performed the surgery, said the 52-year-old Krzyzewski should be walking on crutches in the next couple days.
HILTON HEAD ISLAND, S.C. — Top-ranked Martina Hingis won the Family Circle Cup, beating Anna Kournikova 6-4, 6-3. It was Hingis' second Family Circle title and 22nd WTA championship. Kournikova is still searching for her first tour title.

Elsewhere in Davis Cup play, defending champion Sweden lost to Slovakia, meaning both of last year's finalists have been eliminated. Italy was ousted by Switzerland on Saturday. Russia rebounded from a 2-1 deficit in Frankfurt and beat Germany 3-2 behind singles victories by Yevgeny Kafelnikov, against Tommy Haas, and Marat Safin, against Nicolas Kiefer.
The Belgians rallied past the Czech Republic 3-2 and will play the Swiss next; Brazil downed Spain 3-2; France ousted the Netherlands 4-1; Australia beat Zimbabwe 4-1.
BIRMINGHAM, England — Jim Courier, the former world No. 1 who has slipped to No. 54, moved the United States into the quarterfinals of the Davis Cup with a 6-4, 6-7 (7-3), 6-3, 1-6, 8-6 victory against Britain's Greg Rusedski. The United States will play Australia in the quarterfinals in July.

BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. — It hasn't managed any music yet, but Magic Johnson's new music management company already has hit a sour note.
Boyz II Men to remain with current manager
Last week, the former NBA star announced his new venture, Magic Johnson Music Management, saying it would represent the soul RB group Bovz II Men.
But Nathan Morris, a founder of the Grammy-winning group from Philadelphia, said Boyz II Men had not and would not be signing a management deal with Magic Johnson Management.
The band was sticking with the manager it had — Quadree El-Amin of Southwown Entertainment. Morris said.
The original news release said El-Amin was joining the MJM staff.
Ballpark dealership ad competes with owner
CINGINATI — Call it a sign of the times.
The most intriguing addition to Cinero Field on opening day was a red and yellow ad on the outfield wall. There, in big letters in right field, was the name of Jeff Wyler and a listing of his five auto dealerships.
The Colorado Avalanche goalie tried to score a goal Saturday night and angered the Edmonton Oilers in the process.
The Oilers pulled goalie Bob Essanna for an extra attacker with 1:47 to play after the Avalanche built a 4-2 lead, and Roy spent much of the time skating into the faceoff circles to launch shots at the vacated net.
DENVER — The one goal that has eluded Patrick Roy during the years is scoring one.
Despite empty net, Roy still can't score
Roy didn't succeed, although he did get an assist on Shion Podein's empty-net goal with 5.6 seconds remaining.
How did the owner take it?
"It's selfish play going into the corners and playing like another defenseman back there," Oilers right wing Mike Grier said.
The criticism hardly bothered Roy.
The significance? It was the first time since Marge Schott took control of the team in the 1980s that a competing car dealer was allowed to advertise in the stadium. Schott has a Buick dealership.
The criticism hardly bothered Roy. "I guess they respect my shot because they were all ready at the blue line," he said.
How did the owner take it?
Several Reds employees said she was not happy with the arrangement.

Royals lose home opener
Red Sox prevail 5-3 to a sellout crowd wind and rain delay
The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The Boston Red Sox did just fine in their first game without Mo Vaughn.
Jose Offerman, signed from Kansas City to replace Vaughn's bat, went 4-for-5 and John Valentin homered yesterday to lead the Red Sox against the Kansas City Royals 5-3 on opening day.
Pedro Martinez struck out nine in six innings as Boston won its opener for the sixth time in seven years.
After a 28-minute rain delay, the Royals took a 2-0 lead in the first against Martinez, who won 19 games last year and finished second in AL Cy Young voting.
But Boston came back in the third against Kevin Appier, who made only three starts last season while recovering from shoulder surgery.
Offerman, who spent three seasons with the Royals, was signed by Boston after Vaughn went to Anaheim for an $80 million, six-year contract. He doubled in the first, singled in the third and scored on Valentin's homer, a 410-foot shot to center.
Offerman, booed each time he was announced, singled again in the seventh, then tripped off Scott Service in the ninth and scored on Valentin's double.
Valentin was 2-for-5 with three RBIs for Boston, which won the AL wild card last year but lost to Cleveland in the first round of the playoffs.
A sellout crowd of 40,257 was at Kauffman Stadium on a windy afternoon that turned sunny.
the Royals, whose 22-9 record was baseball's best during spring training, went ahead quickly. After a home run by Joe Randa, one of four newcomers in Kansas City's infield, Johnny Damon singled, stole second and made it 2-0 on Larry Sutton's double.
Mike Stanley and Scott Hatteberg had RBI singles in the sixth for Boston. The Royals, with the help of Valentin's fielding error at third, scored an unearned run off Derek Lowe in the seventh.
Appier, a 31-year-old right-hander, was tagged for four runs and eight hits in 5-1 3 innings, walked three and fanned only one, which would have been uncharacteristic before surgery, when he was a hard thrower.
Martinez gave up two runs and all six of Kansas City's hits. Lowe followed with two innings and Tom Gordon finished for the save. He has converted a record 44 straight save chances since last April 13, but blew one against Cleveland in the playoffs.
Notes: Former Royals star George Brett, who will be inducted into the Hall of Fame this summer, threw out the first pitch and was given a standing ovation. Two huge action pictures of Brett have been hung on the wall in the visiting team bullpen facing the stands with a "Cooperstown Countdown" ticking off the days until the ceremony. ... Boston left fielder Troy O'Leary saved a run with a fine running catch of Jermaine Dye's two-out drive in the first ... The crowd was the fifth largest for opening day in Royals history.

Dodgers slide by Arizona in season debut
Million-dollar Brown has unprofitable game in Dodgers' premiere
The Associated Press
LOS ANGELES — Baseball's first $10 million man wasn't worth it in his Los Angeles Dodgers' debut.
Raul Mondesi, fortunately, was right on the money and bailed out Kevin Brown, who flopped in his marquee matchup with Randy Johnson.
Mondesi tied the game with a three-run homer with two outs in the ninth, then hit a two-run homer in the 11th to give him six RBIs as the Dodgers beat the Arizona Diamondbacks 8-6 in yesterday's season opener.
He appeared headed to a loss until Mondesi got a home run off Gregg Olson on a 3-0 pitch in the ninth following leadoff singles by Jose Vizcaino and Dave Hansen against
Brown allowed five runs and 10 hits in 5-2-3 innings, giving up a pair of solo homers to Bernard Gilkey and a three-run shot to Jay Bell that put Arizona ahead 5-2 in the sixth.
Armando Reynoso.
Mondesi got a home run again two innings left off John Frascatore after a two-out walk to Gary Sheffield.
Randy Johnson, making his Diamondbacks' debut and his seventh opening-day start, left for a pinch hitter in the eighth after allowing just five hits and two runs in seven innings. He walked six and struck out nine.
While Brown flopped in his Dodgers debut, Davey Johnson came out a winner in his first game as the Los Angeles manager.
Brown, who threw 111 pitches, struck out seven and walked two. He was booed by many in the sellout crowd of 53,109 at Dodger Stadium as he left the field.
With $157.4 million in pitchers on the mound — based on 34 starts a season, Brown earned about $441,000 for the game and Johnson $385,000 — the game had been sold out for weeks.
Mondesi hit a two-out RBI single off Johnson in the first, and former Diamondback Devon White homered off Johnson in the fourth.
Last year, while helping San Diego win the NL pennant, Brown allowed just eight home runs in 257 innings and had the best home-run ratio in the league.
gained it had been much anticipated since Johnson signed a $52.4 million, four-year contract with the Diamondbacks
on Nov. 30, and Brown signed a $105 million, seven-year deal with the Dodgers 12 days later.
They opposed each other last fall in the opener of the NI duction.
Dodgers
series, with Brown striking out 16 as the Padres beat Houston 2-1.
He wasn't the same pitcher against the Diamondbacks.
Gilkey, who also singled in the second, is 8-for-15 against Brown with four homers.
Jeff Shaw, who retired all six batters he faced, earned the victory.
Arizona got its sixth run off Pedro Borbon on an RBI single by Matt Williams after Brown left in the sixth. Eric Karros hit an RBI single in the eighth off Darren Holmes to draw the Dodgers within three runs.
Notes: In honor of his 50th season as play-by-play voice of the Dodgers, Hall of Fame broadcaster Vin Scully threw out the ceremonial first pitch before the game.
The Dodgers have drawn more than 50,000 in seven straight home openers and in 13 of their 38 openers at Dodger Stadium since 1962.
The Dodgers have a 21-17 record in Dodger Stadium home openers, including last year's 9-1 victory over the Diamondbacks.
Brown and Johnson faced each other for the fourth time in a regular-season game. They last met on Aug. 21, 1995, at Seattle, with neither player involved in the decision. Brown was pitching for Baltimore at that time. He pitched for Texas in their first two meetings while Johnson pitched for Seattle.
Both teams had exceptional springs — the Dodgers went 21-9 while the Diamondbacks were 22-10. Brown entered the game having never allowed a home run in 20 previous innings at Dodger Stadium.
Playing in his first game for the Dodgers, Todd Hundley struck out four times before singling in the 10th.
Giants' player fouls up, then saves the day
The Associated Press
CINCINNATI — Charlie Hayes didn’t figure to play much in San Francisco’s opener. Needed because of a first-inning injury, he wound up winning the game with a home run.
Hayes, who took over at third base when Bill Mueller was hurt, committed an error that helped Cincinnati rally, then hit a three-run homer in the eighth inning that provided the final turning point in a wild 11-8 victory Monday.
REDS
The Reds overcame a four-run deficit with home runs by Mike Cameron, Mark Sweeney and Sean Casey, pulling ahead 8-6 with six-run sixth inning. Haves 'error fueled the comeback.
The Giants quieted the crowd of 55,112 — the seventh-largest regular-season crowd in stadium history — with a pair of homers that pulled it out.
Ellis Burks hit a two-run homer into the second deck in center field to tie it in the seventh offoser John Hudek. After a pair of walks opened the eighth, Hayes homered into the second deck in left field off Gabe White.
Alan Embree got the win with one perfect inning, and Robb Nen pitched the ninth for the save.
The Giants lost Mueller in the first inning when he was hit by a pitch from Brett Tomkio and broke his big left toe. There was no immediate indication how long he'll be out.
Tonko, who got the opening day start because Denny Neagle and Pete Harnisch have been slowed by injury, gave up eight hits and six runs in only three and two-thirds innings.
Mark Gardner, who lost the Giants' one-game playoff against Chicago for the NL wild-card berth last season, wasn't much better than Tomko. Gardner gave up nine hits and five runs in five and one-thirds innings, including Cameron's two-run homer in the second and Sweeney's pinch-hit, three-run homer in the sixth that cut it to 6-5.
Julian Tavarez came on and gave up Casey's homer, which completed the Reds' sixth and put them ahead 8-6. Casey also had a single and a double.
Jeff Kent, J.T. Snow and Burks each drove in a pair of runs in San Francisco's 15-hit attack.
While the Giants' pitching staff struggled, their offense picked up where it left off last season Cwhen it scored the second-most runs in franchise history and was third in the NL with a .274 average.
Barry Bonds, a three-time MVP in the 1990s who is often pitched around, set a National League record when he drew the 290th intentional walk of his career in the fourth inning.
Bonds moved one ahead of Hank Aaron, who still holds the major league record of 293 career intentional walks.
Tigers pounce defending division champions as pitcher attempts no-hitter
The Associated Press
ARLINGTON, Texas — Brian Moehler and the Detroit Tigers looked like defending division champions, not the Texas Rangers.
Juan Encarnación homered on the game's first pitch and Moehler took a no-hit bid into the seventh inning yesterday as the Tigers beat Texas 11-5.
Moehler, trying to join Bob Feller as the only pitchers to throw no-hitters on opening day, had his try broken up when Juan Gonzalez singled with one out in the seventh inning.
By then, the Tigers already led the AL West champions 11-0. Bobby Higginson and Damion Easley both hit three-run homers in the third inning.
moehler (1-0) shout out Texas until Gonzalez lined a single to center and Rangers new
comer Rafael Palmeiro followed with an RBI double.
It was a miserable day all around for the Rangers and their ace, Rick Helling (0-1). Their offense stalled until the last few innings, after bad pitching and bad defense put them in a big hole.
Every Detroit hitter had a hit and an RBI by the sixth inning and its fielding was rarely tested, mostly because Moehler was mowing down batters.
Moehler, who didn't win on the road until June 30 last year, appeared to have no-hit stuff as he retired the side in the first, third, fourth and fifth innings.
His only other jam was the second, when he walked Gonzalez and Palmeiro to open the inning but got out of it by getting Ivan Rodriguez to ground into a double play and Lee Stevens to pop out.
Moehler, bidding for the earliest-ever no hitter on the calendar and just the second on opening day, gave up just two hits and one run in seven innings. He walked two and struck out six.
Helling, trying to prove his 20-7 record last year was no fluke, allowed four of the first five Tigers to reach base — and it got worse from there. He was shelled for seven runs, five earned in just three innings.
A double play and two caught stealings by Ivan Rodriguez helped Helling reach the fourth inning, but he was knocked out before getting an out. He allowed a single and a walk before Higginson's homer, then loaded the bases with a walk and two hit batsmen, both of whom had two strikes on them.
Helling put his arms over his face after hit ting Brad Ausmus and Brian Hunter.
Esteban Loiaza replaced Helling and got the inning's first out when Encarnacion flied out. But several bad decisions by Texas' defense led to another run
Stevens, playing first base because Palmeiro's right knee is healing from two operations, started it by cutting off Gonzalez's throw. He then threw to third baseman Todd Ziele, who

opted to start a rundown to get Ausmusi coming from second — a move that allowed Deivi Cruz to score from third.
But the Rangers didn't get Ausmus because Royce Clayton's return throw to Zeile bounced offAusmus' head for the sec
Masao Kida relieved Moehler to open the eighth and he, too, made a bit of history. Kida, who played 10 years in Japan, is the eighth Japanese player to play in the majors and the first born in Tokyo.
His debut was unimpressive, though, as he allowed an RBI groundout by Rusty Greer and a two-run single by Gonzalez.
Stevens homered in the ninth off Doug Brocail.
Orchard Corners
MIKE MORGAN, competing with Loiza for the fifth starter's job, took over late in the inning and made pro sports history in the process. The Rangers are his 11th team, breaking the major league record held by Bob L. Miller, Tommy Davis and Ken Brett. The NFL and NHL records are 10 and the NBA mark is nine.

Tigers name Duke assistant as candidate for coaching job
The Associated Press
COLUMBIA, Mo. — Duke assistant Quin Snyder says he is impressed with what he has heard about Missouri's program but won't say much about his meeting last week with Missouri athletic director Mike Alden.
Alden, who is looking for a replacement for Norm Stewart, met with Snyder in Detroit on Friday. Stewart retired Thursday after coaching the Tigers for 32 years.
"I'm not sure what the situation is," Snyder said. "I think (Alden) is still trying to distill everything. Maybe he's just thinking it over. He said he'd be in contact. I think he wants to get something done within a week."
Alden said he can't project when he'll get back with Snyder.

Alden did not return telephone calls from The Associated Press immediately yesterday.
Alden also went to Oklahoma to talk to Tulsa coach Bill Self. He interviewed Kim

John Calipari on Sunday. Calipari is the former coach of Massachusetts who was fired last month by the NBA's New Jersey Nets.
Asked if he might ultimately interview a dozen or more candidates, Alden said, "It could turn out that way. But we feel it
really dilutes the pool if you get too many. And right now we think we have some great, great candidates."
Snyder, a former Duke player and an assistant under Mike Krzyzewski the past four years, declined to comment on what details were discussed at his meeting with Alden.
meeting with her. "I'll just say I was very impressed with Missouri," Snyder said. He added that he was not entertaining other offers and a visit to Columbia was not scheduled.
Alden has said he wanted to move quickly to find Stewart's replacement. Tomorrow is the first day of the late signing period. Recruits can make written commitments to schools from tomorrow until Mav 15
"I'd say Wednesday is an outside chance," Alden said. "We're not going to sacrifice the goals of the search just to get something done by Wednesday."
Former quarterback receives probation for gambling scandal
CHICAGO — Former Northwestern quarterback Brian Ballarini was placed on probation for three years yesterday for his role as a bookie in a sports gambling scandal that swept the campus.
The Associated Press
Northwestern player sentenced
"It hurts me, but it's dragging my parents' good name through the mud," he told the court, stopping twice to compose himself.
sell.
He pleaded guilty in August to transmitting gambling information over the telephone in the mid-1990s. Prosecutors said that once he was caught, Ballarini cooperated with their gambling investigation.
They nevertheless recommended one month behind bars plus probation for the 25-year-
old former player, saying examples were needed to deter others.
Defense attorney Dan Webb told U.S. District Judge Ann Williams that other students had played more serious roles in the scandal, which reached into the school's football and basketball programs. He said Ballarini had never gambled in his life until he got to Northwestern. Webb blamed the school for letting a serious campus gambling problem fester unchecked.
Webb also noted that Ballarini wore a wire to help prosecutors crack down on Northwestern gambling and had twice appeared before a grand jury.
"He made a serious mistake in judgment, but he deserves one more chance in life," Webb said, in urging Williams not to jail Ballarini.
Webb said Ballarini was financially very astute and would like to get involved in the securities industry or something similar. He said his client was broke and having trouble getting a job. He said Ballarini still owed $15,000 from his gambling days.
"He made a serious mistake in judgment, but he deserves one more chance in life."

Williams ordered Ballarini to submit to three months of electronic monitoring and get mental health counseling as part of his probation term.
She also ordered him to continue with his NCAA program to discourage campus gambling and perform 200 hours of community service.

Vince Carter leads team in six straight victories
Raptors on rebound from losing history
The Associated Press
TORONTO — Take one of the NBA's worst teams, add two tough old-timers and one scintillating rookie, flip into a new arena, then sizzle until red-hot.
That recipe has transformed the Toronto Raptors into a legitimate playoff contender for the first time in their four-year history.
They are playing the first meaningful NBA games ever in Canada — and have won a franchise-record six straight, including down-to-the-buzzer victories against San Antonio and Indiana.
After three-plus seasons housed in Toronto's cavernous SkyDome, the Raptors moved to the new Air Canada Centre on Feb. 21. Since then, they've gone 11-2 at home, and Raptors tickets are suddenly as coveted as NHL tickets for the playoff-bound Toronto Maple Leafs.
"We have a vendetta against the entire league because just about every
body has beat on us," reserve forward John Wallace said. "Now, we're the team doing a little laughing."
Fans had modest hopes for this abbreviated season, suspecting a reprise of the 16-66 record in 1997-98.
But top draft choice Vince Carter has blossomed rapidly into a star and is the clear favorite for rookie of the year. He leads the team in scoring with 17.6 points a game and dominates local sports-show highlights.
But Carter's brilliance alone wouldn't have gotten the Raptors where they are now, in seventh place in the Eastern Conference at 18-14.
Charles Oakley and Kevin Willis, two tested and tough big men, were acquired during the off-season, going from title contenders to the seemingly hapless Raptors.
They injected the team with the most crucial missing ingredient—a strong work ethic, a willingness to wage trench warfare game after game, regardless of the score.
Oakley's statistics aren't glamorous, but he just might be more valuable to the Raptors than he ever was to the
Willis, the former Houston Rocket in his 15th NBA season, has struggled with a shoulder injury the past month, but nonetheless has been the most solid center the Raptors have ever had.
New York Knicks, inspiring gritty play from his mostly young teammates.
"He's there for everybody," backup
guard Dee Brown said. "Kevin lets
guard Dee Brown everyone know when they do a good job."
Brown has been vital to the offense with his three-point shooting off the bench. Starting guard Doug

game.
Butch Carter, in his first full season as a head coach, also has made effective use of Wallace and reserve swingman Tracy McGrady. Each is averaging more than eight points a game.
Vince Carter is the one who electrifies the crowds — mixing three-point
ers with twisting layups and emphatic dunks, seemingly gaining energy in the fourth quarter.
four quarter On Saturday night, his defense was pivotal in an 87-85 victory against Washington.
Wizards star Mitch Richmond took an inbounds pass with 10 seconds left and maneuvered for a winning or tying shot.
But Carter stayed with Richmond to prevent a drive, then leapt when Richmond tried a long shot, disrupting the release. The ball never hit the rim.
Willis put his arm around Carter after the game and walked him down the court.
"He knows his defense has be to there to be a well-rounded player," Willis said. "I just wanted to make sure he knew. He knows what he can be."
After Sunday's home-court win against Philadelphia, Oakley was asked how it felt to be ahead of the Knicks in the standings.
"We're looking down on a lot of teams," he said. "We can't brag, or this or that. We've just got to play ball every night."
Masters' favorite looks for first major tournament win
The Associated Press
AUGUSTA, Ga. — Too bad yesterday was only a practice round at the Masters. David Duval took the day off.
While most everyone else was getting a look at the new rough and the two new tree boxes at Augusta National, Duval arrived at the clubhouse with little fanfare, seated backward in the back of a golf cart. That seemed only appropriate.
During the first three months of the season, Duval has left everyone in his wake.
"I wish he would play a little less, so maybe I might win one," Justin Leonard said. "What he's done is incredible. If there was somebody whose respect he didn't have before this year, it think he's gained it."
didn't have before this year. I simply Duval's latest conquest was Sunday in the BellSouth Classic, where he went from two strokes down to a two-stroke victory in the last four holes in which the full measure of his game was on display - brilliant chipping, solid putting, long drives and remarkable calm.
It was his fourth victory this year, and second time he had won back-to-back. No one else has won more than once this year.
"He's definitely got something going on in his head that most people don't have," Mark Calcavecchia said. "That could be the peaceful feeling he's talking about, the thing where you hit it, find it and hit it again. He knows he's good enough that he can keep plugging away."
Calceacchia watched it all unfold on the television in Augusta's clubhouse, where he stopped for lunch
before playing nine holes in fading sunlight
"It he going to win every tournament?" Calcavecchia said. "Four wins in the '90s is good, let alone four wins in 3 1/2 months. That's unbelievable. He's got to be the man to beat. I can't imagine he's going to suffer any kind of letdown."
kind of redowear.
That proved to be a popular sentiment yesterday. The Duval Express was as hot a topic Monday as the crew-cut rough that frames the fairways and the 17th tee box that has been moved back 25 yards, finally making the best players in the world realize why President Eisenhower wanted to chop down the pine tree that looms over the left side of the fairway.
Winning four tournaments in a year is heady stuff. Since 1980, only Nick Price in 1994 has won more often in a full season. Duval still has about 16 events left this year, including the four majors.
year, including the job he had. "He's been hotter than a firecracker," said Fuzzy Zoeller. "He has a lot of talent, and it was just a matter of time before it started happening."
With his victory in The Players Championship two weeks ago, Duval rose to No.1 in the world ranking, ending Tiger Woods' reign at 41 weeks. He still lacks a major championship, and being the heavy favorite at Augusta doesn't always guarantee a green jacket.
The last player who came to the Masters on this kind of a roll and managed to win was Fred Couples in 1992
a roll and managed to win. "Adam Couple said, "But he's won 11 of the last 34 times he's played. That's borderline ridiculous. I don't know of anyone else who's done that."
The last player to put together such a stretch was
Tom Watson in 1980. To find someone who already has won four times going into the Masters, go all the way back to the Johnny Miller in 1974.
"Has he really won four already?" Jim Furyk asked. "I don't think anyone is surprised because Davis has been playing well, and he really doesn't have any weaknesses. Then again, it's incredible."
Miller finished in a tie for 15th in the Masters that year, but he bagged his four victories before he even got to the Florida swing. Duval comes into the Masters riding the confidence of having won the past two weeks.
past two weeks.
"I think my head is where it needs to be." Duval said.
"I think my golf swing is where it needs to be. It is in a good spot right now."
All he needs now is rest, which is why he didn't even bother to bring his clubs down Magnolia Lane when he registered. Duval always takes Monday off, and there's no reason to change that this week.
More than anything, Duval attributes his success this year to his frame of mind. He won in Hawaii, took a week off to go snowboarding in Idaho, then came back and shot a 59 on Sunday to win the Hope Classic.
He took off three weeks in March, showed up at the Players Championship and won the biggest tournament of his career to date, then moved on to Atlanta for another victory speech.
"If you make sure you're rested when you're playing, and that you are ready to play and you're looking forward to playing, I have found that to be the most important thing for me to play well," he said. "I need to be in a position where I want to play."
Washington Wizards fire losing coach
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON - Under Bernie Bickerstaff, the Washington Wizards became a tentative team that froze in the fourth quarter, with little hustle for the big rebound or loose ball.
mature for the big回归.
In danger of missing the playoffs for the 10th
time in 11 years and struggling at 13-19, the Wizards
fired Bickertaff yesterday.
Assistant coach Jim Brovell will serve as an interim coach for the rest of the season.
"I felt this team wasn't moving in the direction that we anticipated," said general manager Wes Unseld, whose friendship with Bickerstaff dates to the 1970s. "This is one of the toughest decisions that I've had to make, but it was my feeling that a change was necessary at this time."
The Wizards, who lost 90-79 to Miami on Sunday, are in fifth place in the Atlantic Division and not in playoff contention. They have one of the best backcourts in the league in Mitch Richmond and Rod Strickland and a top forward in Juwan Howard but lack a quality center.
The Wizards' real nemesis has been the fourth quarter. They have held the lead in 20 of their 32 games after three periods, but they've gone on to lose nine of those 20.
"I did not think we were a loose and relaxed basketball team,"guard Tim Legler said."I think that's indicative of what's happened this year when we've had close games."
Bickerstaff sometimes left players confused with his unusual player rotations. Several times this season he would play a starter for five minutes, then bench him for the rest of the game.
game.
"A lot of guys weren't very relaxed in their role and weren't sure exactly what was expected of them on a nightly basis," Legler said.
As the losses mounted, Bickerstaff admitted he wasn't able to produce a fourth-quarter victory. But he also said his club wasn't as talented as teams such as Miami, an accusation that didn't sit well with his players.
"There is a missing ingredient," Bickerstaff said after Sunday's game. "And the ingredient is you have to look yourself and say, 'Do we have the innate ability to do those things?'"
Bickerstaff's dismissal is the fourth coaching change this season, following Del Harris of the Lakers, Dave Cowens of the Hornets and John Calipari of the Nets.
Campbell of the team Bickerstaff was in his 10th season as an NBA coach. His record was 338-348, including 77-71 in his two years with the Wizards.
The Wizards were 42-40 last season.

Three candidates elected to commission
(USPS 650-640)
By Heather Woodward hwoodward@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
The upstairs gallery of the Douglas County Courthouse was packed with Lawrence City Commission candidates, curious voters and supportive family members last night.
Voters elected Jim Henry, Mike Rundle and David Dunfield to four-year terms on the city commission. The new commissioners will replace Bonnie Augustine, Bob Moody and John Nalbandian, who did not seek re-election.
Henry, 64, is a retired KU associate placement director. He said he thought it would be fun working with Dunfield and Rundle.
"I am going to learn a lot from them because they represent parts of the community that I don't know as much about," Henry said. "I'm primary feeling gratitude right now and appreciation for everyone who

helped on my campaign."
Rundle, 45, is the membership services coordinator and newsletter editor for Community Mercantile Co-op, 901 Mississippi St. He said that the final hour of the election was a nerve-wreaking one and that he was glad it was finished.
"I am glad I have been elected to a four-year term so that I can have a long-term impact," Rundle said. "I am very pleased and honored that I came in second."
Dunfield, 46, is an architect at Glenn Livinggood Penzler Architects,
P. A. 1001 New Hampshire St. He said he was elated about winning a seat and excited to begin his work with the other commissioners.
"I would like to think that I got elected because of the fact that I can talk to people from a variety of viewpoints." Dumfield said. "I think this will be a really good group to work with on the commission."
Brenda McFadden, who is 35 and owns McFadden & Associates, B25 Vermont St., came in fourth in the election after coming in first in the March 2 primary election. She said last night that she could not predict whether she would run in 2011 when Mayor Marty Kennedy and Commissioner Erv Hodges are up for re-election.
McFadden said she was disappo-
luted that she lost.
"I don't think it was me. I think it was apathy," McFadden said. "A lot of my constituency is pretty happy."

Band selection up in the air

KJHK must make hay before eight local bands shine at the Farmer's Ball, a three-night rock-off between local bands beginning April 20 at The Bottleneck, 737 New Hampshire St.
The eight lucky bands that will compete have not yet been selected, said Andrew Dierks, KJHK music director.
"We have a box of about 80 tapes," he said. "We're going to have to listen to all of them."
Dierks, Elena Abatigis, JKHJ program director, and a few other staff members will number each tape so that they can do a blind ranking. Dierks said.

During the first two nights of the competition, the audience will vote for the best act, Dierks said. The winners of those two nights then will

compete against each other on the third night.
The victor of the third night will receive free recording time at Red House Productions, 701 Maine St., and also will perform at Day on the Hill
a free outdoor concert sponsored annually by Student Union Activities.
Matt Dunehoo, SUA live music coordinator, said a headline act for Day on the Hill, which will be on May 1, had not been found.
"We were going to have the Flaming Lips, but we found out that they were on a European tour." Dunehoo said.
Dunehoo said he had been working around the clock trying to find a replacement by Friday.
Amid the uncertainty, one cow again may make himself available for Day on the Hill.
KU graduate Chad Saddoris, who danced across the stage during last year's concert in a cow costume, said it was very possible he would return.
"It's just a fly-by-the-pants sort of thing." Saddoris said.

Late professor noted for special-education work
1985

Chancellor Robert Hemenway, left, shakes Floyd Hudson's hand, while Dan Bolen from Commerce Bank looks on. Hudson, associate professor of special education, died of a heart attack Saturday. Contributed photo
Before arriving at the University of Kansas, Floyd Hudson was the principal at Swaney Elementary in Derby. His sister Doris Welch said that Hudson would meet his students at the door, put a star on their hands and congratulate each of them on something they had done well that day.
Hudson had worked at the University of Kansas and the University of Kansas Medical Center for 31 years.
everytime Hudson, associate professor of special education, died Saturday of a heart attack. He was 63.
Services will be held at 10 a.m. tomorrow at D.W. Newcomer's Sons Overland Park Chapel. Graveside services and burial will take place at Wesleyan Methodist Cemetery in Centerville.
"He found something good in every child," Welch said.
Tom Skirtle, chairman of the special education department, said that Hudson received acclaim for his work at the University and that he was known nationally and internationally in the learning disabilities field.
Hudson had served as the coordinator of the Learning Disabilities program since 1969 until he resigned earlier this year. He was replaced by Suzanne Robinson, associate professor of special education. It is not yet known who will take over the two classes that Hudson was teaching this semester.
Skrtic said Hudson was known for his push to incorporate students with learning disabilities into regular classrooms.
"He's largely responsible for shifting the focus from a medical model to an academic, remedial model," he said.
Skrtic said Hudson also was loved within the classroom, and he expected that a lot of former
students would come to the services.
Diana McKenzie, who runs the special education program for Lawrence high schools, said she had taken classes from Hudson as an undergraduate, graduate and post-graduate student.
"His funeral is just going to be an amazing event," Skrtic said. "People are going to come from all over the country."
Hudson won multiple awards during his career, including a 1998 Kemper Fellowship and the 1997 Award of Excellence from the Kansas Federation of the Council for Exceptional Children. He also was invited to speak as part of the White House lecture series in 1975. He served on the boards of eight different special education groups.
"I think he's one of the reasons that KU special ed is tops in the nation," she said.
"There wasn't another one like him," his wife, Betty, said. "He was loved by thousands for
his uniqueness. He was funny, and witty, and tender, and sensitive."
Hudson is survived by his wife, Betty, of Shawnee; two sons, Rex, Centerville, and Max, Pleasanton; two grandsons, Jesse, 17, and Dustin, 14, or
Pleasanton; five sisters; seven nephews; and three nieces. His family asks that memorial contributions be sent to Kansas Special Olympics, 5280 Foxridge Dr., Mission, Kan., 62020.

Members of the YOU coalition who filed a complaint against Delta Force last week about alleged campaign abuses were disappointed by the election commission's Monday decision in favor of Delta Force.
Ben Walker, Hutchinson sophomore, and R.J. Woodring, Lisle, Ill., freshman, incumbent YOU candidates for Nunemaker senators, were upset that the commission already has completed its investigation into allegations that Delta Force consulted with a nonstudent for campaign advice.
Woodring said he had hoped the commission would conduct a more in-depth investigation.

Delta Force had consistently denied the allegations,

mitted violations. "It was a very, very hasty decision," he said. "They were blinded by allegations that this was politically motivated."
Despite his disappointment, Walker said they would not look into the possibility of an appeal and would not actively nurse further evidence.
notice that Jennifer Watkins, elections commissioner, would not comment on the board's decision. But she said that she would not take any punitive action against Walker and Wooding.
Walker and wooding In their complaint, Walker and Woodring claimed that Delta Force did not include a fair market value salary on its initial expense report for alleged consultation with Jason Fizell, 1988 KU graduate and former Delta Force president.
They alleged that Fitzell, research director for the Associated Students of Madison at the University of Wisconsin at Madison, yelled about campaign issues in the Student Senate office and spoke with Seth Hoffman, Delta Force candidate for student body president, and Partha Mazumdar, incumbent Delta Force candidate for graduate senator.
In addition, they said, Fitzell was in a photograph at the Delta Force kickoff party and was listed as a "friend of the force," or a supporter of the coalition, on the Delta Force Web site, www.ukans.edu/~dforce.
The elections code requires that coalitions pay out for commision and help report it to the commission.
The elections code requires that council members payiders for campaign help and report it to the commission. Fizell had denied that he was involved with the Delta Force campaign.
maguadar, who refuted the charges at the hearing, said many non-students were included in photographs and as "friends of the force" on the Delta Force Web site. He admitted that Fizell had been in the Senate office when he was in Lawrence during spring break and had spoken with himself and Hoffman, but he said that was no proof of Fizell's alleged involvement in the Delta Force campaign.
"I think it's a 100 percent political." Mazumdar said.
"They do this every year. They file all these complaints against us, and we always win. I don't want to

Dennis Moore to have forum at local school
Congressman Dennis Moore, D-Kan., will return to the district to host an education forum from 7 to 8:30 tonight at Central Junior High School.
Judy Buley, communications director for the Lawrence School District, said the main reason that Moore was visiting is to find out what people thought about increasing education financing to hire more teachers and to renovate schools.
"I think this is unique," she said. "I don't think we've ever had a congressman come to find out local opinion on initiatives before Congress."
Moore is nearing the end of his Spring District Work Period, which takes place during two weeks when Congress is not in session.
Outreach center plans service learning panel
The Center for Community Outreach will have a service learning panel from 3:30 to 5 p.m. today at Woodruff Auditorium in the Kansas Union.
Chris Hess, co-director of CCO, said that service learning had been an important aspect at many other colleges and that the University of Kansas also was headed in that direction.
"It's basically the idea that service can enhance basic classroom teaching," he said. "This is really the future of education."
Panelists will include Gay Brack, associate director of the Division of Undergraduate Academic Services at Arizona State University; Brian Dunbar, professor of interior architectural design at Colorado State University; E.J. Reedy, Topeka sophomore; Thomas Deans, assistant professor of English at Kansas State University; Marcia Shideler, service learning coordinator at Johnson County Community College, and Marylee Southard, associate professor of chemical and petroleum engineering.
The board will be moderated by Reginald Robinson, chair of the Chancellor's Public Service Task Force.

Wescoe Beach is getting sand. The SUA recreation committee is sponsoring a sand sculpture contest from noon to 5 today in front of Wescoe Hall.
Sixteen plots will be provided, one for each team, and each team will consist of four people.
Sculptures will be judged on creativity, artistic ability and overall aesthetic appeal by KU football coach Terry Allen.
The winning team will receive a Sony Playstation. The top two teams will
receive trophies, and all teams will receive a photograph of their team with their sand sculpture.
Howard Lubliner, recreation coordinator for SUA, said that this was the first time the competition had ever been held and that, according to weather forecasts, today should be ideal for the event.
Several spots still were open in the contest as of yesterday, Lublin said. Students can sign up at the SUA office in the Kansas Union or at the event.

Student Senate to move meeting to Phi Kappa Psi
Student Senate is trying to reach out to students by taking its meeting outside the Kansas Union tonight.
Senate will meet for the last time before elections at 6:30 at Phi Kappa Psi, 1602 W. 15th St.
Last year, Senate held its outside meeting at Ellsworth Hall. Jen Bonicelli, senate executive secretary, said that this year Senate wanted to reach out to students in the greek system.
It will consider bills to finance a basketball tournament sponsored by KU Students Against Drunk Driving; Pride Week 1999 sponsored by Queers and Allies; a talent fee for Michael Berenbaum, Holocaust survivor, sponsored by Hillel; KU Ballroom Dancing Club's end of the semester ball; advertising costs for the KU Campus Internet Association, and the Center for Community Outreach's Alternative Spring Break program.
Senate also will review bills to include a Daisy Hill resident on the transportation board and to create a state and local affairs standing committee to aid the Student Legislative Awareness Board.
In addition, Senate will consider resolutions that would request that the administration sign an anti-sweatshop code; would rename 820 McCollum Hall the Joshua J. Burdette Memorial, in recognition of its active resident of four years; and would support and encourage the owners of Joe's Bakery, 616 W. Ninth St., to reopen the business soon.

The board will choose a new coordinator that night, who will begin training this month.

University lab vandalism impedes disease research
NATION
MINNEAPOLIS — An animal rights group claimed responsibility for ransacking 12 University of Minnesota labs, taking dozens of research animals and causing an estimated $1 million in damage.
A spokesman for the Animal Liberation Front said the group smashed computers, tipped over lab equipment and wrecked microscopes early Monday to protest the use of animals in scientific research.
The group said in a communique that 27 pigeons, 48 mice, 36 rats and five salamanders were taken out of the labs. The university initially estimated that about 75 animals were taken.
"The ALF is taking action immediately to free these animals from their exploitation," group spokesman Kevin Kjonaas said. He said the group had found homes for the animals.
University officials said the damage would seriously impede research on Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, cancer and other diseases.
Researcher Dr. Walter Low said the damage set back the Alzheimer's research alone by two years. One of the pieces of equipment damaged was an incubator containing brain cells from patients participating in a research project.
University Police Chief Joy Rikala said investigators were not ruling out the possibility that the vandals had inside help. Rikala said none of the freed animals were infectious or posed a health threat.
A KU student's checks were stolen between 2 a.m. March 24 and noon Friday in the 2300 block of Westchester Drive.

run around in the mud with them."
Two hours before the hearing, Walker and Woodring submitted an addendum to their complaint, which included an e-mail reportedly posted by Fizell to the Delta Force listserv Feb. 23.
Referring to the issue of a new campus recreation center, Fizell allegedly wrote: "WE NEED TO ORGANIZE AGAINST THIS AND PUT FORWARD OUR OWN ALTERNATIVE (AND MORE REASONABLE) PLAN. This is THE issue for the election and I am hoping to organize with some of you on it, so please let either Seth or I know of your interest and we can get going on this."
Fizell could not be reached for comment about the e-mail.
Hoffman denied that the e-mail was an indication of Fitzell's involvement. He said anyone could post any e-mail to the listserv.
Hoffman said that Delta Force did not solicit Fizell's consultation and that the e-mail was of Fizell's own accord.

Bethany Jaimes, Douglas County clerk, said 12,256 people voted in the election, which is 23 percent of registered voters. People could vote for three candidates.
Candidates Denise Gibson and O. Scott Henderson, who both lost, walked away with a resolve to run again.
Henderson, who is 58 and a retired supervisor with Hallmark Cards Inc., 101 McDonald Dr., said his sixth-place rank was what he had expected.
"I didn't do any TV advertising. I was naive going into the campaign," Henderson said. "I plan on coming back in two years and doing something completely different. I need to get my name out and get more背横."
Gibson, 37, is a professional development manager for The Farm Inc., a non-profit organization. She said although she was defeated, the election still had been fun for her.
"I think it was a great race." Gibson said. "I am glad for all three of them. They are a great group of guys, and I think they will do well."
The three new commissioners will step up to the city commission Tuesday.

Messages personalize AIDS quilt
By T.J. Johnson

Kansas staff writer
A plain three-by-three foot piece of fabric hangs in the lobby of City Hall with a marker attached, waiting to record the thoughts and feelings of those who have had their lives touched by AIDS.
The panel is one part of the Community Quilt "Signature Squares," which are on display as part of the Douglas County AIDS Project's AIDS Awareness Month at various locations around Lawrence. The quilt panel was first displayed April 1.
Below the panel, a message invites visitors to record their thoughts about how they have been impacted by AIDS or to write in a memory of someone who has died.

Catherine Bolton, a member of the Board of Directors at DCAP and a KU social welfare student, organized the Lawrence Community Quilt. She said she was involved in the national Names Project Quilt that included a blank area for people to write in individual comments about their feelings and experiences with AIDS.

COLLEGE RELENTLY ORIGINAL
That blank area was part of the inspiration for the Community Quilt.
Bolton said the panels were a way for people to share feelings they had, which they might not otherwise have expressed.
About four of the quilt panels will circulate in Lawrence this month to allow people to see the impact of AIDS in the community and to add their personal messages.
One panel will be on display at City Hall for the entire month of April, another will be at the Lawrence Public Library April 10 and 24 and others will be at events scheduled around town during AIDS Awareness Month.
DCAP. Hardgrave said that this was the first year the quilt panels had been displayed and that the event was part of commemorating DCAP's 10th anniversary this month.
"Wherever there is an event, we will be there," said Sidney Hardgrave, Executive Director of DCAP.
Bolton said the quilt panels eventually would be put together and could be presented with the Names Project Quilt on World AIDS Day in December.
the people DCAP has served during the past decade also will be included.

Bolton said that during the late '80s, the Names Project Quilt was a way of dealing with the stigma that had been placed on the AIDS epidemic.
"When you are among those panels, it gives you an overwhelming feeling of humanity," she said. "It offers an opportunity to humanize the individual and remember and honor that person's struggle with this disease."

Student report: Writer's Roosts successful
Bv Ezra Sykes

Kansan staff writer
The report is in — the Roost's a boost
About 25 people gathered yesterday afternoon at the Sunflower Room in the Burge Union to listen to five students present information they had gathered in an extensive survey about the KU writing center, popularly known as the Writer's Roosts.
"Ifigured they'd just go in and blast you," Nick Adams, Ft. Scott freshman, said. "But the tut went through and helped me clean up the confusing spots."
"It gave me a head start," he said.
Adams was one of the five students who presented and said that working on the project gave him a helpful insight to the writing program.
The students were part of a 43-person group, made up of two English 101 classes, that worked together to author a report on the Writer's Roosts and, in the process, expand upon their

own writing, reading and thinking skill
"101 is usually kind of a grind," said Place, explaining the desire to make the basic English class a little more exciting.
The class first did its fieldwork. Students interviewed KU students and professors about the writing center. Several then went to the Writer's Roosts "undercover" and asked tutors to help them with their papers.
944 Mass.
832-8228
The group evaluated other Big 12 Conference schools' writing centers and collaborated to finish the report.
Place said that three major conclusions came from the report:
One, faculty members wanted students to go to the writing center but didn't think it was their place to tell them to do so.
Two, tutors were fairly consistent in their evaluations of student papers.
And three, students didn't know the writing center even existed.
But that is understandable. The Writer's Roosts have only been on campus since October 1998.
Eodice, assistant director of the group, said the group acted as a terrific ambassador for the writing center.
Eric Snider, Wichita sophomore, is a tutor for the Writer's Roosts and said the report was encouraging.
"It's exciting to see people grow so much in their confidence in writing," he said. "I feel good anytime someone leaves with a better paper."
The Writer's Roosts are open 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Monday through Thursday at the Sunflower
Room in the Burge Union and 4003 Wescoe Hall.
They also are open from 4 p.m. to 10 p.m. Sundays in Templin Hall and until 10 p.m. Wednesday in the Burge Union. There are additional services from noon to 4 p.m. Monday through Wednesday at 4006 Wescoe.

War defense system would upset world's nuclear balance of power
The idea of a missile defense system is appealing on its face. After all, who doesn't want a system that could protect the United States' allies from nuclear attack? But a closer inspection reveals that the risks involved harm the plan's usefulness.
First, such a system is prohibitively expensive. No one knows exactly how much a full-scale theater-missile defense system would cost, but dollar estimates range into the hundreds of billions. Former President Ronald Reagan's Strategic Defense Initiative, better known as the "Star Wars" project, was derailed by its cost. The current Congressional push for missile defense simply is a modified version of that program and is a huge tax burden.
But wouldn't a guarantee of safety from attack be worth a large tax burden? Maybe, but a massive missile defense system would not provide that guarantee. Early testing of missile defense systems has not provided encouraging results. In many tests, missiles have
Problems with the proposed missile defense system create too many risks.
recorded more misses than hits.
Worse, the new system would alter the delicate balance of nuclear deterrence that has helped prevent nuclear war until now.
Nuclear deterrence operates on the principle of mutual assured destruction, meaning no country with an adequate level of nuclear weapons will attack another because it fears a debilitating counterattack. For deterrence to work, both sides must have equal footing. A missile defense system would give the United States an advantage because, in theory, we could drop nuclear weapons on other countries without repercussions.
That potential advantage enrages other nuclear powers. China and Russia are both vehemently opposed to any
defense system.
U. S. relations with China and Russia already are strained, and a missile defense system would further antagonize them. That could send us into a nuclear war.
At the least, it could stall progress on initiatives aimed at reducing nuclear arsenals and cause countries to renegade on weapons treaties they have signed with us. The potential scenario for rapid rearmament is frightening.
Committing to a missile defense system also increases the likelihood of nuclear attack in the short term. Some political observers argue that a country might decide to attack the United States before the defense system is deployed, adopting a now-or-never nuclear philosophy.
The likelihood of nuclear attack is the lowest it has been in decades. A missile defense system is a step back. The antagonism it would cause in our relations with other countries is not worth the risk.

Ventura a model of changing times
After less than a year in office, Gov. Jesse Ventura of Minnesota already is the most quoted and probably the most well-known governor in the country.
Ventura has been a refreshing change, and many people believe he will win re-election easily. But, as many new trends, Ventura has had his share of controversy because of his out-spoken nature.
A former professional wrestler, Ventura was elected as an Independent. He does not possess the usual ties that bind most politicians to

needed to stop complaining about their salaries because they enjoyed summer holidays as well as other holidays.
Many of Ventura's views have caused some alarm. The governor was quoted as saying that teachers
But Ventura maintained his relevance because people enjoy hearing something different from a politician.
It will be interesting to see if Ventura starts a trend of electing unorthodox politicians. After the election and success of Jesse Ventura, many people now cannot think of any reason that other non-traditional politicians would not be able to attain a political office.

Granted, many U.S. dollars were spent, but where did they go? I'm sure they did not go to the hungry, unemployed or homeless. What is our country doing for Jamaica besides sending tourists? I ask, because I don't know. Some tourists can hide behind the knowledge that they tipped well. But I can't.
Also, I know that my government wants me to be under the impression that Cuba is a bad place. Again, I am confused, as I saw happy government officials and Baltimore Orioles enjoying the balmy breezes of Havana.
More so, I saw Fidel Castro rooting on his baseball team in the company of smiling Americans.
Only 90 miles off the U.S. coast, Cuba,
with its poverty-stricken people, sunny
oaches, surreal architecture and classic automobiles, seems like another possible candidate for a spring break love-fest.
Yet, we are not allowed to visit Cuba or even more important put any U.S. dollars into their economy.Again, I don't know why
On the other side of the coin, Stewart Copeland, drummer and founder of the band The Police, is leading a full-scale antiNATO campaign in Kosovo.
Then again, at my age, the actions of a rock star seem more important. But don't start shaking your head just yet. College students aren't the only clueless U.S. citizens.
Copeland and other musicians are defiantly playing concerts in town squares above the safety and confines of bomb shelters. I like the Police, and I love Sting. And it signifies to me that a famous American, such as Copeland, with the money to stay out of the Balkan tinderbox, must have a good reason for taking a stand.
There are countless adults who are misinformed. It was easy to have an opinion about the Monica Lewinsky scandal. Almost anyone can have sex or get someone to have sex with them.
It's sad and somewhat disenchanting, but we seem to turn our heads and close our minds in most conflicts with immense historical background, such as the case with Israel and the Middle East. The war in the Balkans revolves mostly around land designated to, and coveted by, certain ethnic groups after the break up of Yugoslavia.
But in this country, or at least in Lawrence, ethnic slaughter doesn't touch everyday lives.
People who are living in areas that are important to their religions and culture don't want to leave. Now they are being killed
We don't see that here. No one is going to tell me that I have to move to a sorority house tomorrow. NATO seems as though it is acting with good intentions to stop the slaving of these people.
As I said before, I don't know much about Kosovo. I do know that we can't just ignore these conflicts. It's our duty to admit we're ignorant of the situation and try to find out the information with which we can make educated decisions.
But realistically, people live in the areas being bombed. So, either way people get killed.
Just remember, decisions will be made either way.

Suits against companies precedent for later cases
Sure, many people think that it is a joke. Gun makers are not seriously being held responsible for gun related
crimes,right?
Nope, it's true. If I am the victim of a gun crime, during which I am shot and live, I can (and should) sue the person who shot me. If I am shot and die, then my family can (and, I hope, will) sue the person who shot me.
But also, with recent legal precedent, I have the right to sue gun makers. Think of it as one of the greatest class-action suits of all time. After

a11; it was their product that enabled my injury or death.
Compound this with cigarette makers that are held responsible for people who develop health problems from smoking, and things can get messy.
States successfully have reached court rulings against tobacco companies, and there even was a successful class action suit by former smokers against the cigarette giants.
This could be the break that I've been looking for.
I just received a speeding ticket in Iowa. When the trooper pulled me over, he asked whether I knew I was going 98 mph. I had to honestly reply that I didn't. The speedometer on my '88 Chevy Nova stops at 85.
The trooper was as surprised as I was that my little hoopty could reach that relative warp speed. It was unfortunate my speedometer didn't have another 13 tickmarks on it.
He wrote the ticket anyway
But, following the reasoning behind the gun makers/tobacco producers' suit, am I really responsible for having a heavy foot?
My car was capable of breaking the law. Furthermore, my car is a potential threat to my health or life, similar to cigarettes. It also is a potential threat to the health or life of every other person on the road or near it, similar to a gun. What really is all that different?
I can guarantee that studies connecting health problems to be hit by a car are more conclusive than those connecting health problems to second-hand smoke.
I think that General Motors (and Toyota — the ones who actually built my car) should have to pay the $126.36 fine, take my $100 driver's improvement class, and assume my one-year probation in the state of Iowa.
(
After all, it is not my fault.
The Nova is a defective product because it cannot keep its relative speed under the legal limit. Tricycles have been recalled for lesser threats to life and health. It was the car that was breaking the speed limit, not me. Furthermore, the seat belts (and the airbag, if I had one) lured me into the same false sense of security as low tar cigarettes and safety trigger locks.
What would have happened if I drove drunk and hurt someone? Would Coors be responsible for inhibiting my ability to drive? It was the $1.50 Coors Light Draws that made me the intoxicated driver.
I am looking forward to seeing more gun makers get sued. Cigarette makers too.
Can't wait until scissor makers get sued for people who run with them. Maybe I should change my major to pre-law.

Commission to lift Lawrence tenants with city housing
By Jamie Knodel
jknodel@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Some Lawrence officials are hoping that new city-owned housing will give residents the boost they need to establish themselves as good tenants.
At last night's Lawrence City Commission meeting, commissioners unanimously approved $128,000 to purchase buildings that can be used as transitional housing. The money will come from a Community Development Block Grant.
"We are hoping to give people in distress a chance to get on their feet," said Lynn Goodell, director of housing and neighborhood development.
In 1998, the commission accepted a plan for the grant and said the money must be used for either transitional housing or to purchase a building that would contain two of Lawrence's existing housing centers.
Goodell said the two agencies that were attempting to receive the grant money were Project Acceptance, a user-run house that is rented to mentally ill adults, and the Community Drop In Center, an agency that provides food, peer counseling and other services to the homeless.
"We set out criteria for the agencies to be partners, but we have reached a point where neither agency can meet the requirements." Goodell said.
The city commission outlined criteria last year and said the agencies must be able to support
a full-time professional administrator.
At last night's meeting, Mike Wilden, city manager, said the Housing and Neighborhood Development committee already had approved the grant money to he sent on transitional housing.
Helping individuals find transitional housing was the second phase in the committee's steps to better housing.
"After an individual completes an emergency housing program, they need some place to stay," Wildgen said. "That's where transitional housing comes in." Goodell said the group would look for a duplex to purchase as transitional housing.
After much discussion about the definition of a plat — which is how the county divides land to record ownership — commissioners agreed the way plates were written should be revised. They agreed that a proposed Dillons project on Wakarusa and West Sixth streets should not be penalized for the lack of clarity.
"We should look into solving the language problems before we run into this again." Commissioner Erv Hodges said. "But we should get this project on the road."
Commissioners approved the agreement that Westgate L.C., owners of the land, submitted.
Commissioners also approved an ordinance for the drinking establishment of Los Amigos, 508 Locust St. The bar has a 1:00 a.m. cut-off time for serving alcohol and a 1:30 a.m. closing time.

Bridge lovers play champion hand
Professors post win at Canada card tourney
By Chris Hopkins
chopkins@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
Two lifelong bridge players did their parents proud during spring break.
James Gunn, professor Emeritus of English, and Harry Shaffer, professor Emeritus of economics and of Russian and East European studies, won the North American Bridge Championship March 18-29 in Vancouver.
Bridge championship. Despite a background in bridge that began in their childhood years, neither professor has played in a bridge tournament in the past two decades.
"I started playing the game when I was 10 years old," Shaffer said. "My mother owned bridge clubs in Vienna and New York."
Gunn said his parents put cards in his hand as soon as he could sit at a table. He played bridge with his father and won several tournaments but hadn't played in a tournament since the 1950s.
Instead, he played every day during his lunch hour. Shaffer also hadn't played in a tournament in at least 25 years, which he said was because of his other important obligations—his wife and daughter.
Bridge is a card game in which the deck is dealt out to four players divided into two teams. The players bid on how many cards they think they can win and play out the hand to see if they can make their bid. Players win cards, or tricks, by having the highest card in the suit that the first player has laid down.
Shaffer said that bridge was comparable to

chess and enjoyable because of the complexity and strategy needed to win.
"It's a real mental challenge to get the best out of your hand," he said.
Shaffer said that Gunn was better than he and that Gunn had been the best bridge player in the area for the past 25 years.
"Harry is subject to exaggeration sometimes," Gunn said, laughing.
Duplicate bridge, which is what they played at the tournament, eliminated luck from the game. Each table of two teams receives the same hands of cards. Pairs are graded on how well they do compared to other teams. In regular bridge, players are dealt random cards and win the game by collecting as many tricks as possible.
Shaffer and Gunn earned an expenses-paid trip to the national tournament in Vancouver after they finished second in a Kansas City tournament.

The pair played in Flight C, the lowest-level tournament because they hadn't earned enough master points, which are gained by winning tournaments and which advance players to a higher level.
They played well in their first round at Vancouver, becoming one of 28 pairs to advance from the original 72 entered. They continued in the tournament and won with 432.41 points.
Shaffer estimated that he and Gunn had played more than 300 games throughout the tournament.
Although Shaffer and Gunn beat their closest opponents by 19 points — which they were told was pretty good — Shaffer thought that they could have done better.
Shaffer said the pair would try to defend the title but only if the regional qualifying tournament was close to home.
"The only places we ever go to play are
Lawrence. Toecka and Kansas City." Shaffer said.
While Gunn, Shaffer and members of the Lawrence Duplicate Bridge Club were happy with the victory, Gunn said one person was discontent with their prizes.
"All I got was some master points, and my wife said 'They didn't give you a trophy or a certificate or anything?'" Gunn said.

NATO rejects Milosevic's cease-fire
Milosevic to honor Orthodox Easter
The Associated Press
BELGRADE. Yugoslavia
Yugoslav President Slobodan Milosevic declared a unilateral ceasefire yesterday in his campaign to crush rebels in Kosovo, saying he wanted to honor the Orthodox Easter holiday this weekend. Western leaders called the move a sham and pledged to press ahead with air strikes.
Moments after the cease-fire took effect at 1 p.m., air-raid sirens wailed in Belgrade, heralding new NATO attacks.
At least six explosions could be heard late yesterday in the direction of the Batajnica military airport just north of Belgrade, and tracer rounds from anti-aircraft were seen in the night sky.
Yugoslav television stations reported further attacks last night around the Kosovo capital of Pristina; at Uzice, 75 miles south-west of Belgrade; near Kraljevo, 75 miles south of Belgrade; and at Pancevo and Cacak, two industrial towns. U.S. officials say a munitions plant is located at Cacak.
Another missile struck a residential district in Podgorica, capital of the tiny Yugoslav republic Montenegro. There were no injuries, but several buildings were damaged, according to Associated Press reporters on the scene.
The Yugoslav cease-fire declaration was clearly aimed at staving off further NATO attacks and at presenting Milosevic's government as a champion of peace.
President Clinton and NATO insisted that half-measures would not end the NATO air campaign that began March 24, and British Prime Minister Tony Blair's office said Milosevic's announced truce hadn't gone very far.
A rebel spokesman also rejected the cease-fire, which was announced on Belgrade television stations and said the only way the
group would agree to a truce would be if NATO troops enforced it.
The statement also pledged that the government would work for the return of ethnic Albanian refugees. However, it wasn't clear if that meant an

immediate halt to military actions forcing them to flee.
Milosevic: Called for NATO to stop the air strikes
Russia alone welcomed the ceasefire. "Any peace initiative must be useful," spokesman Dmitry Yakushkin quoted President Boris Yeltsin as saying.
On the refugee front, NATO nations and others rushed in tons of aid yesterday for the 400,000 ethnic Albanians who have been driven out of Kosovo and into poor neighboring states.
Armies of aid workers and soldiers set up row upon row of military tents and latrines for the refugees, while aid flights clogged nearby airports, including the one at Tirana, the capital of Albania. Some doctors were on hand, but the squalid conditions and lack of sanitation left many refugees sick with diarrhea.
meanwhile, the Clinton administration announced that its naval base at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, would be a temporary "safe haven" for up to 20,000 Kosovar refugees in the coming days.
in its statement, the Yugoslav leadership said the cessation of hostilities against the ethnic Albanian Kosovo Liberation Army in advance of Sunday's Orthodox Easter was a "gesture of good will."
Pan Am bombing suspects arraigned
Two Libyan men face life sentences in a Scottish prison
The Associated Press
CAMP ZEIST, Netherlands — One by one, the names of all 270 victims of the 1988 Pan Am jet explosion were read aloud yesterday to two Libyan suspects charged with planting the suitcase bomb that ripped the plane apart.
Upped in the market Suspected former intelligence agents Abdel Basset Ali al-Megrahi and Lamen Khalifa Flimah were fingerprinted, photographed and gave DNA samples yesterday, one day after Libya surrendered them for trial in the Netherlands under Scottish law.
The two men were then separately arraigned in Arabic and English on charges contained in a 1991 U.S.-British indictment accusing them of bombing Flight 104
over Lockerbie, Scotland, on Dec.
21, 1988.
21. 1980 The suspects said nothing more than "yes" in Arabic when asked to confirm their names. They will have a chance to enter a plea when the trial begins.
Names of each of the victims — including 189 Americans — were read aloud to the men at Camp Zeist, a deserted U.S. airbase 30 miles southeast of Amsterdam, where the trial will be held, said Susan Stewart, chief spokeswoman for Scotland's government.
Al-Megrah, 46, and Fhimah, 42 are charged with murder, conspiracy to commit murder and violations of international aviation security laws. Scottish authorities now have until April 15 to formally commit them to trial before three Scottish High Court judges.
Scotland Under Scottish law, their trial should start 110 days later. However, lawyers for the two men were expected to request an extension to give them more time to prepare
their defense, which could delay the trial's start by six months to a year, Stewart said.
Once the trial gets under way, it is expected to take a year or longer. If convicted, the suspects — both of whom say they are innocent — will serve their sentences in Glasgow's Barlinnie jail, Scotland's highest-security prison.
They face up to life imprisonment. Scotland has no death penalty.
pentury In an attempt to reproduce the conditions they would face in Scotland, the two men were held overnight in temporary cells constructed to resemble the ones inside a Scottish police station.
They were expected to be moved later to the holding cells where they will stay for the duration of the trial. The two will have access to an exercise room and a prayer room complete with a compass to help them face east, toward Mecca in Saudi Arabia, the holy city Muslims to turn when they pray

The Scots even hung a sign renaming the airbase "Her Majesty's Prison, Zeist."

Gun-ban removal rejected by Missouri
Measure defeated by 4 percentage points
JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. — Missourians rejected an attempt Tuesday to lift a ban on concealed guns that dated to the era of Jesse James.
With 95 percent of the vote counted, Proposition B, which would have lifted the ban, was opposed by 52 percent or 643,117 of voters and supported by 48 percent or 589,821 voters.
The vote marked the first time a state put the question of concealed weapons to the voters. Thirty-one other states allow citizens to carry concealed guns, but those measures were enacted by legislators.
Proposition B resulted from failed yearly attempts by progn lawmakers to pass a concealed-weapons law against a threatened veto by Democratic Gov. Mel Carnahan.
The National Rifle Association almost single-handedly bankrolled the campaign for Proposition B — providing more than $3.7 million, well over 95 percent of the money behind the measure — in what was viewed as an important test of gun sentiment in the heartland.
"Since this is the first time it's ever been put to a vote, both sides on this issue are going to learn a tremendous amount," said Fred Myers, a leader of the Proposition B campaign. "This will be a race that political scientists and pundits will mull for years because it's breaking such new ground."
Supporters said allowing law-abiding people to pack guns would keep the criminals guessing.
"The honest people of this state need to be able to defend themselves while going from their homes to their businesses," Greg Jeffrey, a spokesman for the Proposition B campaign.
The other side received just one-fourth the funding but had help from Hillary Rodham Clinton — who recorded a telemarketing message targeted at women. The first lady said Proposition B was too dangerous for Missouri families.
St. Louis County Prosecutor Robert McCulloch was among the law enforcement officers who feared the measure would court trouble
"We don't want to be going back to the old Wild West days with everyone wearing a gun," he said.
James, the Wild West's most notorious outlaw, was a native of Kearney, Mo. Missouri banned concealed weapons in a crackdown on gunslings in 1875, seven years before James was shot to death in St. Joseph, Mo., by a member of his gang.
According to Proposition B, state residents will need a second permit to carry a concealed weapon.
Applicants will have to undergo criminal and mental health background checks, take at least 12 hours of state-approved training and have no violent offenses on their records for at least five years.
Chinese premier to visit U.S. despite strained relationship
Rongji hopes to seal China's membership in trade organization
The Associated Press.
WASHINGTON — Chinese Premier Zhu Rongji's visit to the United States comes at a time of particularly tense relations between Beijing and Washington, including a stark dispute about the bombing of Yugoslavia.
China has called for an immediate halt to the NATO airstrikes. Chinese leaders even considered postponing Zhu's six-city, nine-day visit that was beginning today in Los Angeles.
Even so, Zhu still hopes to close a deal with the Clinton administration to allow Beijing to join the World Trade Organization, which regulates international trade, after 13 years of trying.
In advance of his coming to Washington tomorrow, U.S. and Chinese trade negotiators worked furiously to try to strike a deal that could be announced during the visit.
Zhu also will visit Denver, Chicago, New York and Boston, courting the political and business elite at each stop. He may observe financial markets, possibly the New York Stock Exchange and the Chicago Board of Trade.
China hopes to attract the foreign investment needed to help its slowing economy.
While in Washington, Zhu was to dine with Clinton tomorrow evening, hold meetings with officials of the World Bank and International Monetary Fund and meet on Friday with a handful of lawmakers back early from the two-week congressional recess.
The recent Communist Party-ordered crackdown on dissidents who formed an opposition party helped solidify anti-China sentiment in Congress.
In an interview published in yesterday's editions of the Wall Street Journal, Zhu asserted that the administration recently had backed away from closing a deal
In school, it will not be an "Of course," it will not be an easy task." Zhu told reporters. "But will go anyway."
on trade "due to pressure from Congress."
Congress is still in its spring recess — probably sparing Zhu the harshest of criticism of China's human-rights record while he is here.
we want to work with the premier, we want to advance our national interests to work with China where we can on areas of interest," said James P. Rubin, the State Department spokesman. He cited recent developments in North Korea, India and Pakistan's nuclear programs and international terrorism.
As to China's membership in the WTO, Rubin said, "If the Chinese meet the objective criteria, we would like to see a situation where our exporters can get access to the Chinese market."
not only are the meetings being elipsed by the bombing campaign in Yugoslavia, but the NATO airstrikes have sourced the atmosphere for the visit.
China has been trying to join the WTO and its predecessor, the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade, since 1986.
Clinton wants added hate law protection
President orders colleges to report campus hate crimes
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Decrying "the persistence of old, even primitive hatreds," President Clinton today asked Congress to expand federal hate crime laws to include offenses based on sexual orientation.
The president also directed the departments of Education and Justice to collect and periodically publish data on hate crimes at colleges, including crime statistics as well as surveys on students' racial attitudes.
Clinton linked his announcement to the crisis in Kosovo, where hundreds of thousands of people are being killed or forced out by Serb authorities because they are ethnic Albanians. He said all Americans should resist such destructive, biased attitudes because they imperil the country's future.
imperfect the country.
"We have to be, in the United States, absolutely resolute about this," Clinton said. "Our diversity is a godsend for us. The number one security threat to that is the persistence of old, even primitive hatreds."
Clinton endorsed a public-private partnership designed to educate middle school students against intolerance. The partnership will involve AT&T, Court TV, Cable in the Classroom, the National Middle Schools Association and the Anti-Defamation League working with the Justice and Education departments to develop curricula to combat intolerance.
Clinton announced the initiatives yesterday in a Roosevelt Room ceremony with religious, education and law enforcement leaders who said the United States cannot get so caught up in fighting the crisis in Kosovo that it neglects prejudice in this country.
Clinton issued an appeal for greater acceptance of gay people, saying it is wrong to refuse them a normal life based on attitudes "where you always get to think a little better of yourself because you've got someone you can dehumanize."
"That's really what this whole issue with gays is today in America," Clinton said. "We're talking about whether people have a right, if they show up and work hard and obey the law and are good citizens, to pursue their lives in dignity, free of fear."
In addition, Clinton directed the Justice and Education depart
ments to require that college campuses provide specific information about hate crimes in the campus crime statistics they provide to law enforcement each year.
Clinton's hate crimes legislation died in committee last year in the House and Senate. The initiative was reintroduced last month by a bipartisan group of lawmakers that included Sen. Edward M. Kennedy, D-Mass, and Sen. Arlen Specter, R.Pa., and Rep. John Conyers, D.Mich., and Rep. Cobnie Morella, R.Md.
According to the bill, current law would be expanded so the Justice Department could prosecute crimes based on a person's sex, sexual orientation or disability. Now, the statute only covers crimes based on race, color, religion or national origin.
The bill also would make federal prosecution of hate crimes easier. Current law limits prosecution to situations where the victim is targeted for engaging in certain federally protected activities such as serving on a jury, voting or attending public school.
More than 40 states have hate crimes laws but only 21 cover sexual orientation, 22 cover gender and 21 cover disability.

Silverchair matures with new album
By Matt Cox Kansan music boy

Kansan Rating: B+
Emotion Sickness, a lesser candidate for a radio single, is an impressive epic that intertwines classical music and rock. The song begins the album with a powerful string arrangement that seems to mock the
least, the angst seems to be Silie: chair's own and not a music fashion statement. The music is a far step forward from the previous work, with a refined range of rock from puppy love stuff to stuff penetrating the hard-core genre.
Anthem for the Year 2000 is Silverchair's current single heading toward hot rotation on 105.9 the Lazer. The song revolves around the political lyrics, Lead singer/songwriter/guitarist Daniel Johns sings, "We are the youth. We'll take your fascism away." Johns attempts to point out that his generation (the post Gen-X-ers) aren't the lazy pessimists that politicians project they are. The intensity of the guitars and bass accent the addicting rhythm of
typical rock guitar part. The guitar then comes in and quietens the strings, while Johns sweetly sings the melody that seems to float in the
air. Then the strings come swinging back in to emphasize the heightening tension of the music. The music then takes on a gothic piano and string arrangement, building the song further until the hard-edged guitars explode. It's Mozart doing modern rock.
The string arrangements don't work as well in Black Entangled Heart. The song is an aggravated love song. The music is guitar noise with very tight violins and cellos and an annoying harp lead that resembles cheesy fantasy movies. It doesn't work.
The only other problematic song is *Dearest Helps!*. No matter how hard the song tries, it just can't shake the fact that its tone is dangerously close
to Nirvana's Come as You Are. The verse uses the same drum, guitar and vocal effects as the
and vocal effects as the
late Kurt Cobain's old single.
That fact nea lly ruins the song.
Ana's Song is the most unpredictable tune. Just when you think the acoustic progressiveness and ironic lyrics will prevail, the chorus takes a completely different direction to that of an '80s rock love song. When it's time to sing the second
SILVERCHAIR
NEON BALLROOM
verse, Johns doesn't revert to the first verse format but rather uses electric guitars in a hard modern way. The lyrics offer an interesting perspective on being a slave to love. John sings, "Open fire on the needs designed on my knees for you."
Spawn Again follows Ana's Song with an all-out Korn like shout fest. Unlike many other core artists, the lyrics are understandable and the
After Silverchair gets that out of its system, a love song, *Miss You Love*, ensues. This could easily cross over many radio charts, scoring them a Top-40 spot. The melody is typical of love songs that have come and gone. The song is nothing new in modern rock world, but it's something not expected from this band.
Overall, the album is a solid variety of the modern rock spectrum, offering innovation and color to the genre.

Plan to steal sexual toys blows up in man's face
Oddities
MARTINSBURG, W.Va. — A plan to nab blowup dolls has blown up in the face of a man accused of robbery.
John Capriotti, 22, was charged with stealing several blowup dolls and other sexual devices from Big Al's Movie Outlet and then leading police on a short chase early Saturday.
A State Police trooper watched Capriotti's car spin out of the Route 11 plaza, where the video store is located, and followed it.
Police said he started tossing the dolls out of his window.
Capriotti was charged with breaking and entering, speeding, failure to yield to an emergency vehicle, driving with a suspended license and not wearing a seat belt.
The dolls were recovered and a Big AI's employee identified them as property of the store.
Australian strikes it rich with 56-pound discovery

LOS ANGELES—Nice rock mate.
LOS ANGELES - Nice rock, mate.
A 56-pound chunk of metal belonging to an Australian prospector is 80 percent to 90 percent high-purity gold. University of Southern California scientists said Monday.
The nugget was found in western Australia by a man who wanted to remain anonymous. The nugget is worth between $250,000 to $300,000 if melted down, said Joel Forman, an appraiser representing the prospector.
A tiny flake removed from its surface was between 92.3 percent to 93 percent gold, with the remainder consisting of silver, according to USC. "It's so bright that you think it can't be real, but then, 56 pounds of real gold looks fake," said Jean Morrison, USC associate professor of earth sciences.
The nugget is scheduled to be auctioned at Sotheby's in June.
Rice, beans, dry ice mixture explodes in man's garage
FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. — Rice and beans can be an explosive mixture in their own right. Adding dry ice does't exactly help. Steve Tate's roof is proof.
Tate's garage was damaged and a hole blown through his roof after a mixture of beans and rice he包装 with dry ice exploded.
Officials wouldn't say why Tate wanted to store the food in a group of 6-foot-long pipes near his home in Berryville, Ark., 140 miles northwest of Little Rock. Tate refused comment.
Tate called 911 Saturday afternoon after one of the pipes exploded.
The house was evacuated and the neighborhood partially was cleared.
"Dry ice is just frozen CO2 (carbon dioxide)," Jackson said, "so when you confine it, it has no place to go. The gas pressure just built up and it exploded, blowing a hole in the roof."

The best of both worlds
Khaled Soitullah and his wife Rachel have been married for more than three years. The husband and wife say that despite their many cultural differences, it is their shared interests and similarities that keep their marriage strong.

shared in similarities than their marriage strong.
story by sharmista barat • photos by rachel marta orr
Thuy Pham, a graduate student from Vietnam, said she won't kiss her groom Andy Karafa when she gets married next June, a traditional practice her future mother-in-law wants her to comply with.
kachel Saifullah, a Hays senior, said she felt neglected when her husband Khaled Saifullah, who is from Bangladesh, did not always respond to her affectionate, "I love you, honey." Khaled is puzzled that she needs to be verbally reassured.
Robert Rodriguez, an Argentinean-American, craved hamburgers and French fries when he went to his wife's home in Ukraine. Irina Rodriguez, his wife and a graduate student, years for the farm-fresh lettuce of her native home.
These are a few of the University of Kansas' culture-clash couples who have been united in love and marriage but who must confront numerous differences involving religion, food, language, lifestyle and philosophy.
Clashing cultures
Khaled encountered his parents' prejudices against Western culture when he decided to marry Rachel. Khaled said that his father, an orthodox Muslim, vehemently opposed his decision to marry a Christian.
His mother's mental picture of an American woman hardly fit into the frame of a traditional, subservient Bangladeshi daughter-in-law.
"The most difficult job was convincing my mother, who had had the least exposure to Western culture," Khaled said.
"When I visited Khaled's family in Bangladesh, I realized that she wanted a daughter-in-law to talk to." Rachel said.
Moreover, what Khaled's mother had read about the high divorce rates in the United States made things worse, Rachel said.
Khaled said he was happy that instead of being chained down by religious and cultural inhibitions, they were married according to law with a judge presiding.
"Men often took the pretext of religion and culture to hide their narrow-mindedness," Khaled said.
Khaled said that meaningful relationships develop if individuals have the capacity to overcome their rigid beliefs and change themselves.
Nomi Redding, a clinical social worker and family therapist, identified two factors upon which the success of any relationship depends, especially an intercultural one: emotional maturity and stress level.
Redding said that the stress level at different points of an individual's life affect the way he or she perceive things. If the stress level is lower, the individuals are more likely to appreciate the differences and find compatibility, she said.
"If the individuals are not mature enough, the differences between them gets magnified, aggravated," she said. "If you are sure of yourself, of who you are, you can appreciate the differences which otherwise would have seemed as a threat."
Different cultural groups have different modes of interacting and showing love and commitment towards each other.
Rachael need a response to her affectionate greetings is a good example.
"American women want a lot of attention," Khaled said, joking.
Showing his love for Rachel would mean taking her out to dinner, buying her flowers
and cards and occasionally, even a gold ring, Khaled said.
"Asian culture generally does not support showing affection as openly as in the Western world. Love is something that is implied rather than directly expressed," he said.
kachel's growing interaction with Bangladeshi culture has helped her to understand how the role of women differs from society to society.
Rachel said she believed that intercultural marriages demanded more understanding and acceptance of differences than marriages between two people coming from similar backgrounds. She said that her lack of knowledge about the Bangladeshi culture made it hard for her to tell if Khaled's protectiveness toward her was because of his caring nature or a trait he inherited from the male-dominated society in Bangladesh.
"Women in Bangladesh are a lot more dependent on their male counterparts, and they do not go out as freely as women do here," she said. "The mother figure is a dominant personality in an American family, while in Bangladesh, the focus is on the father figure."
Rachel said that she and Khaled have adopted what is best in the two cultures and formed a code that is a compromise between an American and a Bangladeshi family. Khaled makes the important decisions, but she, too, has her say. Rachel said.
Meeting in the middle
sylvia Hallowell, clinical social worker and a former KU student said, "I try to figure out whether the difference is more in the culture or the human nature between the couples."
Hallowell said that recognizing the differences and coping with them is crucial to any healthy relationship.
Redding said that the differences that arise in a cross-cultural relationship are based more on personal differences rather than cultural issues.
"People who grow up in the same town, same area can have differences. The differences that an inter-cultural couple has can be true for any other couple, both of whom come from the same cultural background," she said.
Hallowell said that pre-marriage courses and interaction were two of the most crucial factors that could make an intercultural marriage click.
Thuy Pham and Andy Karafa find that their interaction in the six years that they have known each other has helped them to deal with several of their differences.
"At first, Andy wanted to continue with the tradition because it would make his parents happy," Pham said, "Much as I want my in-laws to participate in the wedding, kissing in front of everybody just makes me feel very uncomfortable."
Pham said that there were some American traditions that offended her. Her Vietnamese upbringing made her reluctant to kiss her groom on her wedding day because public displays of affection were not common in Vietnam. This upset her mother-in-law to be.
Andy's understanding of Vietnamese culture helped Andy put himself in Pham's shoes.
*He gave me his support to convince his
mother that we will not be kissing at the reception," Pham said.
With more foreign students coming to the University each year, its community is developing into a melting pot of different cultures.
The Cross Cultural Relationships program tried to provide students an opportunity to share experiences and support one another, said Daphne Johnston, formerly interim, associate and assistant director in the Office of International Student Services for 10 years. She headed the program, a registered KU student group during 1992-94.
ine group gradually dissipated as the member moved away from the University. Johnston said that the University presently has no program to help the students with cross-cultural relationships.
Celebrating differences
When Robert Rodriguez, an Argentinean American and his wife Irina, a Ukrainian, met each other at Ekdahl Dining Commons, they were strangers to each other's cultural backgrounds.
"When we were dating, Irina expected certain gentleman-like behavior from me, such as holding open the door for her and letting her pass through first," Robert said.
Initially, her expectations appeared strange to Robert, who was more accustomed to the American notion that treats both sexes equally, he said.
Robert had difficulty reciprocating Irina's family's affection when he visited them in Ukraine in the spring of 1996. Not only was language a barrier, but his inability to adjust to Ukrainian cuisine prevented him from participating fully in Irina's family parties and reunions.
Irina said she regrets not being able to share jokes or talk about her favorite childhood TV shows with Robert — things that could only be understood by learning her language. To bridge the gap between them created by the culture clash, Robert is taking Russian courses to be able to share some of Irina's experiences.
"The differences are what make things more challenging and interesting and therefore, special," Irina said.
Accepting the challenge and making an effort to fully participate in the experiences of one's soulmate can take a marriage a long way, she said.
way. Irina and Robert said that they find themselves fortunate to have families who have been supportive.
"The hospitable and social Argentinean culture reminds me of my own people. I feel a lot closer to it than American culture." Irian said.
Redding said that having supportive families and friends helps the couples to maintain continuous ties with their cultures and overcome the sense of isolation.
"Any marriage requires a lot of understanding and give-and-take," Hallowell said. "Greater the difference, greater is the challenge and sooner do the couples realize that they have an even greater motivation to deal with the challenge."

The Kansas baseball team will be welcoming a team from the Missouri Valley Conference to town today for a doubleheader. Fortunately for the Jayhawks, 10-22 overall and 4-14 in Big 12 play, that team is Southwest Missouri State.
The first game will begin at 2 p.m. and is scheduled to last nine innings. The second game will begin shortly after the first game is finished and is scheduled to last seven innings.
The Bears currently are ranked in the top 30, own a 19-7 record and have won five straight games.
Kansas coach Bobby Randall
said he was aware that the Bears were a good hitting team and that they would be well prepared.
"They're a team that can really score some runs," Randall said. "They hit the ball well and are always fighting for the Missouri Valley Conference crown."
Fighting for the Jayhawks today will be senior Chris Williams. Williams has been erratic on the mound for the Jayhawks this season. His record stands at 0-6, but this does not indicate how well he has pitched.
Senior leftfielder Chad King said that the seniors needed to step up during this game.
Despite Williams' struggles, his start this afternoon will be his 65th career appearance. This ranks him fifth in Kansas
history as a starting pitcher. Today's game will move him within two appearances of fourth place.
The doubleheader comes as a result of poor weather early in the year. The teams had originally scheduled a home and home series, but when it was the Jayhawks' turn to travel to Springfield, Mo., inclement weather caused the game to be canceled.
Randall said the team needed to play well in all aspects to win.
"There's been times when we've played well and lost and there have been times where we played poor and lost," he said. "We're so young that we have to play well in all facets of the game to win."

Tennis love spurs recognition, wins
Senior player Uribe prospers for Kansas
By Melinda Weaver

Kansan sportswriter
Luis Uribe's powerful serve and strong return have launched him into elite status this season — as he climbs to the top of the Kansas tennis record books.
After starting the 1998 fall season unranked, Uribe had 16 wins to propel him toward a Kansas record.
No. 21 Uribe, Queretaro, Mexico,
senior, has 102 singles victories,
which is fourth in Kansas history.
He also has 91 doubles victories,
which is fifth in Kansas history.
Ortege, who is now 23-9, was one of four players nationwide to advance to round 16 in the two Fall 1998 Intercollegiate Tennis Association Grand Slam Tournaments. He won the Region V singles championship and took the Region V doubles championship with sophomore Ed Dus.
a seven-game win streak at the end of the fall season improved his ranking to No. 9 in the country.
"He's very talented," said Coach Mark Riley. "He's got all the shots. He doesn't have any glaring weaknesses. He can play with power and finesse. If he's ready to play, he can be outstanding. He's proven that."
As one of two seniors on a young Kansas team, Uribe has had to step into a leadership position.
nie's a good friend and a good leader at the same time," said Rodrigo Echagaray, fellow teammate and freshman. "He doesn't confuse the two roles. He is a good friend, but if he thinks you are doing something wrong, he will tell you and try to help you."
Uribe said his advice comes from experience, acknowledging that his game has changed since his first year on the team.
"My game has improved a lot since I was a freshman," Uribe said. "I'm a completely different player. I'm more mature, and I'm stronger — mentally and physically."
Uribe began playing tennis with his parents in the mornings when he was 4 years old. His grandfather played tennis and encouraged the whole family to become involved.
"Since I was born, I have been on a tennis court," he said. "My family never pressured me to compete, but I liked it. I loved the competition."
Uribe did not take his first formal lesson until he was 6 years old, but by age 7, he had qualified for his first national juniors tournament.
He competed in these tournaments until he was 16 years old and had became one of the top three players in Mexico. He earned the right to represent his country in the World Junior Tournaments.
While his peers attended high school, Uribe traveled to Europe, South America, Asia and the United States, studying through correspondence.
"I got a lot of experience and the chance to be with professional players every day and see them compete in tournaments," Uribe said.

Hancock rolls with position changes
Football player has filled many roles for Hawks
By Michael T. Riggs sports@kansan.com
Kansan writerwriter
Who says normal is better?
Tanner Hancock certainly doesn't think so after his football career has taken so many strange turns.
Hancock originally joined the Kansas football team in 1996 as one of the hyped high school players in the state of Kansas. As a senior at Salina Central High School, Hancock became the first running back in the 6A or 5A classification to break the 2,000 yard barrier and was named The Associated Press High School Player of the Year in Kansas.
So where is Hancock this spring? Lining up at wide receiver, ready to make an impact as Kansas' next breakout receiver? Actually, Hancock can be found in the defensive backfield, trying to break through at a position that Coach Terry Allen calls one of the most competitive on the team.
After walking onto the Kansas football team and redshirting his freshman year. Hancock immediately was switched to wide receiver where he caught passes in each of the last two seasons.
But don't think Hancock is down on himself after the switch. In fact, he's enjoying himself on the other side of the ball.
The switch was not the doing of Allen or a member of his staff, it was Hancock who originally thought of the change.
"It was more Tanner's idea than ours." Allen said. "He wanted to give it a try."
Hancock originally was drawn to the
"I played in the defensive backfield a little bit in high school, so it's not completely new to me," Hancock said.
position in high school, where he played free safety when he wasn't carrying Salina Central to victory.
Although he played free safety in Salina, he will be switched to cornerback for the Javhaws.
"There are just a lot of techniques that I need to work on," Hancock said. "I've never played cornerback."
Allen said Hancock was learning the ropes quickly.
"He's doing a good enough job that he's competing to play over there," Allen said. "We'll continue with it and see."
Hancock brings more depth to an area that lost standout performers Michael Allen and Jamie Harris to graduation.

Commentary
Bowling team helps student with difficulty
Before we get started this week, I would like to give thanks to some great people out there.
To begin, I would like to thank the Kansas men's bowling team for helping out a sports columnist in trouble.
The guys, whose team is ranked among the top 16 bowling teams in the nation, gave me a ride to the nearest gas station.
I'm really thankful to the guys who stopped to help me out on the Kansas turnpike Saturday morning after my Camaro started hydroplaning on the slippery asphalt. I ended up slamming into a concrete median going backwards at 70 miles per hour.
The bowling team competes for the national championship April 21-24 in
Wichita. Coach
Mike Fine said the
team had a legitimate shot at winning the whole thing.
This is the first time the team has made the championship tournament since 1963. They're practicing every day to bring a championship trophy back to Lawrence.
YOU MAY BE A FIGHTING MAN.
Seth
Jones
sports@kansan.com
Good luck guys.
and when you're coming up on the 139- mile marker on the turnip, slow it down a little bit. It gets slippery when wet.
The other word of thanks goes out to my Dad, who lent me his 1999 Dodge Ram truck, while the Camaro is in the body shop. I promise I'll take care of your baby, Dad.
Now I'll finish this column in blurbs, but give me a break. I've got whiplash.
John Calipari, former Kansas assistant coach, Massachusetts head coach and New Jersey Nets head coach took his name out of the running for the vacancy left by Borm Stewart at Missouri. Too bad for us. A Calipari vs. Roy Williams game could have become a great rivalry.
Now former Duke assistant Quin Snyder has the job. This may mean that Mizzou will get some better players to sign to the Tiger bandwagon. Kareem Rush and Jason Kopono, who are both considering Missouri and are among the top 50 recruits in the nation, may see Missouri as a better choice now that Stewart is gone.
6.
But will Kansas fans shout "Sit down, Quin"? I sense a new cheer coming.
But there's one word that would describe Humphrey: mean.
Here's a guy that could play on my team any day. The question here is, how could anyone not get along with Oklahoma coach Kelvin Sampson?
Ryan Humphrey asked to be released from his scholarship at Oklahoma. Humphrey, a 6-foot-8 sophomore, averaged 11.1 points and 7.5 rebounds per game this past season. He averaged 2 blocks per game and compiled 119 blocks in his 63 games.
No one found the ball after he swatted it away from T.J. Pugh in Oklahoma. Rumor has it they're going to make an X-Files episode about where the ball eventually landed.
Maurice Evans asked to be released from his scholarship at Wichita State. Officials from WSU were said to have been acting very selectively to what colleges Evans may be released. In the future could we possibly be seeing Evans display his talent in the Big 12? I know they have an opening in Oklahoma.
Wanted: Spare Camaro parts. Send them to the sports desk addressed to me.

Soccer team to bypass war to play in Belgrade
"We've won many titles on the field. This will be a humanitarian title," said Dimitris Melissanidis, the president of AEK Athens.
AEK Athens was to leave Greece yesterday for its game against Partizan in the Yugoslavian capital.
— Chris Wristen
The Serbs welcomed the initiative, but they reportedly failed to give the Greek team any safety guarantees.
The Greek delegation, composed of 16 volunteer players, club officials and politicians, was to spend last night in Budapest, Hungary. They will set off by bus today, arriving in Belgrade shortly before the game.
"What guarantees can we require in a war region?" Melissanda asked.
Greeks have strongly objected to NATO air strikes against fellow Christian Orthodox Serbs, with whom they have friendly relations, and have held almost daily street protests around the country.
The game, which will last one hour, is to be played during the Orthodox Holy week in connection with an Easter break in the Greek soccer schedule.
Revenue from gate receipts and television coverage will be donated to Yugoslav humanitarian organizations.

Virginia football players face charges for fight
CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. — An Albemarle County grand jury indicted two Virginia football players on felony charges in connection with a campus brawl.
Senior defensive back Adrian Bumim was charged with two counts of malicious wounding and sophomore tailback Antoine Womack was charged with one count of malicious wounding. Another man, Kevin D. Cromartie, who isn't a Virginia student, was charged with one count of malicious wounding.
A hearing for the three was set for Aug. 11. Their attorneys said they would plead not guilty and request a jury trial. The charges stem from a Feb. 7 fight in which the three were among five people accused of beating Virginia students Jonathan Dean and Cabal Thornton.

Missouri likely to pick Duke assistant as new coach
John Calipari forgoes taking Missouri offer
The Associated Press
COLUMBIA, Mo. — Missouri appears poised to name Duke assistant Quin Snyder as its new head basketball coach.
Media reports said Snyder was meeting with Missouri athletic director Mike Alden yesterday in Kansas City. The school set a news conference for 10:30 a.m. today. No topic was given, but WDAF-TV in Kansas City reported that Snyder would be named.
Snyder, 32. is a former Duke player and has been an assistant coach with Mike Krzzyzewski the past four years. He first met with Alden in Detroit on Friday, one day after Norm Stewart retired as head coach after 32 years.
Snyder emerged as the leading candi.
date to take over Missouri's basketball program after former New Jersey Nets coach John Calipari took himself out of the running.
Tulsa head coach Bill Self also announced yesterday evening that he had withdrawn his name from consideration. Missouri assistant Kim Anderson was left as the only other candidate, besides Snyder, to be interviewed by Alden.
Alden said he wanted to move quickly in signing a coach. Today is the first day of the late signing period. Recruits can make written commitments to schools through May 15.
Calipari, notorious for his vitriolic attacks on players and respected for his coaching accomplishments, removed his name from consideration after talking with Alden and others on Saturday while visiting in laws.
Missouri officials had offered Calipart the job.
Callipari's agent, Craig Fenech, said
"He considered it pretty seriously but decided it wasn't the right fit for him at the time," Fenech said yesterday. "In the
end, he just wasn't prepared to pull the trigger. He doesn't know what he wants to do."
Calipari was fired by the Nets on March 15 after his team started
M
the season losing 17 of its first 20 games. Last year, the Nets qualified for the playoffs for the first time in four years but lost to the Chicago Bulls in the first round.
The Nets won 72 games and lost 112 in Calipari's two-plus seasons as head coach. He had two years remaining on a
five-year. $15 million contract.
He took over the University of Massachusetts in 1988 and won 10 games and lost 18 in his first season. The Minutemen did not have another losing season in Calliart's eight-year tenure.
Self said he made the decision to withdraw after meeting earlier yesterday with Missouri officials.
Callipart, a native of Moon, Pa., played college basketball at North Carolina-Wilmington and Clarion (Pa.), and was an assistant coach at Kansas from 1982 to 1985.
"I'm flattered by Missouri's interest in me," he said, "I believe that the Missouri coaching position is a good one, and I felt that I had to explore it for the welfare of my family. However, when it comes right down to it, the University of Tulsa is where I want to be."
Self has been head coach at Tulsa for two seasons and has won 42 and lost 22. His team defeated 16th-ranked College of Charleston in the first round of the NCAA tournament before losing to Duke.
Uribe leads men's tennis in NCAA hopes

"I learned from watching them play and seeing how they prepared for the match."
Continued from page 18
At 17, Uribe finished his Juniors competitions and decided to go to college
"I wasn't mature enough to play professionally, and I wanted a degree,' Uribe said. "I also wanted to go to college to improve my tennis and make the jump to the pros."
Uribe decided to attend the University of Kansas because there were two other Mexicans on the team who he knew from competitions.
Uribe immediately made an impact at Kansas and was named Region V Freshman of the Year. Since then, he has remained consistent and has received similar honors.
His most memorable moment as a Jayhawk came in his freshman season when he and former teammate Fernando Sierra defeated the Georgia doubles team in front
of the Georgia home crowd in the first round of the NCAA tournament.
Uribe said he hoped this season would provide him with an even more memorable moment. His season goals include earning All-America honors in the singles and doubles classifications and advancing to the semifinals of the NCAA tournament.
He said he also hoped to help his team qualify for the NCAA tournament.
Senior teammate Kenny Powell said Uribe helped the team succeed by providing strong leadership for the younger players
"He leads by example." Powell said. "He's a very talented player He is very strong in both singles and doubles, and he brings experience to the team."
After Uribe finishes his final year, he plans to try professional tennis before pursuing a career in architecture.

Hancock to bring depth to defensive backfield
Continued from page 1B
Even though Andrew Davison and Chad Coellner both received starting assignments last season, Allen said the secondary was wide open.
The mix of newcomers like Hancock and seniors like free safety Greg Erb will aid
a position that Allen said needs some work.
"We've got a lot of new people that are picking up pretty well," Erb said. "We have a lot of work to do, but we're coming together."
On top of the announcement of Hancock's and offensive lineman Ben Coleman's
position changes, Allen said four more players would be changing positions.
Former defensive back Ocasio Coffield will move to linebacker, former linebacker Kevin Toles will move to wide receiver, former running back Matt Jordan will move to wide receiver, and

Transfer player will not return
By Michael T. Rigg sports@kansan.com Kansan sportswriter
Ryan Brock officially became the man who never returned, Kansas football coach Terry Allen said yesterday.
Yesterday, those hopes were dashed.
EVERYDAY, those hopes were dashed.
"I talked to him, and I don't think it's going to happen," Allen said. "I guess the ship has been sunk. I don't expect him back."
Reportedly suffering from homesickness, Brock, a junior college transfer defensive lineman from Riverside, Calif., never returned from spring break. Allen and the rest of his staff had been in contact with Brock in the weeks after spring break and had hoped to coax him back to Kansas.
Allen said Brock had attended the first nine weeks of classes after transferring from San Bernadino Community College during the semester break and had become homesick.
"I think it was just a case of a California kid who had a girlfriend and became disenchanted with the middle of Kansas." Allen said.
Brock is in a different situation than the last time he talked to reporters Feb. 3. At the press conference to announce the 1999 signing class, Brock was upbeat about his situation at Kansas.
"it's going to be a good season," Brock said that day. "I know it's early, but there's a really good spirit and atmosphere surrounding the football team."
Apparently, his attitude has changed. Brock was one of seven junior college recruits for the Jayhawks and was going to be counted on to help Kansas stop the run.
"Obviously, it's disappointing," Allen said. "Defensive line) is an area of need with us, but it's like anything else: You hit or you miss."
Brock, who said through Allen that he has no comment on the issue, may soon see his college football career in jeopardy.
Having already signed a national letter of intent with the Jayhawks, Brock must get a release from the letter before playing for another school. Allen is unsure whether that release will be granted.
"It a tough situation for him," Allen said. "He falls under some real sanctions with liability after signing a letter of intent. His options are limited."
If Brock is granted a release from his letter of intent, he will have one year of eligibility left after sitting out the one year that the NCAA requires for all transfer students. Brock also can appeal the NCAA to get his letter of intent nullified, but Allen said the chances Brock's appeal would succeed were minimal.
Brock also will face academic difficulty if he did not withdraw from his classes by the University mandated deadline, which was Monday. However, Brock can still petition his teachers to withdraw.

Final baseball season begins at revolutionary, aging Astrodome
Astros will leave Houston landmark after 34 years of play
The Associated Press
HOUSTON — They could have used shovels for the groundbreaking, but this called for Texas flair.
The guests fired Colt.45 pistols into a vacant lot, marking the start of Harris County Domed Stadium, otherwise known as the Astrodome.
The man behind the project. Judge Roy Hofheinz, modestly suggested the stadium be dubbed the Eighth Wonder of the World.
That was 34 years and several facelifts ago. Now the Astrodome is losing its oldest tenant.
The Houston Astros move to a 42,000-seat downtown ballpark with a retractable roof next season. The team began its long goodbye last night, with Sammy Sosa and the Chicago Cubs in town for the 1999 opener.
"It's sad from one standpoint, but that's got to be tempered with the excitement of moving into a new facility." Astros president Tal Smith said. "I think the Astrodome lost a lot of its character when they took down the scoreboard and changed the configuration of the exterior."
The exodus began in 1997, when the NFL's Houston Oilers headed to Tennessee even after the $2 million scoreboard was removed to satisfy owner Bud Adams* demand for more seats.
Next year, the Astros will play on real grass for the first time since the earliest days of the Astrodome, whose opaque center-field glass prompted the invention of Astroturf.
The new home will be ready for opening day in 2000. Left behind will be the building where the Astros won division titles the last two seasons.
They also were six outs from the World Series against Philadelphia in 1980 and lost to the New York Mets in the 1986 playoffs.
players.
Before the air-conditioned Astrodome, fans had to tolerate the mosquitoes and sapping heat of Colt Stadium. Now it's back to the elements again, with the option of clos
ing the roof in unacceptable weather. In Houston, that could mean most of July. August and September.
The first major league game at the Astrodome was April 9, 1965 — Astros vs. Yankees.
"Mickey Mantle was the first batter, and they told him to take the first pitch, so they could keep the ball," recalled Ron Brand, then the Houston catcher. "Mantle said, 'I'm too nervous to swing anyway.' I couldn't believe he would be nervous but it really was an exciting time."
The Astrodome cost $31.5 million, a figure that couldn't meet some salary demands today. The Ballpark at Union Station, the downtown stadium's working title, will cost $265 million.
Smith was the Astros' liaison during construction of the Astrodome, which opened the era of modern stadium design. He is also in charge of this move.
"It doesn't seem like 35 years ago, but it was one of the most impressionable events in my life that I had the chance to be associated with it," Smith said. "I was with that project from the time it was a hole in the ground until completion."
The Astrodome's future depends on Houston businessman Bob McNair's efforts to land a franchise to replace the Oilers.
McNair has approval for a new football stadium on the same property. If he gets a team, most of the events previously held in the Astrodome will move to the new facility.
That would relegate the Astrodome to conventions and trade shows. If McNair is unsuccessful, the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo would consider renovating the Astrodome.
Until Mark McGwire's assault on the home-run record, ex-Astros Jimmy Wynn and Doug Rader had the longest upper-deck shots at the Astrodome. When the stadium was renovated, Wynn got the original seat marking his home run. He now has it in his home
"I knew it was going out, I just didn't know how far until I got back to the dugout," Wynn said. "My teammates pointed to exactly where it hit, and I just stood there a few seconds and said, 'Wow.'"
David Howard injured again
ST. LOUIS — Nobody could blame David Howard for believing that there's a huge black cloud following him around.
The Associated Press
It's been a typical spring for the St. Louis Cardinals' outfielder, who's hurt — again. As soon as he emerged from a large group of candidates to win the second-base job, he injured his groin running the bases after his third hit in the final inning of spring training.
"He was playing very well," manager Tony LaRua said.
So, in exchange for padding an average that was immediately wiped out on opening day, he landed on the disabled list for the eighth time in nine seasons.
"The best thing would probably have been if I'd have made an out," Howard said. "Just popped up,

struck out, something, then I wouldn't have been on base."
In the fourth inning, right-handed hitting teammate Placido Polanco was so far behind on a fastball from David Weathers that he lined it into the Cardinals' dugout down the first-base line. Howard glanced up and the ball was about to bean him right between the eyes.
He ducked out of the way just in time but gashed his face on a chair and missed the next several innings getting stitches. After the game he looked as if he had gone a couple rounds with Evander Holyfield.

The irony of that situation is Polanco, recalled from the minor leagues on Monday, who got the

"Oh man, what's going to happen next?" Howard said. "I was telling some of the guys that I might as well put on a catcher's mask. That's perfect, just perfect."

1991 but has played more than 100 games in a season only once. In 1992, a back injury landed Howard, the son of former major-league pitcher Bruce Howard, on the dl for 2 1/2 months. In 1993 he missed three months with a bout of Bell's Palsy and a strained right
hamstring. In 1996 he became the Royals starting shortstop and played 143 games, but the next two seasons he was on the disabled list three times for a shoulder injury that eventually required rotator cuff surgery.
Last year, he was done for the year on July 3 and played in only 46 games, batting .245 with two homers and 12 RBL.
The latest injury doesn't appear to be a huge setback. Howard even came to the park Monday hoping he could tape it up and try to play.
Still, he's having trouble coping with it because he had reported to training camp in the best shape of his career, and there was no warning before the injury. Howard, known for light hitting and slick fielding, had even flexed his muscles this spring with four home runs, including two in one game.
Clemens fizzles out in debut as Yankee
The Associated Press
OAKLAND, Calif. — Roger Clemens kicked the mound in disgust with his right foot. Tony Phillips' homer had just destroyed his aura of invincibility.
Two innings later, Clemens headed to the dugout to watch his new team lose a soggy season opener.
Clemens was nearly unhittable for the first 42-3 innings of his debut with the New York Yankees on Monday night against the Oakland Athletics, despite a 47-minute rain delay between the second and
third innings.
Trying to extend the 15-game winning streak with which he closed last season for the Toronto Blue Jays, Clemens had allowed only a drag bunt single by Jason McDonald in the third inning and

nag struck out seven of the 17 batters he had faced.
But, after walking Miguel Tejada on a full count with two outs in the fifth, Clemens gave up Phillips' game-tipping shot to right field.
"I was a little quick on my slide step," Clemens said. "He's got that zone down where he's very dangereous."
Derek Jeter's 410-foot homer to center field in the top of the seventh put the Yankees ahead 3-2 and gave Clemens another chance for the win, but again the five-time Cy Young Award winner could not hold the lead.
after throwing 107 pitches. The bullpen then blew Clemens' chance for a win.
Jason Giambi's run-scoring groundout of Mike Stanton tied the game 3-3, and Matt Stairs followed with an RBI single off Stanton. John Jaha then doubled off Jeff Nelson to drive in Oakland's fifth run.
"Tony got us going," Giambi said. ("Clemens) was dealing and it was tough, but Tony kind of broke the string. That kind of put a light at the end of the tunnel for us when it was kind of getting dim."
With one out in the bottom of the seventh, Clemens walked Phillips and was taken out of the game
The game finally ended at 10:27 a.m. after a second rain delay of 1 hour, 21 minutes that prevented the Yankees from batting in the ninth.
Clemens, traded to the Yankees in February by the Blue Jays, struck out eight and walked five while allowing four hits in his debut for New York.
"I was very excited to take the mound," he said. "I'm pretty jacked up for every start. But taking the field with these guys is very special."
Clemens remained two short of the AL record of 17 consecutive wins shared by Dave McNally of the Baltimore Orioles in 1968-69 and Johnny Allen of the Cleveland Indians in 1936-37. The major league record is 24 by Carl Hubbell of the New York Giants in 1936-37.
"I've never seen anybody so high to win a ball game as Clemens was in the dugout for the first inning," said Yankees interim manager Don Zimmer, a Red Sox coach, during part of Clemens' 13-year tenure in Boston. "He was like a wild lion.
in Boston. He was like what he said "When the game started, he looked like he was pitching for a World Series win. He's some competitor."
Albert Belle steps up, leads Baltimore to opening-day win
The Associated Press
BALTIMORE — He's much larger than life, standing far above the expressway traffic with a huge black bat in his hands and a grin across his face.
"Why is Albert smiling?" the billboard reads. "Because it's 364 to left-center."
Albert Belle, the Baltimore Orioles' poster boy for the 1999 season, didn't plant his first homer in those beckoning Camden Yards seats in left-center.
Instead, Belle marked his first formal day with the Orioles by launching an opposite-field drive over the 25-foot scoreboard in right field.
It was hardly the most distant shot of his career, but the home run was immense in importance. The three-run homer, which gave the Orioles the lead for good Monday in a 10-7 victory against Tampa Bay, set off a celebration by the sellout crowd that caused the ordinarily sullied slugger to take an impromptu curtain call.
He also managed to produce a genuine smile or two.
That's exactly what the Orioles were hoping for when they signed Belle to a five-year, $65 million contract in December. Team officials knew the risk of thrusting him into a town that likes its heroes wholesome (i.e. Johnny Unitas and Cal Ripken), but the Orioles also figured the fans would love the guy if he hit the cover off the ball.
At least for one day, it was smiles all around.
"Everybody on the team benefits with Albert in the lineup," said Brady Anderson, who also homered. "When you have a
proven RBI and home run hitter at cleanup, it affects everyone."
the three players in front of Belle — Anderson, Mike Bordick and Will Clark — all did their part by getting on base. Belle then showed why he has had at least 100 RBI in each of the last seven seasons, going deep with two runners on and later adding an RBI single.
With Belle leading the way, the

bullpen sputters. Baltimore was resilient without Cal Ripken and relentless against everyone the Devil Rays shoved onto the mound.
Ripken, baseball's Iron Man, was lifted for a pinch hitter in the third inning because of a stiff lower back. If he hadn't willingly ended his record consecutive games streak at 2,632 last year, the injury would have been front-page news.
It's still worth noting, however, because he was treated in a hospital Monday and might have to go on the disabled list for the first time in his 18-year career. The third baseman is questionable tonight against the Devil Rays at Camden Yards.
"He's day-to-day," Orioles spokesman John Maroon said yesterday. "Our training staff will monitor the situation and base their decision on how he feels today and tomorrow."

Detroit on roll after recent trades
New acquisitions add nastiness, talent to lineup
DETROIT — Since picking up four players hours before the March 23 trading deadline, Detroit has been unbeatable.
That can only mean trouble for the rest of the NHL — the Red Wings were pretty good to begin with.
Good, but not great.
Good, but not great.
The Red Wings, winners of the last two Stanley Cup championships, had losing streaks of three, four and five games. But since acquiring Chris Chelios, Wendell Clark, Ulf Samuelsson and goalie Bill Ranford at the trade deadline, the team has won seven straight games.
"It has really revived everybody," said goalie Chris Osgood, who has won five of those seven games, one of them his third shutout of the season. "We're a totally different team the last two weeks. We're excited again."
two weeks. What the newcomers appear to have added was a bit of nastiness. That was on display early in Monday night's 3-2 win against the Anaheim Mighty Ducks when Darren McCarty drew two minutes for roughing just 35 seconds.
McCarty, who had missed the 10 previous games with an injury, has never been a wallflower. But until the new guys showed up, the Red Wings couldn't afford to use him as an enforcer.
into the game.
"We've proved in the past that you have to use the regular season to set things up for the playoffs," McCarty said. "Right now, we're gearing ourselves up for the postseason."
The Red Wings are attempting to become the first team to win three consecutive Stanley Cups since the New York Islanders won four straight (1980-83).
straight (1950-60) and Detroit (41-30-6) is the No. 3 team in the Western Conference with almost no chance of overhauling first place Dallas. That means the Red Wings probably will draw Anaheim or St Louis in the first round of the playoffs.
"I think that's a bit of a slap at the other guys who were here," Hartsburg said. "They were a pretty good hockey team before the trades.
Mighty Ducks' coach Craig Hartgarsburt wouldn't mind if it was his team. He respects Detroit, but Hartgarsburth thinks maybe too much is being made of the Red Wings' recent acquisitions.
"But, if we come back here for the playoffs, maybe we'll have learned something about how it's going to be. They've been on a roll, no question about that."
It has been almost storybook stuff since the new players arrived. Clark has scored four goals, including the winner against Philadelphia on March 28. Chelios, who has been paired on defense with Nicklas Lidstrom, has played almost 25 minutes a game. And he added a goal in the Red Wings' 6-1 victory against Tampa Bay on March 28.
Ranford, 5-18-3 for the season, has won both his starts since coming to Detroit as Osgood's backup. Samuelsson, recovering from a broken foot, is expected to be ready for the playoffs.
Big trades don't always work. Sometimes the new guys don't fit in. Yet Detroit's four new-comers were made welcome at once.
"You can never tell, but the guys have helped out," said Detroit coach Scotty Bowman, who is shooting for an NHL-best ninth Stanley Cup. "It's given us a chance to play different guys, where we might not have had that luxury before."
"These guys are not just average guys." Detroit forward Martin Lapointe said. "They are world-class players. They adapt to pressure well. They would fit in well on any team."
well. They would have Lapointe noted that Clark, Chelios and Ranford all earned the respect of the others on the very first day by working hard in practice.
"You should see Billy in practice," Lapointe said. "You can't measure that."
Norman's psyche still tender
Inconsistent play priority questions cause concerns
The Associated Press
AUGUSTA, Ga. — The shoulder is surgically mended, although still relatively untested. A bout with stomach flu ended just in time for the Masters, and his swing guru says he's hitting the ball better than ever.
So why is Greg Norman being treated as little more than an afterthought on the eve of his 19th Masters?
It shows in his golf game, which has been maddeningly inconsistent since his comeback from shoulder surgery. And it shows
Simple. Three years after his spectacular Sunday collapse at Augusta National, Norman's scared psyche still seems to have room to heal.
on his face as he talks more about the new life he discovered while recuperating and less of his chances of finally winning a green jacket.
green jacket.
"Yes, I want to win the Masters, absolutely," Norman said. "But it's not a priority. There are other priorities that I enjoy doing. I don't have a sense of urgency anymore."
Sitting on the same podium where he bared his soul after blowing a six-shot lead in the final round to Nick Faldo in 1996. Norman had no problem yesterday talking about his latest swing changes, rebuilt shoulder or the stomach alliment that made him appear gaunt after losing a half-dozen pounds or so last week.
But he struggled when the subject centered on the motivation of an extremely wealthy 44-year-old whose failures have always loomed larger than his many successes.
"I'm very happy. I even enjoy
playing the game of golf." Norman said. "it know it's a matter of time before I'll get back there in the winner's circle. But now I don't want to force it. I'm very easy about things. I'm very relaxed about things."
That relaxation showed as Norman strolled a few minutes later to the practice tee, greeting old acquaintances and signing autographs. Once on the course, he shared laughs with playing partners Steve Elkington and Shigeki Maruyama.
Having fun in practice and being tournament tough, though, are two different things. And Norman concedes he hasn't played enough coming into the Masters. He missed the cut in The Players Championship and had to withdraw from the Bell-South Classic in Atlanta because of his illness.
It showed on the second hole as Norman pulled his drive way left into the trees from the new tee box, then almost hit Maruyama
with a sand shot as both practiced from the left greenside bunker.
"He just needs a little dose of confidence," Norman's coach, David Leadbetter, said. "He needs to play rounds under pressure."
Leadbetter tinkered a bit with Norman's swing during his seven-month layoff after last year's surgery on his left shoulder. Norman is swinging a bit more upright with a wider takeaway and is working on keeping his legs less active.
the results have been mixed. He played Tiger Woods tough in a match that went 18 holes during the Presidents Cup, only to collapse in the Match Play Championship against Eduardo Romero, blowing a three-up lead with five holes to play.
He went on and lost the Australian Masters to a birdie by Craig Spence on the 72nd hole, and he did not play particularly well at Doral Golf Resort before missing the cut at The Players Championship.
Mountain biker peddles hard for 2000 Olympics
The Associated Press
Alison Dunlap would love to be a biology professor. If only bicycles didn't keep getting in her way.
At the relatively ancient age of 30, Dunlap is on her second life as a bike racer. A member of the U.S. Olympic road-race team at the 1996 Olympic Games and a bronze medalist at the 1994 World Championships, she now is at the top of the World Cup mountain-bike circuit.
After two victories and a runner-up finish in March, Dunlap heads to Australia this week for races on the hills outside Sydney where the 2000 Olympic mountain-bike medals will be decided.
Although she would like to race both on and off the road at next year's Summer Games, Dunlap is focused on the sturdy bikes with the fat knobby tires that splash through mud and zoom between rocks and trees.
"I love mountain biking," she said. "There's no cheating and no hiding like there can be with road racing. We're all out on our own. The strongest rider almost always wins the race."
This season, Dunlap has been by far the strongest rider.
She won a mountain-bike stage race in Monterey, Calif., then took the first World Cup race of the season in Napa, Calif., winning by 20 seconds against Gunn Rita Dahle of Norway. Dunlap and Dahle are 1 and 2 in the women's standings going into the Sydney races Saturday and Sunday.
Dunlap also has kept pace on the roads, winning one stage and finishing second overall in the Redlands Bicycle Classic last month.
All this came about because Dunlap wasn't good enough to play college soccer. The last player cut from the Colorado College team as a freshman,
"I love mountain biking. There's no cheating and no hiding like there can be with road racing. We're all out on our own. The strongest rider almost always wins the race."
Alison Dunlap
World Cup mountain biker
by the time she graduated in 1991 with a degree in biology, Dunlap had won two national college road championships. She joined the national team program, won a World Cup race in Okinawa, Japan, in 1995 and finished in the middle of the 58-rider pack in the 96 Olympics.
Duniap stopped by a campus cycling club meeting and was hooked.
Looking for a change but not ready to retire from racing, she switched to mountain bikes and won a World Cup title in Budapest, Hungary, in April 1997 in only her fourth race.
"The switch wasn't hard, but it was kind of scary," Dunlap said. "All of a sudden there were new sponsors and people on the team. I didn't know what to expect. But I told myself, 'If I can do road racing, I can do this.' It has worked out very well."
After that, it might be retirement and that long-held goal of a biology professorship.
The trip to Sydney will help Dunlap's preparations for the Olympics, letting her experience the bumps and hollows of the Olympic course and giving her confidence once she switches her focus to the games next spring.
"But the 2001 World Championships are in Vail (Colo.)," she said. "It would be awfully hard to pass that up."
Oklahoma forward announces transfer
The Associated Press
NORMAN, Okla. — Ryan Humphrey, the highest-profile recruit in Kelvin Sampson's five years at Oklahoma, will be finishing his career elsewhere. The sophomore forward has been granted a release that will allow him to transfer to another school.
another school.
"I've enjoyed my two years at the University of Oklahoma," Humphrey said Monday in a statement issued by the university's sports information office. "I wish my teammates and the coaching staff the best. They've been very supportive of me. The people of Oklahoma have given me something to remember, and I'll never forget it."
Humphrey, a Parade and McDonald's All-American while at Booker T. Washington High School in Tulsa, Okla., was named to the Big 12 All-Freshman Team in 1998 after averaging 9 points and a team-high 6.5 rebounds per game.
This past year, he averaged 11.1 points and 7.5 rebounds while playing nearly 27 minutes per game. He averaged two blocks per game and compiled 119 blocks in his career, third most in school history.
"This is something he wanted to do," Sampson said. "We talked about it, and he sat on it for a couple days, then came back and said that's what he wanted to do.
"When a kid wants to do something, I just don't think a head coach should hold that over him or not give him his wishes. Ryan wanted to transfer."
Humphrey's father, Al, told The Daily Oklahoma that he, his son and Sampson had met last Tuesday to discuss the matter.
"It was something all of us agreed on," Al Humphrey said. "It was a mutual agreement. Ryan felt it was time for a change. He wanted to go out and find his niche. At this particular time, it was best that he move on and Coach Sampson supported his decision."
he said Ryan would remain enrolled at Oklahoma through the spring semester.
"There was not great shock value in our office "a bout Humphrey's decision. Sampson
Sampson said the idea of transferring had been broached previously.

said. "There's a little disappointment and maybe some shock when it does happen. But at the same time, you've got to think this is what the kid wanted, so don't be selfish about it.
"This happens. This is part of programs."
rie said the departure wouldn't affect Oklahoma's recruiting plans for the spring signing period, which begins today.
"We had four big guys coming back, and that included Ryan," Sampson said. "We're going to sign an up-front guy during this April signing period, and that will leave us with four again."
Dispute threatens next WNBA season
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Another labor dispute could delay the start of another basketball season.
The WNBA has given its players until Saturday to reach a contract agreement with the league.
At the center of the disagreement is salaries, just as it was when the NBA locked out its players for six months, nearly half the season.
The union wants a minimum salary of $45,000 for the three-month summer season. The WNBA is proposing $20,000, according to the union.
"The whole purpose of having a women's professional basketball league in the United States is because women are tired of going overseas." Coquese Washington, a guard for the New York Liberty and also a lawyer, told USA Today. "We want to make a career out of something we are very good at."
worth $60,000 a player.
WNBA president Val Ackerman said the league had offered a 30 percent increase in player salaries, year-round health, dental and maternity benefits and off-season career programs. The league said the compensation package was
The two sides also are at odds about the number of players from the defunct American Basketball League that should be allowed in the league. The WNBA wants 52 of the 90 eligi-
able players and wants to expand rosters to accommodate them. The union wants 24.
Ackerman told USA Today that the WNBA didn't think t here

should be restrictions on the number of ABL players.
"They will all go into the (April 27) draft together," Ackerman said. "Our plan is to allocate an additional player to (expansion) Minnesota and Orlando so that they'll end up with two allocated players, like everyone else did to start their rosters."
The WNBA has a tryout camp April 15-17 in Chicago. That camp could be jeopardized by the stalemate in negotiations.

SALT LAKE CITY — After looking at candidates from around the world, Salt Lake Organizing Committee President Mitt Romney has picked former business associate Fraser Bullock as the committee's No.2 administrator.
Businessman to be Olympics administrator
Bullock is co-founder of Alpine Consolidated, a Utah firm that specializes in business mergers and acquisitions.
Kanney and Bullock have a lot in common. The two businessmen both are Mormon, both graduated from Brigham Young University and both began their business careers at the same Boston capital firm. Both left to launch Bain Capital Inc., a venture-capital company.
The Associated Press
Romney and Bullock have a lot in common.
"Another white, male Mormon wasn't (my) first preference," Romney said in a letter faxed to trustees on Monday. "I would indeed have favored a candidate who brought more diversity."
Romney said he considered numerous qualified candidates including sports executives, several women and individuals from several countries.
However, he was impressed by Bullock's buil.
ness sense and his willingness to forsake his multimillion-dollar income to assist the SLOC in staging the 2002 Winter Games.
Romney will rely on Bullock to cut SLOC's $1.52 billion budget if revenues fail short in the wake of the Olympic bribery scandal, which has made sponsors nervous.
Several trustees had recommended finding someone with Games experience to oversee SLOC's day-to-day operations. Romney said the top two managers of the Atlanta and Los Angeles Olympics did not have prior Games experience, either
OLYMPIC GAMES
"I have therefore favored a 'tried and true' manager — tried in numerous challenging settings, and true in that I have observed him close at hand and trust his integrity." Romney told trustees, who will be asked to ratify Bullock's appointment at tomorrow's board meeting.
approaches. The firm unites troubled companies, orchestrates a public stock offering and uses the new company's stock as currency for future acquisi-
In another development Monday, Romney told a coalition of advocates for the homeless that he couldn't promise that housing that could benefit low-income residents would be left after the 2002 Winter Games.
and it is about 8,000 people in town.
"We will not be building housing. We'll be hosting people for 17 days, and then they will be moving on." Romney said.
Speaking with Salt Lake Impact 2002 and Beyond at the American Civil Liberties Union of Utah's downtown office, he said SLOC needs 22,000 rooms for 17 days during the Olympics and is still about 5,000 rooms short.
The coalition he met with represents more than a dozen groups involved with the state's poor, disabled and minority communities. It has lobbied for Olympics housing that would become low-income housing.
tions.
"I do not see any reason to do that," Romney said. "Let's allow our community to live and breathe as it is."
The groups also have been concerned about a possible crackdown on the homeless during the games, similar to actions taken during the 1996 Summer Olympics in Atlanta.
Court orders Denny McLain's pension garnished
The Associated Press
DETROIT — The government has garnished the pension of former Detroit Tigers' pitcher Denny McLain to reimburse a pension fund he was convicted of pilfering.
"Donny McLain used his status as a local baseball celebrity to illegally obtain money from the Peet Packing Co. retirement income plan for his own purposes. It seems only right that McLain's pension money from his time as a major league baseball player be returned to the victims of his greed," U.S. Attorney Saul A.
in 1996 of stealing more than $2.5 million from the company's pension fund and then laundering the money.
McLain and Roger Smigel, former co-owners of Chesaning's Peet Packing Co., were convicted
Green said in a news release yesterday.
N
McLain and Smigiel bought
Peet Packing in January 1994 and quickly took the money from the company's $12 million pension
fund, according to trial testimony. The Chesaning company went bankrupt in June 1995, and more than 200 workers lost their jobs.
Green said that during the hearing to have McLain's pension garnished, his office discovered that McLain's wife, Sharon, had obtained a divorce by default. According to terms of the settlement, essentially all the assets went to her and all the debts to McLain. Green said.
Green said that on March 31, U.S. District Judge Patrick Duggan ordered that all of McLain's pension be awarded to the victims
The U.S. Sixth Circuit Court of
Appeals last week upheld embezlement charges against McLain and Smigiel.
McLain, the major leagues' last 30-game winner, also faces trial on federal charges that he took part in a scheme involving fraudulent phone cards. Prosecutors allege John A. "Junior" Gotti, son of the imprisoned boss of the Gambino crime family, also took part in the fraud.
McLain, 54, pitched for the Tigers from 1963 to 1970. He was 31-6 in 1968 as Detroit won the World Series. His last major league season was 1972, when he was 28.

Role playing yields student fun
KU Gamers and Role Players play fantasy games weekly
By Ezra Sykes esykes@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
TR
Katsara had a hellish night
said.
After being blinded by a massive flash of light, he turned himself into a pool of water so that a wicked mother son duo couldn't hurt him. But it didn't work. Taking advantage of his liquid form, they easily vacuumed up his watery mass.
Katsura reacted by casting a spell called "neural disrupt," on his enemies. He escaped from the container, and, after regaining human form, attempted to cut the hand off the evil son to seize a sword of incredible power.
But again, disaster struck. An enemy paid him back by casting another "neural disrupt" that left him unconscious on the ground. "It hit me in the head, and I fell down drooling," said Noah Hoppe Walker. Katsura's master here on earth.
Hopson Walker, Kansas City, Kan., freshman. Is one of about 20 official members of KU Gamers and Role Players, a group that meets every Wednesday night at the Hawk's Nest in the Kansas Union. To be an official member (the group has about 20 unofficial members) individuals must pay $2 in dues.
Role playing involves creating characters that have quantified traits and controlling them in an imaginary adventure in a fantasy world controlled by a "game master." Books and dice provide some structure for these worlds and what happens in them.
At Wednesday night's meeting, Hopson Walker and three others finished a campaign, an ongoing series of related adventures. John Biles, Huntsville, Texas, graduate student, was the group's game master—an objective referee who has ultimate control in what the role players encounter.
Ben Siegan, Northbrook, IL, senior, likes to think of role playing as a book.
"You have to be able to think on your feet as game master," he said. "You must create interesting non-player characters and portray them. You have to know how to handle the players' egos and make sure they all get to participate."
"The game master is like an author without control of his characters" said Siegan, president of the club, "and the role players are like characters in a book who don't know what's going to happen on the next page."
Sigan, who has been gaming since the sixth grade, said the club didn't fit the negative reputation that role players often were given. "We aren't a bunch of oppressed freaks gathered by this holiday," said Sigan. "That's not the case at all."
bobby. Saito Siegan. That show is the most well-known role-
playing game around, has received some flak in the past. Siegan
Dungeons and Dragons and other role playing games have been accused of being aligned with devil worship, dangerously addictive and, in extreme cases, causing obsessive players to commit suicide.
Groups pushed together a few tables in the Hawk's Nest to participate in their separate games with names such as Shadowrum Worlds of Darkness and Rifts. Laughing and joking greatly outweighed the few mild profanities and forehead slappings that occurred.
and sports on television
and sports in television. Biles said role playing was extremely healthy considering popular college student activities such as drinking and partying. "It's a safer form of recreation than what most people are doing." he said.
"Look at Ozzy Osbourne, said Siegan, explaining how the fear of games such a Dungeons and Dragons had worn off. "In the '80s people thought he was a preacher of the devil." Now he's just a funny old man."
Kelly Peterson, Vermillion, S.D., sophomore, learned about the group during enrollment her freshman year when she and another soon-to-be freshman began trading stories about their past role-playing experiences.
Peterson is now treasurer of the group.
Although Biles won't be in college forever, he doesn't plan to check out of the realm of fantasy games anytime soon.
"I've been playing for 16 years and will continue until I drop."
"This is where I meet my friends," she said, motioning toward the rest of the room. "We try to be loving and inclusive."
And for those who think spending hours creating fictional characters and having them travel through imaginary worlds is foolish or a waste of time. Biles had something to say.
KU Gamers about $200, which was donated for advertisements and a small magazine the group publishes when materials are available. Peter son said.
— Edited by
"Well, I think other people's form of recreation are silly," he said, providing examples such as watching soap operas
This year KU Gass about $200, which advertisements and a small magazine the group publishes when materials are available. Peterson said.

Smart card bank choice not limited elsewhere
By Kristi Reimer

Kansas staff writer
(USPS 650-640)
While students have the option of using their KUIDs as debit cards, they have only one option for their accounts Commerce Bank.
But Pennsylvania State University in State College, Pa., has developed a way to provide smart-card technology to students while allowing them to choose their banks.
"The University didn't want to shut any particular bank out," said Wendy Buterbaugh, president of Pioneer Systems Inc., which developed the program at Penn State. "Students have a choice and can shop around for the best financial services."
"Every time a student uses ATM on campus, the financial institutions pay a transaction fee to the university," she said. "But they save money because now they don't have to issue cards."
The "open-card" system is the first of its kind, Buterbaugh said. In preparing to implement the program, Pioneer asked local banks to participate. Those who signed on paid a fee for the right to market to students on campus. They also have access to technology allowing students to use their ID cards in ATMs and for point-of-sale purchases.
Pioneer manages the program and provides the data processing for Penn State. Butterbaugh said her company was
"This is the future trend," she said. A smart card combines identification features with financial services. In addition to the banking options, students can use cash-to-card machines to place money on the card's account.
Lindy Eakin, associate provost at the University of Kansas, said he was intrigued by the open-card program but didn't know if the University would be able to do the same thing.

Students at Penn State will be able to use their student IDs as ATM cards, and they may choose what bank they want to work with. At KU, however, only students with accounts at Commerce Bank may use their KUIDs as ATM cards.
KU administrators say that an open card system is possible in the future, but it is financially and technologically unrealistic right now.

The cuts of a car engine lie on the floor.
About 20 metal chairs surround it. Slowly, they fill with people who are eager to learn.
Pistons, a radiator, four wheels, a front and rear axle and scattered pieces of brakes are a few of the items that combine to create a patchwork vehicle.
Byron Edmondson, owner of Byron's Autohaus, talks about cars to an auto mechanics class for beginners. Next week the class will learn how to change the oil in some of the students' cars. Photo by Kate Levenson / KANSAN
This was the scene last night at Byron's Autohaus, 640 N. Second St., as students gathered for a class on auto maintenance and repair.
Ikuyasu Usui, Japan junior, said he was going to buy a car soon and wanted to know how to take care of it.
The program was sponsored by the Emily Taylor Women's Resource Center and cost $15.
Joy Weroha, Lawrence senior, can change the oil in her car and change a flat tire but wants to learn about car mechanics so that she wouldn't get ripped off by

took this class so I could be more independent and not taken advantage of by the auto repair industry," she

At the first session, Edmondson laid out old car parts in relation to where they fit in a car engine and explained how they worked.
The second session includes changing the oil of one of the student's cars, and in the third session, students are shown how to change a tire, jump start a car and some basic tune-up methods. Edmondson said the tips were helpful for people who didn't know anything about cars.
Katherine Rose-Mockry, director of the Emily Taylor Women's Resource Center, said she had received a lot of positive input about the class, especially from women.
Rose-Mockry said that men were certainly welcome to the class but that usually more women attended.

Proposition B defeat safer for Missouri students say
By Jamie Knodel
jknodel@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Some KU students who call Missouri home feel that the state will be safer because a proposition that would have allowed Missouri citizens to carry concealed weapons failed.
Proposition B was defeated by a narrow 52 to 48 percent margin Tuesday.
Some students said that they were surprised that the vote's margin was so small and that they had expected the proposition to pass.
"Although the public questioned the utility of the proposition, they seemed willing to make the changes," said Jason Holsman, Lee's Summit, Mo., senior. Holsman said he planned to move to St. Louis after his May graduation.
Opponents of Proposition B were relieved the measure was defeated and said that they believed that allowing citizens to carry concealed guns would present safety issues for citizens.
Anne Weischaar, Kansas City, Mo., graduate student, said that passing the issue would have made Missouri more dangerous. Opponents also said that safety issues would arise because requirements for carrying concealed weapons would be more relaxed.
"I don't feel that people carrying around weapons like that promotes safety," said Elaine Gluck, St. Louis, Mo., freshman.
Supporters of the proposition said that by allowing individuals to carry guns, however they would be able to protect themselves against criminals.
"There is an element of prevention that comes along with the passage of this proposition." Holsman said.
He also said that he thought that had the measure passed, it would have been a good opportunity for the state to take a stand.
"There are good and bad sides to every issue. With this issue it is hard to tell which side weighs heavier," Holsman said. "But the government has been complacent too long."
Missouri's vote Tuesday was the first time in the nation that the issue to carry concealed weapons was decided by voters.
In the thirty-one states that allow concealed guns, legislators approved the measures.
Gov. Mel Carnahan's spokesperson, Chris Sifford, said that the governor was pleased with the voters' decision to uphold the state's ban on concealed guns.

Miller founded Women on a Mission, or WOAM, in Kansas City after learning that she was HIV positive in 1994. WOAM works to empower women to take responsibility for their health in regard to HIV and to prevent spreading the virus which causes AIDS.

"What would make me happy is if one person got tested," Miller said. "I want everyone to know that, what I'm living with, you don't have to have."
women needed to take preventative steps to ensure their own health. These steps include insisting on HIV testing of partners in a relationship, she said.
"Why not do some prevention on the front end?" Miller said. "As a woman, we have a special role because our men look to us for guidance. If I'm good enough to be in a relationship, we're good enough to get tested.
Miller talked about the process of learning she was HIV positive and telling her children and the people around her.
She first learned of her infection when she received a letter from the health department after donating plasma.
what is the first thing you think of when you get a letter from the health department?" Miller asked. "Itain'ta job offer."

Counseling Services to offer alcohol testing
Students who worry that they might have a drinking problem will have the opportunity to receive some answers during the National Alcohol Screening Day today.
Counseling and Psychological Services is sponsoring free anonymous screening from 1 to 3 p.m. at the first-floor conference room at Watkins Memorial Health Center.
Linda Keeler of CAPS said that students would be able to take a self-test to see if they had a problem with the way they used alcohol. Students also will be able to take an anonymous questionnaire about alcohol and talk one-on-one with CAPS staff. If needed, students could be referred to alcohol treatment and support services on campus.
Keeler also will give a talk and show two videos about how alcohol affects people in their everyday lives.
The tests are designed to address the
issue of binge-drinking on campus and its effects on student's grades and health
Keeler said that the tests were not a diagnosis to say whether or not someone was an alcoholic. She said they were intended to look at the way students used alcohol and to see if there was a reason for concern.
The screening is a program of the National Mental Illness Screening Project and the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism.

Seating for guests at this year's convocation will be limited to the east side of Memorial Stadium due to renovations, said Jeff Weinbent, assistant to the Chancellor.
Renovations to limit convocation seating
Students will be seated in the bowl in the north end of the stadium, and guests with special needs will be seated on the track, as the stadium's elevators will be out of service as well.
Weinberg said that convoction would run as usual in all other respects.
Renovations that the University is working on include the replacement of some seats and renovations to the press box. Construction on the east side of the stadium were completed last year.
All renovations will be completed in time for football season in the fall.

KU professors bring back geology survey course
Two professors at the University of Kansas have revived a popular geology survey course that hasn't been offered for three semesters.
Geology 121, Prehistoric Life, had been taught for more than a decade by Richard A. Robison, professor emeritus of geology Robison, however, retired in the fall of 1997 and the class was no longer offered.
Jennifer Roush
Roger Kaesler, professor of geology and director of the Paleontological Institute, will teach one section of the course in the fall. Bruce Lieberman, assistant professor of geology, will teach a section in Spring 2000.
Kaesler said that the class would satisfy the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences biological science requirement. If students take Geology 123, Fossils Lab, at the same time, the course would also count as a laboratory class.
He said that the class was aimed at students who were not science majors but were interested in fossils.
Although the course is listed under the department of geology, Kaesler said it was primarily concerned with the study of prehistoric life. He said that it was classified as a geology course because it would deal with fossils, which are the only evidence that exists of prehistoric life.
Kaesler said that fossils also were the only evidence that organisms evolved in the past and that the course
would be based on the assumption that modern evolutionary theory is true.

Penn States of the world are doing," he said. Eakin said when the University first looked into offering smart-card features through the KUID, he wanted to set up a generic system that allowed students the most choice and flexibility.
But Eakin's office ran into technological limitations associated with encoding the magnetic stripe on the back of the cards. KU decided to sign with Commerce because it was already working with a network processor.
"Technologically, we're interested in this process, but we weren't able to pull it off," he said.
But he said he was interested in the program and would explore different options when the contract with Commerce expires in 2003.
Eakin also said that because Penn State was a state-university system made up of about 30 campuses, it could spread the costs around, which KU wouldn't be able to do.
"We like working with Commerce," he said. "They're great partners, and we expect to do good things. But if we can figure out a way to do something like Penn State at an affordable cost, we would be interested."
Joan Golden, director of marketing at Mercantile Bank, said working with students had been a tradition there for many years.
She didn't begrudge KU for its exclusive smart-card contract with Commerce, but she said she hoped the system would eventually be opened.
"Hopefully over the years, other banks would be able to participate in the program," she said.

Senate passes anti-sweatshop code
Resolution requires companies to comply with labor regulations
By Nadia Mustafa
nmustafa@kansan.com
Kansan writer
The administration soon will review a resolution passed by Student Senate last night urging the University of Kansas to sign an anti-sweatship code.
The code would require the University to enter into corporate contracts with caution, avoiding companies that tolerated sweatshop labor in the manufacturing of collegiate products such as hats, sweatshirts, mugs and miniature basketballs.

SENATE
Senate acclimated the resolution last
night, an action that represented a unanimous show of support.
The University of Kansas Athletic Corporation has an exclusive contract with Nike, which manufactures KU athletic teams' apparel.
Kyle Browning, president of the KU chapter of Amnesty International, said that Nike recently had attempted to improve working conditions but that much progress was still necessary.
Pat Warren, assistant athletics director, said that the corporation's goal was to provide the best apparel and equipment for its athletes.
"As far as we know from Nike and other sources, you can't buy any apparel or shoes made under any better conditions than what Nike is doing," he said.
Thirty senators sponsored the resolution, which called for regular inspections of factories and for companies to be annually certified on protection of workers' rights.
Tom Hutton, director of University Relations, said that the University was exploring the option of coordinating with other institutions to develop a code of conduct.
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 and allow freedom of association and collective bargaining.
Nike's director of global issues management, Vada Manager, said that Nike complied with the Council's code, and that the company had some of the best manufacturer-
The University received $780,000 in revenues from trademark licensing last year, which was distributed to scholarship funds.
If the University signs the code, it would require Nike and other companies that manufacture KU products to comply with the regulations. In addition, the resolution requests that the administration work to strengthen the code by requiring companies to provide public releases of factory sites and workers' living wages.
In other business, Senate passed legislation last night that would accomplish the following:

ing facilities in the industry. He said that Nike had agreed to release information about factories, and that the company would endorse Senate's resolution.
"We are seeking the development of a code that balances the needs of schools with the realities of the business world — in other words, a code that makes sense and is enforceable," Knight wrote.

Campaigns' clean slate promising after several years of mud slinging
In less than one week, students will elect two people to govern Student Senate and represent students at the University.
However, students will have to choose between two pairs of candidates, Seth Hoffman and Mary Liu of Delta Force and Korb Maxwell and Dede Seibel of YOU. Both pairs represent their respective coalitions but only one of those two groups of people will be able to call its candidates Mr. President and Ms. Vice President.
Although both coalitions' members want to see their presidential and vicepresidential candidates succeed, members should maintain a positive competitive environment by refraining from malicious political maneuvering.
Elections Commissioner Jennifer Watkins said that the number of complaints against each coalition usually rises just before the elections but that the elections commission had worked to prevent hostility between the two coalitions. So far, the only complaint filed was Ben Walker's and R.J. Woodring's allegation that graduate Jason Fizell was an non-commissioned campaign advisor to Delta Force, elections commission chair Amanda Weinberg said.

in past years, political mudslinging
Because coalition politics have been relatively clean so far, members should strive to make efforts to maintain sportsmanlike behavior.
Tensions may rise in the coming week but campaign violations should not.
Coalition members should maintain malice-free professionalism and let the students have their own opinions about the candidates. Clean campaigning will save students a lot of annoyance and candidates a lot of energy.

Increased voter turnout within reach
Last year's Student Senate victors won the battle they waged during their campaign to increase voter turnout.
Voter percentage was up 4 percent from the 1997 elections.
To match last year's voter increase, 4648 of the 24,463 eligible students must vote in Senate elections April 14 and 15. That is only about 540 more votes than last year's total ballots of 4113.
KU students should be proud that the percentage of students voting increased in 1998. The act sent a strong message to student leaders that students were taking an interest in the student-centered issues that continue to surrounded the

One of these issues, the recreation center proposal, deals with a student fee increase. If for no other reason, students should take five minutes to let their student leaders know how they want their money spent.
The bottom line is that the University of Kansas will have a new Student Body President and Vice President next Friday.
The only way to ensure that those individuals truly represent the students is to vote April 14 and 15.

In Missouri on that day, citizens voted about whether a law that banned concealed firearms in that state should be repealed.

The worst part is, I forgot to mail in my absentee ballot. As I watched the results trickle in and saw what a tight margin it was, I was mentally kicking myself. At one point, the margin was less than one percent. What if concealed weapons were allowed by one vote? That thought was chasing its tail in my head for most of the evening.
They narrowly voted to keep the ban, 52 percent to 48 percent.
I'm leaving Missouri — possibly for good — when I graduate. The thought that my home state could have passed a law so represensible and dangerous would have made that parting rather less than amicable.
if it, respectively:
Backers of Proposition B held that, somehow, carrying concealed guns would have made Missourians safer.
It would have hurt my state, and my feelings for it, irreparably.
And yet, amazingly, voters in the Missouri's urban areas, including Kansas City, St. Louis, St. Joseph and Columbia, didn't feel threatened enough by their "hostile" urban settings to vote for the proposition. In fact, they rejected it by more than a 2 to 1 margin.
It was rural dwellers who thought concealed weapons would benefit them somehow.
Do guns deter crime? Not likely. Law enforcement officials from throughout the state denounced the proposition.
St. Louis County Prosecutor Robert McCulloch flatly told The Associated Press that more guns would bring more trouble.
"We don't want to be going back to the old Wild West days with everyone wearing a gun," he said.
Statistics scarcely can be brought to bear on the matter. The Center on Crime, Communities and Culture and the Columbia Journalism Review list five reputable organizations that will give statistics against gun control. They also list six that will support gun control. Both side's numbers add up. Both contradict each other.
The bottom line is that guns, no matter what anyone says, are weapons. Weapons are designed to hurt or kill. Giving people another means of hurting and killing one another is simply a terrible idea. I'm biased.
I grew up at 54th and Woodland in Kansas City,
My. Mom买的 bought their first house for $1 from
the Department of Housing and Urban Development. Nobody else wanted it—it was in disrepair and had been used by squatters.
Growing up in that neighborhood, it never seemed threatening. I had friends, and I played kickball, hide and seek and whiffleball with my friends in their vards.
But it was dangerous.
One afternoon, my father and I were having tomato soup and grilled cheese sandwiches in our kitchen. It was a sunny day, and we were enjoying lunch together.
A crash from the back door, which led into the kitchen, made us look up. A man, wearing a ski mask, had just ripped open our back door with a crowbar.
He stood there, looking at us. I looked at him. My dad looked at him with a spoon and a surprised look.
But consider an alternate situation: My dad was wearing his Sig Sauer 9mm pistol because it was legal and because he didn't feel safe in our neighborhood.
The burglar ran, and was caught by the police a couple blocks away.
This changes things.
The intruder feels more like panicking, maybe attacking us, maybe just running. My dad feels threatened by the crowbar. He shoots and kills the intruder. Or a swing of the crowbar makes the shot go awry, hitting me.
goal, intjagme.
All having a gun around does introduce the possibility of more violence. And I don't know how anyone could argue that'a good thing.
The NRA tried, though, it spent $3.8 million on the campaign in Missouri, unleashing 700,000 mailings and 60,000 yard signs to try to ram through Proposition B.
For people in rural areas, what the NRA said made sense. But people living in rural areas don't understand the fear of walking into a mall, or a football game, or a movie theater and knowing that anyone around you could be legally carrying a device designed to kill you.
But it didn't pass, and I slept soundly Tuesday night.
Now, when I pack up my things into my Chevy and begin the drive up north, I won't leave my home state with a bad taste in my mouth.
And as I'm driving away, I won't feel a loaded gun prodding me on my way.

I have a confession to make. I have never voted in a Student Senate election.
About 6 p.m. Saturday, when most students were dyeing Easter eggs with young cousins and I was working in the Kansan newsroom, I wondered why.
To quote my associate, "I as firmly nestled between my legs."

I can't hide behind ignorance. And by last year, although not noble, it simply was a challenge to traipse through campus and avoid being lured to the polls by anxious candidates.

I'm not proud of that.
I'm not proud of that.
The first two years, it was about intimidation. Student Senate elections were too far out of my comfort zone. I didn't know how they worked or what the ballot looked like. I didn't know the University of Kansas or the candidates well enough to understand what my vote meant.
enough to understand I was the worst kind of nonvoter, never taking the time to learn enough about the elections to make a sound decision.
make a decision. Each student has two choices on April 14 and 15. For each Senate seat and student body officer candidate, they may vote for a candidate or they may abstain. For referendum issues, they may voice their opinion or they may abstain. In a democratic election, abstention is a choice, one that students should make wisely.
The beauty of abstention is that constituents may communicate that they never found a suitable option.
I wish I could say that was the reason I didn't vote. Voter turnout already is low; I am not advocating that it drop. Instead, I advocate that the "I don't cares" be replaced with "I'm not satisfied."
Each year, the Kansan editorial board endorses candidates for Student Senate elections as letters about campaign tactics flood in. I don't know when the tradition began, but I want it to be more than a stamp of approval.
It is better to be more aware as editorial editor, I had a goal: to publish a page with national, state, local and campus issues every day.
I am throwing that out the window for the next four days.
Beginning with this column and the editorials defending voter turnout and pleasant campaigning, the next four days will focus on Student Senate elections.
The goal: to offer insightful, researched articles about the candidates and the issues. This is an opinion page. There are no promises of objectivity. Instead, each referendum issue will be examined and the perspectives of the major players will be shared. Staff columnists, guest columnists and editorial board members will offer information and arguments about the options.
spots, will be paired with you.
On Wednesday, we will print guest columns from the presidential and vice presidential candidates for each coalition. Korb Maxwell, YOU candidate for student body president, and Dede Seibel, YOU candidate for student body vice president, will outline the issues and rationale of their campaign. Seth Hoffman, Delta Force candidate for student body president, and Mary Liu, Delta Force candidate for student body vice president, will do the same.
options.
For the last two weeks, the Kansan editorial staff has been chin-deep in Senate elections. Board members have interviewed the candidates for student body president and vice president. They have surveyed each senatorial candidate. The results of those interviews and surveys, including the board's choices to fill the spots, will be published on Monday.
They are a recreation center proposal, a zero-tolerance hate crime proposal and a public transportation proposal. The purpose of these referendums is to record student opinion. This is the students' opportunity to suggest the direction of these initiatives. And it is important to know that these are not coalition initiatives.
Three referendum issues that will appear on the ballot also will be addressed on the page.
Two views of the hate crime proposal, which originated from a group known as Students Against Hate, will be published tomorrow. The new recreation center proposal, created by the Recreation Task Force, will be detailed from both sides in columns and by the editorial board on Tuesday. And a proposal for KU student support of public transportation, which was submitted by KU Enviros, also will be a topic of a Tuesday editorial.
Friday, two Kansan columnists, Nick Bartkoski and Andrew Marino, will share their observations about the Monday night debate between these two coalitions.
I hope that this year's 'Kansan endorsements will be read by more students than just those pictured on the page, and that students will use them as a voters guide as well as a suggested slate.
I'll provide you with the ammunition to cast an educated vote, and you give me a ride to the polls. OK?

Forum denounces death penalty
By Katie Burford kbfordfor.kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
Four people intimately involved with the issue of capital punishment discussed their experiences and fielded students' questions last night in the Kansas Union.
All of the speakers opposed the death penalty.
About 70 students were present at the forum, which was held in Alderson Auditorium and sponsored by KU's Amnesty International chapter.
"There's a buzz word called closure.
I
One of the speakers, Alma Weber, said that seeing her son's killer put to death would bring her no solace. Her son, Paul, worked as a parole officer and was stabbed to death by one of his parolees in 1976.
but there is never closure to a death or murder." Weber said. "I can't understand how watching someone die would bring me closure."
Weber and Carolyn Zimmerman, another forum guest, are members of the Kansas Coalition Against the Death Penalty.
Zimmerman told the audience that her father was murdered in Warrensburg, Mo., in 1969.
Normally, Zimmerman's mother would pick her father up from his office after work, but one snowy January night he called to say he was taking a cab.
Three weeks later, after the snow had thawed, he was found stabbed
to death, she said.
His killer was never identified. Zimmerman placed a picture of her father on the lectern while she spoke.
Nonetheless, she said that she had to release her resentment toward her father's killer before she was able to go on with life. She said that the death penalty was society's response to situations like hers and that it only perpetuated a disregard for human life.
"People don't want to deal the truth that we are powerless to protect ourselves from random violence." Zimmerman said.
Ben Coates, forum speaker and sociology teacher at Washburn University, cited examples of inequity in the application of capital punishment.
He said that race was the single and best predictor of whether a criminal would be sentenced to die.
In Mississippi, an African-American male's chance of being sentenced to death was 550 percent higher than a white male', he said. Currently there are two men in Kansas on death row.
Reid Nelson, a defense lawyer with the Kansas Appellate Defender Office, is working to overturn one of those sentences.
"People often ask me, 'Why do you defend these people?' he said.
He said that he was serving a fundamental function in our legal system, which entitles everyone the opportunity to defend themselves.
Many National Merit Scholars were in attendance because the event satisfied a merit-program requirement to attend several talks a year.

man, said that she attended to fulfill the requirement but that the topic was interesting to her. She said that she supported the death penalty in certain instances.
"It depends on the crime," Crable said.
The dragging death of James Byrd Jr. in Jasper, Texas, and Timothy McVeigh's bombing of the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building in Oklahoma City were instances in which she thought the death sentence were justified.

Math celebration adds days for awareness

Bozena Pasik-Duncan, professor of mathematics and coordinator of Math Awareness Month, said that seven days weren't enough to squeeze in all of the activities. This year, April will be a month-long celebration of numbers.
"It's just one way of celebrating math awareness," said Jack Porter, who is in charge of testing Lawrence school students. "We want to celebrate the best math students at all levels."
The month will include KU math competitions and workshops for junior high and high school students, lectures by local and national professors and professionals, and math department social and honors banquets.
ing calculators and possibly cash, Porter said, but meeting other good math students and seeing the KU campus would be beneficial to all involved.
Winning students will receive graph
Pasik Duncan said that in past years, activities for KU students and faculty hadn't fit into the Math Awareness week.
"In the past, it was mostly for the community," she said. "This year, the philosophy is to keep a balance between the community and KU students."
PasiK-Duncan said that Math Awareness week first began in 1986 and that KU had taken part for at least five years.
This year's theme is "Math and Biology." Pasik-Duncan said that the theme always emphasized the importance of math in another scientific area.
Victoria Corbin, assistant professor of molecular bioscience, said that without math, there would be nothing to back up anecdotal evidence.

Prum said he was probably the last person that people would expect to speak about math, but that it was an important part of his speech.

"The take-home message is that someone like me can become an applier, if not a producer, of very sophisticated math," he said. "I think a broad section of students can appreciate the talk."

Police identify victims of Westport murders
- Edited by Clint Hooker
Motive of killings unknown by family of accused murderer
No charges had been filed in the deaths of the other men: Beach's stepson Michael Davis, 32, who shared the rented bungalow; Mark Nelson, 28, and Jeral Nickerson, 61, both of Kansas City; and Christopher Conrad, 27, of Overland Park.
The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — As police identified the last of five bodies found decomposing in the rented home of a lmousine driver charged with murder, the accused man's relatives wondered yesterday how the victims ended up dead at the house.
Gary Beach, 56, pleaded not guilty in Jackson County Circuit Court on one count each of first-degree murder and armed criminal action in the death of his step-nephew, 45-year-old Kenneth Gulley of Independence.
All five bodies were found Monday after relatives of Gulley summoned police because he
had not been seen in days. Beach was arrested Tuesday outside a hotel in the city's Westport entertainment district, not far from Beach's home.
Gulley's daughter, Brandy Sales, said yesterday her father worked as a mechanic at a truck-leasing company in North Kansas City and lived in Independence with his 5-year-old son, Sales and her husband. Gulley's mother is Beach's sister-in-law.
For more than a decade, Dubert had rented Beach the white single-story house. He paid his $400 a month in cash.
Killings.
"He killed two people that loved him very much and would never hurt a bone in his body," said Smith, who lives in Bartlesville, Okla.
As for the other victims, Nickerson was the last to be identified.
Outside the courthouse yesterday, Beach's stepdaughter Cheryl Smith — Michael Davis's sister — said she loved Beach and was trying to understand what could have led to the killings.
He had lived for a time in a home across the street from Beach. Nelson had been on
parole since Aug. 28, 1998, after serving jail time for felony assault. Hayward Johnson, who lived with Nelson, said he was a drinker who did not have a job.
Conrad, the son of an Overland Park police detective, served two years in a Kansas prison for attempted robbery.
in the hours before his arrest Tuesday, Beach reportedly called the homes of Kenneth Gulley's mother and brother. Dennis Gulley, who is a nephew of Beach.
Police finished searching the home for evidence Tuesday, saying they had collected about 300 bags of evidence, including two interior doors that were splattered with blood. Police also found 9mm shell casings and other small caliber shell casings.
All five men had been dead for days when police found the bodies Monday. Neighbors reported hearing gunshots from inside the midnight home early Friday morning, and said the home's air conditioner had run nonstop since then in an apparent attempt to slow decomposition.
BEACH Jim Maupin, a friend of Dennis Gulley, answered the phone at Dennis Gulley's home and heard a growling voice that he recognized as Beach.
nine hours past.
"Tell that (expletive) nephew of mine he is next," Beach reportedly said, referring to Dennis Gulley. "Tell him I am going to get him."
A man claiming to be Beach called The Kansas City Star early Tuesday and left a voice-mail message for a reporter. Two people, a relative and a longtime neighbor of Beach, identified the voice on the message as Beach's.
"I think you're on the wrong track. You kept emphasizing aboutmen, men, men. It was a crazy crack situation, where crack suppliers wouldn't leave certain people alone, and I finally got fed up with it," the caller said, referring to a Tuesday story in the paper.
died so far that "And two of the boys there, Mark Nelson and Mike Davis, I just didn't want them to live with the shame on their conscience of what they were."
Beach also made calls to the police department's robbery unit and tips hotline. Sgt. Dave Bernard would not say what Beach said during those calls.
Smith and another brother,
Donald Davis, both said they did
not think drugs had anything to
do with the killings.

BELGRADE, Yugoslavia (AP) — Yugoslav authorities sealed off Kosovo's main border crossings yesterday, preventing ethnic Albanians from leaving as the wave of refugees approached the half-million mark. As NATO stepped up its airstrikes, a Cypriot mediator sought freedom for three captured U.S. soldiers.
Two loud explosions could be heard shortly before midnight last night in the center of Belgrade, and smoke could be seen rising in the direction of the army headquarters. A local resident, reached by telephone, said an army building near the headquarters was hit.
The area is a densely populated part of the capital with numerous apartment houses nearby. Elsewhere, Studio B television also reported that six missiles struck the town of Cuprija, 55 miles south of Belgrade, early today.
Yugoslav media reported explosions late yesterday in Panevo, an industrial town
just north of Belgrade that has been repeatedly targeted during the 15-day NATO campaign.
Serbian television early today reported an attack on Kratjevo, 75 miles south of Belgrade. The missiles struck "mostly on civilian targets," the report said, but no other details were available and it was not possible to independently confirm the reports.
Earlier yesterday, Albania's parliament approved NATO plans to allow 24 U.S. Apache attack helicopters onto their territory — a move that should bolster the alliance's firepower against the Yugoslav tanks and armor that have driven ethnic Albanians from their homes in Kosovo.
after forcing more than 400,000 refugees out to neighboring countries, Yugoslav authorities closed the main exit route on Wednesday without explanation, forcing tens of thousands of people back toward the burned villages they had been escaping from.
German Defense Minister Rudolf Scharping warned that the Yugoslavs may be planning to use the civilians in Kosovas as
"human shields" against NATO attack.
In Morini, the crossing point for Kosovo refugees into Albania, the flow of cars and tractors suddenly stopped at 3 a.m., witnesses said. Yugoslav border guards could be seen laying what appeared to be mines and digging fortifications just inside their territory.
Sharping said Yugoslav forces had begun forcing ethnic Albanians back from the border areas into the province. He showed aerial photos that he said showed Serb tanks surrounding a Kosovo village, separating the men and women, and then opening fire on houses.
"The refugees ... were told to return to their places of residence — whatever is left of those places," said Doran Vienneau of the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe, which has been monitoring the border.

Moms with birth defects usually have normal kids
The Associated Press
Women with birth defects have normal babies a surprisingly high 96 percent of the time, a Norwegian study found.
Because many birth defects are at least partly genetic, researchers expected to find more of them among babies whose mothers had defects.
What surprised them was that the difference was so small: Birth defects were seen in 3.8 percent of babies whose mothers had birth defects vs. 2.4 percent of those born to normal mothers.
"It's not the usual finding of everything looks dark for that family," said researcher Rolv Skjaerven of the University of Bergen.
The findings fill a major gap in knowledge for experts who counsel couples about genetic traits, said Donald R. Mattison of Chicago, medical director for the March of Dimes.
"While there is an increased risk, it's at a level many people might feel comfortable with" he said.
The study was published in last Thursday's New England Journal of Medicine. It was based on records of nearly 460,000 females born between 1967 and 1982 in Norway, which maintains a national registry that lists birth defects found in the baby's first five days.
The findings mean that mothers with birth defects are 60 percent more likely than other women to have children with birth defects. But that's 60 percent of a small risk to begin with.
When such birth defects do occur, they are often the same ones that the mothers have, the study found. More than half of the 1,100 mothers had relatively minor defects, such as a clubfoot or a cleft lip or palate.
Unusual claims elicit tax audits
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — The computer formula used by the Internal Revenue Service to pick income tax returns for audit rivals a nuclear launch code in its secrecy. But some red flags are known: The self-employed and people claiming unusually high itemized deductions are among those more likely to be audited.
The IRS audits less than 2 percent of the returns it receives and won't disclose precisely how it targets them.
"Basically, what you're going to see is people who have something out of the ordinary on the return," said Mike Salkowski, senior manager at Ernst & Young accounts in Atlanta. "For instance, a high mortgage income deduction and low income."
From the IRS standpoint, the only people who should fear an
audit are those who are trying to audit or cheat that who don't have documentation for their deductions or other claims.
"If you're entitled to a deduction, and you have the records to back it up, by all means you should take it," said IRS representative Don Roberts.
Two-thirds of audited tax returns are picked by IRS computers in Martinsburg, W.Va., using what is called the "discriminant function," or DIF. These are top secret formulas designed to screen for returns that have a higher potential for payment of more taxes.
Other audits are selected through referrals from state and local governments, from criminal cases and by special enforcement programs, such as those aimed at cutting down questionable tax shelters.
Because final audit decisions are made by humans at IRS, Morrow said people who fall

Each year, 1 million to 2 million individual returns are audited. The most common is the correspondence audit, in which the taxpayer receives an IRS letter asking for more information about one or two items.
A key reminder for taxpayers: Respond promptly in writing to every IRS letter.
Design changes fuel radar snags in FAA program
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — A new $1 billion Federal Aviation Administration computer system is proving to be so slow in tests that it takes at least twice as long as the equipment it is supposed to replace.
Agency officials said the slowness was a result of design changes suggested by technicians and air traffic controllers and were being remedied.
"In making all those changes there were adverse effects on system performance — In other words the system was slowed," said William Shumun, FAA representative. "We are now working to restore the speed of the system to its specifications."
Citing an internal report on tests conducted last month, USA Today reported yesterday that the system, called "Stars," was two to three times slower than existing equipment in displaying aircraft radar positions and responding to air traffic controllers' commands.
It quoted FAA officials who said, until fixed, the new system was unsuitable for use at the nation's busiest airports, where it was needed most.
The first elements of the system were to be installed at Washington's Reagan National Airport by March 31, but the FAA announced in February it would not meet that deadline. No new date has been set.
Peter Challan, the FAA's director of air traffic systems, told the newspaper the agency was working with the manufacturer, Raytheon Co., air traffic controllers and its own engineers to speed up the new computer system. Raytheon officials called the tests unofficial and incomplete.
The Stars system is part of a massive technological upgrade underway with the nation's air traffic system.
The FAA's $1 billion contract with Raytheon calls for upgrading the controller work stations and supporting computers in 173 FAA and 199 Defense Department terminal control facilities, which oversee planes shortly after takeoff or on their initial approach to an airport.
The FAA also is in the process of replacing the computers used by controllers in en route centers, which control planes between terminal control facility$^{a}$
Each process has been plagued by costly delays. The Stars project, for example, is expected to cost $2.2 billion.

Lawyer relates Starr's tactics to Third Reich
The Associated Press
LITTLE ROCK, Ark. — The trial of President Clinton's former business partner, Susan McDougal, neared its close yesterday with her lawyer comparing Kenneth Starr's tactics to the Third Reich and a prosecutor bristling at inflammatory allegations.
In closing arguments, defense attorney Mark Geragos mocked

secutors who said they on l y wanted the truth from McDougal and were not out to get the president.

so offensive for them to say with a straight face they wanted to look to see if they could clear the president. How dumb do they think we are?" he asked.
something
McDoughal: Ontrial for refusing to answer a grand jury.
Throughout the five-week trial, McDougal's defense has been based on attacking the independent counsel's office. McDougal, charged with twice refusing to answer questions before a federal grand jury, testified that she feared prosecutors would charge her with perjury if she told the truth and did not implicate the Clintons.
Prosecutor Julei Myers tolse jurors that they had to weigh McDougal's credibility against that of two of Starr's prosecutors.
"She craved the spotlight. She enjoyed the attention. And that was probably her real reason for not testifying, not those lame excuses," Myers told jurors.
McDougal, who was convicted of four Whitewater-related felonies in 1996, testified that her former husband, James McDougal, later urged her to say she had sex with the president to mollify prosecutors eager to get Clinton for something and thereby escape further prosecution herself.
"Who is more credible? Two career federal prosecutors versus the defendant who is convicted of four felonies?" Myers asked, referring to her own co-workers on Starr's staff, Ed Jahn and Hickman Ewing, who testified in the trial.
She portrayed McDougal, who was convicted of fraud for her role in the Whitewater case, as a chronic liar and publicity-seeker who revealed in telling a phony story of persecution in TV interviews.
"If she was the con artist, the liar, that Myers made her out to be, wouldn't it have been easier to say I slept with President Clinton?" Geragos asked. "She could have gotten on any talk show she wanted."
"This is something you expect to see in the Third Reich," Geragos told the jury. McDougal has denied any intimate relationship with Clinton.
McDougal is charged with obstruction of justice and two counts of criminal contempt. The judge has limited what the jury can consider as her defense.

Pub winner adapting to Irish lifestyle
LISTOWEL, Ireland — The new owner hung some Philadelphia sports pennants behind the bar and brought in a big-screen TV. But except for those two touches, the pub hasn't changed much since the Finucane family handed over the keys last summer.
The Associated Press
Trevor O'Driscoll, a native Philadelphia, was handed the deed to the pub, the adjoining liquor store and the four-bedroom apartment upstairs after topping 65,000 entrants in a St. Patrick's Day contest.
All the recent Brown University graduate had to do was write a 50-word essay describing the perfect

pint of Guinness, waxing poetic on the stout's "swirl of black and white" in which "each particle of white desperately seeks its companion." Then, with nine other finalists, he threw some darts, drew a pint of stout and recited his essay for the judges.
The pub — worth more than
$200,000 — was his.
O'Driscoll quit his paralegal job in New York City and moved to Lis-towel in July with two friends.
nine months later, his pals are gone—they had to go home when
their visas expired. He works along side the three employees retained when he took charge, helping behind the bar on weekends and handling the business end at his kitchen table upstairs.
O'Drissell, who can trace his family's roots to nearby Cork, has made lots of friends, done a bit of traveling and joined the town's rugby club. But he admits to homesickness, which hit its peak when he was away from his family last Thanksgiving.
"But in the overall picture, it's been amazing," he said.
Hot-air balloon lands national museum spot
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — The Smithsonian Institution's newest exhibit is as tall as the Tower of Pisa, as heavy as a fighter plane and inflates to the volume of seven Olympic swimming pools. It's the silvery hot air balloon that carried two adventurers around the world in 20 days.
The balloonists, Brian Jones and Bertrand Piccard, received a hero's welcome yesterday at the National Air and Space Museum where their historic vehicle soon will be displayed alongside Charles Lindbergh's Spirit of St. Louis airplane, Orville and Wilbur Wright's 1903 flyer and the Apollo 11 command module from man's first mission to the moon.
The balloon, known as the Breitling Orbiter 3, will arrive at the museum after exhibits in Switzerland and London. The skin of the balloon, made of a thin, reflective synthetic material, will be displayed, but the main attraction will be the gondola.
The balloon, minus the hot air that makes it soar 181 feet, will be on display beginning in September.
The high-tech gondola — about the size of two minivans — has a bunk, toilet, kitchen area, control panel, oxygen and nitrogen tanks, solar
Since 1984, eight ballooning teams, including five from United States, have attempted the feat, Engen said. Jones and Piccard, 41, a doctor who specializes in psychiatry, were the first to succeed — in 19 days, 21 hours and 47 minutes.
The balloon landed March 21 in a desert in Egypt. Piccard opened the gondola hatch, put his feet in the sand and thought about Neil Armstrong, the first man to walk on the moon.
Armstrong was happy to be so far away, Piccard said.
They launched the balloon March 1 in the Swiss Alps. They spent six days above the Pacific Ocean. High above the Gulf of Mexico, the weary flyers became poisoned by carbon dioxide, a gas from their exhaled breath that built up inside the cabin.

panels, satellite phones and a fax machine.
"We just had to put our capsule into a position where Mother Nature could just take us in her arms. It was a wonderful feeling," he said.
Jones, 52, a British pilot and balloon instructor said the balloon didn't overcome nature during the 26,500-mile ride, instead, it harmonized with the wind.
New study reveals Amazon forest's alarming depletion
The Associated Press
Brazil's Amazon rain forest is being destroyed or badly damaged more than twice as fast as normally believed, according to a study that relied on airplane surveys and on-the-ground interviews instead of satellite images.
Nepstad put the loss at 17,000
The researchers said their method more accurately measured the effects of logging and burning in the rain forest.
"It's perhaps even more frightening," said Bill Mankin, director of the Global Forest Policy Project of two major environmental groups. The study was carried out largely by ecologist Daniel C. Nepstad of the Woods Hole Research Center in Massachusetts, and colleagues at the Institute of Environmental Research in Belem, Brazil.
They concluded that analysts who study satellite images — the main tool for gauging deforestation — are missing much of the damage from logging and fires.

UConn star to continue NCAA career despite trend
Khalid El-Amin gave a vote of confidence yesterday to the institution that made him famous.
By announcing that he will return for his junior year after helping Connecticut win the national championship, ElAmin assured men's college basketball of at least one experienced star.
And he may have reversed a trend of early
departures that has too often turned the greatest game on the planet into an NBA preparatory course.
Sam
Mellinger
sports@kansan.com
During UConn's title run, America fell in love with the pudgy, charismatic kid from Minnesota. He answered all the fat jokes with a warm smile and was featured in several profile stories describing his ambitious eating habits.
El Amin thrived in his new fame and was named to the Final Four all-tournament team after recording a total of 30 points and 10 assists in the two victories. Players such as Antonio McDyess have used an outstanding postseason performance to justify an early entry to the NBA.
And with a national championship, there figured to be little incentive for El-Amin to return.
There was warranted concern from pro scouts about his weight — at 5-10, he's listed at more than 200 pounds — but El-Amin clearly is among the nation's top point guards and would have been a first-round NBA selection.
Except fun.
"I think doing it a second time would be even better," he said at the announcement. "I want to come back and try to relive the great memories and experiences."
Of course, there likely are other reasons he is returning. Though El-Amin's leadership is unquestioned, NBA teams surely wondered how he would perform without consensus All-American Richard Hamilton. And another year and a few less pounds may boost his draft position into the top five, which would translate into more money.
I can't pretend to know his every thought, but clearly, this was not a decision based on money. El-Amin has bucked the trend of premature jumps to the NBA, a practice that has given some players early cash, but the temptation has deprived many more young men of the chance to thrive and develop.
Kevin Garnett started this fad unintentionally. He wanted to go to college, but when his test scores were too low, his options were junior college or the NBA. Not a hard decision.
So when Garnett was picked fifth and had a solid rookie season — 10 points, six boards per game — inexperienced players all over the country began submitting

Kansas drops doubleheader against Southwest Missouri
By Matt Tait
sports@kansas.com
Kansas sportswriter
In a night littered with home runs and arguments, the Kansas baseball team dropped a doubleheader to Southwest Missouri State last night at Hoglund Ballpark.
1980
The Jayhawks scored 10 runs in the first game, which most days would be enough to win, but wound up losing 16-10 as the Bears pounded out 17 hits and rallied their way through four Kansas pitchers. The Jayhawks lost the second game 11-4.
The home runs came out early in the first game as Southwest Missouri State's Ryan Howard launched a solo shot in the second inning off of Kansas starter Chris Williams, who lasted four innings, giving up five runs and striking out five.
Kansas' Chad King answered Howard's shot in the bottom of the inning when he belted a solo shot of his own to right center for his second homer of the year.
"I changed my stance a little, and I'm seeing the ball a lot better because of that." King said.
The home run gave the Jayhawks a 3-1 lead heading into the third inning. The Bears added one in the top of the third to cut the gap to one, but in the bottom of the inning Kansas freshman Corey Harrington hit a solo shot to push the lead back to two.
The Jayhawks knocked out Southwest Missouri State's starter in that inning, but reliever Matt Smith came in and pitched well.
Part of the reason Smith earned the win was because the Bears' bats came alive

Southwest Missouri State added three in the sixth, four in the seventh and four in the eighth and sealed the deal, as the runs were enough to outlast any Kansas rallies. Included in the three inning outburst were two more Bears home runs.
"We gave up 11 runs in 8 innings," coach Bobby Randall said. "That took us right out of the game. Our defense did OK, and our offense scored 10 runs — that should win the game. But we didn't pitch well tonight."

questioning umpires' calls. Southwest Missouri State coach Keith Guttn, assistant Brent Thomas and also Randall made several trips from the dugout to the field to argue calls.
Both games saw a bevy of managers
In the second game Randall was ejected by the umpire for venting his frustrations about a questionable call.
wayne I saw them wrong or maybe I saw them right — I don't know— but it's frustrating right now," Randall said.
The second game picked up right where the first game left off in terms of Southwest Missouri State offense. The Bears picked up a run in the first and five in the second to jump on the 'Hawks 6-0. The lead was pushed to 11-0 by the third inning before Kansas managed to score.
Three home runs in the first three innings provided the lead for the Bears and starter Andrew Jefferson held it. Jefferson gave up only four runs in six innings and picked up the win.
Three of the four runs came off of another King home run, a monster blast to straightaway center.
"I think everyone's frustrated," King said. "But if there is a silver lining, it's the fact that these aren't conference games."
Right fielder Doug Dreher, who had four hits in the two games, agreed with King and said that the team was still in contention.
"We just have to go out and play well this weekend, because we're still in the race for the eighth spot," Dreher said. "It's not that hard to turn it around as long as we play well. We've got a lot of games left."

Particularly the pole-vault program.
During his 15 years at Kansas, Attig has coached 26 conference champions, 25 All-Americans and two NCAA record breakers. He coached Pat Manson and Scott Huffman, pole vaulters still ranked in the top 10 among pole vaulters in the United States.

She placed second to teammate Candy Mason last year at the Big 12 Championships, then vaulted 12-1 1/2 at the NCAA Indoor Championships. The mark earned her All-American honors as a freshman.

Robertson sixth pick in USBL selection
Former point guard may play in Salina
By Mike Harrity sports@ukans.edu Kansas sportswriter
Williams told Robertson, who has hopes for an NBA career, that he had never seen a player go there and play poorly and still get drafted.
Robertson's play was far from poor.
Roy Williams had a simple message for Ryan Robertson before his former player left for Portsmouth, Va., to play in an NBA invitational last weekend.

"Coach Williams seems to think my chances of getting drafted are 50/50," said
By the end of the invitational, played in front of a slew of pro scouts, Robertson had made the all-tournament team and his team had won the championship. His best game came in the second of his team's three victories, when he scored 23 points, making nine of 11 shots. His totals for the weekend: 39 points, 19 assists and one turnover.

the United States Basketball League (USBL) selected Robertson with their first- round pick (the sixth overall).
The league, which employs the same rules as the NBA, provides players a chance to showcase their skills for scouts on a regular basis. During the 12 years of the league, 120 former USBL players have made it to the NBA.
The Cagerz have already signed former Javhawk Billy Thomas to a contract.
Robertson, however, will wait until after talking to Williams during their scheduled meeting today to make a decision.

"There are a lot of positives, but there are also some negatives. It would give me a chance to make a very small amount of money, but more importantly it would give me a chance to stay in shape."
If Robertson were to sign with the Cagerz, he would miss the first few weeks of the season, completing his degree in business administration.
The Cager 12 pay veterans salaries ranging from $400 to $450 a week and rookies about $300 weekly. The USBL season lasts from April 30 until the last week of June. NBA rookie and free-agent camps open in early July.

Whatever the future holds, Robertson says he's happy with the start of his professional basketball journey and will continue to seek the advice of his old coach.
"A lot of my decisions about playing pro is just a matter of what Coach Williams thinks is a good idea and going from there," said Robertson, who has yet to sign with an agent. "I'm happy with my performance in Portsmouth, and hopefully down the road will continue to go well for me."

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday:
Financial stress could spur you to take action this year. That's OK. It could help you to become wealthy. In April, you can see what you want, but you can't quite reach it yet. By May, the path should be more obvious, but you start running into problems. One of those develops in August, and another in November. Use them to motivate yourself to work harder. In December, things get relatively easy, but by January, there's a test. Be prepared. In February, the worst is definitely finished, and by March, you'll have a whole new point of view, and possibly a whole new status.
Aries (March 21-April 19): Today is a 4.
Circumstances that seem beyond your control could force you to take action. That's what it feels like, anyway. Actually, you're the one who got yourself into this position.
Taurus (April 20-May 20): Today is a 6.
If you're traveling today, take care. There will be delays, and they're not all your fault. Somebody else's impatience could cause you to off sched ule. You absolutely have to get there on time.
Gemini (May 21-June 21): Today is a 5.
The important thing to remember today is that you need to be practical. It'll be a lot more fun to be wildly impetuous, but that's not going to work out anywhere near as well for you. It'll be a lot more fun for a while.
Cancer (June 22-July 22): Today is a 4. There's almost too much opportunity to suit you today. You might feel overwhelmed. Don't try to manage it all by yourself. You need a good partner with skills complementing your own. Nurture one.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Today is a 5.
Ignore a friend who's trying to talk you into playing hooky. Today it's really not a good idea. The workload is pretty intense, and you sure are looking for a break, but look ahead just a little further.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Today is a 6.
Somebody else's emergency could get in the way of your plans for today. If it weren't for that, everything would be tranquil, easy and maybe even a little boring. Not much chance of that happening, though.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23); Today is a 4.
Two very enthusiastic people could clash
mightily today, but you're not afraid. You go
right into the middle of the battle armed only
with your wit and charming smile.
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Today is a 6.
You're learning quickly today, and that's a good thing, because you need to learn as fast as you can to keep up with a demanding schedule. There's also a demanding person who's about to drive you crazy.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Today is a 5.
If you run into the same old criticism today,
relax. Instead of fighting back, look to see
what you could give up. Not your point of
view, of course, by maybe the tension in your
body. Your smile is contagious.
Capricorn (Dec, 22-Jan. 19): Today is a 5.
Looks like good things are coming your way eventually. It may not seem like that right now, however. Instead of resisting a change that seems imminent, see if you can manage it instead.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Today is a 5.
You're in a bit of a crunch today, most likely.
Looks like there's a lagjam. Somebody's yapping at you to move more quickly, but that might not be possible, unless you try something different. Go for it.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Today is a 6.
Friends and loved ones may be kind of hard to tell apart today. Several people you know fit into both categories. That's good, because you can have plenty of support to get through a tough assignment.

SCORPIO
ANAHEIM, Calif. — Welcome to the club, Mo. The jinck club known as the Anaheim Angels.
It took Mo Vaughn more minutes to initiate himself as a member of the
HAWKS
Cleveland dugout for a foul pop, tumbled down the steps and sprained his left ankle.
His next time at-bat, the Angels first baseman hit a fly to left and crumpled in a heap in the batter's box, his ankle giving way. Then he told manager Terry Collins he couldn't go any more.
After a few moments, Vaughn got from the dugout floor, made it up the steps and onto the field. But he was limping.
"No one likes to go to the hospital," he said. "A lot of things go through your mind on the drive."
By the time Troy Glaus hit an RBI double in the eighth for the go-ahead run in Anheim's 6-5 win Tuesday, Vaughn was at the hospital being X-rayed.
"Fracture" was probably one of those things. But the X-rays were negative and the diagnosis was a sprain.
It's a possibility he will miss a few days," he said. "We're lucky, but sprains can be no fun. Sometimes a sprain can be almost as bad as a break."
Collins is accustomed to players getting hurt in weird ways.
"I won't commit until I know for sure, but I guarantee you it won't be too long," said Vaughn, who went 0-for-2 in his debut after signing a six-year deal with the Angels during the winter.
Vaughn doesn't know how long he will be sidelined.
"There are 161 more games and the most important thing is it's not broken and we've got a win."
ATLANTA — Howard Milstein withdrew his $800 million bid to buy the Washington Redskins yesterday when it became apparent his group lacked support from NFL owners.
Milstein withdraws bid for Redskin ownership
The league's finance committee failed to recommend approval of the sale, voting 3-3 with one abstention after a 4 1/2-hour meeting.
Milstein, a New York real estate developer and part-owner of the NHL's Islanders, then addressed all
the owners before announcing his withdrawal.
"In the end we complied with all the league's stated requirements and agreed to all of the league's additional conditions," he said. "But we recognize that a protracted, contentious dispute over ownership would cripple the Redskins and harm the community at a time when the team must focus on rebuilding for the future."
Milstein's withdrawal came after months of juggling finances and weeks of intense lobbying to gain control of one of the NFL's high-profile clubs.
The league expects Milstein's partner, Daniel Snyder to form another group and launch a bid, leading to yet another round of bidding.

For now, team president John Ken Cooke, son of the late Jack Kent Cooke, will continue to run the team, retaining coach Nov Turner and general manager Charley Casserly.
Several free agents said they were wary of signing with the Redskins because of the uncertainty, and the players under contract want the matter resolved.

Alumna hopes book will inspire girls
Dixon tells young players to dream big
By Matt James
mjames@kansan.com
Kansas sportswriter
Concepts such as "The point guard is the playmaker," and "Teamwork is the very heart of basketball," may seem elementary to avid basketball fans.
And that's exactly what Tamecka Dixon is shooting for.
Those ideas are the essence of her new book for young girls.
The 1994-97 Jayhawk and current WNBA star for the Los Angeles Sparks has co-written a book with Judith Love Cohen, intended for 8-14 year-old girls.
"You Can Be A Woman Basketball Player" chronicles Dixon's path from wide-eyed eighth-grader to college All-American as professional basketball opportunities for women unfolded before her.
It also explains the basic fundamentals of the game and suggests
specific drills for improving readers' basketball skills.
Anyone who has attended a Kansas women's basketball game knows what an impact the sport has on young women.
PENNY MCKAY
With parents, teachers, and even Girl Scout leaders, young women flock by the thousands to Allen Fieldhouse each season to see their idols perform. For two hours, they are riveted to the action, screaming for their favorite Jayhawks, lingering after

the season.
The book, which will be available in soft cover and hard cover, is the 11th in the "You Can Be A..." series Cohen began with her husband, David Katz. It is the first sports-related book in the series, but will
Katz was a teacher in the Los Angeles School District at the time and was discouraged when he asked the girls in his classes what they wanted to be in the future. The stereotypical "secretary" and "nurse" responses were commonplace.
Cohen is a registered electrical engineer with a master's degree in engineering from the University of Southern California. She began writing a monthly column for an engineering magazine in the 1970s. In her columns, she shared stories of female engineers and their triumphs in a male-dominated field.
not be the last. Plans for soccer and softball books already are under way.
In the late '80s, the two created Cascade Pass, Inc. in Marina Del Rey, Calif., which Katz originally used to produce rap songs encouraging students to stay in school. Then in 1991, Cohen wrote the book "You Can Be A Woman Engineer," followed in the ensuing years by "You Can Be A Woman Marine Biologist" and similar titles about other science-related fields.
Cohen's daughter, Rachel Siegel, had little interest in math and science. As an eighth grader in the early '70s, Siegel protested with others at her junior high to have a women's

basketball team at her school.
While attending a Los Angeles Sparks game in 1998, Siegel suggested to her mother that she should do a basketball book in her series. Cohen contacted the Sparks, who suggested Dixon would be a great feature for the book.
"The book is geared towards young girls, obviously," Dixon said. "It was a great experience. (Cohen) knew what she wanted to bring forth in the book and she did a wonderful job of that."
Dixon, who frequently works with young people through basketball camps, said she had wanted to write a book for some time, and was excited to be able to reach out to young females in a new way. She also has plans to write a book for adults, she said.
"This was definitely a step in that direction," she said.
"You Can Be A Woman Basketball Player" is dedicated to Dixon's parents, Portia Dixon and Russell Bowers, who she said provided the motivation for her basketball career and education.
SPARKS
"I had talked to them lot about writing a book before, and they had
really encouraged me to go forth with it," she said. "When I came to them with the children's book idea, they thought it was great. I have a lot of younger cousins, and they were very excited too."
Dixon also dedicated the book to her former Kansas coach, Marian Washington.
"She has done a great job for every woman basketball player who has been through Kansas," Dixon said. "She is a great role model, and she molded me as a person and a player."
The soft cover version of the book will also come with a compact disc featuring five inspirational songs and with Dixon as a narrator. Katz wrote the lyrics, which encourage concepts such as following your dreams and having team spirit.
"Everyone tells you it can't be done, and to see Tamecka accomplishing her basketball dreams is great." Cohen said. "It's a wonderful feeling to think you could be moving someone in a different direction."

Alexander relishes spring drills
Kansas quarterback Jay Alexander launches a pass during practice. Alexander played last season as a replacement for starting quarterback Zac Wegner, who suffered a series of concussions that knocked him out of the late-season lineup. Photo by Jay Sheperd/KANSAN
Everyone is entitled to one moment.
For Kansas quarterback Jay Alexander, his moment came in late October 1998 when he led the Jayhawks to an upset of then 17thranked Colorado. For that one week, Alexander was known simply as "the man."
By Michael T. Rigg
sports@kansan.com
Kansas sportwriter
Even though such a name is usually reserved for basketball players around the hoops-crazy Kansas campus, Alexander took the newfound success in stride and was called upon the following week to repeat the feat against Kansas State.
The result was a 54-6 shellacking at the hands of the Wildcats, and talk around campus turned off the new quarterback.
Spring drills have given Alexander a chance to look forward to the future.
"It was great," Alexander said of his sudden success. "I just had a good time out there playing, helping my team out as best I could."
But during spring drills, Alexander has found himself back with the second team, watching quarterback Zac Wegner toss the pigskin like he never missed a beat.
Alexander, who arrived at the University last fall, said he was counting on his experiences and knowledge of the system to carry him during his second round of practices with the team.
"I know so much more about the offense," Alexander said, comparing himself now to where he was last fall. The added knowledge of the offense may or may not mean more playing time for Alexander in the upcoming season, Allen said.
"It's critical for him to get better." Allen said. "He did a good job for us, but he kind of tailed off. It's important for him to continue to climb that ladder."

On a college tennis team, every position, from No. 1 singles to No.6 singles, shares equal importance.

wining consistency in the tower halfway Sunday against Colorado, Blakeney, 10-1 this season, won his 10th-straight match, the longest winning streak since Trent Tucker won 18 in 1997. Before Sunday, the season's longest winning streak had been nine by No. 18 LeUlis.
Blakeney also has proved that he can win under pressure. In the team's first Big 12 Conference match, Blakeney claimed the decisive victory against Nebraska by defeating Kal Rieke, helping the team to a 4-3 win. He beat Rieke in three sets 6-4, 3-6, 6-4.
"I didn't know I was trying to break Luis's record until I saw it in the paper," Blakeney said. "I was very surprised."
His win Sunday contributed to the team's 4-3 victory against Colorado in a match where the upper half of the lineup faltered, leaving it to freshmen Blakeney, Alex Barragan and Rodrigo Echaguarà to produce the victory.

Teammate Kenny Powell said Blakeney contributed to the team by providing a strong work ethic and unselfish attitude.
"He's a coach's dream," Powell said. "He's not arrogant, and he's very open and willing to learn. He works hard, he isn't selfish and he puts the team first. Even without winning 10 in a row, he brings a lot to the team because that's just who he is."

Robinson is running...out of time, out of space, and out on students.
- 90 percent of students are in favor of new a facility, now,and want to help pay for it.
- The Recreation Task Force met with and heard from thousands of students.
- They want a new facility, now.
- I the time to give it to them is now.
- Without a new facility, Robinson will continue to...
- Provide fewer and fewer hours for students use, and more hours for academic use.
- Provide the least amount of space for the largest student body in Kansas.
- Compare poorly with K-State, who's Peterson rec. center is twice the size of Robinson.
Why Now?
- Bond prices are lower today than the have been for years.
- Every year we wait, inflation raises the cost of a new facility $400,000.
- Our generation has an unique opportunity to leave behind a campus service like the union was left for us.
Guarantees
- At Kansas State, when they passed a similar referendum, recreation became the number one service to students on campus. That can happen here at KU.
- With a building of this new facility, recreation space at KU will double
- If you vote yes for the referendum your recreation fee will only be raised once, this is guaranteed from the State bonding procedures.

KU students cheer for Chiefs

While many students were at play on the beach or lounging at home during spring break, eight University of Kansas students were training for the upcoming NFL season.
The Kansas City Chiefs cheerleading squad conducted its annual tryouts on March 20-21, an event that brings out almost 200 women from around the Midwest each year. The tryouts are composed of three rigorous rounds that judge competitors on everything from public speaking to toe touches.
"Tryouts were intimidating because there are so many talented girls competing for so few spots," said Stephanie McCarty, Kansas City, Kan., junior. "But the overall feel of the tryouts was laid back. All the girls were real down to earth."
After tryouts are completed and 11-14 new women are chosen for the squad of 32, spring training begins.
The women meet three times a week for spring training, and sessions generally last anywhere from three to five hours. In addition to the scheduled training, the women on the squad are supposed to lift weights three times a week on their own.
With the amount of time being on the squad takes, the women are forced to manage their time wisely. They train more than thirty hours a week, so cheering for the Chiefs is as demanding as manual labor and as time-consuming as a full-time job.
"It can be difficult at times, especially driving to the Arrowhead Stadium practice facility and back three times a week, but if you want it bad, you'll find the motivation to do anything," McCarty said.
Though most of the sports-minded public views cheerleaders as fans with pompoms, the Kansas City Chiefs cheerleading squad plays a vital role in the community.
In addition to more than 650 public appearances, most of which raise money for charities, the squad also organizes an annual auction.
"We not only represent the Chiefs, but we also serve as ambassadors to the community," said Ann-Marie Johnson, Quincy, Ill., senior.
Also cheering for the Chiefs this season from the University of Kansas are Elizabeth Burgess, Kiley Potter, Michelle Reiter, Kimberly Roberts and Aisha Steele.

El-Amin announces he'll stay at UConn
The Associated Press
STORRIS, Conn. — Khalid El-Amin will bypass the NBA draft and return for his junior year in hopes of leading Connecticut to another national title.
The 5-foot-10 point guard helped guide the Huskies (36-2) to their first national championship with a 77-74 victory against
victory against Duke last week.
NCAA
"I think doing it a second time would be even better," he said today. "I want to come back and try to relieve the
great memories and experiences we all shared in the recent NCAA championship.
I'm very interested in playing with a different group of guys ... and helping introduce them to the highest level of college basketball."
Coach Jim Calhoun said the extra year would allow El-Amin to develop further.
"Khalid obviously played a major role in our national championship journey," Calhoun said. "I believe he will enjoy an even more dynamic year as he expands his wonderful leadership qualities."
Scoring leader Richard Hamilton is still considering whether to return for his senior year.
"He gave me no indication about any kind of announcement anytime soon," Calhoun said. "He's enjoying the fruits of his accomplishment."
El Amin has been a starter in 71 games and became the third UConn player to reach 1,000 points as a sophomore.
For the past two seasons, he has averaged 14.9 points and 4.1 assists. He finished second on the team this season in scoring at 13.8 points a game and led the squad in assists with 140.
Snyder leaves Duke, becomes Tigers coach
The Associated Press
COLUMBIA, Mo. — Mike Krzyzewski wasl just one bit of advice when it came time for his young understudy at Duke to go out on his own — find some place worthy.
Quin Snyder found it yesterday at Missouri.
"The best advice I received from the guy who has been my mentor, Coach K, was to try to find a place worthy of my passion," Snyder said as he was named to succeed Norm Stewart as Tigers basketball coach.
It's something I've dreamed about."
"Now it's my turn to show you I'm worthy of this passion," Snyder said, "I'm unbelievably excited about this opportunity.
Snyder, born the year Stewar began coaching at Missouri, wa

He becomes the youngest coach in the Big 12 Conference at 32, succeeding a coach who resigned only six days earlier after winning 634 games in 32 seasons.
Chancellor Richard Wallace said, "I saw in our brief meeting that fire—that conviction—that can lead us to a higher plane."
Snyder signed a five-year contract and inherits a team that went 20-9 last season and lost to New Mexico in the first round of the NCAA tournament. He was the only one of the three finalists in Missouri's rapid-fire search with no head coaching experience.
"I'm going to work like crazy," Snyder said. "I'm as hungry as it eets."
Although Missouri tied for second in the Big 12 last season, the Tigers have struggled in recent years. The NCAA tournament appearance was their first in four seasons, and nine players have transferred in the last five seasons.
Weight loss helps put Williams in good standing for NFL draft
The Associated Press
SAN DIEGO — There was less of Ricky Williams on display during his personal workout for NFL scouts, which was a good

"We liked it," said coach Chris Palmer of the Cleveland Browns, who hold the first pick in the draft April 17-18. "What he did today was allow a lot of scouts,
That said, Brown's officials don't have a clear cut choice in mind. They are considering Kentucky quarterback Tim Couch, Oregon quarterback Akili Smith and Williams. The Browns are scheduled to work out Couch Sunday in Lexington, Ky.
Williams, the Heisman Trophy winner from Texas, went through a 2-hour workout Tuesday at the University of California-San Diego for scouts, coaches and general managers.
Williams, the NCAA career rushing leader with 6,279 yards, also made an impression with coach Andy Reid of the Philadelphia Eagles, who have the second pick in the draft.
"The No. 1 thing was that he has dropped the weight," Reid said. "We understood that he had been on the banquet circuit. But he lost it and he looked sharp. That showed me a little
something."
The hardest thing Williams gave up?
"Oh, all sweets. Doughnuts, cheesecake. That's about it. Just sweetes," he said. "Right now I'm going to a doughnut shop."
Palmer said Williams was timed anywhere from 4.6 seconds to 4.72 running against the wind in the 40, and anywhere from 4.43 to 4.52 in two heats with the wind. Two other college players who were being timed, including Smith's cousin, Marquis, suffered hamstring injuries on the cold, blustery day.
Williams said he would like to go to Cleveland as the first pick.
Williams and his agent, Leland Hardy, were scheduled to visit six teams in three days — St. Louis and New Orleans yesterday, Washington and Philadelphia today and Cleveland and Indianapolis Friday.

ACLU, SUA to tempt students with screening
The University of Kansas chapter of the American Civil Liberties Union and SUA will sponsor a screening of Martin Scorsese's The Lest Temptation of Christ at 9 tonight at Woodruff Auditorium in the Kansas Union.
Buddy Lloyd, president of the KU ACLU, said that the organization had approached SUA about showing the movie on campus to celebrate civil liberties at KU.
He said other universities have banned the film.
"It's kind of a gift to the student body from the ACLU," Lloyd said. "That's why it's free."
He said that there would be a forum after the movie in the Kansas Union to discuss free speech and civil liberties issues. The forum will feature Eddie Lorenzo, general counsel for the American Civil Liberties Union of Kansas and West-em Missouri. Lorenzo is a former president and the founder of the KU ACLU.

Big tobacco settlement swaps ad icon for infant
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Missouri's $6.7 billion settlement with big tobacco has made a baby out of the Marlboro man.
A cigarette billboard on the city's West Side came down on Wednesday, replaced by one featuring a gigging infant.
The new advertisement, paid for by cigarette maker Philip Morris as part of the national settlement, notes that each year secondhand smoke sends 0.000 babies to the hospital.
Missouri Attorney General Jay Nixon said the new ad was the first of 170 anti-smoking billboards that will go up around the state within the next two weeks. Kansas will get 15.
The new ads will be in place by April 23.
"The billboards are an important part of the biggest settlement in state history." he said. "More than just money, this agreement with the tobacco companies will help teach kids about the dangers of smoking."
to counter the effects of decades of pro-smoking ad campaigns — campaigns that have produced such cultural icons as Joe Camel and the Marlboro Man.

the money will come from the big four tobacco companies; Philip Morris, R.J. Reynolds, Brown & Williamson and Lorillard.
The Missouri and Kansas settlements will return billions of dollars to the states in an attempt to cover the costs state incurred providing health care for residents made ill by smoking. During the next 25 years, Missouri will get about $6.7 billion. Kansas will get about $1.5 billion.
Globe denies blackmail attempt in Ramsey case
BOULDER, Colo. — A former freelance writer for the Globe says his editors at the supermarket tabloid talked about trying to blackmail a Boulder detective into granting an interview about the JonBenet Ramsey case.
Jeff Shapiro, who researched the Ramsey case for the Globe, said his editors considered using as leverage a rumor that Detective Steve Thomas' mother committed suicide when Thomas was a boy. The rumor later proved false.
Craig Lewis, a Globe editor, acknowledged sending Thomas photographs of his long-dead mother days after the detective resigned from the Ramsey case in frustration. But Lewis denied it was an effort to pressure the detective.
Thomas, who is writing a book about the case, declined comment.
Globe editor Tony Frost said, "There was no threat to blackmail anyone."
Shapiro was one of the first tabloid reporters who arrived in Boulder to cover the Ramsey case. Shapiro said in yesterday's Washington Post that he taped some conversations with his editors because he feared some of their strategies would jeopardize his career.
Shapiro took the recordings to the FBI, but the detective didn't press charges and the agency declined to investigate. Shapiro then took them to CBS's "48 Hours," which aired the tapes last night.
Parent of tree-climbing kids socked with fine
NEW YORK - Children climbing trees? This has got to stop!
That's pretty much the message Anthony Avellino said he got from two park rangers last month. They handed him a $1,000 ticket after his daughters, ages 9 and 11, and their 11-year-old friend were caught climbing a Japanese white pine in Central Park.
"My children have been climbing trees in Central Park for nine years," Avellino said. "At least give me a warning."
But officials said it was too late — the tree was damaged. They said they will bring photographs of broken boughs to environmental court to prove it.
Avellino, who did not immediately return calls to his home, told the Daily News he would fight the ticket, which cites him for "destruction, defacement or abuse of a tree."
Parks Department representative Edward Skyler said yesterday that the trees, which have soft boughs, are not indigenous to New York and cost several thousand dollars apiece.
Comic has 'moronic' humor
The Associated Press
Continued from page 1A
Poundstone, who has been doing stand-up comedy for 20 years, said she often covered topics such as travel, kids, cats and, of course, politics.
people studying or taking tests," she said.
But nothing is too planned.
"I've found that I've been more fertile than usual when I don't use pen and paper — that's just secretarial work," she said. "A lot of my 'writing' is done in my head when I'm doing things like taking long drives or scrubbing the kitchen floor."
Poundstone has also had experience in the world of television, doing voices for several cartoons and doing HBO specials, but she said stand-up comedy was the medium she loved most.
"In television, you have to sit in on meetings and explain why things you want to do will be funny, but when you sit down and explain them they don't seem as funny anymore." she said.
"That's enough to stay sharp as a comic, pay the rent and have time for the kids," she said.
Poundstone, 39, lives with three of her foster children, nine cats and three rabbits in her Los Angeles home.
In recent years, Poundstone has taken her foster children on the road, but now they stay at home.
"It was troublesome in the past when we got home and they asked where the room
service was," she said. "I don't want to have spoiled kids."
Poundstone explained her fondness for stand-up comedy.
"I get a chance to stand up and explain my perceptions of things," she said. "I think a lot of people are lonely because they don't get to measure their perceptions of things with others."
But they don't necessarily have to be deep perceptions. Poundstone admits that she has a "monoric" sense of humor.
"The funniest thing that I've ever seen is someone with toilet paper stuck to their foot unbeknownst to them," she said.
"I'm still hoping to get a raise," she said.
And after 20 years of stand-up comedy, Poundstone seems to have only one complaint:
Melineh Kurdian, Wichita junior, said that she probably would go to the show Sunday.
"I'm a big fan," she said. "I don't want to miss her this time through."
Kurdian said that she often caught a particular Poundstone HBO performance from the late '80s on television, and that she would watch it again and again.
"Her delivery is just so good — she's hilarious," Kurdian said, explaining her reason for repeatedly watching the rerun.
The event is sponsored by Student Union Activities.
Tickets for Sunday's show are $10 for students with a KUID and $12 for the general public, and can be bought at the SUA, Murphy Hall and Lied Center box offices.

Diversity requirement fails; dissenters cite 'vagueness'
Chris Hopkins
chopkins@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
The debate about the U.S. Diversity Requirement ended yesterday after two and a half years when it was voted down by more than a 2-1 margin.
The results of the University of Kansas College of Liberal Arts and Sciences Assembly mail-in ballot were announced yesterday by CLAS Dean Sally Frost Mason. The final vote was 129 for and 273 against the requirement.
Mason said that it was too bad that the initiative hadn't passed but that the University would continue to encourage diversity.
"I encourage the faculty to continue the dialogue in positive ways that will convey to our students the importance of understanding and
working with those who may be dif-
different from ourselves," she said.
leren from abroad.
The proposal would have required students in CLAS seeking bachelor of arts or general studies degrees to take a class concerning diversity in America. The class could count toward all other requirements except the non-Western civilization requirement.
Don Marquis, professor of philosophy, said he was glad his colleagues were intelligent enough to vote against the requirement.
Marquis said that the proposal was far too vague and open to interpretation.
He said that he had asked in a CLAS meeting if a class about Methodists or other non-majority groups would count and was told that the minority needed to have been oppressed.
"We've got to make some kind of determination of who is and who
isn't oppressed, and w'd obviously disagree," Marquis said.
Aaron Profitt, Overland Park sophomore and CLAS Assembly member, said that the vagueness of the proposal and personal agendas could control the program.
"A certain bread and openness seems to me to be inescapable," Lester said.
Kathryn Conrad, assistant professor of English, helped with the proposal but said that rather than adjusting it, the committee that wrote it probably would explore other avenues.
Cheryl Lester, associate professor of English and initiator of the proposal, said that defining diversity more concretely could omit important groups.
"I don't think there are any immediate plans to restart, but the dialogue will continue," Conrad said.

Poet recounts history of Kiowa
Pulitzer Prize winning author speaks at KU
A night in November in 1833.
By Dan Curry
dcurry@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
The Kiowa people, asleep in teepees, were awoken by the light of a fire storm of falling stars, meteors like moons, coming across the bow of the earth.
"Spectacular" seems almost too tame a word for it, said N. Scott Momaday, Kiowa poet and literary giant, recounting the history of the Kiowa people to about 200 attendees to the first of two Eberhard Colloquium yesterday.
Momaday said the Kiowa saw a fortune of change in the stars, an event which The New York Times reported in an article dated November 14, 1833.
"It was within just a few years of the
falling stars that an epidemic of small pox wiped out one third of the plains population," he said. "The buffalo were on the verge of extinction. The first treaty was signed within a generation."
Momaday, who won a Pulitzer Prize for his novel "The Way to Rainy Mountain," "frequently intermixes history, personal experience and the stories of his people in his novels.
He focused on "The Way to Rainy Mountain" during the first talk and on his new novel, "In the Bear's House," during his second.
during his play," "Children of the Sun," was produced at the Lied Center early this semester.
Luci Tapahonso, associate professor of English and poet, introduced Momaday using a Navajo phrase that means, "one who can speak beautiful."
"They say in Navaho that people are known by the way they speak," Tapahonso said. "Dr. Momaday is a person who speaks beautifully."
He told the story of the seven sisters and their brother. The brother, pretending he was a bear, chased his sisters, who pretended to be afraid.
With a resonate voice, Momaday recounted his earliest memories of stories he heard his family tell him.
But then the boy turned into a bear
Momaday said. Terrified, the sisters
fied for their lives. As they passed a tree
stump, the stump spoke to them.
They did, and the tree stump grew until it became the natural rock formation that people call the Devil's Tower, located in the Black Hills of Wyoming, Momaday said. The sisters rose to the sky and became the stars of the Big Dipper.
"If you will climb upon me, I will save you," Momaday said, recounting the story.
"Those stars are my sisters," Momday said, whose Kiowa name, Rock Tree Boy, refers to the Devil's Tower.

Chancellor sets May 1 deadline for decision

Fall break issue to be settled
Chancellor Robert Hemenway said yesterday that he would make a decision by May 1 on a calendar proposal that includes a fall break but that he still had questions about the plan.
Hemenway told University Council members he had asked Provost David Shulenburger for information from other universities about whether those schools experienced an "early departure syndrome."
"The cruz of my decision is going to be, is this going to make for a better KU or will it be a detriment to KU?" he said in a question-and answer session before the council.
A plan that would revise the academic calendar to include a two-day break in mid-October and a two-week intersession in January passed the Senate Executive Committee and University Council earlier this year. It also would shorten final week from six to five days.
The proposal is widely supported by students.
Laurence Drapar, professor of molecular biosciences, said the calendar's other positive aspects should not be overlooked.
Hemenway said the calendar had features he supported, such as the intersession during winter break.
"Full break is only one small part," he said.
"That block of time gives us the chance to do some very creative things," he said.
He said he did not anticipate any strong objection from the Board of Regents, which would have to approve the calendar before it took effect.
But Seth Hoffman, Nunemaker senator and Delta Force candidate for student body president, said after the council meeting that he had doubts about Hemenway's enthusiasm for the calendar.
For all the monkism that has been building in this effort, I think everybody was hoping he would be more approving of it," Hoffman said. "I would really like to see it done as soon as the Legislature is over."
Hemenway also discussed the status of a faculty salary increase before a conference committee of the state Legislature. He said he was optimistic that faculty at Regents universities would get close to a 5 percent increase in pay.
"These are the times we ought to be making up for this deficit," he said, referring to a 12 percent gap between KU faculty salaries and those at peer institutions. "This can be done if we're willing to invest in the intellectual capital in this room."
he needs to声援 He said council members should not hesitate to contact their legislators and express their views.
Faculty members also questioned Hemenway about online classes and what the University's goals were. Hemenway said the administration was willing to support efforts with online education that grew out of individual departments.
"Any KU instruction is expected to set the standard," he said.

But Hemenway said that, although the plan would mean change for the University, he was not convinced the change would be negative
"I have a feeling that no matter what incarnation the bill takes, KU is going to be hurt," said T.P. Srinivasan, professor of mathematics, at a meeting of the University Council yesterday.
He said the different elements of post-secondary education Regents universities, community colleges and technical colleges were often played off against one other in requests for state funding.
"We've been whispsaid by this fragmented structure," Hemenway said. "But this way we would have one voice."
The bill would abolish the Board of Regents and re-establish a new board in July. It would divide the board into three commissions: One for oversight of four-year universities, one for community and technical colleges, and one for coordination between the other two.
Hemenway said that among his concerns about the bill was whether a nine-member board
"That's a lot of institutions," he said.
could effectively govern six universities, 19 community colleges and 12 technical colleges.
The Senate passed the bill last month, and the House Education Committee amended it to add a funding component for community colleges. Yesterday's House vote was 76-46. A final vote was scheduled for this morning.
Passage would return the bill to the Senate, which is expected to reject the financial provisions and send the measure to a conference committee to work out a compromise during the Legislature's wrap-up session at the end of the month.

Hill, an incumbent studying chemical engineering, was elected to the Engineering Student Council for next year. She said that she wanted engineering students to become more involved in student organizations, and vice versa.
"Engineers have a lot to offer the University, and the University has a lot to offer engineers," Hill said. "Engineers can offer the campus a
problem-solving approach, and the University can benefit from that."
Marshall, an incumbent candidate studying computer engineering and a member of the Engineering Student Council and the National Society of Black Engineers, said that if elected, he would ensure that engineering students' ideas about issues were represented.
She said that if elected, she would visit student organizations at least once per semester and would set up office hours in Learned Hall to be more accessible to her constituents.
He said he would visit student organizations and organize an engineering listserv, a monthly forum for engineering students and an information table at Learned about Senate and KU organizations.
Before answering most of the questions from the moderator and students in the audience, Hill consulted with Brett Stoppel, Delta Force incumbent candidate for off campus senator and engineering student. Korb Maxwell, YOU candidate for student body president, aided the YOU candidates.
Mohseni, a chemical and biomedical engineering student and member of the American Institution of Chemical Engineers, said that she wanted a higher voter turnout within the School of Engineering. She said that if elected she would make decisions based on what she thought was best for engineering students by gaining her constituents' input and serving office hours at Learned.

Proposal's 'zero-tolerance' policy overreaches in handling hate crime
A proposal with good intentions is heading to a ballot near you.
The petition asks, "Do you support a zero-tolerance policy with respect to hate crimes and sexual assault at KU? Zero-tolerance is defined as mandatory and permanent expulsion for any student enrolled at the University who is convicted of a hate crime and/or sexual assault."
When Student Senate elections begin Wednesday, the ballots will allow students to vote to support or oppose this zero-tolerance policy for hate crimes. Should the proposal pass, any student enrolled at the University who is convicted in a criminal court could be expelled.
Though the University certainly cannot endorse such violent crimes, its ability to punish them must be clearly restricted. Students should vote against the proposal when they go to the polls.
According to the KU Public Safety Office, there have been two hate crimes in 1999 and three in 1998 and 1997 combined.
A freshman in Oliver Hall was
Students who commit hate crimes off-campus could face expulsion from University.
arrested March 18 and charged with aggravated arson after allegedly burning a large swastika into the carpet on Oliver's third floor.
Less than three weeks earlier, an Asian-American living in Oliver reported that a swastika had been burned into his room's door.
Matt Caldwell, a member of the Action Alliance who helped draft the proposal, said that incidents of hate crimes had risen during the past five to 10 years.
Caldwell worked on the proposal because he thought hate crimes were especially troubling at universities. Because there are no penalties associated with hate crimes specifically, Caldwell said the proposal would help make an example of violent criminals.
The University's ability to make such an example, however, should
be kept on a short leash. Now, if a KU student is convicted in a court of law of a hate crime, on campus or off, that student may face expulsion. Now, a student only may be expelled after a hearing by a board of faculty and students.
If mandatory expulsion is to be implemented, only students who commit these crimes on campus — such as the aforementioned Oliver resident — should be subject to it.
It is of no business to University administrators to punish a student for his or her activities while not on campus. Giving administrators the power to punish hate crimes off campus — which are of no direct consequence to the University — allows them to punish students for beliefs.
A liberal society must allow for free expression of beliefs, hateful or not, n an institution of higher learning, punishing one's beliefs becomes doubly heinous.
Students should demand an antihate crime policy from the University, but the wording on next week's ballot takes it too far.

Commercialism taints University's mission
I read with interest your front page article yesterday on smart card usage at the University of Kansas and elsewhere. I also noted a filler advertisement for Coke in Thursday's University Daily Kansan. Is it only me, or are you and others struck by the singular advantage these companies have at KU?

To me that smacks of favoritism and elitism of the worst kind.

cannot access their accounts on campus.
Nor can many other folks who choose financial institutions besides Commerce Bank have such access.
It also seems odd that Penn State can develop the technology for an open system where all are welcome, but KU can't. If it truly is beyond the scope for KU to develop said technology — or copy it from Penn State — then the least the University can do is make a place on campus where those of us who are not in the Commerce fold can make ATM transactions without the surcharge we are now obliged to pay.

week ago, in this very space, I predicted that the 1999 Student Senate election between the YOU coalition and Delta Force would contain little clash
and Delta Force worth to or real argument and lots of bickering. Both predictions came true.

opinion @ kansan.com
It started last week when incumbent YOU candidates Ben Walker and R.J. Woodring filed a complaint with the elections commission alleging that Delta Force violated campaign rules by speaking with '97 Delta Force presidential candidate Jason Fitzell. Although Walker admitted he had "no smoking
gun" and nothing "specific," he and Woodring filed the charges which were dismissed at a commission hearing Monday night. On Tuesday, the two waved around an e-mail posted on the Senate's listserv that proved little more than the dire need for Fizell to take up a new hobby.
Monday's presidential/vice-presidential debate debate also confirmed the assertion that there are few genuine disagreements in terms of policy goals between the coalitions. Opening statements from both sides promised forthcoming revelation of true differences in their positions — promises that never came to fruition.
The candidates held similar views on citywide busing, diversity, programs for campus safety and other hard-working taxpayers paying for more of our education (good). They were also both sour on the creation of a Student Judicial Board and giving students the choice not to finance student groups promoting views that they disagree with.
Even the issue of corporatization held no friction. Delta Force, which passes out bright blue flyers proclaiming that it is "not for sale," apparently was. Mary Liu, Delta Force vice presidential candidate, referred to the money the contracts brought in as "nice" and may as well have been reading from the YOU platform when
The story of YOU's platform development provides a perfect insight into its leaders' personalities. Korb Maxwell, YOU presidential candidate, proudly tells of the surveys and 50-person focus group that molded YOUR's issues and positions "whether we liked them or not." Perhaps it was this same slickness and political professionalism which then later allowed him to field a question on leadership with a straight face. Dede Seibel, vice presidential candidate for YOU, almost was annoyingly polished — responding to virtually every question with a peppy "I'm so glad you asked this question!" and then moving out from behind the podium à la Elizabeth Dole.
she qualified her support with the view that more student representation was needed when making these deals.
Delta Force, to use presidential candidate Seth Hoffman's words, is "the loose, hip, couches-out-on-the-beach coalition" — characteristics of debatable value in student government. Liu, clearly the most apolitical of the four candidates onstage, took only three of the twelve questions posed by panelists and even those seemed to be answered reluctantly.
Still, it would be misleading to say that the coalitions are nothing more than carbon copies of each other. Granted, they support many of the same issues in much the same language, but cavernous differences exist in style and personality.
The story of this election, two stylistically different coalitions pursuing the same unquestionably popular policies with little effectiveness, could be summed up in the last question of Monday night's debate.
State Rep. James Garner's question concerned the issue of rising tuition and what the candidates' plans were to address it. Hoffman stated that his coalition would get "a little rowdy"—in Topeka if necessary while Maxwell plans to send "a professional lobbying effort" to the state capital. More than likely, the legislature would pat them both on the head and shoo them back to Mt. Oread.

Shabby show at debate may launch wrong group
The Senate debate Monday was the first real show of the campaign. Although it's true that both coalitions have been manning tables for a couple
of weeks and the Jason Fitzell controversy was a quick blip on the scandal radar, the campaign barely has been noticeable up to this point.
PLEASE TAKE A PHOTO OF ME.
The debate is an excellent way to gauge candidates. Historically, it was debate that buried Nixon and elevated Kennedy. And it is debate that shows why Delta Force candidates Seth Hoffman and Mary Liu don't have a chance.
Nick Bartkoski opinion@kansan.com
If you went to the debates to listen, you would have seen how often YOU decided it was better to talk than to actually answer a question.
Not to say that Delta Force candidates answered every question, but the YOU coalition answered nearly every question with some iteration of how they want to bring everything back to the students — a noble idea, but one I could have taken from their campaign material. Furthermore, by saying "we want to take this back to the students" they often seemed to be saying "we have no opinion or plan at this time."
YOU did a lovely song and dance when asked by a panelist if they would represent non-greek students. Presidential candidate Korb Maxwell mentioned how coalitions had been greek-based in the past, but not this year. He emphasized how diverse the coalition was, and how they picked candidates that were in other leadership positions around campus. Furthermore, he stressed how YOU was bringing a lot of fresh faces to the table. A wonderful story, just not an entirely true one.
YOU does bring more fresh faces. I initially doubted that because most of the people I knew on the coalition were senators. But only 22 percent of the YOU candidates are returners. That's not bad, but the "diversity" is a different issue.
Forty-nine percent of YOU candidates belong to a fraternity or sorority.
Unless I misunderstand living arrangements, there's no way that 49 percent of KU students are in a fraternity or sorority. I also find it hard to believe that most organizations are led by greeks, thereby forcing YOU into the position to only find greeks in leadership positions around campus.
Most shocking about this diversity is that 85 percent of YOU's Nunemaker candidates
On the other hand, Maxwell maintains that what this issue needs is better coordination skills, ones that YOU will bring to the table. The question is, what has Maxwell done this year?
What YOU did well was present ideas. At the debate was a YOU coalition that was polished, prepared and knew the issues. Maxwell and running mate Dede Seibel did an excellent job in presentation and gave the entire campaign a glossy finish.
One of the major hurdles citywide busing has is a Kansas law prohibiting the use of student fees to finance city improvements like citywide busing. To expand KU on Wheels to accomplish this goal, the Kansas Legislature would need to pass a law granting an exception. If Maxwell truly believed in citywide busing, wouldn't he have used his position as legislative director to lobby the legislature to make this change?
Hoffman and Liu didn't show those presentation skills. Liu and Hoffman would switch speaking duties in the middle of a question. Instead of showing how they're running a shared campaign, they looked like a shoddy group that didn't have its act together and had no business even running for the student body presidency.
Further, the second Hoffman mentioned protests as a means of change. I shook my head. What he did by that comment was alienate many middle-line people who are ultimately apathetic. They'll vote, but finding people to march down Jayhawk Boulevard or occupy Strong Hall is an uphill battle, and my guess is that these middle-line people will vote for the cooler-headed, lobbyist effort Maxwell suggested.
You also can see these differences when they get down to issues. Both coalitions are trying to make citywide busing their issue. The difference is that the YOU coalition looked at the issue and said it was something they needed to fix. Delta Force looked at the issue a year ago and began working to fix it. The efforts of Delta Force senate candidates Holly Krebs, Mark Bradshaw and Nicole Skalla to implement this plan through petitions and determination show what activism can do.
are members of the greek system. I find it extremely hard to believe that 85 percent of freshmen and sophomores are greek. Diverse? It's possible. Not strongly greek? Try again.
Based on their performances, Maxwell and Seibel are going to win, and that's too bad because Hoffman and Liu are probably the better choice.

Monday debate to highlight party platforms
By Nadia Mustafa
nmustafa@kansan.com
nkansan staff writer
Students will have a chance to step up to the microphone and question Student Senate candidates about campaign issues at an informal debate at noon Monday at Wescoe Beach.
Student body presidential and vice presidential candidates hope to highlight the differences between their coalitions by answering students' questions about their campaign platforms.
The debate will be more student-oriented than last Monday's formal debate, at which state representatives and administrators served as panelists.
Korb Maxwell, YOU candidate for student body president, said that he wanted to focus on a tuition cap and a course retake policy. He said that the candidates did not have an opportunity to concentrate on platform issues at last Monday's debate because administrators on the panel mainly asked questions pertinent to their interests.
"A lot of students are asking what the differences between the two coalitions are," Maxwell said. "I want to get out those issues that are not in the Delta Force platform at all. We don't feel that anyone really knows what the issues are out there."
Seth Hoffman, Delta Force candidate for student body president, said that he hoped a lot of students would attend the debate. He said that he looked forward to the debate because it would be less formal than the last one.
"The last debate felt a little more stiff and formal." Hoffman said. "This one will be a little looser. Students will have a chance to see how the candidates think on their feet better than they did at the last debate."
Candy Crockett, Omaha, Neb., sophomore, said that she would attend the debate to hear the candidates' views on controversial issues such as a new campus recreation center.
"I'm interested in how they're going to get over raising our student fees," she said. "I don't think many students want a new gym."
Some other students were more apathetic toward Senate.
Michael McShea, Stockton senior, said he did not want to go to the debate because he was tired of Senate and thought that both coalitions' candidates would do equally good jobs if elected.
McShea, an architectural engineering student and Ellsworth Hall resident, said he only voted for engineering senatorial candidates.
"The farthest east I get on campus is Marvin Hall," he said. "If they came to Ellsworth, I'd go. I'm tired of how they both talk about each other instead of caring about the issues, although both coalitions are pretty equal on the issues."
Jennifer Watkins, elections commissioner, said that the candidates might deliver opening statements, but that a major portion of the debate would be devoted to students' questions.
Amanda Weinberg, elections commission chair, will moderate the debate.

Two conniving fathers, two young lovers and the living wall that divides them all can be seen at this weekend's production of *The Fantasticks* at Hashinger Hall.
Hashinger to show musical
The student-produced musical, which is at 8 tonight and tomorrow and 2:30 p.m. Sunday, blends comedy and romance with a demanding orchestral score and poetic dialogue. Written by Tom Jones and Harvey Schmidt, The Fantasticks first opened in 1960 at an off-Broadway theater in New York and is the longest-running musical in the world.
Seth Golay, Pittsburgh freshman, directed the show and said he was proud of what the cast had been able to accomplish since auditions in February. The show is free, and doors open a half hour before each performance.
"This musical requires classically trained singers." Golay said. "And they have done very well. We're ready for an audience."
Michael Luna, Overland Park sophomore who plays "Matt," said he thought students would be drawn to the show because it revolves around a love crisis.
TROUBLE HILL
"I have seen musicals done in the past, and they didn't have this great a cast," Rotting said. "The show doesn't really get dated very much. There is a timeless quality to it."
Doug Rottering, Lawrence senior who plays "Mortimer," said he thought this was one of the best casts he had seen in a Hashinger Hall production.
"One thing about the show is that we all really wanted to do it," Luna said. "I think it is very honest."

freshman, find something to sing about at last night's dress

The instruments in the
orchestra are notable primarily because there are only four of them — a piano, a harp, a cello and percussion. Golay said that the small orchestra had a unique sound that added to the performance.
"The music switches a lot from swing to jazz to marches and ballads," said Alex Logan, Beatrice. Neb., freshman who plays percussion. "And then the story will fit into the music, like with ascending and descending scales if someone is walking up or downstairs. We also have to do sound effects, like when someone falls."
The musical comes at the end of Spring Arts week, which is sponsored by the Hashinger Arts Council, the Hall Government and the Association of University Housing.
Events included an afternoon of bands and a night of comedy last Saturday, a community mural, a Hippie Freak Fest Tuesday and an art show Wednesday. Last night, students congregated on the front steps of the residence hall for open mic night.
With performances ranging from a female duet, ragtime piano and a Russian ballad played on guitar, about 30 students drifted on to the porch to play, watch and take shelter from the wind.
Lauren Front, Olathe freshman, said she thought having an open mic night was a good opportunity to see friends perform.
"I love this," Front said.
"They have talent to share, and we're just hear to listen. It's awesome."

The Japanese Consul General for the Midwest and the bureau chief for the Korean Economic Daily, B.J. Yang, will speak at the conference "Doing Business in East Asia," which begins at 8:30 this morning at the Daisy Hill Room in the Burge Union.
Several area professors and business people also will have panel discussions during the conference, which gives students and the community the opportunity to learn about the social, economic and political factors of East Asian economies and career opportunities in each region, said Clyde Stoltenberg, professor of business and member of the Center for East Asian Studies faculty, which is sponsoring the conference.
"We saw it as an opportunity to
bring together academics to provide a general update on the region," Stoltenberg said. "Students can learn a lot about East Asia business in a fairly short period of time. They can get a very good overview in dynamics in the region."
Stoltenberg said that the Asian economic crisis had impacted investment in some Asian countries, particularly Indonesia.
Korean, Thai and Malaysian currencies have dropped in relation to the dollar, making those countries interesting to investors wanting to acquire assets there, he said.
Coolidge, who has traveled to China twice, said that he had been to conferences before and that they were good career and learning
Mark Cooleedge, Olathe graduate student, said that he was going to attend the conference because he was interested in the subject matter as a student.
"DOING BUSINESS IN EAST ASIA"
1. 3:0 p.m. Doing Business in Korea
2. 3:0 p.m. Doing Business in China
3. 4:5 p.m. Career Opportunities in East Asia
5 p.m. Closing remarks
"I don't think it's going to be anything too advanced or too technical for the average person to understand." Cooledge said. "Things like this are always good for making contacts."
The Honorable Tatsuo Tanaka, consul general from Japan, will make his last speech in the region before returning to Tokyo to take a new position for his government.
opportunities.
Tanaka was instrumental in helping KU students take part in the JET program, a program which sends U.S. citizen to Japan as English instructors, said Pat Weiss, program assistant for the Center for East Asian Studies. Chancellor Robert Hemenway will attend the luncheon to honor Tanaka's support of KU programs.
Yang, bureau chief of the Korea Economic Daily and a KU graduate, will deliver the keynote address.
Weiss said that students could come to any of the afternoon sessions for free.
"The conference is sold out, but there is seating available for Korea, China and the career sessions," she said.
Another conference, "Career Opportunities in East Asian Studies," will begin tomorrow at 9:30 a.m. at the Kansas Room in the Kansas Union.
The second conference is also free, and schedules and information for both conferences are available at http://falcon.cc.ukans.edu/~ceas.

The Deal, Schwag pay tribute to Dead's long, strange trip
By Ezra Sykes
esykes@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
The death of Jerry Garcia in 1995 marked the end to an epic journey.
For 30 years, the Grateful Dead had wandered around the world filling ears and hearts full of their intriguing music — improvisational rock 'n' roll with a healthy dose of both experimental and traditional music.
On the way, a subculture of followers was produced, widely known for its liberal stances and heavy use of mind-altering substances. Somewhere on the long, strange trip, these "Deadheads" seemed to become uniquely American figures like cowboys or hoboes.
Four months after the death of singer and guitarist Garcia, band members announced that they would never again perform as the Grateful Dead.
Now in a time where the ubiquitous MTV commands youth and a "sell-out-or-die" attitude runs rampant in the music industry, you would think that the Grateful Dead would have faded away.
But the music never stopped.
In Lawrence, two bands have provided a way for Grateful Dead fans to hear live Dead tunes from the stage rather than from the extensive bootleg collections in their living rooms—The Deal and The Schwag.
Darrell Lea, lead guitarist for The Deal explained the original intentions for forming the local group.

"We simply wanted to go out and play some bar rooms," he said. "We
long time and liked the music."
"Lawrence is a big community for Dead-heads " he said.
And their location was perfect.
The group's approach to covering Dead tunes isn't to copy the music but rather to play it in their own style.
Because Dead tunes are so popular, business is pretty good.
"We don't make a conscious effort to imitate their styles." Lea said.
ness is pretty good.
"Once a crowd has heard a note of the Dead, you can't give them anything else," Lea said. "We're not willing to make $20 a gig anymore for the glory of playing our own tunes. This music allows us to be a tribute band and not have to get new hairstyles."
became a hall-breaker. The band plays in Lawrence almost monthly and will perform about 10 tonight at the Bottleneck, 737 New Hampshire St.
The Schwag was formed in 1992 in St Louis and in 1995 — after the death of Garcia — it became a full-fledged Dead tribute band.
at the Boccoloma In a phone interview from St. Louis, bassist Jimmy Tebau spoke about the band members' qualifications.
"Collectively we've been to about 700 Dead shows," he said. "We've studied their music when we saw them and still strive to get the right tones and the right notes."
The band has 131 Dead tunes in their repertoire.
But a perfect imitation isn't the goal for The Schwag.

'Ninnescah' piano concerto premieres tonight at KU
By Matt Merkel-Hess
Special to the Kansan
With pen in hand, which she used as a baton, and long black hair sweeping in front of her face, composer Maria Newman rehearsed her piano concerto, "Ninnescah," with the KU Symphony Orchestra Tuesday afternoon.
Tuesday afternoon
Working quickly and efficiently at the first of three rehearsals this week, Newman fine-tuned parts that didn't sound quite right and conveyed her thoughts to the orchestra on the piece, which premieres at 7:30 tonight at the Lied Center.
At the piano, Delores Wunsch Stevens, KU alumna, made the difficult part seem effortless, which was written with her in mind
The Wunsches, who maintain residences in Lawrence and Kingman, donated a tract of land near Kingman valued at $50,000 to the KU Endowment Association to begin the fund.
less, which was "When you write a piece, you work around another person's abilities," Newman said. "And Delores' talents are endless."
"This endowed fund is there forever or until the institution is gone," said Steve Anderson, chair of the department of music and dance. "The joy to me is having this resource to create projects, which enhance the educational opportunities for students, faculty and the public."
The work is the first commission for the Delores Wunsch Stevens Fund for New Music that had been established by Stevens' brother Bob Wunsch and his wife, Barbara, of Lawrence. Barbara Wunsch said she and her husband established the fund to honor Stevens and her commitment to new music.
"It's not that we ourselves are such good musicians," Barbara Wunsch said. "But we've grown up around it and love it."
Newman was selected to write the concerto, which she began working on about a year ago. The title comes from the Ninnescah River, which runs through Stevens' hometown of Kingman.
The 30-minute piece has five movements and tells the story of a chautauqua, a turn of the century production which involved circus-type events.
A CONCERT FOR THE PRE-MILLENNIUM

be interested. The fund also provided for Newman's and Stevens' week-long residency at the School of Music and travel from Los Angeles, where the two live in the same neighborhood.
Newman, born in 1962, grew up in a musical family. She is the youngest daughter of nine-time Academy Award winning composer/conductor Alfred Newman, two of her brothers compose for film, and her cousin is singer-songwriter Randy Newman. She studied violin and viola performance at the Eastman School of Music and Yale University, and she began composing in the early '80s.
She now has two daughters — 4-month-old Isabella and 2-year-old Martha. Her husband, George Thatcher, is a professional trombonist.
Newman said that in the '60s, classical music moved in a direction that turned a lot of people off, and she has worked to make her music more melodic.

Stevens, a professional pianist, has performed more than 500 concerts and has always been committed to new music. She commissioned and premiered works by more than two dozen composers.

Transgendered activist urges pushing limits

Transgendered author and activist Kate Bornstein spoke about pushing the boundaries of gender and sexual orientation with a small group of KU students yesterday.
The afternoon "Meet and chat" discussion was sponsored by Queers and Allies, the University Theatre, Student Senate and the Liberty Press, and was attended by 15 students. The event was part of Pride Week, which begins in earnest Monday.
Bornstein said she hoped that college activists took this freedom and used it to help other students — such as the transgendered.

Museum Day, which is free to the public, is from 1 to 3 p.m. Sunday at every KU museum.
Visitors who collect stamps from at least three museums will be eligible to win a $25 gift certificate to any museum gift shop. A model of a Roman Bulla, a circular medallion worn by Roman children, will be used to collect stamps, said Betty Banks, curator of the Wilcox Classical Museum.
Beth Huerter, visitors services manager at the Natural History Museum, said she wished every day could be Museum Day.
if you can only come to the museums once, this would be
tne day to come," Huerter said.
The theme at the Natural History Museum is "The End of an Era" — specifically the end of the millennium and the Mesozoic Era.
A new permanent exhibit, a 60-foot mosasaur skeleton, will open. Mosasaurs were giant swimming lizards that lived during the Mesozoic Era in the shallow sea that covered Kansas.
Children will get to crawl through a mock mosausaur rib cage, said Dena Podrebarac, public education specialist at the museum.
At the Spencer Museum of Art, the theme is "Picture Yourself in the Art Museum," said Kristina Mitchell, education services coordinator at the museum. Museum volunteers will take Polaroid pictures for participants to follow
in drawing their own portraits. Visitors also can examine two portrait exhibits and participate in a gallery activity.
A treasure hunt and activities with myths are planned at the Wilcox Classical Museum, Banks said. There will be prizes, temporary tattoos and an interactive guide to Rome.
The Museum of Anthropology will have a grid activity to give visitors an idea of how archeologists work at a dig, said Celia Daniels, public education director at the museum.
"They may see things they never knew existed on campus," Banks said. "There isn't any other place on campus they'll see ancient sculptures in original scale and actual antiquities."
While not many KU students typically attend Museum Day, Banks recommended a visit.

The Emily Taylor Women's Resource Center has scheduled its biggest program to date for Sexual Assault Awareness Week, which begins Monday and will continue until April 16.
"We hope people see it as a positive opportunity to make a difference," said Kathy Rose-Mockry, director of the center.
"Men and Women Working Together to Ston Rane" is the week's theme.
An awards ceremony from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Monday at Wescoce Beach will kick off the week. Working Against Violence Everywhere, an organization run by KU students, will recognize two people for their work against violence.
According to the KU Public Safety Office, there was one rape and two sexual batteries on campus in 1998, compared to seven raps and no sexual batteries in 1997.
KJHK also will broadcast from the event, and information tables with safety tips and free whiiches—to call for assistance in a violent situation will be provided.
Later, a self-defense class will be taught from 4 to 6 p.m. at room 252 in Robinson Center by 30 year law enforcement veteran Mickey DeHook . There is a $5 fee for students, staff and faculty and $10 fee for the public.
A T-shirt making session for the Clothesline Project will take place from 7:30 to 10 p.m. at Corbin Resource Center. Women and children who have been a victim of violence, or know someone who has been, are invited to make T-shirts to be hung on a clothesline for display later in the week.
"The purpose is to bear witness to survivors as well as victims," said project leader Jenny McAdam, Kansas City, Mo., senior.
A series of 14 posters "This is Not an Invitation to Rape Me" will on display from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Tuesday on the fourth floor of the Union.
"The images are very provocative," said Rose-Mocky. "The idea is to challenge people's assumptions about rape and sexual assault."
Another T-shirt making session is sched.

Refugees urged to return home
Serbs declare end to 14-month war
The Associated Press
BELGRADE, Yugoslavia — Yugoslavia urged refugees to return home yesterday, declaring "peace has prevailed in Kosovo" and saying its 14-month war against ethnic Albanian separatists was over. But Western officials feared those same refugees would be used as human shields against NATO attacks.
As the United States pledged that NATO would press ahead with the bombing campaign against Yugoslavia, a former Cypriot president arrived in Belgrade to try to win
freedom for three captured U.S. soldiers. His task could prove difficult: A hard-line Serbian vice premier ruled out any release as long as the NATO bombardment continued.
On the 16th day of the U.S.-led air assault, hopes for the prisoners' release were mixed with concern about thousands of ethnic Albanian refugees whose fate was unknown a day after Yugoslavia sealed off its borders and stopped their flight out of Kosovo.
The Yugoslav government, which said it had been observing a unilateral cease-fire in Kosovo since Tuesday for Orthodox Easter, claimed the refugees were voluntarily heading back to their homes in the province.
homes in the province.
Spyros Kyriapou, currently the
speaker of the Cypriot parliament, said that he planned to meet Yugoslav President Slobodan Milosevic today and that the Americans might be freed during the long Orthodox Easter week. He called on NATO to reciprocate with a cease-fire during the holiday, something the alliance has refused.
Vice Premier Vojislav Seselj, leader of the influential Serbian Radical Party, told reporters yesterday that releasing the Americans was out of the question.
U. S. State Department representative James P. Rubin said only an unconditional release would be acceptable.
President Clinton insisted that NATO could still win in Kosovo without sending in ground troops and
expressed hope yesterday that the three servicemen would be freed.
NATO warned that Yugoslavia's state-run radio and television network could be one of its next targets.
Alliance representative Jamie Shea said some Yugoslav television facilities already have been hit.
"It has filled the airwaves with hate and with lies over the years and especially now. It is therefore a legitimate target," Air Commodore David Wilby told reporters at NATO headquarters.
NATO allies have dismissed Yugoslavia's claims of a unilateral ceasefire, saying the bombing campaign will continue until Milosevic allows the return of all refugees, withdraws all troops and accepts a peace plan for Kosovo.
Test to help ensure Y2K-friendly skies
The Associated Press
DENVER — Saturday night, the Federal Aviation Administration will try the first live test of its Year 2003 air-train computer fixes.
Late Saturday and early Sunday, the agency plans to split the computers controlling air traffic around the airport and spin the clock ahead to Jan. 1, 2000 in half of the systems.
The same time change will be made in flight computers aboard an FAA Lear Jet flying over Grand Junction, in western Colorado; Denver, on the eastern side of the Rocky Mountains; and Colorado Springs, located to the south.
During the four-hour test, technicians will check computer software changes designed to solve the Y2K problem. Early computer programs used a two-digit format to read dates, and there has been widespread concern about problems when the year changes from "99" to "00," which computers may construe as 1900 instead of 2000.
For safety's sake, the FAA plane and the small amount of commercial traffic expected during the midnight hours will be tracked by air-traffic control systems not participating in the exercise.
Afterward, the computers will be rejoined and tapes from both sides will be sent to the agency's technical center in Atlantic City, N.J., for comparison. The results will be released next week.
"This is an extremely important test to the national airspace system," said Ray Long, head of the FAA's Y2K program. Long said he didn't anticipate problems, but if they were encountered, "That's why you do testing."
Each year, more than 600 million people — and billions worth of goods and mail — travel through U.S. skies with the aid of the FAA's computerized air traffic control system.
Although there may be some glitches, the FAA is confident planes will not fall out of the sky.
Stock-trading Internet hoax increases company's worth
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Wall Street always has trafficked in rumors that sometimes turn out to be wrong. But as an online hoax demonstrated this week, the lightning speed of the Internet can give a falsehood a big head start on the
Someone made up a story about Pair Gain Technologies, made it look like it came from the financial news giant Bloomberg, and posted it Wednesday on a Web site where surfers can make their own pages. The hoax boosted the company's stock price 31 percent before the story was debunked.
The incident caught the attention of regulators and reminded investors, especially impulsive day traders, that the speed and simplicity of the Internet also can wreak havoc.
"I think we'll see more cases of Internet fraud," said John Delaney, cochairman of the new media practice at Morrison & Foerster, a New York law firm. "The Web means that scoundrels are able to disseminate fraudulent information far more widely and much more quickly."
No one yet knows the source or the
motives behind the fraudulent report on PairGain, which appeared on Angelfire.com, the personal Web-page site.
The report said PairGain, a Tustin, Calif., maker of telecommunications equipment, would be acquired by an Israeli firm, ECI Telecom, for $1.35 billion, or about twice its current market value.
Traders jumped on the hot tip, buying up shares and touting the stock in chat rooms run by the online service Yahoo! The report appeared credible, with quotes from company officials, and the page was a near-perfect replica of Bloomberg's site.
PairGain shares, which closed at $8.50 Tuesday, rose as high as $11.12 1/2 on Wednesday before company officials said the report was untrue, and the page was yanked from the Internet. The stock settled back to close at $9.37 1/2, on volume of 13.7 million shares. On an average trading day, about 2 million shares of PairGain change hands.
PairGain and Bloomberg officials said yesterday that they had turned the matter to the Securities and Exchange Commission, which wouldn't confirm details of any investigation.
Premier denies spying on U.S.
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — President Clinton and Chinese Zhu Rongjie met at the White House yesterday, then
sparred — sometimes
g o o d — naturelly
at a joint
news conference that ranged from trade to h u m a n
rights.
]
Clinton: China has taken some steps backward in human rights.
Zhu denied that China's spies have s t o l e n se r from
American research laboratories or that its agents funneled campaign contributions to Democrats. He said he would help the Americans investigate such reports — "so long as you can provide some clues."
"I don't believe such a story," he said of the allegations of Chinese espionage at top-secret American research laboratories.
He added pointedly: "Don't underestimate the ability of the Chinese people to develop their own technology."
"It is troubling that in the past year China has taken some steps backward on human rights and arrested people" for expressing their views, Clinton said, calling on China to give greater latitude to the Dalai Lama.
own technology.
In opening remarks, Clinton said that in their private talks, the two sides had made progress on thorny trade issues. Despite China's efforts at political reform, it must "give citizens greater freedom" to enhance their lives, he said.
Zhu gave short shrift to such talk. "President Clinton mentioned all of these in his opening remarks. I think we have
enough time to argue about these questions, so I don't want to delve into them now," he said.
But when talk turned to Taiwan, Zhu invoked Abraham Lincoln as a "model" to justify China's policy of refusing to rule out military force to reuile with that island.
"Abraham Lincoln, in order to maintain the unity of the United States and oppose the independence of the southern part, resorted to the use of force and fought a war for that, for maintaining the unity of the United States," he said.
Clinton stood by, a bemused expression on his face, as he heard his Chinese guest's words translated into English.
the president said that he had raised the allegations of Chinese espionage and campaign contributions in a private meeting Wednesday night and that Zhu had given him the same answer he gave reporters yesterday.
As for trade issues, Clinton stressed that the two leaders had made progress, and said he hoped obstacles blocking China's entry into the World Trade Organization could be cleared away by year's end.
Zhu said his visit should not be measured by the number of agreements the two sides reach.
"What is the key is that the PRC (People's Republic of China) delegation has the opportunity to meet people in different walks of life," he said.
The two men met privately earlier in the day after a formal welcoming ceremony at the White House. There, Clinton said the United States could best achieve its hopes for the next century through creation of a "strategic partnership" with China on issues such as nonproliferation, free trade and the mutual embrace of political freedom."

Debilitating proportions
Despite a society that admires large breasts, some women are choosing surgical reductions to alleviate medical problems.

When Erin Callaghan, San Antonio senior, was in high school, she
was in high school, she had to have her prom dress specially made. Two different sized patterns had to be spliced together to accommodate her large bust.
"It was a 14 on the top and an 8 on the bottom," she said.
Wearing a 38E bra size. Callaghan had tremendous difficulty finding clothes. The average American bra size is 36C, according to a December 1998 article in the Salt Lake City Tribune.
"I was never really able to fit into T-shirts or anything," she said. "I turned 17, and I wanted pretty bras and underwear. I went to Victoria's Secret, and they really didn't have anything that fit me."
When Callaghan started to suffer from back pain, her doctor suggested a breast reduction.
When it comes to breast size, bigger isn't always better.
"It was really more medical than cosmetic at that point." she said.
Her breast reduction was her 18th birthday present.
Very large breasts can cause a variety of medical problems including neck pain, breathing problems, even skeletal deformities. Tight bra straps dig into the shoulders, leaving deep red indentations. But the most common problem is back pain.
"A large bust causes abnormal biomechanics," said Matthew Lewis of Lewis Chiropractic, 2540 Iowa St. Lewis said that a very large bust can shift a woman's center of gravity forward, overworking the deep muscles in the lower back. This can result in debilitating discomfort.
Large breasts also can hinder one's self-esteem. From playground taunts in junior high to frustration finding a bathing suit, a disproportionate bust can make a woman hate her body.
For many women, a breast
reduction can be a solution to these problems.
In recent years, the procedure has become increasingly popular. In 1992, the American Society of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons reported that 39,000 breast reductions had been performed in the United States. This number grew more than 60 percent to 64,000 in 1997.
"In the 18 to 22 age group, breast reduction is probably the most common procedure that I do," said Scott Thellman of Lawrence Plastic Surgery, P.A. "The only people that think big breasts are great don't have them."
areola are moved into a higher position.
The doctor then brings the skin from both sides of the breast down and around the areola, creating a new and firmer shape. Finally, the incision is stitched shut.
Thellman said the operation usually took two or three hours.
Though patients can go home the next day, they will be sore for several more. Thellman advises patients to take at least a week off school or work to recover.
"The only people that think big breasts are great don't have them."
Callaghan said her operation was painful. Four pounds of tissue were removed from her
Scott Thellman
Lawrence Plastic Surgery, P.A.
Before surgery, a woman will meet with a plastic surgeon to discuss all aspects of breast reduction. Thellman also shows patients a 45-minute video that explains the procedure.
The office then will contact the patient's insurance agency.
"Once we hear from them, we'll go ahead and schedule," Thellman said.
This process takes two to four weeks.
Breast reduction is a complicated operation. Surgery is almost always performed under general anesthetic. After being unconscious during the procedure, most patients stay overnight in the hospital.
First, the doctor makes a keyhole-shaped cut that circles the areola, extends downward and follows the underside of the breast. The nipple stays attached to preserve nerve tissue and blood vessels.
The doctor removes excess tissue, fat and skin. The nipple and
breasts, drastically reducing her bra size to a 36B.
For two weeks after the surgery, patients are required to wear a heavy-duty surgical bra. This special bra is designed to provide extra support and compression.
As with any surgery, there are side effects. Some women are not able to breastfeed afterward. Many women experience a temporary change in nipple sensation.
Breast reduction also leaves noticeable scars.
"They're always going to be visible. It's important that patients understand that there are going to be scars, and they will be permanent," Thellman said.
Excessive bleeding and infection are possible but quite rare.
"Most patients do real well with it," Thellman said. "It's common for me to hear, 'It wasn't as bad as I thought.'"
The average cost of a breast
reduction is $6,000, Thellman said.
Many insurance companies will pay all or part of the cost if medical reason can be documented.
"We try not to pay for just cosmetic breast reductions," said Graham Bailey, director of communications for Blue Cross Blue Shield of Kansas.
Bailey said there were two situations where Blue Cross would pay for the surgery: mastoplexy and medical necessity.
Mastoplexy is a corrective procedure for women with breast cancer. After cancerous tissue is removed from one breast, the other is sized down for symmetry.
Blue Cross will pay for surgery to alleviate medical symptoms caused by a large bust, such as severe back pain. In these cases, the agency will work with the patient's physician to confirm need.
Bailey said quite a few claims for breast reductions were processed in the Blue Cross office.
"We're glad to be here for the ladies who get this done," he said. "That's what they pay their premiums for."
Thellman estimated that 95 percent of breast reduction patients felt a substantial physical improvement after surgery. They also feel better about themselves.
"The benefit that these patients get, to feel like they don't have to hide their figure anymore, is a real boost," he said. "This is an operation that makes people like the way they feel and the way they look."
For Callaghan this certainly was the case.
"The first time I went shopping afterward, I was almost in tears," she said. "I could fit into clothes without the buttons popping open. It's so much better now. I can find clothes that fit."
"I feel so much better about myself than I did before," she said.

REVIEW
GO
Rating : B.
By Brendan Walsh Kansan movie critic
If all it took to make a great movie were a pair of beautiful doe eyes, Katie Holmes would be a $20 million actress. Fortunately for Holmes, doe eyes do ensure a starring role in Dawson's Creek and the occasional chance to make the jump to the big screen.
Go tells the story of a set of teenage hooligans involved in a drug deal gone wrong, told from three different perspectives.
Ronna (Sarah Polley) volunteers to fill in for low-level drug dealing friend Simon (Desmond Askew) while he's out of town. She buys the drugs on credit and is ready to make the deal when she realizes that the buyers (Scott Wolf and Jay Mohr) are part of a police sting. She avoids being busted but has to get rid of the drugs in the process. This leaves her without the drugs and without the money to pay her dealer back.
Meanwhile, Simon is yukking it up with three of his friends (including Taye Diggs of How Stella Got Her Groove Back) in Las Vegas. Simon and Diggs' character gamble, steal a car and then shoot a strip club bouncer. It's never explained why the bouncer doesn't call the cops, but he and his friend decide to go on a
vigilante hunt for his assailants.
The third take on the whole situation follows Wolf's and Mohr's characters after the drug deal. It is the most personal and compelling of the three escape, because action doesn't get in the way of character development.
All this ties nicely together in the end, in a somewhat Altman-esque weaving of characters and lives.
Director Doug Limon also directed Swingers. The inevitable comparisons between Go and Pulp Fiction and Swingers are misguided. The conversations about fast food hamburgers in Pulp Fiction were new and entertaining, where as similar attempts at the same type of humor come off as forced, dull and worst of all, just the cynical rants of jaded teenagers.
Problems with character development and the script aside, *Go* provides several fabulous action scenes. The car chase in Las Vegas is exhilarating and clever, and the scenes inside the rave are done well. But the best scene of the entire movie is a drug-addled character conversing with an all-knowing cat. It's the best talking movie animal since Babe.

Lents will be facing two of her
When the Kansas women's soccer team takes the field at 11 a.m. tomorrow on SuperTarget Field against St. Louis University, Kansas sophomore Kate Lents will have a little extra incentive to play well.
former high school teammates, freshmen Melissa Gossman and Beth Mobery.
"It's going to be weird since we're all used to playing
Soccer Ball
with each other," said Lents.
The women, who won two state championships together while at St. Thomas Aquinas High School, will be facing each other for the first time at the collegiate level. Lents won three total championships. They are anticipating a supportive local crowd.
"It's going to be exciting, almost like a high school game, with a lot of people cheering for us," Moberg said. "A lot of people who go to KU and a lot of people from home are coming to watch."
Head coach Mark Francis said he was looking forward to the match-up and thinks it will be fun for them to play each other.
"It's always kind of neat for the kids to play against old buddies and club teammates so it gives them some added incentive," Francis said. "You don't want to lose to your former teammates."
The intensity level also is expected to be higher among the former teammates.
Lents expects to go head-to-head with her former teammates, and she wants to play well against them.
Moberg said that if she or Gossman went against Lents, they would definitely play each other tough.
"Me, Gossman and Moberg all played defense together. It's going to be different since I'm playing center-midfield now, so I'll be going against them," Lents said. "It'll also add the desire to want to beat them since they are younger."
The women know each others' game very well and speak nothing but praise for their friends and former teammates, offering some insights into their playing styles.
"Moberg is really aggressive. Gossman is a good ball controller out of the back. She can distribute really well and find peoples' feet," Lents said.
The St. Louis players both spoke highly of their Kansas counterpart as well.
"She's always been a strong player on the field and a team player. She's serious, but has fun with it," Gossman said.
"She's real smart with the ball. She knows where people are going to be. She knows the right moves at the right time and is an all around talented player." Moberg said.
Lents: Faces former high school teammates tomorrow.

Men's tennis to face tough opponents this weekend
By Melinda Weaver
The Kansas men's tennis team faces its biggest challenge of the season as it prepares for two home matches this weekend, against No. 5 Texas today and No. 21 Texas A&M on Sunday.
Kansan sportswriter
Texas, Texas A&M and Baylor are tied for first in the Big 12 Conference, and since the creation of the Big 12, Texas and Texas A&M are the only two teams to have won the conference title.
Colen mark Riley said he had been stressing this weekend's matches all season as a chance for the team to prove itself in the conference.
The team's three freshmen, Alex Barragan, Rodrigo Echagaray and Quentin Blakeney, improved their games at the bottom of the lineup as the top half, Luis Uribe, Kenny Powell and Ed Dus, faltered, losing in the last three matches.
"It is a good barometer to see where the team is," Riley said. "They are at the top of the Big 12, so if we are going to be at the top, we have to beat those teams. It will be a good test."
The No. 40 Jayhawks split their matches last weekend, losing to Oklahoma 2-5 and defeating Colorado 4-3.
Riley said he had not lost faith in his seniors.
"The only way for them to improve is to play matches," Riley said. "If they keep a clear head and focus good, things will happen."
"Texas is a great opportunity to show everyone how strong of a team we have." Powell said. "It's time for the entire team to step up. We all have to get together and put our best foot forward. If we do this and finish the week with productive practice, we can beat Texas and show the nation that we are for real."
Powell said he was prepared for the challenge.
Riley said he had not lost faith in his seniors.
The Longhorns, 15-4 overall, are undefeated in the Big 12. In their last meeting with Kansas, Texas produced the victory that clinched last year's Big 12 championship for them.
The Aggies, 12-2 overall, defeated the Jayhawks twice last season.
"This might be the toughest competition of the season," Uribe said. "I definitely think we can win. We have been playing hard and practicing hard. We just have to be ready and take advantage of playing in Lawrence."
A highlight for the Jayhawks has been Blak

eney, who won his 10th-straight match Sunday. His is the longest winning streak Since Trent Tucker won 18 in 1997.
Blakeney said he hoped to continue the streak and help his team pull out the victory.
"We just have to play our best tennis of the season," Blakeney said. "It's going to be tough, but we just have to be mentally focused and ready to compete. Our one through six can compete at the same talent level if we all go out and play our hardest. We all have to play well on the same day."
Students should enjoy sun, fun at a Jayhawk baseball game
Spring has sprung. Basketball is finished for another year and football is in the middle of spring drills, but months away from the first game. What's a Kansas sports fan to do? Try going to a baseball or softball game.
For those of you who don't know, Hoglum Ballpark was renovated completely during the last year and is now reopened for games. The stadium looks great. More stands were
nailed, some new seats were put in, and new concessions stands and restrooms were built. The stadium looks cool from the outside, and it is great on the inside too. Even the field looks nice — it's no Kauffman Stadium, but it's nice.
Want to hear the best part? All games are FREE! You don't need to buy a $100 sports pass, and you don't have to wait in line for hours before the game to get a

good seat. All students are admitted free with a KUUID, and once you are in, you are sure to find a good seat somewhere — there really isn't a bad seat in the whole place.
Wednesday afternoon, I walked in during the middle of the fourth inning and got a good seat, with a back and a cup holder, right behind home plate. I was even able to look over the shoulder of the guy with the radar gun to see how fast the pitches were coming toward home plate. I decided I should have played college ball. That 90 mph fast ball doesn't look too fast. I think I could hit it—well, probably not.
Now some of you might not be big baseball fans, but you don't need to be to enjoy the games. Go with some friends and sit outside in the stadium and enjoy the sun. It is a great way to relax and enjoy the nice weather with friends or even by yourself. It's even better if you happen to go on quarter dog day. That's right, just 25 cents for a hot dog. Those same dogs will cost you $2 or more at any major league stadium. Hot dogs for 25 cents are reason enough to go to the games. All they need now is 25 cent draws to go with the dogs. And little sauerkraut would help as well.
Take some time, skip a class and go enjoy a beautiful spring day at a baseball game. Who knows? You might even find yourself cheering for the team. If you don't like baseball, don't forget about the women's softball team. It will be just as fun to go to one of the women's games.
The one thing that would greatly improve college baseball is if players were forced to use wooden bats. There has been a lot of talk about going to wooden bats, and I hope it happens. I'm a traditionalist and enjoy hearing the crack of the wooden bat more than the unnatural metallic clink that the metal bats make when they hit the ball.
The wooden bats would make the games much more competitive because there wouldn't be nearly as many hits and home runs. The game would require a lot more defense than is required with metal bats. Several hits would be playable if they came off a wooden bat as opposed to screaming off the metal bats.
Wooden bats would also make pitching more interesting because the pitchers would be able to jam the batters, which is not possible with the metal bats. I hope they change to good old Louisville Sluggers as opposed to Eastons.
Finally, is anyone else excited about the Notre Dame game on Aug. 28? I've got two tickets and can't wait to go. Notre Dame — either you love 'em or you hate 'em. I hate 'em even though I admire their tradition. I really hope we can beat the Irish, and I think we can. Notre Dame always loses a game early in the year that no one thinks it should. I hope Kansas will be the one to beat the Irish. If the Jayhawks win, I'm charging the field and putting Coach Allen on my shoulders. I'll carry him off the field chanting "Rudy, Rudy!" When I get out of jail, maybe I'll write about it.

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday:
You could be tested severely this year, but don't sweat it. In April, pick out the job you want. It could be yours. The money starts coming in May, but don't spend it. The best things in life are all free in August, and a risk in November is not worth it. Invest in your own education in December, so by January you'll be ready. Your team is ready and waiting by February. By March, you should see from a new point of view.
Aries (March 21-April 19): Today is a 6.
You've been known to be brassy and bold, and maybe even speak out of turn, and that sometimes has gotten you into trouble. Today, just the opposite is likely. By saying it the way you see it, with honesty, you're more likely to get a promotion. Don't lose your temper.
Taurus (April 20-May 20): Today is a 7.
Taurus (April 20-May 20): Today is a 7.
Spending time with a quiet, gentle friend today could be crucial. You can help your friend have the courage to make a tough decision, then on act it. Your insight and common sense are important, but more important is your love, along with faith in your friend's hidden talents. Don't waver.
Gemini (May 21-June 21): Today is a 6.
You could find an excellent deal today from an unlikely source. A little bird will tell you where to be, and when, if you can manage to listen. Don't let your ideas of what you think is possible in the way of a great opportunity. If you hear about a deal that's too good to be true, check it out.
Cancer (June 22- July 22): Today is a 6.
You seem to be friendly and gentle, but actually you're very tough under pressure. You like the excitement, and today your insights could make a big difference. You could take an unexpected twist, too, and the person you thought was your adversary could turn out to be a good friend.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Today is a 5.
It feels really good when you get a big job done, and today you'll feel even better. Besides, you're making valuable points with a person who can do you a favor. It's always nice to have friends in high places, and your excellence today can earn you one.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Today is a 6.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) You are a 6.
If you're like most Libras, you're not exactly known for being practical. Today, however, if you use all the common sense you have, you can make a great deal.
With careful shopping and a little help from a friend, you could make the deal of the century.
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Today is a 7.
Looks like there are some decisions to be made concerning a domestic matter. There's the practical side to look at, but that's not necessarily the most important.
What's going to be the best for your relationship, and for the people you love? If you're not quite sure, ask.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Today is a 6.
Love is abundant today, but a job you've taken on may be more difficult than you expected. If your idea doesn't work right the first time, it's back to the drawing board for a new one. Take your time, and do it right.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Today is a 7.
Looks like you'll have a pretty good time today, whether you're working or playing. In fact, the line between the two could kind of fade out, especially if you're working on a household project with somebody you love. If you're not how about shifting that to a higher priority on your list?
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Today is a 6.
Thank heaven it's Friday! You're under quite a bit of pressure now, but don't despair. Your life is going to get a lot easier, and soon. In the meantime, show that even though you're a nice guy, you're also tough as nails.
C
Pisces (Feb, 19-March 20): Today is a 7.
You're probably more right-brained than left-brained. That means you're more likely to be creative than retentive. But today, it's best to have the facts at your fingertips again. You'll need them to accomplish what you have in mind. In other words, don't trust your memory. Take a list.

Women's basketball signs three freshmen
C
LEO
Kansas head women's coach Marian Washington announced yesterday that three student-athletes had signed letters of intent to play for the lajhawks next season.
They are Sharonne Spencer of Compton, Calif.; Jamie Shelite of Medicine Lodge; and Kristen May of Kansas City, Mo.
SPORTS BRIEFS AND SCORES
Spencer, a 6-1 forward, will come to Kansas from Dominique High School, where she led her team to a 17-8 record while averaging 14 points, 13 rebounds, four steals, five blocks and four assists per game. She was named to the all-San Gabriel league first team her freshman, junior and senior years as well as being awarded all-California Interscholastic Federation honors in 1998 and 1999.
Washington believes that Spencer's best years are still ahead of her.
JUSTICE
"Sharonne is a true player at the three position," Washington said. "She is a real strong athlete and will be able to give us some good size on the perimeter."
May, a Kansas City native, attends Lincoln College Preparatory Academy, where she averaged 21 points, nine assists and seven steals per game. May, a 5-8 guard, has been named first team all-state team (1998, 1999) and is a four-time first队 inter-cholastic league honoree. Lincoln Prep Academy finished the season at 22-8 overall and placed fifth in state, the highest finish in school history.
"With Kristen May, we have got a wonderful young lady," Washington said. "She is a true point guard with great vision and great passing ability. Kristen is a great student and is going to be a player that will definitely develop in the future."
Shelite, a 6-4 forward/center who attended Medicine Lodge High School, was a honorable mention all-State selection as well as second team alliance honoree her senior year.
"Jamie is very agile and has good quickness," Washington said. "I think she will help us show off our inside game. Jamie plays with a lot of enthusiasm and is very vocal and positive with what she says."

Other Cardinals slugger hits third home run
ST. LOUIS — Fernande Tatua now has a two-home run lead on Mark McGwine.
Tatis' three-run, fiftiining homer was his third in as many games for St. Louis and was the big hit in a 9-4 victory against the Milwaukee Brewers yesterday.
He is now one homer away from tying one of McGwire's many records from last season, when the Cardinals slugger joined Willie Mays as the only players to hit homers in the first four games.
Tatis has six RBI, and he also stole

Bobby Hughes homered and had an RBI double for Milwaukee. Sean Berry had three hits and Jeff Cirillo had two for the Brewers.
Kent Mercker (1-0) also lasted five innings and allowed three runs on eight hits.
BALTIMORE — After going 2,632 games without a day off, Cal Ripken is suddenly getting into the habit of watching from the dugout.
Ripken sits out game after injuring back
For the first time since 1982, the Baltimore Orioles third baseman missed a game because of injury Wednesday. Saddled with a stiff lower back, Ripken decided it would be better to take a seat than to take a chance.
It was the second time in the Orioles' last 10 games Ripken failed to play. Last Sept. 20, he voluntarily ended his record consecutive games streak by sitting out Baltimore's final home
So he never picked up a bat and watched the Orioles lose to Tampa Bay 8-5.
Ripken, who left the Onies' season opener Monday in the third inning with painful back spasms, began Wednesday night's game in the dugout while Wilts Otane took over at third base.
game against the New York Yankees.
"I could beat my head against the wall and go do it today, but it doesn't make sense," Ripken said. "We're going to just work toward being ready tomorrow."
"I told him I'd rather err on the side of caution and give him another 24 hours," Miller said. "In my heart I know he never played a game just because of the streak. Fortunately for us it's not there anymore, so we can use a little better judgment."
Hours before the game, Ripken told manager Ray Miller that he wasn't quite 100 percent. So Miller decided to give Ripken the day off, even though he had already written the third baseman into the starting lineup.
Blackhawks assistant given permanent spot
CHICAGO — The Chicago Blackhawks made Lorne Molleken their permanent coach yesterday after six weeks as interim coach.
Molleen replaced Dirk Graham Feb 22 and has a six-game home winning streak. He began the season as an assistant coach with the Blackhawks. Overall, his record is 9-6-4.
Molleen came to the Blackhawks from the Edmonton Oilers, where he coached their minor-league affiliates at Hamilton and Cape Breton for the past three seasons.
As Hamilton coach, he posted a 64-61-35 regular season record and went 15-16 in the playoffs. He was a minor-league player for eight seasons and signed major-league contracts with Los Angeles, the New York Islanders and Minnesota but never played at the NHL level.
The Blackhawks were 19 games under .500 when Graham was fired.

bubble of that eight spot. Missouri visited Hoglund Ballpark a little more than a week ago for a non-conference, two-game series. The games were scheduled as non-conference because of proximity and rivalry. Each team won a game.
"We found out what Missouri's strengths and weaknesses were when they came here, and we're going in looking for the sweep," Klocksien said.
Randall said that one of the strengths of the Tigers was that they were a good hitting club.
"They are not a great offensive team, and if you pitch well you can hold them down, but they do have dangerous hitters," Randall said.
The Tigers' dangerous hitters include three players hitting more than .350 — Aaron Wilson at .393, J.R. Warner at .380 and Jon Williams at .352.
So much of he burden of
winning the series will fall on the shoulders of the Kansas pitching staff. But, after having a great March, the staff has been struggling at the beginning of April.

Snyder poised to revitalize Missouri team
COLUMBIA, Mo. — The job of revitalizing Missouri goes to a man exactly half Norm Stewart's age.
The school is hoping Duke assistant Quin Snyder, a boyish 32-year-old, hired to a five-year contract on Wednesday, will relate to players his predecessor might have driven away in the past. Unlike Stewart, who resigned under pressure six days earlier after 32 seasons — saying his style was not to be a social worker — Snyder believes the coach-player relationship doesn't have to be adversarial.
He said the same thing to his players in an informal first chat a few minutes before a campus news conference.
"I told them I'll treat them with respect, and I know they'll treat me with respect," Snyder said. "I hope I can be many things to them. Yes, I hope I'm their friend. Being their friend doesn't preclude you from disciplining them."
Players liked what they heard and gave their new leader a standing ovation, along with the rest of the fans in attendance at the news conference.
freshman point guard Keyon Dooling, who clashed with Stewart last season and considered transferring, didn't attend Stewart's farewell news conference. He was all smiles Wednesday.
"You could feel the vibes," Dooling said.
"There were a number of good vibes."

Jayhawks will challenge Baylor, Red Raiders in Texas road outings
By Brandon Stinnett sports@kansan.com Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas softball team will be trying to snap a seven-game losing streak this weekend in four conference games against Baylor and Texas Tech. The Jayhawks will face Baylor (21-13, 2-0) Saturday in a doubleheader in Waco, Texas and then travel to Lubbock on Sunday for two games against Texas Tech (25-22, 0-2). Kansas faced both teams earlier in the season. They lost to Baylor 6-5 in 10 innings and beat Texas Tech 1-0 in nine.
"It should be some good competition for us this weekend," said Tracy Bunge, Kansas coach. "I don't think any of the three teams are head and shoulders above the rest."
Kansas has headed downhill (14-20, 0-3) since
winning the Metrodome Classic on Feb. 14. The Jayhawks claimed a 2-0 victory against Missouri in the championship game of the tournament. It was their second victory in as many games versus the Tigers in the tournament.
Things are different for the Jayhawks now. They've dropped eight of their last 10 and are ranked last in the Big 12 in offense with a .229 batting average. They committed six errors in a 5-0 loss to Missouri on April 3.
"Frustrating" is the word Bunge used to describe the Jayhawks' season thus far.
"We're a young team," she said. "Some of this is to be expected, but I didn't expect it to be this bad. Obviously we're kind of stuck in this valley."
Bunge said she didn't know the cause of the team'sstruggles.
it's tough because players are coming up to me and asking why they're not winning the close games," she said. "I don't know what to say. We just haven't been getting any breaks."
Bunge said she suspected a lack of confidence might have something to do with it, though.
"We've struggled, and we haven't handled it very well because we're young," she said.
Softball
Junior pitcher Sarah Workman isn't sure why the Jayhawks have been unable to put it all together.
"One game we hit well and play bad defense. The next game we play good defense and hit bad," Workman said. "Obviously, our confidence is low."
Even with the team's recent struggles, Workman said she was confident the team wasn't ready to give up.
"We wouldn't be here if we were quitters," Workman said. "We wouldn't be here in a college softball program."

Commentary
Saga of columnist's hat finally told
As my career as a Kansan columnist draws to a close, I have made a decision: The time finally has come.
Time to answer the big question.
Time to set the facts straight about the one thing that has aggravated, incensed, confused and confounded every one from my
AARP

readers, to my editors, to my professors alike.
Time to share the story of the one thing that you'll find in everyone of my columns — the infamous hat.
The dirty, nasty, ragged, scuffed-up, weather-worn, beato-hell Texas A&M hat that has adorned my head in every mugshot for the past two years.
The hat that my girlfriend hates. The hat that my Mom hates. The hat that you hate.
So this column won't be about sports, but I have a feeling that
the people want to know. They need to know. They need to know why I, a kid who attends the University of Kansas and who openly roots for the Oklahoma Sooners, wears an Aggie ballcap. Because for some reason, it seems to have as much of an effect on people as what I write or who I am.
When I receive hate mail (and
I have received plenty), the readers never forget to curse
the hat. They hate it. They
despise it. They verbally spit on it—through e-mail.
why do you wear that terrible, dirty hat????" (We'll get to that.)
"Don't you know you go to KU21Z?" (Yes.)
"Why don't you go back to College Station?!!!!!" (Been there once, it's terrible.)
"This is a Kansas paper, you can't wear a Texas A&M hat!!!" (looks like I did.)
But it's not just the haters.
It's everybody.
One of my editors, in a fit of childish rage, once declared that the hat stood in contrast to everything he believed a newspaper should be (whatever that is). He desperately tried to have it removed.
But the hat won. It always does.
One day, one of my favorite and most respected professors quietly pulled me aside. He wanted to talk about the hat.
"Harley," he said, in a polite tone. "That hat is very unprofessional."
I thought about it for awhile, and I decided he was right. It is unprofessional. People might get the wrong idea; they might think I was biased.
Then I looked at my paycheck (I do this for free, kids).
The hat won. It always does.
When I go out on the weekends, if I am wearing the hat, it is guaranteed to draw a response. The friendly workers at Papa Keno's. A bouncer at Quinton's. A bartender at Louise's. A cute girl at the Jazzhaus.
It is always the same. First they look at me, then, they look at the hat and start to get a funny look in the eye.
I know what is about to come.
I wait.
"Hey, aren't you...aren't you the,
the you know, the guy..."
I just smile.
"I would recognize that nasty hat anywhere."
It's a great ice-breaker.
It's a great ice-breaker.
So now we back at the beginning. Why? Why Texas A&M?
I'm going to give up the goods, but I'm afraid that there is no conspicuaries, no secret motives, no juicy reasons. Nothing even that interesting. So, Why?
The summer before I came to Kansas, I was visiting my father in Dallas. I decided I needed one of those generic, white, "frat boy" hats if I was ever going to fit in at college. I don't even remember why I picked Texas A&M. I imagine it was because it seemed to fit real well. I mean, I hate the Aggies.
As for the mugshot? Same story. My hair probably was messed up the day the Kansan photographers took my picture — so I threw on my trusty ballcap. It's a natural reaction for most guys. See camera, put on hat.
So there it is. Pretty antici-matic.
Just remember: The hat wins.
Always does.

Coach stresses importance of competition, winning
Track teams to travel to Wichita meet
By Mike Miller
sports@kansan.com
Kansas sportswriter
The men and women's track teams travel to Wichita State tomorrow to compete in the Wichita State-Missouri-Kansas City-Kansas triangular.
It is one of four scored meets, including nationals and conference championships, the Jayhawks will compete in this season. Small, intense meets like this allow the team to get back to what head coach Gary Schwartz calls the essence of track: competition and winning.
"Sometimes athletes get too caught up in the performance and lose sight of competition," Schwartz said. "You've got to be careful and not overdo things in a meet like this.
We try to sharpen some skills, but in a scored meet, you always want to win it."
Last year, the Jayhawks won the men's title, while the women finished second to K-State.
Kansas will have some athletes compete in several events, and the team is wary of fatigue, especially with two of the most important meets of the season coming up: The Mt. Sac Relays in Walnut, Calif., and the Drake Relays in Des Moines, Iowa.
Without a heptathlon event at the triangular, senior Candy Mason will split duties between the javelin, pole vault and long jump.
"Some athletes, like Candy, probably won't take all of their tries so that they don't tire as quickly," Schwartz said.
In field events, such as long jump or shot put, athletes have six tries in a particular event to establish their best mark. Other events, such as the high jump and the pole vault, allow athletes six tries at each height.

Kevin McGinn, Carlisle, Penn., senior, said the primary objective was to win.
"For me, I just hope it's good weather and no wind — which is pretty rare in Wichita," McGinn said.
Schwartz agrees with his runner.
"The emphasis is on beating someone," he said. "In this meet, we just try to make it fun and win the thing."

Freshman Christi Wagenaar replaced fellow freshman Lisa Malah at No. 6 singles. Wagenaar won 4,6,2,6,3.

Director of student athletes offers unusual perspective
Former wide receiver John Jefferson knows of sports, real world
By Jeremy Johnson sports@kansan.com Special to the Kansan
John Jefferson knows athletics, and he knows how to communicate, which is a good thing considering he is KU's director of student athletic life.
With a mix of casual with candoor, J.J., as Jefferson prefers to be called, gives KU student athletes a perspective of the real world along with the sometimes dreamy world of NCAA athletics.
"He's tactful about it, but he doesn't beat around the bush," said Tyrus Fontenot, Houston senior and Kansas football player. "That's one of the things I like about him."
And Jefferson is likable — easy-going and down-to-earth. He maintains a demeanor inconsistent with what many might perceive of a professional football player — well, a former player, at least.
The students respond to Jefferson because he's straightforward and has a message to deliver, said Fred Roll, strength and conditioning coordinator.
"His demeanor is what these athletes need," Roll said. "A lot of kids respect someone who's been where they are now."
Jefferson, a Dallas native, attended Arizona State, where he was a consensus All-American wide receiver. In 1978, he was the first round draft choice of the San Diego Chargers. He was traded after three seasons but not before turning a lot of heads — especially those of opposing defensive backs.
In San Diego, Jefferson distinguished himself as one of the league's top wide receivers. He was selected to the Pro Bowl twice, once led the league in touchdown catches, and became
the first player in NFL history to gain 1,000 yards receiving in each of his first three seasons.
Jefferson joined the Green Bay Packers in 1981 and the Cleveland Brown in 1985, but after eight years in the league, he called it quits.
"There comes a time in every athlete's career when your body says that's enough, and I think that's what happened to me," Jefferson said.
No looking back, though. No regrets.
"I guess I just go on," he said.
After football, Jeffer son moved
back to Dallas and took a job in commercial real estate. It was his first taste of the real world—and the real world, he is quick to point out, is what he tries to drive home to student athletes.
B. K. MUSICIANS

way back in Jefferson's life, though. He took a volunteer coaching position with SMU in 1989, where he was noticed by former Kansas football coach Glen Mason. Mason asked Jefferson to join his coaching staff, and in 1990, he became Kansas' wide receivers coach.
In 1994, Jefferson jumped at the chance to move into athletics administration as director of administrative services. He said the job gave him the time to spend with his family that he wasn't afforded while coaching.
During his time as director, Jefferson got involved with the Student Athlete Advisory Committee
a group that acted as a sounding board for student athlete concerns. Through those meetings, Jefferson realized the school was caring for the athlete but not necessarily the person.
To help address those student
"His demeanor is what these athletes need.A lot of kids respect someone who's been where they are now."

athlete needs, Jefferson became director of the newly formed Student-Athlete Life Program 1996. One of Jefferson's goals was to help athletes keep everything in perspective and realize that they were students as well as athletes.
"Some athletes come in and bank it all on their ability to make it to that million dollar contract that's out there," Jefferson said. "Then when it doesn't work, they're stuck because they didn't take advantage of the education part."
Through his job, Jefferson keeps his hands in a number of programs, including the Student Athlete Advisory Committee. He is also involved with the NCAA CHAMPS/Life Skills Program, The Camp Jayhawk Program, and community outreach.
It's a job tailored to Jefferson, said Paul Busirk, Associate Athletic Director of Student Support Services.
"He relates very well to the kids, which is a must in this particular role," Buskirk said. "They respond to him."
"There's a lot of satisfaction, especially when kids call back after they go into the real world and say you were right about what you said," he said.
All in all, it's a rewarding job for Jefferson.
The winds may blow Jefferson another direction, though. He's open to what lies ahead — in college athletics or not — and flashes a casual smile about the future.
"You never know what opportunities will present themselves," he said.

- Robinson is an academic facility so it only offers work out space when classes aren't in session (before 8 a.m. and after 6:30 p.m.)
- Got a Problem?
- Robinson ranks last in the Big XII in terms of recreation facilities
- You are paying exorbitant fees for private clubs. Meanwhile students at other schools are enjoying the benefits of their own student rec facilities.
Here is the solution!
- You will have the opportunity to vote for a new facility on April 14 & $ 15^{\mathrm {th}} $ (during the senate elections).
- This new facility will be available 18 hours a day. That means you can roll out of bed at any time and go work out!
- New gyms for basketball, floor hockey, indoor soccer (Full sized-not Jr. High sized), 300% more weight and fitness space than Robinson, suspended jogging track, and rock-climbing wall.
- Costs rise every year we wait (construction inflation is 15% per year). The time is now to leave a better KU for the next generation. If you've ever complained about Robinson, now is your chance to do something!!!

Sailing club finds smoother waters as it adds members
By Matt James
mjames@kansan.com
Kansas writerwriter
Fred Tucker came to Kansas to sail.
The Norman, Okla., senior laughed as he thought back on his decision to transfer from Oklahoma to Kansas, a University in a state not known for its abundance of water.
Transferring from one university to another for a club sport is a bit unusual. But Tucker said the Oklahoma sailing club was all but dead — all that was left was one club member and two broken boats — and his love of the sport outweighed all other considerations.
Now, he is the Kansas Sailing Club's fleet captain and head of maintenance.
Tucker has worked hard to rebuild the club during the last two years.
What he found after transferring to Kansas in Fall 1997 was a club sport in shamables. In two
years, he has led a club transformation that vice president Chris Drisay, Chicago junior, compared to a rusty, old lawn mower becoming a well-oiled machine.
Drayer said that the club's fleet of 18 boats, including a third racing boat recently purchased from Baylor University, was fully operational for the first time in nearly a decade and that its 32 members were the most since the mid-1980s.
the boats were more turnaround," said Liz Riggs, Omaha, Neb., sophomore and the club's president. "We're trying to be more prominent and let people know about us, but it's so important to have a working fleet of boats to sail. We can't say 'come on out and sail, but wait, we've got to fix our boats first.'"

Tucker's handiwork has been the major factor in the restoration of the fleet.
"When I came here, there were a couple lasers with rats living in them, and I just decided we

should fix them up,
Tucker said. Lasers, he
said, are a type of small
sailboat.
Fred Tucker, Norman, Okla., senior, and Meghan Collar, Overland Park junior, battle the wind while trying to fold up one of the KU Sailing Club's sails. When the weather prohibits safe sailing, club members often spend the afternoon fixing up the fleet of 18 sailboats.
Those lasers will be raced for the first time on April 17 when the team holds a friendly regatta, or boat race, versus the Navy Reserve Officers' Training Corps at Clinton Lake.
Holding its own regatta is a rare occasion for the team, which usually must take a road trip to Texas or other southern areas to find competition. The team traveled to Dallas for Southern Methodist University's regatta in mid-March and to New Orleans for Tulane University's regatta during spring break. It will be
heading to Ames, Iowa, this weekend for a battle with Iowa State.
But Drayer is quick to point out that the club is much more than racing. Only six members are on the racing team — most are simply social members who enjoy a sunny afternoon of sailing. For Turner, however, sailing is much more
For Tucker, however, sailing is much more than a social activity.
"He loves to sail and fix boats," Riggs said. "That'sbisbing."
Tucker spent his summers in high school on the West Coast with his mother and learned to sail in the Pacific Ocean. However, he said that before coming to Kansas, he never had sailed in a lake.
Tucker took an instrumental role in the club when he spoke out with ideas for improving the fleet and bolstering membership. He was soon voted commodore, a title that the club uses for some of its leaders.
"I started just thinking this is a great opportunity to learn," he said. "I've never had a leadership role before, so I was hesitant about becoming commodore. But it's been so rewarding. Now I schedule school and work around the sailing
club. It's my life's passion."
club it says he's in rebuilding the club has restored some of the sailing club's past success and reputation.
Drayer said the club was founded in the 1960s and endured various structure changes and funding problems until the 1980s, when it flourished under generous funding by Student Union Activities. An annual week-long trip to the Bahamas helped the club top 150 members.
The club, whose funding has risen from $500 to $6,400 during the past year with the addition of new members and support from the local sailing community, is now supported by KU's recreation services.
Club members said they hoped that the increased funding, which would allow them to travel more and purchase additional boats, would continue to bolster membership.
But Tucker needs no extra incentive.
"He'll be one of those guys you see in a gray sweater with a hat and a pipe, sitting on a boat in the freezing cold in Massachusetts," Riggs said.

Liu: Delta Force vice-presidential candidate
When Korb Maxwell and Dede Seibel founded the YOU coalition last October, they had student representation and concerns on their minds.
Maxwell, Student Legislative Awareness Board legislative director and YOU candidate for student body president, wants to take a full lobbying agenda to the state legislature next year. His running mate, Nunemaker Senator Seibel, hopes to shed perceptions of student apathy by taking Student Senate to the student body.
Maxwell, Leawood junior and political science and American studies major, said that if he were elected, he would rely on his experience working with state legislators to improve student life at the University of Kansas.
I can tell a story well," he said. "There are a lot of things that have not been accomplished as legislative director that I can accomplish as student body president."
Maxwell said he wanted to depart from partisan bickering, political agendas and resume-building and instead focus on student issues.
Seibel, McPherson junior and political science major, said that if elected she would use her role as student body vice president to encourage senators to reach out to students.
"So many times, we act on our own behalf," she said. "I can do a number of things to decrease that."

Admirers fill Lied center for Perlman performance
By Ezra Sykes
esykes@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Izhak Perlman, the world-famous violin virtuoso, played for a sold-out crowd Saturday night at the Lied Center.
Among the fans of the 54-year-old, who was born in Israel, was Sara Holmberg, Lawrence sophomore.
Holmberg studies violin performance and is a concert master for the KU Symphony Orchestra.
Holmberg was once again impressed.
"It's phenomenal to see such a virtuoso," she said. "He's just tops."
For a young violinist, the concert could be considered a learning experience, but taking mental notes was not easy to do, said Holmberg.
"It's hard to learn from watching him because his technique is quite different than what I've seen," she said. "But it works with his huge body and huge sound. He's a special case."
Perlman: Last played at KU in 1990.
Perlman performed selections written between the 18th and
20th centuries by composers such as Beethoven, Leclair and Gerschwin.
Although many of the songs were old, Holmberg said the classical selections were no less wonderful than contemporary music.
it has so much emotion," she said, explaining her admiration for classical music. "Many of the composers were writing about sadness and pain. I know rock music is popular, and that may just be because there are lyrics. With classical music, the notes speak for themselves."
Perlman added a little color to the performance by commenting to the audience.
In between one of the selections, he slowly looked around the Lied Center and said, "Nice place you got here."
Perlman last played at the University in 1990 in Hoch Auditorium.
Although the new venue may be considered a step up, Brian Priestman, conductor of the KU Symphony Orchestra, said a large auditorium was not the ideal setting for a violin or piano performance.
"The pieces are written for a much smaller audience and it kind of gives you a false impression in such a large place," he said.
But having a place like the Lied Center attracted artists such as Perlman, said Priestman, who has conducted ensembles in which Perlman has performed.
"Any town in the world, let alone Lawrence, Kansas, would be grateful to have a place like the Lied Center," he said.
Although Priestman credits hype for Perlman's label as the "world's greatest violinist," he said Perlman ranked up there with the best.
"There are other fabulous violinists but he is part of a very, very select group," he said.

However, everyone thinks some challenges still remain.
Marshall said Senate ought to pressure Chancellor Robert Hemenuway to reach his goal of 200 minority faculty members by 2000. He also said recruitment of more minority students was essential and that students should reconsider the diversity requirement.
Student Senators, senate candidates and the people they serve seem to be pleased
Marlon Marshall, incumbent YOU candidate for engineering senator, said he saw three areas of diversity that Senate could improve.

Public transport activist to oversee KU on Wheels
A public transportation activist will serve as the KU on Wheels transportation coordinator for the next academic year.
Last Thursday, the KU on Wheels transportation board chose Holly Krebs, holdover senator and McLouth junior, to oversee the daily operations of KU on Wheels. Saferide and Lifvian.
Krebs, Delta Force candidate for off-campus senator, will be a member of the Student Senate executive staff and will begin training for the position this month.
She will be responsible for distributing bus passes, coordinating route changes, reviewing the KU on Wheels contract and providing information for bus passengers.
Krebs said that although she had been active in trying to create a joint citywide bus system between the University of Kansas and the city of Lawrence, serving students would be her first priority as transportation coordinator. But, she said, the knowledge she would gain through the position would help her coordinate a potential public transportation system with the city.
My peripheral role will be doing what can to work with the city to create a system that would work even better," she said.
Krebs said she hoped to improve KU's bus system and find solutions to the inconvenient process of picking up bus passes and the failure of Smartcards to serve as bus passes.
— Nadia Mustafa
Ben Walker, transportation board chairman, said the board appointed Krebs because she had experience with the issue of citywide transportation and had connections within the administration.
Housing seminar targets landlord-tenant issues
Forced eviction, rent payments and city housing standards were just a few of the topics that about 25 residents showed up to learn about at a housing seminar Saturday at the Community Building, 115 W. 11th St.
The seminar on fair housing in Lawrence included a panel discussion of state and local laws and the rights of residential tenants. Both landlords and tenants could ask the panel questions about their individual rights under city and state laws.
Gene Shaughnessy, Lawrence building inspector, said tenants should try to work with their landlord before bringing problems to the attention of the city.
"It is kind of like buying a new car," Shaughnessy said. "You should kick the tires, check the lights, etc. When we do an inspection, we don't take either side, we just come in and look to see if there is a violation."
Shaughnessy also said the city would intervene only in cases that went beyond general maintenance concerns.
Shelley Clark, who represented Douglas County Legal Aid at the seminar, spoke about what frustrated landlords and tenants could accomplish legally
"I'm a strong tenant advocate." Clark said. "It is very important to get a written record of everything."
Wanda Marshall, chair of the Human Relations Commission, said that local landlords had more rights than tenants.
The seminar came after a February decision by the Lawrence City Commission to have a discussion session about housing issues.

Ethnic Albanians may add to U.S. refugee pool
WASHINGTON D.C.. Since 1975, more than 2 million refugees have settled in the United States, the State Department said.
Their changing faces reflect the world's trouble spots. More than a million came from Southeast Asia after the Vietnam War. The crumbling of the Soviet Union brought more than 350,000 refugees. In recent years, refuges have arrived from Somalia, Ethiopia and Iraq.
And now there may be more from Kosovo.
The U.S. government last week offered to grant temporary asylum to 20,000 ethnic Albanians forced out of Yugoslavia by Slobodan Milosevic's forces. Whether or not the plan will go forward is uncertain, government officials said, because conditions for refugees have become more stable in camps in Macedonia and Albania and because many expressed reluctance to go to the designated site, the U.S. military base at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.
If Kosovo refugees do make the trip, history suggests some will eventually become permanent refugees in the United States. What would they face here? History provides a guide for that, too.
Listen to America's adopted refugees, whether from Laos, Kurdistan, Cuba or Bosnia, and a common thread emerges. Even among those who have adapted to life in the United States — and most do — there is a lingering sense of loss of what they left behind.
Heart-helping medications may combat colon cancer
PHILADELPHIA — A combination of aspirin and cholesterol-lowering drugs, already used by millions of Americans to keep their hearts healthy, may also significantly lower their risk of colon cancer.
New research presented Sunday suggests that these two ubiquitous medicines appear to offer a potent — if unintended — shield against a disease that kills about 48,000 a year in the United States.
Data from both human and animal studies suggest that together, the medications may eliminate cells in the earliest stages of cancer before they grow into full-blown malignancy.

The work is based on a new analysis of the powerful class of cholesterol-lowering drugs known as statins. The research, conducted by doctors from St. Luke's-Roo
India tests missile despite U.S. appeal for restraint
WORLD
NEW DELHI, India — A new missile capable of carrying a nuclear warhead soared into the skies over India on Sunday, defying U.S. appeals for restraint in weapons testing and raising fears of a new arms race with neighboring Pakistan
India's Defense Minister George Fernandes said the successful 11-minute test flight of the Agni II missile marked a great day for India, while Pakistan said it would decide in the next two or three days how to respond.
The launch came nearly a year after India conducted a series of underground nuclear tests, prompting its rival, Pakistan to respond with tests of its own. The two countries have fought three wars since they were carved from a British colony in 1947
Pakistan was given advance warning of the launch.
In the Pakistan capital of Islamabad, Foreign Minister Sajit Aziz confirmed his government had received the warning Saturday. "We are disappointed and concerned," he said after the test. "We had decided on restraint."
White House spokesman Mike Hammers said the missile test "appears to be out of step with positive developments in the political sphere."
He said India's government informed the United States on Friday of its decision to test the missile.
Mir crew to perform tests during Friday's space walk
MOSCOW—Two crew members aboard Russia's Mir space station will perform a space walk to set up experiments and test tools designed to patch holes in the aging ship, a news report said Saturday.
Russian cosmonaut Viktor Afanasyev and French astronaut Jean-Pierre Heigneger will embark on the space walk Friday. The third crew member, Sargee Avdeyev, will monitor them from inside the Mir, Iart-Tass news agency reported.
The Mir's three-man crew is possibly its last. If outside investors cannot be found to foot the 13-year-old station's $250 million annual cash, the cash-strapped government will discard it in August.
Spektr was never repaired, and the tools never tested, because crew members at the time could not find all the module's leaks.
The repair equipment was originally designed to seal leaks in Mir's Spektr module, which was severely damaged when a runaway cargo ship slammed into it in 1997.
-The Associated Press
A typewriter, hazardous gas detector and volatile sealer-crimper were stolen between 8 a.m. June 1 and 7 p.m. April 1 from the Chemical Engineering Department in Learned Hall, the KU Public Safety Office said. The stolen property was valued at $2 903 72.
ON THE RECORD
A tool box was stolen from a Facilities Operations vehicle between 11:30 p.m. Tuesday and 6:55 a.m. Wednesday from lot 126 near the Facilities Operations building, the KU Public Safety Office said. The toolbox and its contents were valued at $276.43.
A KU student's cellular phone was stolen between 10:45 a.m. and 12:25 p.m. Wednesday from the east steps of Wescoe Hall, the KU Public Safety Office said. The phone was valued at $289.
A KU student wrecked his motorcycle when he veered to miss another KU's car at 6:27 p.m. Wednesday in lot 10 east of Joseph R. Pearson Hall, the KU Public Safety Office said. Damage to the motorcycle was minor. There was no damage to the car.
A KU student's car collided with a KU visitor's car at 7:15 p.m. Wednesday in lt 109 east of Joyhawker Towers, the KU Public Safety Office said. The cars were damaged but drivable after the accident.

Senate has added funding, permanent minority senators
Continued from page 1A
outer scheduling, but that the panelists were excellent.
Besides financing events including Black History Month, KU Queers and Allies Pride Week and the Asian-American Festival, Student Senate recently removed the yearly review clause for the five multicultural senate seats.
These positions, which give one seat to the Black Student Union, the Asian-American Student Union, KU Queers and Allies, Hispanic-American Leadership Organization and First Nations Student Association, are now as permanent as any other senate seat, Bradshaw said.
Mark Chotimongkol, who currently holds the Asian-American Student Union seat, said the multicultural seats were a good addition.
"I think its a good idea to get more minority voices in the Senate." Chotimongkol said. "Traditionally Student Senate has been very white. Most of the experience of minority students was to ask for funds."
Dede Seibel, Nunemaker senator and YOU candidate for student body vice president, has been on the finance committee for three years. She said more groups were getting more money for multicultural events.
She said many KU multicultural groups now received block allocation, which traditionally delivered larger sums of money.
Gloria Flores, former director of the Multicultural Resource Center, who took a new position at the University two weeks ago, said that in the past five years Senate had improved in its overall treatment of minorities.
"I think that the Senate has been very equitable," Flores said. "More this year than in the past."
Flores said the funding the center had received had been fair.
She thought that Senate, however, might benefit from diversity training earlier in the school year.
"I think they can always use diversity training," she said.

Pride Week activities grow
Week's events mix seriousness with fun
By T.J. Johnson
tjohnson@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Today marks the official start to an annual spring tradition at the University of Kansas — KU Queers and Allies Pride Week.
Pride Week has grown to the point of being Pride Month, with activities scheduled throughout the month of April. Speakers, rallies and parties are scheduled for the next two weeks to celebrate the queer community on campus and in Lawrence.
Marvin Decker, Pittsburgh junior and co-president of Politically Active Queers, said he thought more activities were planned for Pride Week this year than had been planned in the past.
"I think this is going to be one of the
largest Pride Weeks ever," Decker said.
Corrina Beck, Kansas City, Mo. senior and co-coordinator of Pride Week, said Pride Week was an opportunity to unite the homosexual community on campus and helped raise awareness.
"Our main goal is to instill pride in the queer community, and we also hope to teach queers and our allies something about the queer community they didn't know before."
Don Rowland, les/bi/gay translasion for the University, said the events scheduled this month could raise awareness and tolerance of queer issues even though the University is a fairly accepting environment.
"I think KU offers us a wonderful living and learning environment, but we still have gains to make," Rowland said.
The lack of spousal benefits for same-sex partners is just one example of inequality that exists at the University, Rowland said.
Documentaries, slide shows and presentations will highlight transgender issues, hate crimes, domestic violence in the queer community and other topics.
"In the face of the diversity we experience in the queer community, it is a way for us to celebrate survival and tenacity," he said. "We also get together and have a great time with people who share our goals."
Rowland also said one focus of this year's Pride Week events was to thank the ally community for its support of ouer issues.
Although Pride Week has events that address serious issues, it is also a time to celebrate, with events such as the Brown Bag Lunch drag show and the Queer Prom, Rowland said.
Multiple events are planned for almost every day this week. For a complete list of events, visit the KU Queers and Allies Web site at www.ukans.edu/ -qanda, or call the Queers &官兵 office at 864-3091.

Spring powwow includes farewell for professor
By Dan Curry
By Dan Curry dcurry@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
The First Nations Student Association's Annual Spring Powwow, which is often a time of merry-making and remembrance, lingered Saturday night in the bittersweet business of saving goodbye.
Cornel Pewewardy, assistant professor of teaching and leadership, dedicated the powwow to Luci Tapahonso, associate professor of English, and her husband Bob Martin, Haskell Indian Nations University president, who will leave to take positions at the University of Arizona next semester.
Standing at the front of the arena with their children and grandchildren, Tapahoson and Martin bid farewell to the University of Kansas and Haskell communities.
"It's hard to express how much the sort of education and the sort of gifts we've been given here mean to us," Tapahonso said.
"On behalf of our family I want to express our gratitude to the First Nation Student Association and to the University of Kansas for this honor," Martin said. "You will always be in our hearts."
The drummers struck their drums and sent up a salute that thundered through the rafters of Anschutz Sports Pavilion, high above the heads of about 400 people who attended.
As the songs began and dancers escorted
Martin and Tapahonso during an honor dance, well-wishers approached to hug them and to shake their hands.
Drum circles from South Dakota, Nebraska, Kansas City and Lawrence took turns providing the music for the dance competitions in the categories of Northern Traditional, Southern Straight, Grass, Fancy, Jingle Dress, Fancy Shaw and Southern Cloth, and Buckskin.
Each dance featured a different step and a different outfit.
In the women's Northern Traditional dance, three women in fringed dresses bobbed at the knees and slowly rotated to the beat of the song.
Daisy Begay. Lawrence resident and member of the Bine Nation, helped judge the dancing competition.
She said she rated the dancers according to the beauty of their regalia, their footwork and how well they stepped on beat.
Raven Heavy Runner, Browning, Mont., senior and president of FNSA, said more dancers and singers with greater reputations were at this year's powow.
Heavy Runner, who has attended the powwow four times at the University, said this would be his last, because he will leave Lawrence after the summer.
He said the powwow did not honor only Native-American students.
I will not use any text in the image. I have created a black and white photograph of five people standing together. They are likely members of an indigenous tribe, given their traditional attire. The image does not contain any visible text or symbols that could be analyzed for cultural significance or meaning.
This is for all KU students, he said.

Student Senate elections
YOU impresses editorial board with post-election action plans
Editor's note: The members of the Kansan editorial board interviewed the presidential and vice presidential candidates from each coalition for about an hour and a half on separate occasions. The editorial board is made up of 17 students of all ages, majors, living and student organizations, and backgrounds. The board includes the Kansan editor and managing editors. Voting was by secret ballot, and the pair who received a majority of the votes was chosen to be endorsed. Ryan Koerner, editorial editor, and Jeremy Doherty, associate editorial editor, did not vote.
A grasp of how to enact their campaign ideas secured the 1999 Kansan editorial board endorsement for Korb Maxwell and Dede Seibel, YOU candidates for president and vice president. After interviews with Maxwell and Seibel and Seth Hoffman and Mary Liu, Delta Force candidates for president and vice president, the board concluded that Maxwell and Seibel would be the most effective student leaders.
The board endorses them as next year's president and vice president and recommends that all students participate in elections Wednesday and Thursday.
Maxwell and Seibel have backgrounds with student government, administration and the Kansas legislature that KU students need in leaders, and they also have the action plans for implementing what students want.
Student concern is at the center of the YOU platform. Maxwell and Seibel determined their platform issues by surveying students. This beginning shows a commitment to what so many candidates promise: a student-centered Senate administration.
This commitment shines through in their take on the recreation center proposal. Maxwell and Seibel have not taken a stance for or against the proposal. They said that their actions, if elected, would depend solely on the student response during elections, verifying that the student voice will dictate their actions after the elections.
Safewalk, an after-hours campus safety and escort program, also was important issue for the YOU candidates. Seibel's outline for the program, through cooperation of Student Senate, Student Affairs administration and the KU Office of Public Safety, was sound. Her discussion of re-implementing the program's advisory board and following through until implementation showed Seibel's grasp of and energy for the program.
Maxwell and Seibel also were committed to the implementation of public transportation. Maxwell has a clear understanding of city and state government and the desire to work with both groups to make integrated transportation available to KU students.
Maxwell and Seibel also discussed the need for more student outreach. Roving Senate meetings, an idea that has been tested
a few times this year,
is a main goal of the
candidates. The board
was pleased with
their determination
to take Senate to the
students instead of
making the students
come to Senate.
A final factor was the amount of experience that the YOU candidates would bring to the positions. Although previous Senate experience was not the board's only priority, Maxwell and Seibel bring more than five years of combined experience with Senate and its committees, Student Legislative Awareness Board and university governance as well as student organizations. Their familiarity with legislation on both the campus and state levels will serve students well

Although Hoffman and Liu did share many of these concerns, such as the implementation of Safewalk and a commitment to public transportation, the board thought that YOU's concrete, post-election ideas better suited Maxwell and Seibel for the positions.
Hoffman, a Pearson Scholarship Hall resident, and Liu, a McCollum Hall resident, are representatives of student groups that have not led Senate for several years. The board did not see the decision for YOU as a recommendation of the status quo because Maxwell and Seibel demonstrated a drive for bettering the University of Kansas that will not allow them to settle for the status quo.
We believe that Maxwell and Seibel can and will make their campaign ideas — the concerns of students — heard. They have the energy and experience to implement new initiatives, reach out to students and improve Senate and campus life.
Editor's note: The Kansan editorial board surveyed the 116 Student Senate candidates. They were asked to submit their name, year in school, major, previous Senate involvement, and campus and community involvement.
In addition, they were asked to answer the following questions in about 25 words;
How can you best represent your constituents?
What would you do to show Student Senate?

A check mark indicates an endorsement by the editor on board. The board did not necessarily endorse a candidate for each available seat. Only candidates who received a majority of votes were endorsed. Because there was a tie between two candidates in the School of Architecture, three candidates were endorsed for two seats.

The experience I have gained by being a student this year will help me best to serve my constituents next year. In addition to that, I hope to provide the off-campus students with some sort of outlet to express their concerns with the University and Student Senate.
I think that Senate is set up wonderfully. However, I think that we could do more to get the rest of the KU community involved in the entire process. I would propose some kind of program to get students involved in the governmental process. I think that this is extraordinarily important.

Seibel said students should vote for her and Maxwell because they had proven their leadership abilities and had a variety of ideas they hoped to implement.
Seibel was a program coordinator for the Center for Community Outreach for one year, and was a Panhellenic representative to the judicial board. She has been active in her sorority, Chl Omega, but said that she mainly had tried to be active outside her sorority.
YOU coalition focuses on student concerns
Maxwell was a College of Liberal Arts and Sciences senator for a year and is active in his fraternity, Sigma Chi. He is on the Dole advisory committee for the Robert J. Dole Institute, and is a member of the Kansas Union expansion committee and the Chancellor's public service task force.
Maxwell said what he enjoyed most about the University was
seeing the red leaves change color as he drove along 15th Street and Jayhawk Boulevard during the fall. Also, he said he was amazed by the number of dedicated students involved in on and off-campus activities at the University, which he said had a perfect student population.
"It's big but you don't feel alienated by it," Maxwell said. "It seems like you can walk down Jayhawk Boulevard and you know tons of faces. There's a sense of community, but there are always new people to meet."
Seibel said her favorite thing about being a KU student was how easy it was to become involved in the hundreds of student organizations. Also, she said that she liked the University's diversity.
"I like that I can walk down campus and hear two or three different languages at a time," Seibel said.

"I'd be able to offer new insights," Liu said. "I haven't been doing this for two or three years. I'm something new to Senate."
She said she wanted to strengthen Senate and let students know that its main purpose was to work for the student body, so that students would feel more comfortable about becoming involved.
Liu also was an intern at the first LeaderShape conference and was the AURH American
Red Cross blood drive coordinator for a year and a half.
Hoffman, a Pearson Scholarship Hall resident for three years, was the hall's president and All Scholarship Hall Council senator last year. He was an orientation assistant last summer and is the vice chairman of SenEx.
Hoffman said his favorite activity at the University was to spend an afternoon or evening at a Kansas baseball game.
Liu said what she enjoyed most about being a KU student was finding her niche as a Daisy Hill resident and her involvement in residence hall governance.

Museum Day celebrates exhibits
By Matt Merkel-Hess
Special to the Kansan
The Milfoil of Venus
The bubbly voices of children filled the Spencer Museum of Art yesterday as visitors worked on activities at the 19th annual Museum Day, held at four campus museums.
Parents and children made up most of the crowd of about 200, but off to the side, children-at-heart Charyse Herman, 36, and Gabriella Kehmer, 39, sat on the floor using Polaroid snapshots to create self-portraits.
The two had decided to visit a museum and arrived to find the museums bustling with visitors and special events for Museum Day. The art museum was their third stop.
"It's so much more fun." Kehmer said. "We wouldn't have gone to so many museums if this hadn't happened."
About 400 people visited the Natural History Museum throughout the day. A formal dedication of the mosaasaur skeleton, the newest permanent exhibit, began shortly after 12:30 p.m. and was attended by about 75 people.
"This is literally the largest lizard of all time," said Larry Martin, curator of vertebrate paleontology, of the fossil, which was found near Scott City. The display, a 60-foot cast of the swimming lizard's bones, was completed last September.
Bob Sieber and Dave Gomez, Facilities Operations employees, who put the bone casts together and assembled the skeleton, were present with their families.
"It was a challenge," Sieber said. "But it was fun and a good experience."
They worked about seven hours a day beginning last March to mount the skeleton. Sieber said.
Emily Gerry,7,a museum member, came to the museums with her brother David,4,a friend,B.J.Simpson,5,and her parents, Martin and Beatrice.

Time the games, Enjoy said:
She is interested in science and recently switched her career plans from astronaut to paleontologist.
"I like the games," Emily said.
This was the Gerry family's second Museum Day.
"There are wonderful activities for kids and its very hands on," Beatrice Gerry said. "It makes science come to life."
About 150 people stopped by the Museum of Anthropology to take a museum quiz, see a mock-up of an archaeological dig and make bracelets out of recycled objects such as bottle caps, wire, yarn and aluminum discs.
"The idea is that various things get recycled, and it's not just a thing we've done in the past 20 years," said Shelly Berger. Mason. Mich._graduate student.
The smallest of the museums, the Wilcox Classical Museum, was busy for its size with a group of about 70. Three members of Eta Sigma Phi, the classics department honors club, helped visitors.

Homeless Sleepout raises $1,600 for Jubilee Cafe
By Dan Curry
dcurry@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Burcham Park gets bone-cold at night when the air slides off the Kaw River and moves onto the shadowed banks like an expected and unwelcome relative.
That's why the people who slept there could see their breath when they spoke.
That's why they d:ank cocoa and huddled in groups to keep warm.
That's why the students and community members, who decided to spend a night outdoors by the river, raised more than $1,600 in donations for the Jubilee Cafe, a program that serves a hot breakfast restaurant-style to anyone who needs it.
The Homeless Sleepout, sponsored by the Center of Community Outreach, brought out more than 100 people last Friday for a night of feasting on contributed food, listening to funk music and hearing people without homes tell a story or read a poem.
Students asked people for pledges, and community businesses donated food and coffee, said Christina Harms, coordinator for Into The Streets Week. All proceeds went to benefit the Jubilee Cafe
Harms, Wichita sophomore, said the event was a success, both in numbers of people who participated and numbers of dollars raised.
"I'm glad people are here," Harms said.
"That's what I'm most happy about."
Harms said there was a lot the Lawrence community still needed to do to take care of people without homes, such as financing a year-round homeless shelter, which the city lacks.
She said she hoped the Homeless Sleep-out raised awareness of these needs.
"I just think that once people see what's happening it will spur people to do something about it." Harms said.
Paul Bryant, a recent candidate for city commission and a former GTA at the University of Kansas, said his homelessness was not something he just let happen.
"This problem is a social disease rather than some just punishment for peoples' misdeeds." Brvant said.
Bryant said his only ticket out of being homeless or going to jail was to publish the book he had been writing — and that was a long shot.
"How many people do you know who can publish their book?" he asked.
The book exposes what Bryant sees as unfair and unethical policies of credit card companies.
Bryant, who has been homeless for more than a year, now catches four hours of sleep on the sticky floor of a convenience shop or spends part of the night in his car, he said.
Into the Streets Week raised more than $2,000 for local community services.
"That's a lot of meals," said Chris Hess, one of the directors of the Center for Community Outreach. "That's a big impact."

Controversial Christ film draws 150 to Kansas Union
By Jennifer Roush
jrush@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
A crowd of about 150 people saw Martin Scorsese's controversial film The Last Temptation of Christ Friday night at Woodruff Auditorium in the Kansas Union. It was the first time the movie had been shown on campus in the past five years.
The movie, which was released in theaters in 1988, has been protested and condemned for its stark portrayal of Jesus as a man
struggling with his conflicting duties to God and his family and friends. The last temptation mentioned in the title refers to the guardian angel sent by Satan to remove Jesus from the cross at Calvary and allow him to live out his life as a mortal man.
Alexis Stevens, executive director of the KU chapter of the American Civil Liberties Union, said she and Buddy Lloyd, KU ACLU president, had approached Student Union Activities in February about showing the film on campus.
"We wanted to do it because the movie has been censored since it came out by various groups and religious organizations," Stevens said. "We didn't do it to offend anyone. It was an exercise of our freedoms."
She said employees at Kino kept a running file of incidents at colleges that were related to the film.
Jessica Rosner, director for non-theatrical releases at Kino International, the company that distributes the film, said she knew of at least three colleges that tried to ban the film.
In fact, Rosner said the movie had raised so much controversy since its release that the cans that contained the rolls of film were not labeled with the movie's title. Instead, they are labeled as "The Event," to discourage potential theft or vandalism to the film.
Many of the students who attended the movie did so because of the controversy surrounding it.
Neill Barnes, Lawrence sophmore, said he went to the movie because he was a member of KU ACLU and had heard about the movie but had never seen it.
"It caused such controversy because it showed Christ as more human than the fundamentalists liked," Barnes said.
Other students saw the movie as educational as well as controversial.
"I came partly because of the controversy, partly because of history and partly because I just love movies," said Melineh Kurdian, Wichita junior. "Anything that makes people think is a good thing," she said. "I was quite pleased."

Brownback: Abortion hurting U.S.
Senator says policy draining workforce, Social Security funds
The Associated Press
EL DORADO — Sen. Sam Brownback said Friday that Social Security was in trouble in part because too many abortions meant too few workers available to pay into the system.
"A lot of people won't like this comment," the Kansas Republican said to an audience of high school and college students at Butler County Community College. "You can see a real impact in the abortion policy we've had in this country. We have a lot fewer people out here. You can see we have a lot fewer workers
coming on board."
At a later speech in Wichita, Brownback stopped short of that assertion.
Instead, he joked with Chamber of Commerce members that some had done their part by having children — and that more needed to get started.
A similar tongue-in-cheek comment brought chuckles from the young crowd in El Dorado.
"You all can have a lot more kids," he said, pointing to the students. "You need to think about having five or six more children in the family, instead of two or three."
Because there is no money in the Social Security Trust Fund, those currently working pay the benefits of those who are retired.
But this funding setup can work only as long as more people are paying into the system than are receiving checks. By
2013, as the baby boomers leave the work force, retirees will overwhelm the system.
Still, Brown b a c k ' s remark took some people aback.

backs fixing the economy of this country by having more children," said an older woman in the audience in El Dorado.
She also told Brownback he should not blame women who have had abortions for shortcomings in the Social Security system.
"I'm not blaming women," Brownback responded.
Brownback's prescription also includes setting up personal retirement accounts and bolstering the Social Security trust fund.
Friday marked Brownback's last day on a weeklong "town forum" tour of nine cities during the congressional recess.
About 100 people turned out in El Dorado and again in Wichita to listen to Brownback's ideas about saving Social Security, providing tax relief and paying off the national debt.
Niger's president slain
Military leader takes over government
The Associated Press
NIAMEY, Niger — The head of the presidential guard unit that diplomats and witnesses say assassinated Niger's president has been named the new leader of this West African nation, the government announced Sunday.
Daudou Malam Wanke was named president and head of the National Council for Reconciliation, which will lead Niger for a nine-month transition period, state-run radio reported.
Niamey, Niger LIBYA ALGERIA NIGER MALI CHAD Niamey NIGERIA Rachel Kesselman/KANSAN
Military spokesman Hamidou Djibrla said the military also had ordered the Supreme Court and National Assembly dissolved and the Constitution suspended, in what amounted to a complete ouster of the government of Ibrahim Bare Mainassara.
"The armed forces of Niger understand the gravity of the situation and decided to put to rest the institutional void created by the sudden death of Gen. Bare, Djibrila told journalists in Niamey.
Bare was killed Friday in a hall of gunfire at Nianey's airport as he prepared to board a helicopter. He was
buried Sunday in his home village,
185 miles east of the capital, Nianye
Although the exact motives for Bare's death remain unclear, he was not a popular figure. He seized power in an army coup three years ago from Niger's first democratically elected government.
He faced down repeated military mutinies and protests by students and civil servants, and earned opposition wrath by imprisoning some of their leaders. Bare's close relatives received lucrative government jobs while soldiers went months without being paid.
Officials did not say Sunday whether the transition program would involve elections or an eventual transfer to civilian rule.
Ireland's IRA opposes British-Irish peace plan
The Associated Press
DUBLIN, Ireland — Spokesmen for the Irish Republican Army said Saturday that the outlawed group opposes the latest compromise plan for making Northern Ireland's peace accord work.
The IRA's confidential briefings to Dublin journalists came one year to the day after eight Northern Ireland parties and the British and Irish governments struck the accord. It proposed creating a new Protestant-Catholic government for Northern Ireland that has yet to be formed.
The British and Irish prime ministers, Tony Blair and Bertie Ahern, on April 1 published a compromise plan that they said could quickly clear the way to forming the government. Northern Ireland politicians are to discuss it when negotiations resume Tuesday in Belfast.
The Ahern-Blair plan proposed that the IRA allied Sinn Fein party should be entitled to receive two posts in Northern Ireland's future government — but that the IRA in return must start to disarm within a month of the Sinn Fein appointments, and shortly before the
British government actually devolved powers to any of the government's 12 members.
The major Protestant party, the Ulster Unionists, has refused to share power with Sinn Fein unless the IRA starts disarming. But Ulster Unionist leader Trimble, who would lead the government, welcomed the prime ministers' formula as a fair compromise.
By contrast, Saturday's IRA briefings — the identities and locations of the spokesmen were kept secret — emphasized the group's total opposition to any initiative that requires the IRA to start disarming.
Although the peace accord envisioned that the IRA completely disarm by May 2000, the IRA spokesmen said the accord did not make this a condition for Sinn Fein's involvement in the government.
The spokesmen for the IRA, which has previously vowed never to disarm, refused to discuss the prospect Saturday, the first anniversary of the peace accord, reached April 10, 1998. But they said disarmament should not be seen as a reward for the Ulster Unionists" "veto" over political progress.
NATO discovers possible mass grave
Finding comes as air campaign eases for holiday
The Associated Press.
BELGRADE, Yugoslavia — Saying it showed restraint in deference to the Orthodox Easter holiday, NATO nonetheless hammered Serb targets in

Kosovo on Sunday.
Western officials,
meanwhile,
expressed growing alarm over reports of atrocities in the province and said a possible mass grave site had been spotted.
Milocevic; Held responsible by NATO for 'enhancing cleansing'
Shortly after nightfall, a missile struck a residential area of the northern city of Novi Sad, the official Tanjug news agency reported. There were no immediate reports of casualties. About 20 minutes after the detonation, air raid sirens sounded in Belgrade.
In Belgium, NATO spokesman Jamie Shea showed aerial photographs of a site in Puso Selo, southwest of the Kosovo capital, Pristina. He said that from the air it appeared the ground had been freshly turned over, and that the site looked "somewhat similar" to aerial shots of mass graves seen during the war in Bosnia.
"I suspect that we are going to find more and more evidence of mass graves, mass executions, some pretty horrific stories." Defense Secretary William Cohen said on ABC's This Week.
About 400,000 people have fled their homes and are hiding in forests and mountains, terrified of Serb forces, British Foreign Secretary Robin Cook said Sunday
after talking to an ethnic Albanian political leader in Kosovo. Cook said NATO holds Yugoslav President Slobodan Milosevic responsible for these "victims of his ethnic cleansing."
British officials also said about 100,000 ethnic Albanian men are apparently missing. The estimate, based on fewer than expected men turning up among refugees crossing into Macedonia and Albania, revived speculation that the men had either been massacred by Serbs, joined the rebel Kosovo Liberation Army or were being hostage.
Many of the refugees managing to get across intermittently open borders — more than half a million — tell of their villages being burned and emptied.
In what was apparently a grim aftermath of a frenzy of violence, tape obtained but not filmed by Associated Press Television News showed a burned, deserted village just over the Macedonian border. Ethnic Albanians said it had been emptied in a recent assault.
Belgrade was unscathed in overnight air attacks, but 50 bombs hit in and around Pristina. The city's Slatina airport was hit more than two dozen times, the Serb-run Media Center said.
Shea said targets that were hit by NATO bombs and missiles included a fuel depot in Pristina, ammunition depots, bridges, communications facilities and air defense installations.
Yugoslavia's telecommunications system was beginning to collapse because "of the extensive damage inflicted on it" by the airstrikes, Tanjug quoted Dojiclo Radojevic, the telecommunications minister, as saying Sunday.
According to Yugoslav officials, 300 civilians have been killed and 3,000 injured during the bombing campaign. There was no way to independently verify the figures. Yugoslavia does not disclose military casualties.

Men lose five in home match, honor seniors
By Melinda Weaver sports@kansan.com Kansan saintwriter Kansan writer
Despite senior Kenny Powell's heart-filled performance in his last home match, the Kansas men's tennis team could not produce a win against No. 21 Texas A&M, 14-3 overall, 6-0 in the conference.
The No. 40 Jayhawks, 10-5 overall, 2-3 in the conference, played two of the top teams in the Big 12 Conference this weekend, losing to No. 5 Texas 5-2 and Texas A&M 5-2.
However, Kansas kept the two teams in close range. The team lost a total of five tie-breakers this weekend, two against Texas and three against Texas A&M.
"We played two pretty good matches this weekend," Coach Mark Riley said. "The big thing is we lost five tie-breakers. We have to learn from that. We have to be more aggressive in tough matches. The top teams keep playing tough, and we can't back off."
The Jayhawks continued to struggle in their doubles matches, losing the doubles point in both contests and using solid singles to keep the scores close.
Against Texas, 15-5 overall, 40 in the conference, the two points came from freshmen Quentin Blakeney and Rodrigo Echagaray at No. 5 and No. 6 singles.
Blakeney's winning streak of 11 games, the longest streak for any freshman in the '90s, ended yesterday in a three-set loss to Texas A&M'S Juan Aramburo 6-4.3.6.4.
I hate to see Quentin's streak end," Riley said. "He plays great tennis. He's easy to coach. He takes what I tell him, and he tries to do it. He's open to advice, even under pressure, which is hard."
Before the singles' matches against Texas A&M, Riley hon
ored seniors Luis Uribe and Powell for their achievements during their Jayhawk careers.
Powell ended his last performance on the Robinson courts in style, defeating Brent Horan 6-2, 6-3.
"It has just hit me these last two days because things have gone by so fast," Powell said. "It seems like just yesterday I was a freshman at Georgia Tech. I keep telling the freshmen, don't miss any of it because it flies by. It's hard to believe this is my last match at home."
Powell transferred to Kansas as a junior from Georgia Tech.
Powell has posted a 63-42 career singles record and a 52-38 career doubles record. Powell is 10-5 in singles this spring after making the jump from No. 4 to No. 2.
"I think it's a lack of self-confidence right now," Uribe said. "It has been getting better, but I've got to get it together. This stretch at the end of the semester is the most important part of our season."
No. 18 Uribe continued to struggle, losing in straight sets to Shuon Madden 7-6, 6-3.
"I feel very comfortable with our No. 1 and No. 2 players," Riley said. "It has been a while since the two of them have won together, but when we do, we will do some damage."
Uribe has won 102 singles matches in his career, fourth in Kansas history, and 91 doubles matches, fifth in Kansas history.
Overall, Powell said he was pleased with the team's performance this weekend, proving it could compete with the top Big 12 schools.
Echagaray had another victory against Texas A&M, defeating Jarin Skube 6-2, 6-3.
The Jayhawks look forward to more tough matches as they face No. 8 Baylor and No. 28 Texas Tech next weekend.

Receiver trades hoops for field
Former basketball standout shines in football practice
by Michael T. Rigg
sports@kansan.com
Kansas writer
Standing at 6-5 and weighing in at 185 pounds, Kansas wide receiver Anton Paige said head football coach Terry Allen wasn't the only Kansas coach impressed by his athletic ability and tall stature.
"Roy [Williams] and his staff called me and said to give basketball a try," said Paige, who up until his senior year of high school was known more for his skills on the basketball court than the gridiron. "But the football coaches said I couldn't do it."
The transition would come easily for Paige. At Wellington High School in Royal Palm Beach, Fla., Paige didn't even play football until his senior season. Instead, he was named honorable mention all-state for the basketball team, averaging a teambest 16 points, seven rebounds, and three assists a game. These stats impressed the Palm Beach Post enough to name him that newspaper's 1997 Basketball Player of the Year.
When he finally decided to strap on pads in 1996, Paige dominated the field, leading his county with 29 receptions for 587 yards en route to being named third team all-state in football.
Why the sudden transition into a two-sport athlete? "I wanted to try as many sports as I could while I still had the chance." Paige said.
Paige was given several offers to play basketball after high school, including schools such as North Carolina State, he said. The fact that he was even looked at by college football recruiters came as a surprise to him.
"It was surprising," Paige said. "I was very impressed with what I had done when I started getting offers for football."
Becoming the first football/basketball dual athlete at Kansas since Robert Reed attempted it in 1994 proved to be too tall an order for the lanky Paige, but Allen already is looking for Paige to do big things on the football field this season.
Having already been tabbed one of the major surprises of spring practices after redshirting last season, Paige has moved from a relative unknown to running patterns with the first team.
The impressive spring showing so far hasn't been imored by Allen and his staff.
"We've talked about him on several occasions," Allen said. "He's been one of the pleasant surprises in the spring."
Paige said he brought some size to the receiving corps and loosened up the defense, both of which worked to the Javhawks' advantage.
"I force the defense to change," said Paige. "If I make the defense double-team me, someone else is open."
Spring Football Notes
- Kansas held a full scrimmage, complete with officials, for the first time this spring Saturday, consisting of 109 plays.
One touchdown and a field goal were scored by the respective offenses, with wide receiver Eric Patterson outrunning the defense for the touchdown, and place kicker Joe Garcia connecting on a field goal.
Overall, Allen was impressed by his team's effort. "I think it went pretty well," said Allen. "We staved relatively injury-free, which is a positive."
Allen said the scrimmage directly coincided with his major goals of this season.
"Going into the year, I said that there were three things we really needed to do a better job of," Allen said. "We need to get better players, do a better job of coaching and eliminate the little things."
The "little things" were enough to worry Allen after the scrimmage, as he said he was disappointed with the 11 penalties his team committed.
The Jayhawks, however, did not stay completely injury-free during the scrimmage. Linebacker Mitchell Scott injured his knee during one of the last sets of plays, but Allen said the injury was not serious.
Scott has a history of knee problems, and had surgery last year to repair torn cartilage in his knee.
■ Linebacker Algie Atkinson turned heads on Saturday when he jumped over the line for a sack. Allen said the athletic play of Atkinson was why he was competing to be a starter this season.
"Algie showed today the things that we get excited about him as far as his athleticism out there, being able to jump around," Allen said.

Jayhawk baseball team swept by Tigers
Tourney hopes fade with continued losses

It wasn't exactly the way the Kansas baseball team wanted to start this stretch of the season, but the Jayhawks traveled to Missouri this weekend for a three-game series and were swept — 7-4, 9-1, 14-12.
The losses push Kansas' losing streak to nine games and put a serious damper on the possibility of earning a berth in the Big 12 tournament.
Sunday's game saw the Jayhawks jump out to an early 6-0 lead. The 'Hawks managed three hits in the first inning, but capitalized on three Tiger errors and scored six runs.
The runs all came with two outs and
were manufactured by putting together singles, doubles and triples.
the outburst in the first was the last time the Jayhawks threatened until the ninth.
Trailing 14-6 going into the ninth inning, the Jayhawks rallied for six more runs, all earned, but fell short of a comebreak, losing 14-12. Tiger pitcher Mitch Kiler came into the ninth and earned the first save of his career.
Third baseman Ryan Klocksien and first baseman Chad King provided most of the offense for the Jayhawks. Klocksien had three hits, scored two runs and drove in another, while King had two hits, scored two and knocked in three.
Baseball
The final loss of the sweep dropped Kansas' overall record to 10-27 and 4-17 in Big 12 play. The Tigers have won eight straight and have moved into the eighth and final postseason spot with a record of 22-13, and 6-9.
In Saturday's game Kansas was dominated from start to finish. The Tigers cruised out to an early 7-0 lead and never looked back. Tiger starter Chris George held Kansas to one run on seven hits in the complete-game win.
Kansas starter Brian Schriner only gave up six hits in five innings, but allowed seven runs. Peter Smart came in and pitched the final three innings, holding the Tiger bats down, but the Jayhawk offense never woke up and they were defeated 9-1.
Catcher Shane Wedd had two hits, including a double, and second baseman Brandon O'Neal also delivered a
"We did some good things today." Randall said. "We hit a lot of balls hard, but right at them. Pete Smart came in and did some nice things in relief, but Chris George pitched a great game for them."
Despite the loss, coach Bobby Randall managed to see something positive in an otherwise negative situation.
In Friday's game, every Jayhawk starter recorded a hit, and four Jayhawks — shortstop John Nelson, three, outfieldder Doug Dreher, two, Wedd, two and O'Neal, two — had multiple-hit games.

Kansas made a rally, but fell short losing 7-4.
The Jayhawks, who are in 10th place in the Big 12, will face Wichita State at Hoglund Ballpark Tuesday night at 7 p.m.

Women's tennis improves regional standing
By Amanda Kaschube

The windy conditions at Saturday's tennis match caused chairs to blow onto the courts and serves to fly over fences. Despite these conditions, the women's tennis team convincingly defeated Central Region foe Tulsa 6-3 before heading into the doubles portion.
The Jayhawks improved to 5-2 in the Central Region and extended their winning streak to four against Tulsa.
The Jayhawks won five of the six singles matches for the third time in the last four matches.
Coach Jenny Garrity said the match was a must-win and said the team did a good job of taking care of business.
"They knew the match was important and they did a good job of preparing for it." she said. "Monica

Julia Sidorova and Lisa Malliai also improved their records by winning at No. 5 and No. 6 singles respectively.
Assistant Coach Amy Hall was out of town for personal reasons, so men's coach Mark Riley filled in for her.
"He definitely helped Brooke and Monica in their matches," Garrity said. "He helped Brooke stay focused and kept Monica's head in the match."
The Jayhawks will face in-state and conference rival Kansas State at 3 p.m. on Wednesday at Robinson Courts.

Today's Birthday (April 12).
HOROSCOPES
Finish up obligations this year. Making changes for the better will be easy. You're lucky and strong in April, so make big plans for the future. A friendship could turn into a romance in May or June. Do something you've always dreamed about in August and get rid of old debts in November.
Give yourself the gift of travel in December and hear a friend's advice concerning you in February. You may learn a secret in March. If so, keep it.
Aries (March 21-April 19): Today is a 5
Worries about a close friend or neighbor could cloud your thinking today. Instead of leaving your questions unsaid, go ahead and ask them. Once you know what's going on, you can get into action. Once you're in action, everything will be fine.
Taurus (April 20-May 20): Today is a 6
You and your friends need to talk about important matters today. You may not get all of them to settle yet, but you'll sure come up with some good ideas. Besides that, you'll have a great time, and you'll make each other stronger. Together you'll have lots more fun.
Gemini (May 21-June 21): Today is a 5
Don't try to use reason with an emotional person. It's not going to get you anywhere. You'll be better off to listen and take notes. Once the other guy feels really heard, he or she will be more willing to negotiate.
Wait until then to offer your suggestions.
Cancer (June 22-July 22): Today is a 7 Your intuition should be working pretty well today. That's important, because you're up against tough competition. Somebody's ordering you around, to your dismay. It might be wise to comply, however, especially if there's lots of money involved.
Leo (Julv 23-Aug. 22): Today is a 5
July 25- Aug. 22; today is a 5
You may very well have more bills than money today.
If so, don't despair, but don't out buying that new
toy you've been yearning for, either. Put that off for
just a little while longer. You may just find you can do
without it.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Today is a 6
Looks like your partner is right, so go along with that idea. It's not fully figured out yet, and that's where your input comes in. Let fantasy get you inspired, then put in reality checks.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Today is a 5
LUJR (spa) - 23-09. 2014. It is a day you have really got your work out out for you today.
Besides that, it looks like you could be saddled with a whim coworker. Instead of being irritated, be compassionate.
Once this person has had a chance to talk, he or she could come up with a brilliant plan. And you might need one.
Scarpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Today is a 7
The subject of money could arise today, and if it does, take care. You might simply disagree with the person you love most. It is a hot topic anyway, so do not press. Your chances of reaching a compromise will be better tomorrow.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Today is a 5 You are in a pretty good mood today, but a conversation with someone at home could take up more time than you'd planned. It could even be a television show that gets you entranced and makes you late for your next appointment. You are just going to have to keep track of the time.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Today is a 7
You've got a couple of tough problems to deal with, but that's OK. You're smart today and getting smarter. Take on a challenge and start by doing the homework. Once you figure out what the problem is, the rest is going to be easy. You just have to learn a new skill, that's all.
Aquarius Jan. 20-Feb. 18!: Today is a 5
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Today is a 5
you know about a lot of things, but money probably
is not one of them. That's quite often an Aquarian
deficiency, and it's because you're more interested in
ideas than in filthy luce. A little folding green comes
in handy if you want to get a few ideas across.
P
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Today is a 6 You're looking great today, with the moon in your sign. Mercury's there, too, making you even more brilliant than usual. But you might also be feeling more generous, which could be dangerous. You may feel as though you're made of money, and you aren't. Take care if you go shopping in nice stores.

NEW YORK — Richard Callaghan, who coached Tara Lipinski to an Olympic gold medal, has been accused by one of his former figure skaters of sexual misconduct.
Brandon Stinnett
Callaghan said he was shocked by the unsubstantiated allegations. He said through his lawyer that his accuser is emotionally troubled.
Olympic skating coach accused of misconduct
Craig Maurizi, who skated for Callaghan, said in a story in The New York Times yesterday that they began having sex in 1981 and he now thinks he was exploited.
Callaghan denied having a sexual relationship with Maurizi, the newspaper said. Callaghan contends the accusations are a play to rob him of his skaters at the Detroit Skating Club, where he had been director of skating.
Callaghan's lawyer, Dean Groux,
said Sunday his client always considered Craig to be an invaluable member of his extended family.
Groux added that Callaghan and his wife hope Maurizi will be able to resolve his emotional problems.

LEXINGTON, Ky. — Not long after trainer Zito Zito watched Wonderdress finish sixth in Blue Grass Stakes at Keeneland, he was shouting, "Gad, Adonis, go."
While Menifee and at least the next four finishers in the eight-horse Toyota Blue Grass — Cat Thief, Vicar, Kimberlite Pipe and Lemon Drop Kid — are headed for the Derby on May 1, so is Valhol, who had not won a race until the Arkansas Derby on Saturday at Oaklawn Park.

In-state battle ends in draw
Jayhawk, Wildcat soccer clubs continue rivalry at Arrowhead

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Anyone who thinks the Kansas-Kansas State rivalry is only for football and basketball should have attended the men's club soccer game on Saturday at Arrowhead Stadium.

The two teams played in front of about 500 enthusiastic fans following the Kansas City Wizards game with San Jose.
The archrivals battled to a 3-3 draw. The Jayhawks fell behind early 2-0, but cut the lead in half before halftime.
"They came out a lot sharper than us," Kansas coach Carl Eaton said. "It took us a good 10 to 15 minutes to get it right, and then I felt we tore them up."
The game heated up early in the second half when Kansas' captain, Eric Gray, was ejected after a scuffle inside the Wildcat
penalty area.
"We weren't disciplined at times, and we talked about it afterwards, but when we lost it out there. I think that's when they came back." Eaton said.
Matt McCune equalized for the Jayhawks a few minutes later with a goal from the Wildcat penalty box.
"Koby Root was unselfish and he laid it across the box and I just put it in," he said. "I sort of willed it in the goal actually, but it was all Koby."
The Wildcats retook the lead, but Kansas battled back and tied the game when Ian Gray finished off a passing sequence and scramble in the penalty box.
Kansas State was awarded a penalty kick minutes later, but goalkeeper Jared Coffin denied it, keeping the score deadlocked at two.
with less than 10 minutes left.
The Jayhawks finished the game two men down after the sending off of Ryan Granzella
The game is annually played at Arrowhead, and many Jayhawks felt fortunate to play on the good surface.
"It was a regular-sized field and smooth, rather than the rough terrain and small fields in Lawrence," Granzella said.
"It's exciting for these guys, and a surprising crowd for the better of the two games," Eaton said, referring to the Wizards' defeat earlier. "We're pleased with the results in the end, but we are disappointed in the two goals we let in early and that we lost two players."

The men's and women's track teams combined for 16 first-place finishes and won the K.T. Woodman Classic at Wichita State University on Saturday.
The Jayhawks combined to score 275 points, followed by Wichita State with 259 points and Missouri-Kansas City with 241 points.
Two-time All-American Scott Russell led the charge, winning the javelin, discus, hammer throw and finishing second in the shot put. His throw of 198-11 in the hamster was the third best mark in Kansas his

tory, while his mark of 236-3 in the javelin was good for fourth best. Both marks provisionally qualified him for the NCAA Championships in June.
"I tried throwing what I could to get the win, but it turned out that I had a really good day," Russell said.
Two other Jayhaws set personal bests Saturday as Colby Miller vaulted 17-6 3/4 and won the pole vault, and Charlie Gruber ran the fourth fastest 300-meter run time in school history, winning in 1:48.30. Both marks also provisionally qualified them for the NCAA Championships.
"I just got out fast and felt really good," Gruber said. "The wind helped a little bit on the backstretch, but I felt like I could've gone faster."
TRACK AND FIELD
Other winners on the men's
team included Jabari Wamble in the 400-meter run, Ryan Speers in the shot put, Kevin McGinn in the 1,500-meter run, Brian Blachly in the 3,000-meter run, Dorian Jordan in the high jump, and Lester Smith in the triple jump.
The 4x400 meter relay team of Grady Blackmon, Tywanne Aldridge, Gruber and Dave Tolmin also won a title with its season-best time of 3:16.03.
Marlea Woodman scored 17 points for the women's team, winning the discus with a mark of 140-5, and finished second in both the shot put and the hammer.
Three-time All-American Candy Mason and two-time AllAmerican Andrea Branson scored 15 points apiece for the women's team. Mason won the long jump, leaping 18-9, while finishing third in both the 110-meter hurdles and high jump.
Branson won the pole vault with a mark of 13-0, and finished second in the triple jump and fourth in the long jump.
Jennifer Foster won the shot put with a throw of 43-4 1/4 inches and finished third in the discus and fourth in the hammer.
The Jayhawks compete in two of the biggest meets of their season in the next two weeks, with the Mount Sac Invitational and the Drake Relays.

In a game dominated mostly by the Jayhawks, the Kansas women's soccer team could not quite find the net and played to a 1-1 tie against St. Louis University on Saturday afternoon at SuperTarget Field.
On Sunday the Jayhawks traveled to Columbia, Mo., where they notched two victories, defeating Evansville and Tulsa.
In the Evansville game, the team got goals from Meghann Haven and Natalie Hoogveld in a 2-1 decision. Against Tulsa, Colleen Colvin scored off an assist from Melissa Downing giving the Jayhawks a 10 win.
From start to finish, the Jayhawks maintained control of Saturday's game, but missed opportunities to score.
"I felt we really dominated the game. As far as opportunities to score, we had a lot more than they did but unfortunately we didn't convert them," head coach Mark Francis said.
Despite its good play, the team still is not satisfied with the tie.
"I think it went well, but I think we should have won," defender Melanie Schroeder said.
The lone goal for the Jay-
hawks came at the 34:09
mark of the first half when,
after a St. Louis penalty
inside the box, Schroeder
blasted a penalty kick into
the lower-right corner of the
net past St. Louis keeper
Katie Grellinger.
The Billikens responded with a solid second-half effort. They answered with a goal of their own at the 68:15 mark when midfielder Kathleen Schager scored on a follow-up past Kansas backup keeper Betsy Pollard, who made a diving attempt.
The Kansas attack was led by Lindsey Horner, Katie Lents and Kyle Watts, each of whom had three shots, Katie Garrity had five saves in goal for the Javhawks.
"The thing that I was most happy about was that the things we've done in practice that we've worked on, they actually put on to the field and executed in the game," Francis said.
Francis said he was pleased with the overall effort of his team.
Francis praised his defense for its strong effort and said that three of the four defenders normally play other positions. He was especially pleased with Schroeder's play.
"We have Mel Schroeder in back, and she's normally a forward. She's going to give us a lot of offense when we get her back to her normal position," Francis said. "She's one of those kids you can really put anywhere. She's got that kind of ability."
The game marked the first for Kansas under Francis.

Olazabal wins Masters
Greg Norman again falls short of green jacket
The Associated Press
AUGUSTA, Ga.—The only redemption Sunday belonged to Jose Maria Olazabal.
Unable to walk three years ago and fearing his career had ended. Olazabal stole the thunder from Greg Norman and won the Masters for the second time.
Just when it looked as though Norman might finally redeem himself from three past failures at Augusta National by making a 30-foot eagle on the 13th hole and taking the lead, Olazabal suk in a birdie putt, creating a tie.
The rest of the day belonged to the 33-year-old Spaniard, who didn't make a bogey during the final 13 holes. He finished his 1-under 71 with a 4-foot putt and pumped his fist.
He won by two strokes over Davis Love III with a 280, the highest winning score at the Masters in 10 years.
The cheers belonged to Norman. As usual, so did the groans.
This wasn't nearly as shocking as his collapse in 1996, when Norman squandered a six-stroke lead to Nick Faldo in the final round. Norman simply didn't make the shots that Augusta requires of its champions on the final holes.
Norman three-putted from 40 feet off the fringe for a bogey on the 14th, then effectively ended his chances on the par-515th, when his sand wedge from 98 yards away missed its target by 40 feet and he took another bogey.
Olazabal closed it out in fashion with a 3-foot birdie putt on the 16th, then two more pars in which his brilliance with the short game was on display.
The limp gone, he marched up to the 18th green to a gallery that finally gave him his due.
"I reached a point that I really had serious doubts about not just playing golf but the quality of my life," Olazabal said. "To be here at this moment, it's very emotional."
Norman, who missed most of last year because of shoulder surgery, had to take yet another walk up the final fairway, waiting for someone else to be crowned once again.
"I said to myself, "It could have just as easily been me," "Norman said.
Olazabal became the 11th European winner of the Masters in the last 20 years and now has as many green jackets as his mentor, Seve Ballesteros.
Norman, playing in the final group at a major championship for the eighth time, finished with a 73 and finished third at 283. Bob Estes and Steve Pate were another stroke back.
The Masters
David Duval had the best round of the day, a 2-under 70, and was in a large group at 285 that included Nick Price, Phil Mickelson and Lee Westwood.
Not even Olazabal could have imagined this moment three years ago, when foot problems that later were traced to his back left him confined to his couch in Spain, having to watch the '96 Masters on television.
One of the many notes he received during his 18 months away from the game was from Norman. They became close friends when Olayazabal returned the favor last year as Norman was recovering from shoulder surgery.
On Sunday, Olazabal had almost as much to do with Norman's fate as the Shark himself.
They were tied at 5 under going to the 10th tee, and then produced drama as compelling as 1975, when Jack Nicklaus held off Johnny Miller and Tom Weiskopf.
"It was a successful week, and a sad week, all rolled up in one," Norman said. "It's not a heartbreak. Don't make a mountain out of a molehill on this one."
Hornet arena committee head criticized for talks with Jordan
The Associated Press
CHARLOTTE, N.C. — He flew to New York, smoked Cuban cigars with Michael Jordan and told him that buying into the Charlotte Hornets would be good for the team, good for the city and good for the prospects of a new arena.
Then John Fennebresque, the head of the New Arena Committee, flew home to criticism from people who wondered why he tried to sell Jordan on Charlotte.
"I told Jordan that I was there for the city," Fennebresque said. "That's why I was there. I wanted to keep the Hornets in Charlotte. We needed a new arena to be uptown and Michael Jordan's involvement as a 50 percent owner could make the job a whole lot easier."
Others think he should have stayed at home March 19.
"It was stupid, wrong, and ridiculous," said Al Rousso, at- large City Council member.
THOMAS JACKSON
Jordan: Could buy into Charlotte Hornets.
Rousso objects to spending public money to promote a private multimillionaire's enterprise. He is angry that Fennbresque, chairman of a council.
appointed committee, agreed to meet privately with Jordan.
Fennebresque's allies say politicians and the public should be grateful that he is channeling his energy and talent into the arena project. Fennebresque, they say, makes things happen.
"John is my lawyer," said Hugh McColl Jr., chairman and chief executive of Bank of America. "I could have chosen anyone. He gets things done."
Fennebresque said the meeting was merely advisory.
"I was not negotiating with Michael Jordan," he said.
Hornets owner George Shinn has said his talks with Jordan are continuing.
"I doubt a further meeting would be as confidential as this one was," he said. "Then I can tell all the people in politics that they can be jealous right from the start."
1999 NFL draft sports strong arms
Coaches eye quarterbacks for opening round of picks
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — So much for the "best available athletes," the players every coach says he'll draft regardless of position.
When the NFL draft begins Saturday, those players — Ricky Williams, Champ Bailey, Chris Claiborne, Torry Holt and Jevon Kearse — will wait while Tim Couch, Akill Smith, Donovan McNabb and Daunte Culpepper are chosen.
That's because Couch and his co-stars are quarterbacks, and this is the best draft for quarterbacks since 1983, when six went in the first round. Two of those six, John Elway and Dan Marino, are sure Hall of Famers, and a third, Jim Kelly, has a good shot.
On the other hand...
"You're not going to look five years from now and say, 'Boy, all these guys are great.' Down the road it might be just two of them," said Indianapolis Colts coach Jim Mora.
Of the three first-round quarterbacks in '83, Ken O'Brien and Tony Eason, had ordinary careers, and
History says Mora's right.
Todd Blackledge, the second quarterback taken (after Elway), was a bust.
So although Williams, who set an NCAA rushing record at Texas and won the Heisman Trophy, is an obvious No. 1, he'll probably have to wait a few minutes at the draft, just as friend and new Hall of Famer Eric Dickerson did when he was taken No. 2 behind Elway in '83.
NFL
This year's draft also could be a bookhistoric.
society has shown. The probable first-round quarterbacks are Couch of Kentucky, Smith of Oregon, McNabb of Syracuse, Culpepper of Central Florida and Cade McNown of UCLA. Smith, Culpepper and McNabb are black, as is another possible first-rounder, Shaun King of Tulane.
three black quarterbacks have been taken in the first round — Doug Williams in 1978, Andre Ware in 1990 and Steve McNair in 1995. Warren Moon, third behind Marino and Elway in career yards passing, went undrafted in 1978 and had to go to Canada to prove himself.
For whatever reason, only
While times have changed, so have styles. Of the top group, only Couch is the prototypical dropback passer NFL scouts have liked for so long.

Royals beat White Sox for sweep
The Associated Press
CHICAGO — Jeff King, Mike Sweeney and Joe Randa hit solo home runs to back Kevin Appier and lead the Kansas City Royals in a win against Chicago 3-1 yesterday for their first sweep at the White Sox in six years.
Appier (1-1) gave up four hits in six-plus innings, allowing a home run to Frank Thomas. Appier, who lost to Boston 5-3 in the season opener, struck out four and walked two, leaving after Chris Singleton's leadoff single in the seventh.
Jeff Montgomery pitched the ninth for his first save, completing a five-hitter and giving the Royals a three-game winning streak. Kansas

City had not swept a series at Chicago since May 25-27, 1993.
James Baldwin (1-1) gave up three
runs, eight hits and three walks in 6-2 3 innings and struck out three.
Randa hit his second homer of the season in the first, but Thomas tied the game when he led off the fourth with his second home run. Thomas, who hit below .300 last year for the first time in his career, is 12-for-19 (.632) this season.
King and Sweeney hit consecutive homers with two outs in the sixth. It was King's first and Sweeney's second.
Clemens helps Yankees win fourth straight
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Roger Clemens didn't take long to make New York Yankees fans forget David Wells.
The Rocket, whose trade to New York was criticized by many Yankees fans, allowed three hits in 7/2 3 innings and struck out eight to win his first game in pinstripe, 5 against the Detroit Tigers on Saturday.
Chili Davis and Scott Brosius homered for the second straight day, and Derek Jeter had a two-run triple in support of Clemens, who won his 16th
straight decision, one short of the American League record. The win was the fourth straight for the World Series champions following an opening loss at Oak-
Gross at Oak land.

February for Wells, Graeme

Clemens, who pitched 13 seasons for the rival Boston Red Sox before signing with Toronto after the 1996 season, won the crowd over quickly in his first appearance for New York in Yankee Stadium.
The crowd of 42,058, the largest second-day crowd since the remodeled Yankee Stadium opened in 1996, gave Clemens a standing ovation when he left with two outets in the eighth. Jeff Nelson finished with hitless relief
inicate a bench-clearing situation when he hit Brosius in the back. After the game, the Yankees complained that Clemens got away with more than other pitchers could.
Clemens got a no-decision in his last start at Yankee Stadium for Toronto, helping
Bobby Higginson was the only Tiger to get to Clemens, going 2-for-2 with two hard doubles to right and a walk.
On Saturday, there were no such complaints.
The Yankees got on the board against Brian Moehler (1-1) in the second inning on Davis' opposite-field home. It was his third home run of the year, equaling last season's total.
Cardinals lose to Reds despite McGwire homer
ST. LOUIS — Just like on opening day, a Mark McGwire home run did not do much for the St. Louis Cardinals.
The Associated Press
The 70-home run hitter connected in the first inning for his first home run in 15 atbats, but Jason Bere did not encounter many more problems and led the Cincinnati Reds to a 4-2 victory yesterday.
Barry Larkin homered for Cincinnati, which has 12 home runs in six games, and Hal Morris and Greg Vaughn had key hits in a three-rush sixth innning.
Bere (1-0) allowed two runs and eight hits in 6 1/3 innings, and Danny Graves finished with a two-hit relief for his first
save, ending the game by retiring McGwire on a foul out with one on base in the ninth.

the go-ahead run in the eighth; twice the games were tied and twice the Reds led.
McGwire, who homered only once against the Reds last year, got his second of the season when he hit a first-pitch fastball from Bere over the left-field wall with two outs and none in the first. He'd been
3-for-14 with four walks, two strikeouts and one RBI since connecting off Milwaukee's David Weathers in a 10-8 loss Monday night.
Fernando Tatis was 0-for-4 and is 0-for-10 with six strikeouts since hitting his third homer on Thursday. He took a called third strike from Danny Graves with the bases loaded and two out in the seventh.
Bere singled off Donovan Osborne (0-1) leading off the sixth inning for his third hit in four at-bats this season. Bere scored on Morris' double, and Mike Cameron also scored from first when left field Joe McEwing misplayed the ball in the corner for an error. Vaughn followed with an RBI single for a 4-2 lead.
Pirates defeat Chicago 9-6, take weekend series
PITTSBURGH — Brant Brown gave the Chicago Cubs another bad memory. For at least one at-bat, Sammy Sosa also had them remembering 1998.
The Associated Press
Brown, who dropped the fly ball that cost the Cubs a key September game last season, had three extra base-hits and drove in three runs as the Pittsburgh Pirates swept Chicago by winning 9-6 yesterday.
Sosa hit his first homer of the season for the Cubs, a 441-foot solo shot off Mike Williams in the ninth. It was the first hit of the three-game series for Sosa, who is batting only .095 (2-for-21).
"Was it a relief? I have to say yes," said Sosa, who hit 66 homers last season and led the majors with 12 this spring. "In spring training, everything was there, the season started, and they've been pitching me a little bit different."
CUBS
"I got the first one out of the way, let's play ball now."
Sosa also started slowly last season, homering only once in 10 games before hitting 65 in the Cubs' final 153 games.
The Pirates are off to a fast 4-2 start, mainly because of the contributions of new additions such as Brown; Brian Giles, who homered Sunday, and Ed Sprague, who beat the Cubs with a grand slam Saturday.
Brown had a two-run double in a four-run Pirates first inning off Steve Trachsel (0-2), an RBI triple following Kevin Young's double in the third and a double in the seventh.
Brown was traded for pitcher Jon Lieber during the offseason.
"I tried not to put too much emphasis on these games," said Brown, who struck out in all three at-bats Friday in his first game against his old team.
"The first night I was jittery and anxious," he said. "I just had to go out and play. That's the nature of the business
now, some players play against two or three teams they used to play for."
Brown insists he has no animosity toward the Cubs.
"They gave me a chance to come here and play every day," said Brown, who is batting. 333. "When I was talking to
some of the guys Friday, they congratulated me on getting the chance to play here. I still like the guys over there they were like my family — but I
PIRATES
have to go about my business over here."
Pirates starter Jason Schmidt (2-0), limited to three spring starts by a groin injury, gave up two runs on six hits over six innings but was lifted after 108 pitches. He has yielded just three runs while winning his first two starts.
Sosa was 0-for-2 with two strikeouts and a walk against Schmidt.
"It's power pitcher against power hitter," Schmidt said. "It's a matchup that every power pitcher likes. It's power against power."
Chris Peters followed by giving up Benito Santiago's two-run homer in the eighth, ending a streak of 11 consecutive scoreless innings by Pirates relievers.
Glenallen Hill, a last-minute lineup replacement for Henry Rodriguez, had a career-high five hits for the Cubs, including a solo homer in the ninth. Rodriguez has a pulled rib cage muscle and probably will sit out the Cubs' home opener today.
Young and Al Martin also singled in runs as the Pirates took a 4-0 lead in the first. Giles added a two-run homer
— only his second off a left-hander in the majors — and Freddy Garcia had an RBI double in a three-run seventh against reliever Dan Serafini.
The Cubs finished 2-4 on their first road trip of the season and went winless in a three-game series in Pittsburgh for the first time since 1990.

Utah wins against Houston
Ostertag, Stockton lead Jazz to eighth straight home win
The Associated Press
SALT LAKE CITY — Greg Ostertag had 11 points, 15 rebounds and five blocked shots as the Utah Jazz beat the Houston Rockets for the eighth straight time, 85-76. Sunday.
John Stockton scored six straight points in the closing minutes and Bryon Russell added 19 points as Utah won its sixth straight game and fourth in six days. The Rockets have not won a road game in April and are only 3-11 against teams with winning records this season.
Hakeem Olajuwon, who had 32 points in the teams' previous meeting 10 days ago, hit a jumper with 4:27 to play that pulled the Rockets within 71-66.
Olajuwon finished with 23 points but was limited in the post by a strong defensive game from Ostertag.
After Olajuwon's jumper, Stockton had six points and an assist in the next 2:23, keying a 10-3 Utah run that put the game away. The Jazz, who are 16-1 in the Delta Center this season, have won eight straight home games and 28 of their last 29.
All five Jazz starters finished scoring in double figures, though Utah shot only 36 per
cent for the game. Karl Malone, after averaging 33 points in his previous three games, was 6-for-16 from the field and scored 16 points.
With Brent Price out after knee surgery and Matt Maloney sick with the flu, rooklies Bryce Drew, Cuttino Mobley and Michael Dickerson played most of Houston's minutes at guard. The rookies were a combined 6-for-20 from the field.
Houston had only five field goals in the first quarter as the Jazz took a 24-12 lead, but Utah scored only five points in the first 9:23 of the second quarter. A 10-2 rally put Utah up 39-28 at the half.
The Jazz will finish a stretch of four home games in five days when they meet Vancouver Monday night.
Wizards defeat 76ers 105-98
Victory is first in NBA career for Washington head coach
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — The first three quarters belonged to Allen Iverson. The fourth was the property of Rod Strickland.
And the victory goes to Jim Brovelli, his first as an NBA head coach, after the Washington Wizards broke a fivegame losing streak and rallied from a 13-point third-quarter deficit Sunday, beating the Philadelphia 76ers, 105-98.
Brovelli had been 0-3 after being named interim coach following Bernie Bickerstaff's dismissal last week. "They continued to fight and scrap and it paid off." Brovelli said.
Strickland led the way, scoring 10 of his 19 points in the final period and helping to hold Iverson without a point in the fourth until the game's final minute. Rookie Randell Jackson added 11 points in 16 minutes, all in the second half, and Mitch Richmond scored 24.
Iverson had 29 points after three quarters as the 76ers led by 11, but the NBA's leading scorer looked like a rookie again as he missed his next four shots and committed three fourth-quarter turnovers. The Wizards

outscored the 76ers 34-16 during the final 12 minutes
"He got out to a good start," Richmond said. "It was great that we kind of smothered him at the end."
Iverson finished with 32 points,10 rebounds and five assists as the 76ers had their three-game winning streak snapped.
Iverson's flashy layup turned into a 3-point play and capped 9-0 run that gave the 76ers the lead at 29-20. He later stole the ball from Strickland while Strickland was in midair attempting a jump shot and made an alley-oop pass to Larry Hughes that ended the half with an exclamation point.
we nad the game. We gave it to them," Iverson said. "I was getting good shots. I was just missing. And I took some bad shots with a hand in my face when I could have got better looks at the basket."
76ers
But Iverson started taking jumpers in the fourth, and he missed badly. He had a layup rejected by Jackson after the lead was cut to two, then had the ball batted away by Strickland about a minute later. Strickland then backed in on Iverson on the baseline for a short basket that tied the score at 87-87.
With 3:26 to go, Strickland's 3-point play after a two-handed scoop layup put the Wizards ahead for good at 92-91. Strickland's 3-point shot with 2:13 to play made it 97-91.

Stewart assistants won't return
The Associated Press
COLUMBIA, Mo. — Longtime Norm Stewart assistants Kim Anderson and Rich Daly will not have jobs with new coach Quin Snyder at Missouri.
Anderson, who had applied for the head coaching job after Stewart resigned April 1, and Daly each said the news was expected.
"Ithink (athletic director) Mike Alden did what he thought was best," Anderson said. "In no way could I criticize what he did, nor is there any reason to be bitter."
Anderson had been at Missouri for
15 years as a player and a coach. Daly had been Stewart's chief recruiter for 16 years.
M
"I think they hired the right
Snyder, the top assistant to Mike Krzyzewski at Duke, was named to succeed Stewart on Wednesday.
guy" Daly said. "I really do. I think they did a good job. I do know the players are very, very happy with the guy they hired. They can relate."
Stewart stepped down after 32 years as coach, but will continue as a special assistant to Missouri Chancellor Richard Wallace.
Anderson said he knew that Stewart would resign when the coach asked him to pick him up at the airport March 30.
Anderson and Daly each said they had no immediate plans.
"I knew then what was going on," Anderson said. "I think his mind was pretty much made up. He leaving affected me more emotionally probably than我 not getting the job. To spend that much time with a girl, you get to know him and you get pretty close to him."
Detroit Tigers begin stadium's last season
The Associated Press
DETROIT — There once was an old hay market at the corner of Michigan and Trumbull.
That old hay market gave way to Bennett Park, which opened in 1896. That gave way to Navin Field, which opened in 1912 and later became Briggs Stadium and later Tiger Stadium.
When the Tigers play the Minnesota Twins today, it will mark the last home opener in Tiger Stadium. The team will move a few blocks away to Comerica Park to start the 2002 season.
"Oh, it's going to be awful hard on me, because I've spent every year of my adult life at Briggs Stadium and Tiger Stadium." Hall of Famer A Kaline said.
Ernie Harwell, an announcer who has been broadcasting from the corner since 1960, has been in the radio booth for two World Series championships at the ballpark.
Sparky Anderson came in 1979 and managed the Tigers for the next 16 seasons. With Anderson, the Tigers won two division titles and a World Series championship
The current manager, Larry Parrish, remembers the
night when Sparky — who never once played the outfield — robbed him of a home run. It happened while Parrish, then playing for Texas, was facing Jack Morris.
"Jack threw me a fastball away and I hit it pretty good to right field," Parrish said. "It went out of the ball-park. I ran around the bases."
Then Sparky stepped out of the dugout, arguing the ball went foul before leaving the stadium.
"He actually put the home plate umpire to overrule the first base umpire, and call it a foul ball," Parrish said. "I had to go back up there and hit."
He said that he u caught it, and he was sitting two rows inside the foul pole, in fair territory," Parrish said. "So, Sparky got a home run taken away from me."
The Tigers have played in the World Series nine times, winning four. Detroit also has held three All-Star games, including the one in 1971 in which Reggie Jackson homered into the light tower on the right-field roof.
"There is so much history in that place," Anderson said. "It went all the way back to basically when Cobb played ... Gehrig and Ruth, all of them."
Lakers overlook Rodman's erratic behavior
The Associated Press
INGLEWOOD, Calif. — Dennis Rodman has certainly lived up to his reputation as weird and distracting 20 games into his Los Angeles Lakers career.
It's enough to make Jerry West soirm.
The team wanted his rebounding and defense. But he's done plenty to disrupt, too — arriving late, not showing up at all, taking a leave of absence, refusing to go into games, getting ejected and ripping his teammates for their lack of effort.
During their walk on the wild side, the players are still making excuses for the pierced, tattooed and dyed wonder known as the Worm.
In one of city's worst-kept secrets, the team's executive vice president — and classiest Laker of all — did not want the seven-time NBA rebounding champion, but freewheeling owner Jerry Buss insisted.
"He hasn't been negative that much," said Shaquille O'Neal, who openly campaigned to get Rodman. "The stuff that he does or did, we all knew it was coming and we all
were prepared for it."
Well, maybe not for all of Rodman's antics. He put the Lakers on hold for three weeks before signing, angering part-owner Magic
Johnson, who spoke for many when he said,
"He's driving me crazy."
Rodman disappeared two weeks after joining the Lakers, missing four games while he contemplated his basketball future and gambled in Las Vegas.
---
Rodman: Lakers are 17-4 with him in lineup.
He got paid during the absence,
but said he was fined $100 a day for
delaying his return.
What have the Lakers gotten in return? A 17-4 record with him in the lineup and 11.6 rebounds in 29 minutes a game. Without Rodman, they are 8-9 and the rebounding falls to O'Neal.
"I play basketball and I understand the game," said Rodman.
That is why his teammates excuse him.
"A lot of guys in the league and coaches say things about him, but they'd all kill to have a guy as dedicated as Dennis," forward J.R. Reid said. "He brings a lot to our team."
Certainly not camaraderie.
Rodman dresses — itself a fascinating adventure — separately from his teammates and doesn't talk to them much. When he's not in the game, he's rarely on the bench. Instead, he rides an exercise bike to stay loose.
The fans don't seem to mind. "Rodman Rules" and "Dennis the Menace" were signs held up at the Forum recently. His name is welcomed as loudly as that of O'Neal or Kobe Brant during introductions.
Twice, Rodman has refused coach Kurt Rambis' requests to enter games, saying he had been out too long and his muscles were tight. He wasn't punished.
Rodman's fourth-quarter ejection after a second technical foul against Golden State April 3 was cheered, even though the Lakers trailed by four at the time and lost by five.

Candidates field student questions
By Nadia Mustafa
mnsatfa@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
Sentiments were divided among about 150 students who showed up at Wescoe Beach during the lunch hour yesterday to listen to Student Senate candidates answer questions about campus issues.
At the informal debate, student body presidential and vice-presidential candidates took turns fielding students' questions about a new campus recreation center, student apathy, corporate contracts, parking problems, public transportation, improving education, Pride Week and Senate's effectiveness.
Many students in the audience said the candidates' responses sometimes seemed to be prepared campaign statements that they molded into answers to fit various questions. For many students, the event only cemented their existing loyalties to either coalition.
Ale Cornelius, St. Louis freshman, said that she was impressed by the responses given by Korb Maxwell, YOU candidate for student body president, and his running mate, Dede Selbel.
"I don't think Delta
"I don't think"
Force was as prepared or as articulate," she said.
"YOU impressed me with their control.
I'm going to vote for YOU."
Chris Eckert, Topeka sophomore, said that although the YOU candidates' responses were more polished, he was sketical about
some of their claims. He said he would vote for Seth Hoffman, Delta Force candidate for student body president, and his running mate, Mary Liu.

"I was confused by their waffling between sweeping out the old and sweeping in the new and being the most experienced," he said. "Even though they're not the smoother speakers, Delta Force addressed the issues well. Hoffman wasn't afraid to be blunt."
Out of 10 student questions posed at the debate, one student asked the candidates that, if elected, what would be the one instantaneous "dream" change they would make at the University?
Hoffman said that he would increase voter turnout in Senate elections to 100 percent. Maxwell agreed with Hoffman, but said that student representation and input in the chancellor's office, provost's office and on University boards and committees were also necessary.
Another student challenged the candidates to explain how they would represent a student body of whom allegedly 75

Brownback's talk sparks differing campus opinions
Senator tied abortion to Social Security woes in El Dorado speech
By Kristi Reimer
kreimer@kanson.com
Kansan staff writer
Comments from Sen. Sam Brownback linking abortion to Social Security's woes surprised and angered some people at the University of Kansas, while others thought he had a valid point.
Brownback, R-Kan., told an audience Saturday at Butler County, Community College in El Dorado that Social Security was in trouble partly because abortion was depleting the work force. He also joked that Kansans should start having more children to bolster the labor market.
Lorraine Bayard De Volo, assistant professor of political science, said she thought Brownback was playing off citizens' fears about Social Security to promote his views on abortion.
"It's not clear whether that's out of his own ignorance or whether he's hoping Kansans are ignorant enough to buy his warped logic," Bayard De Volo said.
She said that Social Security's troubles began long before the Supreme Court's decision in Roe vs. Wade made abortion legal in 1973 and that a high birth rate would not solve them.
death rates from illegal abortions, an increase in demand for Welfare services and a global pollution crisis, she said.
In addition, criminalizing abortion would cause a rise in

than contributing
Allan Cigler, professor of political science, said he wasn't sure that Brownback was being completely serious in his speech.

relationship between abortion and Social Security a strange linkage to make, one I suspect people will ridicule. "Cigler said. "I can't believe anybody seriously would frame Social Security problems that way. That's a big stretch."
Cigler said increasing the population wouldn't solve Social Security's problems because more people didn't necessarily mean more jobs.
mean here. But he said that Brownback's remarks might have been tongue-in-cheek and that people needed to be careful in drawing broad conclusions.
Bayard De Volo said that even
if Brownback was joking, his comments should not be ignored.
"The fact that he's blaming women who have had abortions for the awful Social Security problems still has ramifications," she said. "It's a politically irresponsible joke."
Not everyone at KU thought Brownback's comments were off base. Joseph Reitz, professor of business, said he made the same point linking the Social Security crisis to abortion in a talk last year. He said that since the Roe vs. Wade decision was handed down, 35 million abortions had been performed.
"There are a lot more old people and fewer people in the labor force," Reitz said. "You can pretty well see what's happening with Social Security."
He said he was surprised that more people hadn't made the connection.
"It's not a matter of opinion or belief but of stark economic fact." Reitz said.
Scott Wallisch, Hazelwood, Mo, junior and co-leader of KU Students for Life, also said that Brownback's ideas had merit. By Wallisch's calculations, about 5 million people would be in the work force by now if their mothers hadn't opted for abortion.
"To say that's the only reason Social Security is in trouble — that's wrong," Wallisch said. "But he does have a very interesting point."
Brownback could not be reached for comment.

Senate targeting student parking woes with Park and Ride
By Heather Woodward
hwoodward@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Student Senate has never made a secret of the fact that parking is an issue it wants to address.
Last fall, 300 parking permits were issued for spaces at the Lied Center where students could park and ride a bus to campus. Next fall, 500 permits will be available.
In recent years, what Student Senate has done to alleviate parking problems can be summed up in two words: Park and Ride—a service of KU on Wheels.
"Park and Ride is something that Senate had tossed around for three years," said Nicole Skalla, senate transportation coordinator. "We decided to do it this year as kind of a pilot to see if it would work, and it's proved to be very successful. Handling an extra 300 people is really a pretty big load for us, so it's been easier to work in steps and increment."
Senate appoints three students to the parking board, which is made up of students, faculty and parking administrators who act as an advisory committee for the parking department.
Since 1997, the parking department has added 1,730 new student parking spaces. Once a new 800-space parking garage is built next to the Kansas Union, an additional 150 spaces also will be available for students. Metered parking will take up 500 spaces, and the remaining 300 will be divided equally between students and faculty. Senate lobbed the parking department for the even split.
Student parking concerns have been with over-flow at Gertrude Sellards Pearson and Goble Hill and th

scholarship halls. Other concerns include rising permit prices, which are not expected to increase next year.
The parking department oversells the number of spaces that those residence hall lots can handle, leaving permit holders fighting for a place to park.

Police say men hurt four when leaving party
Two belligerent party-goers were asked to leave a house in the 800 block of Mississippi Street at 2 a.m. Sunday, and before leaving the party they injured four KU students, said Sgt. Rich Nickell of the Lawrence Police Department.
Police said the men refused to leave the party, to which they had not been invited.
"The suspects became disorderly and tried to fight the crowd," Nickell said.
One of the men, after he was asked to leave, punched a man who lived in the house, cutting him on the eyebrow. Nickell said. The men also threw bottles at the crowd, he said, cutting one student on the hand and another on the head. One of the men punched a fourth student in the jaw and broke the student's tooth. Nickell said.
Medical personnel examined the four students, but none were taken to the hospital. Police were unable to locate the two men, who witnesses drove away in a late-model conversion van.
Man yells profanities at restaurant customers
Police received reports Sunday from three local restaurants that a man was harassing customers and yelling profanities, said Sgt. Rich Nickell of the Lawrence Police Department.
This first call came from Einstein Brothers Bagels, 1026 Massachusetts St., around 9:15 a.m. Police arrived and arrested a 40-year-old Lawrence man. The man was released on $50 bond at 11:14 a.m., Nickell said.
Police received another call at 4:20 p.m. from Free State Brewing Company, 636 Massachusetts St., that an intoxicated man was yelling profanities at customers.
The man was gone by the time police arrived, but he was located after police received a similar call at 8:50 p.m. from Pat's Blue Rib N' Barbeque, 1618 W. 23rd St., Nickell said. He was the same man arrested at Einstein Bothers Raels.
The man was arrested at Pat's at 9:15 p.m. His bond was set was set at $200.
Student refuses to leave room during fire alarm
A KU police officer entered a residence in McColm Hall after a staff member reported that a student inside was refusing to leave during a fire alarm at 1:05 a.m. Friday, said Lt. Schuyler Bailey of the KU Public Safety Office
The officer reported that the room smelled of alcohol and marijuana. The officer found empty beer cans and a water pipe on a table in the room, Bailey said.
As the student was getting out of the bed where he had been asleep, the officer noticed that he had been lying on a one-hitter box, Bailey said. A one-hitter is a small pipe that holds enough of a substance to allow the smoker to take one puff before reloading it.
Because the cans were empty and no marijuna was found in the room, the student was not issued a citation, Bailey said.
The fire alarm that led to the evacuation was a false alarm.

Kansas Legislature hopes to replace Capitol statues
WASHINGTON — Kansas gave the nation Dwight David Eisenhower and Amelia Earhart, two of the 20th century's most celebrated figures.
But it will take an act of Congress to get them — actually, their likenesses
NATION
— into the U.S. Capitol because only Congress can evict two now-obscure Kansans blocking their way.
No state has gotten permission to replace a statue in the 135-year-old National Statuary Hall Collection. The Kansas Legislature, hoping to become the first, sent Congress a resolution last month urging that the statues of former U.S. Sen. John James Ingalls and former Gov. George Washington Glick be removed to make room for Earhart and Eisenhower.
The path to the stately Statuary Hall is strewn with obstacles.
tory of the collection," said Barbara Wolanin, the curator in the Capitol architect's office. "The law says each state can give two statues. There just is no provision, no precedent at this point. There would have to be a legally valid system worked out."
First, Congress will have to decide whether exchanges are allowed.
"We're blazing a trail here," said Rep. Jim Rivan.
The Republican's district includes aviator Earhart's hometown of Atchison.
This has never happened in the his
Ingalls, a Republican senator from 1873 to 1891, also was a newspaper editor who championed anti-slavery forces and worked to bring Kansas into the union as a free state. Glick was elected the state's first Democratic governor, serving from 1883 to 1885.
Democrats, GOP agree to aid land conservation
WASHINGTON—A billion-dollar land rush is under way in Congress, with both political parties saying they want to preserve open spaces, protect wildlife and set aside environmentally sensitive places.
But the details are very much in dispute. Environmentalists and their Democratic allies want the bulk of funds to go for new park land, suburban green spaces and wildlife protection. Most Republicans are backing a proposal to funden money into coastal states with offshore oil drilling.
Despite the differences, never before have lawmakers, liberal Democrats and conservative Republicans alike, been as gungo-hu to spend money for land conservation — as much as $2.6 billion a year under one proposal.
There could emerge a classic congressional bargain for unprecedented and permanent annual funding for land conservation programs, Interior Secretary Bruce Babbitt said in an interview. "There's no question the money is available."
After decades of Congress giving little attention to land conservation programs, the change of heart has left environmentalists stunned.
The proposals are coming from conservatives such as Rep. Don Young, R-Alaska, a property rights advocate and frequent critic of environmentalists, to liberal Democrats such as Rep. George Miller and Sen. Barbara Boxer, both Californians with strong links to environmentalists.

percent were apathetic. Hoffman replied that Delta Force would make sure students knew that his coalition had been working for students for more than two years.
Seibel disagreed that the problem was student apathy. Instead, she said, Senate needed to do more to reach out to students. She said that the YOU coalition had chosen campaign issues about which students would be excited.
In response to a question about improving education and the minds of KU students, candidates from both coalitions spoke about the importance of increasing faculty salaries to retain and recruit high-quality professors.

Tickets
Organizers say lecture an academic event'
We Buy, Sell, Trade & Consign USED & New Sports Equipment
About 1,500 University of Kansas students will be able to attend this weekend's Archbishop Desmond Tutu lecture for free, thanks to tickets given away by Student Union Activities.
Teachers who felt that the Tutu lecture was pertinent to their classes could ask for up to 50 free tickets. Tutu's lecture is titled "Bridging the Chasm Between Black and White." The lecture will be at 7 p.m. April 18 at Allen Fieldhouse.
Cody Simms, Rose Hill senior and SUA forums coordinator, said that most lectures were free for students and that SUA wanted to give some students the opportunity to get into this lecture for free, too.
"We wanted to make it an academic event," he said.
Simms said that they had sent out about 1,471 free tickets, nearly half of the estimated 3,000 tickets distributed so far.
He said he sent an e-mail to a listserv for department chairs about two weeks before spring break and that it had disseminated from there.
The deadline for ticket requests was the Friday before spring break.
Cameron Popp, Hutchinson
tunior and head of security for the
lecture, said that another: way to get in for free would be to volunteer for security.
Popp said he was looking for about 100 to 120 volunteers.
"Not everyone's going to be able to see the lecture — some people will have to work the door — but most people should be able to catch the lecture," he said.
Simms said that the Tutu lecture was probably the biggest event SUA had taken on, and that most of the remaining ticket sales would probably depend on how nonstudents reacted to advertisements.
About 9,000 tickets, which are $5 for students and $15 for non-students ahead of time and $20 at the door, remain for the lecture, and Simms said he expected sales to pick up as the week continues.
Greg Smith, Olathe junior, said he was working security at the lecture because he had done it for several previous events and because it offered him the chance to meet Tutu, who is from South Africa and winner of the 1984 Nobel Peace Prize.
"Hopefully, we can sell what we projected, which is about 5,500," Simms said.
Even if it distributes 5,500 tickets,
SUA still will end up spending
$10,000 on the event. Student Senate contributed $9,000.
"I can't imagine doing more promotion on campus than we've done," Simms said. "Your guess is as good as mine as to how the K.C. area will react."

Some senators said that working with the parking department was sometimes like talking to a brick wall.
"The impression I have is that Student Senate has valuable input for the parking department." Hemenway said. "I just don't have the knowledge about every parking lot on campus.

"We're willing to consider almost anything," Hultine said. "One way might be, if it didn't affect enrollment, to say freshmen can't have their cars here. But it gets difficult to figure out who needs a parking permit more. We could set up some kind of a lottery."

Matt Dunbar, holdover senator, who is on the Transportation Board and the Integrated Transportation Task Force, said that he thought the KU on Wheels program, which now carries 13,000 riders each day and more than 2 million each year, should work with the city to create a citywide public transportation system.

Group campaigns against rec center
By Nadia Mustafa
nmustafa@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Opposition to the proposal for a new $16 million campus recreation center is not restricted to politics within Student Senate.
An unofficial group of about 10 students called Students Against the Recreation Center, some members of which remain anonymous, is waging a campaign using funds from their own pockets to persuade students to vote against the recreation center referendum during Senate elections tomorrow and Thursday.
Brian Bartelt, Waukee, Iowa, freshman, revived SARC earlier this semester. The group originally was founded in 1996 by three students who opposed a previous proposal for a new campus recreation center that would have increased student fees by $90 per semester. That year, 70 percent of student voters rejected the proposal.
During the past two weeks, SARC has been posting flyers and brochures around campus that boast headlines such as, "Is it fair to have to pay $100 a year for something you won't ever use?" and "Why are we trying to 'keep up with the joneses'?"
"We think that the task force is hiding and manipulating data and not doing all the research they need to be doing," Bartelt said. "It's
great that they're trying to accomplish something, but they're not doing it the right way and it makes me angry."
On its Web site (www.angelfire.com/ks/sarc), SARC posted a list of the top 10 things it thought the recreation task force didn't want students know. The list reported that the new center would be smaller than Robinson Center and would not solve overcrowding problems because Robinson probably would not be available for student recreational use when the new center opened.
Provost David Shulenburger confirmed last week that the University of Kansas would not decrease existing recreation facilities.
In addition, Yoder said that the new center would be open 18 hours a day and that alleged decreased accessibility to Robinson probably would be inevitable because of the expansion of academic activity courses.
SARC claimed that the new center would include junior high size basketball courts and unnecessary offices for recreation services. Yoder said that the courts would be full size and that offices were a necessary accompaniment to a new center.
Also, SARC said that building a new center south of Watkins Memorial Health Center would be stealing potential space for a new academic building, Yoder
SARC cited the fact that only freshmen would still be students at the University when the new recreation center opened in Summer 2002.
replied that the chancellor and University architect approved the proposed location and said that an academic building could not be built there because it was not within 10 minutes of walking distance from other campus buildings.
"They're using false and misleading statements in order to convince the student body that there is not a problem and this proposal is an inadequate solution," he said. "They're doing a grave disservice to the student body because now students will be going to the polls without being able to vote on the issue fairly."
SARC referred to task force survey data that revealed 53 percent of students surveyed were satisfied with the convenience of hours at Robinson, 78.4 percent were satisfied with the quality of services and activities and 72.4 percent were satisfied with the condition of buildings.
Yoder said that SARC was misleading students.
If the referendum passes, Bartelt said, the students will have spoken. He said that SARC probably would pursue discussion with the chancellor to dissuade him from approving the proposal.

Students aid students as deadline looms

If life's only certainties are death and taxes, at least one of them is quickly approaching KU students.

Thursday is the last day to file tax claims without late penalties, and KU students who have not yet figured their claims are still in luck.
Braxton Copley, staff attorney for KU Legal Services for Students, said that although his office was booked through the deadline, students had three options to avoid penalties.
He suggested that students pick up an extension request form and submit it on or before the April 15 deadline.
Copley said that the final option for students who had not yet prepared their taxes was to get a return, complete it to the best of their knowledge and pay any taxes that were required. After sending in their return, those students should make an appointment to review
"If an extension is filed before the date, a penalty for filing late can be avoided." he said.
Copley also suggested using other on-campus tax services. There are several other sites run by KU Volunteer Income Tax Assistance that will help students prepare their taxes before the deadline.
Maurer said that as the deadline has grown closer, the number of students applying for assistance with their taxes has also grown.
These sites are being run by business and law students that have completed a course in preparing federal income taxes, said Jack Mauer, site coordinator.
Copley said that if there were any corrections that needed to be made to the student's return, an amendment would be sent to correct the problems.
Maurer said that most students didn't have a difficult tax return, enabling the form preparation to take between 30 and 45 minutes.
their return with Legal Services.
Jon White, Lawrence graduate student, visited one of the sites yesterday because it was free and the location was accessible.
Organizers said that students have been taking advantage of the free services. Copley said that Legal Services had helped an average of 60 students a week with tax preparation.

KU professor discovers addition to Biblical Gospel
Resident Services, 1600 Haskell Ave.

Bv Nathan Willis
Special to the Kansan
Mirecki, associate professor of religious studies, is a navrologist
Not many people can say they've discovered an additional Christian gospel. Paul Mrecki can.
a person who studies ancient texts. He said his most famous discovery is a small portion of an additional retelling of Jesus Christ's time on Earth. It was originally written about 175 A.D.
Mirecki published the results of his work with the ancient text last month in a book, "The Gospel of the Savior." He discovered the text in 1991.
"The gospel was in a West Berlin museum with handwritten notes that talked about the unknown teachings of Jesus," Mirecki said. "That caught my attention."
Getting an unknown manuscript in a German museum published as an analysis of a new gospel required years of scientific rigor.
"It is meticulous work and involves the keeping of copious notes on many observations of tiny details," said Jason BeDuhn, a professor of religious studies at Northern Arizona University, who often collaborates on projects with Mireckl. "It is as scientific as any procedure in chemistry or physics."
Mirecki said that although many people consider religious studies and science to be at opposite ends of a spectrum, that is untrue. Papyrology is a particularly vivid example, he said.
Ancient documents usually come in many pieces, Mirecki said, and rigorous scientific procedures have to be used to clean them and
put them back together. The documents, which are about 1,500 years old, are very brittle.
"They're kind of like potato chips," he said.
Mirecki found 33 fragments, representing 25 percent of pages 97 to 114 of the gospel. He said he believed the rest had been destroyed, which was why determining who wrote the gospel was impossible.
Mirecki said he used small brushes on the scraps until all of them were clean. The cleaning process has to remain dry to protect the documents, he said.
After that, the scraps were put in a humidor, a machine that slowly restored moisture to the paper. After Mirecki removed each scrap from the machine, he laid them between sheets of blotter paper and placed small weights on top.
"It's like if you have a sound bite of a rap song, you know it's not from the 1950's."
Paul Mirecki
associate professor of religious studies
When the scraps had dried for about an hour, Mirecki began putting them together with acid-free tape. He said the process was similar to putting together a jigsaw puzzle.
Once taped, the scraps were put into a dry press and allowed to finish drying into flat sheets that are easy to work with. Mirecki said.
If the document was previously undiscovered, such as Mirecki's gospel, the composition of the
paper is analyzed and dated. Mirecki said some papyrologists used carbon-14 dating. He said he preferred to use other dating methods because carbon-14 dating required him to destroy part of the document.
The document can be dated by the writing materials and writing style used, as well as the style of language used. Writing style changed dramatically throughout time, Mirecki said.
"It's like if you have a sound bite of a rap song, you know it's not from the 1950s," he said.
Finally, Mirecki translated documents out of their ancient Coptic or Greek language and into English.
The lost gospel was written in Coptic, which is an ancient Egyptian language that uses the Greek alphabet instead of hieroglyphics,
he said.
Mirecki uses his experience studying texts as a tool in his classes — Understanding the Bible, Studies in Coptic Language, Directed Studies in Religion and Jewish History and Literature in the Greek and Roman Periods.
Tyler Gillett, Albuquerque, N.M., graduate student, said Mirecki's personal experience investigating ancient documents were vivid examples in the classes he teaches.
"He described to us how one restores a text," Gillett said. "He'll bring in personal examples."
Gillett said Mirecki's classes had caused him to consider papyrology as a career.
"A lot of texts are sitting in boxes and haven't been looked at," he said. "There's a wealth of information out there."

Critics question increase in children's test scores
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — A much-heralded gain in children's reading may have been overstated. Federal officials are trying to determine whether 1998 improvements on scores in some states occurred simply because those states excluded higher numbers of students with disabilities.
There's no evidence of wrongdoing, said Pascal D. Forgione, Jr., chief of the Education Department's statistical branch. Indeed, new federal rules led the states to exclude more students. The department is investigating whether the excluded students, if they had taken the test, would have performed poorly, thus negating much of the gain.
In 1998, for the first time in a decade, many states participated in the voluntary national test showed significant increases in the reading scores of fourth-grade students, the only grade level available for comparison.
The 1998 scores drew particular
attention because low-ranking states, many of which suffered political fallout over previous poor showings, also made gains. The achievements were celebrated last month by Vice President Al Gore.
Critics in some states say it's the exclusions, not better student performance, that led to the gains.
Since there are no scores for excluded students, no one can say for sure, said Kent Orlander of the Lexington, Ky.-based Family Foundation, which has questioned Kentucky's reform efforts. Kentucky pulled out 10 percent of students selected for its 1998 sample, compared with 4 percent in 1994.
Orlander said the increase was troubling.
"If you're taking out so many more students who are judged as less likely to achieve well on the test, how can you confidently assert that you are in fact improving?" he said.
Jim Parks, spokesman for Kentucky's Department of Education, said critics can't assume the
excused children would have dragged down scores
"Nobody knows what those students would have scored if they had taken the test," he said.
The test, called the National Assessment of Educational Progress, is administered by a nationwide group established by Congress. It is given about every two years to a nationwide sample of children in three grade levels in subjects such as math and reading. States are not required to participate in national testing.
in previous years, the national test was administered to special students without special help—if they spent at least half their time in a mainstream classroom.
The situation changed for the 1998 test. A federal law began requiring that special-needs students get help on any test comparing their results with others. The governing board of the National Assessment of Educational Progress responded by requiring that those students be excluded from the national test sample.
Study: nutrient may protect men
Tomatoes could stop prostate cancer
The Associated Press
PHILADELPHIA — A study has found the first direct evidence that the nutrient that makes tomatoes red may protect men against prostate cancer by shrinking tumors and slowing their spread.
To see whether tomatoes are truly the reason why, researchers from the Karmanos Cancer Institute in Detroit gave lycopene capsules to men who were about to undergo surgery to remove their cancerous prostate glands.
The nutrient, lycopene, has emerged as one of the trendiest of all nutritional supplements in recent years. Large population surveys have suggested that those who eat plenty of tomatoes — the primary natural source of lycopene — are less likely to get prostate cancer and some other malignancies.
The study involved 38 men who were randomly assigned to take
lycopene or nothing for 30 days before their prostate operations. Before surgery, the volunteers showed no obvious signs that their cancer had spread.
After surgery, the doctors found that cancer tissue was less likely to extend clear to the edges of the lycopene users' prostate glands. And pre-cancerous cells in their prostates were less abnormal-looking.
"This suggests that lycopene results in a decrease of the tumor size and makes the cancer less aggressive," said Dr. Omar Kucuk, who directed the study.
The findings were presented in Philadelphia on yesterday at a meeting of the American Association for Cancer Research.
Kucuk warned that his study is small, and cautioned against routine use of lycopene supplements without further evidence.
Lycopene pills are widely available. In the study, financed by the Karmanos institute, volunteers were given two daily 15-milligram capsules of LycO-Mate, a lycopene extract made by LycoRed Natural
Products ofIsrael.
Kucuk said this was the amount of lycopene found in about a pound of tomatoes. Since lycopene is not easily absorbed from raw tomatoes, it might take two or three pounds to actually raise blood levels as high as were seen in the study.
Prostate cancer is the most common malignancy among U.S. men. The American Cancer Society estimates that prostrate cancer will be diagnosed in 179,300 men this year, and 37,000 will die from it.
Among the study's findings:
Among the cancer had spread to the very edge of the prostate gland or beyond in seven of the 21 men on lycopene, compared with nine of the 12 in the comparison group.
Levels of PSA — prostate specific antigen, a measure of tumor activity — fell 20 percent between the start of treatment and surgery in the lycopene patients. They were unchanged in the comparison group.
"If this is real, I would expect to see a decrease in the relapse rate and increased survival in these patients" taking lycopene, Kuuked.

Yugoslavian parliament votes to join alliance with Russia, Belarus
9 killed on train in NATO bridge attack
The Associated Press
BELGRade, Yugoslavia — A new wave of NATO attacks yesterday targeted fuel depots and heavy industry, and an allied hit turned a Yugoslav passenger train into a heap of burning wreckage, killing at least nine people and injuring 16. NATO said the bridge the train was crossing was the intended target.
Even as the alliance expressed regret over loss of civilian life, NATO foreign ministers — meeting for the first time since the nearly three-week-long air campaign began — vowed to press ahead, saying the Kosovo crisis represented a fun
damental challenge to the values of democracy, human rights and the rule of law.
Yugoslavia's parliament, meanwhile, voted to join an alliance with Russia and Belarus — an apparent move to try to draw Russia into the conflict, although Russian leaders have said it would not get militarily involved.
Russia favors the idea of incorporating Yugoslavia into the alliance that already includes it and Belarus, but said membership wouldn't be instantaneous and any military aid wouldn't be automatically granted.
Yugoslavia denounced the attack on the passenger train. The alliance did not directly confirm the hit, but acknowledged it had struck a rail bridge considered an important military supply line, and said the train may have been on or near it at the time.
"Regrettably, we cannot exclude the possibility of casualties in this instance," said a statement by the Supreme Headquarters Allied Powers in Europe.
At the scene, a heavy smell of burned flesh hung in the air. Rescuers pulled charred bodies from the derailed cars, and body parts were scattered for 30 yards. Survivors told the Tanjug news agency they scrambled out shattered windows before the train was consumed in flames on the bridge, 180 miles south of Belgrade.
Journalists saw what appeared to be missile parts mixed with the wreckage. Nearby houses were lightly damaged, with windows broken.
Despite bad weather, NATO struck Serb targets, including a major fuel refinery the principal airport in Kosovo and the Balkans' biggest heavy-equipment factory.
The alliance says bombing will continue
until Yugoslav President Slobodan Milosevic withdraws his forces from Serbia's southern Kosovo province and accepts foreign troops to enforce the peace.
in the latest wave of NATO air strikes:
■ Flames leaped into the night sky over Pancevo, just across the Danube from Belgrade, as fire engulfed one of Yugslavia's biggest oil refineries early Monday.
The factory that makes Yugo cars — housed in a complex that also makes weapons — was hammered again early Monday after being badly damaged last week, Tanjug said. The manager of the Zastava complex in Kragujevac, 45 miles southwest of Belgrade, said damage totaled $1 billion.
Serbia's second-largest city, Novi Sad, where two major bridges were wrecked early on in the air campaign, was hit. Tanjug said a missile struck a residential area Sunday evening, but NATO said there were surface-to-air missile production and storage facilities in the area.
Awards announced for 1999 Pulitzer Prizes
Associated Press sweeps photography categories
The Associated Press
NEW VORK — The Associated Press, The New York Times and The Wall Street Journal each won two Pulitzers yesterday, and The Washington Post was awarded the 1999 prize for public service.
The AP won the two photography awards, the first time any news organization had swept the photography categories.
The prize for commentary went to Maureen Dowd of the Times for columns on President Clinton's affair with Monica Lewinsky. The Times' staff, notably Jeff Gerth, won for national reporting for a series that disclosed the sale of American technology to China despite national security risks.
"To paraphrase Monica Lewinsky's favorite poet, T. S.Eliot, April is the coolest month," Dowd said. "My reaction is I'm just so grateful to President Clinton that he never spoke the words, 'Young lady, pull down that jacket and get back to the typing pool.'"
The Wall Street Journal won for international reporting for coverage of the Russian financial crisis. The Journal's Angelo Henderson won the feature writing category for his portrait of a druggist driven to violence by his encounters with armed robbers.
JOURNALISM PULITZERS
The AP won the spot news photography award for a portfolio on the embassy bombings in Kenya and Tanzania. It won for feature photography for a collection of photographs of the events surrounding Clinton's affair with Lewinsky and his impeachment. The AP has won nine Pulitzers in the past nine years, including eight for photography.

Kindergarten teacher, Ellington honored for accomplishments
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Honoring both the little-known and the legendary, Pulitzer Prize voters yesterday gave the 1999 drama award to kindergarten teacher Margaret Edson for her play "Wit" and announced a special citation for Duke Ellington, who never won in his lifetime.
Edson, 37, was cleaning her classroom at Atlanta's Centennial Park Elementary School when she found out she had won the Pulitzer for her first play, an unanticipated look at a woman's fight with ovarian cancer.
"If this play speaks to people, it's because there's one thing I wanted to say," she said. "I wanted to say that knowledge is very good. But knowledge without love is a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal."
Michael Cunningham received the fiction prize for his novel The Hours and Melinda Wagner won the music prize for her composition Concerto for Flute, Strings and Percussion. Other winners included the acclaimed essayist John McPhee, who won in the general nonfiction category for Annals of the Former World, and former poet laureate Mark Strand, for his collection Blizzard of One.
know when these prizes are given out. I don't receive the paper every day and when I do I generally turn to the obituaries or the sports pages."
The history prize was given to Gotham: A History of New York City to 1898, by two 56-year-old history professors, Edwin G. Burrows of Brooklyn College and Mike Wallace of John Jay College.
"It isn't the sort of thing one anticlipsates," said Strand, 65, known for his stoic, spare poems. "I don't even
"People keep telling me that this book is entertaining." Wallace said. "That to me is more important than anything else."
The biography prize went to Lindbergh, A. Scott Berg's book about the aviator Charles Lindbergh.
"This is the most exciting day since Anne Morrow gave me permission to write the book," said Berg, 49, who lives in Los Angeles and is the author of two other biographies. The author said it took him a year to persuade Charles Lindbergh's widow to agree to the project and another nine years to write it.
A special music citation was given posthumously to Ellington on the centennial of his birth. The Pulitzer board said the award was given "in recognition of his musical genius, which evoked aesthetically the principles of democracy through the medium of jazz and thus made an indelible contribution to art and culture."
"It just shows that Duke Ellington's music is timeless and still lives in the present," said jazz trumpeter Wynton Marsalis. "Even though it was awarded posthumously, his music is still very alive and vibrant and meaningful today."
Deadlocked jury acquits McDougal of obstruction Judge declares mistrial on two counts of contempt
The Associated Press
LITTLE ROCK, Ark. — In a backset to Kenneth Starr, Susan McDougal was found not guilty of obstructing the Whitewater investigation and the judge declared a mistrial yesterday on the other two charges against her.
With the jury hopelessly deadlocked on the two criminal contempt charges, U.S. District Judge George Howard Jr. declared the mistrial on those counts and allowed jurors to deliver the one verdict they could agree on.
Afterwards, prosecutor Mark Barrett said he had consulted with Starr and that a retrial was
definitely an option that they would consider.
President and Hilary Clinton's former Whitewater partner was charged with obstruction and criminal contempt for refusing to testify to grand juries in the Whitewater probe in 1996 and in 1998.
She said her refusal was based on fear that she would have been charged with perjury unless she falsely implicated the president and first lady in wrongdoing.
PETER SCHULTE
McDougal: Said she had been afraid to testify.
McDougal said the obstruction charge on which she was acquitted was the big count because the question for the jury was whether or not Ken Starr was seeking the truth.
"They don't have the guts to retry this case again because now we know where the bodies are buried," said McDougal's lawyer Mark Geragos.
Barrett said that if there was a retrial on the two criminal contempt counts, it was unlikely McDougal would be allowed to inject her allegations that Starr wanted her to lie.
McDougal's accusation was allowed into the trial only as a defense to the obstruction charge. The jury was instructed not to consider it in regard to the contempt counts.
One of the jurors, Michael Nance, who wanted to acquit McDougal on all three counts, said Starr's office was not on trial, only McDougal.
Nance said McDougal's state of mind was the kev to the case.
"She honestly believed that she could be held for a false statement" and that explained why didn't she talk, said Nance.
Taking the witness stand at her trial last month, the Clintons' former Whitewater partner answered some of the questions she'd refused to address to the grand juries. She now says that as far as she knows, Clinton told the truth at her 1996 trial.

Senate referendums
Wheels turning in effort to create public transportation
By Nadia Mustafa
nmustafa@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
the University of Kansas and the City of Lawrence will be one step closer to achieving a joint citywide bus system after Student Senate elections this
week if students vote in favor of pursuing such a system.
On Wednesday and Thursday, the student body will decide through a referendum on the ballot whether it wants Senate, the administration and city officials to coordinate a citywide transportation system between KU On Wheels and the city.
Nicole Skalla, KU On Wheels transportation coordinator, and Holly Krebs, holdover senator and transportation coordinator-elect, constructed the proposal to gain administrative backing for a public transportation system.
They said that the University's support was key to coordinating with city officials and to lobbying the state legislature next fall to alter a student fee status that disallowed the use of the campus transportation fee to finance nonstudent programs. This fee status is an obstacle that must be overcome before a joint bus system can be implemented because a citywide transportation system would benefit not only students, but also other Lawrence residents.
skalla, Krebs and other senators who
Skalla, Krebs and other senators are members of what is now called the transportation task force have been examining the issue of public transportation for almost a year.
Most senators said that the major issues involved with negotiating a joint system would be cost and student control.
Skalla said that the estimated operating costs of a public transportation system would be about $3 million a year. She said that because the University probably would be able to foot its portion of the bill within KU On Wheels' existing $1.5 million budget, student fees would not increase. However, she predicted that if fees did increase, it would not be for another two years and
two years and the increase would only be about $1 or $2.
Skalla said that the city could request federal government funding for up to 80 percent of the system's capital expenditures and up to 50 percent of its yearly operating costs. Also, she said, the state legislature would probably increase funding for transportation this session.
Krebs said that she hoped next year's Senate would be supportive of a public transportation system. She said she was enthusiastic that all three new city commissioners were in favor of working toward a citywide transportation system.
"We have the most public transportation-friendly city commission we've ever had in Lawrence." Krebs said.
If the referendum passes, the task force will encourage the city commission to make public transportation a budget priority.
Mayor Marty Kennedy said that he was in favor of working with the University toward a joint bus system and that he was glad students were getting involved.
If students, administrators and city officials decide to coordinate a citywide bus system, it would be gradually implemented, beginning with minor changes such as bus routes in small Lawrence neighborhoods that could link to KU On Wheels routes. Skalla said it would
probably be a 10-to 15-year process.
Tom Moore, Student Legislative Awareness Board campus director and task force member, talked to city commissioners this week about the formation of a formal transportation task force consisting of city officials, administrators, students and Lawrence citizens who are members of transportation-related interest groups.
The task force, which would be similar to the alcohol task force, would allow a collective, in-depth examination of the issue by various members of the Lawrence community. Moore said that it would be a step toward finalizing details such as hiring a consulting firm, costs and the number of buses.
"We all agree on the problem, we just don't agree on a solution," he said.
Members of the city commission did not dismiss the idea of forming a task force, but said that they wanted to wait until next month to decide
Sun
Both Chancellor Robert
Hemenway and Provost David Shu-lenburger said they did not oppose the idea of a public transportation system. But, they questioned how much the system would cost and who would pay for it.

Students who oppose an eventual $49 fee increase to finance a new campus recreation center may have no choice if the student body approves the project this week, an issue that has recently become tangled in Student Senate campaign politics.
The recreation task force wants to model the proposed new $16 million campus recreation center on Kansas State University's center. Contributed art
A proposal created by the recreation task force for a new $16 million free-standing campus recreation center will head the list of three reverendums on the ballot during Senate elections Wednesday and Thursday. The task force, which is composed of students and administrators, began research and surveys for the proposal last semester.
If the referendum passes, the Board of Regents must approve the project
this summer and the state legislature would review it next spring. If approved, construction would begin in fall 2000 and the center would open for 18-hour student recreational use in summer 2002.
Student fees would not increase for the next academic year, but would increase $15 during 2000-2001 and $34 for 2001-2002—a total of $49. Intramural sports and the KU Fit program would be free for students who used the new center.
Kevin Yoder, student body president and task force chairman, said that the task force's proposal would be the best use of student fees.
"This proposal is adequate to support many of our recreational needs, while at the same time not being extravagant or overdone," he said.
The center would probably be located south of
However, Karen Gallagher, dean of education.
Last week, Provost David Shulenburger affirmed that students would continue to have access to recreational facilities at Robinson Center if a new center were built. He said that academic endeavors would continue to have first claim on Robinson because it was built with state funds for academic purposes.
Watkins Health Center. It would include four multi-purpose gymnasiums, two racquetball courts, a cardiovascular fitness and weight training center, aerobic and dance studio, suspended walking and jogging track, rock climbing wall, martial arts studio, multi-purpose combative arts room, activities lounge, cubicles for sports clubs, locker rooms and student service center.
said that soon there would less space available for student recreational use at Robinson because needs for instructional and non-credit activity space were both increasing. She said that Health, Sport and Exercise Science courses such as racquetball, badminton and bowling had been expanding during the past two years, and that Robinson would not be able to cater to both the recreational and academic needs of students.
Some students who oppose the task force's proposal suggested an addition to the south or west of Robinson instead of a new center.
Tom Waehler, planning and programming coordinator for design and construction management, said that an addition might not be a good long-term investment. He said that pressure would continue to grow for using Robinson solely for academic
and research purposes.
Yoder said that the new center would not solve all of the University of Kansas' recreational problems, but that students would have the option of making additions in the future.
In a phone survey of about 460 students conducted by the task force last November, 78.4 percent of those surveyed said that they were satisfied with the quality of services and activities at the University. Only 12.9 percent responded that they were unsatisfied.
But, in the same survey, 67.4 percent of students surveyed reported that they felt that new or improved recreational sports facilities should be a priority for the University, while 26.9 percent said that it shouldn't be a priority.
Hate crime proposal set to face referendum

The University of Kansas may consider implementing a zero-tolerance policy for hate crimes and sexual assault, a policy that more than 1,000 students favor.
The policy proposal will be one of three referendums on the ballot for a student body vote during Student Senate elections Wednesday and Thursday. If the referendum passes, an unofficial group called Students Against Hate, which was formed this semester to pursue a zero
tolerance policy, will present the proposal to the administration.
proposed to the administration.
If the administration approves,
the policy would require that the
University expel students convicted of committing violent hate crimes or sexual assault.
Matt Caldwell, 1998 KU graduate and Lawrence activist, is a member of Students Against Hate. He said that he hoped the policy would be implemented within a year.
PETER THOMAS HARRIS
"Fundamentally, we live in a racist, patriarchal society." Caldwell said. "By increasing awareness, we can start to break
Caldwell
down those constructions and start to see the incidents. We're looking at changing the way people think."
Caldwell defined a hate crime as an act motivated by hate and characterized by violence or continual threats indicating the potential for violent behavior against an individual. He said that the policy would not inhibit freedom of speech because it was not aimed at hate speech without the potential of violence.
Caldwell referred to an incident earlier this semester in which a student was arrested for burning a swastika into the carpet of the lobby at Oliver Hall. He said that the general consensus was that it was a hate crime, but that the individual would not be expelled under a tolerance policy because it was an isolated incident that could be considered a case of freedom of speech. He said that because no one was hurt, the individual would probably only be convicted of property damage.
But, Caldwell referred to another incident last year in which two students damaged the car of a student they thought was gay and threw rocks at him, while they chased him down the hill near the Campanile, shouting offensive slurs and death threats. Under the proposed policy's definition of a hate crime, the assailants would be expelled if the victim suffered bodily harm because it would be classified as a violent crime. Furthermore, if a court of law determined that the death threats carried violent potential, the assailants could also be expelled on that count.
In addition, Caldwell said, concerns about the constitutionality of a zero-tolerance policy were unfounded because the Constitution allowed state universities to reserve the right to expel students for certain types of behavior, such as cheating and plagiarism, as KU policy does.
Richard Levy, professor of law, said that the University could implement a zero-tolerance policy if it was not contrary to state and federal regulations.
Any University policy would have to be within the general scope of authority of regulations on campus;" he said.
Levy said that he did not foresee any conflicts with students' constitutional rights to free speech within the violent crime component of the policy. He said that punishing threats was more complicated, but that he viewed hate threats as more similar to crimes than free speech.
"It's clearly not regarded as a violation of freedom of speech to punish someone for making threats," Levy said.
Caldwell said that the policy proposal was a response to a nationwide phenomenon in which hate crime assailants were not prosecuted because of vague federal policies.
Caldwell said that hate crimes at the University were increasing, but that it was difficult to rely on statistics because most incidents were not reported. Thus, he said, awareness about hate crimes was low.
Last year, the KU Public Safety Office reported five hate crimes and three cases of sexual assault.
Chris Keary, assistant director of the KU Public Safety Office, said that the Office would support a policy that would combat hate crimes.
Chancellor Robert Hemenway said that he was concerned about hate crimes, but that the University would not step away from due process, which he said was required by law and the administration's interpretation of the principle of fairness.
it has not yet been proven whether a zero-tolerance policy would violate due process.
Caldwell said that if the policy were implemented, a board composed of students and faculty members could review cases of hate crimes and assault accus. The University now has a similar board, but Caldwell said that it was ineffective in regard to hate crimes, primarily because there was no zero-tolerance policy in place.
"This is not a vindictive effort on anybody's part," he said. "We just want increase awareness and decrease incidents."

Swimmer hopes for 2000 Olympics
Kansas athlete swims world's 14th-fastest mile
By Emily Hughey
Kansan sportswriter
He comes sailing up the steps of Anschutz Library in jeans and a gray fleece pulover. As he opens the door, he scans the entryway and smooths his hands over his shaven head. He's obviously an athlete. However, he's not just any Kansas athlete.
Tyler Painter is a swimmer.
He pulls his fleece over his head and his shirt creeps up, revealing the smooth muscles of a swimmers' torso — the same muscles that swam him to the U.S. Olympic Trials at age 18, the Pan-Pacific Championships and World Championships at age 19 and the NCAA Championships his freshman year at Kansas.
"I've never been in this library before."
Printed quote: "I don't go to the library much."
Painter said, "I don't go to the library much." At Watson Library, though, he's present all the time. Not physically, but on level two, in the record books and on the Internet. No. 14. Tyler Painter, 1600-meter freestyle. 15:17.01.
In the mile swim, only 13 men in the world are faster than Painter.
Painter has plenty of experience with interviews, although he doesn't relish them. After his eighth-place finish at the 1998 World Championships, a trip to the 1996 Olympic Trials and a second-place finish as a freshman at the NCAA Championships in 1997, Painter has gotten attention all around the world.
At home in Greeley, Co., he said that he can't even go to the grocery store without someone asking him about swimming. Even in Greeley, he said, the fame he and other top-caliber swimmers experience in the United States is nothing compared to other places like Australia where swimmers are national heroes.
"It was cool in Australia. People were asking

us for autographs because we were the U.S. National Team." Painter said. "I didn't realize it until after it was done. You know, you don't appreciate things while they're going on, but when you put on that uniform, people look and little kids ask you for your autograph and you're like. 'Why are you asking me?'
Maybe they ask him because they know he's fast. Maybe they ask him because he's their hero. Maybe they ask because Painter can swim a mile faster than most men in the world. Maybe they ask him because they see something beyond the records and flip turns.
Because I am a painter, my kids love to swim.
"I'm one of those people who likes swimming, but I try not to let it consume who I'm going to be." Painter said.
Because Tyler Painter isn't just a swimmer.
In high school, he said, most of his friends were football, baseball and basketball players in contrast to the swimmer-dominated circle of friends he has now. Although he said he values his close friends at Kansas, Painter has found that he has to be more cautious when making friends because he doesn't always know their motives.
"The more attention I get, the less willing I am to be friends with new people," he said. "The friends I have, I keep, and I think I have a good amount of close friends."
It doesn't matter with whom Painter spends his free time, but he spends it differently here than in Greeley.
"I don't like bars. I just like hanging out with my friends and having a good time," Painter said.
A student at the eighth-ranked party school who doesn't 'like bars?'
"They're too much money. I can't stand cigarette smoke. I'd rather not be in a bar." Painter said. He shrugs and the corner of his mouth turns up slightly. "Besides, I just turned 21 a month ago, so I'm now at this."

Small crowd present for Wizards' first goal
By Brad Hallier sports@kansan.com Kansan sportswriter
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Kansas City Wizards fans didn't want to think about coming back to Arrowhead Stadium in the same situation for the next home game on April 28.
Dating back to the 1998 season, it had been more than six games since the Wizards had scored a goal. During Saturday's game, the Wizards tried to give their fans something to finally cheer about in a game they were losing 1-0 to the San Jose Clash
Midfielder Chris Henderson rifled a point-blank shot in the first half, but Clash goalkeeper David Kramer knocked it aside.
Forward Digital Takawira played with more confidence than ever but couldn't find the scoring touch.
Midfield general Prek1 dashed all over the Clash's defensive end, shooting left and right, but every shot was denied.
Finally, in the 87th minute, rookie forward Chris Brown took the ball at the left edge of the Clash penalty box,juked
two defenders and fired a perfect shot into the lower right-hand corner of the goal, causing the 4,815 fans to roar.
The small crowd illustrated attendance problems the Wizards have dealt with for the past three years.
When the Wizards played their 1996 inaugural game, 21,141 fans jammed the lower deck of Arrowhead Stadium to watch Kansas City trounce Colorado 3-0. Attendance since has never rivaled that game.
Doug Newman, general manager of the Wizards, said that he expected a low turnout for Saturday's game, eventually won by the Clash in a shootout.
"People are used to coming to our games on Saturday nights," Newman said. "A lot of youth soccer players and parents come to those games, and they are playing as we speak."
The game was played in the afternoon to accommodate ESPN2 coverage. Newman said that he would have preferred to play at night rather than televise the game nationally.

After tonight's game at 7,
Kansas, 10-27, will travel to

Surprise, surprise. The Kansas baseball team will yet again welcome a nationally ranked opponent to Hoglund Ballpark as No. 13 Wichita State comes to town tonight.

as it's in the middle of a season high, nine-game losing streak.
While Kansas is coming off of a disappointing sweep to Missouri, the Shockers head into Lawrence after defeating Illinois State in
"It's tough, but we wouldn't have it any other way," senior pitcher Chris Williams said. "We want to see how we stack up against the best."

four straight games last weekend. The wins pushed Wichita State's winning streak to seven games.
Senior second baseman Kevin Hooper also powers the Wichita State offense. Hooper is hitting .422 in 29 games this season, although he has recently returned from an injury.
The Shocker pitching staff, as it seems to be every year, is as solid as ever as starter Ben Chris-
lensen is 8-1 with a 2.52 earned run average, and reliever Marc Bluma is 2-1 with eight saves and an ERA of 1.69.
Kansas senior first baseman Chad King is aware of the Shockers' potency, but he said that he tried to treat them as just another opponent.
"Their pitching staff is strong this year, and I think year to year they've enjoyed more success than we have, but we try to look at them as any other team," King said.
Last weekend's losses hurt the
Jayhawks' chances of making the

'Fifth Period botched shot haunts writer
Among some members of The University Daily Kansan sports staff, it is known simply as "The Fifth Period."
I had hoped I could leave the University of Kansas without ever writing about the ominous "Fifth Period." But because of constant berating by colleagues and a few threats that if don't tell the story, they will, I am forced to talk about how what could have been one of my greatest moments in seventh grade, turned into a debacle.
To them, it is a humorous story about a young child making a fool of himself on the basketball court. To me, it is an embarrassing moment that marked the downfall of a young man's basketball career and sent him on a path toward writing instead of schooling others on the playground.
My middle school had four basketball teams: Gold A & B and Green A & B. The gold teams were, of course, the good teams, and the green teams were comprised mostly of students who tried hard, but simply couldn't get the ball in the basket if the hoop was a mere three feet tall.
I was assigned to Green B, a team made
up of overweight kids who had trouble running up and down the court and really skinny kids who lacked the strength to actually throw the ball the 10 feet it needed to go.
I couldn't even make the starting five.

Not only that, it was hard to get everyone in the game in the time allotted, and so, for that reason, "The Fifth Period" was great.
Fifth Period" was created.
The fifth period was just that, a fifth period played after the first four regular ones. It was reserved for those players who got little or no playing time in regulation.
After all, this was middle school, a place where winning was not as important as having fun and giving kids an opportunity to be part of a team. The period didn't count in the stat book but counted in the hearts of the participants and their parents.
I logged most of my minutes in the fifth period.
And it was during the fifth period that my big moment came, went and made me a laughingstock on the bus ride home.
After watching my teammates pound a team from across the city, the fifth period arrived and I got the call.
I had scored two points, was having fun and then it happened.
Things were going pretty well.
This would be easy: a simple layup that could give my team a lead and maybe lead us to victory.
Somehow I was left open, and alone, directly underneath the basket, and the ball wound up in my hands.
The ball hit the rim again, coming right back at me.
It drilled the front of the rim and shot back at me like a missile.
I put up the shot.
I put up a second shot, this time amid cries that I believed were cheering me on, encouraging me to hit the big shot.
There was not time for a third shot before one of my teammates came down the court and ripped the ball from me, saying, "You're shooting at the wrong basket!"
I looked around, realizing the crowd was not encouraging me to shoot but urging me to get back on the bench.
We didn't win the game. Time ran out and, along with it, so did my basketball career.
I may be the only one who remembers that sad day on the basketball court. In fact, I am sure I am. But every time I am on the court today, trying to ball with playground wannabes, I always look up to make sure I am at the right basket.
After all, I don't want to give away that I was a fifth-period player.

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (April 13).
Your subconscious is trying to tell you something this year, so pay attention. Your dreams could be prophetic. Love and travel both look good in April. Structure is necessary in May, and romance blossoms in June. Try something different for a vacation in August, but stick to the same old same old in November. Take a trip back in time in December, and relax with good friends around February. Be listening for inspiration in March.
Aries (March 21-April 19): Today is a 7.
It might seem like your worst fears have come true today as new secretes are revealed. Don't go into a rage or a dither. You can still be effective if you inspire others to the right path.
Taurus (April 20-May 20); Today is a 7.
Gemini (May 21-June 21); Today is a 5.
Taurus (April 20-May 20): Today is a 7.
Teamwork is the key to your success again, especially if you're feeling pressured. Somebody needs the job done now, and you can't do it all by yourself, nor should you have to. Get others involved, and the final outcome will be better for all.
Gemini (May 21-June 21): Today is a 5.
You're usually the big talker, but today just the opposite is advised. Instead of saying much, continue to list ten with respect and admiration. You might ask a few leading questions but not much more than that. Be on a mission to find out the truth, and you'll succeed beyond your wildest expectations.
Cancer [June 22-July 22]: Today is a 7.
Cancer (June 22-July 22): Today is a 7.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Today is a 5.
You and your partner need to talk business. Figure out how much you have and how you're going to allocate it. A conversation about money today can open up new possibilities and keep you from making a silly mistake.

The inspiration today could come from you in a rather unexpected manner. You're busy doing something you've done a thousand times before when suddenly you see it with new eyes. You understand it from the other point of view, and that makes all the difference. It could also lead to a promotion.
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Today is a 7.
Looks like somebody you love comes up with a brilliant idea. This could be your mate or true love, but it might also be a young child. Don't ignore obvious brilliance just because it comes from an unlikely source. Heed it and take it to heart.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Today is a 5.
Looks like there are a few changes underway at your place. This is certainly a good time to make them hap pen. If you get to getting something's just not right, trust your hunch.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Today is a 7.
You could have a brilliant insight today. Set yourself up for it by surrounding yourself with interesting material. Practice a skill you're trying to learn. The part you already know you don't know is going to be a cinch. The interesting part is what you don't know you don't know.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Today is a 5. The moon's in Pisces, the sign of inspiration, and you could have a nifty one. Put that with material you've recently learned, and you could make one of those fabulous discoveries that people get famous for

Judge overturns Bonds' prenuptial agreement
Bonds and his first wife, Sun, signed an agreement the day before their wedding in February 1988 in which they relinquished the right to community property and agreed to keep future earnings separate. The effect was to deny her a 50 percent share of his salary, which was $8 million a year when they divorced in December 1994.
SAN FRANCISCO — A state appeals court overturned Barry Bonds' preemptual agreement with his ex-wife yesterday and granted her half of his baseball earnings during their nearly seven-year marriage.
SPORTS BRIEFS AND SCORES
But the 1st District Court of Appeals ruled yesterday that the agreement was invalid because Sun Bonds didn't have her own lawyer, was not told by Bonds' attorneys why she needed a lawyer and was warned by Bonds' agent that there would be no wedding unless she signed.
LA JUSTICE
The agreement itself was filled with typographical errors and appears to have been altered by Bonds or his representatives before a copy was presented in court, the justices said.
In addition, Sun Bonds, a Swedish immigrant who had been in the United States only a month, did not understand English well and was advised only by a Swedish friend, while Bonds was represented by two lawyers and a financial adviser, the court said.
The 2.1 ruling concluded that Sun Bonds did not voluntarily surrender her right to community property.
NEW YORK — After years of complaints and threats, George Steinbrenner now says the New York Yankees might stay right where they are at Yankee Stadium.
Yankees may not leave Yankee Stadium in 2002
With the team's lease expiring in 2002, the team's principal owner said in Crain's New York Business magazine yesterday that he may exer cise an option and remain in the Bronx.

"We have some options on that lease. We can extend it at least five years," Steinbrenner said.

Steinbrenner has repeatedly delayed a decision on whether the World Series champions would remain at their hallowed ballpark, move to the West Side of Manhattar

"If they want to improve the schools, improve the living conditions for the people, then I may want to stay there and help." Steinbrenner said.
N.Y. proposition to limit promotion of boxing
ALBANY, N.Y. — A lawmaker wants to stop anyone with a felony conviction — and that includes Don King — from promoting boxing matches in New York state.
State Sen. Dean Skelos of Long Island filed the bill in response to the disputed heavyweight title fight between Evan Holford and Lennox Law on March 1.3 at Madison Square Garden.
"It is not aimed primarily at (King)," he said. "It is aimed at cleaning up fighting, period. We are trying, whether you like fighting or don't like fighting, to restore it to where it was

respected a number of years ago."
The bill's felony provision would not apply to hovens themselves.
King spokesman Greg Fritz said fight fans would suffer if King cannot promote bouts in New York.
"If they did that, all they would be doing is denying boxing fans and sports fans the chance to watch great fights," he said.
If the measure passes, Fritz said,
"there are other places that would be happy to have Don King-promoted flights."
King was convicted of second-degree murder Feb. 23, 1967. The charge was reduced to manslaughter and he served nearly four years in an Ohio prison. King had shot and killed a man in 1954 and the crime was later ruled justifiable homicide after King had served the prison sentence.

Skelos is the deputy majority leader in the Republican-controlled Senate. His bill has yet to find a Democratic sponsor in the Democrat-controlled state Assembly, a usual prerequisite to passage in that chamber.

Punch earns Malone one game suspension
fight.
NEW YORK — Karl Malone of the Utah Jazz will miss one game and lose $4,000 for throwing a punch, and Anthony Johnson of the Atlanta Hawks will sit out a game and pay $5,000 for throwing an elbow.
while Johnson's penalty resulted from elbowing Bob Sura of Cleveland, also on Sunday.
The suspension and fines were announced Monday by the NBA, as was a $7,500 fine to Atlanta's Dikembe Mutombo for elbowing.
Malone was to miss last night's game against Vancouver, and Johnson will miss tonight's game against Milwaukee.
Malone was penalized for throwing a punch at Othella Harrington of Houston on Sunday.

Kansas swimmer aims for target of next Olympics
Continued from page 1B
Although Painter may not frequent drinking establishments, teammate Jon Reyes said he still knows how to have a good time.
"He does have a pretty big group of friends, but he's not going to go out and drink at the bars because it would look bad for the team," Reyes said. "He's a lot of fun. He always has a good time no matter what he does."
In Colorado, Painter finds entertainment in the outdoors. Painter often misses the wilderness of his home state.
"I used to ski. I love the outdoors. I don't get a chance to go camping anymore." Painter said. "That's one of my regrets, actually, I don't get a lot of time to spend in the outdoors."
One thing that does stay the same no matter where in the world Painter goes is his passion for music. He is always trying to uncover new bands before anyone else does.
"I like to find new stuff that no one else has heard. I listen to rap music, hip-hop. I have over 250 CDs." he said.
"I actually get along with my family. I like them," he said, laughing. "My mom, she's a sweet lady. She takes care of us all the time. When I'm feeling bad, I can always talk to my mom. My dad, he's been my coach, but he's also been my dad. My brother, he's a little hellion, but he's learning. I think my parents raised me and my brother really well. I like my parents a lot."
Another thing he misses is his family.
Possibly a return to Australia? To Sydney? In the summer of 2000?
"I'm going to have to work hard and get back on my game to make it but it's a definite possibility," Painter said. "There are five guys in the U.S. that could do it, and I'm one of them ... definitely."
Painter said that his family had always been supportive of his swimming career and that he thought the future could bring some exciting credentials.
Reyes, who trains distance freestyle with Painter, said he thinks Painter has what it takes to be an Olympian
"I think he can do anything. I think he has a legitimate shot to medal at the Olympics," he said. "He's the best swimmer I've seen. A lot of people think he's just got a lot of talent, but it's his work ethic. He works hard every day."
Painter will not stop until he's satisfied, a time that may never come.
"I'm not happy, I'm never content. I just always think I can do better no matter what I do," he said.

Allen looks to fill gaps at linebacker position
Losing all four starting line backers to graduation usually is a problem for most college football teams.
Not so for Kansas, said coach Terry Allen.
"I actually think our linebackers might be better this season," Allen said.
Coming into spring drills, the Jayhawks had only three line-backers — Tim Bowers, Andrew LeClair and Scott Rogers — who received playing time at the position last fall.
Along with the three returnees, Allen and his staff
will look at several players to fill the gap that last year's seniors left.
"Obviously, we have a lot of new faces at the linebacker position." Allen said.
Among the newcomers is Algie Atkinson, who played on special teams last season, Dariss Lomax, who was academically ineligible last year, junior-college recruit Chaz Murphy, converted defensive back Ocasio Cofield, and Scott Rogers, who played for the Scottsdale Community College Fighting Artichokes last fall.
These new faces will continue to move around until the best group is on the field. Allen said.
"We may look at some more
people inside from that outside linebacker group, and we may start moving our front around to take advantage of the linebackers and what they can do." Allen said. "It's kind of a continuous mix."
Rogers thinks the rivalry maintains the players' competiveness through the monotony of everyday drills.
"As of right now, none of the linebackers really know who's starting," Rogers said.
Spring Football Notes
Which players would play at what position came into a better focus yesterday, as Allen released the first depth chart of the spring season.
As usual, the first team on the
chart was filled with regular names — Zac Wegner, David Winbush, Dion Rayford. — but it also had its share of surprises.
Among those are the defensive secondary, where only Andrew Davison has sewed up a starting position, and at tight end, where David Hurst, who redshirted last season, is listed ahead of Jason Gulley, who started the final seven games of last season.
"If we were to play tomorrow, David would start," Allen said. "But I think we can be very good with either of those two guys."
Defensive backs Chad Coilner and Muhammad Abdul-
Rahim are also among those who started last season and are still competing for starting jobs. Allen said.
■ Count backup safety Bilal Cook as another player who will lose time this spring because of an injury, Allen said. Cook has a reoccurring hamstring problem and will not see action for the rest of spring drills, he said.
The Jayhawks pushed practice yesterday back an hour, leading some players, such as center Chris Enneking, to miss practice because of classes.
Kansas will practice at its normal time of 3:20 p.m. today, Allen said.
Wizards struggle for goals, increased attendance
—Edited by Tara Hinkhouse
Continued from page 1B
"We felt we would do well the first game with attendance, and we did, and then we knew we would have a dropoff this game and the game on the Saturday before Easter," Newman said. "We knew these games would be well attended, so we hadn't put a whole lot of effort into promoting them. We're focusing on five or six games this year to help drive our attendance up instead of trying to make something happen all 16 games."
There have been efforts by the Wizards this year to get more fans at the games.
Fans had a reason to get excited on Jan. 28 when the Wizards shipped goalkeeper Mike Ammann and midfielder Mark Chung to the New York/New Jersey MetroStars for two of the most famous names in U.S. soccer history — goalkeeper Tony Meola and defender Alexi Lalas.
New season-ticket sales doubled after the trade, said ticket manager Dan Fagard.
"Ticket sales have gone up in general," Faggard said. "There is more interest in single-game tickets now with the general public."
The Wizards also joined forces with the Kansas City Chiefs. On Feb. 18, Carl Peterson, Chiefs president, general manager and CEO, announced that the Chiefs would execute all functions related to the sales, marketing, promotion, ticketing and advertising of the Wizards as well as those associated with the Chiefs.
But still, attendance numbers have not been impressive this year.
Soccer is not a foreign sport to the area. The Kansas City metropolitan area has a higher number of youth soccer players per capita than any other major metro area. In the mid-1980s, the Kansas City Comets of the now-defunct Major Indoor Soccer League, would routinely sell out games. In 1984-85 the Comets sold out every game at Kemper Arena with an average attendance over 15,000, a number the Wizards have yet to touch.
Brad Likens, Overland park senior and lifelong soccer player and fan, said that he doesn't think the people in Kansas City are too familiar with the Wizards yet.
"I also think that indoor soccer is more for the non-soccer people because it's faster-paced," he said. "Plus the Comets and the MISL had been around for a few years already."
The Wizards have a student promotion every game. Newman said that anyone showing a student identification can get discounted tickets.
Newman added that the Wizards would like to get the word out to people outside of Kansas City.
"We're definitely looking into Lawrence and other areas, but obviously we're interested in the Kansas City market now." Newman said. "Hopefully those people who come to the bigger nights with a better atmosphere and crowd will have more of an inclination to try our other games."

Flyers' Lindros released from hospital, recovering
The Associated Press
PHILADELPHIA — Philadelphia Flyers center Eric Lindros was released from the hospital yesterday, four days after undergoing surgery to remove a blood clot from his chest cavity.
Lindros currently is on medication to regenerate the blood he lost. Kaiser said.
Lindros left the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania at about 10 a.m. yesterday, said Dr. Larry Kaiser, a chest surgeon who performed the operation Friday.
In the 90-minute procedure, called video thoroscopy, doctors inserted a tube and a microscopic camera through two small incisions in Lindros' chest. The fluid and clotted blood was in the area between the lung and the diaphragm.
Kaiser had removed a blood clot that was pressing against the lower lobe of Lindros' right lung, keeping it from fully expanding. Lindros, 26, underwent the surgery after suffering a setback in his recovery from a collapsed lung.
"I think he looks great; he's certainly feeling 100 percent better than he felt the other day," Kaiser said. "From the chest surgery standpoint, he's breathing well, feels well, (is moving around, not really having much pain."
The Flyers' prolific scorer and team captain flew to Philadelphia after being released from a hospital in Nashville, Tenn., on April 8. He was expecting to go to the arena and meet with teammates before their game with Pittsburgh. Those plans were canceled after he ran a fever higher than 102 degrees, and doctors discovered the fluid buildup in his chest cavity.
Nashville Predators on April 1. Kaiser said the blood likely seeped from his lung, adding that he found no evidence that a blood vessel had ruptured.
Doctors don't know for sure what caused about six pints of blood to seep into Lindros' chest after a 2:1 victory over the
The chance of Lindros returning for the playoffs is considered slim, and Rod Brind'Amour has been elevated to captain while Lindros is out.
St. John's star to enter draft
Artest to reveal decision today, close source says
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Ron Artest, who led St. John's to a 50-19 record in his two seasons there, has decided to forgo his final two years with the Red Storm and apply for the NBA draft, The Associated Press has learned.
A source close to Artest, who spoke on the condition of anonymity, said Sunday that the 6-foot-6 swingman, who was a third-team All-American last season, will announce his decision today.
Artest, who led the Red Storm to the NCAA tournament regional final last month, is planning to make the announcement at a news conference at the community center in his Queensbridge, N.Y., neighborhood.
Artest led St. John's (28-9) in scoring last season at 14.5 points a game and also averaged 6.3 rebounds, but had one of his worst offensive games of the season in the Red Storm's 77-74 loss to Ohio State in the South Regional final.
Artest had nine points and nine rebounds in the game, but he was 4 for 10 from the field, including 1 for 5 from three-point range. He also had five turnovers in the opening 11 minutes.
He was recruited to St. John's by former coach Fran Fraschilla and played for him as a freshman, when the Red Storm went 22-10 and made the NCAA tournament for the first time since 1993.
Fraschilla was fired after the season and replaced by Mike Jarvis. The only senior starter for St. John's last season was forward Tyrone Grant.
Other players who have declared for the draft include Maryland's Steve Francis, a second-team All-American as a junior, and junior forward Albert White of Missouri.
for the NBA draft since Walter Berry, who left after being named national player of the year as a junior in 1986.
Others who might enter the NBA draft are: Duke's Elton Brand, the national player of the year, and fellow Blue Devil William Avery; Richard Hamilton of national-champion Connecticut; Lamar Odom of Rhode Island; Baron Davis of UCLA; Jumaine Jones of Georgia; Chris Porter of Auburn; and Mateen Cleaves of Michigan State.
Artest would become the first player to leave St. John's early
Top NBA prospects who have said they will return to college next season include point guards Ed Cota of North Carolina and Scoonie Penn of Ohio State, both juniors, sophomore Khalid El-Amin of Connecticut and DePaul freshman swingman Quintin Richardson.
Duke players considering leaving early, paper reports
The Associated Press
DURHAM, N.C. — Duke sophomores William Avery and Elton Brand will forgo their final two years of eligibility and enter the NBA draft, the school's newspaper reported.
The two star players would become the first Blue Devils to leave the program early.
CNN-SI reported last week that Brand, an All-American and player of the year, would hold a news conference this week to say he was turning pro.
The Duke Chronicle, quoting an unidentified source close to the team.
reported yesterday that Avery planned to do the same.
"First I ve heard of it," Duke spokesman Mike Cragg said Sunday night of the report on Avery.
VOLLEYBALL
Tom Kosempa, another school spokesman, told The Chronicle he was unaware either player had reached a decision.
Brand has been honored this year by The Associated Press, the Los Angeles Athletic Club, the Atlanta Tipoff Club, the United States Basketball Writers Association and the Atlantic Coast Conference.
He averaged 17.8 points and 9.8 rebounds for the Blue Devils, who finished 37-2, including a perfect record in ACC play. Duke lost to Connecticut 77-74 in the NCAA championship game.
Avery, an honorable-mention All American, had the top vote on the AP's All-ACC second team, averaging 14.9 points and five assists a game this season.
Poor grades were a factor in Avery's decision, the source told The Chronicle. The newspaper also said Avery has met with Duke coach Kryzewski in the past few days to discuss his future. Krzyzewski has been recovering at home from hip-replacement surgery on Easter Sunday.

Indians drop Royals in 10 innings
Loss ends Royals' three-game streak
The Associated Press
CLEVELAND — As Travis Fryman rounded the bases, his indians teammates gathered around the plate to welcome him home. A year ago, they had waited there for Jim Thome.
Fryman hit a three-run homer in the 10th inning, an extra inning to break a game tied after nine. The homer, off rookie Royals pitcher Jose Santiago, gave Cleveland its sixth straight win, 5-2, yesterday against the Kansas City Royals on opening day at Jacobs Field.
It was the second straight year the Indians had won their first home game with a three-run shot in the 10th. Last season, Thome connected off Anaheim's Troy Percival.
Enrique Wilson-hit a gametying, two-run homer in the eighth for the Indians, who for seven innings looked nothing like the team that destroyed the Minnesota Twins during the weekend.
matter I twins during the weekend.
Roberto Alomar made his home debut for the Indians, but missed a chance to end the game in the ninth when he grounded out with the bases loaded and two outs. He went 1-for-4 with a walk.
In the 10th, Thome walked with one out, and Wil Cordero followed with a single to left. Fryman, who had grounded into a double play with the bases loaded to kill a threat in the fourth, then hit the first pitch from Santiago (0-1) over the wall in right-center.
Paul Shuey (1-0) struck out four in two innings of relief to get the win for Cleveland.
Jermaine Dye homered for the Royals, who had their three-game winning streak stopped.
Wilson's two-run homer in the eighth came off Scott Service for the Indians, who after scoring 35 runs in three games over the weekend in Minnesota, were blanked over the first 6 1/3 innings by Kansas City starter Jose Rosado.

It was just the third career homer for Wilson and his first batting left-handed. He was only in the lineup because starting shortstop Omar Vizquel has a sore quadriceps muscle.
Vizquel's absence deprived Indians fans of a chance to see him play alongside Roberto Alomar at home for the first time. Cleveland fans may have been grumbling when they saw the pre-game lineup card, but they weren't complaining afterward.
Johnny Damon drove in the other run for the Royals, who beat Cleveland five of six times during spring training.

Lawsuit claims rights violation
The Associated Press
CLEVELAND — Demonstrators at Jacobs Field last Monday burned a wooden sculpture of Chief Wahoo in a coffin, demanding that the Cleveland Indians get rid of their mascot.
About 40 people protested before the home opener against Kansas City to denounce the mascot as a racist caricature of American Indians.
against the Washington Redskins.
"Say goodbye to this big-toothed Wahoo," protester Michael Haney said as flames consumed the carving.
The demonstrators were buoyed by a new lawsuit against the city of Cleveland and several police officers, and by a federal ruling
A trademark panel revoked the Redskins' federal trademark protection, saying the NFL team's name may disparage American Indians.
As fans strolled into Jacobs Field, some protesters pounded a drum and chanted "Hey! Ho! Racist symbol's got to go" as the sculpture burned.
Others held signs, including one that read "These honor who?" and showed versions of Chief Wahoo with the faces of highly stereotyped black, Asian and Hispanic men.
Many of the fans wore the Wahoo logo on jackets and sweatshirts, and a few fans booed the demonstrators.
No one was arrested, unlike previous demonstrations that prompted the new lawsuit.
Five protesters who were arrested last year sued the city
and police officers on Friday, contending their civil rights were violated.
Their claim involves protests dating to 1997. During the World Series that year, three people

another effigy and were arrested.
They were jailed for about a day
and released without being
charged.
The lawsuit asks for an injunction preventing the city from interfering or arresting protesters outside Jacobs Field.
"If you can burn a flag, you can burn a bawoo," said Terry Gilbert, a lawyer for the protesters.
A police spokesman referred questions to city officials, who had no immediate comment. The Cleveland Indians, who are not named as defendants, declined to comment.
Charlene Teters, a plaintiff in the Cleveland lawsuit and vice president of the National Coalition on Racism in Sports and the Media, senses progress.
"The average person has an awareness of this issue they didn't have before," she said.
Teters, who campaigns against Indian mascots throughout the country, said other communities that had Indian logos for sports teams generally regarded Cleveland's as the most derogatory.
"They say to us 'At least we don't have that little red Sambo like they do in Cleveland,'" she said.
Ohio State, Kentucky top Preseason NIT list
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Ohio State, which capped one of college basketball's best turnarounds last season by reaching the Final Four, and Kentucky, which fell one win shy of a fourth straight Final Four appearance, led the field for 1999 Preseason NIT, which was announced yesterday.
Arizona, which won the Presseason NIT in 1990 and 1995, is among seven teams in the field of 16 that played in the NCAA tournament last season.
Ohio State was 8-22 in 1997-98 and reached the Final Four last season, losing to eventual champion Connecticut in the semifinals. Kentucky, which won the national title in 1996 and 1998, lost to Michigan State in the Midwest Regional final.
The other teams that played in the
NCAA tournament and will be in the 15th Preseason NIT are Maryland, Utah, New Mexico State, Pennsylvania, Siena and Arkansas State.
The rest of the field includes Notre Dame, Kansas State, Fordham, Tulane, San Francisco, Davidson and Hofstad.
Five of the teams in the field were ranked in the top 14 teams in the final AP poll of the season: No.5 Maryland, No. 6 Utah, No. 8 Kentucky, No. 13 Arizona and No. 14 Ohio State.
The Presseason NIT opening-round games will be held on campus sites on Nov. 15 and 16, white second-round games will be held on campus sites from Nov. 17-19. The semifinals and finals will be at Madison Square Garden on Nov. 24 and 26.
Bracketing for the Presseason NIT has not been announced.
Corked-bat caper solved pitcher admits to switch
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — After all these years, Jason Grisley has confessed: He was the culprit in the Albert Belle Corked Bat Caper.
Grimsley, then playing for Cleveland and now pitching for the New York Yankees, has admitted he crawled through the bowels of Comiskey Park in 1984 to replace the illegal Belle bat that was being held in the umpires' room.
Grismlies came clean in an interview published Sunday in The New York Times, solving one of baseball's ongoing mysteries.
Good news for Grimsley, too: No disciplinary action is expected.
The whole episode began in the first inning of a Cleveland-Chicago game on July 15, 1994, when White Sox manager Gene Lamont was tipped off that Belle had a corked bat.
Lamont challenged the use of the bat and umpire Dave Phillips took it and put it in his locker. The Indians panicked, knowing the bat was
indeed corked.
The Times reported that Grimsley took a cork-free bat belonging to Paul Sorrento because all of Belle's bats were corked.
With the help of an unidentified Indians' employee, he navigated his way to the spot. Crawling on his belly, a flashlight in his mouth, he finally found it, dropped down on a refrigerator and swiped the bat from Phillips' locker.
After the game, the unipres immediately suspected foul play — the bat, after all, bore Sorrento's name. Finally, the Indians were told that if they supplied Belle's bat there would be no punishment for the switch. Belle received a 10-game suspension that was reduced to seven games on appeal.
Which leaves only one question:
Why, after all these years, did Grimsle-
decide to speak up?
"I was asked whether I would tell the story if there would be no repercussions," Grimsley said. "I figured it was about time."

Wohlers rejects stint in AAA
The Associated Press
ATLANTA — Relever Mark Wohlers has notified Atlanta general manager John Schuerholz that he will not accept his assignment to Class AAA Richmond, apparently ending his career with the Braves.
The Braves had given him the assignment with the hope he would regain the form that made him one of the premier closers in baseball from 1995 to 1997, saving the final game of the 1995 World Series.
Wohlers, who suffered a relapse in his comeback attempt in his first two outings of the season (six walks in two-thirds of an innning), had seemed eager to accept the assignment when informed Friday by manager Bobby Cox and
Schuerholz.
Scherholz said Sunday after Wohlers told him of his decision that he wasn't completely surprised.
"While he first indicated he was very optimistic and interested in accepting the assignment, he
obviously decided, either on his own or after talking to
Braves
someone, that he was not going to accept the assignment," Schuerohlz said. "I'm disappointed that the whole process didn't work, for Mark's sake and the team's sake. It would have been the perfect ending."
Wohlers could have accepted the assignment, refused it, or declared for free agency. Since he
refused it, the Braves are still responsible for his $5.2 million salary unless they trade him by Thursday, April 22. They will release him if a deal can't be worked out.
Among teams thought to be interested in Wohls are the Pittsburgh Pirates and the Arizona Diamondbacks, both of whom would pay a portion of Wohlers' salary. The Atlanta Journal-Constitution said.
Schuerholz said some clubs had expressed interest in Wohlers during the winter and early spring, but he would not say which ones.
Schuerholz stood by the decision he made on Friday after a Thursday night outing against the Phillies in which Wohlers threw only one of 10 pitches for a strike.
DAVIE, Fla. — Tony Martin insists he'll be able to play for the Miami Dolphins this season, even with a trial on charges of laundered drug money awaiting him in August.
The Associated Press
"I have no doubt in my mind I'll be ready to go Sept. 13 in the opening game, where we need to kill the Broncos," he said.
The Dolphins introduced Martin at a news conference yesterday. The 33-year-old wide receiver smiled and joked, sounding cocky and carefree.
"I believe in myself, and I believe in the Lord," he said. "He's not going to let anything happen to me."
Receiver ready despite upcoming trial
A trial scheduled to begin Aug. 2 in Miami will determine whether Martin can play this season. The Dolphins signed him Friday to a four-year, $14.2 million contract, and he'll receive only $100,000 if he's unavailable to play.
Prosecutors say Martin wrote
checks to lease luxury cars and pay legal fees for Rickey Brownlee, who served seven years in prison for 1980s drug convictions. Martin has said he's innocent.
After being indicted in February, Martin was released by the NFC champion Atlanta Falcons.
Miami coach Jimmy Johnson didn't attend the news conference but issued a statement supporting Martin.
"He's an outstanding player, and I've always been impressed with him personally," Johnson said. "There's no question he answers a need and strengthens our receiving corps."
The Dolphins are counting on Martin to provide the deep threat they've been missing for several seasons. His average of 15.3 yards per catch ranks fifth among active receivers with at least 400 receptions. Miami's O.J. McDuffie led the NFL last year with 90 catches but averaged only 11.7 yards.
A Miami native and a converted small-college quarterback, Martin also played for the Dolphins from 1990 to 1993 but averaged just 27 catches and two touchdowns a season.
Miami traded him for a fourth round draft pick to San Diego, where he blossomed.
Martin enjoyed one of his best seasons in 1998 for Atlanta, making 66 catches for 1,181 yards and six touchdowns. The federal investigation that led to the indictment didn't seem to affect his play.
"When you've got a profession, you can't let things distract you," he said. "My job is to go out there and catch passes on Sunday, no matter what is going on around me."
Martin beat the Dolphins on a 35- yard touchdown reception in the final regular-season game last year. After the game, Martin said, Marino and McDuffie told him they wished he could play for the Dolphins.

THE STUDENT NEWSPAPER OF THE UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS
KU men blacklisted via e-mail
(USPS 650-640)
By Jamie Knodel and Heather Woodward jkmodel@kansan.com, hwoodward@kansan.com Kansan staff writers
A humiliating blacklist has been circulating through University of Kansas cyberspace for at least a week.
An e-mail, labeled on the subject line as "BAD BAD BAD Boys!" arrived on the KU campus from the University of Iowa with a note that said, "Allright girls, I got a forward just like this one, and I thought University of Kansas should get on this list. Lord knows we have enough of them here. Put whoever you want on here, and send it to everybody you know."
A list of male KU students follows the note. Some are identified by both their first and last names, along with the names of their respective fraternities. Their names are followed by strong accusations or short anecdotes of a graphic sexual nature.
None of the listed men contacted by the Kansan were willing to comment about the e-mail.
Mark Johnson, a Kansas City, Mo., lawyer who specializes in media and First Amendment law, said the people who sent the e-mail could be held accountable for spreading information that was damaging to the men's reutations.
"An element of defamation is communicating inaccurate information from one person to another." Johnson said. "The act of sending e-mail is an element of defamation if the information is untrue and libelous."
He also said that although the number of people who received the e-mail determined the extent of damage to the men's reputations, a person who sent the e-mail to just one person could still be held accountable for libel.
Johnson said the men could sue for civil damages by alleging that their reputations had been damaged.
Emily Monckton, Alton, Ill., freshman, received the e-mail Friday and sent it to a few friends. She said she thought it was amusing.
"Ijust laughed," Monckton said. "I think people should know about these guys. it might be a little far-fetched, but I wouldn't want to go out on a date with someone who had that kind of reputation."
Monckton said, however, that she didn't know whether the accusations made in the e-mail were true.
Charity Alloway, Conway Springs senior, said she found out last week that she had dated one of the men on the list. She then asked her friends to forward her the e-mail, which she received on Friday.
"I was just amazed that someone would have the nerve to exploit one's reputation about something like that," Alloway said. "At first I thought it was funny, but then I realized that it was just silly and immature."
Alloway forwarded the e-mail to two of her friends who had asked to see it.
Neither Alloway nor Monckton realized that forwarding the e-mail could be libelous.
"I had no idea," Alloway said. "I thought about forwarding it to the guy I know, but I wasn't sure if it was my place to do that. From what I know about him, what was said in the email was totally untrue."
The version of the e-mail provided to the Kansan indicated that at least 23 women received the e-mail. Monckton and Alloway were the only two women willing to comment on it.
Wes Hubert, associate director of academic computing services, said if a complaint was filed about the e-mail, the University would follow the regular student affairs grievance policy.
"The medium here is incidental," Hubert said. "It would not be handled differently because it was an e-mail."

Rain may dampen Senate voter turnout
By Nadia Mustafa
nmusfa@kansan.com
kansan staff writer
Despite a ballot marked by three referendums and numerous candidates, many predict that rainy weather will hinder voter turnout during Student Senate elections today and tomorrow.
Students will begin casting votes at 8 a.m. for student body presidential and vice presidential candidates and Senate seats. Referendums regarding a new $16 million campus recreation center; a zero-tolerance policy for hate crimes and sexual assault at the University of Kansas; and a joint citywide public transportation system between KU On Wheels and the City of Lawrence also will be on the ballot.
Jennifer Watkins, elections commissioner, said that she hoped for better voter turnout this year compared with last year's 19 percent but that the weather forecast was reason for pessimism.
"It's a disappointment," she said. "It's pretty much a given that when it's rainy, voter turnout decreases."
Watkins said that if the sun were to come out, more students would vote this year because of the coalitions' campaign platforms and election strategies.
If voter turnout today and tomorrow remains stable, it will be one of the highest turnouts in the past 10 years when only two coalitions have been on the ballot. In 1997, campaign issues such as campus safety, parking, enrollment, improvements to Robinson Center and fall break drew 15 percent of students to vote. In 1990, with five coalitions on the ballot, 23 percent of
the student body voted.
Amanda Weinberg, elections commission chairwoman, said she thought more students would vote this year despite the weather because of the three controversial referendums on the ballot. Also, she said, unlike past years, the candidates this year highlighted the differences between their coalitions.
said. "A lot of literature has been handed out, and there are conflicting stories about the recreation center."
Paul Schumaker, chairman of the political science department, said he was not sure why voter turnout in Student Senate elections was lower than turnout in city, state and federal races. "I imagine that it's because the stakes are less," he said.
"Anything over 19 percent will be good," Weinberg
Voter turnout is usually about 25 percent in Lawrence's general elections, a little less than 50 percent in Kansas elections and a little more than 50 percent in national elections.

Students remember Holocaust horror in the Kansas Union
By Dan Curry
It was terribly simple.

Jews wore yellow, Jehovah's Witnesses wore purple, homosexuals wore pink, gypsies brown and criminals green stars for Jews and triangles for the rest.
That's how Nazi soldiers differentiated between those who lived and the 11 million who died in their death camps, said Allison Hammer, St. Louis. Mo., sophomore.
Hammer was one of the KU Hillel members who helped students remember the horror of the Holocaust yesterday during Yom Hashoah, or Holocaust Remembrance Day.
Students cut out yellow stars from felt, drew pictures and pinned on ribbons at a table inside the Kansas Union.
Lindsay Striker, Minneapolis freshman, said she never had celebrated Holocaust Remembrance Day at a university setting.
"It's good because so many people can be here," Striker
Dana Blecher, Steinhardt Fellow and KU graduate, said that Hillel wanted people to leave the table feeling positive, rather than oppressed.
Memorial candles were on the table in the Union, but they were unlit because of fire codes.
"We know it's emotional," Hammer said. "People can express their emotions creatively here."
Elsewhere, they burn all day, Hammer said. Candles would be lit and placed in the death camps to remember individuals who died.
"The motto of the day is "Remember." Hammer said.
Color code
Nazi soldiers used these color codes to distinguish the different groups of people that lived in the Nazi death camps of World War II. Stars were used for Jewish prisoners, while triangles were used for everyone else.

said. "Not just Jewish people but people from all different backgrounds."
They're taking steps to keep another holocaust from happening.
Teri Levich, Wichita junior, said the Jewish Student Council was sponsoring a clothing drive to aid the ethnic Albanians in Kosovo.
"What's happening now in Kosovo is similar to what happened during the Holocaust," Levich said.
She said the council would contact the Salvation Army and the Red Cross about delivering the clothing.

Clothing of all types can be dropped off at the Hillel Office in the Kansas Union, Zeta Beta Tau and Alpha Epsilon Pi fraternities and the Sigma Delta Tau sorority, Levich said.
Senators say bickering can distract from goals
By Nadia Mustafa
nmusfa@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
Although most of its members admit Student Senate often falls victim to partisan bickering and a lack of student outreach, they are adamant that Senate is an important and effective body at the University of Kansas.
During the past five years, Senate has implemented many structural and procedural reforms to ensure a quasil-system of checks and balances. It also has continued to pass legislation that improves the lives of students, despite its rank compared to the administration — in the University hierar-
chv.
Deidre Backs, off-campus senator, said that reforms during the past two years have ensured that one coalition did not control Senate.
As an example, she cited a change this year in which standing committee members, who had been present at the three meetings before elections, could vote for next year's committee heads. She said the policy prevented inactive members from swaying the vote on a partisan basis.
Holly Krebs, holdover senator, said one non-legislative reform was that many senators had tried to break down partisan walls outside of campaign season.

"Senators have made a big effort to bridge the gap despite partisan or ideological differences," she said.
Kevin Yode president, listed several actions Senate had taken during past years to police itself. He noted the addition of
multicultural senatorial seats to maintain diversity and legislation that created a student judicial board to hear complaints from student organizations and Senate. The board has not yet been implemented.
He said that Senate gradually
has decreased the student body president's authority by requiring that he or she select executive staff positions from a pool of applicants chosen by an advisory committee.
Also, Yoder said, Senate has made changes to the process of funding student organizations. Previously, organizations could request funds at Senate meetings. Now, organizations that already have received funds must apply to the Finance Committee for line-item funding.
"It's more standardized, and Senate does not spend all day looking at funding for stamps," he said. "This way, groups get a fair shake."

LAWRENCE Preliminary hearing date for KU employee changed
The preliminary hearing for Constance Conboy, a secretary in the Office of Minority Affairs who is facing four counts of theft and two counts of criminal use of a financial card, was continued until 1:45 p.m. May 11 in the Division I district courtroom at the Law Enforcement Center, 111 E. 11th St.
The date of the hearing was changed because Conboy's attorney had not been able to review reports from the KU Public Safety Office on the investigation of the embezzlements.
The funds originally were reported missing Feb. 5 by Shenwood Thompson, director of minority affairs. The theft occurred between May 7, 1997, and Sept. 18, 1998.
Conboy is on leave without pay until the case is decided by the court.

His bond on the recent charges was set at $75,000.

Albania claims Serbs captured Albanian village
BELGRADE, Yugoslavia — Serb forces crossed into northern Albania today and briefly captured a border village. Albanian officials said hours after NATO aircraft hit Yugoslavia's biggest oil refinery in hopes of crippling the Yugoslav war machine.
Serb infantry troops exchanged gunfire with Albanian border police and seized control of Kamenica, Albania's interior minister Petro Koci said, before withdrawing later in the day. Houses were reported on fire about a mile inside northeastern Albania, but there was no word on casualties.
Yugoslavia denied any of its forces entered Albania, saying there was no incursion.
"It's exactly the opposite," Nebojsa Vujovic of the Yugoslav Foreign Ministry told CNN today, saying Albanian forces had crossed into Serb territory and that Serbs were defending their boundaries. In reaction to the reports, the State Department warned the Yugoslavs not to widen the war.
Artan Jakupi, a translator with the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe, which monitors the border area, saw his own house and a cluster of others in Kamenica burning from a distance.
More than 300,000 Kosovo refugees have fled to Albania since last month. NATO has taken over the country's airfields, airspace and military infrastructure during its drive to aid the Kosovar refugees in Albania and for its military campaign against Yugoslav President Slobodan Milosevic.

Senators urge student feedback
Continued from page 1A
Senate sometimes legally suspends its rules and regulations to pass specific legislation or to take certain actions, but Yoder said that Senate followed through with its regulations fairly often. He said he did not like the idea of suspending the rules.
"I'm against it because the reason we have rules and regulations is so that people follow them," he said. "Suspending them takes away their importance."
Krebs, holdover senator, said Senate had a tendency to side with tradition instead of regulations.
Partha Mazumdar, graduate senator, however, said Senate always adhered to its rules because recent Senate executive chairs had made sure Senate retained its integrity. But, he said, senators often disagreed about legislation.
"The election sets the tone for the next year," Mazumdar said. "If the election is clean, next year's Senate is clean. If the election is dirty, senators hate each other."
Yoder agreed that infighting often occurred within Senate.
"It's one of the things that gives Senate a bad name
within the student body," he said. "Infighting and politics is a lot of what goes on around here. It's pretty sad."
Backs said that senators worked well together during the fall but that tensions rose second semester during campaign time.
She said even if she wasn't graduating this year, she would not run for Senate next year because it was plagued with infighting.
Backs cited a meeting earlier this semester in which many senators felt pressured in voting to pay for a Webmaster for Greeks Achieving Leadership Experience, a newsletter serving the greek community. She said they feared senators who supported financing GALE would cut funding for the Kaw Valley Independent if the bill failed.
Krebs said because ideological differences created healthy debate, Senate had done a good job this year. She said that Senate voiced students' concerns to the administration but that it was not always as effective as it could be.
Mazumdar said Senate had the potential to accomplish a lot.
It's not just building buildings, but setting the
tone for what kind of educational opportunities students will have," Mazumdar said.
Although many senators perceive that the administration is a restrictive force, Mazumdar said that it wasn't.
"If we do something wholeheartedly that the administration disagreed with, they wouldn't stop us," he said.
Backs said that issues such as online enrollment and decreasing tuition arose from students' concerns but that those types of initiatives moved slowly.
Backs said she was frustrated with students' apathy and ignorance when she realized how powerful Senate was.
"Any problems that students have can be solved through Senate," she said. "Yet when students look at Senate, they see a bunch of future politicians — which it mostly is."
Krebs stressed that the relationship between Senate and students was not a oneway street. She said that senators must reach out to students, but also that students must communicate with senators.

Complaint targets rec center fliers
Task force claims ads misled KU students
By Nadia Mustafa
nmustafa@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Delta Force members defended their anti-recreation center campaign literature yesterday against allegations that the information they were distributing to students on campus was misleading.
Kevin Yoder, student body president and recreation task force chairman, and Scott Kaiser, student body vice president and recreation task force vice chairman, filed a complaint to the elections commission last night that Delta Force's campaign against the task force's proposal for a new $16 million campus recreation center was inaccurate and misleading.
Kaiser said he was not sure which specific rule Delta Force had violated.
Jennifer Watkins, elections commissioner, also was unsure last night about which rule the complaint would fall under. She said that she didn't have a copy of the elections code with her but that she
thought the complaint was an attempt to influence the outcome of an election by means of fraud.
Kaiser said the task force was tired of fighting with Delta Force's "lies."
"We deal with handbills everyday that are a major distortion of the truth," he said. "We're tired of them ignoring the information they were provided. The impact that they have on the referendum is that they're swaying a lot of students who would have originally voted for the proposal against it based on bad information."
Erin Simpson, Delta Force candidate for College of Liberal Arts and Sciences senator, said the complaint was frivolous.
"This is a purely political maneuver designed to distract Delta Force and the electorate the day before elections," she said.
Kaiser said he and Yoder had not intentionally waited until the night before elections to file the complaint.
"This is not political in the sense that we're trying to make Delta Force look bad," he said. "We just wanted to see more incidents of it and make sure we had enough evidence."
In the complaint, Kaiser included a two-week old Delta Force flyer that said that if the recreation center referendum passed, Robinson Center would close. The flyer also said that students would be left with only four junior high-size basketball courts.
Another flyer that Delta Force began distributing yesterday said, "Your student fees will be raised by $100 a year to pay for a new recreation center that is even smaller than Robinson."
Kaiser said that Delta Force possessed task force documents that contradicted the information on the coalition's flyers.
Kaiser cited an April 6 letter from Provost David Shulenburger that affirmed students would continue to have access to Robinson if a new center were built and said that Delta Force had no evidence to the contrary. Also, Kaiser said the task force's architectural plan stated that the new center would provide full-size courts.
In addition, Kaiser said, student fees would be raised by $98 a year, not $100. He said that the $2 difference was substantial because an annual $2 fee generated $90,000. He said the flyer implicitly stated that
all of the students' fees would increase by $100 next year, which was not true. Fees would increase by $30 during 2000-2001 and by $98 during 2001-2002.
Seth Hoffman, Delta Force candidate for student body president, said the first flyer was printed before Shulenburger wrote the letter. Nonetheless, he said, he still did not think Robinson would remain open. He said the task force cited information from Karen Gallagher, dean of education, saying there was a trend toward complete academic use of the building if a new center were built.
"We do all we can to make sure students get the whole story," Hoffman said. "Everything that was there when we printed it we thought was true."
Hoffman said the task force's materials included recommendations by its consulting firm that the new center should include smaller basketball courts.
The commission will begin its investigation today and will conduct a closed hearing at 7:30 p.m. Monday at the International Room in the Kansas Union.

Lecture spotlights Tutu's contributions to peace
by Jamie Knodel
jknodel@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
In less than a week, highly esteemed Nobel Peace Prize winner Archbishop Desmond Tutu will speak at the University of Kansas, and several campus organizations are helping students get ready for the event.
Yesterday more than 50 people attended a brown-bag lecture and discussed Tutu's achievements and political contributions. The event was sponsored by the African Studies and Langston Hughes centers, the department of religious studies and SUA.
Robert Shelton, professor of religious studies, said Tutu had been vocal in ending apartheid because he lived and experienced the effects of the segregation first hand.
Tutu worked in South Africa as a high school teacher, preacher and teacher
Anglican church official. While serving these various positions, Tutu shared his anti-apartheid beliefs.
"In 1957, Tutu resigned his teaching post in protest when the state dictated lower standards of education for blacks." Shelton said
He also said Tutu used peaceful means to spread his views of freedom.
Shelton said although Tutu was very successful, he had many obstacles to overcome.
"He was elected to be a leader in the Church of England in South Africa, although he had to get special permission to get inside the church because he was black," he said.
John Janzen, professor of anthropology and director of the African studies center, said Tutu tried to push the government as far as possible.
"He was trying to get banned,to be more powerful," he said.
never banned Tutu.
The South African government
In 1984, Tutu received the Nobel Peace Prize for his contribution to the cause of racial justice in South Africa.
In the following years, he continued to work for improved race relations. He was elected to serve as the Bishop of Johannesburg and later as Archbishop of Capetown.
Shelton said serving in these elected positions was impressive because the Church of England in Africa had a predominately white membership.
In December 1995, President Nelson Mandela appointed Tutu as the Chairman of the Truth and Reconciliation Committee.
Shelton said the committee's primary concern was to mend relations throughout South Africa.
They saw the only way for reconciliation was to hear the truth about what had happened during the years of apartheid," he said.
In 1996, Tutu retired from his office as Archbishop of Capetown and is now the Chancellor of the University of Western Cape.
Organizers said they thought the lecture was important because knowledge of Tutu's background was vital to understanding the leader's address.
"It may be that some of these issues have faded from people's memories a bit," said Cody Simms, SUA forums coordinator.
Matt Haug, Topeka junior, said he attended the event to become familiar with the leader's achievements.
"The issues he dealt with are universal problems of freedom and justice," he said. "We can gain a lot from him and learn how to deal with race relations in our own country.
Tickets are still available for the 7 p.m. April 18 lecture at the SUA box office.

Yoder: Editorial board's recreation stance faulty
I am very disappointed about yesterday's editorial "Recreation Pitch Deserves 'No' Vote." The article claims that the proposal "reeks of misleading writing and gaping holes," but not once does it identify these supposed holes.
There are several facts in the article that support a YES vote for a new recreation facility. The editorial correctly states that Robinson is aging and that "students pay the price for its inadequate size." It also makes the point that the current proposal calls for a $49 per semester fee compared to the 1996 proposal of $90 per semester. Since students can use Robinson only when the facility is not used for classes, the editorial correctly states that KU students get just 54 hours per week compared to the 99 hours at other Big 12 schools. Then, the editorial states that 61 percent of students use Robinson once a week and that 50 percent of these people didn't have time or interest. This is because Robinson is closed during the day for classes.
Students have given up on the University, opting for private health clubs costing $300 per year. The editorial notes that there is "no guarantee that Robinson would remain available to students." This is the reason that a new recreation center should be built. As the University continues to convert Robinson to classroom space, many more students will be turned away.
The editorial notes the proposal calls for the third highest fee and the University of Kansas would still be last in the Big 12. This simply isn't true. The combined square footages of both facilities put us in the middle of the pack for the Big 12. With respect to fees, I would remind you that what you get is what you pay for: Every square foot of construction costs a certain amount. If you want a facility bigger than what the plan calls for, then our fee would be even higher, further fueling your arguments.
The editorial cites the survey stating that 83.8 percent of students are satisfied with Robinson. The survey wasn't referring to student satisfaction with Robinson. It was referring to services and activities within Robinson. A
closer reading of the survey also shows that 67 percent of the respondents said improvements to our facilities should be a priority for the University. The survey also shows that 90 percent of the respondents indicated that they would be willing to pay a fee increase ranging from $30 to $60 for recreation improvements.
Robinson will remain open. It will not close. No one from the University has ever stated it will close. In fact, they have made statements to the contrary. The Provost has made a written statement that clearly indicates the University's stance on this issue: "The question has arisen whether students will continue to have access to the recreational facilities if a new recreational center is built. The answer is clearly 'yes.' Robinson is now and will be for academic endeavors, but I see no reason why less access would be available if you build a new center. Basketball courts, the swimming pool, etc. will continue to be available for students."
The editorial goes on to state that the proposal doesn't include operational costs. This is also a false statement. The proposal actually includes costs to build, run, and maintain the new facility as well as continue to support Robinson's nighttime operations. As far as "renovation costs" are concerned, I'm not sure what the editorial is referring to. Renovating Robinson for classes would be a poor use of student fee dollars.
As for the idea concerning an addition: Some simple research, which we have done, will illustrate that an addition to Robinson is not a sound remedy to the current situation. The current Dean of Education is against an addition. Robinson is an academic building and expanding it for recreation would be logistically difficult. We have obtained architectural plans describing what the space next to Robinson will be used for in the future. Further, we did include a question on our survey about an addition versus a new facility. Around 70 percent of the respondents selected the new facility over an addition.
In short, the editorial in Tuesday's edition of the Kansan viciously and falsely attacked a well-researched proposal. Perhaps its authors read a different proposal — a political one, made by Delta Force members for an election. Small wonder that even Delta Force members, such as Maria Abatjoglou, are in favor of a new facility, founded on sound research, planning, and student input.
The editorial board has a significant amount of influence over student opinion. When they print editorials that reek of misleading information, they are doing a horrible disservice to the student body. Students are being deprived of the truth on the recreation issue and are being taught that someone will swoop in with a better plan in the fall if they vote 'no'. In the end, the student body is the group that will lose because of the editorial board's misguidance.

Downbeat writing spoils Student Senate focus
1 eagerly awaited the first day of the Kansan's coverage of student government with Ryan Koerner's promise of "defending voter turnout and pleasant campaigning, the next four days will focus on Student Senate elections."
So on Friday, I opened the Kansan, and turned to page three and found two columns on why Senate is boring and campaigns inconsequential. My high school friend and person that I often bounce ideas off of, Andrew Marino, tells me of the "debatable value in student government." Not much of a start for a newspaper branding a goal "to offer insightful, researched articles about the candidates and the issues."
Even the zany antics of Nick Bartkoski calmed down enough to reduce student votes as simply wrong, preaching that "based on their performances, Maxwell and Seibel are going to win, and that's too bad because Hoffman and Liu are probably the better choice." I wonder if Nick would bellittle the decision of the voting Jayhawks so much if his sister Katie — who is running with Delta Force — won her Senate bid.

We will change the way Student Senate allocates money to student organizations, making it not only easier but more ethical. We will advocate for responsible University investing so that the money that the KU Endowment Association invests in your name does not get funnelled into amoral corporations that abuse and exploit their employees.
Speaking of exploited employees, we will work to build a collegial relationship between the graduate teaching assistants union and the University administration. We also will labor for increased campus safety, and because we believe in building community not authority, we will work for a student-run Safewalk program that will augment the public safety office the University already has.
The editorial board also called us "representatives of student groups that have not led Senate for several years." We are not defensive about any of these statements. We are proud of where we live and content that we have not been in the charge of Senate for the past several years—and we would like to know what the editorial board was smoking before it decided that neither SenEx was important nor a University leadership organization.
Granted, the coalition we represent has not been in control of Senate, but that is why we're having an election today. The editorial board dismissed us simply as a Pearson Scholarship Hall resident and a McCollum resident and not the proven leaders that we are.
And, no matter what the Kansan editorial board may believe, we both have the ability to accomplish all of what we have set out. This is Seth Hoffman's third year on Senate, and this year he is the vice-chair of SenEx, the highest body in the University governance system. This is Mary Liu's first year on Senate, and she has been a vice president of the Association of University Residence Halls for two and a half years.
Delta Force has indeed accomplished more on this campus the past two years than Senate, and if we are elected, we will bring the energy and dedication of ourselves and the rest of Delta Force to Student Senate and actually have the elected student government work for the students.
dents at the University and has remained organized for three years now to ensure that students know that we work for and keep our promises. If we were to change our name, it would be easy to walk away from the promises we've made.
After saying all of this, it is important to remember that Delta Force remains accountable for the issues it brings up during campaigns. Senate coalitions usually disband after elections, having served their purpose of getting their candidates elected. That makes it easy to ignore all the promises they made during the campaign season. They expect students to forget what they said simply because they have changed their name.
Indecision sells students short. Delta Force believes that campaigning is more than just getting votes. Our members aren't afraid to take a stand on issues that really matter to the student body. We have never hidden behind campaign rhetoric just to get elected — we stand up for what we believe in.
Delta Force has made a commitment to stu

YOU promises to place students' concerns first
The YOU coalition brings fresh ideas and new people to Student Senate. We came together in October on the premise that student concerns were being neglected.
The University of Kansas has marginalized the interests of students too often, and student voices have been excluded on many important issues. We decided that we wanted to put YOU, the students and your concerns, back into the University of Kansas.

The YOU coalition includes 61 candidates who represent various campus organizations, living organizations and backgrounds. Just as the KU student body includes students from all walks of life, so does the YOU coalition. We pride ourselves on the diversity of our candidates and the genuine concern they have for improving the University.

This campaign began by surveying students on the issues they felt were the most important in
A primary concern for students is the idea that their tuition is rising at an overwhelming rate. After researching this issue, we discovered that since 1980, tuition has risen 410 percent for resident students and 580 percent for out-of-state students. Because of a decline in state support, the YOU coalition thinks that these numbers are too high and will continue to increase without heavy lobbying efforts on behalf of the students.
the most important their daily lives. After compiling these results, we formed our platform issues. All of our issues are based on the fact that students care about them. The foundation of this coalition is student opinion. YOU seeks to continue this effort during the campaign and throughout our time in Student Senate.
In the 1980s, the Board of Regents and the Legislature promised that the state would provide 75 percent of education costs, and students, through their tuition, should pay only 25 percent. Unfortunately, state government has broken that promise to students. The state now pays 56 percent, and students cover 44 percent.
If elected, the YOU coalition will lobby the
We will work to prevent the overselling of parking passes, increase student parking in the new Kansas Union garage and strengthen student representation in the parking department. These solutions will alleviate many of the parking concerns on campus.
Finally, the YOU coalition feels that safety should be a priority at the University. Past safety efforts have been focused on single issues. YOU believes that these "Band-Aid" approaches to safety ignore the fact that total campus safety requires a multifaceted approach. Safety can be solved only through a comprehensive plan.
YOU plans to increase lighting and blue phones on campus, expand the current Saferide system, implement a Safewalk program, allow 24-hour access to campus buildings and redistribute campus public safety officers during night hours. With these efforts, the University can build a better sense of community and will have greater resources for a safer campus.
Additionally, students are concerned about their academic success. Many other universities — including Kansas State, Johnson County Community College, Oklahoma, Iowa and even Harvard — allow their students to retake a class and substitute the second grade for the first in their GPA.
Another concern is transportation and parking. Lawrence does not have a citywide transportation system. The YOU coalition will work to create a citywide bus system that can give students extra mobility throughout the city of Lawrence.
Legislature to freeze tuition rates, increase the amount of state funding and return to the 75-25, cost/fee ratio.
We encourage you to look at our issues and meet our candidates. We feel that students should be the first priority here, and we want to make improvements to the University that involve YOU and improve the quality of student life at the University for YOU. We urge you to vote for student representation, diversity, leadership and experience. Today and tomorrow, cast a vote for YOU.
Unfortunately, when a KU student retakes a class, both of the grades are figured into the GPA. YOU feels that KU students can be more competitive in the job market, with scholarships, and in graduate school admissions if they are allowed to replace their poor grades.

When most people look in the mirror in the morning, they see themselves as either a man or a woman, black or white, gay or straight. Author and transsexual activist Riki Anne Wilchins would like people to question the value placed on these categories in our society.
"You have to be one or the other, everybody knows that," Wilchins said of Western societal views of gender. "I didn't seem to fit into any of these categories. Maybe the problem isn't me, maybe it's the category."
Wilchins, author of "Read My Lips: Sexual Subversion and the End of Gender" and the executive director of GenderPAC, a group that works for gender, affectional and racial equality, spoke last night at the Pine Room in the Kansas Union as part of KU Queers and Allies pride week.
Wilhins said that in the efforts of Western society to find one common truth in all things, people who do not fit the strict confines of those definitions or categories are left out. The need to define every person as male or female did not fit with the views Wilhins had of the person she was.
These categories, she said, limited the ways in which people were allowed to define themselves, a problem Wilchins saw when asked to define herself.
"I also knew that if I looked it up in the dictionary under 'W,' I was not going to see a picture of someone who looked like me," Wilchins said. "No matter what was in the category of woman, I was not an example of that."
"If you can get someone to think of themselves as a homosexual or transgendered person, you have achieved a tremendous amount of control over them with very little effort, and it's self-sustaining because they now see that in the mirror," Wilchins said. "Once they see that in the mirror, you don't need to beat them up and throw them in prison to take away their civil rights. All you have to do is to perpetuate the fact that this is who I am inside and this creates a tremendous amount of conflict for some people."
Wilchins said some categories
One outcome of the effort to strictly categorize people is the ability to control them, Wilchins said. She said that by forcing someone to see themselves as a member of a certain category, you could affect their opinion of themselves.
could help define who we were to some extent but when the categories were applied indiscriminately, they oppressed people. Rather than organize themselves around identities, people should organize themselves around common goals, she said.
"You're asking people to question the most basic ways we have of dealing with the world," Wilchins said. Co-coordinators of pride week, Corrina Beck, Kansas City, Mo., senior, and Jack Shay, Lawrence resident, said they had enjoyed Wilchins' speech.
Shay said he thought Wilchins' speech would have been beneficial for people who had bad problems knowing how to classify themselves.
"I think it was a good choice for Q&A to have her come speak," Shay said.

Finance assistant director gets honor
Quisenberry receives Ally award for sensitivity to gay community
By Clay McCuistion Special to the Kansan
Quisenberry, assistant director for finance in the Organizations and Leadership Center, received the second Ally award presented by the les/bi/gay/trans liaison's office and Quers and Allies.
Last night Aaron Quisenberry was honored with a triangular plaque and rocketship-shaped salt-and-pepper shakers.
The award honors a KU student, staff member or faculty member who shows sensitivity and care for the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgendered community. The plaque and shakers were presented at a lecture by transsexual author and activist Riki Anne Wilchins at the Pine Room in the Kansas Union.
The award and lecture were part of Pride Week.
"He's very honored with this and very saddened he couldn't be here," Hardy said of Quisenberry, who had University commitments.
David Hardy accepted the award on behalf of Quisenberry. Hardy works with Quisenberry as the manager of the optional campus fees program and is a doctoral candidate in hisher education.
Lisa Braun, Queers and Allies senator, nominated Quisenberry for the Ally award.
She said the two had in-depth conversations at the January LeaderShape conference.
"He really helped me change a lot of stereotypes I had about masculine men," Braun said. "He's one of the most easy-going, fun-loving, happy-go-lucky guys that I know."
Don Rowland, les/bi/gay/trans liaison for the University, said the award contributed to ongoing dialogue between diverse communities at the University.
Candidates for the award, which is presented each semester, are nominated by students. Those chosen must display a Queers-and-Allies "safe zone" notice in their offices. The names of the seven nominees were put in a box, and Quisenberry was chosen at random.
"We are not just a community of needs," said Rowland. "We also have talents, gifts and thanks to offer and share with everyone."
REVO Sunglasses
"We do that because we can't pick one ally over another by looking at the nominator's writing style," said Rowland. "Everyone's a winner because they're an ally."
Last semester's winner was Danny Kaiser, Organizations and Leadership Center director.
Quisenberry will receive a triangular plaque with an 'A' in the center, made by by Mark Sandercock of Luster Furniture Design in Lawrence, and the rocketship-shaped salt and pepper shakers from Blue Heron Home Furnishings. 921 Massachusetts St.
The six other nominees will receive certificates of recognition.

Journalism lecturer to take job at LSU
Bill Dickinson, lecturer in journalism, has accepted a position at Louisiana State University.
Dickinson, who has been the Peter and Barbara Macdonald Resident Professional at the School of Journalism since 1991, will become LSU's Manship Chair in Mass Communication next fall.
After the two-year appointment, Dickinson said, he probably would return to |the University of Kansas.
"I've been telling p people that, God willing, I be back in 2002," he said. "I graduated from here, and my heart is here."
and my heart went out to Dickinson graduated with a bachelor's degree in English from the University in 1953.
He is best known as the Editorial Director/General Manager of the Washington Post Writers' Group, a position he held from 1973 to 1991.
George Lockwood, head of the LSU search committee, said Dickinson was selected for the position because he was betterqualified than the other 11 applicants.
The group is primarily used to distribute syndicated columns and cartoons from Pulitzer Prize winners such as David Broder, George F. Will and Berkeley Breathed.
"In every respect, Bill Dickinson is a man of high intelligence, of impeccable credentials and a man of high integrity," he said. "He's a distinguished journalist in every sense of that word."
Dickinson said he had retired when he moved back to Lawrence in 1991, but when he met then-School of Journalism Dean Mike Kautsch, Kautsch convinced him to work for the University.
"Teaching's the hardest thing I've ever done," Dickinson said. "It's not enough to have stories. You have to engage people."
Dickinson said he decided to apply for the LSU position
because he was beginning to feel confidence in his teaching ability, and he wanted to take on something harder.
He learned about the position from Lockwood, who he had worked with before.
Dickinson said that in his new position he would teach two classes instead of one and that he would make "a great deal more" than the $3,000 a semester he is paid here.
Dickinson had taught JOUR 350, Reporting I, since he arrived here.
"I feel that I have the greatest impact upon students when they're new to the school," he said.
It is not yet known who will teach his class next semester.
Mary Wallace, assistant dean of the School of Journalism, said the loss of Dickinson, even if temporary, would be felt by the school.
"What can I say, he's great," she said. "We're sorry he's going to be gone."

Marines win annual ROTC quadrathalon
By Emily Hughey
Kansan sportswriter
The early morning hours were filled with shouts and cheers yesterday in front of Allen Fieldhouse, while members of the Air Force, Army, Marines and Navy competed in the ninth annual ROTC Quadrathlon.
Last year, the Air Force won the event, but yesterday, the Marines defeated the Air Force team by two points.
cles."
The marines said that five eight years ago as a competition run by the Cadre, or the instructors, but it has evolved into a student-run activity that includes the four branches of service. Marine Sgt. Lee Bliss said the competition was something that members of all ROTC groups enjoyed.
"They look forward to it each year," Bliss said. "It's one of those events where the y get together and get to flex their service's mus
The competition has five events. Each branch of service is represented by one event, and a three-mile run also is included.
To achieve maximum performance, the Air Force requires a 104-inch standing long jump, the Army requires 82 push-ups in 2 minutes, the Marines require 20 pull-ups in 2 minutes, and the Navy requires 100 sit-ups in 2 minutes. Whichever service wins the competition is deemed the most physically fit.
Aaron Ludwick, Air Force senior and Quadrathlon coordinator, was the top performer with maximum performance in all five events.
Ludwick said that the Air Force began training for the event in October and that the competition was intense.
"These guys are just giving it all they've got," Ludwick said.
Air Force Col. Kevin McNellis said he was proud of all of the
competitors' efforts.
"You have your service pride, but you have to be proud of all of them," McNellis said.
Although there were no women participating in the competition, Christina Miller. Air Force wing commander, said she tried out to be one of the five competitors but did not make it. However, she said that the physical fitness tests differed between men and women and that she would like to see a separate competition developed for women.
"We'd like to see more women participate because it's not fair," Miller said. "But we make up for a let, not only physically, but in other ways, too."
Miller also said that although she sometimes felt excluded as a woman in the military, she wasn't bitter.
"You're never one of the guys no matter how much you try to be," she said. "But during work time, it's a professional work environment. They don't necessarily promote women. They treat us fairly, which I think is better than promoting them."
Sgt. Michael Mullins, an active-duty Marine, said he volunteered to compete because he wanted to give the Marines extra help.
"I wanted to make sure the Marines had a strong showing against the other branches of service," Mullins said. "Sure enough, the Air Force has a strong team. They're usually not only the underdogs, but they have the most surprises."
McNellis said the Air Force probably would have won if it hadn't been for a disqualification in the push-up competition. In the Army, he said, once a person's hands are placed in push-up position, they cannot be adjusted. However, in the Air Force, readjustment is allowed, and one of the Air Force competitors readjusted his hands and was disqualified.

Commission swears in members, elects mayor
By Heather Woodward
woodward@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Former commissioners Bonnie Augustine, Bob Moody and John Nalbandian took the nameplates that have marked their places through countless meetings off the table last night. Former mayor Marty Kennedy then placed blank nameplates on the commission table in front of the newly elected commissioners.
Last night's Lawrence City Commission meeting was devoted to recognizing the achievements of the three commissioners who did not seek re-election and to initiating new commissioners David Dunfield, Jim Henry and Mike Rundle.
After taking an oath of office, the new commission elected Commissioner Erv Hodges as mayor and Henry as vice mayor.
Hodges listed many of the issues that will come before the new commission in future weeks. Hodges said that public transportation, a wastewater master plan, the capital improvement budget and a Louisiana Street traffic-calming study would be priorities.
"To the new commission, I want to say that we have a lot
of work to do," Hodges said at the meeting. "All I can ask them to do is study and be ready to work really hard, and we will do what is right for Lawrence."
Hodges set May 4 as the date for a goal-planning session for the new commission.
Still adjusting to the view from behind the commission table, Henry said he appreciated the opportunity to serve the community.
"The old commissioners have been wonderful role models," Henry said. "I want to do my very best to measure up to their wonderful work."
Before swapping seats with Hodges, Kennedy said he had enjoyed his one-year term as mayor.
"This has been an exciting year for Marty Kennedy representing the city," Kennedy said. "It was the chance of a lifetime. How many people get a chance to be the mayor or their favorite town?"
Augustine, Moody and Nalbandian, sitting at the front of the room for their final minutes, reflected on their time as commissioners.
"I want to, first off, thank my family," said Moody, who has been in office since 1993. "I couldn't have imagined the sacrifices they would have to make as I engaged in this midlife crisis."
Augustine, who took office in 1995, was visibly moved as she talked about how much she would miss working with city officials.
"When I made the decision months ago to not run for a second term, the consequences of that seemed so far away," Augustine said at the meeting. "I didn't realize how much I would miss everyone. You've all been such a constant in my life."
After stepping down, Nalbandian, who took office in 1991 and is a KU professor of public administration, said he was a little sad.
"It's closing a period of time," Nalbandian said. "I think about what I'm losing and how this has been a part of my life for eight years, and now it's over in one day."
City Manager Mike Wildgen presented the three commissioners with "Great Moments in Public Service" awards, which represented a pinnacle achievement during each of their terms.
"I want to show my appreciation for being able to work with such an excellent commission," Wildgen said. "I think we've gotten a lot done with this group, and I hope it's been a two-way street."
ROTC teacher investigated by U.S. Army
Edited by Keith Burner
By Jennifer Roush
jroush@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
The U.S. Army is investigating an alleged improper relationship between an officer who was teaching KU Army ROTC classes and one of his students, a female cadet.
Steven Ferrell, a captain in the Kansas Army National Guard and adjunct instructor of military science at the University of Kansas for about one year, was transferred to National Guard headquarters in Topeka on Feb. 8 pending the investigation results.
In a statement released Thursday, Lt. Col. Anthony Gasbarre, commander of KU Army ROTC, said the investigation centered on U.S. Army and KU policies regarding faculty-student relationships.
He could not comment, however, about what offense Ferrell was accused of or how the complaint originated.
"While there is an ongoing investigation, it would be inappropriate to comment further," Gasbarre said.
Gasbarre also could not comment about the female cadet.
A pamphlet published by the Office of the Provost says that consenting relationships between faculty and students at the University are not expressly forbidden. Such relationships, however, are strongly discouraged in cases where the faculty member holds power over the student.
Gasbarre said that U.S. Army policy prohibited personal relationships between ROTC students or cadets and their superior officers. This includes, but is not limited to, dating and romantic or sexual relationships, he said.
Lt. Col. Joy Moser, public affairs officer for the adjutant general, said Ferrell had been reassigned to a full-time administrative position in the National Guard's educational services office.
She also said that the military's reluctance to comment publicly on Ferrell's transfer was in the interest of fairness to all parties involved.
"When there's an investigation like this, generally we don't talk about it." Moser said. "We don't want to unfairly prejudice it either way. Our whole idea is that you are innocent until proven guilty in the United States of America."
Moser said that U.S. Army investigators were handling Ferrell's case and that the investigation was ongoing.
"This is a long process, and as soon as the investigation is complete, we'll be happy to release a statement," she said.

CONSTRUCTIVE CRITICISM
A University of Kansas professor and students have built several industrial-style homes around Lawrence, but not everyone appreciates the variety.

Marc Epard, Lawrence resident, commissioned Rockhill to build his home at 1629 Hillcrest Rd.
story by derek prater $ ^{ \circ} $ photos by augustus anthony piazza
t was a cold, gray Kansas morning at an east Lawrence construction site. A significant hole had been gouged in the earth and a concrete foundation poured within. The unturned dirt
foundation poured within. The uplifted unity scattered stacks of wood, and cacophony of hammers and saws characterized a typical construction setting. The faces of the workers, however, revealed something different.
They weren't weathered from long hours in the sun; they weren't all bearded; the majority of them weren't male. But then, Dan Rockhill's projects have a reputation for the unconventional, and as he supervised his students, it was evident his latest project would be no exception.
Rockhill, professor of architecture, has been teaching in Lawrence since 1980. During the years, his 24 to 30 projects around the area have raised eyebrows and, at times, vehement protests.
Against the scream of a circular saw and the intermittent thuds of hammers, Rockhill talked about his inspirations, the attention his projects have drawn and his approach to teaching.
"I'm not aware of any other architects that really do their own building to the extent to which we do it, and as a result I think the buildings look different." Rockhill said.
It doesn't require a house number to locate Rockhill's homes in Lawrence. Formidable masses of stone wall, galvanized steel awnings and unconventional lines make Rockhill's homes stand out in the neighborhoods. Rockhill attributes this uniqueness to his use of different materials and the autonomy of building his own projects.
Rockhill, whose graying hair and lined visage reflect his years of experience, finds his inspirations in the search for something novel while reflecting on the regional character of Kansas.
Marc Epard, who commissioned Rockhill and Associates to build his home at 1629 Hillcrest, said that he and his wife, Kathy Porsch, were both raised on farms and that they enjoyed the rural inspiration of their home as well as the use of native limestone.
Rockhill said he viewed the unselfconscious designs of agricultural and industrial buildings as a framework from which he could derive domestic concepts that capture a sense of the area.
"Kansas has a regionalism that is something free for creative architects to try and derive an architecture from, and I think that's important because it helps capture some of the area," Rockhill said.
Some of the people who live near Rockhill's homes don't appreciate the uniqueness of the designs or their sense of regionalism, however.
"I it's ugly; I just don't like his stuff," said Gaby Holcomb, who lives near a Rockhill design at 933 Pennsylvania St. "It's very industrial looking, and this is not an industrial zone."
Holcomb's sentiments have been echoed in several neighborhoods where Rockhill's designs have been built. Residents have expressed concerns that the designs compromise the homogeneity of the neighborhoods.
As far as property values are concerned, Douglas County Appraiser Marion Johnson said that, to his knowledge, nothing indicates that Rockhill's projects have affected sales in those areas.
Nonetheless, critics have continued to show their disapproval. Roger Shimomura lives in a home designed by Rockhill and Associates at 1424 Wagon Wheel Road. His home has been the target of more hostile criticism.
Shimomura, distinguished professor of art, said his home has been spray painted and egged. And three months ago, his mailbox was cut down with a pipe cutter.
Despite the negative reactions, Shimomura said that he and his wife, Janet Davidson-Hues, loved the house and were not surprised by the negativity.
"While the building was going up, people were screaming obscenities at the workers," Shimomura said.
"They do have a tendency to sit up the hornet's nest whenever they can." Rockhill said. "If you're going to do things different, then you better get prepared for people to not openly embrace it."
Rockhill said that during the years he had become numb to the criticism and the local media's attention on negative reactions to his work.
“It’s no different than putting art work out there that people don’t like.” Shimomura said.
Rockhill said he felt that part of the reason his work faced criticism at the local level was that people tended to have a rigid view of domestic architecture.
CRAFTSMAN
"Everybody's an expert," Rockhill said. "That's the problem, because everybody lives in a home."
On the other hand, Rockhill has been bolstered by support from local allies and recognition from prestigious national sources.
Rockhill said that he had been fortunate to have the support of his associate and collaborator David Sain, and John Gaunt, dean of architecture and urban design. Their support has helped Rockhill look past the criticism and achieve success.
Eardand Porsch's home was featured in an article in Architecture magazine that referred to Rockhill's new houses as "intelligent responses to Kansas's inspirational farm machinery." The house also was featured on Home and Garden Television's "Extreme Homes."
The house at 933 Pennsylvania St., which is a student project finished last year, placed second in the 1998 Global Home Competition directed by the Structural Board Association.
The student projects are innovative not only in

their designs, but also in the method of teaching architecture and design. Studio 804 is the graduate level course Rockhill teaches where the students actually construct a building they design.
She said that students would be working 10- to 12-hour days, six days a week to finish the project. "It's a great educational opportunity for us," Albrecht said.
Rockhill said that the student projects were financed with community development block-grant money, which was available to most cities that apply for it.
He said that Studio 804 could become a model for architecture schools around the country. For his part, Rockhill pledged to continue to build and continue looking for something different. His favorite projects are always on the horizon.
'The best one is always the one we're starting now,' he said.

Lineman excels in spring after season as redshirt

By Michael Rigg sports@kansan.com Kansan sportwriter
John Oddonetto's hype was almost as large as his 6-foot-5, 285-pound frame.
After coming to Kansas in January 1998 as a junior college transfer, Oddonetto, an offensive guard, continued to dominate last year's spring drills and was listed with the first team on the depth chart for this fall.
So you can imagine how disappointed Oddonetto was when he learned he would redshirt last season.
"Last year was a hard year," admitted Oddonetto.
Oddonetto said he didn't have an ample enough understanding of the offense to play well.
"Things just didn't mesh very well." Oddonetto said.
Oddonetto had been a three-sport star in high school. Having to run plays in practice with the scout team instead of the first team bothered him immensely.
"It was hard to accept the fact that I was going to redshirt," Oddonetto said. "It was pretty hard practicing with the soot team, but I learned from it."
Oddnetetto took this newfound knowledge and used the time off to learn the offense. He also took the offseason to add another 25 pounds of muscle. Entering his second spring with the Jayhawks, it's an entirely different ball game, he said.
“It’s a whole new world now,” Oddonetto said. “I think (redshirting) was a good move. It gave me a year to grow, and everything with the offense is a totally clear picture.”
His play this spring has won him a spot on the first team and praise from Allen.
"The guy who has played the best in the first two weeks of spring practice has been John Oddonetto," Allen said. "He's really demonstrated his ability and the things that excited us when we recruited him."
Now, instead of focusing on running the opponent's offense with the scout team, Oddonetto is intent on filling a hole that three graduating seniors left on the offensive line.
"It might look like we're inexperienced as far as guys who have started a
lot of games, but the group we have right now works real well together," Oddonetto said. "I feel confident in us."
As for the hype, Oddonetto said he thought the redshirt season could help him be better than expected.
"I didn't expect to redshirt coming here, but the coaches asked me to and I
did, and it really paid off," Oddonetto said.
Spring Football Notes
- Inclement weather was enough of a concern for the team to call off practice yesterday. The Jayhawks have 11 more days before the spring game on April 24.

The Kansas men's racquetball club team finished 11th at the Intercollegiate National Championships this past weekend at Texas A&M University. Not bad for a squad of seven with a limited budget.
They came, they saw and they conquered. Well, almost, but they came pretty close.
The club's small budget only would have allowed four members to attend, even following a home tournament fund-raiser. It took former racquetball club president Lou Montulli's donation to make the trip possible for all seven.
"That was our savior. We just wouldn't have had the money to send them if it weren't for him," club president Clark Langemeier said. "He was kind enough to donate $1,500, part of which was to be used for Nationalals."
Montulli got his money's worth out of his donation.
All members of the team
took individual medals in their respective divisions. Gold medals were earned by Marco Cobb (Division 1 Red), Shawn Muller (Division 4 Red) and Daniel Barrientes (Division 5 White). Aron Levin placed second in Division 2 Blue. Muller (Division 4 Gold) and Don Keefe (Division 6 Gold) each received fourth-place medals.
The Jayhawks were one of only a few teams at nationals who were not varsity teams, which made it even tougher for the team to compete with schools such as national champion Southern Colorado.
In doubles competition, Ivan Coro and Barrientos garnered the consolation gold in Division 3.
schools to play. The competition was very tough, and the No.1 seeds were very competitive." Coro said. On the whole, the team was pleased with how it placed.
"For us it was reaching a goal. We have been thinking about this for a long time, practicing for a long time, done fund-raisers for this and have been thinking about Nationals a lot. When you work this hard, it's rewarding." Cobb said.
"There were very tough
The team thinks its success now will provide some better opportunities for the club in the future.
Robertson hopes to leap from Cagerz to NBA
"Hopefully this is going to help get more support, not only from the University and recreation services, but also on the private circuit. I think it opens a lot of doors for us," Cobb said.
Coro said the team took a lot away from the tournament.
"I think it was a great experience," Coro said. "The team practiced very hard before we went there, and we saw the results in the tournament."

Soon after Bunny Otto learned that her grandson, Ryan Robertson, was drafted by the USBL's Kansas Cagert, she called him.
Bunny and Jim Otto live in Salina, where the Cagerz play. She just wanted to let Robertson know that he could have free room and board if he decided to join the Cagerz.
And, if he did stay with them, that would mean one thing.

"Cinnamon rolls," said Otto, who has missed one of her grandson's games at Allen Fieldhouse during the past four years. "I know he likes them, so maybe that helped him decide."
Robertson, who was drafted as the sixth pick in last Wednesday's draft, decided to play with the Cagerz after a meeting with Kansas coach Roy Williams Thursday. Williams told Robertson that playing in the USBL was a good idea because NBA scouts attended most games. During the 12 years of the league, 120 former USBL players have made it to the NBA.
The Cagerz already have signed former Jayhawk Billy Thomas to a contract, and another former Jayhawk, Sean Pearson, will attend next week's veterans camp in hopes of making the team.
The only potential problem Robertson foresees is his availability during the Cagerz' 26-game season, which runs from April 30 to June 23. Robertson will complete his degree in business administration and
graduate May 23. Also, he plans to attend the NBA's pre-draft camp early June in Chicago.

"I'll miss probably half of their season, but I'm going to play," said Robertson, who would earn $300 a week with the Cagerz. "Now it's up to them if they want me for half a season."
Williams is handling the arrangement between Robertson and the Cagerz. And while it has yet to be set, Cagerz head coach Tom Hughes is willing to do what it takes to get his first-round pick to Salina.
Robertson: Plans to graduate before playing in USBL.
"We know Ryan has a unique situation, and we want him to finish strong academically," said Hughes, who expects an agreement
Robertson also is hopeful to get another opportunity - away from the basketball court.
to be worked out soon. "And we want him to know that when it comes time to go to the Chicago camp, he hops on the plane and goes to Chicago. This league is about exposure, and he can use the Cagerz opportunity as a springboard for his NBA opportunities."
"I haven't talked to my grandparents yet, but I'll stay with them if everything works out," Robertson said. "I'll get to eat my grandma's cinnamon rolls — I love them."

Rec center proposal merits approval
Propaganda can't skew student need for upgrade
Propaganda is my favorite word, and there has been plenty of it surrounding the proposal for a new recreation center, which students will vote on today and tomorrow.
Delta Force members would like you to think that an overwhelming percentage of students do not support an improvement in
I did a semester project on the proposal last fall and have since re-evaluated the situation with leaders on both sides.
The Recreation Task Force has not been totally free of my favorite word either. If you meet one of them, it probably won't take longer than five minutes for him or her to mention K-State's new facility and how it's a tragedy that anything

in that stinky hellhole called Manhattan could possibly be better than what we have on Mt. Oread.
Although friends of mine at K-State are thrilled with their new digs, just because K-State does something does not mean we have to top it.
Again, there's a lot of propaganda coming from both sides, but there is also a fact with which everybody agrees: The University of Kansas has the worst recreation facilities in the Big 12 conference. Although this, by itself, is not substantial reason to finance the world's greatest gym, it is a good way to quantify the problem.
Many opponents say that although KU is definitely in need of a recreation center improvement, the proposal just doesn't cut it.
Let me just come out and tell you that I support building a new recreation center.
The proposal has basketball courts, more space for working out and a track, among other features. We're not going to get what K-State got because it got extremely lucky because bonds for the old recreation center, football stadium and union all retired at the same time, allowing KSU students to just transfer that money into building Peters Complex.
Sure, the Task Force's proposal is not perfect: It would not be the best thing since Allen Fieldhouse. But what are you waiting for? Construction costs go up about 15 percent annually. This means that every year we wait, fees will go up 15 percent more to finance the same facility.
Next is a fear that Robinson would close to students if a new center were built. When I asked Kevin Yoder, student body president, whether Robinson would still be open, he handed me a letter from Provost David Shulenburger, who wrote, "the answer is clearly 'yes' ... if students feel it is worthwhile to incur an additional fee to build a new recreation center, they should feel confident that the University will not reduce their access to existing facilities."
His second point is that students don't want a new center. If that's true, then why would Delta Force be proposing an addition to Robinson? The Task Force paid a firm from Iowa to do a survey, and it found that more than 90 percent of students wanted some sort of improvement and 70 percent wanted a new rec center.
Hess has four beefs. Hess' first argument is money. He said that those who could afford it and want recreation that badly "can and should pay for membership to a health club." But not all of us can afford that. The new building would cost a third of what most health clubs charge.
We can sit around and wait for a rich alumnus to die and give $30 million for a new recreation center, but until that happens, what the Task Force came up with is the best option.
With that in mind, I asked Delta Force member Erin Simpson for the reasons she and her coalition opposed the referendum. She gave me an e-mail from Chris Hess with the note that "this was posted on our listserv ... and pretty much sums up everything."
The last argument Hess brought up was that the proposal is vague. But what he apparently does not understand is that the referendum is about as specific as it can be. Scott Kaiser, student body vice president, said Chancellor Robert Hemenway had finally say in granting land for such a project but was not going to spend time on it until it was proven that students were behind it.
When I talked with Yoder last week, he had just left a meeting with Hemenway and said Hemenway indicated that, in all likelihood, if students supported it, so would he.
That's why you should vote for a new recreation center.

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (April 14).
You have superhero powers this year. Use them wisely. You'll get a chance to show off in April, and you'll be magnificent. Help out a friend with good advice instead of money in May. A lucky break leads to just what you were seeking in June. Make sure a solid structure is in place by the end of August. Stash your money in a safe place in November, and return to a familiar scenario in December. Friendship leads to love in February, and the hunch in March is right.
Aries (March 21-April 19): Today is a 9.
Taurus (April 20-May 20): Today is a 5.
Arnes (March 21-April 19): Today is a 9.
You're a natural cheerleader today. You're so full of vim and vigor that you you're practically overflowing.
Don't forget how powerful you are, though. If you get too rambunctious, you could accidentally hurt somebody.
Taurus 20-april 20: Today is a 5. The heat is really on right now. You need to perform brilliantly. Just rely on what you already know. Your experience will help you get through this. A good partner wouldn't hurt, either.
Gemini (Mav 21-June 21): Todav is a 7.
You're a good team player, and today your team is outrageous. You'll be lucky to keep up with some of them. You may not have to, either. Just cheer them on to victory, and relish the glory when the job is done and the game is won.
Cancer (June 22-July 22): Today is a 5.
Carter 22 July 2023, today is 10:00.
Today, there could be a pop quiz, a big test, with lots riding on it such as your future success, for example.
That includes how much money you'll be making and whether you'll be doing work that you like. Trust your first guess.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Today is an 8.
This is a good day for travel, for playing games and for love, not necessarily in that order. There will be a couple of surprises, but that just adds to the fun. Mainly, get out and stretch your legs, your imagination and your heart.
Virao (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Today is a 5.
Virga (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Today is a 5.
Financial abundance can be yours, but not entirely all by yourself. In other words, you'll find much more if you have somebody else on your side. By putting your resources together, where once there was dearth, now there will be plethora.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Today is a 7.
Partnerships are very important to you, but one that's available today may be kind of scary. The other person's sc important or so powerful. How could he or she like you? Don't shy away. You may look better than you realize.
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Today is a 5.
Your workload could get very intense today. Take care. As the pace picks up, the chance of accidents increases, too. You're very careful, normally, but not everybody is. Watch out for impetuous fools.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Today is a 7.
You ought to be in a fabulous mood today. It looks as if there's love everywhere in your life. You may even decide to make a commitment, although that's rare for a Sagittarius to do. But heck, if you do it now, it should work out marvelously. So, take the plunge.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Today is a 5.
With the sun and moon both in Aries, there's bound to be lots of activity at your place. Are you having the scout troop there for a camput or something? There's bound to be plenty of surprises, too, but watch out for accidents. Maybe you'd better post the speed limit in the hallways.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Today is a 7.
Aquarius {Jan. 20-Feb. 18}: Today is a 7.
You're probably one of the most intelligent people you know, and it's partially because you like to do homework. Well, today you can take all that homework you've done, put it in a big pile and light it on fire. Use what you've already learned in a new and different way for a burst of creativity.
C
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20); Today is a 5.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Today is a 5.
You could do quite well today financially, but this is a double-edged sword. If you're feeling really flush, you could buy so many gifts that you end up in the hole anyway. Don't celebrate by going into debt.

Surgery for pitcher considered a success
ST. LOUIS — St. Louis Cardinals' right-hander Matt Morris underwent surgery in Los Angeles yesterday to repair his pitching elbow. The surgery was considered a success.
Morris had a 95 percent tear of the medial collateral ligament of his elbow, making the injury worse than expected, team spokesman Brad Hainie said.
"Once they got in there, they said it was a good thing that they went ahead with the surgery." Hainie said.
ahead for the surgery'. Hamile said.
Los Angeles Dodgers' physician and arm specialist Dr. Frank Jobe performed the surgery on Morris. Jobe, with assistance from Cardinals' team physician George Paletta, took a tenon from the palm of Morris' hand and implanted it into his elbow.
The surgery is scary for pitchers because it has ended some careers and turned terrific pitchers into mediocre ones. Morris, 24, acknowledged he had concerns.
"You're everything — nervous, scared, anxious, every word you can come up with," he said. "But I pretty much just want to get it over with. I can't go forward until I get it done. I just want to get the surgery done, start recuperating and move on."
The Cardinals were counting on Morris to be their No. 1 starter. He was 7-5 with a 2.53 ERA in 1998, when he missed all but one start before the All-Star break with a shoulder injury.
Doctors said Morris wouldn't return until the start of spring training.

MINNEAPOLIS — Connecticut point guard Khalid El-amin, who helped lead the Huskies to their first NCAA championship, has had his high school iersev retired.

Minneapolis North High School's gym was packed Monday with stu-
"This is my home, and I'm proud of being from here, and the people here are just showing me so much support, and I’m very thankful for it," ElAmin said.
El-Amin graduated from Minneapolis North High School in 1997 after leading the Polars to three consecutive state high school basketball championships. He helped Connecticut beat Duke 77-74 for the national championship on March 29.
El-Amin, who is majoring in broadcast journalism, plans to bypass the NBA draft and return to college for his junior year. El-Amin told the crowd he hoped to lead the Huskies to another national title.
LAS VEGAS — Former WBC heavyweight champion Oliver McCall wants to get back in the ring when he completes a one-year jail sentence for a battery and assault conviction.
"I can't hide from the past. I have to accept what I have been through and learn from my mistakes to move forward with my life," said McCall, who is scheduled to be released from a jail in Martinsville, Va., about May 1.
"I am resolved to the fact I have a great deal of work ahead of me to earn back the respect and trust of promoters, fighters, the athletic commissions and boxing fans."
Former boxing champ wants to fight again
The statement was issued through Las Vegas-based Rogig Communications Group, which represents McCall's promoter, Don King.
McCall knocked out Lennox Lewis for the WBC title in September 1994, then defended the title against Larry Holmes in 1995. He lost the title to Frank Bruno in a 12-round decision.
He met Lewis again in February 1997 but stopped throwing punches in the middle of the third round. Referee Mills Lane halted the fight in the fifth round, awarding the win to Lewis.
McCall was suspended and fined by the Nevada State Athletic Commission for his actions.
He was convicted Oct.14, 1997, on battery and assault charges involving a police officer.
Overtime goal clinches playoff spot for Oilers
SAN JOSE, Calif. — Edmonton's Tom Poti seemed mystified by the sudden turn of events.
"I was just trying not to mess up defensively," the Oilers' defenseman said after his overtime goal had given his team a 5-4 victory against San Jose and clinched a playoff berth for Edmonton.
The Oilers won the eighth and final Western Conference playoff spot and will play Dallas in the first round. Poti scored from 1.5 feet away with 1:05 left in overtime and lifted the Oilers to victory in a game in which they twice came from behind in the final period.
"I saw the chance to jump in offensively, and it paid off," said Poti, who has scored five goals this season. "San Jose wasn't covering me too tight on the point, so I sneaked in, bolted to the net, and he (Doug Weight) put the puck right on my stick, and it went into the net."
"I've never seen anything like that before. We just kept coming back. It was unbelievable."
San Jose coach Daryl Sutter, whose Sharks have clinched the 7.0 West-ern Conference playoff spot, thought his team didn't play a smart game.
"We spent a lot of time killing penalties in the last period, and we weren't able to bring our energy level back up to Edmonton's," he said.
Edmonton goattender Tommy Salo was thrilled by his team's comeback

Women's tennis faces fierce rival in K-State
By Amanda Kaschube
Kansan sportswriter
sports.kansan.com
Intrastate rival Kansas State will travel to Lawrence today to face the women's tennis team at 3 p.m. at the Robinson courts.
The Jayhawks look to extend their perfect home winning streak to 14-0 and overall winning streak to 16 against the Wildcats. The two teams met twice last season, and the Jayhawks won both matches, 8-1 and 5-3.
Junior Brooke Chiller hopes to improve her record today to 17-16 and earn her sixth victory in the last seven matches.
Chiller was named Big 12 Player of the Week for the week ending April 11.
Chiller is 3-2 in the conference at No.2 singles and has posted a 17-15 overall doubles record with partner, junior Julia Sidorova.
Coach Jenny Garrity said Chiller had been playing very well in the past matches.
"Brooke has kept battling for us, and that meant a lot to the team." Garrity said.
The lone senior on the team, Kris Sell, will be key in the match. Sell has never lost to K State's No.1 singles player, and she would like to keep it that way.
"I'd like to end my career at KU without losing to them," Sell said. "They are really tough fighters, but we're up for them."
Sell is ranked No. 23 and is 23-18 overall.
Garrity said the in-state rivalry extends beyond football and basketball.
"We always get up for this match," she said. "It's a big conference match, and if we want to be in the top four in the conference, we have to win this one."
Freshmen Cheryl and Lisa Mallaiah both have compiled winning streaks during the past few weeks. Cheryl has four consecutive wins at No. 3 singles and is 4-2 in the conference.
"I'm a lot more confident now," Cheryl Mallaiah said. "I just keep fighting for my points, and I think I'm playing a lot better."
Lisa Mallaiah has three wins in a row and is a perfect 5-0 in the conference at No. 6 singles. The No. 3 doubles team of Lisa Mallaiah and sophomore Monica Sekulov has consecutive wins against Missouri and Tulaa. With a win against Kansas State, the duo can improve its record to 10-8.
Garrity said the team has been playing tough tennis recently.
"The team just tells themselves to 'eat dirt,'" she said. "They will do anything possible to win. I'm very proud of them." The Jayhawks are sixth in the conference with a 4-2 record.
In case of inclement weather, the match will be held at 5 p.m. at Alvamar Racquet Club.
Kansas will face Oklahoma State on Saturday and Oklahoma on Sunday.

Softball team set to face Creighton
By Brandon Stinnett sports@kansan.com Kanson saintwriter
The Kansas softball team will try to win a game at home for the first time since March 16 today when the Jayhawks play host to Creighton (19-21, 4-0) in a doubleheader at Jayhawk Field.
Kansas coach Tracy Bunge said the Jayhawks should expect two highly competitive games.
"Creighton is a good, solid team, and they always come to KU ready to play in year in and year out." Bunge said. "We have to go out and execute and make some things happen."
The Jayhawks are coming off a weekend road trip through Texas in which they split doubleheaders with Baylor, 9-8 and 4-3, and Texas Tech, 4-1 and 1-4.
Kansas' 4-3 win in the second game against Baylor on Saturday was the Jayhawks' first conference victory of the season, and it snapped an eight-game losing streak.
"It's easiest to say I was a lot happier with the team's play this weekend than I have been in recent weeks." Bunge said.
Junior pitcher Sarah Workman appears to have regained her confidence. Workman was the winning pitcher in both of the Jayhawks' victories on Saturday and Sunday. She gave up a three-run home run in the first inning of the second game against Baylor and gave the Bears a 3-0 lead.
But Workman held the Bears scoreless for the next six innings, and the Jayhawks came from behind for a 4-3 victory. On Sunday Workman allowed one run on three hits in the Jayhawks 4-1 victory against Texas Tech.
"She pitched really well," Bunge said. "She was just unhittable in the first six innings against Texas Tech. She was a totally different pitcher than
Softball
what we saw last week against Missouri. She's got her confidence back."
Bunge's record for all-time career home runs on the Kansas softball team is on the verge of being broken. Junior Shannon Stanwix belted two homers in Texas and tied Bunge's all-time career home-run mark with 15. Bunge said it was one record she couldn't wait to relinquish.
"I want her to break the record really soon," Bunge said. "Then people will stop asking me about it. I'll be tickled pink when Shannon does finally break it."
Stanwix said she was not going to make breaking the record a priority.
"I really don't think about the record too much," she said. "If I break it, that's fine, but I'm not going to go up to the plate trying to hit a home run."
Stanwix has been one of the Jayhawks' leading offensive producers this season.
She leads the Jayhawks in home runs (7), RBI (19) and slugging percentage .496). She went 6-for-13 in the four games against Baylor and Texas Tech.
"When (Stanwix) is swinging at pitches too high or in the dirt, she gets too aggressive," Bunge said. "This weekend she got out there and waited for her pitch. She's a very, very good hitter."
Stanwix, who batted. 258 with three home runs last season, said she felt better about her hitting then a year ago.
"Last year, it's no secret, I struggled at the plate," Stanwix said. "This year, I'm getting a lot more solid hits."
UConn guard booked on marijuana charges
The Associated Press
- Edited by Kelly Ahrendt
HARTFORD, Conn. — Khalid El-Amin, who helped Connecticut to its first national championship just 15 days earlier, was arrested yesterday and charged with possession of marijuana.
The sophomore point guard was picked up on a Hartford street and charged with possession of less than four ounces of marijuana, police said. El-Amin was hustled out of a police substation in the city's North End just after 6 p.m. and taken to the main police station to be booked.
About a dozen teen-agers had gathered at the substation on news of the arrest. They cheered as El-Amin eluded reporters and jumped into the car.
Another UConn star, junior Richard Hamilton, was with El-Amin when he was arrested, police said. Hamilton, a first-team All-American, was not charged.
Tim Tolokan, UConn's sports information director, said the school had no knowledge of the arrest and no further comment.
El-Amin, a 5-foot-10 point
guard, led the Huskies (36-2) to a 77-74 victory against top-ranked Duke in the national championship game on March 29. It was the school's first trip to the Final Four.
El-Amin announced last week that he would return to UConn for his junior season rather than make himself eligible for the NBA draft.
He has started 71 games and became the third UConn player to score 1,000 points as a sophomore.
For the past two seasons, he has averaged 14.9 points and 4.1 assists. He finished second in scoring this season with 13.8 points and led the team in assists with 140.
El-Amin's arrest came one day after Minneapolis North High School in Minnesota retired his jersey. El-Amin graduated from Minneapolis North High School in 1997 after leading the Polars to three consecutive state high school basketball championships.
El-Amin was voted to the Final Four All-Tournament Team after scoring 30 points and handing out 10 assists in the wins against Ohio State and Duke.

Gretzky's future undecided
Fans hope star will play one more year
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — When Wayne Gretzky plays his final game of the season for the New York Rangers on Sunday, it's likely fans at Madison Square Garden will give him a standing ovation.
He won't even have to score a goal or make one of his brilliant, highlight-reel passes to deserve it.
The fans, unsure whether Gretzky will be returning for another year, should be giving the Great One his due for what he has accomplished during an unparalleled hockey career.
With the end of the season in sight, speculation already is starting about Gretzky's future in hockey. The 38-year-old Gretzky is in the last year of a contract and has said he would make a decision about his future sometime after the season.
"We'll find out soon enough," said Rangers' coach John Muckler following Monday night's 2-1 vic-
before Monday night's game, Gretzky denied a television report that his retirement was imminent. However, after the game, he said:
tory against Tampa Bay. "Everybody is speculating, but only one person knows for sure."
"It's time to think about it. All of a sudden it has become a bigger issue than I imagined. Let's see what happens over the next five or six days."
Rangers broadcaster John Davidson raised the issue of Gretzky's retirement on Sunday while broadcasting the Detroit-Pittsburgh game on Fox TV. "The people very close to Wayne, and I mean very close, feel there's a very strong possibility Sunday will be the last time he plays," Davidson said.
"I said it a hundred times that I've been here over the three years," Gretzky said. "This is the greatest city to be an athlete in."
Fans at Madison Square Garden held up signs with slogans such as "Wayne Don't Go." Gretzky said the fan reaction made it difficult to consider retiring.
As far as one old friend is concerned, the answer won't come easily, and certainly won't come soon.
"Knowing Wayne, he would weigh everything and talk to a lot of people before making that decision," said Bruce MacGregor,
assistant general manager of the Edmonton Oilers. "It's a very hard decision. When you retire, it's for a long time."
Bill Tuele, another member of the Oilers' organization who also
is a longtime friend of Gretzky, wasn't so sure he would retire after this year.
Gretzky: May retire after last Ranger home game.
"I will say this. Wayne has not shared any final decision with anyone." Tuele, the Ollers' vice president and public relations head, said in a telephone interview. "Wayne's dad doesn't know.
Runner sues Olympic organizations
The Associated Press
INDIANAPOLIS — Mary Slaney has sued the International Amateur Athletic Federation and the U.S. Olympic Committee in a bid to stop the testosterone test that determines whether a female athlete has committed a drug violation.
Slaney, the best women's distance runner in U.S. history, tested positive during the 1996 U.S. Olympic trials with a testosterone-epitestosterone (T-E) ratio above the 6-to-1 limit.
She was suspended from competition the next year, then later reinstated, although the IAAF referred the case to arbitration.
Testosterone is a naturally
A panel in Monte Carlo last week adjourned the arbitration hearing until April 24.
occurring hormone that builds muscle mass.
"Both the USOC and IAAF know that things other than doping can cause a women's T-E ratio to go above 6-1-to," he said. "But neither of them takes that in consideration in investigating cases involving female athletes."
Slaney's lawyer, Jim Coleman, said it was fraudulent to apply the T-E ratio to female athletes.
The suit, filed Monday in U.S. District Court in Indianapolis, also seeks unspecified damages.
Coleman said he had asked the IAAF and USOC to suspend the use of the T-E ratio because the elevated numbers could be caused by factors such as birth control pills, which Slaney was taking at the time.
"The USOC is being sued
because this was the USOC test, and at the very outset, they said an investigation had to be done to rule out the possibility that this could be explained by innocent factors," Coleman said. "That was never done, and the USOC never assured that it was. It just simply imaged what the IAAF was doing.
"the only way to stop this was to bring a lawsuit," he said. "We gave both the USOC and the IAAF an opportunity voluntarily to avoid the litigation. They weren't willing to do it. The IAAF wasn't going to do it because it has no other way to detect the use of testosterone. Rather than trying to find a valid way, they are willing to take the chance that they will prosecute and damage an innocent athlete."
Slaney, 40, was world champion at 1,500 and 3,000 meters in 1983.
Boston bank will sponsor All-Star Game
The Associated Press
BOSTON — These days, sports and corporate sponsorship are as American as, well, baseball and hot dogs. Airlines, brewers and computer companies all have spent big bucks to get their names on stadiums and ballparks.
Now, a bank is putting its money behind the most national of pastimes.
Fleet Financial Group has become an official sponsor of Major League Baseball and the 1999 All-Star Game, which will be played in Boston in July.
Announced at Fenway Park on Monday, the sponsorship comes a month after Fleet detailed plans to merge with BankBoston, becoming the nation's eighth-largest bank and New England's dominant lender.
The baseball agreement, however, does not mean that the All-Star Game will be named after the bank. The rights to that moniker belong to Major League Baseball.
About 20 other corporations have
About 20 other co some form of sponsorship with Major League Baseball, but Fleet is the first bank among them
BALL
"This gives us a capacity that we didn't have before," said Anne Finucane, Fleet's senior vice president for corporate marketing.
The sponsorship helps cement the bank's presence in New England and gives it a broader advertising reach across the country — one they plan to use to full marketing advantage, bank officials said.
The timing couldn't be better for Fleet, marketing specialists said.
The sponsorship strengthens the bank's ties to baseball. Last year, Fleet arranged $425 million in financing for Major League Baseball.
Right now, there's a lot of questionable press about the Fleet-Bank Boston merger and what the effect is going to be on the New England economy," said Kathleen Brewer Doran, a professor of marketing at Babson College in Wellesley.

Aikman to stay with Dallas
Quarterback signs six-year extension
The Associated Press
IRVING, Texas — Troy Aikman signed a six-year contract extension that will keep him with the Dallas Cowboys through 2007.
Team owner Jerry Jones disclosed the new deal for his star quarterback yesterday during a news conference to announce the return of center Mark Stepmoski. The former Pro Bowler was given a five-year, $10.5 million contract plus a $3.5 million signing bonus.
Jones refused to disclose details of Aikman's contract other than to say it was very salary-cap friendly. Neither Aikman nor his agent, Leigh Steinberg, attended the news conference. Steinberg did not immediately return a telephone call to The Associated Press.
"We have extended the contract of Troy Aikman to the point where this franchise and our fans are sure to have him for the rest of his career." Jones said. "We are very pleased this agreement has been completed."
Alkman, who had three years left
on his previous deal, has restructured his contract several times earlier but usually added only one year at a time. Now he's on the payroll until beyond his 41st birthday.
It's not unusual for teams to sign their marquee quarterback past the likely end of his career. Denver has done it with John Elway and San Francisco has done it for Steve Young. The teams are gambling that the salary cap eventually will go up enough to absorb those deals while giving them the immediate benefit of reducing the impact of the quarterback's signing bonus on the salary cap.
Two seasons ago, Alkman was fed up with the Cowboys. He was tired of his teammates' off-field transgressions and thought that the focus on winning had waned after three Super Bowl victories, something he mostly blamed on coach Barry Switzer. Alkman's patience was thin after Dallas went 6-10 in 1997.
But the Cowboys reversed their course by replacing Switzerland with Chan Gailey, and Alkman's attitude did a 180-degree turn, too. He smiled much more often as Dallas won its sixth NFC East title in seven years last season, even
though they were ousted from the plavoffs in the first round.
"His talent and commitment will help us ultimately get back to the Super Bowl," Jones said. "That's his goal. That's what he's all about. Any time you have ever seen him in any form of excitement or frustration it's because of the direction the team was going in his mind, toward doing things to win the Super Bowl."
Aikman and Stepnoski broke into
the NFL together in 1899 and were a formidable tandem for six years. But Stepnoski signed with Houston
DALLAS CITY
after the 1994 season when Dallas didn't make re-signing him a priority.
Stepnoski said yesterday that it was the right decision at the time but that things didn't turn out as he had hoped. The Oilers missed the playoffs all four seasons, and the team moved to Tennessee halfway through his tenure.
"The whole emphasis on winning is definitely one of the key features that motivated me to come back," Stepnoski said.
Complaints filed against skating coach
The Associated Press
A former student and colleague of Richard Callaghan asked the U.S. Figure Skating Association and the Professional Skaters Association yesterday to look into his accusations of sexual misconduct and exploitation.
The USFSA and the PSA received complaints from Craig Maurizi. The PSA has 20 days and the USFSA 30 to decide what to do with the complaints.
moving at that time."
"We need an incredible amount of legal documentation, and that's why our rules are very clear there are 30 days of review to make sure our direction is the proper one," said USFSA president Jim Dibrow, who hasn't yet seen the complaint. "There will be an answer, a definite answer, to where we will be
Callaghan, who coached Tara Lipinski to the gold medal last year in the Nagano Olympics, was not notified of the complaints, nor will he be before a decision is made, said Dean Groulx, his lawyer. Callaghan has vehemently denied the accusations.
"We are confident that when the chair of the grievance committee reviews the allegations, it will find the grievance lacks merit and will take the appropriate action," Groulx said.
In a story first published Sunday in The New York Times, Maurizi said Callaghan made improper advances to him when he was 15. Maurizi, now 36, said Callaghan abused his authority three years later to initiate a full sexual relationship, which continued for four years.
Both complaints will go to a grievance committee chairperson, who decides whether any rule has been violated and evaluates the timeliness of the complaint. If the chairperson decides there is merit, a panel is formed to investigate and make a ruling.
in the USFSA, the panel would consist of as many as nine people who represent the organization, including athletes, coaches and judges, USFSA representative Bob Dunlop said. In the PSA, it's a threeperson panel, PSA president Jerry Lane said.
The grievance panel also would be responsible for deciding what, if any, punishment is warranted.
This is the first time anyone — including Maurizi — has filed a formal complaint against Callaghan.

Topeka mall competes for KU student dollars
Stores' popularity plays large role in shopping choice
By Kris M. Elliott Special to the Kanson
Much of the controversy lies in the removal or absence of popular stores.
The West Ridge Mall in Topeka, which recently celebrated its 10th anniversary, remains, in some KU student's eyes, in fierce competition with Kansas City's malls and Lawrence's downtown stores.
"What happened is back 10 years ago when we opened, most places did 10-year leases," said Vicki Hosman, marketing director for the mall. "It's a natural thing. What was popular 10 years ago, those stores aren't popular now."
The mall, at 1801 SW Wanamaker Road, has 115 specialty stores open and five anchors: The Jones Store Company; Dillard's; Montgomery Ward; Sears, Roebuck and Company; and J.C. Penney Co. Inc.
Starting in November, several stores began closing in the mall. The Limited Inc., Express and Structure stores
closed, and were replaced with S&K Men's Wear, Parade Shoes and Contempo Casuals. A new IHOP—International House of Pancakes —should open outside of the mall at the end of this month.
Some stores' leases were not renewed to get new stores in, Hosman said.
For some University of Kansas students, the changes taking place at the West Ridge Mall mean they will not shop there as often, especially with Kansas City malls only slightly farther away.
"There are always millions of people there making the lines for things horrendous and not worth it," said Abbey Baker, Topeka sophomore. "I would much rather drive to eight different stores than stand in line for an hour at each store at the mall."
Angie Bezdek, Topeka Junior, said the biggest problem with West Ridge Mall is the lack of variety of stores.
"I've heard a lot of complaints," Bezek said. "Some friends still just go there because they don't want to drive to Kansas City, but they're just not pleased with the overall variety."
Baker said she had heard of the stores moving out of the mall and thought that it was a reflection on the
mall's inconveniences.
Both shoppers said one store in particular could really help boost West Ridge Mall's popularity - Old Navy.
"I know that they were supposed to have an Old Navy go in," Bezdek said. "I don't know if that is going to go through or not, but I think that would help a lot."
Baker said she sometimes drove to Kansas City just to go to Old Navy.
Hosman said she thought there were several stores at West Ridge Mall that would tract college students, including American Eagle Outfitters, GAP, Eddie Flauer Inc., and Bath and Body Works. Hosman also said the mall had 14 movie theaters.
Hosman said she could not release the names of stores that were thinking of joining the mall until a contract had been signed.
Another aspect of the mall that is becoming more popular is the Mall Perks program, which is a reward program for shoppers. Shoppers pay $5 to enroll in the program, and then every dollar spent in the mall earns points toward discounts at stores.

Jazz, rock highlight season of Topeka music shows
By Allan Davis
Don McLean is coming to the center. The Beach Boys Family and Friends may be coming, too.
McLean, famous for his hits American Pie and Vincent, will appear May 21. The center is hoping to add the Beach Boys Family and Friends to its schedule soon. Carnie and Wendy Wilson of Wilson Phillips are a part of the Beach Boys Family and Friends show. Brian Wilson, their father, is one of the original Beach Boys.
The Topeka Performing Arts Center, a half-hour west of Lawrence, features acts you cannot catch at a local club or at the Lied Center.
Special to the Kansan
The center's regular season runs from September through April, but events can be announced at any time during the year.
"Just because we're in our season doesn't mean that we won't add a good show if it's made available to us, and we like it," said Kate Hastings, director of marketing for the center. Hastings also said the center planned its seasons with the intent of finding things that appealed to a wide variety of audiences.
Hastings also said the center's Partners in Education program offered groups from schools like the University of Kansas 50 percent discounts for up to 100 of the lowest priced tickets to most shows.
"That really takes the school saying they want to do that," Hastings said. "So, if you have an instructor at the school (who) says I've got 10 students who want to come' to whatever show it is, we could tell you whether we're running that. We do run it for most of the shows that we produce."
Hastings said the center was under contract with the city to produce shows. The center, a nonprofit organization, leases its building from Topeka. The building used to be the Topeka Municipal Auditorium. It was renovated about nine years ago and opened in 1991 as the Topeka Performing Arts Center.
Bryce Miller, Topeka resident, said he was pleased with the conversion. Miller said he saw the Dukes of Dixieland at the center, and the acoustics were excellent. He also said he
The center features a mixture of theater, song, dance, jazz, classical and pop music. Coming events include The Lettermen, a vocal group most popular in the early '60s. They will appear at 8 p.m., April 17. Tickets are $25,$20 and $15.
used to go to Starlight Theatre in Kansas City, Mo., but he had not been there since Topeka's center had opened.
The center's Georgia Neese Gray Performance Hall seats 2,600. Wheelchair seating also is available. The building also houses the Hussey Playhouse Theatre, also called the Black Box because the room is entirely black. It seats 136.
That is what happened with McLean and may happen with the Beach Boys Family and Friends.
"That's something that anybody who likes world-class jazz would be really interested in." Hastings said. "The lineup for the show is phenomenal. The best jazz — straight-ahead jazz musicians from around the world."
All-session three-day packages are $165,
$300 and $1,000. Single-session passes for Saturday
and Sunday are $50. The single ticket
for Monday is $60 and is good for all sessions
that day. Group rate prices are also available.
Interstring, a part of the center's Best of Kansas City Jazz series, will perform at 3 p.m.. April 25. Tickets are $12 each.
There are also treats for younger audiences. A children's show, "101 Dalmatians," will be performed at 9:30 a.m. and 11:30 a.m., April 16.
"Freedom Train," a part of the Center's Youth Educational Programs, will be performed at 10 a.m., April 29. Tickets are $5 each. "Freedom Train" tells the story of Harriet Tubman, an African-American woman who led runaway slaves to freedom via the Underground Railroad.
The center is offering student-rate ticket plans.
"On our group discounts, whenever you can get 20 people together, there's some pretty good discounts to almost every one of our shows." Hastings said.
The 1999 Topeka International Jazz Festival will be Memorial Day weekend, May 29 to 31.

Nelson-Atkins art museum boasts displays of world-famous artwork
By Julia Nicholson Special to the Kansan
You can almost imagine that a game of badminton between two giants once took place here and that they carelessly left four 18-foot shuttlecocks scattered on the grounds of the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art, 4525 Oak Street, in Kansas City, Mo.
The Shuttlecocks designed by Claes Oldenburg and Coosje Van Bruggen, both American sculptors, were the first outdoor sculptures to be commissioned in 1994 by the museum for the Kansas City Sculpture Park.
Meredith Thedinger, public information assistant for the museum, said she thought the sculptures were a fun addition to the museum grounds.
"I think that it breaks up the neo-classical structure
of the building," she said.
Marina Scheer, Overland Park sophomore, has been to the museum several times.
"It's in a nice location as it's right by the Plaza. You can spend a day at the Nelson and then head over to the Plaza for the evening. It adds to the cultural value of living in Kansas City," she said.
The museum is one of the largest general art museums in the country, taking visitors through European, American, African, Ancient and Oceanic art.
Its most outstanding collection is in Asian art. The Nelson-Atkins Chinese collection is recognized as one of the best in the world outside of China.
The museum also displays special exhibitions.
An upcoming exhibition is "Copper as Canvas: Two Centuries of Masterpiece
Paintings on Copper, 1575-1775". Thedinger said the exhibit featured some of the best-preserved paintings on copper by European and Spanish-American artists. It includes works by Rembrandt, Frans Hals, Annibale Carracci and Luis Juarez. The exhibition will run from March 28 to June 6.
From April 20 to June 13, the museum will be host to five sculptures from 20th century Japanese sculptor Isamu Naouchi.
"Echoes of Eternity: The Egyptian Mummy and the Afterlife" will bring a mummy more than 2,700 years old to the museum. On loan from New York's Metropolitan Museum of Art, the mummy will be displayed in an elaborate coffin with various Egyptian art artifacts, accompanying an explanation of the afterlife and CAT scans of the body.
The exhibit will run from June 4,1999 to May 7,2000.
Any time is a good time to head to the museum, and it remains open on Fridays until 9 p.m. It closes at 4 p.m. on week days. Rozelle Court, the museum's restaurant, is in an airy interior court of the museum and features inexpensive buffet meals.
On Fridays, there is always some entertainment and live music in the restaurant. Thedinger suggested the museum as an alternative Friday night outing.
"It's a great date night for people to go and spend time together and have a nice dinner," she said.
The museum's Creative Arts Center offers classes to both adults and children, designed to give a greater understanding of the museum's collections and of art in general.

Aggieville bars draw crowds from Lawrence
By Katie Hollar Special to the Kansan
Adam Kruse's 21st birthday celebration spanned three days and 90 miles.
After exhausting the Lawrence bar scene, the Wichita junior went west to Manhattan's Aggleville.
"It's just fun to go to a different town," he said. "You see new people."
Like Kruse, many KU students make the short road trip to Manhattan's mecca of collegiate carousing.
"It's real fun to go out in Aggieville," said Mark Rabbitt, Overland Park senior.
Situated at Manhattan and Anderson avenues, this four-
block area is saturated with 12 bars, six restaurants and a number of specialty shops. Aggieville presents a variety of atmospheres, from the rustic tavern Silverado's Saloon, 531 N. Manhattan Ave., to KJ's Dance Club, 1215 Moro. Jessica Uthe, Engels sophomore, said she thought Aggieville was a lot of fun.
"All the bars are so close together." Uthe said. "If all your friends aren't at one, they're probably at the next one down the street."
Both Uthe and Rabbitt mentioned Lucky's, 710 N. Manhattan Ave., as their favorite Aggieville bar. Rabbitt also frequents the 12th Street Pub, 615 N. 12th.
Gary "Bear" Bennett, head of security at Rusty's Last Chance,
1213 Moro, Aggieville's largest bar, said that the bar drew a large crowd when the K-State Wildcats faced the Javhawks.
"I see a lot of KU people. I give them a lot of trouble," Bennett said. "It's all in fun, though."
"I haven't had to toss out a KU person yet," he said.
Although the school rivalry is fierce, fights are uncommon, said Adam Berry, a bouncer at KJ's and K-State sophomore.
Rabbitt said he thought that night life in Manhattan beat the Lawrence scene.
"Here at KU people really only go out on Thursdays," he said. "Every night in Aggieville, all the bars are packed. They say KU is a top 10 party school. I don't see it. I think they meant K-State."
Kemper offers more than concerts
By Emily Hughey Special to the Kanser
Special to the Kansan
Lighters flicker and puffs of smoke rise up in clusters from the packed crowd. Her long, brown hair, tied back in four separate pony tails, swings as she jerks her body, stamps her feet on the stage and engages the audience with her vocals.
I'm here to remind you of the mess you left when you went away," Alanis Morrissette crowed from the stage at Kemper Arena to a near sell-out crowd last Monday night.
Lindsay Ace, Emporia sophomore, sat in the 13th row at the concert and said the energy she felt in Kemper, combined with the diversity of the crowd, added to the magic of Morrisette's performance.
ple from all different background."
"I loved the energy from the crowd; the crowd wanted her so bad," Ace said. "And it was kind of an ecteic crowd. You had your older married people in the Chiefs sweatirts who probably won the tickets and threw ice at people so they'd sit down. And then you had the preteen girls with dyed hair and bare midriffs. There were peo-
Although KU students go to Kemper Arena, 1800 Genesee Road in Kansas City, Mo., mainly for concerts, the arena does offer other forms of entertainment.
"I think I went to a rodeo one time, but that was a long time ago," said Jeff Heiman, Olathe senior.
Deb Churchill, events coordinator, said the arena has housed everything from Sesame Street Live to monster truck rallies to the Big 12 Conference basketball tournament to hockey games.
"We love for people to come down for concerts, but there are a lot of other opportunities for entertainment." Churchill said.
Stephanie Temple, Plano, Texas senior and manager of the men's basketball team, has been courtside at Kansas basketball games in Kemper for the past four years. She said she thought it was a good arena to play in.
"I've never really sat in the seats, but just looking up, it doesn't look like there are really any bad seats," Temple said.
However, the good seats come at a
high price. Heiman said he wished he could go to more basketball games but that the ticket prices were too high for his budget.
"Every year they seem to get higher." Heiman said. "If the ticket prices were a little more reasonable, I think I'd probably go down there more often."
But for some students,concerts remain the primary attraction to Kemper.
"I don't attend monster truck rallies. I don't attend home shows. I don't attend boat shows. I don't attend golf exposés," Josh Jordan, Emporia sophomore, said. "How ever, I do enjoy an occasional concert even though it's an arena and not a concert hall."
Despite Jordan's opinion of the poor acoustics in the arena, Churchill said she thought Kemper was a perfect place for big shows.
Acoustically, it's a good venue. There's not a bad seat in the house and the parking is not as difficult. It's pretty convenient, too, because it's right off the highway," Churchill said. "Kemper gives you the big feel of a big show."

It's hard to spend much time in Kansas City without hearing about Crown Center.
Crown Center is a shopping, dining and entertainment complex geared toward a variety of tastes.
"A lot of the activities we do are free, so it's nice for college students on a budget," said Kristi Ernsting, public relations specialist at Crown Center. "We try to offer something for everyone."
for you.
The complex is not just the Hallmark Cards headquarters, and it's not just a shopping mall. Both elements are part of Crown Center, but the complex billed as a "city within a city" doesn't stop with stores and offices.
In the mood for jazz? Live performances are scheduled from 1 to 4 p.m. every Saturday and Sunday, and they're free.
Seeking out the quirky side of Kansas City? Look no further than "Even More Things People Collect," an exhibit opening May 22 that showcases treasured collections of beer cans, snow domes, cartoon memorabilia and even toilets. One collector remembers My Little Pony, and others have soft spots for Animal Crackers boxes. Dukes of Hazzard memorabilia and those smiley faces that were popular during the 1970s. More than 100 collectors will be participating in the free event, which will be in The Showplace on the first floor of Crown Center Shops.
The activities available at Crown Center change with the seasons.
"When I went, we went ice skating," said Danner Evans, Wichita junior. "We had a good time. It's in such a good location in Kansas City."
Would-be skaters will have to wait until November to step onto the ice at Crown Center's outdoor rink. During the summer, the rink area can be used for concerts.
Erin Obee, Cottonwood Falls junior, said she wouldn't choose Crown Center for a serious shopping trip. But she said co-workers had recommended the Russian Dinosaur Exhibition, which has been extended through April 25. It includes 33 complete skeletons collected from sites across Asia. The exhibit is free.
Here's a look at Crown Center's permanent offerings and a few coming events:
- Crown Center Shops consists of 65 stores on three floors. It is anchored by Halls Crown Center, an upscale department store known for its china, crystal, silver and stationery collections as well as fashions from top designers.
The mall itself includes nationally known retailers such as Function Junction, Bath and Body Works, Waldenbooks, Casual Corner and Camelot Music. For cat lovers, Cat's Meow offers specialty gifts with a feline theme. Other theme stores include Car's the Star, an "auto art" gift gallery; Second Star to the Right, which sells Disney collectibles; and Best of Kansas City, which offers "collectibles and edibles" with a Kansas City twist.
With 20 restaurants and food vendors, Crown Center offers dining options from traditional food-court fare to the four-star American Restaurant.
Heartland Market in Crown Center Shops includes several food vendors as well as full
service restaurants. The offerings include Italian, Greek, Japanese, Chinese and Mexican fare as well as traditional American cuisine, baked goods and various candy and ice-cream treats.
American Heartland Theatre, a 400-seat playhouse on the third floor of Crown Center Shops, features live productions ranging from comedies and musicals to dramas and mysteries.
Playing through May 2 is "Steel Magnolias," a play about the lives of several women in a small Louisiana town. It was the basis for the 1989 film of the same name starring Julia Roberts, Dolly Parton, Sally Field and Shirley MacLaine.
"Murder Among Friends," a mystery about a wealthy Manhattan woman who plans the death of her husband, an aging actor, opens May 14 and runs through June 27.
For show times and ticket information, call (816) 842-9999.
The Coterie Theatre on the first floor of Crown Center Shops offers live productions for families with children and teen-agers.
The current production is "Free to Be ... You and Me," which will continue through May 16. The musical, which presents stories, poems and songs, is billed as a project "about dispelling myths that have imprisoned children's imaginations — like pretty equals good, and all mothers stay in the kitchen, and big boys don't cry."
The show is a 25th anniversary presentation of the project created by several entertainers and children's authors, including Marlo Thomas, Shel Silverstein, Mary Rodgers, Carl Reiner, Judy Blume and Judith Vorset. It is recommended for children 5 and older. Tickets cost $6. For more information, call (816) 474-6552.
The Hallmark Visitors Center houses $ ^{14} $
exhibits relating to Hallmark Cards Inc. One of those exhibits is a timeline showing how Hallmark products have reflected various trends in 20th-century America. Placed against a backdrop of newspapers and magazine covers are humorous cards from the Depression era, World War II greetings for servicemen and women, a flower-covered, paper dress from the 1960s, hologram from the 1980s and recordable greeting cards and ornaments from the 1990s. Also on display are paintings by artists such as Norman Rockwell, Grandma Moses and Saul Steinberg. All have appeared on Hallmark cards.
Other displays show how Hallmark products are made. The center is open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday and from 9:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Saturdays. The exhibits are free.
Kaleidoscope, Hallmark's art workshop, is open to children 5 to 12 and adults who accompany them. During the 55-minute sessions, children create art using colored paper, wax, glitter, yarn and other materials. Hours vary; call (816) 274-8300. The workshop is free.
- The Trinity Hospital Hill Run begins at 7 a.m. June 6 at Crown Center. The event, which has been recognized by *Runner's World* magazine, includes a half-marathon, a 12-kilometer race and a 5-kilometer race. A pre-race party is scheduled for the night before the races. For registration information, call (816) 274-3635 or go to Crown Center's Web site, www.crowncenter.com.
The Kansas City International Jazz Festival is scheduled for June 25-27 in Crown Center Square. Local and nationally known musicians will perform. Previous performers have included Pete Fountain, Joe Lovano and Dee Dee Bridgewater. For ticket information, call (816) 931-0222 or 1-888-337-8111.

Japanese restaurant offers unique dining experience
Special to the Kansan
Bv Yoshitaka Ebisawa
Welcome by Japanese warmth and huge bamboos, guests would feel as if they have stepped into the Orient.
Kabuki Japanese Restaurant is on the lower level in Crown Center, 245 Grand Ave., Kansas City, Mo., and its paper screens and framed calligraphies on the wall add to the atmosphere.
Patrons of Kabuki Japanese Restaurant can choose to eat at one of the three sections: restaurant, bar or sushi bar.
The sushi bar, where the chefs
make sushi in front of guests, is the most popular section in Kabuki.
Sayoko Shadley has been working at Kabuki as a waitress for 14 years and said that she had noticed that Americans' reactions to sushi had changed.
"Americans seemed to be reluctant to eat raw fish 14 years ago," she said. "But we see some American experts in sushi recently. One of our regular guests likes hamachi (yellowtail) very much, so he is called 'Mr. Hamachi.'"
Kabuki also has some "zashiki" — a room with tatami mats — in the restaurant section for those who want to experience Japanese culture. In Japan, people sit either upright or crossed-legged on zashiki. In Kabuki guests are able to sit as if they sit on a chair, because the areas below the tables are below floor level.
The menu at Kabuki Japanese Restaurant includes sushi, yakitori, which is broiled chicken and vegetables on a skewer; tempura, which is deep-fried shrimp, fillet of fish and garden fresh vegetables; and sukiyaki.
The bar serves sake (Japanese rice wine), Japanese spirits and beers, as well as domestic alcohol.
Robert and Kisela Charlotte, both of Gladstone, Mo., often come to the restaurant because they like the food.
KABUKI RESTAURANT
Kabuki Japanese Restaurant's lunch hours are 11:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. Monday through Friday and noon to 2 p.m. Saturday. The dinner hours are 5:30 to 10 p.m. Monday through Thursday, 5:30 to 11 p.m. Friday and Saturday and 5 to 10 p.m. Sunday
"This place is very warm to people," Robert Charolte said.

Earth Day celebrants to 'party for the planet'
By Clay McCusition Special to the Kansan
KC zoo promotes event with magic, charity walk
The zoo will be host to a Party for the Planet from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday, April 17, for both entertainment and education. Visitors will be able to watch performances on a main stage or visit dozens of booths showcasing fun ways to help the planet.
All creatures great and small will help visitors at the Kansas City Zoo celebrate Earth Day.
This year Steve Trash, a magician from Ohio, will be featured on the main stage. Trash uses environmental themes as an integral part of his act. City in Motion, a Kansas City dance troupe, will

In addition to the main stage events, 50 to 60 booths will be set up, offering contests, prizes and activities. Groups with boots include the Nelson-Atkins Art Gallery, the Kansas City Community Gardens and the Environmental Protection Agency.
The party will be preceded by a charity walk, organized by Bridging the Gap, a local nonprofit agency focused on environmental education.
Proceeds from the walk will benefit the Choose Environmental Excellence Campaign, Bridging the Gap's education program. The three-mile walk through the zoo will begin at 9 a.m. A $15 registration fee is required, and participants will receive admission to the zoo for the day, a tote bag and snacks.
Bridging the Gap also helps organize the Party for the Planet event.
"It makes our message a bit easier to deliver," said Jeanne Calkins, program manager for the group.
Rendina, who started the Party for the Planet three years ago along with Bridging the Gap, said the event had received positive public response. About 7,000 people attended last year.

Sidewalk campaigns unwelcome
HARMFUL
Ask US
For INFO
Some students voice concerns about activities on election days
By Nadia Mustafa
nmustafa@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
After the first day of Student Senate elections yesterday, some candidates and other students were skeptical about the election commission's decision this year to allow sidewalk campaigning.
Despite the rainy weather, students were almost always lined up to vote at the eight polling sites around campus. But along sidewalks, not far
from students penciling in their votes on ballots, stood candidates distributing campaign fliers to passers-by.
Nicole Kirby, Lansing junior, tried to avoid candidates campaigning on the sidewalk on her way to class yesterday by steering clear of Wesco Beach. She said that she preferred last year's policy that required candidates to stand on the grass, instead of sidewalks.
"I feel like they're pushing things on me," Kirby said. "By the day of elections, I've
already made up my mind.
It's a privacy issue — they're intrusive and annoying."
Ramona DeNies, Oswego,
Ore., junior, said that she
didn't think sidewalk campa-
igning accomplished
much.
Jennifer Watkins, elections commissioner, did not know
"I have been studiously avoiding people bearing fliers because I don't feel that the proliferation of papers is going to increase awareness of the issues," she said.
Candidates are required to wear numbered buttons during elections so that students who feel harassed can report them to the commission.
of any student complaints yesterday about sidewalk harassment. She said that she was satisfied with the commission's decision to allow sidewalk campaigning.
Delta Force candidates took turns yesterday sporting two sandwich boards that read, "No harassment. Ask us for info. Visit April 14 and 15. Delta Force."
Nicole Skalla, Delta Force candidate for College of Liberal Arts and Sciences senator, said that the reason for the sandwich boards was that Delta Force candidates did not want to harass students. Instead, she said, students could voluntarily ask candidates for information.
"Senate elections are very important, but the more you harass people, the less important it seems," Skalla said. "We just seem like resume builders."
Thomas Franklin, YOU candidate for journalism senator, said that he would not hand out filers or talk to students unless they made eye contact with him.
"I don't want to be looked at like the credit-card people at Wesco Beach." he said.
■ Polling sites at Gertrude Sellards-Pearson and Oliver halls will be open from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. All other polling sites will be open from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.
Senators, officials try to cooperate if they disagree
— Edited by Melody Arc
By Kristi Reimer
kreimer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Although Student Senate and University administrators don't always agree on the issues, they have worked hard to maintain a relationship of trust and cooperation, representatives of both groups said.
"An adversarial role will get students nothing," said Kevin Yoder, student body president. "We can disagree, but we try to do it in a way that will be productive."
Conflicts between Student Senate and University
• HUMANITY
Dear Student Senate, I am writing to you about the recent conflict between our Student Senate and the University. We are deeply concerned about the impact of this conflict on our students and the university community.
• ENGINEERING
In order to ensure that our engineering programs remain competitive, we are seeking a solution to resolve any disagreements that arise between the Student Senate and the University.
• WORK-LIFE
We are committed to providing students with opportunities to balance their academic and professional life. We are also committed to fostering a collaborative environment where students can work together effectively.
• STAFF-OF-STUDENTS
The Student Senate is responsible for managing the student body in the university. We want to ensure that students have a positive experience and are able to perform well in our academic programs.
A strong working relationship is necessary because no Student Senate decision goes into effect until it gains the approval of the chancellor and the provost. On the other hand, it is difficult for administrators to pitch ideas to the Board of Regents that don't have student support.
So, what happens when student representatives and administrators are in opposite corners? Not a fight, the groups say, but negotiation and dialogue.
Heather Fields / KANSAN
At first, the administration said the University could not afford a new building because it had higher priorities. But Student Senate took up the issue and worked with the University to create a plan that would make construction possible. The new child-care center is scheduled to open at Stouffer Place in 2000.
"Yes, we do have disagreements from time to time," said Chancellor Robert Hemenway. "We try to resolve them, but if we can't, we have to say we respect each other's positions."
A recent example of successful negotiation was the decision last year to build a new child-care center to ease space limitations at the current center across from the Kansas Union.
"Eventually we found a way to fund the project, and we're well along." Hemenay said. "We should be breaking ground before too long."
He said the University had gone against students on a fee increase only one time. About 20 years ago, Student Senate had decided not to finance women's intercollegiate athletics. Because the University had to comply with Title IX legislation mandating equity in athletics funding, it raised students fees without Senate's approval.
"I tell people in my division that if you can't convince students that an increase is justified, you're not going to get it," Ambler said.
Most conflicts focus on increases in student fees, said David Ambler, vice chancellor for student affairs and adviser to the student body president for 22 years.
"That was the only time we've taken
a fee increase to the Board of Regents that Student Senate hadn't agreed to or initiated." Ambler said.
Two such decisions this year were a transition to the smart card student identification system and the signing of a contract with Coca-Cola to be the University's exclusive soft-drink provider.
Sometimes the administration approaches Student Senate looking for support and input, as in the case of an alcohol-awareness campaign launched last fall, Yoder said. But administrators have made some decisions with only nominal student involvement or none at all, and Senate has voiced protest.
Ca$h for brain$
Geoffrey Gitchell, Hutchinson junior, is one of many students who have cashed in on merit-based scholarships awarded by the University of Kansas.
When the administration makes a decision without student support, Amber said, "The rubber hits the road pretty hard.
"The administration signed contracts that affected students without student approval," Yoder said. "We should have had a more active voice."
But he said students did have recourse if they felt their rights were being severely infringed upon. Student Senate could try to sway the Board of Regents, lobby the Legislature or file a lawsuit against the University.
"I don't want to be seen as a whiny student who complains all the time," Yoder said. "I'd rather be known as someone who can rationally discuss problems and work them out."
"Students did not feel genuinely brought into the negotiations," Ambler said.
Yoder said Student Senate had never pushed through a proposal that the administration didn't want—that it would be impossible.

Yoder said he would prefer to work with the administration instead of against it.

Students bank on excess funds collected from scholarships
$100,000,000,0
When he saw that his SAT scores added up to 1550, Robert Chamberlain knew that there were some scholarships in his future. He didn't really think he'd come out ahead on his college career, though.
But he has. This semester the Topeka freshman picked up a refund check for funds left over from his National Merit Scholarship.
An Army ROTC four-year scholarship covers Chamberlain's tuition costs, and he gets $2,500 a semester as a National Merit Scholar. That comes out to money left over, and he can spend the left-over money any way he likes.
Chamberlain is not alone. Some top University of Kansas students say their scholarship checks are big enough to cover the occasional ski trip or high-tech computer.
Other merit-based scholarship
winners are fattening their wallets and building their wardrobes with thousands of dollars left over after educational expenses. It's part of the payoff when recruiting top scholars, administrators say.
It's not about need. It's about brains.
And unlike students on athletic scholarships, these scholars don't have to worry about pesky NCAA rules — only the Internal Revenue Service.
Scholarships paid for Christina Vizcarra's ski trips and her flight to Jamaica for spring break last year.
Vizarair, Leawood sophomore, said that she has had a surplus of scholarship money every semester she has attended the University. All of her expenses, with money left over, were covered by scholarships from the general University scholarship fund,
School of Engineering and a private company. That means her University refund is simply spending cash.
Geoffrey Gitchell, Hutchinson junior, bought a new high-speed computer with his University scholarship refund check.
She said that she saw her windfall as a payback for the years when she was so active in school that she didn't have time to work, and didn't earn any money.
"For the first time, I have money in my pocket." Vizcara said.
University officials say that it's OK to spend the cash.
"There is nothing wrong if a student gets a refund check from a University-awarded scholarship," said Alan Cerveny, director of Admissions and Scholarship.
In high school, Vizcarra was involved with several school organizations, maintained good grades, kept late hours practicing the viola

KC suburb cleans streets after train derailment
PARKVILLE, Mo. — Business owners and railroad clean-up crews spent yesterday cleaning 3,000 tons of coal that spilled in a Tuesday train derailment in the streets of the Kansas City suburb.
Officials with Burlington Northern Santa Fe still were investigating what caused the train accident, which occurred at 11:40 p.m Tuesday. No one was injured.
The railroad plans to examine the latest inspection reports on the train, cars and tracks, said spokesman Steve Forsberg.
The 121-car train was en route from Lincoln, Neb., to Kansas City, Kan., and traveling at about 31 miles per hour.
"Speed does not appear to be a factor at all," Forsberg said.
When the train derailed, 26 cars buckled into the space of one city block, dumping their cargo and submerging four automobiles on the street in coal.
"It wiped out two buildings that were closest to the tracks," said City Administrator Pat Hawver. "There's coal everywhere," Hawver said.
The damaged buildings housed retail stores and artists' space.

Chilean immigrant wins $197 million jackpot
BRAINTREE, Mass. — In an instant, Maria Grasso went from being a baby sitter for a millionaire to millionaire baby sitter.
The 54-year-old Chilean immigrant came forward yesterday to claim the $197 million Big Game jackpot, the world's biggest lottery prize ever won by one person. She beat odds of 76 million-to-1.
She decided to take the money in a lump sum of $104 million — $70.2 million after taxes — instead of in 26 annual installments.

"I'm a very down-to-earth person," she said.
Until she quit last week, Grasso worked for the family of Chris Gabriell, a Boston venture capitalist who ran for Congress last year. Since 1996, she has lived in the family's Beacon Hill townhouse and looked after Gabriell's children.
"She's the kind of person who deserves a good turn in life," said Gabrielli, who is worth somewhere between $25 million and $125 million himself, according to campaign records.
Grasso, who is one of six children came to the United States in 1971, earned her high school equivalency diploma in 1976 and became a U.S. citizen in 1984. She has worked as a teaching assistant for the mentally handicapped.
PONTIAC, Mich. — Completing three days on the witness stand, talk show host Jenny Jones said yesterday that a man who killed a fellow guest after a segment on gay crushes was an adult and made "an informed choice" to appear on the program.
TV host Jenny Jones defends show in lawsuit
Jones stepped down after 12 hours of testimony in the $50 million lawsuit against her show.
Jones, who is not being sued,
insisted that she and her show
were not responsible for the 1995
shooting death of Scott Amedure, a
gay man who had described his
crush on fellow guest Jonathan
Schmitz during a Jenny Jones Show
taping. Schmitz has said he was
heterosexual and was humiliated.
Schmitz was convicted in 1996 of second-degree murder. The conviction was overturned because of an error in jury selection, and his retrial is set for Aug. 19.
In the lawsuit against the show and its producer, Warner Bros., Amedure's family accuses The Jenny Jones Show of tricking a mentally troubled Schmitz into appearing on the program and leading him to believe his admirer was a woman.
Jones said said that the show did not exploit people and that Schmitz was an adult who made an informed decision.
"He knew the person with the crush could be a man or a woman," she said. "He was given enough information to make an informed choice."

Campaign fliers cause complaint
By Nadia Mustafa
nmustafa@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
About 800 off-campus residents
woke up to find the YOU coalition's literature at their doorsteps yesterday morning.
YOU candidates and supporters made early Wednesday morning runs to about 10 apartment complexes around Lawrence.
Mary Koch
some of which disallow soliciting
some of which disallow soliciting.
The candidates and supporters attached campaign-related door hangers to residents' doorknobs, in some cases, slipped them under doors. The red door hangers contained a list of YOU candidates and urged students to vote in Student Senate elections yesterday and today.
Amy Cummins, incumbent Delta Force candidate for graduate senator.
filed a complaint to the elections commission yesterday against YOU. She said that it violated the elections code by posting campaign materials on off-campus property without the consent of the occupant, owner or manager.
The elections commission's hearing board will review the complaint at 7:30 p.m. Monday at the International Room in the Kansas Union at the same closed hearing for the recreation task force's complaint against Delta Force.
Cummins litters at Berkley Flats. 1123 Indiana St., which is one of the complexes to which YOU distributed campaign materials.
in the complaint, she said that YOU's late-night visits were unawanted nuisances for herself and her neighbors. Although she said that she was friendly toward all candidates, she said she felt it was her responsibility to report YOU's violations.
Korb Maxwell, YOU candidate for student body president, said that the distribution of door hangers to complexes with no soliciting policies was an honest mistake. He said that although he told them not to go to those complexes, there were more
than 50 YOU candidates and supporters distributing campaign materials, many of whom were not aware of elections code regulations.
Maxwell: Said it was a mistake, would apologize
agers and pick up the literature they had distributed.
"We made a mistake, we slipped up." Maxwell said. "We'll do whatever we can to make it right."
David Corliss, director of legal services for the city of Lawrence, said that YOU might have violated state trespassing laws. But, he said, only the property owner could file a claim.
Brandy Estabrooks, Berkeley Flats
manager, said that the door hangers had made a mess at her complex. She said she doubted that she would be able to take any recourse, but she contacted members of YOU yesterday to voice her disapproval.
"It's a pain, and we ask people not to do that." Estabrooks said. "Residents have complained. It's really frustrating when we have a beautiful looking property, and people feel the need to come and litter it."
Last year, the Campus Cause coalition was fined $50 for the same violation and $1,200 for not removing campaign posters that were visible from a polling site.
Two years ago, Dede Seibel, then Unite candidate for Nunemaker senator and now YOU candidate for student body vice president, was fined $10 for slipping campaign letters beneath the doors of Gertrude Sellards-Pearson Hall and Corbin Hall residents.
Jennifer Watkins, elections commissioner, said that the individuals who distributed the door hangers could be fined since they did not secure permission from the complexes' landlords.

Anti-hate crimes rally unites students
By T.J. Johnson
tjohnson@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
Despite the cold rain and wind yesterday, about 25 people gathered outside the Kansas Union for a rally against hate crimes.
rally against hate crimes.
The rally was coordinated by the campus group Politically Active Queens as a part of Pride Week and included several speakers from campus organizations who shared their views on hate crimes and offered possible solutions to the problem. Martin Decker, Pittsburgh junior and co-
Marvin Decker, Pittsburgh junior and co-president of PAQ, began the rally by reminding people of the hate crimes which have happened during the past year and addressing the effects of these crimes.
"This year we have witnessed many disturbing crimes motivated by hate, and whether these crimes are on the basis of race, religion, sexuality, ethnicity, cultural identification, gender identity or expression, they affect us all by limiting our freedom of expression and weakening our sense of safety when we walk on our streets and on our campuses," Decker said.
Seth Hoffman, Delta Force candidate for student body president, offered a prayer for an end to hate crimes and a change in the attitudes of politicians who ignored them.
Ophra Leyser, co-president of the GTAC Coalition, stressed the need for unity among people who are being oppressed in order to fight hate crimes.
"Tear open their hearts. Let them burn with compassion. Stun them with understanding. Ravage their violent, political, cynical souls. Make them wiser, better, braver people." Hoffman said.
"I think what we need to commit ourselves to is a general goal that we all have, and that is one of justice and true democracy," Leyser said.
Korb Maxwell, YOU candidate for student body president, said he appreciated the spirit of the rally and said he hoped the movement against hate crimes would continue to grow.
'I think that what's really good here is the spirit that we are all here in. There are elections going on right now, but that people can come together here
and in a spirit of bipartisanship, speak out against something we all abhor."
Brenda Chung of the Center for Community Outreach and Senior Resident Assistant for Diversity in McCollum Hall, stressed the need to provide a world free of hate for children.
"Are we doing our job to provide a safe world for them?" Chung asked.
People who listened to the speeches said the varied messages and view points presented by the
speakers of the rally helped to unify the message against hate crimes.
Amy Cummins, Newport, N.C., graduate student and Delta Force candidate for graduate senator, said she felt that the speeches would raise awareness of the various types of hate crimes.
"I think that this rally today drew attention to the fact that hate crimes do occur in many shapes and forms." Cummins said.

Editorial
Votes to affect campus safety issue
When students go to the polls, they should be aware that their vote will influence campus safety.
Last year's referendum on the Student Senate election ballot asked students to voice whether they would be interested in a campus Safewalk program. The referendum passed and Kevin Yoder, student body president, appointed the Campus Safety Advisory Board to evaluate safety at the University and determine which programs were necessary.
Now, one year later, Safewalk still is a major issue.
Students should consider that the president and vice president they elect have plans to improve campus safety. Delta Force wants Safewalk on campus
Coalitions focus on Saferide, implementing Safewalk.
and YOU wants to expand Saferide. Both coalitions' leaders would aim at enacting their respective platforms.
Yoder said the Campus Safety Advisory Board, headed by Aaron Profitf, would research other universities using a Safewalk program, find out where students did not feel safe and see what students wanted done to help them feel more secure.
After two months of research, Profitt said the board had found programs at other universities, such as the University of Colorado and University of Iowa,
to be scarcely utilized. He said that as few as 10 people per month used the program. Profitt also cited examples of failed Safewalk programs from the University's own past. He said the Army ROTC attempted a safe-walk program three or four years ago, but because of low usage it folded.
Proffit said he also worried about the cost efficiency of a program which would require extensive training, higher salaries for higher qualifications, equipment and wages for an unknown number of employees.
unknown number of employees Students should keep in mind that their vote may determine whether Safewalk is implemented or Saferide is expanded. It may mean the difference between a comfortable ride home or a long walk to the car.

Students deserve more data about center
Feedback
The other day, while seated outside Wescoe, some Delta Force representatives handed me a flier that talked about sending the proposal for a new rec center back to the floor. Although I feel like we desperately need a new rec center, I'm not sure what exactly is going to be included and excluded in the new rec center, should it be voted in.
I have a feeling that many of the other patrons of Robinson have not been informed either and would vote the proposal in simply because it states that we will have a new rec center. This is an injustice. The other injustice is the sad state of our center. I have visited the rec center at K-State, and it is incredible. It is spacious and has more equipment than Robinson.
Robinson:
My question is: Why doesn't the University of Kansas have something similar or better? We always like to claim that our sports programs are better or improving, but what about those who aren't in organized sports enjoy working out? Shall we slight these people simply
because they aren't on national television and aren't sponsored by Coca-Cola.
Which brings me to my last comment: Coca-Cola is ubiquitous on this campus. In fact, I would almost call the University a corporate holding of Coca-Cola.
Where exactly does the money go that we receive from this company? The University is in need of a new rec center, and I think that before we vote, the KU population should be informed in detail.
britta Ernst
Topeka junior
Being an avid reader of the Kansas, an active student member of Student Senate and SenEx, and the Executive Director of the Graduate and Professional Association, I thought I was well-informed about the recreation center proposal and that I understood it well. I was confident in the vote I was planning to cast. Then I read Kevin Yoder's letter to the editor yesterday, and now I am confused.
Yoder's letter confuses recreation center issue
urging a no vote to the rec center proposal: "the editorial notes that there is no guarantee that Robinson would remain available to students." He continues that "This is the reason a new recreation center should be built." Okay, so I'm thinking, Robinson is going to close; this is why the new center is so important.
First he quotes the Kansan's editorial
A few paragraphs later, I read that "Robinson will remain open. It will not close. No one from the University has ever stated that it will close." "Huh? I thought that the new rec center was built because Robinson was going to close. But now I'm supposed to believe that a new center will be better because students will be able to use both. It will be like two for one. You can understand my confusion.
Until the people pushing this fee hike come forward with a consistent and coherent message, I am left to believe that they do not have a consistent nor coherent plan. I feel that on I have no alternative but to vote no on this proposal.

Apathy toward Senate steals students' power
Perspective
Jenny Lefkowitz
If you have general questions or comments,
e-mail the page staff (opinion@kansan.com)
or call 864-4924.
We should all know by now that Student Senate is the single most influential student organization on cam
pus. Despite its influence, feel an unnecessary amount of apathy toward Senate.
Potential senators may have obstacles, such as outreach and apathy, to face before they bring the student body all the way to excitement.
The presidential and vice presidential candidates from both coalitions have acknowledged this apathy and have addressed it. Dede Seibel, YOU vice presidential candidate, said the coalition had chosen issues that the students would get excited about.
Today, all that's asked is that we give them a chance.
That may be. Potential senators may
Put aside old judgments of Student Senate, and I think you'll see impressive candidates from both coalitions. Take a look at Monday's Kansan, and try to learn what the candidates are about.
Compared with previous elections, a sincere interest in and concern for bettering our University seems to be consistent among the individuals running.
among the individuals Go vote. Take part in electing some of these individuals. Give them the chance to make the University a little better, a little more livable and a little closer to perfection They aren't asking much: Just make an educated vote.
I also am asking a little bit more: Once we have elected our senators, demand that they represent the student body. Demand that they are visible on campus and make strong efforts to get a hold of what this University needs.

virtually painless.
For the students who still believe that Senate is a formality filled with resume-building, self-interested individuals who bicker, please consider the following: with low voter turnout, it doesn't take many votes to land a spot on Senate. That's how the self-serving, resume-building candidates get elected.

Tonight, after the celebration is finished,
let's all take off the campaign buttons and
then get to work.
As newly elected senators, it will be your responsibility to represent the concerns of the students who elected you. Leave campaign politics at the door and do the job for the job's sake.
All of us. As KU students, it is our responsibility to be aware of the events and issues surrounding and encompassing the University. This includes supporting our Senate and being aware of what it is doing.
the job's sake.
To the students who simply haven't had time to vote: It takes three minutes, and it's virtually painless.
If an effort is made to truly represent the student body, no one will need a plan to increase student support. There may not be a need to make the annual plea for votes next year.
The solution is simple.
elected.
Forget that we only see most of our senators this time of year. Forget that partisan bickering will, without a doubt, take place.
Sometimes, highly unqualified candidates receive senate seats because students who do vote aren't educated.
The solution is shape Senators must do more than go to meetings. They must meet with constituents and know who those constituents are.
All of us.
There have been outstanding individuals standing on campus asking for the chance to serve on our Senate.
We should choose to give that chance to the candidates who will serve us best.

Today's election issues deserve informed voters
The first thing I said to Elections Commission Chairwoman Amanda Weinberg when I met her at LeaderShape this January was, "Oh, you have to deal with the crazy people."
They are crazy, voluntarily entering Senate, but they've been nice about holding back their insanity this year: no cars flipped and perhaps the cleanest campaign I've seen of late.

It's nothing against Amanda, the coalitions, my own editor or Jamie (see above). I think it's more important to see people vote responsibly than to see people vote.

wonderful to get as many people as possible making their voice heard on Election Day.
making their voice heard on Election Day. However, I personally don't want most of you to vote today.
There are a lot of important issues, such as the new recreation center, at stake today. But the issue that may be more important is who to vote for in the elections.
The fact is that the people voted in are responsible for allocating nearly a million dollars, and the student body president is important for representing the students to the chancellor, the Kansas Legislature and the Board of Regents.
These are important decisions to make, not ones to be taken lightly.
The issues both coalitions are taking on are relatively similar. Both want to do something about citywide busing. Both want students to feel safe on campus. The question is: Who's going to get something done?
going to get something else. YOU presidential candidate Korb Maxwell probably is right when he says that these are efforts that will need coordination and an organized lobby effort. On the other hand, these issues were brought up by Delta Force members, and they have been furthered by the actions of these members.
At the very least, I think one should weigh the commitment of someone who has been fighting for a year for these issues versus someone who took the issue because students being surveyed said they wanted it.
being surveyed by the senate. There also are things that frustrate me personally about coaltion that I've noticed in the debates. I kept getting frustrated when the YOU coalition took credit for everything Senate has done in the past year as if Maxwell, Seibel and their hand-chosen Senate candidates — only a few of whom are incumbents were off making policy decisions by themselves. This is even more ridiculous when you consider that they're running on the idea that they're bringing fresh faces to Senate, but also claim they have more experience.
These are the facts: It's going to be small. It's going to be expensive. It's not going to accomplish what it's meant to do. If you really want to use an academic building during class time, you could always take a class.
The group of people the recreation center proposal seems targeted toward are those paying exorbitant fees for private clubs. I feel sorry that they pay these fees, but it's their choice. I've used Robinson about four times in my four years. I don't think people like me should be funding someone else's health kick.
These are my opinions, and I think they're relatively well-informed them, but don't blindly adopt them as your own. If you've decided you want to vote for the most qualified candidate and not your fraternity president, go out and talk to some of the candidates. Pick up some campaign material. Think critically, and don't take everything at face value. Then, as an informed and willing participant, go out and vote.
claim they have no experience. I also think that in their drive to be elected, YOU is overselling the importance of Senate reaching out to students. I think this is important, but it's not a cure-all. Outreach will not solve apathy. Outreach will not cause the administration to take Senate seriously.
Delta Force frustrates me because sometimes they're too radical for their own good. I support a lot of what Delta Force stands for and what they've accomplished, but I worry that when they talk about protesting and getting rowdy, they may not be representing John Q. Student who wants to sit quietly in his room and let someone he elected take care of the issues.
center proposal, which is sloppy proposal, based on a lot of misconceptions. Perhaps I take a different route to class than Student Body President Kevin Yoder, and that's why I've never seen the students protesting in the streets demanding an upgrade to Robinson Center. What I do hear is people complaining about how expensive college is, a fact that even the YOU coalition is addressing in the form of fighting for a tuition cap.
Then, there is the now infamous recreation center proposal, which frustrates me as well.
If we could get both my goals of an informed electorate and Amanda's goal of a large electorate, that would be great. But I'd rather have a one percent turnout of voters who legitimately care than have 100 percent who are voting a certain way because someone gave them a hot dog. This election is too important.

Lectures to come to quiet close
By Chris Hopkins
By Chris Hopkins
chopkins@kansan.com
chopkins staff writer
The Heidegger Lecture Series, which began in a storm of controversy, probably will come to a quiet and tonight.
Stanley Rosen, Borden Bowne professor of philosophy at Boston University, will deliver the final speech, "Common Sense and the Goodness of Truth" at 8 at Alderson Auditorium in the Kansas Union.
Wallace Johnson, professor of East Asian languages and culture, complained nearly two months ago that naming the lecture series after the prominent philosopher and Nazi was celebratory.
M. D. M. H.
"To name a lecture after Martin Heidelger, as you would Eisenhower or Truman, is an insult to everyone." he said.
Johnson said that his complaints were not well received and that the University had decided to emphasize Heidegger's contributions to philosophy over his party affiliation.

"There frankly didn't seem to be much interest," he said. "I guess it comes down to what you want to give way to."
Thomas Tuozzo, associate professor of philosophy, and Fred Rush, assistant professor of philosophy, co-teach the class, Heidegger and the Greeks, with which the lecture series is associated.
Following Johnson's attack on the lecture series, the professors countered with a guest column in the Kansan.
"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," they said.
After Rosen delivered a speech,
"Is Thinking Spontaneous?" at 8:30
yesterday at the Walnut Room in
the Kansas Union, Tuzozo said that
he thought the lecture series and
the class had been very successful.
Tuozzo said that while the visiting lecturers didn't mention Heilegger's political affiliation in the lectures, nearly all of them mentioned it when they spoke to the class.
Johnson said that this still presented only one side of the story to the public.
"It seems to me that the University is not a place for advocates, it's a place for balanced presentation," he said.
Benjamin Sax, associate professor of history, said that he had sat in on a lot of the discussions the lecturing professors had given.
"I think they all admitted that if Heidegger was not the leading thinker of the 20th century, he was one of the leading thinkers of the 20th century," he said.
Next year's class and the lecture series will focus on feminism, and
probably won't be as controversial, Tauzzo said.
Tuzzoo said that the controversy that surrounded the lectures probably had not been a bad thing.
"One of the things that Rosen said is that 'all interesting philosophy is dangerous,'" he said.

Flashy props used in unusual sci-fi musical

'50s tunes, creativity add to Shakespeare spoof
By Ezra Sykes
esykes@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
Mary Doveton walks down the basement steps on her way to present the Klystron Generator. "This is the tech show from hell," she said.
The generator lies on a small work bench, surrounded by a cluster of other prop materials. A disco ball protrudes from within a hollow wooden cube. Two lava lamps are exposed on either side. A fog and bubble machine are still to be added, Doveton said.
The handcrafted generator is just one of many flashy props that will be used in the Lawrence Community Theatre's production of the musical "Return to the Forbidden Planet," which is a blend of sci-fi, golden oldies and Shakespeare.
The show's dialogue is a collection of Shakespearean quotations pasted together, and in some cases altered.
Other props at Tuesday night's dress rehearsal included small keyboards that were used to imitate spaceship control panels; Christmas lights that provided futuristic spaceship meters, and a robot that elided around on roller blades.
"Shall I compare thee to a Barbie Doll?" asks Dr. Prospero, inspecting the lovely Miranda.
But the Shakespearian connection isn't an original.
The musical is an adaption of the '50s sci-fi classic "The Forbidden Planet," which borrows its plot from Shakespeare's "The Tempest."
The music also is inspired by the '50s and '60s, and featured tunes include Wipeout and Good Vibrations.
The oldies songs haven't been changed much and fit nicely into the sci-fi plot. When the space-ships face the threat of blazing comets, Great Balls of Fire is sung.
Before Tuesday night's rehearsal, Ryan Hamlin sat in the dressing room eating an orange and having his stretch-knit costume filled with Styrofoam padding to bulk him up a bit.
Hamlin, Lawrence junior, plays Bosun in the play, a role he described as the Dr. Ruth West-
heimer, a famous sex therapist, of the ship.
Specially in finance counseling. Work
Since the beginning of March, Hamlin has
attended play rehearsals for three hours a night.
Hamlin explained a point in the play where actors asked the audience to help.
"There's something about not knowing exactly what's going to happen," he said. "In this play we interact with the audience, who represent other passengers on the ship."
we get to Friday, that 8 when it gets fun, he said Hamlin, who has taken part in other community theater productions as well as University of Kansas productions, said that the spontaneous nature of the musical made it exciting for him and the crowd.
The Etc. Shop
"Return to the Forbidden Planet" opens at 8 p.m. tomorrow at the Lawrence Community Theatre, 1501 Nighs Pimpster St. The play also will be performed Thursdays through Sundays until May 2. Thursday shows begin at 7:30 p.m., Friday shows at 8 p.m. and Sunday shows at 2:30 p.m.
Through an exercise-like routine called the polarity reversal drill, the audience can help save the space ship. Or more precisely, jump start the Klystron Generator.
Get some
Thursday nights are "Student nights," and students can get in for $7. Friday and Saturday nights tickets are $16 for adults and $15 for students and senior citizens. Thursday and Sunday tickets are $14 for adults and $13 for students and senior citizens.

KU students purchase laptop computers for use as learning tools
Entrepreneurs outline business plan
By Scott Hollis
Special to the Kansar
Gateway. Gateway. Gateway.
Members of KU Students In Free Enterprise returned from a regional business competition Tuesday after presenting their plan to buy personal computers to use as educational tools.
SIFE outlined an entrepreneurial plan at the Denver competition that proposed to buy 10 laptop computers to use in the community and the campus with money the group made from selling discounted business class course packets.
Although the organization did not place at the competition, Jeff Morrow, faculty adviser for SIFE, said the computers arrived yesterday and that the plan still would begin as soon as possible.
plan still would begin as soon as Pavel Maravev, president of SIFE, said the plan was to use the computers to reach community members by running seminars in high schools. The main goal is to teach students how to buy a car, take care of their finances and manage their money.

Students would be given the opportunity to receive hands-on experience with the computers and would be taught a business lesson in terms they could understand.
count unlucky stake:
"The goal of this organization is to do something good for the community using our own entrepreneurial business plan." Maraev said.
Candace Pasquale, Chicago senior, said that SIFE would be traveling to 20 high schools per year for three years teaching students how to use the laptops. When the computers are not being used in high schools, they will be used in University of Kansas business classes.
Pasquale said that SIFE financed the plan and purchased the computers at a discount rate of $499 each. The business competition, which included different SIFE chapters around the region, judged the teams on the quality and success of their business plans. Winners received cash prizes.
"The goal of the business competition was how to creatively demonstrate and teach market economy and how well you use your resources and volunteer services." Pasquale said.
Pasquale said that although SIFE had only been together for about one year, it had accomplished *a*
lot in such a short time.
"In that one year that we've been together on this, we've done a tremendous amount of work," she said. "We will continue to work on it for next year's competition."
Morrow said the organization was special because it was self-supporting.
"No one gave us any money to do this," he said.
"We're the kind of people who would rather go out and make money to do this instead of ask for it."

Professor studies origin of universe at South Pole
Winter Break a time of research for physics teacher
By Jason Walker Special to the Kansan
This winter, while most KU students and faculty were home enjoying Christmas break, David Besson, associate professor of physics, was traveling around the South Pole.
I was born in New York. I loved the city and the people. I loved being a student and going to college. I loved the sun. I loved the sunshine. I loved the sunshine that rays on my face. I loved the sunshine that shines on my hair. I loved the sunshine that shines on my eyes. I loved the sunshine that shines on my skin. I loved the sunshine that shines on my skin. I loved the sunshine that shines on my skin. I loved the sunshine that shines on my skin. I loved the sunshine that shines on my skin. I loved the sunshine that shines on my skin.

cles. These particles, called neutrinos, fly through outer space and may be able to help scientists understand the origin of the universe.
"We are trying to learn about the mass of these neutrinos," Besson said. "It could be that a large portion of the mass in the universe is from these neutrinos, and, if so, that will be a piece in the puzzle of solving how the big bang happened."
Besson said that a neutrino is a tiny particle of energy that is virtually invisible, and millions of them pass through human bodies every second undetected. Their invisibility is called inertness, and because of it, conventional instruments can't be used to detect the presence of neutrinos. That's where the South Pole comes in.
"You need a really big target that can help detect the presence of neutrinos," Besson said. "Antarctica is covered with a big, thick layer of ice, and that is perfect."
Every now and then, Besson said, a neutrino would interact with the ice and show a spray of radiation. This radiation shows up as conventional radio waves, which are recorded by simple radio antenna and receivers buried in the ice. These radios send the waves up to the surface, where Besson records them and checks for wave patterns.
"The signals we get can tell us about where the neutrinos came from," he said. "It could be that
they were kicked out of a black hole."
A black hole is a collapsed star that has such a powerful gravitational field that not even light can escape. But Besson explained that sometimes at the outer regions of a
black hole neutrinos may pop out.
"If so, it tells us a lot about galactic evolution," he said.
Besson, who also teaches Physics 114, said that when he is in Lawrence, he still does research on the project with the help of some KU students. David Becker,
Tonganoxie sophomore, is a biology major but liked Besson as a teacher and wanted to help with his research.
"I mostly just do mechanical stuff," Becker said. "We set up conditions similar to those at the South Pole and make sure they
will hold up for the experiments."
Becker said that he was excited about working on a project that dealt with the South Pole.
"It is cool to know you are doing something that is bigger than just at KU." he said.
Besson is returning to the Amundson and Scott South Pole station next winter break and he said that while research teams are still so people at the pole found other things to do during their spare time.
"On New Year's Eve we had a party with a band playing," Besson said. "And a lot of people like to jog. They run a race called 'around the world' which is about a three-kilometer run around the pole itself. There is also a pretty big video library."
Fat substitute can't replace exercise
Besson said the temperatures at the pole are between 20 and 30 degrees below zero degrees Celsius and those wore a big fac in the climate.
"I'd drier at the pole than the Sahara desert," he said. "After a couple of days there the skin on fingers and toes begins to crack."
Along with scientists studying the astrophysics of neutrinos, Besson said that there also were people there researching the depletion of the ozone layer and the glaciers that cover it. They say that with the glaciers are lakes that the scientists think may support life, like microbes. If so, it could lead to the discovery of life on Europa, one of Jupiter's moons.

But Besson isn't worried about microbes. He's just trying to figure out how this whole universe got here.
"We're trying to figure out what happened in the first fraction of a second of creation," he said.

Special to the Kansas
Summer is approaching and for most people it means getting out shorts, sandals and, of course, bathing suits. For some people, however, spring also means that the frantic attempt to lose those few extra pounds has begun.
With all the reduced-fat and fat-free products lining the supermarket shelves these days, this process should be a cinch. right?
For a few extra dollars dieters can buy a fat-free or reduced-fat alternative to nearly every popular snack in the supermarket.
"Olestra is put together in a way so that it can pass through the body undigested." Ann Chapman, dietitian at Watkins Health Center, said. "It isn't broken down and utilized by the body."
Fat-free potato chips, tortilla chips and crackers contain a non-caloric fat replacer called olestra, which was first introduced to consumers in 1996. But scientists say not every consumer who eats foods containing a fat replacer will lose weight, because there are other important factors.
The effect is similar to what happens when one eats foods containing mineral oil or dietary fiber. These substances,
like olestra, pass through the digestive tract without being digested or adding any dietary fat or calories.
With regular fat, the body's digestive enzymes break down the fat molecules, but olestra molecules are much larger than ordinary fats and cannot be broken down.
Keri Krueger, Perry sophomore, said she had not tried the products containing olestra because she heard they could make her sick. She also said she would not spend the extra money to buy them.
Chapman said eating olestra could cause a decrease in the body's absorption of fat-soluble vitamins, such as A, D, E and K, and carotenoids like beta carotene.
Proctor & Gamble, which makes the Olean brand olestra found in Frito Lay's WOW! potato chips, has added vitamins A, D, E and K back into the products, but they have not added carotenoids, which Chapman said are also essential for health.
"Potato chips are good because they are salty and greasy," she said. "They're just not supposed to be healthy."
Despite this vitamin deficiency, Chapman said products containing olestra are not harmful unless a person eats too many.
"I wouldn't be concerned, but it's not a
good idea to eat them every single day,"
According to a Web page by the Ohio State University Food Science and Technology Department, eating Pringles made with olestra will reduce the calories per serving from 150 to 70. If a person were to replace one serving of regular Pringles every day with a serving of the fat-free version, it would take slightly more than a month to lose one pound if there were no other changes in diet or exercise.
Olestra vs. Regular Fat
Corey Peck, Olathe junior, said that he ate fat-free snacks and played basketball and performed Tae-Bo workouts in order to get in shape.
Chapmansaid.
She said it was possible to reduce fat and calorie intake by eating products with olestra if they were a replacement for something higher in fat and calories.
Despite the higher cost, a spokesperson for Dillons said that fat-free potato chips were still a strong seller in their grocery stores.
"I realize that in order to lose weight I need to both eat well and exercise," he said.
Another non-scientific factor is whether the consumer is willing to pay the extra dollar or so per package for items containing olestra.
Olestra Regular Fat
Its molecules are larger than ordinary fats and cannot be broken down. This allows it to pass through the digestive tract without being digested or adding any dietary fat or calories.
Its molecules are broken down by digestive enzymes and then utilized by the body.
Regular Pringles have 150 calories per serving compared to 70 calories per serving for fat-free Pringles.
Could cause a decrease in the body's absorption of vitamins A, D, E and K and beta carotene, which are essential for a healthy body.
"When they first came on the market it was hard for companies to keep production high enough," she said.
The spokesperson added that although the response to products, such as fat-free Pringles and WOW! potato chips, was not as strong as it was at first, the foods remained in the top 20 in sales for their product categories.
However, it is unlikely that simply eating foods containing olestra will help dieters look good in their bathing suits this summer. Experts say exercise is much more important for weight loss.
"The consumer has to decide where he or she is most comfortable cutting back on fat to increase weight loss," Chapman said.

T-shirts display effects of violence

tjohnson@kansan.com
The Clotheline Project, which was on display in the Kansas Union yesterday and will be shown again today, allows women who have been the victims of violence or their friends and family to create a T-shirt that expresses their feelings.
Most students are used to seeing T-shirts that advertise beer or their favorite bands, not T-shirts written as an emotional outlet for women and children who have experienced acts of violence and sexual assault.
The Clothesline Project is a national project which was formed in 1990 to help women to deal with acts of violence and to provide a human display of the effects of that violence. The display in the Union is a part of the Emily Taylor Women's Resource Center's Sexual Assault Awareness Week and was coordinated by Jennifer McAdam, Kansas City, Mo., senior.
She said that the display of T-t-shirts was meant to show how large the problem of violence against women is. A second purpose of the project is to show other victims of violence that they are not alone and that they can live through acts of violence, McAdam
"Basically the point of it is to help in the healing process for the people making the shirts and to show the community the extent of the problem of violence." McAdam said.
said.
Kathy Rose-Mockry, Program Director of the Emily Taylor Women's Resource Center, said that The Clothesline Project worked to incorporate the help of men and women to raise awareness of violence in the community.
"Its so moving, and people are so shocked sometimes that it's hard to digest sometimes, with all of these T-shirts," McAdam said. "I think it helps people understand if they have been in these types of situations, and they feel some kind of help knowing that people have gone through it and survived."
"We've really worked on collaborating with various units on campus, and this is a very collaborative event, so it fit in with our theme, which was men and women working together," Rose-Mockrya said.
She said the display allowed students to understand violence on another level than they would by hearing statistics about violence against women.
"I think it's one thing to see statistics about perpetrators and victims, but I think there is nothing like understanding it on a deeper, more personal level to understand the impact and the devastation that comes when you are on the receiving end of these things." Rose-Mockry said.

• For all universities, awards are contingent upon students earning a minimum grade point average
"A lot of people are deserving," she said. "I'm one of many who have worked really hard and are deserving of scholarship money."
vizcarra's package is renewable for four years, although she doesn't feel pressured to finish that soon. She'll be able to afford a fifth year.
Gittchel said that during his first two years at the University, he didn't have to worry about finding a job to cover additional expenses, because he was receiving nearly $1,000 extra each semester.
"I really didn't have to worry about money at all," he said.
Whenever he got the urge to buy a new CD, he would. As a participant in the ROTC program, Chamberlain receives a $150 housing stipend each month. However, his scholarships cover housing expenses, so he spends the ROTC money on whatever he wants.
"I buy CDs and books, go out to dinner," Chamberlain said. "I'm just wasting the money."
Even with the monthly stipend, Chamberlain works a part-time job at an athletic club for extra money.
"I could live very comfortably without working," he said. "My spending habits dictate that any extra money I have, I'll spend."
Cerveny said that there was a lot of competition between universities to attract top academic performers, and those recruits often selected their universities based on the quality of package they were offered.
Unlike athletic coaches, admissions recruiters don't have a starting position or jersey to offer high school academic standouts. Instead, universities wave dollar bills to bring all-star students to the campus.
"It's less intense than athletic recruitment, but recruiting definitely takes place." Chamberlain said.
As soon as the National Merit Scholar program allowed universities to contact finalists, Chamberlain said his mail started piling up and his phone started rining.
He said that every few weeks the University would call him and inquire about how things were progressing.
The University of Kansas was not the only school trying to recruit Chamberlain. Several other Big XII Schools, including Kansas State and Oklahoma State, the University of California-Los Angeles and George Washington University were offering big scholarships
"Universities are in competition with one another for good students," he said.
Some universities are better competitors than others. Cerveny said that although the University of Kansas valued National Merit scholars, the University does not offer the most complete scholarship package to potential students. For National Merit Scholars, the University pays the tuition and student fees and housing costs, if students live in a scholarship hall.
Chamberlain said that officials at Oklahoma State, the Big XII School that has the largest number of National Merit Scholars, made it obvious that he would be treated as a premier student. Officials let him know that they would open classes that were closed and would help him take care of any roommate or housing issues.
issues.
Vizcarra said that the merit-based scholarships that officials promised her were the determining factor in choosing to attend the University of Kansas.
All these top scholars can thank Chancellor Robert Hemenway for their lifestyles. When Hemenway arrived at the University in 1995, he made it a goal to increase the number of National Merit Scholars enrolled at the University.
Cerveny said that attracting National Merit Scholars was now a recruiting priority.
The University has increased the package National Merit Scholars receive and also has reorganized the
recruiting process so that scholarships are now handled by the admissions office.

The total amount of scholarship money available also has increased. In 1995 the Kansas University Endowment Association provided $8.9 million in total scholarship support, and in 1998, if gave $12 million.
"The University has made scholarship money a top priority, and the Endowment Association has put a lot of time and energy into being able to provide it," said John Scarfe, director of communications at the Endowment Association.
The University has set millions aside to award merit-based scholarships, and applicants don't have to show financial need, Cerveny said.
Searcff said that, of the total scholarship support donated by the Endowment Association, 70 percent went toward awarding merit scholarships, and the remainder went to merit plus need-based awards.
in fairness, we need, so we need,
"We do allow stacking of scholarships, so there is no limit to the amount of merit-based scholarships a student can receive from the University," he said.
Cerveny said that although some students, such as Vizcarra, did receive scholarship money that exceeded University tuition and living costs, the number was low compared to scholarship students who did not.
"There are a lot of students receiving scholarships that still have to work to help pay for school," he said.
There is a dark side to being a brain recruit. Unlike sports scholarships that are the same whether you start or ride the bench, fail to measure up on a merit
schol- arship and you're out the door. Scholarship students are required to maintain above-average grades and go through an academic review process before scholarships are renewed.Cerveny said.
Gitchek knows this only too well. He slipped just below the 3.5 minimum grade point average and lost his scholarships. He now has worry about repaying student loans after he walks down the Hill to receive his diploma.
He said that although he thought about moving into nicer living accommodations when he was receiving his scholarships, he didn't because he was uncertain of the future.
"I was never absolutely certain I'd be getting my scholarships the next year," he said.
Nintendo ship it now! "It was nice while it all lasted." But, he said, "it was nice while it all lasted."
Scholarship award money taxable
Students cashing in on scholarship money should be reporting their awards to the government.
Michelle Kessler, associate director and attorney for Legal Services for Students, said that any monetary award that exceeded a student's tuition, books and required fees must be claimed as income on the individual's tax return.
That means money designated as housing stipends must also be claimed.
superiors insist that we have a line to put scholarships in, so they just need to be added into their wages," Kessler said.
If the Internal Revenue Service knows that a student is receiving scholarships in excess of
tuition, books and fees, it will contact the student with either an amount they need to pay, or it will have the student refuge his or her taxes to determine the amount of money needed to pay as taxes on the awards.
"Most students know that there may be some consequences if the awards are not reported," she said.
Kessler said that on most scholarship refund checks issued by the University, there was a statement on the stub that stated that the money could be taxable.
International students receiving scholarships also are required to report their awards to the IRS. If they fail to do so, they face consequences similar to U.S. students.

Sure, college basketball makes the let-down a little less severe, but even that has now passed. And, as much as I love baseball, it just doesn't give me that warm, fuzzy feeling that a weekend worth of gridiron action does.

tunity to get a good feel for Gunther Cunningham and his new regime.
While a quarterback might not be the Chiefs' most pressing need, if Cade McNown is still available at the 14th pick, I wouldn't mind seeing the Chiefs snag the savvy UCLA lefty.
For the first time in what seems like an eternity, good ol' Marty won't be the ringleader of the infamous war room. However, judging from recent history, that might not be such a bad thing. The Chiefs, with the exception of Jerome Woods and Reggie Tongue, have notoriously struggled to add solid contributors on draft day. Even tight end Tony Gonzalez, who seemed like a can't miss pick, has struggled to improve.
Believe it or not, I really hope that Michael Bishop can work the same magic in the pros that he did in college.
Honestly.
Although all indications seem to point to the first pick in the draft being either Tim Couch or Akili Smith, you can't help but think that Texas running back Ricky Williams would look real good in a Browns uniform.
Speaking of Ricky Williams..
As good as Williams is, Mike Ditka's wild offer to mortgage the farm to trade up and pick the Heisman Trophy winner makes me wonder if Iron Mike has completely lost all of his marbles.
Sure, Williams likely will be a great NFL running back. Anyone who saw him play in college knows he is as good as the game has seen in a long time. But, one misstep, one wrong cut, one awkward tackle on the Superdome's unforgiving turf and Williams' most valuable asset — his legs
That's a risk that just isn't worth taking.

That's a risk that just isn't worth taking.
As much as I like to ream the Chicago Bears for their complete ineptitude — on and off the field — it would be nice to see Syracuse quarterback Donavan McNabb wearing the blue and orange. McNabb, a Windy City native, would bring some much-needed excitement to an increasingly dreary Soldier Field.
Of course, when Erik Kramer is your quarterback, even I could make things more interesting if they gave me a few snaps.
I'm pretty sure Trazelle Jenkins was manning the weed-eater for the Blundin Lawn Care Service.

As annoying as Kiper is, you have to give him credit. He secured himself an occupation where all he does is watch college football, find out juicy gossip, and once a year, sit around for eight hours and talk about the NFL draft.
Maybe I can get an internship. You listening. Mel?

She is just the third Kansas female track athlete to earn three All-America honors, and senior Candy Mason earned those honors the hard way.
"I worked my butt off," she said.
Growing up in Nevada, Mo., Mason became the first person from her family to compete in college athletics. None of her four older siblings played sports, but she found sports irresistible.
She competed in her first track meet at the age of 10, and spent her summers traveling and training for track.
She grew into a self-described "Amazon woman," 5-10-inch and 115 pounds by her senior year of high school.
A star athlete in high school, she convinced herself she would not be able to compete at the next level if she focused on
"I always get underestimated because of my size. It just helps motivate me." she said.
just one event.
She was wrong.
As a heptathlete, Mason competes in the shot put, long jump, high jump, javelin, 110-meter hurdles, 200-meter dash and the 800-meter run during a two-day period. Points are scored depending on how an athlete places in each event, and the points are added to determine who wins the competition.
"She's a one-lady track team,' said coach Gayle Schwartz. "When she came here, we knew she was a very good athlete, but the last two years she's just been awesome."
In that time Mason has established school records in the heptathlon and the pentathlon, as well as top five marks in the long jump, javelin and the pole vault. She held the pole-vault record until this season. She was named Big 12 Indoor Performer and the Outdoor Performer of the year in 1998.
"She's gone through her share of tough times — last

year and this year with her back. It's been tough on her," Schwartz said.
"Sometimes when I throw now, my thumb'll slip out of place when I throw. It's pretty creepy."
She's had a stress fracture in her shin, ripped tendons in her foot, dislocated her toe last year and fell on her neck during practice two weeks ago, causing her back to stiffen.
"She's great because she's one of the most determined athletes I've ever met. But she's way too skinny to throw the javelin the way she does."
Mason has managed to add 40

"Once, before I came to Kansas, I broke my thumb, and it made it really hard to throw a shotput," she said.

"And I love to eat. Sometimes I wonder how I lose any weight at all," she said.
Her appearance can deceive her opponents.
Other athletes, like shot put world-record holder John Godina, are more respectful.
During a meet last year, Mason was warming up in the same area as Godina. She threw after him, retrieved her shot, and headed for the back of the line.
Godina called out from the front and told Mason to go ahead of him.
Somewhat embarrassed, Mason wondered why.

As a senior on the Kansas men's tennis team, Kenny Powell has had to assume the leadership role, a position in which he has flourished.

tative and scholastic decisions that affect them." Powell said. "SAAC gives us a voice."
SAAC also gives the athletes an opportunity to participate in outreach programs such as fund-raisers for the Cancer Society and the Rape Crisis Center.
Three SAAC representatives from Kansas submitted applications to the selection committee describing their academic achievement, community service and leadership accomplishments. The applicants also submitted essays identifying any barriers in their lives that they had overcome to become better leaders.
The purpose of the conference is to prepare a diverse group of student a' blutes to take an active leadership role on their campuses and in their communities.
The student-athletes will discuss issues facing their peers and better communication among student-athletes, administrators, faculty and communities.
This year's conference will be held May 31 June 3 at Disney's Wide World of Sports and Coronado Springs Resort in Lake Buena Vista, Florida. The theme is "Today's Student Attendees, Tomorrow's Leaders."
"I'm looking forward to going and learning new ways to improve relations between the student athletes and the administration," Powell said. "Hopefully, I will be able to bring the ideas back to KU and help implement them in the future."
John Jefferson, director of student athletic life, said he believed Powell would represent the University well.
"Kenny is very outgoing and a good guy," Jefferson said. "I think he will represent us well and will be vocal when issues that affect our campus come up."

"He leads with good communication," Riley said. "When the team has a problem, he gets everyone to talk about it and work it out. He also tries to accentuate the good and give pants on the back when they are deserved."

Revamped women's soccer team storms through spring games
By Chris Wristen
cwristen@ukans.edu
Kansas sportwriter
What a difference the winter can make.
Just six months removed from a lastplace finish in the Big 12 Conference, the Kansas women's soccer team barely resembles its former model.
Three games into the spring season, the Jayhaws stand unblemished at 20-1. Their offense has been running full throttle, and a strong defensive effort has solidified field control, all contributing to one confident team.
"I think it's been great. We've really come together as a team this spring and we're winning games," sophomore midfielder Collee Colvin said. ("Confidence) has improved since we're winning a lot and putting goals in the back of the net."
Coach Mark Francis has been pleased with the attitude of his players as well.
"It's been real good, real positive. They're excited to just be playing outside of practice and against someone else." Francis said.
Although they are enjoying beating other opponents, practice is where much of the improvement has been made.
"They're working very hard in practice. I keep telling them the results are a direct correlation of what they've been doing on the practice field," Francis said.
After the team struggled in the fall season, there's one thing that stands out significantly about the team this spring—the big zero standing in the loss column.
"We've been working together better," Colvin said. "We're scoring more goals, so we have more confidence to shoot the ball."
"They're excited right now since they've played three games and haven't been beaten yet," Francis said. "They're being more offensive than in the past. In the fall they struggled to score goals and now they're having success in that area."
Also contributing to the team's high confidence is the growing familiarity with the new coach's system.
See TEAM on page 4B
The goal scoring has definitely been a positive for the players and they feel that each success has helped the team grow.

Irwin shooting for fourth Seniors' Championship
PALM BEACH GARDENS, Fla. — Hale Inny believes his golf game may finally be coming around — and lust in time, too.
Iwain, the three-time defending champion in the 60th annual PGA Seniors' Championship, hopes to shake a slump when the tournament opens today at the PGA National Golf Club.
Invin is 24th on the senior money list with $129,690 in five starts after finishing on top in 1997 and 1998. He has consistently ranked among the putting leaders but is not even in the top 10 this year.
“There’s nothing wrong physically, just a few mental problems,” Irwin said. “I’ve got to get out of the mechanical mode, going from A to B to C to D, and back into the ‘Let it happen’ mode.
"But it's coming around. I've been here since Sunday, and hopefully after four days of work I'll be ready to start playing good golf again."

Irwin won the past three years with scores of 280, 274 and 275 on the par-72 Champion course. That's 8-, 14- and 13-upar. His margins of victory were 2, 12 and 7 shots.
Last year, Irwin became the first
player to win the championship three consecutive years, and he equaled Eddie Williams' record of three consecutive titles in 1942, 1945 and 1946. Williams' run was interrupted by World War II.
This week Irwin could match the record of four consecutive titles in a major championship, set by Walter Hagen when he won the PGA Championship in 1924-27.

NEW YORK — It didn't take long for Dan Dierdorf to find another job. Two months after being forced out of ABC's "Monday Night Football" booth, he has returned to CBS.
Dierdorf comes back to the network he left in 1987 for "NNF" because of a loophole in his contract: He never signed it.
'Monday Night Football analyst heads to CBS
the 49 year-old Dierdorf was prepared to sit out next season, but CBS executives were able to change his mind.
CBS will team Dierdorf with Verne Lundquist as its No.2 NFL broadcasting team.
"ABC was a less-than-happy time for me and I didn't think anything would make me feel good about going back to television." Dierdorf said. "But CBS really went out of their way to convince me that it was a good move for me."
Dierdorf's contract wasn't renewed after 1.2 years as an analyst with "Monday Night Football." The former NFL offensive lineman and Hall of Famer called his final game with ABC at this year's Pro Bowl.
He is expected to make about $1.1 million a year at CBS, a significant pay cut from the $1.75 million he earned each year with ABC.
Although his new position will have a much lower profile than "Monday Night Football," it will have its advantages.

"It's a different way of doing football on Sunday afternoons," Dierdorf said. "Monday night is unique. There's much less Xs and Os. Certainly I'll be getting back to more football basics."
CBS Sports president Sean McManus said the decision was made last month but the announcement was delayed because the network has been preoccupied with the NCAA tournament and the Masters.

Athletes earn invitation to premier meet
By Mike Miller
sports@kansan.com
Kansas sportwriter
The men's and women's track teams split into two squads this weekend as the teams' most accomplished athletes will compete at the Mt. SAC Relays, in Walnut, Calif., during the next four days.
The Mt. SAC Relays have grown in the last two years, becoming one of the premier meets in the nation. "It's right up there with the Penn, Texas, Drake and Kansas Relays," said Coach Gary Schwartz.
The rest of the team will travel to Fayetteville, Ark.. to compete in the Arkansas Invitational.
The relays will feature 21 ranked men's and women's teams, including top-ranked Arkansas and four other top-five men's and women's teams. The invitational will also include international teams from Australia, China, Canada, Great Britain, Jamaica, Japan, Mexico and Venezuela.
"By competing against the best of the best, we can test our fitness and mental capabilities against top-notch competition." Schwartz said.
The Jayhawks feature top-notch athletes of their own, including five athletes ranked in the top 15 of their respective events. Three-time All-American senior Candy Mason is ranked second in the heptathlon and sixth in the pole vault, while two-time AllAmerican sophomore Andrea Branson is ranked third in the pole vault.
"This meet I get excited for — maybe because it's like a vacation — but once I get there I get a little nervous because it is such a big meet," Branson said.
Two-time All-American Scott Russell is ranked fourth in the invelin and 11th in the hammer throw.
Two-time All-American Scott Russell is ranked fourth in the javelin and 11th in the hammer throw. Sophomore Charlie Gruber is ranked fifth in the 800-meter run, while junior Brian Jensen is ranked 15th in the 10,000-meter run.
Other male athletes that will make the trip to Walnut include senior runner Kevin McGinn, sophomore hurdler Eric Patterson, junior sprinter Dave Tomlin, senior pole vaulters Colby Miller and Marc Romito, senior triple-jumper Lester Smith and sophomore decathlete Andy Morris.
Female athletes traveling to Walnut include sophomore thrower Marlea Woodman and freshman polevaulter Shannon Agee.
The tough competition includes NCAA pole-vault record holder Melissa Price. But, both Branson and Mason have begun to creep up on her record. Branson vaulted 13-1-1/2 two weeks ago and 13-0 last weekend. Mason will focus on only the pole-vault this weekend, and she is suitably pumped-up.
"We both want to beat her so badly. I think it could happen this weekend. We're both ready to jump 13-6," Mason said.
Swinging to victory

Track star looks to Olympics
Continued from page 1B
Last year, during a meet at Washington State, she was talking with Olympic gold medalist Dan O'Brien about the finer points of men's and women's athletics. Mason wondered if women would ever get a chance to compete in decathlons, like men do.
O'Brien, agast at the remark said, "Why? We already gave you the pole vault?"
Mason's jaw dropped, but she proceeded to chew out O'Brien about his insensitive remark.
On the plane ride home, her coaches reminded her that she yelled at a world-record- holding gold medalist.
"I didn't care. He deserved it," she said.
Joyner-Kersee for the first time in 1988, she was the exact opposite of O'Brien. Fresh from an Olympic gold medal performance, Joyner-Kersee signed autographs for fans, despite other pressing engagements.
When she met Jackie
"Her manager was telling her that she needed to go, but she wanted to hang out for awhile. That was really cool." Mason said.
the 2000 Olympics. After that, she'll put her degree to work and look for a coaching job.
Joyner-Kersee was one of Mason's idols growing up. As a heaptathlete, Mason wants to compete at the Olympics — just like Joyner-Kersee.
"If they gave me a job here, today, I'd take it. Wouldn't even think twice," she said.
"I've had dreams of going to the Olympics forever. That's the ultimate," she said.
But for now, she'll keep training and travel to Europe this summer to compete and coach high school athletes.
For the next two years, Mason will work towards her master's degree and train for
Meeting famous people, traveling all over the United States and Europe and a shot at the 2000 Olympics makes Mason a very busy, interesting person. But she doesn't think of it that way.
"With all the stuff I've done, my friends tell me that I should make my life into a movie," she said. "Yeah, right. It'd be so rated G, it's not even funny."

Watts is the only true defender in the group, but the four women, as well as sophomore Katie Garrity in goal, have combined to be a formidable block to opponents' offenses.
This task has been tougher since many of the players have had to play at different positions to make up

Top Indiana scorer to transfer
Recker third starter to leave Knight's team
The Associated Press
INDIANAPOLIS — Luke Recker, Indiana's leading scorer last season, has decided to transfer, becoming the third starter in the past two years to leave Bobby Knight's program.
The 6-foot-6-inch sophomore swinger said yesterday he hasn't decided which school he will attend next season.
Unlike the other recent transfers, however, Recker said the reason was his own lack of development as a player, not because of any personal conflict with the Hoosiers coach.
recruits.
"This is the toughest decision I have ever made," Recker said. "I love the state of Indiana, and playing for IU was always my lifelong dream."
Recker was Indiana's 1997 Mr. Basketball as a senior and made an oral commitment to become a Hoosier two years before that, becoming one of Knight's earliest
At Indiana, he started 63 of 66 games. Only junior guard A.J. Guyton, who also reportedly has been considering leaving early to enter the NBA draft, had more starts (64)

Reed left after the 1997 season, accusing Knight of physical and verbal abuse, and later enrolled at Southern Mississippi. In December 1997, Collier quit the team, saying he no longer could take Knight's constant criticism, and enrolled at Georgia Tech.
Recker will have to sit out one season if he transfers to another Division 1 school and then will have two years of eligibility remaining.
"It is not easy to leave my friends, my family and my home state." Recker said. "I love to play basketball, and the thought of sitting out a year kills me."
A statement from the Indiana athletic department said, "We are very sorry that Luke has decided to leave Indiana University. He has been an integral and important part of our basketball program the last two years. We will miss him. We wish him much success as he goes forward."

Kansas women row to No.22 in nation
By Matt James
Not many college teams can boast of a national ranking in only their fourth season of existence. But that's exactly what the Kansas
women's rowing team has accomplished
Rowing
Kansas team, which consists of first and second varsity eight-person boats, as well as a freshman eight and open four. With Petty setting the pace and initiating commands, Kansas finished third at Amherst, Mass., March 27th, defeating New Hampshire and
The team grabbed the No. 22 position in the country yesterday when the new
rankings were released, up six spots from two weeks ago when they claimed No. 28.
The Kansas program is off to its best start in its short history, thanks in part to co-captain Risa Petty, Lawrence junior. She is the first varsity team's stroke, a position at the stern of the boat usually given to the strongest rower.
They will try to keep the momentum going this Saturday when they race conference fee Kansas State at Manhattan.
Petty originally planned to play softball at Kansas but she soon realized that the sport she played in high school was, in her words, "Not going to be a reality" at this university. She wasn't quite ready to give up on her athletic dreams, however.
So she called head rowing coach Rob Catloth, who encouraged her to try out. It was exactly what she was looking for.
"I love it," Petty said. "It's a team sport, which is what I wanted. And it's perfect fit for me."
She's also been a great fit for the
Boston College, and finishing nine seconds behind nationally ranked Boston University and Massachusetts. Last weekend
Last weekend, the Jayhawks finished 10 seconds ahead of Texas and 10 seconds behind then 5th-ranked Southern California.
"We've been working really hard to get faster," Cattal said. "We've got a team of mostly juniors, and they're getting a lot of experience."
The team's first varsity boat consists of six juniors, a senior and a sophomore, and will be looking to sweep the Wildcats for the first time ever after defeating them during the fall season.
"It's becoming a little rivalry for us," Petty said. "We've usually split with them, so we're looking forward to it."
Petty said that the experience of this year's team is largely responsible for its success. Experience is something the Kansas State program is trying to gain as well, in only its third year as a varsity sport.
"We're not overlooking them," Petty said. "But they appear to be down this year."

Heisman home in trouble
Downtown Athletic Club fights for its financial life
The club hopes to solve its cash problems with a last-ditch plan to have a hotel built on the upper floors of its 35-story Art Deco building.
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — The home of the Heisman Trophy — Manhattan's once-exclusive but now faded Downtown Athletic Club — is fighting for life in a bitter battle in bankruptcy court.
building.
But if the deal doesn't get court approval, the property could be sold at auction to face a potentially uncertain future.
The club's director, William Dockery,
said nothing less than the fate of college
football's most prestigious award is at stake.
The Heisman Trophy, named for the club's first athletic director, former coach John Heisman, has been awarded annually by the club since 1935 to college football's best player. Past winners include O.J. Simpson, Roger Staubach and Barry Sanders. Ricky Williams of Texas won last year.
"They want to purloin our building," Dockery said yesterday, complaining about the auction proposal. "We've maintained the integrity of the Heisman Memorial Trophy for the last 65 years, and we will never allow it to be sullied."
Heisman is not part of their plan
"We never had any intention but to preserve the Heisman Trophy for future generations — that was as important to us as it was to them," said Steven Caspi, a partner in 18 West, which holds the building's mortgage and is the club's largest creditor. "Where this idea of us doing anything with the trophy came from is just malicious rumor."
Richard Born, another 18 West partner, said the proposal to auction the building even includes a clause that would allow the club to survive. "Whoever bought the building would be required to offer a lease to the club at about $12 a square foot," he said. "If they can't pay $12 a square foot for real estate, they're probably not economically viable."
But creditors say commandeering the
canyon club. The club sits on prime real estate — overlooking New York Harbor, a short walk from Wall Street. But it is long past its prime. The carpeting is frayed, plaster is falling from above the boxing ring, and membership is at 1,400 — down from 4,000 in the 1970s.
The club is proposing that the property be bought for $16 million by a Stamford, Conn., investor Chesslock-Bakker. The athletic facilities would then be sold back to the club for $8 million, while the upper 15 floors would be turned into a hotel by the Pacific and Caribbean Hotel Group.
The proposal was rejected by Judge James Garrity of U.S. Bankruptcy Court, but the club appealed the judge's decision. A hearing on the appeal is scheduled for April 22.
District attorney to investigate judging of Lewis-Holyfield fight
The Associated Press
ALBANY, N.Y. — A state Senate committee has given evidence of potential criminality in the judging of the Evander Holyfield-Lennox Lewis fight to Manhattan District Attorney Robert Morgenthau, its chairman said yesterday.
"We found some rather suspicious and peculiar developments of a potentially criminal nature which we frankly turned over to the New York (County) district attorney," state Sen. Roy Goodman said yesterday.
He said testimony on March 18 in Manhattan before the Senate Investigations Committee, which Goodman chairs.
JEFFERSON
Holyfield: New York state senators investigating fight
which Goodman chaired, had been forwarded to Morgenthau's investigators. The district attorney has convened a grand jury to look into the controversial outcome of the March 13 heavyweight title fight, which was declared a draw despite Lewis' apparent domination of the bout.
Lewis is the World Boxing Council champion. Holyfield holds the World Boxing Association and International Boxing Federation titles.
During the Senate hearing, one of the judges at the fight acknowledged that she had recently filed for bankruptcy. However, Eugenia Williams, of Atlantic City, N.J., who
scored the fight for Holyfield, denied that any attempt to help her financially was made in exchange for her judgment of the bout
Goodman said the hearing testimony also indicated that the mortgage of judge Larry O'Connell of England, who scored the fight a draw, was in "arrears."
"This raises a very important question: Should anybody be judging a big fight on which enormous amounts are wagered if they themselves have financial problems and could be subject to temptation?" Goodman told Albany radio station WROW-AM yesterday. "We are not accusing anyone of anything, but we do think that the criminal piece should be looked at by the DA."
In addition to the Senate and district attorney's investigations, the state Athletic Commission and state Attorney General Eliot Spitzer are also reviewing the Holyfield-Lewis decision and prize fighting in general.
A federal grand jury in Newark, N.J., is also reportedly investigating whether the International Boxing Federation sold rankings and arranged fights in return for kickbacks. A Hollyfield-Lewis rematch has been ordered by the JBF, the WBA and the WBC.
The Senate committee's hearing resumes tomorrow in Manhattan, with Holyfield scheduled to appear in person and Lewis via a videotape interview Goodman has already conducted.
Goodman said they will be "testifying as to their impressions not only of the fight but what needs to be done to clean up the boxing game."

Blue Devil leaves school for NBA
Brand gives up Duke for chance at pro ball
The Associated Press
DURHAM, N.C. — Even his coach knew it was time to go.
Elton Brand, who won just about every individual honor a player can, left Duke yesterday and headed to the NBA. The 6-foot-8-inch sophomore center became the first Blue Devils player to quit school early for pro ball.
In announcing his decision to give up his last two years of eligibility, Brand was joined at Cameron Indoor Stadium by his mother and a half-dozen teammates.
Coach Mike Krzyzewski, recovering from hip surgery at home, joined in by telephone and called
the decision by the player of the year a "no-brainer."
Brand was persuaded to leave school last weekend by Kryzewski and associate head coach Johnny Dawkins, a former Duke star and NBA player. They are certain Brand will be a top-10 pick in the June 30 NBA draft.
"The way college basketball has played me last year with the double teams and zones, Coach felt I would only improve in practice and wouldn't get a chance to develop in the games," Brand said.
Brand averaged 17.8 points and 9.8 rebounds a game in carrying the Blue Devils to a 37-2 record. But he fell short of his goal of leading the Blue Devils to the national title, with a 77-74 loss to Connecticut in the NCAA championship game last month.
"It's somewhat of a sad time to be leaving friends, teammates and coaches," Brand said. "But it's also a joyous time because I get to go into new adventures and new things and just live a lifetime dream of mine."
Brand was the first sophomore to win the John R. Wooden Award, presented by the Los Angeles Athletic Club to college basketball's top player. He also was honored earlier this season by The Associated Press, the Atlanta 'Tipoff Club and the United States Basketball Writers Association as national player of the year.
"I'm still not ready physically to go out there and play with those guys, but in a month or two from now I'll be more prepared," said Brand, who will begin a workout regimen with Dawkins immediately. "I don't think anyone coming
out of college is actually ready to play in the NBA."
While Brand will be gone next season, the Blue Devils have signed four prep All-Americans for next season.
"You are going to see players who are coming out of high school who probably wouldn't choose Duke because they didn't think Coach K let his players leave early now say, 'I can play to Duke because Elton Brand is leaving,' " junior Chris Carrawell said.
"Times are changing." Carrawell added. "It was one of those things where Elton Brand got the player of the year award. He swept every major award. What are you going to come back for, to sweep it again? The only thing he had to accomplish on the college level was to win a national championship."
All schools to pay in coach settlement
The Associated Press
OVERLAND PARK — The NCAA, trying to mollify both the major powers and the small-time schools, is going to ask everybody to share the pain in the $54.5 million settlement in the restricted earnings case.
Under a plan approved this week by the management council, payments into the fund would range from a low of about $77,000 for small schools, many of which had hardly any restricted earnings coaches, to around $200,000 for each of the big-time institutions.
The NCAA faced a potential revolt from its money-making Division I schools had they been asked to shoulder the entire amount, which will be distributed
among roughly 2,000 coaches in various sports whose salaries were unlawfully capped by the NCAA at $16,000 per year.
The smaller schools argued they
should have to pay little if anything. The major schools noted that the small schools voted for the rule and that they also receive money from the
NCAA
men's basketball tournament while rarely contributing much to it.
"I think what they've come up with shows Solomon-like wisdom," said Patty Viverito, associate commissioner of the Missouri Valley Conference. "It was a compromise in the truest sense of the word."
The plan, which now goes to the NCAA's board of directors for final approval, was agreed upon at the management council meetings after what one representative of small schools described as a "sulttle threat."
"There was no direct threat," said the representative, speaking on condition of anonymity. "But the suggestion was very apparent that if we didn't approve this plan now, the new plan to follow could cost us even more."
NCAA president Cedric Dempsey said there was no threat of any kind.
"It was framed right at the beginning that neither of the two extreme arguments were acceptable," Dempsey told The Associated Press. "I don't know if someone would have misperceived that."
The NCAA must submit the full cash payment of $54.5 million to lawyers for the restricted earnings coaches by May 7.
The coaches,however, probably won't see any of that money until Christmas.
"We've been advising the coaches we would like to see payments made within the next 6-8 months," said Lori Schultz, one of the lead attorneys.
The coaches will be compensated according to what sport they coached, for how long and where. Schultz said very few will receive any significant amount above what they would have earned.
Home run hitter helps end losing steak for Cubs
The Associated Press
CHICAGO — He's a strongly-built outfielder with the Chicago Cubs and he's one of baseball's leading home-run hitters. Sammy Sosa, of course.
Nope. It's Glenallen Hill—and he doesn't even play every day.
Sunday is not the Chicago Cubs. We've got 25 guys capable of
CUBS
doing a job and it's our responsibility to take some of the pressure off of Sammy," Hill said yesterday after hitting his third and
fourth homers to pace a 5-4 victory against the Cincinnati Reds.
Sosa appeared to snap out of a season-long hitting slump with two doubles and a walk, but Hill supplied the power as the Cubs ended a four-game losing streak behind quick-working Jon Lieber.
Hill would normally have been on the bench against right-hander Pete Harnisch but started because Henry Rodriguez was out for a third straight game with a strained side.
"It's no secret, I'm a role player. I play a couple of times a week and give the manager some flexibility," Hill said, shrugging off questions about whether he would like to be in the lineup every day.
"I'm a player, and I do what the manager asks. I'll leave it at that."
Lieber (2-0), using a rapid delivery, allowed three runs and eight hits during eight innings in the 2-hour, 6-minute game. He struck out nine and walked one.
his second save, surrendering Aaron Boone's first homer of the season with two outs.
Rod Beck pitched the ninth for
"I love to work fast. I don't mess around," said Lieber, who threw 89 pitches, 71 for strikes. "The quicker you get the other team off the field, the quicker the guys can get in and swing the bats."
Hill honored leading off the second against Harnisch (1-1). The
Cubs tacked on a second run as Jose Hernandez singled, raced to third when Boone missed Benito Santiago's
REDS
grounder to third for an error and scored on Gary Gaetti's sacrifice fly.
Harnisch, who pitched a six-hit shutout in his first start against St. Louis, gave up a double to Sosa in the third and Mark Grace's RBI single that made it 3-0.
"My stuff wasn't as good as last time," Harnisch said after giving up five runs and six hits in 51-3 innings.
The Reds got two runs back in the fourth as Barry Larkin singled and reached third when Sean Casey's hard grounder through the box hit Lieber in the foot and riccoleted into right for a double. Greg Vaughn and Dimitri Young then hit back-to-back sacrifice flies.
But Sosa lined his second double in the sixth and, one out later, Hill cleared the back fence in left field with a long drive that made it 5-2. Cincinnati got a run in the eighth on a double by Mark Sweeney, single by Mike Cameron and Barry Larkin's double play grounder.

Yugoslavia blames NATO for death of 64 refugees
The Associated Press
BELGRADE, Yugoslavia — As NATO warplanes hammered Serb targets in Kosovo yesterday, Yugoslavia said one of the strikes hit a convoy of ethnic Albanian refugees under Serb police escort, killing at least 64 and wounding 20.
NATO confirmed its aircraft carried out controlled attacks on military vehicles.
"The aircraft was fired on by anti-aircraft artillery and a manned portable surface-to-air missile. The pilots state they attacked only military vehicles," NATO said in a statement. "We cannot confirm press reports alleging that these attacks may have caused civilian casualties."
Pentagon spokesman Kenneth Bacon said NATO was still investigating but there was no indication its planes hit civilians.
Bacon said U.S. Army Gen, Wesley Clark, one of NATO's top commanders, told him in a telephone conversation
that he had received "verbal reports of the possibility" that after military vehi-
clines in the refugee convoy were hit, "military people got out and ... began to attack civilians in the middle of the convoy."
"We don't know what the full facts are." Bacon said.
Earlier,
Bacon said
UIN relief
Milosevic His governement said NATO killed 64 civilians
workers had reported to NATO that refugees entering Albania had claimed refugee convoy were being attacked by Yugoslav planes and helicopters.
Video taken under Serb control showed smashed bodies scattered along a roadway, damaged farm vehicles and bombed out farm buildings nearby. People in rough peasant cloth
ing, some with blood streaming down their faces, loaded bodies of the dead and wounded into trunks of cars or wheelbarrows to transport them.
The Serb-run Media Center in the Kosovo capital, Pristina, said two refugee convoyes were bombed, most of them made up of women, children and elderly ethnic Albanians being escorted by Serbian police.
Yugoslav Foreign Ministry spokesman Neboja Vujevic, who along with the media center reported a figure of 64 dead, denounced the strike as a "crime against humanity."
If the account were true, it would be the largest single loss of civilian life reported during the NATO bombing campaign.
NATO has said repeatedly that it held Yugoslav President Slobodan Milosevic responsible for the safety of ethnic Albanians driven from their homes in Kosovo but unable to leave the province. Estimates have put the number of displaced within Kosovo in the hundreds of thousands.
Tax time ticks out at midnight
IRS expects millions to send last-minute electronic returns
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — For millions of procrastinating Americans, it's time to face the music: Income tax returns must be postmarked or filed electronically by midnight tonight, and that's expected to mean 40 million last-minute state and federal returns.
Hundreds of larger post offices around the country will be open late to accommodate the crush, many of the biggest will stay open until midnight local time. And taxpayers who file electronically have until the last minute to zap their returns to the Internal Revenue Service.
A reminder: If you can't finish in time, file for an extension using Form 4868 and pay the IRS as much of your estimated bill as possible to avoid interest and penalties. You can also pay by MasterCard, American Express or Discover card by calling 1-888-2PAYTAX — for a 2.5 percent fee.
The IRS expects to receive 126 million individual income tax returns this year, with total income taxes projected at $828.6 billion. That's just under half the $1.7 trillion in overall federal tax collections used to pay for everything from cruise missiles to highway bridges to food stamps.
Working people pay more in U.S. taxes than more than 40,000 foreign-controlled corporations operating in this country. The General Accounting Office, the investigative arm of Congress, reported yesterday that tax loopholes allowed a majority of those companies to escape any taxes in 1995 — an amount estimated at $55 billion a year.
"It's part of citizenship here, but these corporations are getting by in many cases with a free ride," said Sen. Byron Dorgan, D-N.D., who released the study.
Still, mainly because of new child and education credits, Americans are enjoying much larger refunds at
$1.563 on average, or 15 percent above last year. And they've used computers to electronically file 21.1 million returns, almost 24 percent more than last year.
But the jury is still out on whether the much-publicized IRS reform law is making the agency treat taxpayer better. Senate Finance Committee Chairman William Roth, whose hearings last year helped spark the reforms, said he believes only about 20 percent of all IRS employees support the changes.
Studies about bone marrow transplant value may cause controversy
"Typically, a bureaucracy will say, 'We'll just wait it out,'" said Roth, R-Del. "We're talking about changing attitudes."
IRS Commissioner Charles Rossotti, however, told the Finance Committee on Wednesday about key changes. They include a new service-oriented mission statement, ways to rate employees that don't include enforcement quotas and a reorganization to create four separate operations aimed at individual taxpayers, small businesses, large corporations and tax-exempt entities.
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON - Cancer researchers and patients are expecting long-awaited studies on bone marrow transplants in treating advanced breast cancer to have inconclusive results. Researchers are bracing for new controversy about whether women should undergo the costly and difficult treatment.
Before the data are released today, researchers are working to ensure that insurance companies continue to pay for the treatment.
have absolutely definitive studies."
"The real dilemma we're in is—what happens now?" said Harmon Eyre, a physician, of the American Cancer Society. "We think it's important that women still have the procedure covered until we
The therapy can cost $50,000 to $150,000, and dying patients have sued insurance companies to force coverage. Nine states have mandated payments.
At issue is an aggressive treatment reserved for the most advanced breast cancer: Ultrahigh doses of chemotherapy followed by a bone marrow transplant to repair the immune system destruction caused by such high-dose therapy.
But there is no scientific proof that women undergoing the risky and painful procedure do better long-term than women given standard doses of chemotherapy and radiation.
Still, an estimated 6,000 Americans had the experimental treatment last year, less than 10 percent of whom entered clinical trials designed to determine if it's effective.
Today, the American Society for Clinical Oncology will release preliminary results from the first four major studies of bone marrow transplant therapy. People familiar with the research said that overall, the results are equivocal.
The scientist who led the largest
Why do women flock to an unproven treatment? Because the prognosis for advanced breast cancer is extremely grim. When cancer spreads to other organs, called metastatic disease, only 22 percent of patients survive five years. Some 43,000 women will die of breast cancer this year.
study and believed the treatment could work warned that the research was not complete yet.
"It's too early to draw conclusions," stressed William Peters, a physician, of the Barbara Ann Karmanos Cancer Institute in Detroit. He said at least three more years of study was required.
Peters said today's data would include some encouraging news.
"If it were going to show a clear benefit, those data would have been out months ago, and they would have stopped (the studies) early," said Fran Visco of the National Breast Cancer Coalition. Visco has discussed the research with investigators and advises women now considering a bone

Some doctors are eager to see if certain subgroups of patients responded better to bone marrow transplants, or if one type of high-dose chemotherapy worked better than another.

now will insurance companies interpret the findings? Many won't make coverage decisions until they see more in-depth data from the studies, scheduled to be released next month at a major cancer meeting and then published in medical journals, said Don Young of the American Association of Health Plans, a physician.
"The trials will leave open as many questions as they answer," cautioned Stephen Forman of City of Hope National Medical Center, a.
physician. He offers bone marrow transplants and said patients, who were expecting to die, had lived significantly longer with them.
Today's studies have flaws: They began 10 years ago, and both standard cancer treatments and the bone marrow transplants have improved since then. Also, too few cancer patients agreed to be in studies where they might be given a standard chemotherapy instead of the bone marrow transplant they desired.
"The tragedy here is that we would have had the answer years ago," Visco said. "Physicians did not insist that that happen. Patients were told, 'This is the only thing that could possibly save your life.' That's why we're in the situation we are today."

Coalition takes 39 Senate seats executive posts
By Nadia Mustafa
nmustafa@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Champagne was flying at the YOU coalition's victory party last night after the last of the Student Senate election results were announced in favor of Korb Maxwell and Dede Seibel, student body president-elect and vice president-elect.
Eighteen percent of the student body voted Wednesday and yesterday, electing 39 YOU, 23 Delta Force and 2 independent candidates into senatorial seats. Maxwell and Seibel received 2,341 votes, while 1,508 students voted for Seth Hoffman and Mary Liu, Delta Force student body presidential and vice presidential candidates.
At the Eagles Lodge, 1803 W. Sixth St., more than 100 YOU supporters chanted "YOU, YOU, YOU!" after hearing favorable results on KJK radio station throughout the evening.

Some people danced, played pool, shuffleboard or hung around the bar, but most hovered around a boom box on a table in the corner of the lounge — intently listening to coverage indicating YOU's constant lead.
YOU candidates stole back a majority of senatorial seats from the Delta Force coalition and swept seven categories—Nunemaker, non-traditional, education, fine arts, business, law and residential.
Fine arts seats traditionally had been dominated by members of Delta Force.
After being lifted on supporters' shoulders while popping the cork off of a champagne bottle following the announcement of his and Seibel's victory, Maxwell extended credit to YOU's 59 candidates.

"I'm so proud of everyone on the coalition," he said. "I've never worked with a group like this. It's all hard work and dedication. We won overwhelmingly, and I feel that it's a mandate from the campus for our issues."
Maxwell said that the first thing he would do when he took office was to lobby the administration and state legislature about YOU's campaign issues.
Also, he
Also, because the student body passed the recreation center referendum, he proudly would begin work with that next year.
Seibel said that she felt amazing. "We swept the elections," she said. "And we totally deserved it."
Candidates and their supporters, most of whom had cups in hand, had to wait until 9:45 p.m.
before results began to be released.
R. J. Woodring, Nunemaker senator-elect, said that since off-campus seats usually were Delta Force's stronghold, he was glad that YOU won at least one.
YOU didn't win any architecture and urban design or social welfare seats, and only won one of five off-campus senatorial seats.
Michael Henry, non-traditional
senator-elect, said that he was happy that so many non-traditional students voted. He said that next year he would try to get dental health services at Watkins Memorial Health Center and improve parking at Stouffer Place Apartments.
Tanisha Jones, Nunemaker senator-elect, said she would continue to work on current projects.
"I'm so excited," she said.
"This campaign has been so fun and I'm so glad and proud that I won."
Sonya Mohseni, engineering senator-elect, said that she would be the best engineering senator — except for Marlon Marshall, another engineering senator-elect. She said that her first priority would be altering the University of Kansas' course retake policy to ensure that engineering students remained competitive.
"I've never felt so awesome before in my life," Mohsen said.
With tears of joy streaming down her face, Sarah Schreck, College of Liberal Arts and Sciences senator-elect, also said that she would work on a course retake policy that would allow students to substitute their new grades for their old ones if they retook classes.
"I'm amazed," she said. "They told me I couldn't do it, and I did it. This is my third year on Senate. baby!"
Students voted 2,817-1,238 in favor of constructing a new $16 million campus recreation center.
They also passed a referendum 2,993,1-051 that will encourage the administration to implement a zero-tolerance policy for hate crimes and sexual assault at the University.
In addition, the student body approved 3,714-340 a proposal that will request the administration, City of Lawrence and Student Senate work toward creating a joint citywide bus system between the city and KU on Wheels.

Gospel choir to perform musical at Liberty Hall
The Inspirational Gospel Voices, a choir comprised of mostly KU students, will perform the gospel musical "Give It Up!" at 4:30 Sunday at Liberty Hall
Written by choir director Terrel McTyre, Kansas City, Mo., senior, the musical follows the lives of three college students who give up aspects of their lives to receive blessings from God.
McTyre said he spent six months writing the gospel musical, which will be one of the first of its kind performed in Kansas City.
"Every college student has their own daily struggles," said McTyre, who spent six months writing the musical "Everyone has their own personal things they have to deal with. When I wrote it I tried to capture these struggles."
The point of the musical was for students to walk away from the show feeling closer to God, McTyre said.
Inspirational Gospel Voices, a mixed choir of about 30 members, has performed for audiences in Denver, Kansas City and Lawrence.

GOP pushes through $1.74 trillion budget
contrast themselves with President Clinton on tea cuts and Social Security.
WASHINGTON — Republicans drove a $1.74 trillion budget for fiscal 2000 through Congress yesterday, a document crafted to let GOP lawmakers
its passage marked only the securi time Congress has completed the measure on time since the April 15 deadline was set in 1987, a win for Republicans eager to show they are efficiently doing the public's business. It also gave them the symbolic victory of approving a budget touting big tax cuts on the day many taxpayers were rushing to mail returns to the Internal Revenue Service.
The spending outline was approved by the Senate on a party-line 54-44 vote. Sens. Daniel Patrick Moynihan, D-N.Y., and Tim Hutchinson, R-Ak., did not vote.
The House passed the measure Wednesday 220-208, supported by just three Democrats.
The blueprint maps GOP plans for a new budgetary era in which annual federal surpluses seem to stretch to the horizon and beyond. During the next decade, Republicans would set aside all $1.8 trillion in expected Social Security surpluses to reduce the national debt.
DNA tests exonerate men held for murder
ADA, Okla. — Two inmates who served 12 years in prison on a murder conviction were freed yesterday after a judge dismissed charges against them. Recent DNA tests from the crime scene did not match either man.
Dennis Fritz and Ron Williamson have said all along that they had nothing to do with the killing of a woman in 1982.
Fritz had been serving a life sentence and Williamson was sentenced to death, though a federal appeals court ruled in 1997 that he should get a new trial because of inadequate defense at his first trial.
District Judge Tom Landrith ordered a new trial for Fritz but then immediately dismissed the murder charges against both men in the slaying of Debra Carter.
"We can never replace the 12 years the defendants have been incarcerated, nor can we forget Debra Carter—all we can do is go forward," Landrith said.
As Landrith gave the order releasing both men, Fritz stood quietly while Williamson replied "Thank you, judge."
The charges were dismissed after Mary Long, a criminologist with the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation, testified that hair and semen samples submitted for DNA testing did not match either man.

ATLANTA — A Delta Air Lines plot shot short an Atlanta-to-Tokyo flight this month, saying the plane's redesigned sleeping quarters for his crew were so
Redesigned Delta plane not restful, pilot says
The incident, involving 30-year veteran Capt. Roscoe McMillan, was the culmination of a months-long fight between pilots and Delta, which had shrank the sleeping space on some long-haul planes to make more room for higher-paying business class passengers.
The airline has questioned McMillan and his three-member crew, and the pilots' union fears he could be fired if the airline decides he acted out of rebellion rather than safety concern.
Pilots让 the new type of bunk "the coffin." Their union, the Air Line Pilots Association has filed a grievance with the company.
"It's small. It lacks adequate privacy considerations and it's in a noisy area where the activities of the cabin and the cockpit make it difficult if not impossible to get sleep," said Capt. Andy Deane, spokesman for the Air Line Pilots Association. "Simply being horizontal is not enough."
Delta says the bunks are safe and approved by the Federal Aviation Administration.
Pig cell breakthrough may help heart patients
WASHINGTON — An experiment with pig cells and a machine that mimics the pulse of the heart shows that new, living arteries can be grown in the laboratory to replace diseased vessels, an important step in the developing field of making new body parts.
Laura A. Niklason of Duke University leader of the research team that made the pig arteries, said that the vessels are indistinguishable from the native structure.
Niklason, first author of a study that appears today in the journal Science, said that although the experiment used pigs, it demonstrated that it is fundamentally possible to grow new arteries to replace those that have become clogged or blocked by heart disease. She said engineered, living arteries may someday be used in human heart bypasses instead of the leg veins that doctors now use.
"This is proof that one can take a vessel from an adult animal, make an artery and then put it back in and have it work." Niklason said.
A number of labs are now experimenting with tissue culture techniques designed to grow new body parts. Some have grown ligaments, tendons, bone and even a new ear. But Niklason said her experiment was different because the incubation machine rhythmically pumped nutrients through the developing cells, imitating the pressures from a beating heart.

Delta Force loses Senate majority
By Heather Woodward
hwoodward@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Delta Force coalition members tasted to the Senate winners and a cheered for a presidential campaign they had worked hard on, lightening the mood in a house of disappointment shortly after the Student Senate results were announced.
Last night, YOU coalition won the presidential and vice presidential race with 2,341 votes, defeating Delta Force, which came away with 1,505 votes.
Seth Hoffman, Delta Force presidential candidate, said he was proud of the campaign that he and vice president candidate Mary Liu had run.
"Mary and I made a decision right from the beginning to run a clean campaign," Hoffman said. "Something that's more important than winning is running a campaign by the rules. And hopefully that will be the legacy for the two of us."
Hoffman said he was disappointed that Delta Force lost the majority it had previously held in the Senate.
P
"I think our candidates would have done a better job," Hoffman said. "I'm concerned that this election will create a stagnancy in the Senate next year. And that could have been solved tonight."
J. D. Jenkins, Delta Force candidate for a Nunemaker seat, lowers his head after learning he lost his bid. The Delta Force coalition won 23 seats but fell short of YOU, which won 39. Photo by Matt J. Daugherty/KANSAN
Hoffman said that he would continue to work on the issues he addressed in the campaign.
"I imagine that a lot of these issues that I've worked so hard for I won't be able to just abandon," Hoffman said.
Liu said that she was surprised that she and Hoffman lost but thought the 18 percent voter turnout may have influenced the results. Last year, turnout was 19 percent.
"I thought we fought a good race, and there's always next year," Liu said. "I think the weather may have been a factor, but I'm really clueless about why we didn't win."
The referendum on the recreation center divisively split the presidential race, with Delta Force strongly against increasing the student activity fee. Students voted in favor of the recreation center. 2.817 to 1.238.
Eric Rush, College of Liberal Arts and Sciences senator-elect, said he thought the recreation center referendum was a big part of why Delta Force did not win the presidential race.
"We lost because we took a stand against the recreation center, and students didn't like that," he said. "Even though it's not well planned out, the students said that was good enough for them."
YOU coilment swept all 14 Nunemaker Senate seats, which did not surprise Katie Harpstite, who ran for a Nunemaker seat for Delta Force. She said that she would continue to stay involved on Senate committees.
"I still plan to stay active in Senate," Harpstrite said. "It will depend on what else I get involved in.
Delta Force won seven of the 12 CLAS seats. Nicole Skalla, CLAS senator-elect, said she was happy about the coalition's
goodshowing in CLAS.
"I think people know we keep our promises," Skalla said. "I want to focus on public transportation and campus safety. I really want to get the administration behind all of those issues."

Safety board mulls Saferide expansion
By Katie Burford kbfurdor@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
When it comes to student safety, Saferide has been Student Senate's most resounding success, said John Mullens, assistant director of security for the KU Public Safety Office.
Mullens is a member of the Student Senate's Campus Safety Advisory Board and has acted as an adviser on projects under consideration by the board. Among these are improving campus lighting, expanding Saferide and creating a Safewalk program.
Safewalk would provide escorts for students walking from one campus location to another.
Mullens said that escort programs had been attempted in the past, but with limited success. Saferide, he
said, already had proven its feasibility.
"All the escort programs I've ever been involved with over the years never handled half of what Saferide does in a month," he said.
He said that, on average, Saferide
He said that, on a provided about 1,000 rides a month.
Nonetheless,
Safewalk, which
students supported
3 to 1 in a referendum
1998, will stay on the board's plate this term.
Scott Kaiser, student body vice president and advisory board member, said that the Safewalk initiative stalled because the committee chairperson working on the proposal had unexpectedly left the University.
"Safewalk has been left dead in the water," he said.
"We'll be working with the Public Safety Office to try to avoid the pitfalls of past," he said.
Another focus will be expanding Saferide, he said. Saferide, which officially started in 1992, is operated by the Lawrence Bus Co. and provides safe transportation for students between 11 p.m. and 3 a.m.
"We're trying to find alternative sources of funding to increase hours of operation," he said. "We don't want to increase student fees."
The board has been in contact with anheuser-Busch about contributing money, but no specific amount as
been decided on yet, he said.
Another alternative was applying for funds through the city's alcohol task force.
Safereid costs about $110,000 annually and comes out of students' $16 transportation fees. The fee also pays for KU on Wheels.
In the past, Senate addressed safety issues by forming ad hoc committees. Mullens said that this approach often meant covering ground that had been studied in the past.
Kevin Yoder, student body president, said that the advisory board, which was formed in January, was intended to curb this phenomena. He said that the creation of the advisory board was evidence that Senate had done a good job on student safety.
Mullens agreed that it would help.

Desmond Tutu's speech warrants attention of University populace
When a Nobel Peace Prize winner speaks, students should listen. Sunday, Archbishop Desmond Tutu will speak at Allen Fieldhouse, and every seat should be occupied.
Tutu was the 1984 Nobel Peace Prize winner for his contribution to racial justice in South Africa. However, he has not won only a Nobel Prize but also the Order for Meritorious Service Award presented by President Nelson Mandela, the Archbishop of Canterbury's Award for outstanding service to the Anglican Communion, the Prix d'Athene (Onassis Foundation), the Family of Man Gold Medal Award and the Martin Luther King Jr. Non-Violent Peace Prize.
Tutu has honorary degrees from

universities such as Harvard, Oxford and Columbia. Tutu's main contribution to peace was his work in providing assistance to victims of apartheid in South Africa.
Even as General Secretary of the South African Council of Churches, Tutu was not afraid to speak against the injustice of the apartheid system. He believed in justice, and he worked until justice was restored to South Africa.

rants the purchase of a $5 ticket, the student admission price to the event. Jeff LaCroix, SUA vice president for university relations, said that SUA brought Tutu to the University in an effort to raise the bar of the student lecture series. LaCroix said he thought that Tutu fearlessly walked on uncharted waters and that students would appreciate hearing Tutu's story.
LaCroix also said Tutu would probably talk about tolerance, peace and his experience of bringing an end to apartheid in South Africa.
Students should attend Tutu's speech Sunday. Everyone could use a lesson in peace and tolerance, and there is no better source than a winner of the Nobel Peace Prize.

Chinese prime minister fails in grasp of history
At least week's comedy routine — posing as a press conference — presented by President Clinton and Chinese Prime Minister Zhu, a striking nonsenseur was made by our foreign guest.
Attempting to preempt any criticism that might be assailed at his country over future military moves against Taiwan, Mr. Zhu compared any form of Chinese invasion of Taiwan to the use of force employed by President Lincoln to quell the rebellion of the South in 1861.
Of course, President Jiang Zemin is no President Lincoln, but this is not the salient issue.
Upon closer scrutiny, Mr. Zhu's analogy breaks down entirely. Chiang Kai-Shek and the Nationalists fled the
mainland in 1949-50 when a new Communist government under Mao Zedong won on the battlefield. It is important to note that Mao's government in Beijing was a revolutionary government, intending to dismantle the system of governance that had been in place under Nationalistic rule.
When President Lincoln was elected in 1860, he did not bring to Washington a fundamental change in the democratic constitutionalist form of American government.
Under the specious reasoning of Mr. Zhu, the correct analogy would be the following. After the American colonies successfully fought and defeated Great Britain, many loyalists living in the nascent United States, rather than live under the new American Constitution, fled the States to Canada. Therefore, Mr. Zhu should agree, it would be entirely justified for
the United States, some 50 years later — about 1836 — to attack the burgeoning cities in southern Canada where so many loyalists had fled and had rebuilt their lives after the Revolution. The United States should have nay, still should — attack Canadian cities, decrying the arrogance of a people who dared to determine their own destinies after being soundly defeated in battle.
Mr. Zhu's analogy is quite weak, to say the least. But it fits nicely into a 15-second sound bite and passes without refute when such flimsy logic goes unquestioned. Being surprised by Zhu's remarks, the best Clinton could muster was that the facts surrounding the two scenarios are quite different. I should say so.

it often is said that in order to have a better perspective on your own culture, you first have to get out of it. Gandhi did that when, as a lawyer, he defended Indians against racial discrimination in South Africa between 1893 and 1914. Back in India, he took up the cause of the untouchables. Today, India is working hard to uplift the untouchables, but resistance against this effort is fierce. Like the United States, India has its own battle against quotas and affirmative action. For his pioneering work for social justice and positive peace, Gandhi didn't win a Nobel Prize. But his life and work inspired many people who did win the Nobel Prize for Peace.
ables. This is an old tradition, of course, and much progress has been made toward social justice. But traditions die hard, and the karma of the untouchables, it is believed, is to do the dirty work of Indian society. This always has seemed natural to many people. It seemed natural even to Mahatma Gandhi until, as a lawyer, he was awakened to the horror of prejudice and discrimination.
rne other place where Gandhi's influence was felt was South Africa, where, paradoxically, Nelson Mandela lead the armed struggle against the apartheid regime and, under his leadership, the African National Congress
One such person was Martin Luther King, Jr., who tackled the problems of African-Americans in the United States. King credited Gandhi as inspiration for his work and methods, and, for his efforts, won the 1964 Nobel Peace Prize. If the members of the lowest class in India were, and are, untouchable, the lowest-class members in the United States were untouchable and invisible. We did not use the Afrikaans term apartheid here, but the English terms "whites only," "colored," "separate but equal" were signposts on our discrimination journey. These words were written in our minds, hearts, laws, public bathrooms and public institutions. Even though they are no longer in the letter of the law, they still are in the spirit of the many laws that are sprouting throughout the country.
In 1955, Mandela named Desmond Tutu as chairman. But Tutu was not a newcomer to the scene of reconciliation, social justice and constructive human relations, especially where race relations were concerned. Following in the steps of Gandhi and King, Tutu had fought the apartheid regime with the only weapon proven to destroy the monster of discrimination: the power of love. For this effort, he was awarded the 1984 Nobel Peace Prize.
Even though a lot of progress has been made in India, South Africa, and the United States in particular, and in the rest of the world in general, much work still needs to be done. We are far from achieving social justice and constructive race relations and true world peace, as the events in the former Yugoslavia testify. These days we yearn for peace by military force. I am not sure this is the right approach to true peace. Can we bomb people into loving their fellow human beings?
committed its own share of atrocities. Called a terrorist, Mandela was arrested and imprisoned. What matters, though, is not how dark one's heart is at a given point in time, but whether one has the guts to change that darkness into light. Nelson Mandela did have the guts. After 28 years of imprisonment by a regime that oppressed the people of his group, the very first thing he did after his release from prison was to call, not for revenge, as we human beings usually do when someone has hurt us, but for systematic forgiveness and reconciliation. The second thing he did to accomplish this goal that many called utopian was, once he became president, to establish the Truth and Reconciliation Commission.
There is an approach that has been tried and whose results we can verify: the approach of goodwill toward all, non-violent conflict resolution and reconciliation. This approach was tried by Gandhi and King, and the results are known to all of us. Because this method of love is extremely powerful and thus threatening to those who advocate bigotry and hate, Gandhi and King were assassinated.
Desmond Tutu, fortunately, still is with us and is coming to the University of Kansas. He will speak at 7 p.m. Sunday at Allen Fieldhouse. His lecture is titled "Bridging the Chasm Between Black and White." This is the opportunity of a lifetime for KU faculty, staff, students and the residents of Lawrence and the surrounding areas.
Only 259 days left, and the 20th century will be over. As we prepare to enter the 21st century, let's soak in Desmond Tutu's message and leave behind us the follies of the old millennium. Looking to the future, let's bridge the chasm that still exists between us and fellow human beings of different political affiliation, religion, class, sexual orientation, gender, color, ethnicity and, thus reconciled, move together in harmony into the new millennium.

Common sense becomes scarce during enrollment
Enrollment for the fall semester is upon us. Students are sorting through timetables, looking up lists of class require- ment and figuring out how they'll afford
another five months at the University of Kansas. As a service to these students, I thought I'd answer some of the numerous questions about enrollment and related topics that swirl around this time of year.
What classes should I take next year?
PETER H. KENNEDY
Clay McCuistion opinion@kansan.com
Easy ones.
Easy ones? How can I ever get a job if I only take easy classes in college?
Taking classes is a very personal decision. While student A may enjoy quantum physics, student B may enjoy interpretive dance and student C may enjoy a support group for kids who don't have names, just identifying letters. If you think "hard work" in a "good-paying job" is what you "want," then take courses that challenge your "mind."
Of course, Bill Gates probably is much smarter than you.
Or you could move to Thailand and work in a factory putting "quote marks" around "words." Should I apply for financial aid?
Should I apply for financial aid?
Certainly. Although financial aid forms are put together by the same brilliant minds that design tax forms, it's important to apply. Thousands of dollars in aid go unclaimed by students each year, and if you believe that, I have some great investment plans I'd like to tell you about.
Will I actually get any financial aid?
It depends on what the financial aid overlords decide your "financial need" is. This calculation is carried out in a very logical and scientific way that involves sacrificing small waterfowl to evil spirits.
If the experts determine — after appeasing the spirits — that you have "financial need" you may qualify for a grant, scholarship or loan. Grants and scholarships are forms of free money, while a student loan will haunt you for the rest of your accursed days.
Tattooing student IDs on foreheads would make matters easier and more convenient, too. But does mere convenience justify the action?
Should I be advised?
Is the University of Kansas "other colleges?" Is blindly following every faddish trend the way for an institution of higher learning to conduct itself? If every other university in this country required ID numbers to be tattooed in red on students' heads, would it be right for our University to do the same? Obviously not.
Sure! Counsel from wise elders who know class requirements intimately is to be treasured. Keep their advice in mind — and totally ignore it when you take "Meanings of Modern Minimalist Sculpture" because the GTA is cute.
How much knowledge do you take?
Again, this is a question with an answer depending on the individual. I know of people who enjoy and thrive while taking 18 credit hours. Personally, I would pry out out my eyes with a rusty fork if forced to endure that much class.
Why can't we enroll online? I've heard about other colleges doing it.
But isn't online enrollment a lot easier and more convenient?
■ The University's just behind, isn
ar. yes, Next question please.
**What if I don't like my classes when I get in them?**
Don't go.
But isn't there an add, drop procedure you can go through if you want to stop taking a class?
Yes, add/drop exists. But its steps are only understood by a tiny, extremely old hermit who lives in a cave somewhere in the Alps. He sleeps most of the time these days, but he'll sometimes talk to students on pilgrimage if they ask really nicely and bring him a colorful ceramic elephant.
Any final words of advice for students preparing to enroll?
Remember that there is more to college than attending house parties, drinking beer and escaping legal prosecution. Sometimes, it may help you to attend some classes. If you actually have ambitions in life, it may pay to endure some challenging course work as well.
But hey, do whatever you feel like, man.

Computer access in Senate office may be removed
By Nadia Mustafa
mnaustafa@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Student senators may lose their privileges to access computers in the Senate office if illegal computer activity continues.
Academic Computing Services is investigating an allegedly forged email sent Tuesday from a computer in the Senate office.
The e-mail, which was delivered at 7:37 p.m. to students Against the Recreation Center, appeared to be sent by Jason Fizell, 1998 KU graduate and former Delta Force president. However, Fizell, research director for the Associated Students of Madison at the University of Wisconsin at Madison, was in Madison, Wis., during that time.
Craig Paul, ACS systems software programmer, said he believed that the e-mail was forged. Although he had identified three senators who had used the computer before and after the e-mail was sent, he said that there was no evidence they were guilty.
"I've recommended that if the problem continues, all computer access in the Senate office should be removed because there's no reason for this kind of abuse," Paul said.
Also, he said, the University of Kansas was considering mandating that individuals who log on to the University network provide a name and password so that it would be able to trace incidents to specific individuals.
Paul said that there had been cases of forged e-mail for years at the University because Internet mail was easy to forge. But, he said that ACS would pursue an investigation if they received a request from the involved
parties. He said that it still might be possible to find the culprit, but was not sure how long it would take.
Sending forged e-mail is a violation of the KU code of student rights and responsibilities.
The e-mail, which was sent using Fitzell's e-mail address and what appeared to be the University of Wisconsin at Madison's server, addressed Delta Force members about the recreation task force's proposal for a new campus recreation center.
Fizzel could not be reached for comment.
Eric Rush, Delta Force member, said that Delta Force did not yet want to make any accusations.
"We don't want to make this inflammatory," he said. "What's done is done."
Seth Hoffman, Delta Force president, said that he would consult administrators about whether to pursue an investigation.
"Something definitely needs to be looked into," he said. "I don't think anybody should be able to get away with this stuff."
The forged e-mail was the third reported incident this semester of illegal computer activity related to Senate.
Last month, an unknown individual vandalized the Senate Web site. In January, someone hacked Student Body Vice President Scott Kaiser's e-mail account from a computer in the Senate office.
In addition, during campaign time last spring, unknown individuals used Senate computers to forward other people's saved and sent messages to themselves and others.

Preparations to begin for new Regents

"This is bigger than some anticipated," said Andy Tompkins, state commissioner of education, in an understatement that drew laughs from the Regents and audience at a monthly meeting yesterday at Kansas State University.
Tompkins is a member of a transition team formed by Regents Chairman William Docking to steer the board through changes mandated by Senate Bill 345, which has passed both houses of the Legislature and is awaiting a conference committee's attention at the end of the month.
"In order to prepare for likely passage, we thought it appropriate to move ahead in the planning process," Docking said.
The bill calls for a new nine-member board to be established July 1 that would be made up of three commissions — one to govern Regents institutions, one to oversee community colleges and technical schools and one to handle coordination issues and resolve conflicts.
Tompkins said eight full-time staff positions at the Board of Education would need to be transferred to the Board of Regents, but some of those salaries are partially paid for by federal grants unavailable to the Regents. Those funds would need to be made up somehow, possibly through state general funds, he said.
The Board of Regents now governs only the six Regents institutions, and the Board of Education oversees the 30 community colleges and vocational schools.
Not only will the Regents have to determine how to pay the new staff members, they will have to figure out where to put them. Director Tom Bryant said he was considering leasing more office space in the Security Benefit Life Building in Topeka across from Regents offices.
"As you can see, this is a big undertaking."Docking said.
Other concerns addressed by the board included lack of financing for the transition period, the possibility of conflict between the commissions and the amount of time required for the new Regents to handle increased responsibilities.
"If this position were to be limited to those who are independently wealthy and have that kind of time, that would be disastrous," said Regent Sylvia Robinson.
Ed Hammond, president of Fort Hays State University and head of the Regents Council of Presidents, said the conference committee should empower the new board to make adjustments as problems arise.
"We don't have the answers, but we agree that fine-tuning is needed," he said. "But we believe as a group that to get all post-secondary education governance into one structure is in the benefit of higher education."
Another legislative decision was easier for the Regents to deal with — an increase of nearly 5 percent for faculty salaries.
In a conference committee's state budget compromise, legislators added $900,000 to a $2.5 million salary-enhancement pool. That $3.4 million for retaining top faculty, plus a 3.5 percent increase for all faculty, brings the total increase to 4.9 percent, said Marvin Burris, director of governmental affairs.
The board approved a motion allocating the salary-enhancement funds, of which KU would receive $889,500. All instructional, research and public service faculty who hold the rank of professor, associate professor, assistant professor or instructor would be eligible for salary increases from the enhancement pool.
But KU Chancellor Robert Hemenway warned that the salary increase wasn't final until it passed through a three-day legislative session at the end of the month.
"That can be dramatically changed during the wrap-up session, so we need to be vigilant," Hemenway said. "There's no guarantee until then."

Kansas students need more aid, administrators say
By Krisi Reimer

Kanson staff writer
The lack of financial aid for Kansas residents and the increasing costs of education have left some students with massive debts and led others to decide not to attend college at all, said Christine Crenshaw, director of student financial aid for the Board of Regents.
"When I was in college—and I'm 51—if you worked 20 hours a week at minimum wage, you could go to k-State and live on campus," Crenshaw told the board at its monthly meeting yesterday. "Today, you would have to work 40 hours a week or earn $$ an hour."
Crenshaw distributed information showing that of the $330 million in financial aid given to needy students at all universities in Kansas, about $206 million was in the form of loans. The average loan for a student in Kansas is about $3,000 per year.
Regent Murray Lull said most students weren't prepared to handle that kind of debt along with the credit-card bills many of them rack up.
"They haven't even begun to think about the consequences." Lull said.
Ed Hammond, president of Fort Hays State University, said graduating so many students with loans was not in the best interests of the state.
"Such a debt level will make them unable to participate in the economy," he said. "This is something that has not been understood by policy-makers."
KU Cancellor Robert Hemenway said the figures Crenshaw released also had implications for graduation rates. Students who choose to work their way through college usually don't graduate on time, he said.
"There is a direct correlation," he said. "You can graduate in four years, but not when you're working those kinds of hours."
Sorority member to file YOU campaign complaint
Hammond said universities and the board needed to educate students about the impact of heavy debt and press state officials to take action.
"The Legislature has ducked this issue by not putting more money to state scholarships," he said.

A sorority resident plans to file a complaint against members of the YOU coalition, who were knocking on residents' doors yesterday at Sigma Kappa sorority house, 1325 W. Campus Road.
Liz Wristen, Leawood junior, said that she would complain to the elections commission today about being harassed at her room in Sigma Kappa by YOU supporters yesterday afternoon.
She said that Rebecca Houghland, Overland Park freshman and Sigma Kappa resident, and Kimberly Fuchs, Merriam sophomore, opened her door and entered her room, even though she and her roommates did not answer their knocks.
Campaigning in sororities without the permission of the house mother is a violation of the elections code and may violate state trespassing laws.
Wristen said that Hougland and Fuchs, who were dressed in YOU attire, went door to door at the sorority encouraging residents to vote and offered them rides to campus.
Melissa Yeager, Overland Park junior, is one of Wristen's roommates. She said that she was annoyed by Hougland and Fuchs because she wanted to relax and watch television at home during her lunch hour.
"I get hit eight or nine times when I'm walking on campus, but I got hit by two more when at home when I just wanted to chill out," Yeager said. "When they're knocking on your door and
harassing you about not voting, it
gives really annoying."
Ruth Rader, Sigma Kappa house mother, said that no one had asked her permission to enter the house.
"I didn't know they were here, and I'm upset that they were," she said.
Shelley Moore, Sigma Kappa president, said that she also was unaware that Hougland and Fuchs had been knocking on doors.
Korb Maxwell and Dede Seibel, student body president and vice president-elects, both said that they had informed their candidates and supporters about elections code regulations and that they were unaware of Hougland's and Fuch's actions.
"We tried to fire people up, but we never told people to go door to door." Maxwell said.
Koren Hawk, Topeka junior and
Sigma Kappa resident, also said that she didn't appreciate Fuchs, who was alone at the time, knocking on her door.
"It caught me off-guard," she said. "I didn't know the person. Guests have to be walked around, but she was alone."
Houghtland said that she and Fuchs did not identify themselves verbally as supporting YOU and that they were only asking residents if they had voted and offering them rides.
Fuchs could not be reached for comment.
Jennifer Watkins, elections commissioner, said that their actions could be in violation. However, she said she could not comment further because she was busy with elections.

Computer access in Senate office may be removed
By Nadia Mustafa
nmustafa@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Student senators may lose their privileges to access computers in the Senate office if illegal computer activity continues.
Academic Computing Services is investigating an allegedly forged e-mail sent Tuesday from a computer in the Senate office.
The e-mail, which was delivered at 7:37 p.m. to Students Against the Recreation Center, appeared to be sent by Jason Fizell, 1998 KU graduate and former Delta Force president. However, Fizell, research director for the Associated Students of Madison at the University of Wisconsin at Madison, was in Madison, Wis., during that time.
Craig Paul, ACS systems software programmer, said he believed that the e-mail was forged. Although he had identified three scientists who had used the computer before and after the e-mail was sent, he said that there was no evidence they were guilty.
"I've recommended that if the problem continues, all computer access in the Senate office should be removed because there's no reason for this kind of abuse." Paul said.
Also, he said, the University of Kansas was considering mandating that individuals who log on to the University network provide a name and password so that it would be able to trace incidents to specific individuals.
Paul said that there had been cases of forged e-mail for years at the University because Internet mail was easy to forge. But, he said that ACS would pursue an investigation if they received a request from the involved
parties. He said that it still might be possible to find the culprit, but was not sure how long it would take.
Sending forged e-mail is a violation of the KU code of student rights and responsibilities.
The e-mail, which was sent using Fizell's e-mail address and what appeared to be the University of Wisconsin at Madison's server, addressed Delta Force members about the recreation task force's proposal for a new campus recreation center.
Fizell could not be reached for comment.
Eric Rush, Delta Force member, said that Delta Force did not yet want to make any accusations.
"We don't want to make this inflammatory," he said. "What's done is done."
Seth Hoffman, Delta Force president, said that he would consult administrators about whether to pursue an investigation.
"Something definitely needs to be looked into," he said. "I don't think anybody should be able to get away with this stuff."
The forged e-mail was the third reported incident this semester of illegal computer activity related to Senate.
Last month, an unknown individual vandalized the Senate Web site. In January, someone hacked Student Body Vice President Scott Kaiser's email account from a computer in the Senate office.
In addition, during campaign time last spring, unknown individuals used Senate computers to forward other people's saved and sent messages to themselves and others.

KU actors put on show of gay activism

It was the anti gay protester's nightmare.
And the gay activist's dream.
And the eageray students had the chance to become Sodomobile passengers last October during the filming of an episode of *The Awful Truth*, a new television show by political activist and filmmaker Michael Moore. The episode will air at 7 p.m. Sunday on the Bravo network.
The Bravo network is only accessible via digital satellite in Lawrence, but will be available on regular cable in other areas including Kansas City.

In the episode, the students, along with other area homosexuals, traveled around Topeka in the Sodomobile, making stops at the Fred Phelps compound, the Capitol steps and other downtown spots.
steps and other footwork sports.
As Michael Moore conducted candid interviews with Phelps, the passengers hopped out and did what they could to disturb Phelps and his followers.
"We came out dancing and began to flirt with Fred and even handed him some
brochures about anal sex," said Seth Golay, Pittsburg freshman. "He was taken off guard and began preaching stuff out of the Bible."
For Golay, holding back his anger was difficult at times. Especially when the Pheeps clips declared that Matthew Shepard, a gay college student who was beaten and left to die last year in Wyoming, deserved to burn in hell.
"That was the only time I physically wanted to lash out." Golay said.

And in the end, Golay thought Moore's point was made.
"Our goal wasn't to slander Phelps or really hurt him but to bring out the ignorance of his protests," he said. "Michael brought out how sad it really is."
In the episode, Moore hands Phelps a large-print Bible, implying that he may need to read a little closer. Moore also raises the question of why sodomy, though widely practiced, is still illegal in so many states.

Of the three proposed routes, the one that comes closest to Haskell would be mitigated by earth berms or a 12-foot cement walls.

Although the agencies said the earth berms wouldn't cause any serious drainage problems, Crawford said he didn't think they had conducted the study properly.

Journalism class views 'BAD boys!'
By Heather Woodward
hwoodward@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
WEDNESDAY:
Larry Baden, assistant professor of journalism,
said he had not planned to discuss the e-mail in his
Communication in Society class but learned about it because of a Tuesday article in The University Daily Kansas.
The "BAD, BAD, BAD boys!" e-mail, which blacklisted some KU men, made its way onto an overhead display in a 12:30 p.m. journalism class Wednesday.
The e-mail arrived at University of Kansas from the University of Iowa at least a week ago. Listing KU men's names and fraternities along with derogatory sexual commentary, the e-mail has been passed from hand to hand and is growing in length.
About 31 men were listed on the longest e-mail that Baden received from his students.
"About 15 people in my class had the e-mail, so I had some of them forward it to me," said Baden, who has 93 students in his class. "We've been talking about free speech and what's appropriate and inappropriate, what's legal and what's illegal. We've looked at a bunch of abortion and hate crime Web sites, but this just hit a little closer to home."
Jackie Viel, Stoux Falls, S.D., freshman and a student in Baden's class, said that she had added two men's names to the list and forwarded the e-mail to three of her friends.
Viel let Baden copy her e-mail into a word document to show the class. He lapsed on the screen for short.
show the class.
"It flashed on the screen for about three seconds with three of the names," Viel said. "But then he decided it wasn't a good idea and took off the names."
Baden then projected the e-mail from a computer onto a screen at the front of the classroom, allowing students to read the first two or three comments.
"For our purposes, we didn't need to look at the names." Baden said.
Edited by Keith Burner
Mark Johnson, a Kansas City, Mo., attorney who specializes in First Amendment law, said that the student who sent the e-mail to Baden could be liable.
"It seems to me that the fact that he asked the student to send to it him wouldn't relieve the liability of the student," Johnson said. "But the additional damage to the men's reputation would be so small considering that this thing has been circulated so much. It really probably would be insignificant."
Johnson also said one element of defamation is communicating inaccurate information from one person to another.
Buden said that he thought he had covered his tracks by deleting the men's names.
person who informs
"We advise our clients to be very careful about e-mail," Johnson said. "People think that e-mail is somehow different from sending a letter."
"I'm really not overly concerned from a legal standpoint," Baden said. "I would hope that academic freedom would prevail."
Mary Wallace, assistant to the dean of the William Allen White School of Journalism, would not comment about the incident.

Students to walk in AIDS fund raiser
By T.J. Johnson
fjohnson@kanson.com
Kansas staff writer
Students who feel like giving something back to the Lawrence community will have their chance tomorrow morning during the Douglas County AIDS Project's ninth-annual Walk For Health.
The walk is one of the largest fundraising events of the year, and represents an important part of the project's income, said Sidney Hardgrave, the project's executive director.
"We do four fund raises a year, and this is our second largest," Hardgrave said. "Last year our walk for health brought in a little over $7,000."
She said about 300 walkers participated in the walk last year and about the same number were expected this year. The organization has set a goal of about $7,500 to be raised this year.
"We've been really excited in the last couple of years to see the growth in interest. Last year was the first time we had over three hundred walkers and we hope to have the same number this year," Hardgrave said.
The walk will begin at 10 a.m. tomorrow at the South Park gazebo on Massachusetts Street. Participants will walk north from there to Sixth Street, then west to Arkansas Street, then south to Ninth Street, where walkers will turn east back to Massachusetts Street. The last leg of the walk will take participants south back to the gazebo.
Those who have not yet registered
for the walk are still welcome to come with pledges or donations and will be able to sign up for the walk there. Hardgrave said.
The KU Panhellenic Association and Interfraternity Council both have been helping to organize and promote this year's Walk for Health by encouraging greek and non-greek groups to sign up.
Sarah Heimovics, Panhellenic vice president for philanthropy and community service, said both groups had been helping with the walk for the past two years as part of their spring philanthropy project.
Hardgrav said that she appreciated the efforts.
"They have been working with all of the campus groups to develop some campus teams and have really marketed that an hung fliers and
made phone calls, which was wonderful. It was very helpful to us," Hardgravesaid.
The money raised by the walk is used to support the organization's services in Lawrence, including assistance for people living with AIDS and education about prevention for people in the community.
Hardgrave said the walk was a fun event for the community to show its support.
"It really warm our hearts to see the support we get from the community," she said. "We know it's there, but when you've got a big group gathered it's such an obvious reminder of how many people do care and it's motivating for us to see that. It's usually just a lot of fun and a nice community gathering."

Three world famous jazz musicians will play at the 22nd-annual KU Jazz Festival presented by the KU Department of Music and Dance this weekend.
Performances began at 7:30 last night at the Lied Center and will continue until tomorrow at the same time and place.
This year's lineup is quite impressive.
Eddie Daniels, acclaimed clarinet and saxophone player kicked off the festival last night. Since 1966, when he made a name for himself playing with the Thad Jones-Mel Lewis Orchestra in New York's Village Vanguard, Daniels has been one of the premiere clarinet players in both the jazz and classical music world.
"As far as clarinet goes, it's like him and Benny Goodman," said Dave Gnojek, Lawrence senior.
Gnojek plays alto and soprano saxophone, clarinet and flute and is excited to perform in the KU Jazz Ensemble with saxophonist David Liebman tomorrow.
Tonight will feature the Dave Douglas Quartet. Douglas has amassed a huge number of awards from jazz magazines such as Dounbelt and Jazz Times and has proved to
Liebman has played everything from chamber jazz to avant-garde jazz to fusion and has recorded 75 CDs and albums. Some of his fame can be credited to playing in groups with musicians such as legendary Coltrane drummer Elvin Jones and jazz god
Miles Davis.
"He's a heavy hitter," Gnojek said. "He played with Miles and has done some amazing stuff through the years."
be one of the more influential trumpeters.
Gnojek plans to attend all of the performances and said he considered the lineup to be way above average.
"These are big names for anywhere," he said.
Performances won't be the only way students can take advantage of the jazz festival. Workshops and clinics will be held from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. through tomorrow.
Yesterday afternoon at Swarthout Recital Hall, Daniels answered questions from a group of about 50 students and faculty.
Daniels spoke about life after college for music students in between rehearsing songs with the KU Jazz Combo I, with whom he performed last night along with the KU Symphonic Band.
"Everyone has a trepidation about what life is going to be like after school," Daniels said. "In the real world you really have to lav your you've learned on the line."
A couple of students told Daniels about their aspirations to become professional musicians.
"It's hard to make a living out of music," said Daniels, who has played professionally for about the past 35 years. "You should remember that the end of school is not the end of learning. Your education really begins after college."

Walk-a-thon to give deaf-blind 'Hope,' funds
Katty's Hope five-mile walk-a-thon for deaf-beginning scholarships tomorrow at 10 a.m. at Potter Lake
scholarships tomorrow at 10 a.m. at Potter Lake
By Chris Hopkins chopkins@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
Whenever someone asks Julie Woodward why she works so hard for Katlyn's Hope, she just tells them to think about what it would be like to be unable to hear or see.
Katlyn's Hope will be holding a five mile walk-a-thon to raise money for scholarships for the deaf-blind at 10 a.m. tomorrow at Potter Lake.
Jason Williams/KANSAN
Katlyn's hope was started by Jeff and Shari Willis. They were living in Emporia when their daughter, Katlyn, was born in June 1995.
Jeff Willis said that it had been difficult to find help for Katlyn.
The only group in Kansas to help the deaf blind during that time was the Helen Keller Foundation, which only helped people age 16 and older, said Woodward, who
Katlyn was born deaf-blind.
"When we had Katlyn, we found out it was so hard to find resources," he said.
took care of Katlyn during the day.
When Katlyn died in February of 1986 from a respiratory infection, Willis said that he and Shari sought out organizations that served the young deaf-blind and couldn't find any.
This is the second year the University of Kansas has held the event. In the event's first year, it was held in Shawnee.
Colleen Mathia, Lawrence junior and member of Delta Gamma sorority, is a member of KU Sight and Hearing Association, which sponsored the event. She said that she hoped that a lot of students would come to the event.
Mathia said that members of other sororities had told her that there were groups going from their houses.
"We have seven or eight girls from my house going," she said.
Woodward said that all the money is given to deaf blind youths, ages 21 and under. Two scholarships will be presented at the walk-a-thon, including $1,000 to Alan Bodiley of Millville, Utah, and $500 to Amanda Jones of Effingham.
Willis said that Katlyn's Hope brought in about $25,000 in donations last year, from an auction, a children's carnival and the walk-a-thon.
Connie Bodley, Alan's mother, said that the money would be used to buy special computer equipment that would print braille.
"Right now, being deaf and blind, it's really hard for him to access information," she said.
Bodiley said she hoped this would help him use e-mail and the Internet.
Woodward said that prizes would be given to the walkers who received the most pledges, including a television from Rent to Own and a cruise from Royal Caribbean. Royal Caribbean will also match up to $3,000 in donations, Woodward said.
For more information about tomorrow's walk-a-thon call Julie Woodward at 542-5014.

Gay, lesbian community gives students scholarships
By Clay McCuistion Special to the Kansan
Two KU students received $500 scholarships for service to the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender community last night.
Matthew Skinta, editor of the Queers and Allies newsletter, and Lisa Braun, former Queers and Allies student senator, were named as award winners before a speech last night by author Lesa Newman at the Kansas Union.
The scholarship is given through the KU endowment association each year. Applicants must have shown activism and support for the LBGT community, have a minimum grade point average of 3.0 and be enrolled at KU. Financial need can also be a factor.
Maggie Childs, Gay and Lesbian Academic Staff Advocates president, announced the winners. Childi was chair of the fiveperson award selection committee.
"We decided to give two awards because the candidates were so terrific," said Childs, an associate professor of Japanese. "Their records of service to the community were very impressive."
Childs said Skinta and Braun's advocacy impacted many.
"The nature of our community is such there's a lot of people you influenced that you'll never know." Childs said.
Skinta is the editor of Vanguard, the Queers and Allies newsletter. He also is the publicity director for Politically active Queers and a member of the Kansan editorial board.
He is the first male to receive the award, which is in its third year.
"I'm greatly honored," Skinta said. "I just hope I can stay so motivated in the future."
Braun was the first person to hold the position of Queers and Allies senator. She also is copresident of Politically Active Queers.
"This is amazing," Braun said. "It's really easy to be a leader when you have so many great people working with you."
Christine Robinson, director of Queers and Allies, wrote letters of recommendation for both Skinta and Braun.
"Lisa and Matthew have committed an extraordinary amount of time and energy," said Robinson. "They have done more in terms of reaching out to our allies, and in terms of serving our community and educating the campus than any other two students who haven't received the award."
Robinson said that the award had an important purpose.
"It's important to recognize all the hours that people give to the queer community," Robinson said.
She cited the statistic that one third of teen suicide attempts are based on confusion about sexual identity and orientation.
"This work saves lives," Robinson said.

Forum to answer students' free enterprise questions
Business students hope to teach others to start businesses
By Scott Hollis
Special to the Kansan
A forum that will teach people about the opportunities in starting a business of their own will target a non-business student audience.
The KU chapter of AIESEC, a French
acronym for International Association of Students in Economics and Business, and the KU Students in Free Enterprise will sponsor the Small Business and Entrepreneurial forum, which is from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. tomorrow at Wooldford Auditorium in the Kansas Union.
Local young entrepreneurs, bankers and representatives from the Small Business Development Center and the Small Business Association will be at the forum to answer questions.
Coordinator for the forum, Brent Mertz, Lawrence junior, said the forum would be for students who wanted to learn about how to start a business. He said this was important
students need to learn about free enterprise because, eventually, a majority of people will have thoughts about opening their own business," Mertz said. "If they don't have the proper base knowledge they may be more likely not to attempt it or follow through."
for students who were not going to take a large core curriculum of business classes.
Mertz said that free enterprise would interest students because someday, when they were finished with college, students would be interested in working for themselves.
"Sooner or later, people will think their job would be a lot more rewarding if they were doing it for themselves," he said. "Specifically, we want to provide a base knowledge for it and potentially plant the seed for starting a business for the future."
Scott Bacchus, Albuquerque, N.M., senior and AIESEC member, said that anyone was invited to the forum.
"We want to see a lot of people there," he said. "The forum is open to students and the general public as well. We want everyone to get involved and ask questions."
The idea for the forum came from a survey, which showed that KU students had an interest in starting their own businesses. The results of the survey showed that:
23 of 30 architecture students,17 of 30 engineering students and 12 of 30 fine arts students reported they had an interest in starting their own business.
19 of 30 architecture students, 12 of 30 engineering students and 7 of 30 fine arts students reported they thought they would start their own businesses.
23 of 30 architecture students, 22 of 30 engineering students and 16 of 30 fine arts students reported they would take an entrepreneurship class if offered.
The survey was conducted by students in an entrepreneurship class within the School of Business.
Children's literature collection growing
Edited by Chris Fickett
By Kimberly Erb Special to the Kansan
When the School of Education moves to its new home at Joseph R. Pearson Hall in Spring 2000, its curriculum library will feature a children's literature collection unprecedented at the University of Kansas.
Diane Nielsen, associate professor of education, said that the collection would grow by 500 to 1,000 new books each year after the move.
Nielsen said that she initiated the collection of children's books in 1990 because so few were available for teaching related courses. Every year since, in conjunction with the school's Learning Resource Center, she has accumulated a limited number of books through various funds and grants.
School of Education moves to JRP Hall in spring of 2000

"They just don't have it in the main University budget to buy a lot of children's books," she said.
Nielsen is now receiving books from publishing houses free of charge as part of a project through the International
Reading Association.
The project, called Teachers' Choices,
divides the United States into regions
and sends books to people within each
region to be read and reviewed.
Nielsen, as area coordinator for the plains region, receives the books and is responsible for disseminating them to area teachers and librarians. She then tabulates the readers' reviews and reports her findings. In exchange, she is allowed to keep the books.
When the project ends later this year, Nielsen has arranged a program with several publishing houses in which she and the school will be given children's books in exchange for their promotion.
Nielsen said that the growing collection would be an asset to the University in many ways, including the opportunity to develop more courses on children's literature.
"Because of the quality of children's books that are published, schools use a lot of them to teach with," she said.
Arlene Barry, associate professor of education, said that the collection
would introduce students to a variety of books of different genres and reading levels.
"It's a good working example of the kinds of things teachers can be putting in their own libraries," she said
Access to the books will allow teachers and librarians to review the books before purchasing them for their own libraries and classes, she said.
Nielsen said that the books would also be valuable to students, faculty and community members.
Nielsen does not know the monetary value of the present children's literature collection, but said that hardbound books cost about $15 and that there now were about 1,000 books in the collection. That is an average value of $15,000.

Four students recognized for book collections
By Karen Lucas
Special to the Kansan
Building a book collection can bring not only pleasure but also money and recognition.
Such was the case yesterday when four KU students received prizes at the 43rd annual Snyder Book Collecting Contest.
Michael Foubert, Olathe graduate student, won first prize for a collection of writings about AIDS, which he began in the early '80s.
"I started collecting books on the topic for my own education and to share with others," he said.

education and to share with others. He said,
Obertbent said he had met several authors of the books
in this collection.
The other first-prize winner was Jeff O'Neal, Lawrence junior. O'Neal's collection focused on African-American culture in New York during the 1920s. Books by Burton W. Peretti, Zora Neale Hurston and Langston Hughes formed part of the collection.
O'Neal said that an American literature class had snarked his interest in the subject.
Helen Sheumaker, Lawrence graduate student, and Monica Peck, Kansas City, Kan., senior, won second place awards. Sheumaker's collection consisted of how-to books, while Peck's entries were poetry books published by small presses.
$150 for second prize. Each prize consisted of a gift certificate from the Mt. Oread Bookshop and a cash award from an endowed fund established by Elizabeth Snyder

Individual winners received $300 for first prize and
One of this year's judges was Liane Cantelmi, who won first prize as a graduate student in 1996.
Cantelmi had nothing but praise for the finalists' collections.
"They were all very interesting and showed great potential for future growth." she said.
The winners' collections are on exhibit in the Jim Ranz Reading Area on the third floor of Watson Library.

NATO continues Kosovo air strikes
The Associated Press
BELGRADE, Yugoslavia — A day after its bombs hit a convoy of refugees in Kosovo, NATO pressed ahead with its air camp yesterday, hitting military barracks, TV transmitters and bridges
throughout Yugoslavia
NATO expressed deep regret about the "tragic accident," saying its planes had been targeting Serb forces when they struck a column of ethnic Albanians fleeing the province.

The bombing Wednesday left refugees' bodies dismembered and burned on a Kosovo road.

Morini, where international aid workers were operating and refugees were passing through, said monitors from the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe, which watches the border.
Thousands of ethnic Albanians crossed over into Macedonia and Albania on yesterday, fleeing what they described as a methodical Serb push to empty towns and villages in Kosovo.
Yugoslavia renewed its denunciation of the attack on the convoy.
"This is the worst picture of a humanitarian catastrophe brought on by the NATO bombings," Foreign Ministry spokesman Nebojsa Vujovic said.
In Dijakovica (jah-koh-VEET-sah), the main town nearest the attack, an investigative judge said 69 bodies, mostly women, children and elderly, had been identified so far.
But there were additional charred bodies and body parts, making a precise body count difficult, said the judge, Milenko Momclovic.
Sixteen-year-old Teuta Sulja told reporters on an official Yugoslav-organized trip to the strike site that seven people were killed on the flatbed trailer she was riding on.
"I lost an uncle and a father and another relative," she said.
Principals ban Pokemon
Hot-selling cards causing problems at many schools

PELHAM, N.Y. — Pikachu, Jigglypupp and the other mutating monsters on the Pokemon juggernaut are running into roadblocks at grade schools around the country.
The hot-selling trading cards that capitalize on the Japanese cartoon phenomenon have been banned, restricted or discouraged by some principals in New York, New Jersey, Washington and elsewhere because they're distracting the early-reading set.
In Pelham, just north of New York City, all four grade schools have come down in some fashion on the cards, which have sold in the millions since they came out in January.
"They seem to be the latest craze and the children are beginning to become obsessed by them," said Gerard Finelli, the principal at Colonial school. Finelli has banned trading between pupils "because some of our younger kids were getting suckered out of their more valuable cards."
The cards are banned entirely at Prospect Hill school, where principal Richard Limato said. "We were having instances in which the children were losing them and then getting very upset."
Kevin Wolski, a second-grader at Colonial, has about 60 of the cards, a poster illustrating all 150 of the sometimes cuddy, sometimes scary monsters, a Pokemon comic book, a T-shirt and a pin. The 7-year-old doesn't bring his cards to school anymore because "the teachers don't like it and the principal said he'd better not catch us trading."
Besides, he said, wide-eyed, "Somebody was stoiling them!"
Like millions of other kids, Kevin jumps out of bed to watch the Pokemon cartoon each morning and can converse rapidly and astutely about the details of the trading-card game: about the gentle goldfish Magikarp, who can evolve into the powerful sea serpent Gyarados; about Psyduck, whose powers increase "if he has a really bad headache"; and about Kadabra, "who can hypnotize lightning bolts when his eyes light up."
Kevin's mother, Linda, has no objections to her son's new obsession, noting that the cards encourage kids to read, the game requires some arithmetic skills, and the cartoon takes pains to teach lessons, "like making fun of the vanity of the villain."
Kevin's father, Mike, likes that among the big-eyed human characters, "boys and girls are equally powerful."
The Pokemon phenomenon originated in japan three years ago as a Nintendo Game Boy game. Until recently, it was best-known for the cartoon episode that sent 700 Japanese viewers to hospitals when they reacted, some with epilepsy-like spasms, to a scene that flashed bright colors in rapid succession.
Man opens fire, kills two in Mormon church's library
The Associated Press
SALT LAKE CITY — A disheveled man calmly walked into the Mormon church's renowned genealogical library during an international convention yesterday and methodically began shooting people with a small caliber handgun.
Before it was finished, the gunman had killed a church security officer and a library patron and wounded five others, including a police officer. He was shot by police and died later in an ambulance. Police knew of no motive.
"He didn't say anything. He just came in and started shooting people," said Margaret Kane, who was at the library when the man opened fire.
"He just looked intent on what he was doing. He came to do what he was doing," said Kane, who huddled under a desk in the first-floor research area as the man roamed the lobby and adjacent classrooms. "I did not hear him say anything. He didn't call out, no names or anything. He just kept his hand held out pointing at people."
Police Chief Ruben Ortega said police had identified the gunman, who had a local address, a wife and children and a prior criminal record, but it did not immediately release his name.
The library, the largest center for
genealogical research in the world, is directly across the street from the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints' Salt Lake Temple and Tabernacle. It has more than 2 million rolls of microfilm copies of census and other records from more than 100 countries.
An international genealogical convention had attracted heavy traffic to the library, which has two floors below ground level and three above. About 250 people — patrons and employees — are in the building on a typical day.
Lyman Platt, a genealogist, said that the gunman entered the library and quickly fired off a dozen rounds.
"He came in the lobby and shot a lady in the head and two or three other men," Platt said.
The gunman, who had exchanged fire with police, was taken out of the building to an ambulance parked in front of a nearby restaurant about 90 minutes after the first shots were fired.
Paramedics at first believed he might be wired with an explosive and the area was evacuated. Police Sgt. Ken Hansen said the gunman died in the ambulance and was not carrying explosives.
The bomb squad was considering blowing up a truck parked three blocks away thought to belong to the gunman. Police believed it may have been booby-trapped.
Scientists discover evidence of additional solar system
The Associated Press
SAN FRANCISCO — The first evidence of the existence of another solar system somewhat like our own was reported yesterday.
The discovery indicates that the Milky Way, which contains about 200 billion stars, probably has numerous planetary systems, San Francisco State University researchers said in announcing the find.
Astronomers knew one planet was circulating around Upsilon Andromedae, 44 light years from Earth. But after studying 107 stars for 11 years at the Lick Observatory near San Jose, Calif., scientists said evidence of two additional planets has been spotted. The discovery would mean that for the first time, a true solar system — with multiple planets — had been located
"It implies that planets can form more easily than we ever imagined, and that our Milky Way is teeming with planetary systems," said Debra Fischer, one of the researchers.
sions, astronomers can calculate back-and- forth shifts in the ultraviolet wavelengths. A larger wobble indicates the orbiting planet is large.
The planets were discovered using a method that measures their gravitational pull on their star, not by direct observation. Planets' gravity tugs on their stars, causing them to wobble slightly. By examining the star's ultraviolet light transmis-
Astronomers from the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics in Cambridge, Mass., and at the High-Altitude Observatory in Boulder, Colo., independently identified the two new planets.
The innermost of the three planets has at least 75 percent of the mass of Jupiter and is very close to its sun, orbiting once every 4.6 days. The middle planet is twice Jupiter's mass and orbits the star every 242 days from a location about as far as Venus from the sun. The outer planet has the mass of four Jupiters and orbits its star every 31/2 to 4 years. It is more than twice as far from its star as Earth is from the sun.
No theory predicted that so many huge planets would form around a star, said astronomer Geoffrey Marcy, a member of the discovery team.
"I am mystified at how such a system of Jupiter-like planets might have been created," he said. "This will shake up the theory of planet formation."
Alex Wolszczan, an astronomy professor at Penn State University, called the discovery an important step toward understanding the cosmos.

Archbishop Desmond Tutu inspired a democratic South African nation and has dedicated his life to ending racial segregation.
If our case is unassailable then we don't need to be shrill and intolerant; we don't have to raise our voice. We just have to improve our argument.

POLAND
— excerpt from Desmond Tutu's "Freedom and Tolerance—On Religious Diversity"
By Tiffany Seeman Special to the Kansan
Archbishop Desmond Tutu, a man of small stature but enormous influence and accomplishment, will visit the University of Kansas at 7 p.m. Sunday at Allen Fieldhouse.
In 1984, Tutu was recognized for his efforts in ending racial segregation, or apartheid, in South Africa and was awarded the Noble Peace Prize. In a speech "Bridging the Chasm between Black and White," Tutu will discuss his peaceful fight to end apartheid.
"Tutu has been instrumental in changes of attitude in race relations outside the United States," said Cody Simms, Student Union Activities forums coordinator. SUA sponsored Tutu's visit to the University. The University paid $60,000 to bring Tutu here. About 4,000 people are expected to attend, Simms said.
Tutu has dedicated his life to ending apartheid and improving race relations in South Africa. The Union of South Africa was formed in 1910 by the Dutch and British, who had been in the area since 1820. The small percentage of caucasians installed a caucasian-dominated government. In 1948, apartheid laws were formed by the ruling National Party, which sought to extend white social power.
"The government became dominated by the African-Dutch, who were much narrower minded than the British," said Robert Shelton, associate professor of Religious Studies and the University Ombudsman.
Apartheid laws included segregation of schools and requiring all non-caucasians in South Africa to carry identification cards.
"The government legally defined racial
groups," Shelton said. "They determined where people could live. Often, men would leave their families behind to find work. The things happening were extremely oppressive and demeaning."
Tutu could see there was extreme tension between the races in South Africa and was determined to help improve the situation.
Following in his father's footsteps, Tutu, who originally wanted to be a teacher, spent four years teaching after he received his Bachelor of Arts from the University of South Africa.
But, Tutu realized that his greatest influence would not be felt through teaching in high schools because of their segregation. Shelton said.
He said that Tutu decided he would be a more effective influence by becoming a priest. Rev. Trevor Huddelson, a priest for the Church of England in South Africa and an early outspoken critic of apartheid, was Tutu's source of influence and inspiration.
In 1958, Tutu entered the ministry and was ordained a priest in 1961.
Tutu's appointment as General Secretary of the South African Council of Churches in 1975 marked the beginning of
his career as a national and international figure. Under his direction, the council became a vital institution in South Africa and assisted the victims of apartheid.
Tutu wanted to use non-violent measures to end apartheid. He focused on convincing western countries to stop supporting South Africa. This international pressure on the National Party forced its collapse and the end of apartheid.
"Apartheid was suddenly wiped out because western countries boycotted South Africa," Shelton said, "Tutu was instrumental in convincing other governments to stop supporting South Africa."
Tutu now is head of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission that works to reconcile the deep lines of division between the people of South Africa and the old government.
"Tutu takes a thoroughly Christian idea that rather than get revenge for what people have done, reconcile these people," Shelton said.
People who want to seek amnesty for actions they did during apartheid go to the Truth and Reconciliation Commission. The people seeking amnesty must admit their crime to the Commission and answer questions about the event. Before granting amnesty, the Commission determines whether the people are telling the truth. Those that aren't telling the truth are given to the government for punishment.
"On this scale, I'm not aware of any historical precedent for something like this," Shelton said.
Simms said that bringing someone of international influence was a priority for SUA. He said that Tutu was precisely what the organization wanted.
"This is a testimony that KU is trying to expand its international conscious," he said.
Tutu is now the Robert W. Woodruff visiting professor at Emory University in Atlanta and is touring the nation speaking at universities.
Simms said that although Tutu was on tour, the University was fortunate to have Tutu speak to such a large audience.
Simms emphasized the message that Tutu has for students at the University. He said that students could look at this event and see a person instrumental in attitude changes in South Africa — and in the United States.
"Obviously this is an extremely rare opportunity to be in the presence of someone who is having a major impact on what is going on in the world," Shelton said. "What he is saying is important for anyone in the human world."

Goodbye Lover says sayonara to humor

Goodbye Lover
Rating: D
By Brendan Walsh Kansan movie critic
The humorous moments in Goodbye Lover are few and far between. This black comedy is bleak and boring, with uncompelling characters and little humor. Only those with unhealthy Patricia Arquette obsessions will find entertainment here.
Characters start double-crossing one another and committing murder all over the place. Not content to do things themselves, multiple characters hire Vincent Gallo (of Buffalo '65) as a hit man. Rita Pomano (Ellen DeGeneres) is the detective brought in to make sense of things. While her naive partner spends a good deal of time being confused and preaching about worldly sins, Rita takes charge and sorts things out.
Arquette plays Sandra Dummore, an attractive, friendly, churchgoing woman whose husband, Jake (Dermot Mulroney) is an executive in a public relations firm. Lo and behold, despite her attendance at church, it turns out that Sandra isn't really all that affair with Jake's brother, Ben (Don Johnson). She proposes that she and Ben kill Jake, but Ben freaks out and starts to date Peggy Blaine (Mary-Louise Parker).
Arquette, despite her bad teeth,
does an OK job of being seductive
on screen. However, her kinky

sex scenes contract sharply with the character's whiny moments, creating more repulsion than attraction. Still, those that liked her in True Romance will probably enjoy her in Goodbye Lover.
DeGeneres's character is the most entertaining and likable of the bunch. Smart and witty, with a dry humor. Rita is the type of character that should have been featured in the film. With Goodbye Lover and EDtv, it seems DeGeneres successfully has made the leap from TV to film. It's a shame she had to waste her talents in this cesspool.
Mary-Louise Parker does a good job of having great hair. Ditto for Don Johnson.
LAST SUNDAY, JULY 31, 2015.
Black comedy is much more effective when it's actually humorous. Like last fall's Very Bad Things, or last winter's Jawbreaker, Goodbye Lover spends
too much time showing how evil and misguided certain characters are, without stopping for a laugh. Just the fact that someone is obsessed with murder isn't funny by itself, especially when one can read about real people obsessed with murder in the newspaper.
My Friend Steve mistakes imitation for innovation

MY FRIEND STEVE
HOPE 2 WAIT.
MUSIC
REVIEV
By Matt Cox
Kansan music boy
My Friend Steve takes the cake when it comes to a band imitating a more popular band. It's almost like they meant to sound like they are just to trying to get a radio single.
This album was better the first time I heard it when it was called Recovering the Satellites from Counting Crows.
If that's true, it worked. The band's single on modern rock radio, Charmed, sounds almost identical to Angels of the Silences, a past single from Counting Crows. The melody of the verses is basically the same and lead singer Steven Burry sounds exactly like Adam Duritz of the Counting Crows.
The rest of the album sounds heavily influenced by the Crows with a touch of The Wallflowers. But it feels like an emulation rather than original music with influences from other bands
The Schooling is about losing your self-esteem when your idols fall. It begins with an acoustic guitar and vocals similar to a campfire folk song. The rest of the instruments come rolling in with airy background vocals on a layer of an organ line.
The vocals aren't memorable and aren't trying to be. The music is nothing to raise an eyebrow at either.
Day Begun contributes to the mundane theme of the album. A
typical guitar rhythm begins the song with Burry singing like he's trying to teach third-graders a melody. People that have no concept of music could give this guy lessons on how to write a somewhat catchy song.
The lyrics talk of the drugery of everyday life. Burry sings, "In comes the sun, day begun whether I like it or not."
The song lasts for eight minutes, unless you realize that the track number has changed from three to four indicating that another song, All in All, is playing. These songs sound the same and should have been spread out on different parts of the album.
Better Left Behind is another rip-off. The Counting Crows' 'Rain King' is the target this time. It has practically the same melody of the Crows' hit. This further displays Burry's inability to separate influence from imitation.
Backwards and Sideways has Violent Femmes influence, but doesn't copy any particular Femmes song. Too bad it's too short. Burry's vocals take a step up in variety, but don't step away from sounding like Adam Duritz.
The highlight is the album cover. It shows a yellow chair near the background sitting on concrete, up against a blue-tiled wall. It's very moving.

Baseball ready to snap streak after week off

The middle of the Big 12 baseball season usually doesn't include a week off. For the Jayhawks, however, that's what they got.
Thanks to this raindouts versus Wichita State this week, the 'Hawks are healthy, rested and prepared for their series with Oklahoma State.
Oklahoma State.
"I'm anxious to play some baseball," coach Bobby Randall said. "We've had two good practices, and I liked the way we've worked this week. We've swung the bats well and we're ready."
The Cowboys come in owning a 26-10 overall record and an 8-7 B12 mark, but find themselves in an unfamiliar sixth place in the conference.

"The they've always been known for their offense, but this year what I've heard is that their pitching is strong." Randall said.
Randall has heard correct. Starter Matt Smith is 7-1 with a 2.14 ERA, while reliever Ryan Herrmann owns an incredible 0.98 ERA. Smith is scheduled to throw game one for the Cowboys.

nine-game losing streak." "Last year down there was a home-run fest," Philbrick said. "I think it'll be different here."
Snapping the losing streak is of utmost importance for the 'Hawks if they plan to play in the Big 12 Tournament. The Jayhawks are in 10th place, but stand only one game back in the winning column of the eighth and final spot.
"After the Missouri series everyone was real down because they thought there was no hope for us to make it to the tournament," Philbrick said. "But after looking at it, we're still in it and we all think that 10 wins will get us in. We've got nine conference games left and need to get six."
Randall agreed, but said that the team may need to get eight. He also said that baseball couldn't be predicted and that the focus still was to get better everyday and play good baseball.

Trying weekend awaits 'Hawks
Dan Dercher, Justin Glasgow anticipating call from NFL
By Mike Harrity Kansan sportswriter
The drill has been the same for the past few days in the Lawrence apartment shared by former Jayhawk football players Dan Dercher and Justin Glasgow.
Walk in the door. Head straight for the answering machine. Push play. Listen to the voices of the potential emplovers who nearly fill the tape.
Wednesday, there were messages from a New York Jets coach and a Philadelphia Eagles scout for Derker. Yesterday, there was one from a Miami Dolphins coach for Glasgow.
M. B. KIMBROOK
Dercher and Glasgow, offensive linemen, will endure the torture of waiting tomorrow and Sunday while seven rounds of the NFL draft unfold.
Dercher's chances of getting drafted are higher. He was the lone Jayhawk invited in February to the NFL scout combine, which welcomes only the nation's top players. Glasgow did well in a workout for scouts on campus in March and hopes, if not drafted, to get on a roster as a free agent once the draft is completed.
So goes the life of former college football players on the verge of realizing dreams of playing in the NFL.

them. "I'll probably have sweaty palms all day long watching the TV," said Dercher of the draft, which ESPN will air Saturday and ESPN2 will show Sunday. "Till just be sitting and watching, hoping to see my name go across across the screen."
Both just want the weekend to come and go as quickly as their minds are racing this last day before finding out where the next step of their football career will take them.
He could could find himself in Kansas City, practicing with the Chiefs. Or, maybe he'll be sweating under the Florida sun with his Dolphins teammates.
The truth is, Glasgow doesn't care where he ends up — as long as he ends up in the NFL.
"It's like this nervousness and excitement all at once."
Glasgow said. "I don't really have a preference where I go. I'm just hoping for anything."
After starting the last 33 games of his Kansas career, Glasgow spent last Christmas in Montgomery, Ala., playing in the Blue-Gray College All-Star Game. Hundreds of NFL personnel people lined the field during the week of practices leading up to the game.
Playing under the microscope manned by the holders of his football future didn't faze Glasgow. The culminating event of a solid week's worth of practices came during the game. Glasgow easily handled the task of blocking Louisiana State defensive lineman Anthony McFarland, who is projected as a first-round pick by ESPN draft gruel Mel Kiper, Jr.
Dan Dercher is reading a print-out from an issue of *Pro Football Weekly* that details his positives and negatives as an NFL hopeful. Among the negatives listed are that he lacks the body mass, thick thighs and large butt that coaches want in an offensive tackle.
Glasgow hopes to play against McFarland again — in the NFL.
"I was so happy to do well in front maybe I turned a few head," said Glasgow, who is ranked as the 30th best offensive guard available by Pro Football Weekly. "I hope somebody noticed."
"I was so happy to do well in front of all the scouts, and

Dercher laughs.
"My butt taint big enough? Man, those guys say anything and know nothing," Dercher said. "I've seen things on the Internet that have me projected to get drafted in the third round and I've seen ratings where I'm not in the top 25-ranked tackles. I don't worry about it, though. I'll just wait and see this weekend."
Most of the messages on the answering machine during the last few weeks have been for Dercher. The New York Jets have already asked what airport he'd fly out of to come to next weekend's post-draft mini-camp workout. The Chicago Bears have told him that they plan to draft him, probably on Sunday, when rounds four through seven are completed.
seven are completed. At the NFL combine in Indianapolis, players are judged on everything from how high they jump to how they look in their boxers.

Team supports former player battling cancer

On Aug. 7, a physician diagnosed a rare bone tumor on Lumpkin's left tibia, the shin bone, at his knee. Since the tumor had formed on the bone, it was not too dangerous, but it started to spread into his lungs.
For former Kansas tennis player Andrew Lumpkin, Littleton, Colo., junior, physical therapy is the fun part.
A recent CAT scan in his chest showed no sign of trouble.

Lumpkin completed three cycles of chemotherapy in Littleton before undergoing surgery on Nov. 14. After the surgery, he completed three more cycles of chemotherapy which finished one month ago.
"I'm feeling great," Lumpkin said. "I have a lot of energy, and I'm much more active."
Now, he is doing physical therapy to try to rebuild his strength.
"This part is fun," Lumpkin said. "The worst part is over."
Lumpkin said that through everything he had endured, his faith had helped him stay strong.

"I'm a Christian, and ever since I was diagnosed, I had a calmness that it was in the right hands and whatever happened was meant to be," Lumpkin said.
He said he also drew strength from his friends and family. He keeps in touch with his teammates, and said they were very supportive.
Coach Mark Riley said he was amazed at Lumpkin's strength.
"My family and friends were phenomenal," Lumpkin said. "Everyone did far better than I can imagine doing in their situation."

"He has a toughness like I have never seen," Riley said. "He told me it was just something he had to deal with, and he got through it."

Andrew Lumpkin, Tittleton, Colo., junior, returns a fore- hand hit across the net. Lumpkin was diagnosed with a rare form of cancer in August and has undergone six chemotherapy sessions and a surgery while on the road to recovery. Though Lumpkin completed chemotherapy sessions a month ago and said he felt good, he will be unable to return to the tennis team. Contributed photo.
Lumpkin took a year off from school but plans to attend the University of Kansas next fall. He will not return to the tennis team. His orthopedic surgeon said he would not recommend tennis or any activity that would cause high impact to Lumpkin's knee.
Riley said that Lumpkin's presence on the team was missed.
"The thing we miss most is his humor." Riley said.
"He makes things more relaxed. It's different any time you're used to having someone around and they can't be there anymore."

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday:
You're very lucky this year, so focus on money. There's lots coming in, so you need luck to make a profit, especially in April. In May, structure is required. In June, you'll have plenty of everything, especially friends. In August, children are a major influence in your life, and November is a good time to make sound investments. Go back to a better way in December, and let a dream come true in February. Put a private fear to rest in March.
Aries (March 21-April 19): Todav is a 5.
Arles (March 21- April 19): Today is a 3.
Don't go off on a buying spree until you've done the math first. You need to know how much there is before you spend it. The urge to splurge is strong, but save a little for tomorrow. You may find something like even better then.
Taurus (April 20-May 20): Today is a 5.
You're much stronger today, with the moon in your sign. You can withstand just about anything, and you may realize how much you already know. Your experience comes in very handy in unexpected moments.
Today, watch out for another one.
Gemini (May 21-June 21): Today is a 5.
Germany May 2, 2017
You may feel tired today, whether you've actually done the work or not. The adrenaline level over the last few days has been intense, and you've no doubt been pumped. Don't make any high-energy plans for this evening. You'll probably want to snuggle in early
Cancer (June 22-July 22): Today is a 6.
Cancer (June 22- July 22): Today is a 6.
An older friend's wisdom will come in handy now, but you're pretty good to have around too. You can see something the other person is missing. Between the two of you, you'll have the problem solved, but either of you alone could just make more problems. Work together.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Today is a 4.
It's always important to play by the rules, but today more than ever. An older person will be sure to remind you, if you forget. In other words, watch out today for kindly folk in marked vehicles enforcing the traffic regulations. That's only one of many ways reality could tap you on the shoulder.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sep. 22): You are a 6.
At first it seems like a good weekend to travel, but looks can be deceiving. There's work to be handled at home, and maybe that should have first priority. You're in an either-or situation, it would appear, but with planning you can have it all, or most of it, anyway.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Today is a 6.
Libra (Seat. 23-Oct. 23): Today is a 5.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Today is a 5.
Money is not an issue with you, right? There's always enough to go around. But today, you may wonder how. There's more going out than coming in, or that's how it appears at first. Don't worry about spending much on romance. It won't be necessary.
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Today is a 5.
It's good to have someone you can trust, somebody you can tell your secrets to, somebody you know will always be there. But today, it could be a little stifling, too. Don't complain if your partner reacts in the same old way again.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Today is a 5.
The work you've been putting off all week is starting to pile up, and there's no avoiding it any longer. If you hurry and get it done, you might even beat the deadline, and that would certainly be wise. Looks like you've run out of extensions.
P
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Today is a 6.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Today is a 6.
Romance is your focal point today, and if you rearranged the furniture last night and got everything set just right, you've got the perfect little place for a lover's conversation. If you can avoid talking about money, everything should go perfectly.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Today is a 4.
Although you're brilliant, you probably haven't learned how to clone yourself yet so you can be in two places once, or how to beam yourself from one location to another in nanoseconds. So just do the best you can.
2
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Today is a 6.
It may have been hard to concentrate lately, but today that shouldn't be a problem. The moon's transit into Taurus always helps you settle down. Your only problem is that you'll want to travel, but maybe you can put that off until tomorrow, or later on this evening.

It was not immediately clear if the deal means the Colts will choose Heisman Trophy winner Ricky Williams with their No. 4, pick in the draft.
"We're very excited about it," Vermeil said. "I think it's an outstanding move for our organization. We got what I could say is a Pro Bow player. Our first-round pick is intact."

Hot hitting Chris Widger homered for the third time in his last two games for Montreal, going 2-for-4 with two RBI.

CHICAGO — Chicago's Scott Sanders hustled into the clubhouse, peeled off his uniform and got ready to board a bus bound for Milwaukee, where his next scheduled start is today. Weather permitting, of course.
Low temperature, wind postpone Cubs game
Sanders was supposed to pitch yesterday, but rain, biting winds and falling temperatures forced the Cubs' game against the Cincinnati Reds to be postponed. It will be made up as part of a doubleheader Sept. 7, the next time the Reds come to Wrigley Field.
sanders sounded a bit disappointed "The wind is blowing in, it's about 20 degrees, it's perfect pitching weather out there," he said.
CUB8
The game was called yesterday about 20 minutes after the scheduled starting time as several hundred fans sat shivering in the seats. Sanders will
probably get more of the same conditions after the Cubs travel 90 miles north to help the Browers open their home season in the final year for venerable Milwaukee County Stadium. More bad weather is expected for the weekend.
Cubs manager Jim Riggleman moved his rotation up a day. After Sanders goes today, he'll use Steve Trachsel and then probably versatile Teru Mullholland on Sunday.
Mulholland just happens to be the Cubs most reliable reliever, as well. And should he he needed out of the bulpen today or tomorrow, Chicago will go instead with Brad Woodall as Sunday's starter.
One pitcher whose status is still uncertain is right-hander Kevin Tapani, who had to leave Monday's home opener against the Reds after three innings with a sore shoulder.
Tapani, scratched as today's starter earlier in the week, had hoped to test his arm yesterday but couldn't because of the weather. He was scheduled to be examined by team physician Dr. Michael Schafer before joining the team in Milwaukee.

Junior golfer excels, fills No. 5 spot
By Brad Hallier sports@kansan.com Kansan sportswriter
By Brad Hallier
Before the spring season began for the men's golf team, it was obvious who the top four golfers were.
Senior Chris Thompson, a 1998 All-American, junior Ryan Vermeer, ranked 43rd in the country, junior Brad Davis and sophomore Conrad Roberts were clearly the top four choices for coach Ross Randall.
Selecting the crucial fifth man was going to be a tough task, or so Randall thought.
PETER B. SMITH
Randall: Found that picking No. 5 spot wasn't that difficult.
But the selection turned out to be an easy one
Junior Jake Istnick has gone from being in the pool of golfers fighting for the fifth spot to being one of the nicest surprises for the Jayhawks this year. His play has earned
him not only a regular spot on the team, but a ranking of 81st in the country in the latest MasterCard Rankings.
"I really like the way Jake has come around this spring." Randall said, "Going into this spring, I wasn't even sure if he'd be in the top five, but he has played well."
Istnick, who won his first collegiate individual title at the Stevinson Ranch Invitational in March, said that he knew it would be tough to crack the top five going into the spring season.
"I practiced a lot over the winter, and once I got the opportunity, I knew that I had to play well," he said. "I'm really happy with the success that I've had this year."
Istrick and the rest of the Jayhawks will travel to their final spring tournament before post-season play begins this week at the ASU Thunderbird Invitational in Tempe, Ariz.
"This is going to be a good tournament," Randall said. "It's one of the best tournaments in the country, and this will be the first time we've faced Oklahoma State, so it will be interesting to see how we stack up against them."
esting to see how we should the Cowboys, who have won 37 out of the last 41 conference titles, are ranked fifth in the country. Among the other teams that the
31st-ranked Jayhawks will face include 11th-ranked Washington, 21st-ranked Oklahoma, 24th-ranked California, 25th-ranked Stanford, 37th-ranked UCLA and 38th-ranked Southern California.
After this weekend, Kansas will take a week off and prepare for the Big 12 Conference Championships. Randall said that his team usually had two weeks or more off before the conference championships.

the two teams. Istknd said that the Jayhawks have all but wrapped up a spot at regionals, which is the NCAA Championships qualifying tournament. For that, Istknd said that he felt this weekend would be good because there would be less pressure on Kansas to perform well.
"I think that by securing a spot at regionals, it has taken the edge off for this weekend," he said. "We've had a strong season, and a good finish this weekend in a strong field can only build our confidence and improve our rankings, so this weekend I think we'll see what this team is made of."

"Man, I was sitting there in my boxers during my physical (which lasts six hours), and I got one guy yanking on my arm, while another is down there tugging on my knee. It was crazy." Dercher said. "The whole time, they shuttle you around from station to station like cattle. They prance you out on a stage in your boxers so all the NFL people sitting there can look at you and take notes."
take notes.
"And you have to get up at 5:30, so you're too tired to be nervous when it's time to run and do all the workout stuff. I just felt like saying, 'Geez, either I can play football or not.' Leaving there was probably the most relieved I've ever been in my life."
Dercher, rated as the 23rd best offensive tackle by *Pro Football Weekly*, expects either to be drafted during the last few rounds of the draft or signed as a free agent Sunday night.
"If I sit there Sunday, and I don't get drafted, I'll be disappointed," Dercher said. "But I'll just have to suck it up and keep going."
The next two days can't pass quickly enough for the roommates. Dercher will watch the draft
— with a phone near by in case a team calls his parents' home in Shawnee Mission. Glasgow will do the same at his parents' house in Topeka.
Dercher speaks for both when asked to explain his feelings heading into the weekend.

While some of the team is competing in Walnut, Calif., the rest of the men's and women's track team will travel to Fayetteville, Ark., to compete in the Arkansas Invitational today and tomorrow.
"This meet has grown a lot in the last two years," said Coach Gary Schwartz. "A number of people have gone down to Arkansas since we haven't had the Kansas Relays."
The field will feature 14 teams, including host Arkansas, ranked No. 1 in the NCAA. Other teams include Kansas' Big 12 rivals Oklahoma State, Kansas State and Iowa State and area schools Southwest Missouri State and Pittsburg State.
Freshman thrower Ryan Speers, who won the shot put at last weekend's Wichita State-Kansas-UMKC Triangular, has his sights set on a ton-two finish.

But freshman Jennifer Foster might have had the most impressive meet as she won the shot put and placed third in the discus and fourth in the hammer throw.
Sophomore Brian Blachly won the 3,000, and sophomore Greg Steele placed third in the pole vault.
"It'll be really fun," Speers said. "I don't look at it as it I don't get to go to California, I look at it as it'll be a good time and I have fun doing it. If I win, it'll be even more fun."
Though Speers is not at the meet in sunny California, he relishes the chance to compete at Arkansas.

Redshirt back switches to other side of the ball
By Michael Rigg
mtrigg@ukans.edu
Kansas sportwriter
At this rate, Matt Jordan will have played all 22 positions, and maybe placekick a little, by the end of spring practice.
Jordan, Junction City redshirt freshman, entered the spring as a highly regarded running back who played the position at Junction City High School and who earned all-state honors en route to rushing for 1,893 yards and 24 touchdowns his senior season.
He was there about four days before being switched to free safety, where his position will be re-evaluated after spring practice.
But Jordan ran headlong into the three-way logjam of Mitch Bowles, Henri Childs and David Winbush at the top of the running back depth chart, so he was switched to cornerback.
The sudden changes have led to mix-ups, sadd Dike Moseley, defensive secondary coach
"It's easy to say that he's confused." Moseley said. "With a pretty good committee of running backs, there was an opportunity to look at him at another position. We felt that if there was a future for him it would be at safety."
Jordan said that he agreed with Moseley's assessment of his play and mental state. While the sudden position shifts left him confused, he has learned more knowledge of the position with each day of practice, Jordan said.
"It's mostly mental because I have to get comfortable at the position so I can really trust what I'm doing." fortran said.
Of course, Jordan admittedly did not take kindly to the sudden change from all-state running back to lack-of-trades in the secondary.
MILWAUKEE
"I didn't really want to change because I had never really played defense," Jordan said. "I just have to get used to it."
just have to get used Getting used to the change should come easily for Jordan, about whom Kansas head coach Terry Allen talks very high.
"We're really excited about Matt Jordan," Allen said. "I'm really encouraged by and what a good fit he is on that side of the ball."
Jordan said that he has some work to do, but the mental clouds that were prominent during his first few practices at the position were starting to lift.
until standing with the other. Of course, the comprehension of the position doesn't mean there won't be more changes on the horizon for Jordan.
"I think I'm starting to get over the lack of understanding with it." Jordan said.
"We'll probably change it again next week," joked Allen.

The status for both players will be evaluated today, and a decision will be made on their availability for the rest of spring practice. Allen said.
Defensive back Tanner Hancock and wide receiver Byron Gasaway both were injured in yesterday's practice at Memorial Stadium. Hancock re-injured his left shoulder, which he initially injured last year in a skiing accident, Allen said. Gasaway sprained his knee.
On a more severe side, the team received bad news when it iteamed that the injury to the knee of linebacker Mitchell Scott was worse than originally imagined.
Scott will require surgery on his knee and will not return until the fall, Allen said.
Also, starting guard Dameon Hunt broke his thumb Monday and is out for the rest of the spring. Allen said the injury wasn't severe, but he didn't want to take any risks with Hunt
"In the fall, we would probably be able to play with him, but in the spring we don't want to take any chances," Allen said.

Kansas needs to smash top teams in the clutch
Team dropped 5 tie-breaks to two highly-ranked teams
By Melinda Weaver
sports@kansan.com
Kansas sportwriter
The road is not getting any smoother for the Kansas men's tennis team as it prepares to face No. 8 Baylor and No. 28 Texas Tech this weekend
weekend. The No. 40 Jayhawks are coming off of two 5-2 home losses to No. 5 Texas and No. 21 Texas A&M.
The team held its tough Big 12 Conference opponents close, however, dropping a total of five tie-breakers.
"We played two close matches against two fine teams," coach Mark Riley said. "We need to convert our opportunities. When we have
tie-breakers and set points, we need to finish the job. I feel like at the end of the sets, we did
the job. I feel like at the end we
'continue to do what got us
in the position to win. We can
win if we finish the job."
Baylor, 18-1 overall and 5-0 in the conference, started its season 14-0 before suffering its only loss of the season to Tennessee. The Bears have been ranked as high as third nationally.
Kansas senior Kenny Powell said he felt confident the team was ready to compete against a team as good as Bavlor.
We are in a perfect posi-

"We are in a perfect position to play Baylor because the two teams we competed against last weekend were just as good if not better than Baylor," Powell said. "We stayed neck-and-neck with Texas, and

they are a top-five team. Hopefully, we can take our confidence from the past weekend and go out there and claim a victory."
Kansas leads the series against Texas Tech 50, but Texas Tech never has been ranked higher than No.28 before.
Senior Luis Uribe said that in order to defeat Baylor and Texas Tech, the seniors needed to step up.

concerned to meet "We need experience." Uribe said. "We have a young team, but we showed last weekend that we can beat any team in the country. It's just a matter of working hard and having the confidence."

Riley said the team had come along way, but it still needed to improve.
"We're a neckuva lot better, but it's time we finish the job." Riley said. "We have to play a complete match. We play solid, but we have to complete the match playing solid."
Powell said he believed the team was ready to reach that level of play.
"I think we showed we are ready to compete at this level, but the question is, are we ready to accept the challenge of defeating them," Powell said. "I think we can now that the guys can see that and believe in themselves. We just need to go out and put the nail in the coffin."
Women's soccer looks to continue its winning ways

Kansas sportwriter
The Kansas women's soccer players have only one thought on their minds right now—winning.
After Saturday's tie with St. Louis and then notching two victories Sunday
against Evansville and Tulsa, they now have two wins and one tie.
The team will put an undefeated record on the line this Sunday as it journeys to St.

Louis to play a doubleheader against Arkansas at 11:30 a.m. and Arizona State at 1 p.m.
"I'm confident that we can go there and come away with two more wins, especially with the way we're improving every day," sophomore midfielder Colleen Colvin said.
Like Kansas, both opponents had losing records this past fall. Arizona State finished 7-11 and Arkansas ended at 6-11. But after an offseason full of changes, the Jayhawks have figured out what it will take for them to succeed.
"Many of the girls have had to make adjustments to odd positions, but everybody now understands their roles," coach Mark Francis said.
Despite the losing records, both opponents may prove to be formidable opponents to the Jayhawks. Kansas has been playing with a 14-player roster this spring and it will be even smaller this weekend with only one field substitute.
Freshman Melanie Schroeder, who scored the team's only goal against St. Louis, will be academically ineligible to play this weekend.
"These are going to be some tough games. It will be tougher since Mel Schroeder can't play this weekend. We will only have one sub," Francis said.
Francis said the players would benefit from the small squad.
"Having the low numbers has helped me because there are some people who have been able to play more," he said.

Women's tennis pounds Kansas State
Chiller named Big 12 Player of the Week
By Amanda Kaschube
sports@kansan.com
Kansas sportwriter
The women's tennis team's dominance against Kansas State continued Wednesday as the Jayhawks swept the Wildcats 9-0.
The shutout was the Jayhawks' third of the season. Earlier in the
season, Kansas swept Brigham Young and Iowa State.
The Jayhawks improved to 9-10 overall and 5-2 in the Big 12 Conference.
KANSAS TENNIS
Player of the Week.
Kansas is now 30-1 overall against K-State.
Kansas was led by junior Brooke Chiller, who now has won six of her last seven matches. Earlier this week. Chiller was named Big 12
PENGUIN
"I was shocked when I heard the news," she said. "It came at a really good time though; it brightened up my week."
Head Coach Jenny Garrity said she was pleased Chiller won.
Sell: Won both her singles and doubles matches.
"I was just so happy for her because she's had a really stressful week," she said. "Brooke's position (No. 2 singles) is just as big as the others, and it's nice she got recognized for her wins."
Along with her singles wins, Chiller also has compiled a 16-13 doubles record with partner junior Julia Sidorova. The team defeated K-State's No. 2 duo 8-6.
"We are both really aggressive players and we just have fun playing together." Sidorova said.
Chiller said the recent wins and
the Big 12 honors have given her more confidence and more of a drive to win future matches.
"Now I put more pressure on myself not to lose because I know how victory tastes," she said. "Now I have something to strive for."
Freshman Cheryl Mallaiah has compiled a five-game winning streak at No.3 singles. She is now 5-2 in the conference. Her sister Lisa has won four in a row and is now a perfect 6-0 in the conference.
Other Jayhawks also have increased their winning streaks by defeating the Wildcats.
Garrity attributed the success of the team to a new game plan.
Senior Kris Sell captured both singles and doubles wins at the No.1 position for the first time this season.
"We are concentrating on our weapons rather than the other team's weaknesses," she said. "We have more confidence when we do what we do well."
The Jayhawks travel to Oklahoma in search of two more conference wins this weekend. They face Oklahoma State and Oklahoma at noon tomorrow and Sunday, respectively.
"If we stick with our basic game plans,we can win. We just need to execute and play aggressive."

tomorrow and Sunday, respectively. Garrity said the team needed to maintain its current level of play to win in Oklahoma.
"If we stick with our basic game plans,we can win,"she said. "We just need to execute and play aggressive."
Sidorova said two victories this weekend would be nice.
Commentary
With two wins, the Jayhawks would be 5-4 in the conference and would have a winning record at 11-10 for the first time this season.
"It would definitely help improve our conference records and help get our ranking back up," she said.

Jayhawk fans socialize more than they cheer
Football team deserves stronger fan support
I know it is only April and football doesn't start until August, but the season will be here before you know it, and so I thought I would talk about it today. Besides, enrollment is going on now, and it is time to buy your sports packages for next year. I want to encourage everyone to do so. With seven home games plus all of the basketball games, it is a steal of a deal at just $100.
The support for the Kansas football program has been a little weak in the last several years, and it is time to change that. The Big 12 is one of the best football conferences in the nation and we should be proud to be a part of that. We get to play some of the best teams in the country each year, which is reason enough to go to home games, but we ranked last in average attendance last year.
Football seems to be a social sport here at KU, basically a chance to get drunk, and it's not just the students doing so. Students show up late to the games, and they leave at halftime to go to the bars or to go take a nap and sleep off their hangovers so they can go to the bars later on.
The alumni tailgate out in the parking lots, which is great, but they don't stop when the game starts. At halftime, they're back out there. They have keg parties out in
the lots — which is illegal but no one seems to mind — and maybe they will come in and watch a little of the game until we fall behind and then they are gone. I saw this firsthand last year at the Colorado game. I was with some alumni, and as soon as Colorado scored they said, "Let's go to the car and drink some beer." I didn't go, and I got to see one of the best home KU football games in years. They got to drink some beer.
Brandon Jones
sports@kansan.com
Here's the point I am getting at: you can party, drink or go to the bars anytime, anywhere seven days
a week, but you usually can only go to Kansas football games about 5 or 6 times a year. Take advantage of the rare opportunities you have to watch the team play, watch the band march and watch the cheerleaders cheer. Games only last a couple of hours; there will be plenty of time to drink and party before and after the game. The bars don't close until 2 a.m., and they are open seven days a week. Go to the games, cheer, stay until the end and then go do your thing.
Why should you go to the games? Because college sports and college football in particular are great. Game day on the Hill is just awesome. With the complete renovation of Memorial Stadium, it is going to be even better this year. Fall is beautiful, and nothing is better on a fall day then a Kansas football game. Come watch the band march down the hill, and come roaring into the tunnel under the stadium. It sounds awesome. Watch Coach Allen and the team come walking down hill — a cool new tradition. Watch the KU band come storming out from the North Bowl and march
onto the field. Finally, watch the boys in blue take the field and fight their hearts out for four quarters.
I know that the team has not had that much success the past couple of years, but I feel that it is right around the corner. Coach Allen is absolutely great — I can't say enough about him. I think he is going to be here for a long time, and he is going to turn this program around. He is a winner, he is a good man and he will bring pride to this program.
Get behind the team now, and come along for the ride. Coach Allen is doing everything in his power to get people to come out and support his team, and he is doing everything he can to make it a team worth supporting. Get behind him like you do behind Coach Roy Williams and the basketball team. Be a true KU fan, and support all of the teams.
with seven home games next year, you will have more chances then ever to watch the team play — take advantage of the opportunities and go to the games and cheer like crazy.

Softball blanks Shockers twice
By Brandon Stinnett sports@kansan.com Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas softball team picked up two victories against the Wichita State Shockers yesterday in Wichita, 3.0 and 1.0.
Junior pitcher Sarah Workman earned her third consecutive victory in the first game, allowing just two hits and striking out 13. With the win, Workman pushed her season record to 11-10.
The Jayhawks scored two runs in the fourth inning when freshman Leah Tabb hit her third home run of the season following a lead off single by freshman Courtney Wright. Kansas added another run in the sixth when freshman Amy Hulse scored from third on a sacrifice fly to right field by freshman Megan Urquhart. Tabb went 2-3 in the game with two RBI.
THE Jayhawks gave up nine hits in the second game, but Wichita State was unable to capitalize. Three pitchers saw action for the Jayhawks. Junior Melanie DeWinter pitched four innings as the starter, giving up five hits. Junior

Christy McPhail came in to relieve DeWinter in the fifth. McPhail gave four hits in two innings. Workman pitched the seventh and recorded her first save of the season.
Kansas' only run came in the third inning. Freshman Shelly Musser led off the inning with a walk and then stole second. She advanced to third when Wright grounded out to second base and scored on a sacrifice fly by Tabb. It was Tabb's third RBI of the night.
With the win, the Jayhawks improved their overall record to 18-22 and improved their all-time record versus Wichita State to 54-8-1. Kansas's next game is Saturday at home in a single game versus Missouri. The Jayhawks' are 2-1 against the Tigers this season.

Tim Couch expected as Browns' No.1 pick
The Associated Press
CLEVELAND — The No. I pick that the Browns have spent months researching, and the one all of Cleveland has been debating, will be Kentucky quarterback Tim Couch, according to just about everyone but me.
Couch will be the first player selected in Saturday's NFL draft as long as there are no problems nego-
fitting a contract, league sources told several newspapers Wednesday, including the Akron Beacon Journal, The Morning Journal of Lorain and The Atlanta Journal-Constitution.
Brownies officials could not be reached Wednesday or yesterday.
In the past few weeks, the expansion Brownys had narrowed their list of potential No. 1 pikes to Couch, Oregon quarterback Akil Smith and
Texas running back Ricky Williams.
Couch had his second workout for Cleveland on Sunday in Lexington, Ky., a rigorous 90-minute, 115-pass session conducted by Browns coach Chris Palmer. And apparently he performed well enough to convince the team he is their franchise quarterback of the future.
The Browns reportedly contacted Couch's agent, Tom Condon, of Cleveland-based IMG over the past few days to begin preliminary contract negotiations.
If the reports are accurate and the Brown's have decided on Couch, it would mean the New Orleans Saints never increased their offer to trade all their picks in this year's draft plus some future ones for Cleveland's top pick. The Brown's were reportedly seeking the Saints' No.1 in 2000 and 2001.

Strawberry in trouble again
Yankee could go to jail for possession, solicitation
The Associated Press
TAMPA, Fla. — Darryl Strawberry's turbulent baseball career has taken another off-field jolt. He has been charged with possession of cocaine and soliciting a prostitute.
The New York Yankees outfielder offered a female undercover officer $50 for sex, Tampa police said after Wednesday night's arrest a few miles from the team's training complex.
A search turned up 0.3 grams of powder cocaine wrapped in a $20 bill inside Strawberry's wallet, police said. He was booked and released on $6,000 bond early yesterday.
The 37-year-old outfielder, an eight-time All-Star, has been in Tampa to work himself back into shape following colon cancer surgery last Oct. 3.
su gery has oct. 9.
Cocaine possession is a third-degree felony with a maximum penalty of five years in prison, Assistant State Attorney Pam Bondi said. The maximum penalty for solicitation, a misdemeanor, is 60 days in the county jail for a first offense. After that, the maximum
penalty is a year in the county jail, she said
However, those are general guidelines, Bondi said, indicating that charges for Strawberry had yet to reach the prosecutor's office.
Jason Zillo, a spokesman for the Yankees, declined to comment, saying the team would allow the legal process to run its course before speaking out.
before he peaked in the World Series after the Yankees won the World Series without him, New York City Mayor Rudolph Giuliani justified Strawberry "for the comeback he's made as a baseball player and the comeback he's making in life."
comback he He was in New York last weekend to receive his World Series ring, but was not expected to join the Yankees until he completed chemotherapy and a stint with the Triple-A team, Columbus.
Major League Baseball suspended him for 60 days in 1955 after he tested positive for cocaine. The previous year, he entered the Betty Ford Center in Rancho Mirage, Calif., and spent four weeks undergoing treatment for a substance abuse problem.
Strawberry's list of substance abuse problems is lengthy.

Chiefs search for size, speed in NFL draft
The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — A left tackle to protect injury-prone quarterback Elvis Grbac? A big, quick cornerback to try to shut down Randy Moss and Herman Moore?
The Kansas City Chiefs would seem to have a few obvious needs going into this weekend's NLAF draft, although their first-year coach insists there's plenty of talent already on hand to get the job done.
of them are easy.
"Everybody always talks about a left tackle. But Green Bay played with a guy the Raiders cut a few years ago (Bruce Wilkerson) and they went to the Super Bowl," said Chiefs coach Gunther Cunningham, a lifelong assistant who was promoted from defensive coordinator when Marty Schottenheimer resigned in January.

CHIEFS

they need a left tackle. The Chiefs made their opinion of veteran left tackle Jeff Criswell apparent when they left him unprotected in the expansion draft.
L. J. Shelton, a huge tackle from Eastern Michigan, is one possible replacement the Chiefs have its eye on. Another is Aaron Gibson from Wisconsin.
"They're both good players," said player personnel director Terry Bradway. He said that Gibson was a dominating run blocker and that Shelton really stepped up late in the season.
Carter, a three-time Pro Bowl performer, signed a free-agent contract with Denver, and shortly thereafter the Chiefs cut his backup. If they could, they would love to grab Champ Bailey, Georgia's two-way star. Another inviting target is Chris McAlister of Arizona. Others they're looking at include Antoine Winfield of Ohio State and Fernando Bryant of Alabama.
"The pool of big guys who run fast and are quick is not as large as the pool of the smaller guys who are quick and can run. Everybody is aware of mismatches with the smaller corners." Brady said. "You look at our schedule this year, we're playing Minnesota with Randy Moss and Cris Carter and Jake Reed. Then you play Detroit with Herman Moore and Johnnie Morton. You've got to have some big guys out there or they'll take advantage of you."

Classified Information and order form
*Charlotte Flint, Lawrence, N.B.* no book
may print your classified order on the form below and mail it with payment to the Kensan offices. Or you may choose to have it billed to your MasterCard or Visa account. Ads that are billed to Visa or MasterCard qualify for a refund on unused days when cancelled before their expiration date.
Classified rales are based on the number of consecutive day insertions and the size of the ad (the number of gage lines the ad occupies). To calculate the cost, multiply the total number of lines in the ad by the rate that it qualifies for. That amount is the cost per day. Then multiply the per day cost by the total number of days the ad will run.
When canceling a classified ad that was charged on MakeerCard or VISA, the advertiser's account will be credited for the unused days. Refunds on canned ads that were pre-paid by check or with cash are not available.
**DINA BOX NUMBERS.**

"Judo means 'the gentle way' which signifies that it's not an offensive sport. You use it only when you have to, and you use your opponent's strength against him."
— Todd Halstead, Judo club president
Kansas judo excels
Instructor's background gives students advantage
A small group of students gather around the instructor,casually chatting before class begins. They call him sensel, and they hang on his every word.

At exactly 4:30 p.m., he turns around, bows and walks to the mat, watching about 20 students tumble around in a circle, slapping the mat with their legs.
Since 1988, Sensei Hikaru Murata has been teaching
KU students judo, a martial art derived from ju jit su,
an aggressive sarmal defense.
In 1882, Jigoro Kano created judo, a less offensive and more scientific sport that consists of throwing, grappling, arm locks and choking.
Murata, former president of the National Judo Association, is closely tied to the sport of judo. Murata's sensei, or instructor, was a student of one of Kano's original disciples. He said he thought that his bond to Kano gave his students an advantage.
"I kind of inherited some property from my sensei, philosophy as well as techniques," Murata said as he lifted his belt, a gift from his sensei. Murata studied judo in Japan from his 80-year-old instructor who gave Murata his own black belt.

Twelve judo players went to the collegiate national competition March 27 in Denver, said Todd Halstead, Judo club president. Abdulaziz Al Mousawi, Kuwait freshman, placed fourth in the competition.

Al Mousawi said that although he was disappointed with his performance,he looked forward to future competitions
"I was sad — I wanted better," he said. "I have five more years here at KU so, hopefully, sometime I will take first place."
Halstead said that the club has 22 active members, four of whom were black belt instructors and two of whom were brown belts, the fifth rank. The rest were at the beginning level, white belt.
"This year is really a rebuilding year because we have mostly white belts," Halstead said. "Right now is a good time for someone to start up. We accept everybody."
To graduate belts, a player must attend tournaments and be deemed ready by Murata.
"it usually takes about a year to get a green belt," Hal-stead said. "But it's a pretty fair process."
it's very graceful, but there's a higher chance of injury than most other martial arts because it's pretty much non-stop fighting for five minutes," Halsiead said. "At competitions it's pretty violent-looking."
While judo is classified as a martial art, it is completely different than other arts like tae kwon do or kikido. Judo is a defensive art that relies on the attacker's advances rather than an offensive art instigated by the player himself.
In national judo competitions, the standard sparring match is five minutes long; there are two judges and one referee. The two opponents approach one another
"Judo means 'the gentle way' which signifies that it's not an offensive sport. You use it only when you have to, and you use your opponent's strength against him." Halstead said.
However, judo can also be dangerous.

Xavier Stevens, Garnett sophomore and judo club member, said his favorite thing about the sport was the competition.
"Ilike sparring," Stevens said. "It gets my endurance and it's an adrenaline rush."
However, fighting is not the only thing the judo club offers.
Halstead said that it builds self-esteem, helps people to learn composure in making important decisions and serves as an outlet for stress.
"It gives me an outlet to release stress and it does give me more responsibility in my life having to train three times a week." Halstead said. "It clears my mind."
The club also provides a friendly environment. Stevens said that he considered everyone in the club to be a friend.
Murata said that judo instruction in Japan was different than at the university level in the United States.
"The emphasis on the college age is a little bit different. It's more on competition," Murata said. "But in Japan, it's more education. People put stress on discipline and social structures."
Murata said that was because there was not enough time to give full instruction. However, he said he gave his students the most inclusive instruction possible in the three hours a week that the club meets.
So far, the instruction seems to be paying off.

THE STUDENT NEWSPAPER OF THE UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS
Tutu preaches tolerance to diverse KU audience
(USPS 650-640)
Archbishop thanks students for anti-arpartheid help
By Kristi Reimer
kreimer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Archbishop Desmond Tutu converted Allen Fieldhouse into a church last night, exhorting audience members to recognize God's role in their diversity and oppose injustice wherever they encountered it.
"There is an African idiom that says, 'A person is a person through other persons.' "Tutu told a crowd of about 4,000 people. "I need you in order to be me. We are caught up in this incredible network of humanity. Whether we like it or not, we are family."
Tutu, archbishop emeritus of Cape Town, South Africa, and winner of the 1984 Nobel Peace Prize, labored for years to bring the government-enforced racial segregation of apartheid to an end. He said that because human beings are created in God's image, each person possesses an intrinsic worth that binds them together across the globe.
"With every single fiber of our being, we should oppose injustice afflicted on anyone, anywhere," he said.
Tutu said the long lines of Black South Africans standing in line to vote for the first time in their lives in 1994 were a tribute to the nation's ability to finally recognize and celebrate its diversity.
He said the end of apartheid would not have been possible without support of the international community in the 1980s, and he thanked college students for their part.
the marker behind them.
"At a time when students should have been worrying about their exams and grades, they were in campaigns and rallies on our behalf."
Tutu said. "Against the wishes of the White House of the time, Congress passed anti-apartheid legislation. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Our victory is your victory."
He said using a physical attribute such as skin color as a qualification for admission to a university was bizarre.
"It would be like saying the primary qualification for entering the university is a large nose," he said. "If you wish to enter this university and you are afflicted with a small nose, you must apply to the Minister of Small-Nose Affairs."
Tutu also urged listeners to reject simplistic answers to the complex questions of life, which fostered fear of difference and, eventually, dangerous intolerance.
"Fear of diversity gave us the Holocaust and the many instances of genocide, where the Tutsi gets rid of the Hutu," Tutu said, referring to civil war in Rwanda.
He said the United States also had much to fear from intolerance.
"It is dangerous because that is what
makes it possible for a man to be dragged behind a pickup to die a gruesome death," he said. "I hope that you would have zero tolerance for intolerance."
Jutu said many simplistic, intolerant views were espoused by people who used the Bible as their basis for their beliefs about euthanasia, abortion and sexual orientation.
"The Bible says some extraordinary things that no right-thinking person would accent," he said.
He said college students, who were being taught to be supple, not rigid, would be able to make a difference.
"I say to you young people, dream — dream of a world where place can happen," he said. "Dream of a world where there is compassion and joy, that says we want to be an inclusive community. ... We belong in God's family."
community. We beamed the conflict in the Balkans in a press conference before his presentation in the fieldhouse. He said the region might benefit from a system similar to South Africa's Truth and Reconciliation Commission, which grants amnesty to people who confess having committed atrocities under apartheid.
"One weeps at the spectacle of so much suffering," Tutu said. "They might want to look at the possibility of people sitting down and telling their stories. If they are going to share

As grade averages at KU rise, some question if the grading standard has fallen
story by kristi reimer
It's not that Cameron Popp doesn't want to get A's. Popp, Hutchinson junior and honors student, has worked for his 3.7 grade-point average and wants to go to a prestigious law school.

But he has a problem with some high grades. In some classes, he says, other students who have put in far less effort received the same, or almost the same, grade as he. That makes his A count for less by comparison.
"I've had classes where it's obvious in discussions and participation that people aren't picking it up or aren't interested," Popp said. "But in those same classes, you'll get the

complaint.
In the last 20 years, the average GPA at the University of Kansas has crept up 7 percent, from a 2.68 in 1978 to a 2.87 in 1998. GPAs in the schools of Education, Pharmacy and Business have risen as much as 15 percent.
breakdown on a test, and two-thirds get A's." Popp believeth high-achieving college students have a lot to lose from lenient grading standards.
Some critics say an A doesn't mean what it
used to—exceptional work—and that a B has taken the place of a C to indicate average performance. KU officials say rising GPAs reflect students' greater competence and instructors' improved teaching methods.
As grades inch up across the country, "grade inflation" — the tendency to reward mediocre work with increasingly higher grades — has become part of a national conversation about academic standards.
Grade inflation worries some experts, but most teachers and administrators at KU aren't concerned at all.

Housing committee works to improve off-campus living

Kansan staff writer
One of the goals Student Senate has been working toward for the past few years has been the improvement of housing conditions for students both on and off campus.
One of the Senate groups trying to improve conditions for off-campus students is the Landlord-Tenant Subcommittee, part of the Student Rights Committee.
The group was formed in August of last year and has been working to form a Web site that will list available rental properties in Lawrence. The site will

"Our main goal is to make the off-campus experience more pleasurable and more relivable," Smith said.
Matt Dunbar, holdover senator, said most off-campus students had at least one story about being ripped off by a landlord. He said students who moved off campus needed references such as these to inform them about landlords students have had good and bad experiences with.
Smith said the subcommittee could refer students to Legal Services for Students if they are having problems with their landlord or roommates and post a lease guide to let other students know about potential traps in their

Rep. Dennis Moore, D-Kan., will spare an hour today to discuss his work on Capitol Hill with KU students before he catches an evening flight back to Washington, D.C.

All students are invited to attend the meeting,
where Moore will give a brief opening speech and then field students' questions
about political issues such as campaign finance reform, Social Security and his perspective as a freshman congressman.
This will be the first time Moore has visited the University of Kansas since he was elected last fall, said Phil Stephenson, Young Democrats president.
"We wanted a chance for students to get to know who's representing them in D.C. now," Stephenson said. "He's coming in on the tail end of the impeachment proceedings."
Moore is the first Democrat to represent Kansas' Third Congressional District in almost 40 years.

Juvenile justice funding pending in Legislature
STATE
TOPEKA — The one thing the Legislature must do each year to keep Kansas government operating is approve a new state budget.
This year, the one thing legislators
will have to discuss before they finish work on the next state budget is juvenile justice.
Not only did senators and House members adjourn their regular session without deciding how much to spend on programs for young criminals, they didn't approve a penny of spending for the Juvenile Justice Authority for the state's 2000 fiscal year, which begins July 1.
Their decision to zero out the authority's budget will force them to focus on the juvenile corrections system during their wrap-up session, which is scheduled to begin April 28.
The Legislature approved nearly $9 billion in appropriations for fiscal year 2000 before adjourning the regular session on April 10. During its wrap-up session, it will consider the last budget bill of the year, the Omnibus Appropriations Act.
The omnibus measure gives legislators a chance to correct mistakes in previous budget legislation, add money for programs they've recently created or expanded, or finance pet projects.
The House Appropriations Committee and the Senate Ways and Means Committee are to begin meeting Thursday to start work on each of the group's own versions of the omnibus bill.

Murder trial to resume for 'whites only' pair
LITTLE ROCK, Ark. — Two men accused of committing a murderous crime spree as part of a plot to set up a whites-only nation face a tough road as their defense opens this week.
Both their mothers testified for the prosecution. One placed her son near the scene of three 1996 murders. The other told the African-American jury that her son took part in the killings
"God won't let me live with it anymore," Goria Kehoe told her son, Chevie Kehoe, in front of jurors.
Prosecutors are seeking the death penalty for Khoe, 26, of Colville, Wash., and Danny Lee, 26, of Yukon, Okla., who are accused of racketeering, conspiracy and murder.
The trial resumes tomorrow skipping today, a key anniversary in white supremacy circles. April 19 marks the start of the American Revolution at the Battle of Lexington in 1775, the fiery federal raid on the Branch Davidians at Waco, Texas, in 1993, and the bombing of the Oklahoma City federal building in 1995.
The government alleges the two white men were out to overthrow the federal government and set up a new nation, based in the Pacific Northwest, that would bar people of African, Asian, Hispanic or Jewish descent.
Court officials said the day off was only to give defense lawyers time to study the vast amount of prosecution evidence.
Kehoe and Lee are accused of the
January 1996 robbery and killings of gun dealer William Mueller, his wife, Nancy, and her 8-year-old daughter, Sarah Powell, in the northwest Arkansas town of Tilly.
Indian leader returning to political spotlight
WORLD
NEW DELHI, India — For years, Sonia Gandhi disdained politics and hid from public view.
When her mother-in-law, Indira Gandhi, was assassinated in 1984, she pleaded with her husband, Rajiv, against taking his mother's place as prime minister. When her husband was killed in 1991, she went into seclusion, shunning the politicians who begged her to lead them.
Yet she reluctantly emerged from the shadows to accept the inheritance of India's foremost political dynasty a year ago, when the venerable Congress Party reached its lowest point. Now, the Italian-born widow may be India's next prime minister.
On Saturday, Prime Minister Al Bihari Vajpayee lost a vote of confidence in parliament by one vote and resigned. His fall was precipitated by the defection of his biggest coalition ally.
Although Sonia Gandhi did not initiate the government's downfall, she engineered the final blow. Indian newspapers said her personal lobbying on the telephone Friday night turned key votes against the government.
German Reichstag to open as new symbol for Berlin
BERLIN — What hasn't happened to the Reichstag?
It was burned during the Nazi era, bombed by the Allies, and stormed by Red Army soldiers who scrawled obscenities on the walls and planted the red Soviet flag on the roof, marking the defeat of Hitler.
East Germany built the Berlin Wall just a few steps from its back door. And after the Wall came down, the artist Christo wrapped the Reichstag in a million square feet of silvery fabric, a celebration of the end of communism.
After a $330 million renovation, the Reichstag debuts Monday as the reclaimed seat of German lawmakers, a defining episode in the government's return this year to the prewar capital of Berlin.
More than any other building in the city, the Reichstag (pronounced RIKES-tahg) has symbolized every phase of Germany's turbulent, terrible history during the past 80 years. So it only seems fitting that in his restoration, celebrated British architect Sir Norman Foster has made the Reichstag into a new symbol for the new capital, one of a Germany mindful of the past but moving confidently into the future.
A KU student was arrested on suspicion of operating a vehicle under the influence of alcohol at 2:12 a.m. Friday in the 2300 block of West 15th Street, the KU Public Safety Office said.

Committee's goal to better relationships with landlords
Continued from page 1A
Department of Student Housing is a self- sufficient unit which typically is well-run, said Ben Burton, All-University Residence Hall senator.
housing has done a good job, but the question is, does Senate have any power in the University, and I think the answer is no, although it would be nice," Burton said. "In terms of actually being responsive to student needs and operating in the black and being self-sufficient, housing is one of the most capable groups on campus."
One issue which affects both on and off-campus students is transportation. The referendum in last week's Senate elections on city-wide transportation and past projects such as KU on Wheels and city bike lanes show Senate's commitment to student transportation issues.
"Regardless of what seat you are in, I think this is something a lot of people are interested in," Dunbar said. "One of the things Senate will be working on is to provide the same level of service to students or to expand it to provide more utility to people who are not just trying to get around campus."
Dunbar said he hoped senators would put politics aside and make transportation issues a priority in the future.

YOU leaders look ahead to work with Delta Force

The student body president-elect and vice president-elect who headed the YOU coalition, which stole a majority of Student Senate seats last week, said they hoped to drop partisan lines and work with members of Delta Force next year.
After a celebratory weekend, Korb Maxwell and Dede Seibel said they were ready to get to work this week in preparation for taking office during a joint Senate session April 28, where old and new senators come together.
This week, Maxwell and Seibel will choose Senate executive staff members for next year and will

and the three referendums passed by the student body last week.
Maxwell said he would begin discussing the construction of a new $16 million campus recreation center — a proposal over overwhelmingly passed by students — with Kevin Yoder, student body president and recreation task force chairman. He predicted that one of the toughest aspects of his new position would be his responsibility for both Senate's failures and accomplishments.
"One of the hardest things about being student body president is that you're on your own," Maxwell said. "There's no one to tell you what to do."
He said he wanted to implement a student judicial board to hear complaints from Senate and student organizations. Also, he said he planned to form presidential task forces next fall to work on a reformed course-retake policy.

The task forces would require input from members of both coalitions, Maxwell said. He and Seibel said they would seek collaboration with Seth Hoffman and Mary Liu, Delta Force candidates who lost their bids for student body president and vice president.
"I hope to work with both of them as much as possible." Maxwell said. "I'm going to be as open to work with Seth as he is to me. I'll try my best to reach out to both of them."
Seibel said she hoped to implement some structural changes within Senate, such as allowing non-senators who are standing committee members to sponsor legislation. Also, she said she wanted senators to visit student organizations regularly, conduct a majority of meetings outside of the Kansas Union, serve office hours in the Union lobby and hold town hall meetings at Wescoe Beach.
Hoffman said he was not yet sure if he would be directly involved with Senate again next year. He said he was confident that other members of Delta Force who were elected would work on issues important to him and the coalition.
"I'm taking a step back right now," he said. "Part of me wants to get back to work, and the other wants to walk away. But it'll probably be the first."
Hoffman said that if he did not return to Senate he would join other campus organizations and continue to work on securing a fall break and implementing a new campus bulletin board policy through his position as chairman of the University Senate Executive Committee.
YOU who lost their bids for Senate seats still plan to be involved with Senate in other capacities.

Old and new senators alike look forward to the next steps involved with the passage of the student body referrums.
Nicole Skalla, KU on Wheels transportation coordinator and College of Liberal Arts and Sciences senator-elect, said she and other members of the transportation task force would begin discussing a joint citywide public transportation system between the City of Lawrence and the University with administrators and city officials.
Deidre Backs, off-campus senator and member of Students Against Hate, said she and other members would discuss a zero-tolerance policy for hate crimes and sexual assault with administrators and senators.
All campaign-related material must be removed from campus by 5 today. Jennifer Watkins, elections commissioner, will certify election results tomorrow.

Necessary revisions to calendar include extra two weeks of break
Chancellor Robert Hemenway's recent commitment to making a decision on the revised calendar proposal by May 1 is a good one. Rather than deciding while most students are away from Lawrence this summer, this commitment ensures that whatever decision is made will inevitably face the litmus test of student opinion.
Although this expediency is applauded, there is no question that the chancellor must not only decide, but decide correctly in this matter. He must approve the revised calendar.
The chancellor has made it clear that he is concerned with the possibility that the new proposal might lead to an "early departure syndrome." This may be a definite concern, but it is one without merit. If, in fact, there
During proposed winter break, students could study work abroad or find jobs.
will be this "early departure syndrome," why do we have a spring break? It appears that this issue was decided long ago by those who saw a need for any of the current breaks that we have.
Simply, if there is a need for a break, there is probably no need to fear an "early departure syndrome."
Further, the two weeks added to the winter break would be a vast improvement on the current break and would give students a myriad of new opportunities.
Rather than accomplishing little during an already long month, students could now possibly take classes, study abroad or devote more time to work opportunities.
Now, we have a break which gives students just enough time to become bored, but not enough time to do anything constructive. With a six-week break, students would have choices previously unavailable to them.
Perhaps there are legitimate concerns regarding the calendar proposal. If this is so, it is doubtful that they compare to the obvious advantages of the revisions. Chancellor Hemenw owed it to the students of this University to approve the calendar revisions to better the stated goals of giving students a quality education.

Students' efforts earn pats on back
Congratulations are long overdue for a group of University of Kansas students who recently won nationally prestigious scholarships.
Lori Mah, Topeka senior in civil engineering, won one of the 4,200 J. William Fulbright grants awarded annually. She will spend nine months in Gothenburg, Sweden at Chalmers University studying reinforced concrete. Congress created the Fulbright program in 1946 to promote educational and cultural exchanges among nations.
Marvin Glen Decker, Pittsburg senior in mathematics, and Stuartt Allan Corder, Olathe senior in mathematics, physics and astronomy, both won Barry M. Goldwater scholarships, which honors excellence in science,
the winners of national scholarships stand as the University's top representatives.
engineering and mathematics. The Goldwater scholarship provides up to $7,500. Only 304 are awarded each year.
Larissa Janeen Lee. Derby senior in chemical engineering, won one of 11 Winston Churchill scholarships. Churchill scholars receive $27,000 for a year of graduate study in engineering, math or science at Churchill College in Cambridge, Great Britain. Lee previously had won a Goldwater scholarship in 1998.
social welfare, won one of 75 Harry S. Truman scholarships. She will receive up to $30,000 to complete her undergraduate and graduate degrees. Truman scholarships are awarded to honor students planning careers in public service.
At the University, as at many educational institutions, students and their educational achievements are too often overlooked. Mah, Decker, Corder, Lee and Carden undoubtedly deserve the recognition for which they have strived. They are truly our finest representatives.
Melinda Carden. Lenexa senior in
The prestigious awards these students have received are testaments to their intense years of work and study. May they use their talents to maximize their opportunities to succeed.

charges of aggravated indecent liberties with a child and rape.
Out of respect to his family, I'm not going to use the man's name but will simply refer to him in generic terms. Let me start by getting the man's actions out on the table.

Punishment too lenient for convicted offender
A 56-year-old local man was recently sentenced to two years in jail (with credit for one year already served) and two years of probation for being convicted on
PETER MCCARTNEY

Funk
opinion@kansan.com
One girl testified that on two separate occasions, the man touched her hips and breast. A second girl testified that the man touched her breast after he had offered to give her a back
run. A third girl testified that the man laid on top of her for about 15 minutes. These acts were the basis of the indecent liberties charges. The second girl also testified that the man put his finger inside her twice. These acts were the basis of the rape charges.
The man ran a horse arena in the area, and the girls were Girl Scouts camping out on the man's property. The man claimed that he was sleepwalking when the incidents occurred.
The man's attorney is upset that his client isn't being released after serving one year. The attorney apparently had reached an agreement with prosecutors that the two one-year sentences would be served concurrently. Apparently the judge didn't like the plea bargain and ordered the man to serve another year in jail. If the man were to violate his two-year probation after being released, he would return to jail for a third year.
Apparently, one of the judge's reasons for keeping the man in jail for the additional year was to wait on a psychological evaluation.
The law is simply wrong here. It's much too lenient. This guy at least should be locked up, until we can be relatively sure that he won't go out and do this type of thing again. He never should be allowed to touch another child, never be allowed to taint another innocent future.
I't save him the time. This guy has problems. If he were severely retarded and couldn't distinguish between right and wrong, it would be another story. There has been nothing mentioned about mental problems, and short of that, there is no excuse for his actions. He put
It wasn't the judge's fault. He has rules that he must follow. Those rules are created by the legislature. The legislators are elected by and represent us. Ultimately, the responsibility for fashioning appropriate laws and punishments rests on our shoulders.
They might grow up being generally distrustful of men. They could have problems with self-esteem. They may be unable to carry on normal romantic relationships. They definitely could have problems dealing with sex. And the guy responsible only got two years.
his own sexual gratification above the health and well-being of several girls. He then had the audacity to blame it on sleepwalking, though I suppose you have to give him points for creativity.
I don't hold anyone's sexual preferences against them. I don't think we can control what turns us on. Freud had a lot to say in this area, and it's all pretty disturbing. Certainly we can control our actions, though. When the man touched those girls, he crossed the line. The physical damage to the girls was probably very minimal and nothing that won't heal with time. The psychological damage done to those girls, though, could be very serious, and it could stay with them for the rest of their lives.
Worst of all, this wasn't an isolated incident. Not long ago, a local man was arrested as part of a global child pornography ring. If you talk to anyone who works with social services, you'll find that these horrible things happen on a disturbingly regular basis. We need to hold people accountable, not for their tastes or inclinations, but for their actions. We should urge our legislators to take a Draconian approach with those who choose to abuse children. The children can't protect themselves. They are depending on us. We can't let them down.

Etiquette lessons needed for rude, moronic drivers
I take it as a relatively simple understanding that most of the students attending this fine university do not actually live in Lawrence. Sure, most of you have gotten an
apartment somewhere, or perhaps you've cozied up in one of the dorms for the semester, but you only reside here. This isn't the place you call home.
No, Mom and Dad, or Uncle Bob, maybe your favorite teddy bear or the only dog you've ever really loved — they all exist in a world apart from Lawrence.

Sometimes, this separation warrants a deep need to visit the people we love and re-establish cherished.
Whatever the reason, you most likely will have to travel on highways to make this trek back to the homeland. Since I also make this routine trip, I would like to take a few moments and provide a quick refresher course on the finer points of highway etiquette.
Slower traffic to the right.
kindred relationships. Or maybe there's just a huge party going on, and you want to impress all of your old high school chums with the hot freshman that you've connived into dating you.
OK, this is not up for debate. I don't know what it is that compels people to drive 55 in the left lane, while a line of angry drivers tails them within inches of the most massive pile up in recent decades, but stop it! Should you take a moment to glance in the rearview mirror and happen to see that somebody is approaching you rather rapidly, simply move over to the right lane, and a barrage of verbal attacks against you, your mother, and anybody who may have ever met you can be easily avoided.
Speed Limits.
Speed limits
I think it is the accepted philosophy of business travelers and highway patrolmen everywhere that the speed limit is to be exceeded by at least five miles an hour. Trust me, we'll all be a lot happier if you just conform to this one little thing. I know it's fun to push those pansy
tendencies by "going at a safe speed," but do it on some dirt road that I'm not driving on, OK?
Passing.
Remember, it's only called speeding if they catch you. Otherwise, you're just making good time.
I don't mind being passed. I really don't.
Years of failed relationships have erased any sense of manhood I once possessed. All I ask is that you maintain your driving speed after passing me. I do not enjoy playing leapfrog at 80 miles an hour when I could be doing something useful such as reading my map.
I'm sure that it has happened somewhere, but the chances of actually meeting the man or woman of your dreams while cruising along at breakneck speeds is rather unlikely and, in my opinion, should be left up to fate anyway. Thus, any cosmetic adjustments such as make-up or hair that you feel need to be attended to can wait.
Fliving objects.
Because of the advance of capitalism in this country, I would estimate that there is at least one gas station with trash receptacles for every 10 miles of highway, so that paper cup from Hardees can remain inside the car until you reach the next one.
Occasionally, while traveling, you may find yourself driving through a busy section of a large city. For some reason, a sudden plethora of lanes all going in the same direction confuses many drivers and compels them to swerve and sway from lane to lane without employing the proper ritualistic practices.
I'm talking about turn signals here, people!
Changing lanes.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
Although my particular religious beliefs do not need to be voiced here, I would like to state that I am a strong believer in the turn signal and its benefits for all of mankind. I am not clairvoyant, and when people decide to move to a lane that they think will get them to their destination that much faster, I would like some kind of fair warning, so as not to become acquainted with them in the first name, last name, insurance policy number kind of way.

Feedback
Refund article used incorrect context
I was part of Thursday's Kansan article about recipients of scholarship refunds. Although the quotes in the article were accurate to some degree, the overall tone of the article failed to fully explain my choice to attend the University
of Kansas.
I, of course, cannot speak for my fellow scholars, but I came to the University for more than money. The University of Kansas is near my home in Topeka and has a good political science department and a top quality honors program. All these things factor into any college student's choice about where to go to school, and scholarship recipients are no differ ent.
Reporting that my decision to attend the University of Kansas was primarily a fiscal one is not only an offense to me, but it also greatly underestimates the benefits the University has to offer.

A conference Saturday at the Kansas Union brought together professionals from across the Midwest to discuss strategies for recruiting, matriculating and graduating students of color, said Robert Page, assistant director of admissions and conference chairman.
"Even though the University of Kansas has a high retention rate, it's still a concern across the nation," Page said. "We do feel like we have to address the issue."
In an early morning address to about 50 people, Chancellor Robert Hemenway reaffirmed his commitment to Affirmative Action policies.
Hemenway also said dialogues on recruitment and retention of minority students were especially important given the political and legal challenges to Affirmative Action elsewhere.
During the conference, several of the University's methods for retaining students of color were shared with conference participants.
"In a big research institution, it's easy to get lost," said John Augusto, assistant dean of the graduate school.
The Freshman-Sophomore Advising Center, Undergraduate Admissions, the Dean of Students, the Graduate School and the Multicultural Resource Center were
important in helping students of color and incoming freshmen become orientated, Augusta said.
Augusto, who directs the Graduate Minority Recruitment Program, said he was happy with the funding he had received the last few years from the chancellor.
in one session of the conference, the University's Supportive Educational Services was touted as a success story in retention.
Maritza Machado-Williams, director of SES, said her program, financed primarily by a federal grant, provided free tutoring, counseling and mentoring to 250 students a year, about 40 percent of whom were students of color.
To quality for aid from the program, students must be low-income, first-generation college students or possess a disability. Studies conducted by SES found that 100 percent of first-generation freshmen participating with the program returned their sophomore year. Only 59 percent of comparable set of students who did not participate with SES returned.
The conference was sponsored by the offices of the chancellor and the provost, Admissions and Scholarships, Minority Affairs, Student Life, the Coca-Cola Company and other schools within the University.

Pride Week ends with march
Bv Clay McCuistion
By Clay McCusition Special to the Kansan
"We're here; we're queer; we're fabulous, used to get us," chanted marchers in the sixth-annual Lawrence Pride March yesterday.
Carrying pastel-colored balloons, signs and a U.S. flag, about 60 KU students and area residents demonstrated in favor of equal rights for the gay and lesbian community. The march down Massachusetts Street, followed by a rally and potluck lunch at the South Park Gazebo, was the final event of pride week.
As the marchers worked their way down the street, some onlookers cheered.
Others did not. About 15 members of Topeka's Westboro Baptist Church held neon-colored signs that read "Fag Death March" and "Sin and Shame, Not Pride," among other slogans. The Topeka church is led by Rev. Fred Phelps, Sr., nationally known for his anti-homosexual sexue.
Vincent Worthington, East Lansing. Mich., graduate student, wore a red sign on his chest that read "God
Hates Bigotry" in black letters.
Hates Bigotry" in black letters. Worthington said he did not agree with the Westboro members.
"It just doesn't work that way, like the group across the street," he said. Chris Hampton, Lawrence editor for the Liberty Press, a Wichita-based monthly magazine for the LBGT community, said she was pleased to be among the 60-some marchers.
"I've been here every year for the last six years," Hampton said. "I think it's really important for those of us who feel comfortable being visible at these events to do so. I think we help more people feel comfortable being out and being visible in Lawrence," she said.
Bonnie Cuevas, president of the Topeka-Lawrence chapter of Parents, Families and Friends of Lesbians and Gays, carried a banner promoting her organization in the march and spoke at the rally.
"I'm here to support what these young people are doing and how they're speaking out," Cuevas said after the rally. "I draw a lot of strength from them."
Jack Shay, co-coordinator of pride week, said that, depending on the
weather, the march usually attracted 50 to 200 people.
"This is one of Lawrence's favorite things," Shay said. "We usually get a pretty good turnout.
"Throughout pride week we can focus on smaller parts of the community, and at the end of the week all the smaller communities can come together and form one big one," Shay said.
Stacey Greenbaum, Overland Park freshman, said she marched to support her friends. She carried a small sign that read "Simply Equal."
"It's great people can come together and be accepting of each other," Greenbaum said. "It's not a gay thing. It's not a lesbian thing. It's a human thing."

Social Work Day honors achievement
By Allan Davis
Special to the Kansan
Six students, two faculty members and one alumnus received awards Friday during the 1999 Social Work Day sponsored by the School of Social Welfare and the KU Social Work Alumni Society.
The students all received Margo Awards for outstanding student achievement in field practicum, the applied practice of social work education, during the 1988-1999 school year. The Margo Awards were established in 1986 to honor Margaret Schutz Gordon, professor emerita, who directed KU's social welfare practicum program from 1970 until her retirement in 1983.
Belinda Viertheral, Shawnee senior, won the Margo Award for an undergraduate practicum.
Graduate students Chad Sublet, Lawrence, and Kelly Fetrow, Baldwin City, received the Master of Social Work Foundation Practice award.
Brandi Schneider, Lawrence graduate student, won the Social Administration award.
Linda O'Neal, Hutchinson graduate student, and Rosalyn Wilson, Kansas City, Mo., graduate student, received the Clinical Practicum award.
Sadye Logan, associate professor of social welfare, and Vettra Ford, instructor in the school of social welfare, received the 1999 Outstanding KU Social Work Faculty award.
William Vieux, experiential therapist at Lawrence's Cedar Branch Recovery Systems, PA, received the 1999 Outstanding KU Social Work Alumnus award.
Claudia Black, a lecturer and author, delivered the keynote address, "Addictive Disorders: The Family Legacy."
Black is a clinical consultant for addictive disorders in Wickenburg, Ariz.
Alvin Brooks, president of the Ad Hoc Group Against Crime, gave the afternoon address, "America's Diversity: How do we take Advantage of it?" Brooks is a Kansas City, Mo., councilman and a commentator for two Kansas City radio stations. KPRS-FM and its sister station, KPRT-AM.
Brooks drew a big laugh from the audience when he commented about demonstrators he saw during a KU Queers and Allies Pride Week event.
Participants could attend their choice of seven morning and seven afternoon workshops.
This year's Social Work Day theme was "Open Minds Finding Solutions." About 450 people registered for the event, which was held at the Kansas Union.
"One sign said, 'No gays in heaven,' he said. "I wanted to get out of the car and say, 'how do you know?'
Debbie McCord, events coordinator for the School of Social Welfare, organized the day's events.
"It's a nice way for our alumni to reconnect with each other each year and to hear speakers, receive more information about the field, and see faculty members that they might like to see again," she said.

YOU denies pro-greek bias
By Nadia Mustafa
nmustafa@kanson.com
Kanson staff writer
Students tell stories of coercion, pressure
Although many members of the greek community said that they voted for the YOU coalition during Student Senate elections last week, pressure to support the "greek" coalition seemed to be more apparent among sorority members than their counterparts in fraternities.
Korb Maxwell and Dede Seibel, student body president and vice president-elects, said YOU was not focused on the greek community. They consistently denied it was a "greek" coalition and pointed to many of its members who were representatives of various campus organizations.
The YOU coalition is not officially greek, but many sorority and fraternity members identified YOU as the "their" coalition—allegedly evidenced by the many Greek houses that sported YOU campaign banners, many of the coalition's supporters who were fraternity or sorority residents and the small number of Greek residents who ran with Delta Force.
Whether justified or not, many senators said the coining of coalitions as "greek" or "anti-greek" was a tradition that spans many years within Senate and the student body at the University of Kansas. Many students who are unaware of campaign issues use the stereotypes as their gauges on election day, and even many students who are knowledgeable about Senate and the issues feel pressured to vote for a certain coalition.
This year, there was some controversy about Delta Force's allegedly "anti-greek" stance. Members of Delta Force denied this claim just as Maxwell and Seibel denied charges that YOU was the traditional "greek" coalition. Campaign season revealed that it was not a one-way street — allegations flew both ways, and often it was found to not be the fault of coalition members, but of other student supporters.
Nonetheless, incidents within the greek community revealed some sorority residents' disapproval that some of their sorority sisters were Delta Force supporters.
Meg Peterson, Lenexa freshman and Kappa Delta member, is a Corbin Hall resident. She said that during a visit to the hall, Kappa Kappa Gamma residents forced her and her floor mates to remove Delta Force signs from their windows and urged them to support YOU.
"All the girls were really, really upset and didn't know what to do," Peterson said.
No one from Kappa Kappa Gamma could be reached for comment.
In addition, Peterson said she received a letter from YOU about Kappa Delta members who were candidates.
"They were trying to persuade me just because there were girls in the house that were running and a big sign that said 'YOU' in front of the house," Peterson said. "It's that kind of pressure."
Katie Regan, Shawnee freshman and Chi Omega member, said it was assumed that members of the greek community would vote for YOU. She said she felt uncomfortable when a sorority member and YOU coalition member confronted her about the Delta Force material on her floor at Corbin.
"I was a little bit torn because on my floor we had an RA on Delta Force and four or five girls running for YOU," Regan said. "I was torn about who to listen to or who to choose."
Katie Harpstrite, Andover freshman and Alpha Gamma Delta member, lost her bid as Delta Force candidate for Nunemaker senator. She said there was a lot of pressure to vote for YOU within the Greek community through letters, posters and verbal disapproval.
"In Corbin, they freak out if you don't vote for YOU," Harpstrite said. "It's a big anti-greek-greek war out there, and they don't really get into the issues. If you're around all those people who tell you to vote for YOU, you do."
She said members of the greek community were surprised that she was friends with Delta Force members. One of the effects of the pressure to vote "greek" during elections, she said, was that Delta Force did not win any Nunemaker seats.
"They didn't win because they all campaigned harder," Harpstrite said. "Nunemaker was a straight ticket because of the greek influence. It was pretty evident to everyone in the Greek system that YOU was the coalition of choice."
rony Bichelmeyer, DeSoto junior and Delta Tau Delt member, said he did not feel pressured to vote for the "greek" coalition. He said he based his decision on what he learned about the coalitions' campaign issues on campus.
But, he said he had accepted a ride to campus in a van from individuals who might have been YOU supporters in turn for promising to vote.

Each spring, regions of the world claim a table's worth of space on the front lawn of Stauffer-Flint Hall.
It's not an invasion, though.
International students tending tables will share food, incense, books and other pieces of their culture with the KU community.
This year the World Expo will happen from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Friday.
It's meant to raise awareness on campus about just how culturally diverse KU really is," said Vladimir Sinkov, president of the International Students Association, which is sponsoring the event.
The World Expo has been coupled with the Annual Festival of Nations, which is at 7:30 p.m.
International Awareness
Week
Friday at Woodruff Auditorium in the Kansas Union. The festival will include songs from Russia, dances from India and
Brazil and much more, Sinkov said.
Diana Victor, social chair of the Brazil-Portugal Organization, said her group had been practicing a typical Brazilian dance from the countryside.
"It's just one more opportunity to show a little bit of our culture to KU and the other international communities, Victor said. This year, the Expo and the Festival have been expanded into a whole week of events,
beginning with a treasure hunt and pizza party that begin at 6 p.m. today in front of the Kansas Union.
Tomorrow will be foreign film night, with a showing of "El Flor de Mi Secreto," by Pedro Almodovar, at 7 p.m. at Woodruff Auditorium in the Union. "Cafe au Lait" by Mathieu Kassovitz will be shown at 9 p.m.
On Wednesday there will be an international fashion show, beginning at noon in front of the Union.
Thursday will have an internationally inspired pot-luck dinner at 7 p.m. at the
Ecumenical Christian Ministries building, 1204 Oread Ave.
After the Festival of Nations on Friday, ISS will host an international dance party at the Holiday Inn Holidome, 200 MacDonald Dr.
Cusine from France, Italy, India, South America, Jamaica and Scandinavia also will be served on different days of the week at the Union Square on the fourth floor of the Kansas Union.

Students to celebrate planet
Organizations plan week-long activities
By Jennifer Roush
jroush@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Various student organizations hope to paint the University of Kansas green this week in celebration of Earth Day, which officially is observed Thursday.
Students will be able to attend events such as poetry readings or an Earth Day open house, which are sponsored by KU Environs, Student Union Activities, the Kansas Union, the Environmental Studies Student Association and an environmental group made up of residence hall students.
Katrina Warren, marketing and promotions coordinator for the Kansas and Burge Unions, said this would be the sixth year the Union had an open house to honor Earth Day.
"It's a place for student and community groups to celebrate Earth Day and give out information." Warren said.
Thursday's free event at the
Union, which also is sponsored by SUA, will include flower planting outside the Union, Tunes at Noon, Earth Day snacks and a table where students can make their own hemp necklaces.
SUA also will sponsor free flower pot painting at Wescoe Terrace and will distribute flower seeds for students to plant in the pots.
Warren said the only activity that would cost money was the wax hand-making station. Students can make impressions of their hands in colored wa, and then take the impressions home for $2 each. The proceeds will go to reimburse the group that is running the station.
Other free events taking place this week are the KU Environors Earth Day celebration and the Association of University Residence Halls Environmental Issues Council events.
James Katzenneyer, Ellsworth Hall environmental chair, said the organization would sponsor several activities throughout the week, including an information fair, a poetry slam and an energy conservation contest.
Students who are interested in participating in these events
should contact Josh Burdette, president of AURH, at 864-6373.
Earth Week will end on Saturday and Sunday with the KU Environments Earth Day celebration and the ESSA Earth Day bike ride.
The Environs event will take place from noon to 7 p.m. at the South Park Gazebo, 13th and Massachusetts Streets, said Matt Dunbar, KU Environs president.
Dunbar said the celebration would include speakers and musicians. The headline speaker will be Adam Werbach, former Sierra Club president. Werbach was the youngest president in the group's 104-year history. There also will be information tables, family activities and food and art vendors.
Jill Richardson, ESSA member, said this was the second year the bike ride had taken place. The $15 per person registration fee, which buys participants a T-shirt and lunch, will help to set up a scholarship for environmental studies majors.
Students can register for the 25-mile or 40-mile bike rides tomorrow through Thursday at Wesco Beach.

Experience drives KU senior to volunteer

Kansan staff writer
Bv Jamie Knodel
Michelle Crouse has mastered the skills it takes to drive Van Go Mobile Arts' 21-foot checkered cab limousine and shuttle kids to and from art projects around Lawrence.
"Getting used to the car wasn't too bad," said Crouse, Overland Park senior. "It is just getting used to having 11 kids in the back seat."
"I found myself saying such mom things, like. 'Don't make me stop the car, or 'is your seat belt on?" she said.
She said she was surprised at her reaction to the kids while in the limo.
Crouse volunteers at a social agency that provides at-risk and under-served Lawrence youth the opportunity to create and participate in visual arts projects.
Crouse was the limousine driver and project assistant for this spring's "Let it Show" program, which was a Superhero Revue created by the children.
Lynne Green, executive
director for Van Go Mobile Arts, Inc., said she never worried with Crouse behind the wheel of the mural painted limousine.
"I always knew that the kids would get from school to practice safe and on time," she said.
Besides transporting the kids from school to practice, Crouse also pitched in to help in all areas of the project.
Crouse said the best part of spending her Wednesday afternoons and Saturday mornings working on the project was the kids.
"She did everything basically,"Green said.
Green said volunteers such as Crouse, were vital to the success of the organization's projects.
"The volunteers are irreplaceable." Green said. "The projects don't run right without them."
This week across the nation, people are recognizing the contributions of volunteers such as Crouse. Yesterday kicked off the 26th annual National Volunteer Week.
Wendy Marshall, manager
of the Roger Hill Volunteer Center, 2518 Ridge Court, said this week provided an opportunity to recognize the contributions volunteers, such as Crouse, made to the Lawrence community.
"If we don't recognize the value of volunteers' contributions, we could lose them," she said. "We hope the volunteers' stories encourage more people to come out and provide for the community."
Crouse said volunteering was a rewarding experience. She said watching the kids' final performances and projects made donating her time worthwhile. She also said the participants developed impressive and clever plots.
VAW CO ROADS LTD
Crouse said she enjoyed her involvement with the project and would continue to volunteer at the center. She plans to help in the Van Boat project to be presented at Lawrence's Art-to-Go Parade May 1.

Airstrikes on Yugoslavia increase
The Associated Press
BELGRADE, Yugoslavia — NATO launched its most active day of airstrikes yesterday in its assault on Yugoslavia, pummeling refineries, bridges and dozens of other targets in what it said were highly successful operations.
But the refugee crisis only worsened on the 25th straight day of attacks aimed at making Yugoslav President Slobodan Milosevic halt his offensive in Kosovo and agree to a political settlement for the Serbian province.
Ethnic Albanians continued to pour out of Kosovo at the rate of a thousand an hour, bringing Serb forces closer to emptying the province of its ethnic Albanian majority. An estimated 40,000 refugees either left Kosovo for neighboring territory during the weekend or were at its borders preparing to leave, international
officials said.
In the latest tragedy to befall refugees, a car carrying a family across the border
to Alabama early yesterday struck a land mine planted at the edge of the narrow mountain path by Serb forces, killing three children, their mother and their grandmother.
NATO said they had graphic evidence,including film taken from allied aircraft as well as refugees' accounts of about 43 mass grave

gangs" bv Serb forces.
Maranti added that the burial sites were "neat rows of individual graves pointing to the southeast, toward Mecca," a sign the mostly Muslim ethnic Albanians were trying to "bury the victims of Milosevic with respect."
The alliance's jets flew more than 500 missions in the 24-hour period ending Sunday afternoon — a total that a NATO military spokesman said was the highest daily total yet. NATO pilots struck sites across Serbia and its Kosovo province, where they reported seeing smoke rising from burning villages.
Soon they will be bolstered by 24 U.S. Apache anti-tank helicopter gunships intended to target the Yugoslav army and special police forces accused of repressing Kosovo Albanians.
NATO said the first Apaches were expected in Albania from Italy by Monday, however severe rainstorms delayed deployment at least another day. An Albanian military source, meanwhile, said Sunday that several already had arrived elsewhere in the country during the previous two days.
Despite growing calls for NATO to send in ground troops, NATO Secretary-General Javier Solana insisted there were still no such plans.
But Solana said in a television interview with the BBC that if the moment came when a ground force was necessary, he was sure the countries that belong to NATO would be ready to do it.
U.S. companies finance 50th NATO anniversary
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Amid platters of stuffed grape leaves and hummus laid out in the Turkish ambassador's residence, diplomats, Congress members and federal officials mingled with executives whose corporations are kicking in $250,000 apiece for the NATO summit.
Schmoozing and talking business with leaders from 44 countries are part of the payoff for American corporate sponsors that help finance the receptions, logistics and hoopla surrounding NATO's 50th anniversary. The summit begins Friday in Washington.
General Motors, Ameritech and Boeing are among 13 companies so far that have donated at least a $250,000 in cash or goods and services. That buys one spot on the summit host committee's board of directors, which is dominated by communications and defense companies.
The committee has raised $6.5 million towards its goal of $8 million.
“It's a natural for us, because Ameritech is the largest foreign investor in European telecommunications," company representative George Steinitzer said. "Our purpose here is to support our existing relationships in Europe."
Ameritech is awaiting Federal Communications Commission permission to merge with another company with a seat on the host committee board, SBC Communications.
At last week's reception, Turkish Ambassador Baki Ilkin greeted guests alongside the committee chairman, former U.S. ambassador to Belgium Alan John Blinken. He is a senior adviser to a heavyweight lobbying firm with overseas clients, Akin. Gump. Strauss, Hauer & Feld.
Other board members also are well known in Washington political circles. As a group, the 13 companies spent $52 million on lobbying last year.

Deputy Secretary General and the games' chief fund-raising officer, said the company pulled back in January or February, before Olympic organizations finished investigating and implementing reforms. And he added that the door still was open for an agreement for 2002, because company officials have since met with Salt Lake Organizing Committee head Mitt Romney.
Salt Lake already has commitments for more support than Atlanta had by the time it staged its more expensive 1996 Summer Games.
But since the revelation that Salt Lake bid executives wooed IOC members with bribes, no new sponsors have signed on.
TVcycle makes couch potatoes pedal to watch
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Parents may have a way to budge their chip-chomping, TV-watching kids from the family sofa: a bicycle hooked up electrically to the set. To see their favorite shows, couch potatoes have to pedal.
Overweight Americans
An obesity researcher who came up with the "TVcycle" says early tryouts helped youngsters shed fat and discouraged TV viewing.
David Allison of St. Luke's Roosevelt Hospital in New York says his small study of a few overweight New York children suggests tinkering with the technology that makes life more comfortable
According to the National Institutes of Health:
55 percent of American adults are overweight or obese. That is up from 43 percent in 1960.
13 percent of young-agers ages 6 through 17 are overweight.
and help trim Americans' expanding waistlines. The National Institutes of Health says about 55 percent of American adults are overweight or obese, up from 43 percent in 1960. Studies also suggest more than 13 percent of youngsters ages 6 through 17 are overweight and getting fatter each year. Research shows television is a major culprit for kids who otherwise might burn calories while playing.
For his experiment, an engineer rewired TV sets to work only while the viewer was pedaling an attached bicycle. Built-in computers measure how long the televisions were on. The TVcycles, which are back in Allison's office as he hunts money for a larger study, are not for sale.
with NIH funding, Allison delivered the TVcycles to six overweight TV fans, ages 8 to 12, and put standard exercise bikes in front of televisions for four similar children. The kids did not diet, and the televisions for the TVcycle group were locked to prevent cheating.
Ten weeks later, the four kids who watched television while lolling on the couch saw 20 hours a week and bicycled only 8 minutes a week.
The six TVcycle kids watched an hour a week and pedaled an hour a week. But that was not all the TVcycle kids watched. They did not pedal when the family watched television together, and there was some cheating. Allison said.
But the pedaling kids fminished the study with 2 per centage points less total body fat.

"We're at some critical turning points here," said Charles Snare of Middle Georgia College, who has written several articles criticizing grade inflation and its underlying causes. "The bottom line in our society is that colleges are expected to provide students with basic skills and demand those skills be learned. From what I've studied, businesses don't believe we're doing that."

Snare said grade inflation devalued a student's degree, giving businesses and graduate schools little to go on when appraising a college graduate's ability.
"All the studies I have seen show grades are at the bottom in hiring decisions," Snare said. "Employers have little faith in the grades given. They say, 'Everyone gets A's now.' There's no longer an A, B, C distinction."
But the consensus at the University seems to be that rising grades are not a cause for alarm. Many administrators and faculty point out that the quality of students is better now than in the 1970s because of higher admissions standards for the University and specific schools.
"We're bringing in better students," said Provisod Shulenburger, the University's chief academic officer. "If grades consistently
mean the same thing,
then higher grade
would be expected."
Shulenburger said he wouldn't rule out the possibility that some faculty might have more lenient grading standards, but he said methods of teaching and evaluation had changed over time.
"We've moved from evaluating factual
knowledge to assessing the theoretical understanding," which leads to better performance from students, he said.
Several KU faculty members agreed with Shulenburger
Fred Rodriguez, director of the Center for Teaching Excellence and an associate professor in the School of Education, said he wouldn't be worried if 90 percent of his students got A's if they demonstrated understanding of the course content.
"If a physician had the cure for cancer or AIDS, that person would win a Nobel Prize." Rodriguez said. "If a teacher can guarantee high ability in learning content, we accuse them of soft standards and inflating grades. We hear that a lot."
either side.
The traditional theory of distribution is that grades should fall along a normal "bell" curve. The highest number of grades should be in the average, or C, range, and the D', F', B's, B' and A's should taper off on
Rodriguez said he questioned that approach.
"If students can demonstrate their knowledge as a result of instruction, are we going to penalize them and make some of them get F$?" he asked.

Cynthia Annett, assistant professor of biology, also teaches courses in statistics. She said people studying grade inflation needed to be careful
about making assumptions when looking at the raw data
Rachel Kesselman/KANSAN
"I think in many cases, bias in grading is assumed," Annett said.
Annett said misinformation was being used in the grade- inflation de bate against outstanding faculty whose students happened to get good grades.
"We have a bunch of
smart students who work very hard," she said. "It's too easy to fall into bashing students, bashing teachers. Everyone's a bozo."
Even if students are brighter and teachers are better, several elite universities are trying to add context to grades and draw distinctions among their students, many of whom get A's.
Dartmouth University publishes the median grade in a class next to the grade received on a student's transcript. Stanford University took a harder line and began falling students after a 20-year period in which not one had been given at the university.
Duke University tried to completely eliminate traditional grades and evaluate students using an "achievement index" that took into account difficulty of the class and comparisons with students elsewhere. That proposal failed to pass a faculty committee.
these attempts to deal with grade inflation had been unsuccessful because inflation was a non-issue.
"The academy doesn't define this as a problem," he said.
KU Provost Shulenburger said
Although many who work behind ivy-covered walls may not think grade inflation is an issue, there are voices of concern on campus and elsewhere.
Mary Sykes of Rose Hill, Kan., went back to school for a bachelor's degree in accounting at Wichita State University in the early 1990s after earning an English degree more than 20 years previously from Texas Tech. She said the difference in the way classes were taught and grades awarded surprised her.
"I found that getting an A took work, but a B covered a broad range," Sykes said. "Professors don't want to give a C, but the student hasn't worked hard enough for an A, so they give a B. It's not too hard to get a B."
Tracy Florenti, Lawrence graduate student, has been a graduate teaching assistant in KU's English Department for six years. Even in that time, she said, she has noticed a change in the way students perceive grades.
"People don't think of grades as they're traditionally meant to be," Florean said. "It depends on the student, but often a C is thought of an F now. I've noticed that more people are frustrated by C's and B-minuses than they used to be."
Although Shulenburger contends students are arriving better-prepared for college than they used to be, Floreani said she thought many students were ill-equipped. She said high schools were not teaching students how to write analytically and that many of them had to start over in their University classes.
"I feel for those students," she said.
Some employers say college graduates with high GPAs aren't necessarily prepared to enter the workforce.
"The GPA is not by itself a factor," said Jim Mason, selection leader for Koch Industries of Wichita. "I don't feel like that's an indicator of future performance by itself."
Koch Industries of Wichita is the nation's second-largest private employer and a top employer of KU graduates.
"We look at the whole picture of that particular person," he said.
activity and passion to contribute when making hiring decisions.
Mason said he evaluated work ethic, problem-solving skills, creat
At KU, the schools whose grades have jumped the most since 1978 are Education, from an average GPA of 2.96 to 3.43, or 16 percent; Business, 2.78 to 3.17, or 14 percent; and Pharmacy, 2.91 to 3.29, or 13 percent.
A study by the National Center for Education Statistics has reported that grade inflation is a problem in schools of education more than any other academic field, but Dean Karen Gallagher said that at KU, at least, it isn't a factor.
The School of Education has seen the most dramatic increase in average GPA, and its undergraduate students have the second-highest grades at the University.
Gallagher said part of the leap in average GPA could be attributed to a change in the way education students were counted. In 1978, the school accepted freshmen, but now students must be at least juniors.
She also said education students
were some of the brightest at the University.
Cynthia Annett
"What that says to me is that good people want to become teachers," she said.
The reason for higher grades in the School of Pharmacy is an increase in the talent in the applicant pool, Associate Dean Jeremy Matchett said.
assistant professor of biology
"We accept 100 students from as many as 300 applicants," Matchett said. "The competition is greater, therefore the abilities of students are greater."
Pluses and minuses are intended not to bring grades down, but to draw distinctions
Of the schools with the highest increases, only Business has shown any concern. Beginning next fall, it will adopt plus-minus grading, which all schools have the option to use, Associate Dean Bruce Bubiltz said.
"Now I can put a third in B-minus, a third in B and a third in B-plus," Bublitz said. With the A and A-minus, the School of Busi-
nes will now have five acceptable categories instead of just two.
between students who are almost all earning A's and B's. Bublit said the B range had been too broad, with a huge gap between people doing low-B work and those earning a high B.
Bublitz said the school couldn't go
Grade Scale
A = 4.0
A = 3.7
B+ = 3.3
B = 3.0
B- = 2.7
C+ = 2.3
C = 2.0
C- = 1.7
D+ = 1.3
D = 1.0
D- = 0.7
F = 0
back to making a C an average grade because to do so would put graduates at a competitive disadvantage with graduates elsewhere
"We will still grade comparable to other business schools but we'll make more distinctions based on performance," he said.
Grade researcher Snare maintains that there might be other reasons grades are rising. He attributes grade inflation on a national level to an increasing consumer mentality among students — they're paying for an education and they're not paying for C's.
He also points to studies that show professors who give higher grades get better evaluations. He said that correlation was troubling in light of how heavily student evaluations are weighed in tenure decisions.
Provost Shulenburger, chairman of the Promotion and Tenure Committee, denied that an instructor could "buy" good evaluations with high grades.
"That's a strategy that doesn't work," he said. "It's a deal you can't make."
So far, the University of Kansas is not discussing grade inflation. Administrators say grades are up only a modest amount and many faculty don't seem concerned.
in the meantime, KU junior Popp is facing the law-school application process and assessing his own GPA situation.
"If you are clearly a better student, someone who gets an inflated grade that's the same as yours eliminates your competitive edge," he said.

Mike Elwell has spent his life working as a Douglas County district attorney and judge, using his free time as a patron of the arts and a self-taught sculptor. For the past decade, he has been carving his dreams into the Barbwire building, 8 E. Sixth St., next to the Riverfront Mall.
The Barbwire building is an archive of Lawrence tradition. Many of the decorations throughout the building are antiques from the days when Lawrence was a fishing town. Old reels, nets, boats and hooks help to bring the fishing tradition back to life.
standing in the center of the structure allows an open view of the entire building. Elwell said he left the ceilings open to make the building more spacious. There are only a few rooms in the building not visible from the main floor.
"So many people cut corners and spend less money, but this building deserves to be restored in a way that everyone can appreciate," Elwell said. "The building grows on you. You see things you want to do and they take time and money."
The building will contain two bars, a stage and dance floor, an ice cream shop and many sporadic pieces of art work on the main floor. On the second level, Elwell plans to have a coffee shop, a personal art gallery and some small shops reminiscent of an old English village.
Set off from the main floor are the rooms that will become Abe and Jake's Tavern. The tavern memorializes two famous Lawrence fishermen. It is decorated with fishing gear and a 100 year-old row boat.
"We've been blessed by going slow because we can see what really looks good." Elwell said.
A cluster of royal-blue aluminum arches reaches for the ceiling from the center of the main floor. Elwell acquired the arches from an artist in Grand Junction, Colo. He plans to plant grass below the arches as setting for some of his sculptures, including sheep and a giant frog.
Deeper into the building is a wood dance floor accompanied by a large stage. Elwell
"It's great to find something beautiful that we can have in the past and today."
Mike Elwell Lawrence resident
said he hoped to hire folk bands, string quartets and other light entertainment groups to perform weekly. Swing and tea dancing may also become a part of the lineup.
Elwell said one of the frustrating things about a younger crowd was that they often damaged property. He explained that he would hate to have some drunk kids walk up and carve their initials into the expensive artwork around the place.
"The bulk of the place will be open to everyone." Elwell said. "The bars will be open to people 25 and older. We want to have a nice peaceful crowd."
"I'm hoping to attract an older crowd," Elwell said. "A lot of young people have no respect for property."
Elwell has shelled out almost $1.5 million to design and construct the interior of the diverse Barbwire building. But he also has cut expenses by being resourceful.
He acquired an old fence from a cemetery outside of Coffeyville and old church pews from a Mormon Church in Dennison, Iowa. He said he liked searching for items to add to the character of the building.
"It's great to find something beautiful that we can have in the past and today," Elwell said.
two doors that are now a part of the building came from the old KU union and other parts of the building came from KU fraternities including Delta Upsilon and Sigma Nu.
Signal This is not the only building that Elwell has restored in Lawrence; he also bought and renovated the Granada, 1020 Massachusetts St. But the Barbwire building is proving to be his favorite and most time-
consuming renovation.
"I like old buildings," Elwell said. "The Granada was in pretty sad shape when I bought it. I like taking these old buildings and bringing them back to life."
This project, however, has had its share of problems. Elwell originally acquired a lease for the building in 1989, at which time he was given a building lease until 1994
he was given a bonus. In 1993, the Kansas River flooded into the basement of the building, which sits right on the shore of the river. Floods halted production again in 1995, making it difficult to stay on schedule.
"It took us longer to do it right," Elwell said. "It's been a much bigger project than I thought."
Elwell hit another snag when the ownership of the neighboring Riverfront Mall changed. Chelsea, a New Jersey-based company, originally owned the mall. Elwell had an agreement with the company to allow access to the Barbwire building through the mall. Elwell said he thought it would improve business for both places to have people wandering though the buildings.
Now the mall is owned by Riverfront L.L.C., and the management has told Elwell it will not allow an entrance to the building through the mall. This has left the old factory with no formal entrance. The change in plans also has hindered the possibility of a natural handicapped entrance needed to meet code.
"I thought it would attract people and be mutually advantageous," Elwell said. "I still wish somehow to manage to save the handicapped entrance."
An elevator system seems to be an answer to the that problem, but it is also an expensive solution. Currently, the only way to reach the building is to walk down the railroad tracks.
Elwell said he was hoping to restore a
Given these setbacks and the fact that only five or six people are working on the building at a time, Elwell now needs to meet with city officials to negotiate a new lease.
bridge that would connect the building to the Riverfront parking lot to make getting inside the building a bit easier.
"In 1991, we felt it was appropriate to remodel and restore that building." Wilden said. "It has taken Mike some time to get to that point and to meet all of the necessary codes. Clearly it's a challenging building."
"The restaurant and bar next to the river provides a more scenic place for those inclined to sit and have a longer dinner, a few drinks over good conversation," Sage Elwell said. "Some of the other places cater to a quicker, younger crowd, but we are an older, more relaxed crowd."
City Manager Mike Wilden said the lease would include restrictions on how late the building could stay open, the length of time the lease would last, an agreement to pay taxes and more. Wilden said the new lease was hard to spell out completely or grant immediately.
The building may open as early as this September. Elwell said he anticipated that the bars would close at midnight during the week and around 1:30 a.m. on the weekends.
Elwell's son, Sage, Raytown graduate student, said he thought the building would offer a relaxing place for older students and Lawrence residents.

Women finish with Pride

Kansan swriter
At one point, head coach Marian Washington grabbed Lynn Pride's arm before she could return to her seat and told her she should probably just save a trip.
The first-team All-Big 12 Conference member nearly wore a path from her chair to the acceptance area at the women's postseason banquet Saturday night. Pride finished the evening with five awards, including the Lynette Woodard Most Valuable Player Award for the second consecutive year.

The awards portion of the banquet held few surprises as Pride also took home the Steals Leader Award, Vickie Adkins Rebounding Award, Angela Aycock Free Throw Percentage Award and 94-40 Defensive Award, which is given to the player who is said to have played defense on all 94 feet of the court for 40 minutes. During the 1998-99 season, Pride led the Jayhawks with 17.1 points, 7.2 rebounds and 2.6 steals per game, while shooting a team-high 73 percent from the free-throw line.
The team took the opportunity to thank
its supporters and booster club, known as The Courtsiders, for its year-long support. Many were in attendance at this year's annual post-season banquet, held at the Holidome, 200 McDonald Drive.
"I just want to congratulate this coaching staff and team on a great season," said Chancellor Robert Hemenway in an opening statement. "I am proud of the way they represent the University of Kansas. I did a lot of cheering and clapping, and I'm ready to do it again next year."

LAWRENCE, Kan. — Maybe one thing could get Roy Williams to leave Kansas for North Carolina.
And even a personal appeal from Dean Smith might not be enough, Williams said Thursday.
"If that situation ever comes down, then I'll have to make a decision." Williams said before Kansas' annual basketball banquet. "I don't think (Smith) would put me in that position. But (if he did), it would be hard, but I could (decline)."
Williams has been the subject of persistent rumors the past two years that he would head back to North Carolina, where he was an assistant under Smith before he took the Kansas job in 1988. The two are close friends.
The talk resurfaced again after last season as unhappiness built with Bill Gutheridge, Smith's successor.
williams said he has grown tired of answering the persistent rumors. He issued a statement during the Big 12 tournament this year as the talk began again that it was unfair to Gatheride and unfair to him.

After 11 seasons, Williams said he has put his stamp on the Kansas

"It's still the basketball program of the University of Kansas, but it's got my fingerprints all over it now." Williams said. "The first few years, it wasn't like that. I was just the guy who was in charge. With each and every year, those fingerprints become more evident and there are more of them.
Williams: Has no plans to leave the Kansas Jayhawks.
"These are my kids
now. When we have reunions, there's a lot of my players who come back. When we talk about the top five or 10 scorers or rebounders or whatever, a lot of those guys are guys who I coached. With each and every year, it gets to be more my program."
"I cannot paint you a scenario that would entice me to leave because I don't know that there is one," he said. "That's saying it as plain as I can. Money has never gotten it done. The pro game has never gotten it done.
Williams said he had never talked about returning to Chapel Hill with anyone at North Carolina.
"I've never been enticed by the college game to go somewhere else. I love Lawrence."
Kansas athletic director Bob Frederick, who took a chance on Williams and took heat for hiring a man who was then a no-name coach with no head coaching experience, said he was concerned at first that Williams was merely waiting for Smith to retire before he headed back to North Carolina. He isn't concerned anymore.
"In his early years, there was a concern. Frederick said. "But I haven't given it a moment's thought in the last five years except when someone in the media asks about it."
Williams said the only other thing besides a personal request from Smith that could cause him to leave would be if he suddenly fell out of favor at Kansas.

Kansas drops three to Oklahoma State

The Oklahoma State Cowboys came to Hoglund Ballpark this weekend and defeated Kansas in three straight games, earning a series sweep.
The losses push Kansas' losing streak to 12 games. That streak is the longest in school history, eclipsing the mark of 11 set by the 1940 team.
"That's never a record I want to be a part of," coach Bobby Randall said. "And I know it's hard on the guys, but we've just got to keep working hard and always keep fighting."
Despite being swept, the Jayhawks fought the games down to the last pitch.
The teams were scheduled to play one game each on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Because of Friday night's bad weather, the teams played two games Sunday.
Saturday's opener was a pitching duel through seven innings as Kansas starter Rusty Philbrick and Oklahoma State starter Matt Smith mowed down hitters and kept the runs off the board.
After the seventh, however, the bullpens opened the flood gates as 22 runs were scored in the final two innings. Kansas went on to lose 16-10.
"It was two games today, 3-1 and 13-9." Randall said. Offensively, John Nelson, Shane Wedd and Doug Dreher led the charge for the Jayhawks, delivering two hits aniece.
Sunday's first game picked up where Saturday
game left off as the teams scored 13 runs in the first three innings. Kansas led or was tied most of the way until the seventh, when the Cowboys tacked on four runs to go ahead 12-9.
The Jayhawks battled the next two innings and got the tying run to first base in the ninth. But with two outs, Nelson was caught trying to steal second, ending the game.
"We're unsure if we can win those kind of games, but we're not afraid to compete in them," Randall said.
Compete they did, as the Jayhawks pounded out a season-high 17 hits in the contest.

Football team thwarted by elements, injuries
By Michael T. Rigg sports at kansan.com
Kansas writerwriter
After the first three weeks of spring football practice, one thing's been made clear to the Kansas football team: The sky is the limit.
Monday was sunny and windy, Thursday was wet, while Saturday's full-contact scrimmage was simply frigid. However, the arctic conditions did not stop coach Terry Allen from seeing progress in his team, especially in Saturday's scrimmage at Memorial Stadium.
This was especially true this past week, when the sky limited the Jayhawks to three practices, two of which had weather conditions more suited for Antarctica than Kansas in April.
In the scrimmage, the offense scored 22 points, completed two long pass plays and dominated the defense from whistle to whistle, save for a few penalties and dropped passes. The dominance is a complete U-turn from earlier in the week, when
the offense was frequently dominated by the defense.
The offensive progress has made Allen think twice about the productivity of his defense, which ranked 107th in the nation last season in rushing defense.
"You go 'Boy, we did a good job offensively," then you go 'Boy, are we that bad defensively?" Allen said. "The thing that I
look for to see if we're progressing is if you have good days by each group. On Wednesday, the defense totally dominated. So it's probably a
AU
good thing the offense dominated [Saturday]. If just one team continually dominates, then I think you have some problems. If you have some ups and downs, then I think that's a good sign."
The ups and downs are what nose tackle John Williams and the rest of the defense
hope to eliminate by Saturday's spring game. Williams thinks the fluctuations in the defense mean the unit needs more practice.
Senior quarterback Zac Wegner said Saturday's show of offense was a definite improvement compared to the last few springs.
"The screen passes are just something we haven't seen yet." Williams said.
The defense was beaten twice on long pass plays, one to wide receiver Termaine Fulton that set the offense up on the 1 yard line and another 70 yard touchdown screen pass to running back Mitch Bowles. Williams said the long passes were results of offensive schemes previously unseen this spring.
The defense also has been victimized by injury. The wet turf at Thursday's practice caused numerous injuries, and more surfaced as the week progressed, according to Allen. Junior college transfer linebacker Chaz Murphy broke his middle finger, and free safety Chad Coellner injured his right thumb.
Murphy is out for the rest of spring practice, while Coellner will see limited action Allen said the risks of the players playing hurt outweigh the benefits of the additional practice. "We don't want to take any chances," Allen said.
Allen said the wet turf at Memorial Stadium Wednesday contributed to injuries to wide receiver Byron Gasaway (knee) and defensive back Tanner Hancock (shoulder). Allen called off Friday's practice because of similar conditions, he said.
"B be danger if we didn't get on the bus yesterday, go all the way over to the stadium, and there was ice on the field," Allen said. "After Wednesday, I was scared to death, so we got back on the bus, drove back, and didn't practice."
The lack of practice time means more work this week for the Jayhawks, culminating with Saturday's spring game.
"We'll go all out this week, and go every day if we have to," Allen said.
The spring game is scheduled for 1 p.m.
Saturday at Memorial Stadium.

After having not played in a month because of three game cancellations and spring break, the Jayhawks came out looking rusty. Playing on a muddy field made for a number of dropped passes and a slow game for both teams.
SPORTS BRIEFS AND SCORES
The Kansas men's rugby team closed its intercollegiate schedule Saturday with a 15-3 victory against Missouri at Westwick Rugby Complex in Lawrence.
The Jayhawks lead the entire game, scoring first on an 8-meter try run by Oliver Parkinson, Prairie Village freshman. Ryan Crosby, Teague kauni, convicted the kick, and added a penalty kick later in the first half.

The Tigers scored a penalty kick of their own before halftime, and the score remained 10-3 until the last minute of the game. J.P. Davies, Leawood freshman, broke the Missouri defense, giving Kansas a second try.
Note: Horoscopes have no basis in scientific fact and should be read for entertainment purposes only.
"This felt really good," said Ryan Kiliany, Kansas City senior. "I hate Missouri so much, and they defeated us last fall, so this was sweet."
The men finished their season with a 4-2-1 record against other schools, and will face Kansas City Rugby Football club on Saturday.
The Kansas women's rugby team was upset by Missouri 10-0 Saturday in a game also played at Westwick. In a controversial call, Tracy Williams, Lenexa junior, appeared to have scored, but the try was called back by referee Gary Hartzell. Kansas coach John Wiley, enraged by the call, was then ejected from the game by Hartzell.
"That call hurt us, but that's not why we lost," said Heidi Spann. Lawrence junior. "We allowed ourselves to be outplayed today, which is unfortunate."

Fletcher earns Most Improved Award for outstanding season
NCAA appearance and 10th consecutive 20-win season. A season which saw Washington win her 500th career game on Feb. 10 against Oklahoma.
"It's a great opportunity to come together and recognize the accomplishments of these young women," said Washington, who received a commemorative basketball in honor of her own
accomplishment. She used the occasion to thank her team.
"When we were approaching the 500th win, I saw the strain on their faces. I just want to tell them how much that meant and how I will never forget it."
Brooke Reves received the Shebra Legrant Newcomer Award and Jackie Martin Inspiration Award after scoring 10.4 points per contest — second only to Pride — in her first season playing in the Kansas program.
---
The Assists Leader and Academic Achievement awards went to Jennifer Jackson who performed on the court as well as in the classroom. She was named to the first-team academic all-Big 12 team for the second straight year.
Pride; Was recognized with five awards.
The team's loudest applause may have come when Heather Fletcher was given the Most Improved Award. The 6-3 junior nearly tripled the playing time of her first two seasons combined. She provided much needed bench support after
season-ending knee injuries to Suzi Raymant and Nikki White depleted the Jayhawks' depth, obstacles of which Washington was quick to remind the audience .
"The way they handled challenges says a lot about this team," she said. "They displayed what unselfishness is all about."
Players, however, were not the only members of the Jayhawk family honored for their unselfishness.
Peg Wittmer, who will retire this year after more than 20 seasons as a radio announcer for the Jayhawks, was recognized for her tireless dedication to women's basketball. Wittmer anchored the Marian Washington show in 1977, one of the first women's basketball shows of its kind, at a time when Washington said many thought businesses would never support women's basketball.

Fletcher: Earned loup applause for her role on the team.
Nakia Sanford, who received the Adrian Mitchell Sportsmanship Award, and Shandy Robins each were presented with framed jerseys from the team, and each spoke about her time at Kansas.
"I can now start the next chapter of my life." Robbins said. "I just want to say to this team, work hard and stay together, and you will succeed."

Softball team boasts five-win streak
By Brandon Stinnett sports@kansan.com Kansan sportwriter
It was all smiles for the Kansas softball team yesterday afternoon, after taking both games of a doubleheader against the University of Missouri-Kansas City, 7-0 and 5-3 at Jayhawk Field. The wins came one day after the Jayhawks beat 23rd ranked Missouri for the third time this season, 7-4, in their conference home opener.
The wins yesterday pushed the Kansas winning streak to five and moved the Jayhawks to within one game of 500 at 22-23.
Leah Tabb was the hero against Missouri. The Jayhawks trailed 1-0 in the bottom of the sixth inning when Tabb knocked a 3-2 pitch over the left-field wall for a three-run home run to give the Jayhawks a 3-1 lead.
"I was just trying to put the ball in play with a line-drive
base hit," Tabb said. "I knew it was either going to hit the wall or go over. I'm just excited that I was able to help out the team and do my part."
Kansas added four more runs in the inning to go up 7-1. The Tigers scored three runs in the seventh, but the Jayhawks managed to hold on for the victory. Tabb went 1 for 3 in the game with three RBI. It was her fourth home run of the season.
Pitcher Sarah Workman earned the win, allowing four runs on six hits and striking out seven.
In the first game against UMKC, the Jayhawks broke it open early, scoring five runs on five singles in the first inning. Kansas added two more runs in the fifth when freshman Megan Urquhart hit a two-run double with runners at the corners.
Workman earned the win, allowing just one hit and striking out eight. It was
workman's fifth win in a row and her seventh shutout of the season.
"It's like a totally different team out there right now," Coach Tracy Bunge said, "And it all starts on the mound with pitching. Sarah is throwing really well right now."
The Jayhawks had to come from behind to win the second game. The Kangaroos scored two runs in the top-of the sixth inning to take a 2-1 lead. Kansas responded with four runs on five hits in the bottom-of the sixth.
JUNE 23, 1986
Heather Chambers hit a two-run base hit in the inning. Chambers was 2 for 2 in the game with a career high two RBI.
"I think there is a big difference in the team's execution and it all starts with confidence," Chambers said. "We are a lot different team then we were two, three weeks ago. I think we're relaxed and having fun."

Personal, meet bests top track weekend
By Mike Miller
Kansan sportswriter
Andrea Bulat set a meet record in the javelin at the Arkansas Invitational last weekend, highlighting a split-squad weekend for the men's and women's track teams.
With most of the team in Fayetteville, Ark., 14 athletes competed in the Mt. SAC Relays, in Carmel, Calif., during the last four days. The Mt. SAC Relay competition concluded late last night. Final results were not available at press time.
'Bulat's throw of 167-5 was the fourth best in school history and gave her the first victory of her career. It shattered the previous meet record of 1542 by more than 13 feet,
"I was expecting a big throw," Bulat said. "I just didn't think it would come this early."
She led the way for seven other Jayhawks who finished in the top five of their events.
Besty Cordell finished fourth behind Bulat in the lavelin with a mark of 138-11.
Chris Dunback placed second in the hammer
Chris Dunback placed throw with a mark of 173-11, while Darin Schmitz threw 1724.4, finishing third. Dunback's mark was a personal best.
TRACK AND FIELD
Ryan Speers threw more than 55 feet in the shot put for the third straight week, tossing the shot 55-10 1/4, finishing second. Speers also finished fifth in the discus with a throw of 152-8.
"It was cold and windy which made it tough to throw, but I was pleased with it. Now I'd like to see a jump in my distance somewhere down the road," Speers said.
Groeb Steele vaulted 15 feet, finishing third in the pole vault, while Justin Stancil finished seventh.
Spinter Jabari Wamble ran 47.46 seconds in the 400-meter dash, finishing fourth.
Andy Tate finished fifth in the 3,000-meter steeplechase with a time of 9:18.40.
Other notable finishers included Katy Eisenmeng, seventh in the 1,500-meter run; Kerry Fink, ninth in the 400-meter hurdles; sophomore Sherre-Khan Blackmon, ninth in the 800-meter run; Shanna Shoemaker, seventh in the high jump; Jennifer Foster, eighth in the discus and 11th in the shot put; and Dave Henderson, ninth in the 400-meter hurdles.

"The biggest part for me is to disassiate myself from the athletic department. These are good people here, and that's the part I miss."
Waugh played basketball for Kansas from 1948-51 and has served as assistant men's basketball coach, assistant athletics director and head coach for the men's and women's golf teams at Kansas.
As for the Big 12 Championships, Waugh said Kansas could finish almost anywhere. Other than tournament-favorites Texas, Baylor and Oklahoma State, the rest of the field is up for grabs.
"I'm not sure what team will show up for us, but we can perform well on any day" Waugh said. "We're inconsistent, and we need to put together three rounds. Not necessarily outstanding rounds, just consistent rounds."

Freshman Ashley Lowery has had a steady year for the Jayhawks, and she said she was pleased with her first collegiate season.
"I had high expectations for myself, and I feel I was let down a little by those," she said. "I would like to get a top-20 finish at the Big 12, because this one is special. It's the kind of tournament when good players rise to the top."
As the North-West Regional approaches, the Jayhawks are right now on the outside looking in. Waugh said that they were not a strong candidate to qualify, but that they have improved their chances over the last two tournaments.
If the Jayhawks do not qualify, Munsch and junior Susan Tessary are candidates to qualify as individuals.
"We started slow, and that may make it difficult for us to qualify," Waugh said.

He said that although it was nice to pitch well, losing was the only thing that stuck out.

"You grow up watching OSU play and see them go to the College World Series, so it's really fun to keep them where I did," Schmidt said. "But whenever the team loses, the individual stuff doesn't matter."

Tennis team strains; Texas Tech clinches 4th seed in Big 12
Men suffer tough losses
By Melinda Weaver sports@kansan.com Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas men's tennis team suffered two tough losses to No. 8 Baylor and no. 28 Texas Tech this weekend, increasing its losing streak to four games.
The No. 40 Jayhawks, 10-7 overall and 2-5 in the conference, were shut out for only the third time in the 1990s Friday when they lost to Baylor 7-0. Baylor is 19-1 overall and 6-0 in the conference.
However, the loss was not as one-sided as the score indicated, as three matches went into three sets.
No. 18 Luis Uribe lost to No. 25 Johann Jooste 2-6, 6-3, 6-4 in No. 1 singles; Rodrigo Echagaray lost to Johannes Michalksy 4-6, 7-5, 6-4 in No. 5 singles; Quentin Blakeney lost to Mark Williams 6-4, 3-6, 6-3 in No. 6 singles.
The team produced better results against Texas Tech, 14-8 overall and 4-4 in the conference, yesterday in a 5-2 loss.
By winning, Texas Tech clinched the fourth seed in the Big 12 Conference tournament, dropping Kansas out of its chance at the spot.
The top three spots still are up for grabs as Baylor, Texas and Texas A&M are tied for first in the conference.
The two victories against Texas Tech came from Kenny Powell in No. 2 singles and Quentin Blakeney in No. 6 singles.
Powell defeated No. 88 Ryan
Shube in a match that had to be retired because of a thumb injury that Shube suffered last week in practice. Blakeney defeated Dustin Hawk 6-4, 6-4.
But in No. 5 singles, Texas Tech's Petar Danolic defeated Echagarray 6-3 and 6-2, At No. 2 doubles, Kansas lost 8-6.
Kansas has lost its last four matches to Texas schools. Last weekend, the Jayhawks lost to No. 5 Texas 5-2 and No. 21 Texas A&M 5-2.
With the tough part of its schedule behind them, Kansas will play its last regular-season match Saturday against unranked Oklahoma State.
"We need to go to Oklahoma State next weekend and turn it around before we enter the postseason," coach Mark Riley said.

Coach Jenny Garrity said she was happy with Sell's play.
Kansas defeated Oklahoma State 7-2 and Oklahoma 6-3. In each match, the Jayhawks clinched victory before heading into the doubles portion.
"Kris just needed to refocus her strengths," she said. "She has the weapons to beat anyone in the

Softball team suspends pitcher for violation of team policies
By Brandon Skinnett sports@kansan.com
Kansan sportwriter
Jessi Kowal is no longer a member of the Kansas softball team. The sophomore pitcher has been suspended for the remainder of the season for violating team policies, head coach Tracy Bunge said Friday.
Kowal will remain on scholarship for the remainder of the 1998-99 school year, but she will not return to Kansas next fall. She had a 6-7 record in 17 appearances this season.
Kowal declined to comment on the suspension and said she had
not decided where she would attend school in the fall.
With Kowal out, junior Melanie DeWinter will step into the Jayhawks' No. 2 pitching spot. DeWinter has appeared in 11 games this season and has a 2-4 record. She has allowed 53 hits and 23 runs in 39 innings of work.
DeWinter picked up her second win yesterday against the University of Missouri-Kansas City. She allowed three runs on six hits in six and a third innings in the Jayhawks' 5-3 victory.
Junior Christy McPhail also will be seeing more work at
pitcher. McPhail is the team's starting shortstop and has pitched in just four games this season. She has allowed five runs on 15 hits in just over 12 innings of work.
"It could be a situation where we pitch Melanie for three or four innings and then we bring in Christy," Bunge said.
McPhail saw considerable action last season while the Jayhawks' number one pitcher, junior Sarah Workman, was out with a torn biceps tendon. McPhail finished 1998 with a 14-15 record and 2.81 ERA.

The Kansas women's soccer team continued its spring-season success by winning two more games yesterday, defeating Arkansas 1-0 and Arizona State 2-1.
Women's soccer chalks up two victories in spite of its depleted 13-player roster
The victories kept the team undefeated and improved its record to 4-0. overall.
Although the record is impressive, a fact even more noteworthy may be that this weekend's victories both came with a depleted 13-player roster.
Against Arkansas, sophomore defender Kyle Watts scored the game's only goal-off a-corner kick to give the Jayhawks the
win.
In the Arizona State game, the Sun Devils scored first. But the Jayhawks fought back with a solid second half attack. Junior midfielder Melissa Downing put the women on the board, scoring on a put back when the Arizona State goalkeeper displayed the ball. Later in the half, freshman forward Natalie Hoogveld scored the game winner off a corner kick.
Offensively, the team had struggled to score goals in the fall. But this spring, scoring has not been a problem. Kansas has outscored its opponents 7-3
through five games. Another key to the Jayhawks success has been the play in goal by sophomore Katie Garrity and junior Betsy Pollard, who have combined for two shutouts.
The spring season will conclude this weekend with two games. First, the team will travel to Creighton on Saturday for a 1 p.m. game against the Blue Jays. The Jayhawks will then return to Lawrence to wrap up their season at home against Southwest Missouri State University at 4 p.m. at SuperTarget Field.

NFL draft snubs Kansas players
Glasgow signs as free agent with Dolphins; draft denial leaves Dercher's fate hazy
By Michael Rigg
mrigg @ukans.edu
Kansas sportwriter
On a sunny Sunday in Kansas, Kansas senior offensive linemen Dan Dercher and Justin Glasgow went to their respective parents' houses to wait for their names to be called as NFL drafts
And waited.
And waited some more, all the way through all seven rounds and nearly seven hours of dry draft coverage before their football fates were finally sealed as undrafted free agents.
Then they waited.
By last night, Dercher's fate was still unclear as he was reportedly trying to decide between the San Francisco 49ers and the Philadelphia Eagles, while Glasgow landed in southern Florida as a member of the Miami Dolphins.
It was the first time since 1990 that no Jayhawk was selected in the NFL Draft.
For Glasgow, the excitement of signing with the Dolphins overshadowed the disappointment of not being drafted.
to end up, and I was told that a free agent was a pretty sure deal."
"I'm excited," Glasgow said. "You kind of know going into the draft where you're going
Of course, that didn't mean there weren't any close calls yesterday: One team, the New Orleans Saints, even called Glasgow and said it would love to use one of its remaining picks on him. There was just one obstacle: the Saints had just traded every draft pick they had to move up and select Texas running back Ricky Williams.
"They said, 'We may not have any picks, but we do have a lot of money, so you can be a free agent.'" Glasgow said.
"The Steelers called me and said that they have two picks left, and they said they might pick me with one of them," Glasgow said. "So I told them to call my agent, but they never did."
The Pittsburgh Steelers also nearly gave Glasgow a chance.
The Steelers' apathy was the Dolphins' gain, as Glasgow signed with the Dolphins within minutes after the draft. Glasgow will fly to Miami on Thursday for the team's post-draft minicamp.

Finding playing time, however, may be difficult for Glasgow. The Dolphins recently traded

for Pro Bowl offensive lineman Kevin Gogan and drafted two offensive linemen during the weekend. Gogan was the subject of a Sports Illustrated article last fall, which named him as the NFL's dirtiest
as the NFL's dirtiest player.
"I'm excited to get the chance to go and fight for a spot," Glasgow said. "I just hope that I don't learn anything from Gogan."
Hope of any Jayhawk being drafted had faded by late yesterday afternoon when the Chicago Bears, rumored to be heavily interested in Dercher and Glasgow, selected Pennsylvania running back James Finn with the final and 253rd pick of the draft.
The Bears, who sent off ene-
Derher: Was not drafted but is looking at free agent options.
The Bears, who split order, sive line coach Bob Wylie to Kansas in March to evaluate Kansas' talent in a workout, had been on the phone with Dercher up to last week, when they told him that he probably would be drafted yesterday.
Ted Plumb, St. Louis Rams' representative, also was impressed by the linemen during the workout last month.
"Certainly we feel that there's some talent here at Kansas that will probably be drafted," Plumb said that day.
Dercher could not be reached for comment.
Chiefs add offensive lineman to roster
The Associated Press
Kansas City hopes to get repeat results with first-pick Tait
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Taking an offensive lineman with their first pick last year worked out so well the Kansas City Chiefs decided to stay with what works.
Picking 14th in the opening round of Saturday's NFL draft, the Chiefs addressed one of their most urgent needs and selected John Tait, a 6-foot-6, 311-pound left tackle from Brigham Young. They hope he'll be able to offer immediate help, as Victor Riley of Auburn did last season.
The Chiefs hit the jackpot when they made Riley their first-round choice a year ago. He stepped in when injuries created an emergency and started 15 games at right tackle, playing exceptionally well for a rookie on the offensive line.
"Now with two No.1 draft choices at the tackle position, with good coaching and good luck, these guys can play a long time for the Kansas City Chiefs," said president and general manager Carl Peterson.
Tait, 24, spent two years on a Mormon mission in Tennessee. The fourth-year junior is skipping his senior year and will be asked to replace 12-year veteran Jeff Criswell, who was inconsistent during last year's 7-9 campaign and left unprotected in the expansion draft.
"I'm very excited," Tait said.
"Kansas City's a great team with great fans. I'm very excited to get going there."
The Chiefs figure to leave the 320-pound Riley at right tackle and install Tait on the left side, which could bode well for quarterback Elvis Grbac, who has missed significant playing time the past two seasons with injuries.
CHIEFS
"Victor Riley is a very talented guy who came in and established himself at the right tackle position. Our preference would be to leave him there because he did so well as a rookie." Peterson said.
The Chiefs saw many of the same qualities in Tait and Riley.
"Athletically, they're similar in they both have good feet," said player personnel director Terry Bradway. "They run a little bit better than Victor did. But athletically, they both have good skills for the position."
"I see it as where you end up, not where you start out," he said. "Five years down the line, if people say John Tait was the best offensive lineman in this draft 'I'll be really happy.'"
The Chiefs tried to wheel and deal to get an earlier pick in the first round.
"We did attempt to move up for a couple of players we coveted who did go pretty early," Peterson said. "There were a couple of players we did discuss moving up to. The value they were asking for was too high."
Tait said he felt no special distinction in being the first offensive lineman taken.
The Chiefs, who had only five picks in the seven rounds, also talked to other teams about moving down and getting some additional choices.
"But for what they were offering, it just wasn't the right thing," Peterson said. "With John there at the 14th spot, we felt very, very good about that. It's a position we needed to address."

Commentary
If NBA comes knocking, athletes should open door
This is a no brainer, but I'll tell you anyway.
If the NBA is calling, go.
Whether you're a graduating senior who finished his college season strong, a sophomore point guard who should have won a national championship but didn't, or just a mean, overgrown shot-blocking 18-year-old who still has to worry about prom, you should go.
If the NBA wants you, go.
Duke sophomore sensation Elton Brand said he was going. Fans groaned.
Duke point guard William Avery announced he was not coming back. Fans complained that he was not ready for the NBA.
Missouri enigma Albert White hasn't returned to classes from spring break yet. I'm guessing he's not sick.
White, who has dazzled Missouri fans with his moments of brilliance followed immediately with moments of mediocrity, has been blasted by those who think they know better than he does.
The NBA, Albert? Are you sure?
The NBA, Albert? Are you sure?
On a quiet evening in Lawrence, if you listen closely, you can still hear the murmur of Kansas fans grumbling about Paul Pierce's departure.
You know the fans just want what is best for their players. They want to see them develop into young men before making all that money.
At least, that is what they want you to think. The truth is, the fans are so hungry for a Final Four appearance, they would rather see a player like Paul Pierce play with a broken leg than possibly bail out of the NCAA tournament early.
Yes. I'm saving fans can be selfish.
They love their teams so much that they want to see victory at all costs. Leaving the team for the next level early draws criticism rather than congratulations.
Let's put this in perspective.
NBA rockies make no less than $297,500 in a season. If you're age 17 or
22 and have a contract with the worst team in the league, you're making at least that much. Odds are you're making much more than that.
M. R. S. M. P.
If the tables were turned, you'd do the same thing. Say you're a history major, and you're still working on your

degree to teach. Free State High School calls up one lazy Wednesday afternoon, and says, "Listen, we know you're not finished with your American history up to 1841 class yet, but we really like your lecture methods. Why don't you go ahead and leave school early, and we'll pay you $750,000 a year for your first three years."
Like I said, a no brainer.
If my hometown newspaper in lowly Mulvane, Kan., called up gave me that type of an offer, you'd never see another Seth Jones column again. I'd call my roommates from home and tell them to mail me my "Superman versus Muhamad Ali" comic book, and hold a garage sale for the rest of my junk to help with rent.
But it's even more important for athletes to leave when they can. A broken wrist at the wrong time can mean an end of a career.
So we're also dealing with chance. I broke my leg on Jan. 1, but my dismal career as a sports columnist continues.
But take former Colorado guard Donnie Boyce for instance. Boyce stayed four years at Colorado, but then suffered a broken leg in the first round of the 1985 Big Eight Tournament. That injury cost him most of his rookie season with the Atlanta Hawks. Prior to that injury, Boyce tore up every team in the Big Eight at one point or another, earning three All-Big Eight Team selections, including two First Team berths. He left Colorado as the school's all-time leading scorer with 1,995 points.
noyce's story ended as the Hawk's web page says, "Mar 4 1997 - Prior to the game, the Hawks waived little-use guard Donnie Boyce, who had not played in the previous six contests. Boyce, a 1995 draft pick from Colorado, averaged only 2.5 points per game."
Meanwhile, another Colorado product by the name of Chauncey Billups scores 13.7 points per game for the Denver Nuggets, starting what may be a very prolific NBA career.
Billups left college after his sophomore season.
these guys depend on their athletic ability — something an accident can take away.
So if the NBA is calling your house, take my advice. Go as soon as possible.

NHL, fans bid fond farewell to Great One in final game
NEW YORK — Wayne Gretzky, as classy as ever in his final game, bid a tearful farewell yesterday to adoring fans and teammates — and took with him forever his famed No. 99.
The Associated Press
During a rousing celebration filled with chants, ovations and rhythmic clapping.
Gretzky was told by NHL commissioner Gary Bettman that no one in the league will wear the number again.
that was the first of several times Gretzky became teary. It happened again when his father, Walter, was driven to center ice in a new black Mercedes presented to Gretzky as a parting gift.
F. WILLIAMS
"I feel so lucky to be able to play in the NHL," the sport's greatest
Gretzky: Said he made the right decision but will miss the game.
player said. "I've been so fortunate to play with some of the greatest players, against guys I admired so much, like the best player I ever played against Mario Lemieux ... my teammates and, of course, the best player I ever played with, Mark Messier.
"And it would be nothing without family and the great friendships I have developed over the years. I appreciate all the accolades. I tell everyone the greatest place to play is right here in New York."
Gretzky, who announced his retirement Friday, wore a huge grin as friend Bryan Adams sang "O. Canada."
"We're going to miss you, Wayne," Adams ad-libbed late in the song.
The "Star-Spangled Banner," as sung by John Amirante, was altered to include the words "in the land of Wavne Gretzky."
Gretzky, who holds or shares 61 NHL records, set up Brian Leech, John MacLean and Niklas Sundstrom for first-period scoring chances. All failed.
Att the first television timeout, Gordie
Howe — whose records Gretzky regularly broke — appeared in a video, saluting his prodigy.
Another sports king, Michael Jordan, appeared in a second-period video, telling Gretzky, "Your golf game is not going to get better, so don't think that will help. It will probably get worse, because you've got more time."
Moments later, Gretzky set up MacLean for a semi-breakaway, but Barrasso stopped a slap shot. Then he broke in on a 2-on-1 with MacLean, who held the puck too long for a shot.
Finally, the Rangers were able to convert on his magic. On a power play while trailing 1-0, Gretzky passed from the right wing boards to Mathieu Schneider in the slot. He faked a shot and passed to Leeth for a tap-in open-net goal.
That led to a mob scene at the sideboards as his teammates hugged, although Gretzky did not seem very emotional. Of course, he'd done this 2,856 times before in the NHL. But no more. It was the final point.
"I'm devastated I will no longer be a hockey player," he said. "I will miss every part of the game, because I loved every part of the game.
"But I've made the right decision."
But I've made the right choice.
Wincing in embarrassment, something he'd rarely done, might have been appropriate midway through the third period. The scoreboard showed a clip from a television special on which Gretzky sang — sort of — "The Devil Went Down to Georgia." Everyone on both benches watched the video, but they all had the good sense not to laugh.
The first ovation, when Gretzky was introduced by master of ceremonies John Davidson, was accompanied by a three-minute salute that seemed to make the man of the moment most uncomfortable.
Then he skated to the Penguins bench and shared hugs and handshakes with several players as the rhythmic applause continued. He even pointed to the crowd at banners that said "Thanks for the Memories," "Always in Our Hearts: No. 99" and "Gretzky the Greatest Forever."

Tigers outscore Yankees 16-3 in three games
The Associated Press
DETROIT — The 1999 New York Yankees already have matched the '98 Yanks in one category — longest losing streak of the season.
Dave Mlicki won his Detroit debut, and the Tigers completed an improbable three-game sweep by sending the
Yankees
weekend, New York outscored the Tigers 28-5 in overwhelming them in three games at Yankee Stadium.
But Detroit bounced back to outscore the Yankees 16-3, sweeping them in a three-game series at Tiger Stadium for the

Orioles drop Toronto game, continue losing streak
The Associated Press
TORONTO — The Baltimore Orioles keep losing games and players, too.
Cal Ripken, bothered by a bad back, missed his fourth game of the season and Will Clark broke his thumb in the first inning as the slumping Orioles lost to the Toronto Blue Jays 6-0 yesterday.
Ripken, who missed his fourth game of the season, headed to Cleveland following the game to have his alling back examined. Clark returned to Baltimore after breaking his thumb on Willie Greene's grounder.
Despite a $78 million payroll, the second-highest in the major leagues, Baltimore has the poorest record in the American League at 3-9, its worst start since losing a record 21 straight at the start of the 1988 season.
Rookie Roy Halladay (2-0), who came within one out of a no-hitter on the final day of last season, allowed three hits in seven shutout innings to lead Toronto to the three-game sweep.
Halladay, start in place of injured Joey Hamilton, retired his final 10 batters and 14 of his last 16. Peter Munro finished with less relief.

THE STUDENT NEWSPAPER OF THE UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS
Elections commission decides outcome of campaign complaints
By Nadia Mustafa

Kansan staff writer
(USPS 650-640)
After four hours of deliberation last night, the elections commission's hearing board dismissed complaints against the recreation task force and the YOU coalition.
The board decided that it was not in its jurisdiction to rule on a complaint filed by J.D. Jenkins, Nunemaker senator, which was filed Thursday before election results were tabulated.
He claimed that the recreation task force committed several elections code violations, such as leaving pro-recreation center materials unattended in classrooms, writing pro-recreation center slogans on classroom chalkboards, having materials visible from polling sites and posting more than one poster on campus bulletin boards.
Jenkins said that the task force's violations might have influenced the success of the student body referendum for a new $16-million campus recreation center.
"I'm frustrated that this group of people is above the law," he said. "We can debate whether it passed by a large margin because the students want it or because they were misled."
Jenkins said that he would discuss the task force's alleged violations with
Chancellor Robert Hemenway.
In a separate decision, the board ruled that there was not enough evidence to prove that

YOU had created a brochure that claimed Delta Force coalition was "not for greeks."
Partha Mazumdar, graduate senator, filed a complaint yesterday alleging that members of YOU were responsible for a brochure distributed on campus that contained anti-greek quotes from five individuals identified as Delta Force members.
"I'm a monkey's uncle if they didn't do it," he said. "It's more likely to be
someone who has a vested interest in YOU winning the election."
Mazumdar said that the brochure, which was released last Wednesday, was libelous and might have had an effect on the outcome of the elections. He said that Delta Force did not have time to respond to the brochure's false information.
"If we lose in a fair fight, we lose," Mazumda said. "But if we lose in this way, it's not fair."
At the hearing, Scott Kaiser, student body vice president and recreation task force chairman, dropped the complaint against Delta Force that the coalition was distributing filers with allegedly misleading information about the task force's proposal for a new $16-million campus recreation center.
Also last night, Liz Wristen, Leawood junior and Sigma Kappa resident, dropped a complaint against YOU that coalition supporters had harassed her

Nick Owings and Enjoli Dixon, former YOU candidates for architecture and urban design senators, and Randy Foster, YOU fine arts senator-elect, were each fined $5 for distributing food on campus without the permission of the University Events Committee.
- Sonya Mohseni, YOU engineering senator-elect, and Becca Synhorst, YOU Nunemaker senator-elect, were each fined $10 for standing with campaign attire within 100 feet of polling sites.
- Mazumdar said that YOU was fined $35 for exceeding the coalition's $1,500 campaign spending limit. Other deliberations regarding YOU's spending limits are still under way.

Young Democrats talk with Moore
Kansas congressman outlines goals, describes first days in Washington
By Chris Hopkins chopkins@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
Dennis Moore, D-Kan., answered questions from the KU Young Democrats yesterday about the trials and tribulations he has faced as a freshman in Congress.
Moore told about 18 students that during the first day of his orientation, he saw the Lincoln Bedroom and met President Bill Clinton, former Speaker Newt Gingrich, R-Ga., and Dick Arney, R-Texas.
Arney recognized Moore as the candidate who beat incumbent Republican Vince Snowbarger and greeted him with a nudge on the jaw.
Rep. Dennis Moore speaks at the Centennial Room in the Kansas Union. Moore spoke and answered questions from the KU Young Democrats for about one hour yesterday. Photo by Augustus Anthony Pizzach/KANSAN
"He said 'You took out one of my guys,' and said 'I sure did', and I got the impression that Dick would have liked to have hit me harder than he did." Moore said.
Moore said another memory from the first few months of his first year in Congress was a trip to Selma, Ala., with 18 other members of Congress.
The visit was to commemorate Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr.'s march from Montgomery, Ala., to Selma and was led by John Lewis, D-Ga., who went on the original march and received a concussion from the police.
He later went to the 1668 Democratic Convention, known for the riots which broke out, despite similar warnings from his father.
Moore said that he had the chance to go on the original march but chose not to because his father warned him that he would get in trouble.
Moore also outlined his plans and goals for the rest of his term, which included saving Social Security, helping education and campaign finance reform.
"I didn't get in much trouble, at least not that he found out about." Moore said.
One point Moore emphasized was that the budget surplus wasn't a true surplus and that any money saved should go to either Social Security or to cutting down the national deficit.

Fake licensing equipment found in KU fraternity
By Katie Burford
kburford@kansan.com
kburford staff writer
Equipment for manufacturing false driver's licenses was confiscated by police early Sunday morning from the Phi Kappa Tau fraternity house, 1100 Indiana St., Sgt. George Wheeler of the Lawrence Police Department said.
The information police received led them to the Phi Kappa Tau house, where they found equipment, including a laminating machine, laminating paper and photo paper. Police also recovered at least a dozen partially completed driver's licenses.
Police began their investigation after questioning an individual who was caught with a false driver's license at 11:50 p.m. April 1 at the Jayhawk Cafe, 1340 Ohio St., during a routine bar check. Wheeler said.
No arrests have been made, but Wheeler said that police had a suspect.
"We have a list of names," Wheeler said. "We will be interviewing those people."
Kelsy Simcox, president of Phi Kappa Tan, said
ΦKT
that he wasn't sure what had happened.
"We're still trying to get the whole picture," he said. "But action will definitely be taken."
Wheeler said that the people whose names were on the driver's licenses that police found also could face charges.
Bill Nelson, director of greek programs, said that he would have to wait until he had more information to say if Phi Kappa Tau would experience consequences through the school.
Simcox said that the fraternity's national chapter had been informed about the incident.
"We need to do some fact finding and looking into the situation," he said. "For me to make comment at this point, would be inappropriate."
"We're still in early stages of this investigation," he said. "We're trying to identify all the players and what laws may have been broken."
This is the second time this semester that a fraternity house has been investigated by police for manufacturing false driver's licenses. Laminating supplies, computer equipment, glossy computer paper and Polaroid photographs were found Jan. 15 at a room in the Alpha Tau Omega fraternity house.
Police were originally called to the house because of a break in that had occurred during winter break. While looking through the house, the police officer noticed several Kansas driver's licenses that appeared to be false and equipment for making them.
The Lawrence Police Department investigated the case and sent the report to the Douglas County District Attorney's office, where it is currently being reviewed for potential prosecution.

Proposed plan would sacrifice lone bike lane
By Jennifer Roush
jroush@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Officials in the KU housing and parking departments are considering a proposal that would increase the number of parking spaces for scholarship hall residents by eliminating the only Lawrence bike lane.
Donna Hultine, assistant director of the parking department, said that administrators hoped to have a solution to the scholarship hall parking shortfall by Fall 1999, when the second Amini Hall is scheduled to open. The scholarship hall parking lots now have 246 spaces available, but 274 permits were sold.
Don Kearns, director of the parking department, said that when he spoke with residents of Battenfeld Scholarship Hall April 12, he discussed a proposal to eliminate the bike lane on Louisiana Street
between 13th and 14th streets.
He said that once the bike lane was removed, the area would be converted to allow parallel parking. Between 30 and 35 new spaces would be created.
Ken Stoner, director of the Department of Student Housing, said that the proposal was nothing new. In fact, it has been considered periodically since 1991, when the City of Lawrence gave jurisdiction over that section of Louisiana Street to the University.
Jim Long, assistant provost of planning and facilities management, said that this proposal was one of several being considered.
"Options are being looked at to give the best results given the space available." he said.
Long also said that research needed to be done to make

A 20-year-old Lawrence man was arrested after police were called to his house and found a bite mark on the arm of his 7-month-old infant at 10 p.m. Friday in the 1100 block of Connecticut Street, said Sgt. George Wheeler of the Lawrence Police Department.
The child was examined by medical personnel but was not taken to the hospital. Wheeler said that a report of the injury would be sent to the Department of Social and Rehabilitation Services for follow-up.

KU student rolls car into KU safety office's car
A car belonging to the KU Public Safety Office was stuck when a car driven by a KU student rolled into it at 12:47 a.m. Saturday at Constant Avenue and Inving Hill Road, the KU Public Safety Office said.
The student was stopped because the vehicle she was driving didn't have its headlights on.
According to the police report, the student told police that she was driving the car, which had a standard shift transmission, because the passenger was intoxicated.
Because she was unfamiliar with the car she hadn't realized that the car wasn't in park when she stopped, and by the time she realized it, the impact already had occurred.
The cars received minor damage. The driver was not found to be intoxicated.

amounts of toxic chemicals exist in the air to increase residents' risk of getting cancer.
For instance, the air in Wichita contains a mixture of 14 toxic chemicals, according to the EPA report. All are known or suspected of causing cancer, ranging from leukemia to breast cancer.
EPA says Kansas air is not completely safe
WICHITA — A controversial new study by the Environmental Protection Agency suggests that none of the air Kansans breathe is 100 percent safe.
Most of the chemicals are estimated to be present at several times the benchmark levels or the levels suspected of causing one additional case of cancer for every one million people exposed.
But some are questioning the study's validity and assertions that enough
Kansas is typical, as the EPA estimates at least 148 toxic chemicals — barely regulated and rarely monitored — exist in each of the nation's 60,803 census tracts.
But because the estimates are based on computer models and not actual tests of the air, state environmental officials are challenging the study's fairness.
STATE
Environmentalists argue that tests taken in the cities that do monitor the air for toxic chemicals show that the models are fairly accurate.
The EPA has not widely released the information, and The Wichita Eagle obtained the results for Kansas' 684 census tracts only after making a Freedom of Information Act request. A census tract contains roughly 4,000 to 5,000 people.
The EPA's study should cause concern but not panic, says Jack Brown, director of environmental health for the Wichita/Sedgwick County Department of Community Health.

Fires blaze in Everglades near Indian reservation
MIAMI — Smoke turned daylight to darkness yesterday near a fire in the Everglades that has charred about 120,000 acres, prompting authorities to warn some people with respiratory problems to stay indoors.
The smoke blanketed south Florida's main east-west highway, Interstate 75, and forced authorities to keep about 60 miles of it closed. The road, known as Alligator Alley, could be closed for days.
Firefighters had hoped the Miami Canal, which runs about 70 miles from Lake Okeechobee to Miami, would serve as a barrier to keep the flames from advancing farther. But the blaze jumped the canal yesterday and was advancing toward the Miccosukee Indian Reservation. No evacuates were ordered.
Firefighters were trying to keep the flames back at an airboat trail that offers a watery break in the dry sawgrass, said David Stull, an operations specialist with the state Division of Forestry.

Social Security issues, deficit primary goals

"Right now, 14 cents of every tax dollar is used to pay interest on the national deficit," Moore said.
He said that his party members would try to treat Republicans better than Democrats had been treated when in the minority.
Moore said that he and the Congressional Democrats firmly believed that they would win a majority in the next election.
Phil Stevenson, president of the KU Young Democrats, said that it always was good to hear what the congressman had to say.
"It helps us to be better informed and to keep our members better informed." he said.
Jack Martin, Lawrence junior, said that he liked Moore's question-andanswer approach.
"It's nice to just be able to be talked to rather than talked at." he said.
Moore returned to Washington, D.C., this morning to go back to work after Congress' two week break, during which he also visited a KU communications class and held an education forum at Central Junior High School, 1400 Massachusetts St.

City Commission supports citywide bus system; Goal may take time to achieve
By Heather Woodward
hwoodward@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
The road to creating and financing a citywide public transportation system is going to be a long one.
"Obviously, the city is very excited about working with us, but it's just going to take time. It's going to be a slow process because capital expenditures are expensive."
Last week, KU students voted 3.714 to 340 in favor of cooperation between the city of Lawrence and the University of Kansas to construct a system, and, on April 6, local residents voted for three new commissioners who all promised quick action regarding public transportation.
All that is missing now is a plan.
Mayor Erv Hodges said that the overwhelming student support was of interest to city officials but that there was no way to use student fees for a citywide system.
Nicole Skalla, transportation coordinator and College of Liberal Arts and Sciences senator-elect, said Senate would take questions about use of student fees to the administration.
"From what I understand, student fees cannot be used for anyone but students," Hodges said. "We're going to be looking for some way for the student system and the city system to be combined and coordinated."
Nicole Skalla Transportation coordinator
"We need administration support for the change in the status of student fees," Skalla said. "The fees have to be used only for the purpose for which they are collected. If we change the status, then we could use the student fee money."
Mary Kukankos, Chicago freshman, said she would benefit from a citywide bus system because she
did not have a car. "I would be in favor of using student fees, depending on how much it was," Kukankos said. "A bus system would let you go to more places and create easier transportation for people who don't have cars."
Skala said that there was no legal precedent regarding student fees. That means Senate has to get the administration's support for the use of student fees before lobbying the Board of Regents and the state Legislature.
Hodges said he anticipated that the transportation system would be important in the commission's May 6 goal-setting session.
An ideal University and city bus system would offer transfer points between city and KU stops to avoid duplicate routes, Hodges said.
"Of course, a pass transfer would be ideal," Hodges said. "But then it comes down to whether there's going to be a transfer of funds from the school to us."
Compllying with the American Disabilities Act is one hurdle that the city faces that the school does not. Because KU on Wheels is financed completely by student fees,
it does not have to comply with the act.
If city and University buses were coordinated, Hodges said KU buses' noncompliance with the law could present a problem if federal money was used for the city bus system.
Skala said she did not think a comprehensive citywide system would be in place for at least five years.
"Obviously, the city is very excited about working with us, but it's just going to take time." Skalla said. "It's going to be a slow process because capital expenditures are expensive."
Another issue yet to be resolved is whether the city would contract with Lawrence Bus Company, which provides the buses for KU on Wheels.
"If we use federal grant money for operating funds, then to properly use that money we must have competitive bids," Hodges said. "That is a question that will have to be answered down the line."
Skalla said that if the city contracts the citywide system with a competing bus company, KU on Wheels might consider alternatives as well.

David Freeman, leader of the scholarship hall parking task force, said that his group had been talking with administrators about the scholarship hall parking situation since mid-March.
Paving lot adds parking spaces
sure that it was legal for the University to remove the bike lane.
Continued from page 1A
Freeman, Hutchinson senior, said he was happy to hear about the new parking proposal.
"I think it's a wonderful idea," he said. "Everyone involved in and around it thinks it's wonderful."
Kearns said that gravel lot on the corner of 13th and Louisiana streets would be paved. The lot now can accommodate 30 cars but usually does not, he said. Once the lot is paved and marked, there will be spaces for 38 cars.
fight for parking spaces each day are particularly concerned with the proposals. Many think that removing the bike lane is a good idea.
"My friends and I sit out on the porch, and we rarely if ever see anyone use the bike lanes," said Lisa Hudson. St. Louis junior and Douthart Hall resident.
Luke Pfannenstiel, Hutchinson junior and Stephenson Hall resident, agreed with Hudson.
"From what I've seen, people don't use the bike lane," he said. "If it's possible, it would be a good idea."
Not everyone is so enthusiastic about the idea.
Mike Schindler, Kansas City, Mo., senior and Battenfeld Hall resident, said that he would not be in favor of removing the bike lane.

Online enrollment may be delayed
Continued from page 1A
they cared about and that the results of the poll led to the coalition's platform. Although online enrollment was a primary student concern, the coalition didn't run on it.
He said that YOU didn't make it a platform issue because they didn't know what could be done about it.
This year's Senate had pushed for a deadline to be set for the completion of the online enrollment center, but its efforts have just recently born fruit
"There's just too many variables. We're replacing six major student administration systems."
Rich Morrell, University registrar,
said that the University of Kansas
had been working hard on online
enrollment but that the shift in computer systems entailed too much for time restrictions.
"I don't think it's reasonable to set hard, fast deadlines on the implementation of this system," he said.
Morrell said that what most students didn't realize was that this work was replacing not only the enrollment system but also financial aid, admissions and other large databases — some of which had been in place for more than 20 years.
"That plan will be revised and reviewed every 90 days," Morrell said.
Maxwell said that he would continue to apply pressure on the issue and that he would try to make sure that the schedule wouldn't get delayed further. But he said that he wouldn't demand completion by 2001.
He said that the Fall 2001 deadline was by no means final.
"Id love to make that promise, but it would be a false promise," he said.
Maxwell said that another issue YOU campaigned on was reworking the University's course-retake policy.
Currently, if a KU student takes the same class twice, his or her grades for both classes are averaged together.
"In schools from Harvard all the way down to Johnson County, it doesn't work that way," Maxwell said.
He said most other colleges let the second grade replace the first one and that this difference put KU students at a competitive disadvantage.
Maxwell said that the ultimate role of Student Senate was to act as a watchdog for the interests of students but that the watchdog would be toothless if Senate didn't develop key allies within the administration.
"Standing alone, the president and the Student Senate are going to wave their fist in the air, then get patted on the head and sent home," he said.

'Bad boys' e-mail is defamatory to greek students'reputations
An e-mail circulating throughout campus condemns various "Bad, bad, bad boys" from the University of Kansas and the University of Iowa. The e-mail contains the name, greek affiliation and transgression of the person in question. The receiver can add information to the list and send it on.
Some of the transgressions are minor. But it is not funny. Many of the accusations are damaging, often accusing them of sexual assault. This is not a light-hearted e-mail.
Not only does it attempt to embarrass the males in question, it also is libelous. People who send
Students shouldn't forward libelous e-mail that accuses men of sexual wrongs.
it along are contributing to its publication, increasing their own culpability. The men in question are not public figures, and they are being defamed in a publication. This constitutes libel, plain and simple. Anyone who has taken even a high school journalism course has learned this.
Accusations are dangerous. Any person who is bitter can accuse with few repercussions. There is
no guarantee that there is any truth in the e-mail, and people should keep that in mind before they add to it and send it along.
Some probably think that an e-mail such as this would warn girls about potentially dangerous men. Be that as it may, a mass e-mail naming names is not the answer to the prevention of sexual assault.
If you get this e-mail, read it if you like. Formulate your own opinions on the matter and the people in question. After that, delete it and do not send it any further. It is libelous and the people involved may not have the ability to defend themselves. It simply is not fair.

Caution during road work saves lives
Warmer weather has brought the return of road construction to Kansas highways.
Students and other travelers should take extra caution and be prepared for delays, which are necessary to maintain the roads.
Driver inattentiveness and impatience are dangerous to both road construction workers and drivers. Last year, the Kansas Department of Transportation reported eight fatalities in work zones due to carelessness.
KDOT asks motorist to consider what orange road construction signs mean. Instead of viewing the orange signs as a nuisance, drivers need to recognize these signs as a request to increase alertness and
Kansas highways speckled with construction during warming spring days.
protect the lives of road workers. In addition to following the speed limit in work zones, drivers have a responsibility to watch for the workers who are concentrating on keeping the roads suitable for travel.
The recent trend of allowing traffic to travel through work zones instead of taking detours has saved time for travelers but also has made the road construction job more dangerous.
Drivers should be thankful and remind themselves that driving the same route slower is better than taking a detour.
travelers must keep in mind the likelihood that spring road construction will slow them down. They should plan ahead by allowing extra travel time or finding an alternate route.
All motorists should make eliminating work zone fatalities a goal this year when they set out for their destinations.
Families are depending on you to help protect the lives of their fathers, mothers, sons and daughters. So slow down and proceed with caution when you see orange road construction signs.

Perspective
I have been wanting to write about Kosovo, but it has been overwhelming trying to narrow so many emotions down to just a few. I also wanted to reflect on a feeling that some of you might also have. So
Past atrocities repeated during Kosovo conflict
you might also have. So where do I start?
The past is always a good place to start. I went to Washington, D.C., for spring break. On the day that the United States, started bombing Kosovo, I was standing in front of the White House getting my picture taken. I was clueless. A few hours later, I found myself in the Holocaust Museum. There were documentaries in small screening rooms, mock-ups of the ghettos — the last stop

before the concentration camps — mock-ups of the concentration camps, and audio narratives in which people told their stories.
Of course, it was a very sobering experience. What struck me was that all this happened not too long ago. Just 60-some years ago. I hate to admit to my naivete, but I remember thinking,
"Thank God that mankind has progressed to where this could not happen again."
Wrong. Guess again. My geography-major roommate has informed me that it is happening again, and it has happened other times in recent history, like in Rwanda.
Genocide. That is when a whole group of people decides that another whole group of people doesn't deserve the gift of life. Or that a whole group of people can't live where they want to. Total intolerance. Absolute unacceptance. No mercy.
I won't name names, but I have a professor that suggested the possibility that the only reason we don't have genocide (or do we?) in the United States is that our democracy is so strong that it won't allow it. In other words, we still have the propensity to adapt such an intolerant attitude. For an optimist like me, that was quite a low blow. I have to admit, that without my faith in God, I would be really down about the future because I can't see where people have made any progress.
I have heard about atheists who say that if there were a God, he wouldn't allow these terrible things to happen. Maybe if we didn't know about a loving God, we wouldn't recognize all the hate. We wouldn't know these things were so terrible.
We can philosopize all we want, but it won't change anything. Here I am in Lawrence, writing my little column about diversity, when a lot of us can't grasp the magnitude of hate that exists in the world.
So, what's the use? How can we possibly make a dent in it all? These are the questions and the emotions that I have had in the past few weeks. My goal has been to encourage the KU population to be more loving, more tolerant, so that when you leave here and encounter hatred and bias, you'll recognize it for what it is, and not allow it to find a home in your hearts.
Do we quit trying? Do we say the problem is just to big? No. We have to keep on trying. Maybe you and I can't change the whole world, but we can change our world. I think there is a song that says, "Lord, let there be peace, and let it begin with me."

Spectator misunderstands production's use of props
Last month, The University Daily Kansan published a column by student Aaron Crim, an Overland Park senior in sculpture, about the KU Theatre for Young People's
production of *Ramona Quimby*, written by Len Jenkin and based on Beverly Cleary's books. Crim said he was "distressed" and "absolutely floored" by the presence of the word "Coke"
— as in "Coca-Cola" — in the script, as well as four Coke cups appearing on stage for a total of 90 seconds of the 65-minute show. The column claimed that Coke was the only copyrighted name to appear anywhere in the performance.

In fact, Crim either missed or forgot that other copyrighted words were also named in Jenkin's script: Cover-Girl lipstick, Clearasil, Fig Newtons, Oreos, Ding-Dongs, Toys R U K, Sandy Kitchen, Disneyland, Mack truck, Count Choculca, Teen Beat magazine, Hamburger Helper and Chevrolet.
The column recalled only one copyrighted name from this list, perhaps because the other names had no visual logos attached to the dialogue. Many in the Quimby cast agree with the column's point that "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."
But worse, the column unjustly challenges the integrity of the University Theatre by accusing this production of advertising the University's economic collusion with Cake all "propoganda" — which is absolutely untrue, totally absurd and quite laughable to some of us.
quite magnitude to No, the prop room was not "chock-full of bright red cups that bore the name Coke on the side." We at the University Theatre obtained four, readily available cups from the Murphy Hall snack bar, just as we usually scrounge around for free props within our limited budgets.
Did anyone ever consider that perhaps the playwright chose to repeat the word "Coke" in his script to accentuate a joke for aesthetic reasons? It makes the comedy crisper when the Quimbysh声, "Cheesewhopper. Coke!" "Chiliwhopper. Coke!" "Veggiewhopper. Coke!" followed by Ramona's "Doublewhopper, fries and a chocolate shake!" It just wouldn't have flowed the same if Jenkins — or University Theatre — had changed it to "Cheesewhopper, soda!" The one syllable "Coke" contrasts more against the longer order Ramona gives. This word choice certainly had more to do with the aesthetic sound of the lines
than with "advertising" a soft drink
The director of this production is extremely upset by the University's selling out to and monopolizing of Coke on campus. She and the designers went out of their way to ensure that the "Whopper-burger" restaurant — Cleary's word choice — would not "sell" any commercial burgers.
we designed a construction-site environment — because the character Ramona loves huge trucks — with a huge burger drop, truck-tire table and orange booth. How is it that "red cups stuck out like a neon jacket in the forest" against this bright orange decor? If the University's corporate deal with Coke is already seared into the brain as preshow baggage, then Coke is what one will remember most from this production. If one focuses on the production in its entirety, as most child and adult audiences did, then one will remember far more important family aspects of Cleary's story — such as the fact that Mr. Quimby's unemployment strained the family's budget.
The column argues its opinions to the point of absurdity. Maybe we should all feel terrified, now that our vile corruptions and brainwashing propaganda have been exposed. We may never be able to hang a giant "Holiday Imm" sign on our sets (i.e., as called for in "The Batting Cage" script last October) to acquire the "obvious profits" we receive from the companies blatantly endorsed.
Humor aside, the fact remains that the Quimbs were in no way "selling Coke" — or any other product — onstage by the mere mention of the word and the mere use of its cups. We assure you that the University Theatre never gains any financial help, economic bliss and certainly no generating revenue from Coke's profits.
As a future sculptor, Crim himself probably will face similarly absurd misunderstandings and false accusations about his aesthetic choices. Most likely, he may prefer to discuss his artistic reasons with his accusers first before having the moral integrity of his art slammed in public.
A simple phone call to the play's director, cast members or designers would have cleared up the column's raging dissatisfaction with artistic choices. Instead, Crim based his opinions more on person feelings and memory lapses — than on factual and artistic evidence about how live theater works in our inescapably commercialized world.
See you at the movies, if not at the next "commercial-free" University Theatre production. And may aesthetic feelings and controversial opinions concerning live theater never cease.

America 'clueless' about Kosovo
I just read the April 7 column by Jenny Oakson about being clueless about international affairs, especially Kosovo. I think all of us have been clueless about Kosovo.
Within the past couple of days, some background information has come to my attention about events in Kosovo over the past 10 years. The author, Stephen Zunes, an assistant professor of politics at the University of San Francisco, states in a recent
newsletter for the Manhattan Alliance for Peace and Justice that the Kosovars had carried on a nonviolent struggle.
"The Serbian authorities have ... severely suppressed cultural and political rights ... This suppression has been ongoing since Milosevic revoked Kosovo's autonomy in 1989. Until a year ago, the Kosovars waged their struggle nonviolently, using strikes, boycotts, peaceful demonstrations, and alternative institutions — indeed, it was one of the most widespread, comprehensive and sustained nonviolent cam-

Student Senate seeks applicants
Six non-political positions to be filled for StudEx
By Nadie Mustafa
mmustafa@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Less than a week after elections, Student Senate already is building next year's staff.
Korb Maxwell and Dede Seibel, student body president and vice president-elects, will conduct interviews for Student Senate executive staff positions from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Sunday at the Governors Room in the Kansas Union.
Any students enrolled in six or more hours can apply for the positions of treasurer, assistant treasurer, StudEx chairperson, executive secretary, Student Legislative Awareness Board legislative director and SLAB campus director.
Maxwell said that all StudEx positions were non-political. He said that applicants should have leadership qualities and should be team players.
"The executive staff is supposed to be a close-knit group with a philosophy of working together toward certain things as the leaders of Senate," he said. "I want Senate to function like a professional legislature next year."
Maxwell said that the treasurer and assistant treasurer would pay bills and monitor finances, and the StudEx chairperson would be the "chief of staff" to the student body president and vice president and would ensure accountability within Senate. Also, he said that the StudEx chairperson would be responsible for scheduling, monitoring committees and would be Senate's representative to StudEx.
Maxwell said that the executive secretary would record minutes, maintain other records and facilitate legislation; the legislative director would assist the student body president and serve as students' voice to the state Legislature; and the campus director would represent students at the city level.
The campus director, a position created last year, would be involved in implementing a joint citywide public transportation system between the city of Lawrence and KU on Wheels, he said.
Julie Numrich, StudEx chairwoman, said that after Senate approved the StudEx appointees at a joint session April 28, they would begin work for next year.
Applications are available in the Senate Office at the Organizations and Leadership Center in the Union and are due by 5 p.m. tomorrow.
'Pregnant lady days' affecting Witherspoon
NEW YORK — Reese Witherpoon was having what she called a "pregnant lady day." It was the kind of day when she was likely to cry over anything.
The Associated Press
"Like television commercials make me cry, for like 30 minutes or an hour," she said, as a makeup artist and hair stylist put the finishing touches on the young actress so she could do an interview and a photo session.
The kewpie-doll cure 23-year-old is pregnant with her first child and is experiencing the full range of emotions that often accompanied pregnancy.
She can slip into a down-home "yall" or the girlish verbal tick of "like" at times, but she mostly talked in the straightforward manner of an erudite young woman — a debutante, the daughter of a doctor and professor of nursing in Nashville, Temn., the product of an exclusive all-girls school, a Stanford University English lit major.
Yesterday morning, she was talking about her latest film, Election, and suggested that it didn't neatly fit into the usual silly teen flicks that flooded the market.
And she was right. The main character is a teacher, played by Matthew Broderick, going through a midlife crisis — which mainly manifests in his intense dislike for one student (played by Witherspoon), an overachieving blonde running for class president.
"I think everybody has somebody in their life that they absolutely can't stand. And all your friends like them, and you're just like, 'I don't know why but that person just rubs me the complete wrong way.' "Witherspoon said, citing her own school experience.
"I had a particular girl in junior high that I didn't like. She just drove me nuts. She was always pretty and had lots of
dates and was always putting other people down, surreptitiously, and really rubbed me the wrong way.
"And now she's like wildly successful...
...It's depressing. And here I go, playing pretend for a living."
Not that it's a bad living, she conceded.
Not that it's a bad living, she conceded. Since early last year, she's had a run of notable movies: Twilight, in which she co-starred with Paul Newman, Gene Hackman and Susan Sarandon; Pleasantville, where she played a slut turned bookworm; and Cruel Intentions, an updated Dangerous Liaisons, with her real-life fliance and father of her child, Ryan Phillippe, playing her seducer. She recently finished filming American Psycho, and still in the can is Best Laid Plans.
Her performances have garnered lots of notice in recent months, with magazines putting her on their covers or naming her to their "It List" or "Hot Squad."
But Wittherspoon took all of the up-and-coming-ingene hype in stride.
"I think it's important to have the right perspective about it," she said. "I have an entirely new perception of magazines — which is that people pick it up, flip through a couple of pages, throw it on the floor and never look at it again."
So while it's flattering, you can't rest
Wait, the word in line 4 is "rest".
The word in line 5 is "rest".
The word in line 6 is "rest".
The word in line 7 is "rest".
"You just have to do the work to match the publicity."
Despite the next-big-thing breathlessness of some publications, Witherspoon aimed to be in this business for the long haul; she already has displayed staying power.
She started 16 years ago, at age 7, appearing in local TV commercials for a flower shop owned by neighbors.
"I just had a great time," she said. "I was just so star-struck. And I told my mother that what I wanted to do."

Refugees forced to stay in Kosovo
The Associated Press
BELGRADE. Yugoslavia
Yugoslavia slammed shut the main crossing point for ethnic Albanian refugees fleeing Kosovo, leaving uncertainty yesterday about the fate of the tens of thousands whom aid officials had believed were on their way to the border.
On the diplomatic front, U.N. Secretary-General Kofi Annan scheduled a trip to Moscow next week to discuss the Kosovo conflict. President Clinton and Russian President Boris Yeltsin held a 45-minute telephone conversation on the crisis in the Balkans, their first talks since the air campaign began March 24. Russia opposes the NATO air strikes.
On the 26th day of the bombing, allied warplanes struck a government building in Serbia's second-largest city and a television transmitter in Kosovo. But NATO said its operations were limited by poor weather.
Despite continuing defiance by Yugoslav President Slobodan Milosevic and his military forces in Kosovo, NATO's chief spokesman expressed confidence the strategy will pay off.
"Since when was a dictator defeated in 24 hours?" Jamie Shea said at the
Clinton: Spoke with Yeltsin for the first time since March.
NATO briefing in Brussels, Belgium "It took six years to defeat fascism in the middle of Europe in the 20th century. I think we can take two or three months to defeat President Milosevic."
The bombings aim to force Milosevic to accept a peace plan for Kosovo, a province in Serbia, the main republic in Yugoslavia.
Refugee traffic from Kosovo into Albania, Macedonia and Montenegro slowed to a trickle yesterday. The U.N. refugee agency said the Serbs apparently were turning back the refugees.
It was not immediately clear why the refugee flow out of Kosovo was halted, as it had been periodically in past days. The Yugoslav government made no statement on the matter.
Albanian soldiers swarmed around the Morini border station — the main entry point into Albania — and ordered reporters away. International monitors reported daytime shelling along the border, one day after
Yugoslavia broke off diplomatic relations with Albania.
The majority of Kosovo Albanians
The major who have fled or been forced out of the Serbian province have come to Albania — 365,000 of more than 600,000. Over the weekend, an estimated 40,000 either left Kosovo for neighboring territories or were at its borders, aid officials said.

crossed into Macedonia yesterday said there were many more who had been turned back by Serb police.
FCC could issue licenses to low-tech radio stations
The Associated Press
LAS VEGAS - For five years Stephen Dunier was a radio pirate, pounding the airwaves in Berkeley. Calif., with garage rock music, political documentaries and programs by homeless people. Then the government's airwave police nabbed him, and Dunier's 50-watt FM station went silent.
Dunifer, 47, was operating "Radio Free Berkeley" without a license from the Federal Communications Commission. He knew it was illegal but felt the community needed an alternative voice. "It was a form of electronic civil disobedience," he said.
At a time when hundreds of radio stations nationwide try to operate without licenses—and as technology makes it easier to set up a station—the government is looking at ways to open the airwaves to more voices. The FCC proposed in January issuing very low-power licenses to help churches, schools and other community groups get legally on the air.
Many Republicans and the National Association of Broadcasters, meeting this week in Las Vegas, actively oppose the idea.
"We're very concerned that the FCC proposal may have the effect of legitimizing pirates," the NAB's president, Edward Fritts, said yesterday. The FCC has not decided whether pirates who have refused to shut down would be eligible for the new licenses.
In addition, the NAB believes the stations' signals could interfere with FM stations. Others fear that white-supremacists or other controversial groups could get low-power licenses.
Since 1997, the FCC has tracked down 430 pirate radio stations, ranging in power from 1 watt to 800 watt
"Many of them are just the average citizen wanting to serve their community," said the FCC's top point man on the issue, Richard Lee. "I was totally surprised. I expected — I won't save militants."
A 50-watt station like Dunifer's typically can reach listeners within a radius of about 21/2 miles.
Hillary Clinton takes NYC trip
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Hillary Rodham Clinton, edging closer to running for Senate, opened a campaign-style swing yesterday by declaring, "I love New York," as her
fledgling political operation combed the state for potential campaign workers.
"I'm obviously still considering and exploring and am very interested," Clinton said.

Yet she tried to minimize the political implications of the trip, which included talks about the humanitarian crisis in Kosovo and other traditional

first-lady fare. The White House called the trip an official function, thus U.S. taxpayers picked up the tab.
"This is not an exploratory trip. This is a trip filled with events and occasions, some of which I agreed to do months ago." Clinton told reporters after urging private foundations to help ease the Kosovo refugee crisis.
Her aides, however, conceded the trip had political implications.
"I guess anytime we're up here, it's part of the (exploratory) process," said press secretary Marsha Berry. "She's thinking about this. I don't know when you turn it off and turn it on."
Friends and associates say Clinton appears to be leaning toward a Senate bid, though some believe she will forego the race at the last minute. Their assessments are based on clues from private conversations with her and the full-speed-ahead groundwork being laid by top political alce Harold Ickes.
The former deputy White House chief of staff has begun compiling lists of campaign operatives in the event she takes the plunge. He has secured commitments from some potential staff, said a source close to Clinton.
One longtime associate said Clinton told him two weeks ago that she intended to run but would not finalize her decision until June or July.
Clinton scheduled scores of New York stops yesterday, today and — after returning to Washington on tomorrow again Thursday, from Long Island to Niagara Falls. Yesterday's unusually crowded schedule contained seven stops, including the Columbia College Teachers' College, the Ukrainian Institute, the Jewish Child Care Association and a fund-raiser for Rep. Jerry Nadler, D-N.Y.
Court upholds law banning obscene e-mails
the Associated Press
WASHINGTON — A federal law aimed at limiting e-mail smut does not violate free-speech rights, the Supreme Court ruled yesterday.
That could be bad news for people who like to write dirty online and for the proprietors of annoy.com.
The court's unanimous decision, issued without an opinion, rejected a computer technology company's argument that one part of the Communications Decency Act of 1996 threatens free-speech rights.
The law had been attacked by ApolloMedia Corp., a San Francisco-based firm that developed the annoy.com Web site to let people anonymously communicate their opinions to public officials by using language that some might consider indecent.
The challenged provision of the law makes it a crime to transmit a "communication which is obscene, lewd, lascivious, filthy or indecent with intent to annoy, abuse, threaten or harass another person." The provision applies to all e-mail, even messages sent from one friend or acquaintance to another.
A three-judge federal court upheld the law after interpreting it to ban only obscene material that gets no constitutional protection. The Supreme Court affirmed that ruling.
Not all sexually explicit language and pictures are obscene. Free-speech protections are lost only if the material appeals to prudent interests and depicts sexual conduct in a patently offensive way, and that determination is left to a jury applying contemporary community standards.
William Bennett Turner, ApolloMedia's lawyer, said yesterday's decision "makes you nervous ... to be liable" for some future e-mail content found by some other court elsewhere in the nation to have crossed the line between indecent and obscene.
While ApolloMedia's 1997 lawsuit was pending, the Supreme Court invalidated another provision of the Communications Decency Act. The justices in 1997 struck down Congress' effort to protect children from sexually explicit — but not legally obscene — material.
The invalidated provision had made it a crime to send any "obscene or indecent" material on the Internet knowing that it could be seen by someone under 18.

Robertson signs with USBL team, leaves open NBA options
The Associated Press
SALINA — University of Kansas guard Ryan Robertson has signed to play with the Kansas Cagerz of the United States Basketball League, while keeping his eye on the National Basketball Association.
He signed his contract with the Salina-based team Sunday during halftime of an exhibition game featuring him and other seniors who have just finished their careers at Kansas.
"I'm excited, and I think it's going to
be a good opportunity for me," said Robertson, a 6-foot-5 guard who averaged 12.8 points for the Jayhawks this season. "It's something when you play basketball growing up that you think about—having to get a real job. Hopefully I get to put it off for awher."

Robertson: Will join the team after graduation.
"We're still waiting to find out what the full details are because of our commitment to Ryan academically." Cagerz coach Tom Hughes said. "What we've tried to do is work around his class schedule, his final exam schedule and graduation.
begain play April 30, start a weeklong training camp tomorrow, but Robertson won't join the team until after he finishes school at Kansas and gets his business administration degree next month. He'll begin play May 11 in the second home game against Atlanta.
"Because of that, we knew he would not be available all the time. He'll make the second road trip with us to Raleigh and Tampa Bay. Beyond that, what he does as far as travel will be influenced by his NBA workouts and the combine in Chicago."
Robertson said that flexibility was integral in his decision to sign with the team. Since the league concludes its season by the end of June, playing for the Cagerz won't interfere with Robertson's hopes for catching on with an NBA team.
"We think it's a great opportunity for him to showcase his talents," Hughes said. "Almost every games will have scouts from the NBA, CBA and IBA."
Billy Thomas, the hot-shooting guard who finished his career at Kansas a year ago, will also play for the Cagerz, who have exhibition games in Newton on Friday and McPherson on Saturday.

Chandler returns to field after getting doctor OK

You can find Michael Chandler's name in the lower left-hand corner of the roster page of the spring press guide, under the heading "Injured Ruled out for contact in the spring."
But that's not the way Chandler works.

Of course, if Chandler wasn't all right to play, it would be understand-
BU
At 5 a.m. on Feb. 28, three men knocked on Chandler's apartment door and when he opened the door, they shot him in the groin.
His quick recovery has amazed Kansas coach Terry Allen.
"Isn't Michael Chandler something?" Allen said after Chandler hauled in a touchdown pass in Saturday's scrimage. "He is an inspiration in every sense of the word."
For Chandler, the chance to play at his familiar position of wide receiver during spring drills is the result of imploring team doctors for clearance to play.
"I just begged the doctors enough," Chandler said. "It feels good getting out there and playing again."
Chandler said he considered the football field a welcome break from the problems he encountered in the offseason.
"I worry about all that stuff when I "get home," Chandler said. "I had some tough times after the season, but it's great to get out there, run around and have fun. Everything else doesn't bother me on the field."
On the field, Chandler has been described as a "dependable possession receiver."
Chandler said that description of his game had a hidden meaning.
"It just means you're slow," Chandler said. "Am I slow? It depends on who you ask. We've got some guys that can really run, so compared to them I'm slow."
Allen has a similar assessment of Chandler's physical ability.
"He has limited ability, but he gets

the most out of it, and the guys just rally around him," Allen said. "He's a fun guy to be able to coach."
His ability is a non-issue to Chandler, who ranked third on the team last season with 21 catches for 236 yards and one touchdown. The lone touchdown came against in-state archival Kansas State.
Chandler said the game, unlike his life recently, seemed simple.
Spring Football Notes
"I guess I have enough speed to get open and do what I have to do," Chandler said.
The Jayhawks practice today and tomorrow at 3:20 p.m., and Allen will decide later in the week whether to hold the other practice on Thursday or Friday.

Cries for support of non-basketball sports are by no means new to Kansas. Students doing something about the anathy, however, is.
In an attempt to make "Rock Chalk"响 as loudly at Memorial Stadium as it does in Allen Fieldhouse, a group of nine student leaders have banded together to attack the problem head on.
The group, consisting of the student body vice president, a former Inter-fraternity Council officer, a non-traditional senator, business senator and several other campus leaders have formed the HAWK Club.
The HAWK Club - Helping Athletics Win at Kansas - will serve as the official student booster organization for KU athletics.
"We have an up-and-coming football team, an incredible women's basketball tradition and a strong women's volleyball team. However, outside of Allen Fieldhouse, we as a student population are letting our athletes down," said Michael Henry, founder of the HAWK Club.

"We have a young and dedicated football team with some outstanding athletes," Mullen said. "With all of the changes in the Big 12, they have a real opportunity to surprise some people, and we hope to be the catalyst that builds school spirit around them."
The HAWK Club is based on similar booster organizations at other universities such as North Carolina, Indiana and rival Kansas
State, whose I-CAT Club has experienced tremendous growth in the last few years.
The club founders felt that it was not only a logical next step for Kansas athletics but a necessary addition to an already strong tradition.
when you go to a Kansas State football game or a women's volleyball match at Nebraska, all that you see are seas of school colors in the stands. Unfortunately, all our athletes see is row after row of gray fleece," said Scott Kaiser, student body vice president and vice president for the HAWK Club. "Our goal is not just to raise the spirits of our athletes but also the spirit of the University as a whole."

Kansas' overlooked offensive lineman signs with Carolina Panthers
By Chris Wristen
cwristen@ukans.edu
Kansas sportswriter
While Kansas' focus on this year's NFL draft rested with senior linemen Justin Glasgow and Dan Dercher, one name managed to slip through the cracks.
Following the conclusion of Sunday's draft, senior Michael Lies received a call he'd been hoping for. The Carolina Panthers called and offered him a free agent contract.
"Everybody dreams of being signed by the NFL, but you never really realize it until it happens," Lies said. "You can't get caught up in being in the NFL though, or
you won't be there very long."
Lies accepted.
Although he had hoped to be drafted, Lies was aware that he would most likely have to wait for the free agent signing period and that was fine with him.
Lies, at 6-2 and 300 pounds, played right tackle for the Jayhawks. The Panthers see his talent a little differently, though, and according to Lies, will most likely use him as a guard. He likes this opportunity of earning his place on the team.
"I'd been told I had a 50/50 chance of being drafted, so I kind of expected this." Lies said.
"Personally, I like my chances a lot, but you never can tell," Lies said. "You can never be sure about these things. You've just got

to go in and do what you can."
Glasgow signed his free agent
"I really liked the hon-esty and personal attention they gave me," Dercher said. "（Coach）Bill Walsh called me three times and the offensive line
A. R. P. S.
Lies: Was contacted after the draft by the Panthers.
coaches called me about fifteen times during the draft to talk to me."
Dercher had hoped to be drafted. The 49ers actually had intentions of drafting him and called Dercher, a 6-6, 285-pound offensive tackle, in the fifth round to inform him they were going to draft him. They ended up drafting a defensive player with their final pick.
Although disappointed at first, Dercher said he was probably better off not being draffed and feels he got a better deal as a free agent.
Another aspect of the 48ers that lured him was the opportunity to play right away. Because of salary cap regulations San Francisco is carrying a small squad of tackles and Dercher said he was told he would enter training camp as the second string left tackle.
"My agent called and said I got the most attention he's ever seen a free agent get. San Francisco gave me the highest signing bonus they've ever given a free agent," Dercher said. He would not disclose the amount.
Dercher is excited to have signed his contract and describes having a future in the NFL as a dream come true.
"They said if I came in weighing anywhere over 305 they'd kick my butt." Dercher said.
"When you grow up as a little kid
The aspect of Dercher which the 48ers liked the most was his body size, frame and overall athletic ability.
you want to be a professional football or baseball player," Dercher said. "I have the opportunity to do that and make some money doing it, so it's a dream come true."
Coach Terry Allen was pleased that his players were getting this opportunity and believed free agency was the best thing for them.
"I think they've all got the opportunity to make it," Allen said. "I think it's really beneficial to them to have been free agents rather than being chosen in the seventh round because free agency allows them to pick and choose a team that is in the most need position-wise."

Local coach with most victories may retire
LAWRENCE — Dick Purdy, the state's winningest high school foot-ball coach, is thinking about retirement these days, but he hasn't made a decision, a high school principal said yesterday.
Dick Patterson, Lawrence High School principal, said he talked to Purdy.
"He's thinking about retirement, but he's not prepared to make any decision yet," Patterson said following a report that Purdy was going to announce his retirement vested.

The 37-year-old Johnson, who was kicked out of the 1988 Olympics for steroid use, still must win approval from international track authorities. The decision by arbitrator Graham Mew does not mean Johnson can run again or clear him of the 1993 sanction that he used banned substances, a second offense that brought the lifetime ban.

A Canadian arbitrator said procedural errors in Johnson's 1931 life-tension suspension for drug use could open the door for the spriter's return.
Purdy suffered a heart attack a month after the 1997 season but returned to coach the Lions to a 5-5 record in 1998.
He did not return a phone message to The Associated Press yesterday.
"I'm very happy, but I don't have time to jump around and celebrate," Johnson said. "I still can't compete, and we still have some things to do."
Johnson was stripped of the 100-meter gold medal and thrown out of the Seoul Games in the biggest drug bust in Olympic history.
Return to track possible for banned Johnson
TORONTO — Ben Johnson moved a step closer to a return to track yesterday when a legal review said he had grounds to appeal his lifetime ban for doping.
The ruling said Athletics Canada, the national governing body of track and field, had inadvertently failed to comply with the International Amateur Athletics Federation rules and, in
particular, that it misinformed Johnson as to the type of hearing he was entitled to following the IAAF doping commission's decision.
it also said that the IAAF, track's worldwide ruling body, had not adequately informed Johnson of procedural options.
Mew said Johnson would refrain from attempting to compete in Canada until he applied for reinstatement to the IAAF.

Commentary
Low game attendance can be changed easily
To the Kansas Athletics Department:
You are falling to do anything about the
falling attendance at football games.
The Jayhawks have the lowest attendance in the Big 12 Conference.
And don't expect it to get better when the new season begins in August.
Yes, the team is working hard in spring drills, and it looks good. But even if Kansas wins its first five games and it looks like the Jayhawks will go to a bowl game, the 50,250 Memorial Stadium seats will not fill.
It doesn't matter that this team will play
Notre Dame. Win or lose, that game will not automatically create renewed interest in the program.
The new stadium is great, but a new building does not bring people to games.
Only two things will increase attendance. One is a consistently winning program. That will happen under coach Terry Allen, but it will take a few years.
Spencer Duncan
sports@kansan.com
Of course not every football game can be a sellout. But sinking attendance means something is wrong.
So in the meantime, you must do something to get people in Memorial Stadium. The next four years you have failed
Last year's game against Colorado on ABC was embarrassing. When the cameras panned out, the stadium was empty. What kind of message does that send to recruits and football fans sitting at home watching the nationally? It says that no one cares about Kansas football.
With the season just months away, this is the time to put together plans to bring in the fans.
Some suggestions;
Stop raising ticket prices. You may have to pay for the new stadium, but enough is enough. The prices constantly are changing. Promise fans that prices will not rise for at least the next three years, if not longer. And stick to the promise.
- Give away lots of tickets to charities and organizations. There are a lot of people who love Kansas football but are unable to attend games because they cannot afford a ticket. For example, there are always children's charities, such as Big Brothers/Big Sisters of Douglas County, that want to send children to games. You do give out tickets on occasion, but do it more.
Discounts. There is no reason there are not huge discounts for families, low-income individuals and large groups.
Most of these people, thanks to $25 to $40 individual ticket prices, cannot afford tickets. It's at least $100 for a family of four to go to a game. That's unreasonable. If you don't believe me, just look at the poor attendance as evidence.
These prices are shutting out some of the strongest supporters of the team. The high prices are keeping young children from attending games. Those children could be future fans and contributors. Instead, they are losing interest because they never experience games in person.
- Update your Web site. It is bad enough that you do not sell tickets through the web. Even worse is that one of the phone numbers you give for information still has the 913 prefix on it, which no longer is used.
- Let students in for free during certain games. It is easy to tell which games will be low draws. Open the gates to anyone with a valid KUID. Students are the backbone of the institution and the best fans.
I have heard the argument within the department: "We can't make money this way."
Bull.
Those seats are empty right now. So if the option is an empty seat or selling it for $10, then making that $10 is better. Besides, concessions are where money is made. When people get in cheap, they spend money on food and drink.
People are not attending games. That lack of support hurts the team and embarrases Kansas in front of the rest of the Big 12. And with no people in the stands, Memorial Stadium is not an intimidating place to play.
It is time for the Athletics Department to try some new things. Otherwise, the situation is only going to get worse.

Chiefs sign Emporia State back
The Associated Press.
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Brian Shay, the undersized running back from a Division II school who smashed NCAA rushing records, but was snubbed in the college draft, is getting a chance to play for his home town team.
The Kansas City Chiefs, whose stadium is just 45 minutes north of Shay's home in Paola announced Monday that they had signed the three-time Division II All-American as a rookie free agent.
Standing a shade taller than 5 feet 8 inches, weighing 215 and
"I've grown up watching the Chiefs and hopefully now I can make a roster and wear the uniform," said Shay, who rushed for 6,958 yards in four years at Emporia State.
CHIEFS
without great speed or quickness. Shay was shunned as NFL clubs drafted a total of 253 players. Despite owning so many rushing records, the problem, he said, was a combination of his size and the small-college competition he played against.
But Shay is confident that he will make it in the NFL.
"I definitely think so. If I'm given the opportunity, I believe that I can," he said.
"And I'm getting the opportunity so I think it's just going to be the same — hard work, put the effort into it and you'll get the results."
Shay averaged 6.9 yards per carry for Emporia State with 81
touchdowns. He also excelled in special teams, totaling 9,301 all-purpose yards, including 1,207 punt-return yards. As a senior, he rushed for 2,265 yards and 29 touchdowns.
say said that getting snubbed in all seven rounds of the draft was disappointing.
"Toward the end of the fifth round, my parents and a few close friends of the family were watching, and I went upstairs away from the TV," he said. "I was playing solitaire. I figured they would yell if they saw something. But they didn't, I was frustrated. But when I went to bed last night, I felt good about my decision."
He said that he got free-agent inquiries from about 10 teams, including Washington, Tennessee and Dallas, and that he
narrowed his decision down to the Chiefs and Redskins.
But Shay said it was easy to go with the team he had followed all his life.
"I just kind of went with an instinct. Close to home, great organization," he said.
Shay, however, will have to compete against other running backs, including an NFL veteran and a second-round pick in this year's draft to earn a spot on the Chiefs roster.
The Chiefs drafted Mike Cloud of Boston College with their second-round choice and will open training camp with Bam Morris as the top runner on the depth chart.
"I know they drafted a running back, and they've got some backs in camp," he said. "Just as much of an opportunity here as anywhere else is the way I saw it."
Saints put turnaround hopes on Williams
The Associated Press
NEW ORLEANS — After facing the fans and media on draft day, next weekend's New Orleans Saints minicamp should be a breeze for Ricky Williams.
"I think the first thing I need to do is go in there and show the veterans that I'm going to go out there and work as hard as they do," Williams said. "Show them that I'm not going to be just an overpaid rookie, but I'm going to be a football player."
Williams was more modest.
One thing Williams doesn't have to do is convince his coach.
hare to is convince his coach.
Coach Mike Ditka donned
shoulder-length dread locks to
welcome Williams to the Saints
on Sunday. And he told about
4,000 fans — most of whom wore
"We got Ricky" T-shirts,
chanted, screamed for autographs and snapped pictures — that Williams was the key to getting to the Super Bowl.
Williams was more modest.
"I wouldn't say I'm a savior," he said. "Life's a puzzle, and hopefully, I can be the missing piece to that puzzle."
New Orleans, which hasn't
had a winning record in six years or a 1,000-yard rusher in a decade, traded away every pick after the first one this year, and its first- and third-round picks next year to get the Heisman Trophy winner.
"We drafted him because he is a great football player," Ditka said. "He's the first marquee player this organization has had in a long time."
Ditka, who joked he'd had his hair restyled Sunday morning to celebrate getting the big back, compared Williams to Walter Payton, the Hall of Fame back who carried the Chicago Bears and Ditka to glory in the 1980s.
Williams said that was an exagregation and insisted that he just played hard and loved doing it.
"I just run the ball and try to get to the end zone, and whatever happens in between is just pretty much all instinct," he said.
New Orleans has back-to-back 6-10 records under Ditka. Last year, the offense was ranked 28th in the NFL — dead last in vards rushing.
Getting Williams will change that. Saints officials believe.
"This is one player who's going to make our football team a lot better on offense," said general manager Bill Kuharich. "It's an awful lot of pressure to say that one player can get us to the Super Bowl. But if he can carry us on his back, God bless him. But I'm not putting undue pressure on h i m , " Kuharich said.
JOHN OYELE
Actually, the pick puts enormous pressure on everyone in the organization.
Dit k a promised when he took the job
Williams: The Saints are counting on him to spark the offense.
that he would only stay three years if he could not turn the team into a winner. Now, with the sacrifice of eight potential players over two years, he's betting everything on Williams sparking a turnaround in the worst offense in the league.
"No excuses now," said quarterback Billy Joe Go on to the playoffs, or every one of us is going to be finding a new job next year."
Williams' association with rapper Master P and No Limit Sports, which represents him, was reportedly one reason the Indianapolis Colts passed on him with the fourth pick. But the Saints and Williams' agent, Leland Hardy, said they expected no problem working out a contract.
"Talk about his signability is of non-interest to me because all parties here are going into negotiations with a common interest," Hardy said. "And that is to get Ricky Williams signed and in camp on time and try to get this football team to the playoffs and the Super Bowl as soon as possible."
Based on what Chicago Bears rookie running back Curtis Ennis received in the No. 5 slot last year, Williams would get a five- or six-year contract worth about $2 million per season. The deal will include a signing bonus in the range of $7.5 million.

Kenyan wins Boston Marathon
African country dominates race for nine years
BOSTON — Kenya's men added yet another victory to their decade of dominance at the Boston Marathon, and Ethiopia's Fatuma Roba kept her own formidable streak alive, too.
Joseph Chebet, a runner-up in his previous three marathons, ended his string of second-place finishes by winning yesterday's race in 2 hours, 9 minutes, 52 seconds.
The Associated Press
Chebet became the ninth-straight Kenyan champion, equaling the race record set by U.S. runners between 1916-25 at a time when few foreigners entered the race. There was no individual competition in 1918, only a team race.
The smooth-gliding Roba, the 1996 Olympic gold medalist, eased to victory at 2:23:25, matching the three consecutive titles won by Germany's Uta Pippig from 1994-96. They are the only two to win three in a row since women officially became part of the race in 1994.
"Everybody in the world is trying to catch the Kenyans, but they can't." Chebet said.
While Chebet and Roba overwhelmed their opposition, two crowd favorites - defending champion Moses Tanuel of Kenya and
four-time champion Bill Rodgers— did not finish.
Tanui, also the champion in the race's centennial year in 1996, apparently was bothered by leg cramps and dropped out near the 23-mile mark. Rodgers, seeking to break the course record for over-50 by an American, dropped out shortly before the 21-mile mark because of dehydration.
Another popular New Englander, Lynn Jennings, was 12 among the women in her first official marathon at 2:38:37.
"I can run the race, but I can't push hard for records," the 51-year-old Rodgers said. "I have to run more carefully, then I'll finish."
Jennings, 38, had run the marathon as an unofficial competitor in 1978 when she was a 17-year-old high school senior and ran about 2:46, a time that would have placed her third.
"It was a rough go," Jennings said. "It's slower than I thought, but I'm glad I qualified for the Olympic trials."
For Chebet, whose previous two losses were by three seconds each, this was his third victory. He won the first two marathons he entered, at Amsterdam in 1996 and at Turin, Italy, in 1997.
After his heartbreaking losses last year, Chebet said he had to train harder to win again, and this time, he began preparing about two months ahead of his previous schedule.
The dogged Chebet took the lead
"Everybody in the world is trying to catch the Kenyans, but they can't."
Joseph Chebet
Kenyan marathon runner
for good just past 22 miles from Ecuador's Silvio Guerra.
Guerra, seeking to become the first South American winner since Colombia's Elviro Mejia in 1971, built his lead between miles 17 and 22 to as much as a quarter-mile before he began laboring.
"To win a race, you have to take a risk, so I took the lead," Guerra said. "I started to push hard, but after 20 miles, I started to get blisters on my feet and slowed down. I didn't know how hard it would be in the end.
"I was ready for this race. I had been training in Boulder (Colo.) for six months."
Guerra held on to finish second at 2:10:18 and was followed by two South Africans — Frank Pooe at 2:11:37 and Aner Chipu at 2:12:45. Kenya's John Kagwe, who beat Chebet at New York in 1997 and 1998, wound up fifth for the second straight year at 2:13:57.
As often happens in a marathon, the early pacesetters eventually dropped from the lead.
Kenneth Cheriyuri of Kenya, a first-time marathoner, led most of
the way through mile 17 before dropping out. For the women, 20-year-old Sun Yingjie of China — with her unusual running style — was in front until just after the halfway mark, when Roba and Kenya's Catherine Ndereba, making her marathon debut, swept past her.
Yinglie, running with her hands mostly at her sides, reeled off some sensational early splits before her relative inexperience showed, and she began faltering.
"I knew that the pace was very fast, so I had to run fast," roba said, after running the fourth-fastest women's time at Boston.
Roba ran the final miles with a headband given to her by fans along the course. The large Ethiopian community in the Boston area has given Roba great support.
"They gave me a big boost," she said.
Roba was followed by 1997 New York City champion Franziska Rochat-Moser of Switzerland at 2:25:51, two-time Olympic medalist Yuko Amiori of Japan at 2:26:39 and South African Colleen de Reuck at 2:27:53.
The wheelchair champions each won for the third consecutive year, with Franz Nietlispach of Switzerland taking the men's title at 1:21:36 and Louise Savage of Australia edging seven-time winner Jean Driscoll of Champaign, Ill., for the women's crown, with both timed at 1:42:23.
Dallas Stars open playoffs against Edmonton
The Associated Press
The Stanley Cup playoffs begin tomorrow, and the Dallas Stars already are looking several games ahead.
The top-ranked Stars, who open against Edmonton, will be without All-Star defenseman Derian Hatcher for the first five games of the playoffs.
Hatcher is serving a suspension for attacking Phoenix forward Jeremy Roenick on last Wednesday. Hatcher left his feet to hit Roenick, fracturing his jaw and keeping the Coyotes' leading scorer from the playoffs.
The Dallas defenseman missed the last two games of the regular season.
Clearly, the Stars do not need
The Dallas-Edmonton game is one of four tomorrow night. The others are: Anaheim at Detroit, San Jose at Colorado and Buffalo at Ottawa.
Hatcher to beat the Oilers. They were 3-01 against Edmonton during the season and won their second-straight Presidents' Trophy with the NHL's best record.
Still, coach Ken Hitchcock is worried.
Goaltenders Ed Belfour and Roman Turek were up only 16 goals in 82 games between them, giving Dallas the Jennings Trophy (fewest goals yielded) for the first time.
"We're going to have to play better offensive hockey," he said. "Hopefully, we get a good offensive push from a couple of our key lines."
Hitchcock spoke following Sunday's season-end 2-1 loss to Colorado. The Stars are No. 8 in scoring in the NHL but first in defense.
"You have to feel confident when
you win the Jennings and the Presidents' Trophy," forward Mike Keane said. "We had a good year, but now it's a whole different season. We're ready to play."
On Thursday night, it's Pittsburgh at New Jersey, Boston at Carolina, Philadelphia at Toronto and St. Louis at Phoenix.
A look at tomorrow's other openers:
Anaheim at Detroit
The Red Wings hope to win their third-straight Stanley Cup, which would make them a rare bird. No team has won as many as three in row since the New York Islanders in 1980-83.
"Our job is to go out and play as physical as possible on those guys as we can," forward Kris Draper said of the Mighty Ducks.
The Mighty Ducks feature one of the most potent lines in the league with Teemu Selanne and Paul Kariya.
Detroit won the season series 3-1
San Jose at Colorado
The Avalanche took the season series, 3-1, and have been on a tear in the second half of the season after starting slowly.
The Sharks, 21st in the league in scoring, simply can't match the firepower of the Avalanche. More bad news for the Sharks: Colorado goalie Patrick Roy has been at the top of his game lately.
Ruffalo at Ottawa
Bullard and Okan
They played five overtime games this season, with the Senators holding a 1-0-4 edge. It will again be a battle of goals: Buffalo's Dominik Hasek vs. Tugnutt or Damian Rhodes.
"With Ottawa, you're dealing with a team that has great team speed," Buffalo coach Lindy Ruff said. "They've had one heck of a year. Both their goalleters have had a heck of a year."
The Senators finished second in the Eastern Conference.

For now, I'll snorkel 1200 miles of coral reef. Hike a Tasmanian trail.
Or, maybe I'll hang in a Melbourne pub with some crushy Aussies.

Election complaints could be invalidated
(USPS 650-640)
Hearings might have to be open to public
By Nadia Mustafa
nmustafa@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
The elections commission's decisions Monday about Student Senate campaign complaints could be invalidated if a complaint is filed to the state attorney general before April 29.
The commission's hearing board conducted a closed hearing Monday and on previous occasions earlier this semester upon advice from Karen Dutcher, associate KU general counsel. But, the attorney general's office thinks that the hearings should have
been open to the public.
According to Steven Phillips, assistant attorney general, the Kansas Open Meetings and Records Acts prohibits secret meetings by boards and commissions such as the elections commission. The board could decide to move to a closed session, he said, but it would not be allowed to take any binding action during the secret session.
Phillips said the commission was subject to the act because it was created by Senate and funded by student fees.
The board has ruled on at least four major complaints during closed sessions this semester. Decisions made prior to Monday cannot be voided because more than 10 days have passed since the rulings.
Rose Marino, associate KU general counsel, said the board qualified for an exception within the open records act that allowed
closed sessions for quasi-judicial bodies.
However, the definition of "quasi-judicial" is in dispute.
Ted Frederickson, lawyer and professor of journalism, said the board did not classify as quasi-judicial because it was political and
not judevine like the university of Kansas' parking board or judicial board. He said quasi-judicial implied that the board heard cases only affecting individuals. But, he said, the board ruled on conduct during
general elections, which applied to the student body as a whole.
STUDENT
THE UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS
SENATE
"It's a fig leaf they're hiding behind," Frederickson said. "It ought to be open to any student who wants to go watch. A political proc
ess ought to be open."
Richard Levy, professor of law, said a quasi-judicial function was the deliberation of facts and legal outcomes in respect to an individual or a few individuals.
"I'm fairly confident that the actual deliberation has to be a thing that can be done in a closed session," he said.
But, Mark Johnson, a lawyer who specializes in media-related matters and access to courts and public proceedings, said he didn't think the board would qualify as a quasi-judicial body.
"It seems at first blush that the meetings of this sort of student activity supported by student funds — unless the deliberations of the commission fall within one of the narrow exceptions — would have to be open," said Johnson, who practices law in Kansas City, Mo.
Regardless of the varying interpretations of "quasi-judicial," Phillips said the attorney general's interpretation was that the exception for quasi-judicial functions only applied to discussion among members of the board and not to binding decisions. He said that voting on complaints had to be public.
Dutcher said when she advised the commission to conduct closed hearings, she was concerned with the 1974 Family Education Rights to Privacy Act, also known as the Buckley Amendment, which denies federal funds to any institution that violates students' privacy by releasing student records without their permission.

Columbine High School students swarm to embrace a classmate who ran from the school after being barricaded there for more than four hours after the shooting spree began.

Two students in black trench coats swept through their suburban Littleton, Colo., high school with guns and explosives in a horrifying suicide attack yesterday that may have left 25 people dead. Several students said the killers were gunning for minorities and athletes.
It was the bloodiest in a string of school shootings that have rocked U.S. communities during the past few years.
"One of them opened his cape and had a shotgun. Finally, I started figuring out these guys shot to kill, for no reason," said student Nick Claus. "When he looked at me, the guy's eyes were just dead."
Randy Olsen, Littleton, Colo., Junior said he never would have thought such a violent act would take place at his old high school.
"It's just a peaceful, quite suburban school," he said.
The gunmen — both juniors at Columbine High School in the Denver suburb — were found dead in the school library with self-inflicted gunshot wounds and what appeared to be bombs around their bodies, sheriff's spokesman Steve Davis said.
"It appears to be a suicide mission," Sherif John Stone said.
Students said the gunmen, whose names were not released, apparently belonged to a clique of outcasts called the "Trench Coat Mafia." Members of the group wore long black coats, boasted of owning guns and disliked Blacks, Hispanics and football players.
Davis said that the motive for the attack was unknown and that school officials had had no reports of trouble from the students.
The sheriff said 25 people, students and teachers, may have been killed. By early evening, officers had yet to remove any bodies because of the danger of explosives and the need to preserve evidence. FBI agents

Leaders say they are not partial to particular groups
Even though the University of Kansas has had greek-affiliated leaders for at least the past five years, Student Senate leaders said they were working to serve students as members of the University rather than as members of particular living groups.
Senators said that although during elections it may have seemed as though some coalitions had attempted to target greek or anti-greek sentiment, within Senate sessions that topic rarely surfaced.
"Very seldom do greek issues come up
In recent years, Yoder said that rather than targeting members of Greek organizations, coalitions could be categorized as groups that appealed to mainstream University pride votes.

Regents propose hike in tuition to aid libraries
Bv Kristi Reimer
By Kristi Reimer knreimer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
In the face of soaring costs of books, journals and information services, the University of Kansas and other Regents schools are considering raising tuition by $1 per credit hour to boost their libraries' flagging purchasing power.
At last week's Board of Regents meeting, Kansas State University made a pitch to raise its tuition beyond the yearly inflationary increase and use the additional funds for its library. Other universities thought the proposal made so much sense that they suggested making it Regentswide and asking the state to match the increase.
"Every library in the country has been
canceling journals and buying fewer books," said David Shulenburger, provost of the University of Kansas. "We're part of a national phenomenon."
The legislature normally budgets a halfpercent increase in library funding every year, Shulenburger said, but the rate of inflation for library materials has been running at 10 percent per year for more than 20 years.
The library fee would be in addition to the 2.5 percent inflationary hike for 2000-2001 tuition that the Board of Regents will consider at its May meeting. Because the increase would be added to tuition and not student fees, it would not require student approval.

TV cameramen film piles of transcripts from testimonies by President Bill Clinton and Monica Lewinsky. The picture, taken by 1988 KU graduate Wilfredo Lee, was part of a photo spread with 20 pictures and won the Pulitzer Prize for feature photography. Associated Press photograph
KU journalism graduate shares 1999 Pulitzer Prize
By Chris Hopkins chopkins@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
Valerie Holt, an administrative assistant with the headquarters of the AP photo division, said that she called the winners to inform them and that Lee was in denial.
KU graduate Wilfredo Lee was one of 15 Associated Press photographers to win a 1999 Pulitzer Prize for feature photography. Lee graduated with a journalism degree in 1988.
"He did not believe me," she said. "He just wouldn't believe me."
"He was a fine photographer," he said. "He obviously was in the right place at the right time, but you have to do more than that."
Holt said Lee didn't even think his photo had run with the prize-winning piece, a collection of photos about the Clinton impeachment hearings.
Lee said that he moved the month after he shot the photo and was taken by surprise by the award.
"I had transferred from Washington to Miami, so I didn't expect to be anywhere near it," he said.
Lee's picture, one of 20 in the prizewinning photo spread, showed four TV cameramen taking shots of piles of transcripts from testimony by President Bill Clinton and Monica Lewinsky.
Tom Eblen, general manager of The University Daily Kansan, which Lee worked for while at the University, said that Lee deserved the award.
Boyen said that without Lee's technical expertise and talent, the photo wouldn't have been the same.
Wally Emerson taught advanced photography classes at the KU School of Journalism when Lee was at the University. Emerson said he had enjoyed teaching Lee.
"He was a very interesting student to have, and I was glad to know him," he said. "He had a good eye."
Pulitzer Prize winners also receive a cash award, but Lee said the number of winners in his category dulled his excitement for that.
"We have to split it 15 ways," he said.
"We'll probably end up with $1.50."
Each winner actually will get about $333 of the $5,000 prize.
The AP also won the spot news category for its photographs of the U.S. embassy bombings in Kenya and Tanzania.

Correction indicates higher voter turnout
Voter turnout in Student Senate elections last week actually was higher than last year's 19 percent.
The elections commission miscalculated this year's voter turnout, said Amanda Weinberg, elections commission chairwoman. She said turnout was 20 percent instead of 18 percent, the original figure reported Thursday by the commission.

Weinberg said the commission used the student population of all three KU campuses in its original calculations, but only students at the Lawrence campus could vote.
English department OKs minor proposal criteria
The department of English has proposed requirements to allow students to receive a minor in English.
The proposal still will need to pass through the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences Assembly's Committee on Undergraduate Studies and Advising, but Richard Hardin, department chairman, didn't foresee any problems.
Hardin said minors were a priority in the college.
"All departments were invited to submit proposals for minors," he said.
propose To earn an English minor, students in the college would have to take 18 hours of classes in the department, all of which must be above the 300-level. Students also must take two British literature classes and two American literature classes.
The college plans for all departments
to have minors in all departments by the year 2000, but only students in the college would be able to earn them.
Hardin said earning minors was a matter of college policy, but whether the minor would be counted as official wouldn't matter.
"As far as I'm concerned, if somebody takes these courses, you've got a minor in English," he said.
Hardin said minors were necessary because the increase in the requirements for majors in the last decade had made it difficult to earn double majors.
"I think probably the need on the part of some of us to generate more student credit hours has increased the number of hours for a major," he said.

Booming U.S. demand widens trade deficit
WASHINGTON — America's trade deficit surged to another record as after shocks from the global financial crisis cut further into the ability of American manufacturers and farmers to sell overseas as booming U.S. demand sent imports of cars, clothing and other consumer goods to all-time highs.
The deficit widened to $19.4 billion in February. That was a 15.6 percent increase from the previous record, January's imbalance of $16.8 billion.
Congressional and labor union critics of President Clinton's free trade policies said the dramatic widening of the deficit in the year's first two months pointed to a need for policies to protect American jobs.
The administration insisted, however that the rising deficit is a reflection of the strong U.S. economy. It warned that the United States must not erect protectionist barriers at a time when the global economy remains fragile.
The administration plans to push its agenda for overhauling the global financial architecture at meetings beginning this week of the 182 nation International Monetary Fund, the main agency dealing with the financial firestorm that has pushed one third of the world into recession.
But critics pointed to the 380,000 jobs lost in the past year at U.S. manufacturing plants forced to cut back production because of slumping exports, and they warned that Clinton's current policies must be changed.
Florida fire may benefit ecosystem, spare wildlife
IN THE FLORIDA EVERGLADES — Curtains of brown and gray smoke rose from the burning Everglades yesterday as fire officials said they were close to blocking the blaze that had charred more than 130,000 acres of dry sawgrass.
The fire was pushing toward the south and west and could cover an additional 40,000 acres, state forestry officials said
There was a chance that improving visibility late yesterday also could allow the state to reopen a 60 mile stretch of South Florida's main east-west highway, Interstate 75 or the Alligator Alley, which had been closed since the weekend.
However, the fire, about 25 miles northwest of Miami, was not threatening any homes and will help the Everglades ecosystem that is home to egrets, bass, alligators and other wildlife, said John Fish, a representative for the state Division of Forestry.

Students say Senate focuses on all groups

elect, said that although there were some seats such as Nunemaker that were consistently held by greeks, other seats, including architecture and College of Liberal Arts and Sciences were consistently non-greek.
"It's harder to mobilize people off campus to vote and get involved," she said. "Within the Greek system, it is easier to support and fire up that sense of community."
Seibel said that the majority of voting students were affiliated with Greek organizations and that it was easier to motivate the greek community to go to the polls and vote.
Krebs said the sense of community made it easier for greeks to dominate the system.
"There is a lot of greek solidarity." she said. "Members of that community are willing to support other members."
Kevin Rapp, Interfraternity Council Senator, said Student Senate helped to open programs to all students that traditionally had been reserved for Greek organizations.
He said programs such as the blood drive and adopt a school, a volunteer program in local elementary schools, were now funded by Student Senate and open to all students.
"Programs that are started and successful under the Interfraternity Council or Panhellenic, are then opened up to the entire student body with Student Senate." Rapp said
"It is against rules and regulations to finance a strictly greek project or program," Rapp said. "So they opened up the board to any student."
Krebs said although the publication did not reach all students, there was an overwhelming majority in senate that supported the project.
"When one group dominates, their views and priorities may get pushed to the top," she said.
Greek-affiliated students are pleased with the representation their community receives in Senate.
Joel Ackerman, Leawood senior and Delta Tan Delta fraternity member, said that despite the number of greek senators, student government had not focused on or given above average attention to Greek issues.
"They attempt to please all aspects of the University and not just one small community like the greeks," Ackerman said.

Forum explores history of conflict in Kosovo
By Dan Curry
dcurry@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
By Dan Curry
In 1985 a Mercedes drove down a central avenue in Kosovo with a flag, which bore the single star of the Albanian nation, extended from the window.
Words on the flag read: "Kosovo, independent republic."
Marc Greenberg, associate professor of Slavic Languages and Literature, used this incident as an example when he explained the increasing nationalism in Kosovo in the 1980s to about 150 people yesterday at the Kansas Room in the Kansas Union.
He said that a defining moment for the Serbian people occurred in 1389 at the Battle of Kosovo, where the Serbs stopped the advance of the Turks through Europe.
The ethnic Albanians, linguistically and religiously different from the Serbians, were said to have fought on the side of the Turks in that battle.
Greenberg was one of three professors who, along with an army captain, tried to make sense of the current conflict in Kosovo at a panel discussion sponsored by the Office of International Programs and the Center for Russian and East European Studies.
Many of the questions posed to the panel dealt with the probability of dispatching NATO ground troops into the region.
Army Capt. Steve Calhoun, Lawrence graduate student, briefed the audience about the terrain in Kosovo, which he described as mountainous, rugged topography. This terrain makes vehicular movement difficult.
"Bottom line, from a military perspective, Yugoslavia and Kosovo would be a tough nut to crack," he said. "There are at least 60,000 Yugoslavian troops in Kosovo."
Fresh off the plane from the Boston Marathon, Paul D'Amiert, associate professor of political science, said that the air campaign against Serbia would not be effective.
"Nobody ever forced anybody to do anything by simply dropping bombs," D'Anieri said. "Right now the facts on the ground very much favor Yugoslavia."
"They're not going to be negotiating something that if they keep on fighting they get to keep."
Norm Saul, professor of history, said he saw no easy solution to the conflict.
"I don't see how Serbians and Albanians can live together again," he said. "The only potential solution — if there is a solution — is a division of the land."

Tutu lecture fails to draw expected crowd

Despite widespread advertising, attendance was lower than anticipated at Sunday's lecture by Archbishop Desmond Tutu.
Cody Simms, Student Union Activities forums coordinator, said that 5,500 people were projected to attend the event. Of the 3,933 people who attended, about 2,000 were students.
SUA, Student Senate and the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences spent at least $70,000 to bring Tutu, 1984 Nobel Peace Prize winner and a leader in the fight against South African apartheid, to the University of Kansas. About $5,000-$6,000 of this money was spent on advertising.
Simms said the fact that SUA lost money on the event was not cause for concern.
"We're not disappointed at all," he said. "We're thrilled to have more than 2,000 students at a lecture."
Simms emphasized that SUA was a non-profit organization that brought people and events to the University that students might not otherwise be able to see.
SUA distributed 1,500 free tickets to the lecture, Jeff LaCroix, vice president of University Relations said that tickets went to radio stations 90.7, 105.9 and 103.3 for promotions, to students whose professors requested they attend for class, and to the Kansan advertising staff in lieu of payment for advertisements promoting the lecture.
Simms said that most of the promotion SUA did for the lecture were within the campus community rather than throughout Lawrence. There were posters in campus buildings in addition to the advertisements in the Kansan.
"We put up posters around town and counted on the Journal-World to pick up the story." Simms said.
Because SUA members had a limited budget to pay for promotion, they spent the money in places that would reach the widest possible audience. Simms said.
For instance, they took out advertisements in The Kansas City Star and placed two billboards on Interstate 70—one in Topeka and one east of Lawrence.
LaCroix said promotions in the community included postcards and posters, which were sent to
local churches. SUA also offered discounts to groups that bought tickets in bulk.
Students who attended the lecture said the lower-than-expected turnout was not because of a lack of advertising.
"I saw the sign on the Chi Omega house and in the paper, and one of my friends is from South Africa," said Chris Smith. St. Louis junior and Zeta Beta Tau fraternity member. "A lot of guys in my house went."
"I found out about it from my anthropology class," Shaw said. "I saw it in the paper after I found out about it. But I think a lot of people didn't know who he was."
Melissa Shaw, Kansas City, Kan., junior, said she also saw promotions in the newspaper.

Coverage of Brownback's speech misses point about Social Security
Recent media coverage of Sen. Sam Brownback's remarks linking abortion to problems with Social Security was misleading and detrimental to the public, politicians and the media.
The University Daily Kansas, The Laurence Journal World, the Kansas City Star and the Wichita Eagle all told the same deceiving story: Brownback blamed abortions for decreasing the work force and damaging Social Security. Brownback's single statement, not said or meant to be taken seriously, indicated what he thought was one of many contributing factors to a decreased U.S. work force that has caused a cash shortage in the nation's Social Security Trust Fund.
instead of focusing on Brownback's solutions for solving Social Security woes. The Associated Press and local newspapers misdirected their attention
The area newspapers' focus was misleading and detrimental for readers.
toward one quote taken out of context. In doing so, the media invited negative criticism, which benefited no one.
Although Brownback stands behind his statement that abortion negatively impacts the system, he does not advocate abortion restrictions to solve Social Security problems.
Brownback also does not blame women for Social Security's shortcomings. Instead, his solution to the problem is setting up personal retirement accounts. To find this information in the news coverage, one had to read past the several paragraphs of criticism first.
During his April speaking tour of nine cities, Brownback had voiced his ideas for saving Social Security, providing tax relief to voters and paying off the national debt.
Such issues may not be controversial to report on, but there still is value in informing Kansans what their senator believes will improve the country.
Moreover, reforming Social Security is a vital issue that needs nationwide support. Linking Social Security reform to negative criticism is damaging.
The media was wrong in its careless presentation of the entire story. What made the best story was not the most accurate story.
The worst part of this situation is that no one wins. The public was misinformed. The politician received negative attention. The media lost credibility for telling a tainted story.

Lewis Hall may hog campus leaders
But what happens when a group consists only of people who each consider themselves to be leaders?
Leadership is a difficult word to define. Some people consider someone who is willing to make decisions and speak out for a group a leader. When one appraises a group of people, usually it is not difficult to find the leader.
Residents of Lewis Hall may soon find out the answer, and they may not like it. Too many leaders together causes foreseeable problems.
Lewis is being renovated into a new suite system. The plan is for Lewis to be devoted to three ideals: community service, diversity and leadership. Students who attend the University on leadership scholarships will be
The suggested leadership floor is a bad idea for the University of Kansas.
encouraged to apply to live there
A group of current students wants a floor in the hall that is for leaders only. Other floors within University residence halls have themes, such as honors floors in both Templin and McCollum halls. The idea is to form strong ties within a floor of students who have similar interests.
more likely to breed hostility than friendship.
However, many possible problems with the prospect of a leadership floor exist. Who leads within a group of people who are all leaders? This appears
the other major problem would be be a possible shortage of leaders in the remainder of the residence halls. All halls and other living organizations need good leaders, and it could cause difficulties if the majority of the strongest leaders live in the same place.
Floors for people who share specific interests are a good idea. Honors floors have been successful. However, leadership is an attribute much more abstract and difficult to assess. Concentrating leaders on one floor of campus would be a disservice to both the students and the residence hall system.

Alternative break shows inequality in America
I cannot say that Alternative Spring Break was a life-altering experience. I have been called cynical before, and I often comment on the lack of opportunity
for some Americans while a select few enjoy copious amounts of good humor and hope for a lucrative future. The facade of equity that this country propagates always has seemed base to me and after my brief visit to Philadelphia, this feeling became even more ominous.
While in Philadelphia, I worked with the National School and Community Corps, a subsidiary of
Nick Zaller
Quest columns
AmeriCorps, in Elkin Elementary School located just a few blocks from what many Philly residents call The Badlands. My official function was to act as a teacher's aid and to assist with after-school programs such as tutoring and beautification projects.
My real function was much more basic: to pay attention to the kids. I found that many of these children live in what now is considered a cliché a broken household. Many of them do not get any attention at home, and they loved our presence in the school. The rest of the group and I acted as big brothers and big sisters by interacting with, teaching and, most importantly, listening to the kids.
All of this sounds pretty normal, and most people think that this is nice and no big deal. Now here comes the frustrating part. We tried to help third and fourth grade kids who could not read a single word. We tried to help students do basic math problems, but they did not know what the signs for plus and minus meant. We helped plant flowers, but we spent much of our time picking glass out of the soil beds.
we ran into some kids with severe behavioral disorders and broke up fights that erupted on the blacktop where the kids had to play because of the lack of green space in the city's concrete jungle. As I looked into many of those kids' eyes, I tried to shut out visions of a bleak future. I tried to shut out the fact that many of them may never graduate from high school.
But to all those who say that there is no hope, I invite you to come and visit North Philadelphia. Amid the dilapidation, there are those dedicated to rejuvenation of a community stricken by the bitterness and apa-
ty of the outside world. Here you would not
expect dedicated teachers, such as Mr.
Traotner of DeBurgos Middle School, who
work their fingers to the bone and genuinely
care for the kids when so many have given
up on them.
The negative stereotype of North Philadelphia does not take into account the NSCC volunteers, such as Tony Rodriguez, whose sincerity and compassion is inspiring to all. Furthermore, you probably have never heard about some of the people in the community, specifically a woman named Nellie who runs a lighthouse community center. She invited our group to paint a mural at the community'center.
On the mural, wheat fields of Kansas are connected to the Liberty Bell in Philadelphia by a bridge that signifies the union between two communities with a similar hope for a better tomorrow. We painted this mural along with neighborhood children and NSCC volunteers in a cooperative effort. It is this sense of cooperation that never will allow the flame of hope to extinguish.
I did not change the world during spring break. In fact, I feel as if I have taken more than I have given. Alternative Spring Break in Philadelphia gave me a new perspective. I cringed even more when I hear the argument against higher taxes for education because people don't want to pay for "other kids" to go to school. It is difficult to witness the white urban flight from cities such as Philadelphia.
No one can be blamed for wanting to give their child a good education in a safe environment. But the kids at Elkin do not have that option. They did not choose their lives. Are we going to punish them for circumstances beyond their control by not supporting public education? Are they not entitled to the same opportunity for a prosperous future as other children? These are difficult questions and Alternative Spring Break did not give me the answers.
Most of us at the University of Kansas are fortunate. Alternative Spring Break showed me that if we all show more compassion and think about the problems that others may face and try to understand these problems, then perhaps together we can figure out answers and the world will change for the better.

Death penalty deserves no place in U.S. justice
I hope that every person's reaction to the brutal murder of James Byrd Jr., of Jasper, Texas, was nothing short of rage, disgust and sorrow. The tale of an innocent
man dragger to his death and decapitation by a white supremacist, who had nothing to say at trial to the victim's family but obscenities, should evoke only the deepest, darkest emotions from a human heart.
it was no surprise that even this small-town Texas jury swiftly gave the defendant, John William King, a death sentence, allowing many angry Americans to breathe a sigh of relief and to praise the justice well done.

to praise the justice system for a job well done.
were done.
Soon, people may do the same at the conclusion of the Matthew Shepard murder, in which one of the two young men has pleaded guilty, getting two life sentences and the other may face the death penalty if convicted. The two are accused of beating the gay Wyoming student to death.
Cases such as these bring the spotlight to one of America's biggest and most tolerated mistakes — capital punishment. In the midst of a rabid "Get tough on crime" trend, the public overwhelmingly is accepting of this deadly judicial tool, a remnant of ancient times that turns the state into a murderer to punish murderers. The United States is one of only a few developed countries that still execute its own citizens in such a manner.
I could drone on with a list of statistics to prove that the death penalty is both costly and ineffective in reducing crime, but that would overshadow the simple fact that capital punishment is fundamentally wrong. No amount of economic or pragmatic justification could change that.
Many argue that the emotional satisfaction of a convict's death in return for a victim's death is justification enough because of the closure it brings for victims' families if you ignore the growing number of victims' families who have publicly denounced capital punishment.
I must admit that I probably would wish death on any person who would harm someone I love. The justice system cannot be run on victims' or the families' emotions. Concerning the severity of punishment, it must draw the line somewhere.
Sure, the system allows prisoners to appeal their convictions. Sadly, this right seems to annoy many pro-death Americans. These people might be reassured to know that it is extremely difficult to earn a complete and fair retrial after the initial conviction, which permanently brands any convict as "Guilty until proven innocent."
Even if the death penalty had all of the justification in the world, there still would be the eerie, over-lingering possibility that innocent people could be executed — irreversibly penalized — for crimes they did not commit.
Since the Supreme Court decided in 1975 that the death penalty was no longer cruel or unusual, some 75 wrongly convicted inmates fortunately have been released from death row. For the other 3,000 prisoners on death row, we only can cross our fingers and hope that our court system gave them all four trials and the best defenses available.
Take, for instance, Philadelphia activist Muma Abu-Jamal, who was convicted and sentenced to death based on highly sketchy and circumstantial evidence for the murder of a police officer. Despite the publicity given to the case, as well as enormous public outcry and numerous protests in his favor, his execution only has been delayed.
Most other death-row inmates are not fortunate enough to attract that kind of public attention. These include a disproportionate number of minorities, many mentally-impaired prisoners and 65 inmates who received their terminal sentence when they still were minors. Most will die with no more fanfare than small candlelight vigils outside their prisons.
As for King, his own reaction in court leaves little doubt that he is guilty of the murder for which he was convicted. The rightfully enraged American public must resist the temptation to execute him and other such criminals. Even the John William Kings of society are still human beings, as much as we hate to admit it, and their times and manners of death should not be decided by public policy.
Before we get any tougher on crime, I hope America realizes that the death penalty has no place in our "democratic" country. "An eye for an eye" only is bloody revenge, not civilized justice.

YOU fined $50 for election violation
By Nadia Mustafa
nmustafa@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
An apartment complex near campus will receive $20 from the YOU coalition for cleaning up the coalition's campaign literature last week.
The elections commission's hearing board fined YOU $50 Monday night, $30 of which will be paid to the commission, for distributing campaign doorhangers to Berkeley Flats, 1123 Indiana St. The complex has a no-soliciting policy, and the elections code prohibits coalitions from campaigned on private property without the owner's permission.
Amy Cummins, graduate senator and Berkeley Flats resident, filed the complaint against YOU on April 14 after she found YOU doorhangers on her and her neighbors' doorknobs.
Although Korb Maxwell, YOU president and student body president-elect, said YOU had distributed about 800 doorhangers to about 10 apartment complexes around Lawrence, the board deemed it a minor violation because it said that it only heard evidence about cam-
pign materials in Berkeley Flats.
Maxwell said that YOU had apologized and that he thought it was fair that the coalition would have to pay recuperative costs to the complex's management.
"There are consequences, and we'll take it," he said. "They made a wise decision. They were not overly punitive and understood that it was just an honest mistake by candidates."
Cummins said she was disappointed by the amount of the fine because the violation had been a pattern during the last few years.
"I believe that this is a major infraction that deserved more than just a slap on the wrist," she said.
"Printing and then distributing thousands of these illegal handbills shows a deliberate attempt to manipulate the elections commissions' regulations. To many off-campus residents, using these handbills, then paying a small fine seems to be nothing better than buying the vote."
Individuals who fled two other campaign complaints, which were dismissed by the board Monday, will pursue further action.
J. D. Jenkins, Nunemaker senator,
said he would request that the commission draft a letter explaining its decision about a supposedly nonpolitical complaint he filed last Thursday before election results were tabulated. The complaint maintained that the recreation task force allegedly attempted to influence the election by violating numerous elections code rules and KU policy.
He said the task force violated rules about campaign materials on campus such as leaving flies unattended in classrooms and writing pro-campaign slogans on classroom chalkboards.
In addition, Jenkins said the task force committed fraud by providing misleading information about its proposal to students. He wanted the commission to write in the letter that evidence existed indicating that the task force had committed the alleged violations so that he could present it to Chancellor Robert Hemenway.
The board ruled that it did not have jurisdiction to rule on Jenkins' complaint. Jenkins said the ruling set a bad precedent.
"The referendum would not have passed by a landslide if they had not
had done all those things." he said.
"They made a mockery of the democratic process."
Partha Mazumdar, graduate senator, filied a complaint Monday on behalf of Delta Force alleging that YOU had committed libel and slander by distributing a brochure that claimed Delta Force was ant-greek.
Ben Walker, Nunemaker senator, had denied the charges, and the board determined that it did not have enough evidence to prove that YOU had created the brochure.
Mazumdar said he was disappointed with the ruling.
"They do this every year, and they're going to do it again next year," he said. "This summer we'll find out that they did it, and then it will be too late. The bottom line is that we ran a very clean campaign. This is the third year in a row that Delta Force was not found guilty of anything at all."
Mazumdair said he would request that the commission adopt a rule that coalitions must be held responsible for all campaign-related activities and materials on campus.

$1 per hour increase would help subsidize journal subscriptions
Continued from page 1A
"We certainly want the support of students, but Regents rules don't call for student votes on anything but student fees," Shulenburger said.
He said if the plan was approved and the legislature voted to match the funds, the University would receive approximately $1.2 million in additional revenue yearly. The proposal is similar to a dollar-percredit-hour technology fee the Regents approved in 1997.
"It seems like a small amount to pay for doing good work," she said.
Alison Watkins, Lawrence graduate student, said she wouldn't mind paying extra money for the library.
Bill Crowe, vice chancellor of information services and dean of libraries, said that as the father of an incoming freshman, he was concerned about rising tuition. But the library's role in a university environment led him to think that most people would support the proposed increase.
Crowe said the University had a long tradition of making its library a priority, but the costs of doing business had been outstripping that support.
"There are several things you can tell about the quality of a campus," he said. "One is the faculty; another is the library. You can get a sense of: 'Are these people up to date?' 'Are they offering contemporary services such that I want to come to school here?"
"It's not that we're getting less money," Crowe said. "We're getting two-thirds more money than when I

came in 1990. We were then paying for 16,000 subscriptions. Now we're down to less than 12,000, and we have a lot more money."
Crowe said graduate students felt the loss most keenly when they looked for an article in a journal and got a message that the subscription had been canceled. The situation wasn't as dire with undergraduate materials, he said, but was getting worse.
"When the library's at risk, your education's at risk," Crowe said. "It's that simple an equation."
A Regents committee will consider the library increase at its May meeting. If approved, the plan will go to the full board in June. The governor and legislature would have to appropriate the funds back to the Regents, as well as vote to match them, in the 2000 legislative session.
The increase would take effect in Fall 2000.

Committee rejects KJHK's cattle call
Wednesday, April 21, 1989

The University of Kansas won't have a cow, man.
In keeping with the down-home promotion of the Farmer's Ball, the staff at KJHK wanted to bring some cattle to campus, fencing them in front of Stauffer-Flint Hall.
But the University Events Committee wasn't moved.
The committee rejected the plan last Wednesday on grounds that by placing the cows on campus, students could be put in danger. A city ordinance also disallowed livestock within the city limits, the committee told the KJHK promotions staff.
"We determined that essentially putting livestock on campus was not putting good use to the space," said Danny Kaiser, chairman of the committee. "We were worried about the health and safety of people. Even tame cows
For Brandy Ernzen, director of promotions for KJHK, the rejection was quite a ledown. She and other staff members had prepared for the promotion well in advance.
can get frightened and attempt to run away."
Ernzen had planned to borrow three or four cows from a farmer in her hometown of Basehor. She also had spoken with the Humane Society to make sure having the cows wear sandwich signs was OK. She arranged for the area to be fenced in and talked with the parking department to make sure the cattle trailer's driver had a place to park legally.
And although the city or dinance was hard to ignore, Ernzen said the committee's approach to the proposal was somewhat full of manure. Five years ago, local 4-H members brought cows to campus for a similar promotion.
campus for a shrimp professor.
"We got sandbagged," she said.
more than 24 hours after she submitted the formal proposal, the committee prepared a researched case against the idea.
"We got sandbagged," she said. Ernzen said the committee went out of its way to stop the promotion. A little
"Because it was such a unique situation, we did some homework," Kaiser said.
With the Farmer's Ball beginning at 10 p.m. today at The Bottleneck, 737 New Hampshire St., there obviously isn't much Ernzen and KJHK can do to bring the cows home.
Eight groups will play in the next two days — four tonight and four tomorrow
The bands were selected by KJHK staff members in a screening of 71 cassettes and CDs, during which the bands' names were not revealed to promote fairness.

Commission postpones allocation of road funds
By Heather Woodward
hwoodward@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
The Lawrence City Commission opted to delay a decision by one week about how to use the city's yearly grant from the Kansas Department of Transportation, which can be used to improve state highways.
In a report, city staff had recommended a change in the striping of West Sixth Street, which is U.S. highways 59 and 40 between Maine and Tennessee streets, to include a center lane for left turns along that stretch. The restriping would cost about $20,000, which would be evenly split between the city and KDOT.
After hearing local residents' concerns about how the restriping would affect parking and traffic flow in their neighborhood, City Manager Mike Wildgen suggested using the grant to improve portions of Iowa Street.
"We have to apply for these grants two years in advance, and we have to anticipate which roads are going to deteriorate faster," Wildglen said. "It is my opinion that Iowa Street is in worse shape."
Wildgen's suggestion would allow city officials to further investigate options for improving the condition of West Sixth Street and revisit the issue next year.
George Williams, assistant director of public works, asked for the one-week delay on a final decision because he said he was not sure whether KDOT would allow the city to switch the location where the money would be spent.
Mayor Erv Hodges said he had requested the staff report on West Sixth Street because he frequently drove in that area and had witnessed several accidents.
The staff report also recommended that all remaining parking on West Sixth Street between Maine and Tennessee streets be eliminated.
Bill Pugh, 909 W. Sixth St., said eliminating parking would further the disturbance of traffic near his home.
"Since 1991, there has been an increase in the aggressiveness of traffic and noise in this area." Pugh said. "We don't want to lose even 10 feet of quiet space. The parking acts as a buffer from the noise."

School shooting may have left up to 25 dead

and police SWAT teams slowly made their way through the building.
Justin Loburgio, Littleton senior and Columbine graduate,
said that at first the severity of the massacre didn't sink in.
"It was unusual," he said.
at least 23 people were hospitalized, most of them with gunshot wounds. At least 11 were in critical or serious condition; one was in guarded condition.
Loburgio said that he was an athlete in high school but that it hadn't made him a target of abuse.
"I never experienced any animosity," he said.
"I'm waiting on pins and needles to see how many were killed and if there is my name recognition," he said.
He said he would spend the night glued to his television until the victims were identified.
The attack began at 11:30 a.m. The killers started firing in the parking lot and then entered the school. They shot as they walked into the cafeteria, then went to the library and continued firing with what were thought to be semiautomatic weapons and a shotgun.
"At first we thought it was fireworks, then we saw them shooting," said Columbine student Jake Apoeaca, 16. "He saw us and then he started shooting at us. Then a guy in a white T-shirt threw two hand grenades on the roof. We hit the ground and then we started running."
Dozens of students hid in classrooms before escaping with the help of police in an armored car. Others were trapped while SWAT teams searched for the gunmen.
Davis said that explosives were found in two cars in the school parking lot and that bomb squad officers were disarming them. Also, the homes of the two gunmen were being searched.
Amy Beth Mears, Littleton, Colo., senior, went to another of Littleton's three high schools. She described the area of town where the shooting happened as affluent and predominantly middle-class.
"It seems like things like this are happening where you least expect. It's probably because these are the places that are not taking precautions," she said. "They think, 'Oh, it wouldn't happen here—we've got a great group of kids.'"
"Not every kid who wears a trench coat is going to blow someone away," she said.
Since 1997, a series of school shootings around the country has led to demands for stricter laws, tighter security and closer monitoring of troubled students. Two people were killed in an attack in Pearl, Miss., three in West Paducah, Ky., five in Jonesboro, Ark., and two in Springfield, Ore.

Tales of Kosovo atrocities mount
U.S. helicopters head to Albania to press attacks against Serbians
The Associated Press
BELGRADE, Yugoslavia — NATO launched daylight attacks yesterday in Pristina and other parts of Kosovo while accusing Serb forces of flushing out ethnic Albanians hiding in the province's hills.
U. S. helicopters and troops were headed toward Albania in a new phase aimed at boosting the alliance's ability to attack Yugoslav ground forces and stop their campaign to rid Kosovo of its ethnic Albanian majority.
NATO representative Jamie Shea said Serb military and
paramilitary forces were shelling hills where ethnic Albanians had fled, marching the refugees on roads and putting them on trains to the border, then closing the frontier to them.
"What we are seeing as we study these movements of people is a kind of safari operation ongoing by the Serb security forces against the Kosovar Albanians." Shea said.
He told reporters at NATO headquarters in Brussels, Belgium, that the alliance was investigating reports of 700 ethnic Albanian boys as young as 14 being used either as "human shields or as blood banks for
Refugees also said that as many as 700 men were used as human shields last week near the town of Orahovac.
Serb casualties."
The accusations came as the alliance continued its four-week assault on Yugoslavia.
The Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe said 15 wounded Kosovo Liberation Army fighters were brought to a hospital yesterday in the Albanian border town Bajram Curri, along with the bodies of two rebels killed during fighting.
Also yesterday, an Albanian soldier was wounded in a seven-hour exchange of machine-gun and sniper fire across the Yugoslav-Albanian border south of the Kosovo city Djakovica, the OSCE reported.
It was the first reported clash
between Albanian and Yugoslav forces since the NATO bombing campaign began March 24.
NATO also cited a series of "disturbing developments," including reports "too numerous" to ignore of Serb soldiers raping ethnic Albanian women, using tear gas to move ethnic Albanians out of homes in Pristina and mixing into civilian convoys, in addition to continuing reports of executions and mass burials.
Ethnic Albanians once made up 90 percent of Kosovo's 2 million people, and Yugoslav forces have expelled an estimated 640,000 of them from the province since last month. Many ethnic Albanians favor independence for Kosovo, a province of Serbia, Yugoslavia's dominant republic.
Administrators plan NATO summit details
The biggest headaches: Who should sit next to President Clinton at dinner? (Still unclear). And how to hang the flags? (Alphabetically.)
WASHINGTON — Details, details: For the State Department's office of protocol, taking proper care of the leaders of 42 foreign countries at this week's NATO summit is a logistical nightmare of motorcades, seating assignments, flags and music.
"We're going to try to stay calm. It works better that way," said Chief of Protocol Mary Mel French, her laugh masking the hours of frenzied planning her office is doing for Washington's largest-ever gathering of heads of state.
French's staff must make sure that the limousines run on time, that guests are properly attired, that cultural barriers are bridged and
The Associated Press
that visitors are not offended.
They know, for instance, that the flags of the 19 NATO countries are displayed alphabetically — according to the English language — with NATO's in the middle.
They know that NATO newcomer Vaclav Havel, president of the Czech Republic since 1989, ranks No.1 on the seating hierarchy for one dinner the White House is holding for members of the alliance. German Chancellor Gerhard Schroeder, his country's leader for just six months, ranks last.
But even that doesn't clear up who will sit next to Clinton. It also depends on how the tables are arranged, whether there will be other special guests and if seating is arranged male/female.
And the ranking will be different at a second White House dinner, for both NATO members and the 25 eastern and central European countries that are NATO partners.
"That changes the protocol order," French said
It sounds complicated, yet protocol makes seating at official dinners manageable, says Selva "Lucky" Roosevelt, chief of protocol from 1982 to 1989. during Reagan's presidency.
"If somebody says, 'Why does the person from that unimportant little country of Lower Slobovia get to sit next to the president, and my country doesn't?' You can say, 'We just followed protocol,' " Roosevelt said. "That gives you an out. Everybody observes the same protocol."
Does anybody really fuss about seating?
"Oh, my dear, do they!" Roosevelt said. An Italian foreign minister once threatened to leave the White House unless seating assignments were changed. "They take it not only as a personal affront but as an affront to their country."

For many first-generation students, a college education comes without a support system
Flying solo
story by irina rodriguez • photo illustration by augustus anthony piazza
Some first-generation college students must turn to University of Kansas services to answer questions about such things as financial aid and career counseling.
Vickie Olson
Vickie Olson's parents weren't happy when she wanted to go to college. They couldn't help her choose the right university, or the right major, and they couldn't pay for school. They believed she would be better off getting married and having kids.
She listened to their advice, married and had kids. But she never stopped dreaming about college.
"My relatives don't understand the amount of time and effort I put in school and get offended if I don't visit them often enough."
Lawrence senior
Today, she is a senior in sociology and women's studies at the University of Kansas. She is one of many so-called "first-generation" students, whose parents don't have college degrees.
First-generation students don't have academic guidance, are often scared and insecure, and many times they don't have the support of their parents.
For Sandrea Anders, Overland Park senior, there was the additional challenge of inadequate academic preparation from her high school. She wasn't instructed on how to study efficiently and wasn't acquainted with good resources.
"When I came to KU, I didn't know anything about a computer," she said. "Besides, being an African-American coming to a predominantly white campus, I had a feeling that I was not supposed to be here, and it was not for me."
"They always had doubts that Lati-nos were serious about anything and looked at me with distrust when I was saying that I had all the information from KU<sub>i</sub>, and I was going to apply for scholarships," she said.
This feeling was familiar to Aurora Marin, Leoti junior. When college counselors came to her high school, they advised her to go to community college, implying that a four-year college, such as the University of Kansas was not even an option, she said.
Marin was the only student from her graduating class to come to the University, and she earned a scholarship. She founded the first Latina sorority on campus, Sigma Lambda Gamma and recently was accepted in the Western Washington University Marine Biology Program, a prestigious semester-long, all-expenses-paid program.
Whether a student has parents holding doctorates or a grade school education, the emotional support of the family can make a difference.
Marin's parents worked hard to provide the opportunity for their eight children to go to college. All but one of the children, who is in the Navy
SEALS program, are going to college, or have already graduated.
"My parents know how hard it is to study," Marin said. "And they try to support us in every way. They gave us everything so that we could go to college and have a better life."
Olson said her parents were not able to support her. She has to be careful about the words she uses while talking to them, because they can't understand some of them, and she doesn't want to sound arrogant.
"My relatives don't understand the amount of time and effort I put in school and get offended if I don't visit them often enough," Olson said.
Olson wants to go to graduate school to continue her research on left-handedness and eventually earn her Ph.D. She said she owed a big part of that decision to the Ronald McNair Baccalaureate Achievement Program that has encouraged her to continue her academic life.
their one. Olson's challenges are particularly daunting, because she has three children of her own, and she is older than most undergraduate students. She views it as an advantage.
The program has helped universities identify students who have the potential for success in graduate study but who need support and preparation academically, financially and socially during their undergraduate years in order to be competitive for admission to graduate programs. About two-thirds of its participants are first-generation students, according to the program's newsletter.
The McNair Scholars Program was designed to prepare first-generation, low-income college students, or those from ethnic groups traditionally under-represented in graduate education, to pursue graduate studies.
Aron Carlson, Lenexa junior, who has been in the McNair Program for two years, said that before joining the program, he didn't think he could go to graduate school.
"It boosted my confidence and made me feel that I was in the right place," he said.
Marin, who was accepted to the program this fall, said the program helped her keep organized and motivated.
"A lot of people don't take undergraduate degrees seriously. But it's the basis for everything." she said.
Ianya Kooi, project coordinator of the McNair Program, said that out of all the services provided by the program, just supporting the students during their hard times and understanding them was the most important.
Kooi said she wasn't expected or encouraged to go to college,but she always knew she wanted a different path from the rest of her family.
Despite the challenges, Kooi was the first person in her family to attend college and the only one among her many cousins, aunts and uncles to have earned a master's degree.
Karen Ohnesorge, Student Support Services coordinator, said that first-generation students were less likely to complete their B.A. degrees because their families could not help them with financial aid or answer questions about the college experience.
SSS provides students personal academic counseling, as well as pre-major and financial-aid advising and free tutoring across the curriculum during four years of college. If the students are thinking about going to graduate school, they are referred to the McNair program, Ohnesorge said.
McNair program, "McNair has a wonderful record of placement of students into the graduate schools of their choice," Ohnesorge said. "They provide an important networking, otherwise not available to students, and opportunities of getting mentors and writing academic research."
about the college support Student Support Services and the McNair Program are sister programs united under the umbrella name TRIO with the program Upward Bound.
Upward Bound is a TRIO program for high school students, which prepares them for college and includes academic enrichment sessions, tutoring, campus visits and various educational field trips.
Megan Palmer, associate director of Upward Bound, considers the summer component the highlight of the program. It teaches students academic and social skills and introduces them to college life.
The main purpose of the program is to overcome parents' resistance and to give students the motivation to go on. The placement rate for graduating seniors of the program is 85-90 percent, Palmer said.
"It gives them confidence and convinces them that they have the right to be here," she said.
Some students are led up through the academic ladder by several programs, starting in the Educational Talent Search and finishing in McNair. Some have family networking in one or several programs. Olson's two children, Shawn, 18, and Michelle, 16, participated in Upward Bound this summer while she was doing her research in McNair.
"They grew up during this time, matured both academically and in the way they associated with people, and they became more responsible," Olson says.
Anders, a former Upward Bound student, still keeps her connection with the program, dropping by when she has time. She said she already was thinking about going to college while in high school, but Upward Bound's summer program gave her the necessary push toward college.
"I'm happy that I'm breaking the cycle for my family, my younger brother and sister," she said. "And Upward Bound definitely opened to me the door to education."

Baseball team to make up for rainouts against WSU
By Matt Tait sports@kansan.com
Kansas sportwriter
As a result of two rainouts against Wichita State last week, the Kansas baseball team is scheduled to play a game at 7 tonight against Rockhurst College at Hoogland Ballpark.
The game, although officially unscheduled, was placed on the schedule at the beginning of the season as a possible "rain game," or one to be played in case other games were canceled.
The Jayhawks, 10-30 overall and 4-20 in Big 12 play, have lost a school record 12 games in a row.
The Jayhawks were swept last weekend in three games by the Oklahoma State Cowboys.
There have been few player highlights this season. Sophomore Brandon O'Neal pushed his hitting
pushed his batting streak to nine games and tied for the team lead in home runs with four. Sophomore John Nelson got back into the swing of things at the plate when he hit .556 against Oklahoma State. Center fielder

harrison Hill also came alive at the plate, hitting .440, including his first two extra base hits of the season — a triple and a double.
Despite the several offensive accomplishments and mostly solid defense, the end results have still been losses.
The players and coaches are having a tough time accepting the losses but are still looking forward to the chance to snap the streak.
"I know it's hard for the guys," Coach Bobby Randall said. "But there are only two things we can do—keep working hard and always keep fighting."
Kansas pitcher Rusty Philbrick, who will take the mound for the Jayhawks, said he was looking forward to a good performance.
"Everyone's wanting to end the streak," Philbrick said.

Senior leads tennis talent

Kris Sell has been a vital part of the women's tennis team ever since her arrival at the University of Kansas in 1995.
The Moorestown, N.J., senior stood out her freshman year with a 22-13 singles record and an advancement to the semifinals of the Big Eight Indoors, her first collegiate tournament.
Sell was then named to the Big 12 All-Conference team as a sophomore, and in her junior season, she finished the season 32-10, the most singles wins on the team. She finished second in singles last fall in the Central Regional and had the best fall record. 14-5.
Ever since then, she has been unstopable.
Freshman Cheryl Mallaiah, Sell's doubles partner, said Sell had helped her adjust to college tennis.
said. "She's helped me get through the big matches."
"We really work well together," she
This spring, Sell, ranked No. 27 nationally, has defeated six ranked players, including two upsets of two players ranked No.4.
"In the beginning, I was very intimidated to play higher-ranked players because I was not ranked before," she said. "They are all really good, and I have to be, too."
On March 7, Sell also reached another first in her career: She was named Big 12 player of the week.
Coach Garrity said she was proud of the way her No.1 singles player had performed this season.
In high school, Sell lost in the state finals as a freshman. After this, it was clear that tennis would be in her future. She left New Jersey and attended the rest of high school in Florida at the Palmer Tennis Academy where her younger sister Kathy also enrolled.
"I feel that she is as good as any player in the country," she said.
"The tennis in New Jersey wasn't all that good, and I wanted to play at a top school," she said. "So we went to Florida."
After completing high school, Sell said she wasn't interested in coming to Kansas.
"I had never been to Kansas before, and I had no interest in visiting," she said. "But I did, and when I did, I fell in love with the school."
Throughout her career at Kansas, Sell has been coached by three different coaches, but one coach stands apart from the others.
Last year, Sell's older sister, Jenny Garrity, was named as the new head coach. Garrity said she had heard good things about the Kansas tennis program.
"I knew about the program from Kris, and I knew it had a high level of athletics," she said. "It's nice to witness Kris' senior year with her."

Spring practice for kickers differs from rest of teammates
Pelfanio, Garcia forgo full-contact practice
By Michael Rigg
mtrigg@ukans.edu
Kansas sportwriter
Punter Joey Pelfanio's days are admittedly easy: go to football practice early to work on his kicking game, sit on the sidelines for two hours while the rest of the team practices, then go home.
Place kicker Joe Garcia thought of a more creative way to spend his practice time. He spent a hefty portion of Saturday's practice playing with a fan's dog.
While spring practice means full-pads practice and hard hitting for the rest of the Jayhawks, Garcia, Pelfanio and the rest of the kickers are left on the sidelines as observers.
"I own a boxer." Garcia said, "And I'm looking for a woman boxer for him just like that one, so I was just playing with her and checking her out."
"We mostly just try to stay out of the team's way and out of trouble," Pelfanio said.
So goes a day in the life of a kicker
But the lack of activity doesn't mean that the kickers don't get any of the glory in the spring. Garcia will appear in an IMAX short film about Kansas City, Mo., which premieres May 1.
The short film features Garcia kicking at Arrowhead Stadium as a member of the Kansas City Chiefs.
The Chiefs didn't want to use their own players because the film will run for
seven years, so Garcia appears in a Chiefs uniform with no name on the back.
"If the Chiefs draft me, then it'll be true," said Garcia, who co-stars with wide receiver Harrison Hill and tight end Jay Ferguson in the movie.
Garcia is hoping to improve his performance after what he said was a subpar 1998 season.
Garcia missed three field goal attempts in last fall's game against the University of Alabama-Birmingham.
"I feel good about my kicking, but I can be a lot better," said Pelfanio, who was the seventh-ranked junior college punter last season. "I just need to keep working."
Garcia said he tried to kick 20 balls per day from every makeable distance.
Pelfanio is trying to get acquainted with the team after transferring from Sacramento Community College.
Pelfanio also has taken over as place kick holder, a job Hill had last fall.
"I used to hold in junior college, so it's not completely new to me," Pelfanio said. "I like it because it gives me a chance to get out on the field more."
The Jayhawks practice at 3:20 today. Kansas will have a full-contact scrimage tomorrow, complete with officials as the team prepares for Saturday's spring game.

Commentary
Sports activities not much more than kids' games
Despite the T-shirts that say otherwise, sports are not life. Take away basketball or football or golf or hockey, and the rest is more than just details.
This thought pounded my consciousness last weekend, which I spent at my mom's house in Durham, N.C.
The buzz around the Triangle area — which includes Durham, Raleigh, and Chapel Hill — surrounded the decisions of Duke sophomores Elton Brand and William Avery to become the first two Blue Devils to enter the NBA early.
With the University of North Carolina about a 20 minute drive down Highway 15-501, there is never a shortage of comments from obsessed fans about the local college basketball scene. I spent part of last year's spring break — during the NCAA Tournament — at my mom's, and the things I saw and read make the Kansas-Missouri rivalry look downright civil.
Here are a few examples:
■ My mom and I took a walk in downtown Chapel Hill the day after. UNC clinched a spot in the Final Four and Duke missed out by losing to Kentucky. A restaurant used its front-window advertising space to rip Duke point guard S t e n i c e w o J w o j ch l e c h w o s k i s i 'Look at Wojo, what a player, what a

■ Brad Frederick, a UNC walk-on with whom I went to high school, once described the rivalry like this: "It's beyond hate. I'd root for Russia if they played Duke. I root for their bus to crash." I'm not sure he was exaggerating.
"This doesn't happen at Duke," my avid Blue Devil fan of a stepfather told me. "The corruption of college basketball is complete now that it has reached Duke. They should just scrap the whole thing and turn it into what it is: a minor league farm system for the NBA."
reader," the sign said in small, cursive writing. Then, in bigger, bold block letters: "WHAT A LOSER!!!"
And the scariest part about what my stepfather Alan said was that he's not the worst of the bunch, not by a longshot.
He's a highly rational person, one of the most intelligent people I've ever met. He even has a degree from UNC and a son who is a freshman there.
Duke fans reacted to Avery's and Brand's departures the way you would expect a father to react if his 6-year-old daughter came home with blue hair, a barbed wire tattoo and plans to move out.
In many ways, he may be the most discerning Dookie in Durham.
I argued with him for a while but then realized it was wasted breath. You'd have a better chance convincing a Serb to spend the holidays with Croatians than you would talk sense into a Dookie about the Tar Heels, or vice versa.
But that fact goes the way of toilet paper when you realize that in the Triangle area, where so much is based on which shade of blue you wear — the lighter Carolina shade or the darker Duke tint — there is no such thing as neutral. You're a Blue Devil, you're a Tar Heel, or you stay the hell out of the way.
Geez.
Don't get me wrong, it's great to root for your team and sometimes our loyalties make us do crazy things. Heck, just last October I broke my phone against the wall when Javy Lopez hit a home run in the bottom of the ninth against my beloved Cubs in the playoffs.
but keep perspective. Sports are fun. That's why we follow sports, that's why we buy the tickets and watch the games.
I understand more easily the feelings of athletes such as Brad, who are directly involved in these souped-up kids' games, but the rest of us need to remember that's exactly what they are.
Kids' games.
Kids games.
The rest is life. This is just details.

Make big changes, and solve big problems in June. By August, you'll be ready to settle down. In November, you'll want to put in a few corrections and get rid of stuff you don't need, and in December a windfall could help you pay off old bills.

It looks as if a domestic matter will require your attention for the next couple of days. If there's something that needs fixing around your place, that could be it, but it's more likely you're just storing up provisions. Do you have a year's worth of supplies put away yet? If not, make that a priority.
Taurus (April 20-May 20); Today is a 5.
Try not to take sides in a battle between two hot-tempered people. Just keep your opinions to yourself a little while longer. They'll eventually figure it out by themselves. And, if they do it on their own, they won't blame you for making them look silly. Try not to giggle, either.

COLUMBIA, Mo. — Albert White, who led Missouri in scoring, rebounding and assists last season, is expected to announce tomorrow that he will skip his senior year to enter the NBA draft.
Missouri junior to skip senior season for NBA
A 6-foot-5, 238-pound forward, White averaged 18.3 points and 8.7 rebounds for a team that went 20-9 and earned its first NCAA tournament bid since 1995. Conference coaches named him to the All-Big 12 Conference first team, and the media made him a second-team choice.
White, who transferred to Missouri after his freshman season at Michigan, told Athletic Director Mike Alden last month that he was seriously considering professional basketball because of new financial responsibilities. He recently became a father.
White, 21, didn't return to Missouri when classes resumed March 29 after spring break.
White has scheduled a news conference in his hometown of Inkster, Mich.
The NBA draft is set for June 30, and non-seniors have until May 16 to declare themselves eligible.
NEW YORK — Darryl Strawberry's future depends on the results of his last drug tests to be received by the commissioner's office sometime this week.
Drug tests could decide Strawberry's future
Strawberry met Sunday with officials of the players' association, the commissioner's office and doctors, according to several sources familiar with the meeting who spoke on the condition of anonymity.
Baseball officials continue to test the outfielder twice a week as part of the aftercare program that followed his 60-day suspension in 1995 for a positive test for cocaine use. Strawberry has not tested positive for illegal drugs since then, the New York Yankees last week.
Yankees' general manager Brian Cashman said Monday that the team had not heard any new information from the commissioner's office on Strawberry, who was tested April 1.3 and again later in the week, after his arrest in Tampa, Fl., on charges of cocaine possession and solicitation.
“As of right now, he is not resuming work,” Cashman said Monday. “From the club's perspective, he's got his legal issues and personal issues to deal with. It's best for him at this particular moment to deal with that. Baseball is second right now.”
Strawberry, 37, was at the Yankees's training camp as part of the extended spring training program. He was still rehabilitating from colon cancer surgery in October.
Vikings player faces arraignment for assault
ST. PAUL, Minn. — Minnesota Vikings safety Orlando Thomas, charged with assaulting his wife, is expected to be arraigned in Louisiana on June 24.
The domestic violence charge carries a $500 fine and a six-month jail term. The charge means Thomas must comply with the NFL's violent crime policy, which includes mandatory evaluation and counseling.
He was arrested Friday night after his wife, Demetra, called the sheriff's office in Acadia Parish, La., and said she had been assaulted. She was treated at a hospital.
The 26yearold player was born in Crowley, La., and owns a home in the town, which is 140 miles west of New Orleans.
On June 29, 1997, he was arrested in Crowley and charged with inciting a riot and disturbing the peace, the Saint Paul Pioneer Press reported. He pleaded no contest and was ordered to pay a $100 fine, court costs and do 50 hours of community service.

SOMERSET, Ky. — Former Kentucky football player Jason Watts was sentenced yesterday to the maximum 10 years in prison for an alcohol-related truck crash that killed a teammate and another young man.
SCORPIO
Commonwealth's Attorney Eddy Montgomery said that while he appreciated Watts' willingness to take responsibility, "as a prosecutor, I can't look past the fact that two people have died."
Earlier, Watts' lawyer, James Lowry, had argued that Watts' willingness to take responsibility for the deaths of his friends should merit a lighter sentence, if not probation.
Watts was immediately returned to jail. The Nov. 15 crash on U.S. 27, north of Somerset, injured Watts and killed teammate Arthur Steinmetz and Eastern Kentucky student Scott Brock.
Watts was hospitalized for a week with an arm laceration, visible yesterday when he was dressed in a blue jail jumpsuit. He was kicked off the football team and left school briefly before returning in January.
Watts, who turned 22 Monday, has been in the Pulaski County Detention Center since March 31, when he pleaded guilty to reckless homicide and volunteered to start serving time immediately.
The crash darkened Kentucky's most successful football season in years, one that climaxed with an appearance in the Jan. 1 Outback Bowl. Watts, a senior from Oviedo, Fla., played a key role in the team's success.
Watts' shoulders slumped when the judge sentenced him, and given a chance to address the court, Watts choked back tears as he said, "I want to say I'm sorry to all the people I let down."

Softball team aims at .500
'Hawks to battle SW Missouri State in doubleheader
By Brandon Stinnett sports@Kansan.com Kansan reporter
The Kansas softball team will be trying to reach the .500 mark for the first time since March 19 today when it faces Southwest Missouri State in a doubleheader at Springfield, Mo.
The Jayhawks (22-23) have made finishing above .500 a priority this season.
"We talked about the fact that we really need to look at making some new goals," Coach Tracy Bunge said. "We want to get back to .500 and get into the top six in the conference."
Kansas is eighth in the Big 12
with a 3-5 record. Kansas had lost nine of its last 12 games the first time it faced Southwest Missouri State this season. The Jayhawks defeated the Bears, 1-0, on March 19 in the Airtouch Capital Classic. Junior Sarah Workman was the winning pitcher in the game, striking out seven batters in seven innings.
"Southwest Missouri State is a team that has always played KU tough," she said. "They get especially fired up for us."
Bunge said she expected another close game.
The Jayhawks will enter today's game on a five-game winning streak. Workman has won her past five games, and the Jayhawks' bats have come alive.
Kansas scored 12 runs on 19 hits in two wins against the University of Missouri-Kansas City on Sunday, 7-0 and 5-3.

"We get along really well, and it's easier because she knows me so well," she said. "It's nice to end my career with someone I know."
Sell said having her sister as a coach didn't faze her.

Injuries continue to slow down Sell

"Some days are challenging and others are rewarded," she said.
"Kris needs to be both pushed and supported."
One of Garrity's most important
coaching moments came when
Sell strained two ligaments in her
ankle. Sell sat out four matches,
in which Kansas went 2-2.
Sell said since the injury, she had doubted her playing ability and still wasn't at top form.
"I want to be back at the top so bad," she said. "I just need to keep my focus and get my confidence back."
Since returning, Sell has gone 5-4 and has compiled a three-game winning streak.

with a degree in sports management. Sell's tennis career also will come to an end. Sell said she'd like to work in an athletics department or maybe even be a coach.
"When I'm playing well, I have my focus and my confidence, and that's my biggest win," she said.
Sell's final goal as a Jayhawk is to compete at the NCAA tournament in singles. She has never qualified before, but she's confident she can this year.

Baseball team to play Division II Rockhurst
Continued from page 1B
It is led offensively by third baseman Mike Simpson, who is hitting 478 with 17 home runs and 62 RBI.
"And knowing that it's not a Big 12 or top-25 opponent will hopefully relax us and allow us to play solid baseball."
Rockhurst is a member of the NCAA's Division II and has a 26-11 record.
If Kansas senior Chris Williams makes an appearance from the bullpen, it will be the 67th of his career. That mark will tie him with Chris Corn for fourth place on Kansas' all-time appearance list.
A win tonight also would bring Randall to within one win of the 400-game win mark of his career.
Kansas' next action will come this weekend when it travels to Texas A&M for a three-game series. The Aggies are ranked third in the nation and are in first place in the Big 12.

Edited by Liz Wrister
While I agree with Spencer Duncan that home football attendance needs to be improved, I need to set the record straight on a few facts that were misrepresented in his Tuesday Kansan column.
Listed below are his points with accurate information listed below:
First of all, as a prelude to his comments about ticket prices and promotional strategies, Spencer indicated the game against "Colorado on ABC was embarrassing." The Colorado game was not on ABC. The Oklahoma State game was televised by ABC.
The base price for reserved season football tickets (including next season) has changed little in
- Spencer Duncan: "Stop raising ticket prices... The prices constantly are changing"
three years and will be basically the same next year as it was in 1998. We have added one additional game next season (seven home games, instead of six), but single-game public tickets have not changed since last season. See below regarding the change in single-game student tickets.
Spencer Duncan: "Discounts. There are no huge discounts for families, low-income individuals and large groups."
As the KU ticket brochure has listed for several years, a family ticket has been available for the discounted rate of $40. This has covered two adults and four children.
Also, contrary to what Spencer implied, University of Kansas Athletic Corporation does offer special reduced rates for groups.
Spencer Duncan: "Let
students in for free during certain games."
This has been a common practice for several years. Any student who buys a student combo ticket has received one additional ticket to the season opener at no cost. Also, Spencer seemed to indicate that students are not getting a break on price. It was announced earlier in the year at a KUAC Board Meeting that student single-ticket prices would be decreased next year from $10 to $5.
A simple phone call to the Athletics Department checking facts and plans for the upcoming season would have saved the printing of this inaccurate and misleading information.
Doug Vance University of Kansas Assistant Athletics Director/Media Relations
I want to bring to light some of the facts that were not present in Spencer Duncan's commentary yesterday to the Athletics Department on KU Football attendance.
First, this year's home schedule includes seven home games. General public season ticket prices increased by only $18 and not $25, which is the non-conference opponent ticket price. Buying a season ticket provides a price break of $24 compared to buying a ticket to each game individually, which would cost $199 for the season.
Spencer Duncan failed to mention that the KU Football Family Zone season ticket admits two adults and up to four kids for only $280 for the whole season. That is $40 per game for six people to get into Memorial Stadium, which averages out to $6.66 per family member each game. Not a bad price for family entertainment.
The group ticket price for youth is only $5 per child under the age of 18. The group ticket price for adults is $10 per adult. Both prices are 50 percent savings off the regular ticket price. In contradiction to Spencer's
comment, I believe that represents a "huge" discount. As for the low-income youth, the department has a program in place this season for these kids to receive free sponsored tickets to KU Football games and a free T-shirt.
The student football single game ticket price actually was cut in half this year from $10 per game to $5 per game. A "football-only" season ticket is $35, down from $4 a year ago.
In addition, there are 6,300 students on campus each year who have both basketball and football season tickets. If all of these students used their football tickets, which they already own, then the student section would be very full and spirited on game days. However, many Sports Combo students decide not to use the football portion of their combo tickets. It's not a matter of selling more student tickets but of students going to the games and actually using their tickets.
In the same paper yesterday, there was an article about a new student spirit group for athletics called HAWK Club. It stands for "Helping
Athletics Win at Kansas" and its primary purpose is to get students more fired up about football at the University. I think this is a great idea and should be supported by students.
One deal I know of and plan to take advantage of when I graduate this year is the "Recent Grad" season ticket. It's a half-priced season ticket, $88, for any person who has graduated from the University in the past five years. Now that's a pretty friendly young alumni offer.
By the way, the Colorado game last year was on Fox Sports, not ABC. If Spencer Duncan was referring to the Oklahoma State game on ABC, the department provided free admission to the home opener to all KU faculty, staff, and students with a KUID. As I recall, the advertising said it was a way of thanking the campus for putting up with all the construction on the stadium last year.
I suggest that you have your writers check the facts before writing for your paper.

Competition 'awesome' at relays
By Mike Miller sports@kansan.com Kansan sportswriter
The Mount SAC Relays were so big that it took two days before the results were final.
The relays were completed late Sunday night, but results were not released to the press until yesterday afternoon.
And, with four different competition divisions, some of the athletes did not even know how they finished.
"I jumped 12-6 but couldn't tell you where I placed," said senior All-American Candv Mason.
Though 12-6 was good enough to win the Big 12 Championships last year, it didn't even give Mason a top-10 finish in the women's pole
The men's and women's track teams spent four days in southern
vault.
"It was awesome competition," she said. "I just think we were out there wav too long."
TRACK AND FIELD
Normally, the team leaves the day before a meet starts, and athletes compete the next day.
his heat in the 800-meter run, had mixed feelings.
"It was OK," he said. "I wish I could've run earlier in the week, but I'dn't mind too much."
Did the extra time affect some performances?
Gruher's time of 1:49.02 was the
Sophomore Charlie Gruber, who finished 13th overall, eighth among collegians, and second in
sixth best time in school history.
"I was happy with the effort, but it seems like I'm disappointed if I don't set a personal best
every time." he said.
International teams from eight countries and 21 ranked men's and women's teams made this the deepest meet the Jayhawks will compete in this season.
But the Jayhawks had four athletes establish team-best marks
last weekend.
Sophomore Eric Patterson ran a season-best 14.34 in the 110-meter hurdles, placing seventh in his heat.
Tomlin, who ran a personal best of 21.46 in the 200 meters, finished sixth in his heat.
Sophomore Marlea Woodman placed eighth in her discus heat, throwing 155-2.
Senior Kevin McGinn ran a personal best of 3:49.14 in the 1,500 meters, finishing 15th overall, 10th among collegians and ninth in his heat.
"From first place to last place was a gap of eight seconds, so it was just like guys crossed the finish line one after the other," he said. "The big boys really show up for this meet."

Los Angeles in line for NFL franchise
The Associated Press
LOS ANGELES — The NFL wants to put its 32nd franchise in the Los Angeles Coliseum.
That does not guarantee, however, that pro football will return to Los Angeles. Still to be determined is an ownership group for the new team, which must satisfy other
NFL owners with its stadium and financing plans.
nancing plans. NFL commissioner Paul Tagliabue announced the league's intentions yesterday at a news conference in front of the Coliseum.
NFL
Eleven team owners, members of the league's expansion committee, were on hand.
opposed putting a team back in the Los Angeles Coliseum apparently had unpleasant memories of their teams playing the Raiders there.
The Los Angeles area has not had a pro football team since the Rams, who played at the Coliseum before moving to Anaheim, left for St. Louis and the Raiders returned to Oakland, both after the 1994 season. Some NFL owners who have
"I think there were owners who had their teams play against the Raiders here a few years ago who felt that there was a safety issue, a rowdiness issue." Los Angeles Mayor Richard Riordan said after he and other civic and business leaders met Monday with the expansion committee. "Those are the ones who have changed their minds."
Who would own the new team also remains a large question, and there is no guarantee that Los Angeles will even get a team. The owners, well aware that the area represents the nation's second-largest TV market, voted 29-2 last month to spurn a bid by Houston and award the franchise to the Los Angeles area on a conditional basis.
The NFL gave Los Angeles until Sept. 15 to put together an ownership and stadium package. If a deal can't be reached, the new team, which would begin play in 2002, probably will go to Houston.
Hampton coach alleges racial bias in lawsuit
The Associated Press
NORFOLK, Va. — A women's basketball coach and two others have filed a $30 million lawsuit alleging racial bias in their detainment by Lubbock, Texas, police investigating a scam.
The lawsuit filed Monday contends that police engaged in racially discriminatory behavior when they detained Hampton coach Patricia Bibbs, her husband, Ezell, and assistant coach Vanetta Kelso on Nov. 16. All three, who are African Americans, said they thought race played a role in how they were treated.
"The city of Lubbock and its police department have known and tolerated the selection and retention of police officers who have exhibited racist attitudes toward African Americans and other minorities," the lawsuit said.
The suit also contends that police violated the constitutional rights of due process, equal protection and protection from unreasonable and illegal arrests, searches and seizures.
Their attorneys, including O.J. Simpson lawyer Johnnie L. Cochran, filed the suit in U.S. District Court.
The Bibbses and Kelso were detained Nov. 16 outside a Lubbock Wal-Mart by officers responding to a customer's complaint that someone tried to scam her. The three were handcuffed and held for several hours.
Police studied security tapes from the store, determined that the Bibbses and Kelso had no contact with the shopper and said no charges would be filed.
The Hampton team was in Lubbock for a Nov.17 game against Texas Tech.The game was canceled.

Ripken on disabled list
Back pain forces third baseman out
The Associated Press
BALTIMORE — The words, in tiny type on the transaction list, had never before been written:
BALTIMORE ORIOLES —
Placed 3B Cal Ripken on 15-day
disabled list.
Ripken, baseball's iron Man, went on the disabled list Monday for the first time in his 19-year career. The move, made because Ripken has a sore back, is retroactive to Sunday.
“It’s remarkable he’s gone this long without being put on the disabled list,” Orioles’ general manager Frank Wren said. “The pounding he takes, the work ethic he has, it’s just amazing this had not happened before.”
While playing in a record 2,632 straight games from May 1982 to September 1998, Ripken endured all sorts of bumps and bruises — in addition to two sprained ankles and a twisted knee.
But the chink in his armor apparently is located at the base of his spine.
The third baseman missed his fourth game this season Sunday because of nerve irritation in his lower back and immediately traveled to Cleveland to receive treatment from Henry Bohlman, professor of orthopedics at Case Western University.
Ripken, 38, received a cortisone shot and was advised to stay off the field for the next couple of weeks.
"Right now we're going with rehabilitation and therapy. He will get a few more cortisone shots, relax a little bit and take the full two weeks to work his way back." Wren said.
Wren said surgery was not an option at this time.
Ripken, whose father, Cal Sr., died shortly before the season started, was removed in the third inning of the Orioles' opener on April 5 because of back pain. He then sat out Baltimore's next game — the first game he missed because of injury since his rookie season in 1982.
Ripken also missed the Orioles'
next game and was benched in

night before in New York against

this season and has five errors in
eight games.
"There's no question his back has affected his

he knew it was time to get further treatment.
"He got a cortisone shot the last time he had trouble with his back, during the first week of the season." Wren said. "He wanted to get back quickly, as one would expect. But this time he needs to go slower."
Last Sept. 20, Ripken voluntarily ended his record consecutive games streak by sitting out the Orioles' final home game against the New York Yankees. It was the first game he missed since beginning his record streak on May 30, 1982.
The Associated Press
SAN FRANCISCO — Barry Bonds will be out of the lineup for at least 2 1/2 months after surgery yesterday on his throwing arm.
The All-Star left fielder underwent an operation to repair a triceps tendon in his left arm and a bone spur in his elbow.
"The prognosis is that Barry may return to competition in a minimum of 10 weeks' time," Montgomery said. "Given his history of recovery from previous surgeries, we're very optimistic that he will return without incident."
San Francisco Giants' team physician Bill Montgomery said Bonds was expected to be released from the hospital yesterday and fitted for a brace this week.
This is only the second time in his 12-year career Bonds has been on the disabled list.
It is not certain how Bonds hurt his arm, but Manager Dusty Baker suspects it's just wear and tear.
On Monday an MRI revealed the problems. Bonds skipped that day's game, a 5-4 victory against the Florida Marlins, and got a second opinion from San Jose Sharks' team physician Art Ting, who confirmed the diagnosis.
Bonds spent his other stint on the disabled list in 1992 when he was with Pittsburgh. He had a strained right side then.
"Barry's not one to complain,"
Baker said. "He knew something was wrong, and something was wrong."
The team got the news late Monday night after beating the Marlins. Bonds was batting .366 with four home runs and 12 RBI.
"You can't replace Barry Bonds." General Manager Brian Sabean said. "It will be a test of our character and the depth of our team. It's something we're going to have to deal with and depend on Dusty's ability to mix and match."
After Monday's game, the clubhouse stereo, which usually blares loud music after home wins, was silent.
"We're going to miss him because he creates a lot of things for the team," said Stan Javier, who replaced Bonds in left field.
Schott sells controlling interest in Reds
The Associated Press
CINCINNATI — Marge Schott signed a $67 million deal yesterday to sell controlling interest in the Cincinnati Reds to a group headed by Carl Lindner, currently one of the team's limited partners.
Schott, 70, owns 6 1/2 of the 15 shares in the team's partnership, including the shares that make her the general partner. She agreed to sell 5 1/2 of her shares, including the general partner shares, to Lindner and two other limited partners.
The deal, in which 36.6 percent of the Reds' shares would change hands, values the franchise at about $182 million. The sale is subject to the approval of major league owners, a process that usually takes six to 15 months but might move faster in the case because the purchasers already are in the partnership.
General manager Jim Bowden called it a great day for Cincinnati baseball. He also said he and managing executive John
Allen would remain in place.
Bowden said Lindner, who owns the Great American Insurance Co., played a pivotal role in getting him an extension as general manager last year.
Schott, who will remain on as a limited partner, was ordered by baseball officials last year to sell her controlling interest or face an extension of what amounts to a suspension from most of the team's operations.
Although details of the sale weren't disclosed, a source familiar with the talks, speaking on the condition of anonymity, said Schott would get to keep a luxury suite, an office at the stadium and a group of seats.
However, major league baseball has the right to delete those provisions and is expected to prevent her from keeping an office at the stadium.
The agreement completes four months of meandering attempts by Schott to sell her controlling interest in the team. She

Steve, for $67
million.
reached an agreement with Larry Dolan, the brother of Cablevision Systems Corp.'s chairman, to sell for $65 million
P
Lindner and the two other limited partners,
George Strike and William Reik, sued Schott last week in
Hamilton County Common Pleas Court. The limited partners said she was denying them their contractual right to match the Dolan offer and buy her out.
A judge granted the limited partners a temporary restraining order last Friday, putting more pressure on Schott to reach a deal.
Schott: Signed $67 million deal after pressure from baseball officials
Royals look for elusive home wins
The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Mike Sweeney isn't ready to blame some dark. unseen force.
"I don't see a Kauffman Stadium curse," said the Kansas City catcher.
Oh. yeah?
"We need to stop this curse," said an equally puzzled Johnny Damon.
Whether the Royals are victims of some wicked sorcerer's evil hand or simply not suited for their picturesque house park may, in the end, be impossible to know.
What is known is that the team that led the major leagues with 51 home losses last year while playing
tive games above .500 on the road seems bent on repeating its frustrating pattern, and groans can be heard all the way from the fancy new dugout steps to the highest levels of the plushly carpeted front office.
"We go on the road and win, then we come home and in the same kind of games, we lose," said Sweeney. "It's terribly frustrating."
After failing to hold a lead in the seventh inning Monday night and bowing 6-4 to Minnesota, the Royals were 1-6 in Kauffman Stadium.
Again like last year, they're road winners, going 3-2 in their first trip of 1999.
Last year, despite their consistent failings at home, their 43-38 road record was second in the American League only to the 52-29 mark of the World Series champion New York Yankees.
"How disappointing that it's happening again," Manager Tony Muser said.
Muser spent much of the winter pondering his club's curious inability to win at home. While Muser pondered, workmen worked, upgrading the 26-year-old facility, putting in expensive new suites, replacing most of the original seating and refurbishing and improving the dugout and clubhouse, giving the players' dressing quarters the look and feel of a warm, softly lightened hotel lobby.
But isn't it much too early in the season to start worrying that the same Kauffman curse has again befallen the Royals?
"No, not at all," said Damon, a three-year veteran outfielder who's off to a terrible start. "There’s no way we should be 1-6 at home. We go to Chicago last week and win three. Then we come home and lose two out of three to Chicago. Maybe we try too hard here because we're trying to sell the Royals to the fans. There are no excuses. We have one of the most beautiful stadiums in the world. But we just stink at home."
"You would hope it would be a new year, that it would change." Muser said. "And it is awfully early to say we're going to be a terrible home ball club. But it is a concern. I don't think our club ever came to the ballpark not prepared. I can't figure it out."
Twins' catcher Terry Steinbach said the Royals were still a young team.
"You go through these things at times. The thing you have to remember is: it's a long season, and each game is nine innings," he said.

I will help you with that. Let me look at the image again. It shows three hand gestures, two of which are waving and one is pointing. The waving hand gesture has a blank space below it, while the pointing hand gesture has a small flag above it. I'll use the text from the first line to represent these gestures.
Hand waving:
Hand pointing:
Wait, I see another hand waving in the second image.

1 waving hand (blank space below)
2 pointing hand (flag above)

Women's World Cup drawing fans
U.S.league hopes depend on success of tournament team
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Rarely has the future of a sport depended so much on the achievements of one team
That seems to be the case for women's soccer, at least in the United States, which will play host to the Women's World Cup this summer. For the woman's brand of the planet's most popular sport, this is a pivotal tournament.
And if the American team doesn't fare well, it could mean a farewell to any thoughts of establishing a women's professional league in this country.
"Our goal is not necessarily to get a league," Kristine Lilly, who has appeared in more internationals than any other American soccer player, said Monday at a news conference to unveil FIFA's tournament trophy and the official song for the event. "We want one,
"This World Cup is what we have been waiting for, the moment for people to start watching us and for us to get more fans each and every day."
and if we do well, it will get a league, so that definitely is in the back of our minds. But that's all it can be.
The 1994 men's World Cup — FIFA's most attended event — led to the establishment of the MLS. That occurred even though the American's men's team hasn't been anywhere near as successful as the women. The U.S. women won the inaugural World Cup in 1991 and took the Atlanta Olympics gold medal three years ago.
"When we won the world championship, there was one reporter there," Lilly said. "But after the Olympic gold medal, people began to care about us. If we are not successful, people will still want to see women's soccer, but it might be more difficult to put together (a league)."
Tournament organizers aren't looking that far ahead. Instead, they are emphasizing strong ticket sales, which have exceeded project-
tions.
Initial estimates in 1997 of potential sales were 312,000. The World Cup already has sold more than 325,000 tickets, and the projections are for 475,000. Single-game tickets went on sale Monday.
Marla Messing, president of the organizing committee, said she thought more than 500,000 tickets would be sold.
"I think the 1994 men's World Cup opened the eyes of the U.S. public to what World Cup soccer is all about," she said. "The Atlanta Olympics opened eyes to the power and excitement of women's team sports. We are bringing both of those to bear to show the importance and attraction of this event."
The 16-team tournament begins June 19 with two games at East Rutherford, N.J. More than 44,000 tickets have been sold for that doubleheader, which begins with the United States vs. Denmark followed by Mexico vs. Brazil.
Average ticket sales for firstround doubleheaders not involving the U.S. team are at 14,257.
Other venues are the Rose Bowl,
Foxboro Stadium, Jack Kent Cooke
Stadium, Soldier Field, Spartan Stadium (San Jose, Calif.), Stanford (Calif.) Stadium and Portland (Ore). Civic Stadium.
The other World Cup teams are North Korea, Nigeria, Germany, Italy, Norway, Russia, Canada, Japan, China, Australia, Sweden and Ghana.
"We're ready to put on a party," U.S. veteran Julie Foudy said. "Let's do this huge."
The trophy, designed by William Sawaya, a native of Lebanon now working in Italy, was crafted by hand. It features a spiraling band tapering upward to embrace a soccer ball.
"It's startling, with a single gesture from the ground, aiming high, dancing and rising in a crescendo of movement — just like the growing interest that the world is showing in women's football," Sawaya said.
The theme song was performed live by 16-year-old Billie, who had a song on the British pop chart at No.1 and has a double platinum record. She also will sing the theme, "Because We Want To," at the opener.
Agassi, Becker bow out of Monte Carlo Open
-The Associated Press
MONTE CARLO, Monaco — The Monte Carlo Open lost three of its biggest draws yesterday — Boris Becker, Andre Agassi and Tim Henman.
Becker left the tournament when he learned his father died. Agassi withdrew because of an injured right shoulder. Henman lost 6-7 (5-7), 6-4, 7-5 to Brazil's Fernando Meliigen in the second round.
Becker's father, Karl-Heinz, died of stomach cancer.
"I am very, very sad," Becker said. "I admired my father, and I owe him a lot," Becker said. "In this difficult situation I have to and want to be close to my family. Especially my mother needs me."
Becker plays a limited schedule and beat Cedric Plioine in the first round of the claycourt event. He had been scheduled to play Jerome Golmard of France in the second round.
Agassi, the No. 7 seed, was supposed to have faced Arnaud Di Pasquale of France
today. He was replaced in the draw by Vincenzo Santopadre of Italy.
Henman, the No.3 seed,
failed to take advantage of
a match point against
Meligeni, who has
reached the quarterfinals
of his last two events.
"I don't serve or volley like Henman, so I have to fight in matches like this," Meligeni said. "I am really happy with my play at the moment. I am 28, but I think I can improve a lot."
Henman missed his big opportunity when leading 5-4 in the final set. With a break point and a match

Becker: Withdrew when he learned his father died.
point, Henman made an unforced error, hitting weakly into the net. Meligeni sailed through the next three games.
"Sometimes when I really need to win a game I get impatient," said Henman, who had a first-round beek. "I need to stop taking reckless risks."
"On match point I was anxious and moved round to play a forehand when I perhaps should have hit a backhand." Hemman added. "That gave him a big target."
In the second round, Marcelo Rios, the No. 1 player on clay last year, lost the first set in 19 minutes to Andreel Pavel of Romania but recovered to win 0-6, 4-6, 7-6 (8-6).
Three-time Monte Carlo champion Thomas Muster downed No. 16 seed Thomas Johansson 6-3, 6-4 in the first round. Muster has won a record 40 titles on clay.
"The first 11 games were much easier than the finish," Muster said. "Johansson started to take some risks, and it worked."
Sebastian Grosjean advanced to the second round with a 6-4, 6-0 win against Argentine qualifier Sebastian Prieto. The Frenchman will next play No. 14 seed Tommy Haas.
Paraguay's Ramon Delgado, who beat Pete Sampras at last year's French Open, defeated Jonas Bjorkman 7-6 (7-5), 0-6, 6-4, setting up a second-round match with No. 5 seed Mark Phillipoussis.

The Associated Press
LITTLETON. Colo. — Working around bodies still lying where they fell more than a day earlier, bomb squad officers checked lockers and backpacks for explosives yesterday as investigators tried to piece together one of the deadliest school massacres in U.S. history.
Hurling bombs and blasting guns, two students in black trench coats killed 12 schoolmates and a teacher Tuesday at Columbine High School, most of them in the library. The alleged gunmen, Eric Harris, 18, and Dylan Klebeld, 17, then apparently killed themselves.
Officials were trying to determine it others were involved, and they questioned other members of the boys' group of outcasts, the "Trenchcoat Mafia."
Parents waited for more than 24 hours after the attack to receive official word of their children's fate. Not until yesterday afternoon were the first bodies removed from the scene — those of two victims who died outside the school.
Investigators left the bodies in place overnight so that they could check for explosives and record the details of the crime scene.
"It was a different sort of chaos inside," SWAT Sgt. Hinkle said. "There were fire alarms going off, strobe lights, four inches of water in the cafeteria. We had been told there were bombs in backpacks and there were backpacks everywhere. It was the toughest tactical problem I've
ever seen."

Sheriff's spokesman Steve Davis said 30 explosive devices had been found at Columbine, in the killers' vehicles and at their homes. Late Tuesday, more than 10 hours after the shootings, a time bomb blew up, but no one was hurt.
no one was not.
Nine of the victims were male and four were female. District Attorney Dave Thomas said there was no evidence that the killers targeted minorities, as some students claimed. Only one of the 13 victims was black.
Sixteen people remained hospitalized, 11 in critical or serious condition.
The gunmen's families both issued statements yesterday.
"Our thoughts, prayers and heartfelt apologies go out to the victims, their families, friends, and the entire community," the Klebeld family said.
Harris' parents said: "We want to express our heartfelt sympathy to the families of all the victims and to all the community for this senseless tragedy."
tragedy.
Witnesses said Harris and Klebold targeted athletes and minorities, laughing at their victims and using a racial epithet to describe the black victim. "All jocks stand up!" one of the boys yelled during Tuesday's attack. "We're going to kill every one of you."
Harris and Klebold had juvenile records — they were caught breaking into a car. They completed a program that allowed them to clear their record, Thomas said.
While investigators continued their work, memorial services were held across the city yesterday.
Red-eyed students streamed into the Light of the World Church for a memorial service and a noon prayer vigil.
"How can you reassure someone who has just seen devastation?" said Rochelle Brunsdon of the Jefferson Center for Mental Health. "We're going to talk to people about the experience they've had, how they can go on."
All schools were closed yesterday in the Jefferson County school district, which has 89,000 students and is Colorado's largest. Rick Kaufman, a district spokesman, said all schools except Columbine would open again today.
ESU approves policy without sex bias clause

Kansan staff writer
Despite the disapproval of Emporia State University's Student Senate, ESU President Kay Schallenkamp approved an equal-opportunity policy Tuesday that did not include non-discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation.
entation.
Schallenkamp approved the equal-opportunity policy along with a companion non-discrimination statement that said that ESU did not tolerate discrimination based on sexual orientation. But, according to ESU's University Relations, the companion statement is not legally binding, while the equal-opportunity policy is.
while the equal opportunity clause of the ESU Values Task Force, consisting of faculty, staff and students, submitted the policy and statement to ESU's Faculty Senate, Classified Assembly and Student Senate. The Faculty Senate and Classified Assembly approved both, but Student Senate only approved the non-discrimination statement because it believed that the equal-opportunity policy also should have included a sexual orientation clause.
"We chose to go with what the faculty and staff endorsed," said Cora Hodstrom, director of ESU's University Relations. "At least now we have something that states we don't discriminate."
state. ESU's Student Senate passed a resolution last month that encouraged the university to adopt an equal-opportunity policy that included a sexual orientation clause. In January, the Student Senate at the University of Kansas also passed a similar resolution supporting ESU's policy.
also passed a law that Schallenkamp did not include sexual orientation in the equal-opportunity policy because it would not be supported by state and federal laws. But, she said, there would be grievance procedures for victims of discrimination based on sexual orientation.
Schallenkamp could not be reached for comment.
John Schwenn, Values Task Force chairman and vice president of academic affairs, said that the task force decided to separate the equal-opportunity policy from the non-discrimination statement because of the different procedures individuals would follow if they were victims of discrimination.

Chancellor to reconsider if 'privilege is abused'
By Kristi Reimer
kreimer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Chancellor Robert Hemenway announced yesterday that he had approved the addition of a fall break to the academic calendar beginning in October 2001, but he said the break could be rescinded if students took extra days off.
Hemenway sent an e-mail to all faculty stating that he would recommend that the Board of Regents approve the new calendar at its May meeting. If it does, the University of Kansas will be the first Regents school to have a fall break.
"Virtually all reported that the fall break resulted in renewed student commitment to one's studies and helped to avoid burn-out as the semester was completed," Hemenway wrote in the e-mail.
Hemenway said that in reviewing the proposal, he had studied other universities that had implemented a fall break.
The break would occur on a Thursday and Friday in mid-October. But Hemenway said he would ask the Office of the Provost to monitor the effectiveness of the break to make sure there was no decrease in instructional time.
"If the data show that the privilege of a full break is abused, I will not hesitate to recommend that it

He said he was pleased with the way different governing bodies on campus had worked together on the calendar proposal to ensure that it maintained the number of instructional days, preserved Stop Day and kept the traditional commencement time.
He also praised the addition of an intersession period during winter break.
be rescinded," Hemenway wrote.
"This will allow us to develop opportunities for study abroad, internships, or special research projects," Hemenway wrote. "For students taking such opportunities, we will actually be adding two weeks of instructional time to the school year."
Hemenway; Will work to rescind the break if it is abused
"This will allow us to
The calendar proposal has gone through several versions over a two-year time span, advancing to various stages in the governance system before being sent back for revision.
Carol Holstead, associate professor of journalism, is a member of the Calendar Committee that created the proposal.
"It's a credit to our system that it works, and it's a credit to our chancellor for making KU the first in the Regents system to establish a fall break," she said. "It will be interesting to see if other institutions follow suit."
Holstead said that at times she had been frustrated with the governance process.
"I was really discouraged at one point that it wouldn't happen," she said. "I wondered, 'Why doesnt everyone else get it?' But sensible heads have prevailed here."
Senate, students can influence athletics decisions
She said the Calendar Committee had discussed fall break ever since she joined in 1994. But in 1997, student Jason Fitzell, who has since graduated, made fall break a pet project and drafted a plan.
"He gave us a starting place," Holstead said. "That's when we began to get more excited and saw that it was possible."

Student Senate as a whole may n deal with athletics much, but the outgoing student body president and vice president were successful in their campaign to gain student support for a new campus recreation center.
Kevin Yoder, student body president, said that Student Senate didn't spend a whole lot of time on athletics issues.
Student Senate:
A Closer Look
He said that four senators were voting members of the University of Kansas Athletic Corporation board of directors.
Senate can also make recommendations to KUAC and the parking board about issues such as parking at basketball and football
games and ticket prices. However, Yoder said that student senators had no direct power to make decisions on those issues.

The club will act as the official student booster club for football and non-revenue sports at the University.

Fraternity for gay men to hold interest meeting
A chapter of Delta Lambda Phi, a national fraternity for gay, bisexual and progressive men, may soon be formed at the University of Kansas.
An informational meeting will be held tonight at 7 at the Pine Room in the Kansas Union.
Matthew Skinta, publicity director for Politically Active Queens and editor of Vanguard, the Queens and Allies newsletter, is spearheading the drive to start the chapter. Skinta said the meeting would gauge campus interest in the fraternity.
"It will basically be an informal getting-to-know-one-another, finding out if there's enough interest to attempt chapter formation, as well as a general informational type session about what the fraternity is about," he said.
Skinta said there would be definite benefits to such an organization at the University of Kansas.
"With a fraternity catering to such men on campus, the Greek system would be able to offer the same leadership, service, and fraternal brotherhood to gay, straight and bisexual men that wouldn't be comfortable in the system as it currently stands." Skinta said.
More information about Delta Lambda Phi can be found on its Web site at www.dlp.org.

Tragic events can be stressful to uninvolved
Tragic situations such as the high school shootings near Denver this week have an impact on everyone, but can be especially stressful for those who are going through major life changes, according to Francis DeSalvo, Jr., Director of Counseling and Psychological Services at the University.
"It's not at all unusual for folks to have some pretty profound reactions to a tragedy such as this," said DeSalvo. "Certainly the folks that are from that area would be directly affected, but oftentimes other people who have no connection with Denver or Littleton, Colo., but have recently experienced the loss of a loved one or a significant change in their life can be dramatically affected by a tragedy like that."
DeSalvo said he wanted students to remember that counseling and service staff was available to assist students.
Ninth Street blocked for waterline repairs
"With some support either from us or from their friends, they can typically handle those issues in a pretty direct wav," he said.
The counseling and psychological service is located on the second floor of Watkins Memorial Health Center, and the staff can meet with students, faculty, groups or classes to discuss these issues. The phone number is 864 CAPS.
Students and local residents will have to drive more carefully down Ninth Street for the next few months to avoid sanitary sewer, stormwater sewer, and waterline projects.
The combined stormwater sewer and waterline project between Vermont and New Hampshire streets on Ninth Street began on Friday. The road is blocked off between Vermont and Massachusetts streets, and once that block is complete, work will begin between Massachusetts and New Hampshire streets.
Stormwater engineer Chad Voigt said he thought the project would be finished within five months because the contractor, Wyman & Gottfried of Belton, Mo., agreed to finish the job in 80 working days.
Heather Woodward
"It's a replacement of the current stormwater sewer, and we're adding new lines as well as extending it," Voigt said.
A waterline is being replaced on the same block.
The sanitary sewer replacement project runs from Memorial Stadium, down Maine Street to Ninth Street and then east to Eighth Street. The project was deemed necessary in 1995 when certain sections of existing sanitary sewers became full of storm water during storms.

Police catch rottweiler after dog kills a rabbit
Police picked up a large rottweiler after a Lawrence man reported that the dog killed his rabbit around 10 a.m. Friday in the 200 block of North Sixth Street, said Sgt. George Wheeler of the Lawrence Police Department.
The man told police that he saw the dog in his yard and that he went out to check the rabbit he found it dead. The dog then came after the man, who escaped by jumping a fence, Wheeler said.
The animal was picked up by police and detained at the Lawrence Humane Society.
"What will happen to the dog depends on its record." Wheeler said.
He said if it was declared a "viscous dog," it could be killed.

Treasury official plans to avert future crises
WASHINGTON — The United States and other a major economies have put together a "powerful program of reform" to deal with the worst economic crisis in 50 years and to help prevent future Asian-style currency crises, Treasury Secretary Robert Rubin said yesterday.
Delivering a major policy speech on the global economy, Rubin said the U.S. and its allies were focusing on an approach that would more actively involve the private sector in dealing with crises and help developing countries avoid some of the pitfalls that triggered the recent turmoil.
Rubin said that in upcoming meetings of finance officials from the world's seven richest industrial countries and the spring meetings of the International Monetary Fund, the U.S. would be pushing reforms to help countries handle the huge amounts of money that can flow around the world with the click of a few computer keys.
It was the rapid withdrawal of investor capital that leveled the economies of a number of Asian nations beginning in July 1997. The contagion from that turmoil spread to Russia in August 1998 and then struck Brazil in January.
"There are no magic wands," Rubin said in a speech to the School of Advanced International Studies at Johns Hopkins University. "But over time, the steps we have taken and those we propose constitute a very powerful program of reform," he said.

gender could either report to ESU administration or legal authorities at the state level. But, Schwenn said, victims of discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation could only file a grievance with the ESU administration because state and federal staitudes did not prohibit that sort of discrimination.
Leslie Lewis, professor of English at ESU and task force member, said that she was relieved students and faculty would be able to file grievances. But, she said, it was unfortunate that the equal-opportunity policy did not include sexual orientation.
Lewis said that although most people still didn't understand the reasoning for the omission, task force members knew that, for legal reasons, Schallenkamp would not have signed this bill if the clause had been included.
Christine Robinson, director of KU Queers and Allies, said that she predicted ESU's non-discrimination statement would function as a policy.
"I am pleased to see that the new non-discrimination statement includes 'sexual orientation,'" she said. "Anything less from an institution of higher learning would be unacceptable."
Robinson said that some KU students were concerned that ESU's policy did not protect sexual orientation, and that she was glad the KU administration had continually affirmed its 20-year-old non-discrimination policy that included sexual orientation.

1793 - Philadelphia was the host of the first circus attended by George Washington. It would be years before Congress provided a two-ring circus of its own for the President! Wouldn't this make Newt Gingrich the ringmaster today?
1956 - Elvis Presley made his Las Vegas debut on this night at the Frontier Hotel. With "Heartbreak Hotel" at the top of the pop music charts, one can imagine the excitement generated by the new "King" of rock and roll. Even with a No. 1 hit, Elvis was not well received at the time, by the middle-aged audience.

Haskell leader says farewell to Kansas
President applauds university's progress
By Kristi Reimer
kremer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
In a look at the past and future of Haskell Indian Nations University yesterday, exiting President Bob Martin said he was confident the school had a vital role to play integrating Native American heritage with quality education, but he said there also were challenges to confront.
"In our history we have great stories of sacrifice, perseverance and survival." Martin told about 40 people at a weekly University Forum at the Ecumenical Christian Ministries building on Oread Avenue. "We need to make sure our culture is an essential element of addressing current needs."
months of hot weather and eight months of relatives and friends," he said.
After 10 years at Haskell, Martin will leave in July to teach at the University of Arizona at Tucson, where it's "four
Since Martin became president in 1989, Haskell has become an accredited
four-year university and shifted from a focus on assimilating students into mainstream culture to reinforcing their customs and beliefs.
"Our students have not always been encouraged to practice their traditions and religion," Martin said.
Now a medicine wheel and sweatlodge area are on campus for students to pray and practice ceremonial rites.
The university offers four baccalaureate degrees — in business administration, elementary education, American-
Indian studies and environmental science. Martin said one of his goals had been to increase the number of students graduating with expertise in areas important to tribal leaders.
"That's the potential we have to serve Native cultures," he said.
Martin also said collaboration and partnership had been and would continue to be key elements of the school's success. He said Haskell and the University of Kansas already had begun to form a strong relationship through faculty and student exchanges, joint grants and research projects and programs, such as a master's degree in indigenous studies at the University of Kansas.
Martin's wife, Luci Tapahonso, is an associate professor of English at the University of Kansas and helped to develop the indigenous studies program. She also will be moving to Arizona.
David Shulenburger, provost at the University of Kansas, said the presence of Haskell created the opportunity for a more diverse academic experience and was a huge draw in recruiting Native-
American faculty to the University of Kansas, He said Haskell had opened KU students' eyes to a culture and history they were relatively unfamiliar with.
But he said the relationship didn't exist before Martin was president.
"Bob Martin wanted the relationship to develop, and he worked at it," Shulenburger said. "This university is richer for it."
He also said Haskell needed to increase understanding of Native culture in the larger community.
Among the challenges facing Haskell are identifying more sources of income, making sure congressional representatives are aware of its needs and resolving a dispute with the community about placement of the South Lawrence Trafficway, Martin said.
"The sense that all life is related and deserving of respect, and the attachment Native people have for their ancestral lands, that carries over into all values," Martin said. "That can be hard for some people to understand."

Exotic fashions turn Kansas Union plaza into runway
By Dan Curry and Heather Woodward

Konson staff writers
The geometric gold print of Preeth Reddy's satin Indian dress transfixed the gaze of the Ruston Elementary School in Mission second-grade students.
KU students who gathered along her path could bear the bracelets on her arms clink.
It was breath-taking.
Reddy, Hyderabad, India, junior, and other students transformed the Kansas Union plaza into a fashion-show runway yesterday, as a crowd of about 100 people watched models sashay in earth-toned satins under storm-darkened skies.
The point of the fashion show was fairly straightforward, said Vladimir Sinkov, president of the International Students Association, which sponsored the event.
"it's to show the fashions of different countries." he said.
But onlooker Tiffani Cunningham, Overland Park senior, saw more in the show than visual display.
"This is a chance for people to learn about the diversity we have on this campus and around the world." Cunningham said. "It's a way to increase awareness."

Petition circulating to rename avenue after 'Rockin' Ron'

Kansan staff writer
One of the streets "Rockin' Ron", former KU on Wheels bus driver, used to drive almost every day may now be named in his memory.
For 12 years, Ron Gleason shuttled residents of Stewart Avenue back and forth to campus. Now, some of those bus riders are supporting a petition drive to rename the street to "Rockin' Ron Avenue."

Gleason died in February after suffering from a heart attack. He was 50 years old.
Friends of Gleason, Stewart Avenue residents and students who live on other portions of Gleason's route, including Oliver Hall, want to collect as many signatures as it takes to convince the Lawrence City Commission to rename the street.

dents support the idea.
"Everybody's heard of Ron and they all want to do something nice for him," she said. "Most people have been very receptive to the idea."
George Vogel, Lawrence resident and a friend of Gleason's, said that there were many people responsible for organizing the legwork behind renaming the off-campus road.
"This is an effort that is bringing all the students together for one issue." he said.
Supporters are hopeful the issue will be added to the commission's agenda as soon as possible, so an official change could be made in the near future.
Commissioner Mike Rundle said that the commission could rename a street with a simple ordinance and that because the residents of Stewart Avenue appeared to be supportive, the petition stood a good chance of approval.
"They seem to be on the right track," he said.
Before Gleason's death an attempt had been made to rename the street to "Rockin' Ron Avenue" but failed.
Murphy said petitions would be be distributed throughout residence halls as well as fraternity and sorority houses for those students who were interested in adding their signatures.

Legislation against hate crimes would restore societal imbalance
Every day, minority groups in this country live in fear. It is a sad fact, but fortunately, there is some protection in existing federal hate crime laws.
Unfortunately, that blanket of protection does not cover people who are persecuted because of their gender, sexual orientation or disability. Also as unfortunate, the law only allows hate-crime prosecution if the victim were exercising a federally protected right, such as voting or attending school.
The Hate Crimes Prevention Act of 1999, which is in committees in both houses of Congress, aims to fix these shortcomings. Congress should pass this bill, which President Clinton has promised to sign
The laws would protect minorities who live in fear of persecution motivated by hate.
into law
Some say hate crime legislation is unjust because it singles out certain groups to protect. In truth, however, it only singles out groups that already have been singled out by people bent on their persecution.
When a person who is in one of the protected groups walks down the street, he or she faces an entire class of crime that non-minorities never face. Hate crime legislation.
rather than upsetting the balance of rights, tries to restore rights to those groups that have the balance of an unjust society tipped against them.
But just as important as the actual prosecution of crimes under these laws is the message sent by passing them. The message says the government and the people of the United States have no tolerance for hate-based crime and persecution.
With any luck, new hate crime legislation will make someone think twice before committing another hate-motivated atrocity. Regardless, such laws will breed a more tolerant society.
Nathan Willis for the editorial board
Prosecuting hate leads to quagmire
The federal hate crime legislation now under consideration in Congress is ineffective and should not have any weight in a court of law.
Only a handful of people can and have been prosecuted under this law for several reasons. The first is that it is almost impossible to show an absolute motive. In a murder case, all the prosecution needs to do is show one or more plausible motives. These motives need to be obvious enough that they eliminate reasonable doubt in the jury's mind.
When prosecuting under the hate crime legislation, however, the prosecution needs to show that race was the primary motive. If a crime is not motivated by race but nevertheless is committed against a person of a different ethnic background, it can be prosecuted as a hate crime. This undue prosecution could lead to additional strains between races.
The vague hate crime legislation is unconstitutional and will result in few convictions.
Like it or not, hate is a constitutionally protected right. People are protected by the First Amendment when using racial slurs and becoming members of groups such as the Ku Klux Klan or anti-Semitic organizations. These groups espouse hate, but now, if one of the members is convicted of a crime, he can be prosecuted under the hate crime law just
because he is a member of a constitutionally protected organization.
The hate crime legislation itself also is unconstitutional. The Fifth Amendment says that no one can be tried twice for the same crime, yet that is what the hate crime laws accomplish. If a murder is committed against a minority, the person accused of the murder can be tried under the hate crime law and the murder laws. This is double jeopardy and is unconstitutional.
Hate crime legislation remains broad and vague. With those two combinations, very few people can actually be convicted. Combined with violating constitutional rights and being unconstitutional in and of itself, hate crime legislation should not exist.

Media less responsible for deaths than schools
Perspective
I m responsible for the school shootings in Colorado.
At least that's what a friend said as we watched the horrifying event unfold on television
"Me?" I asked with disbelief.
"You," he said and pointed his finger at me. "The media."
A police spokesman on the scene of the shooting also accused journalists.

As reporters shoved cameras and microphones in his face, he said that the media attention given to past shootings made kids more likely to seek glory by blowing people away
Eric Weslander opinion@kansan.com
By this logic, we can blame media for every thing wrong with the world.
For example, media coverage of Hitler and of Rwandan genocide caused Slobodan Milosevic to try to rid Kosovo of Albanians. Oh, and the recent U.S. Embassy bombings weren't caused by political strife but by the fame of past bombers such as Timothy McVeigh.
It sounds silly when put this way.
High school students in other countries have access to U.S. media, but it keeps happening here and not there.
Of course the ruthless killers in Littleton, Colo., got some ideas from media, but ideas come from everywhere. Besides, mere exposure to past killings is not enough to make someone decide to kill.
Owning a gun is not enough to make someone decide to kill, nor is alienation from peers. a
"bad family life," access to violent movies or video games, or even hatred of a group of people.
Instead, it's some combination of these and other elements. And in all recent cases, the high school or junior high school is the place where the elements come together — and explode.
Most importantly, they feel that murder is the best way to resolve their problems. They don't want to talk to the school counselor.
We must teach to the very soul of the American high school experience to find out why. More and more students obviously feel extreme anger and bitterness toward the institutions that are supposed to help them. Their peers and teachers have become enemies.
This could happen anywhere — even a small, peaceful community, especially a small, peaceful community. The schools in small, peaceful communities don't have any security measures. They will soon, or on their administrator are
They will, soon, or their administrators are idiots.
Maybe my friend was right in saying that media coverage was the main cause of these shootings—we'll never know because the cowardly killers took their own lives, too.
But chastising the media won't prevent something like this from happening again, and it sure won't prevent the news crews from rushing to the scene when — God forbid — it does happen again.
There's no way of knowing who will kill or whv. But where is another story.
The place in the community most in need of change is not the local newspaper or television station. It's the high school.

Tobacco lawsuits flippant
Recently, another smoker won another big lawsuit against another big tobacco company. The California woman claimed that the tobacco company should have warned her of
the risks of cigarette smoking. The jury agreed with her and returned a huge verdict, of roughly $51 million. Although the money won't do anything for her inoperable lung cancer, apparently it satisfies her need to hold someone responsible for what happened to her. Unfortunately, she forgot to allocate some of the blame to herself.
Let me make perfectly clear that I'm not taking the side of the tobacco compa-
Robert K. Funk

nies. I think it's embarrassingly clear that through the years they have suppressed a lot of information about the dangerous effects of nicotine and that they are primarily concerned with making money, despite the harm that their products cause.
My father started smoking heavily in his teens, and he didn't quit until he ended up in an operating room a few years ago. An angioplasty and a healthy attitude have been able to reverse a lot of the damage that was done to him, but many others are not so lucky. In addition, many young people start smoking every day. The recent trend seems to be to blame everything on Big Tobacco. In fact, it has become quite lucrative. But is this honest?
We've always known that smoking excessively is bad for us. Clearly, people in the past weren't privy to the same amount of information that is available to us today, but we've always known
that tobacco is potentially dangerous. Truth be told, tobacco really isn't that bad for you, if you use your head. You can smoke a few cigarettes at the bar, or maybe a cigar now and then, and it's probably not going to hurt you. However, if you don't use your head, things can easily get out of hand. If you choose to smoke three packs a day year after year, you're going to get sick. That shouldn't surprise anyone.
Now, in our litigation-happy society, the smokers are starting to assume the role of victim. They claim that they aren't responsible for their actions, but were merely slaves to their addiction. They pass the responsibility for their choices and actions on to the tobacco companies and their deep pockets.
There's nothing wrong with nailing Big Tobacco. They deserve it.
However, the money should be going to things such as anti-smoking campaigns and educational programs. It should help pay for the tremendous amounts of money that smoking costs our nation in health care every year. It shouldn't be given to these self-made victims. Every time a jury awards a huge verdict, it encourages someone else to file a lawsuit. You can't blame people for jumping on the gravy train. However, we certainly can blame the jurors and legislators who play along. When we're asked to serve as jurors on such cases, we can make smokers take responsibility for their actions. With regards to the lawmakers, we can vote them out of office if they don't hold support legislation that holds smokers responsible for their actions. We have the capability to stop smokers from passing the buck, and its time that we do so.

Circulating gossip violates rights
This letter is addressed to all students regarding recent information that has come to my attention indicating that some students have been involved with circulating personal information about other students which may constitute a violation of University policies.
Before circulating negative information about others, students should be mindful that making false and damaging statements about someone can give rise to personal liability for defaedom.
Such potential liability should cause a responsible student to exercise caution before deciding to circulate by various means, negative information about others.

Watkins thins pool of director candidates
By T.J. Johnson
tjohnson@kansan.com
Kansas son writer
A search is on to find the next director of Watkins Memorial Health Center after the departure of former director Jim Strobl.
Stroble left in December 1997 for health reasons and was given disability retirement last year, allowing the search for a new director to begin, said Randall Rock, chief of staff at Watkins. Stroble had been director of Watkins for 15 years before his retirement.
Jim Boyle, formerly the associate director, has been the interim director at Watkins since Strobl left. Rock said.
David Ambler, vice chancellor of student affairs and the director of the search committee for the new director, said the search began sometime last November. Advertisements and pamphlets about the available position were sent out to notify potential candidates.
Ambler said that there were 65 or 70 applicants.
Some of the applicants did not meet the requirements set out by the search committee, which included a minimum of 10 years of management experience in a health care setting and a medical degree or master's degree in a related area. Candidates who met the requirements were evaluated on the strength of their application and experience.
"The search committee individually reads the applications and makes their own notations and their own judgments on each one of them." Amber said. "Then the committee gets together again and takes a vote and cuts it down to approximately 15 who we want to get more information about."
After meeting for the third time, the committee narrowed the field of candidates to five people. Each of these five candidates will visit campus for two to three days of interviews with the search committee and a large group that will interact with the new director, Ambler said. The group will include employees of Watkins, student leaders and University of Kansas officials, he said.
"We kind of wine them and dine them for two full days and look at them from every angle we can and send them off and bring the next candidate in." Ambler said.
Three of the candidates still need to visit campus for interviews before the search is concluded.
All of the people who interviewed the candidates can send in their comments on each candidate to the search committee. The committee will then meet for a final time to decide which of the candidates are acceptable and which are not.
"From that, I make the final decision and recommend it to the provost and the chancellor and the process will be finished." Ambler said.
He said that the majority of the applicants had met the committee's recommendations and qualifications.
Rock said that he was looking forward to seeing the outcome of the search committee's efforts, something Amber said should happen in the next two weeks.

Earth-savvy 'Hawks fill recycling bins
By Jennifer Reush
jrush@kansan.com
Kanan staff writer
Although today is the official observation of Earth Day, some students at the University of Kansas are working to make sure that every day is Earth Day.
Since 1996, the Office of Resource Conservation and Recycling has assisted departments and living groups at KU with reducing, reusing and recycling their wastes.
Victoria Silva, resource conservation programs manager, said that the office officials put large blue recycling bins in at least 30 buildings on campus. The bins have compartments for office
Students who work for the resource conservation office as recycling technicians also have special arrangements with other offices that don't have the bins, but do recycle on their own.
paper, newsprint and plastic soda bottles.
Silva said she estimated about 10 to 20 percent of the paper generated on campus was recycled through her office.
Josh Burdette, president of Association of University Residence Halls and McCollum Hall resident, said that every residence hall floor has its own blue bin. Each bin has compartments for paper, plastic, aluminum and newsprint.
Each residence hall also has its own
environmental committee, whose members are responsible for emptying the bins periodically and sorting the recyclables.
The bins were placed on the floor lobies so residents wouldn't be tempted to fill the bins with trash, Burdette said.
He said that, on average, 60 to 70 percent of the residents living in the halls used the bins.
He also said that AURH was working to promote recycling with an energy conservation contest among hall residents. Each floor in each hall will be judged on three separate categories—use of water, electricity and recycling facilities. The winning floor will receive a doughnut party.
Some students agreed that many people on campus were using the recycling bins to separate trash.
"Yes, I do recycle," said Anne Marie Kauffman, Overland Park freshman and McColm resident. "I personally don't see people do it, but the bins fill up pretty quick. So I know that they' re doing it."
Other students who do not live on campus also said that they separated their trash.
"I always recycle my newspapers," said Suzy Davis, Lawrence freshman. "I live with my mom, and she recycles. Also, if I drink pop on campus, I'll drop it off."

"Mikhail Baryshnikov has a longer hang time than Michael Jordan," said Kimber Andrews, explaining the physical strain that dancing demands. "Take all the coordination it takes to run, dribble, pass and shoot the ball and then try to make it esthetically beautiful."

Moses described the piece she was to perform. "It builds from joyful and upbeat, to an angstridden song, to a peaceful solo," she said. "Then it becomes very powerful with big drums and walling women."

Andrews, president of the dance company, said it was more than putting on outfits and leaping around.
"It takes real dedication," she said. "It's a real discipline. Not many can carry through with the discipline it takes to be good."
But apparently, some of the KU dancers have discipline.

Students work together to affect athletics policies

ketball tradition here, but we're lucky to get 500 people to show up for games," Henry said. "We're trying to keep stands full, which leads to lower ticket prices for students."
Ticket prices and parking at athletic events aren't the only things on the minds of student senators. Much has been said of the deals that KU has made with Coca-Cola, Commerce Bank and Nike. This spring, thirty senators sponsored a resolution, approved by Senate, asking the University not to enter into financial deals with companies that employ sweatshop labor. They identified Nike as one of those companies.
Henry said that the University was not unique in the deal that it had made with Nike for shoes and team uniforms. Most other schools have

The other hot athletics topic that Senate has been wrestling with this semester has been the recreation center. Candidates for office in this spring's elections made it a hot-button issue, and tempers have flared over the controversial recreation center referendum that students passed by an overwhelming major-
However, the issue isn't new. Mary Chappell, director of recreation services at the University of Kansas, said that the issue had been raised in 1996. She said that the referendum died then because it would have required a dramatic fee increase, because many of the students paying the increased fees would have graduated before the proposed center was built, and because the proposal called for the center to be built on West Campus.
where all their clothes are made."
She said that this year's referendum passed because students had a better understanding of how important recreation is to everyone, and because the fee increases were not as drastic as the original proposal.
Scott Kaiser, student body vice president and member of the Student Recreation Task Force, said that there were three ways for students to make their voices heard about recreation issues. Two of those are open to Senate.
They can become involved with the recreation services advisory board, which is a standing committee which allocates recreation services fee money to Robinson Gymnasium.
Senate can also pass legislation on an issue, Kaiser said. For instance, they could levy a student fee increase to pay for longer hours at Robinson.
Students can also form a grassroots organization to put an issue to a vote, he said.
Senators agreed that although KUAC can seem daunting, students can affect the way their athletics fees are spent.

Lied Center to showcase ethnic diversity
Kansan staff report
The 1999-2000 Lied Center season will feature everything from a Moscow orchestra to a Japanese dance company to a boys choir from Harlem.
But the biggest presentation may be Donald Byrd's "Jazz Train" — a dance theater piece combining Byrd's choreography with commissioned music by names such as Max Roach, Vernon Reid and Geri Allen.
"This is the largest project we'll of ever undertaken," said Jacqueline Davis, director of the Lied Center. "But there is a variety of quality programs that are exceptional."
Many factors are involved in determining which shows come to the Lied Center, Davis said. Input from the program advisory board, Friends of the Lied, and suggestions from the Lawrence community are all taken into consideration. Davis and others also do research by attending shows the Lied Center may be interested in.

And of course money plays a factor; the affordability of a program can often affect its feasibility. The Lied Center generates most its financing from ticket sales, Student Senate, Friends of the Lied and national, regional and state grants.
The 1999-2000 season marks the second phase of the Cultural Countdown, a program the Lied Center has developed to showcase performances by those of different ethnic influences.
"Our aim is to look at different cultural influences as we approach the millennium."
Choreographer Donald Byrd's dance theater piece "Jazz Train" is one of the highlights of the 1999-2000 Lied Center season. The presentation is part of the center's Cultural Countdown that will feature African-American influences during the upcoming season. Contributed photo
Davis said. "We want to take an honest look at their influences on art and honor those. After all, we are a melting pot, and I think it's important for us to segment those influences."
Last season, the Lied Center provided several Latino performance as part of the Cultural Countdown including the Miami City Ballet, Ballet Hispanico, Triangulo and Culture Clash, a Chicano-Latino comedy troupe.

Program pairs architecture students with mentors
By Jeremy Johnson
Special to the Kansan
Oftentimes, experience is the best teacher. At least, that's what the School of Architecture and Urban Design thinks — as evidenced by the school's new mentorship program, whose goal is to give its students a glimpse of the professional architecture world they hope to enter.
The program, initiated this semester, pairs students with mentors from the local architecture community. The students meet with their mentors each month in a professional office setting so they can learn firsthand what goes on there.
"I think until you're in the office and see how it works and develop that familiarity, you're at a deficit," said John Gaunt, dean of the School of Architecture and Urban Design.
Griffiths has been the program's chief organizer. She is responsible for letting students know about the program, contacting the professionals, answering any questions the students or mentors have, and maintaining contact with all participants throughout the semester.
Gaunt originally conceived of a mentorship program more than a year ago, but he envisioned one that was student-organized. He enlisted the help of Katie Griffiths, Olathe junior and student council president for the school.
The work has been worth it to Griffiths, who said the mentorship program served a valuable need for the school's students.
"You have more going on in the professional world than you can learn in school," she said. "So, by creating this program we're trying to bridge that gap so students can see what happens in the real world."
Though the program is in its infancy, both Griffiths and Gaunt said the initial response from participants had been positive.
An assessment of the program will be done at the end of the semester, Gaunt said, but he said he expected it to grow and hoped to have as many as 200 students involved by next fall. So far, 65 students and 14 professional firms are participating.
Amy Stillwell, Columbia, Mo., junior, became involved with the mentorship program because she
"It's been a great experience and it's definitely helped me be able to communicate with architects and give me a lot more confidence," Stillwell said. "Every school should have something like this."
Stillwell has been mentored by Craig Penzler of Glenn Livingood Penzler Architects, 1001 New Hampshire. Penzler said it was important for his firm, because it was local, to be involved.
"We've wanted to heighten our relationship with the school and this has helped us do that." Penzler said.
For Griffiths, the program has given students a renewed school spirit and the University, in general, something to be proud of.
Penzler also said he hoped to be involved in the future and commended the students, Griffith in particular, for their strong desire to organize and get involved in such an effort.
"This is just another way that KU is taking a step toward bridging the gaps between the academic world and the real world," Griffiths said.

Depression disease can strike at any age
By Allan Davis
Special to the Kansan
A friend consistently looks morose or down in the dumps, can't get out of bed, doesn't seem to have fun anymore and has no motivation to do schoolwork. Take it seriously; it could be more than just a bad case of the blues. It could be depression, a disease that can strike any one, at any age, at any time.
John Wade, a staff psychologist and Outreach Coordinator for Counseling and Psychological Services, said that some symptoms of depression included thoughts of suicide, a feeling of helplessness, a lack of motivation, inability to focus on assignments and feeling unable to complete work.
Another symptom that accompanied depression, Wade said, was a tendency to isolate oneself and withdraw socially. People with depression also often find that activities which they typically would find enjoyable just aren't enjoyable anymore.
People with depression also may experience a significant change in eating habits, such as a lessening of appetite. Another indication is a change in sleeping patterns, such as partaking in an increased amount of sleep. Having trouble going to sleep or waking up early in the morning and having difficulty falling back asleep also could indicate a problem.
Treatment for some people may involve medication, Wade said, but that would depend on what the psychiatrist would consider to be appropriate. Treatment usually would involve some form of counseling.
Wade said that often problems could be worked through fairly easily if the person would come in before things appeared overwhelming.
Terry Larson, executive director of NAMI Kansas, formerly the Kansas Alliance for the Mentally III, said depression was one of a number of biological brain disorders. She said that people should not be afraid to take medications to combat depression, just as they would any other illness, such as diabetes.
"It really does take a lot of self-awareness." Larson said.
A National Institute of Mental Health brochure about depression says that the most important thing a person can do for someone that is depressed is to help him or her get appropriate diagnosis and treatment.
The American College Health Association recommends that friends follow the following guidelines when talking with a possibly depressed friend.
Do not try to 'cheer up' the individual.
- Do not criticize or shame, as feelings of depression cannot be helped.
Try not to get angry with the depressed individual.
Try not to get angry with the depressed individual. The Institute says that people with a depressive illness cannot merely "pull themselves together" and get better.
Do not sympathize and claim that you feel the same way he or she does.
"I remember people used to tell me, 'Terry, you have to think positive,'" Larson said. "That's like telling a person in a wheelchair, well, you've got legs, why don't you get up and walk? I'm just this idea that people could, if they wanted to, be better."

Attack helicopters land in Albania
Air strikes intensified against Yugoslav forces
The Associated Press
BELGRADE, Yugoslavia — With NATO missiles striking Belgrade by night and day, the first batch of Apache attack helicopters touched down in Albania on Wednesday as the Western allies intensified their air campaign against Yugoslavia.
The arrival of the long-awaited Apache attack helicopters represents a significant boost in NATO's capability to destroy tanks and troops of Yugoslav forces.
A NATO spokesman said the alliance, bolstered by extra aircraft, was hitting
double the number of targets it struck during the first two weeks of the campaign, now entering its fifth week.
Early Wednesday, NATO missiles slammed into a high-rise building which includes offices of President Slobodan Milosevic's ruling Socialist Party, and eight broadcast stations, one of them owned by Milosevic's daughter. A senior Yugoslav official called the strikes part of a "genocidal flying circus" perpetrated by NATO.
Hours later, NATO launched a rare daytime strike in the capital area, severely damaging a railway bridge over the Sava River a few miles west of Belgrade.
The strikes near Belgrade and the arrival of the Apache attack helicopters signaled NATO's resolve to escalate the conflict until Milosevic accepts a Western-dictated peace
plan for Kosovo, a province of Yugoslavia's republic Serbia with an overwhelmingly Albanian population.
"There's of course risk to us," Army Capt. Mark Arden of Washington, D.C., said in the Albanian capital, Tirana. "But the risks to the Serbs, I would sav, are great."
Ethnic Albanian rebels fighting for an independent Kosovo have regrouped there after the Serbs had driven them from many of their traditional stronghold
A. R.
Milosevic: NATO bombed several of his office buildings
besides the bridge outside Belgrade, two others over the commercially important Danube River also were wrecked around Novi Sad, Serbia's second-largest city. NATO said it was targeting the bridges to prevent the army from resupplying its forces in Kosovo.
Yugoslav officials expressed outrage at the predawn air strike on the 23-story Socialist Party building in Belgrade, calling it a purely civilian target.
"The genocidal, flying circus of the NATO alliance has caused huge destruction," said Goran Matic, a federal government minister. "But citizens of Yugoslavia will not give in — NATO can destroy many more buildings and bridges, claim more human lives, but it cannot take away our freedom."
Domino's founder to use dough to start law school
The Associated Press
DETROIT — Domino's Pizza founder Thomas S. Monaghan spent nearly four decades making a lot of dough. Then he gave it up to work for someone else: God.
Now, after several years of Roman Catholic philanthropy and support of conservative causes, he is spending $50 million to establish a law school that he says will combine legal advocacy and Catholic morality.
"This is one of the most exciting things I've been involved in in my life," said Monaghan, 61. "Certainly, one of the most important. Certainly, a lot more important than selling pizzas, except, of course, that pizza made something like this possible."
The Ave Maria School of Law plans to open in 2000 with about 40 students and seven or eight teachers. It will rent space in or around
Ann Arbor, where Monaghan lives and Domino's is based.
The law school is part of Monaghan's larger effort to promote Catholic education. His foundation runs two elementary schools and two preschools, with another elementary school under construction. He is also building the Ave Maria College, a private liberal arts school.
"I've been very disappointed in general with Catholic education in the United States, particularly how it teaches the faith," said Monaghan, who went to 10 high schools and five colleges and never made it past his freshman year. "I'm afraid that much of it has become secularized."
Some critics, such as the Rev. Robert Drinan, a law professor at Georgetown University, say existing Catholic law schools do a good job of mixing the legal with the spiritual.
World leaders will celebrate 50th anniversary of NATO
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — It took a world war followed by a cold war to get the United States to give up some of its insular ways and look outward.
The nation underwent a remarkable transformation after World War II. Suddenly, faraway crises were America's problem, too. And no more so than in Europe, mother continent to a vast American majority, as she gained protection from her headstrong, grownup offspring in the form of NATO, the North American Treaty Organization.
talk about adapting," exclaimed then President Truman, who coaxed this transformation. "Talk about adjusting. Talk about responding as a people to the challenge of changed times and circumstances."
This weekend, Washington welcomes 42 foreign leaders for meetings marking NATOI's 50th anniversary.
At the start of the alliance, even as the United States was pledging itself to Europe's defense, the country was on the cusp of becoming less European. When NATO started, four in five immigrants came from Europe that's down to one in five today.
imperative was clear. No more would the United States hew to a foreign policy line first characterized by the founders. George Washington's caution — "Europe has a set of primary interests which to us have none or a very remote relation" — was for the past. Thomas Jefferson's injunction against "entangling alliances" would not hold the nation back.
But in the postwar world, America's
Collective security, so long mistrusted in a nation that didn't enter World War II until the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor, became "the foundation stone of all our actions now," as Truman put it.
And so came the U.S.-financed rebuilding of postwar Europe under the Marshall Plan. So, too, the formation of the United Nations in 1945.
And came the Truman Doctrine, proposing "to support free peoples who are resisting subjugation by armed minorities or by outside pressures."
And came NATO, now 50 years old and — unlike the Soviet Union it was formed to contain — still counting.
Also came Korea, Vietnam, Kuwait, Kosovo and more — bold and sometimes all too bloody engagements, some making Americans wish the world could go away once more.
Justices weigh housing choices for those disabled
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Supreme Court justices worried aloud yesterday that mentally disabled people might be "abandoned on the streets" if an antibias law is judged to give them a broad right to live in homelike settings rather than state hospitals.
"What bother's me is writing something like as it works out in the real world, leaves many who need to be in institutions out, abandoned on the streets," Justice Stephen G. Breyer said as the court considered a Georgia case that could yield the decade's most important ruling on treatment for the mentally disabled.
Questions and comments from Justices John Paul Stevens and Sandra Day O'Connor suggested similar concerns, and Justice David H. Souter appeared most hostile to Georgia's side of the case. The hour-long argument session gave no clear indication how the nine-member court would rule.
The court is to decide by late June whether the Americans with Disabilities Act and a related regulation require community placement of the mentally disabled whenever appropriate.
Ruling on a lawsuit by two Georgia women, lower courts said such placement was required unless living up to the 1990 federal law would fundamentally change a state's services to the mentally disabled.
nationwide, about 70,000 mentally disabled people are in state hospitals.
Elaine Wilson and Lois Curtis sued Georgia to get out of a state mental hospital. They had been approved for community-based care but faced long waiting lists. Now in group homes, both women were in the audience that packed the courtroom yesterday.
outer suggested that treating people able to live outside a mental hospital the same as those who cannot is a form of discrimination.
Justice Department lawyer Irving Gornstein, representing the Clinton administration, joined Gottesman in pressing for a more expansive view of the law.
Numerous advocacy groups for the mentally disabled, the American Psychiatric Association, American Civil Liberties Union and 58 former state officials with leadership roles in mental health treatment are lined up as friends of the court opposing Georgia.

Local artists never get the spotlight they deserve. Two artists ready for this spotlight are Thulium and Serry.
Thulium, a rock/pop band from Lawrence/Overland Park, have been together for a few years, perfecting its craft.
Its sound can be likened to that of Better Than Ezra with a harder edge and attitude.
nulum's new EP, *The Moon Needs Pimps Too!*, is a follow up to its previous self-titled album.
In the same tradition, the members of Thulium revive their radio influences to create perfect rock/pop party music.
The Song From Hell begins the EP Lead singer Matt Groebel sings about his troubled relationships in an angst-filled manner. The melody and the guitars make a radio-friendly song, but it doesn't compare to the following song.
The next and best song on the EP is Marci III, the

third installment in their Marci series. Groebe seems to cry out for answers and the guitars perfectly complement the mood of longing he tries to get across. It's what happens when rock is sentimental and done right. The album lets us do it done with catchy
Overall, Thulium gets the job done with catch: rock/pop and its new EP is the proof.
Another artist new on the scene is Serry, whose real identity is Sarah Mayberry.
Serry's unique musical sound and sweetly smooth vocals bring a breath of fresh air to the Lawrence music scene.
Her self-titled debut EP is nothing short of a production gem. All instruments and layers of background effects blend in an ambient harmony.
With a range of influences from Sarah MacLachlan to Kings X, her musical ambitions on this record are difficult to classify.
Serry seems to have a hard time trusting an old boyfriend in the first song *Trust You*.
Serry sings "How will I know if eyes are blind to see? How will I swim when oceans cover me?"
The bass line takes the listener on a roller-coaster ride and then splashes into the vigorous chorus. The only problem is that the guitars aren't as aggressive as they needed to be in the chorus. But overall it's a great song and should be heard live.
The most haunting song on the EP is *Destiny*, which is a simple journal entry reminiscing about a superset.

Serry sings "Majestic clouds covering all that I might see, of my Destiny."
The lyrics were written by her sister Anna and Servv's vocals bring the song alive.

Bad streak ends with successes on mound, plate
By Matt Tait
sports@kansan.com
Kansas sportwriter
Through the players' body language and subtle looks of relief it could be sensed, and through the final result on the scoreboard it could be realized — the losing streak had finally ended.
The Kansas baseball team snapped a 12-game losing streak in dramatic fashion last night by defeating Rockhurst College 5-4 in 10 innings.
"King Kong jumped off some of our backs tonight," coach Bobby Randall said of the team's much-needed win.
The 'Hawks were held in check for more than eight innings as Rockhurst pitcher Jonathan Krysa had given up only two runs on five hits through eight innings.
But in the ninth inning, the team's luck changed. Trailing 4-2, the Jayhawks were down to their final out and Krysa, who had tallied 12 strikeouts, was down to one batter.
John Nelson, who pinch hit in the seventh for the Jayhawks, stepped in to the batter's box and worked the count full before being walked. With Nelson on first the tying run was at the plate, and for the Jayhawks
there would have been no better guy to beat at bat than the team's home run leader, Brandon O'Neal.
O'Neal hit his fifth homer of the season and, as he said, was destined to do it again.
As the ball cleared the fence. Randall, who was coaching third base, leaped into the air.
"We went out
Judging by the jubilation of the Jayhawks' dugout, the team apparently knew O'Neal had it as well.

and played hard, and we were destined to win." O'Neal said.
"I knew I had it," O'Neal said.
"Was that a seen from The Natural?" Randall asked.
"When the light hit the scoreboard in that movie, that was Brandon O'Neal tonight. He had a great game." In the 10th
In the 10th the Javhawks manufactured the winning run by capitalizing on two Rockhurst errors and won the game 5-4.
O'Neal accounted for three of the four Kansas runs, sent the game to extra innings, hit two home runs and extended his hitting streak to 10 games. He also
went to the mound in the top of the 10th and retired Rockhurst three up, three down.
O'Neal's performance earned him the MVP of this game as well as his second win of the season as a pitcher.
His first came in similar fashion a few weeks ago in Oklahoma when he again hit a late-inning home run and retired the Sooners' batters to earn the victory.
Lost in the drama of last night's 5-4 victory was the pitching of Jeff Davis and Pete Smart. Davis and Smart combined to pitch 6/13 innings, and gave up only four hits and no runs.
"Jeff, Pete and Brandon all did an excellent job of pitching for us tonight," Randall said.
The win moves the Jayhawks' record to 11-30 overall and 4-20 in Big 12 play, but more importantly it provides them with some much needed relief going into this weekend's series at
Texas A&M.
"We definitely didn't need to lose to Rockhurst before going down to play A&M," O'Neal
Thanks to his heroics, they didn't.

NBA reality settling in for Pollard
There was Scot Pollard that Friday night in mid-October 1986, sashaying around the Allen Fieldhouse floor wearing a red dress with matching "Revlon Vixen" fingernail polish, celebrating the Late Night festivities with his Jayhawk basketball teammates. Later that same night, at midcourt, he proposed to his then-girlfriend, now-wife Mindy, who burst into tears of acceptance.
Life was good. No worries.
Kansas would finish 34-2 that season. Polkard's solid play for a team that was ranked No.1 for 15 straight weeks — he averaged 10 points and eight rebounds a game — vaulted his NDA 98 status.
And about three months after the Jayhawks season-ending loss to eventual champion Arizona, the 6-foot11, 265-pound Pollard was picked 19th by the Detroit Pistons.
Then reality set in.
H
During his two-year NBA career — which has landed him with the Sacramento Kings after being traded from Detroit to the Atlanta
Mike Harrity sports@kansan.com
Hawks earlier this season, who then released him — Pollard has been shaken and stirred by the sometimes cold reality dished out by a money-making machine such as the NBA. The culture shock of leaving a basketball bastion such as Lawrence, where students camp out for seats weeks in advance and 16,300 raucous fans fill the fieldhouse every game, to play in a league where may be half of the arena is full on game night, half of which arrive late and leave early, hasn't been easy for Pollard.
Mindv Pollard explains.
"When you're in Kansas, and they know who you are and you're doing so well, you have all that confidence," she says. "And then, you get to a place, and they don't play you, then you slowly see all that smiling that he does and the happiness just slowly draining away."
Maybe he he's not as happy as his days at Kansas, but Pollard realizes that things could be a lot worse. He's guaranteed payment on the three-year contract he signed as a rookie, worth roughly $2.3 million. He and Mindy have been bought a home in West Lawrence. And he's even allowed himself one splurging binge—he's getting the 1972 Cadillac convertible, that he named Marvin and drove while he was a student, customized.

Athlete rows her way back to top boat
By Matt James

Kansan sportswriter
Few athletes look forward to a "completely exhausting" three-hour practice. But Tuesday's workout wasn't an ordinary practice, and Laura Hubert isn't just any athlete.
The Lawrence junior earned the No.7 seat in the first varsity boat this week in practice and will help the Jayhawks battle stiff competition this weekend on the West coast.
The Kansas rowing team races Sacramento State Friday in Sacramento, then travels to San Francisco Saturday to face Stanford and University of California-Davis and Santa Clara.
Hubert has been the stroke, which is the pace setter, on the second varsity boat during the spring season, before being moved up to first varsity after Tuesday's grueling seat races.
Stanford and University of California-Davis, and Santa Clara Sunday.
The three-and-a-half-minute races, which are held during practice periodically throughout the season, match individuals against each other by racing the
Rowing
unite eight-person first and second boats, then switching two rowers between the boats and racing again. Coaches can tell from the times who is the stronger rower.
"I'ts very intense," she said. "Even if you aren't the one racing, you still pull as hard as you can because it's good training."
The resilient rower finally fought her way back into shape again and returned to the first boat after Tuesday's performance.
Hubert was involved in one of nine seat races Tuesday to decide boat members for this weekend.
"She works really hard, and she's a real asset to our boat," said Nikia Rosenberger, first boat coxswain. "She won her race and we definitely want the fastest person in our first boat."
Just as the spring season was getting under way and things were beginning to look up for Hubert, she pinched a nerve in her back during a spring break practice in New Orleans, and had to sit out once more.
"It was very frustrating because when I finally got well, it took forever to get back in shape," she said.
Most rowers want to be in the first boat, but Hubert had extra motivation going into Tuesday's seat races. Last year and this fall she had been in the first boat before a kidney infection caused her to miss most of the team's winter training.
"Coaches can tell from the size of the puddle from your ear whether you are rowing hard," Hubert said. "You're not really paying attention to who's in your boat, you just want practice to end."
Being in the second boat on this year's Kansas rowing team is nothing to be ashamed of.
The rowers say the seat races, which at first seem to be relatively arbitrary, are very accurate.
"It didn't bother me at all," Hubert said of her stint on the second boat. "This year the second boat is a lot more competitive, and we have good rowers in every boat."
That second boat will be crucial as Kansas tries to quality for nationals. The second boat, along with the first boat and varsity four, make up the team competitors.
"All year we've been racing intensely, if we keep it up this weekend we should do fine." said Tara Lynn, Independence, Mo., junior. "We need good competition to get into nationals and we should get that this week."

OVERLAND PARK—Final approval was given yesterday to a plan for all 310 Division I schools to help pay off the largest judgment ever levied against the NCAA.
The Associated Press
The $64.5 million payment stemmed from a class action suit representing about 2,000-3,000 assistant coaches whose salaries the NCAA illegally capped at $16,000 per year.
The payment plan, first advanced last week by the NCAA management council, is
The payment plan, first advanced last by the NCAA management council, designed to head off a ruinous fight between the big- and small-time schools about the suit regarding what the NCAA called restricted earnings coaches.
The major powers, who employed most of the affected coaches, will end up paying roughly $200,000 each. The smaller schools, some of which never even had a restricted earnings coach
an nevertheless voted for the rule and share in the wealth produced by the majors, will be assessed about $80,000 each.
The plan was given final approval yesterday by the NCAA's board of directors and executive committee.
"The subcommittee did an excellent job in developing the plan," said Graham Spanier, chairman of the NCAA board.
"It is a very workable solution, even though there will be schools both large and small that may have preferred a different formula. As the president at Penn State, I would like to
have paid less. But as members of the board, we have to look at the big picture, and we agreed that this is a solution that will work."
The coaches will still have to wait a while for their money.
NCAA
"We hope to have the money distributed within six to eight months, assuming the court approves the settlement and plan of distribution," said Lori Schultz, one of the coaches' lead attorneys. "Until we know the total number of coaches who submit a claim,
we cannot estimate the amount each
extent will receive payment in addition to their actual loss of income."
Most of the money will come from future funds schools get from the CBS contract for the men's basketball tournament. That money, which the NCAA does not have on hand, will be
now working its way through the Indiana Legislature.
The board also looked at modifications of test score requirements used in freshman eligibility standards that were found illegal by a federal judge in Philadelphia.
The board hopes to have a modification of the standards, known as Proposition 16, in place after its meeting in August, Spanier said. The rules remain in place under a stay issued by the 3rd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals.

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (April 22)
Fix up your place this year, or move, so you can really settle down for the long haul. By May, you should be certain of what you want, although not quite sure how you'll get it. In June, you find a new source of income. Stash away as much as possible. In July, the change is imminent, and by August, you should be settled in, either to new surroundings, or to renovations. Heed a partner's urging to make corrections in November, and spend whatever is necessary to clear up a mess in December. A raise in pay could come around February, and by April you might be off on a whole new project.
Aries (March 21-April 19): Today is a 5
You may find it difficult to achieve your objective directly today. You may have to take the long way around, and you might have to get a friend or two to help. You're not used to playing the game this way, so you may not know how to do this at first.
Taurus (April 20-May 20): Today is a 4
Your framework should be pretty well set in place by now. You have probably figured out what you'd like to make happen, and you've got a pretty good idea of how to go about it. Tomorrow and today are both good for making decisions, but first you need to know all the facts, and get really clear about your objective
Gemini (May 21-June 21): Today is a 5
You may not have quite enough money to do what you want, but don't worry about it. You can learn how to make it. If you're just wandering around in the dark, you don't see the relationship between what you do and how much money you get.
Looks like you've got a big purchasing decision coming up, and this is not one you want to rush into. You want to think this out carefully. Consider all your options. Do a little shopping, but don't buy yet. Wait until tomorrow to put your money down.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Today is a 5
You're getting stronger today, as the moon goes into your sign. It may not be all that helpful, however. It's just making it harder for you to go along with what somebody else wants, and that may be what you have to do right now.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Today is a 6
You're a person who likes a routine, and today you should be able to establish one. Looks like the other players on your team want to do the same. They may not know quite how, but you can see what needs to be done.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Today is a 6
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Today is a 4
Your friends are the key to your success today, and working with a team is a way to achieve your goals. There are still a couple of tough obstacles that need to be overcome, but face it.
Scrapbook (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Today's a 4 It'll be kind of hard to make changes today, much easier to stay with an established routine. If you're building the routine right now, you want to go ahead and put in the corrections.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Today is a 5
You've just about had it with being stuck inside, if that's what your job requires. You're ready to take off on new expeditions. If you can get started early tonight, fine, although your best bet is to go tomorrow and get home Saturday or Sunday.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Today is a 5 You can get something really nice for your place if you can just get somebody to help you with the cost. This could be a lending agency, by the way. It doesn't have to be another person.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Today is a 4
There have been several changes in the last couple of days, but the pace is going to slow down. You're going to get into a bit of a routine starting soon, so
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Today is a 6
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Today is a 6 Stick to the routine at work today, even if it looks like it's undergoing a few changes. You can offer your suggestions, but don't expect them to be accepted right off the bat. People will want to think about every thing for a while before making any choices, and that's not a bad idea.

SPRINGFIELD, Mo. — Barry Hinson, basketball coach at Oral Roberts University the last two seasons, was named yesterday to succeed Steve Alford at Southwest Missouri State University.
Oral Roberts coach replaces Alford at SMSU
The appointment was announced by Athletic Director Bill Rowe in a statement released just before the scheduled 11 a.m. news conference to introduce the new coach.
Rowe said earlier that the school's Board of Governors had selected the candidate his search committee had recommended. Hinson had been reported to be the top choice.
He visited the campus Sunday to interview for the job, and the Springfield News-Leader reported yesterday
"I thanked him for his time here," ORU President Richard Roberts told the News-Leader.
that Hinson's players were told Tuesday he was leaving.
Hinson, 37, was an assistant at ORU for four years before being promoted to the top job. His record was 36-23 in that position.
Alford resigned March 22 to become coach at Iowa, and Buzz Peterson of Appalachian State was the first choice to succeed him. Peterson, in fact, accepted the job on April 8 but backed out the next morning, hours before a similar news conference introducing him was to have taken place.
His teams have led the Mid-Continent Conference in scoring each of the last two seasons, including a 77.9 average this past year. The team also led the conference in field goal percentage (48.4 percent) and three-point percentage (38.2 percent).
Southwest Missouri officials said that incident had prompted them not to reveal the new coach's name until they had actually introduced him yesterday morning.
Junior center Matt Rueter said he and other players were "cautiously excited" about yesterday's announcement.
"Hopefully, this thing's about to be settled and the waiting is just about over," he said.
Alford was 78-58 in four seasons at Southwest Missouri State, including a 22-11 record this year as the Bears advanced to the NCAA tournament's round of 16 for the first time.

Pollard hopes for more minutes
Continued from page 1B
But,man,it's still frustrating.
"It's kind of like the 'Field of Dreams' saying, 'If you play me, I will do good,'" said Pollard, who has averaged 9.7 minutes in each of the 42 games he's played in the NBA.
On March 30 against the Utah Jazz, Pollard had an opportunity to prove the validity of the movie line. With starting forward Chris Webber suffering from the flu, Kings coach Rick Adelman shuffled the lineup. The result: Pollard played, and he did well.
Being guarded by all-star forward Karl
Mindy, who missed the game because she was home tending to the couple's 5-month-old daughter Lolli (as in lollipop, Scot later explains), shed tears of happiness when her parents called to tell her about her husband's career night. Scot hopes that the night helps continue his career.
Malone, Pollard played 36 minutes, finishing with 11 points, 14 rebounds, four blocks and two steals.
"That game has made me believe in myself again, but also, I probably made some money that night," he says. "It's unfortunate you have to look at it that way,
Despite a promise from Adelman for more playing time, Pollard has played an average of five minutes during the 10 games played since starting against the Jazz.
but that's the way the NBA is."
Just another stinging truth revealed about the NBA.
"When I was teammates with him in Detroit, I remember Grant Hill said, 'The NBA is not nearly as glamorous as it seems.'" Pollard says. "And it's not."

Struggling NY Knicks demote manager
The Associated Press
PURCHASE, N.Y. — New York Knicks president and general manager Ernie Grunfeld took the fall today for his team's poor season when he was reassigned within the organization and stripped of his power.

son why we're not winning."
Those acquisitions were made by Grunfeld, who had been the team's general manager and president since 1996. He's been in the team's front office since 1990.
Grunfeld traded the team's most popular player, Charles Oakley, to Toronto for Marcus Camby. He also traded John Starks, Chris Mills and Terry Cummings in the State of Water
Sprewell and Camby have not fit in with the Knicks, and both are unhappy in their roles coming off the bench.
Asked if there would be any changes to the starting lineup tomorrow night against Charlotte, Van Gundy said: "I don't know. We'll see."
The Knicks are on a fourgame losing streak, their longest of the season.
Grunfeld's new title will be special assistant to Checkets, Madison Square Garden spokesman Barry Watkins said.
Colorado pro teams cancel games after shooting
The Associated Press
DENVER — The Colorado Avalanche and the San Jose Sharks today postponed their first-round NHL playoff series after a deadly shooting at nearby Columbine High School.
The teams were scheduled to open the Stanley Cup playoffs yesterday and today at McNichols Arena, but games 1 and 2 will be played Saturday and Monday in San Jose. Calif.
The series is scheduled to return to Denver for Games 3 and 4 on April 28 and April 30. If necessary, the series would stay in Colorado for Game 5 on May 1.
"There's nothing more important than respect to our community," Avalanche general manager Pierre Lacroix said. "It's the least we could do for the community to show them the respect that they deserve."
The Colorado Rockies also called off a game for the second-straight day because of the killings at the high school in Littleton.
Rockies officials said today the players and coaches would wear a Columbine High School patch on their right sleeves for the rest of the season. Twelve students and a teacher were killed at the suburban high school Tuesday, and the alleged gunmen are dead after apparent suicides.
"We are deeply saddened by the events in Littleton yesterday and now is not the time to play baseball," Rockies vice chairman Charlie Monfort said.
This was the second postponement in the three-game series between the Rockies and Montreal. The teams will play two split doubleheaders when the Expos return in August.
Both split doubleheaders will be played in what had been a three-games series Aug. 13-15, but the exact date of either was not set.
The Rockies open a four-game series in San Francisco on Thursday. Montreal has a day off Thursday and worked out at Coors Field today.
"I couldn't have played," Expos third
baseman Shane Andrews said Tuesday. "I had a hard time just being on the field. Thinking about it makes me sick."
Tuesday night the Denver Nuggets also postponed their NBA game with Portland at McNichols Arena.
"Where can your kids be safe? On the streets?" Nuggets forward Eric Williams said. "I feel for those families. You send your kids away to school this morning on a peaceful note and come home to something tragic like this."
Nuggets general manager Dan Issel said, "I guess the scary thing is it could happen anywhere, it could happen anywhere at any time."
Since 1997, 12 students have been killed in shootings at schools in Mississippi, Kentucky, Arkansas and Oregon.
"It can happen to anyone," said Colorado pitcher Brian Bohanon, who has five children. "The way things are going nowadays, it's popping up all over the country. It's a tragedy. They're just kids."
Commentary
Haircuts add to medley of great Kansas memories
During the past few weeks I have searched my soul trying to think of something that would help bring this college career to fitting close.
Of course, there are the memories — Jacque Vaughn spinning through the
AAM
UCLA defense to push the Jayhawks to an improbable comeback victory in 1995, Lauryn Hill and the Fugees rocking the Granada, tearing down the goal posts last October, lying on the soft green grass in front of Fraser on those warm sun-drenched spring afternoons. I could go on forever. We all could.
Harley Ratliff
There are talented
sports@kansan.com
There are talented professors who have helped me mature. My wonderful friends that I've been lucky enough to meet and my beautiful girlfriend, who knocked me upside the head with a big love punch when I wasn't looking. Each one of them has brought a special aspect to my life that I will be able to take with me into the real world.
And all these things are great
But, I think there is thing I will miss the most about this sleepy little college town. The one thing that I won't be able to pack in a suitcase or keep in a memory. The one thing that will no longer be a regular part of my life is the haircuts.
That's right, the haircuts.
For the past four years, two or three times a month, I have been a regular at Downtown Barbershop on 824 Massachusetts St. And when I leave Lawrence, a part of me always will stay at the tiny little barbershop (and no, I don't mean my hair).
Four years ago, as a wide-eyed freshman I ventured out of the residence halls and down to Mass Street looking for a place to rid me of my floppy locks. As with many things I did as a freshman, I was attempting to do something I had never done before. When I was growing up, my mom booked my haircuts. It was always at some fancy salon with women named Pamela and Sandy who used too much hair gel and too few clippers. When I asked for "High and Tight," they thought I was talking about their skirt preference (which, I have no complaints about, but it
doesn't help get you the haircut you want.
So as I wandered down Mass Street I peeked my head into the numerous barbershops, searching for the right one.
When I glanced in Downtown Barbershop, I knew I had found my spot. There it was: hardwood floors, walls adorned with various jerseys, cabinets filled with football helmets and a television that seemed permanently stuck on ESPN.
I walked in, plopped myself into Rex's chair and told the man what I wanted. I'll never forget that first conversation. I told him I was from Oklahoma and that I had grown up a die-hard Sooner fan. Before I could finish. Rex had cut me off.
"I'll never forgive that jerk Billy Tubbs," Rex snapped. "I'll never forgive him for cutting down our nets at Kemper!"
I was stunned. My barber had just called the most popular basketball coach of my youth a "jerk".
But then it dawned on me: This was my kind of sports fan. Even if I didn't like the haircut, how could I not like a guy who was still bitter about something that had happened nearly seven years ago? That is something that gets respect in my book. I mean, I found myself two nights ago cursing the New York Mets' Ron Darling for blowing the seventh game of the 1988 National League Championship Series against the Dodgers. I know bitter.
This place isn't so bad, I thought to myself as I walked out of the store. And I even liked the haircut.
The rest, as they say, is history.
During the years, Rex (and John) and I have discussed it all. From solving the problems of the Royals bullpen to the art of coaching baseball to how Roy should run his team down at Allen Fieldhouse. And regardless of our answer, we were always right.
Always.
So wherever I end up in the real world, I'm going to have to find a new Downtown Barbershop. Maybe it's out there. Maybe not. But I doubt it will be as good as the one down on Mass Street.
I only wish that when I come back in 20 years, hopefully with a wonderful family and a job that forces University officials to beg me for money, that the Downtown Barbershop is still around — and I still have hair to cut.

Public library bans Cleveland's logo
The Associated Press
CLEVELAND — Cuyahoga County library workers who are devoted Cleveland Indians fans will have to leave Chief Wahoo behind when coming to work.
BOWIE
Staff members are allowed to wear informal attire to support the Indians when the team has a home game. But the grinning, red-faced logo has been banned.
John A. Lonsak, executive director of the library system, sent out a memo recently to 700 employees explaining that Chief Wahoo is not the image the library should project.
"It's a diversity issue." Lonsak said Tuesday. "It's not a censorship or political issue at all."
he decided to ban the caricature in an effort "to be sensitive to people of all ethnic backgrounds."
Anthony Richer Jr., 32, of Garfield Heights, who works as a clerk at the Beachwood branch of the county library, said Tuesday that he misses wearing the logo to work.
"The library prides itself on not censoring," he said. "It's completely unfair. Last year I could wear Wahoo all the time."
Around Cleveland, Chief Wahoo is seen just about everywhere during the baseball season.
"I have heard rumblings of discontent," Lonsak said. "Supervisors have told me some in the staff aren't happy with the fact they can't wear Wahoo images."
The logo has long been criticized as insensitive and demeaning, particularly by American Indians and church groups. The most recent protest was before the April 12 home opener outside of Jacobs Field, when an image of Chief Wahoo was burned.
Indians spokesman Bob DiBiasio said Tuesday he had no comment on the library ban.
"We understand that it's a sensitive issue," DiBiasio said. "There are a tremendous number of baseball fans who enjoy our name and logo."
The Cuyahoga County library system of 29 branches exists in suburbs. The Cleveland Public Library, which has 28 branches within Cleveland, has not banned Wahoo, spokesman Alan Seifullah said.
Vernon Bellecourt, president of the National Coalition on Racism in Sports and Media and a frequent Wahoo protester, on Tuesday said the library's policy is "very helpful to our campaign. Obviously our message is beginning to get through."
Rapist trades cell for boxing ring
Ayala 'remorseful about past behavior
PHILADELPHIA — Tony Ayala choked back tears, clutched his wife's hand and walked through the prison gates. On the other side, his next opponent was waiting.
The Associated Press
Where will this road to freedom lead?
crime he can never forget.
Ayala, the once-promising fighter who derailed his life and many others in a night of drugs, booze and madness, was released from a New Jersey prison Tuesday after serving 16 years for rape. Images of his flamboyance and devastating speed were locked behind bars with him, along with thoughts of a terrible
Though Ayala already is dreaming of a comeback, the months and years ahead will determine what kind of man the fighter once known as "The Little Bull" has become.
"My whole focus was finding out what it was that caused me to behave in the manner that I did and fix myself," said Ayala, who was released for good behavior less than halfway through his 35-year sentence. "The fact that I committed this crime is something I will have to live with the rest of my life. It's not ever going to be forgotten."
Ayala, now 36, hasn't fought since he was a 19-year-old junior mid-dweight with a 22-0 record with 19 knockouts. His chance to be the Oscar De La Hoya of his day was ruined by drugs and alcohol.
in the early morning hours of New
Year's Day 1983. Ayala returned to his Paterson, N.J., home after a night out with his wife, Lisa Paez. She went to bed. He said he was going to watch television.
Now that he has been released from prison, Ayala wants to return to the ring.
Instead, stoked by heroin and booze, he went to the home of a female neighbor and raped her. At the time, he was on probation for beating a woman in the restroom of a San Antonio drive-in theater in 1980, and for breaking into a San Antonio home in 1983.
Ayala says he weighs 175 pounds — 21 pounds over the junior middleweight limit — and can do 300 pullups, 300 pushups, 300 dips, 2,000 crunches and run eight miles. His father, also Tony, will train him again if he makes it back into the
ring.
Boxing is a way I could give to my family what I always wanted to give to them, but unfortunately was too stupid when I was young to give them," Ayala said. "I want to finish some unfinished business with boxing."
The sounds of a speedbag could be next.
On Tuesday, Ayala tended to the unfinished business of his life. Laughter, chatter and a dog's barking could be heard in the background as he talked on the phone.
"He's already succeeded," said his friend and counselor Brian Raditz. "He's dealt with his horrible, horrible conflicts. He's very remorseful about how he behaved. He is a winner already, whether he goes back to fighting or, honestly, whatever he sets his mind to."
Schott agrees to sell most of her Cincinnati Reds shares
The Associated Press
said her attorney, Frank Kelley. "She hopes
CINCINNATI — Marge Schott's tumultuous 15-year run as the Cincinnati Reds owner is coming to a close.
Faced with a lawsuit by the team's limited partners and pressure from baseball to sell, Schott agreed Tuesday to let Cincinnati financier Carl Lindner and two others buy most of her shares for $67 million.
Schott will retain one share and a few perks — provided baseball goes along — but won't have any say about how the club is run or any platform for her views.
"She wants the people of Cincinnati and baseball fans everywhere to know that she's grateful and loves them one and all,"
to still have time to encourage youngsters to appreciate baseball. She will always be a fan."
It usually takes baseball's owners six to 15 months to approve a team sale, but the Reds' deal is expected to move quickly, perhaps with a vote as soon as June. Baseball's approval is the final step in the process.
DANIELA RICKER
Schott: Will retain one share and some perks for owners
Lindner and current limited partners George Strike and William
Reik would buy 51/2 of Schott's 61/2 shares, including the two controlling shares. There are 15 shares under the current partnership.
"Carl Lindner, George Strike and Bill Reik have been excellent limited partners in the current partnership."NL president Len Coleman said. "I think with their leadership, once the background work is done, the fans in Cincinnati will be blessed with a bright future for baseball."
Managing executive John Allen, who has been running the team in place of Schott, will remain in charge and Jim Bowden will continue as the general manager under the new regime.

Baseball icon Hank Aaron enjoys place in history
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — With the death last month of Joe DiMaggio, a recent poll chose Willie Mays as the greatest living ball player. Hank Aaron, who hit almost 400 more home runs than DiMaggio and 95 more than Mays, has no problem with that.
"They voted DiMaggio the greatest," Aaron said. "That's fine, Now it's Willie, That's fine, too."
That's Aaron's style. He is at peace with himself, content that his performance, including the record 755 home runs and the record 2,297 RBI, speaks for itself.
He never had more than 47 home runs in a season, almost ordinary compared to Mark McGwire's 70 and Sammy Sosa's 66 last summer. But he reached 40 homers eight times and was in the 30s seven times.
He never drove in more than 132 runs in a season, far from Hack Wilson's record 190 and Lou Gehrig's 184. But he had 11 seasons of 100 RBI.
"They voted DiMaggio the greatest. That's fine. Now it's Willie. That's fine too."
"I did what I did," Aaron said.
"What I loved about what I did
Hank Aaron
Baseball Hall of Famer
was the consistency."
And consistency, he said, is what it will take to break the home-run mark, celebrated more now than it ever was 25 years ago, when he broke Babe Ruth's mark of 714.
Aaron has become a hot item.
There's a new award carrying his name that will go to baseball's best hitter and a slick new photo book published by Total Sports reflecting his life and achievements.
Maybe it was the McGwireSosa home run chase that reminded fans about the exclamation point a home run provides. Aaron was the No. 1 practitioner of baseball's slam dunk. It stands alone as baseball's most glamorous record, eloquent testimony to a career of year-in, year-out excellence.
Unlike the McGwire-Sosa chase to break Roger Maris' record of 61 home runs, there was no festive side to Aaron's pursuit of the home run record. His run at Ruth was tinged with ugly racial overtones and, in the end, it was less celebrated than it was acknowledged.
Number 715 was accompanied by relief rather than joy about the achievement. The scars of that time are buried in the deepest part of his psyche now, overshadowed by the good times he now enjoys
Still, though, he remembers.
"McGwire, every time he hit a homer, he raised his son," he said, recalling the home plate greeting that became a ritual between father and son. "I was unable to do that. If I had, how wonderful it would have been."
Former groundskeeper sells Aaron's final home-run ball
MILWAUKEE — The final home-run baseball hit by Hank Aaron has earned $650,000, most of it for a former Milwaukee County Stadium groundskeeper who recovered the ball in the stands.
The Associated Press
Guernsey's, a New York auction house that arranged the sale, declined Tuesday to identify the buyer.
Andrew J. Knuth, who runs an investment company in Westport, Conn., refused comment on reports that he was the purchaser, the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel said.
Richard Arndt, 52, now a furniture salesman in Albuquerque, N.M., worked at the stadium July 20, 1976, when Aaron hit his final career homer, his 755th.
Arndt said he offered to give the ball to Aaron, but the Milwaukee Brewers never arranged a meeting, firing him instead for not
surrendering the ball to the team.
Aaron autographed the ball at a collector's show a few years ago, unaware of what it was. He has tried twice to buy the ball from Arndt, who said he decided last fall to auction it after the Brewers declined to buy it.
Arndt gets $461,700 from the Guernsey's sale. In keeping with a promise to Aaron, $155,800 goes to Chasing the Dream Foundation, an Atlanta group that helps underprivileged children. Guernsey's keeps the balance as a commission.
A ceremony marking the anniversary of the home run is planned for July 20 in Milwaukee County Stadium.
Brewers spokesman Laurel Prieb said Aaron planned to attend.
Arndt's agent, Tim Sullivan, said the ball may be displayed at the ballpark, but Prieb said the team had not discussed it.
Mantle's widow claims baseball up for auction simply a fake
The Associated Press.
HOUSTON — It might be the ball that Mickey Mantle hit out of the park for his 500th home run. Mantle's widow, however, says the ball is a fake.
There's a lot of money riding on the outcome.
Appraisers in the room believed the momentum that started with the sale of McGwire's ball could help push the price of the Mantle ball as high as $250,000, the Texas Journal of the Wall Street Journal reported in yesterday's editions.
The baseball in question was about to be auctioned last January at Guernsey's auction house in New York. Just minutes before, Mark McGwire's record-setting 70th home run ball from last season sold for $3 million.
Then the telephone at Guernsey's rang.
It was Merlyn Mantle, the Yankee great's widow, who told the auctioneer that the ball on the block was a phony; that she had the real 500th homer souvenir in her Dallas home.
Guernsey's officials pulled the ball off the auction. Ever since, its owner, Dale Cicero, a firefighter from Bend, Ore., has been crusing to convince collectors he's got the genuine article. And he is hinting at suing Mrs. Mantle for interfering with the auction.
Cicero and Mrs. Mantle agree that the slugger turned over the 500th homer ball to close friend and one-time business partner Harold Youngman of Baxter Springs, Kan., shortly after the fan who caught the ball returned it to him.
Mrs. Mantle said her husband later took the ball back and gave it to her. But Cicero said Youngman, who died in 1990, gave the ball to a baseball museum, which displayed it with other Mantle memorabilia. He said he bought it three years ago — for $24,200 — from the collector who bought it from the museum in 1995
Mrs. Mantle said she plans to put her ball in a museum she's helping build near Grove, Okla.
"I really resent having to prove I've got the ball. I was married to Mick for 43 years," she said."

McGwire sits as Brewers beat St. Louis by single run
The Associated Press
MILWAUKEE — David Nilsson hit a tiebreaking home run in the eighth inning, and the Milwaukee Brewers beat the St. Louis Cardinals 2-1 yesterday to stop a three-game losing streak.
Mark McGwire, bothered by a tight left hamstring, missed his first game of the season. McGwire, who has a .233 batting average with five home runs, left Tuesday's game in the fifth innings after going for 2.
inning after going 0-for-2 with a walk
Bn
Nilsson, who entered as a defensive replacement in the top of the eighth. connected off Lance Painter (0-2) in the bottom half for his second home run of the season.
Al Reyes (1-0) pitched a
Arkeyes (14) pitched a perfect eighth inning, and Bob Wickman finished for his first save of the season. With two outs in the ninth, J.D. Drew walked and took third on Placido Polanco's single. Shawon Dunston then ground to first.
Cardinals starter Darren Oliver allowed one run and three hits in seven innings. Milwaukee starter Rafael Roque gave up one run and four hits in four innings.
Milwaukee went ahead in the third on Fernando Vlna's two-out RBI single. St. Louis came back in the fourth on Fernando Tatis' homer off Roque. All four of Tatis' homers have come against Milwaukee.
St. Louis left the bases loaded in the sixth when Oliver hit an inning-ending groundout off David Weathers. Milwaukee stranded three the following inning on Bobby Hughes' inning-endng ground out.
- Eric Davis did not play. He was hit in the left hand by an Eric Plunk punk Tuesday night and sustained a bruise. X-rays were negative, and Davis is day to day.
Roque took the place in the rotation vacated by Bill Pulsipher, who went on the 15-day disabled list on Monday.
David Howard led off four different innings and made an out each time.
Milwaukee has yet to score in the sixth inning and has allowed 11 runs.
Astros' Bagwell hits 3 homers in win
CHICAGO — Jeff Bagwell matched career bests with three home runs and six RBIs yesterday — setting a franchise record for homers as the Houston Astros beat the Chicago Cubs 10-3.
The Associated Press
Bagwell's three homers gave him 225 two more than the previous Houston record set by Jimmy Wynn from 1963-74
set by Jimmy Wyman from 1960s.
Bagwell, who came in with just one
homer this season, connected off Scott
Sanders for a solo shot in the first. He
hit a three-run homer off Sanders in the
third and a two-run drive off Rodney
Myers in the seventh.
Bagwell also homered three times against the Los Angeles Dodgers on June 24, 1994. He finished 3-for-5, extending his hitting streak to 10 games. He
fried, and all driven in by Bagwell - and six hits in six innings. Myers was tagged for five runs and six hits in 1 2/3 innings.
Sanders (0-2) gave up four runs—all
CUBS
struck out swinging in the fifth, and grounded out to third leading off the ninth
Winner Shane
Reynolds (3-1) allowed two runs and eight hits in seven innings.
The Cubs closed to 4-2 in the third when Mickey Morandini hit an RBI double and scored on Glenalleh Hill's sacrifice fly. Morandini shouldn't even have
been around to score, but Bill Spiers botched a rundown between second and third.
Chicago could have added even more runs. With Sammy Sosa at third and Mark Grace on first, Tyler Houston popped out to shortstop and Jose Hernandez struck out. The Cubs' only other run came on Hill's fifth homer, an eighth-inning drive off Doug Henry.
Craig Biggio was out of the starting lineup for the first time this season. He pinch hit for Spiers in the seventh and staved in the game.
Jeff Blauer started at third for the Cubs, the first time he's played there since April 8, 1992.

NHL trying to influence Lemieux to save Penguins
The Associated Press
PITTSBURGH — The NHL may be about to exert the greatest possible influence to bring Mario Lemieux into its ownership ranks: No Mario, no Pittsburgh Penguins.
The NHL plans to file legal documents
tomorrow supporting the Lemieux group and offering to work with him to get the Penguins out of bankruptcy, league and legal sources close to the proceedings told The Associated Press.
NHL
The league wants the matter settled by June at the latest, they said, so the Penguins can sell tickets and the NHL can set a schedule.
"A lot of people could buy the Penguins, but one person can save them: Mario Lemieux." Penguins spokesman Tom McMillan said Tuesday.
The league is discouraging Florida investment banker Chip Gesner from submitting a bid, one that might further slow the process, the sources said.
U. S. Bankruptcy Court Judge Bernard Markovitz has scheduled a hearing on Lemieux's takeover bid for April 30. Markovitz has no obligation to follow the NHL's advice and choose the Lemieux group,
but the league does have some leverage.
If the NHL does not agree with the choice of owners, it could reject the judge's recommendation and revoke the franchise, essentially making it worthless.
William Daly, the NHL's vice president for legal affairs, said the revocation of the franchise is an unwanted but valid way for the league to settle the problem.
Under the NHL constitution, the Penguins' players then could be distributed throughout the league or the franchise could be awarded to a new city.
The NHL has not set a firm date to resolve the Penguins' situation, but the next step could be to do so.
Since Lemieux retired after the 1996-97 season and the Penguins' financial situation worsened, the team's season-ticket base has dropped from 12,000 to 8,300. By contrast, expansion franchises must guarantee season-ticket sales of 12,000.
The biggest hangup to reorganizing the Penguins' finances is the lack of a new lease with Spectacor Management Group, which operates the Civic Arena.
Despite playing in the NHL's oldest arena, the Penguins' pay the steepest annual rent, an estimated $6 million to $7 million that is blamed for much of the team's financial problems. The lease has been renegotiated several times under co-owner Howard Baldwin to supply cash needed to keep the team going.
Young Spaniard makes professional golf debut
The Associated Press
BARCELONA, Spain — Sergio Garcia walked into his first news conference as a professional wearing a snappy suit with cameras clicking.
Equipped with the most celebrated amateur career since Tiger Woods, the 19-year-old Spaniard who was the low amateur in the Masters made his pro debut yesterday in the Peugeot Open.
"This is not a new page for me as a golfer, it's a new book. One that has no headings or records, the pages are still blank." Garcia said at the Golf Club of Prat. "My move to professional golf will start from zero."
He is the second European teen-ager in as many years to turn pro, only Garcia is expected to fare much better than Justin Rose. After his tie for fourth in the British Open last year, Rose immediately turned pro and hasn't made a cut in 18 tries.
Garcia will be able to play seven European tour events
this year to make enough money to avoid going to qualifying school.
He also is expected to use sponsor exemptions to play the Nelson Classic, the St. Jude Classic and the Sprint International on the PGA Tour.
"You never know what is going to happen," he said. "But if I should win, it would be fantastic."
That may sound like a big ambition. But then, the 19-year-old prodigy known as "El Nino" has always faced high expectations.
At 12, Garcia became the club champion at Mediterranean Golf Club, where is father is the pro. Two years later, he made the cut in his European PGA debut at the Mediterranean Open and became the youngest European Amateur Champion at 15.
He played his first British Open in 1966 and missed the cut at Royal Lytham and St. Annes. After the tournament, champion Tom Lehman handed Garcia the claret jug and told him, "Someday you will win this."

30-member spotter team watches sky
By Katie Burford
kburford@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
Phil Rankin never will forget June 19, 1981—the day he met a tornado.
Douglas County was under a thunderstorm warning and Rankin, assistant director of Human Resources, was working as a volunteer storm spotter for what was then Douglas County Emergency Preparedness. He had just arrived to his designated location at 20th Street and Lawrence Avenue.
Rain was pouring down and wind was rocking the car.
"Suddenly, it got quiet," he said. "I was looking straight ahead, and it was like someone opened a curtain."
Bits of debris swirled in the sky and a clumps of hedge trees popped out of the ground.
"The car started floating—it felt weightless," he said. "Then everything went black, and something hit the car just like they say, like a ton of bricks."
It was when the windshield shattered that a piece of glass lodged itself in Rankin's eye. He escaped the encounter with his life but lost vision in his right eye.
This is the risk that storm spotters take—voluntarily.
The Douglas County Sheriff's Office of Emergency Management has about 30 of these volunteers, several of whom are KU employees. Before retiring because of his vision loss, Rankin had put in nearly 10 years of service as a storm spotter.
Storm spotters are crucial for Emergency Management.

a practice that the state attorney general's office interprets as a violation of the Kansas Open Meetings and Records Acts.
The elections commission conducted a closed hearing Monday at which it decided the outcome of more than three complaints against the YOU coalition and candidates, and the recreation task force.
"I filed a complaint because our job as a newspaper is to report the news," Premier said. "By unjustly closing the meetings, the elections commission has taken away students' rights, and we are seeking to change that."

Fire alarm malfunctions at chancellor's residence
A malfunctioning fire alarm at Chancellor Robert Heinemanway's house sent a fire truck and two Lawrence police cars squealing through campus late last night after it.
Firefighters blamed the malfunction on rain water that had leaked into the house during yesterday's rain.
"When the water set it off, it sent an alert to the station," said Lawrence firefighter Lexie Engleman. "We responded to that."
The alarm went off at 11:15 p.m. at the house, 1535 Lilac Lane. Firefighters arrived a few minutes later.

Vigil to be held Sunday for imprisoned Tibetan
The Panchen Lama, the second highest-ranking religious figure in Tibetan Buddhism, will spend his eleventh birthday under house arrest in China this Sunday.
Several KU groups will hold a vigil for him at 4 p.m. Sunday in front of the Douglas County Courthouse.
"It's going to highlight the fact that human abuses around the world are often committed against indigenous peoples," said Kyle Browning, president of the local Armmy International chapter.
Browning said that a Tibetan Buddhist monk and other speakers will be at the vigil.
The event is sponsored by Students for a Free Tibet, Latin American Solidarity and First Nations Student Association.

"Recent figure drawings by Robert Hemenay," the note read. "Wednesday, April 21 (one day only). ON, not at! The Spencer Museum of Art."
The charcoal sketches were of a man sitting, a man's head and shoulders and several female figures superimposed.

New drug for diabetes promises less liver risk
BETHESDA, Md. — Diabetics frightened by reports that a popular treatment may destroy some patients' livers may soon get a new choice: Government advisers recommended yesterday the approval of Avandia, a drug that promises to fight diabetes with fewer liver risks.
Studies of more than 4,000 patients who tried Avandia have not signified it has damaged livers. Still, if liver damage is a rare side effect, as it is for Rezulin, then it may appear only as hundreds of thousands of diabetics try Avandia, said FDA panel chairman Henry Bone of the Michigan Brian and Mineral Clinic.
No one can say for certain that Avandia never will damage diabetics' livers, advisers to the Food and Drug Administration said. Indeed, they urged Avandia patients to have intensive liver testing similar to the kind now required for patients who take the controversial competing drug Resulin.
FDA officials list 43 Rezulin patients who have suffered acute liver failure. Of those, 28 died and seven needed liver transplants to survive.

Jamaica rethinks taxes after deadly riots end
KINGSTON, Jamaica — Schools and businesses reopened yesterday after the government indicated it would back down from proposed tax hikes that sparked deadly riots, threatening Jamaica's tourist industry.
Flights and cruises to the island were canceled due to protests that killed six, injured dozens and led to more than 150 arrests.
Yesterday in Kingston, where mobs had blocked traffic for days, a few unmanned roadblocks remained and police patrolled the streets. American Airlines said it would restore service today to Montego Bay and Saturday to Kingston.
Prime Minister P.J. Patterson met with members of a committee he appointed Wednesday to seek alternatives to last week's proposal of $100 million in new taxes, including a 30 percent increase in gas prices.
The process was widely seen as a way to end the protests, and officials hinted that the proposed taxes would be scrapped.
"I think we underestimated the nature of the irritation it would cause," said Sen. Maxine Henry Wilson, a government spokeswoman.

"They are our eyes and ears," said Terri Guenther, assistant director for Emergency Management.
Storm team keeping watch
Continued from page 1A
Housed in the basement of the Law Enforcement Center, 111 E. 11th St., Emergency Management is equipped with the latest weather monitoring technology, including Doppler Radar, and is in constant communication with the National Weather service.
Although the criteria varies for activating the storm spotting fleet, one factor is whether there is a storm watch or warning within two counties of Douglas County, Guenther said.
Once the decision is made, the spotters get a beep on their pagers. As they respond, they are dispatched to various locations depending on the direction the storm is moving. A map with magnets is used to keep track of spotters' locations.
Kansas' most severe weather usually falls between April and July. The spotters were activated for the first time this season late Wednesday night because of a severe weather watch that dumped hail in some nearby areas.
While on location, spotters are equipped with a handheld radio, map, storm indicator handbook, a reflective vest and a magnetic sign to put on their cars to identify them. They use their radios to report back wind speeds, cloud formations and other indicators of dangerous weather conditions. Back at the office they are using this information to determine whether they should sound the sirens, warning residents to take cover.
As Rankin's experience illustrates, the job is perilous, and safety is always a concern.
"Safety comes first," Guenther said. "We tell the spotters to leave if they unsafe."
The creation of emergency management services started in the 1950s through the Civil Defense Act, said Paula Phillips, director of Emergency Management.
Most spotters were amateur radio operators until the early 1980s when communications technology made specialized radio expertise superfluous.
Now volunteers just need a desire to help out.
"It takes somebody who has a love for weather," Guenther said. "They do it because it's their way to really provide a service to the community."
That's why Marvin Wiedeman, an electrician for Facilities Operations, has done it for 23 years.
"I came from Michigan and saw a lot of people hurt from tornadoes," he said. "I do it because it can save people's lives."

Senate collaborates on citywide issues
By Ezra Sykes
esykes@kanson.com
Kansan staff writer
By Ezra Sykes
Last fall, Kevin Yoder, student body president, asked the Lawrence City Commission to create a non-voting position for the Student Senate similar to the positions created for the two Lawrence high schools.
The proposal was voted down by the commission 3-2. Dissenting commissioners argued that if Senate wanted a commission member they could easily vote one in and that by giving the Senate a position, they would be giving it an unfair voice that other community groups did not have.
But that doesn't mean Senate does not have a voice in the community.
Tom Moore, campus director for the Student Legislative Awareness Board, has been working for about the past seven months on bringing Senate and the city of Lawrence closer together.
And for the most part, it seems to be working.
"In my dealings with the commission, there hasn't been anyone who doesn't want to listen to students," said Moore, whose job includes presenting the commission with student input.
organizations have collaborated on include citywide public transportation, an alcohol task force, bike paths and funding for Saferie.
Moore recently worked with city management to pass a resolution that would make the intersection at 15th and Engel streets — now a considerably dangerous area for pedestrians
a safer crossing.
Some of the recent issues that the two
He also is in the process of sorting through the complicated citywide public transportation issue.

favor of cooperation between the city and the University to construct a citywide public transportation system.
But despite the overwhelming student support, student fees are not to be used for anyone but students, said Nicole Skalla, transportation coordinator.
Skalla said that Senate would first have to convince KU administration to change the status of student fees.
John Nalbandian has served on the commission for the past eight years and has been involved in several projects in coordination with Senate. As for the bus issue, he said it has yet to really develop.
"In the past there have been conversations but there has never seemed to be student interest in merging monetarily," he said. "Now, they think there will be. Those are sobering times when we start to talk about the money involved."
Moore knows the process will be a long one.
"We all agree on the problem, we just don't know what to do to solve it," he said.
Nalbandian said he thought that communication between the commission and the students was important.
"It's good for us to get together, talking more about matters and identifying issues that are important to both groups," Nalbandian said. "I think our biggest accomplishment is raising awareness about the specific issues that affect students."
Nalbandian said that Lawrence being a college town definitely played a role in the decisions of the city commission. The fact that most students don't own property affects the sales tax, he said.
"Students have such a big impact; in the restaurants, the entertainment and the vitality of this city," he said.
Mike Wildgen, city manager, said he
thought Senate had become more active at the city level in recent years.
"The idea of working directly with them is kind of foreign but they definitely have given their opinions to us," he said.
Wildgen said he considered the student body to be just like any other group in the city, only bigger.
But Yoder, who proposed a seat on the commission for students thought that politically, being a student was unique.
"There is a large constituency of students in Lawrence who pay taxes, and I think Student Senate is the best way to get their opinions across," he said.
"We're only here for four years or so, and then we leave," he said. "That makes it hard to build a base for the issues."
Yoder also said that the commission should spend time seeing what KU students want and that the commission and Senate were so important to each other that they must work more closely.
trunks they nave.
"Students have definitely gained influence in the city and, I think they will continue to do so in the future," he said.
And during the past year, Yoder thinks they have.

Rain delays, but doesn't stop, University plans

Kansan staff writer
Heavy thunderstorms drenched Lawrence and the University of Kansas yesterday afternoon, moving Earth Day celebrations inside and flooding streets and buildings.
The storms dropped a total of 2.93 inches of rain on campus, according to the KU Weather Service in Malot Hall, causing problems on campus and in Lawrence.
"We've had reported flooding in the streets pretty much all over campus," said Mike Richardson, director of Facilities Operations.
"It just came so fast that our systems just aren't designed for it." Richardson said.
He said that buildings on campus typically experienced flooding during heavy rains, including Watson Library and Stauffer-Flint Hall.
Sgt. George T. Wheeler of the Lawrence Police Department said that reports of street flooding in town were fairly widespread yesterday, with the worst flooding in the area of 11th Street and Haskell Avenue, which was closed for part of the afternoon, and 23rd Street between Nalsmith Drive and Oudahl Road. He said that the flood waters were deep enough to stall some cars but that no serious situations had occurred.
"We had some calls from people driving in high water — motorist assists — but no one sitting on the roof of their car," Wheeler said.
He said that lightning or high water had also knocked out the traffic lights at West Sixth and Michigan streets, causing traffic problems.
The Kansas Highway Patrol closed a section of U.S. Highway 24 north of Lawrence for one hour.
Lightning that accompanied the storm caused sporadic power outages in Lawrence, according to Mark Schreiber, Manager of Community Relations for Kansas Power and Light.
"We had some small, isolated outages but no major problems." Schreiber said.
Bill Pesek, Manager of Operations for Computing Services, said that the uninterruptible power supply that feeds the computer operations command center had prevented any disruptions of campus computer services but that computer labs may have experienced temporary outages.
"We did have a little blip, so to speak, on the PCs, but we didn't receive any calls from customers on service disruptions," Pesek said.
The weather did disrupt or at least displace the "Toons at Noon" event at the Kansas Union today, part of Student Union Activities and the Kansas Union's Earth Day celebration.
Part of the musical event was scheduled to be held outside the Union but was forced inside by the weather.
Stephanie Sapienza, public relations coordinator for SUA, said that the rain had not affected turnout for the event.
"I think people were crowding into the Union between classes because of the rain, so it didn't hurt the turnout," Sapienza said.
Not all students disliked the storms yesterday. Josh Jordan, Emporia junior, said his walk to class in the rain was cold and wet but not miserable.
"I enjoyed it," he said. "I had my headphones on, and I was listening to the Dave Matthews Band and walking in the rain."
The National Weather Service said that there was a 30 percent chance for additional rain in the Lawrence area today.

Police say increased awareness lowers KU crime statistics

Kansan staff writer
Crime is down at the University of Kansas and numbers released yesterday by the KU Public Safety Office prove it. Bulletines are down 29 percent
Burglaries are down 25 percent
Theft is down 12 percent
The total number of criminal offenses is down to 1,206 from 1,438, or 16 percent.

Lt. Schuyler Bailey of the KU Public Safety Office attributed this to several fa-
"The big decreases are in burglary and theft," he said. "People are aware of their property — they are not leaving property unattended, they are registering their bicycles and not leaving possessions visible in their cars."
Another contributing factor was KU Parking Department's change from hang tags to stickers, because many thefts last year were from stolen hang-tag parking permits, Bailey said.
Despite the decrease, Sgt. Troy Malen of the KU

Public Safety Office said that it was important that the campus community stay vigilant and report any suspicious activity.
Bailey said that he wasn't sure if the decrease in drug violations was an actual reflection of a decrease in drug usage.
Similarly, he wasn't sure that the increase in alcohol violations meant students were drinking more.
"A lot of alcohol violations are officer-initiated," he said.
"And the awareness on the part of officers has increased."
The total number of hate crimes is unchanged from last year. Violent crime represents a small fraction of the crime reported on campus. Overall, violent crime rates have remained stable, with the biggest change being a decrease in the number of rape, which dropped from seven to one.
The Student-Right-to-Know and Campus Security Act requires the public safety office to report crime statistics every year. The act is also known as the "Clery Bill" in memory of Jeanne Clery, a student at Lehigh University in Bethelhem, Pa., who was brutally raped and murdered in her dorm room in April 1986.
Clery's parents lobbied for the legislation because they believed that their daughter's death could have been avoided if they had known about a rash of sexual assaults that occurred on Lehigh's campus during the three years prior to her murder.
In 1998, President Bill Clinton amended the act to require that all crimes motivated by hate or bias be included within the statistics.
The act also requires that the public safety office regularly make available information about crimes on campus. It decided that the most efficient way to go about this was to put the information on the Internet. Information about every crime reported on campus since Oct. 1, 1998 is available on the crime log at www.ukans.edu/~kucops.
"This department has been notifying the University community for more than twenty years of the types of crimes that occur on campus," Malen said. "The crime log is just another way to raise awareness."

Campus becoming too dependent on the technology of new KUIDs
University of Kansas students are almost wholly dependent on the supposedly technologically advanced KUIDs. Yet another problem with this "smart card," however, could be on the horizon.
The new KUIDs first were issued last spring and were intended to enable students to buy sodas, use ATMs and other services on campus. Soon after being issued, students noticed several annoying qualities with the KUIDs.
For one, to be used as ATM cards, students had to open an account with Commerce Bank, exclusively. Moreover, when used as bus passes, they required a card reader that took several seconds to operate, resulting in long waits to board the buses. KU on Wheels eventually remedied this debacle by issuing separate bus cards.
And now, the KUID eventually will replace the copy cards in University libraries.
Mandi Turner, director of copying
The use of "smart cards" in library copiers could mean more lost cards for students.
services for the libraries, said that the company that services the machines that read the copy cards is going out of business. Thus, these machines are being phased out in favor of machines that will read KUIDs and deduct the appropriate amount from the card's microchip.
Students still will receive the reduced rate that copy cards offered, 7 cents per copy, if they use their KUID.
Dependence on one card has inherent problems. Consider, for example, the frequency with which copy cards are left in the machines and lost.
With a copy card, at the very worst, a student would lose a few dollars. But the KUID contains so much vital information that losing it could affect seriously a student's daily activities.
For example, a student living in a residence hall who forgets to take his KUID out of the copier and loses it has to go through excessive measures to enter the hall during quiet hours or to eat at the dining halls. And most students require KUIDs to gain entrance to exams and check out library materials. In short, getting stuck without a KUID could make one's life difficult, at least for several days. Students in this situation most likely would end up paying $15 for another KUID.
Turner said that any KUIDs turned into the libraries eventually would be returned to the owner. Nonetheless, she said that authorities obviously could not recover them all.
The increasing reliance of students on one card is disturbing. Students must remember to be careful with them. At the same time, they also can choose just how dependent they become on the card. For their own sake, students should consider using change to reduce the risk.

Non-stop media blitz trivializes tragic event
Perspective
After watching a half-hour filled with inane and trivialized coverage with no new information, I became bored and turned off the TV to play Frisbee with my roommate.
Blame our short attention spans. Blame our emotionless '90s society. Blame whatever you want; I blame the media.

It may seem hypocritical for a journalism major to blame the media for anything, but I can't help it. As much as I

champion free speech, even I understand that there are limits to the First Amendment.
Without self-control, the media pursue a story well beyond when the new and important information runs out. To keep the story rolling until new information emerges, the media begin to ask trivial or philosophical questions: How could something like this happen? Couldn't someone have prevented it? How will this affect people not directly involved?
CNN's reporters asked all these questions and more Tuesday, all the while trivializing the massacre, the very thing they were there to cover.
Without good taste, the media become tabloids, the burr under every respectable journalist's saddle. When the media put aside good taste, they broadcast grusome images of hysterical students covered in blood during the middle of the afternoon, where our children can easily view them after they return home from school.
Though the media have shown worse taste than this incident, CNN need not have shown us some of the more vivid images. First-person testimony from the students gave us plenty of detail about the massacre. CNN didn't need to broadcast a person falling from an upstairs window of the school to show us the victims' desperate escape attempts.
For at least the past 20 years, the study found, respect for the media has dropped considerably. In the past year alone, Americans' opinion of the media has plummeted because of the media's sensational coverage of the Monica Lewinsky scandal and other controversial stories.
The worst part about the media's irresponsibility in covering the killings is that the coverage comes a mere week after published reports showed that Americans no longer trust or respect the media.
The only good news in that study was that most journalists professed a renewed commitment to reconnect with their audience and to improve their poor public standing.
But a week later, those same journalists proved they learned nothing by saturating our televisions with disturbing images from yet another high school killing spree. They pester police officers for the scoop on rescue efforts. They pursue school officials for information about the "Trench Coat Mafia." They track down grieving students and their families to get the emotional angle. All in the name of "getting the story."
The media have a responsibility to cover the news, and the high school killings definitely were news, but they didn't need to broadcast it non-stop all day. We can only take so much bad news before our brains and our televisions turn off.

Kurdish leader's capture helps stem tide of terror
T The Turkish government recently has won a major battle by capturing the Kurdish rebel leader Abdullah Ocalan. For the past fifteen years, Ocalan's terrorist organization,
known as the Kurdish Workers' Party, waged a brutal war against Turkey that claimed more than 30,000 lives, as well as exacted a financial burden. Now Ocalan sits in prison awaiting trial for his crimes. Some exalt him as a freedom fighter, but his actions scream otherwise.
A.
Huseyin Sevay
Guest columnist
The Kurdish Workers' Party is a utopian socialist movement established with the pretext of fighting for an independent Kurdish state. After starting his terror cam
However, as the Turkish army gained increasing control against him, Ocalan abandoned his original demand and began asking for an autonomous region in southeastern Turkey. The Turkish government never would negotiate, not with a terrorist.
Ocaan stayed in Syria by the Syrian government, a sugar daddy to the Kurdish Workers' Party, chose to let him go rather than return him to Turkey in October when he was faced with a stern military threat. Turkey had enough of the party's terror and Syria's support of it.
The Kurdish Workers' Party's terror movement would not have lasted 15 years had it not been for the support that it received from the countries opposing Turkey. It is disappointing to witness the close support that the Greek government and the
Ocalan then went on a three-month journey seeking asylum but ended empty-handed. Finally, his journey came to an end in Kenya, when officials snatched him from the Greek Embassy and handed him over to Turkish special agents. Ocalan was kept at the Greek Embassy under the assumed name of a Greek Cypriot journalist and with the full knowledge of top Greek government officials, three of whom were later forced to resign upon their "failure to protect" Ocalan.
paign in 1984, Ocalan, the general secretary of the party, demanded an independent Kurdish state.
Although millions of Turkish Kurds had not even subscribed to the party's separatist agenda, both Greek governments thought it worthwhile to take a chance on Ocalan. Their move backfired, because it was plainly wrong.
Greek Cypriot administration have provided to Ocalan.
Instead, the Turkish people would like to have seen them treat Ocalan as a terrorist and help Turkey capture him. Such strategy could have helped build trust.
The mainstream Turkish public opinion recognizes that the Kurdish people in southeastern Turkey are economically disadvantaged.
Moreover, the Southeastern Anatolia Project, a $32 billion development project — compare it to the $50 billion that the Turkish government had to spend fighting the Kurdish Workers' Party — also was hampered by the threat of terrorism.
Clearly, an end to terrorism will allow the southeastern region to flourish, more so after the Southeastern Anatolia Project is completed within the next decade.
In Turkey, a Kurdish person has the same rights as any other Turkish citizen. Ocalan studied political science at Ankara University. A Kurdish friend of mine came to the University of Kansas on a Turkish Ministry of Education scholarship. And politicians of Kurdish origin became president and Minister of Foreign Affairs.
Since arriving in Anatolia more than 900 years ago, Turks have been more friends than enemies with the Kurds. Writing such history off will not be that easy. The Turkish people continue to fight for democracy against all internal and external enemies. And peace is all they want.
Back in 1988, Turkey was the country that welcomed the 50,000 Kurdish refugees who fled Iraq to escape Saddam Hussein's persecution. During the Gulf War, the same scenario repeated. Why would Turkey, a state that is supposed to be hostile to the Kurds, want to help them despite the economic hardship at home? Could it be that Turkey cares for the Kurdish people but fiercely opposes the idea of establishing a Kurdish nation on her soil? Would any civilized country think any differently?

Sacrificing bike lane unfair to KU cyclists
As a cyclist, I must comment on Tuesday's article about the proposed "sacrifice" of the Louisiana Street bike lane. Sacrifice is such a pleasant word; the headline alone described the chokehold the University of Kansas and its hellhound, the parking department, has on this community. I am not so concerned about losing this particular bike lane; it is the attitude revealed by such a move that bothers me.
Will we ever see existing parking areas converted for student residents? Yeah,
right. Rather, the University will make it even more difficult for people who come to campus under their own power and send that message that if you are not surrounded by a ton of moving steel, you are an easy target.
This is just one of many symptoms of the disease, dependence on the automobile. Raging now is a debate on who will park in the new garage to be built next to Kansas Union. Perhaps we can set a weight limit. If you weigh over a certain amount, guess what: You drive too much, so walk.
Want to witness irony? Watch people come from Robinson, jump in their car
and drive three blocks. It is not just this "give me convenience or give me death" mentality drivers are notorioul for, but there also lurks a festering hostility toward pedestrians and cyclists.
It is bad enough that at least two or three idiots yell at you from speeding cars whenever you are out for a stroll, but if the University takes that lane away, regardless of how much we use it, it is as though they are giving us a big big middle finger. Thanks a lot, Kearns. When was the last time you got here on two legs?

A Hum will fill the air on the Hill. SUA announced yesterday that the band Hum, along with Frogpond, Panel Donor and Son Venezuela, will perform May 1 at Day on the Hill.
The free concert, which will start at noon and run until about 6 p.m. on the west side of Campanile Hill, will also feature the winner of JKJH's Farmer's Ball, a battle of the bands

He is now sure he will be there.
"I really like them for the layered sound that they have," he said. "It's an ambient type music with vocals that actually seem to hum. I also like the fact that they use a lot of scientific terms and space motifs."
Here's a rundown of the bands:
Hum — A modern rock band out

DAY ON THE HILL
When: Noon, May

of Champaign, Ill. The group has been around since 1989 and is best known for its song "Stars."
Frogprod — A local rock favorite that will be playing to promote its latest album entitled "Safe Ride Home."
Panel Donor — A Lawrence band that has never appeared at Day on the Hill and soon will release its fourth full-length album.
son Venezuela — Plays upbeat Afro-Cuban, Salsa and World Beat music and was recently asked to headline the Klammies, an award show sponsored by Kansas City's PitchWeek magazine.
For Matt Dunnehoo, live music coordinator at SUA, organizing the event was quite an undertaking.
Every year, Day on the Hill is provided with a specific amount of
money used to pay for everything, including the band, portable toilets and security. But during the spring semester, funding for the event dwindled.
"Money is normally not a problem but there was a considerable financial stress this year due to the overall condition of the economic state of the Union and some of the SUA budgeting for events like Paula Poundstone and Archbishop Tutu," Dunehoo said.
And although he's pleased with the outcome, coordinating the event
wasn't all it was cracked up to be, he said.
"I had great aspirations to do something really special, but this became less of a coordinator's dream and more of a bureaucratic scenario, learning the lessons of economics." Dunehho said.
Despite some of the setbacks, Duneboo is confident that Day on the Hill will be a success.
"I'm really happy about Hum playing," he said. "They are more than a great band to work with."
Gay fraternity meeting draws 0

Recent efforts to bring Delta Lambda Phi to KU get no student support
By Jamie Knodel
jknodel@kansas.com
Kansan Staff writer
Although he said he didn't expect swarms of people to be interested in a new fraternity for gay, bisexual and progressive men, the KU student who was attempting to form a colony chapter was surprised when no one showed up at his meeting.
Last night, Matthew Skinta, Andover junior, held a meeting for students interested in bringing the Delta Lambda Phi fraternity to the University of Kansas because he thought that the organization would increase the diversity of KU's greek community.
"It would serve a unique function," he said. "KU has such a large Greek community. This would be a great opportunity to spread some diversity throughout that community."
Skinta said that the fraternity would offer
an outlet where a member's sexuality would not be an obstacle.
"So many of fraternities' and sororities' current social activities, like serenading and date exchanges, are built around heterocentric creech," he said.
Not all members of the gay community feel that the addition of the Delta Lambda Phi fraternity would be beneficial to the University.
Ryan VanMeter, McPherson senior, said that the fraternity would promote isolation.
"I support inclusion, and what this does is excludes — it creates too much isolation," he said. "I don't think 40-60 gay guys all living together is a good idea."
VanMeter also said that he thought it did more for the acceptance of homosexuality in the Greek community when gay individuals were members of traditional fraternities and sororites.
"I support the greek world as it exists," he said. "When guys are openly gay with their fraternity brothers, it helps educate them."
There have been three prior efforts by students to bring a fraternity for gay men to the University, but each has failed.
Skinta said that he went ahead with his attempt because five years had passed since
the last effort and that the University's population was new to the idea.
I think it is worth a chance to see if current students are interested in something like this," he said.
Although no one attended last night's meeting, Skinta said he would continue to promote the idea of a Delta Lambda Phi fraternity chapter at the University.
"It did get people talking about the idea at least," he said.
He said that he would wait until at least next semester to try to generate interest again.
A colony chapter of the Delta Lambda Phi fraternity was formed last semester at Colorado State University. Members of the group said that the entire campus benefited from the addition of the fraternity.
"The community is understanding and rejoicing in diversity," said Peter Colussy. Colorado State University sophomore and Delta Lambda Phi fraternity president.
"It has been an eye-opener and helped acclimate people to the fact that there are gay people out there and that we are normal," he said.

Classrooms in the community became the theme during last night's "Evening with Faculty Fellows" at the Center for Teaching Excellence.

The fellowships allowed the professors to teach one fewer class a semester but retain their salaries.
Gavosto spoke first, saying that many students had forgotten aspects of algebra by the time they had arrived in her Calculus II class and that professors needed to solve this problem quickly.
"Tell them early in the semester, 'You really have a problem
Gavosto suggested having students take the University's math placement test early in the semester to gauge their level and having students work in groups.
Rosenthal incorporated the Internet into his classes about the cultural history of modern Latin America and a class about Los Angeles, which he co-teaches with Valerie Mendoza, assistant professor of history.
With his system, students take an artist they heard about in class and find five sources on the topic, a difficult task without the Internet.
"They'd have to go to the art library, the music library, and Watson," he said. "They're not going to do it."
Kirigin and Staples both spoke last night about getting students involved in Lawrence through classwork.
Kirigin decided to make her students work with local elementary teachers after noticing that the students learned more from interacting with children.
The Community.
"I was trying to bring my own interests into the classroom and reenervize," he said.
Fred Rodriguez, director of the center, said that the fellows were a good cross-section of KU professors' goals.
"I think they really represent the current thinking of the faculty on campus," he said.
Next year's fellows are Bill Tsutsi, assistant professor of history; Sandra Albrecht, associate professor of sociology; Mehrangir Nafiazadeh, assistant professor of sociology; and Haskell Springer, professor of English.

Earth Day celebration endures precipitation
By Jennifer Roush
Kansan staff writer
Early spring thunderstorms and pouring rain didn't keep KU students from crowding into the Kansas Union for the Helping Hands Earth Day Awareness Fair.
Katrina Warren, marketing and promotions coordinator for the Kansas and Burge unions, said she was pleased with the number of students who showed up despite the weather.
"I was a little worried this morning, but the traffic has been pretty steady since 10 a.m.," Warren said.
She said that the Earth Day fair usually attracted about 2,000 students and expected a similar turnout this year. Activities were sponsored by SUA and the Union. Money for the event was allocated from the KU activity fund.
Warren also said that the only event affected by the weather was planting flowers in front of the Union. That event was postponed to next week.
Free events at the fair included flower pot painting, hemp necklace and wax hand-making stations. Students dipped their hands into melted wax six to eight times and waited for it to harden. The resulting impression was then removed and dyed. Students were able to take them home for free, but non-students were charged $2.
As many as 18 students at a time huddled
around the flower pot-painting station, turning ordinary clay pots into works of art.
Other special promotions at the Union in honor of Earth Day included a seavenger hunt for environmentally friendly products in the Union Bookstore and a gardenburger lunch special at the Hawk's Nest.
Student environmental groups, such as KU Environs and Students for Wildcare, also had information tables for the fair.
Matt Dunbar, Environs president, said that members of the groups distributed information about environmental issues and the Environs Earth Day celebration, which be held tomorrow at the Community Building at 11th and Massachusetts streets in case of inclement weather.
Students and faculty who attended the celebration were undaunted by the weather and glad that the University was celebrating Earth Day.
"I'll probably plant an aloe vera plant," she said.

Erin Spiridigliozzl brought her two daughters to the Union to enjoy the events.
"I'm an assistant dean in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, and it's take your daughter I prefer kid — to work day," she said. "The place to be today is the Union, so we decided to partake."

Fraternities, sororities to step out
Annual show combines dancing, philanthropy
By Jamie Knodel jknodel@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
It's not the easiest thing to describe, but people involved in the National Pan-Hellenic Council's annual step show think that stepping is an experience that people will remember.
Tomorrow night, seven National Pan-Hellenic Council fraternities and sororities will participate in the fifth-annual "Steppin' Out" production.
Members of the Alpha Phi Alpha, Kappa Alpha Psi and Iota Phi Theta fraternities and the Alpha Kappa Alpha, Zeta Phi Beta, Sigma Gamma Rho and Delta Sigma Theta sororites will compete to be the best step group.
Step routines are a combination of dance, tap, R&B and chanting that at times involve the entire crowd.
"Stepping is truly an art form," said Ericka Morris, chairwoman for the National Pan-Hellenic Council and Black Student Union week.
She said that each organization had a unique
technique and method of stepping.
"Stepping involves dancing, precision, skill, tradition and rhythm." Morris said.
Tomorrow night's show will be held at Liberty Hall, 642 Massachusetts st., at 7:30.
Tickets can be purchased at the door starting at 6:30 p.m. and will cost $7 for students and $10 non-students.
Morris said that the event sold out last year and that organizers were anticipating a full house again this year.
"People will drive three hours away just to see a step show," she said.
Tiffani Cunningham, the NPHC first vice president, said that proceeds from the event went to charity organizations each year. She said that this year the Latina Sullivan Scholarship Fund, which is awarded through the NPHC, would benefit from the performance.
Last year, the Alpha Phi Alpha fraternity and Alpha Kappa Alpha sorority were the step competition's winners.
Following the step show, a party will be held in the Kansas Union Ballroom. Brown said that the event was free with a step-show ticket, or $5 at the door.

Study examines role of supervised exercise
By Matt Daugherty
Special to the Kansan
A federally-funded research program being performed by exercise physiology professors offers students the opportunity to earn $2,000 for their participation in a study to find out if dieting is necessary to lose weight.
"We're investigating the effects of useful supervised exercise on body weight and composition," said Dennis Jacobsen, the project's coordinator. "I'm in exercise physiology, and we'd like to think that exercise will do everything. The truth of the matter is that a lot of people lose weight when they begin to exercise, they change their diet as well."
The study takes place throughout a 16-month period, during which participants do a 55-minute workout five days a week. In addition, the researchers perform a dietary analysis to establish what the participant's food intake is, and they also undergo a series of tests to examine changes in their body composition.
“It's a lot of work,” said Charlie Williams, St. Louis senior, who is one of the 51 participants. “I haven't lost a lot of weight, but my body has definitely changed, and I'm in much better cardiovascular shape.”
Workouts can include a variety of activities
such as using treadmills, exercise bikes and orbital skiing machines, or swimming and running on campus. Participants wear a heart-rate monitor, and speed and distance measurements are recorded to establish how hard the body worked.
In addition to the regular workouts, a regimen of tests is performed at certain intervals throughout the study. These tests include one-repetition weight lifting maximaus, oxygen-use tests, a muscle biopsy, body fat analysis, a mid-section CATSCAN, and a 23-hour stay in a calorimeter chamber.
Participants also undergo a dietary analysis twice a semester for 14 days at a time. During that time, all of the participants' meals are paid for at Ekdahl Dining Commons on Daisy Hill
Jennifer Ferris, research dietitian for the study, said the purpose of the analysis was not to change diet but instead to find out what kind of daily food intake each participant had.
Jacobsen said there never had been a good study to indicate the effects of exercise alone on body weight and composition.
"Many studies have been performed for six months, but this is the first time a study has been performed for 16 months in a supervised environment," he said.

Education school weaves school safety into classes
Bv Kimberly Erb
Special to the Kansan
As people around the world struggle to understand the tragedy that recently unfolded in Littleton, Colo., school safety is thrust again to the forefront of national attention.
The School of Education recognizes the challenge of preparing its future teachers and administrators for the changing climate in classrooms and factors these elements into its curriculum.
"It is a different world nowadays, and we've got to prepare our teachers for that," said Earle Knowlton, associate dean for teacher education and undergraduate studies.
Knowlton said that the narrow goal of instructing teachers how to teach was no longer adequate for today's society.
"We need teachers who are problem solvers, who are extremely professional and who are better qualified to deal with these things." he said.
The school is now in the process of examining and making changes to its curriculum that will prepare teachers better for such challenges.
"The new program is going to focus on a different kind of teacher — a scholar who knows the literature and who can address different, unexpected situations," he said. "If you go around the schools nowadays, June and Ward Cleaver's kids don't go there anymore."
In his course, Counseling and Consultation Skills for Teachers, Gary Price, professor of psychology and research in education, teaches his students how to recognize at-risk behavior and how to deal with the behavior appropriately.
"Most teachers are very knowledgeable about the curriculum and how to present the curriculum so students will respond to it." Price said. "There needs to be a focus on the person rather than the curriculum."
To be more student-focused, teachers must be vigilant of behavior changes, Price said. These warnings often show in changes of dress, class attendance and grades.
Price said that once these warning signs were identified, teachers must know to make referrals to counselors when needed. They also must be aware of the resources available in their community.
"Teachers are the first line of defense." Price said. "They deal very closely with the
children."
Price said that teachers needed to improve their own listening skills when dealing with troubled children. Teachers often are accustomed to the interview format, where they ask questions and students respond. He encourages teachers to offer an exchange of thoughts and to listen closely to what children are saying.
He said that the teacher education program offered a great developmental model to student teachers because it was designed to put them into the classroom early in their education.
"The kids in the front of the room, the star students and the kids that are acting out all of the time, you notice them," he said. "It's the kids who never say anything that you need to pay attention to."
Steve Lee, professor of psychology and research in education and director of the school psychology training program, said that training teachers to spot dangerous levels of anxiety was crucial in identifying children that might be at risk for a crisis. Anything from divorce to the loss of a part-time job might escalate these levels, he said.
It is also necessary to establish a plan of action when circumstances do escalate, Lee said. A course in classroom management offered by the school's graduate program presents the theories and techniques for handling students who act out in class. It also stresses the need for a plan of action when situations escalate beyond the teacher's control.
"These are things that teachers need to practice regularly in schools like a fire drill." Lee said.
"Planning is the best strategy." he said.
He said that however unlikely, schools now needed to be prepared for violent situations, such as the one in Littleton.
Planning is the best strategy. he said George Crawford, associate professor of teaching and leadership, said his course on principalship stressed techniques to make schools safe as well as to establish a crisis plan. But, he also said that most schools were safe.
"If you want your kid to be as safe as any place in the world, put them in school," he said.

NATO missiles demolish Yugoslav leader's home
The Associated Press
BELGRADE, Yugoslavia — President Slobodan Milosevic has accepted the idea of a U.N.-controlled "international presence" in Kosovo, an Russian envoy said yesterday. Hours earlier, NATO struck directly against the Yugoslav leader for the first time, destroying his luxurious mansion.
In a diplomatic bid to end the conflict, former Russian Premier Viktor Chernomyrdin held daylong talks with Milosevic. It was unclear whether the international force discussed would be armed, under what guidelines it would operate or whether the offer represented a real peace gesture.
NATO has insisted it must lead any armed presence in Kosovo to enforce a peace agreement. Milosevic so far has rejected NATO demands to withdraw his troops.
Chernomyrdin said after the talks that he and Milosevic had considered the possibility of an international presence led by the U.N. in which Russia would take part.
President Clinton said in Washington that he did not have details of what was discussed.
"If there is an offer for a genuine security force, that's the first time that Mr. Milosevic has done that," Clinton said.
Washington for a 50-year alliance anniversary summit, NATI's missile strike on Milosevic's mansion delivered a granite message to Rel

Milosevic: Has refused so far to withdraw troops
Milosevic and his family were not home during the attack on the residence, according to state officials.
As refugees continued to stream out of Kosovo, where hundreds of thousands of ethnic Albanians remained displaced, NATO JETs rained dozens of missiles on the Pristina area, the provincial capital. The Yugoslav state news agency Tanjug called it the fiercest daytime attack yet.
British Foreign Secretary Robin Cook said in Washington that NATO could not permit a rebirth of fascism in Europe a half-century after the Holocaust.
Missiles also targeted Yugoslavia's second-largest city.
Novi Sad, in a rare daytime attack.
But the most startling strike was the one before 4 a.m. that ripped into the white two-story mansion in Belgrade's Dedinje district where Milosevic sometimes lives.
Yugoslav officials expressed outrage about what they said was an attempt to kill their leader, saying three laser-guided bombs blasted Milosevic's bedroom, living room and dining room.
"NATO committed a criminal act without precedence — an assassination attempt against the president of a sovereign state," said Goran Matic, a government minister.
NATO and other Western officials called the building a presidential command post and legitimate military target.
American officials have insisted they are not trying to kill the Yugoslav leader. U.S. law bans assassination attempts on other countries' leaders but no prohibition exists for hitting buildings that are considered command and control centers.
Last December, several of Iraqi President Saddam Hussein's palaces and a house belonging to Saddam's daughter were hit during U.S. and British air attacks.
The NATO attack yesterday signaled a new, more personal phase in its military campaign against Yugoslavia.
Propane bombs show possibility of others' help
The Associated Press
Evidence found at Columbine sparks theories, police say
LITTLETON, Colo. — The two gunmen in the Columbine High massacre were planning to blow up their school and probably had help from others, investigators said yesterday after discovering two powerful bombs in the kitchen that had been built from propane tanks.
"These subjects were not only on a killing rampage, but they were going to destroy the school," Sheriff John Stone said. "They were going to burn the school up."
The discovery of the two 20-pound propane tanks heightened suspicions that the two killers had help from other people, either with building the 32 bombs discovered so far or getting them into the high school.
"It's a feeling from our investigators that the chances are very, very good that we have more than two people involved," sheiff's spokesman Steve Davis said.
CNN reported that a note left by one of the gunmen was a suicide note that indicated the two teenagers acted alone. "This is the way we want to go out," the note said, according to CNN, which cited unidentified sources.
Davis said he had no details on a note that was found at one of the gunnens's homes.
Eric Harris, 18, and Dylan Klebold, 17, armed with sawed-off shotguns, a semiautomatic rifle, a pistol and homemade bombs stuffed with nails and shotgun shells, killed 12 students and one teacher Tuesday before taking their own lives.
The two bombs found yesterday used propane tanks similar to those on backyard barbecue grills. Nails and BBs had been taped to the tanks to create shrapnel.
"Twenty pounds of propane can create quite an extensive amount of damage." Davis said.
District Attorney Dave Thomas said: "No one saw them carry it into the school, and people did see them enter. So we have to explore how that device got into the school."
Authorities already had been looking into the possibility of additional suspects because of the amount of ammunition and explosives left behind.
Meanwhile, crews used bombsniffing dogs as they carefully picked through thousands of backpacks, briefcases and boxes strewn across the carpets, classrooms and hallways. Investigators are also working to trace the weapons to determine how the teen-agers got them.
Fourteen people remained hospitalized, eight in critical or serious condition.
Despite intermittent, heavy snow
dozens of people left bouquets, stuffed animals, cards and balloons in the school colors of blue and silver at a makeshift memorial in a park near the school. The mementos were piled 2 feet deep by early yesterday.
Columbine will be closed indefinitely. Other schools in the district reopened yesterday amid tight security. Officers and school staff members plan "sweeps" and greater security at entrances and exits, Stone said.
Officials said promis and graduations would go on as scheduled.
Columbine's prom took place earlier this month, and graduation is scheduled for early May, though officials did not say whether that will go on as scheduled. Students will finish out the year at other schools.
The attack inspired an apparent copycat act by teen-agers on Wednesday, although there were no weapons involved. Four teens were charged with trespassing in Colorado Springs after arriving at school in trench coats and masks.
Classmates said that Harris and Klebold were part of an outcast group called the Trenchcoat Mafia and that they wore black and spoke German to each other. They believe the gunmen timed the attack for Adolf Hitler's birthday.
Trench coats like the ones worn by the two gunmen have been banned in Denver and two other Colorado districts since the attack for fear they could be used to hide weapons.
Europe's largest telecommunications firm eyes United States
The Associated Press
LONDON — Having just agreed to form Europe's biggest telecommunications company, Telecom Italia and Deutsche Telekom are making no secret of their next goal — to expand across the Atlantic Ocean.
Europe, Latin America and Asia.
British vision onto fjordyur
The two firms announced a long-anticipated agreement yesterday to merge in an $80 billion deal that ranks as one of the largest corporate unions of all time. They would form a giant phone company with more than 100 million customers in
munications
"The United States will be the next area of expansion," Telecom Italia chief executive Franco Bernabe said at a joint news conference with his Deutsche Telekom counterpart. They did not offer specific targets for their push into the lucrative U.S. market.
Deutsche Telekom and Telecom Italia to form a pan-European phone company that can compete with giants like AT&T Corp. of the United States and British Telecom-
At the same time, the adoption by 11 European countries of the euro, a common regional currency, has made it easier for the two former national phone monopolies to finally break their old, stay-at-home habits.
"Our operation is very much in line with the integration process of Europe," Deutsche Telekom chief executive Ron Sommer said.
Deutsche Telekom also has a 10 percent stake in Sprint Corp., the No. 3 U.S. long-distance phone company. Sommer sits on Sprint's board
Sommer refused to comment when asked whether Deutsche Telekom was planning a much-rumored takeover of Sprint.
At Sprint's Kansas City, Mo., headquarters, representative Bill White said the company wasn't looking for a merger partner.
"We believe we have the size, scale and scope to compete both in the national and international marketplace," he said, adding, "Of course we have a fiduciary responsibility. If an offer would come in that was
more than we believe we could earn over the long term for our shareholders,we would have to listen to it."
The new company, which has not yet been given a name, would have revenues of $62.8 billion and an operating profit of $13.9 billion, based on 1998 figures. It would rank as the world's second-biggest telecommunications firm in terms of revenues after Japanese telephone giant NTT, which had revenues last year of $69 billion.
The deal, which would give Deutsche Telekom 56 percent of the
new company, was prompted by Telecom Italia's effort to avoid a hostile takeover bid from its smaller Italian rival Olivetti.
The new company would be run out of joint headquarters in Bonn, Germany and Rome, with Bernabe and Sommer working as joint chief executives and chairmen.
Some industry analysts have expressed doubts about the commercial logic of the merger, but Bernabe and Sommer pressed the case for growth. "To get global reach, we need to expand," Bernabe said.
U.S. won't destroy supply of smallpox
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Defying appeals from scores of nations, President Clinton has decided to retain America's stock of the deadly smallpox virus, the White House said yesterday.
Clinton concluded that the virus samples must be maintained to develop new drugs and vaccines to treat or prevent the disease, which was eradicated around the world in 1980 through an inoculation effort.
The United States and Russia are the only two nations with known small-pox stocks, but the administration fears it could have fallen into other hands, raising the threat of bioterrorism. Smallpox is highly contagious and kills about 20 percent of those afflicted.
"No one else is supposed to have it," a senior administration official said. "We don't know who else might have it. But the virus stores very easily in freezers, so it could be elsewhere. We don't know what has happened in the last 20 years ... who might still have the virus and may not be telling anyone that they have it."
"It could reemerge as a terrorist threat," said the official, who insisted on anonymity. "It could re-emerge as an accident from a laboratory that doesn't know it has it. It could start spreading very quickly from that."
The World Health Organization recommended in 1996 that the U.S. and Russian laboratory caches be destroyed in June. The United States and scores of other nations agreed that the stocks should be destroyed. But Clinton ordered that the decision be reviewed.
"Four years ago when this was last considered, the threat of bioterrorism was not nearly as defined," the administration official said.
Announcing Clinton's decision, National Security Council spokesman Mike Hammer said, "The president has decided to seek a delay in the destruction of declared smallpox stocks."
Russia also is opposed to their destruction
recent months they believe the virus has been distributed to spots in Russia beyond the known laboratories, perhaps in places with less effective security controls.
A study released last month by experts at the National Academy of Science's Institute of Medicine recommended that the surviving laboratory specimens of smallpox be kept alive as a safety net in case the disease breaks out again.
Bioterrorism experts have said in
The study warned that with much of the world's population no longer protected by inoculation against smallpox, the virus could pose a serious threat. Most Americans below 30 never have had the inoculation, and remaining smallpox vaccination stocks could treat only about 6 million people. Even those supplies are deteriorating.
"The most compelling need for longterm retention ... would be the development of anti-viral agents or novel vaccines to protect against a re-emergence ... due to accident or intentional release," the study said.
Army helicopter crash kills 7 at Kentucky's Fort Campbell
Four others aboard hurt in Black Hawk accident
The Associated Press
FORT CAMPBELL, Ky. — An Army Black Hawk helicopter crashed early yesterday at Fort Campbell, killing seven people and injuring the other four aboard.
An Army photo of the crash scene showed the helicopter scattered in several large pieces in a wooded area beside a road.
The UH-60L helicopter went down at Fort Campbell about 7 a.m., the Army said. The Black Hawk is the primary helicopter for air assault, air cavalry and medical evacuation units.
One victim died at the Nashville, Tenn., hospital, and two others were in critical condition, according to hospital officials.
The others injured in the crash were being treated at Blanchfield Army Community Hospital on Fort Campbell. The Army did not release their conditions immediately.
Fort Campbell, headquarters for the 101st Air Division, straddles the Kentucky-Tennessee line about 200 miles southwest of Louisville.
In 1996, two Black Hawks collided at Fort Campbell, killing six soldiers. In that crash, the Army said the air crews failed to coordinate well enough, and one did nbt warn the other that it had lost sight of the second chopper.
Three months earlier, a MH-47E Chinook from Fort Campbell crashed in a western Kentucky field, killing five people aboard.

"We've been working with him so that I
can sleep without a bracing aid."
Spontaski said. "So that at

having with having a service dog as a companion. Marino said
"I trust him with my life, and with my daughter's life explicitly," she said.
Having a service dog enables individuals with disabilities to be more independent, said Susan Brown, Community Coordinator at the Independence Inc., 20001 Haskell Ave.
Jabberwocky is in the initial phases of training, and it could take up to four years before he could pass certification tests. Dogs can be certified by a number of social agencies, including the American Red Cross.
A priority in the training process is getting the dog used to any social setting. So this spring, Jabby has been attending classes with Marino.
She said that she'd been taking Jabby everywhere she went to get him accustomed to things so that nothing would startle him.
"A service dog needs to function in a capacity that's not disruptive." Marino said.
situations so that hearing would still be Brown said that an important part of training a service dog was making the dog's safety a priority. For example, there are no regulations about taking a certified service dog to a zoo, but such a situation could be dangerous for the dog.
In addition to training a dog, a master must learn how to accommodate the dog's needs, Brown said.
"He does well in any situation. He can go to restaurants, the grocery store, and he loves to go to the movies," she said. "In airplanes

he'll sit in the seat right next to me and eat the peanuts."
Once Jabby has been socialized, Marino said that she would focus on having the 13 week-old puppy master simple obedience commands.
"Once we get past housebreaking and chewing, it should get easier."
Marino said that although Jabby and Ivan competed for attention, the dogs worked well together.
"Jabby learns off of Ivan. We have a sibling advantage when working with Jabby," Marino said. "The companionship between them is just as important as anything."
To be a certified service dog, hearing dogs must be able to perform at least five of 10 functions, including hearing a fire alarm, a crying baby, a stove boiling over, shattering glass and a doorbell.
Marino said that repetition was key to teaching a dog to master these tasks.
"You create a sound environment, get them excited about it, and reward them when they perform appropriately." Marino said.
But it's not all work.
Ivan can shake hands, give a high-five, roll over and even whisper.
"You have to teach them tricks between tasks, so it doesn't seem like its all work and no play," Marino said.
Alex, 5, who is not deaf, takes part in the training. Ivan has been just as much a part of her life, as her mother's. They are nearly siblings.
"I've even found myself saying 'Tvan, leave your sister alone.'" Martino said.
But it is very rare that Ivan or Jabby would leave Marino alone.
"I now have an audience when I go to the restroom. They all have to lay there on the floor and watch me," Marino said.

REVIEW
Fountains of Wayne
Utopia Parkway
Rating : A
By Matt Cox
Kansan music boy
Fountains of Wayne combines four decades of pop music and add a slight modern twist to make it their own.
The modern rock song with a '60s hip-swing backbeat called Denise is warming up the radio these days. Collingwood sings "She controls me. She can't help herself. Won't you tell me...do you love me Denise?" The song boasts tons of "la la's" and "woah woah's" to make a hard rocker sick and a popster happy. Great song.
Songwriters Chris Collingwood and Adam Schlesinger are back with their second album, Utopia Parkway. It's all about living the teenage life in suburbia, things they love, and things they love to satire.
Hat and Feet takes a different turn in style. It has a repeating acoustic lead with music as smooth as a cool summer's breeze.
Collingwood can't feel this breeze in the song, however.
*Prom Theme* is the ultimate satire of every prom theme song. Collingwood sweetly sings to a piano accompaniment and a traditional love song beat. The tone is sad and is so well-done that if you didn't listen to the words, you might think it was a serious love song.
because he sings about drowning in his own sorrow. He sings, "I'm just a sitting duck that just ran out of luck."
Not everything is so introspective.
Collingwood sings "But tonight we feel like we're stars. We'll play our air guitars 'cause we're eighteen."
The band seems to turn into The Beatles on Laser Show. You can almost see McCartney and Lennon shaking their torsos as the guys shout "Oh yeah, we're goin' to the laser show."
The song is about the experience of seeing a Pink Floyd and Metallica concert. It's a weird combination, but the satire works. They seem to poke fun at typical concert-goers for no apparent reason with a heavy layer of piano and a go-beat.
Nope.
In Lost in Space, The Beatles and Weezer seem to combine for a story about a valley girl. This complements a previous song called Valley of Malls. This song pokes fun at the way valley guys and gals shop.
Actually, most of this album makes fun everything that is stereotypical about the yuppie community.
The entire album is a pop-lover's dream. It has few songs that surpass the three minute mark and melodies that are instantly memorable. College music afficionados should give this album a try.
Oh well. It's hilarious.
MOVIE REVIEW
Pushing Tin Rating : F
By Brendan Walsh Kansan movie critic
Have pity on the actors in Pushing Tin. The poor direction wasn't Cate Blanchett's fault; Billy Bob Thornton had nothing to do with the miserable writing; John Cusack couldn't help the horrid pacing of the film, and Angelina Jolie couldn't have made the characters any more believable.
Nick Falzone (Cusack) is a hotshot air traffic controller in New York City. He has a suburban home, a nice Cadillac, cute kids and a loving wife, Connie (Blanchett).
Just like Maverick hated Iceman in Top Gun, Nick finds a rival in Russell. The two, usually fueled by alcohol, compete to see who can have more planes in his allotted air space, who can shoot more free throws at a work party and who can hold a burning match longer. If there was any more testosterone in this movie, female audience members would grow facial hair.
Turbulence comes with the arrival of a new air traffic controller, the mysterious Russell Bell (Thornton). Russell is a maverick air traffic controller, who heroically — or foolishly, depending on how one looks at it
directs planes within feet of one other in an effort to land every plane on time while maintaining order in the skies.

DAT V 000

DAT V 000
These challenges apparently lose their thrill, so Nick sleeps with Russell's tawdry wife, Mary (Jolie).
Mary feels obligated to tell her husband about the affair, which greatly upsets Nick. In the tightknit community of air traffic controllers, sleeping with your co-worker's wife is taboo. Russell, an understanding guy, tells
John Cusan, above, and Billy Bob Thornan, left, are not smiling. This is because their new movie, *Pushing Tin*, is awful. Contributed photos
Nick it's OK because, after all,
"If you ever want to sleep at night, don't marry a beautiful girl."
Nick doesn't trust Russell's good will and becomes paranoid that his wife is about to get it on with Iceman, err. Russell. For Nick, paranoia leads to breakdown, which leads to the departure of Connie. This leads to soul searching. After a brief stint in Colorado, this leads back to Connie.
This is the stupidest movie of the year — at least among those that didn't purposely try to be stupid. It's never clear whether Russell is a mystic shaman, who has come to bring wisdom to New York, or just a big jerk. Russell's pairing with the 19-year-old Mary is about as likely a mix as Democrats and the National Rifle Association; and it's never explained why Nick isn't content with his wife.
The pacing of the movie is incredibly slow most of the time, which contrasts sharply with the scenes in the air traffic control building. They show the stress of the job through half-second scenes and erratic camera angles that leave the audience just as stressed as the

controllers.
The 1986 film *Quicksilver* showed that riding a bike delivering messages wasn't a fun job, but at least the audience didn't have to sweat along with Kevin Bacon.
Australian Blanchett does a great Long Island accent; Thornton does what he can for his character; Jolie succeeds in making her 19-year-old character look 35; and Cusack puts on his usual loser-guy charm when given the opportunity. But despite the potentially great cast, the movie is slow, boring, incomprehensible in parts and definitely a waste of time.

Sports world pauses play in Colorado after killings
The sports world in Denver stopped this week.
Following the shooting deaths of 15 area high school students by alleged gunmen Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold, the Rockies canceled games scheduled for Tuesday and Wednesday. The Nuggets canceled Tuesday night's game. And the Avalanche postponed its first two NHL playoff games against San Jose.
When reports first came out of the school, students were saying the two accused were targeting athletes because the athletes had picked on the so-called "Trenchcoat Maffa."
For years, the captain or the quarterback has been the golden boy of the high school. "Jocks" get away with
things other kids can't fathom
What father doesn't dream of having a son grow up to play in the World Series? What mother doesn't dream of having a daughter play point guard in the WNBA finals?

Erin Thompson
sports@kansan.com
Because of the stigma that
comes with playing sports, the athletes in high school have been known to be some of the least sensitive students, known for picking on the less physically blessed of the school.
Tuesday, for the first time, the tide turned on the athletes, and they were the victims. But no matter the depth of the torment the "jocks" may have forced on the "Trenchcoat Mafia," what would ever possess an adolescent to possibly think the only answer was shooting fellow students.
Don't get me wrong, I played varsity sports in high school. I hung out with the varsity athletes. Some of my best friends play baseball at Division I schools now. So I know not all high school athletes take advantage of a system that has been warped in their direction for years.
The shootings have permeated the television the past week. Whether writing in the newsroom, trying to eat, sleep or do anything else, the tragedy in Colorado has preyed on my mind.
Should the sports teams have canceled their games, adding to the 15 minutes of fame Harris and Klebold were probably seeking through their suicide mission?
1. for one, agree with the decision to cancel the games.
In a sports world full of Lattrell Sprewells and Alan Iversons and players seeking millions, the move was a refreshing breath of humanity.
Explainting his move to postpone games, Avalanche general manager Pierre Lacroix said, "We have to act like all these kids are our kids."
The Rockies have decided to wear a Columbine High School patch on their right sleeves for the remainder of the season.
When an event is able to reach the depths of professional athletics, you know it's unforgettable.
Trying to comprehend what makes it acceptable for teen-agers to think making bombs and having guns is an answer to social ostracism has made my head hurt this past week.
I just want to go back to a sports world full of smiling Sammy Sosas hitting home runs and debates about college basketball being a training ground for the NBA.
Where have you gone Joe DiMaggio?

Jayhawks versus Jayhawks
Tomorrow's scrimmage ends spring session for football team
By Michael Rigg
mtrigg@ukans.edu
Kansas writerwriter
Dress rehearsal finished. Exit stage right. It's over.
The Kansas football team takes the stage tomorrow at the annual spring scrimmage to mark the end of its spring session.
The scrimmage is scheduled for 1 p.m. at Memorial Stadium.
The format for the spring game will stand far short of what Jayhawk fans will be seeing in the season opener against Notre Dame in August.
"It will be sort of a limited edition of things," Allen said. "I don't like to scrimage on Astro Turf, but we're at the conclusion of things, and we want to give it a pretty good go. So you won't see David Winchub getting 30 carriers."
Some of Winbush's and fellow running back Mitch Bowles' lack of activity tomorrow will be picked up by Henri Childs, Allen said.
"Last year, we spotted Henri and tried to get him as many chances as we could," Allen said. "We've been extremely impressed this spring as far as his mental capabilities and picking things up. He allows us to do several things with him."
For Childs, he wouldn't mind being the do-all man tomorrow. Allen said the multitalented back would get plays in at the fullback and receiver positions, as well. That is just fine with Childs.
"I think it's better than just one position, because you can never tell what I'm going to do." Childs said. "I can do it all."
Trying to keep Childs from doing it all tomorrow will be the job of linebacker Dariss Lomax and the rest of the defense. Kansas was ranked 107th nationally against the run last season, so Lomax said he will try to use tomorrow as a coming out party for the new, improved defense.
"We'll be strong defensively," Lomax said. "We'll put on a strong exhibition and give the fans something to cheer about."
The spring game will also give the Jayhawks a chance to show off a new winning attitude. Childs said the team bonded during the winter and has a new attitude this spring.
"Now we believe we're a winning team," Childs said. "I expect us to be one of the
top four teams in the Big 12 this season."
top four teams in the Big 12 this season.
Jayhawk fans will see the first steps toward that goal tomorrow.
Sparks - Goal
Spring Game Notes
Tomorrow will be the final competition between tight ends Jason Gulley and David Hurst until the fall. Hurst, who redshirted last season, is running neck-and neck with Gulley, who started the final seven games of 1998.
Allen said Hurst was the better receiver of the two, but Gulley was the better blocker. Hurst, meanwhile, said the competition can only make the team better.
"They're very competitive right now which is great," Allen said. "Right now, we would probably play them both."
"We just need to come in and make the plays when [Allen] gives us the opportunity," Hurst said. "Our receiving core is so strong, we have to be able to take pressure off them."
Allen said that defensive lineman Dion Johnson, offensive lineman Dameon Hunt, linebacker Chaz Murphy, tight end Shane McDermott and defensive backs Bilal Cook and Chad Coellner all were injured and would not play tomorrow.
But he also said that defensive back Tanner Hancock and wide receiver Byron Gasaway, who were injured earlier in spring practice, would play tomorrow.

Kansas track team to face tough field at Drake Relays
By Mike Miller sports@kanson.com Kanson sportswriter
Steeped in tradition, the Drake Relays is in its ninth decade of existence and attracts the top college teams and athletes from around the world.
The men's and women's track teams travel to Des Moines, Iowa, to compete in one of the nation's oldest and largest meets, the Drake Relays this weekend.
An estimated 8,651 athletes representing more than 751 teams will compete.
TRACKLAND FIELD
A split-squad last weekend — one at Mt. SAC, the other at Arkansas Invitational — gave the Jayhawks an opportunity to compete at two high-quality Schwartz coid.
"Texas, Drake and Mt. SAC, those are the big meets right now," said coach Gary Schwartz.
And the weekend paid dividends.
Though no athlete won at the Mt. SAC meet, located in Carmel, Calif., three Jayhawks established personal bests.
Thirteen Jayhawks placed in the top 10 at Arkansas, highlighted by freshman Andrea Bulat's win in the javelin.
"When you go to a big competition like that, you hope that it brings out the best in your athletes," Schwartz said.
Schwartz said that he expected more of the same this weekend because Drake tended to bring out the best in Kansas track teams.
Kansas athletes have won three outstanding-meet performances at the Drake Relays since 1952. Mile runner Wes Santee was honored twice, in '52 and '54, and mile runner Jim Ryan won the honor in '67.
Three-time event winners at Drake include Karl Salb, who won the shot put in '69 through

Baseball looks for upset win this weekend at Texas A&M

Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas baseball team, 11-30 overall and 4-20 in Big 12 play, takes to the road again this weekend for a three-game series with Texas A&M at College Station.
The No. 3 Aggies, 36-10 and 16-4, like so many Kansas opponents before them, are nationally ranked and are powered by an explosive offense and solid pitching.
The Jayhawks enter the series coming off of a win and with some momentum. But even while riding that momentum, the quality of Kansas' opponent remains the same.
"They're a very good baseball team," coach Bobby Randall said. "They've got great pitching, great hitting and great defense."
Despite the offensive firepower, the Aggies are headed in the opposite direction of the Jayhawks. This week, they were defeated 15-5 by the University of Houston.
The Aggies are led by hard hitters John Scheschuk and Dylan Holt. Scheschuk is hitting .368, has eight home runs, 10 doubles and 37 RBI, while Holt is not far behind with a .339 average and a team-leading 21 homeruns.
Baseball
That score, coupled with the confidence the Jayhawks gained from their dramatic 10 inning victory against Rockhurst Wednesday night, has Kansas believing that it can beat A&M.
"We've had some pretty heavy at bats in recent games," Randall said. "That win took some of the pressure off, and maybe now the bats will be a little lighter and we can go down and steal one."
Randall said that the Jayhawks have the personnel to hold down the Aggie bats, but that they have to play flawlessly to get a win.
"We've got the guys that can hold the score down, and for us to beat them we have to play
'A' baseball and hope that's good enough, 'Randall said. "We really have to play 'A+'."
Several Jayhawks are nearing milestones as they head into the series with Texas A&M. Randall is one win shy of 400 for his career. If he manages to get it this weekend, he will become the fifth active coach in the Big 12 to reach the mark.
Also, senior hurler Chris Williams continues to climb the all-time appearance chart. Williams stands in sole possession of fifth place with 66 career appearances and needs only one more to tie Chris Corn for fourth at 67. Williams will start game one.
Wednesday's hero, Brandon O'Neal, who hit two home runs and was the winning pitcher, looks to keep a late season hot streak and a career-high 10 game hitting streak going at College Station.
Game One begins at 7 tonight.
Game Two, at 3 p.m. tomorrow,
will be broadcast live on FOX
Sports Southwest and may be
picked up by other FOX affiliates.
The Jayhawks are 0-2 this
year in televised games. Sunday's finale begins at 1 p.m.

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday:
This is the year you get your house fixed up just the way you want it, or maybe move. You can afford it. In May, your invitation with the status quo will become unbearable. By June, you'll be willing to speak up, and by August you could cinch the deal of your dreams. This isn't going to happen by itself. You're going to have to do the work. In November, a partner points out what's still missing, and in December you can put in the correction. Take on new responsibilities in February, and by April you hardly recognize yourself.
Aries (March 21-April 19): Todav is a 7.
You can relax, once you've given your job away. Don't panic, there are parts of it you can still do better than anybody else. There are other parts, however, you might as well delegate. To have things so neatly smoothy, give the difficult jobs to somebody who thinks they're easy.
Taurus (April 20-May 20): Today is a 4.
Taurus (April 20-May 20): Today is a 4.
Athletic types will be in rare form today, so if there's a game nearby, check it out. It's also a good evening to have people over to your place, with one minor exception. If you leave that one name off your list, you'll probably have a more tranquil evening.
Gemini (Mav 21-June 21): Todav is a 6.
Gemini (May 21-June 21): Today is a 6.
Your natural leadership abilities should be coming out today. You could be thrust into the position of teaching others. You may realize you don't know everything, but that doesn't make any difference. Some of them know less than you, and you'll be very helpful.
Cancer (June 22-July 22): Today is a 5.
Cancer终于22年5月29日到来。你 may not have quite as much money as you need. Since you're always thinking of more things you'd like to have you can always find use for a little more money. And today, you might be able to get it. This is an excellent day to ask for a raise or just打压好 a better job. Go for it.
Leo (Julv 23-Aua. 22): Todav is a 7.
Even though you are still facing a bit of opposition, you're very lucky now, and probably very charming, too. When things are going your way, you have a magnanimous quality about you. It's like you can afford to be generous because you so much.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sep. 22): today is a 5.
This would be a good night to have people over to you house. It looks like they'll be in fabulous moods, and they might even bring everything you need — the food, the beverages, even the fun and games. All you have to do is provide the electricity and a place to sit down.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Today is a 6.
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Today is a 5.
Looks like there a couple of interesting surprises today and perhaps a new development. You may get to learn a different way of looking at an old situation. There could be breakage at home time, so be careful around fragile objects. If your roommate is one of those, remember to be nice.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Today is a 7.
Conditions are moving along slowly again, but it looks like it's going in a good direction. This would be an excellent day to make decisions regarding money, ask for a raise or get a new job. Stability and abundance are both indicated, so do whatever you need to do to make it happen.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Today is a 7.
The surprises today are good ones, with the possible exception of one little incident tonight. Before you race off on your adventure, review your lists, wrack your brain, ask your friends. What did you promise that could get you in trouble if it isn't done? Once you're sure it's handled, go in peace.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Today is a 6.
**Copyright 2014-2015, Teach Yourself Computer.**
The objective you have in mind for today might turn to be more complicated than you thought it would be, and perhaps expensive. Try not to be frustrated if your project is going slowly. There's no point in rushing things now. Just take your time and do it right.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Today is a 5.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Today is a 5.
Your partner is in a strong position today. If you don't already have a partner, then find one. You want someone who can catch for you in a situation when it's difficult for you to function. This doesn't mean you're not good enough, by the way. It simply means you're learning how to delegate.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Today is a 6.

This looks like a very good day to make some career decisions. If you're not in the right job, well, why not? Why not go and apply for one you'd like better? Conditions are excellent right now for good work, good pay and good friends around you.

assistance, police said yesterday. North Mankato police received the 911 call at 1:55 a.m. Wednesday and arrested Eller where the alleged assault happened, Capt. Wayne Hoffman said. He declined to say where it occurred.
Eller, 57, was a star defensive end with the Vikings' "Purple People Eaters," the front four that helped Minnesota to four NFC championships and Super Bowl appearances in the late 1960s and 1970s.
NORTH MANKATO, Minn. — Former Minnesota Vikings great Carl Eller was arrested after a woman reported that she had been sexually assaulted, police said yesterday.
Eller was being held in the Nicollet County Jail.

Judge: Cocaine relevant to Lewis malpractice suit
Lewis' widow, Donna Harris-Lewis,
has sued four doctors, saying they
misdiagnosed and mistreated her
husband's heart problem.
BOSTON — Claims that Boston Celtics star Reggie Lewis used cocaine can be considered as evidence at a malpractice trial about his death, a judge ruled.
Superior Court Judge Thayer Fremont-Smith ruled Wednesday that jurors can hear the accusations of drug use if the doctors' lawyers can prove cocaine was a factor in misdiagnosing Lewis.
He died at age 27 while shooting baskets at Brandie University in July 1993.
Three months earlier, he collapsed during a playoff game. A team of New England Baptist Hospital doctors diagnosed him with a life-threatening heart ailment and warned him his career was in leopardy.
Lewis transferred to Brigham and Women's Hospital, where a team led
by Gilbert Mudge diagnosed him with a less-harmful neurological condition, and said chances were good that Lewis could play again
BOSTON
CELTICS
An autopsy revealed a badly damaged heart.
Harris-Lewis has vehemently denied her husband ever used cocaine.
Mudge testified that 16 days before Lewis died, the basketball star acknowledged using cocaine, but said he had stopped. The lack of full disclosure early on made it impossible to make a proper diagnosis because Lewis hid his cocaine use. Mudge said
Lawyers for Lewis' widow asked that any evidence of drug use be barred from the trial, to begin next week. They argued the issue was raised "for the sole purpose of trashing" Lewis' reputation.
But the judge said the issue was admissible.
"If a person uses cocaine, it can cause structural damage to the heart," Fremont-Smith said. "It does become relevant, in my mind."

Kansas also has thirteen athletes in the Drake Relays Hall of Fame, the third highest among NCAA schools.
Athletes on this year's team who have a shot at the hall of fame include two-time All-American sophomore Scott Russell, three-time All-American senior Candy Mason and two-time All-American sophomore Andrea Branson.
Russell, who has qualified for the NCAA Championships in both the javelin and the hammer throw, won the javelin at Drake last
year with a throw of 232-6. It was the fourthlongest throw in school history, but Russell has already thrown farther twice this year.
"I like going to meets like Drake and Mt. SAC because I know that the quality of throwers there will be outstanding," Russell said.
He also broke a 28-year-old school record in the hammer throw with a toss of 213-7 earlier this season.
Branson, who placed 13th in the pole vault last year, set a school record this year with a vault of 13-1 1/2. It broke the record set by Mason last year. Mason also vaulted 12-7 last weekend at Mt. SAC. Both vaulters are ranked on the top ten in the pole vault.
Mason will also compete in the heptathlon.
Other athletes who come into the relays on a roll include Bulat, whose mark of 167-5 in the javelin is the fourth best in school history.
in which she is ranked third after setting a new Big 12 Conference record in March.
"I'm just throwing meet by meet, hoping to get in a good throw every time," she said.
Senior Kevin McGinn's time of 3:49.14 in the 1,500 meters at Mt. SAC was a personal best, while sophomore Charlie Gruber, ran the 800 meters in 1:49.02, the sixth fastest time in school history.
Hurdler Eric Patterson ran a 14.34 in the 110-meter hurdles, his best time of the season, and Dave Tomlin's time of 21.46 in the 200 meters was his best of the year.

Texas and Texas A&M to visit for doubleheaders
By Brandon Stinnett sports@kansan.com Kansan scripter
Softball
The Kansas softball team has a chance to go from eighth to fourth in the Big 12 conference this weekend when it plays host to Texas and Texas A&M in two doubleheaders at jawhawk Field.
The Jayhawks are coming off Wednesday's 15-3 rout of Southwest Missouri State where they set a new school record for hits with 20. The team also knocked in the second most runs in school history, and its nine runs in the third innere was
the second most in school history. Chances are the Jayhawks won't put up similar numbers Saturday against 11th-
ranked Texas. The Jayhawks likely will face junior Crysta Williams, one of the nation's top pitchers, in Game One. Williams, who played for the 1996 U.S. Olympic team, currently leads the Big 12 in ERA (0.78), strikeouts (245) and opposing team's batting average (.125). She is also second in wins with 18.
Kansas won one and lost two to Texas last season with both losses coming against Williams. The Jayhawks scored just one run on three hits against her, but Bunge remains optimistic.
"We played Texas really well last year," she said. "Williams has made the comment that she doesn't like to face us."
Freshman catcher Leah Tabb will be facing
Williams for the first time Saturday.
"I'm looking forward to batting against her," Tabb said. "I like to hit against better pitching. It seems like more of a challenge."
Freshman Shelly Musser broke out of her slump against Southwest Missouri State, finishing 4 for 8. Musser said she has a plan for facing Williams.
her."
"She has the same pitching style as one of the girls I faced all summer," Musser said. "I'll be using some of the same strategies I learned on
Kansas (23-24) will face No. 18 Texas A&M on Sunday. The Aggies are in a three-way tie for fifth in the conference. Kansas is in eighth place, but can move into fourth by splitting with Texas and sweeping Texas A&M.
"We need to go 3-1," Bunge said. "Obviously we'd like to win all four games, but 3-1 is a reasonable goal."

The Kansas women's golf team beat the weather at the Big 12 Conference Championships this week in Boulder, Colo., but the Jayhawks couldn't quite beat the competition.
Oklahoma State won the team competition by shooting a three-round score of 906. The Cowgirls and Texas A&M, who finished
The Jayhawks, and the rest of the Big 12, avoided a pre-tournament storm and played under great conditions. After finishing the first day of competition in sixth place, the Jayhawks slipped to finish in 11th place.
"The kids jerry well," Kansas Coach Jerry Waugh said. "Our goals weren't to set a specific place to finish. This season we wanted to try to improve with each tournament, and by and

Waugh said that Kansas routinely shot between 310

and 315, and the Jayhawks shot 310 and 314 in the first two rounds before slipping in the final round, shooting a 327.
"Overall, I feel we played a good tournament," Waugh said. "Every team played well in this tournament, and we had to play the best we ever had to stay in the hunt."
Freshman Ashley Lowery said that she thought the Jayhawks began the tournament well, but that they could not quite keep up with the rest of the field.
"The second day we really needed to play well, and we played consistent, but not well enough to stay with everyone." she said.
Oklahoma State senior won the individual crown in a playoff, after finishing in a three-way tie with Wendy Martin of Oklahoma and Brooke Lancewrence of Texas Tech.
Kansas was led individually by senior Mandy Munsch, who, barring an individual invitation to the North-West Regional, finished her career with her fourth top-20 finish of the spring season. Her score of 230 was good enough for a tie for 16th place. Her first round score of 74 had put her in fourth
place, and that score was the lowest one-round total for the Jayhawks.
"Mandy played very well, and that's the one ratifying thing for seniors — to go out with a good performance." Waugh said.
Also competing for Kansas was junior Susan Tessary, who shot a 238 and finished in 41st place.
Lowery finished one stroke behind Tessary for 44th place, but she felt she could have placed much higher.
"I did okay on the first day, and I hit the ball well, but my putting was terrible," she said.
Sophomore Ashely Bishop tied for 54th place with a three-round tally of 246, and junior Carrie Padden finished in 56th place with a score of 247.

Women's tennis looks to extend win streak
By Amanda Kaschube
sports@kansan.com
Kansas sportwriter
The women's tennis team will close its conference season this weekend when it plays Texas tomorrow and Texas A&M on Sunday at home.
The Jayhawks look to add to their five-game-winning streak and 7-2 conference record. Kansas swept the state of Oklahoma last weekend, defeating Oklahoma and Oklahoma State con
Coach Jenny Garrity attributed the recent winning streak to the team's determination and refusal to give up easily.
"They've really come together because they've seen their goals in front of them," she said. "We have accomplished a tremendous amount this season
amount this season."
PENN YORK UNIVERSITY
Sell: Will finish her final conference games as 'Hawk
After having a losing record for the entire season, the Jayhawks are 11-10 overall. Garrity said the team's record did not reflect its level of play.
"We've played a lot of top 20 teams in the earlier part of the season," she said. "We've been playing really hard."
As a team, the Jayhawks moved up five spots to No.43.
Kris Sell will be honored this weekend as the team's only senior. Sell, ranked No. 27, has compiled a 26-13 overall record.
"I just need to stay focused and take one point at a time," she said. "If I have my focus and concentration, I'll play my best."
Sell has won three consecutive
matches at the No.1 singles position.
Garrity said while Sell would be excited to play this weekend, it also would be an emotional time for her.
"Kris has a deep love and appreciation for her team and KU," she said. "She is the biggest Javawk."
Kansas will have its hands full with No. 7 Texas and No. 39 Texas A&M.
The Jayhawks are 0-9 against the Longhorns, including an 0-3 home record. Texas has not lost a conference match since joining the conference in 1997.
Texas' Sandy Sureephong is ranked No. 33 at No.1, six spots behind Sell. Sell is the highest ranked singles player in the Big 12.
Kansas has posted a 2-3 record against Texas A&M. Last spring, the Jayhawks lost 5-4 at College Station.
Texas holds the top spot in the conference, followed by Texas A&M and Kansas, who are tied for second.
"To be tied for second is a strong compliment to our players," she said. "We've pulled out a lot of big matches."
Kansas also will look for wins from junior Brooke Chiller who has won eight of her last nine matches.
"I have more confidence now," she said. "There's more pressure now not to lose."
Freshman Lisa Malliaah also will look to increase her perfect conference record to 9-0. She is 21-10 on the season.
"Our main goal is to play like we've been playing," Garrity said. "We don't want to let the ranking influence us."
All the Jayhawks hold winning records in singles and have won at least two matches in a row.
The Jayhawks will play Texas at 10 a.m. tomorrow at Robinson Courts, and Texas A&M at 10 a.m. Sunday, weather pending.

The Kansas men's tennis team hopes to end a fourgame losing streak tomorrow against Oklahoma State, the last place team in the Big 12 Conference.
By Melinda Weaver sports@kansan.com Kansas sportwriter
In consecutive weekends, the No. 40 Jayhawks, 10-7 overall, and 2-5 in the conference, lst to No. 5 Texas 5-2, No. 21 Texas A&M 5-2, No. 8 Baylor 7-0 and No. 28 Texas Tech 5-2.
"We can be really good in the long stretch or really bad in the long stretch," coach Mark Riley said. "The challenge is to try to pull it back together. We need a good match to get psychologically well again."
This match may come Saturday in Stillwater, Okla.
Against Baylor, Kansas was shut out for only the third time in the '90s.
Senior Luis Uribe said he did not think the team was prepared to play at Baylor's level.
"Baylor was better prepared and had all the confidence," Uribe said. "We weren't prepared to play as well as we have to play
against a top 10 team. In order to beat a top 10 team, we have to prepare like a top 10 team."
Riley said the problem against Texas Tech was Kansas' level of desire.
"We didn't do a good job against Texas Tech." Riley said. "We didn't compete as well against them as we did against Texas and Texas A&M. We didn't deserve to
Oklahoma State, 6-10 overall and 0-6 in the conference, is suffering from the loss of Pavel Kudrenac who graduated. Last season, Kudrenac was the top-ranked player in the nation in both singles and doubles.
win."
One of the strong points of the Oklahoma State team is its No.1 doubles team of
Rob Howarth and Matt Prentice, who are ranked No. 47 in the nation.
Uribe said the key to victory against Oklahoma State was regaining their broken confidence.
"I am trying to get the team ready and help get our confidence back," Uribe said. "Hopefully, with a win this weekend, we can get it back before Big 12. We have a good chance. If we all play good on the same day, we can beat anybody, but it hasn't happened yet."
This is the last regular season match before Kansas prepares to travel to College Station, Texas, for the Big 12 Championship tournament. The championship will be held between April 29 and May 2.
Riley said the team could go as far in the tournament as its KANSAS TENNIS
seniors would lead it.
"We are capable of doing well in the Big 12," Riley said. "It's up to our seniors. The seniors have to get this ship righted. If you look at our record, when the seniors do well, we do well. If they come up short, we will too."

Commentary
HAWK Club provides incentives to true fans
Anyone who has been reading my columns this semester should know by now that I love KU sports — all Kansas sports.
During the basketball season, pretty much all I wrote about was Kansas men's basketball because that's basically all anyone wants to hear about. Since basketball has ended, though, I have tried to talk about other KU sports and have tried to generate support for those other teams.
100
I have received a lot of friendly responses to my articles, which have asked students to support the football, baseball and softball teams. One response came in the form of a handwritten thank you from Terry Allen.
Brandon Jones

I also received a
I pass a call from Michael Henry, the founder of the new HAWK Club (Helping Athletics Win at Kansas).
The HAWK Club is a great idea that is overdue. It is a group for true Kansas sports fans who support teams other than the men's basketball team. For a donation of $15, anybody can become a member of the group, which will be in full swing next year.
The benefits of membership are great for the Kansas sports fan. You get a really cool T-shirt (pictured in Tuesday's Kansan) and a membership card, and the best part is that you get to sit in the best student seats at the home football games, which will be reserved only for members of the group. The group also is going to give students a chance to speak with the coaches of various teams, and they will be having tailgate parties before games.
This group is going to be great, and I would highly encourage every student who reads this column to join. Kansas State has had this type of a group for quite some time, called I-CAT, and it has been a real success there. It is time for the students of Kansas to start
showing some real support for the sports other than basketball, and this group is a great start.
Tomorrow is the football team's spring game, which will start at 1 p.m. Club representatives are going to be there supporting the team and promoting their new organization. They will have free hot dogs and will be passing out fliers about the new organization. The representatives will be there to talk to anyone interested in the group who may have some questions about it.
If you are already interested enough and want to join, you may do so at the Kansas ticket office in Allen Fieldhouse. Show your Kansas spirit, join this group and help support Kansas sports. College sports are a big part of the college experience, so take the opportunity to get involved and be a fan.
The spring game will be the last chance to watch the football team until August. It is supposed to be nice out tomorrow, so go down to Memorial Stadium, eat some free dogs, work on your tan and watch the team scrimmage. It should be a lot of fun.
In other news around the sports world, why in the world did the Indianapolis Colts take Edgerrin James over Ricky Williams?
I said when I started writing my column that I wouldn't be writing about professional sports, but I had to say something about this. Besides, Ricky Williams played in the Big 12 Conference, so this is still college-related.
Ricky Williams is one of the best college running backs of all-time, whereas James had two good games to end his career. Even if James goes on to be great, I still think that this pick was the stupidest pick I ever have seen. Williams is going to be a stud. The Colts could have had Peyton Manning and Ricky Williams (the next John Elway and Terrell Davis), but I guess it is easy to see why the Colts always stink.

Team's success credited to new attitude, coach
Women's soccer nears perfect season
By Chris Wristen
cwristen@ukans.edu
Kansas sportswriter
The Kansas women's soccer team is on the verge of doing what many deemed impossible for the young squad.
The Jayhawks stand two games away from an undefeated spring season. This comes just six months after the team went 5-13-1.
It may have taken a new coach and a new attitude.
but the changes are now paying off.
"Things have been going great," said junior midfielder Cynthia Dahle. "I think a lot of it has been a different mentality. Our attitude has changed, and we are working a lot harder."
The thought of an undefeated spring has given the team a new goal to shoot for.
"It'd be awesome," Dahle said. "We'd win more games in the spring than we did all last fall. It'd just be a nice note to end on."
The team stands at 4-0-1 or it heats into the final weekend of the season. Coach Mark Francis said he
believed two more victories would be the ideal way to finish off his first season at KU.
"That would be nice to do."
Francis said. "I talked to the
it, and I think it would be a good way to finish off the spring heading
SOCIAL SPORTS
towards the fall."
To stay undefeated, the team will have to win tomorrow at Creighton and then return home to beat Southwest Missouri State on Sunday at SuperTarget Field. Creighton is a traditional
power from the Missouri Valley Conference. Southwest Missouri State struggled in the fall, finishing 4-14-1. Despite that deceiving record, the Jayhawks know they will have to be ready to play.
"We just need to keep playing like we have been and keep working together," Dahle said.
"They've come a long way," he said. "One of the biggest things is they have a lot of confidence now."
Francis has been pleased with his players' improvements over the past few months.

Pippen arrested on suspicion of driving drunk
Rockets star denies he was intoxicated
The Associated Press
HOUSTON — Scottie Pippen's struggles as a Houston Rockets player spilled off the court yesterday when he was arrested in the wee hours on suspicion of drunk driving.
spot in the playoffs and snapping an 11-game losing streak to the Rockets.
Teammates supported Pippen during a brief practice before jetting to Los Angeles for a game with the Clippers today. Pippen didn't attend the workout, but coach Rudy Tomjanovich said he would accompany the team.
I'm hoping it won't be a distraction," Tomjanovich said. "We are trying not to make any assumptions. It would be unfair to comment when nothing has been established. I'm sort of used to unexpected things happening. You just try not to lose your composure."
Pippen had four points and three rebounds and was repeatedly beaten defensively in one of his w o r s t games as a Rocket.
HAMBURG
SCHOOL OF
ARCHITECTURE
Houston, the No. 4 seed in the Western Conference playoff, was upset by the Dallas Mavericks 109-95 Wednesday night, keeping the Rockets from clinching a
"Scottie is my teammate, and I'm behind him 100 percent." Charles Barkley said. "This is not

Armageddon. It happened.
Scottie Pipen probably wasn't the only person stopped last night.
"Scottie Pippen is a role model. If all the kids grew up to be like Scottie, the world would be a better place."
Barkley planned to offer serious support to his teammate but also said Pippen wouldn't get off lightly with the team.
"I'm going to get on the
plane and take the PA and say, 'Attention Mr. Pippen, last call for alcohol,'" Barkley joked.
The officer who stopped Pippen around 1:30 a.m. said the Rockets star ran a red light. A member of the department's DWI task force was called after suspecting Pippen was intoxicated, said police spokesman Fred King.
Pippen, 33, did poorly on the field sobriety test and was taken into custody, where he was videotaped and given the opportunity to take a Breathalyzer test, King said.
After he refused the Breathalyzer, Pippen was booked on suspicion of DWI and released on $500 bond just before 7 a.m. His arraignment is set for Thursday before Harris County Court-at-Law Judge Sherman Ross.
Pippeh has not formally hired a lawyer, but Houston lawyer Rusty Hardin said he was set to meet with Pippeh next week after both men returned from road trips. The Rockets go on to play at Phoenix on Sunday.
"He adamantly denies he was intoxicated," said Hardin, who spoke with Pippen after the arrest.
Pippen has struggled to fit into the Rockets' alignment after earning seven NBA All-Star appearances and helping the Chicago Bulls win six NBA championships. He broke out with a season-high 31 points on April 15 against Portland and had 22 points and 11 rebounds in a victory over Seattle on Monday night.
In January, Pippen was traded from the Bulls, with whom he had spent his 11-year pro career, and signed a five-year, $67.2 million contract with the Rockets.
Pippen, who has been slowed by back and hand injuries but hasn't missed a game, is averaging 14 points and six rebounds, both below his career averages. His six assists per game is slightly better.
"It's been my experience that a lot of times, something negative off the court brings you together and makes you stronger on the court," teammate Matt Bullard said.

Volleyball club plays nation's best
By Melinda Weaver sports@kansan.com
Kansas sportwriter
Though money prevents it from competing as often as it would like, the Kansas men's volleyball club has found the opportunity to contend with some of the nation's top intercollegiate teams.

The season lasts from October to March and consists of several tournaments in Kansas City, a few games at Allen Fieldhouse and a few travelling tournaments.
The team has traveled as far as Michigan State, the Air Force Academy and Kentucky to compete against other Division I and II club teams.
"When we go on trips, we have a lot of fun," said Dennis Heier, Blue Springs, Mo., senior and club president. "We want it to be competitive, but we are in college, and we want to have fun, too."
The bulk of the team's play is in the Heart of America region where it competes against teams not necessarily consisting of college students.
There are three levels of competition: A, BB and B. The Jayhawks play at the A level, made up of teams that have played together for awhile and show strong talent. B is for players who are older people or young kids who play for fun. BB is the level between A and B.
The team averages three tournaments each semester, but Heier said the members would like to compete more often. Lack of funding prevents them from being able to travel to more tournaments.
Student Senate designates a set amount of money for recreation services, which is distributed among the club sports. Any additional money comes from player dues and fund-raisers.
An additional limitation that the team faced this year was small membership.
Heier said he hoped to see 30 people on the team next season, more than twice this season's membership.
"That would make more competition among club members and make us more competitive," he said.
The highlight of Kansas' season was a tournament victory in Kansas City. In another tournament, the team finished second.
Nic Slayton, Derby junior, said the travel tournaments were much more competitive.
"We play against teams that give guys scholarships to play," Slayton said. "It's tough competition."
Club members at some universities have developed a ranking system similar to the one for Division I varsity sports. Because Kansas does not compete in enough tournaments it is not eligible for a ranking, but the team has played some of the top-ranked teams, including No. 5 Graceland.
The team is mostly made up of men who played volleyball in high school for various leagues and enjoyed the competition.
"I loved the game when I was in high school," Heier said. "It's one of the funnest sports out there, and it helps keep me in shape."
The team practices on Mondays and Wednesdays for two to three hours, but coach Greg Nielson said it was not a rigid schedule.
"I try to be lenient because I know the players have homework and busy schedules," Nielson said. "I have to be calm about practice because it isn't a varsity sport, and they aren't getting scholarships or anything."
Nielson said the structure of the team also was different from varsity sports.
"My main responsibility is delegating playing time," Nielson said. "The students have to pay to play, so it's important that everyone gets playing time. They need experience, so they have the confidence when they need to play."
Because the students have to pay to play tryouts are open, and everyone who tries out makes the team. Based on their skill level, they will get assigned to the first or second team.
"It's no different from the Spanish club, but we sweat when we get together," Nielson said. "It's just a chance for people to get together with others who have the same interest and probably wouldn't meet otherwise."

Heier said that the biggest advantages of joining a sport club were the friends and competitiveness.
"The best part is the friends I have made and the competitiveness of playing," Heier said. "I love the competition you have to go through to win and even to earn your spot on the team."

Nation bands together to remember students
The Associated Press
LITTLETON, Colo. — As rays of sunshine burst through a slate gray sky, more than 70,000 mourners clutched flowers, blue and silver balloons and Bibles yesterday as they wept for victims of the Littleton high school massacre and wondered why it happened.
Authorities delayed opening the service by 30 minutes as twice as many mourners as expected had arrived, despite the 40-degree temperature.
Beneath a fluttering awning of blue and white, the Columbine High School colors, Vice President Al Gore and retired Gen. Colin Powell led an array of dignitaries surrounding the makeshift stage stretching across a movie theater's concrete steps.
At 1:30 p.m., brothers Jonathan and Stephen Cohen of Littleton opened the service with a simple "Hi," and sang a song they wrote in tribute to 12 students and one teacher killed by the gunmen, who then killed themselves.
Jonathan Cohen, a junior at Columbine, was trapped in the choir room when the shooting started. Stephen, a senior, was in the cafeteria where many students

A circle of about 40 students and Lawrence residents gathered at the South Park Gazebo last night for a vigil. They voiced their outrage about recent acts of violence — particularly the shootings in Littleton, Colo., last week.
"This must stop," said Jane Stover, vice president of the student group Working Against Violence Everywhere, during the opening speech of the vigil. "Children must stop seeing violence as a solution to their problems."
Stover and Corey Snyder, of the Center for Community Outreach, organized the event to show support for the friends and families of the people killed in Colorado and to ask teachers and parents to look for warning signs of violent behavior in children.
Stover also stressed the need to stop neglecting students in schools and instead to make them feel worthwhile.
"Many students find themselves marginalized or without a place to fit in during their
teenage years," she said. "Every person must realize his or her value, and they should not be isolated."
After candles were lit, pieces of paper were passed around the circle with details about the lives of each person killed in the shooting. After the name was read, the crowd said "May their family and friends be comforted."
The crowd also took a vow of nonviolence, which included pledges to practice nonviolence and to refuse to retaliate violently when provoked.
Stover said WAVE would work to bring nonviolence programs to area schools within the next year.
"Students will have the opportunity to express their feelings about violence in the community and in the world," Stover said. "They will practice nonviolent resolutions to conflict and make a pledge to nonviolence."
Matt Sherriff, Leawood freshman, said he attended the vigil because he had been upset by the shootings. He said the experience helped him to deal with the situation.
"Personally, I came because I needed closure to this," Sherriff said. "I've been having trouble with it. One of my friends actually had a cousin who went to that high school so it hit kind of close to home. I thought it was really good, it's already helping me out."

Sweat is pouring down J.J. Hanson's face. As he takes drags of a cigarette in the small, graffiti-adorned backstage of the Bottleneck, he explains his desire to become a pro.
"I pray to God at night to help me give up my bad habits and hit the road," says Hanson, who plays guitar for Coach Mack. "I've been waiting my whole life to play on the road."

Hanson was one of the many ambitious musicians present Saturday night at the Bottleneck, 737 New Hampshire St., for KJHK's Farmer's Ball. The competing bands were trying to gain exposure, free studio time and the opening spot for Day on the Hill.
After two nights
of preliminary competition that cut the original pool of eight bands to four, the band Starsky received the most votes in the finals on Saturday. Coach Mack came in second and the Palin-

Both partial and impartial audience members cast ballots for the candidates who presented their campaign promises via rock 'n' roll.
But in this event, there were no negative campaigns, dirt diggers or cover-ups. Just rock bands showing their stuff.

Mirror stickers reflect ideas on diversity
By Chris Hopkins
chopkins@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Only you can prevent racism.
That's the message that 14-by-6 inch stickers placed on about 100 mirrors around campus send to students and faculty.
The clear stickers with blue type read "the only person who can end racism" are placed at eye level and promote diversity.
Jeremy Johnson, Overland Park junior; Courtney Burbridge, Denver senior; and John Shepard, Overland Park senior, created the stickers for the KU committee Blueprint for Diversity. Some of the stickers were placed on mirrors last Thursday and Friday. More stickers will go up today.
Charles Higginson, journalism program associate and member of Blueprint for Diversity, said the committee developed the idea when they decided the bathroom was the only place every KU student eventually went.
"We're always looking for something that's going to reach people in a new place or a new way," he said. "We try to do something different each semester."
"It's basically to promote diversity," Johnson said. "We decided to take a little more of a direct approach."
"There are messages like that every where in our culture," she said. "I just glanced at it and knew exactly what it was."
Jenny Knopp, Lenexa senior, said she did not think the stickers would be very effective.
Other projects the committee has
Ann Weick, dean of the School of Social Welfare, said the group always produced quality work.
Higginson said Blueprint for Diversity usually worked with the Arts Team, a group of advanced graphics students of which Johnson, Burbridge and Sheard were members.
completed include hanging a pair of large posters and putting "table tents" on tables at the Kansas Union.
"Working with the Arts Team has been a really wonderful experience," she said. "Every semester they come up with a wonderful new project."
ine campaign comes after a pair of crimes in February and March involving swastika burnings in a residence hall door and into the floor at Oliver Hall. The dragging death of an African-American man in Texas earlier this
year also prompted the campaign.
Johnson said this sort of display had more of an impact on students than other methods.
"Telling people these things just wasn't enough." he said.
rne sticker campaign cost the group about $300. Higginson said, which it received from the Equal Opportunity Office.
"It's a fairly low-budget deal, we don't have a lot of money to spend." he said.
Higginson said the committee was impressed when it first saw the stickers in use.
"We just took turns going into the bathroom and looking at it," Higginson said. "We thought it was even more effective than we could have imagined."

Hearst Awards put University, KU reporters in top ranks
By Dan Curry

Kansan staff writer
The University of Kansas secured fifth place in the print category of the annual Hearst Journalism Awards yesterday.
Hearst awards are given to undergraduates based on their performance in monthly competitions in categories such as profile-writing, feature-writing, spot news and sports-writing. Last year, the University took fourth place overall.
An institution receives its ranking based on how many and how high its students place in the competitions.
"We've been in the top five the last three to four years," said Rick Musser, professor of journalism. "It's good, but it's not as good as we've done."
Five KU students made it into top-20 rankings at the competitions this year.

His editorial explored funding options for Robinson Center, he said.
Duncan, who has won two previous Heart awards, was pleased at the University's fifth-place ranking.
"You're happy to win one," he said. "To win another, is even more surprising."
FIVE KO students placed among the top 20 in individual competitions.
Musser compared the Hearst ranking to basketball.

"It's good to be in the top five," he said. "But it's better to be No. 1 or No. 2."
Universities that placed in the top three won cash awards of $10,000 for first,$5,000 for second and $2,500 for third.
The University of Missouri earned the first place award in the print category, while Northwestern University was second and the University of Florida was third.
Besides Kansas and Missouri, the only other Big 12 Conference school that placed in the print category was the University of Nebraska, which took seventh. Still, our overall ranking is good 14.
Sam, a turn-place overall ranking is good, Musser said. "There are a lot of people who would be glad to place to fifth." he said.

Storms nearly rain out annual Floating Flicks
Water had a little more to do with SUA's Floating Flicks than usual this year.
The annual event, which was scheduled for Friday, was postponed because of rain to sundown on Saturday.
More than 50 students showed up for the event at Potter Lake, said Jeff LaCroix, SUA public relations coordinator.
"It was a little disappointing," he said. "The turnout was a little less than expected. It probably had to do with the fact that it was rescheduled and the fact that it was kind of cold on Saturday."
A floating screen on Potter Lake presented the film The Incredible Mr. Limpet to viewers on blankets and lawn chairs, and a large spotlight was used to draw attention to the event

Pittsburg State appoints new college president
PITTSBURG, Kan. — Thomas Bryant, dean of education at Pittsburg State University since 1993, was named president of the school to succeed the retiring John Darling.
Bryant becomes Pittsburg State's eighth president. The position carries a salary of $120,848.
Bryant was appointed Saturday by the Kansas Board of Regents, on which he has served as interim executive since July 1998. He also had served eight months as the school's interim president in 1995 before Darling's appointment.
"Dr. Bryant brings a unique perspective to this position," said Board of Regents chairman Bill Docking.
Bryant joined the university in 1970 as an associate professor of health, physical education and recreation. He was named a department chairman in 1985 and acting dean of the School of Education in 1992.
"I feel I have been preparing for this job for the past 29 years," he said. "I have worked under some great presidents, and I feel I have learned something from each of them."

On Wednesday, in the aftermath of the Littleton, Colo., high school killings, the gun group trimmed its conference schedule to one day from the three that were planned and canceled seminars, luncheons, exhibits and festivities.
"We have an obligation to our members," Powers said. "We will be coming to conduct that meeting."
The only sideline event that had been left on the calendar, an evening reception for Republican Rep. J.C. Watts of Oklahoma, also has been canceled, Powers said.
He would not say whether people in Denver have been taking Mayor Wellington Webb's advice and calling the NRA to tell it not to come.
Webb asked citizens to put pressure on the nation's largest lobbying group for gun owners.
"We don't want them here," said Denver City Council President Allegra "Happy" Haynes.
National strides made to prevent global crises
WASHINGTON — The International Monetary Fund said Sunday it had given final approval to a change in procedures that would make billions of dollars in resources available to countries in hopes of averting future global financial crises.
The IMF endorsement represented a major victory for President Clinton. He had put the idea forward last fall, at the height of the economic crisis, which has pushed one-third of the globe into recession and sent America's trade deficit to record levels.
At a hastily called conference, IMF Managing Director Michel Cardessund and Italian Finance Minister Carlo Ciampi announced that the agency's executive board had given final approval to new "contingent credit lines" to make IMF loans available to countries before a crisis strikes.
Ciampi, who is chairman of the IMF's policy-setting interim committee, called the approval by the agency's executive board, a "good start for the spring meetings" of the 182-nation lending institution.
U. S. officials also are hoping to win endorsement for an array of smaller proposals that will prevent or at least better handle future crises.
Drug talk from parents decreases children's use

NEW YORK — Surprise, mom and dad: When it comes to frank talk on drug use, your kids are listening.
whose parents ignored the issue
"With parents, we can cut drug use dramatically. Without them, we cannot," said James E. Burke, chairman of the partnership.
However, a single conversation probably won't get the job done. Although 98 percent of parents said they had spoken with their children about drugs, only 27 percent of teens said they learned a lot about drug risks at home, the survey found.
"What's truly complicated about this is that parents really believe they're doing their job in this area, but the data suggest otherwise," Burke said.
Among teens who learned a lot at home, marijuana use was 26 percent. Among those who said they learned nothing at home, 45 percent said they had used marijuana.
For inhalants, the first group reported 14 percent, while among the latter group 28 percent had used them. For LSD, the figures were 7 percent and 20 percent; for cocaine, 7 percent and 16 percent.
Former radium patients deserve cancer warning
WASHINGTON — Steve Culppepper had endured blinding headaches, double vision, brain surgery and the violent nausea of chemotherapy. Then a doctor connected his cancer to nasal radium treatments he received as a boy.
Culpepper remembered that small amounts had been inserted through his nose to treat chronic ear infections, but he never worried about it as he grew older.
Culpeper, who rarely got so much as a cold, had not had a physical in years, much less a consultation about an obscure Cold War-era medical procedure no longer used.
"If someone had said anyone having these treatments in the '50s or '60s ought to immediately go see an ENT (ear, nose and throat) doctor, he would have gone," said Culpepper's widow, Patti, of Newport Beach, Calif. "I know he would have gone."
Culpeper, 55, died in January after 16 months of treatment for nasopharyngeal cancer, which affects the nose and upper throat area.
From the 1940s to the mid-1960s, it was common practice in civilian and military medicine to use nasal applicators containing 50 milligrams of radium to help drain and balance pressure on the inner and outer ear.
The government sees no need to warn former radium patients, a stand that enrages public health advocates.
Over the course of a typical treatment, the ear tissues closest to the radium capsules would have received a radiation dose about 100 times greater than that received by survivors of the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

were shot or hit by shrapnel from pipe bombs. Roman Catholic Archbishop Charles Chaput of Denver opened the services with a prayer.
"Surely the past week is about as much suffering as any community can bear," Chaput said. "Love is stronger than death. I believe that. Perhaps beyond all this suffering, something good can be achieved."
Other dignitaries included U.S. Sen. Wayne Allard and most of the state's congressional delegation, Gov. Bill Owens and other state officials, Christian singers Amy Grant and Michael W. Smith and the Rev. Franklin Graham, son of evangelist Billy Graham.
A quartet of F-16 fighter jets from the Colorado National Guard zoomed overhead, led by Columbine graduate Capt. Scott VanBek. A private plane trailed a banner overhead reading: "Our love and prayers are with you."
The growing crowd was a swarm of dark winter parkas splotted with bright floral bouquets. Florists in Colorado and California donated 25,000 bouquets of white and orange lilies, yellow sunflowers and daisies, pink carnations and roses of all hues.
For some, after absorbing continuous media coverage since Tuesday, it was a wrenching experience just to walk a few blocks from the heavily damaged high school.
Tim and Donna Weitzel drove 250 miles from Grand Junction to attend. They left their children, ages 11, 5 and 3, at home on Colorado's Western Slone.
The Weitzel's said they did not know any students at Columbine or their families, but their reaction to the violence was common to parents everywhere.
The service shifts the physical and emotional focus away from the school, where classmates Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold killed 12 students and one teacher before committing suicide.
Deputies suspended their investigation and media briefings for the day, concentrating instead on directing traffic for the service.
Police found a diary detailing the plot during the past year, as well as bomb-making materials and weapons in plain view in the bedroom of one of the dead suspects.
Jefferson County school officials said Columbine's 1,800 students would return to classes Thursday at Chaffield High School, a few miles south. They said Columbine's graduation ceremony would be held May 22 at Fiddler's Green, a large suburban amphitheater normally used for rock concerts and dance performances.

Senator's petition fights recreation center vote
By Heather Woodward
hwoodward@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
J. D. Jenkins, Nunemaker senator, began circulating a petition Friday in hopes that Chancellor Robert Hemenway would not sign the proposal for a $16 million recreation center.
Although students voted in favor of constructing a new center 2,817 to 1,238,the front letter of the petition claims that vote was misleading because only 20 percent of the student body participated in the election.The letter also argues that students did not understand the proposal.
"Students were misled about what they were voting for," Jenkins said. "I've talked to people who said they didn't realize what exactly what they were voting for and that was intentional."
In his letter, Jenkins wrote that posters about the recreation center led students to believe that the new center would be as big as Kansas State's facility when in
Jenkins said he hoped to have 2,000 signatures by Friday so he could send the petition to Hemenway as soon as possible.
Scott Kaiser, student body vice president and vice chair of the Student Recreation Task Force, said the task force already had begun taking steps to move ahead with the project.
"This is one of the biggest voter turnouts in the last five years," Kaiser said. "If there was ever an election to use as a gauge for what students are thinking, this is the one to look at."
Kaiser said he did not think the information presented to students about the recreation center was misleading and said the ballot included specifics about the project.
"This petition is an exercise in

misleading," Kaiser said. "This letter is more misleading than anything the Recreation Task Force has done. The new recreation center will put us on par with the other Big 12 schools."
Jenkins also filed a complaint with the attorney general last week because he wanted the Elections Commission hearings to be open to the public. Ann Premer, editor of the University Daily Kansan and Nadia Mustafa, Student Senate reporter for the Kansan also filed a complaint. Those complaints have been forwarded to Douglas County counsel Winton Winter.

Construction alters downtown bus route
Two city projects on Ninth Street have forced minor changes in the downtown KU on Wheels bus route.
The construction of a storm water sewer and the replacement of a waterline between Vermont and Massachusetts streets on Ninth has closed the block.
Wayne Popp, owner of the Lawrence Bus Company, said the construction affected only the downtown route. Popp also said the stop located on Ninth and Massachusetts streets was the only one changing. The new stop is one block south at 10th and Massachusetts streets.
Charles Pirtle, of the Lawrence Bus Company, said they had added another stop to the downtown route. This stop is between Tennessee and Kentucky streets on Ninth Street.
Pirtle said about 50 to 100 people used the downtown bus route daily.
Chad Voigt, storm water engineer, said the projects would take about five months to complete.
"We're replacing the sewer sewer and adding new lines to extend it," Voigt said. "Realistically, the projects should be done in September, but these things are always subject to the weather."

A sewer replacement project on the Lawrence Bus Co.'s original route forced it to create an alternative.

Students celebrate Earth
Former Sierra Club president talks to environmental groups
By Jennifer Roush jrush@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
Despite overcast skies and cool temperatures, about 200 people celebrated Earth Day with members of KU Environments at the South Park gazebo Saturday.
Although Earth Day officially was observed Thursday, Environs celebrated Saturday to accommodate the schedules of their members and guest speakers.
Many KU and local environmental and social groups, such as the Environmental Studies Student Association and Amnesty International, had
information tables at the event.
Entertainment was provided by local belly dancers, and Casey Neill, a folk singer who has performed at Earth First rallies.
The keynote speaker at the event was Adam Werbach, former president of the Sierra Club. Werbach was the youngest president in the organization's 104-year history. He still serves on its board of directors and is the host of a new magazine show on the Outdoor Life Network, called The Thin Green Line.
He told the crowd that he was "sick of environmentalists" and that environmentalists needed to quit blaming others for the
werbach also said he did not like the book 50 Simple Things You Can Do To Save The Earth because it ignored the fact that governments and corporations also must be held accountable for the destruction of the planet.
He suggested that people practice something he called radical localism. He urged them to resist corporate urban homogenization.
destruction of the planet.
I really hate the way Wal-Mart comes into a town and just ruins things," he said. "I can get off an airplane in any city and see the same Starbucks and the same Borders and the same Jiffy Lube. There's no sense of place."
THANK
At the conclusion of his speech, Werbach asked audience members to imagine that they were in a time machine and to decide when and where they would go.
CLEARLY IN THE WILD

He then asked for a show of hands for how many people would go to the past. More than half of the crowd said they wanted to go back in time.
Werbach used that straw poll to emphasize his point about environmentalists being caretakers of the planet's future.
Many KU students who attended the event said they were impressed that Werbach had made such an impact on the environmental movement at such a young age.
"The challenge is not so much to be environmentalists but to be futurists," Werbach said. "We must protect the Earth for the next generation."
"I enjoyed his speech," said Dan Thalmann, Lawrence senior and president of the Jayhawk Audubon Society. "I'm happy to see younger environmentalists out there making a difference and getting involved."
Laura Fleming, Prairie Village senior, also was impressed with Werbach's remarks.
"I think it's really inspirational to see someone our age make a difference," she said. "It makes you see what a difference one person can make."

Editorial
Students should know their rights about appealing parking tickets
Parking tickets are nearly inevitable for any KU student who chooses to bring a vehicle onto or near campus.
Offenses can be as minor as not parking within the lines or as significant as illegally parking in a handicapped space. Either offense can be met with a glaring pink envelope full of monetary consequences.
In most cases, the person receiving a ticket is in the wrong. However, it is possible for the parking department to issue tickets in error.
Students should know when they have the right to challenge such tickets.
Don Kearns, parking services director, recently spoke about the topic to a group of residents at Battenfeld Scholarship Hall.
Kearns said cars without permits that are parked in residence hall lots can only receive one ticket a day. If a car is parked longer than 24 hours or has been moved to a different space in the lot, it may receive additional
Department not allowed to issue multiple tickets in residence hall lots.
tickets.
The parking department stresses that this is only true in residence hall lots. In other lots, as well as at metered spaces, more than one ticket may be issued.
If a student has received more than one ticket in a day, he or she has the right to confront the parking department through a personal appeal or an ex-parte appeal.
A personal appeal requires the student to fill out a form describing the wrongful issuing of the ticket, including drawings and photographs if necessary.
Three justices will review the appeal and decide whether a court appearance is necessary. If it is, an attorney will be assigned to represent the student at a 30-minute hearing at traffic court.
If a student does not wish to appear in court, he or she can file an ex-parte appeal, which will be judged solely on the content of the written appeal.
Students with questions or concerns about ticket appeals can examine the parking department's Web site at www.ukans.edu/~parking, which contains rules, regulations and other useful information.
The parking department, like any other University agency, is not perfect. It is capable of making mistakes.
Before students pay hard-earned money for a ticket, they should be aware of their rights. They also should be knowledgeable about ways to fix the problem.
This could not only ease the process of getting a ticket voided, but it also would ease the often tumultuous relationship between the parking department and students.

worked just fine if Addendum 1 to Plan A had not been an issue. What is this slight detail? Parking, of course.
As almost every college student knows, when driving a car, one must eventually
Park — as in stop, pull over, remain in one place for a while.
As far as I know, pulling up onto the lawn of Watson and calling it a parking job just isn't cutting it these days.
Unfortunately, you also can't leave your car running, hazards flashing, for more than a few hours. Our friendly and persistent parking department will absolutely ensure it.
So the only option left is parking your car in a certified, official parking spot.
There is, of course, a problem with this. On any given night there are no spaces in the entire county where your car could fit in between two painted lines.
If, by chance, you find a spot, you can count on walking past where you came from on your way to the library.
Considering all this and more — I'm going with Plan B. and I am walking.
Instead of facing the relentless (and friendly) parking department and its regulations, I'm going to brave the journey on my own.
I'm going to face a campus scattered with emergency phones here, there, but not everywhere — dark streets, quiet corners and dangerous sidewalks with
only my pepper spray and my three heavy flashlights to protect me.
Funny, but I could have sworn that other nearby universities, such as Kansas State, have a safe-walk system where one call will get you two escorts wherever you need to go.
Now, why wouldn't a great big University like ours have something like that to offer its students?
Some of you may have asked yourself this question on campus, near your residence hall or in the Watson stacks. If you actually found a parking spot in Douglas County, it was probably behind Blake Hall if you were going to Watson, or by the stadium if you were going to the Kansas Union. These are the two buildings used the most after the sun goes down, yet the parking available is both sparse and potentially dangerous.
Many students find themselves walking to their destination to avoid parking, or walking long distances from where they parked their cars.
Considering all of this, and accepting that we will never have enough parking on campus to conveniently accommodate the masses, why aren't we trying to change something that won't cost the University millions of dollars in concrete?
The University needs to implement a safe-walk program that will ensure student safety, and students should demand it.
Remember those people last week who were diving through crowds to get a coalition pin on your backpack?
Now that they are elected,ask them about their plans for campus safety demand better and then hold them to their promises.
A safe-walk program would not only be beneficial for students late at night; it also would enable me to leave my pepper spray, headlamp and three flashlights at home.
I will, however, hold on to my hiking boots and the food. It is always better to be prepared.
After all, it is a jungle out there.

"I got up on time," it seemed to say.
"What's your problem?"
Pulling the blinds shut, I began rubbing the sleep out of my eyes and walking to my bedroom door, which I missed by about four feet, thus walking into my closet.
After saying a few choice words to some of my favorite Biblical characters, I untangled myself from the hangers and headed for the safety of the bathroom. Here is where the real trouble began.
Maybe some of you have had this similar experience: The bar of soap has disintegrated into a few slivers about the size of toothpicks. Having learned that conservation is essential to our survival as a species, you carefully rub these shards of soap across your body, hoping to catch everything.
Needless to say, about halfway down your left leg, the soap disappears completely and you're left with nothing but some sudsy water to complete the job.
I happened to be leaning halfway out of the shower, one hand reaching for the cabinet containing a fresh bar of soap, while the other gripped the light-weight plastic shower curtain as my feet desperately hoped to remain in contact with the little grip strips my landlord so lovingly installed in the shower stall to keep me from hurting myself.
So, I don't remember a whole lot about the fall, just that when I came to, the shower curtain had failed to support my weight and was now working as a funnel for the ice cold water spouting out of the shower nozzle.
Don't I have a paper due for lit class today?

My meditation was soon ended by a knocking sound at the front door. Still having trouble moving my body, I had just gotten into a kneeling position when the door opened.
"Maintenance," a cheerful voice echoed through my apartment as I quickly realized I had forgotten to bring a towel into the bathroom.
At about this point, most of you probably are wondering where the point is in all of this mess.
"Sure," you're saying to yourself, "we've got you in the bathroom, wrapped up in a plastic shower curtain and trying to explain the situation to a jovial maintenance man who probably doesn't have a full command of the English language, but how does this comment upon the problems of students at the University of Kansas?"
"Ahh, good point." I say.
I guess it seems to me that there are already too many "newsworthy," "timely" and "opinion-oriented" columns in the Kansan and not enough quotation marks. Maybe I'm just trying to justify my lack of interest in the happenings around campus and pawning them off to you as quirky little commentaries about everybody's lack of interest in campus activities.
Nah, that's too easy.
Why pretend any of this was written with a point when I've already forgotten what it is? This column contains no facts, no insights and really nothing of relevance to give you any reason to want to read it.
However, it does have mild violence, situations containing nudity and vague references to profanity.
I hope you have enjoyed my little diversion from the problems of the world, and you may now go back to the news part of this paper and read about politics, war and sports.

Fine Arts names finalists
By Chris Hopkins chopkins@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
The KU School of Fine Arts has narrowed down its list of dean candidates to a final four.
Stephen Anderson, professor of music and dance, Judith Thorpe, associate dean of the graduate program at the Tyler School of Art at Temple University, Randall Pembrook, a faculty member at the University of Missouri-Kansas City, and William Bucker, dean of fine arts at the University of Minnesota at Duluth, are the final candidates.
Current dean Peter Thompson said he would continue working at the University of Kansas teaching a drawing class in Spring 2000 after ending his tenure as dean at the end of this semester.
John Gaunt, dean of the school of architecture and head of the search committee, said there was
no clear front runner at this point.
"Each of them looks very good in terms of their credentials," he said.
Thorpe was interviewed last week by the selection committee, and Pembrook arrived on campus yesterday and will leave tomorrow.
Bucker also will interview this week and Anderson will interview in early May.
Pembrook said he had done everything he could to be prepared and said he would love to work at the University.
"KU just has a wonderful reputation in this part of the country," he said.
Pembrook said he did not have any set agenda if he gets the job other than improving the school's financial situation.
He said he would decide on an
agenda after speaking with the faculty.
"I think it needs to be a collaborative process." Pembrok said.
Anderson, who has worked at the University for 22 years, said he would put a forward spin on his administration.
"There are challenges in knowing exactly how we meet the future." he said.
Problems with funding, space, and faculty will have to be faced in the coming years, Anderson said.
The fine arts position is one of three dean positions in transition.
Pembrook, Bucker and Anderson all will have public question-and-answer sessions in Murphy Hall's Swarthout Recital Hall. Pembrook appears today, Bucker will appear tomorrow, and Anderson will appear on May 3.
The School of Law also is looking for a new dean, and a search committee has four finalists for the Dean of Libraries.
The candidates for the Dean of Libraries each will give a presentation in the next two weeks.

Starsky to open Day on the Hill
Continued from page 1A
at Day on the Hill, an event much bigger than the average night in a small-town coffee house in Kansas — a venue all too familiar to his band.
Before the votes were calculated, Bush was not hoping for much.
"I don't expect that we'll do too well," he said.
And although he was not perfectly pleased with the band's performance, the experience at Farmer's Ball was too-notch, he said.
"I've had more fun doing this in the last three days than I have ever had in my life," he said. "Nobody ever has heard of us before. Now our manager is telling me we've got some gigs lined up."
Grant Potential, Omaha, Neb., sophomore, plays guitar and sings in the Electron Volts and listened to the announcements backstage alone. Potential, who can shake his body and bang his head with the best of them, reacted in a typical mild-mannered way to the news that his band was a one of the two runners-up.
"I'm a pretty shy guy, but I love to play because it's great to get up there and start jumping around," he said. "This has been so much fun having people yell at us. but I wasn't really expecting to win."
Hanson said this was the first time Coach Mack had really emerged from its moldy basement. For the competition the band whipped up eight songs out of about 50 riffs it already had written.

As for the competition, Hanson did not think it came down to how many friends showed up to vote.
"I think it's fair," he said with a smile. "But it'd be more fair if nobody had friends."

KU student busted with fake license after losing wallet
By Kate Burford
kburford@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
A bad day is losing your wallet. A rotten day is losing your wallet, having it turned in to the police and having them find a fake driver's license inside.
This is what happen to one KU student, whose wallet was found by Potter Lake and turned in to the KU Public Safety Office on Tuesday, said Lt. Schuwil Bailey.
"While inventorying the contents of the wallet to find an owner, a falsely-manufactured driver's license was discovered," Bailey said.
Further investigation revealed that another student also was in possession of a fake driver's license. Police are investigating a third suspect who is thought to be responsible for manufacturing both of the false driver's licenses.
Both students were issued tickets and will be required to appear in court to face charges of unlawful use of a driver's license.
But if a wallet is lost, can a person really be said to be in possession of its contents?
"The short answer is yes, it does count as possession," said Cathleen Abell, assistant city prosecutor. "But it depends on circumstances of the case."
She said an important factor in prosecuting the case would be determining whether police had a valid reason for searching the wallet.
"And it would depend on whether the person was actually responsible for putting it there," she said.
"It had her picture on it and

The following are class B nonper son misdemeanors that carry a sentence of not less than 100 hours of public service and a fine of between $200 and $500:
Lending a driver's license to a person under the legal age for the purpose of consuming or buying alcohol.
Aiding another person in wrongly obtaining a driver's license or replacement driver's license.
Displaying or possessing any fictitious or fraudulently altered driver's license by any person under 21 years of age in order to purchase alcohol.
Possessing any fictitious or fraudulently altered driver's license is a class B nonperson misdemeanor, even if it is not being used to purchase alcohols.

her personal identification, with the exception of an incorrect date of birth," he said.
One student told police she paid $35 for the fake driver's license and the other student said she paid $100. Bailey said the investigation would continue to determine who the third party was that manufactured the false identification.
Sgt. George Wheeler of the Lawrence Police Department said it was not unheard of for police to charge people in connection with lost property.
"We'll see if there is a law on books that applies," he said.
"From time to time, we'll get guns that people turn in as found property. We've also gotten dope and paraphernalia such as bongs."

Museums celebrate Kansas City's history
Jazz, baseball exhibitions praise local achievements, contributions
By Matt Merkel-Hess Special to the Kansan
Two distinctive museums are only a bop, skip and jump away from Lawrence.
Lodged in one building, the Museums at 18th and Vine in Kansas City Mo., celebrate two American forms of entertainment jazz and base ball.
The jazz museum is colorful and funky inside, with pictures and artifacts tastefully displayed. Background jazz is present but not intrusive.
Opened in 1997, the museums focus on local contributions and national history.
Listening stations abound, intermingled with exhibits focusing on Louis Armstrong, Duke Ellington, Ella Fitzgerald and Kansas City's own Charlie Parker. These stations are excellent starting points to connect names with music. Visitors can look at all the reading and artifacts in the museum quickly, but the music remains the heart of the museum
Delores Austin, visiting the museum from Chickasha, Okla., said she enjoyed hearing the music she thought was missing in mainstream
"The music brings back memories. It's right up my alley," Austin said. She said she would return to the museum again so she could spend time listening to all the recordings.
music today.
The museum also has computers that flap through pictures of jazz records like a jukebox. Every song on the records can be played on headphones, and the computer will zoom in on the cover art at the click of a button.
Also on display are original instruments, filers, records and neon signs. A plastic saxophone played by Charlie Parker is featured prominently.
Dan Galley, associate professor of music and dance at the University of Kansas, visited the museum a year ago and said it had a lot about early swing and big band music but was lacking in some areas.
"There's a good overview of really important artists in jazz," Gailey said. "But it's light on Count Basie — arguably the most important figure to ever come of the Kansas City jazz scene."
Attached to the museum is the Blue Room, a club that presents jazz four nights a week and includes more jazz memorabilia. It is a comfortable place to sip on a drink and watch jazz — certainly a change of pace from any Lawrence hangout.
Gailey said some of his students have played the Blue Room, and it's got good acoustics for live jazz.
"It's the most valuable thing at the museum," Gailey said. "It's a viable

On the opposite side of the building, the Negro Leagues Baseball Museum covers the history of the Negro Leagues. These leagues were created in the 1860s and continued through the early 1960s, when full integration in the major leagues was achieved.
The exhibit follows a timeline of important events in African-American history and baseball, especially the history of the Kansas City Monarchs. The museums are the centerpiece of the renewal project in the 18th and Vine district. The Gem Theater and a few businesses have also been refurbished, but it is inside the museums where the area's history comes alive.

Golf complex leaves some obstacles behind
Twin Oak's Golf Complex offers more than miniature golf. The complex also has a nine-hole pitch and putt course and a 17-acre driving range. The complex is located at K-10 and Country Road 1057 and opens daily at 10 a.m. Photo by Magnus Andersson/KANSAN
Professionally designed course concentrates on short game
By Jeremy Johnson Special to the Kansan
Don't look for windmills, houses or volcanoes on the miniature golf course at Twin Oaks Golf Complex in Eudora.
The course was designed by PGA professionals and focuses on slope, length and undulation, rather than the obstacles typically associated with miniature golf.
Although the miniature golf course is challenging, those students wanting to ease their spring fever should play a few rounds.
The complex aims to satisfy anyone with a penchant for hitting golf balls. And guests can hit them just about any way they want. The complex touts a nine-hole pitch and putt golf course, an 18-hole miniature golf course and a 17-acre driving range.
Students should not worry about the golfing experience costing a fortune or taking a lot of time, though. Located at K-10 and County Road 1057, Twin Oaks is a five-minute drive east of
Lawrence, and everything at the complex can be done in 45 minutes or less. The good news for those on a tight budget is that all three golfing activities can be done together for under $15.
"It's really not expensive for what you get," Fred Bell, a Twin Oaks employee said.
Twin Oaks also offers golf lessons, new clubs and club fitting and repair.
After the opening in April 1998, the pitch and putt course is the newest addition to Twin Oaks. The course is short - only 600 total yards.
Other than that, it's just like regular golf.
"All the rules apply," said Gary Winters, head golf pro and general manager. "The only difference is the length of the golf course."
The holes range in distance from 50 to just under 90 yards. Each hole was designed to be reached in one shot, usually requiring less than a full swing. But Winters said that those types of shots were the most important part of a golfer's game. He said in a typical round of golf, shots that exceeded 100 yards were in the minority.
"The rest of the shots will be putts, chips, pitches, sand shots, trouble shots — all shots that are not full swings," Winters said. "So even though our course is short, it takes into account 70 percent of a person's golf game."

People can work on the other part of their game on the driving range. It has large grass tee areas and 25 artificial mats to hit from. Patrons can grip it and rip it or take aim at 10 different target flags set from 50 to 255 yards.
Ted Coulter, Winter's assistant and handyman, said the complex was a good place to relax. Those who come out, including students, often come back again and again.
"It's a great place for the college students to get together as a group and have fun," he said.

NATO considers sanctioning Serbs
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — In a summit-ending show of solidarity, NATO leaders promised military protection and economic aid to Yugoslavia's neighbors for standing with the West against Slobodan Milosev.
"If Mr. Milosevic threatens them for helping us, we will respond," President Clinton promised.
Before ending the three-day meeting with the allies in the military operation against the Serbs in Yugoslavia, Clinton telephoned Boris Yeltsin yesterday and urged the Russian leader to press Milosevic to accept a peaceful resolution to the crisis.
On the central issue of forcing Milosevic's forces to withdraw from Kosovo and allow hundreds of thousands of ethnic Albanian refugees back to their homes, Clinton said, "The alliance leaves Washington more united even than it was when we came here."
The 19 NATO leaders agreed in their 50th anniversary summit to move toward an oil embargo to hinder Miloosev despite Russian objections and French misgivings
about forcibly searching ships at sea.
Defense Secretary William Cohen said the allies agreed it was important to cut
allow the supply of fuel going to Yugoslavia's "war machine." He said the NATO leaders expected specific recommendations from their military officials shortly.
The NATO leaders agreed to intensify air attacks against Yugoslavia. But there was no agreement — and scant public discussion
of the possibility of introducing ground forces.
Yaltin: Spoke with Clinton about Milosevich yesterday.
But in Russia—one of NATO's nonmember "partners"—Prime Minister Yevgeny Primakov said, "We will have to pay more attention to defense" if a ground war is launched. He also suggested there would be a review of Russian relations with the NATO nations.
in one of their final acts, NATO's leaders sat down with the representatives of the "frontline states" — Yugoslavia's seven neighbors, all feeling the fallout from the combat in Kosovo — and promised to stand by them.
"The nations of the region have risked, and even faced, armed confrontation with Serbia by facilitating and supporting our campaign to end the bloodshed in Kosovo," Clinton said
Summing up the three-day meeting, NATO Secretary-General Javier Solana said,"The most important message that you are going to get from this summit is the determination of all the allies and all the partners to reverse the situation in Kosovo.
Clinton and Yeltsin talked for nearly an hour by phone. Russia has expressed outrage about NATO's airstrikes in Yugoslavia and has threatened to ignore a Western oil embargo. Yeltsin briefed Clinton on former Prime Minister Viktor Chernomyrdyn's mediation efforts in Belgrade, which NATO officials say have failed to produce results warranting a halt to the bombing.
Clinton believes Russia is very serious about trying to resolve the Kosovo crisis, National Security Adviser Sandy Berger said. Clinton urged Yeltsin to continue peacemaking efforts and said the two leaders would stay in touch. They did not discuss NATO's threatened blockade of oil shipments, officials said.
Berger said Russia would not be exempt from the embargo. "Obviously, any regime that we establish has to apply to everybody," Berger said on CNN's Late Edition. "I would expect that the Russians would comply."
The 19 allies met in a summit finale with leaders of two dozen other Central and Eastern European countries that have banded in partnership with the alliance. Russia stayed away.
Anxious about inflaming tensions with Moscow further, the allies said they were trying to avoid a confrontation at sea over blockading oil supplies to Serbia. The summit authorized NATO military commanders to draw up plans to inspect ships suspected of carrying oil to Milosevic. Russia and Libya are Yugoslavia's main oil suppliers.
Chavez campaigns for new constitution
The Associated Press
CARACAS. Venezuela — The centerpiece of President Hugo Chavez's agenda for a "social revolution" in Venezuela — his proposal for a new constitution — went before the people Sunday in a nationwide referendum.
Some 11 million Venezuelans were eligible to vote on whether to form an assembly to rewrite the constitution and whether to approve the terms Chavez has laid out for electing the assembly's members.
Chavez's opponents fear he will use a new constitution to install an authoritarian regime. But the president contends the change is needed to overhaul a corrupt political system that has impoverished most of Venezuela's people.
"It's about the country's challenge to bring legitimacy to the democratic process and to reclaim the essence of what a democracy should be, generating security and justice for the people," he said moments before casting his ballot amid a throng of admirers.
A former army paratrooper who staged a bloody coup attempt in 1992, Chavez has alarmed the political opposition by saying the proposed assembly also should dissolve Congress and the Supreme Court.
Accompanying Chavez to the polls Sunday were other leaders of his unsuccessful revolt, including Zulia state governor Francisco Arias and secret police chief Jesus Urdameta.
Many scholars say Venezuela's 1961 constitution could be reformed without a costly and time-consuming constituent assembly. The country has had 25 institutions since 1811, and some of Chavez's opponents believe adopting No. 26 will do little to address Venezuela's fundamental malaise.
But the proposed constitution has come to symbolize Chavez's vow to shake up a system that most Venezuelans believe has failed them.
"What I want is for him to put the corrupt in chains and justice for poor people," said Rosa Garcia, a 56-year-old grandmother in Caracas.

Critics fear that debilitating Venezuela's old power brokers will only lead to more power for Chavez, who has said that among other things, the proposed assembly should extend his term to up to 14 years. It was not clear if Chavez forces would control the assembly, which would be elected in July.
While taking his oath of office Feb. 2, Chavez stunned Venezuelans by labeling
Rachel Kesselman/KANSAL
the current constitution "moribund." He then called for the dissolution of the other two branches of government, threatened to declare a state of emergency and rule by decree, and instituted a plan to increase the role of the army in society.
"The whole world knows that, despite what the president says and thinks, his is a government with an undeniably totalitarian slant," wrote Luis Pinerau, the interior minister under former President Carlos Andres Perez, whom Chavez tried to overthrow seven years ago.
Chavez and the Supreme Court have been locked in a power struggle about his proposal to revamp the constitution. After the court ruled that the proposed assembly would not have the authority to dissolve Congress and the judiciary, Chavez called the ruling irrelevant.
Chavez's ascent to power is seen by many as a warning sign in a region that has failed to reduce poverty and corruption.
"It would be like me decreeing the sun won't rise in the morning," he said last week.
Columbine's tragedy elicits possible copycat school attacks
Districts ban trench coats, fear they could hide weapons
The Associated Press
Dozens of students around the country have been suspended and arrested since the Columbine High School massacre for making what were regarded as threats to carry out convict attacks.
Schools have been evacuated, locked down and closed as a result of the incidents, which have taken place in big cities and small towns alike since the attack in Littleton, Colo., on Tuesday.
"We have no tolerance whatsoever for threats," said Police Chief Thomas Bauer of Oak Creek, Wis., where two 16-year-old boys were arrested for allegedly threatening a study hall supervisor. One youth mentioned the Colorado shootings; the other one held his hand in the shape of a gun and yelled, "Pow!"
"If you say it, it's our intention that you apparently meant it, and you will be seeing the district attorney," Bauer said.
An 18-year-old student in Greenville, S.C., was put under house arrest and forbidden to go near his school Thursday after allegedly telling a teacher that he would "pull a Colorado on all of you." Police said he called the shootings the funniest thing he had ever heard of.
Three teen-agers in Cherry Hill, N.J., were suspended after witnesses said they wore black trench coats and pantomimed shooting guns and throwing bombs in a school hallway.
Trench coats like the ones worn by the two gunmen were banned in Denver and two other Colorado districts since the attack for fear they could be used to hide weapons. They also were banned at a high school in Fredericton, Canada, because they made some students uncomfortable.
Bennett Leventhal, a child psychologist at the University of Chicago, suggested that some schools were overreacting. He said that statistically, schools were extremely safe.
"Most schools are far better equipped with social workers, teachers, counselors, than the police," he said. "They don't need the police just because there was a shooting in Colorado this week."
Students who threaten violence should be taken seriously. Leventhal said.
Threatening letters, bombings linked to racial violence in Britain
The Associated Press
LONDON — Britain's ethnic minorities may be facing a wave of racially motivated violence, police said Sunday, a day after a neo-Nazi group claimed responsibility for a nail bomb that injured seven people. The bombing in an area of London heavily populated by immigrants was the second of two attacks in eight days that have injured a total of 46 people, prompting fears of a systematic campaign to terrorize minorities.
"We retain very serious fears that this could be a continuing series of vicious attacks," said David
A neo-Nazi organization, Combat 18, claimed responsibility for Saturday's afternoon explosion on a busy street in Brick Lane, home to a large Bangladeshi community. Authorities said the blast was caused by a nail bomb planted in a parked car.
Vaness of the Metropolitan police force. "We cannot in any way rule out the fact that those attacks might be taken to locations outside the London area."
The group was also among four self-styled, far-right organizations that claimed to have planted a nail bomb that exploded April 17, injuring 39 people in Brixton, a racially mixed south London neighborhood.
In addition, several black lawmakers reported receiving threatening letters signed by "White Wolves" — the same signature that appeared on a document detailing a bombing campaign that was faxed to a radio station a week before the Brixton attack, a newspaper reported.
London's Sunday Telegraph quoted the document as stating that all "non-white and Jews" still in Britain by the end of the year would be exterminated. The newspaper, quoting unidentified sources, said police dismissed the document as a prank.
Police Commissioner Sir Paul
Condon said the Brixton and Brick Lane attacks — both with crude nail bombs placed in large bags — appeared linked.
"Clearly, this is a racial crime," Condon said.
The victims from Saturday's bombing — all but one of them Bangladeshis — suffered slight injuries, police said.
Britain's state-funded Commission for Racial Equality said the bombings were an apparent reaction to an official inquiry into the bungled police investigation of the fatal stabbing of a black London teen-ager in 1993. The report, released in February, said the London police force
was riddled with racism.
Five white youths suspected of killing the teen-ager, Stephen Lawrence, have never been successfully prosecuted.
Commission chairman Claude Moreas told Britain's GMTV that far-right elements "don't like the idea of lifting the rock and seeing racism underneath. Those elements are creating a backlash."
Ethnic minorities, mostly descendants of immigrants from former colonies in Asia, Africa and the Caribbean, comprise only seven percent of Britain's population but are mostly concentrated in innercity districts.
One of the biggest Asian community newspapers in Britain also received a threatening letter from the so-called "White Wolves," its editor said Sunday.
Siddy Shivdasani said Eastern Eye received the letter the day before last week's Brixton bomb but the staff thought nothing of it because the paper is sent five or six racist letters every week.
"Then the following day the Brixton bomb happened and on the Monday we got a call saying we would be next," Shivdasani said. "We're convinced it's the same people behind both bombs who've also been threatening us."

KU professor sets high goals in and out of the classroom

A professor who knew he was considering pursuing a doctorate told Rodriguez that although he had done well, he should not attempt to always draw further. But he rose above these hurdles, go any way.

together to fight the challenge for him. He did not expect to be instructed into his teaching when asked about the fact that he entered into his teaching Rodriguez said that the biggest challenges facing him were those the students noticed.
"Closing the gap between those who have resources and those who don't, the gap between those who have access to technology and those who don't, the gap between teachers who have a passion for learning and teachers who don't and the gap between those who have a system for teaching and those who don't are the biggest obstacles," he said.

Fred Rodriguez, director for the Center for Teaching Excellence, runs about four miles a day. He said teaching and running both required practice and stamina.
A graduate of the University of Nebraska, Rodriguez began his career in education in 1971, taught at an elementary school in Ogallala, Neb. He worked as an educational consultant for the Nebraska State Department of Education and as an assistant professor at the University of Missouri, Columbia, before coming to KU in 1978. He has been an assistant professor in the department of curriculum and instruction and was made an associate professor in the department of teaching and leadership in 1984. He was named director of the center when it opened in 1997 and continues "each one course each semester."
Running is a form of therapy for him and has been a catalyst for many thoughts and ideas about his other passion - teaching
He said the two worlds, as different as they appeared, were quite similar. Both require stamina. Both require practice and a foundation on which to build. Both require goals for improvement.
Rodriguez has received several awards for his efforts to close those gaps. Among others, his honors include the W.T. Kemper Teaching Fellowship the Mortarboard Outstanding Educator Award, the Gene A. Budig Distinguished Teaching Professor and Who's who in American Education. Most recently, he was nominated to the board of the National Association for Multicultural Education. He said that of the awards, the most meaningful were selected by students.

Rodriguez is the director for the Center for Teaching Excellence and an associate professor of teaching and learning in the School of Education. In these roles, he has been setting and achieving goals for the achievement of education for more than 60 years.
Joe McComb a Lawrence graduate student who works at the wester, said Rodriguez had taught him a great deal about teaching in and outside the classroom. He's immensely well-prepared," he said. "About every workshop that I've ever worked on with him, every little detail is well thought out." Mary Rodriguez said that her husband was driven
A significant aspect of Rodriguez's career has been his dedication to equity in education and multicultural education. He has written 10 books, several journal articles and many other scholarly guides on these subjects. His work promotes the value that americans must strive to understand, appreciate and respect the diversity that exists in society and that these ideas must be integrated into school systems.
Mary Rodriguez said that her husband was affection by a professional enjoyment of working with people.
"I think, move than anything else," he really concerned about the student's learning," said Judy Eddy, program director for the center. "In all of the programs that we have, that's what everything leads back to. You can only affect so many students in your class. This gives him a venue to do more."

about Allen's fear of wet AstroTurf than anything else.
C
Allen limited the number of plays because of the potential for injury, and his offense was operating at only 15 percent of its capabilities, according to quarterback Zac Wegner. Despite these limitations, the offense still was able to score on its first drive and move the football.
After running back Mitch Bowles broke a 27-yard run around the left end to set the Blue team up on the two-yard line, Henri Childs carried the ball for the lone touchdown for the starters on the day.
Twenty-three plays later, reserve quarterback Jonas Weatherbie hooked up with wide receiver Byron Gasaway for a 57-yard touchdown to put the reserves on the scoreboard and tie the game.
Despite the lack of scoring, Allen stressed the positives of an otherwise uneventful showing.
"We didn't get anyone hurt, and other than that, we didn't do much else." Allen
19
said. "With the nature of this scrimmage, that's just about what you expect. The long and short of this one is that no one got hurt."
This fear led to severe limitations on runningback David Winbush (only one carry) and Wegner, who was out of the game after halftime. Still, Wegner was not happy about his performance, in which he threw one interception to Brandon Weir and had another near-interception dropped by Carl Shazor.
"This was maybe 15 percent of what we've been doing this spring as far as the offense goes. And the defense will take full advantage of that." Wegner said. "I definitely forced some things. Why not? In those situations, I would never think of throwing those balls in a game."
On the other side of the ball, linebacker Dariss Lomax was happy with his Blue team's defensive effort.
"Everybody played hard today and got to the ball," Lomax said. "We played the run better than any scrimmage this spring."
Still, Lomax said some mistakes were made defensively. Fourth-string running back Mike Lewis lit up the defense for 82 yards rushing, and Gasaway found a seam in the defense for the touchdown.
The Jayhawks have one more practice before the conclusion of spring drills. Heavy rains kept Kansas off the practice fields Thursday and Friday. But Allen is satisfied about the effort his team put forth this spring to date.
"A total evaluation on this spring is not completed yet, but I think we've had a very positive spring so far." Allen said. "We stayed away from injury, we've gotten better on the offensive line and we've gotten better in the linebackers and secondary."
The Jayhawks hold their final practice, in full-scrimimage form, at 3:20 p.m. tomorrow on the practice fields.

Softball team beats Texas, splits Aggie doubleheader
By Brandon Stinnett
Kansan sportswriter
Texas' Crysta Williams may lead the Big 12 Conference in almost every major pitching category this season, but it was the Kansas pitchers that shined Saturday.
Pitcher Melanie DeWinter got the win in the first game, allowing no runs on three hits in 4 1/3 innings of work. Sarah Workman came on in the fifth inning and got the save. Workman was the winning pitcher in the second game, giving up one run on six hits and striking out seven.
The Jayhawks softball team swept two games from 11th-ranked Texas, 1-0 and 2-1, in a doubleheader at Jayhawk Field.

"Sarah and Melanie both did a fabulous job for us (Saturday)," coach Tracy Bunge said. "We took
Shelly Musser was the hero for the Jayhawks offensively. The center fielder went 5 for 7 in the two games and was responsible for all three Kansas runs with three RBIs.
"What a day Shelly Musser had." Bunge said. "She was in one of those modes where the ball looked like it was the size of a watermelon."
Kansas scored the first game's only run in the third inning. Heather Sims got things going for the Jayhawks with a one-out single to center field. Second baseman Amy Hulse reached first base on a player's choice when Sims was thrown out at second. Hulse then stole two and scored on a single by Mussel.
In the fifth inning, the Longhorns threatened to score with runners
at first and third with one out when Workman came into pitch for the Jayhawks. Workman struck out the first two batters she faced to retire the side.
Texas got on the board first in game two. Third baseman Keely Franks singled in left fielder Tiffiny Valdehueza from second base in the top of the fifth inning.
The Jayhawks answered back with a run of their own in the bottom of the fifth. A two-out double by Musser scored Christy Musser from second base to tie the game, 1-1.
The score remained the same until the bottom of the seventh when Shelly Musser got her third hit of the game, a two-tail triple to deep center field that scored Hulse from first base and gave the jay-

Men's bowling team sees first national tourney
By Chris Wristen sports@kansan.com Kansan sportwriter
The team was led by seniors Scott Donner, Brian Schmidberger and Jeff Ussery who made their final appearance as jayhawks. To them it was worth all the work and a good way to end their careers.
The Kansas men's bowling team rolled into Wichita on Thursday to compete at the three-day national championships and brought home a ninth-place finish. West Texas State won the title. This was the Jayhawks' first trip to the national championships.
Not bad for a senior trin.
"This is my last year," Donner said.
"It's been four years and this is our first
to go to nationals, so this is a culmination, and reaching the high point of all these years."
"This meant a lot because we've got a very exceptional team." Fine said. "We've got seniors who have completed four years of paying the price and had hard practice. It was just very special to them."
Coach Michael Fine said he was happy for his seniors.
The tournament began with a qualifier double-elimination round on Thursday. At the conclusion of that round Kansas was in second place behind Nebraska. The Jayhawks knocked down 6,528 pins, which was almost a record performance
Other Kansas rollers were juniors Eric Topham and Tom Partridge, and freshman Mike Keeler.
for the national tournament.
The team went on to win its first-round game against West Texas State. The Jayhawks then played national runner-up Wichita State, where they met their match.
"In the 25 year history prior to this tournament, no team had ever averaged over 200 for every game of the Baker tournament." Fine said.
"We ran into Wichita State in the second round with the home crowd. They beat us in a very close match. It turned out to be the closest match of the tournament." Fine said.
The excitement around the match-up was immense and crowd support for both teams was evident.
"The crowd was crazy." Donner said. "It
was extremely loud. WSU had a lot of fans there, and we had a lot of fans there. The fans got into a rivalry of clapping back and forth."
Kansas rolled a 243 in its third round game with Cal-State Fullerton. That score was not enough to advance though, and the Javahaws were eliminated.
Even so, the team was not disappointed with its performance.
"We qualified higher than I expected us to so we met our expectations," Donner said.
The Jayhawks performance was good enough to earn the team a sponsor as well. Dexter shoes, one of the top bowling shoe companies in the industry, offered to sponsor the team next year.

Commentary
Elway fan remembers autograph experience
About an hour after suffering through a 42-20 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs at Arrowhead Stadium on the last Sunday of 1992, John Elway stood a foot in front of me.
The image is still clear in my mind. As his Denver-Broncos teammates walked past the throngs of fans with headphones on and heads down, Elway stopped for the crowd assembled around the team's four chartered buses to sign autographs and pose for pictures.
"Come on John, the bus is leaving," some guy wearing a Broncos jacket and mirrourd please said.
as he tugged Elway's sleeve.
PENNSYLVANIA
Even after I got my football card signed, I wouldn't move, wanting to cherish the moment shared with the most exciting
"I'll just get on the next one," Elway replied, as he continued to sign his name on the programs, pictures and hats being pushed his way.

player I've ever seen play football. As I watched him continue to scrawl his name, the memories rolled in my mind. The setting was usually the same, my parent's living room, as was the scene, Elway leading yet another fourth-quarter comeback against my dad's beloved Chiefs.
The crowd pushed closer, but still I stood.
I noticed how the crow's feet in the corners of his eyes would curl when a greedy fan asked him to sign three footballs. Elway signed all three, then said, "Only one each, so everybody's happy."
I noticed his muscled and weathered right hand, which had already had a long day bracing his body from the turf after the three sacks and numerous knockdowns from Chiefs linebacker Derrick Thomas. The hand, now marked with blue and black-permanent ink, kept signing. And signing. And signing.
Elway reportedly will retire this week, ending a brilliant 16-year career that has vaulted him into the greatest quarterbacks debate, along with Joe Montana, Dan Marino and Johnny Unitas. A strong case could be made for Elway. He passed for more yards than everyone but Marino. He started more Super Bowls (five) and led more fourth-quarter come-from-behind wins than any quarterback.
I'll miss watching him play. Chiefs fans won't
This is what I'll remember about John Elway — the guy who, even after a crushing loss to the Chiefs, still took the time to make a few people happy one Sunday afternoon.
Of all the victims of Elway's heroes, the Chiefs have often caught the brunt of the fourth-quarter storms. Elway has had 40 game-winning drives in the fourth quarter. Eight have happened against the Chiefs. Even the game Elway calls the worst of his career — when he threw five interceptions against the Chiefs on Dec. 14, 1985 — the Broncos won 14-13 after Elway led them to a touchdown with 22 seconds remaining.
Earlier this season, Elway worked his magic at Mile High Stadium against the Chiefs, throwing a touchdown pass to tight end Shannon Sharpe to secure a 35-31 win. Chiefs players have a hard time explaining Elway's ability to pull a victory out of the teeth of defeat. All they know is that they don't like facing it.
The card Elway autographed shows him smiling and holding his right arm up in celebration. It still hangs framed on the wall of my childhood bedroom, right above a Chiefs pennant. That will never change.

Penguins lead series without help of Jagr
PITTSBURGH, Penn. — The Pittsburgh Penguins supposedly had no chance to beat the New Jersey Devils even with Jaromir Jagr in the lineup. Instead, they're accomplishing something more improbable — beating them without him.
Note: Horoscopes have no basis in scientific fact and should be read for entertainment purposes only.
With Jagr again out with a groin injury, the Penguins relied on the intensity and emotion they lacked late in the season — and Martin Straka's three goals — to win 4-2
yesterday and grab the lead in the Eastern Conference quarterfinals
Straka and Alexei Kovalev scored 27 seconds apart in the opening minute of the third period to steer the eighth-seeded Penguins to a victory just as unlikely as Saturday's Jagrless 4-1 decision in the Meadowlands.
Straka also scored in the first period as the underdog Penguins took a 1-0 lead for the third straight game, then beat Rob Niedermayer down the ice to score into an empty net with 17 seconds remaining.
The top-seeded Devils now find themselves down 2-1 in a series that increasingly resembles their stunning first-round elimination by Ottawa last year. In 1997, the No. 1-seeded Devils were taken out by the Rangers in the second round.
Could history be repeating itself?
The Penguins also seem to be lifting a chapter from their own playoff history by replicating the steely determination that allowed them to upset the No. 1-seeded Rangers without an injured Mario Lemieux in 1992.
Jagr's status for Game 4 Tuesday is uncertain — the NHL scoring champion didn't even try to skate during warmups — but the urgency created by his absence actually may be benefiting the Penguins.
Coyotes 5-4 victory reaains series control
ST. LOUIS — The Phoenix Coyotes became the first team in months to make Grant Fuhr look his age.
The 36-old St. Louis Blues goaltender gave up three goals in the 8:31 and allowed four on 10 shots before taking a seat as the Coyotes
MUSIC NOTE
Louie DeBrusk, who didn't have a point in 15 regular-season games, scored two goals on two shots for the Coyotes, who will take a 2-1 series lead into Game 4 tomorrow night in St. Louis. Keith Tkachuk scored his first goal and point of the playoffs and Dallas Drake added his second goal and 4-0 at 2:35 of the second period.
of their first-round playoff series with
a 5-4 victory yesterday.
Shane Doan scored into an empty net with 50.8 seconds to go, which turned out to be a big goal after Blair Atcheynum connected for St. Louis with 14.5 seconds left.
Phoenix, scoreless in the first period of the first two games, took only 10 shots the last two periods as the Blues played catchup. The Coyotes were outshot 38-18 and needed a strong game in goal from Nikolai Khabibulin.
Pavol Demitra and Terry Yake scored power-play goals in a 12-second span late in the second period for the Blues. Geoff Courtnall made it three goals in three power plays when he deflected a drive by Al MacInnis at 5:51 of the third to cut the gap to 4-3.
Steve Yzerman scored his fifth goal in three playoff games to snap a tie with Detroit holding a two-man advantage in the second period. The Red Wings went on to beat Anaheim 4-2 yesterday and take a 3-0 lead in the best-of-seven series.
ANAHEIM, Calif. — The Detroit Red Wings, who swept Anaheim in the Mighty Ducks' only other year in the playoffs, are on the brink of doing it again.

back from a 2-1 deficit in the second period.
The two-time defending Stanley Cup champions swept Anaheim in four games in a second-round series two years ago, the Mighty Ducks' first time in the playoffs.
Yzerman scored the go-ahead goal with Travis Green in the penalty box for elbowing and Stu Grimson in the dressing room after getting a five-minute match penalty for checking Kris Draper into the glass from behind.
Yzerman got the puck behind the Ducks' net, skated to the right of the crease and jammed the puck past Guy Hebert on his own rebound for his seventh point of the series.
The Red Wings' Tomas Holmstrom had evended it 2-2 on a disputed goal 1:51 into the second period. Brendan Shanahan passed the puck to Holmstrom, parked just outside the crease, and the puck hit Holmstrom's skate and flinched into the air.
Holmstrom batted the fluttering puck over Herbert's left shoulder. The Mighty Ducks claimed Holmstrom's stick was above the crossbar, but after a review, the officials let the goal stand.
Vyacheslav Kozlov gave Detroit a two-goal lead when he knocked his own rebound past Hebert 1:54 into the third period.
The Red Wings again got off to a quick start. Just 1:43 into the game, Sergel Fedorov sailed a 30-foot slap shot past Hebert for his first goal of this year's playoffs and 38th of his career.
The Ducks, who crumbled after falling behind by three in the first period of a 5-1 loss in Game 2, this time fought back to move ahead 2-1 on power-play goals by Marty McNnis and Jason Marshall later in the first period.

Musser's bat offensive key to victories
Continued from page 1B
Javhawks a 2-1 victory
"Shelly was clutch for us today when we needed it," Bunge said. "I don't think I've seen that kind of power from her this season."
Musser said she picked the right day to have the best game of her season.
"This was the perfect day for me to do well in." Musser said, "It's a real confidence booster for me."
Texas' Williams, who pitched for the 1996 U.S. Olympic softball team, was credited for the loss in both games. Bunge said it was two huge wins for the Jayhawks.
"I am very excited," a teary-eyed Bunge said after the games. "I'm so emotional right now because I know the struggles this team has been through."
Kansas split a doubleheader with Texas A&M SUM,
1-0 and 4-7. Texas A&M pitcher Amy Vining held the
Jayhawks hitless for eight innings in the first
game, but Workman kept Kansas in the game by scattering six hits during nine innings and holding the Aggies scorelever.
The Jayhawks scored the game's only run in the bottom of the ninth. Kansas loaded the bases with no outs on three consecutive singles. Courtney Wright drove in Christy Musser on a sacrifice fly to right field.
Kansas gave up four runs on four hits and three errors in the first inning of the second game to give the Aggies an early 4-0 lead. Texas A&M added three more runs in the top of the seventh inning to go 7-0. The Jayhawks mounted a rally in the bottom of the seventh, scoring four runs on five hits, but the comeback bid fell short when freshman Leah Tabb fled out to center field to end the game.

Running back carries 82 yards in first game
By Michael Rigg

Kansas sportwriter
Mike Lewis knows the opportunities for him to shine are few and far between.
Before Saturday's spring game, the last game action Mike Lewis saw was his senior year of high school, in 1996.
As a freshman, he was a redshirt. Last spring, he blew out his knee and missed spring practice. Last fall, he didn't get into a single game.
Lewis admitted the inactivity made for some frustration.
"it's been a long two years." Lewis said. "All I could do is watch and learn."
Saturday, that learning paid off. The inactivity made Lewis quick to turn the spring game into his personal show, running for a game-high 82 yards on nine carries.
"I was ready to turn all that learning into doing," Lewis said after putting up an impressive 9.2 yards per carry on Saturday.
However, Lewis said he still had room for improvement, despite Saturday's effort
"I'm still a baby and learning how to play," Lewis said. "I just need to get better. I still feel confident."
This confidence is important for Lewis, Jayhawk coach Terry Allen said. Although the comparisons to better-known running backs will come after watching the spring game, Lewis' place with the Jayhawks is firm. Allen said.
"We don't have the second coming of Gale Sayers with Mike Lewis," Allen said. "He's

still fourth on the depth chart at the running back position."
"I just watch all the other backs play and learn from them." Lewis said.
All the improvement made by Lewis adds much-needed depth to the running back position. Allen said.
"You can never have to many running backs," Allen said. "Mike Lewis is a good back.
He's not on the level of a
He's not on the level of a Bowles, Winbush, or a Childs, but since we limited those guys this spring, we've had a lot of opportunities. To put him on the same level of the other guys is not realistic."

John Elway may pass on playing next year
After 16 seasons, the unparalleled master of the two-minute drill may be leaving football.
The Associated Press
Gradually, the Broncos became more than a showcase for one dazzling quarterback. But now, with certainty of Elway's retirement, the two-time Super Bowl champions enter uncharted terrain.
DENVER — For years, the Denver Broncos' offense consisted of John Elway and 10 other guys.
"For so many years, everything in my family has revolved around

Elway: May call it quits after 16 seasons.

"I've talked to him, and he told me what he's going to do," Broncos coach Mike Shanahan said. "But
Elway's announcement could come as early as today. But the Broncos probably will delay the announcement several more days because of the outpouring of grief about the killings. Funerals for several victims are scheduled for today.
on condition of anonymity, said he has told friends he is leaving the game.
Elway reportedly considered announcing his decision two weeks ago, but owner Pat Bowlen was in Australia promoting the Broncos' preseason game there. Then last week, the announcement was further delayed because of the school shootings in Littleton, Colo.
I'm not going to comment. I'm going to let John make his announcement."
Bowlen, while declining to confirm Elway's plans, said at a charity event Saturday night: "I've known this was coming for a long time."
Bowlen, who bought the Broncos in 1984, has never known the team without Elwav.
Running back Terrell Davis told the Denver Post: "This really lets some air out of your system. It's going to be tough to come back and not see him in the huddle."
"I think it's going to be odd for all of us," he said.
But Elway acknowledged several seasons ago that it wasn't his team anymore.
"It's Terrell's team now," he said.

Baseball team winds down season
Aggies sweep 'Hawks in three-game series
By Matt Tait
sports@kansan.com
Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas baseball team closed out its conference road schedule much the same way it began it — a three-game sweep in Texas.
While the Jayhawks' first road series saw them fall to the Texas Tech Red Raiders, this weekend's final road sweep came courtesy of the No. 3 Texas A&M Aggles.
Despite outhitting the Aggies in two of the series' three games, the Jayhawks could not manage to get key hits at opportune times.
In Sunday's finale, Kansas gave up eight runs in the first three innings. But the 'Hawks were competitive the rest of the way, before finally falling 12-3.
Kansas managed 14 hits in the game, including Chad King's 3-8.
for a performance, and catcher Shane Wedd, shortstop John Nelson, and centerfielder Harrison Hills had two hits each. But starter Rusty Philbrick lasted only 2/1 innings and gave up seven runs on just four hits.
Jeff Davis, Brian Schriner and Corey Harrington took the mound for the remaining six innings, but the damage had been done, and Kansas could not get back into it.
Saturday, however, was a much different story. In front of a live FOX TV audience, the Jayhaws played their best game of the series but were overmatched in the end, losing 10-5.
One bright spot for the Jayhawks was that senior pitcher Chris Williams logged his 67th career appearance and moved into a tie for fourth place in all-time Kansas appearances.
The 'Hawks again outhit the Aggies, 12-10, thanks largely in part to Wedd's 3-for-4 day.
Wedd got the scoring started in the second inning when he belted a home run to right center. The blast was Wedd's fourth of the year and gave the Jayhawks an early 1- lead. However, the Jayhawks could not hold down another powerful opponent.
"That was an interesting ballgame, where we oushit them, but we couldn't outscore them," Randall said. "We were just a couple of clutch hits away from making that thing close."
Trailing 4-1 going into the sixth, the 'Hawks pulled to within one, 4-3 but then fell victim to A&M's powerful lineup. The Aggies used a four-run seventh to put the game away and despite a valiant ninth-inning rally, the Jayhawks left the bases loaded.
"Texas A&M is a great hitting team," Randall said. "I'm still proud of a lot of things we did out there. We're playing better baseball."
Friday's opener was just the opposite of the last two, as starter Ryan Schmidt lasted six innings and pitched a solid game until he became fatigued, lost control and gave up two home runs.
"Ryan pitched a very good game until he lost his command in the fourth," Randall said. "Once that happened, they're a very good long-ball hitting team, and they opened up a home-run derby on us."
"There's no doubt in my mind that Casey Fossum is one of the pitchers in the nation. He threw a fantastic game tonight." Randall said.
Offensively, Kansas scraped together only five hits and never really threatened the Aggies. Aggies' pitcher Casey Fossum dominated the game, striking out 13 'Hawks in an 8-1 complete-game victory.
The losses dropped Kansas to 11-33 overall and 4-23 in Big 12 play. The 'Hawks will travel Tuesday to Wichita to face Kansas State, which does not count as conference game. The two teams will be back in action this weekend as conference foes for three games at Hoglund Ballpark. Tuesday's game will begin at 7 p.m.

Midfielder shines in end-of-season wins
By Chris Wristen
cwristen@ukans.edu
Kansas sportwriter
The Kansas women's soccer team wrapped up an undefeated season this weekend by notching two more victories, but the weekend belonged to the Jayhawk's Colleen Colvin.
Colvin scored six goals during the weekend as the Jayhawks downed Creighton 2-1 on the road Saturday and blew out Southwest Missouri State 9-8 on Sunday at home.
Colvin scored both goals in the first game and earned her other four in game two.
Colvin, a midfielder, received the praises of coach Mark Francis as well.
9 KANSAS
"The play was a lot faster. I just got a lot of lucky bounces off people and off the ground, and I just finished it off," she said.
"She's mostly played midfield for us, but out front is her best position. She's definitely got a nose for the goal. She plays with a lot of confidence," Francis said.
Because of bad weather the game was held in Anschutz
Kansas got off to a fast start by taking a 3-0 lead after the first period with goals by Meghann Haven, Melissa Downing off a pass from Lindsey Horner, and an open net breakaway goal by Colvin.

Sports Pavilion. The indoor battle had the teams playing eight on eight in three 30-minute periods.
Southwest Missouri State answered in the second period. Shannis Stock lofted an indirect kick past Kansas goalkeeper Betsy Pollard to cut the lead to 3-1. The Jayhawks responded two minutes later with a rocket to the upper right corner of the net from 24 yards away by Allie Heyworth.
Southwest Missouri State picked up two more goals in the third period but that was not nearly enough to counter the five that Kansas put away. Three goals by Colvin, a solo effort by Haven and a Kyle Watts header off a pass from Downing rounded out the scoring.
"Our shooting was really on. Our passing went well. We adjusted well to the conditions." Downing said. "We had a few minor defensive lapses, but I was real impressed with the way we played."
Francis was pleased with his team's play.
"I felt our spring schedule was pretty tough so I had no idea we'd do so well this quickly, but I think the
players have really responded very well to what we're trying to do, and they've worked extremely hard. I think that's paid off," Francis said.
Commentary
-Edited by Darrin Peschka
The Greats say good-bye, open door for new stars
Welcome to the next generation. First it was Michael Jordan's retirement, arguably the best basketball player in history — I'd take Bill Russell or Wilt Chamberlain, but that's a different column. Then came hockey's Great One, Wayne Gretzky, who dominated the game the way I used to dominate Tecmo Bowl.
Now John Elway — one of the top two or three quarterbacks of all-time reportedly will announce the end of his professional football career.
e most of us can
You can't help but wonder if baseball Iron Man Cal Ripken Jr. is for behind
Ever since remember, these athletes have been fixtures in their respective sports.
Elway as the blonde, cocky, super-talented quarterback who for years did everything but win a Super Bowl.
I
Jordan as the most recognized athlete in the world, the man who transcended sports with an engaging demeanor and spectacular game.
Sam Mellinger sports © kansan.com
And Gretzky as simply the Great One, the man who holds nearly every meaningful scoring record in hockey.
They're all gone, and with other legends like Ripken not far behind, the question is clear.
Now what?
This truly is a new age in sports as we know it. Not to sound like a bitter fuddy-duddy, but it ain't like it used to be.
We grew up in a golden age of sports. The NBA could have used the baggy shorts look a lot earlier, but the Lakers-Celtics rivalry of the '80s will never be duplicated.
The NFL has made giant strides in the last few years, but I would trade that for the chance to watch
Major League Baseball players who aren't bought and sold like trading cards and professional basketball players who actually care.
And don't even get me started about college basketball.
But bitterness about the current state of sports has to end with the realization that there's no better way to spend a weekend afternoon in the fall than watching football.
And there's no better place to spend a lazy summer evening than a ballbark.
It sure beats real life.
And can you think of a better way to put off February homework than watching Big Monday college basketball on ESPN?
So ball-hogging punk Allen Iverson's replacement of Michael Jordan as the NBA's leading scorer does not take away the pure enjoyment of the game.
The sports world will miss the class that Jordan, Gretzky and Elway brought. And it will miss other old-schoolers like Ripken, Karl Malone and Jerry Rice whenever they decide to quit.
The replacement of these greats with the likes of Ken Griffey Jr., Tim Duncan and Ricky Williams ensures that class did not retire when the Big Three stepped down.
One of the great things about sports is its natural ability to change with the times of society.
In the Beaver Cleaver days, basketball etiquette frowned upon dunks as disrespectful and unnecessary. Now, post-slam looks and words are commonplace to make the disrespect clear.
There's still nice guys — Sammy Sosa, Derrick Thomas and Mo Vaughn to name a few — to carry the torch.
Obviously, sports will live on and continue to provide us with the staples of our autumn afternoon and mid-March lives.
1999 will be remembered as the year of the retirement, and the beginning of the next generation.

Women's tennis honors senior
Senior tennis player Kris Sell (left) listens to coach Jenny Garrity between sets. Sell defeated Big 12 Conference champion Martina Nedorstova 6-4, 6-1, which helped propel the women's team to a 6-3 victory against Texas A&M yesterday at Alvamar Racquet Club. Photo by Graham K. Johnson/KANSAN
Kansas women's tennis coach Jenny Garrity choked backed tears as she tried to honor the team's lone senior and her younger sister Kris Sell before Sell's last home match.

"I'm really proud of her," Garrity said.
"She was a great representation of Kansas athletics. I was glad our parents were here, and everyone came out to support her. They were happy tears, not sad tears."
No. 27 Sell, 98-51 career singles and 63-34 career doubles, put together a fabulous performance in her final home match, defeating No. 39 Texas A&M's No. 66 Martin Nedorstova, winner of the Big 12 Conference title, in straight sets 6-4-1.
The crowd at Alvamar Racquet Club gave her a standing ovation as she left the court.
"A&M is the one team I wanted to play in my final match," Sell said. "They are kind
The No. 43 Jayhawks, 12-11 overall and 8-3 in conference, did not let Sell down as the team put together a 6-3 victory in its final regular season match.
of our biggest rival, and I wanted to beat them the most."
In No. 2 singles, Brooke Chiller was able to win a three-set match that lasted more than three hours. She defeated Lisa Ding-wall 6-3, 5-7, 6-1.
"They were awesome and inspiring," Garrity said. "They did an incredible job of just playing tennis. I've always said the hardest part of collegiate tennis is closing the matches, and we were able to do that today."
"I had a real tough match." Chiller said. "I did well just fighting through it. It's nice to play well and win. I'm exhausted though."
Chiller's doubles partner Julia Sidorova also played a long three-set match, losing to Kathryn Scott 6-7 (7), 6-0, 3-6.
However, the pair showed no sign of fatigue in its doubles match and cruised to
an 8-3 victory in No. 2 doubles against Scott and Monica San Miguel.
Saturday, the results were not as good as the team lost to No. 7 Texas B-1.
The only victory came for No. 3 singles player Cheryl Mallaiah.
However, the match was not a lop sided as the score indicated. Three of the singles losses went into three sets and in No. 1 doubles Sell and Mallaiah lost 9-8 with a 9-7 score in the tiebreaker.
"I was actually very pleased with our competition," Garrity said. "The matches that we couldn't close out yesterday, we closed out today. Texas has a very good team, and they proved that yesterday by making big points at the right time. We can't look past anyone in the Big 12, but we would love another opportunity to play Texas."
Men's tennis ends season beating Oklahoma State
The win yesterday earned Kansas a first round bye as one of the top four seeds in the Big 12 tournament in College Station, April 29-May 2.

By Melinda Weaver sports@kansan.com Kansan sportwriter
The Kansas men's tennis team ended its four-game losing streak Saturday with a 5-2 win against Oklahoma State to finish the regular season 11-7 overall and 3-5 in the conference.
Alex Barragan, Rodrgio Echagaray and Quentin Blakeney moved up one spot in the singles lineup with the absence of No.1 doubles and No.3 singles player Ed Dus, and Micah Zomer saw his first action this spring.
However, the team did not skip a beat.
At No. 3, Barragan defeated Marc Paulik 3-6, 6-4, 6-0. Echagaray defeated Jacques de Toit at No. 4 singles 6-4, 6-7 (5), 6-4. Zomer also put together a straight-set victory at No. 6 singles against Chris Preeger 6-2, 6-4.
Senior Kenny Powell was the team's other singles victory at No.2 singles, defeating Jeremy Ewford 6-1, 6-2.
"We played much better," Bar
KANSAS TENNIS
ragan said. "We played with more focus in all our matches. We didn't have all our forced errors, and we played more solid. The team is going to get much better if we work like we have in the last two weeks."
No. 40 Jayhawks won the doubles point for the first time in five matches.
Coach Mark Riley has tried several combinations all season, and he chose the right matchups Saturday.
Seniors Powell and No. 18 Luis Uribe defeated Rob Howarth and Jeremy Ewert 8-4 in No. 1 doubles and Barragan and Echagaray defeated Pregler and de Toit, who withdrew because of injury.
"The doubles has been a key point all season," Riley said. "When we preform well in doubles, we tend to perform well in singles."
Echagaray said the doubles
would be a key for the Jayhawks in the post season.
"We need to concentrate on doubles this week in practice because that is the key," Echagaray said. "If we win the doubles point, we have more chances to win. We can get the three other singles matches that we need to win."
In collegiate tennis, the team that wins two of the three doubles matches captures only one point toward the final score.
Saturday's win moved Kansas into the No. 6 seed in this weekend's Big 12 tournament. The team probably will play Texas A&M, a team that beat them 5-2 two weeks ago in the first round.
Riley said the victory against Oklahoma State gave the team more confidence heading into the tournament.
"We needed to win," Riley said.
"Now we will play Texas A&M on their home court, and we need to be ready to go. We have to play with more energy. We have to get it all together, or it will be a very short trip."

Two track stars take top honors for Jayhawks at Drake Relays
By Mike Miller
sports@kansan.com
Kansas sportwriter
Scott Russell won the javelin for the second straight year, Candy Mason won the pole vault and nine more athletes placed in the top ten for the men's and women's track teams at the Drake Relays in Des Moines, Iowa.
Russell's throw of 231-6 provisionally qualified him for the NCAA Championships in June. He became the sixth Jayhawk in Relays history to win an event multiple times. The two-time All-American also finished fifth in the hammer throw with a provisional qualifying toss of 197-4.
"Today was a good day for the 'Hawks. Having two champions at the Drake Relays is a really good deal," said coach Gary Schwartz.
"I was off technically. If I could have corrected a few things, I would've thrown a lot better," Russell said.
TRACK AND FIELD
Mason's vault of 12-5 1/4 placed her fifth overall. It was her first title at Drake.
"I finally got my watch. They give you a banner, medal and a watch for winning." she said.
The three-time All-American senior also placed seventh in the long jump with a mark of 18-73.4.
The men pole vaulters also jumped well, as Greg Steele vaulted 16-5 1/2, finishing fifth. Colby Miller finished ninth with a vault of 16-0 3/4. The Jayhawks now have three vaulters who have jumped 16 feet or higher on the season.
The women throwers were solid for the Jayhawks, as sophomore Marlea Woodman placed eighth in the discus with a mark of 152-7, and Andrea Bulat placed seventh in theavelin. throwing 137-5.
Lester Smith jumped 49-6-1/4, finishing sixth in the triple jump, while Ryan Speers placed ninth in the shot put with a mark of 54-8-1/4.
The Kansas relay teams had two teams finish in the to five.
The distance medley relay team of Charlie Gruber, Jabari Wamble, Doug Kleppler and Kevin McGinn ran its best time of the season, finishing third with a time of 9:44.64.
The 4x1,600-meter relay team of Craig Hettick, Gruber, Brian Blachly and McGinn finished fifth with a time of 17:06.95.
While half of the team traveled to Des Moines, the rest of the squad competed in the Missouri-Kansas City Invitational in Kansas City, Mo.
Eighteen top-ten finishes, eight top-five finishes and the first title of Shannon Agee's career highlighted a successful weekend.
Sherre-Khan Blackmon finished second in the 400-meter run.
Agee's vault of 10-11 1/2 was her second highest vault of the season.
On the men's side, Armond Enclare jumped a season-best 43-0
1/4 in the triple jump, finishing third, while Dorian Jordan jumped
22-13/4 in the long jump, finishing fifth
Justin Stancil vaulted 14-5 1/2,
finishing fourth in the pole vault
rounding out top-five finishers.

Top-rated golf course challenging for Big 12
by Brad Hatcher
sports@kansan.com
Kansan sportswriter
By Brad Hallier
HUTCHINSON — Kansas coach Ross Randall said that the Big 12 Conference could not find a more appropriate venue for it annual championships than Prairie Dunes Country Club.
"There is so much tradition here," Randall said of Prairie Dunes. "We just voted 12-0 this morning to keep it here, so I think that it will remain here at Prairie Dunes as long as the Big 12 is around."
Since opening in 1937, Prairie Dunes has been the backdrop for many prestigious tournaments, including the United States Golf Association Ladies' National Amateur and the Big 12 Championships.
Yesterday, the Jayhawks and the rest of the Big 12 played in a practice round that was delayed three hours by rain.
But today's forecast is supposed to improve. Randall said his team was ready to perform on the difficult, par-70 course, which has been rated as one of the top courses in the world for years. Golf Magazine, Golf Digest and Sports Illustrated have ranked many of the course's holes among the nation's best.
"This is the kind of course where
shooting par is a good score," he said. "Basically, I feel you get what you deserve on this course. You have to shoot smart, or this course will eat you up."
The Jayhawks have three players returning from last year's team that participated in the Big 12 Championships, including senior Chris Thompson, ranked 84th nationally, and juniors Ryan Vermeer and Brad Davis. Each player will play 36 holes, beginning at 8 a.m. today.
The Jayhawks, picked fifth in the coaches Big 12 poll and ranked 30th in the nation, are hoping to turn some heads at the championships. There are six teams ranked nationally in this year's championships, including sixth-ranked Kansas, Oklahoma State, which is the top-ranked team in the Big 12, eighth-ranked Texas, 15th-ranked Nebraska, 22nd-ranked Oklahoma and 43rd-ranked Baylor.
Junior Jake Istnick, ranked 96th in the nation, said the field would be tight at the year's end.
"I think there is seven teams that can shoot well, and there are two teams, Oklahoma State and Texas, that everyone wants to beat, so it will be a good tournament," he said.

THE STUDENT NEWSPAPER OF THE UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS
(USPS 650-640)

Letting go of the Dream
Every year,1,500 students apply to the University of Kansas School of Medicine but only about 200 are accepted. Those who are rejected must rethink their life goals.
by EZRA SYKES
illustration by JASON WJLLJAMS • photo by MAGNUS ANDERSSON
It was 9:30 that winter morning, way too early for the mail. Ryan Durley went to check anyway.
Pursley went to check any way. To his surprise, the letter had arrived. He pulled it out of his mailbox, confident it was The One. It was thick. It was heavy. That reassured him.
Pursley tore open the envelope. Fear crept up his throat as he failed to find a "congratulations." He skimmed the page and finally came to the number 52, a number that changed his life. It was clear now. He had failed.
"I set it down, sat back and was just kind of numb," Pursley said. Pursley was 52nd on the University.
Puwas was 52nd on the University of Kansas School of Medicine waiting list for Fall 1999. His dreams of attending medical school had been shattered. The med school usually only made it down to alternates No. 25 or 30.
Call it heartache or call it a reality check. When the rejection letter to medical school arrives, the interest on those years of emotional investment comes due.
Those who are accepted to med school will become what some call the last of the American heroes. Their futures hold money, prestige, and the
chance to hold human lives in their hands.
Those who are rejected are left to wonder along with their families and friends why the process seems so arbitrary. They are left to try to answer the question that nobody seems to be able to answer: Why not me?
That question struck Pursley hard after the news of his rejection set in.
The Letdown
Since Pursley's high school days, attending medical school was an integral part of his plan for life.
"When something like that happens, you want to know so badly why it happened," he said. "I was so sad that I had not succeeded in exactly what I'd been trying to do for so long."
For most, med school rejection is the first taste of real failure they have encountered. Out of the thousands who apply to med school, only about half will get in. But those who don't make it are still good students, students with GPAs that the average student would envy.
Hilary Heffey remembers going straight to her bedroom and bawling after receiving her rejection letter from KU medical school.
"I had gone through my whole life and never really had a hard time succeeding
in anything I'd done," she said. "I always thought that if I just worked hard I would be successful. The rejection letter said to me: 'Not necessarily.'"
Students applying to med school invest huge amounts of time, money and emotion in a process that begins as early as 6 or 7 years old, when they first dream of being doctors, said Sandra McCurdy, assistant dean of admissions for the University of Kansas School of Medicine.
From the two semesters of organic chemistry most premed students suffer through, to the application fees they must pay, to the hours they spend saturating themselves with admissions-test material, these students become slaves to their high aspirations.
The letdown when these aspirations are dashed is severe. Tears and depression are common.
City, KU officials debate joint bus system efforts
After absorbing the contents of his rejection letter, Pursley called his father in Wichita to tell him what had happened. It was Rick Pursley's day off from his recently remodeled veterinary clinic. There wasn't any ranting or raving, said Pursley, his father just tried to console him.
Pursley then called his girlfriend. She told him to look on the bright side.

Despite apparent support for a joint citywide bus system between the University of Kansas and the City of Lawrence, administrators and city officials are hesitant to establish a public transportation task force or endorse the bus system.
Although the new city commission
claimed to favor public transportation and students cast an overwhelming 3,714-340 vote to begin negotiations with the city, Tom Moore, outgoing Student Legislative Awareness Board campus director, said the outlook for the formation of a task force was not good.
He said the task force would allow for direct student input to the city but that the Lawrence City Commission would draft a baseline plan for public transportation with or without KU On Wheels.
Moore is in favor of having a task force for public transportation.
He said the task force would consist of city officials, administrators, students and other community members and would discuss issues such as costs and shared control of the system.
Moore said he would not abandon his attempts to secure support for a task force, which would be modeled after the alcohol task force.
Provost David Shulenburger said that he wasn't sure a task force would be the most productive option.
"I'm in favor of keeping the issue moving," he said. "But it's a complex issue. Sometimes a task force is not the most productive way to move."
Shulenburger said that the University would have to participate in discussions about public transportation because it would inevitably be involved either directly or indirectly, but he suggested that KU On Wheels representatives meet with the city commission and make clear their willingness to provide input.
Mike Wildden, city manager, said that he was not sure whether a task force would be the best option to examine public transportation. He said that he was
waiting for the city commission to tell him what it meant by "public transportation" before he would take any action.
"I don't know if another committee will help a lot," Wilden said. "I'm not super-excited about another big committee to try to figure out what public transportation is. I need my bosses to say, 'Here's what we want to work on.'"
Moore said that he planned to discuss the possibility of a task force with Chan-
celler Robert Hemenway soon. He said he was afraid that momentum would slow after he left office May 1.
"We're not asking the city manager to snap his fingers and have buses fall out of the sky," Moore said. "We just want to sit down and work on a system. We can't all go off in our own directions."
David Ambler, vice chancellor of student affairs, said that the alcohol task force was successful because the parties involved had mutual problems. But he said the
"The University should participate in a community-wide transportation study." Ambler said. "But I don't think the University as an institution can take part in the operation of a citywide transportation system because it's not within the University's mission."
Although individuals from the University should participate in the formation of a system, he said, the University did not possess the resources to control such a system, so the city should take primary responsibility.
issue of public transportation was more complicated because each party had different concerns and proposals.
Marty Kennedy, city commissioner,
said that a task force would help various
parties resolve differences about the
issue of public transportation. He said
that the majority, if not all, of the new
commissioners would be in favor of
forming a joint task force.
Ambler said that one option would be to retain the KU On Wheels system and allow students to take advantage of a separate, tandem city bus system.

Wearing faded jeans instead of a suit and carrying a backpack instead of a briefcase, Chancellor Robert Hemenway got a taste of student life yesterday in subjects that ranged from volleyball to modern art.
The chancellor traded places with Julie McGill, Elmhurst, Ill., sophomore, as part of a "Hemenway for a Day" fund-raiser for a sophomore honor society, Lambda Sigma.
He attended a Personal and Community Health class, Advanced Volleyball and Introduction to Modern Art, while McGill went to Hemenway's meetings.
As part of the morning's activities, Hemenway suited up in T-shirt and warmup pants for a session of bump, set, spike at Robinson Center.
I haven't played volleyball for 15 years," Hemenway said. "These guys are good."
Brooke Hightower, Wayne, Ill., senior, coached Hemenway briefly on technique in a warm-up period before the class began playing.
"He's actually a pretty good seter," she said. "He probably feels a little strange in a student environment where he has to participate instead of teaching the class."
After Hemenway finished with volleyball, he drove his car to Spencer Museum of Art on the other side of campus for Introduction to Modern Art — not because he's the chancellor, he said, but because McGill had told him that's what she did.
we u see it I get a ticket," he said.
But he didn't
Sam Watson, graduate teaching assistant of the art history class, said having the chancellor in his class was not unnerving for him.
In the art class, Hemenway diligently took notes for McGill during the lecture, which covered the
When he got to Spencer, he didn't have a quarter for the meter.
"I was strangely calm." Watson said. "People said it would freak me out, but it didn't."
color-block paintings of Mondrian and the efforts of the Dada movement to escape from the horrors of World War I.
Hemenway sat behind a student whose T-shirt bore the phrase, "Because without beer, things do not seem to go as well." He chatted with another student who was a fellow Nebraskan and with the instructor after class. He said he thought some students probably didn't know who he was.
"I don't know if they were thinking some strange old man came to sit in on the lecture," he said.
An English literature scholar, Hemenway said he was familiar with the literary aspects of the Dada movement but that he enjoyed learning more about how it influenced the art world and found it interesting.
He said what had most impressed him about the experience of going to a sophomore's classes was how broad students' range of learning was.
"When we get older, we tend to focus on our own world, our own job," Hemenway said. "But students are bombarded with information on everything from how to choose a health care organization to how to understand 20th century art."

County counselor reviews election complaints
Douglas County Counselor Winton Winter said he planned to finish investigations of two complaints filed by three students regarding the closed meetings of the Student Senate Elections Commission.
"The first step is to decide whether on face value what the complaints say allege a violation," Winter said. "Then there would be a factual investigation to see if the facts are in dispute, and if they are, decide what the facts are. Then we have to decide how to apply the facts to the law."
Winter said he thought he would be finished with the investigation by the middle of next week. If the elections commission is found in violation with Kansas law, Winter said he was not sure of the exact consequence, but it could involve a fine or a written warning.
J. D. Jenkins, Nunemaker senator, filed a complaint last week with the attorney general's office, and Ann Premer, editor of The University Daily Kansan, and Nadia Mustafa, Student Senate reporter for the Kansan, filed a separate complaint. The three students believe that the elections commission hearings should be open to the public.

Graduate actress wins national spot
Megan Dillingham, Overland Park graduate student, won the American College Theater Festival's Irene Ryan Scholarship in an acting competition at the Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C., this weekend.
Dillingham was one of two people
from an eight-state region selected to go to the national festival after a regional competition in Iowa last year.
Dillingham won the $2,500 scholarship for her performance of a five-minute monologue from Israel Horvitz's "Primary English Class." She also won the Classical Acting Award, given to participants who perform a scene written prior to 1900, for her reading of Shakespeare's "Henry V."
Paul Lim, associate professor of English, directed Dillingham in the play "Victim Art" last fall. Her role in that performance earned her a nomination for the regional competition.
"When her name was announced as the winner, people just cheered and jumped up and down," Lim said. "We're just so proud of her."

Student may be charged with computer trespass
An Academic Computing Services employee reported to police that a student was in a lab attempting to access restricted information between 8 and 8:30 a.m. March 1 at the Computer Services Facility, said Lt. Schuyler Bailey of the KU Public Safety Office.
The student was running a software program that would have allowed him to decipher Academic Computing Services' passwords, Bailey said.
After completing its investigation, the KU Public Safety Office forwarded a report to the Douglas County District Attorney's office, where it will be reviewed for possible charges, including computer trespass.

The student, who received an instant message through America Online at 4:30 p.m. Sunday, became alarmed when he made reference to last week's shooting at Columbine High School in Littleton, Colo., Wheeler said.
Police questioned the student, who said that he was just playing around and didn't intend to hurt anyone. No weapons were found at the student's residence, and he was not arrested.

Littleton suspects planned to kill 500, hijack plane
NATION
LITTLETON, Colo. — The two student suspects who carried out the attack at Columbine High dreamed of an even bigger bloodbath, plotting to kill hundreds of neighbors, then hijack a plane and crash it into New York City, investigators said yesterday.
A diary kept by Harris described his and Dylan Kleboid's plans for continuing their murderous rampage through the school's neighborhood, sheriff's spokesman Steve Davis said.
"They wanted to kill 500 people, hijack a plane and take it to New York City," Davis said. He speculated that they chose New York because of the high population density.
"Perhaps some major, major catastrophes were averted." Davis said.
stupios were avenged, Davis said. Davis said an 18-year-old woman, described as Klebold's girlfriend, had been questioned about whether she had bought two of the four guns Harris and Klebold used: a 9mm carbine rifle and a TEC-DC9 semiautomatic pistol.
Supreme Court to rule on FDA's policy shift
WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court stepped into a major dispute about smoking yesterday, agreeing to decide whether the Food and Drug Administration can regulate tobacco and crack down on cigarette sales to minors.
The Clinton administration and the tobacco industry will square off in verbal arguments this fall about the FDA's 1996 decision to start regulating tobacco. The government says the policy switch was justified by new evidence that the tobacco industry intended its products to feed consumers' nicotine habits.
A lower court threw out the rules, saying it was up to Congress — not the FDA — to make the major policy decision of how to regulate cigarettes and chewing tobacco.

School's antique printing press set to run again for history class
By Karen Lucas Special to the Kansan
A 19th-century printing press is about to begin a new chapter in its life.
The School of Journalism has offered its Washington hand press to the Spencer Research Library, where it will be used for the first time in nearly 30 years. The press has been on exhibit on the first floor of Stauffer-Flint Hall since the early '80s, and before then, at the museum in Printing Services on West Campus.
"It's a really neat piece of equipment," said Jimmy Gentry, dean of journalism. "It has been sitting there like a paperweight, and it has been vandalized. We thought it would be good to give it to someone who would take it and use it for the purpose for which it was intended."
Bill Crowe, vice chancellor for information services and dean of libraries, said he was pleased with the press offer.
"We can give it a safe home so it can see another day in teaching." he said.
Richard Clement, associate special collections librarian, said he was looking forward to using the press in his History of the Book course.
"The wonderful thing about this press is that it gives us the capacity to do things we've never done before," he said. "It allows us to do large format sheets. We're very excited about getting it."
Up until now, Clement's students have printed texts on the library's smaller presses.
printed texts on the library's smaller presses. Clement said that the press was missing a few pieces and that he hoped to have it operating by next spring.
The press has not been used since Thomas C. Ryther, professor emeritus of journalism, last taught printing lab classes in the late '60s.
Ferd Violand, who worked at the state printing plant in Topeka, gave the press to the school in 1952.
Crowe said he expected the press would be moved sometime after the spring semester.
The move will involve disassembling the press, which weighs approximately 2,000 pounds. Clement said.
"It comes apart into four or five pieces, which makes it fairly manageable," he said. "We'll have to be very careful to remember how to put it back together."
The area that the press currently occupies will become a lounge, Gentry said.

Student goes 'behind the scenes' as chancellor-for-a-day
By Jamie Knodel
jknodel@kanson.com
Kansas staff writer
Managing the University of Kansas takes a lot of time and planning, and one KU student realized firsthand what it takes to make this school run.
Yesterday, Julie McGill,
Elmhurst, Ill., sophomore, sat
in Chancellor Robert Hemenway's office and conducted business.
"Running the University is like running a big business," she said. "There's a lot that is involved."
McGill was the winner of the Lambda Sigma "Hemenway-for-a-day" raffle. Lambda Sigma is an honor society.
So, while McGill sat in on the Chancellor's meetings and appointments, Hemenway attended McGill's classes.
Throughout the morning
McGill met with University employees who work closely with the Chancellor, including Mary Burg, his executive assistant and Reggie Robinson, his special counsel.
McGill said that during the day she became familiar with several different issues, including campus construction, new legislation that would affect the way members of the Board of Regents were selected and commencement activities.
"It's really amazing how planned out the commencement activities have to be," she said. "From minute to minute, they know how everything is going to go."
topics that the chancellor deals with on a daily basis," he said.
Robinson said that the swap was a good opportunity for McGill to experience a day in Hemenway's shoes.
"This was a nice little window for her to see the range of
One of McGill's duties as the chancellor was to serve as the chairwoman for the Academic Administration Council. Her duties included calling the meeting to order, deciding who would speak and adiurning the meeting.
"Everyone was very receptive to me," she said. "They treated me like they treat the chancellor. They just had to lead me along more than they do him."
McGill said that she really enjoyed her day and that she was amazed at how much planning it takes to run the University.
"It's really overwhelming," she said. "It was a good opportunity to realize how much goes on behind the scenes and just how intricate everything is."
McGill said that meeting administrators and other University officials was a highlight of the day and that she respected all the effort that they took to keep the University running.
"The administration is on top of most of the issues that students have concerns about," she said.
At the end of the day, McGill was back to being a student. She and Hemenway discussed the day's events, and Hemenway gave McGill the notes from her lecture classes.
About $200 was raised from the raffle and all proceeds went to the Jubilee Cafe, a Lawrence soup kitchen, Ann Stueve, Lambda Sigma president, said.
"I'm really pleased with the way the event took place, and I hope it becomes an annual event." Stueve said.

The tragedy in Littleton, Colo., one week ago today has stirred talk about the sad state of our society. What kind of society has teenagers shooting classmates in cold blood?
Citizens of Littleton respond with compassion for students
Yes, this is the world we live in. But, looking closer at the massacre, there are some signs that maybe our society really has not completely turned into the cold, heartless thing that it appears to be in the aftermath of such a horrid event.
The community of Littleton did an amazing job of handling the events that took place.
Panic often can bring even more devastation in these situations, but the town ensured that this did not happen. Immediately after the shootings, students who fled the high school were welcomed into nearby homes. The local library and a nearby elementary school
The community's response to tragedy is commendable; support must not stop now.

Denver also handled the situation with grace. Professional athletic events were postponed, including a first-round basketball playoff. There were prayer vigils in Denver to help people cope with the tragedy.
The community came together to mourn and cope with its grief. The question left now is how the community will cope in the months and years to come.
The students who attended the high school will need support for a long time. Their lives are forever changed. How the community deals
with the students' pain and suffering will affect them forever.
Hopefully, the parents in the community will be even more attentive to their children now. If anything can be learned from this, it is that there are warning signs. Spotting these signs and dealing with their significance is something every family member, school administrator and community leader needs to do.
The community of Littleton did an admirable job of handling a very difficult situation.
We should all hope and pray that it continues to rise to the needs of its teen-agers as they take back the high schools days and memories of which they have been robbed.
Let's hope that if a tragedy like this struck Lawrence, our community would be as nurturing and supportive as the citizens of Littleton.

International group gets pat on back
The Kansan editorial board would like to commend the International Students Association. The board sends ISA a pat on the back for the success of its first International Awareness Week last week.
ISA president Vladimir Sinkov coordinated a treasure hunt and pizza party on Monday. This was followed Tuesday by a foreign film show in the Kansas Union, and Wednesday's international fashion show in front of the Kansas Union. There was an international potluck on Thursday, and Friday was the 47th annual Festival of
Awareness week activities provide means for students to learn about diversity.
Nations.
This week of events was co-organized by Suzy Davis and Laura Oldanie. Davis and Oldanie helped provide the campus with a wonderfully diverse look at what the international community has to offer. The University has a large and diverse student population,
and opportunities for interaction, such as International Awareness Week, can aid KU students in perceiving the large world outside of the United States.
There is no diversity requirement at the University. Language requirements are not spread to all departments. For these reasons, it is mostly the burden of the students to educate themselves in matters of foreign language and culture. The ISA works to make this task a little easier, and last week exemplified how many avenues truly exist for a student to receive an international perspective.

Peace in Israel hinges on binational status
Next month's election in Israel presents a good time to pause and reflect about new approaches to peace in this part of the world.
Duane Wagler
opinion @ kansan.com
Like Northern Ireland or the Balkans, talk of the situation in Israel and the occupied territories has caused many Americans to throw up their hands in frustration at the seemingly intractable mess.
But complexity is no excuse for inaction. Because we shovel more than $4 billion annually to Israel, it makes sense for us to urge that new and creative solutions
Perspective
be examined in the Palestinian-Israeli conflict. We may finally have one.
Edward Said, former member of the Palestine National Council and now professor of literature at Columbia University, writes in a Jan. 10 New York Times Magazine article that the only achievable way to peace in the region is to have Palestinians and Israelis living as equal citizens in one binational state. Making that a realistic option means changing the official narrative that has governed both peoples.
Said admits that both sides would need to compromise.
"The Zionist-Israeli official narrative and Palestinian ones are irreconcilable. Israelis say they waged a war of liberation and so achieved independence; Palestinians say their society was destroyed, most of the population evicted." he writes.
While taking a walk with my cousin one day, I noticed Israeli soldiers toting guns, overseeing several Palestinians sweeping rocks off the road. Palestinian youths apparently had tossed rocks at a military jeep as it drove by, and the Israelis had responded by telling the Palestinians in the general area to sweep rocks off the road. Finding this odd, I pulled out my camera.
would break my camera if I took a picture. I tried to ignore him but he kept close behind, repeating his threat. My cousin tried to argue that I could take a picture on a public road, but the arguments fell on deaf ears. The soldier kept shaking his head, muttering that he was following orders, and we left the area without a picture.
This description of the official narratives mirrors the sense I had when I visited the region in 1991. I went to visit a cousin who lived with and taught Palestinians in the Israeli-occupied West Bank. Next to the school where he taught was an Israeli army base.
I suspect the scene I happened onto was a microcosm of what has been going on in the 50 years since Israel became a nation. The Israelis understandably are worried about security, so they respond to every threat to security with repressive measures on the Palestinians, who respond with ineffectual rock-throwing, and the vicious cycle continues. Both Palestinians and Israelis are trapped in a narrative that does not allow for the existence of the other.
Said argues that both peoples should widen their scopes to take in more realistic views of history. For example, it is wrong-headed to streamline Palestine into one or the other's ethnic history. Although the Jewish and Palestinian presences have been longstanding, other citizens include Moabites and Caananites in ancient days, and Romans and Byzantines in modern times.
Said notes that "Palestine is multicultural, multiethnic, multireligious. There is as little historical justification for homogeneity as there is for notions of national or ethnic and religious purity today."
Before I could snap a picture, a soldier came up to me and warned me that he
Said also mentions that during the interwar period, a small but important group of Jewish thinkers such as Judah Magnes argued for a binational state. The impetus of Zionism obviously overwhelmed their efforts, but the idea is still alive today in Israel with people who are frustrated with the inadequacies of the peace talks today.
Said contends that "once the initial acknowledgment of the other as an equal is made," then pluralism takes on its own kind of logic.
We would do well to listen to and broadcast voices such as Said's. The Kosovo crisis serves as a strong warning against fixed ethnic narratives that breed centuries of hatred and antagonism. Said's words offer a thoughtful resolution in a place where thought and solutions have been lacking for far too long.

Ringing in 21st birthday entails more than drinks

importantly, I consider myself a good friend.
It's important to note that there are many more birthdays during the second semester than the first. Perhaps this has something to do with our parents being frisky in late spring. Nevertheless, this time of year, students experience the rite of passage signifying a transition similar to birth, prom, marriage or death — legality.
ALEXANDRA DAVIS
Turning 21 has a significant impact on every college student. It leaves us feeling Atlas sans world and in the mood to get as lit (boiled, hammered, etc.) as funds will allow.
No more fear that when lifting your glass, the Sperico wannabes of the Alcoholic Beverage Control will raid your favorite pub. No more waiting for your 21-year-old friends to get off their butts, turn off Friends and go to the liquor store for you. No more worries that the guy at the door may notice that you don't have blue eyes, bangs or weigh 190. Now, you can waltz right in and show him your real identification, all 15 forms that you've gotten used to hiding in the secret compartments of your wallet.
If you never had a fake, your 21st birthday will probably be spent rushing into every bar on Mass Street just to see what they look like inside.
If you don't drink, well, you can gamble now.
If vou don't drink or gamble, being 21
If you don't drink, gamble, or enjoy live music, think of this birthday as another year closer to that car-insurance reduction for 25-year-olds.
Women beware: I don't know why, but the 21st birthday signifies obscene sexual gifts. Personally, I commend the frank approach to such an unreasonably taboo topic, but just a little advice: If the present is buzzing, don't open it at the bar. You will suddenly become the victim or beneficiary of several pick-up lines and free drinks.
Also, when is a birthday gift more convenient? Most likely, you'll buy late enough, your slobbering friend will hardly be equipped to handle another, and, like the chain of command, you become the next commander of the drink. Or you'll buy a bottle of something or a case of something and get to drink half of it.
I encourage all 21-year-olds to pay special attention when their friends turn legal. This is a time reminiscent of getting your driver's license; the kids with summer birthdays always get left out for a few months. And those of you who flunked kindergarten a couple of times, take heed. It doesn't matter that you are 22, hanging out with a bunch of 19-year-olds. You're cool, but just because you know all the bartenders by name and have the drink specials of every night memorized doesn't mean that you're beyond screaming "free shots" for your younger buddies.
As a 21-year-old, I am obligated to assist in corruping my younger friends. They must get belligerent, sing at the bar, then stumble down Mass Street, murmuring, "I can't believe I'm 21."
If you don't drink, gamble, enjoy live music or drive you probably hate my columns and plot to one day make me pay for all my self-righteous banter by slowly and painfully tearing apart my life, piece by ever-loving piece.

City stays inside quarterly budget
Parking revenues, sales taxes go down
By Heather Woodward
hwoodward @kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
City offices and departments are coloring inside the lines of their budgets, according to a quarterly report that the Lawrence City Commission will review tonight
"It shows that different organizations are keeping in pace with their budgets," said Marty Kennedy, commissioner. "That keeps us in line, so we're not spending ahead of ourselves."
The report details the city's financial activities for the first three months of the year.
Sales taxes and public parking revenues both decreased this year compared with 1998. However, city officials said the lower revenue this year was not cause for alarm.
"January is always lower, that didn't surprise me at all," said Mike Wildgen, city manager. "But it is lower compared with other years as well. At this point, we don't know if it's a trend or whether it's just an anomaly."
The report said a decrease in Riverfront Mall and metered parking caused the lower parking revenue, down $26,000 from 1998.
After a May 4 goal-setting ses sion with the new commission city officials will begin establishing a budget for next year.
"The Riverfront Mall has been declining for some time," Wilden said. "They closed three stores down there at the first of this year. There are just fewer people going down there."
David Dunfield, commissioner, said the report acted as an informational gauge of estimated revenues and expenditures and could be used as an aid in planning next

issue in terms of the budget ramifications," Dunfield said. "Other than that I don't really have anything specific in mind."
Kennedy said the initial lower sales tax number acted as a reminder that the budget should not rely heavily on projected sales tax revenue.
"As a general rule, it seems that sales tax is very variable from year to year with no apparent reason." Kennedy said. "With each quarterly report, comes the realization that sales tax is a very volatile tax."
Wilden said planning the budget was a difficult process.
"We will look at this report in terms of revenue estimations, but it only represents one point in time," Wildgen said. "It helps with the base numbers to make estimates, but it's one of the biggest guessing games you'll ever go through."

ACLU debates elections code regulation
By Nadia Mustafa
nmustafa@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
The KU chapter of the American Civil Liberties Union is questioning the constitutionality of an elections code regulation that prohibits students from wearing campaign paraphernalia while voting in Student Senate elections.
Buddy Llovd, president of the KU chapter of ACLU, said that although he wanted to resolve his concerns without involving outside parties, he would take further action if necessary. He said he would soon meet with the elections commissioner to discuss the alleged constitutional violation.
The elections code states that there should be no campaigning within 100 feet of a polling site and that no campaign materials should be visible or audible from the sites. Poll workers are required to request that students remove campaign buttons and other paraphernalia before casting their votes.
Jennifer Watkins, elections commissioner, said that the rule was intended to prevent students from influencing one another's votes at the polling sites.
Patty Jaimes, Douglas County clerk, said that the county used similar reasoning when it implemented the rule that there should be no "electioneering," or campaigning, within 250 feet of a
polling site.
But, Lloyd said, in elections outside the University of Kansas, voters with campaign paraphernalia were allowed to vote and ticketed later with the opportunity to appeal.
In Student Senate elections this year, students who did not remove their buttons or other campaign materials were not allowed to vote.
"It's arbitrary decisions by untrained poll workers." Lloyd said. "It's a big issue because it involves constitutional violations."
Lloyd said that the regulation may violate the section of the Student Code of Rights and Responsibilities that permitted expression
Lloyd forwarded his complaint to the state ACLU chapter for legal consultation and advice. He said he had waited a week and half after elections to voice his concerns because he had to conduct research to determine whether he thought it really was a violation.
and discussion on campus of all views that didn't prevent the maintenance of order. In addition, he said, the Fifth Amendment afforded citizens the right to due process.
Lloyd said this was the first year he had noticed poll workers requesting students to remove campaign buttons. Previously, he said, they had not enforced the rule.

Missing out on medical school: Dealing with the heartache and disappointment of rejection
Continued from page 1A
"There was no bright side." Pursley said. "It's hard to understand what a person in that situation feels. No condolences seemed to help."
And that's not too difficult to understand.
The competition
The race to get into medical school follows no easy course, said Paul Crosby, premed adviser at the University of Kansas.
"When we have a deep need — whether physical or spiritual — we have such an appreciation for those who help us," she said. "We automatically feel that much respect is owed to that person."
McCurdy compared the physician's place in society to that of ministers and other spiritual figures.
During the years of preparation, premed students tell parents and friends about their aspirations. Ears perk up when family members hear of their boys' and girls' plans to enter such a prestigious field.
First of all, the race is packed. Thousands of students aspire to be doctors for a number of reasons, Crosby said. Some want to help. Some like science. Some are interested in health care. Others are looking for high income or the high status our culture awards physicians.
"Physicians, in some respects, are the last heroes we have," said Crosby, explaining the profession's popularity.
So it's hard to hide rejection when it comes.
So it's hard to hide rejection when it comes. "Parents and family carry a lot of pride in what their kids do," McCurdy said. "When they apply for medical school, an extra burden is shouldered that can compound the heartbreak of not being accepted."
Jaime Wendel is a senior at the University of Kansas studying microbiology. Although she still plans on attending medical school, after seeing her friends suffer through the application process, she decided that she didn't want to balance school and the application process during her senior year.
Although she's not completely sure what she'll do next year, she hopes to find a job and take a couple classes so her brain doesn't turn to mush.
"There is an extreme amount of pressure
Maintain a high GPA First chance to take the MCAT Volunteer at a local hospital Last chance to take the MCAT Interview with medical schools Aspire to become a doctor Organic chemistry Second chance to take the MCAT Apply to medical schools
you put on yourself and sometimes even from your family to get excellent grades in the hard prerequisite courses," she said. "I've seen friends spend their entire spring breaks and weekends studying for the MCAT Your dream
becomes so close that you do everything in your power to make sure that you don't screw up somewhere along the line. Anything less than an A on your grade card makes you wonder if you should rethink your future plans. Like any dream, it becomes your sole focus, and other aspects of your life don't seem to matter as much. It is entirely too easy to wear yourself thin both physically and mentally."
The med school application process only adds to the anxiety.
The grueling process
First, applicants must subscribe to an application service such as the American Medical College Application Service. Applicants send the service a computer disk full of biographical information, personal comments and a transcript including their MCAT scores. The Medical College Admission Test is a standardized test divided up into three sections: verbal reasoning, physical science and biological science. Each section is graded on a scale of 1 to 15. The average for the KU med school is in the low nines. A school like Harvard averages scores in the low eleve-
As for GPAS, a 3.4 is "OK," said Crosby, but improvement over time, the rigor of the undergraduate degree and near-graduation slumps are factored into admission decisions.
The application service verifies the information and then sends it to the schools that applicants wish to enter. Schools make a broad cut by deciding whether to interview the applicant. For most schools, the applicant must pay a fee just to apply.
McCurdy said that about 1,500 students applied to the KU School of Medicine every year and that about 375 of those were interviewed. Of those 375, about 210 to 225 are admitted. The class is eventually made up of 175 students after some choose other med
schools. Any shortfall is made up through the first 25 to 30 alternates on the waiting list.
For the interview, students schedule two conversations with either one or two physicians, clinical workers or senior med school students.
Each interviewer attends an orientation on how to put aside personal preferences, but some subjectivity is bound to creep in.
Weighing the interview
Adviser Crosby is critical of the process, or at least how the medical schools portray the interview.
"Interviews have more weight than they really deserve," he said. "I wonder if it wouldn't be better for the med schools to be more honest about it being arbitrary."
Although MCAT scores and grade point averages are the primary determiners on the road to getting into medical school, the interview plays an important role — especially for those in the middle range of grades and MCAT scores.
Crosby said that when med school applicants with decent scores weren't accepted, it was the interview that they often blamed.
McCurdy, who gets more than her fair share of telephone calls from disappointed med school applicants, said that students had some false notions about the interview process.
"Applicants think that when they're invited to interview, MCAT's and GPA's aren't a very big factor anymore," she said. "The interview can overshadow some things, but you shouldn't bank on that happening. They're looking for an applicant who is pretty much stellar across the board."
The doctors who interviewed him asked Pursley questions like what he thought the role of a doctor was, the characteristics he had that would make him a good doctor and where he saw himself in 10 years.
8
And with questions like that, it was difficult. Pursley said
A magic eight ball, dice and lottery tickets lay on adviser Paul Crosby's desk. He calls the collection a "shrine of uncertainty" and uses it to show students the role of chance involved in getting into medical school. Photo by Magnus Andersson/KANSAN
McCurdy admitted that the interviews couldn't be 100 percent objective.
"It's humans who are making the selections and making subjective decisions about other human beings." she said.
Although the interviews are scored on a numerical scale, McCurdy said the med school refused to provide students with their scores because different interviewers were likely to have their own interpretation of the scale.
"These premed students are so used to converting numbers into the meaning of life and that doesn't necessarily measure learning," she said.
Heffley said the interviews never produced complete pictures of med school candidates.
"It's just four people that decide in 30 minutes whether or not a person is good enough to enter medical school," she said. "What if the interviewers don't do a good job in representing you?"
Missing the cut, moving on
Paul Crosby's desk holds constant reminders of the pain of the med school application process. On his left, he keeps a box of tissues for premised students who cry during conferences. On his right, is a jumble of objects used to remind students that getting into medical school is never black or white. This "shrine of uncertainty," as he calls it, consists of losing lottery tickets, a giant eight ball and an assortment of dice.
"I don't know if anyone can be prepared."
"The way you get rated out seems subjective," Pursley said. "It seems odd that things you did such a long time ago matter so much. Also, I've always been envious of other majors that don't have as much pressure as far as numbers go. You have to get A's. Suc-
Pursley wasn't.
"I don't know if anyone can be prepared," Crowshy said.

cess is not judged on how much you learn, but how you rate out."
But Pursley doesn't want to come off as a whiner.
"I didn't go looking for media to complain to," he said. "I'm not real bitter at the process. I just wish it would have worked out in my favor."
Heffley feels the same. Although she received her rejection letter months ago, the disappointment still stilings in her mind.
Now she's looking for a summer job at a hospital or maybe a pharmacy.
"I'll be looking through the classifieds, and it will all sink in again," she said. "It's always there, in my mind."
Pursley will graduate this spring from Kansas State University but is undecided as to what the next year holds for him. He wants to work at a pharmacy or other health-related job and perhaps take a few classes while he waits to reapply to medical school.
As for his No. 52 place on the waiting list, he doesn't give it much regard.
"I'm not going to medical school," he said. "That's the bottom line. My place on the waiting list is not a consolation prize."

Roy Williams probably would have cringed at the sight of former All-American Paul Pierce taking snaps on the football field during the offseason. Though it is doubtful he ever would have needed to worry about it.
And Terry Allen's starting free safety Greg Erb hasn't worked on his batting stance for quite a while. But why would he need to?
The idea of Kansas athletes playing multiple sports isn't as prevalent as it once was in previous eras but was revisited with the passing of former two-sport Kansas athlete Ray Evans. The Kansas City native died at his suburban Kansas City home Saturday
night at the age of 76.
Evans' accomplishments as a Jay hawk are unprecedented. The only Kansas athlete to be named first team All-American in basketball and football and have his jersey retired in both sports. Evans led the nation in pass completions in 1942.
Evans' most impressive achievements may be on the gridiron, where he is still the school record holder with 17 interceptions. While not busy running, passing and catching the Jayhawks to one victory after another, he anchored the Kansas defense as a starting safety — something current safety Erb finds amazing.
"It would be real hard," Erb said of playing "ironman" football. "You've got to be a real special athlete to do something like that. High school is something different, but at the college
level. I can even imagine doing it.
Erb tried his hand at two sports in high school, spitting time between baseball and the football field before concentrating on football at Kansas.
"Unless you're a real special person, it's pretty much improbable these days with all of the time commitments for just one sport, let alone your studies and stuff like that. To be all of that in, is just impossible to do."
In Evans' time, there were fewer distractions, and sports were the main source of entertainment in his youth.
"Now kids have TV and all sorts of things to watch." Evans once said. "We didn't have that in our day. We just went to the school lot across the street. All the neighborhood kids would meet and that's all we did was

Changes in offense prove successful for Jayhawks

In a season full of changes, everything made a change for the better for the Kansas women's soccer team.
Beginning with the addition of coach Mark Francis and following with a newly discovered confidence and a high-powered offense, the Jayhawks adopted the look of a winning program.
"They've come a long way," Francis said. "The biggest thing is they're playing with a lot of confidence right now. They have confidence in what we're trying to do. They see the results of what we are doing on the practice field working in games on the field."
The result of their work was an undefeated season, something no one would have believed possible just a few months ago.
"Who'd have thought. We won five games in the fall, and we already surpassed that in the spring," said Melissa Downing, junior midfielder.
KRISY
"We're being more offensive than in the past. In the fall, they struggled to score goals. Now we're having success in that area," Francis said.
A major emphasis for the spring was placed on offense, an area in which the team struggled last fall. In the fall, the team notched 19 goals in 19 games. This spring the Jayhawks netted 18 goals in only seven games.
Francis said the undefeated season would give the team confidence next fall.
"I think it's a good stepping stone for us heading into the fall. The fall's when it really all counts," he said.
This success has given the team greater confidence, which the players attribute to their on-floor improvements.
"Our confidence level is a lot higher than it was last fall," junior midfielder Cynthia Dahle said. "We're creating a lot more opportunities, and we're being able to finish off those opportunities which is making our confidence go up."
Even though it is the players who have been making it happen, they look to their coach for the success.

"It's got to be the coaching." Downing said. "Seriously, Coach Francis is a magician. He's totally turned this program around. I'm so happy to be playing for him. He's what's made the difference."
The spring concluded with the team in high spirits and Francis feeling a little damp — the result of a post game drenching by his players.

Aycock, Dixon deserve to join Woodard on honored wall
This column is dedicated to Allen Quakenbush, who passed away during the weekend. For three years he hounded me and helped me in my work at The Topeka Capital-Journal.
But her jersey sits alone. A small dose of estrogen overwhelmed by testosterone.
Dangling from the Allen Fieldhouse rafters are the jerseys of seven great men, each honored as the greatest players in Kansas basketball history.
Among those men's jerseys is that of Lynette Woodard, the greatest woman to ever play college basketball.
It is time for Woodard's jersey to get company.
As good as those players
may be, they are not in the
No two player's since Danny Manning have deserved the honor more than Tamecka Dixon and Angela Avcock.

were, they were not in the same category as retires such as Danny Manning and Clive Lovellette.
She is the second player in team history, behind Woodard, to score more than 1,500 points and hand
In 1997 she was an All-American. The year before she was an honorable mention All-American. In 1966 and '97, she was the Big 12 Conference Player of the Year.
The Jayhawks made four NCAA tournament appearances with Dixon and won two conference titles. She finished her Kansas career with 1,689 points, fifth-best among Kansas women
And she took over games.
With less than five minutes to go in a game, Dixon would go on scoring rampages, slicing through defenses for fast layups or stopping short and hitting amazing jump shots.
With her team down by 15 points, I once watched Dixon score 12 points in the final minutes and single-handedly will her team to victory.
Dixon's greatness wasn't just her skills but her ability to lift a team at crucial moments.
Dixon just wrote a book and is a guard for the Los Angeles Sparks of the WNBA.
Aycock was as good, if not better, than Dixon. Aycock averaged only one point less her senior season than Danny Manning did his final year.
In 1985, her final season, Aycock was named a Kodak and Associated Press All-American. In 1993 she was an All-American honorable mention
She finished with 1,978 career points, third best in history.
Aycock was magic.
She could cut and fake better than anyone, and she had a powerful baseline drive.
Aycock played professionally in the now defunct ABL.
And it is no coincidence that Aycock and Dixon played two seasons together. Dixon has credited Aycock with teaching her important lessons.
Retiring jerseys is a serious matter. It is a prestigious honor reserved for the best.
There are schools that retire jerseys of athletes that were fan favorites but not truly great players. The Kansas Athletics Department has avoided that and bestowed the honor only on the deserving.
While Woodard is the best women's player to ever wear the crimson and blue, she is not the only Kansas women's basketball player deserving of the honor.
The Kansas women's team has been better than just Woodard, and it is time others get the honor they deserve: their jerseys hanging among the greatest Kansas has to offer.

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (April 27). This could be the year you find a perfect job that uses all your talents. Set your goals in May, and find out what's required. In August, relocate if necessary. In September and October, the work's going well. In November, you're forced to try something new, but it'll be just fine. Next February, you could get a big promotion.
To get the advantage, check the day's rating: 10 is the easiest day, 0
the most challenging.
Aries (March 21-April 19): Today is a 7.
Ames (March 21 2017). Today is a day
Heed advice from a person who can see a different
perspective than you can. It's always nice to have a
friend like that. It's important for you to listen to each
other, and learn.
Taurus (April 20-May 20): Today is a 5.
You're very talented, but do you have a business or a job that lets you be as creative as possible? If not, you should be looking for that. You're not only practical, you're also creative, but that's the side of yourself you might have repressed.
Gemini (May 21-June 21): Today is a 6.
You're lucky today and good looking. You'll probably get lots of good offers, and your biggest problem could be figuring out which ones to choose and which ones to save for later.
Cancer [June 22-July 22]; Today is a 5.
This would be an excellent day to fix up your house,
move the furniture around, do feng shui, get all the

colors tuned up. If you don't know quite how, ask a
friend who does.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Today is a 6.
This is a good day to learn communication. You probably know how to give orders, but you may not know how to take them. If your mate tells you to do something, do you go along with the suggestion? If not, you have communication barriers.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Today is a 7.
You're looking even better than usual, partially because the moon's in your sign. But the Taurus sun is forcing you to be practical, so think twice today about spending money you don't really have. You don't need all that stuff anyway.
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Today is a 5.
Beware of someone who's being a little too nice. This person is pleading to get you to do something you've been resisting. If it really works for you, do it. If it doesn't, don't.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Today is a 7.
The most important thing to remember today is structure. You need to stick with the rules — not easy for a Sagittarius. You'd rather do whatever you feel like. Today, it won't work. You don't want to undermine your own efforts, so play it by the book.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Today is a 5.
You know what needs to be done, and you're sure how to do it. There's a person in authority, however, who seems to be clueless. This person needs somebody to provide direction. If you don't already have a job, that's the perfect one for you.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Today is a 7.
You may notice yourself gazing out the window today, dreaming of distant places. You're stuck where you are for a while longer. Use your ability to plan ahead. You could make an outrageous vacation happen.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Today is a 5.

Golf team grabs lead in Big 12 meet
Victory would be first conference title since 1950
By Brad Hallier sports@kansan.com Kansan sportswriter
HUTCHINSON — Kansas men's golf coach Ross Randall said before the Big 12 Conference Championships began that he wanted the Jayhawks to be in a position to win the title after the first 36 holes.
After 36 holes, Kansas' position could hardly be better.
The Jayhawks shattered four tournament records, and they led the pack at the championships, which are played at Prairie Dunes Country Club. Kansas' score of 570 is two strokes better than Nebraska, which is in second. Oklahoma State, who holds 37 of the past 41 conference titles, is third with a score of 578.
The final 18 holes will be played today.
Randall said that he was pleased

"I think towards the end, they

started to get tired, but they still played well," he said.
The records that Kansas broke include lowest score for one round (284), a record that Nebraska tied yesterday; the lowest score after two rounds (570); the lowest first-round score (286); and the lowest second-round score, also tied by Nebraska (284).
The Jayhawks had some strong individual efforts yesterday, as well.
Senior Chris Thompson was the only player not to shoot over par, and his score of 139 tied him for the lead with junior teammate Ryan Vermeer.
Vermeer had an opportunity to tie the Big 12 Championship record for the lowest score in a single round, but his birdie putt on hole 18 during the first round missed.
Thompson said that it was one of the few times this season that Kansas had four quality scores.
I think we played pretty good," he said. "If we can keep that up, we have a good chance of winning. I don't think Kansas has won (a conference title) in a while."
It's been 49 years, to be precise.
It's been 49 years, to be precise. Thompson added that he would prefer that Kansas win the team crown rather than that he win the individual title.
Junior Brad Davis and sophomore Conrad Roberts both shot a two-round score of 146 and are currently tied for 16th place.
Roberts said that the course and the greens in particular was still wet from the previous day's rain.
"The ball wasn't going as far off the tees, so that made the course seem a little longer," he said. "But we all played consistent, and I am excited that we are winning."
The Jayhawks have finished second at the Big 12 Championship four times since Randall took over as coach. Randall said that a victory tomorrow would be everything that his team had ever worked for.
"There is another round to be played, and there will be a lot of pressure on us," he said. "But I think that's good. It can give us experience of playing under pressure when we get to regionals."

Evans' achievements rare in today's sports

A defensive position on the football field isn't the only thing Evans and Erb share.
Evans, who also led Wyandotte High School to the state football championship in 1940, split time on the baseball field. In fact, the New York Yankees once offered to pay his college tuition at Kansas if he would play for one of their minor league teams on the West Coast.
"It never quite panned out like that for me," Erb said with a laugh.
Erb is not the only one

One of Kansas' current two-sport star is Tywanne Aldridge. The Lawrence, junior transfer from Baker University splits his time between the football field as a cornerback and the Kansas track team. He runs the 100 and 400-meter dashes around Ray Evans Field inside Anschutz
Aldridge already has had to miss several spring football practices while running track.
"There's a few guys doing it like Ricky Williams at Texas and Champ Bailey at Georgia, but it takes so much time," Aldridge said. "I'd say what he (Evans) did is impossible today."
Evans was an All-American guard on Kansas' conference champion basketball teams in 1941-42 and 1942-43. He played on the struggling Jayhawk football team before his college career was interrupted by World War II. He returned from the U.S. Air Force for the 1946 and 1947 football seasons, finishing up his basketball eligibility in the spring of 1948.
"Ray was one of those rare individuals who comes along once in a century," said Otto Schnellbacher, a basketball and football teammate of Evans at Kansas. "Not only was he a great athlete, he was a great person with it. When things got tough, he was somehow right there on the front

Many of those great plays came against the rival Missouri Tigers. In the 1947 game in Lawrence, Evans made a gamesaving tackle late in the fourth quarter, and the Jayhawks won 20-14. The following year in Columbia, he ran for a 52-yard touchdown on the final play of the first half, and Kansas escaped with a 20-19 win.
The Kansas City Star touted the game as Ray Evans 20, Missouri 19. Of his 5-yard run, Evans said, "When you're scared, you run like hell."
Eric Chenowith, Kansas center, said he was impressed with Evan's dedication to two sports.
"He was a born athlete," said Chenowith, who can relate to the
Kansas-Missouri rivalry. "His dedication set a great example for Jayhawk teams of the future."
After one year playing offense and defense in the NFL for the Pittsburgh Steelers, Evans returned to Kansas City and became active in the community. He was part owner of the NBA's Kansas City Kings. He was also the first president of the Kansas City Chiefs Club and a founding member of the Royal Lancers, a group of Kansas City Royals boosters.
Evans was inducted into the National Football Foundation Hall of Fame in 1964 and the Orange Bowl Classic Hall of Fame in 1988.
His ties to the University continued for many years as he served as president of the University of Kansas Alumni Association.
He is survived by his wife, Edith Marie; one son, three daughters and eight grandchildren. Funeral services are scheduled for tomorrow in Fairway, Kan.

Improved pitching leads turnaround
Softball team gaining in Big 12
The Kansas softball team is on a hot streak.
The Jayhawks, who have won 11 of their last 14 games, moved from eighth to fifth in the Big 12 Conference this past weekend by sweeping Texas and splitting with Texas A&M in doubleheaders at Jayhawk Field. With the wins against Texas on Saturday, the Jayhawks moved over the .500 mark at 24-23 for the first time since March 19.
Kansas (25-24) will try to continue its hot streak against Creighton today in a doubleheader in Omaha, Neb. Coach Tracy Bunge said that beating Creighton would be a tough task.
"Creighton is kind of a scary team," Bunge said. "They are a lot like Southwest Missouri State. They always play Kansas tough."
The two games against Creighton will be the last before the Jayhawks play two crucial Big 12 doubleheaders this weekend against Nebraska and Iowa State.
Bunge said that she planned to use the games to get playing time for some of the players who haven't seen action in a while. On the top of that list will be junior Christy McPhail.
McPhail, who began the season as the team's starting shortstop, has seen her playing time diminish
With the recent suspension of sophomore pitcher Jessi Kowal, Bunge said she wanted to get McPhail some work at pitcher and planned to make her the starter in tonight's second game.
because of freshman Courtney Wright's increased productivity at the position.
Kansas' recent surge can be traced back to the second game of a doubleheader April 10 at Baylor. The Jayhawks had just lost the first game of the two-game set, 9-8. Kansas bounced back in the second game to claim a 4-3 victory and snap an eight-game losing streak.
The Jayhawks were 14-21 before the win at Baylor with a .229 team batting average and 98 runs on 202 hits. Since the win, the team is batting .277 with 55 runs and 90 hits. Despite the marked improvements on offensive production, Bunge said better pitching has made the most difference.
"I think it all starts with pitching," Bunge said. "Sarah (Workman) and Melanie (DeWinter) have been throwing the ball really well with confidence, and that's where it starts."
Bunge also gives credit to Wright for the team's success.
25
"Courtney Wright has been doing a great job for us defensively at shortstop," Bunge said. "As long as she keeps doing a good job, she'll be in there."
Wright, on the other hand, points to center fielder Shelly Musser as the key to the turn around.
"Shelly is one of the most outstanding players for us," Wright said.

"She's been really solid."
Bunge said probably the biggest difference since the Baylor game had been the team's confidence level.
she said. "Some of the kids said after the game, 'We shook it out, coach.' They're playing with a renewed sense of fun."
"We finally got over that hump."
Moon, Patton sign multiyear deals with Chiefs
—Edited by Darin Peschka
The Associated Press
But this time, they won't ask him to start.
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Once again, the Kansas City Chiefs are asking another team's backup quarterback to help them win.
Terms of the deal were not disclosed, but Peterson said Moon would be a backup to Elvis Grbac.
General manager Carl Peterson said veteran Warren Moon, released by Seattle in the off-season after losing his starting job to Jon Kitna, agreed Sunday to a two-year deal with the Chiefs.
told The Kansas City Star,"and he'll give us a lot of great veteran experience and leadership. I know Elvis is pleased about it, and more important, I'm pleased, and Gunther (coach Gunther Cunningham) is pleased."
"He understands that," Peterson
The 42-year-old Moon, a 15-year veteran with Houston, Minnesota and Seattle, started 10 of the first 11
"Playing with Jerry Rice, everybody wanted to play at that level," said Grbac, who came to Kansas City after playing behind Steve Young at San Francisco. "It makes everybody better."
Peterson did not say when Moon would sign.
games for Seattle last season. He threw for 1,632 yards, 11 touchdowns and eight interceptions in 1998
Gribac equated the chance to work with Moon to teaming with other Hall of Fame-quality players.
The team has also reached an agreement for a three-year contract with Redskins linebacker Marvus Patton, Peterson said. He was expected to sign yesterday in Kansas City.
Patton, who will be 32 on Saturday, was a member of Buffalo's four Super Bowl teams during 1990-93. He was the Redskins' leading tackler in three of his four seasons with Washington and has never missed an NFL game in nine seasons with
Buffalo and Washington.
Last season, the Redskins credited Patton with 134 unassisted tackles, 55 assists and three sacks. Other NFL statistics services show him with 115 unassisted tackles and 28 assists for a career-best 143 tackles.
The signing of Patton, Peterson said, eliminates the Chiefs' interest in re-signing outside linebacker Anthony Davis, who is still an unrestricted free agent.

"He turned our offer down. He said it was not enough." Peterson said. "He thought he was worth more out on the open market, so we wish him the very best."

Pentagon announces call to send reservists to Kosovo
The Associated Press
(USPS 650-640)
W CHITA - Airline pilots. Asssembly line teachers. School teachers. Construction workers. Engineers. Librarians.
For the 370 members of the U.S Air Force Reserve's 931st Air Refueling Group, the Defense Department call to duty in NATO's Kosovo operation meant an expectant wait for the phone call to tell them whether they are among the unit's 64 reservists selected to join the NATO air campaign.
The Pentagon announced yesterday that it will call 38,102 reservists to active duty. The call-up will begin immediately with 2,116 members of the Air Force Reserve and Air National Guard to assist in aerial refueling of NATO warplanes.
The call-up includes Kansas reservists based at McConnell Air Force Base in Wichita and others from units in Alabama, Arizona, California, Indiana, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. They will serve on active duty for as long as six months.
President Clinton said he expected Defense Secretary William Cohen to call up
additional reservists from all branches of the military to "fill critical support positions in our humanitarian and combat operations" in and around Yugoslavia.
"These reserves are essential to America's military strength. They are part of the total force we bring to bear whenever our men and women in uniform are called to action." Clinton said.
Once they are notified, the reservoirs will have 24 hours to arrange their family affairs, leave their civilian jobs and report to McConnell. The deployment to join the NATO air campaign could take days longer.
The earliest they could leave would be this weekend, but the 931st has not yet received its deployment order, said Col. Dean J. Despinoy, the unit's commander.
The 831st will activate one squadron—a total 16 crews—in this first involuntary call-up since NATO began its air campaign. The group is a KC-135 Stratotanker unit. About one-third of the missions flown from McConnell Air Force base use reservists, Despinoy said.
"We are constantly ready to go fight our battles. So therefore, it is expected and everyone that is a member of the organization is basically read for this. "DESPINoy said, 'It is disruptive of other lives, so we try
The Guard and Reserve together contain more than 50 percent of the Air Force's air-reliefing capability, Despinoy said.
"The real dedication ... for the rest of the folks that will be staying back here at the unit is to make sure that they are doing everything they can to support those families," he said.
— just as the president has tried — not to activate the Guard and Reserve indiscriminately."
The Kansas unit has 20 people serving on a volunteer basis, but those reservists will be called home before they are deployed again as part of this call-up. DESPINoy said
A crisis action team has been activated to help them.
The group is based in Wichita, but many of its members — particularly the pilots — live in other states, including Missouri, Texas, Illinois and Oklahoma. Most of the reservists serving as navigators or boom operators live in the Wichita area.
The focus of the 931st will now shift to the needs of the families that are deployed, Desminov said.

Posting policy gains new appeal process
By Nadia Mustafa
mnuftaaf@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
An appeals process will now be available to students who are fired for illegally posting materials on classroom bulletin boards, campus utility poles, walls, exterior doors, bus stop signs and newspaper distribution boxes.
Last week, Provost David Shulenburg formally added an appeals process as an accompaniment to his campus bulletin board policy, which calls for a $10 fine per illegal poster after a written warning.
Students or other individuals who think they didn't violate the policy will be able to submit a written appeal to the provost's office within two weeks of being fined. Shulen burger will then appoint an impartial panel to review the appeal and make a recommendation.
Brian Bartelt, member of Students Against The Recreation Center, was fined $110 last week for SARC signs posted on campus utility poles. He said that other members of SARC were responsible for the postings but that he did not know who they were.
Student organizations such as Student Union Activities had campaigned for changes to the policy earlier this semester, but nb action had been taken until last week.
Bartelt consulted the KU chapter of the American Civil Liberties Union after being fined. Buddy Lloyd, president of KU ACLU, set up an appointment with Shulenburger shortly before the provost
announced the addition of an appeals process.
Jeannette Johnson, assistant to the provost, said Shulenburger had met with students who thought they shouldn't have been fined even before the addition of an appeals process.
But Bartelt said he was still frustrated with the inconsistent manner in which the policy was enforced. He said that not all students received warnings before they were fined and that some groups' illegal postings were ignored.
Lloyd said the lack of a formal appeals process was a violation of due process rights. He said the addition was a result of ACLU's involvement.
Johnson said that the provost's office did not selectively implement the policy and that she had sent warnings to a diverse group of student organizations.
"This is a complete victory on all accounts," Lloyd said. "Once we got involved, we got action."
After meeting with Bartelt and Lloyd yesterday, Shulenburger dismissed Bartelt's fine.
She said 11 student organizations and more than 30 off-campus organizations had received warnings this semester. She said about 15 organizations were fined.
He said that he did not discuss those concerns with Shulenburger yesterday but that he would send him a letter.
"It's kind of weird that certain political groups are targeted," Bartelt said.

Higher education proposal advances
New plan to include faculty salary increase
Rv Katrina Hull
Special to the Kansan
If the financial aspects of the plan follow through, the University can expect to receive a significant increase in faculty salary funding in 2001.
TOPEKA - A House-Senate conference committee on higher education gave unanimous approval yesterday to a compromise that will restructure the Board of Regents on July 1.
"It's an acknowledgement and a promise to fix faculty salaries in 2001," Chancellor Bob Hemenway said. "We'll watch and hope that it will be fulfilled."
The state has been trying to change higher education for 25 years. Bill Docking, chairman of the
With the approval by
present board, said this was the best proposal he was aware of. "It's not perfect, but it's the best we are likely to see," he said.
With the upstart committee, the bill has been sent to the House and is planned for debate today as the legislature returns for a wrap-up session. If the House and Senate give their final approval to the conference committee's compromise, the bill will be sent to the governor.
Gov. Bill Graves said he approved of the restructuring plan, which would increase coordination in higher education by bringing all institutions under the supervision of the restructured board.
The new board will still consist of nine members, but three divisions will be created: one to govern the existing six Regents universities, another to govern community colleges and vocational technical schools, and the final to provide coordination among all state institutions of higher learning.
Along with the restructuring, the state would begin funding community colleges and municipally financed Washburn University through enrollment-based operating grants that would equal half of the cost to educate freshmen and sophomores at state universities.
Currently, community colleges and Washburn University are financed through local property taxes. The House-backed funding component will provide tax relief to counties that support community colleges.
"We would be asking the Regents to do what they would be doing anyway," he said.
Rep. Ralph Tanner, R-Baldwin City, said little change in the function of the Regents would occur.
Community colleges are now governed by the State Board of Education. Although supervision will be transferred to the new Board of Regents, community colleges and Washburn University will be allowed to keep their own boards of trustees.
Sen, Tim Emert, R-Independence, said the intent was to allow issues not involving credit hours to remain between the colleges and the community.
Under restructuring, performance objectives will be set separately by the schools and then approved by the board to avoid competition between schools.
The conference committee added a provision yesterday that would award schools that achieve their set objectives.
"We don't want the competition between each other," Tanner said. "We want them competing against themselves."
Emert said it would be the job of the new board to further clarify the intent of the legislation.
Sen. Barbara Lawrence, R-Wichita, said that the bill was not perfect and that she expected it to be revisited in the future.
"This is big step, and I do think the work and thought behind it have been extraordinary." Lawrence said. "To assume everything is going to be included in the first step is overly optimistic."

Baldwin City residents arrested near Haskell
Police arrested two people last night after they were observed walking in the road and appeared to be intoxicated about 2 a.m. at East 22d Street and Haskell Avenue, said Sgt. George Wheeler of the Lawrence Police department.
Police saw a group of three people walking down the street. One was a woman, who had her upper body exposed. Wheeler said.
One of the men, a Baldwin City resident, attempted to flee. Police thwarted his escape, but the man would not be subdued and police spraved him with pepper mace.
"He was hard to get because he was flailing and wet," the report said, according to Sgt. Wheeler. It did not say why the man was wet.
He also had a warrant out for his arrest.
The woman, also a Baldwin City resident, was detained on a possible charge of obstructing legal process.
KU student gets bitten by neighbor's rottweiler
A KU student reported that his neighbor's rotweiler bit him at 2:15 p.m. April 20 in the 1200 block of Ohio Street, said Sgt. George Wheeler of the Lawrence Police Department.
The student said the rottweiler, named Barron, lunged at him and bit his hand as he was reaching to pick up his own dog. Wheeler said.
Police arrest student for charges of OUI
The rottweiler was placed in quarantine at the owner's expense for 10 days, and the owner received a citation for dog at large.
A KU student was arrested and another was given a citation for possession of a false driver's license after a police officer observed a car swerve over the center line about 2:30 a.m. yesterday in 1000 block of Missouri Street, said Lt. Schuyler Bailey of the KU Public Safety Office.
After stopping the car, the officer asked the student for her driver's license. She handed him a Michigan driver's license, but he observed a Kansas driver's license in her wallet. He asked to see it and discovered that the Kansas driver's license had an incorrect birth date, Bailey said.
After failing a field sobriety test, the student was arrested for possibly operating a vehicle under the influence. When the officer asked the passenger for her identification, she also had a fake driver's license. She was given a ticket but was not arrested.

City commissioners grant seven contracts
Last night the Lawrence City Commission received bids for seven projects and, in a 4-0 vote, granted contracts at the recommendation of city staff to the lowest bidders who met city requirements.
"We're glad to see a lot of competition," City Manager Mike Wildgen said. "That means we have attractive projects for businesses."
City Commission
The commission awarded contracts to the following companies:
LRM Industries Inc. — $665,097.40
Instituform Plains — $237,800
Vermeer Sales and Service
Vermeer Sales and Service $180,000
J. F. McGivern — $48.704

$8,608
Wildgen said that most of the projects would be paid for with 10-year general operating bonds, but a few would be paid for with temporary two year bonds.
Utility Maintenance Contractors Inc. — $11,393
"We're pleased to see that our bonds are still receiving a high rating," Wildgen said.

Denver area falls silent 1 week after shootings
LITTLETON, Colo. — Exactly a week after the first shots rang out at Columbine High School, a hush fell over the Denver area yesterday and church bells toiled 15 times — one for each victim and the two gunmen.
It was the first public expression of mourning that included the two killers, whose names went unmentioned at Sunday's memorial attended by an estimated 70,000 people.
Televisions and radios fell silent for one minute at 11:21 a.m. After the tolling, the bells rang out in joyous tones.
Funerals for three more victims — Matthew Kechter and Kyle Velasquez, both 16, and Corey DePooter, 17 — were held. The Velasquez services drew 800 mourners, including Gov. Bill Owens.
"We did a celebratory palear to remind everybody that there is life after death," said Barry Bowman of St. John's Episcopal Cathedral in Denver.
Investigators, meanwhile, questioned Dylan Kleblen's 18-year-old girlfriend, who is thought to have bought at least two of the weapons used by
Klebold and Eric Harris.
Harris, 18, and Klebold, 17, committed suicide after bursting into Columnine High with guns and bombs on April 20.
New Airbus superjet would seat 550-650
WASHINGTON — It has been called a cruise ship in the sky, and with justification.
A new superjet being designed by Airbus Industrie, the world's second biggest aircraft maker, will boast features normally reserved for vessels that ply the high seas, not wing through the air.
Airbus hasn't signed off on building the plane — which would be the largest passenger jet in the sky — but yesterday a top company executive announced that 600 people are working on plans for the $10 billion project, and he sounded committed to seeing the plane built.
The A-3XK, which does not yet have a complete name, would have an upper deck running from its cockpit to its tail, allowing it to seat from 550 to 650 passengers. That's up to 200 more than the Boeing 747, now the largest commercial plane in the sky.
The two stories also would open up a range of possibilitie including the installation of a gym, shops and sleeping berths. Those amenities would be important distractions on the plane's target routes, long-range trips across the Pacific Ocean and throughout Asia.

Red Cross doctor visits captured U.S. soldiers
BELGRade, Yugoslavia — A Red Cross team, including a captive doctor, was allowed to visit three captive American soldiers yesterday, leaving with letters for their families.
The American soldiers, when seen on Serbian television after their March 31 capture in Macedonia's border area, had cuts and bruises on their faces. After yesterday's private meeting in Belgrade, officials of the International Committee of the Red Cross refused to discuss their conditions.
ICRC chief Cornelio Sommaruga said only that the men were examined by a physician and allowed to give letters to their families.
Sommaruga also saw the three briefly on Monday. The visit yesterday was the first "official" contact as provided for according to the Geneva conventions for prisoners of war.
The ICRC also conducted a second visit with a Yugoslav officer captured by Kosovo Albanian rebels and held at a U.S. military base in Mannheim, Germany.
Christopher J. Stone, 25; Andrew A. Ramirez, 24; and Steven M. Gonzales, 21; were seized in disputed circumstances along the Yugoslav-Macedonian border on March 31, seven days after NATO launched its bombing campaign.

Emily Taylor honored at program
Kansas Union, which honored outstanding women staff members, educators and students.

Holding a cane in each hand and wearing a corsage, Taylor received an award from the National Association of Student Personnel Administrators. David Ambler, vice chancellor for student affairs, handed her a crystal plaque.
"I thought he probably had this," Taylor joked, "but I thought he was just too lazy to bring it to me."
Later in the night, Taylor again ascended the stage to receive the Outstanding Pioneer Award, an award that recognized her historic contributions to humanity.
Taylor, for whom the Emily Taylor Resource Center is named, was dean of women 1956-1974.
"I thought the Pioneer woman had to be dead," she joked as she headed back to her seat.
Joan Brunfeldt, a physician, and Karen Gallagher, dean of education administration, were inducted into the KU Women's Hall of Fame.
"It's really wonderful to have the opportunity to recognize some outstanding women," said Kathy Rose-Mockry, current director of the Emily Taylor Women's Resource Center. "It's good to get their names out."
Barbara Ballard, assistant vice chancellor for student affairs, also received recognition for her 18 years of service as director of the Emily Taylor Women's Resource Center. Ballard ended her tenure as director in 1998.

Senate may review Haskell concern
Trafficway project topic of senator's proposed resolution
By Nadia Mustafa
nmustafa@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
A session of joint Student Senate might consider a resolution tonight supporting Haskell Indian Nation University's concerns about the completion of the South Lawrence Trafficway project.
Mark Bradshaw, fine arts senator and the resolution's author, will try to suspend Senate rules and regulations so that Senate
can consider the resolution, which was passed by the multicultural affairs committee last week. Joint Senate, at which new and old senators meet, is not allowed to consider legislation.
Many members of the Haskell community claim that the Environmental Impact Statement accompanying the South Lawrence Trafficway construction proposal is insufficient because it does not consider the project's environment and cultural impacts on the Haskell community. The trafficway would extend into the Haskell-Baker Wetlands.
The wetlands is a burial site for hundreds of former Haskell students who attended the university when it was a boarding school for indigenous children. The wetlands also is a sacred site for the Haskell community, which is used for religious and spiritual observances and activities such as sweat-lodge and medicine-wheel ceremonies.
Bradshaw said the University of Kansas should be concerned about Haskell because many KU students concurrently attend Haskell and because many have previously been Haskell students.
"In many ways, we are a single learning community," he said. "It's important that we don't separate ourselves and think it's not our concern. We're not taking a stance but just supporting the Haskell community and its Student Senate in getting its concerns heard," he said.
Included on Senate's regular agenda is old Senate's vote for holdover senators, officer reports from student body president-elect and vice president-elect, and new Senate's appointment of Senate executive staff members, University Council representatives, Faculty Senate representatives, committee board members and a joint Student Union Activities-Student Senate Lecture Series chairperson, said Dede Seibel, student body vice president-elect.
The new Senate will take over at the meeting, which will be at 6:30 p.m. in the Kansas Union Ballroom.

Construction set for scholarship hall
By Jamie Knodel
jknodel@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Female students at the University of Kansas will have a new on-campus housing option by the Fall 2000 semester.
Officials said that construction of a new scholarship hall, which is a sister building to Amira Scholarship Hall, will begin this July.
"Everything is right on schedule," said Ken Stoner, director of department of student housing.
He also said that bid requests would be sent out to contractors within the next few weeks.
pleted when Amini was built in 1992.
The project began in 1991 when designers created a plan for two University scholarship halls. The first phase of that project was completed when Amiini was built in 1992. The two halls will have similar layout, design and architectural elements.
A $1.5 million donation from KU alumni Margaret and K.K. Amin will fund the new student residence.
Margaret Amiini said they were motivated to donate the money to help balance the differences in scholarship hall opportunities for both sexes.
"Female people should have the same opportunities that male people at the University have," she said.
Although a name for the new scholarship hall has not been chosen, several ideas have been circulating.
"People are just calling it Amiini 2, but I doubt that will be the official name," Stoner said.
The Aminis, who also donated $1 million for the construction of the original Amini Hall, said that choosing a name for the new hall was not easy.
"We've been kicking a few ideas around and picking some brains to come up with the most appropriate name," Margaret Amini said.
Residents of other scholarship halls said the addition of a hall for women made sense because there were already more scholarship halls for male residents.
"Scholarship hall living is very popular with residents who live in that setting," said Anne Wallen, Douthart resident and Lindsborg freshman. "I don't think there will be any problem finding people to live there."

Bill against flag burning tramples cherished value of political speech
a bill in front of the House Judiciary Committee would start the process to enact a constitutional amendment allowing Congress to make the burning of the U.S. flag illegal. This amendment never should become law.
The amendment is supported by veterans groups and already has 275 co-sponsors in the House. Proponents of this amendment claim that burning the flag is a slap in the face for the millions of men who have fought and died for our nation. The proponents claim that burning the flag is a great disrespect to our nation. They are right about both claims.
However, it is a much greater insult to all of our servicemen to legislate away the freedom they fought and
The proposed amendment has support in Congress,but it is oppression.
died to preserve.
These men fought for freedom, including the freedom for citizens to say that they hate the United States. It is the diversity of opinion that makes our country great.
public
Prohibitions about flag burning have no place in U.S. society. They are fit for repressive regimes such as China and Iraq. Our nation is strong enough that it can tolerate dissent being freely expressed. It is strong, in part, because it allows this dissent to be expressed and discussed by the
Our founders meant the First Amendment to ensure freedom of speech, especially political speech. Burning the flag is a political statement, and it is exactly the kind of distasteful and unpopular speech that needs protection the most. If we want to have the right to free expression then we also must be ready to accept that some people will express things we don't agree with.
Students should realize that it is this diverse mixture of opinions that allow us to carry on a vibrant dialogue among people who hold different opinions. Students should contact their legislators and tell them to defeat this amendment before it becomes law.

Adult life demands economic savvy
A recent survey by the National Council on Economic Education revealed that American adults lack a basic understanding of economics.
On a test administered to 1,010 adults and 1,085 high school students, adults scored an average of 57 percent while students scored an average of 48 percent. Almost two-thirds of adults did not understand that inflation causes money to lose value. Only 37 percent of adults understood that society must make choices about how to use limited resources.
Nationally, only 13 states require students to take an economics course to graduate high school. Kansas has no economics requirement and does not even require high schools to offer an economics or personal finance class.
A recent survey shows that adults lack basic knowledge about economics.
Students who had been required to take an economics class scored much better than students who had not.
A basic understanding of economic principles is essential.
Without that understanding, citizens will be more likely to make foolish decisions about personal finances. It is important that consumers understand how credit, inflation and interest affect them.
nation that scores an "F" in economies would have problems. Our large national debt, a Social Security system that has been compared to a Ponzi scheme, and leaders who claim we are running a surplus when our government actually is digging deeper into debt every year - all occur because of poor economic choices.
Equally important is the fact that uninformed voters make poor political decisions. It is not surprising that a
Local school boards should implement an economics requirement immediately. It is a national embarrassment that only 6 percent of Americans could score an "A" on this simple test.
Students should test their economics knowledge at the council's Web site, www.nationalcouncil.org, and encourage their local school board to adopt an economics requirement for graduation.

Kosovo conflict ignored by University students
PETER JONES
Michael
Hadjithomas
Guest columnist
versities are the nests of the elite of American youth and a lair for activists.
Since classes resumed, there has been nothing in that direction. Well, almost nothing — there was one guest column in The University Daily Kansan. Ironically, it acknowledged the ignorance of KU students about the Kosovo war.
My expectations were that, once back on campus, there would be more activity about the war because uni-
Because this is a operation led by the United States, American college students could influence the continuation of this war. By learning about the situation and being active, students can send messages to the leadership of this country.
My hope is that these messages will lead to an end of the war and allow for talks to resume. This war shouldn't even have started for several reasons:
■ Yugoslavia is a sovereign country. Neither the United States nor any country has the right by international law to intervene in a domestic conflict of a sovereign country.
NATO's purpose is purely defensive. But it is engaging in aggression toward a country that has not presented a threat against a NATO member.
The Yugoslav army was fighting the Kosovo Liberation Army, which seeks independence for Kosovo. A few months back, the U.S. government categorized the KLA as a terrorist group. Yugoslavia was merely protecting its sovereignty the same way the U.S. government would if New Mexico decided to unite with Mexico.
The "humanitarian" government of President Clinton does not react the same way in the case of the millions of Kurds who are being oppressed and cleansed by the Turks. Almost 3,000 Kurdish
villages have been destroyed, creating hundreds of thousand of refugees. (Turkey of course, is a member of NATO.) The same government didn't do anything to prevent the massacres in Rwanda, as it didn't seem to care about Africans.
■ President Clinton said one of the reasons for the intervention was to stabilize the region. What is not understandable, though, is how attacking a sovereign country creates stability. This "wise" and "insightful" decision has backfired. After the war began in Kosovo, at least 500,000 refugees poured into neighboring countries and regions — Albania, former Yugoslavic Republic of Macedonia and Montenegro—destabilizing them.
Another of the objectives was to loosen President Milosevic's grip on the Yugoslav people and possibly even remove him from power. Milosevic never was as popular as he is now, almost a month after Operation Allied Force commenced.
Milosevic should have been removed by other means that wouldn't have caused this suffering and instability in the Balkans.
President Milosevic and the Serbs never will let Kosovo become an Albanian province because Kosovo is of extreme importance to the Serbs, both culturally and religiously. No matter how hard NATO hits them by air, they will keep waiting patiently until they get their chance to fight a ground war for their country. Then we will see more suffering in the region.
It is evident that this intervention has done more bad than good, creating more refugees and causing more lateral damage and casualties day by day. What is more disturbing is that neither of the sides seems to be willing to withdraw.
By withdrawing without achieving its goals, the United States and other NATO countries will be humiliated.
What is sad about this whole story is the amount of innocent victims — Serbians, Albanians or whatever "ethnic tag" each one carries in this multi-ethnic region.
There are bad elements in NATO's side as well. NATO was anxious to find a reason for existence since, when the USSR collapsed, the organization had no real enemy to defend against. This anxiety led them in a foolish war that will have no real winner and already has plenty of losers.
What one can only hope for is for reason, prudence and willingness for peace to prevail. Then, and only then, we might see a decrease in human suffering in the Balkan area.

Wondering allows soul to marvel at vivid world
have not wondered lately.
Perryman
opinion@kansan.com
The unconscious consist of those of us who stumble around in a daze — traveling back and forth and back and forth to class or work unaware of what is taking place around us.
I need to get back to wondering. I used to wonder all of the time, but now, I fear the worst has happened: I have joined the ranks of the unconscious.
Mike
PETER DENNIS
I am not talking about understanding what is taking place in Lawrence news or around the world — although I suppose these, too, are important. I'm talking about the little things that we see, hear and touch every day. I'm talking about
seemingly insignificant questions that arise naturally from the use of our senses, such as: "I wonder why even erect yield signs at an inter-section?" Or:
"I wonder why the blender has an ice-crush button when the instructions explicitly say, 'Don't crush ice in blender?'?" Or:
Aha, now this is a WONDERful question. No one ever has specifically told me that trees cannot talk. I always just assumed they could not because they never appeared to have any oblivious orifices on their bodies — such as a mouth, or something — from which words might blurt. Heck, maybe they can talk.
"I wonder why trees can't talk?"
It also is important that you begin the conversation with a leading question — you know, to coax the tree into responding — such as:
Note: It is important that you talk directly toward the tree because passers-by will assume you are addressing them and may respond with a stare or a "Huh?" — This undoubtedly would result in unwanted attention and humiliation.
Try walking up to a tree that is standing, quietly, by itself — preferably an older, wiser-looking tree, such as an old oak or a maple and as in inconspicuously as possible, instigate a conversation.
"What are you, 60-80 years old?" Or
What are you, so why
"What is that velvet?"
Now, don't get too intimate. The last thing I would ever advocate is tree hugging. Just keep it simple. What is critical is that you listen carefully for a response, such as:
I'll moo, what's it to ya? Or,
"Quit picking at my bark you little."
"I'm 502. what's it to va?" Or.
If you do manage to hold at least a short, elementary conversation with the tree, then, well, I don't know what to tell you other than you probably are not the type of individual with whom I would associate.
The point is that it usually is interesting asking the stupid questions that seem to have the most obvious answers. Answers so obvious that
no one ever has bothered giving them because no one ever has bothered asking for them.
"Why is it so difficult to track a chirping cricket?"
I still look for crickets when I hear them chirping. If I'm late for class, and I'm rushing across campus, I'll stop on a dime for a chirping cricket. It is pathetic, I know, but I feel as though I am being mocked.
Here's a good one:
I follow the sound, closer and closer, obsessively and methodically, pinpointing what I am certain must be the precise location of the annoying insect, and then when I think I'm right on to him, the little bugger's never there.
Sometimes the search takes hours because Jiminy often catches on that I am looking for him, and he shuts up whenever I get within seven to eight feet.
I freeze, and then he starts chirping, only to cease again when I resume the search. It becomes a battle of wits, a game of warmer-colder, and I lose every time.
The only time I ever catch Jiminy is when I smash him as I rush by — unconscious and unaware of his chirping — on my way to class. Talk about senseless. I'd rather search endlessly for him than step on him, distribute his body throughout campus and never even realize that I actually caught up with him.
It is not about showing remorse for the cricket. It is not even about pursuing the cricket, as I attempt to do. It is about knowing that the cricket exists, hopping around with big bulbous eyes, whistling mundane and repetitive, yet luring notes while scratching its legs together in an intermittent bow-to violin-like motion. Speaking of which:
"I wonder how a cricket makes such a loud sound just by rubbing his or her legs together, anyway" Come to think of it:
"I wonder what is the point of painting a 100-foot span of broken centerline for passing on a two-way, 65-mph highway?" My car would have to be suitable for Formula 1 racing to pass a car going 65 mph — the same speed as I'm going — in a matter of 1.048 seconds, roughly the amount of time it would take before the 100-foot passing window closed. Speaking of time:
"How many insects actually have lived after colliding head on with my car. Whoa. Come to think of it, how many have died?" Speaking of driving:
"Why don't more people eat eggs and drink orange juice during dinner? They really taste quite different in the evening." Speaking of wondering:
"I wonder why I don't wonder about seemingly insignificant stuff all of the time?" Sure, the answers to my questions usually are useless and inapplicable, but the curiosity seems to keep my senses calibrated toward consciousness.
Thus, I will continue to wonder and wonder and wonder...

Student wins scholarship for thespians
ay T.J. Johnson
fjohnson@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
Megan Dillingham, Overland Park graduate student, is still amazed at receiving a scholarship on the Kennedy Center stage in Washington, D.C.
Dillingham was one of 16 participants who qualified to compete for the Irene Ryan scholarship after placing first or second in one of eight regional competitions in January. Both a male and a female winner were announced for the $2,500 scholarship this weekend.
Dillingham won for her performance of a five-minute dialogue from Isreal Horovitz's "Primary English Class." She also was awarded the Classical Acting Award, which is given to a participant who shows excellence in classical acting for her performance from Shakespeare's "Henry V."
"It was amazing; my dad wouldn't put the trophy down," she said of the celebration after the award was presented.
Dillingham was assisted in her reading of "Henry V" by Alice Robison, Lawrence graduate student.
"I would give a big, enormous, huge, large thank you to Alice." Dillingham said.
She said that she had been nervous about performing at the Kennedy Center but that the experience had been wonderful.
"We were there all weekend, but we were in windowless rehearsal rooms or backstage," Dillingham said. "I thought the stage would be scary, but it wasn't. Even though it was a big house it wasn't nerve-wrecking."
She performed her monologue toward the beginning of the program and then waited with the rest of the contestants to hear the results of the competition.
"Everyone there was fantastic, and it could have been anyone, in my opinion," Dillingham said. "Everyone supported everyone else."
She was accompanied by a small contingent of supporters from her family and the University, including associate professor Paul Lim of the English Alternative Theater. Lim directed Dillingham in the play "Victim Art" last year. The role landed her a nomination to travel to the regional competition in January.
Lim said that he was very happy for Dillingham and that he thought she deserved the award.
"It was absolutely remarkable," he said. "Megan has such a wonderful persona that anyone who meets her falls in love with her. It was very clear that she was the unanimous choice of a lot of people."
That Dillingham won was even more amazing because she and her assistant, Robison, are not theater majors, unlike the overwhelming majority of the other contestants, Lim said.
He said that casting agents from television networks and other organizations attended the competitions and that the award could have implications for Dillingham's future.
"This particular award should open a lot of doors for her." Lim said.
Dillingham said she had not thought about what the award would mean for her or a possible career in acting.
"Careerwise, I'm taking it one step at a time," she said. "That's going to look pretty good on a resume, but I haven't given much thought to it vet."
Dillingham said that she had fun at the competition and that she would not have received the award without the help of Lim, Robison and Grant Goodman of the English Alternative Theater.
"It was almost like a mini-vacation." she said. "We had a great time, and I couldn't have asked for a better partner. She was great on stage."

Granada musical benefit to honor bus driver's life
By Ezra Sykes
esykes@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Loud music, celebration, family and friends — Rockin' Ron would have had it no other way.
Ron "Rockin' Ron" Gleason, who died from a heart attack Feb. 27 at age 50, will be remembered at 8 p.m. tonight at the Granada, 1020 Massachusetts St., at the Rockin' Ron Memorial Benefit.
Gleason, who had been a driver with Lawrence Bus Company for 12 years, was known on campus for the loud rock 'n' roll music he played in his bus.
And appropriately enough, loud music will be present at the benefit.
Flight 19, The Lonesome Hound Dogs, The Border Band and The Buick 6's will provide the tunes.
Vince Chavez, drummer for Flight 19 and Lawrence resident, knew Gleason for 20 years. The two watched each other get married and raise children, often taking family trips together.
"It was a lot of fun being around him," Chavez said. "I always felt better because he was constantly in a good mood. With all the stress of being a bus driver, I don't understand how he could always be so calm."
Chavez thought the benefit was fitting for the bus driver who regularly bid farewell to his passengers with a "party hearty."
"This is the very music he cared about," Chavez said. "I hope people get together and enjoy themselves. That was Ron's way of living."
Gleason's wife, Rauna, couldn't agree more.
"Ron really loved three things — his family, music and people," she said. "All the components for his perfect party will be there."
And although a little sadness will probably be present among party-goers, Rauna Gleason said there was reason to be cheerful.
"I don't want to mourn Ron's death," she said. "I want to celebrate his life."
Proceeds from the Rockin' Ron Benefit concert will go into an education fund for Gleason's two surviving sons, Raymond, 8, and Ron, 14. Admission is $5.

Leaders, volunteers needed for international orientation
By Julia Nicholson Special to the Kansas
Yukako Imamura arrived at Kansas City International Airport wide-eyed and confused.
"It was the most nervous moment since leaving home," Imamura said. "Because I didn't know anybody, I didn't know what to do."
Volunteers from the University of Kansas stationed at the airport checked her in and directed her to Lawrence.
Orientation programs, such as the one imamura attended, serve to allay some of the anxiety and ease the transition from a familiar culture to unfamiliar territory.
International Student Services, which organizes International Student Orientation, is looking for orientation leaders and volunteers for the upcoming fall orientation on August 8-16. Applications are due Thursday.
ISS helps international students with the immigration process, safety and health information, and finances and housing, said Eko Setiawan, a programming assistant with ISS and a past orientation leader and volunteer. ISS also arranges transportation for students to shopping areas and restaurants.
In the fall, the University receives as many as 300 new international students, about half of whom will participate in the actual orientation program. Orientation familiarizes these students to life at the University and in the United States, but students who participate in
orientation get more than just information
"It's their first step towards becoming a successful student at KU," said Michael Ediger, assistant director of ISS.
Because orientation leaders are students themselves, incoming students can easily relate to them.
Applicants will be interviewed by a panel of ISS staff, who will choose six leaders. These leaders will be required to help out during the orientation period for a total of about 40 hours and will be paid a stipend of $175. Volunteers do not have to commit as much of their time as orientation leaders and can choose the times when they are available to help. Even a couple of hours would be useful. Ediger said.
May Harrell, Salina senior, has volunteered twice.
"You meet all different kinds of people in all fields of study," she said. "It's kind of interesting."
Wajahab Abdullah, Karachi, Pakistan, freshman, went through the program last fall and enjoyed the experience so much that he volunteered in the spring.
"International students come to a foreign country where they don't know anybody," he said. "It's easy to get to know them and become friends."
Applications are available at International Student Services, 2 Strong Hall, and are due by 5 p.m. Thursday.

A FAITH BEWITCHED
Wieca, a nature-centered pagan religion often is misunderstood by outsiders

ders past a 12 acre lake and through a cluster of red wooden buildings. From there, the road snakes through woods and passes a small green sign. The bright yellow lettering reads, "Clothing optional beyond this point." Finally, the road charges up a steep hill to a hilltop clearing.
The clearing is the place where witches meet.
It is March 20, the spring equinox, one of the eight major holidays of the Wiccan religion. Members of The Web of Oz, the largest Lawrence-based Wiccan group, are preparing to worship at Gaea, 168 acres of natural land located in a rural area about 30 miles northeast of Lawrence.
Kathryn Huxtable, a Web of Oz member who works for Academic Computing Services, said about three KU students and six KU employees participate in group events.
Wicca is a pagan, polytheistic, nature-centered religion whose members — both male and female — refer to themselves as witches.
That's because Wicaa is highly individualized with very little hierarchy to it, said Tim Miller, professor of religious studies.
He said, that while pagan religions have existed for thousands of years, the Wiccan branch of paganism probably began less than a century ago in Britain.
Nevertheless, many Wiccans believe the religion is an ancient sect that survived underground for centuries, and several practices are similar to ancient pagan rituals, Miller said.
In any case, Wicca boasts modern social causes — such as environmentalism and feminism — that attract people to the religion.
But beyond that, trying to define the religion is an exercise in futility. Each of the hundreds of Wiccans in Lawrence has his or her own definition.
Rachel Stoughton, Hutchinson junior, began reading Wiccan books her freshman year at University of Kansas. She said she was fascinated by the feminist and environmental concepts the religion contained.
"Christianity was taught to me as so masculine," she said. "The first book I read was a feminist Wiecan book. I would pull out all the goddess aspects."
Although some Wiccans worship as part of a group, the majority in the Lawrence area are solitaries —
Others, such as Aaron Shaffer, Topeka sophomore, mix both. While Shaffer said he has attended a few Web of Oz events, he practices mainly by himself.
Rituals, both group and solitary, vary but often include meditation, chanting, burning incense and candles, and casting spells.
Miller said that the multiple gods and goddesses and the worship of nature are what qualify the religion as pagan. While many people equate paganism with Satanism, he said, the two are not related.
"I tend to use magic in my rituals," said Stoughton, who is also a solitary. "I usually choose a theme and focus on that."
Near left: Stoughton's personal artifacts that she uses in rituals.
Wiccans usually worship a wide variety of deities, though most worship a supreme goddess and sometimes a supreme god as well.
Stoughton said that Wiccans believe spells and magic work by focusing energy from the environment on a goal.
Actually, Wiccans have a moral code contained in what is known as the Witches' Rede: "If it harm none, do what you will."
Wiccans must make sacrifices at some ceremonies. At the March 20 ceremony, offerings range from a whistle to quartz to a toy tractor to thyme. Wiccans sacrifice items that are personally meaningful to them. Animals are not among the sacrifices Wiccans offer to their gods and goddesses.
Nevertheless, myths about animal sacrifices are popular conceptions of paganism. Witches say their religion rarely is understood by outsiders and often maligned.
But not all Wiccans cast spells.
Peterson said she rarely does anything more than meditate.
However, Miller said paganism
"Going public as a witch is often referred to as coming out of the broom closet."

still has trouble overcoming the false link forged with Satanism more than 1,000 years ago.
it took about 1,000 years for Christianity to spread across Europe," Miller said. "As it spread, the Church needed to have Christianity wipe out the established religions of different regions, so they had to make people to drop their current religions. Christianity couldn't triumph completely by persuasion. So instead, it redefined everything not Christian as Satanic. It succeeded gloriously."
"When I was at home and tried to do rituals, I was afraid I'd be caught," she said. "I might never tell them. I don't want to hurt their feelings."
Stoughton grew up in a strict Christian household.
Misconceptions remain today
She was home-schooled because she said her parents thought public schools were immoral.
Her father is a Baptist minister. She said when she was about 10, she believed the Christian teachings that were constantly hurled at her.
Since 1997, she has practiced Wicca, but she has not told her parents about her religion.
Stoughton is in a classic Wiccan bind. Wiccans say that because of the myths about their religion, they often fall prey to prejudice and misunderstanding.
Shaffer said that when he was in Boy Scouts in high school, he was confronted by parents of two of the
other boys and told not to mention his religion to scouts.
His decision to become a Wiccan also displeased his mother.
"I'm also a confirmed Methodist," Shaffer said. "Because of my family and the expectations placed on me, it was expected I'd go through that."
Now he and his mother employ a don't-task, don't-tell policy regarding his religion.
Darcie Callahan, Lawrence graduate student, who wrote her master's thesis on Wicca, said such minor examples of prejudice are common. But in the course of interviewing Wiccans for her research, she found more severe examples, including the loss of jobs and child custody.
Callahan also said that in more
But she said not all University employees are so lucky. She said some of her Wiccan friends in other departments felt they had to hide their religion.
Acts such as these lead many Wiccans to exercise caution and practice in secrecy.
Huxtable said that as a KU employee, she can be open about her religion while at work.
"I have not felt any discrimination." Huxtable said. "I've been very well supported."
rural areas, Wiccans' pets are killed or crosses are burned on their lawns.
"There are a lot of parallels between homosexuality and Wiccanism," Shaffer said. "Either people don't care, or they hate it."
Callahan said the process of coming out as a Wiccan is often like when gay students come out.
"Going public as a witch is often referred to as coming out of the broom closet," she said.
Despite prejudice, Wicca is growing — especially among college-age people.
"A lot of the growth now is in the younger age groups." Callahan said.
Miller said that the number of Wichens in Lawrence, already in the hundreds, will continue to grow.
He said the modern draws of feminism and environmentalism set the stage for long-term growth.
Back at the clearing, the participants of the March 20 ceremony finish their ritual by singing a nature-themed song and talking about the future. They promise to meet again.

HUTCHINSON — Jayhawk sports fans, you have a conference champion.
The Kansas men's golf team, picked to finish fifth in the Big 12 Conference preseason coaches' poll, wrapped up its first conference title since 1950 yesterday at Prairie Dunes Country Club.
The Jayhawks became only the fourth team to win a Big 8 or Big 12 Championship other than Oklahoma State, which has won a conference title 47 times since 1947.
But it didn't come easily. Nebraska finished a close second, only two strokes behind the Jayhawks. Texas shot a tournament record 279 in the final round to finish third, five strokes behind Kansas.
"This is it—this is what we've worked for." Kansas coach Ross Randall said. "I didn't know it was quite so close, and the wait for the results was nerve-wrecking."
Ross Randall
The Jayhawks won the title with a good performance from every player. Junior Jake Istnick was the only Kansas player to shoot par on the par-70 course yesterday, and his performance came at a key time. Especially when
"We knew at the beginning of the season that we had a good team. We've had teams that have finished second in conference play before, and that was bitter-sweet. But this was a lot better."
Kansas golf coach
junior Ryan Vermeer, who came into the final round tied for first place, shot a 78 in the final round, his worst performance at the championships.
"Iknew it would be a big battle for the team title," said Istrick, who improved each round by five strokes. "Today I had my head on better. I hit some great shots today but the difference was in my putting."
Thompson said that he was happy with his performance and that the team championship meant more to him than an individual crown would have.
Kansas also enjoyed solid performances from junior Brad Davis, who along with Vermeer finished tied for ninth individually, and senior Chris Thompson, who tied for second. Thompson finished one stroke behind Texas freshman David Gossett, who won the individual title with a one-under-pair score of 209.
vidual crown would have.
"I've tasted victory before as an individual, but sometimes you have to tip your hat," he said.
Kansas led after each round, and Davis said that going into yesterday's final 18 holes, he felt additional pressure.
"I felt it on the front nine," he said. "I shot par on 12, so once we got to 13, I liked the way I was playing, and I just relaxed."
Davis shot a birdie on five of the last seven holes, and his final-round score was 71.
The Jayhawks will not play again until regionals on May 20, and with yesterday's title, Randall said he thought that their seed would improve.
"We knew at the beginning of the season that we had a good team," he said. "We've had teams that have finished second in conference play before, and that was bittersweet. But this was a lot better."

Track coach promises return of Relays
By Mike Miller

Kansan sportswriter
Some way, in some form or another, the University of Kansas is committed to bringing back the Kansas Relays.
What was once the focal point of the track season has become a lost meet for the last two years. The renovations to Memorial Stadium have kept the meet from happening.
But Coach Gary Schwartz swears the Relays will happen next year.
we're trying to come up with a format and site," Schwartz said. "But the bottom line is that we're going to have them."
Although Athletics Director Bob Frederick said the Relays would be at Memorial Stadium, the renovations leave it inadequate to sponsor a collegiate meet. Frederick regrets the loss of the Relays but said construction was necessary.
"It was an unavoidable circumstance," Fredrick said. "We had a 78-year-old stadium with no significant changes done to it. It needed to be upgraded."
but do the changes have to come at the expense of a track meet steeped in eight decades of tradition?
In today's athletic world, revenue comes first. Plans for the future might include lowering the field to include more seats, leaving Memorial Stadium without a track.
During the heyday of the Relays, they used to attract people in droves — 20,000 fans a year — with the climax coming during the 1972 season when 36,000 people came to watch ex-Jayhawk great Jim Ryun run.
"To generate more money, very few stadiums around the country are built with tracks. It used to be that every football field came with a track around it. It's going away from that," he said.
"Football has the best potential for making lots of money." Schwartz said.

Baseball team to meet displaced Wildcats in Wichita tonight
By Matt Tait

Kansas State had planned to renovate its baseball stadium and have it ready for the start of this season.
However, slow work and unfavorable conditions have left the renovation of Frank Myers Field unfinished. As a result, the Wildcat baseball team has been unable to play any home games.
any home games. "It has been tough playing on the road," said Mike Clark, Kansas State baseball coach. "But before the season started, the players got some T-shirts printed that said 'Road Warriors' across the front, and they've made the most of the situation."
The Wildcats' relocated home games have been played in a number of locations. Tonight's "home game" against Kansas will be played in Wichita.
Difficult it has been, but not so difficult that the Wildcats couldn't compete. In fact, they are just a half game behind Okla-

"It'll be an emotional game," Randall said. "It always is from the standpoint that it's a big rivalry. Yeah, our tournament hopes are gone, and we have to deal with the reality of that, but the reality also is that it's still fun to win games, and that's what we want to do."

Commentary
Player helps writer debunk right-arm-flex campus myths
A couple of weeks ago, I'm hanging out on the front lawn of Strong Hall where they had the basketball goal set up to promote the now green-lighted recreation center. I'm talking with some friends, and Ryan Robertson walks up.
If you're like me, you've got a serious college basketball Jones on right now. So here's a little random college basketball story for my people.
"Hi, Ryan, I'm Seth Jones, the sports columnist." I said.
I've never met Ryan, but he's been the target of several good-natured shots in my columns. So I figured the least I should do is shake his hand.
An angry look came across his face. He punched me in the stomach. I doubled over, and he kicked me. I was lying on the ground in pain, and he started shouting, "Right-arm-flex this, Jon see!"
PETER SCHNEIDER
All right, that really didn't happen. But apparently some people thought it might have.

spots@kansan.com
So Robertson is a Seth Jones fan. I
The first thing Ryan tells me is: "Man, I love your columns. The right-arm-flex thing cracks me up," he said. "People think I hate your guts, but I don't."
mought that was kind of cool. We had a nice conversation about basketball and some of the things I've said.
I learned that there were several myths going around about Robertson's good play celebration, the clenched fist and flex with his right arm. Jayhawk fans saw the move often in Allen Fieldhouse after he would pick up a charge or after a defensive stop and shot-clock violation.
So we're going to clear the air here.
Myth 1: The right-arm-flex is a defensive play call. Not true. Keep in mind we're not talking about a fist in the air or an index finger in the air, which are calls that you see often from Robertson or Jeff Boschee. Robertson said that dumb Mizzou fans thought that he was telling fans that he thought he was No. 1 when he was really just calling a play. Maybe Robertson should have extended the middle finger one of those times on accident.
Myth 2: Robertson is looking to kick my butt because he hates my mats. Not true. Some of my readers, who take their appreciation of Robertson a little too far, have sent me hate mail because I, heaven forbid, actually poked fun at a fellow Jayhawk. Attention angry readers: basketball players have senses of humor, too.
Myth 3: The right-arm-flex is Robertson's tribute to Bruce Lee, who was able to defeat opponents simply by intimidating them with a flex. Not true. Actually Robertson got his special form of celebration from tennis great John McEnroe, just in case you were wondering.
At the end of our conversation, three older guys wearing suits walked out of Strong Hall and shook hands with Robertson. The last one congratulated him about the USBL Salina Cagerz contract he was about to sign. After he shook Robertson's hand, the old guy actually gave Robertson a right-arm-flex. So it is catching on.
As you probably know, Robertson will be hitting NBA camps after graduation and during the Cagerz season.
I'd like to wish Robertson the best of luck at those NBA camps. It would be great to see the former Jayhawk displaying the right-arm-flex at the next level.

Taurus (April 20-May 20): Today is a 5.

Gemini (May 21-June 21): Today is a 7.

Cancer (June 22- July 22); Today is a 5.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Today is a 7.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Today is a 7.
It looks as if there could be an argument going on out there. You're not directly involved, but you could act as a referee, and you'd be very good at it.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Today is a 5.
Today is excellent for career, work and even money.
Are you already doing the job you love? If so, you're in luck, but it probably took some effort on your part, too. You had to be in the right place at the right time and be willing to do what needed to be done.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Today is a 7.
You're just making your life look easy, and for some people that seems practically impossible. You probably know a couple of them. They're struggling nearby, hassling with one another about petty details. Try not to make them feel any worse than they already do.

This is a pretty good day to ask for a raise, especially if you've been working overtime or have some other reason to bolster your claim for more money. It's also a good day to buy stuff for your home, or for somebody who lives there with you.
Aries (March 21-April 19): Today is a 7.
This day should be very interesting. It looks as if you're learning from a lot of different sources. Your friends are giving you good feedback and several excellent ideas, and a person you love is also involved in telling you how to run your life. Just listen and learn, from whoever wants to teach you.

Softball player chosen as pitcher of the week
Kansas pitcher Sarah Workman was named Big 12 Pitcher of the Week for the week of April 19-25. Workman had two victories and a save in 24 2/3 innings of work.
The right-handed Workman had four appearances and compiled a 2-1 record while recording a 0.57 ERA. She had 22 strikeouts, posted her 15th win and third save of the season and led the conference in saves.
Included in her two victories was Workman's eighth shutout of the season in a 1-0 win against No. 18 Texas A&M. In her save against No. 11 Texas, Workman finished the final 2/3 innings after entering in the fifth with runners on second and third and one out. Workman struck out the next two Longhorn batters, getting Kansas out of the jam. Workman is 15-11 on
the season with a 1.28 ERA, the sixth best ERA in the Big 12.
Workman continues to climb the Kansas records as well. Workman is fourth in career appearances (11.8), innings pitched (694) and victories (57). She is third in career strikeouts (558) and fifth in career shutouts (22).

Workman's performance helped the Kansas softball team (25-24, 6:6) earn a fifth place ranking in the Midwest Region.
Kansas swept No. 11 Texas and split with no. 18 Texas A&M.

Bob Clarke heard it all during his Hall of Fame career. Now Sandy McCarthy, one of Clarke's players on the Philadelphia Flyers, is accusing Toronto's Tie Domi of using a racial slur about his black heritage in a playoff game.
PHILADELPHIA — It is easy to see that the NHL is not a place for the faint of heart. The best players will do anything to get an edge — bite, spit, snort, and yes, unleash insults that can be personal and sometimes disgusting.
The league began investigating the claim yesterday, forced again to confront the dirty secret that threatens to damage the sport's image right in the middle of the Stanley Cup playoffs.
NHL confronts claim of on-ice racial slur
"Unless you're a black player like Sandy McCarthy, none of us can understand what calling a person that name does to you," said Clarke, the Flyers' general manager who was captain of their last Stanley Cup championship team in 1974.
-Kansan staff reports
After trading shoves and words with Domi during Toronto's 2-1 victory Monday night, McCarthy said the Maple Leafs forward "dropped an N-bomb on me" during a heated exchange in the second period. Officials on the ice and players for both teams said they didn't hear the slur.
Domi denied using it, saying instead that McCarthy had spit in his face.
said. He can say what the man's NHL supervisor John D'Amico contacted Commissioner Gary Bettman and Colin Campbell, league disciplinarian, immediately after the game. McCarthy talked with league officials early yesterday morning and after practice later in the day. Frank Brown, an NHL vice president, said the league was looking into the accusation and had no comment yet.
It appears to be McCarthy's word against Domi's. The only obvious conclusion is that the fourth such incident in two years is hurting the NHL's image.
"I would never use those kind of words, and he knows that," Domi said. "He can save what he wants."
LAWRENCE — After 41 years in coaching, Dick Purdy says he no longer has the dedication that won him six state championships and made him the winningest active high school football coach in Kansas. So he's moving away.

"Every Lawrence High football team since I've been here has gotten my absolute 120 percent effort in getting ready for the next season. I was putting things off," Purdy said.

Purdy, who turned 65 on April 11, said he hadn't been doing the little things to prepare for the upcoming season.
"This winter we went to a lot of clinics because we want to pick up something new, I wasn't paying attention," Purdy said. "And I go through each game film (from the previous season) and re-scout it. It's April, and I'm on the third game of the season."

Purdy led the Lions to state championships in his first four years and to another in 1995. Lawrence went 12-0 in 1992 and 1993 and had a 35-game winning streak that started in 1991 and ended in 1994.

Rams ponder signing former Missouri back
West set a Tigers single-season rushing record last season with 1,578 yards. He was on the Rams' draft board but wasn't taken because of a stress fracture in his right foot.
Rams vice president of personnel Charley Armey said that if West could pass a physical Friday — or if it is determined he can pass a physical in the near future — he may be signed as a fullback.
Late last week, Rams' coach Dick Vermell called West's father, Mike Bowby, to tell him of plans to bring West in for a physical.
ST. LOUIS — Devin West may get a crack at pro football in his own home state.
"I was pretty excited when Coach Vermell called." West said.
The St. Louis Rams are considering signing the former Missouri star, who was not selected in the recent NFL draft and in the subsequent rash of undrafted free-agent signings.
West had expected to be drafted but knew his foot injury would be a factor. He figured it would knock him further down in the draft but not out of it complete!
West expects he'll need surgery to repair the foot. A physician told him it would require about six weeks of recovery, followed by rehabilitation. Such a schedule could put him in jeopardy of not being well enough by the start of training camp in July, but West said he would play if he could.

Section B·Page 3
Coach wants Relays to fill stands
Continued from page 1B
"People came because they loved to watch track and field. Now there's a lot more going on during the weekend." Schwartz said.
Since their inception in 1923, the Relays were held as a Midwest track meet of the highest caliber. Year in and year out, more than 1,500 athletes would make the trip to Lawrence. They have been canceled only three times previously — during World War II — and ushered in the golden age of Kansas track.
Kansas won a combined 36 indoor and outdoor conference titles between 1946 and 1970, including a string of eight in a row from 1952 to 1959. Kansas won its first outdoor national title in 1959 and would win five more indoor and outdoor national titles between 1959 and 1970. The Relays only served to increase the team's popularity, which culminated in 1972.
The Kansas Relays drew big crowds in the the 1970s. The Relays suffered from flagging attendance since then and have not been held in Lawrence the last two years because of Memorial Stadium renovations. Photo Courtesy of University Archives
Attendance has dropped steadily since then. Only 3,500 fans came in 1996.
Recent Relays still attracted 1,200 athletes but mostly from small colleges and junior colleges.
Indeed, it takes money to organize a high-profile college meet.
"we can have a great college meet. But is it a great meet because there are people in the stands or because of the competition?" Schwartz said.
when world-record holder Maurice Greene came to Kansas in January to run in the Jayhawk Invitational, Anschutz Sports Pavilion was filled with fans — all to see Greene run. The meet consisted mostly of small schools, and the competition was decent, but small. Yet, to fill the stands, it took a high-profile star.
"To put people in the stands, you're going to have to put on a great show." Schwartz said. "A spectacle."
In 1997, Kansas tried a spectacle.
For the first time, the Relays had a corporate sponsor, Columbia HCA, helping to pay attendance fees of 18 Olympic athletes.
It worked, to a point.
A work to a point. Attendance jumped from 3,500 to 4,500 fans. The corporate sponsor brought more attention and a concerted effort during a two-year period for recognizable names. Associate Athletics Director Paul Buskirk said.
Schwartz said he thought those names were necessary for high attendance.
"You've got to have nice features to bring those people in," he said.
Even if fans return for the Relays, teams coming back will have another problem.
Except for the high school teams.
"We can do the high school version in Memorial Stadium right now," Schwartz said.
The Relays have become a mecca for high school teams from Iowa to Colorado. It was so important to the area high school teams that Olathe East temporarily adopted the meet. The Sunflower Classic served as a substitute for the Relays the last two years.
"The high school version has been maintained. Schools kept that date in April open. But college teams can't do that," Buskirk said.
The high school version is ready to move back from Olathe to Memorial Stadium, but, Schwartz said, it would probably be the only version of the Relays next year.
One complication is that college teams have other venues now.
The Mt. SAC Relays, in Carmel, Calif., and the Arkansas Invitational in Fayetteville, Ark., have grown the last two years without the Relays. They are both on the same weekend as the Relays would be and present an obstacle that will take years to overcome.
To combat this, Schwartz said he wanted to change the format and make the relags more hospitable to teams. This may change the way things have been done traditionally.
"People seem to like the short sprints, so we might put them all together during Saturday afternoon," he said. "Things like that are probably necessary changes."
With changes, Schwartz is unsure how long it will take before the Relays regain the grandeur of old.
"I don't know," he said. "The scary thing is: Will we ever get back to that point?"

Former Vikings star accused of assaulting female acquaintance
MINNEAPOLIS — Former Minnesota Vikings star Carl Eller said he knew the woman who accused him of sexual assault and thought their encounter was an "amicable situation."
The Associated Press
Eller said he had sex with the
woman in his motel room last week in North Mankato Police there
G
said Eller had not talked with them about what happened.
"It was someone I knew for about a year," Eler said in yesterday's Minneapolis-St. Paul Star Tribune." "I thought it was an amicable situation. It had been in the past."
North Mankato Police Captain Wayne Hoffman said he hoped to make a report to the county attorney by next week.
The woman called police about 2 a.m. last Wednesday and said Eller assaulted her, police said. Eller had been in the Mankato area talking to groups about substance abuse.
Eller is on paid adn:inistrative leave from his job with the state Department of Human Services pending the outcome of the investigation, said deputy commissioner Tom Moss.
"This is an attack on my reputation," Eller said. "It is harmful and hurtful, and it's painful for my kids and my family. I spent a long time building my reputation, and that's what's important to me."
Eller was a star defensive end with the Vikings "Purple People Eaters," the front four that helped Minnesota to four Super Bowl appearances in the 1970s. Eller made six Pro Bowl appearances and was among 15 finalists for the Pro Football Hall of Fame this year, although he did not get in.
WNBA, players still negotiating
Disputes about salary benefits delay draft
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Negotiators for the WNBA and its players association returned to the bargaining table yesterday in an effort to finalize their first collective bargaining agreement
The sides talked for eight hours Monday, trying to resolve differences that caused an apparent agreement to fall apart last week. At that time, both sides claimed the other had
WNBA
injected new terms at the last minute.
The league postponed its player draft, which had been scheduled for yesterday, causing Pam Wheeler, executive director of the WNBA players association, to issue a statement charging league officials with trying to intimidate the players.
Earlier, the union and league agreed on a 4-year deal that would increase minimum salaries from $15,000 to $30,000 for veterans and $25,000 for rookies. Those figures would increase to $40,000 and $30,000, respectively, by 2002. The benefits package was to include year-round health and dental benefits, pension, maternity benefits and life insurance.
The 10-week season is supposed to begin June 10.
The union claimed that the league introduced five issues in talks last Wednesday night and said that if the players association did not agree to them, there would be no deal.
Among the changes was the right to extend the 32-game season without increasing salaries, the addition of random drug testing and no increase in the rookie wage scale for the duration of the contract.
The 2-year-old WNBA has added expansion teams in Orlando and Minnesota for this season and plans to add four more cities by 2000, increasing membership to 16 franchises.
Malone earning reputation as bully of NBA
The Associated Press
His latest victim is Joe Kleine, who needed 30 stitches and plastic surgery after Malone's elbow reconstructed his face Monday night. Afterward, Malone made no apologies for sending another opponent to the hospital.
SALT LAKE CITY — Karl Malone has always said he's not out to hurt anybody. It's just that fewer and fewer people around the NBA believe him.
"That's the way I play," Malone said. "It's the way I'm going to play until I'm finished playing. That's just the way it is."
The Utah Jazz forward is having another standout year as the leading scorer on the team with the league's best record. But it's his trademark physical — many call it dirty — play that's getting the most attention as the regular season is ending.
With a string of controversial incidents in
past weeks, Malone's growing reputation as a bully might be the only thing that could prevent him from winning a second Most Valuable Player award. Ballots aren't due until the end of the regular season, and the growing backlash against Malone's tactics could sway a number of voters.
Kleine's lower lip might disagree. It was split nearly in two when Malone, who was going up for a shot, smacked Kleine in the face with his elbow. Malone ran to the other end of the floor, but Kleine followed him and gave Malone a hard shove in the chest, leaving a bloody handprint on Malone's terse.
The Suns were divided on the incident after the game, with former Jazzman Chris Morris
"There's that possibility," Utah coach Jerry Sloan said. "But Karl isn't going to change what he does. He's just a very tough player, and he's not trying to do what happens sometimes."
saying the elbow "looked pretty vicious" and Rex Chapman doubtting it was intentional.
"If Karl does this stuff intentionally, he's the best disguise artist ever," Utah's Bryon Russell said. "He wasn't trying to get anybody. He was just going up for a shot. Why would he want, to get it."
want to get Joe Kleine?"
Kleine returned to Phoenix and won't be with team for the last two games of its road trip. Suns spokesman Scott Leightman said.
JAZZ
At 35, Malone is still a fearsome physical specimen as he showed when he took off his bloody jersey on the court Monday before running to the locker room to change. He hasn't missed a game because of injury since the 1988-89 season.

New senate begins by encouraging use of open debate

The lights went out at a joint session of Student Senate last night.
It was part of an elaborate entrance by Kevin Yoder and Scott Kaiser, outgoing student body president and vice president, who walked into the Kansas Union Ballroom wearing sunglasses while wrestling music blared on loud speakers.

student body gets out," Maxwell said.
As Kevin Yoder and Scott Kaiser handed over the reigns of student body president and vice president last night, they kept in mind the year's accomplishments and the groundwork they tried to lay for next year's Student Senate leaders.
10er and Kaiser both said they were satisfied with most of the work they had done in office this year.
Seth Hoffman, outgoing Nunemaker senator and former Delta Force candidate for student body president, encouraged new senators to be committed and dedicated to making sure students' interests were the priority at the University of Kansas. Hoffman, who said he would probably not speak in front Senate again, received a standing ovation.
"I encourage next year to be the year of debate, arguments and disagreements because that's the way the voice of the
Former officers recall their year's successes failures as term ends
As the knock of Kaiser's gavel signaled the conclusion of this year's Senate, the non-returning senators filed out of the room, and Korb Maxwell and Dede Seibel, incoming student body president and vice president, delivered their first officer reports for the new Senate.
New Senate acclimated a resolution supporting Haskell Indian Nations University's concerns about the proposed South Lawrence Trafficway construction project. Senate also approved the following positions for next year:
State and local agencies ... Marlon Marshall, Senate executive chair; Patrick McGiffert, treasurer; Gregory Wiley, assistant treasurer; Kim Fuchs, secretary; Ben Walker, Student Legislative Awareness Board legislative director; Michael Henry, SLAB campus director; and Christina Harms and E.J.

especially with their proposal for a new $16 million campus recreation center, which the student body approved during Senate elections earlier this month.
Yoder, who will attend law school at the University of Kansas next fall, said he would continue to work on campus issues through boards and committees and would be involved with the construction of a new recreation center.
Kaiser, who will graduate in May 2000, said he would work toward his philosophy degree next year and also would continue his involvement with Senate.
Last spring, Yoder and Kaiser, who were Campus Cause candidates, promised to work on parking, online enrollment, campus safety and putting student fee increases to student body referendums.
Although he established a campus safety advisory board, Yoder said he wished there had been more progress toward a comprehensive campus safety package including a Safewalk program and the expansion
Yoder said Senate had procured more than 1,000 additional student parking spots on campus through Park and Ride, and 300 new spaces south of Robinson Center. But, he said, Senate had not secured as many student spots as he had hoped in the new parking garage.
Yoder said his biggest failure was that despite his efforts, he had been unsuccessful in gaining a solid agreement from the administration about the implementation of online enrollment.
Yoder said his favorite part of being student body president had been working with people on committees and boards, and his favorite moment was hearing that the recreation center referendum had passed. His least

Mentally ill slip through small cracks of legal system
By Katie Burford
kburford@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
A homeless man going by the name of Prince Don of Czech was yelling at anyone who would listen earlier this week in front of Milton's Coffee & Wine, 920 Massachusetts St. The restaurant called police to complain. When officers arrived to take him away, he asked them if they were Jews and spit on the sidewalk.
Lon of Czech, a.k.a. Mad Dog, spent about five hours in jail for disorderly conduct and then was back on the streets.
"It's not against the law to be mentally ill," said Sgt. George Wheeler of the Lawrence Police Department. "It is against the law to act out."
In some cases, though, it is an individual's mental illness that makes them act out or break the law.
"In the case where mental illness is a factor in somebody's criminal behavior, our intent is to break the cycle," Wheeler said.
One step that police can take to "break the cycle" is to have a person evaluated by a screener at Lawrence Memorial Hospital. If the person is found to be dangerous to himself or others then they can be committed to an institution.
"There was an assumption that people with mental illness would be accepted within the community," said Suzanne Boyd, assistant professor of social welfare. "But the stigma attached to mental illness resulted in them not being accepted, and there were so many of them that there wasn't adequate resources."
Margaret Severson, assistant professor of social welfare, researches mental illness and jails. She said that cases like Don of Czech's are often referred to as "mercy bookings."
"It serves to rescue the shopkeeper from an embarrassing situation," she said.
Lt. Mike Suitt, of the Douglas County Sheriff's Department, supervised jail staff for more than a year. He said that dealing with the mentally ill was challenging for jailers.
"You have to put up with the spitting, biting and banging on the walls," he said.
Suitt said that a staff nurse was available to administer medications when they are on them.
"Sometimes just talking with them for half an hour helps," he said.
He said that because Lawrence is a college town and tends be more tolerant, means that more of the mentally ill stay here.

GTAs fight for time at orientation
By Chris Hopkins chopkins@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
University policy prevents group from participating
Orientation is a time for new students to familiarize themselves with and adjust themselves to their new surroundings.
However, officials at the Center for Teaching Excellence, those who run GTA orientations, are sticking with their policy that doesn't allow organizations at orientation.
When it comes time for new graduate teaching assistants to meet the University of Kansas, the Graduate Teaching Assistant Coalition wants to participate.
Sandra Gautt, assistant provost, said that the Center for Teaching Excellence, which runs the orientation, supported the current policy.
"The decision was there are no tables for any groups," Gaunt said.
Gautt said that in recent years, GTAC had procured space for a table near the
Mark Horowitz, former GTAC president, said that members handed out fliers outside of the orientation but that he wasn't sure if GTAC had information tables. But in any case, he said, the current situation wasn't satisfactory.
orientation site, first in the Kansas Union when orientation was held there, then outside of Wescoe Hall when the orientation moved to the Center for Teaching Excellence in Budig Hall.
Gault said that the goal of the orientation was to interact with the GTAs so that they could understand the University's commitment to teaching and to give them some basic training in teaching.
"New GTAs that should come into the University should be exposed to the group that legally represents them," he said. "We want to be recognized as a legitimate part rather than on the fringes."
"Most of our new GTAs come to us with no background information," she said.
Horowitz said that it was also the responsibility of the University to teach incoming fTAs about the conditions of their job.
"Fart of that responsibility is knowing your contractual rights," he said.
Hans Hansen, school of business GTA, said the group shouldn't have their views censored, and the conditions of teaching should be covered.
Wes Beal, GTAC organizer, said that this year was particularly disappointing because of the progress the group thought they had made at a town meeting with Chancellor Robert Hemenway earlier this semester.
"We left fairly optimistic and thought we'd be able to work something out," he said.
Horowitz said that all the group wanted was five minutes of the eight-hour orientation.
"We're not asking the Chancellor if we can run the thing or have half of it, we're just asking for a small piece of time," he said.
Gautt said that the position in front of Wescoe that GTAC has used in past years gave them plenty of visibility.
As for GTAC, Secretary Amy Cummins said that they would keep working.
"We're still going to use other means to get the word out," she said.

Police arrest KU student for masturbating gesture
A 19-year-old KU student was arrested after a KU Public Safety officer saw him pull down his boxer shorts and make a masturbating gesture at 2 a.m. yesterday in the 1200 block of West Campus Road, said a KU Public Safety Office report.
The officer was driving down the road when he saw a group of males wearing boxers short. When one of the them saw the officer, he pulled down his boxers, grabbed his penis and stroked it "in a masturbating style," the report said.
The student then attempted to flee but was tackled by the officer. Upon retrieving the student's clothes, the officer discovered a false identification card in the student's pocket.

Lawyer accuses woman of blackmail attempt
A Merriam woman was arrested at 2:23 p.m. Tuesday after an Douglas County assistant district attorney reported to police that the woman had tried to blackmail him, said Sgt. George Wheeler of the Lawrence Police Department.
Wheeler said that police had recorded conversations of the woman telling the attorney that she would lie and tell police that he had purchased drugs from a friend of hers if he did not drop a charge of operating under the influence against her.
The woman was released from jail at 3:06 p.m. after posting bond.

House limits President's authority to send troops
WASHINGTON — In a challenge to President Clinton concerning Kosovo, a divided House voted yesterday to limit his authority to use ground forces in
Yugoslavia despite Clinton's appeal for the nation to speak "with a single voice."
The Republican-sponsored measure, approved 249 to 180, would require Clinton to obtain congressional approval before sending "ground elements to Kosovo or other parts of Yugoslavia. Clinton told lawmakers he still considers a ground campaign unnecessary — but promised to seek congressional approval if he changes his mind.
PRESIDENT BROWN
Clinton: Congress limited his ability to use ground troops
Even as Congress
debated limiting the war, the Pentagon announced the Air Force had alerted B-52 crews in the United States to be prepared for the possible deployment of 10 additional bombers to Europe to join the NATO air campaign.
The bombers would be among nearly 300 additional aircraft — mostly fighters, refuelers and other support planes
that NATO commanders have requested to accelerate the bombing of Yugoslavia.
Three students cleared in Columbine shooting
GOLDEN, Colo. — Three teenagers detained outside Columbine High School during last week's massacre have been cleared as suspects in the investigation, a sheriff's spokesman said today.
Investigators also said that the 18-year-old girlfriend of one of the gunmen bought three of the weapons used in the April 20 attack that left 15 dead. Sheriff's spokesman Steve Davis said the young woman bought two shotguns and a semiautomatic rifle.
On Tuesday, Sheriff John Stone told The Associated Press that the three young men who were taken into custody in combat fatigues were "subjects of our investigation." Davis said today, however, that they have been questioned at least twice and are not considered suspects.
Meanwhile, a Marine Corps spokesman said today that 18-year-old gunman Eric Harris had tried to enlist but was told by a recruiter visiting his home on April 15 that he had been rejected.
He said that Stone had outdated information when he made his comments to the AP.
"He was disqualified for a medical reason," 1st Lt. Jeff Sammons said from Quantic, Va.
Harris, who had been contacted by the Marines in a routine recruiting call, had failed to disclose that medical factor during a telephone screening April 2 and a face-to-face interview April 5. Sammons said.
However, Harris' parents told the recruiter about the medical situation, he said.
The Marines refused to discuss the medical reason, but a Harris family friend, Victor Good, told The New York Times that the teen had been taking psychiatric medication — a potentially disqualifying factor — and seeing a psychiatrist.
Government to sell food to terrorist countries
WASHINGTON — The Clinton administration opened the way yesterday for the sale of food and medical items to three countries listed as terrorist states — Iran, Libya and Sudan — arguing that economic sanctions often do more harm than good.
"Sales of food, medicine and other humanitarian necessities do not generally enhance a nation's military capacity or support terrorism," Under Secretary of State Stuart Eizenstat told reporters. "On the contrary, funds spent on agricultural commodities and products are not available for other, less desirable uses."
"Our purpose in applying sanctions is to influence the behavior of regimes, not to deny people their basic humanitarian needs," he said.
Barring such sales usually fails to hurt targeted regimes while depriving American companies of export opportunities, officials said.
Under the changed approach, humanitarian items will be exempted from future sanctions. Yesterday's announcement will not affect Iraq, North Korea and Cuba, all sanctioned countries to which sales of certain items are already permitted.
U. S. officials said it was unclear whether the changed policy meant a pending Iranian request for more than $500 million worth of American grain and sugar will be approved. A number of farm state senators and House members have been seeking approval of the request.
ON THE RECORD
A KU public safety officer was dispatched at 2:30 p.m. to Watkins Memorial Health Center on a report that they had received a suspicious letter. The letter was from a student who had been enrolled in 1967. The letter stated, "Please do not mix my seed in serum." The former student wrote that Watkins staff could expect to hear from him on his birthday, Jan. 31, 2000. Watkins does not keep records longer than 10 years and did not have any information on the man.
The Associated Press
A KU student's stereo was stolen between 10:30 a.m. dec. 10, 1998 and 6:30 p.m. Jan. 15 from the sixth floor of Jayhawker Towers, the KU Public Safety Office said. The stereo was valued at $200
Two KU students were cited for possession of false drivers' licenses at 1:40 a.m. Saturday on the seventh floor of Templin Hall, the KU Public Safety Office said.
A pizza delivery person was examined by medical personnel after he drove over a curb and hit a fence at 11:30 p.m. Monday at 13th Street and Oread Avenue, the KU Public Safety Office said. The wreck occurred because the student had a seizure, the report said. The student was not transported to the hospital and damage to both the car and fence was minor.

Yoder, Kaiser lament lost opportunities
Continued from page 1A
Yoder said he had tried to avoid falling vic tim to partisan politics.
favorite part, he said, was being falsely accused of working on certain projects, such as the recreation center, for motivations other than the interests of the student body.
Like Yoder, Kaiser said the recreation center proposal was his biggest accomplishment. Kaiser said some of the goals he had not accomplished had been pipe dreams or projects that couldn't have been completed in just one year.
"I tried to look at people for what they thought, not who they were, and not question their motives," he said. "Sometimes I fell below the fray. I wish I hadn't, but the very nature of Senate is politics."
Kaiser said he had made an effort to stay out of partisan politics, and he had become more tolerant after serving as student body vice president.
"I have pretty strong values, and sometimes I don't stand in other people's shoes," he said. "A lesson that I've learned is that tolerance is the ability to keep strong values on a short leash."
Partha Mazumdar, graduate senator, said that Yoder and Kaiser had not accomplished anything they had promised during their campaign last spring, such as online enrollment, restriping campus parking lots, sending fee increases to student body referendums and a campus safety program.
"They make easy promises to get elected," Mazumdar said. "It's hard to work on nonglamorous issues like a domestic partner policy or fall break. Fair is fair, they did this recreation center thing, but that isn't something they ran on or promised."
Mazumdar said that Yoder and Kaiser had been very partisan, and that this was evidenced by their attitudes toward members of both coalitions.
Julie Numrich, outgoing Senate executive chair, said Yoder and Kaiser had tried to avoid personal attacks and had stuck to doing their jobs.
"I'm very proud of both of them and proud to be on their executive staff," she said. "It was a more respectful environment than last year."
David Ambler, vice chancellor of student affairs and adviser to the student body president, said that Yoder and Kaiser had been very effective administrators.
"I think you evaluate leaders not on what they get through Senate or a referendum, but their ability to represent the interests of students in the University community and with the University administration," he said. "And Kevin would get high marks from me on that ability."
Jim Kitchen, dean of students and adviser to the student body vice president, said that he didn't think Yoder and Kaiser had accomplished all of their goals and that next year's Senate needed to work on many of their issues. But, he said, the year was very successful.

University of Kansas types and community residents mingled over cubed cheese,petit fours and soft drinks yesterday while they admired the University's "front door" during an open house at the KU Visitor Center.
By Kristi Reimer
Margey Frederick, coordinator of KU Visitor Services and the driving force behind development of the Visitor Center, said she hadn't known for sure whether people would show up, but that turnout had been good. She estimated that about 200 people attended the open house.
"We're open from 8 to 5, but it takes an event for people to come and find out what you're all about," Frederick said. "It takes a party."
Administrators in suits and parents with children in tow wandered under a pterodactyl
model suspended from the ceiling, examined computer kiosks from the KU School of Medicine, and City of Lawrence, and looked at display cases filled with campus life paraphernalia.
They also were able to meander through the Office of Admissions and Scholarships, which is located in the Visitor Center, to observe staff members at work.
"I wanted people to come out saying, 'I had no idea the amount of paperwork, the number of people it takes to admit one student to the University of Kansas,'" Frederick said.
Frederick said she had scrambled to get everything just right for the open house, right up until 3 p.m. when the doors opened. She grabbed a sunflower arrangement from her bedroom at home and mounted photos of campus buildings at the last minute.

brings the last minute Rick Mullen, director of promotions for the Athletics Department, had done his part, helping put together a display on University sports that included a football signed by Coach Terry Allen and a basketball signed by Coaches Roy Williams and Marian Washington.
"Most people think of KU basketball, but they can see here that we have a lot of other sports as well." Mullen said. "This is a great front door to the University, and it's not a bad view when the sun goes down."
Norm Steffen is a retired minister who lives in Lawrence. He came to the open house with his wife, Kay, after hearing about it on the radio.
"It sounded as though this was a wonderful new venture," Steffen said. "For many years, people didn't know where the entrance to KU was. This is a great addition to the accessibility of the University."

'Rockin' Ron street renaming facing barriers
By Jamie Knodel
iknodel@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
One Lawrence street shares a name with a former fraternity house mother, who members still hold in high regard.
However, some students are attempting to change the name of Stewart Avenue, which is home to five Greek houses, to commemorate a former KU on Wheels bus driver.
A petition is circulating to officially change Stewart Avenue to Rockin' Ron Avenue, after Ron "Rockin' Ron" Gleason who died Feb. 27 of a heart attack.
Lawrence city traffic engineer, Dave Woosley said the street was probably named when it was originally platted.
"City staff double checks and approves that a developer's suggestions make sense and are appropriate," Woosley said.
He also said that when the developers filed a plat they determined what the name of the streets would be.
The Kansas University Endowment Association platted the area, Fraternity Place, and most likely were responsible for selecting the name Stewart, Woosley said.
John Scarff, director of communications at the Endowment Association, said that officials at the association could not pinpoint the reason that the street took the name Stewart.
But members of the Lambda Chi Alpha fraternity can.
Michael Hurley, Lambda Chi Alpha fraternity educator, said that the Lambda Chi Alpha fraternity house was the first house to be built on Stewart Avenue and that "Mom" Stewart was the first house mother to serve in the area.
Stewart served as the Lambda Chi Alpha fraternity house mom until 1960, before the house at 1918 Stewart Ave., was built. Members of the fraternity said that a photograph of Stewart and an urn with her ashes were on a mantle in the house, as a tribute to their first house mother.
Some members of the fraternity said that they were hesitant about the possible change of name and that they didn't support the idea.
"As it is, it is a tribute to the first house mom on that street," said Josh Cox, Long Island junior. "And, house moms play such an important part in a fraternity house."
Hurley said that although members of the fraternity respected Gleason and had contributed money to a trust fund set up for his children, some members didn't think the name should be changed to Rockin' Ron Avenue.
"We don't want our mail coming to Rockin' Ron Avenue," he said. "It just doesn't seem like the most appropriate name."

High cholesterol at a young age may cause health problems later
By T.J. Johnson
fjohnson@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
Find yourself eating fast food every night? Can't remember the last time you ate a fruit or vegetable? Although many students might not think about it, having a high cholesterol level now can affect their health later in life.
Watkins Memorial Health Center is offering a discounted blood cholesterol test to students today and tomorrow to encourage students to take an interest in their health.
The test is available to all students for $10, a discount from the usual $15. Students also will be able to schedule a meeting with health center personnel to discuss their test results.
Rhonda Black of the Watkins lab office, said that students who were interested in having their cholesterol tested could walk in without an appointment and that results would typically be available the next day.
Cholesterol Test Numbers: What they mean
Desirable Borderline Undesirable
Total Cholesterol Below 200 200-240 Above 240
HDL Cholesterol Above 45 35-45 Below 35
LDL Cholesterol Below 130 130-160 Above 160
Randall Rock, chief of staff at Watkins, said that many college students do not realize that even at a young age, high cholesterol levels can occur.
source: Mayo Clinic Home Page Heather Fields / KANSAN
www.kansan.edu
"The plaques and blockages that result in cardiovascular diseases don't just appear at 55,65 or 75. They are an accumulation of years of bad dietary habits." Rock said. "There is a lot of fried food and fast food in the typical college diet."
In addition to bad eating habits, Rock said that genetics can play a part in cholesterol levels. He said that people who have a family history of high blood lipid levels should consider having their cholesterol checked.
People who are genetically predisposed to having high cholesterol can control their level by having their level tested and controlling it with medication. Rock said.
He said that college-age people should try to maintain a total cholesterol level of less than 200, with a level of HDL, or "good" cholesterol, of more than 35.
Ann Chapman, a registered dietitian at Watkins Health Promotions, said that anyone can reduce his level of LDL, or "bad" cholesterol by eating foods with monounsaturated fats such as peanut butter, nuts, olives and avocados, rather than fatty fried foods and dressings.
Anyone interested in receiving more information may contact Watkins at 864-9500.

Riverfront Mall may face big changes
By Heather Woodward hwoodward@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
The Riverfront Mall, as a haven for factory outlet stores, may become a store of the past.
Declining business and traffic caused Chelsea G.C.A., the former owner of the mall, to add office space to its lowest level and move the stores on that level upstairs. The gradual integration of office space, including Norell Services, Sunflower Cablevision and a temporary Lawrence Athletic Club facility, in the mall may be a hint of things to come.
Last month, Riverfront L.L.C., a group of local investors, purchased the mall from Chelsea, bringing new ideas about how to get more people shopping at the mall.
"Our challenge is to increase traffic and make the mall more viable," said Bill Newsome, a representative of Riverfront
L. L.C. "Our cornerstone belief remains the same, which is that the building is an extremely viable retail location. We've begun a new ad campaign that has been very well-received."
David Longhurst, general manager of the Riverfront Mall, said he was dedicated to maintaining some retail aspect in the mall.
"The lowest level of the mall will continue to house office space, and the top level is the most viable for retail," Longhurst said. "The real question is what will become of the middle level. Will it be 100 percent retail or 100 percent office space?"
Longhurst said that he did not like the idea of mixing office and retail space on the same floor, but said that if it happened, the floor would be divided into two separate wings.
Newsome said the stores on the second level could be consolidated in the west wing.
When the mall opened in April 1990, factory outlets were a relatively new phenomenon that shoppers were excited about. The closest outlet malls were hours away from Kansas City, and Lawrence seemed to be an ideal location.
"Typically outlet malls are located somewhere with highway visibility, but Lawrence wanted, as it does now, to focus on downtown," Longhurst said. "Ideally, outlet malls are located about an hour away from a major metropolitan area and act as a tourist attraction, while not taking away business from department stores in the city."
Longhurst said that business at the Riverfront Mall steadily increased until 1994 when changes in the industry and local market caused sales to decline. The Tanger Mall, 1035 N. Third St., opened in 1993 just off Interstate 70.
Tanger opened adjacent to the mall because it weakened the drawing power that the two malls could have had together." Longhurst said.
"It would have been better had
Having the former owners of the mall located so far away may have contributed to its decline. Newsome said.
"There's a difference between local ownership and national ownership," Newsom said. "Our group is made up of people who have a long, long history in Lawrence. We need to integrate the Riverfront Mall into downtown Lawrence."
The development of value shopping stores like Best Buy and Linens 'n' Things, which sell their products for lower prices, as well as the construction of outlet malls closer to Kansas City, such as the Great Mall of the Great Plains and an outlet mail in Odessa, Mo., also affected business, Longhurst said.

Alumna congratulates men's bowling team
I would like to extend my congratulations to Coach Mike Fine and the KU Men's Bowling Team on its national championship appearance this year.
KU bowling, while not well known on campus, was an important and enjoyable part of my undergraduate experience as a Jayhawk. Most people on campus probably do not realize what an accomplishment it is for KU to hold its own against the likes of Wichita State and West Texas State, perennial national champions in collegiate bowling. These players spend not only their time, but often much of their own money on their sport, usually for little recognition or glory.
Thanks also to the Kansan for covering their accomplishments this year.

'Turkish Republic' blurb ratifies illegal country
I am a graduate student from Cyprus. I am writing to complain about the column about Ocalan printed in the Kansan on Friday.
Everyone is entitled to their own opinions, and I would not want to argue the content of the article. But what I protest is the fact that the Kansan printed the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus as the country of origin of the author.
The TRNC is a state that the United Nations and the European Union do not recognize and have declared illegal. The only country in the world that recognizes it is Turkey, which has occupied half of the island of Cyprus since 1974. There are more than 2,000,000 soldiers from Turkey in Cyprus occupling the island.
Since 1974, there have been more than 200,000 refugees in Cyprus, including my family, and there are 1,619 people missing. My great aunt is missing, and my uncle was held as a prisoner of war in a Turkish prison for three months. He was tortured and almost died, and
he still has nightmares to remind him. He also sees the Turkish flag every day in occupied parts of Cyprus.
We lost everything because Turkey invaded our country. They took our houses, our land and even dared to declare the part of Cyprus they occupy an independent country.

United Nations recognizes one republic in Cyprus
I have read a column that was published in Kansan on Friday written by Husey in Sevay about the capture of Ocalan, the Kurdish leader.
Even though I disagree with my friend Huseyin on many points of his column, I respect his personal opinion.
The reason I am writing is to complain about the reference to the "Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus." There is only one Republic in Cyprus recognized by the United Nations, and that is the Republic of Cyprus. The "Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus" is an illegal state recognized only by Turkey and has been condemned by the UN resolutions. I am a refugee from Famagusta, which is being controlled by the Turkish occupation forces in north Cyprus right now, and any reference to a "Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus" by the Kansan is offensive.
Panikos Economides Famaausta, Cyprus, junior
My first point is against the claim that a Kurdish person is granted the same rights as any other Turkish citizen. Anything else I have read from international organizations, including Amnesty International, says the opposite. It is known that Turkey is one of the countries where human rights are violated continuously. Kurdish people are harassed, oppressed and persecuted. Their villages are burned down. People struggling for their freedom are tortured till death in the prisons, and others are forced to even leave the country.
Turkey's human rights record tarnishes arrest
I am writing to comment and express my disagreements in several points of Friday's column titled "Kurdish leader's capture helps stem tide of terror."
Kurds are struggling to obtain their independence. They are the largest minority in the world and the largest ethnic group without its own country. Kurds have their own distinct culture, and they have been in the area before even the Turks. The Kurds were promised their own state in the 1920 Treaty of Sevres, but Turkey forced a renegotiation of the treaty.
Ocalan was the leader of the Kurdish Workers Party, whose main purpose is the creation of a Kurdish state. How can he be described as a terrorist while the atrocities by the Turkish army are totally ignored? I don't know if the number of deaths attributed to him are right, but we should be realistic. The equipment and the trained manpower that the Turkish army has caused most of those deaths against Kurdish civilians. Human rights groups have criticized both sides. But one of those sides is the official army and police of a country.
Ocalan's arrest was the reason for a series of protest actions in 16 European cities. Why would thousands of people put their bodies on the line to aid a man wanted for terrorism? Turkish government and military has never been friendly to the Kurdish population but has rather tortured those people. I am afraid that with Ocalan's arrest, their operations against those people will be even easier.
By the way, if the Greek or Greek Cypriot government has given any kind of help to Oceanal, it is totally unclear. But if it actually provided asylum to him, that does not mean that it is the reason for the continuation of the existence of the group. The reason for its lasting is the continuing mistreatment of the Kurdish population and their determination to gain their independence.

Tolerance, appreciation could stop teen violence
Perspective
I think that everyone is aware of the recent tragedy in Littleton, Colo. The most deadly in a disturbing series of school shootings left one teacher and 14 stu-

deaths dead and 23 more people injured, some very seriously.
P. L.
The damage was done by two male students, ages 17 and 18. The boys were armed with two sawed-off shotguns, a semiautomatic 9mm rifle and a semiautomatic 9mm pistol. They also planted more than 30 rudimentary explosives at various locations around the school.
I think it's clear that the boys couldn't find the respect that they needed to survive emotionally and subsequently, physically. Initially, they probably tried to find respect in the traditional ways, through sports, girls, cars, etc. Failing there, they turned to alternative sources such as the occult and weaponry. When that didn't work, they snapped, and there apparently wasn't a support structure to save them or their victims: Quentin Tarantino meets Revenge of the Nerds.
Apparently, there were warning signs. Both boys had criminal records for breaking into a car. Both were members of a strange social circle called "The Trench Coat Mafia." The group reportedly dabbed in Satanism, guns, and explosives. They even had a web site that reflected their preferences.
Adolescence is a very difficult time, and there always will be more and less popular students. Those things will never change. However, there are some things that we as a society can change.
ditional sense, and both apparently took a lot of grief from the more popular kids, especially the athletes. It has been reported that the boys targeted athletes during their bloody rampage, although it seems that they weren't very picky about it. It also has been reported that they were laughing the entire time, apparently enjoying themselves in a warped sense.
Both boys apparently idolized Adolf Hitler, to the extent that they tried to learn German to emulate their hero. It has been reported that both boys often spoke in broken German in front of friends and family.
We can place less emphasis on things such as looks or athletic ability and appreciate people for other qualities they might have to offer, such as intelligence, generosity, or a sense of humor.
Seventeen families have lost loved ones, and countless other lives have been negatively impacted to various degrees. We have to ask why this happened and more importantly, what we can do to keep it from happening again.
Neighbors reported hearing the boys breaking glass in one of their garages on the nights leading up to the rampage. The glass would be packed into aluminum baseball bats, serving as hrapnel for their primitive explosives. Plans for the massacre dating back at least a year were found in one of the boys' bedrooms after the fact.
In general terms, we should be nice to and tolerant of others, despite the differences we might have.
Finally, there have been reports that the Jefferson County Sheriff's Department had received an anonymous tip that this type of thing was going to happen, although department officials are vehemently denying such reports.
According to the plans, the boys wanted to continue their shooting spree into the neighborhood surrounding the school, hoping to kill hundreds of people.
Neither of the boys was popular in the tra-
The damage has been done, and there is nothing we can do to change that.
If you can't be nice to someone for moral reasons, do it for practical reasons.
Between the likely possibility of copycat criminals and the easy availability of guns and explosives in our society, it could very well save your life.

Peace,unity can emerge from Littleton shooting
T the massacre in Littleton, Colo., hits close to home because I am a native of Colorado. Columbia High School is the stereotypical heart of suburbia, where
schools are free of gangs, violence and drugs — or at least in this type of setting, you are supposed to feel safe.
This is an area where I grew up playing in nearby Clement Park, and I never questioned my safety. Littleton is a community like any suburban neighborhood full of nuclear families. No danger ever would harm this community where

everybody gets along and neighbors converse while mowing the yard, right?
We all have seen the brutal pictures on CNN and heard the heart-wrenching stories from the students at Columbine High. We are faced with the realization that this could happen anywhere, often when least expected. And yes, it has happened to the perfect little community of Littleton.
The real questions are: Why is this all happening? Why would God let innocent teens be so brutally murdered at the hands of these feeble individuals?
of these nee be naive hastly tragic this realize how devastatingly tragic this atrocity is. I know it is going to take a long time for the investigation to be complete and for the community to come to grips with what has happened, but it is time to look at the good that can come from this tragedy.
One verse I remember from the New Testament of the Bible says, "God sends his children into the arms of evil, so they can experience evil's pain and then turn back to the ways of God."
I know people out there are asking. "How can this guy think of anything good from this horrible demonstration of violence?"
Well, folks, I promise that I am not jumping the gun or putting aside the situation at hand. Being an optimist, I must come up with something that will help me reason with what has happened to these teens and will allow me to sleep better. That something is the unity of the cliques in high schools across America.
I have faith that God is using this example to show the world that we all are created equal and that we need to treat one another in such a manner. It is a plain and simple fact that we need to love our neighbors and ourselves.
Both suspects thought that because the jocks and popular students treated them so poorly, they should stick together and become a part of something that was important to them. All they had to turn to were the negative aspects society has to offer. Adolf Hitler, Marilyn Manson's music, Satanic Web sites and violence seemed to be the only things that interested them. It seems that other students did not have time for these meaningless entities because they were all at social events with their friends, boyfriends and girlfriends. The two detached boys seemed to be forgotten through it all.
what it:
The suspects were a byproduct of how poorly students treat one another today. They had no friends outside of each other and seemingly had no one who sincerely cared for them. All they had was each other.
rooks, this is a time in our lives of selfishness and insecurity.
People are worried about their image and with whom they are seen. Life is too short not to take the time to get to know as many people as you can.
If you have your life in order and you see a person who is hurting inside, then it is time to start reaching out. The two suspects must have been beyond sick. They had to be so far gone by the time they decided to go on this rampage that there was no turning back. They must have been the most neglected, the most ridiculed students within that school because they did not receive an ounce of love.
It is time for students all across this nation to start binding with one another through love rather than hatred.
I have heard several interviews from Columbine students who said this was going to bring them all together and make them appreciate one another's special qualities. That is the attitude we all need to have.
Why must there be segregated groups in high schools today?
The suspects did not have the right to take lives because they were neglected. I am asking the question, "What if everyone treated one another as friends and occasionally spent time together?"
Life is fragile.
Never wait to tell the ones you love how you really feel because you may never get the opportunity again.
What if?

Coffee shops offer study havens
By Cynthia Malakasis Special to the Kansan
A lot of University of Kansas students think caffeine is an indispensable tool when studying, but that's not the only reason they choose coffee shops instead of libraries as their study environment.
"It seems people can concentrate better here than in the library, despite the noise and distractions," said Katie Flatley, Kansas City, Kan., sophomore, who works at Milton's Coffee & Wine, 920 Massachusetts St. "You can have coffee or a snack and get away from home and the roommates."
Studying is a top priority of many students who frequent these places. Some go for the coffee shop and bookstore atmosphere at Borders Books & Music, 700 New Hampshire St.
"It's like having a library that is also a fun place to hang out in," said Ryan Devlin, Overland Park senior, who works at Borders. "It's convenient being able to do research in a place where you can also get something to drink."
But not everyone sees coffee shops as a suitable place for studying.
"I wouldn't go there to study; it's not my ideal studying atmosphere," said Jessica
Papp, Chicago freshman. "It's more of a social setting for me."
Despite varying opinions on the studying environments, many agree that coffee shops are a cultural feature of Lawrence.
"It's something that's trickled its way down from big urban centers, like New York, and became popular in the Midwest," Devlin said. "It's a prominent feature in Lawrence, and I think more coffee shops should open."
Another group attracted to coffee shops is smokers.
"You cannot smoke and study in the library or in most other places," said Panayiotis Economides, junior from the Republic of Cyprus.
Students like coffee shops, but that feeling isn't always reciprocated. Some coffee shop employees get frustrated by student clientele.
"It's a pain when somebody comes here to study, and stays for three hours buying only one cup of coffee," said Andrew Jones, employee at The Java Break. 17.E 7th St.
However, because Lawrence is filled with college students with a lot of studying to do, the atmosphere will probably not change, especially with finals on the way.

Students turn to Clinton Lake for retreat
By Chris Hopkins chopkins@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
Students needing a retreat from studying can look no further than Clinton Lake, just west of Lawrence off of US Highway 40, for a great getaway.
Christine Aga, Overland Park sophomore, said she had spent time at Clinton Lake fishing and hiking and thought it was a good thing to have near the KU community.
Jerry Schecher, Clinton Lake park manager, said that he liked the park because it kept the town from getting too big.
"It's kind of a protected natural area near Lawrence," Schecher said. "It's about four miles away, and if you know the development in Lawrence, it's a good buffer against that."
The 7,000 acre park offers 16 miles of hiking and biking trails, 500 campsites, a
three-fourths mile self-guided nature trail, an archery range, horseshoe pits, picnic shelters, sand volleyball courts and a beach.
Schecher said that there was plenty of fauna to go with the facilities.
"We have a pretty good population of deer and a pretty good flock of turkeys," he said.
Schecher said that the campsites were situated on two bluffs above the lake and that half had water and electricity. Campsites with amenities costs $11 a night, without costs $5.
Lee Kennedy, manager of the Clinton Lake Marina, said that there was plenty of aquatic recreation at the park as well.
Kennedy said that that the Marina rented all kinds of boats, ranging from fishing boats to canoes, and are looking into other options.
"We'll have some Jet Skis and speed
boats this summer," he said.
There's also a restaurant on the water that will open in May, and the state will put in a second beach next to the Marina in September. Kennedy said.
Fishing boats are rented at $20 an hour or $100 dollars a day. Pontoon boats are $35-$50 an hour depending on size and canoes are $10 an hour or $50 a day.
The Marina also stores personal boats year-round.
Mike Fine is the recreation coordinator at the Jaybowl and also in charge of Wilderness Discovery, which rents camping equipment to students and faculty out of an office in the Jaybowl. Fine said most students probably go to Clinton or Perry Lake, a national park outside of Topeka. Other students have mentioned traveling to Arkansas or Missouri for outdoor recreation.
Lawrence's parks offer outdoor entertainment
Edited by Matt Gardner
Bv Joe McPeek
Special to the Kansan
People looking for outdoor entertainment have 37 area parks, sprawling over 3,500 acres. to choose from.
JOHN M. KENDRICK
The parks' attractions include swimming pools, hiking trails, and new sports recreation fields for soccer and baseball.
Ernie Shaw, superintendent of facilities and maintenance of City parks and recreation, said the parks were popular places for residents to spend their free time.
"As far as people reserving places for events, South Park downtown is probably the most requested. Broken Arrow, by Haskell (University), would probably be next," said Shaw. "Then Watson (Park) probably. The water slides always attract people. Next would be Centennial Park. We just got finished with a new shelter, restrooms and a path at that location."
Shaw said maintenance crews spend thousands of hours each year keeping every park clean and attractive.

South Park is located at Massachusetts and 12th Streets. Because it's not far from campus, it provides a popular place for activities. It offers multiple gazebos and shelters, plus open fields for sports or relaxing.
Watson Park, at 6th and Tennessee streets, is known
for its train engine and the Lawrence Aquatic Center. Shaw estimated the park draws about 1,000 people each day during the summer.
Devon Burneson and Megan Churchley, Englewood, Colo., sophomores,
spent a day this spring at Watson Park. The students said they hadn't been to a park for a while, but decided to enjoy the sunshine in the park they called the "train place."

By Kate Williams Special to the Kansan
It's 3 o'clock on a cloudy and humid Friday afternoon when Carolyn Richardson, Hutchinson freshman, and Mary Jo Johnstone, Winfield freshman, head toward downtown Lawrence.
They're on a shopping mission to find CDs, clothes and other items they cannot live without.
The trip gets off to a bad start when, for several blocks, they are stuck behind a car that is emitting large, billowing clouds of black smoke.
After cursing the driver of the pollution-mobile and stopping at an ATM so that Richardson could get cash, they finally head for their ultimate destination: Massachusetts Street.
The two girls bypass the first store they come to.
"That's where my grandma would go to buy me something." Richardson said.
They dodge traffic crossing the street to Love Garden, 9361/2 Massachusetts St.
"I can always find something here that I want," Johnstone said. "It's my favorite store in the whole world."
A cat lounges in a box inside the store and ignores the girls as Richardson goes for the Trip-Hop Electronic section and Johnstone digs through the new arrivals.
Richardson picked up *Progression Sessions* by L.T.J. Bukem and takes it to the counter where she listens to a few songs.
"If they have Bob Marley's Natural Mystic, I have to have it." Johnstone said.
Richardson also decides to buv her CD.
The girls progress down Mass Street toward another music store, 7th Heaven at 1000 Massachusetts St.
At 7th Heaven, Johnstone found a three CD collection of - what else — bluegrass. She has forgotten her discount card, and has to run to the car to get it before she buys the CD.
They stopped in Penny Annie's Sweet Shoppe at 845 Massachusetts St. to buy Gummi Bears and ice cream and then stand outside the window of the Casbah, 803 Massachusetts St., looking at the merchandise inside.
Inside Arizona Trading Co., 734 Massachusetts St., Johnstone tried on a pair of black sunglasses and a sequined red dress
hanging form the ceiling. She was supposed to attend a friend's fraternity formal at Kansas State that night and was in search of an extremely obnoxious dress to wear.
"I want to be able to say 'I'm sorry but I had to wear this because you gave me such short notice.'" she said but decides against buying the hideous dress.
As s.p.m. approaches and most of the shops begin to close, Richardson and Johnstone leave Mass Street.
And they have new CDs to listen to on their way home.

He took three days to move a century-old dogwood three feet. He was a horticulturist then, for a big-time Cape Cod garden, and he had to be exact—a historic view was at stake.
Now, it takes him about six minutes to make a cheesestead that won't last 30 seconds before it's eaten and gone. He is a cheesestead specialist now, for his own downtown restaurant, and he must be exact—a big time cheesestead is at stake.
"This isn't fast food," said Roy Crawford, owner of Wylind's.

bread loaf. "Nope,
it's not fast food at all."
Though the wait quickly becomes agonizing, the payoff is—in its most humble manifestation—about seven inches of Italian bread, cheese, marinated beef, onions and sweet red peppers. Crawford also sells sandwiches in larger sizes.
With tongs, Crawford places a wagonload of the peppers onto the sandwich. He wraps it in foil and hands it to an antsy customer.
It has about the heft of medium-sized torpedo.
It costs a mere $3.50, tax included.
"It's awesome," said Ryan Horton, Lea

Lugging the sandwich to the table, Horion finds himself lost in a forest of antique tables, cupboards and armories.
That's because Wylind's Cheesesteaks is located inside of Strong's Antiques, 1025 Massachusetts St.
"I'm happy to work with a nice business and a nice family," said Gary Strong, who
frequently dines on Wylind's soup or a vegetable sandwich.
The cheesesteaks are in the Sicilian style, Crawford says, made with marinated beef or chicken, and with barbecue or without.
Is it all homemade?
Crawford also offers his mother's coleslaw, a variety of doughnuts, soups three-bean salad, potato salad, coffee and choose-your-own-adventure submarine sandwiches.
"Absolutely," Crawford said adding that he buys the bread fresh from a local baker.
The widely-recognized Philadelphia cheesesteak, in which the sandwich is buttered and grilled and the peppers are green, isn't what Crawford's about.
"Where we lived, they had these Mom- and-Pop places that sold the Sicilian-style sandwich," he said. "We fell in love with them."

Casinos offer risky alternatives
By Tiffany Seeman
Special to the Kansan
Searching for a little excitement? Want a break from the norm? The Kansas City riverboat casinos might be the answer.
Stepping into Station Casino is like entering another city. It is a miniature version of the casinos that line the streets of Las Vegas. The Victorian-style decor and ceiling — painted an azure color — create an atmosphere in which time does not matter. Pictures of past winners line the walls.
"I like to go, because I would like to win a little money," said Susan Buck, Rogers, Ark., junior. "But you never know if you will win a bunch or lose a bunch. That's what makes it exciting."
Station Casino features two casinos with 3,000 slot machines and 170 table games. Table games include blackjack, craps, roulette and poker. But the entertainment
at Station Casino goes beyond gambling.
Six bars and 12 restaurants offer a variety of drinking and dining experiences. The choices include Kansas City barbecue, Italian, New Orleans, Mexican and seafood cuisine.
Arthur Bryant's Barbecue opened a second restaurant in the casino.
Another Kansas City tradition, The Phoenix Plano Bar, a renowned downtown jazz club, opened a satellite bar to give a Kansas City feel.
"I go for the cheap drinks," said Jeff Dreiling, Leawood junior. "It is a fun change of pace from Lawrence, and they have good drink specials."
Station Casino also houses an 18-screen movie theater with several live performances throughout the year.
Despite the entertainment the riverboat casinos offer, most students go with visions of striking it rich.
"I won a thousand bucks once and walked away with it," said Nate Zettel, Englewood, Colo., junior. "But eventually the boats caught up to me."
Station Casino also offers hotel accommodations.
"I see groups of students from MU and KU come here to celebrate special occasions," said Doug Pyle, doorman at the Station Casino hotel.
Pyle said that sometimes students would come to Kansas City to gamble and would end up staving in the hotel.
"For my 21st birthday, my friends and I went to Station Casino to celebrate and gamble," said Craig Gordinier, Topeka junior. "And it was just safer to stay at the hotel."
The Flamingo, Harrah's and The Argosy casinos also offer gambling activities and alternatives in the Kansas City area.

Commentary Final column gives thanks to inspirations
The day has come.
Armageddon. The Apocalypse. The end of the world.
The final column
This is it, folks. The last time my sometimes insightful, occasionally humorous and always asinine comments will grace the Kansan sports section.
Shed a tear. Break out the bubbly.
Jump for joy.
After two years of writing weekly columns, you might think I would have saved my best for last — some magnificent culmination of my infinite sports wisdom. A grand finale. Something with meaning and soul. Words to live by.
Think again.
That's not what this column is about.
I could use these final precious words to convey some deep, transcendental philosophical meanderings about the meaning of life and sports.

Maybe something about how fast your college years fly by and that you should make the most of every second you spend on this great campus, because it's finished before you know it.
But I have bigger plans for this final work.
Or maybe something about how baseball needs a salary cap, NASCAR is really fixed, and it's a travesty that Barry Switzer isn't in the College Football Hall of Fame.
It is time to give credit where credit is due.
It is time to say thanks, so bear with me.
To my roommates Dom and Matt
While the words of every column have been my own, the ideas, inspiration, motivation and encouragement are the manifestations of many people.
To my people from Chicago, Mike G. and Ian W.
Without the input from the two most hyper-critical, angry and sarcastic sports fans I know, I would have never had anything good to write about. You can't ask for two better guys to watch sports with.
I know my constant verbal barrage on the Bulls and Bears offended more than a few Windy City natives. Some even went far enough to accost me at a house party.
But if it makes you feel better, I was only trying to annoy these two.
To the whole Ohio Street Crew — Ben, Gaddis, Fawcett, Mack, Jesse, Rusty, Jim, Greg, Jake, and the one only "Kansas City" Williams.
They should all get their due. I have spent countless hours with these guys debating everything from Buffalo's recent draft picks, to Iowa football, to why the '88 Lakers would beat the '97 Bulls. More than once their ideas have found their way into my columns.
To the best professors at the journalism school — Susanne, Malcolm and Rick.
These three helped me more than they will ever know.
To the best sports writer I ever had the pleasure to work with, Jenni Carlson.
I will always be grateful.
To the kids I have promised for years I would mention their names in a column, the time has come. Liz Luck (thanks for the Eviian), Sara Anderson, Farmer, little Jen, Cash, Mike and Luke, Jeff T. MeCoy (1985 State of Kansas Twister Grand Champion), Steve Prince, Tommy F., and Zac Hemenway.
Finally, to my family and Nicolel
thanks for everything

Spring practice is done, Wegner is down and a juco star is coming to town.Welcome to...
The offseason
By Michael Rigg mtrigg@ukans.edu Kansan sportswriter
Spring practice for the Kansas football team ended yesterday very much the same way it began — with a serious injury to quarterback Zac Weimer.
Wegner broke the thumb on his right (throwing) hand in a conditioning drill last Thursday. Wegner's arm will remain in a cast for four to six weeks and is expected to be rehabilitated by the time the Javahawks open fall practice Aug. 6.
Coach Terry Allen said he expected the injury to have no effect on Wegner's time on the practice field.
"It is a very unfortunate injury for Zac," Allen said. "The doctors indicated the casting process went very well, and we don't anticipate any problems for Zac when we start practice in the fall."
Wegner was participating in a box jump drill, and he hit his hand against the box while lunging
tion from the three concussions he suffered in 1998. Wegner had to be cleared by his doctors before he was even allowed to participate in spring practice.
The spring drills marked a major milestone for Weiner's rehabilita-
Despite the injuries, Wegner has been positive about

game of the year — how fun is that?"
The injury couldn't come at a worse time for Wegner, who will be battling junior college transfer Dylan Smith for the starting job this fall. Allen said Smith would receive playing time this season if Smith learns the offense to Allen's liking.
"It shouldn't be a problem to learn the offense," Smith said. "The offense we ran in junior college was very similar."
Smith said he could do it.
Allen, meanwhile, has very high praise for Smith's ability.
"He could come in and compete for that job right now," Allen said.
However, Smith's academic difficulties will keep the quarterback at his home in Santa Monica until later in the summer. While Wegner is rehabilitating his thumb injury, Smith will be attending summer classes to achieve the criteria necessary for junior college transfers.

Kansas football coach
Terry Allen
In the wake of bad weather and the bad news the Kansas football team received about quarterback Zac Wegner's broken thumb, coach Terry Allen announced that spring practice is officially finished. The Jayhawks were scheduled to practice Tuesday, but a rainstorm forced Allen to cancel the practice. The cancellation means Kansas practiced 14 times this fall, one short of the 15 allotted by the NCAA.
Allen said the risks of an additional practice outweighed the benefits.
"We've reached the point of diminished returns," Allen said. "This far out from our last practice, I felt we would have too many relapses on assignments and increase the risk of injuries."
The Jayhawks final practice of the spring was April 21.
The team returns to campus on Aug. 6 for the start of two practices per day. Kansas opens its season Aug. 28 at Notre Dame.

Quarterback Zac Wegner, wide receiver Michael Chandler, outside linebacker Tim Bowers and nose tackle John

This will be Wegner's second-straight year in the leadership position. It will be the first season as co-captain for the remainder of the players. The captains were selected by a team vote.

Coach finds permanent home in Lawrence
Laid-back pole-vault teacher one of the best in the country
By Mike Miller
sports@kansan.com
Kansan sportswriter
Rick Attig began coaching long before he ever received a coaching job.
When the Kansas assistant track coach was a football player, and track and field athlete at Southeast Missouri State, Attig found he needed more help than the coaches there could give him.
"It was just a small school, and they had a head coach and a graduate assistant. I needed more help when I started throwing the javelin, so I started teaching myself and others in the process," he said.
Attig's teaching methods worked, and he began to branch out into other sports. This led him to become what coach Gary Schwartz calls, "One of the best pole- vault coaches in the country."
A young boy holding a flute.
During his 24 years as a coach, Attig has coached 25 All-Americans, 26 Big Eight/12 Conference Champions and two NCAA record breakers. He has coached seven male pole-vaulters who have jumped more than 18 feet — more than any other school.
Conjecture? Hardly.
And his athletes love him.
"We come here because we want to learn from Coach Attie, so sophomore Ashley Felinger said.
His rapport with athletes might be what makes him different. Sophomore All-American pole-vaulter Andrea Branson said that practices are never boring and always fun, thanks to Coach Attig.
"We'll be there for about five minutes, and then you look over at Coach Attig and he'll do something that'll crack you up," she said.
His routines are just his way to keep practices fun because of the workload. But he said he didn't know where his sense of humor came from.

"I'm not a real emotional person. I guess it's the German in me." Attig said.
A stoic Attig cracking jokes may make for laughs at practice, but sometimes his disposition creates the laughs.
"You can't ask him two questions at once. He gets flustered and won't let you talk to him unless he's figured out an answer. It's how I mess with Coach," said All-American senior Candy Mason.
It's all a part of his laid-back method.
"When I first started coaching, it just got to the point where I'd get so nervous that I wouldn't do the athletes any good. So I just said to myself, "This is stupid, I've got to relax." Attig said.
His laid-back nature got him into a little trouble three weeks ago when he went out to eat with some of his athletes on a Friday after a meet.
"I ate a steak, a big ol' salad and some other stuff," he said. The next day, Attig woke with stomach pains, but figured it was from the meal he had eaten the night before. The pain persisted on Sunday, until Monday night he said he felt so bad that he couldn't even eat dinner.
She called the doctor and described Attig's symptoms.
The doctor also asked some of my symptoms.
"They brought me in, took care of it, and the next day I was fine. A little hungry though." Attis said.
This amazed his athletes who were without their coach for only one practice.
for only one practice.
"If I 'go home, A different breed of man." Branson said.
he a horse. A different breed of man," Branson said.
His methods and work ethic have ensured him a job for as long as he wants to coach. Attig said that people along the way have dropped hints about head coaching jobs elsewhere, but he insisted that he was happy in Lawrence.
It's a great place to raise a family. He said.
Both his children grew up here and have followed in their father's footsteps. His son, Garrett, is a junior and polevaults for the Jayhaws. His daughter, Marci, will graduate from high school this year. Though knee surgeries have kept her from competing in track since her sophomore year, her father said he thought that she would excel in diving.
This kind of instinct translates into what could be Attig's coaching philosophy.
"I don't coach for money. I don't know anyone who does," he said.

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (April 29)
Let your creative talents come out this year. Pressure you're under in May causes a change in June. Make plans to build in August and heed an older friend's advice in October. Take action to settle a dispute in November and find the answer to a secret question in December. By February your career should be stable, although different than what you expected. Maybe better, financially at least. Insider information brings abundance next April.
Aries (March 21-April 19): Today is a 5.
Group efforts might be thwarted today, but you can find a way around the problem. The breakout has something to do with money, most likely, as in, there’s not quite enough of it to do what you want. But that’s not a barrier. It’s an opportunity to start getting creative.
Taurus (April 20-May 20): Today is a 5
This would be an excellent day to join forces with a person who's powerful, charismatic, compassionate and action-oriented. You have a tendency to get stuck sometimes. Today you need to team up with someone who will push you to take action.
Gemini (May 21-June 21): Today is a 5
Gemini (May 21- June 21): Today is a 5
You could be sailing along today, thinking you’re invincible, when whapl You run right into a problem you don’t know how to solve. People are asking you to put up or shut up, but don’t lose heart. If you don't know what to do, ask a friend who does.
Cancer (June 22- July 22); Today is a 6
Reschedule your date for tomorrow night. Your place will be more the way you want it to be then. You may not have lots of money by then anyway. Look like you'll probably spend it fixing up your place.
Leo (Julv 23-Aug. 22): Todav is a 5
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Today is a 5
Looks like there could be a disruption at your house. Is somebody trying to teach you how to see life from another point of view? Too bad. Your mind is already made up. Schedule your mind-altering conversation for another time.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Today is a 5
Some days you feel pretty smart, but today you may feel like a dummy for a while, because the problem you're up against is outside your area of expertise.
The way you handle the situation is what's important.
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Today is a 6
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Today is a 6 Looks like you want to spend some serious money. You're scooting up to the idea, kind of checking things out. Don't make your move quite yet, however. You need to do a little more research.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Today is a 6
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Today is a 6
You're becoming a lot more powerful than you were before. You'll stop fiddling around with minute details and get into making something important happen. And you probably know just what, too. But move slowly.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Today is a 6
Looks like something you've been trying to learn
is finally going to click into place. That doesn't necessarily mean things get easier. They could get more difficult for a while, as you start practicing this new skill.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Today is a 7 You and your friends could decide to do something outrageous. It could be in a work setting, such as taking on a project bigger than anything you've ever tackled before. Or it could be personal, like the bunch of you going off to the Andes. The first consideration is finances. There's not enough money. Now that you know it, you know what you have to do first.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb.18): Today is a 4
Things continue to go your way as you breeze through life, with one minor little exception. Something that's going on at home is all messed up. You, who are so glorious, so wise, can't figure out how to solve this one silly little problem. You know what? You may have to call in an expert. Go ahead and do it.
P
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Today is a 6
2
This would be a good day to put up provisions for the weekend. Have you got a trip planned? If not, why not? Looks like there will be pretty good conditions for travel, although there are a few minor complications. If you do a little planning ahead, you can minimize those. Doing so is highly recommended.

Winless Wizards hire 1990 World Cup coach
Doug Newman said at a news conference. "He has played and coached at every level of the game in this country, and there is no doubt in my mind that he will instill the confidence our team needs to be successful." Newman said.
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The Kansas City Wizards, who haven't won a Major League Soccer game since Sept. 5, have turned to the coach who helped another team break an even loner drought.
Bob Gansler, who in 1990 took the U.S. to its first World Cup since 1950, was named the Wizards' new coach yesterday. That announcement came just before the Wizards lost 1-0 to the Columbus Crew, their fifth shutout loss of the year and their eighth in a 10-game losing streak dat-
Gansler, 57, succeeds interim head coach Ken Fogarty, who had replaced for Ron Newman when Newman resigned April 14. Kansas City was 0-4 with Newman and 0-3 with Fogarty, who coached yesterday's game while Gansler observed the team.
The Wizards (0-7) could use some confidence — and some goals. They've scored just two this year.
Preki Radosavjevic, the team's time leaking scorer with 40 goals in MLS' first three seasons, hasn't scored yet. Neither have forwards Digital Takawira (28 goals in three seasons) and Mo Johnston (23).
Newman led the Wizards to the MLS Western Conference title in 1997 and to the playoffs in 1996. But they slipped to last place in 1998, losing their last three games and finishing 12-20.

SEATTLE — A woman is suing Seattle Mariners pitcher Mark Leiter for $6 million, accusing him of punching her in the mouth, kicking her and putting out a cigarette on her arm during their relationship.
Sheila O'Connell filed the lawsuit Tuesday in U.S. District Court in Chicago, where she maintains she and Leiter had a relationship from 1996 through September 1997. Leiter pleaded the allege.
Mariner pitcher sued for $6 million by woman
The lawsuit contends that during their relationship, Leiter became jealous of O'Connell's contact with other men and began physically and verbally abusing her.
Leiter "knew that his conduct of throwing Sheila about, punching her in the mouth and face, shaking her head, knocking her down to the ground and kicking her, carried the risk of serious bodily harm," O'Connell's lawyers said in the lawsuit.
"I do know this woman, it's unfortunate she filed this lawsuit. There's no truth to the allegations," he said before Tuesday night's rame in Detroit.
Leiter denied the claims.
The lawsuit also said Leiter extinguished a cigarette on her arm during the affair.
Leiter, who was married at the time,

Officials still examining beaned ball player case
WICHTA — Missouri Valley Conference officials continued their investigation yesterday into an incident in which a University of Evansville player was struck in the face by a baseball in a game against Wichita State.
V
Anthony Molina of the University of Evansville was hit as he stood at least 15 feet from home plate in a
GOAT
game last Friday.
Nomar Garciapara and Jason Varietek each added two RBI for Boston, which avoided being swept at the Metrodome for the first time since 1994. Trot Nixon, Boston's No. 9 hit, homered and scored four runs.
The pitcher, Ben Christensen, has been suspended pending a Missouri Valley Conference investigation of the incident. MVC commissioner Doug Elgin issued a brief statement yesterday saying the investigation was continuing. His St. Louis office said no ruling was expected yesterday.
The Twins hurt themselves with three errors, two wild pitches and a passed ball, as they finished their homestand at 2-5. Minnesota pitchers issued six walks, including three to Nixon.
Rapp (1-1) allowed one run and six hits, while walking two and striking out one in his fourth start for the Red Sox. Both Rapp and Offerman were signed away from Kansas City as free agents this offseason.
Molina has filed assault charges against Christensen, saying the pitcher beamed him on purpose. Molina suffered fractures to three bones around his left eye when he was hit during warmups before the game against the seventh-ranked Shockers in Wichita.
Molina filed assault charges against Christensen with Wichita police. In the police report, Molina noted that he had homered twice off of Christensen in his career, the last of which came one year ago Monday. Wichita State coaches have said the pitch was accidental.
MINNEAPOLIS — Jose Offerman drove in three runs and Pat Rapp pitched six strong innings as the Boston Red Sox defeated the Minnesota Twins 9-4 yesterday.

Underdog 'Hawks rely on 'intensity'
By Melinda Weaver
Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas men's tennis team will enter the Big 12 Conference tournament as an underdog, but it is a role in which the No. 50 Jayhawks have been successful in the past.
Kansas, 11-7 overall and 3-5 in the conference, is the sixth seed in the tournament for the second year in a row. Last season, the team defeated third seed Oklahoma in the opening round
The Jayhawks will play No. 22 Texas & M (14.5, 6-2) tomorrow at its home court in College Station.
The two teams met April 11 in Lawrence, and Texas A&M came away with a 5-2 victory.
The Aggies swept the doubles matches, and only Kenny Powell and Rodrigo Echagaray put together singles wins.
However, the match was much closer than that. Luis Uribe, Ed Dus and Alex Barragan all lost tie-breakers in their first sets, each losing 7-6, 6-3.
"We were a couple of tie-breakers away from beating Texas A&M in the first meeting." Powell said. "Now, we have more experience and have put more hard work into it. We know not to back off when we are close but to just finish it." Coach Mark Riley said the
Coach Mark Riley said the team could beat
KANSAS TENNIS
Texas A&M if it could play better doubles.
"In our last meeting, we played horrible doubles," Riley said. "We have to assert ourselves in doubles right away. The intensity level has to be high."
The loss to Texas A&M came in the midst of a four-match losing streak in which Kansas lost to No. 7 Texas 5-2, Texas A&M, No. 9 Baylor 7-0 and No. 32 Texas Tech 5-2.
Kansas ended the season on a winning note Saturday by defeating Oklahoma State 5-2.
Kansas was able to win the doubles point for the first time in five matches with the combinations of Powell-Luis Uribe, Echagaray-Barragan and Quentin Blakeney-Brian Majer.
Powell, Barragran, Echagaray and Micah Zomer had singles victories.
"We're better off than we were a week ago," Riley said. "I think we are where we need to be. I feel like we can compete and do well in the tournment."
Since the Big Eight adopted a team format for the conference championships in 1993, Kansas has never lost a first-round matchup. In their 7-0 streak, the Jayhawks have defeated opponents 25-2.
This year, the Jayhawks face the challenge of trying to beat Texas A&M on its home courts, but Riley does not think that will be a problem.
Kansas captured three Big Eight titles from 1994-96 but have never won a Big 12 title. The Jayhawks and the Aggies have met twice before in tournament play, splitting the results. In 1997, Kansas won 4-1 in the quarterfinals, and in 1998, the Aggies beat Kansas 4-0 in the semifinals.
"Playing against the home crowd will pick up our intensity level," Riley said. "I'm sure we'll come out and play our best match of the season due to the environment. Some people think playing on the road is an advantage because you have more focus, so maybe playing at home will affect Texas A&M a little."
Powell, 12-6 this spring, won nine of his first ten matches before hitting a four-match slump. He has won three of his last four. No. 34 Uibe, 7-12 this spring, has lost his last eight in a row.
Riley said the responsibility lies on the seniors to lead the team to victory.
Powell said he and Uribe were ready for the challenge.
"We are fired up and have been working hard." Powell said. "For Luis and I, this could be our last college match, at least the last team match. We plan to work harder than we have all year."
If Kansas wins Friday, it will play the winner of the Baylor-Oklahma match Saturday.
NFL great speaks out against evil in America
Edited by Aerica Veazey
The Associated Press
TOPEKA — Retired Chiefs running back Marcus Allen used the floor of the Kansas House and Senate to speak out against an "evil environment" plaguing America and to urge adults to pay more attention to their children.
The Kansas Legislature honored the pro football Hall of Fame-bound Allen yesterday, adopting a resolution enumerating his successes during a 16-year career with the Oakland Raiders and Kansas City Chiefs, and his charitable work.
Allen told solemn audiences in both houses that he wants to be a voice for reason, good and justice in a world in which there is too much evil. He received standing ovations before and after his remarks in both chambers.
"We have to give them tim; we have to give them love — above all, love and guidance and support. And it takes more than just a family. It takes a community to raise kids," he said.
He said everybody must pay more attention to young people.
He referred to last week's shootings at a Littleton, Colo., high school.
"It scares me," Allen said,
"When I hear there is information on the Web site, on the Internet, about how to make a bomb.
'Hawks lose to'Cats,13-3 prepare for weekend series
Making a better, safer world starts with children, Allen said — "embracing them, encouraging them, and leading them in the right direction. Giving them the strength to clear the hurdles they have to clear in life" is the starting point.
"I just had to say that," Allen said. "It was on my heart."

In what served as a tune-up for this weekend's Big 12 Conference series with Kansas State, the Kansas baseball team spun off track as it was defeated 13-3.
The game, technically a Wildcat home game, was played in Wichita at Lawrence-Dumont Stadium where the Wildcats (20-23, 6-14) dominated from start to finish.
annually and this season the nonconference games fell on Kansas State's home cycle.
Renovations on the Wildcats' stadium have forced the team to play its home games all across the state. Tonight, it was Wichita's turn to host K-State's "home game."
The 'Hawks (11-34, 4-23) managed three runs on just four hits but committed two costly errors in the defeat.
Every year, the 'Hawks and Wildcats schedule two non-conference games in addition to their regularly scheduled conference meetings. The contests alternate
The loss keeps Coach Bobby Randall at 399 career wins, one shy of the 400-win milestone. If Randall gets the win this weekend, it will make him the fifth active coach in the Big 12 with 400 wins.
The two teams will again lock up this weekend when the Wildcats come to Lawrence for three games. The series will be the Jayhawks' final conference series of the season. Game one will begin Friday night at 7.

An afternoon spring breeze rattles the blinds in a Jayhawk Tower apartment. Ali Brox is napping peacefully, her English book laying open on the desk nearby.

"Some reporter wants to do a story about you," her roommate says.
It isn't the first time sports have interrupted Brox's daily life, and it certainly won't be the last.
If Brox's name sounds familiar, it may be because the Shawnee sophomore scored three points and

grabbed a rebound against the Butler Bulldogs Dec. 5 at Allen Fieldhouse. If Ali Brox doesn't ring any bells, it could be because those are her only career statistics — walkons don't tend to grab much playing time on a Top 25 women's basketball team.
"I knew my games were going to be during
As she was sitting around Ellsworth Hall during the first two weeks of her freshman year, Brox learned that a group of students in her hall planned on trying out for the rowing team. She had never rowed before, but couldn't picture herself not playing a sport. So Brox decided to give it a try.
Brox: Walk-on for Kansas basketball and varsity rower
As she had feared, she didn't make the basketball team. Instead, she spent the year on the novice rowing team gaining experience.
practice for the most part," she said. "I've lived in Kansas my whole life and dreamed about being a Jayhawk. It was a great experience."
Brox was the only walk-on who played for the women's team last season.
But Brox's athletic year hasn't finished yet, and now, she's not relegated to the sidelines.
Her true love was basketball, but she didn't know if she was good enough to walk on to the Javahawk team her freshman year.
Last fall, Brox earned a seat in a varsity boat, but told rowing coach Rob Catloth she was going to give basketball one more shot.
IBS
She also is a member of the varsity rowing team. A team that is attempting to qualify for its first NCAA Women's Rowing Championship in only its fourth year as a varsity sport.
"It was tough learning a new sport, but I really began to enjoy it," she said.
The Jayhawks will travel to Madison, Wis., this weekend to compete against 21 schools in the Midwest Association of Rowing Colleges Championships. Kansas was ranked No. 24 in this week's national coaches' poll, and could move into the top 20.
Coach was very understanding; she said. With a good couple days of tryouts, Brox quickly found herself committed to year-round athletics. The fall rowing season ended and she reported to the basketball team, which already had begun practice. Then, after a grueling hoops schedule, she had two weeks of relaxation before heading to New Orleans with the rowing team at spring break.
Fifteen schools qualify for the Rowing Championships in Sacramento, Calif., which are from May 28 to 31. Those who don't receive bids will vie for spots in another tournament, the Lexus Cup, May 21-23 in Tennessee.
During her high school career, Brox played softball and basketball, and ran cross-country at Shawnee Mission Northwest High School.
"We feel very confident," said Shana Burton, Menona, Iowa, senior, who rows in the varsity four with Brox. "We're putting nationals in the back of our minds. That's our goal, but we just have to concentrate on rowing well."

Las Vegas 'business' jaunt a gamble for Minnesota coach
The Associated Press
ST. PAUL, Minn. — A $9,100 "business" trip to Las Vegas by Minnesota basketball coach Clem Haskins, three assistant coaches and their spouses is being questioned in an auditing review.
The trip was ostensibly for a coaches' seminar, but a university auditor found no evidence that any such event took place, according to memos written earlier this year to top university officials, including President Mark Yudof.
The coaches later told an auditor the trip was a postseason "debriefing" but presented no documentation to support the claim, according to Gall Klatt, associate vice president in the university's department of auditing. Auditors concluded it wasn't a legitimate business expense.
A booster group paid for the trip, and coaches stood to avoid income taxes by declaring the travel was
business-related, Klatt said.
When auditors raised questions, the coaches instructed university bookkeepers to change payroll records to add the value of the trip to their incomes. Klatt said.
In the past, the trips have been

OLD DENNES
Nils Hasselmo, according to the audit review.
But the coaches could be taxed for the benefit, or the university could seek reimbursement because such expenditures for spousal travel aren't allowable under university policy, the review said.
Details of the audit were reported today by both the Saint Paul Pioneer Press and the Star Tribune of Minneapolis, who obtained the information through freedom-of-information requests.
The university already is investigating allegations from a former office manager who said she wrote or helped write more than 400 papers for basketball players.
The 1997 trip also included an improper charge for a clothing purchase that totaled nearly $300 and could have charged to the university twice — once by submitting an individual receipt and later when the same charge was included in the hotel bill that was repaid.
Haskins' attorney, Ron Zamanksy, had no comment on the trip or the audit findings. Yudof's office referred all questions to his chief of staff, Tonya Moten Brown, who said the university president is aware of the problem and plans to address it.

Sanders' troublesome toe mended

IRVING. Texas—Even surgery has managed to further cloud the mystery of Deion Sanders' left big toe.
Sanders underwent surgery to repair the troublesome toe in New York City yesterday, but it remained unclear when the Pro Bowl cornerback and punt returner will be ready to take the field again.
Cowboys owner and general
Cowboys own manager Jerry Jones said because the case of Deion's damaged digit is unique, it would be inappropriate.
ate to establish a projected return date.
CHEESE BEEF
"The surgery was performed to explore) and repair what Dr. (William) Hamilton described as a 'rare and unusual variation of turf toe,'" Jones said in a release from Cowboys headquarters.
"The doctor has informed us that it is very difficult to compare Deion's condition to that of any other athlete."
Hamilton is the specialist who performed the operation.
Sanders injured the toe in the first period of the Cowboy's 35-28 victory against the Arizona Cardinals Nov. 15 in Tempe. He played briefly in the next game against Seattle, and then was out until the Cowboys' playoff loss to Arizona on Jan. 2. Dallas went 2-3 during the five full games Sanders missed.
Team doctors said at the time that there was nothing that could be done to help the toe except to wait. Wait they did, and Sanders said he was ready to play just in time for the Pro Bowl on Feb.7.
The big question, of course, is whether Sanders and his toe will be ready for either the start of training camp of July 26 or the season opener on Sept.12.
"We'll basically prepare the team as if he's not going to be

Cowboy's owner and general manager
Jones said the team was not caught off guard by the operation.
"The surgery was prescribed at this time—and not an earlier date
this time — and not an earlier date
— because an extensive evaluation

had to first take nausea. "Jones said.
When it was clear that Sanders was not going to be able to perform at his usual level, Sanders and the team opted for surgery. Jones said.
The late decision could explain why the issue of depth at cornerback wasn't dealt with in the draft.
Kevin Smith, who was expected to be phased out, and Kevin Mathis are the remaining cornerbacks when Sanders is out.
"We have great confidence in the abilities of Kevin Smith and Kevin Mathis," team spokesman Rich Dalrymple said.
How the injury will affect Sanders' ongoing contract negotiations is unclear, and Jones refused to discuss the issue. Sanders reportedly is seeking a five-year deal worth a $50 million, including a $10 million bonus.
Sanders' agent, Eugene Parker, did not return a call from The Associated Press.

Fred Phelps's grandson, 9-year-old Joseph Phelps, protests on the lawn of Allen Fieldhouse before Desmond Tutu's speech earlier this month.
Laramie, Wyo., woke slowly to a frigid, overcast morning the day the Rev. Fred Phelps was scheduled to arrive. Members of the national media, encamped to cover the Matthew Shepard murder trial, trickled out of their trailers and onto the lawn of the Albany County Courthouse, carrying Styrofoam cups of steaming coffee.
Inside the courthouse, lawyers were preparing to try Russell Henderson, 21, for first-degree murder in the beating death of Shepard.
Outside, two minivans containing Topeka's Westboro congregation pulled up and the group solemnly filed out of the vans and into an area fenced off for their demonstration. Cameramen and reporters gathered around the fence and began firing questions at the picketers.
"Why have you come. Rev. Phelps?"
Phelps quoted scripture.
Phiopes quoted scripture,
"Why do you preach hate?"
"Why do you think Matthew Sheppard is in hell?" Phelps quoted scripture.
Why do you preach hate?
Phelps quoted scripture.
Through the crowd, I made my way to the fence. With a 10-foot "dead zone" between us, I asked the Reverend a question:
Rev. Phelps, who's going to take over your church when you're gone?
his dialogue just a tad?"
You've been the leader for many years, I was wondering ...
"Foolish question."
There won't be a leader after your gone?

KU student charged with selling fake IDs
The Office of the Douglas County District Attorney has issued a summons for KU student in connection with a case of false identification cards being manufactured at the Alpha Tau Omega fraternity house, 1537 Tennessee St., said District Attorney Christine Tonkovich.
The student, a member of the fraternity, is to appear 3 p.m. June 7 in Douglas County District Court, 111 E. 11th St., to face charges of dealing in false identification documents.
Tonkovich said her office had opted not to issue a warrant for the student's arrest.
"Rather than arrest him, he is going to turn himself in," she said.
Police originally found the equipment
used for making false drivers licenses Jan. 15 in a room at the fraternity house while the police were there investigating an unrelated report.
Kansas City wrestler injured in fight at bar
A Kansas City, Kan., resident needed 43 sitches in his head and face after a fight about a wrestling match with another man at about 11:30 p.m. Wednesday at Coyote's night club, 1003 E. 23rd St., said Sgt. George Wheeler of the Lawyer Police Department.
Police took a report from the injured man while he was being treated at Lawrence Memorial Hospital.
According to the 6-foot,264-pound man, the fight happened after a professional wrestling exhibition at the club.
The men, who were both professional wrestlers, were arguing because one of them had canceled their scheduled match. A fist fight between the two ensued, Wheeler said.
"It was part of a personal grudge match," he said.
Police went to the club but were unable to locate the other man, who was described as 6-feet tall and 270 pounds.
A hospital representative said that the injured wrestler was released at 1:56 a.m.yesterday.
Six KU students caught in bars without valid IDs
Six KU students were issued notices to appear in court on suspicion of possessing false identification, said Sgt. George Wheeler of the Lawrence Police Department.
Three of the students received notices for unlawful use of a driver's license and minor in possession of alcohol about 11:30 p.m. Wednesday at The Wagon Wheel, 507 W. 14th St.
Two students received notices for unlawful use of a drivers license and minor in possession at about 11:30 p.m. Wednesday at The Jahwah Cafe. 1,340 Ohio St.
One student received a notice for unlawful use of a drivers license and minor in possession at about 1:30 a.m. yesterday at A-B's Bar, 129 E. 10th St.
The violations were discovered during routine bar checks, Wheeler said.

Benefit for Rockin' Ron fails to draw big crowd
The Rockin' Ron benefit concert did not draw the number organizers were hoping for, said George Vogel, who helped out together the event.
"We didn't get as much response from the fraternity and sorority crowd that had told us they would probably attend," he said.
The rock 'n' roll show Wednesday night at the Granada, which featured four local bands, was in memory of Ron "Rockin" Ron" Gleason, a bus driver for the Lawrence Bus Co. who died in February from a heart attack.
Vogel estimated that about 100 to 150 people showed up.

On the brighter side, Vogel said some students who used the bus handed contributions to bus drivers last week for Gleason's memorial fund.
John Bode, Lawrence resident, who played Wednesday night in the Lonesome Houndogs, said that it was an enjoyable night even though the turnout wasn't what he expected for its publicity.
"There was no doubt that the people who went there had a good time," he said.

Greeks will wash cars to help finance Saferide
Several greek organizations will scrub for funds tpday to benefit S Safefer.
Greek Marketing Team, Greeks Advocating the Mature Management of Alcohol (GAMMA), and Junior Greek Council will wash cars at the Lied Center parking lot from noon to 6 p.m. today. The car wash is free, but donations will be accepted for Saferide, a student service that provides a free, safe and sober rides for students.
"Because we (Greek Marketing Team) are a young, reorganized group, we were looking to do a project that we can get a lot of support for and a lot of people involved in," said Erin Carlson, co-chairperson of Greek Marketing Team. "We chose an organization that we felt many students feel strongly about and would like to show their support for."
Saferide is paid for through student fees but always needs extra funding.
"We wanted to do something nice to show our appreciation for a service that's often taken for granted," Carlson said.
Through the sponsorship of six sororities, the car wash has already raised $350. The groups are hoping to raise at least $150 more on Friday.

As of yesterday, the National Weather Service forecast called for a high in the low 70s and plenty of sunshine tomorrow.
"Weather means everything," said Dunehoo, who was busy yesterday preparing for the event. "It's the difference between twisting your ankle on a wet spot and having a great time. Even if you don't like the bands, it's fun to play in the sun."
The free concert, which will start at noon and run until about 6 p.m. on the west side of Campanile hill, will feature headliner HUM, local bands Frogpond, Panel Donor, Son Venezuela and Starsky, winner of KJHK 'K farmer's Ball.
SUA's Rec-A-Palooza planned for fun's sake
A golf course will be constructed in front of the Kansas Union today.
SUA is sponsoring Rec-A-Palooza, an event that will include miniature golf, free popcorn and snow cones and musical entertainment provided by Sugar Sly and the Strut. The event will run from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m.
Howard Lubliner, SUA recreation coordinator,
said the agent was created simply for the sake of fun.
"We just wanted to have a fun, random recreation event to enjoy a summer day," he said.
The event was originally planned for last Friday but because of rain it was rescheduled for today.
Among the highlights on the putt-putt course is a hole in which the putter must wear goggles from Watkins Memorial Health Center that are supposed to reproduce the vision of an intoxicated person.

Police track stolen tuba, make arrest

The tuba was checked out Oct. 16. A faculty member in the department of music reported the tuba stolen March 31 after he saw the instrument for sale on the Internet, Mailen said.
A 25-year-old former KU student was arrested in connection with the theft of a tuba from the department of music, said Sgt. Troy Mailen of the KU Public Safety Office.
The faculty member was searching the Web for instruments to buy, when he came across the tuba advertised on a Web site for Olathe Band Instruments.
"It was a fairly unique tuba," Mailen said.
After the faculty member confirmed that the department's tuba was missing, he reported the theft to police.
The Olathe vendor told police that he had obtained the tuba, a Kalison Double CC, from a Lawrence pawn shop. Police contacted the pawn shop and found that the name on the shop's receipt matched that of the student who originally had checked out the instrument.
"He left a paper trail a mile wide," Mailen said.
Police questioned the man, which court records list as a Lawrence resident, on April2.
"He said he needed money and couldn't afford to get it out of hock." Mailen said.
The man was asked to come into the KU Public Safety Office again for questioning Wednesday. Upon his arrival, he was served a warrant and taken to the Law Enforcement Center, 111 E. 11th St., said Lt. Schuyler Bailey of the KU Public Safety Office.
He was booked into jail at 1:30 p.m.
Wednesday but was released at 2:04 p.m.
after posting $1,000 bond.
According to the Office of the University Registrar, the man attended the University in Fall 1996 and Spring 1998.
The tuba, which was valued at $3,500, was returned to the department of music by the Olathe instrument shop.
"The band shop voluntarily turned custody of the instrument over," Mailen said. "We can't seize the property because that would essentially create a second victim."
The man's first appearance in court is scheduled for 3 p.m. May 13 at the Douglas County District Court, 111 E. 11th St.

Partisan KU groups clash
Hate crime laws, Kosovo top issues at SLAB debate
By Chris Hopkins chopkins@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
The KU Young Democrats and College Republicans debated last night, and, believe it or not, some consensus was reached.
Four students from each of the groups debated five issues ranging from concealed weapons to public transportation in front of 15 audience members.
Despite partisan barriers, the groups managed to reach a consensus right away. Both groups said that saving Social Security should be a Congressional priority, although both groups said their respective parties thought of saving surpluses from the program first.
The next topic, spurred by the recent tragedy at Columbine High School in Littleton, Colo., caused a more hotly contested debate.
The debate was heated on most topics, but was put on by the Student Legislative Awareness Board mostly to open a free exchange of ideas and to have fun.
While Theryn Spomer, KU Young Democrats member, said that a gun owner was two-thirds more likely to be killed by a firearm, Tara Kelly of College Republicans said that crimes against people had been halved in communities with concealed weapons laws.
Tim Burger, College Republicans member, said that because the guns
were purchased illegally, gun laws would have had no impact upon the massacre.
The groups found common ground again in saying that ground troops needed to be sent to Kosovo quickly to end the conflict.
"A secure Europe is a key to United States national security," said Michael Young, KU Young Democrats member.
The Republicans said the situation was closer to that of Vietnam than the Democrats would admit.
"I am sure Slobodian Milosevic just shakes in his boots at the approach of the Dutch," said Tom Moore, former SLAB campus director and moderator of the debate.
Both groups again agreed when discussing whether public transportation in Lawrence was a good idea. While both thought it was, College Republicans said that it just wasn't feasible because of the start-up costs, including bringing current buses up to code.
Young said that thanks to a grandfathering system, which would allow old buses to be used, and the fact that the federal government would match University expenditures four times over, public transportation was possible.
The final topic discussed was hate crime legislation, which the Democrats supported and the Republicans were against.
"It's prepositional for anyone to say that hate is a right." Young said.
say that hate is a right. Young soldier Kelly said that hate crimes were too difficult to prove and that absolute motive was impossible to determine without being able to read defendants' minds.
Burger said that such measures could be taken too far against lesser offenses, such as an instance last

year, when someone wrote "fag" on a Queers and Allies poster.
"Yes, that's in poor taste," he said. "Should they be expelled for that? No."
John Teeple, Overland Park graduate student and Young Democrats member, said that he didn't always tow the party line.
"I don't really agree with either side on some issues," he said.
He said that, for instance, he wasn't sure if ground troops in Yugoslavia was such a good idea.

Regents director faces job changes
Legislature to decide restructuring of board
By Katrina Hull Special to the Kansan
The Kansas Board of Regents, which governs the state's six public universities, hired a national search firm last June to find a new executive director. Depending on the fate of higher education, the position could change drastically in the next few months.
In the wrap-up of the 1999 legislative session, Kansas lawmakers finally will decide if higher education will be overhauled, abolishing the current board and creating a new system of governance and a new job description for the executive director.
A House-Senate conference committee unanimously agreed Tuesday on a restructuring compromise that is awaiting final approval by both legislative chambers. Gov. Bill Graves has said he would sign the proposal.
"There is a desire to wait and see what is going to happen with restructuring," said Barbara Conant, director of communications for the Regents. "Under normal circumstances it
"The success of it is based on the people involved in making it work. It's vitally important that all people communicate."
Thomas Bryant Regents interim executive director
would not take so long to fill the position, but there are so many what-ifs.
In the proposed redesign of the system, governance of community colleges and vocational technical schools will be assigned to the new board, increasing the number of institutions the executive director will be responsible for by more than 30.
The changed board will still consist of nine members. However, it will be divided equally in three parts: a division to supervise the universities, a division to supervise the community colleges and a division to coordinate the other two divisions.
Bill Docking, chairman of the board, said that the reason for waiting to continue the search was that qualifications and criteria for executive director would be somewhat different if
reconstruction would take place.
If the restructuring bill becomes a law, all nine members' terms will expire June 30. It is up to the governor to appoint or reappoint members. Conant predicted some different members would receive appointments to accommodate the addition of the community colleges.
Representation may shift away from the University of Kansas as well. Included in the new higher-education package is a provision that limits number of board members with KU undergraduates degrees to three.
Adding to the new sense of urgency to fill the position, Thomas Bryant, current Regents interim executive director, accepted the presidency at Pittsburg State University and announced his intentions to step down as executive director Saturday.
Bryant said the biggest challenge for a new director would be managing the work between the governance and coordinating functions created by reconstruction.
"The success of it is based on the people involved in making it work," Bryant said. "It's vitally important that all people communicate."

Council approves code changes at last meeting
Members commend year's achievements
By Kristi Reimer
kreimer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
"If you've ever wondered how the chancellor, the provost and the rest of us make decisions, here you go," said outgoing President Bob Basow as he handed a magic eight ball to next year's president, librarian Marv Hawkins.
University Council members combined seriousness with fun yesterday as they wrapped up their work from this year and organized next year's leadership.
The message Hawkins got after consulting the ball, a fortune-telling toy, was, "Outlook not good."
Hawkins is taking over council, a representative governing body of 61 faculty, students and staff, after being voted president-elect last spring. To assist her in her duties, Bassow also gave her a pencil with a huge eraser, "for all the changes you'll have to make," an aromatherapy candle to ease headaches and a rubber sledgehammer to use as a gavel and to motivate colleagues.
Faculty members elected Jim Carothers, professor of English, as next year's president-elect, which will make him president in 2000-2001. Student members chose R.J. Woodring, Nunemaker senator, as council vice president.
Carothers was the only nominee for president elect.
"It's really great to triumph over that kind of
omission," he said.
Carothers was also elected chairman of next year's Senate Executive Committee, which approves committee proposals before sending
them on to University Council. He will replace Robert Hohn, professor of education.
Hohn gave members a report on major actions taken by SenEx and council during the year. The actions included:
Revised calendar — The University approved a calendar that adds a fall break and intersession and will recommend that the Board of Regents accord it.
Faculty compensation - Governance members were part of the University's push for higher salaries from the state Legislature, which has budgeted a 4.9 percent increase in funding for salaries.
Commercial contracts - Governance stressed the need to be involved in future decisions involving corporate contracts such as those the University has signed with Coca Cola and Commerce Bank.
Intellectual property — Governance will oversee the implementation of a policy adopted by the Board of Regents about who has the right to profit from faculty research.
Carothers commended Hohn and Basow for their roles as public advocates for the University, especially their attempts to make legislators see higher education as a priority.
"I think the glacier moved a little bit, and it's directly to the credit of Bob and Bob," Carothers said to applause by other members.
In their final action of the year, University Council approved two changes to the University Senate code. One would require the chancellor, when he rejects governance-approved proposals, to explain that rejection to council.
The other code change would abolish the Financial Aid to Students Committee. Carothers, a previous chairman, said that no one showed up to the meetings and that its duties were carried out by other groups on campus.

Lawrence police to hold auction of unclaimed items
By Kate Burford
kburford@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Bv Katie Burford
An auction of unclaimed property will be held by the Lawrence Police Department at 10 a.m. tomorrow in a city building at Fifth and Mississippi streets.
The department will sell about 250 items that have been turned into police or found by officers in the field for which they have been unable to find original owners.
"We don't have room to store these things," said Sgt. George Wheeler of the Lawrence Police Department.
Everything from electric razors to mountains bikes — and even a yo-yo — will be sold at the auction. Wheeler said that they held most of the bicycles until spring because they sold better them.
Limited storage space forces the department to hold auctions every six months. All of the property in the spring auction was found. However, the fall auction includes property that once served as evidence in court, but, for various reasons, could not be returned to the original owner.
"Some things may need a little repair work," he said.
Proceeds from the auction go toward a general fund for the city of Lawrence, which funnels into departments such as Parks and Recreation and Public Works.
Nonetheless, he said that he had seen people get non-quality purchases for rock-bottom prices.
SOME ITEMS FOR SALE AT THE AUCTION
118 Bicycles (both street and mountain
styles, men's, women's and children's)
Jewelry
Jewellery Tools
■ Electronic equipment (cameras, compact disc players, cellular phones, etc.)
■ Landscaping equipment (lawn movers, weed trimmers, etc.)
Wheeler said that the auctions usually raised several thousand dollars for the fund, although the exact amount could vary widely from one auction to the next.
The building will be open for viewing the items up for sale starting at 9 a.m. Bidders can purchase as few or as many items as they choose and there is no minimum bid.
A representative from klston Auction Co. 528 E. 550 Road, said that purchases must be paid for with cash or check and that the amount must be paid in full.
Wheeler said that a typical turn-out for the auction was about 100 people. It will last until all of the items are sold.
"Even if we only give a dime for it," Wheeler said. "We'll sell everything."
For questions about the auction, call Eliston Auction Co. at 749-9648.

Proposed Gas Out e-mail misses chance to promote conservation
A forwarded e-mail titled "Gas Out" begins: "It's time we did something about the prices of gasoline in America!" The e-mail claims that gasoline prices would drop drastically if a few million Americans did not patronize the gas pumps today.
In reality, a 24-hour Gas Out is a cop-out. The call for a consumer boycott on a single day is short-sighted and will have a negligible effect on gasoline prices. Buying gasoline yesterday or tomorrow, as the e-mail encourages, does not, during the span of the weekend affect the amount of gasoline sold.
However, a significant decrease in gasoline use can be achieved through a nationwide collaborative effort to conserve gasoline on an everyday basis.
Walking, biking and car pooling can help preserve gasoline on a daily basis.
This effort may mean personal inconvenience, but it is a realistic solution.
The solution entails individuals choosing to walk and bike, organize car pools and drive fuel-efficient cars. Only through a conscious undertaking by a majority of the public to conserve fuel continuously can any real impact be made.
The reason for the Gas Out is that the "so-called oil cartel has decided to slow production by some 2 million barrels per day to drive up the
price."
Although this may be true, slowed production and higher prices serve a purpose.
High gas prices, as much or more than any environmentalist literature, encourage people to limit gasoline use.
The concern to merely reduce gas prices is, in itself, a selfish one.
Everyone, including those who received or forwarded the e-mail and considered participating in the Gas Out, should consider participating in a life-long Gas Out.
The e-mail ends. "We CAN make a difference." An improved ending would be. "We CAN make a difference EVERY DAY."
And that is the e-mail that should be forwarded.

Students' vehicles to boost Saferide
Students are lucky to have access to Saferide. The University provides them with a program that offers a safe alternative to drunk driving. Not only should students use it, but they should also support it when given the opportunity.
At noon tomorrow, Greeks Advocating Mature Management of Alcohol (G.A.M.M.A.) will provide the chance for students to support this valuable program.
From noon to 6 p.m. at the Lied Center parking lot, members of G.A.M.M.A. will be washing cars as a benefit for Saferide.
Safeider, a program that serves students between the hours of 11 p.m. and 3 a.m., picks up students from anywhere in the Lawrence
A car wash tomorrow will benefit the campus alternative to drunk driving.
area and provides them with transportation to their homes.
Without Saferide, most students would be without a safer ride home.
Students should stop by the Lied Center tomorrow, have the raindrop streaks washed from their windows and make donations to the Saferide program.
Because of the six-year-old Saferide program, a service that extends a helping hand to intoxicated students or just persons in need of a lift, the University has helped to cultivate a feeling of security among the KU community. Whether people are looking for a way home that is safer than walking through campus or taking a risk on Lawrence streets, Saferide is the everpresent alternative.
Not only should they get their cars washed, but students also should make donations to expand
and support the presence of Saferide on the University campus.
A program that serves the students so dependably deserves their monetary support at tomorrow's car wash.

spinion @ kansas.com
This decision is puzzling, given what we are telling our youth these
days. We urge them to be responsible, to refrain from using alcohol, cigarettes and other drugs. We encourage them to recycle and protect the environment. We want them to be aware of the dangers of risky sexual behaviors and the tragedy of resolving conflicts through guns and other forms of weapons. We want them to resolve conflict peacefully. We want them to be socially engaged and fiscally responsible — that is, if they can achieve the same results with $1, they should not spend $100.
These recommendations seem logical enough, and those of us who work with children, adolescents and young adults make them every day.
However, when it comes to making the big decisions that affect the welfare of the whole world, many in the U.S. government and the defense industry throw overboard the advice they want children to follow. This is inconsistent and hypocritical, and there is nothing more frustrating to the youth than inconsistency and hypocrisy on the part of the adults who are supposed to give them positive guidance.
dampant inconsistency characterizes our political life. We refused to sign on to the treaty to ban land mines. Although we preach nuclear arm non-proliferation, our own nuclear arsenal is well and alive. Chemical and biological weapons are having a life of their own, and conventional weapons have become high-tech killing toys.
Still animated by a Cold War mentality, we expanded NATO to bring in more "allies." During World War II, we had to ally ourselves against the powers of the Axis Alliance and, after the war, against the powers of the Warsaw Pact. During the Gulf War, we had to ally ourselves against Iraq.
Now, we are allied against Slobodan Milosevic and Serbia at the cost of about $40 million a day and much human misery.
Saddam Hussein, we argue, was defeated and his powers seriously diminished. I don't know about that. Anybody who takes away my peace of mind and causes me to control his slightest moves has gained tremendous power over me.
The money we spend in search of enemies and on the defense against those enemies is money not spent on education, social welfare and health care.
We like to literally recreate history. We had a formidable enemy in the form of the former Soviet Union. Now that the Soviet Union is gone, we want another political entity to take its place. We want Russia to have that privilege. But Russia has other pressing problems.
So we say, "If Russia is not up to the challenge, let's try China. And while we are at it, just in case this does not work either, let's have a waiting list and put some candidates on it: North Korea, Iraq, Pakistan, India, Afghanistan, Libya, Sudan, Syria, Iran, Cuba, Serbia. Let's spend millions of dollars and construct a missile defense system against these potential enemies. The 2000 elections are approaching. We need campaign issues that will exploit people's fears, and the defense contractors in our districts can use the astronomic price of fear."
The missile defense system we want to build is supposed to meet and destroy incoming missiles. Will destruction be the end of the story? What if the warheads are nuclear, chemical or biological? How do we defend against the fallout?
Besides, the United States is not only the continental United States. What about Hawaii, Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands and Guam? Are we also going to protect them? If not, why not? Waco and Oklahoma City showed us that there are a few bad apples in the bosom of Uncle Sam, and they can do serious damage to our security. Do we also build a bomb defense system?
Instead of squandering billions of dollars on prohibitive military projects, we should invest the money on domestic social justice and education, international understanding, educational, cultural and goodwill exchanges among the young people who will inherit the world of tomorrow.
Wars do start in the minds and hearts of people. Idle thoughts, selfish thoughts and hateful thoughts produce idle words, selfish words and hateful words. The hateful and destructive action of violence and war are then only a natural consequence.
We have been getting the wrong answer about peace because we have been asking the wrong question: "How can we defend ourselves against our enemies when they attack us?"
The question we should ask is: "Our neighbors and us share the same planet. How can we foster sincere harmony among us in a spirit of mutual respect?"
Despite the present folly, I look forward to the day when "E pluribus unum," unity in diversity, will transform not only the United States but the whole planet through the positive use of the creative imagination. This, I believe, is the deep meaning of the American Dream and the true purpose of the American Experiment.

But the creators of this commercial would like us to think differently—that if we swallow a few of these capsules every day, we can go back for seconds, thirds and fourths, and not even have to do Tae-Bo.

Simmons. I didn't know that.
No side effects? What about a chemical bond between the rump and the couch? Pure, unadultered laziness? Pent-up stress?
College students have enough of these things as it is.
It's baffling that an ad like this doesn't violate some kind of FCC regulations. But like many diet supplements, these pills are not approved by the Food and Drug Administration, which means advertisers could claim they were the secret to eternal life and probably get away with it.
Before students pawn their athletic equipment to buy bottles of "miracle" diet pills, they should consider some other ways to lose weight; walking instead of riding the bus, cutting back on the 64-oz. Cokes, or visiting a dietitian at Watkins for some suggestions about how to eat better. (It's cheap — only about $10 per visit.)
There's also the KU FIT program at Robinson Center, as well as a variety of intramural sports.
These are suggestions from Watkins' chief of staff, Randall Rock. One of the last things the doctor would recommend? Exercise in a bottle.

Summerfield Hall may have been built 44 years ago, but thanks to changes in state policy, a new door will be added three feet from the current door to comply with fire codes.
The door, which costs $12,000,
should be finished in two weeks.
The door in Summerfield is being added because of a violation that is common to more than a dozen campus buildings, said Bob Rombach, project manager for design and construction management.
The staircase on the north side of Summerfield exits into the lobby, whereas state code says staircases must directly exit the building.
The new door will be an exit only much like several of the front doors to Strong Hall.
Bill Lewis, lecturer in the school of business and building coordinator for Summerfield, said the change didn't make much sense.
"Are we just going strictly by the rule or should there be some logic?" he said.
While he believed that the new door was unnecessary, Lewis said he understood the state office of the fire marshal's position.
"If you've got a code and you're the fire marshal and you're not enforcing the code, then you're open to criticism," he said. "Perhaps they've been criticized in the past for signing off on things."
Bob Rombach, project manager for design and construction management, said that two things had brought about the change to Summerfield as well as millions of dollars worth of changes to other buildings on campus.
First, Rombach said, a policy change by the office of the fire marshal in the early 1990s required existing buildings to be more up to date with current code.
Second, the state attorney general's office has asked that Kansas universities be examined more closely for fire code compliance.
Rombach said the fire marshal requested 340 changes in KU campus buildings last year. In years prior to 1991, Rombach said numbers were at most a third of that, maybe lower.
The staircase on the north side of Summerfield Nail exits into the lobby, whereas state code says staircases must directly exit the building.

"I'm hesitant to say it was 10 percent, but it was a whole lot less," he said.
Rombach said about half of the violations were behavioral, such as furniture left in the hallway, while the other half were structural. Rombach said he thought that before the policy change, they were mostly behavioral.
Jerry Briggs, Derby senior, was ambivalent about the door. He said that the congestion at the exit into the lobby wasn't that bad but that at the same time, he certainly didn't want to burn to death.
Ken Stoner, director of student housing, said that the same sort of problem had been addressed in the renovations of Templin Hall and Lewis Hall and will be addressed in the upcoming renovation of Ellsworth Hall.
Stoner said one of the other changes being phased in were wired-in smoke detectors.
"We still have a few battery-operated smoke detector systems," he said.
Larry Laubham, liaison to the University from the office of the fire marshal, said that he was unsure if citations had gone up as dramatically as Rombach claimed but that his office had been looking more aggressively for offenses.
Rombach said the projects would not be finished for eight or nine years and already cost the University millions.

The Web: learning tool or time-waster?

In an increasingly technical world, people are finding it harder to be productive without computers or Internet access. College students are no exception.
To keep students at the University of Kansas cruising on the information superhighway, the Department of Student Housing began making the residence halls and scholarship halls at KU Internet-ready in 1994. That meant the students who lived in the halls didn't have to pay a dial-in fee to access their e-mail accounts or the World Wide Web from computers in their rooms.
University administrators also had discussed the possibility of requesting that all students have a home computer by Fall 1999.
Kathleen McCluskey-Fawcett,
associate provost for academic affairs, said that the issue had been discussed but that computer ownership would not become an official KU requirement.
But not everyone thinks that it is a good idea for college students to have Internet access piped into their rooms.
Nate Stulman, a student at Swarthmore College, wrote a recent column for The New York Times that called computers, especially those with Internet access, "The Great Campus Goof-Off Machine."
In his column, Stulman recounted stories of students who spent hours in front of their computers playing games, visiting chat rooms or downloading software, rather than doing homework or attending classes.
Some students at KU think that Stulman has a point, but they haven't seen their hallmates
doing all the things that Stulman described.
Scott Raymond, Belton, Mo., junior and Templin Hall resident, has to spend a certain amount of time online every day because he won a Levi's contest that requires him to do all of his shopping on the Internet. However, he said that he didn't think he wasted too much time online.
"I'm not a big game player." Raymond said. "Sometimes I do just kind of mindless surfing, like you do with TV. And chatting is a big time waster."
But Raymond said that he had never seen anyone in his hall spend large amounts of time just doing nothing on the Internet.
Robert Reddig, Kansas City, Mo., junior, also lives in Templin Hall. He said that he didn't think Internet connections in residence halls posed a problem.
said. "College is all about learning how to live on your own and balance work with everything else."
Although he said that he knew of students who did skip homework to play games, such as Quake, Warcraft or Starcraft, he hadn't heard of anyone skipping class just to keep playing.
"I think it's a good thing," he
Thomas Helike, assistant professor of political science, said he didn't consider computers or the Internet necessary to a good liberal arts education.
He said computers were useful as word processors for students to write papers, but they weren't really a requirement for students in his classes.
"They're a convenience, not a necessity," Heilke said. "They can definitely have a downside. It's just like with TV. You turn off your brain."

Message of hate delivered to Wyoming
Right: Charles Hickenbarger, one of Fred Phelps' followers, demonstrates in front of the Washburn University law school last fall. Below: Two young members of Phelps' church talk casually while demonstrating on the lawn of Allen Fieldhouse before Desmond Tutu's speech earlier this month. Phelps and his followers have traveled across the United States spreading their message of hate against homosexuality.
Continued from page 1A
He preached with an enigmatic authority, a presence that demanded attention and unwavering conviction.
A penetrating glare beamed from underneath his Marlboro Man cowboy hat. Phelps' face was none other than that of pure hatred.
FAGS
DIE.
GOD
LAUGHS
godhatesfags.com
FAG
SIN
It is not a face that is new to residents of either Topeka or Lawrence. Phelps and his signs—"AIDS cures fags," "God hates fags," "Fags die. God laughs," — are a fixture in both towns, and the group's appearance at KU's Lied Center events are as predictable as the changing seasons. But, of late, Phelps has decided to take his rancor on the road. He and his group have popped up in small towns and large cities across the nation. He was named in George magazine as the fifth most fascinating man in politics and has been featured recently in Rolling Stone and Mother Jones magazines. In fact, he has begun traveling so far and wide that any city hall anywhere in America might find Westboro Baptist Church's venomous faxes spilling out of their machine, an advisory to prepare; Phelps is on the way.
Spreading the Word
The crusades of Phelps & Co. have taken them and their picket signs to locations both predictable and surprising: San Francisco City Hall because the city passed a gay rights ordinance; Oral Roberts University because the president divorced and remarried, Baylor University and Iowa State University for "selling out to the militant Sodomites"; Baghdad, to let Sadam Hussein know that "Fag U.S.A. = Sodom"; Phoenix for the city's gay pride parade. The list goes on.
Although plenty of detractors have criticized Phelps as media hungry, in his mind, he is no such thing: "I'll give you my job description," he tells me. "Those old preachers laid their hands on my head. It called a Baptist ordination. September 8, 1947. Then they deliver a charge. One of them delivered mine out of Isaiah 58:1. 'Cry aloud; spare not; lift thy voice like a trumpet and show my people their transgression.' That's my job. 'Cry aloud.' How do you do that high deed but get where the people are? I've been faithful to that charge 51 years now."
For ideological reasons that vary from clear to extremely murky, WBC has picked the funerals of celebrities and political figures such as Sen. Barry Goldwater from Arizona, Rep. Sonny Bono from California, President Bill Clinton's mother, Vice President Al Gore's father, Frank Sinatra, slain guy man Billy Jack Gaither and, of course, Matthew Shepard.
First Amendment Fences
With Phelps' impending arrival, many towns have looked to Kansas for guidance in coping with WBC's patently offensive brand of picketing and preaching.
GOD'S WRATH IS
Rev. 6, 14,
16, 18.
CERTAIN
YOUR PASTOR IS LYING
Zack Phelps-Roper, 7, Grace Phelps-Roper, 5, and Gabriel Phelps-Roper, age 3, often picket with the rest of the Westboro congregation.
The most recent examples are Casper, where Matthew Shepard's funeral was held, and Laramie, where the trial of one of his confessed killers was to be held. Jack Stewart, Casper city attorney, described the day of the funeral as "a public safety nightmare." The city had received threats on Phelps' life.
"But we wanted to protect everyone's First Amendment rights," he said.
Stewart and his staff dove head-long into First Amendment case law to put together a funeral picketing ordinance that would pass Constitutional muster. It was molded after Topeka's, which the U.S. Supreme Court refused to reverse in an appeal by Westboro. It dictates that funeral picketing must occur at least 50 feet away from the entrance to the building where the funeral is held.
To further ensure a peaceful protest, the Phelps group and a like-minded group from Texas were placed in a fenced containment area similar to the setup used to control the press and the public during the Timothy McVeigh trial in Denver.
Stewart said that he couldn't have been more pleased with the way things went.
it was Constitutional law on the ground level," he said.
In Laramie, city officials ran an advertisement in the local paper prior to WBC's arrival warning citizens about what to expect from Phelps and how to react.
"These people would relish a confrontation to generate support for their cause. We ask that you not dignify their presence here by confronting them", the ad read, "ignore them. Do not engage them in debate. Do not be provoked into a physical confrontation."
It was signed by Philip Dubois, President of the University of Wyoming and Dave Williams, mayor of Laramie.
Laramie City Manager Kelly Arnold, who earned a Master's in Public Administration from the University of Kansas and has witnessed Phelps' tactics first-hand, said his conversations with Topeka Chief Administrative Officer John Arnold and a letter from Topeka Mayor Joan Wagnon helped Laramie's government settle on the strategy for the ad. Wagnon sends the letter to all the cities that WBC visits.
Topeka Shares its Tactics
Other places that have turned to Topeka for aid with the Phelps road show include Philadelphia, Province-town, Mass., Columbia, Mo., and Phoenix. The man in Topeka who often fields those calls is Ed Klump, Topeka deputy chief of police. He said that he had been called in about 11 times during the past year.
Klump's goal is to let the towns know what to expect, help them allocate security resources, and, above all, set up a dialogue between a city representative and a member of the Phelps group.
Klump said that the way the people of Topeka dealt with Phelps was very different than the way that they did five or six years ago.
"We have established some things with the Phelps that allow us to work things out," he said. "Their method of protesting is different, and the public's response is different."
Different how? Klump said that he would rather not elaborate.
In many ways, the way that a town reacts to Phelps is a reflection of the forces and resources operating within the community. Elaine B. Sharp, professor of political science, recently edited a University of Kansas Press book called "Culture Wars and Local Politics," published
'Holding Our Community Hostage'
this spring. She said that hot-button issues such as abortion, gambling, prostitution and pornography were concerns that were fundamentally moral but could shape a local government's political landscape.
Sharp said that her book included a chapter about Fred Phelps and Topeka because Phelps' culture war demonstrated the way a local government had coped with a controversy that was tied to one such morality-based issue.
"The city's initial efforts to evade the controversy gave way to repressive measures when the minister's efforts threatened the city's national image, and hence, its economic development aspirations." Sharp said.
Now Topeka law enforcement's views de-politicizing the Phelps' issue as the best choice for maintaining community harmony and that's the message they convey when other communities call for help. Mayor Wagnon has opted for tough talk in the absence of repressive action." I have run (and won) against Fred Phelps for Mayor." Wagnon said. "We have defeated his children for various office. We have challenged them in court. But the one thing we cannot do is violate their constitutional rights to picket, no matter how hateful the message ... They are holding our community hostage. We hate it. But it's legal."
On the bright side for Topeka and Lawrence, Phelps is spending less of his time sounding his trumpet in Kansas.
Keeping the Hell fires Burning
Phelps has said that his church has about 200 member, but that only about 60 members regularly attend. Converting people is not Phelps' strong point, and he has managed to alienate even far right groups such as the Traditional Values Coalition, whose chairman, Rev. Louis Sheldon, showed up in Laramie and denounced Phelps' message.
"This man does not represent the heart of the gospel or even the fringes of the gospel when he says that a certain group of people cannot be saved," he said.
On his web site, Phelps says that saving souls was never the end for which he preaches: "Remember, Noah preached for 120 years and convinced nobody, and by that righteous preaching, he condemned the world."
If condemnation is to be Phelias' legacy, who will be his successor?
"Talk to Ben." he tells me during the Laramie demonstration. "You know Ben. He teaches computer science over there at your school, my oldest grandson. You can ask him some questions like that."
Ben Phelps, Topeka graduate student, recently made the cover of a national newspaper insert, USA Weekend, for his work maintaining the Phelps' web site.
FAGS
BURN
IN
HELL
Although he plays a significant role in propagating WBC's message of hate, he said that he hadn't ever thought about taking a leadership role in the church.
"You've got to have fire behind you. It's something that God gives you. I could probably get up there and say the right words, but it wouldn't have the same impact. You have to be called, and so far, I've haven't felt that." he said.
At 70 years old, Phelps still feels the fire. His calling to bring God's wrath down on homosexuals has not abated in 51 years. But executing God's wrath is not man's job, and Phelps said that he didn't believe Matthew Shepard deserved to die.
"I'm sorry they killed him," he said.
But there is no sympathy in that sorrow —he's counting the days Shepard has spent in hell. It's that, according to the rules of Phelps' world, the "thou shalt not" cover both homosexuality and killing.
In the case of Russell Henderson and Aaron McKinney, he said that it was an eye for an eye: "I told the Governor of Wyoming that if his killers get the death penalty, I'll be there to pull the switch."

Greeks, Templin Hall unite for philanthropy
By Amber Stuever
Special to the Kansan
Lambda Chi Alpha fraternity, Delta Gamma sorority and Templin Hall have joined together to sponsor tomorrow's series of golf contests called "Long Shots and Lucky Putts", which will help raise money for the American Red Cross of Lawrence.
The community at KU includes greek and non-greek students," said Graham Heaven, Lambda Chi Alpha philanthropy chairman and Shawnee sophomore. "We're trying to help the community, so we wanted to include both."
The idea for the joint philanthropy effort came from LeaderShape, a weeklong conference that leaders from various campus organizations attended in January. Greek students and Templin residents who attended LeaderShape decided a joint philanthropy was a positive way to break down barriers between Greek and non-greek groups on campus.
Nick Crewz, Templin president and Tulsa, Okla, sophomore, said that originally, his hall's members were skeptical about the idea for the joint effort.
"Sometimes, there's anti-sentiments about working with different groups," Crewz said. "I was hoping to make this work between the two groups and for the greek system to see how things work over here."
Members of all three groups said there were hurdles in working together because the bureaucracies of greek
houses and residence halls worked differently.
"We see how things are run on the greek side of things, but we really can't see how things are run on the residence hall side," said Thu Lam, Delta Gamma philanthropy chathwoman and Overland Park sophomore.
Crewz has to get a majority vote from his hall government to receive money for events, while the greek houses can simply dip into a fund for philanthropies.
"The principles behind this were a really good idea," Crewz said. "It's really a good idea, but it may be one of these things that takes a year's experience to get going."
The philanthropy, which will include contests such as miniature golf, longest drive and best ball, will be held tomorrow at Twin Oaks Golf Course near Eudora.
The registration deadline.for playing in the tournament has passed, but spectators can compete for prizes in a precision-shot contest. Pizza Hut will be giving away pizza at the tournament.
Spectators can buy T-shirts, and all of the proceeds will go to the Red Cross. So far, the project has raised more than $1,000 for the Red Cross.
"This has been a definite success so far," Heaven said. "If this runs smoothly, I definitely hope to keep doing this with the same groups for years to come."

Choirs, orchestra to give final spring performance
By Matt Cox
Special to the Kansan
Some KU students will celebrate the end of the semester by singing and playing a "Psalm" this weekend.
The KU Combined Choirs and the Symphony Orchestra will give their last concert of the semester at 2:30 p.m. Sunday at the Lied Center.
The program "An Afternoon with Haydn and Stravinsky" will feature "Fires of Light," written by KU alumnus Tecwyn Evans, "Symphony No. 85 in B-Flat" and "Mass in D minor" by Joseph Haydn, and "Symphony of Psalms" by Igor Stravinsky.
The concert marks the end of the 1998- 99 Concert Series by the School of Fine Arts' Music and Dance program.
"Stravinsky is very intense," said Nick Probst, Des Moines, Iowa, sophomore majoring in vocal performance.
He said the whole Stravinsky symphony was about a man's plea to God to hear his prayer.
"I'm really excited I get to express myself in this wav." Probst said.
The music is lyrically complex and complicated in structure. And with the way it is arranged, the audience can understand and feel the raw emotion in the lyrics. Probst said.
Probst also said the arrangement would do more than give the audience

"The music will play tricks with people's minds," he said.
He said people who were used to traditional radio music and even traditional choral music would not be prepared for the twists and turns the music would make.
Probst said his choir had worked all semester on Haydn's "Mass in D minor" and Stravinsky's "Symphony of Psalms."
Matt Bloomer, Gladstone, Mo., freshman in cello performance, said he was looking forward to contributing to the concert.
"It'll be a good experience if you've never been," he said.
Tickets are on sale at all KU box offices. The general public admission is $5. Students and senior citizens are $4. Tickets also may be purchased by phone with a Visa or Mastercard.

Upbeat Orbital breaks from norm
By T.J. Johnson
johnson@kansan.com
fJohnson staff writer
In the spring of 1996, I stumbled upon some samples of Orbital's *In Sides* album and fell under their spell. The music had an unusual kind of complexity for electronic music. It was not overloaded with beats and samples; it just had incredible detail and depth. Its synthesizer and samples had a three-dimensional feel unlike any other electronic band I had ever heard.
That CD has become one of my all-time favorites, so when I heard that Orbital had
a new album coming out, I ordered it as soon as I could.
The Middle of Nowhere is the fifth full-length album from brothers Paul and Phil Hartnoll and is something of a
MUSIC REVIEW
departure from their past work. It has the trademark feel of Orbital, but it is more upbeat and dance-oriented than their past three works. And they did it without being cheesy.
The first track, Way Out, has a Star Trek/Mars Attacks synthesizer feel to it. The sound is big and very happy. The track
Quite an achievement.
also features trumpets and the scattered female vocals that accompany many of their tracks.
Way Out leads into Spare Parts Express, a strange collage of melodies and sounds that most bands would have trouble pulling off. Over spiralling electronic lines, the overlying melody has that futuristic feel similar to Way Out. This is science fiction music. About two-thirds of the way through the track, a sudden mood swing takes the song from upbeat visions to paranoid chaos.

Charming Australian film shows tug of family, home
By Brendan Walsh
Kansan movie critic
A simple movie about family and pride The Castle inevitably will draw comparisons to last year's successful import, The Full Monty. Released two years ago in Australia and opening domestically May 7, The Castle is a heartwarming David and Goliath tale of one family's fight to keep its home from being bulldozed for an airport expansion.
MOVIE REVIEW
The Castle Rating : A-
Blue-collar Darryl Kerrigan (Michael Caton) is a tow-truck driver, loyal husband and loving father of four. His humble house is next to an airport. It's so close that when Darryl's daughter returns from her honeymoon, she's able to walk to her parent's house. When the airport needs to expand, Darryl and his eccentric neighbors are notified that they will have to vacate their properties, though they will be monetarily compensated for the value of their homes.
tion seems dead set against the land takeover. His argument is less than effective.
That's not good enough for Darryl, who considers his home his castle and the foundation of all his best memories. To fight the airport and the federal laws it operates under, Darryl enlists the help of a local barrister whose forte is making wills and defending those accused of petty theft. Though well-intentioned, the best argument that he can muster is that the "vibe" of the Australian constitu-
Darryl's plight comes to the attention of a prestigious constitutional law expert who agrees to take up his case for free. He does considerably better than the local barrister.
While the action of the film revolves around the court cases and Darryl's fight for his home, the story is really more about a loving family. Because most popular images of lower-class people come from the Jerry Springer show, it's nice to see a more sympathetic portrayal of those lacking social status. Every time the family sits to a meal — during which they watch TV with the sound off — Darryl finds some way to compliment his wife on her cooking, find out how his children's day went and espouse family values in such a way that it doesn't seem preachy.
The pacing of the movie might seem slow to some, and the actors will be unrecognizable to almost everyone. Still, this touching, unpretentious story with no special effects and a shoestring budget tells a compelling story that is sure to charm American audiences.

A STRUGGLE WITH CONVICTION
Supporters fight for Leonard Peltier's freedom as the "political prisoner's" health continues to fail.
Several of Leonard Peltier's paintings hang in the international office of the Leonard Peltier Defense Committee, 745 New Hampshire St.

By Pallavi Agarwal Special to the Kansan
A large black-and-white photograph from Leonard Peltier's younger days dominates one wall of the international office of the Leonard Peltier Defense Committee in downtown Lawrence.
His eyes crinkle in a smile. Teeth flash under a bushy mustache, and shoulder-length hair frames a face that falls into a slight double chin.
It is not the same face that an international human rights activist would find today if she visited the Leavenworth prison to examine the Native American, probably the best known American "political prisoner" in the world.
Peltier is serving two consecutive life sentences for the death of two FBI agents killed in 1975.
Twenty-three years spent behind bars has left Peltier fighting depression and bitterness. He has aged in the face and body.
Now 54 years old, he has lockjaw due to tetanus. It prevents him from chewing food properly and is creating concern among his supporters for his life.
Gina Chiala, legal assistant at the Peltier Defense Committee, said Peltier could not open his mouth beyond 13 millimeters and was forced to eat his food by pushing the morsels through a gap in his front teeth and then mashing them against the teeth with his tongue.
Peltier, who twice has undergone operation by prison doctors, has refused a third operation, saying that only specialists at the Mayo Clinic, Rochester, Minn., have the expertise to treat him without endangering his life.
His insistence at being treated at the Mayo Clinic and the refusal of the Bureau of Prisons to grant his request have sparked publicity campaigns by the Pelitzer Defense Committee. It also has prompted today's visit of activist Dannielle Mitterrand, former first lady of France and president of the France Libertes Foundation, a nongovernment organization.
Mitterrand will address the Lawrence public at 6:30 tonight at the Haskell Indian Nations University auditorium.
Peltier, in a telephone interview from Leavenworth, said he could only hope for his plight to improve.
"I need to keep trying. Although new evidence emerged, it has not helped me. It's been 25 years. In 1985, the government admitted that they didn't know who killed the agents. And yet nothing has changed."
"Prisoners have no rights. We deem this cruel and unusual punishment and a medical malpractice."
Gina Chiala
Legal assistant at the
Pellet Defense Committee
His spirit to survive holds together a three-decade campaign to free him that has made his name synonymous with the struggle of indigenous people.
Back in Lawrence, a few volunteers refuse to give up their efforts for his eventual freedom.
"He is always very cheerful," said Lisa Faruolo, who once worked with the Peltier Defense Committee.
Today, supporters like her will hear Mitterrand talk about Peltier, a man many consider to be the most famous Native American rebel since Crazy Horse and who, some add, is better known outside the country than in the land of his birth and imprisonment.
The committee operates an international campaign from Lawrence, which Faruolo helped coordinate until last year.
At that time, he was associated with the American Indian Movement, which emerged in the 1960s as a radical, activist and sometimes armed group of Native Americans who fought for the sovereignty of their tribes.
The man behind the bars
Peltier was indicted for the deaths of two FBI agents who were killed on June 26, 1975 at Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota.
Pine Ridge had been the scene of shootouts and protests since 1973, and tensions ran high between the AIM and the Lakota Sioux, who ran Pine Ridge's tribal government. Some on the reservation accused the tribal superintendent of selling off the uranium-rich land — land the AIM was trying to protect.
On June 26, two FBI agents went looking for a man accused of stealing a pair of cowboy boots. The search lead to a car chase and a shootout. The agents never returned alive.
The government has maintained that
Four people, including Peltier, were charged in the deaths. Peltier, who had escaped to Canada, was later extradited and indicted. Charges were dropped against the third defendant. The other two were acquitted.
the agents were killed in cold blood. In the crossfire, one Native American also lost his life.
Peltier, who has maintained his innocence, was found guilty and sentenced to two consecutive life terms.
In 1985, a federal prosecutor admitted to the 8th Circuit Court of Appeals that the FBI did not know who killed the agents. The appeals court upheld the sentence, however, calling Peltier an "aider and abetter."
Jean Bordeaux-Roach, Rapid City, S.D., resident and Peltier Defense Committee spokeswoman, said Peltier was made a scapegoat in a fight between the United States government and the Native Americans that has spanned centuries.
Hillary Robinette, communications director with the Society of Former FBI agents, said that Peltier was only being tried for a crime he committed.
She said that if the other defendants were acquitted on the basis of self-defense, then the same argument applied to Peltier.
Peltier has thrice appealed unsuccessfully for a retrial. His 1993 plea for clementy still awaits a reply from President Clinton or his successor. In 1996, the U.S. Parole Commission rejected his appeal for parole, saying he was not eligible until 2008.
Peltier's lockjaw problem started from childhood when he stepped on a nail and developed tetanus.
Peltier's disease
He said that the problem worsened after the two operations conducted by Springfield, Mo. doctors in 1996. He said the lockjaw also was causing constant earaches and headaches on his right side.
Chiha said the bureau's refusal to allow Peltier to be examined at the Mayo Clinic as a sign of the government's ill-treatment of prisoners.
"Prisoners have no rights," she said. "We deem this cruel and unusual punishment and a medical malpractice."
Meanwhile, the bureau refers all questions on Peltier's medical condition to a news release posted on their Web site.
The press release said Peltier and the
medical staff at Leavenworth and Springfield had discussed his medical condition in a recent teleconference, during which he was told that his condition was stable and that he did not require prolonged intensive treatment at the bureau medical facility.
Eugene Keller, a specialist with the Mayo Clinic, has written to prison authorities, offering to examine Peltier and provide a second opinion of his condition. But Chiala said authorities have denied the physician's request.
Barbara Fortier, Peltier supporter from Atlanta, sent her mother's food chopper to the penitentiary so that Peltier's food could be ground up, making it easier for him to eat. The packet came back.
"They thought it was a bomb," she said.
Friends in high places
Peltier's case often has attracted international attention.
On February 11, the European Parliament passed a resolution requesting that the U.S. government grant him executive clemency.
Amnesty International, a global human rights watchdog organization, considers Peltier a prisoner of conscience who received an unfair trial and sentence and is being denied proper medical treatment.
Peltier also was nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize. Many, such as Nobel Peace prize winners Rigoberta Menchu and Archbishop Desmond Tutu, have spoken in his support.
Some government officials, such as former Attorney General Ramsey Clark, have turned into supporters. Clark was for several years a part of Peltier's defense team.
Peltier's cause has been documented in films such as the Robert Redford documentary Incident at Oglala and books like Peter Matthiessen's "In the Spirit of Crazy Horse."
Peltier's paintings decorate the homes of celebrities such as Jane Fonda, Val Kilmer and Robert Redford
This February, 76 Peltier supporters went on a hunger strike around the world as an appeal to have him transferred to the Mayo Clinic. Other supporters sent e-mail and letters, Chila said.
Mittlerand's talk will be followed by presentations from three survivors of the 1975 shootout — Bordeaux-Roach, Jean Day and Edgar Bear Runner.
The New Dawn Dancers, a youth group organized by the Pelathe Indian Center, will perform. Cornel Peewardy, KU assistant professor, also will play the flute. The program is free to the public.
Through Mitterrand's visit, the Peltier Defense Committee hopes to whip up more international pressure for Peltier's release.
Roach said that the committee saw the international community as Peltier's best bet.
Harvey Arden, editor of Peltier's forthcoming book, "Prison Writings; My Life is my Sun Dance", agreed.
"Peltier is better known in Europe than in America," he said.
Peltier often has been visited by celebrities in prison, but Mitterrand's visit coincides at a time when some of his supporters say that prison authorities increasingly are isolating him against the outside world so as to kill any news about him.
"They are trying to break him," Chiaila said.
Some, like Fortier, believe that if it were not for his supporters' constant monitoring, he would have been dead by now.
Arden has visited Peltier a few times and believes that some of the fear of reprisal from Peltier supporters is unfounded.
He said that initially he was reluctant to tell anybody about the book project he had started with Peltier.
Later, I realized that if anybody was going to stop me, they would have done it much earlier," he said

Leonard Peltier
Local support rallies for Peltier
The international headquarters of the Leonard Peltier Defense Committee is a two-room office in downtown Lawrence.
Peltier's paintings and pictures, which hang on the wall, lighten the austere atmosphere.
It's an office, struggling to do more with less.
Keith McHenry, who has been at the defense Committee office since last October, is a co-founder of Food Not Bombs, an activist group that has spawned 200 branches in the U.S.
There is no plush carpeting, Stacks of papers lie piled on the floor, and the three full-time staff members slog 60 hours a week without pay.
Now he helps staff members, Gina Chirala and Pat Benabe, coordinate Peltier's campaign from a couple of computer terminals, faxes and phone lines.
This June, the committee is holding one of its biggest conferences in recent years to help pool together the efforts of the different domestic and international support groups connected with the campaign.
The conference, to take place from June 25-27, at the Haskell Indian Nations University, will feature presentations from coordinators and invited speakers on lobbying skills and grass-roots activism.
"We are expecting at least 200 people," Chiala said. "Anybody can come."
"Many of our support groups are started by one person," he said. "Some dissolve, some remain."
McHenry said that coordinating a campaign that scale was not easy. The committee often is faced with funding problems and lack of unity within its various branches.
Drawing public opinion for Pettier is a key issue with the committee, and McHenry hopes that Pettier's forthcoming book, to be released on June 26, will help increase his support base.
"It is a very philisophical book," said Harvey Arden, Washington-based writer, who is editing Peltier's first book, Prison Writings: My Life is my Sun Dance.
The project, which started two years ago, is a compilation of some Pettier's best letters, speeches and articles.
"He is a wonderful writer," said Arden. "He sees his life as unimportant. There is nothing about his marriages and children, although he talks about his grandchildren."
Harvey said that the project started slowly because of prison visitation restrictions and their struggle to find a publisher who was willing to release the book.
The book is being released by St. Martin's Press. It is priced at $22.95 and will have German, French and possible Italian editions.

After a life-threatening attack, a talented baseball player is ...
F
Taking a second swing at the plate
By Ryan Perkins sports@kansan.com Special to the Kanson
Four years ago, Brad Harker lay in a coma in a Columbus, Ohio, hospital, the right side of his skull fractured into hundreds of pieces, fighting for his life after someone attacked him with what police think was a metal tire iron.
Today, Harker, a Lawrence native and one-time varsity baseball player at Kansas State, is attending the University of Kansas, teaching youngsters how to swing the bat and rebuilding his life after his near-death experience.
His attacker remains unidentified and may never be punished.
Harker had major league potential. In 1993, he was drafted as a first baseman
by the Chicago White Sox in the 36th round. But he turned down a small contract and took his 3.98 grade point average and 6-foot-5, 210-pound frame to Kansas State University with two goals: get a degree and pursue whatever avenues baseball might bring.
Harker's work ethic earned him immediate respect from K-State head baseball coach Mike Clark.

"Brad went out and did his job every day and continually improved as a first baseman," Clark said. "Brad represented KSU the way you would want your own kid to."
During the summer of 1995, Harker was preparing for his junior year at KState, playing in a wooden bat league in Ohio with the Columbus All-Americans, a college-level team.
On July 16, 1995, Harker's dream of playing professional baseball came to a brutal end. Harker and most of his teammates were staying at the Triangle fraternity house at Ohio State University. After a long night of playing pool in the fraternity with teammates, Harker decided to leave about 2 a.m. The team had a doubleheader the next day and would be leaving for the field in the morning.
But when morning came, Harker's teammates realized he was missing. One went to check on Harker and found him unconscious in his bed, blood covering his face, which was swollen to the size of a basketball. The shrill alarm clock that was supposed to waken him still echoed throughout the room.
Harker was rushed to the Ohio State University Medical Center's intensive care unit where he underwent 14 hours of surgery to repair head injuries.
Sue and Jay Harker, his parents, arrived in Columbus as soon as they could.

K-State comes to town riding April hot streak

This is it: the final Big 12 conference series of the season for the Kansas baseball team is this weekend, closing out what has been a less than memorable season for the team.
The Jayhawks have struggled in the powerful Big 12. Competition at times, they have mostly been dominated, carrying a 4-23 record. 0-12 at home.
Kansas biggest rival.
"At this point in the season, it's a little something extra for us to shoot for," catcher Shane Wedd esd. "To knock off your rival in the final
What better way, however, to close out performance play than against the
Kansas State Wildcats — Kansac' hisoect rival
series would put a nice touch on the end of our season."
Finishing the season with a "nice touch" is something that the entire team is focusing on right now.
The Wildcat pitchers have pitched brilliantly at times this season, throwing complete games and shutting down powerful conference opponents. However, they have thrown equally as poorly at other times, losing games they might have won.
"The important part is for us to finish strong," shortstop John Nelson said. "If we come out with intensity and ready to play, I think we will."
The challenge: to knock the Wildcat starting pitchers out of the game. The plan: to return to the hot hitting that the Jayhawks enjoyed during the recent Texas A&M and Oklahoma State series.
"Their starters are good, and we need to get into their bullpen to have success." Randall said.
Baseball
"It's a little odd to come back and play them right again away," Coach Bobby
Randall said, "But we saw them the other night, we know what we need to do, and we'll take it as a challenge to that."
But to do that, the Jayhawks will have to erase the memory of a recent shelllacking at the hands of the Wildcats. Wednesday night in Wichita, K-State pounded out 12 hits and cycled through six Jayhawk pitchers, dismissing the Jayhawks 13-3.
Led by senior starter Jason Wells and
Part of the reason for their vitality is the fact that their offense has come alive lately. Led by left fielder Kasey Weishaar's, 442 average, K-State's offense has scored, and scored often, in its past few Big 12 contests. In the past nine games K-State has outscored its opponents 103-52, managed 116 hits and compiled a 7-2 record.
The Wildcats have won the past six meetings between these Sunflower State rivals in Lawrence, but still trail 160-138 in the 298-game series. 'Tonight's and tomorrow's games will begin at 7 p.m. Sunday's finale will start at 1 p.m.

Wins at regionals could push team to national competition
The Jayhawks travel to Madison, Wis., this weekend for the Midwest Association of Rowing Championships. A top-five finish would be a step toward qualifying for the NCAA Women's Rowing Championships in Sacramento, Calif.
By Matt James
Kansan sportswriter
A trip to the championships May 28-31 would top off what has been the most productive season in the four years women's rowing has held varsity sport status.
The bags are packed. The boats are ready. And for the women's rowing team, the stakes have never been higher.
mjames@kansan.com
by man james
mjames@kennpp.co
"This is obviously our most important weekend of the season," said Coach Rob Catloth. "I believe that this region can get four varsity eight boats into the NCAA's. That means we'll have to unset a couple of schools."
Pulling off upsets is something Kansas hasn't really had to worry about this spring. The team has been ranked in the National Collegiate Rowing Coaching Poll the entire spring. Landlocked in the Midwest, though, the Jayhawks haven't faced a ranked opponent since a March 27 showdown with 28th-ranked Boston and 22nd-ranked Massachusetts. The Jayhawks' first varsity eight boat is only tied with Cornell at No. 23 in the most recent rankings.
With only 15 teams receiving bids to the championships in Sacramento, a final ranking in the 20s probably won't be good enough. The Jayhawks need a large field of talented schools to prove themselves. Enter this weekend.
Fifth-ranked Michigan, eighth-ranked Michigan State and ninth-ranked Wisconsin highlight a talented field of more than 20 schools.
"We need to keep focused throughout the entire weekend," Catloth said. "With a potential of four races, it is extremely important that we keep our enthusiasm and motivation in every race."
Ironically, what may have helped prepare Kansas for this weekend was a loss to Sacramento State April 23. The two second loss to the Hornets provided a rare nail-biting finish.
"Most of the races we've had haven't been that close," said junior co-captain Becky Valburg. "Having a close race will be a great benefit in Madison."

Commentary
Graduate gives parting advice: Drink beer, respect seniors
Ladies and gentlemen of the University of Kansas: Drink beer.
Enjoy the power and strength of your youth. Oh, never mind. You will not understand the power and strength of your youth until you've blown out a knee.
If I could offer you only one tip for the future, drinking beer would be it. The short-term benefits of beer have been proved by bar goers, whereas the rest of my advice has no basis more reliable than my own experience. I will dispense this advice now.
Don't worry about life after graduation. Or worry, but know that worrying is as effective as trying to beat Michael Jordan one-on-one. The real troubles in your life are apt to be things that never crossed your worried mind, the kind that break your arm at 1:30 on some idle Sunday afternoon.
Trust me, when you're graduating, you'll look back at photos of yourself and recall in a way you can't grasp now how much possibility lay before you at the University and how goofy you really looked as a freshman.
Do one thing every day that makes you sweat.
Karaoke
Run.
Don't waste your time on golf.
Don't spill other people's beer.
Don't waste your time with
others who spill yours.
Don't waste your time on go!.
Sometimes you putt long;
sometimes you putt short. The
game is long and, in the end, it's
only against yourself.
Remember the games you win.
Forget the ones you lose. If you succeed in doing this, tell me how.

Get plenty of exercise.
Keep your A-papers. Throw away your F-papers. Stretch
Don't feel guilty if you don't know what sport you're best at. The best athlete I know didn't know at 22 that they were athletes. Some of the 40-year-olds I know think they're athletes.
Be kind to your roommates. You'll miss them when they're gone.
Maybe you'll have a date, maybe you won't. Maybe you'll get a dog, maybe you won't. Maybe your dog will bite your date, maybe you'll dance the funky chicken in your underwear at Fatgo's.
Whatever you do, don't talk up your game too much, or berate it either.
Your choices are half chance. So are everybody else's.
Enjoy your body. Use it any way you can. Don't be afraid of injuring it or of what other people can do to it.
It can be the best instrument you'll ever own to score goals with.
Dance, even if you have nowhere to do it but on the bar at Sandbar.
Read the Kansan, even if you don't agree with it.
Do not leave your phone in the owner's
it will only make you feel inadequate
Call your parents. You never know when they might feel like sending you money.
Do not read Sports Illustrated's "Faces in the Crowd." It will only make you feel inadequate.
Be nice to your siblings. They're your best bet at a pickup basketball game, even if you didn't even make the Thompson B team as a child.
Understand that teammates come and go, but with a precious few you should hold on. Work hard to bridge the gaps in geography and lifestyle, because the older you get, the more you need the teammates who can still hall.
Live in Johnson County once, but leave before it makes you conceited. Live in Wichita once, but leave before it makes you listen to country music.
Take road trips.
Accept certain inalienable truths. K-State has a good football team. Kansas will break your heart in March. You, too, will graduate. And when you do, you'll fantasize that when you were a student, K-State stunk, Kansas won the NCAA tournament and freshmen respected seniors.
Respect your seniors.
Don't expect anyone else to win a game for you. Maybe you have an NBA future. Maybe you'll marry Kenny Gregory. But you never know when a knee will blow out.
Don't be too hard on your lungs, or by the time you're 40 they will feel 85.
Be careful whose advice you buy, but be patient with those who supply it. Advice is a form of nostalgia. Dispensing it is a way of fishing the past from the disposal, wiping it off, painting over the ugly parts and recycling it for more than it's worth.

In August, a private eye could help you get the information, and in November, you'll have to dig your heels in to get your way. In December, you find out what you need to know, and in February, the money is available again.
Aries (March 21-April 19): Todav is a 6.
Put that energy to good use today by finding more ways to make money. You may have to prime the pump a little by spending some first. Get realistic about how much, however, before you write the check. Your lesson for the next few weeks is financial responsibility, remember?
Taurus (April 20-May 20): Today is a 5.
Gemini (May 21-June 21): Today is a 6.
You may not know whether you're coming or going today. You're trying to be in two places at once. You may be able to do it with the help of another person. If you can get your friends to go here while you're going there, you'll have all your bases covered..
Gemini (May 21- June 21): today is a d.
Not only is there a lot to do today, but you may also be getting some conflicting orders. One person wants you to do this, and another wants you to do that. And you may feel confused. Don't waste time running back and forth. Get them to make up their minds before you do anything at all.
Cancer (June 22; July 22); Today is 7.
You tend to fall for the strong, silent types. It looks like there's somebody like that in your immediate vicinity. Unfortunately, it's hard for the two of you to find much time together. Your social lives are so busy, you may have to make an appointment for lunch.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Today is 4.
Take it slow and easy today. Don't offer your opinion unless asked. Make them beg you for it, because anything less will be ineffective. People have strong opinions of their own today. Most people have their minds already made up, so they're not listening. If that's the case, save your breath.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22); Today is 5.
Virga (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Today is 5.
Your ability to focus should be pretty good today, and that's important, because there will be lots of distractions. You won't be able to stick with one task. You'll be going back and forth, which makes efficiency difficult. That can be your excuse for not getting your main assignment finished.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Today is 6.
Money is a major issue today. There's more coming in, of course, but a lot going out. You might be a little worried that there's not going to be enough to go around, and that worry appears to be based in reality. You can help yourself stay within your budget.
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Today is 5.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Today is 6.
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Today is 5.
You're looking very good, and that's important because there are people you need to convince. Not everyone is on your side yet, but you can win them over. Listen patiently to their considerations, repeating them back if necessary.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Today is 6.
If you can get into a routine, you'll find today's work goes easily. Otherwise, you're going to have a terrible time.
Don't try to argue. Instead, figure out what expected of you and make it happen. The person who he's been leaning on you will back off, and you'll get increased self-esteem.
Aaarauius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Today is a 4.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Today is 7.
You could get into a tug-of-war today. There are strong attractions drawing you in different directions.
One is a gathering of friends you'd really like to attend, but the other is more personal, involving your children or the one you love best.
Aquarius Jan. 20-Feb. 18. Today is a 4.
There ought to be a couple of interesting arguments going on today. They're interesting to you, but the other people might just find them frustrating. You have an objective point of view, or at least you think you do until you get sucked in. Stay analytic so you can be part of the solution.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Today is a 7.
P
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Today is a 7.
You may get out of town this weekend. Conditions are almost right today, but not quite. It looks like work and some sort of personal obligation are in the way of travel, and you may also have a consideration about money. Well, holding onto your job will help with that, and the other conditions should clear up by tomorrow.

lective bargaining agreement.
The contract has a re-opener clause after three years, with both sides agreeing to no-lockout, no-strike clauses.
It sets a salary scale for draft picks of $50,000 for the first four players chosen, $44,000 for the fifth through eighth players and $37,500 for the rest of the players selected in the first round.
Second-round picks get $30,000,

increases of five percent per year in
those scales.

The league and union had agreed to a contract earlier this month, but the deal fell apart a week ago when both sides insisted the other had attempted to change the terms at the last minute. That caused the league to postpone the draft, which had been scheduled for Tuesday.

Rampaging Walker continues hitting surge
ST. LOUIS — Larry Walker followed in a huge hire with a productive day.
Hours after he hit three homers and tied a team record with eight RBI, the Colorado star had two hits and drove in three runs yesterday in the Rockies' 6-2 victory against the St. Louis Cardinals.
Walker's 11-RBI, two game total is two shy of the major league record shared by Nate Colbert and Mark Whiten — both occurring in double-headers.
"It was a good series for me, but I don't want to get too confident." Walker said. "I've been playing long enough that I know tomorrow could be a real (bad) day. I could be 0-for-5, then 0-for-4, then 0-for-3, and the next thing you know I'm back in the tank again."

Walker, the reigning NL batting champion, missed the first seven games of the season with a rib-cage injury, and entered the three-game series with three RBI. He was 7-for-12 in the three games and also threw out a runner at the plate in the fourth.
Threatening calls cause recruit to change mind
JACKSON, Miss. — Canton High basketball standout Alonzo Lane apparently was ready to agree to play for Mississippi until he received
threatening phone calls, his coach said yesterday.
Lane instead signed a national letter of intent with Arkansas yesterday, three days after he canceled a news conference at which he was expected to name Ole Miss as his college choice.
The cancellation came after threats made to his home by callers who claimed to be from Oxford, home of the Ole Miss campus.
"I think that (the threats) swayed him completely," Canton High coach Lewis Love said. "I think he was about to sign with Ole Miss at the time, it's quite disturbing that somebody would do that."
Authorities have not been able to determine if the calls actually came from the Oxford area, or if the calls were a prank.
Lane said yesterday that he didn't want to talk about the threats and was just glad that the recruiting process was over.
"I can't even explain how I feel, I'm overjoyed," Lane said. "After my visit I felt comfortable with them (Arkansas). It seemed like a good opportunity."
Ole Miss coach Rod Barnes was out
of town and unavailable for comment.
Lane, a 6-foot-6, 245-pounder, was a Dandy Dozen pick by The Clarion-Ledger. He averaged 22 points, 15 rebounds and three blocked shots a game as a senior at Canton, which made him a heavily recruited prospect.
On at least two occasions, Lane verbally committed to Mississippi State, but never signed with the Bulldogs. He had also considered Murray State and Southern Mississippi.
Connecticut governor rejects offer for Pats
Rowland said Connecticut's proposal to build a $374 million stadium and guarantee $13 million per year in luxury seat revenues dwarfs the offer by Massachusetts. Rowland also pointed to the agreement the state had signed with Patriots owner Robert Kraft, and the Connecticut Legislature's approval of the deal.
Foreman denies paying kickbacks for fights
HARTFORD, Conn. — Gov. John G. Rowland dismissed the latest proposal by Massachusetts lawmakers to keep the New England Patriots and compared it to Connecticut's dealings with the Hartford Whalers just before the team left for North Carolina in 1997.
The former heavyweight champion was in the grand jury room for less than an hour. On the advice of his lawyer, Foreman would not discuss his testimony.
NEWARK, N.J. — George Foreman testified before a federal grand jury said to be investigating whether the IFB sold rankings and arranged fights in return for kickbacks.
But when asked if he had ever paid a kickback, he said, "No," and also said this was his first appearance before any grand jury.

Kansas to conclude Big 12 play
Jayhawks to battle 'Huskers, Cyclones in weekend games
By Brandon Stinnett sports@kansan.com Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas softball team will wrap up Big 12 conference play this weekend when it plays host to Nebraska and Iowa State in doubleheaders at Jayhawk Field.
Kansas has not seen action since it split a doubleheader with Texas A&M April 25. The team was scheduled to play two games against Creighton Tuesday night, but the doubleheader was canceled because Creighton's field was deemed unplayable.
"It would have been a chance for
us to get two games in to keep us sharp," Kansas Coach Tracy Bunge said. "On the other hand, with the conditions of the field, there was a good chance for someone to get injured. Neither Creighton nor us could afford to get kids hurt."
It was the second time this season games between Kansas and Creighton have been called off. Rain forced the cancellation of an April 14 doubleheader at Jayhawk Field. All together, the weather has forced the cancellation of six games on Kansas's schedule.
"All the rain hasn't been a lot of fun to deal with," Bunge said. "There are a lot of teams in the same boat as us."
Softball
One thing the rain hasn't washed away is the Jayhawks' current hot streak. Kansas (25-24, 6-6) has won 11 of its last 14 games and six of seven at home. During the stretch,
"We know we are capable of beating anybody," freshman Leah Tabb said.
the Jayhawks have moved from eighth to fifth in the Big 12 conference.
Kansas likely will face the weekend's toughest challenge Saturday against Nebraska. The Cornhuskers are 26-15 overall and 8-5 in the Big 12.
The Jayhawks probably will face Jenny Voss, a junior pitcher who was an All-American last season when she guided Nebraska to an undefeated record in conference play and the Big 12 tournament championship. Voss has battled
injuries this season, but she still has compiled a 1.14 ERA and a 17-6 record.
"She hasn't been quite as effective this season," Bunge said. "But when she's on, she's still as tough as anyone in the nation."
Bunge said the Jayhawks were shooting to finish the weekend with at least three wins.
"They are a young team and they've had some problems," Bunge said. "But their record is not necessarily indicative of the way they are playing."
Kansas will face Iowa State Sunday. The Cyclones (21-26, 3-4) are in last place in the conference, but Bunge said the Jayhawks would not take them lightly.
"We have a goal to finish 3-1," she said. "But we are definitely capable of going 4-0."

Records thrown out as tournament starts
By Amanda Kashube sports@kansan.com
Kansas writerwriter
The women's tennis team looks to prove why it's one of the top teams in the Big 12 Conference today by making a run at its first conference title.
The Jayhawks, seeded No. 3 in the tournament, will play either No. 11 Missouri or No. 6 Oklahoma State at 8:30 a.m. today in College Station, Texas. Kansas received a first-round bye yesterday because it placed in the top four in the conference. Texas, Colorado and Texas A&M also received byes.
Earlier this season, Kansas defeated Missouri 7-2 and Oklahoma State 7-2 also.
Coach Jenny Garrity said the Jay hawks had improved their level of play from the beginning of the season.
Kansas finished the season 12-11 overall and 8-3 in the conference. The Jayhawks' three conference losses were to Baylor, Colorado and Texas.
"Our record really doesn't reflect our play," she said. "We can accomplish a tremendous amount when we play like we can play."
If Kansas advances past the quarterfinals, it could face Colorado in the semifinal round.
The series, which Kansas once dominated, has turned into a rivalry the past two seasons. Colorado holds a two-game winning streak against Kansas.
Earlier this season, the Buffaloos defeated Kansas at Robinson Courts, 5-4, and last season, Colorado eliminated Kansas in the semifinals of the tournament. 5-3.
After playing the Buffaloes this
WOMEN'S TENNIS
spring, Garrity said she would have liked to play the match again.
"If we concentrate on our weapons instead of our opponent's weaknesses, we can do well," she said. "If we play aggressive, we can beat anyone."
Kansas will again look to senior Kris Sell to deliver a strong performance in the tournament. Sell, ranked No. 27, won her last home match in straight sets against Texas A&M last Sunday.
"A win over our rival, Texas A&M, was a perfect was for me to end my career." Sell said.
Sell will enter the tournament with a 5-3 conference record.
Juniors Brooke Chiller and Julia Sidorova will also be key in a Kansas victory. Both have compiled winning records in singles and doubles this season.
"We just want to go out there and have fun." Sidorova said.
The team was rewarded this week for its achievements off the court as well.
Freshman Christi Wagenaar was named to the Academic All-Big 12 team on April 23. Wagenaar, a business administration major, posted a 3.8 GPA during the fall of 1998.
She also posted a perfect 4-0 conference singles record at No.5 and No.6 singles.
Cheryl Malliaiah was named Big 12 Player of the Week. The freshman has a 23-18 overall record and 8-3 record in Big 12 competition.

Track teams head east for Indiana Triangular

"I feel confident in how I'm competing because I'm throwing well right now," Russell said. "I just wish I could smooth out some technical problems."
"We'll gear up for this meet more than we did for Wichita State, but we can't do it too much because Conference is coming up," Schwartz said.

Seniors Colby Miller, Marc Romito and sophomore Greg Steele will give Kansas depth on the men's side. All three have been the top finisher for the Jayhawks in a meet this season.

Former collegiate player returns to semi-normal life
Continued from page 1A
Meanwhile, surgeons did everything they could to keep Harker alive.
Surgeons spent the first five hours picking out more than 300 fragments of bone to save brain tissue. Ironically, if Harker's skull had not been crushed severely, his brain wouldn't have been able to swell and he would have died. A hole in his skull the size of a quarter leaked cerebral fluid. To increase his chances of survival, doctors deliberately placed him in a chemically induced coma for five days.
Clark, Harker's coach at K-State, was instrumental in his recovery.
"Coach Clark came down and guided me through several painful times," Harker said.
Clark said that the time he spent at Harker's bedside might have been one of his best coaching jobs ever.
"Brad was in a lot of pain," Clark said. "We would hold hands, and I walked him through situations such as the time he hit a game winning home run against McNeese State. It was very gratifying to see him progress. I left Columbus thinking KSU could go undefeated next year, and I wouldn't have been as successful a coach as I was with Brad."
After numerous other surgeries, Harker faced the grueling work of speech, physical and occupational therapy. For almost two months, he was unable to speak. His weight dropped from a solid 225 pounds to a slender 175. But Harker was determined.
"I wasn't going to let whover did this get the best of me," Harker said.
"this get the best of me," Harker said. Three months after being attacked, Harker was released to go home to Lawrence and continue his therapy.
The attack left him blind in his right eye, ending any chance of making a comeback in baseball. Metal plates hold parts of his face intact and several scars over his right eye remind him how close he was to death.
"I look in the mirror every day, and I see the scars are there," Harker said. "It's come to the point now where instead of worrying about it, I've accepted it. No one wants to hang around someone who feels sorry for themselves."
He continued to talk with detectives working on the case, but no suspect was ever convicted.
Sue Harker said, "We could have hired a private detective but at the time, all our focus was guided towards Brad's recovery."
Harker, who went through hypnosis twice in an effort to recover the memory, believes that the attacker was one of his own teammates.
"I can remember everything about
the attacker except for his face," Harker said. "I remember the attacker saying my name several times, so it had to be someone I knew."
Knowing that his attacker is still out there is difficult for him.
“It’s hard for me when people ask what happened to the guy who did it.” Harker said. “What I would like to know is what I did to make this person so angry with me that he thought he had to kill me. I would like some kind of finish.”
Although the case has no new leads, Ohio Police Detective David Morris insists the case is not on the back burner.
"I have a suspect in mind, and I do random checks on him in his hometown," he said.
Morris said one of three things must happen to solve the case.
"The person who did this is going to have to develop the conscience to come forward; or he's going to have to tell someone about it who comes forward; or Brad is going to have to reach a point where his memory returns and he knows who did it," he said.
In the meantime, Harker is a junior and in his second year at KU, working toward a degree in communications.
"Iused to be able to study the night before an exam and do well," Harker said. "Now I rely on the assistance of tutors and note takers, and I start studying several days in advance."
Someday he would like to be a Division I baseball coach.
"I'd like to stay close to this game by giving back," Harker said.
Harker has helped coach in the Douglas County Amateur Baseball Association for the past two summers. He also enjoys his work with kids at Holcom Park Recreation Center, 2700 W. 27th St.
"I want these kids to realize that if their goal is to play Division I sports, they have to pursue the avenues that will help them reach their goals," he said. "Getting into drugs and alcohol will only set you back."
Lawrence Youth Sports director Lee Ice, Harker's American Legion coach in high school who now works with him at Holcom Park Recreation Center, admires Harker for overcoming adversity.
"Every day he comes out to Holcom with a bounce in his step," Ice said. "Brad is a survivor, and I felt fortunate to have seen him play baseball."
Harker's attitude toward life has changed since the attack.
"I live every day like it could be my last," he said, "Because you never know what might happen."

Intramurals popular spring fun
By Kursten Phelps Special to the Kansan
After the long winter, sunny skies and longer days lead students outdoors for fun and games.
This spring, Recreation Services offers several intramural sports to satisfy students' needs for fun and competition. Softball, sand volleyball, ultimate frisbee, 3-on-3 basketball, wrestling, nine-ball pool and doubles tennis are options for spring intramurals.
Jason Krone, assistant director of intramural, said 105 teams were competing in softball and 35 teams in sand volleyball. There are also 15 ultimate frisbee teams, and 12 teams are playing 3-on-3 basketball.
"We've had a lot of growth in participation over the course of
the year," Krone said. "Except for basketball, we've seen an increase in the number of teams in all sports, especially softball."
Regular-season competition lasts three weeks, with a championship culminating the season.
"We're really excited this year because our softball championships will be a weekend-long tournament May 1 and 2 at Clinton Lake," Krone said. "After playing the whole season at Shenk, they'll get to play on real diamonds with fences, dugouts and real bases."
Becky Mann, Wichita freshman, said she played on the Alpha Chi Omega softball team for many reasons.
"I played three varsity sports in high school, but I knew I wasn't going to continue with it in college. So this is a good way to continue playing sports without
going out for the varsity teams," Mamp said.
Nate Brinson, Edwardsville, Ill., junior, said he played intramurals with his friends at Stephenson Scholarship Hall because he enjoyed the spirit of competition.
"I'm a kind of competitive person, so I like that aspect." Brinson said. "It's just something fun to do."
Krone said, "It gives students the chance to remain in a competitive atmosphere after high school and is also a good way to stav physically active.
"But there's also the social aspect, particularly with the spring sports. Students like to go out and have fun with their friends, and that's really important to the program."
Chris Buckley, Derby junior and a resident assistant at
McCollum Hall, agreed.
"I'm on a softball team with a bunch of guys from the residence hall, and it's a lot of fun," Buckley said. "It gives you something to do on the weekend."
Sarah Swain, Little River first year law student, said she liked intramurals because they were relaxing.
"All the other stuff in college is really stressful," Swain said. "It's great to come out here with friends, relax and meet new people."
Swain also said she liked playing for a coeducational team, which was made up of mostly law students and members of the KU Racquetball Club.
"I think the games are a lot more fun because the teams are coed," Swain said. "Everyone's more laid back."

Commentary
Spring football practice has come to an end. No more football until next August. So, what do we have to look forward to come August?
Spring game outcome offers hope for fall
There were several offensive sparks in Saturday's spring game. For starters, the first team offense looked very impressive on its opening drive. It systematically marched down the field and scored. The play calling was excellent, and Wegner made several short precise passes that allowed the
receivers to run after the catch. Wegner looked sharp in the opening drive, and his passes were right on target.
JOHN GARDNER
While Wegner looked great on the opening drive, it went downhill from there. Wegner is a precise passer for short, quick-hitting routes. When i'

comes to long passes, though, Wegner seems to have no arm. Every time he attempts to pass it deep, which is crucial to keep defenses honest, the ball starts wobbling like a wounded duck and an interception usually results — such as the two he threw Saturday. I like Wegner as a person and think he is very tough and has a big heart, but he can't throw the deep ball. If he is our starter again next year, I am concerned about how we will do.
The wide receivers on this team are great. Byron Gasaway is a stud, and Termaine Fulton and Michael Chandler are pretty good as well. The wide receivers definitely are the strength of this offense. These guys have great hands and good speed — now they just need to find a quarterback who can get the ball to them deep. These receivers have the ability to burn opposing defenses deep, but Wegner rarely is going to be able to get the ball to them. If Allen goes with Wegner at quarterback, I hope to see several quick slants and short out routes where the receivers can get the ball quickly and then use their speed and skills to break free and make significant yardage after the
catch.
The running backs were impressive as well. I was most impressed with sophomore Mike Lewis, whom I had never heard of before Saturday. Lewis had several big runs, and on one of them he lowered his shoulders and trucked the defensive back who was trying to tackle him. It was awesome. This guy brings the hit to the tacklers; he doesn't let them bring the hit to him. I really am excited about this guy.
We also return our two best running backs from last year — Mitch Bowles and David Winbush. Bowles had a few big runs in the scrimmage, but he needs to learn to hang on to the ball — he had two fumbles, at one the goal line. Winbush didn't do much in the scrimmage, but he will be OK in the regular season with his cat-like moves and speed. Adding a little weight wouldn't hurt, though.
As for our defense, I see some problems. Our first-team defense had the ball moved against them pretty consistently by the the second-team offense. There are some bright spots. Dariss Lomax has returned to the team and will be the stud at the linebacker position. If he can play like Patrick Brown and Ron Warner did during the past couple years, we will be OK.
John Williams, Dion Johnson and Jeremy Hanak return on the defensive line, and they need to step up big. If these guys can put pressure on the quarterback and stop the run effectively, we should be in decent shape.
As for our secondary, it looks pretty weak. I am concerned that teams may be able to pass the ball with ease against us. Chad Coellner and Muhammad Abdul-Rahim need to step it up and lead this secondary.
Our entire defense needs to learn how to tackle, to wrap guys up and gang tackle. It got to guys in the backfield several times, but failed to wrap them up and bring them down.
Overall, I think we look pretty good and it should be an exciting year with seven home games and the trip to Notre Dame.

Sports teams at Columbine benefit from company aid
The Associated Press
ARVADA, Colo. — Columbine High School junior Matt Wells took time out from the grieving world around him to crack a smile, chew on some sunflower seeds and talk about baseball.
"It's just good to be smiling and laughing," the 16-year-old said.
Wells, a catcher on the Columbine High School varsity baseball team, watched the junior varsity play Arvada West High School on Wednesday. His classmates smiled and cheered as they played ball, just eight days after teen-age gunmen killed 12 students and a teacher before killing themselves.
Among other things, the gunmen had complained about their treatment at the hands of athletes at Columbine. When they burst into the library on April 20, one of the gunmen yelled: "All jocks stand up! We're going to kill every one of you."
Since the massacre, the suburban school has become a sealed crime scene. Hundreds of backpacks and other personal belongings abandoned in the crisis still litter the hallways and classrooms. School athletic equipment is also unavailable, probably for the rest of the school year.
But thanks to an outpouring of donations and support from the community and the sports world, Columbine's baseball team has uniforms, gloves, balls and everything they need to get back on the field.
Without the equipment and clothing donations, the Columbine Rebels would have been forced to end their season. Wells said.
"We wouldn't have played," he said. "We wouldn't have been able to."
The baseball team has received an estimated $5,000 worth of clothing and gear from Reebok, Mizuno, Denver Athletic Supply and other sports companies. The gifts included dozens of bats, stark navy blue uniforms, never-worn leather gloves and even athletic socks.
"They're taking care of us," said Robin Ortiz, the Columbine baseball coach. "I hate to say it, but it's been like Christmas at times."
rest of the season.
"For a lot of them, it's a chance to start healing," he said.
Team members decided they wanted to play out the rest of the season.
"For a lot of them, it's a chance to start healing," he said. Some players also had the chance to realize a dream. The Colorado Rockies opened their doors to Columbine players Monday, allowing the team to work out in their hitting cages and tour Coors Field.
The Rockies worked with the Denver Police Activities League to help coordinate the donations and support. Nick Arcuri, director of the activities league, said he hoped the efforts showed the teens they were not alone.
The community outpouring has touched some Columbine students. Katie Crona, a junior varsity soccer player with the Rebels, said her team received new uniforms from Adidas and assistance from rival Arapaho High School.
"They've been so wonderful to us." the 14-year-old freshman said. "It's so nice to know they care."
So.ne players said the donations and support will encourage them to play better. But Wells said he is more interested in simply trying to have fun and move beyond the tragedy that put his life on hold.
"It's like getting back to normal life," he said.
LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Bob Baffert knows he made the right choice.
Final entry given prime Kentucky Derby spot
The Associated Press
But early Wednesday, with a 10 a.m. deadline closing in for entering horses in tomorrow's Kentucky Derby, he paced at his barn, cell phone in hand, owners waiting in the wings to see if Baffert would enter his filly. Excellent Meeting.
Finally, after a week of suspense, Baffert figured three chances are better than two in his bid for an unprecedented third consecutive Kentucky Derby victory.
"We entered General Challenge with Gary Stevens; we entered Prime Timber with David Flores; and Excellent Meeting is in the Derby with Kent Desormeaux," Baffert said Wednesday at Barn 33, where his two Derby winners, Silver Charm and Real Quiet, were
walking the shedrow. "The filly is doing great, I feel she earned her way into the race, and I think she's good enough to win the Derby."
At Wednesday evening's draw for post position, Baffert found out where his horses stood — and only Excellent Meeting ended up in a prime spot, No. 6 in a full field of 20 3-year-olds.
Prime Timber will leave from the No. 14 post, and General Challenge from the No. 15 slot. Because the regular starting gate holds only 14 horses, an auxiliary gate will be added for the other six entries.
John and Betty Mabe own both General Challenge and Excellent Meeting, and the entry was made the 3-1 early-morning favorite by Churchill Downs oddsmaker Mike Battaglia.
Prime Timber, owned by Aaron Jones, was the second choice at 7-2.
while Menifee, trained by Elliot Walden, was the third choice at 5-1
General Challenge and Prime Timber finished 1-2 in the Santa Anita Derby, while Excellent Meeting has an impressive four-race winning streak and seven victories in 11 career starts.
Of course, being the favorite is nothing these days for Baffert. And he doesn't really care that it's been 20 years since the favorite won the Derby.
"I was the favorite last year with Indian Charlie," Baffert said. "But we knew Real Quiet was doing the best of the two. You can talk about the jinxes and all that, but who would have thought that a horse that got beat in New Mexico was going to come win the Derby last year? So I think you can throw all that out."
Excellent Meeting also is entered in Friday's Kentucky Oaks, meaning
Baffert has until an hour or so before the Oaks' 5:47 p.m. post time to make a final decision on the filly.
Silverbulletday, also trained by Baffert and owned by Mike Pegram, is the odds-on favorite in the Oaks.
If Excellent Meeting goes in the Derby, it would be the first time since 1984 that two fillies ran for the roses. Three Ring, who won her last two races by 6 1/4 lengths and 14 lengths, respectively, is the other. In '84, trainer D. Wayne Lukas sent out Althea and Life's Magic.
"Right now I think she will run in the Derby," Baffert said, "but I've been known to change my mind. A few times."
If all 20 start, it would be the first full field since 1984, and just the 13th time there been a field of 20 or more horses. After 23 started in the 100th derby in 1974, Churchill Downs limited the field to 20.
Rams release lineman to seek leading rusher
The Associated Press
ST. LOUIS — The St. Louis Rams have freed up salary cap money aimed at signing Marshall Faulk. But it cost Zach Wiegler his job.
Wiegert, a three-year starter on the offensive line, agreed to a $3.2 million contract just a little more than a month ago, when he was named the Rams' transition player. He was released Wednesday as the Rams began trying to sign Fauk the AFC's second-lead
grandfather rusher last season. St. Louis acquired Faulk from Indianapolis two weeks ago.
Wiegert's contract like
most NFL contracts, was not guaranteed.
"Zach was totally shocked and hurt and disappointed and angry," said his agent, Jim Steiner.
The Rams flew Wiegert to St. Louis from Nebraska, and coach Dick Vermelia broke the news to him — face-to-face — in a meeting that lasted more than an hour Wednesday at Rams Park.
"It's a tough thing to do, and not a lot of fun," Vermeil said. "The timing isn't great."
Vermeil said he didn't want to cut a defensive player because the defense had taken some hits to
fund the teams offseason makeover on offense. Linebacker Eric Hill was released, and the Rams chose not to re-sign free agent linebacker Roman Phifer and free agent cornerback Ryan McNeil.
"Now we have an opportunity to get another outstanding offensive player (Faulk), and I couldn't go back to the defense and get the money from that side of the salary cap." Vermeil said. "Zach is the victim. He's the victim of the salary cap procedure we have in the National Football League. That's all there is to it."
Steiner said, "it's a terrible way to do business."
By definition, a transition player is supposedly one of a team's better players. Under league rules, a player given the transition designation is entitled to a one-year salary equal to the average of the 10 highest paid players at that position in the previous year. For offensive lineman, that number this offseason is $3.187 million.
In return for making that one year offer to a player who would otherwise be an unrestricted free agent, the team gets the right to match any contract offers from other teams.
"When you're 'transitioned' and you accept it, certainly you would think that the club would act responsibly and ethically by honoring that contract," Steiner said.
Kentucky center, guard to transfer
The Associated Press
LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Center Michael Bradley, who set a Kentucky record for field goal percentage, and guard Ryan Hogan have left the team, giving the Wildcats only seven returning scholarship players.
Bradley's departure creates a potentially gaping hole at center for the Wildcats, who are still awaiting a decision by Bradley's backup, Jamaal Magoire, on whether he'll leave early for the NBA draft.
HUSKY
"I'm disappointed that Mike and Ryan have decided to leave the University of Kentucky, but we wish them well in their future endeavors," coach Tubby Smith said in a statement.
Smith was unavailable for further comment.
Kentucky athletic director C.M. Newton said both players told him they thought it was in their best interests to transfer without giving any further reason.
"It's disappointing when you have any young man leave your program prematurely," he said. "In this particular situation, it's some concern because of the timing of it. It's very late for us to be notified of this."
Newton said the rash of transfers in college basketball this spring was not just a Kentucky problem, but a national problem that needs to be addressed.
The Wildcats, meanwhile, added one inside player yesterday when junior-college transfer Nate Knight, a 6-foot-8, 220
pound forward-center, signed a national letter of intent to play for the Wildcats. Knight is the younger brother of Los Angeles Lakers forward Travis Knight.
The Wildcats still have three available scholarships to give if Magloire decides to return for his senior season, and four if he departs, team spokesman Brooks Downing said.
Bradley, a 6-10 center, started all 37 games last season and averaged 9.8 points and 4.9 rebounds in 21.9 minutes per game.
re briefly led the nation in field goal percentage and finished the season shooting a school-record 65.7 percent from the field.
Hogan, nephew of former Kentucky star Kevin Grevey, started twice and played in 35 of 37 games. He averaged 3.7 points in 9.5 minutes per game.
Bradley and Hogan have not decided where they will transfer, the school's statement said.
Neither player was available for comment.
Bradley's departure creates big questions about the Wildcats' inside game, once expected to be a strength.
John Stewart, a 7-foot Kentucky recruit from Indianapolis, collapsed and died while playing in an Indiana high school regional tournament in March. Another Kentucky recruitment from the fall, 6-9 forward Marquis Estill of Richmond, Ky., has undergone surgery on both knees.
Kentucky finished 28-9 last season, falling one game short of making its fourth straight NCAA tournament Final Four appearance. The Wildcats will add two highly touted freshmen next season, 6-10 forward Marvin Stone of Huntsville. Ala., and 6-4 guard Keith Bogans of Alexandra, Va.

SPORT OF THE WEEK
Wrestling slams into Lawrence
'Violent soap opera' enjoys renewed success
Bv Ezra Svkes
By Ezra Sykes
esykes@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
The Psychotic Sandman paces outside the ring.
"Get in there, you sorry sack," one audience member yells. "There ain't no timeouts in wrestling."
The Sandman takes notice of the ridicule, runs to the edge of the audience and responds with a thunderous "shut up!"
In a flash, he turns around and jumps into the ring to face his enemy. He grabs big Daddy's head and flips the massive foe over his shoulder onto the bouncy blue mat below. Several punches, a body slam and a vicious clothesline later, the Sandman prevails and the referee raises his hand to signal that the camouflage and combat boot-adorned Sandman has won.
Gloating in his victory, he points to the crowd and asks, "Got something to say now?"
Ahh, the drama.
Ahh, the violence.
Ahh. professional wrestling.
Wednesday night at Coyote's night club, 1003 E. 23rd, Lawrence got its first taste of live pro wrestling courtesy of the American Wrestling Federation. Highlights included the midget wrestling world championship, a cat fight and a match featuring wrestling legend Greg "The Hammer" Valentine.
As spectators emptied pitchers of beer and heckled their least favorite competitors, wrestlers stirred up the crowd and inflicted pain on their opponents via head butts and pile drivers.
But come on. That stuff is just act ing, right?
"Acting...what acting?" said R.J. Von-merveld, who watched the matches from the first row of folding chairs.
Vonmerveldt, Wichita junior, said he had been watching more and more pro wrestling on TV in the last year but said that you couldn't beat old-school WWF—the first golden age of pro wrestling in the 1980s that gave birth to names such as Hulk Hogan, "Hacksaw" Jim Dugan and Jake "The
"Junk Yard Dog was my hero," he said.
Vonmerveld explained the resurgence of pro wrestling these days — a comeback marked by the ubiquitous "Stone Cold" Steve Austin T-shirts and success of shows such as TNT's WCW Monday Night Nitro.
Snake" Roberts.
"It's a popular way for people to let out stress by seeing big guys beat up each other," he said. "I think that people who give this sport a lot of flak have never really experienced it. They've never been down by the ring."
BECKY
But regardless of whether or not a chop to the throat or a knee to the forehead really hurts, for some, wrestling is real as can be.
"Little Kato" has been midget wrestling for the last 13 years of his life.
"I've enjoyed it," he said, walking around before the matches began last night. "I make good money and I get to see the world, places I would have never been able to see otherwise."
Kato, who calls Oakland, Calif., home, explained his reasons for getting into the business.
Randy Cook, president of the American Wrestling Federation, said that pro wrestling had been especially popular recently in college towns such as Lawrence.
"I was tired of working 40-hour weeks; I didn't have the greatest education," said the 4-foot-6 Kato. "I always played sports in high school but realized I could never turn pro because of my size, But wrestling gave me chance."
"They've done a really good job of marketing it," he said. "I mean what could be better than a soap opera with violence?"
And as for those who criticize the violence and absurdity of pro wrestling, Cook has a simple answer: "It's America. Who cares?"
