BELGRADE, Yugoslavia — A U.S. fighter jet went down in hostile Serb territory on Sunday, but the pilot was plucked to safety by NATO search-and-rescue forces.
The alliance pounded Yugoslavia with new attacks, and a spokesman said there would be "no reward" for Yugoslav President Slobodan Milosevic for freeing three U.S. soldiers.

"What he's got to understand is that the decision that's going to impress us most is the decision to order troops out of Kosovo" and "clearly and unambiguously" accept an armed international force, said Jamie Shea, NATO's chief spokesman.
NATO struck a metalworks factory in Vallejo that it had attacked before, the
heavy anti-aircraft fire could be heard in Belgrade on Sunday evening. The city was plunged into darkness shortly afterward when electrical power failed. Local radio in Pancevo, a town just outside of Belgrade, reported that the blackout was caused by NATO attacks, but it gave no other details. Blackouts were reported in several other towns as well.
state-run Tanjug agency said. A missile hit Sremska Mitrovica, 45 miles northwest of Belgrade, killing one woman and wounding several other civilians, the private Beta news agency said.
Forty days into the air strikes, refugees continued to stream out of Kosovo by the thousands. Some entering Albania said Serb border police had prevented women and children from Kosovo's second-largest city, Prizen, from crossing into the country on Sunday.
Some refugees said they saw groups of Prizren residents, mostly women and children, walking back toward the city from the border and said they had been turned back by Serb border police.
Merita Nucal, who is eight months pregnant and was allowed in Sunday, said the border guards told others, "You wanted NATO—now the women and children will stay until they get killed by NATO."

Weather, music set stage for Day on the Hill fun

Recipe for Day on the Hill: Add one part sunshine to a blanket of soft turf, add your favorite people, and mix in six parts blaring music. Sprinkle with curious dogs and amateur Frisbee throwers. Serve at about 70 degrees Fahrenheit…
Day on the Hill appeared to come out of the oven looking pretty good this year. Weather conditions were perfect Saturday, and a crowd that seemed to constantly swell throughout the day came to watch the six music groups perform. The lineup consisted of Starsky, Frogpond, Son Venezuela, Panel Donor, Poster Children and headliner HUM.
Matt Dunehoo, SUA live music coordinator, had no complaints.
I here had been some doubts, but everything seemed to come together at the last minute," he said, mentioning a surprise performance by Poster Children. "It's been a show that will keep Day on the Hill alive."
High school students, college students, families, dogs, ferrets and junior high skateboarders attended.
Oh yeah, and the musicians.
Justine Volpe, bass player for Frogpond, stood in the shade mingling with fans and friends after her band's performance.

Speech addresses imprisonment of Leonard Peltier
By Dan Curry
Kanson staff writer
By Dan Curry
dcurry@kansan.com
Iron bars in the Leavenworth Federal Penitentiary keep Leonard Peltier from his freedom, but they could not prevent the former first lady of France from meeting with him Friday morning.
"He spoke very little of himself," Danielle Mitterrand said Friday afternoon to about 200 people at the Haskell Indian Nations University Auditorium. "He spoke of his family, of his community and of the life of Native Americans in the United States, and how little by little they have been obliged to give up their culture."
Speaking through a translator, Mitterrand pledged her support for Pelletier's freedom.
"I don't think we have to sit and wait without doing anything," she said. "The French have become very mobilized around Leonard Peltier's problem. We have people that are militants that have found out how to make the situation known. There are demonstrations. There are exhibits."
Mitterrand visited Peltier at the request of the Leonard Peltier Defense Committee, which has its headquarters in Lawrence. Peltier is serving two consecutive life sentences for the deaths of two FBI agents in a 1975 shootout at the Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota.
Four men were arrested and accused of murder. Only Pelletier, who has maintained his innocence from the beginning, was convicted.
Peltier and his supporters, who include former Attorney General Ramsey Clark and Archbishop Desmond Turn, think he is a political prisoner.
PETER E. MIDDLETON
Peltier: is serving two consecutive life sentences.
Mittterrand had spoken with U.S. Justice Department officials on Pelletier's behalf. The result had been discouraging.
"We left very frustrated," Mitterrand said. "They listened to us, but they did not give us answers."
Mitterrand said she would continue to fight on Peltier's
behalf, now that his face was imprinted in her mind.
There is a resistance stronger than genocide. Stronger than violence. Stronger than misery," she said. "In his cause we see that today."

Friday about human rights.
See page 3A
Although it was good to hear Mitterrand speak about Peltier, Raven Heavy Runner, president of First Nations Student Association, said it was ironic that it took foreign dignitaries to bring attention to Peltier's plight.
'people in other countries know more about what's going on here than we do,' he said.

Re-vote possible on election complaints
By Heather Woodward
hwoodward@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
The hearing board of the Student Senate elections commission might conduct new votes on complaints about alleged campaign violations that it ruled on in a closed session.
The board ruled on several complaints on April 19, including complaints against the recreation task force, Delta Force and the YOU coalition.
Winter also indicated that the elections commission should sign a consent agreement that the hearing board would be subject to the Kansas Open Meetings Act.
Douglas County Counselor Winton Winter suggested in a letter written Friday that the hearing board re-vote on its rulings in a public session.
J. D. Jenkins, Nunemaker senator, said in his complaint that he thought the board's meeting should have been open and that the board's rulings should be overturned since the hearing board voted on election complaints in a closed session.
He also requested that the referendum on a new campus recreation center be suspended until the board re-voted on his complaint, which alleged that the recreation task force misled students.
Winter's decision came after three students filed two complaints to the state attorney general on April 21 alleging that the board should conduct its hearing on election complaints in open session.
Winter said in his letter that, since the hearing board operates as a quasi-judicial body, it was required by the act to vote and hear evidence in an open session. The board can deliberate in a closed session but must vote and hear evidence in an open session, his letter said.
Elections Commissioner Jennifer Watkins said she would confer with University General Counsel Victoria Thomas early this week before deciding how to address Winter's decision.
Ann Premiere, editor of the University Daily Kansan, and Nadia Mustafa, Student Senate reporter for the Kansan, filed a joint complaint because they wanted the hearing board to conduct their hearings in an open session.
State law reads that after a formal vote, evidence can be heard in a closed session only when it is deemed as "adversely or favorably affecting a person as a student, patient or resident of a public institution." However, if the person or institution in question asks that evidence be heard in an open session, then the board must honor that request.
"I was glad to hear the county counsel's decision," Mustafa said. "The public's right to witness votes by a board such as this—especially about issues pertinent to the student body at a public institution funded by students—should be upheld."
"My recommendation to the commission will be to follow Mr. Winter's recommendations," Watkins said. "We didn't intend for this to be some secret meeting. We just wanted to make sure students' rights were protected."
Jenkins was out of town yesterday and was unavailable for comment.
Watkins said the elections commission had been unaware it was violating the act and had voted in a closed session based on recommendations from the University General Counsel's office. If the commission had been aware of the law, it could have been subject to up to $500 in fines and the board's decisions could have been invalidated.
The deadline to file new complaints was 5 p.m. on April 19. But the elections commission may reconvene to re-vote on previous complaints that were voted on in a closed session.
Watkins said the public meeting would be announced in the Kansan.
Amanda Weinberg, elections commission chairwoman, said she did not know whether the results of the votes would change.
"We will have a re-vote, but we haven't heard any new evidence that would change the results." Weinberg said.

Prepharmacy students cash in on donation
The University of Kansas Endowment Association announced last week that it had received $25,000 to establish a scholarship fund for prepharmacy students at the University.
The gift comes to the Endowment Association from the K.T. Wiedemann Foundation Inc., of Wichita.
Douglas Pringle, president of the foundation, graduated from KU in 1976.
Pringle said he wanted the money to finance scholarships for two prepharmacy students each year.
Jack Fincham, dean of the school of pharmacy, said all the other scholarships in the school of pharmacy are for students who have already been admitted to the school.
Ten need-based scholarships will be created with the money, Fincham said. There will be two $2,500 scholarships available each academic year for the next five years.
"We in the school are so very appreciative of this tremendously generous gift," Fincham said. "It will allow us to continue to attract excellent students into our professional program."

Eavesdropper receives probation, no jail time
Shawn Mikulich, a 25-year-old KU student, was sentenced Friday to 24 months probation and 40 hours of community service after pleading guilty on April 1 to eavesdropping.
Charges were filed against him after his female neighbor discovered three holes drilled in a wall that adjoined their residences, making it possible for him to see into her bathroom.
The holes were drilled between Oct. 10 and Nov. 10 in the 700 block of North Seventh Street.
If Mikulich does not fulfill the requirements of his probation, he could face 12 months of jail time.
Mikulich's neighbor wrote a victim's statement in which she did not ask that he spend time in jail. Douglas County District Judge Paula Martin said the statement, Mikulich's lack of a previous criminal history and the fact that he was in counseling contributed to her decision to give him probation rather than jail time.

Higher education bill sparks Regents planning
TOPEKA — With a historic bill awaiting Gov. Bill Graves' signature, it's now full speed ahead for higher education reform in Kansas.
Refinements are inevitable, as a reconstituted Board of Regents works with a new management structure, but the dominant theme Friday of those who will use it was that a critical first step has been taken.
"I view this as a historic moment in Kansas history," said present Board of Regents Chairman Bill Docking, of Arkansas City.
"July 1 (effective date of the changeover) is just around the corner, but the current Board of Regents will be ready. We've got a lot to do between now and then, but we'll get it done."
Docking already has a transition team at work, and plans to have it meet again next week.
It already has a rough plan for what needs to transpire before the revamped Board of Regents takes over in two months. It was drafted by Ed Hammond, president of Fort Hays State University and a member of the transition team.
Under the plan, developed for discussion purposes, the board would merge its present four committees into three. Hammond also proposed a meeting schedule for the three commissions created under the board — one to govern the six state universities; one to supervise the 19 community colleges and 11 vocational-technical schools; and one to coordinate all higher education activities.

Star Wars madness hits retailers across nation
NEW YORK — The Force is with Star Wars fans, and it's telling them to hit the toy stores early and spend, spend, spend
The most hyped line of movie-themed merchandise in history — for the unreleased Star Wars: Episode I — The Phantom Menace — is finally going on sale on a studio-imposed schedule, and fans and retailers are not wasting a minute.
In an unprecedented move, Toys R Us stores around the country decided to open their doors at 12:01 a.m. today for an all-night selling marathon of movie toys based on the movie. Some FAO Schwartz stores planned to open from midnight to 2 a.m.
Even the virtual stores were ready for midnight surfers with an itch to buy.
Internet merchants Amazon.com and eToys planned to open their online Star Wars stores just after midnight.
Wal-Mart and Kmart called in extra staff for their 24-hour stores to handle the post-midnight crowds. Many stores planned to limit the number of items a customer could buy to prevent immediate sale-outs.

Analysts estimate that sales of merchandise tied to the movie could top $2 billion this year alone, with an estimated $1 billion coming just from toys.
Missing space capsule found buried in Atlantic
CAPE CANEVERAL, Fla. — Lost at sea for 38 years, astronaut Gus Grissom's Mercury capsule was found during the weekend by an underwater salvage team that had been searching for the spacecraft for nearly two weeks.
Liberty Bell 7 is still 3 miles beneath the Atlantic's surface and about 300 miles offshore. The cable to a remote-operated rover that had been used to identify and photograph the capsule snapped in the rough sea Saturday night. Salvagers are returning to Port Canaveral and will have to wait for another few weeks or even longer before going back to recover the spacecraft.
The only U.S. spacecraft ever lost following a successful mission, it's still shiny in spots with an intact window and the name "Liberty Bell" clearly visible. Even the fake crack that was painted on the exterior to replicate the real Liberty Bell is still visible, as are the single marks left by the explosives that blew out the hatch after splashdown on July 21, 1961.
Liberty Bell 7 sank to the bottom of the ocean after Grissom's successful 15-minute suborbital flight. The explosive bolts that blow open the hatch detonated prematurely, and helicopter rescuers were unable to lift the waterlogged spacecraft from the sea.

British police charge man in fatal bombings
LONDON — Police charged a man with murder Sunday in a nail-bombing campaign against gays and ethnic minorities that killed three people and wounded more than 100. He operated alone and was not linked to neo-Nazi groups that claimed responsibility, authorities said.
David Copeland, a 22-year-old engineer, was seen on closed-circuit TV in the neighborhood where the first blast occurred April 17, police said. He was arrested early Saturday at his home in Cove, southwest of London, where police seized explosive material.
Copeland has been charged with the deaths of three people in the worst explosion — a nail-bombing Friday at a gay pub in central London — and with similar attacks April 17 and April 24 in London districts with large ethnic minorities. A total of 115 people were wounded.
He will appear in court Monday, Metropolitan Police Deputy Commissioner Alan Frv said.

NATO loses two jets, continues intense attacks
Continued from page 1A
release. They later flew to a U.S. base in Germany and will be reunited with their families on today.
NATO blamed the F-16 crash on engine failure and said it was investigating.
In a pair of setbacks for NATO's air force, an American F-16 crashed in western Serbia and the alliance reported that a U.S. Marine Corps AV-8B Harrier had gone down in the Adriatic Sea the previous day. The pilots of both planes were rescued in good health, the alliance said.
Yugoslav authorities said their anti-aircraft gunners had shot the fighter-bomber down. Serbian television showed footage of metal chunks of the wreckage, some with writing in English, near the village of Nakucani, 50 miles west of Belgrade.
Allied search-and-rescue units picked up the fighter-bomber's pilot two hours after the pre-dawn crash near the Bosnia-Serbia border. Shea said.
It was the first allied plane to go down over Yugoslavia since a U.S. F-117 stealth fighter crashed on March 27. The pilot of that plane also was rescued.
NATO also said it was responsible for bombing a bus north of the Kosovo capital, Pristina, on Saturday. The Yugoslav Foreign Ministry said the attack killed 47 people and seriously injured 17. Grisly footage on Serb television showed body parts and the ripped-up shell of the bus.
Alliance officials said it was "unfortunate" that a bus had crossed the bridge, which it called a military target.
"When they allow public traffic over these bridges, they risk a lot of lives of their public citizens," said Col. Konrad Freytag at a NATO military briefing in Belgium.
NATO kept up intense attacks Sunday on Kosovo and elsewhere in Yugoslavia, making more than 600 sorties over a 24-hour period.
Early yesterday, Tanjug reported the strongest attack yet on Novi Sad, Yugoslavia's second-largest city. Eleven missiles hit a refinery, causing a huge fire and touching off explosions, the news agency said.
NATO also hit targets on Mount Gotes, south of Pristina, on the nearby Bep-populated Gracanica village, and as many as seven missiles hit a spa near the Kosovo town of Kursumlija along the road north to Belgrade, Beta reported.
The alliance launched the air campaign to force Milosevic to accept a peace deal for Kosovo, including widespread autonomy for the province and 28,000 NATO troops to enforce it.
Ethnic Albanians made up about 90 percent of Kosovo's prewar population of 2 million people. More than 600,000 of them have fled Kosovo and Serb forces since NATO's air campaign began March 24.

Danielle Mitterrand speaks at Haskell
Former French first lady addresses human rights
1976

Danielle Mitterrand, former first lady of France, visited Lawrence Friday to plead for human rights, something members of the KU community said she is best-known for.
"I think of her as a longtime sort of socialist activist," he said. "She was friends with Che Guevara."
Guevara was a Marxist Revolutionary in Latin America and figured heavily in the communist revolution in Cuba.
More recently, Mitterrand and her group, France Liberté, have supported Nelson Mandela in South Africa, Abdullah Ocalan and his fight for Kurdish national rights, and a pair of internationally known political prisoners in the United States.
The first is Mumia Abu-Jamal, an activist and journalist who is on death row in Pennsylvania for the murder of a policeman. She was in Philadelphia recently to speak with the mayor there and attend the Million for Mumia March.
The second is Leonard Peltier, whose imprisonment in Leavenworth Federal Penitentiary for the murder of FBI agents on a reservation brought her to Lawrence.
Cornel Pewwardy, assistant professor of teaching and leadership, played the flute at Friday's event. He said that he was impressed with Mitterrand's commitment.
"I think that for a person of her stature, she's gone out of her way to find out about oppressed peoples," he said.
Sandrine Airoldi, graduate teaching assistant
in French from Besançon, France, said she was glad Mitterrand was interested in Peltier's situation and the situation of Native Americans in general.
Airoldi, who attended the speech, said she was also impressed with the way Mitterrand did not use her husband's image.
"She's trying to keep her own person despite being the first lady of France for 14 years," she said.
Sweets said many people thought a lot of former president Francois Mitterrand's positions were influenced by his wife.
Danielle Mitterrand explained her motivation through a translator Friday night.
"We cannot remain indifferent," she said. "We are all concerned together, and if peace is to come into the world, it will have to be the entire world or none of it."

Library dean candidate to give lecture
By Kristi Reimer
kreimer@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
The second of three finalists for the dean of libraries position will give a public presentation at 10 a.m. today in Alderson Auditorium at the Kansas Union.
The presentations are an opportunity for everyone on campus to be involved in the interview process, said Diana Carlin, chairwoman of the search committee and associate professor of communication studies.
"We decided this was a very important position to the entire University." Carlin said.
The dean candidates will give a 20-minute speech on a topic of their choice and then answer questions for up to 40 minutes. Today's presentation is by Sarah Watstein, director of academic
user services at J.B. Cabell Library at Virginia Commonwealth University.
Keith Russell, deputy director of the National Agricultural Library in Washington, D.C., gave his presentation April 26. Barbara Dewey, director of information and research services at University of Iowa Libraries, will give hers at 3:30 Wednesday in Spencer Auditorium at the Spencer Museum of Art.
A fourth candidate, Linda Dobb, withdrew from consideration for the position last week. Carlin said Dobb's decision was the result of another job opportunity at her university.
The University of Kansas is looking for someone to replace William Crowe, who will become senior librarian at Spencer Research Library on July 1.
Crowe has been both vice chancellor for information services and dean of libraries, but when he steps down, Associate Vice Chancellor Marilu Goodyear will become vice chancellor, and one of the final candidates will become dean. The new dean will answer to Goodyear.
The dean of libraries oversees the University's collection of 3.2 million books and 27,000 journals. The dean also is responsible for a $14 million budget, according to the position announcement posted on the libraries' Web site.
Carlin said the three biggest challenges facing the new dean were typical of library administrators everywhere: budget, space and technology.
"There will be some definite creativity needed." Carlin said. "Someone who can stretch dollars, use space more effectively and decide what to put online."

"It was rough," she said, explaining how the band had been concentrating on preparing for a 10-day tour with the Goo Goo Dolls.

"It's totally different," she said.
"Playing outdoors you get beautiful days like today and there's usually a good vibe. Everyone is laid back. In bars you play later, it's dark and
there's alcohol involved, making everything a little bit crazier."
Justin Poplin, Baldwin City junior, and Scott Wedel, Newton freshman, sat shirtless in a small, gray couch they had carried from their fraternity house. Poplin said members of the Triangle fraternity had been bringing a couch to Day on the Hill for about the past five years.
Although Poplin had a good time listening to Frogpond, he thought the lineup lacked variety.
"They do sound the same," he said.
"I'd like to see them bring in bigger names. The Jayhawk Music Festival has brought in bands like Cake and Everclear. It'd be nice to see the University do that."
Michael Snyder, Lenexa freshman, spent the day lying down in a tent as a promotion for Wilderness Discovery in the Kansas Union, where students can rent camping equipment.
Snyder, surrounded by a cooking kit and a camp stove, said he had mixed feelings about the music.

"Frogpond was really good and I'm looking forward to HUM," officer Joe Jaramillo said.
But there was a little controversy about the music.
Officer R.J. Linzer hesitated. "It's a little hard for me," he said.

Student Housing must not lapse in maintaining scholarship halls
The Department of Student Housing should be congratulated for pushing ahead on a new women's scholarship hall that is popularly, though not officially, dubbed Amini 2. However, the department must not let the excitement of building a new hall detract from the maintenance and renovation of the other scholarship halls.
The scholarship halls provide a prestigious living experience at the University of Kansas and a valuable tool for recruiting and retaining some of the University's brightest students. The uniqueness of the living environment is something that few universities, no matter how prestigious, offer. The long lists of people waiting to get into the scholarship halls, while residence hall rooms sit empty, speak to their value for the University.
The building of 'Amini 2' should not detract attention from other residences.
The new women's hall will be almost identical in design to Amiina Scholarship Hall, which was built in 1992. It also will even out the current gender gap — there are five men's halls but only four for women — and will be a welcome addition to the scholarship hall community.
There is a danger, however. In all the frenzy about the construction of the new hall, it would be easy to forget about the other nine. But that is something the Department of Student Housing cannot allow to happen if it wants the attractiveness of the scholarship
hall community to remain compelling.
First-class students deserve first-class student housing.
Although three of the halls are more than 50 years old, student housing has done a reasonably good job of maintaining and renovating them. For instance, Sellards Scholarship Hall, the hall most recently renovated, was refurbished before the Fall 1997 semester.
However, other halls show some wear. Stephenson Scholarship Hall's bathrooms need to be remodeled. Battenfeld Scholarship Hall's kitchen and dish room need a make over. Several of the halls don't have air conditioning.
Housing needs to make sure it does not shove these problems aside as it concentrates on the new hall. To do so would be to degrade the scholarship hall system and, ultimately, the University.

Bike lane's loss aids campus parking
Parking always has been a problem for residents of scholarship halls, and there is a plan that may help alleviate this by adding 30 to 35 new spaces. There is a catch: The proposal would remove a city bike lane.
The bike lane between 13th and 14th streets on Louisiana Street rarely is used. Though there is an outlet for more bike lanes throughout campus and Lawrence, it is apparent that the parking situation also is in need of improvement, with the scholarship halls in the most dire need of additional parking.
Though there exist some who would be inconvenienced by the loss of this bike lane, there are more people who are inconvenienced by the lack of parking at that location. The bike lane
Removing a Louisiana Street bicycle lane between 13th and 14th streets is necessary.
rarely is used, and there is little doubt that the new parking spaces would be in constant use.
The use of the area that would benefit the most people is to eliminate the bike lane and add parking. Most would say that keeping the bike lane and adding parking would be the absolute best, but this appears to be a situation where that is not possible. When obtaining the best for everyone is not possible, we must settle for what is best for the most people. Adding
parking spaces benefits many who have to park in areas that are far away when their lot is full at a scholarship hall.
Supporting the removal of this bike lane does not mean that plans to add bike lanes should be abolished. The campus does need bike lanes, just not the one in existence.
As more and more residents of scholarship halls drive, there must be some measure to have supply meet the demand for parking. The only two choices are to add parking or restrict the sale of parking passes. To give more people the opportunity to possess an automobile, adding parking is the best solution. Adding the parking may require the removal of the bike lane, but the benefits outweigh the costs.

Perspective
A year ago I was struggling through 18 hours of classes in an attempt to finish school in four years. It was going to be tough, but I was going to make it. A
Graduate school looms despite severe senioritis
fourth year with fifteen semester hours and I could walk down the hill in May 1999 to grab my degrees in journalism and English.
And then last fall it dawned on me, the total stupidity of my actions.
PETER HUGHSON
Where was I going in life? I have no legitimate job-getting skills, except, of course, my ability to crack wise at the expense of higher-ups. I have yet to find someone to share my cardboard box with.
Nick Bartkoski opinion@kansan.com
On top of this, the real world has concerns that we don't even fathom in college. For example, how many college students need prostate examinations?
With these realizations in hand, I took the bold decisive action any man in my position would take. I scaled back my graduation date to December and began looking at grad school programs. As it turns out, the University of Kansas does not actually offer a master's degree in "Clown Arts." Right now, it only has a doctoral program and is scraping together the funding to expand.
As a concession to the existence of the real world, I'm actually looking to get a legitimate degree as a grad student that would balance my useless bachelor's degrees. Ultimately, I've made a commitment to another three years of school.
This is a decision that seems to be a good one, even though I won't be more employable. Only a plague that would kill all the able-bodied men and most of the women could make me employable.
Instead, it's a good decision based on all the military skirmishes the United States has seen fit to get into. Although it's true that the Iraqi and Serb bombings have not escalated to the point where people start getting drafted, it has been enough to inspire yellow bellies such as myself to fear the draft. Classrooms or Canada, that's my motto.
Ultimately, the whole hiding-from-the-real world-behind-the-security-blanket-of-academia has been a good idea, or at least it was
until I was stricken by an unforeseen problem.
I have developed senioritis.
Four years ago, as a wide-eyed freshman everything attracted my attention. Whether it was learning about how broadcasting developed or reading "A Midsummer Night's Dream," there was excitement in my classes. Sure, there were a few things that didn't sit right, such as my economics class or how terrible the class on the film medium was, but those were minor bumps along a very interesting road.
Four years of writing papers the night before and getting away with it has so ruined me that now I'm writing papers in the hours before they're due.
Now I trudge to class like a man condemned, when I wake up for class, that is. As pathetic as it has become, I'm sleeping through classes that begin at 12:30. When in class, half the time is spent looking at my watch, and the other half is spent feigning interest. I've even lost the will to doodle.
Not that I'm looking forward to the working world. I'm actually looking backward to ages 3 to 5 when I was old enough to run around and do stuff but young enough that I didn't have school. In an ideal world, I'd be able to groggy stumble awake at noon and spend the rest of the day playing Nintendo, reading, watching TV and hanging out with friends.
Essentially, I've come to hate every academic part of academia, and yet now, I'm committed to another three years of putting on my pseudo-intellectual stare and heading to class.
It used to be that every reading assignment was completed the night before it was discussed in class. Now I'm lucky if it's completed the night before the test.
Besides, how hard can it be to fake your way through a master's thesis?
Unfortunately, no such environment exists in the world. The closest possible world exists in the knowing wink found in academia's disapproval of forsaking one's responsibilities for such behavior.
Senioritis aside, I just have to keep putting in the hours and playing the game if I want to live in this responsibility-free world.
Bartkoski is a Basehor senior in journalism and English.
Feedback
Phelps story spreads hateful message
Given the enormous number of people that are affected by his hatred at the University of Kansas, the Kansan's decision to plaster the front page with pictures of children holding hateful signs and devote more space to him than any other article was wrong.
I am appalled at the article in Friday's University Daily Kansan that highlights the hate that Fred Phelps preaches. Giving him publicity only furthers his cause. He thrives on the press because his message is delivered to thousands more people than any protest could.
Erika Nutt
Wichita senior
As a member of several student organizations at the University, I would have given anything to have the enormous amount of publicity that Fred Phelps received. I hope that the Kansan remembers the hundreds of student organizations that directly need publicity before they further the hateful message of Phelps again.
Late professor inspired colleagues
I should like to pay public tribute to John Senior, late professor of classies, who died April 8. He was one of the two best teachers I have known during my 43 years at the University of Kansas, as well as during my long career as a student.
I taught with him in the Integrated Humanities program, a four-semester sequence of great books classes for freshmen and sophomores during the '70s. This was a hugely successful project, attracting and retaining very large numbers of students. (The third teacher of these courses—and the second of my best teachers—was Frank Nellick, professor of English, who died a few years ago.)
I can honestly say that I never had any conversation
The best thing I can say about myself is that John was my friend.
He once said in a class that the proximate — as distinguished from the immediate and ultimate — purpose of teaching was, as with the Socratic dialogues, to provide an opportunity for friendship. No one I have known was more successful in achieving that end than John Senior — unless it was Frank Nelick. Hundreds of former students all over the world are testimony of that success. The immediate end of teaching, he said, is the pleasure of seeking the truth, while the ultimate end is attaining eternal life. We know we achieved the first of these and hope we achieved the second.
Dennis Quinn Professor of English
Nuclear defense a fine investment
with John Senior, in or out of class, in which I did not learn something valuable.
An anti-ballistic missile system (ABMS) is, of course, appealing. As a matter of fact, it is a great idea. It pains me to stand on the same side of an issue as Ronald Reagan, but on this subject, his administration was correct. An ABMS is the only way to ensure the safety of the United States from ill-intentioned foreign powers.
The congressionally proposed system is meant not to prevent a massive nuclear strike from being effective but to stop a limited offensive by a small power of organization (China, Israel, Hammas, India, etc.). This system would be unable to stop an all-out offensive and therefore can be interpreted as being in compliance with the disarmament agreements that have been reached with the Russians.
Arguing that the proposed system would be ineffective based on existing data is simply ludicrous. An ABMS is a question of development, not implementation. Of course, the technology is not perfected
— otherwise, we'd already have an ABMS.
The Pentagon has strict rules and regulations regarding the reliability and effectiveness of deployed weapons systems. Any system that is implemented will of course comply with these strict standards and will be both reliable and effective at the task of protecting America from nuclear threats from abroad.
Admittedly, the development of an ABMS will stall disarmament talks, but how honest are the people on the other side of the table? Is it better to hope that they actually did disarm or to know that we can defend our families from a nuclear strike?
Of course, deterrence has prevented nuclear holocaust in the past, but an ABMS would be more effective and wouldn't necessarily put an end to the phenomena of deterrence. This would only occur should both powers obtain nuclear weapons.
Should only the United States obtain a ABMS or not, any country launching a nuclear strike against the United States would be turned into a giant self-lighting parking lot patrolled only by parking Nazis in thick lead suits. This is known by other world powers and has kept them in check for more than 50 years.
Although expensive and time-consuming, an ABMS is the only way we can ensure the safety of millions of Americans. The arms race is finished. We won. The United States racing Russia or China is like a '68 Camaro racing a Ford Fiesta and a Honda Accord.
The development of such a system would keep our scientists trained, our military sharp and our children safe. Preparedness will cost money, but let us not forget the lessons we learned in World War I, a war we entered with scarcely enough good shells to maintain a siege for a day. Always be prepared for war, or risk defeat when it inevitably comes.

Breast cancer event honors 'role model'
By T.J. Johnson
fjohnson@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
A group of breast cancer survivors and their families and friends gathered on Saturday for the second annual Betsy Beisecker Memorial Tea.
The tea was a fund-raiser for the Breast Cancer Action of Douglas County and was held to honor Betsy Beisecker, who was a psychological researcher and professor at the University of Kansas Medical Center's Cancer Center. Beisecker was remembered for her efforts to make the quality of life better for women living with breast cancer.
Penny Reese, treasurer of Breast Cancer Action, worked with Beisecker and recalled her efforts to comfort and care for women at the Medical Center who had breast cancer.
"She was such a role model," Reese said. "All of us, from clerical staff to medical students, were carried along to be a little more humane in our medicine. She was really everybody's strength."
Reese said Beikeerse worked in many ways to assist women suffering from breast cancer at the Medical Center, from helping women deal with the side effects of their medication to simply being there to console them.
A memorial written for Beisecker recalled this giving spirit.
Betsy was there to listen, assist, to intervene with the red tape, or simply to hold you. Many of us could never have found such bravery and self-advocacy to endure our own ordeals with breast cancer without having experienced Betsy."
About 60 women attended the memorial tea, which also included a fashion show. Clothes were modeled by survivors of breast cancer or their children or grandchildren. A memorial to Beisecker and a recognition of survivors and special people in the community were also held.
Suzie Taylor-Meadows, President of Breast Cancer Action, said the memorial was a way for survivors of breast cancer to share the feelings that come along with the disease.
"I'm a breast cancer survivor and most of us who are stricken with this disease have a pretty strong reaction," Taylor-Meadows said.
She also said that early detection methods for breast cancer need to be utilized, including regular mammograms and breast exams.
"More women need to be screened earlier." she said.
The memorial included recognition for any women at the event who had received a mammogram or breast exam in the past six months, as well as information tables with material on the benefits of early detection methods.
Breast Cancer Action of Douglas County holds the Beisecker Memorial as a fund-raiser for its projects in the Lawrence community. Breast Cancer Action provides information and support for people dealing with breast cancer, as well as opportunities for survivors to volunteer.
The memorial was sponsored by several area businesses, with volunteer help from the KU chapter of the Delta Delta Delta sorority.

A new book by a University of Kansas professor says that a prominent figure in Christianity was homosexual, but that does not bother some members of the Lawrence religious community.

Professor brings King James' sexuality out of the closet
"King James and Letters of Homoerotic Desire," by David Bergeron, professor of English, used letters written by King James to other male members of his court to prove his thesis that he was interested in men, if not active with them.
"I'm trying to build a case through James' own words," Bergeron said.
King James ruled England from 1603 to 1625. During that time, he had the Bible translated into common language.
Bbergeron said the book had not been written to cause controversy. Robert Minor, professor of religious studies who teaches the class, Religious Perspectives on Selfhood and Sexuality, agreed that simply saying King James was gay probably would not be controversial.
"Scholarship has for quite a while just assumed he was, and I think David makes a good case," he said.
Bergeron said he decided to write on the subject after working on a book about the Stuart family, of which King James was a member.
Bergerson said he was able to use about 75 original letters written by King James.
"It's the largest collection of private letters from a monarch for a long time," he said.
The letters showed definite interest between King James and three other men: his cousin Esmé Stuart, Robert Carr and the Duke of Buckingham.
He became especially close to Buckingham, who eventually helped run England's affairs toward the end of James' life.
"There's a period when Buckingham was in
Spain on a diplomatic mission when the letters came almost daily," he said.
The information on how Buckingham influenced King James was mixed, but overall, Bergeron said it had been positive.
"He was able to deal with Parliament in ways that I don't think James alone could have," he said.
"He was married, produced children, which a sovereign is supposed to do," Bergeron said.
"Traditionally in the West, one did not marry for love or for sex, but for alliances," he said.
Some Lawrence church authorities said King James' sexuality did not really matter in the
Bergeron said that despite his sexuality, King James still produced heirs to the throne. The Stuart family reigned a while longer, although the throne is currently occupied by the Windsors.
Minor said the concept of marriage as an expression of love for one another was a relatively modern concept.
Pastor Scott Hanks, of Heritage Baptist Church, 4340 West Sixth St., said his church exclusively used the King James version of the Bible and that King James' sexuality did not make a difference.
"What King James was or wasn't isn't the issue to me, the issue is the word of God," he said.
Joe Alford, chaplain of Canterbury House, 1116 Louisiana St., said the Anglican Church still relied solely on the King James version. His church is Episcopalian, the American version of the Anglican Church.
Alford also said James's sexual preference did not make a difference.
"What if he was?" he said. "What does it matter?"
Bergeron's book currently is being sold at the Mt. Oread Bookstore in the Kansas Union and Borders, 700 New Hampshire, for $24.95.

Paper to give news conservative slant
Conservative students at the University of Kansas will soon have a new medium - a student-run newspaper called the Kansas Review.
By Kelly Clasen
Special to the Kansan
Jeff Brownback, Ellsworth sophomore, is the editor-in-chief of the publication, which he said will make its debut today. Brownback is distantly related to Kansas senator Sam Brownback.
"We're basically just going to present a conservative side to whatever is currently relevant in the news," he said.
Casey Connealy, Leawood sophomore and business manager for the Review, said the Leadership Institute, an organization in Washington, prompted them to start working on the monthly paper. The Leadership Institute contacted the KU College Republicans about starting a paper. Most of the Review staff members belong to the group.
Connealy said the institute granted money to start conservative newspapers.
"They basically want conservative activists on college campuses," he said.
The institute donated $500 for the Review's first publication.
Connealy said views on the KU campus were
skewed toward a liberal perspective and he wanted people to take a different perspective on what was happening on campus.
"There are many more progressive organizations on campus than conservative organizations. That is why we wanted to start our own," Connealy said.
He said the newspaper would consist of news articles about events on campus, editorialis, columns and political cartoons.
"We'll have a wide range of editorials that will deal with certain campus issues that we think could be looked at in a different light," he said.
Bruce Bublitz, associate dean of the school of business, is the faculty adviser for the Review. He said conservatives did not have as many outlets for expression as liberals did.
"I am a big believer in the freedom of speech, therefore, I certainly want to encourage the expression of opinion wherever I can," he said.
Bublitz said that although he did not think he would agree with everything that would be printed in the paper,he thought that the students involved deserved a forum to express their ideas.
"I'm just there to help. It's a student-run, student-managed newspaper," he said. "I don't want to interfere other than to make sure everything is legal and honest."
Conneally said the Review was not going to be a competitor to the University Daily Kansan on a day-to-day basis because it will only be published monthly.
"But we can compete on people's perspectives of their concepts and their beliefs," he said.
The first issue of the Review will be eight pages long in a tabloid format. 5,000 copies will be distributed on campus and in Lawrence.
The first issue of the paper is being printed in Ottawa with the grant from the Leadership Institute and subsequent issues will be financed through advertising and fund raising drives.
He said a few of the approximately 25 staff members had experience on the Kansan and that other staff members had taken journalism classes in high school.
Brownback said that it was not difficult to get people to write for the publication and that the first issue was progressing well.
"Finding out what it actually takes to get a paper started has been a great learning experience," he said.
Anyone interested in writing for the Review can e-mail Jeff Connealy at connelly@orela.co.ukans.edu

Allergies blossom during spring season
By Elizabeth Holder Special to the Kansan
Springtime is sneeze time for many KU students.
First, watery eyes, then drippy noses. It begins with an itch that travels from the nose to the base of the throat, producing an uncontrollable cough. Eventually, the wheezing and sneezing begins.
Allergies affect 15 percent of Americans. Although many individuals have been bothered year-long by allergies, springtime, with its budding plants, sends some KU students running to Watkins Memorial Health Center.
Elizabeth Gitau, Wichita junior, said she already had been to Watkins twice for her allergies.
"I saw so many of my friends waiting at Watkins for medicine to relieve allergies," she said. "It is a terrible time since all I can do is sneeze and sneeze."

nesses. Colds are easily spread and allergies are based on individual sensitivity to different allergens."
He said colds usually were not accompanied by itchy eyes and skin, as allergies are. Colds are associated with fevers and allergies are not. He also said allergies produce a thin and watery fluid while colds produce a thick, green mucus.
"I see students who complain of having 'a long cold,'" he said. "Colds and allergies are two different sick-

"First, I try my hardest to avoid any place that is dusty or has a lot of fresh-cut flowers," she said. "Then I bought two air filters, which helps prevent pollen from entering my apartment, and I keep my windows closed."

block the effects of histamine, which is the chemical responsible for causing airways to become irritated," he said. "These controlled sneezing, itchy eyes, runny noses and other annoying symptoms, yet caused drowsiness."
Tom Sanford, assistant professor of otolaryngology at University of Kansas Medical Center, said medications for allergies have improved immensely during the past 50 years.
"First. antihistamines were used to
He said now decongestants have been used more because they address an allergy's symptom instead of the chemical cause. Decongestants stop runny noses and stuffy-head pressure caused by inflamed nasal passages.
Sanford said the most successful drug depends on the severity of the case.
"Claritin, Cromolym and nasal steroids are the most common prescription medication for allergies," he said. "Each dose can be increased to treat more serious cases and decreased for minor cases."
Over-the-counter drugs include nonsedative oral antihistamines and nasal decongestants, which help minimize allergy symptoms. he said.
"In order to determine the cause of the allergy, I analyze the environment the patient lives in," he said. "Often, the cure is merely cleaning more or closing the window."

more, had never suffered from allergies before this year. He said he moved into an old house on Tennessee Street and developed a terrible allergy because of the cat that lived there before he did.
"I have to clean all the time so I won't sneeze," he said. "I have taken Cromolyn and feel better, but I am ready for my lease to run out so I can move."
Sanford said Martin's allergy is caused by cat dander, minute particles of skin that cats shed daily. Another allergy easily relieved, he said, was second-hand smoke.
Rock said, "Many nonsmokers who do the party scene become uncomfortable because of the irritation to their eyes and chests caused by the smoke."
Rock said he expected the number of allergy victims visiting Watkins would increase before summer arrived.
We see so many here," he said. "I just hope we can help relieve the students who are suffering from allergies and won't get medicine. There are ways we can help, and we are here to help."

Web site aims to disarm speed traps
By Jennifer Roush
jrush@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Any student who's ever taken a driver education class has heard the admonition: speed kills.
A student at the University of Kansas was killed in March 1998 by another student who was driving a car while intoxicated and speeding.
Drivers are routinely cautioned that speed does indeed kill, and police officers monitor drivers with radar to catch those who exceed speed limits.
However, one Web site is allowing drivers to wage high-tech war against speed traps.
Web surfers can log on to www.speedtrap.com and find out when and where local police in each of the 50 states are most likely to be using radar to catch speeders. The site is searchable by state and also contains data submitted from other nations.
Readers can submit entries to the site, and most of the entries include what kind of
radar police use,

1limits before being ticketed.
Sgt. George Wheeler, of the Lawrence Police Department, said there was no requirement for police to notify drivers of speed traps or checkpoints.
However, he said, Lawrence police do notify radio and television stations 30 days in advance if there will be a checkpoint in town.
Wheeler said officers at checkpoints did not look specifically for speeders. They check for anything from minor infractions, such as expired drivers licenses and burned-out headlights, to major violations such as drug possession or driving under the influence.
Radar detectors are heavily advocated on the speed trap site as a way to avoid speed traps. Wheeler said that although detectors were not illegal in Kansas, cities were permitted to restrict or防比 their use.
Wheeler also said officers in Lawrence would use radar in places where there had been problems with drivers speeding, such as Tennessee and Kentucky streets, West Sixth and Mississippi streets, and Massachusetts Street.
Each Lawrence police cruiser is equipped with radar and each officer is instructed to clock drivers with that radar in between calls. Wheeler said.
David Gottlieb, KU professor of law, said there were no legal problems with police departments setting up speed traps. He said problems only would arise if traffic stops were racially biased.
"If they catch you, they catch you," Gottlieb said.
Lt. Schuyler Bailey of the KU Public Safety Office said he hoped such a site would discourage drivers from speeding.
"Anything that would keep people from speeding, I'm 100 percent behind," Bailey said.
Some KU students were not concerned
Some KU students about speed traps and said they would not really use the Web site.
Other students said they were glad to know the site existed
"I might use it for road trips, but I wouldn't print it out or anything," said Aleka Apt, Neosho, Mo, freshman.
and would use it when planning extended trips.

Kim Brower, Overland Park freshman, said the site would have come in handy for her a few weeks ago. Brower works in Overland Park, and recently got a $90 ticket on her way home on Kansas Highway 10.
"I'd use it if I got on the Internet a lot," she said.

State legislators battle EPA regulations
Rules could hurt small gasoline refineries
By Katrina Hull Special to the Kansan
Clean air is not priceless.
It costs money, and Kansas legislators are trying to head off environmental standards that will make Kansans pay more for gasoline that helps car exhaust stay cleaner longer.
State Sen. Dave Corbin, R-Towanda, chairman of the Committee on Energy and Natural Resources, said such EPA regulations would mean increased expense for Kansas consumers.
In early April, Kansas lawmakers passed a resolution encouraging the Environmental Protection Agency to take a regional approach to applying proposed regulations reducing sulfur levels in gasoline.
"Some states don't have air pollution problems and should be allowed to deal with air management and sulfur levels in gasoline differently," Corbin said.
Chuck Layman, researcher for the Kansas Department of Health and Environment, said air pollution was a complex problem with many factors — including political ones.
Layman, who helps formulate state regulations for the Air Planning and Assessment Section and the Bureau of Air and Radiation, said a national limit for sulfur levels in gasoline already existed and the EPA's move toward lowering the limit further would increase production costs.
Sulfur in gasoline is harmful because it damages the catalytic converters in automobiles. Gas vapors from the engine and the fuel tank flow past the catalytic converter and are treated for toxins before being emitted into the air.
"Sulfur causes the catalyst to work inefficient," Layman said. "Automobile air pollution makes up a large percentage of air pollution in metropolitan areas and anything that assists the catalytic converter to work longer and more efficiently is helpful."
Low-sulfur gasoline is most effective when a car is only driven in a low-sulfur gasoline area, Layman explained. Once a car is driven elsewhere in the nation, such as Kansas, higher-sulfur gasoline damages the catalytic converter and low-sulfur gasolines are no longer as effective.
Layman said this was the reason behind the EPA's push for a nationwide low-sulfur standard. California already uses gasoline with a lower sulfur content and the EPA may require other states' gasoline to meet California standards.
But the story has two sides. Small states, such as Kansas, have
several small refineries that possibly would not be able to afford the cost of producing low-sulfur gasoline.
Corbin said alternative means of reducing air pollution in Kansas should be considered. Lowering gasoline sulfur levels may not be the most cost-effective solution for the state.
The Kansas legislature's resolution reads that "new investments in clean air are needed," but encourages the EPA to have the "flexibility of a regional approach that maximizes air quality benefits where they are needed most."
Corbin said the resolution passed was not binding, but merely a request by Kansas legislators for further consideration before requiring a nationwide standard.
"Let states determine their own destiny instead of setting a nationwide standard," Corbin said.

Online enrollment tickles MBA students PINK
Special to the Kansan
By Scott Hollis
University of Kansas MBA graduate students who are planning to enroll for classes at Edwards Campus can now do so online.
Members of the School of Business management information systems, who participate in the PINK project, used new computer technology to upgrade the school's records systems and made it possible for all MBA students at Edwards Campus to enroll on the Web.
The acronym PINK has no particular significance.
The project is part of an ongoing process to upgrade the computer databases in the business department.
Jim Nelson, adviser to the PINK project, said the new software was implemented so Kansas City-area MBA students could enroll via the Internet because it was difficult for them to get to Lawrence.
"These people have real jobs, they can't come in and enroll because they have little time to do so," he said. "It's much more convenient for them."
The MBA graduate program at the Edwards Campus is the only online enrollment program at the University.
Nelson said the online enrollment also was convenient for international student applications.
"The goal is to train students in real-world training the way things are supposed to get done."
Jim Nelson advisor to the PINK project
Nelson said the computer upgrading project, which started in Spring 1996, was overseen and run almost exclusively by students through a series of classes offered in the business department.
Nelson said the new tracking system and online enrollment, which started a year ago, was far superior to the old paper filing system that the business school had before.
PINK also implemented a tracking system and online roster that follows information about teachers students have had and students demographics, course loads and grades. The system also tracks the grades given by each professor over the course of each school year and can carry out a 20-day report for classes in the department.
"The way things were being done was really bad," he said. "They were taking paper applications and everything was done on paper. There were no equipment standards."
"I mentioned to the dean that they should have an information system," he said. "The dean recognized the need for one, but there was no money to support the project, so I decided to do it with students through a series of classes with virtually no money involved."
The project allowed students get valuable hands-on experience working with the types of informational systems they would encounter after graduation when they helped the business department.
John Fischer, Chicago MBA student and project manager, said the structure of their information systems was good enough to be acknowledged as a level II system by the Software Engineering Institute last year. Level II status is at the same level as the department of defense. There are five levels in all, one being the most basic system and five being equal to the work of NASA.
"The goal is to train students in real-world training the way things are supposed to get done," Nelson said.
The University is the only college group in the country ever to reach level II status. It is something that PINK is proud of since the program has to cope with student turnover because of graduation. Fischer said.
"Over the last year the Web site has supported 1,000 users," Fischer said. "The school has got a lot of value out of it."

Squashing the millennium bug
Through the years, Facilites Operations has rolled with the changes. Now,the department tackles Y2K.
story by lori o'toole illustration by kyle ramsey
2K compliance was unheard of when Jose "Butch" Larios began working 30 years ago for the Department of Facilities Operations.
The 2-year-long project of immunizing the campus against the millennium bug has been unlike any other buildings and grounds project Larios has ever been a part of.
"It's been a one-time shot," Larios said. "It's been a big hassle and a big change-over."
As a 24-year-old "just looking for a job," the University hired him as a laborer in 1969 to move and set up furniture. Larios recalled his first year working for the department when he said technology and communication were antiquated.
"There was no such thing as personal computers," Larios said. "I didn't even know what one was."
Before e-mail, employees within the department communicated with one another via an intercom system, called the "Squawk Box." Instead of cellular phones, they used walkie-talkies. The first computers the department had in the late 1970s were useless. Larios said.
He soon climbed the facilities operations ladder from his first position to driver and then to a labor foreman and finally to his current position as management systems analyst.
In 1977, as a management analyst, Larios helped the department adjust to the first computer system.
"I didn't really know what I was getting into," he said. "I had to sneak onto people's computers to learn how to use it."
Since the first system, Larios, like millions of Americans, has been constantly working to keep up with advances in computers and software. He said the continuous task is worth the trouble.
"It's definitely important to keep up with the changes," Larios said.
nirty years after his first day, nearly everything within the Facilities Operations department is controlled by computers. With 2000 less than eight months away, Larios is watching as the computer-dependent world scrambles to protect itself from technology glitches.
In fact. he has been a part of the preparations.
Facilities Operations Director Mike Richardson said that of all Facilities Operations' Y2K tasks, the work order management system was the most difficult.
"We had to analyze every business function that we do and basically every service we provide to the campus for the new system." he said.
Larios worked on a Facilities Operations focus group responsible for a new work order management system. The system handles of 13,000 work requests from the University each year as well as billing, inventory and purchasing information. The previous computer system was more than 25 years old.
"Looking back 30 years at the changes, it's amazing." Larios said. "We had no idea technology would be like this."
Students and faculty may not directly see the results of the department's in-house transitions, but they would notice it
"The computer system was an old DOS-based system." Richardson said. "It takes and monitors water tempera-
and monitor water temperatures, and adjusts the boilers accordingly. They provide heating and steam for the entire main campus."
Richardson said computers also operate the pumps, fans and regulators on the boilers that optimize energy efficiency.
The new boiler project, which will cost more than $10,000, is being handled by state division purchasing in Topeka, where employees are taking bids.
Larios said that the many changes and updates reminded him of an experience he had earlier in his career, when the department upgraded office technology.
"I helped the department get the first automated system," he said. "I got most of the blame for the change. People would come to me and ask, 'Why are we doing this? Why are we doing that?' There's not much you can tell people except that it's what everyone says people will be using."
Due to Y2K preparations, that was not the last time Larios and department members used that explanation for technology advances.
Facilities Operations is in the process of updating computers that monitor water and steam temperature, fan speed and air circulation in individual buildings.
"We know these computers won't roll over." Richardson said, referring to what will happen at midnight on Dec. 31, 2000. "We've already tested those. Some of them revert back to 1972 or 1982 instead of reading 2000. Some of them just turn off."
Although the majority of buildings are not yet Y2K compliant, Budig Hall and portions of other buildings are including the Spencer Research Library.
Campus elevators are another concern for the depart ment. Richardson said micro-processors are being checke
Breaking down the Y2K problem
Talk of Y2K problems and the millennium bug may leave some people confused.
There are many sources available to help explain the issue, including books, magazines and Web sites. One Web site, Y2Kspecialist.com, offers information, articles and a 32-step suggested process on Y2K self-preparations. In addition to a complete glossary of Y2K-related terms, here are some of the basics the site spells out:
The Problem
The Y2K glitch is actually not a bug or a virus, although it is commonly referred to as one. Instead, the problem is directly linked to computer dates. Beginning in the 1960s and 1970s, computer programmers made dates two-digit numbers. In other words, they were written for the 1900s. The difficulty comes with the transition to 2000 when some programs will not recognize the date.
Cause of Concern
The transition to becoming Y2K-computer ready is possible, but time is running out. The changeover is often on a large scale and many businesses still are not aware of what needs to be done to prepare for the change. Some business have chosen to wait until the last minute to save time and money. However, this only has increased the problem.
How It Could Affect You
Dates are an important element for computer programs that control a variety of daily services. Some of these include voter registration, grades, tax information, bank records, industrial operations and security
for compliance.
"We've contacted vendors and our elevator maintenance contractor," Richardson said. "They've all assured us that there are no elevator compliance problems."
Richardson said the department is waiting on written documentation from the contractors.
John Schneiderwind, Omaha, Neb. senior and Ellsworth Residence Hall computer lab employee, said he thought people were overreacting to the potential Y2K problems which could have been avoided.
"It's something that could have been solved a long time ago." Schneiderwind said. "It's poor planning."
Schneiderwind said he thought the computer transition would cause more problems for large corporations and businesses, including KU. However, he is not worried that chaos will result if the problems are not immediately resolved.
"I'm kind of skeptical about it all," he said. "I don't think that if I'm on an airplane when the millennium comes, it'll automatically crash. I don't see a major blackout happening."
Even with the University's large-scale dependency on computers and microchips, Larios is also not worried about possible technology fliasces at the turn of the century.
"if it's going to happen; it's going to happen." Larios said. "As a department, we're ready."
systems. Y2Kspecialist.com suggests that individuals obtain additional copies of personal records and forms of identification such as Social Security cards, passports and birth certificates.
Hardware and software for personal computers will also be affected by the change. The transition could be expensive for individuals and businesses alike.
Other systems such as telephones, elevators and security systems operate on a two-digit system.

Kansas softball splits 2 series
'Hawks go 1-1 with Cyclones, Huskers during weekend
By Brandon Stinnett
sports@kansan.com
Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas softball team ended Big 12 Conference play this weekend by splitting double headers with Nebraska and Iowa State at Javahawk Field.
Kansas split with the Cyclones Sunday by taking a 4-3 win in game one, but losing 8-0 in game two. The 'Hawks also split wins with the Cornhuskers, winning 1-0 and losing 6-3.
The Jayhawks (27-28) got on the board first in game one against the Cyclones, when freshman Shelly Musser scored on a single by freshman Leah Tabb in the bottom of the fifth inning. Iowa State (23-28) answered back in the sixth when catcher Erin Woods hit two-run home run, giving the Cyclones a 2-1 lead.
Kansas tied the game in the bottom of the sixth when junior Christy McPail led off the inning with a solo home run. Neither team scored again until a ninth- inning throwing error by first baseman Shannon Stanwix allowed the Cyclones to take a 3-2 lead.
Stanwix made up for her fielding blunder at the plate in the bottom of the ninth. The Cyclones intentionally walked Tabb, putting runners at first and second with Stanwix coming up to bat with two outs. Stanwix smashed a double to the gap in center field and scored freshman Amy Hulse and Tabb, giving the Jayhawks the victory.
"It was definitely the pitch I wanted, and I hit it," Stanwix said. "I was really pumped to be up at bat. Any time they walk someone to get you up at bat you want to do something good."
Kansas came out flat in game two. Iowa State scored two runs in the first inning and six more in the third, taking a 8-0 lead. The
Jayhawks never recovered and lost 8-0.
"You've got to give Iowa State credit," coach Tracy Bunge said. "They could have come out really flat after the way they lost the first game. But they came out and swung the bats aggressively and took advantage of our mistakes."
The Jayhawks split two games Saturday with Nebraska (27-18), 1-0 and 6-3. Kansas pitcher Sarah Workman and Nebraska's Jenny Voss battled each other in a pitcher's duel in game one. Workman held the Corn-huskers scorele, allowing three hits and striking out nine. Voss, an All-American in 1998, did not allow an earned run and held the Jayhawks to two hits. Kansas' only run came in the fourth innning when Musser scored on a double by Tbk.
It was Workman's eight shutout of the season and 23rd of her career. She is fifth alltime in career shutouts at Kansas.
The Jayhawks fell behind early in game two. Nebraska took a 1-1 lead in the first inning and then added two more in the second on a two-run home run by second baseman Jennifer Lizama. The Cornhousers extended their lead to 4-0 in the fourth when Lizama hit her second home run of the game.
Kansas cut into the Nebraska lead with two runs in the bottom of the fourth on back to-back RBI singles by freshman Christy Musser and Hulse, but the Cornhuskers answered back in the fifth innings with two runs of their own. Kansas added a run in the seventh on a RBI single by Tabb, but the Jayhawks' rally fell short when freshman Megan Urquhart grounded out with runners on first and second, ending the game.
Lizama went 3 for 4 in the second game after being held hitless by Workman in game one
"Sarah dominated some really good hiters," Bunge said. "In game one she completely shut down Lizama. That's the key to beating Nebraska. In the second game, Lizama adjusted to the way we were pitching her and she really hurt us."
The Jayhawks had nine hits and four walks off Voss in game two,but only got two
runs.
"Our hitters did a much better job for us in game two," Bunge said. "They made contact and made some things happen. Unfortunately, it was not enough."

Elway's retirement from pro football 'a tough decision'
By Michael Rigg

Kansas sportwriter

For a man who took so many hits without feeling any pain, it sure didn't take Denver Broncos quarterback John Elway very long to-start crying yesterday.
Elway: Retired from the NFL after 16 seasons.
At the press conference to announce his retirement after 16 head-turning seasons in the NFL. Elwai frequently had to
stop in mid-sentence to ch o k e back tears a n d regain his com pose.
"The over-under in the locker room yesterday was how many times I'd cry. I took the under."
Then, after crying some more he added "I lost the bet."
Eiway is leaving the game as one of football's greatest quarterbacks. He led the Broncos to 148 victories, the most of any quarterback, threw for 51,475 yards, passed for 300 touchdowns and started more Super Bowls (five) than any quarterback in NHL history.
The last of these touchdowns occurred in January's Super Bowl XXXIII, a game in which he was named the Most Valuable Player.
"I truly believe John was the very best to ever play," Broncos owner Pat Bowlen said.
Whether he was the best ever was in question until two seasons ago, as he was hampered by never winning the Super Bowl. Elway had taken the Broncos to three Super Bowls in the 1980s, but Denver lost those games by a combined score of 136-40. However, all the bad memories were erased in 1997 when Elway and running back Terrell Davis led the Broncos on an unbelievable playoff run, which ended with a 31-24 upset of the Green Bay Packers in Super Bowl XXXII.
"I know that I've been labeled as the guy who's never been on the winning Super Bowl team," a jubilant Elway said at the time. "Boy, am I glad to get rid of that."
After defeating the Falcons, many fans thought Elway would return to lead Denver's attempt to be the first team to win three straight Super Bowls.
One year later, the Broncos became only the sixth team in NFL history to win back-to-back Super Bowls with a 34-19 domination of the Atlanta Falcons.

Commentary
Best athlete of all time? Bo, of course
The walkout at Friday's Kansas City Royals game made me nostalgic.
This reminiscing got me thinking about sports history. I thought about listing an all-time baseball team but gored. So
When I saw all those fans protesting the lack of revenue sharing in baseball, I started longing for the days when championships were won, not bought. And I'm not talking about the black and white age, I'm talking about no more than 10 years ago, when teams from smaller cities like Kansas City were at no significant disadvantage.
here are my votes for various best-ever awards.
You're more than welcome to e-mail the sports desk and let us know what you think.
Best all-around athlete: Bo Jackson. Before a career-ending hip injury, he was simply a freak of nature. His athletic exploits are legendary. There's the time he threw out
Sam Mellinger
sports@kansan.com
Harold Reynolds from the warn track flat-footed, his 550-foot home run over the scoreboard during spring training, the time he ran over Brian Bosworth at the goal line the way a lawn mower runs over grass, or the time he ran 40 yards in 4.18 seconds. He is also the only person to ever appear in the NFL's and Major League Baseball's all-star games. But get a load of this: in his autobiography, Bo claims he never lifted a weight during college.
Ugliest athlete: Randy Johnson, 'nuff said.
Most ahead of his time: Wilt Chamberlain, and I'm not just talking about starting the sexual revolution a little early. Although it'd be amazing to watch the former Jayhawk battle with Shaquille O'Neal in the pain, Wilt just feasted on the physically inferior players of his day. He twice averaged — averaged! — more than 50 points a game during a season. And of course there's his 100-point game, a record that will stand forever. Wilt also played professional volleyball and was a standout on the KU track team as a high jumper.
Best game: 1992 NCAA Regional Final: Duke 104, Kentucky 103 in overtime. I didn't like either team, but this was special. Two powerhouses with a trip to the Final Four on the line. You had Christian Laetner getting a technical foul for stepping on a UK player, you had the Wildcats' big comeback through steals and threes, and of course, Laetner's game-winning turnaround jumper at the buzzer.
Most underrated athlete: Greg Maddux. Because he doesn't throw 95 mph and strike out 250 batters a year, Maddux is not often thought of as what he is: arguably the best pitcher in the history of baseball. He's won four Cy Young awards and has been consistently great throughout his career. He's won at least 15 games and thrown more than 200 innings in all but his first full season, and in the era of the hitter Maddux hasn't had an ERA higher than 2.72 since 1991, including ridiculous 1.56 and 1.63 marks in 1994 and 1995.
Most overrated athlete: Emmitt Smith. Sure, he was good. He has 12,566 yards and 125 touchdowns in his career. But during his prime, the Dallas offensive line gave him holes that he could have run through sideways.
Best sports movie: Hoosiers. No other movie comes close in capturing the way we want sports to be. High honorable mention goes to White Men Can't Jump.
Most unbreakable records: Cy Young's 511 career wins, Nolan Hitters's 5,714 strikeouts and seven no-hitters, Cal Ripken's decade and a half consecutive games-played streak, Wayne Gretzky's nine MVP awards, Bill Russell's 11 championships as a player, and Pete Rose's 4,256 hits.

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (May 3).
This is a good year to put down roots. A shrewd investment could lead to a solid foundation. In June, the money is available, but there are strings attached. Do what's required by August, and your dreams could come true. An old partnership requires action around November, and a surprise leads to abundance in December. Success comes slowly in February, but it's worth the effort. A fantasy could play out around April.
Aries (March 21-April 19): Today is a 5.
You're energetic and enthusiastic, and you're drawing a big crowd. Everybody wants to do what you're doing, because you're having so much fun. Also, you are shifting people's thinking by make the impassible ble look easy.
Taurus (April 20-May 20): Today is a 5.
Taurus 12-04 May 20: Today is 5.
Money's available today, all you have to do is go get it. But don't pay too much interest. The good deals being bandied about might have hidden clauses.
Make sure you read the fine print before you sign anything, but don't let it stop you.
Gemini (May 21-June 21): Today is a 7.
You may be tempted to try something radical today. You've thought about it lots of times, but never had the courage to act. Today, somebody could dare you to step outside your rut. It looks like the timing is just right.
Cancer (June 22-July 22): Today is a 5.
Cancer (June 22-July 22): There is a 5.
Be careful at work today. There's bound to be surprises. Some of them could be good ones, like getting a raise in pay. You're very conscientious. But also be careful not to break things!
You may have a practically overwhelming desire to play hooky today. This could be really dangerous, because it's not a good time to do that. Your boss is watching to see if you spend too much time goofing off.
Virao (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Today is a 5.
Your house may be in an uproar today, possibly because you're throwing things out and replacing them with better stuff. That's what you should be doing, anyway. It also looks like you might be able to a pretty good deal on what you want right now, at some sort of disaster sale.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Today is a 7.
Burke jpeg. 20-29. Tuesday 10-5.
If you've been looking for love, you could be in luck.
If you've got a sibling or close friend, the odds are definitely in your favor; just ask them to set you up on a blind date. You don't usually do that sort of thing, but this time, it could really work.
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Today is a 5.
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Today is a 5.
You could have a breakthrough today in financial negotiations. If you've been doing too much work for too little money, it's time to set things right. You can let the powers that be know what you need, in a kind, no-nonsense way. You might even be able to add a little humor.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Today is an 8.
The sun is in Taurus. The moon is in your sign today, and that makes you very lucky. Furthermore, Jupiter, the planet that symbolizes good luck, is in Aries, your solar fifth house of love. Since Mercury is there too, talk will turn to love, and this could lead to a beautiful excursion together.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Today is a 6.
Looks like your house could be in something of an uprair, but it's probably all for the best. When you get down to the bare foundation, you can start building up again. Have a great time ripping out the stuff you don't like any more, so you can put in something better.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Today is a 7.
Your friends will be coming up with all sorts of great ideas today. They're your best source of inspiration. If you're trying to figure out how to solve a problem, call a person you know who does that for a living. Don't try to fix everything yourself. It's more fun if you spread the work around.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Today is a 5.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Today is a 5.
This is an easy day to ask for a raise or go for a better job. You should be doing something you love.
Do you feel stuck in a rut where you are? Well, climb out at least far enough to look at the want ads.
There's no security in doing what you hate over and over again. Make a change for the better.

Hingis settles dispute with clothing sponsor
ROME — Martina Hingis says she's made peace with her clothing sponsor, at least for the duration of the Italian Open women's tournament.
SPORTS BRIEFS AND SCORES
Note: Horoscopes have no basis in scientific fact and should be read for entertainment purposes only.
Hingis: had signed deal worth $2.8 million with sponsor.
The top-ranked player showed up at a pre-tournament news conference Sunday wearing a Sergio Tacchini T-shirt, just days after the italian sportswear manufacturer announced it was ending her endorsement deal.
The top.
Tacchini said the 18-year-old star had failed to live up to the terms of a five-year contract signed in 1996. The deal was worth up to $2.8 million per year.
"I've always been faithful to my sponsor," Hingis said, adding that she was surprised by the company's announcement and only learned of it from newspaper reports.
Hingis, the defending champion, is the top seed in the $1 million clay court tournament, but faces a potentially tough field when first-round play begins Monday. Sisters Venus and Serena Williams plus ninth seed Anna Kournikova are on her half of the draw.
The Rev. Billy Graham to give Indy invocation
INDIANAPOLIS — The Rev. Billy Graham will give the invocation at the Indianapolis 500 on May 30, just days before he begins a crusade at the RCA Dome.

invited Graham in February to give the invocation.
NAZARETH, Pa. — Rookie Juan Montoya passed another checkpoint on his road to stardom.
Graham's prayer will break a 25-year tradition at the race. Since 1974, the invocation has been given by the Catholic archbishop of Indi-anapolis.
George personally called current Archbishop Daniel M. Buechlein to tell him about the invitation to Graham, Speedway spokesman Fred Nation said, adding the archbishop understood the unique opportunity.
Racing rookie Montoya wins Bosch Grand Prix
Virtually no one was able to pass him Sunday in the Bosch Grand Prix. The 23-year-old Colombian, a champion last year in Formula 3000 road-course racing, added a victory in his first career start on a short oval.
The result of his dominant run — including single points for winning the pole and leading the most laps — gave Montoya the lead in the series. He has 45 points, two more than Adrian Fernandez.
"To have the points lead is beautiful, but I won the race," Montoya said.
It was the second victory for him in just four races on the CART circuit. He prevailed two weeks ago on the city street course in Long Beach, Calif.

But Castro-Neves was game, often appearing faster and more patient than Montoya. Castro-Neves got by Montova again on lap 145.
Montoya then made contact twice with P.J. Jones, who passed him before spinning out for the third caution. Again, the crew made the difference, getting Montoya out of his pit in 12.2 seconds on lap 148. Castro-Neves was in for 15.5 seconds, and came out third behind Jones.
He wound up leading 210 laps in a race slowed five times for 56 laps. The average speed was 120.225 mph.
With 55 laps remaining, Castro-Neves spun approaching the line, lost a lap and was never a factor again.
He pitted under the caution he caused, came back out and hit the wall on the first lap after the green flag waved again.
Montoya got a huge jump when the race went green for the final time on lap 200, and immediately drove off to a five-second lead. With the cars spread out and lapped traffic no longer an impediment, he had no more competition.
Austrian gets victory in AT&T tennis tourney
DULUTH, GA — Stefan Koubek, a qualifier from Austria, beat fifth-seeded Sebastian Grosjean of France 6-1, 6-2 Sunday and won the $325,000 AT&T Challenge, his first ATP Tour title.

Koubek became just the second
Koubek, 22, needed just 56 minutes to claim his biggest check,
$46,000. Keeping his shots high and deep and then nailing winners with his slashing forehand, the left-hander took control from the start.
Koubek, who had to win three matches to qualify and then five matches in the main draw, including upset wins over four-seeded Michael Chang and eighth-seeded Magnus Larsson, should jump from No. 97 to 67th.
Grosjean, who has had more success on hard courts, failed to find his rhythm. Committing numerous unforced errors, he was broken in the first game of the second set and again in the fifth to trail 4-1.
"Today I played one of my best matches ever," Koubek said. "I was playing winners all over, didn't hit many unforced errors. He didn't really have much of a chance."
In the first set, the Austrian broke at love for a 3-1 lead and again two games later to go up 5-1. He then held serve to finish off the 22-minute first set.

Koubek seemed to gain speed on his serves toward the end of the second set. Serving for the match at 5-2, he held at love for the victory.
"He plays very fast and he likes to take the ball very early, so it was difficult to play my game," said Grosjean, 20, who reached his first career final in March at Key Biscayne. "In the second set I tried to serve and volley because I made so many mistakes in the backcourt."
Grosjean earned $27,000 and is expected to jump from No. 40 to 33rd in the rankings.

Elway gives NFL teary departure
Continued from page 1B
"I couldn't do it anymore," the 38-year-old Elway said. "I can't compete at the level I want to compete at. That's what it came down to."
For Kansas City Chiefs fans, Elway's retirement is good news. Elway loved to torment the Chiefs in the fourth quarter, leading the Broncos to eight come-from-behind victories against his AFC West rivals. Among these comebacks was a game in 1991, where Elway threw a pass an estimated 80 yards across his body, setting up the game-winning goal and a 1992 matchup where Denver was losing 19-6 at the two-minute warning, but came back and won 20-19.
"Every Chiefs fan is happy to see him retire," said Brett Parr. Wichita freshman.
Olathe freshman Brian Stites agreed.
"As a Chiefs fan, I'm glad to see him go," Stites said. "Now it will only be easier for the Chiefs to whip the Broncos."
However, some Kansans were saddened by yesterday's news.
"I feel like a part of my heart has been taken away," said Brett Leeth, Wichita freshman and avid Bronco fan.
Elway said he planned to devote more time to his family and work on his golf game. He owns a string of auto dealerships in the Denver area and has expressed an interest in getting into broadcasting, perhaps on the Monday night ABC games.
"It's a tough decision," Elway said. "I don't look at it as a retirement. I look on it as graduation. You graduate from high school and you graduate from college. I'm graduating from pro football."

Tourney results mixed for men's tennis team
With the help of an unlikely hero, the Kansas men's tennis team upset No. 22 Texas A&M before being eliminated from the Big 12 Conference tournament by Baylor on Saturday.
By Melinda Weaver
sports@kansan.com
Kansan sportswriter
No. 50 Kansas, the sixth seed in the tournament, played a close match against the tournament hosts before winning 4-3 with the 4-6, 6-3, 7-6 (7-5) Micha Zomer victory in No. 6联赛.
No. 2 singles player Kenny Powell did not play because of disciplinary reasons, moving everyone in the lineup into a higher spot. This moved Zomer into No. 6 singles for only the third time this spring.
He did not disappoint.
"It is the most memorable tennis experience of my life." Zomer told the Dallas Morning News. "The fans here get in your face, and they love their tennis. Not to rub the win in their faces, but to win in that environment makes it even sweeter."
Texas A&M took a 1-0 lead after capturing the doubles point, forcing to Kansas to rely on its singles teams to capture the victory.
Freshman Alex Barragan tied the score in his first match at No. 2 singles by defeating Dumitru Caradima 6-0, 6-3.
Barragan spent most of the season at No.4 singles and played occasionally at No.3 singles.
The Aggies regained the lead when Cody Hubbell defeated Ed Dus 7-5, 6-1 in No 3 singles, but Quentin Blakeney tied the score at
No. 5 singles by beating Brent Horan 7-6, 6-2.
KANSAS TENNIS
With the score tied 2-2, Kansas needed two of the three remaining victories to complete the upset against the third seed.
At No. 1 singles, No. 20 Shuon Madden defeated Kansas's No. 34 Luis Uribe 6-1, 1-6, 6-3. In No. 4 singles, freshman Rodrigo Echagayar overcame a first-set loss and beat Keith from 3-6, 7-6 (10-8), 7-5.
The match came down to Zomer and Juan Aramburo. Zomer finished the upset in a third-set 7-5 tiebreaker victory.
"Today's win is a team win," coach Mark Riley said. "Our top player was out, so everybody else stepped up. We were down 40-love in those last two matches. I don't know how we beat the Aggies. This was our biggest win all year. In the last match, I think we wanted it more than they did."
Since the Big Eight adopted the current format for its postseason tournament in 1983, the Jayhawks are undefeated in the first round of the tournament.
However, Kansas did not fare as well in the second round when it faced second seed Baylor Saturday.
Baylor took a quick lead by capturing the doubles point and never lost its momentum.
Kansas, 12-8 overall, now awaits the selection of the 64 team NCAA tournament, which will be announced Wednesday afternoon.

Women fall short of Big 12 tennis title
By Amanda Kashue

Kansas sportswriter
Kansas, the No.3 seed, was upset by the No.6 seed Oklahoma State 5-4, preventing Kansas from capturing its first conference title.
After leading the match 4-2, the women's tennis team dropped all three doubles matches on Friday, eliminating it from the Big 12 Tournament.
"Igive OSU a lot of credit," coach Jenny Gerrity said. "I haven't seen three doubles matches played that well. Obviously we are very disappointed, because we had it in the bag and let it slip away."
The loss also snapped Kansas' four-game winning streak against Oklahoma State. Kansas last defeated them on April 7.7.2
The other doubles teams dropped their matches 8-3 and 8-1.
The No. 1 doubles team of senior Kris Sell and freshman Cheryl Malliah, ranked No. 45 nationally, was upset by Oklahoma State. 8-6. The loss dropped the team to 14-19.
Cheryl Malliaah avenged her only conference loss of the regular season at No. 3 singles against Martina Hautova. Malliaah was named Big 12 player of the week last week and also was named individual singles champion at
Sell won her second consecutive match against Maria Galoustova at No.1 singles, 5-7, 6-0, 6-1.

Junior Brooke Chiller also was named conference champion at No. 2 singles. Chiller lost to Oklahoma State. G-4, 7-6(6).
Junior Julia Sidorova and freshman Lisa Mallaiah also earned points for the Jayhawks at No. 5 and No. 6 singles.
The fate of the Jayhawks will be decided on Wednesday when 64 teams are picked to compete in the NCAA tournament. The selection show will be televised via satellite at 4:30 p.m. Stations will be announced later this week.
Both players were named conference runners-up at their respective positions for the 1999 season.
Oklahoma State was eliminated from the tournament on Saturday when they lost to No. 7 seed Oklahoma. Oklahoma faced No.1 seed Texas yesterday in the finals. Texas won the tournament. 5-1.
Sell said she was hoping to qualify for the singles portion, something she had never done before.
"I'm pretty sure I will qualify," she said. "I just want to win a few matches."
After the loss on Friday, Kansas dropped to 12-12 on the season.
“Our record doesn't reflect how hard we've played,” she said. “We have accomplished a tremendous amount.”
Garrity said she was proud of her team.
Men's track victorious in weekend contest
By Mike Miller sports@kanson.com Kanson sportwriter
The men's track team won the Indiana Quadrangular in Bloomington. Ind. last weekend on the strength of seven titles and eight second-place finishes.
Scott Russell and Charlie Gruber won two titles each as Kansas edged Indiana by four points, 186-182. It was the second meet victory of the season for the men's team.
Kansas also set six meet records and posted four provisional marks in the competition.
The women's team scored 122 points, placing third behind Indiana State and Indiana.
Russell, a two-time All-American thrower, won titles in both the discus, throwing 174-2, and in the javelin. His 237-2 throw in the javelin was a meet record and provisionally qualified him for the NCAA Championships.
"I'm definitely pleased with how I'm throwing, but I thought I'd have thrown a personal best by now," he said.
Russell also placed second in the hammer throw and fourth in the shot put.
"I knew I was ready to pop a big one, but I thought it would only be something like 3:45. It felt good, though."
Griber won both the 800-meter run and the 1,500 meters, and ran a leg on the d4x40 relay team that finished second.
His time of 3:43.45 in the 1,500 was a personal best, set a new meet record and provisionally qualified him for the NCAA Championships.
TRACK AND FIELD
Gruber said.
Ryan Spears gave the Jayhawks another strong performance in the field events with three top-five finishes, including a put shot title.
Jabari Wamble set a personal best of 47.03 in the 400 meters, winning his first title of the season.
Colby Miller won the pole vault with a mark of 16'91/4, while Greg Steele vaulted 15'91/4, placing second.
The sprinters experienced their most successful day of the season. Coupled with Wamble's win, Dave Tomin placed second in both the 100 meters and 200 meters, while Eric Paterson finished second in the 110 meter hurdles.
The Kansas relay teams run well for the second straight week as the 4x100-meter and 4x400-meter relay teams placed second.
"I thought we were going to win the 4x100. I think that once we get everybody healthy we'll take care of business at conference," Wamble said.
Andrea Bulat won the second javelin title of her career, throwing 153.1 and establishing a meet record.
Two-time All-American Andrea Branson won the pole vault with a mark of 12.9 l/2. It was the third highest vault in school history and provisionally qualified her for the NCAA Championships.

Commentary
Softball rivalry fills newsroom
I know there are a few of you out there who believe in sports fate. Champions of the underdog, some would call you. Those of you who truly know in your heart that the Cubs will win the World Series this year (and every year, for that matter).
You fans who actually believed the Chiefs were Super Bowlbound with Gannon and Grbac handing the ball off to Bam "quarter-pounder" Morris and Donnell "swiffoot" Bennett definitely qualify. Well, I've got a sports tale you can appreciate.
At your friendly University Daily Kansan, there are two distinct entities—the news and the advertising. Each rates its importance to the paper about 10 times its actual value, but both are obviously crucial. You'd assume the two groups, working toward a common goal, would get along. You'd assume incorrectly.
Technically, a single door is all that separates the news and addie rooms, but they might as well be miles apart. Forget Kansas-Missouri, Chiefs-Ralers, Croats-Serbs — I'm talking about pure, unadulterated hatred here. I've been around the paper nearly every day for a year now, and still don't know a single addie — despite my constant stalking of the brunette with the killer smile who occasionally wanders through the news room with the sole intent of making me suffer.
So every semester all this bitterness and anger is released in the annual "addies vs. newsies" softball game — a spectacle known more for its keeg-stands, 10 designated hitters, distracting scantily clad women and trash talk than high-quality softball.
2013
In recent years, though,
the addies have had, and done,
more of each of these.
And why shouldn't they,
not having lost in four years?
Lets face it, if we could play sports,
we wouldn't have to write about them.
Matt James
sports@kansan.com
So Saturday
afternoon, the most exciting event in sports entertainment today unfolded in beautiful North Lawrence. The newsies showed up early, taking grounders, as well as a constant barrage of insults from the confident addies gathered on the sidelines. I believe I heard the words, "You newsies suck. Why are you even practicing? You know you're going to lose." I think you're starting to see where this is going.
And you are correct.
The "Bad Newsie Bears" emerged triumphantly, 12-8, in what only Stevie Wonder might describe as a beautifully played ballgame. All the pageantry was there — the fifth-inning, bench-clearing brawl, the occasional over-hand brush-back pitch and outfielders making catches without spilling their barley pops. It was all there.
The brother-sister, lead-off combo of Liz and Chris Wristen sparking the underdog newsies was an inspiration to us all, and Seth "Trevor" Hoffman getting dogpiled on the mound after shutting the door on an addie comeback brought a tear to my eye.
All rivalry aside, the important thing is that we had a good clean game and no one was injured.
To the addies' credit, they had a few memorable plays as well. An unassisted double play in the seventh squelched what looked to be a big inning. And I will never forget a close play at home when an errant addie throw shattered his own catcher's glass pitcher of beer. Oh, the sweet irony.
What am I talking about? The important thing is we won, and we've got months to talk about it.

Spectators killed in race crash
Flying debris cause of 6 audience deaths in past nine months
The Associated Press
CONCORD, N.C. — For the second time in nine months, a crash at a major open-wheel auto race in the United States has killed three spectators, fueling questions about safety at the events.
"Every once in a while, unfortunately, auto racing raises the black side of itself," Lowe's Motor Speedway president H.A. "Humpy"
Wheeler said Sunday as authorities tried to piece together evidence from a fatal accident at the track Saturday night.
Three people were killed and eight hurt when debris from a three-car wreck flew into the stands during the VisionAire 500 Pep Boys Indy Racing League event.
Witnesses said the force of the crash at speeds near 215 mph rocketed a wheel and suspension parts over a 15-foot-high catch fence at the exit of the fourth turn. The debris flew into the grandstands and slammed into spectators, some of them seated several dozen rows above the 1.5-mile, high-banked
superspeedwav.
Rescue workers converged on the bloody area in a scenario eerily similar to that at Michigan Speedway last July 26, when three spectators were killed in a Champ Car race. The cause in that event also was a broken wheel and suspension parts that hurdled a catch fence.
In an effort to keep wheels from flying off at impact, the Formula One circuit this year began requiring its teams to use tethers designed to keep the wheels and suspension connected to the main body of the machine.
Such tethers are not required on either Champ Cars or IRL machines.
Tigers-Billikens series renewed
The Associated Press
ST. LOUIS — It's the matchup college basketball fans in eastern and central Missouri have been seeking for years.
phere like this game will," Saint Louis coach Lorenzo Romar said.
The Missouri Tigers and the Saint Louis University Billikens finally will renew their in-state rivalry in what officials are calling "The Matchup of the Millennium."
"It's a great experience for our team any time we can play a game that provides a postseason atmos-
The game will be played Dec. 12 at the Trans World Dome. Officials say they expect about 40,000 fans at the game.
The game at the dome is the prelude to a home-and-home series. The Billikens will travel to the Hearnes Center in Columbia during the 2000-2001
season. The teams will play at the Kiel Center, the Billikens' usual home venue, during the 2001-2002 season.
It's a natural rivalry — St. Louis and Columbia are only 100 miles apart, and the schools often pursue the same recruits.
M
"I'm getting a feel for this game from the players, especially from
those that are from St. Louis," Missouri coach Quin Snyder said. "They have gone from fans to participants here. I think it'll be a very valuable experience for us."
Both teams have new coaches. Romar replaced Charlie Spoonhour, who spent seven years at Saint Louis. And, earlier this month, Snyder was named as the replacement for Norm Stewart, who was at Missouri for 32 years.
"We've worked very hard for the past five years for this to happen," said Saint Louis athletic director Doug Woolard. "This is the first time all the factors such as scheduling and facilities fell into place."

NHL
Penguins still in playoffs
Late goals by Jagr help set up pivotal game 7
The Associated Press
PITTSBURGH — Give the save to Jaromir Jagr
Jagr, visibly slowed by a groin injury that sidelined him for four games, scored an electrifying tying goal with only 2:12 left in regulation, then won it in overtime at the Pittsburgh Penguins staved off playoff elimination by beating the New Jersey Devils 3-2 Sunday.
The Penguins, on the verge not only of elimination but of possible extinction as the franchise's fate is being decided in bankruptcy court, now will play in game seven Tuesday night in New Jersey that seemed improbable when the Devils took a 2-1 lead on Rob Niiedermayer's goal at 4:34 of the third.
Jagr's two-goal performance on a day he was not even expected to play will no doubt go down in NHL playoff history not only for its brilliance, but its unlikelihood.
Jagr said Saturday that he was pessimistic of playing not only Sunday but for the rest of the series. But, despite being less than 100 percent, he played regular shifts and wound up scoring the Penguins' two biggest goals of the series.
With time winding down in regulation and the Devils in control, Jagr tied it by carrying the puck into the
Devils' zone, then getting it back from German Titov and scoring as Niedermayer left him undefended to cover Titov.
Jagr, whose goal shifted the momentum to the Penguins, then won the game at 8:59 of overtime. Martin Straka carried the puck down the left wing boards before threading it on the opposite side to Jagr, who beat goaltender Martin Brodeur high.
For New Jersey, the defeat reawakened memories of the top-seeded Devils' stunning first-round playoff ouster by Ottawa a year ago.
The Penguins, outplayed in the first period throughout the series, were clearly buoyed by Jagr's return and had several good early scoring chances, only to see their momentum blunted by an elbowing penalty on Jagr at 8:10.
The Devils did not score on that power play, but did take a 1-0 lead at 12:04 on Sergei Bryalin's backhander off Bobby Holik's one-handed pass from behind the net.
With the Penguins again content to let the bigger Devils control the tempo by failing to answer their physical play, Pittsburgh could not tie it until Martin Straka scored his fifth goal of the series at 6:44 of the second.
841-PLAY
1029 Massachusetts
Straka, left alone at the side of the crease for several seconds, directed Alexei Kovalev's pass by Brodeur and — at least momentarily — got the less-than-capacity crowd of 15.376 back into the game.
Penguins goaltender Tom Barrasso stopped 25 shots and was not beaten on any of the long shots that the Devils were successful in scoring earlier in the series.

Blues tame Coyotes, tie series
The Associated Press
ST. LOUIS — Defenseman Jeff Finley, who scored only one goal in the regular season, broke a third-period tie as the St. Louis Blues forced game
seven of their first round series with a 5-3 victory against the Phoenix Coyotes yesterday.
Craig Conroy scored in the first
period and added a third-period goal for the Blues, who have won two straight after falling behind 3-1 in the series. They will try to complete the climb and avoid a fourth first-round exit in six seasons tomorrow night.
Such comebacks used to be extremely rare, but six teams, including the Blues in 1991, have done it this decade. The Coyotes have not made it out of the first round since
1987, when they were in Winnipeg, and coughed up a 3-1 series lead in 1990 and 92.
Finley had a goal and two assists in 30 regular-season games with the Blues and has only eight goals in 385 career games. Until this game he also had been one of the Blues' weak links on defense.
But he had two big shots in the crucial sequence. Nikolai Khabibulin stopped Finley's first drive from the left point, but Pierre Turgeon gathered in the rebound and swept a backhand pass out front. Finley skated in a few strides before blasting the game-winner at 8:59.
Conroy made it a two-goal lead on a rebound with 4:11 to go.
Scott Young, who got the winner in overtime in game five, had a goal and an assist for the Blues. Turgeon, a disappointment most of the series, had three assists as the Blues perhaps surprised a crowd of 16,629, their smallest in the playoffs since April 22, 1992.
The Blues had lost their last five playoff games at home, dropping games three and four to Phoenix and falling three times in the second round against Detroit last season.
Mike Stapleton, Stephen Leach and Teppo Numminen scored for the Coyotes. Dallas Drake, who leads the Coyotes with four goals and three assists, failed to score for the first time in the series.
Stapleton gave the Coyotes the early lead with his first career playoff goal at 2:20, blasting a slap shot over Fuhr's left shoulder. The Blues answered 36 seconds later as Conroy scored on a 2-on-1 break, and St. Louis took the lead on Young's power-play goal at 8:25.
Turgeon faked a shot before feeding the puck in the slot to Young, who had the winner in overtime in game five.

Yankees rally late, beat Royals
The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Bernie Williams helped the New York Yankees overcome another poor effort by Hideki Trabu.
Williams hit a tiebreaking two-run homer in the ninth inning as the Yankees rallied from a four-run deficit and beat Kansas City 9-8 Sunday, their 14th win in their last 15 games against the Royals.

Paul O'Neill, who tripled leading off the sixth, reached on infield single against Jose Santiago (1-2) starting the ninth, and Williams followed with just his second homer in 95 at-bats this season.
Mariano Rivera, New York's fifth pitcher, finished for his seventh save in eight chances, allowing a run by Febles, who was 3-for-5 with three RBIs.
Royals starter Kevin Appier up seven runs and nine hits in five-plus innings.
Rey Sanchez hit an RBI groundout in the bottom half after an error by Ricky Ledee in left, and Joe Randa tied it with a solo homer in the third.
Febles and Carlos Beltran hit run-scoring singles in the fourth, and Kansas City made it 6-2 in the fifth, chasing trabu on homers by Damon and Sutton — Sutton's second in two games.
New York's first six batters reached in the sixth. Williams drove in a run with an infield single, Posada chased Appier with an RBI single and Scott Brosius singled in a run off Terry Mathews, who then forced in the tying run when he hit Chuck Knoblauch with a pitch. Derek Jeter put New York ahead with a sacrifice fly.
After the Yankees lost Friday's series opener, Knoblauch said he thought Jeff Montgomery hit him on purpose in the ninth inning to retaliate for Dan Naulty hitting a pair of Royals in the late innings.
Gaetti helps Cubs sweep past Padres
The Associated Press
CHICAGO — Gary Gaeti, whose struggles at the plate left him with a lower batting average than some
pitchers, hit a go-ahead, two-wr run single in the eighth inning Sunday that helped the Chicago Cubs in a win against
CUBS
the San Diego Padres, 3-2.
The Padres have lost five straight games, their longest slide since losing five in a row from June 14-19 in 1997.
Felix Heredia blew Scott Sanders' three-hit, no-run effort when he gave up two runs and three hits in the eighth inning. But Gaetti was there to bail the Cubs out.
Sammy Sosa led off the eighth with a single and Mark Grace followed with a double. After Henry Rodriguez grounded out, San Diego manager Bruce Bochy
replaced Roberto Rivera with Brian Boehringer.
Bochy had Boehringer intentionally walk Jose Hernandez to load the bases for Gaetti, who came in hitting. 155. But the move backfired when Gaetti hit a hard single to left field, and Sosa scored with Grace close behind.
Eric Owens' throw from left made it to home in time, but Greg Myers went to tag Grace without having control of the ball. It glanced off his mitt, and Grace was safe with the go-ahead run.
Rodney Myers (2(0) pitched two-thirds of the inning for the victory, and Rod Beck pitched a perfect ninth for his sixth save in eight chances.
John Vander Wal singled to center and drove in Gwynn, and Joyner was safe at third when Gaetti couldn't make the throw in time. Joyner then scored on Myers' single to right for a 2-1 lead.
Heredia was yanked, and Myers got Phil Nevin to hit a high popup, ending the inning.

MONTREAL — Fernando Tatis, who hit a three-run homer in the first inning, slid home with the winning run in the 10th as the St. Louis Cardinals edged the Montreal

The Cardinals jumped ahead early as Tatis homered for the second straight game and Ray Lankford had a two-run single. Tatis, who also homered in the first inning Saturday to spark the Cardinals' 19-hit attack, hit his ninth home run out of Miguel Batista with one out in the first.
Montreal had tied the game against Acevedo in the ninth when Wilton Guerrero singled, James Mouton walked and Jose Vidro
Mark McGwire was rested and did not start for the second time this season. McGwire, who came into the game in the 10th inning, has not homered in his last 10 games.
Cardinals starter Darren Oliver allowed two runs on seven hits in five-plus innings. He was relieved by Mike Busby after allowing Barrett's leadoff single in the sixth, the fourth time Oliver allowed a hit to lead off an inning.
Widger doubled home Barrett from first and Brad Fullmer added an RBI grounder to first, cutting the lead to 6-3.
J. D. Drew, who tied a Cardinals record by scoring five runs in Saturday's 16-5 victory, led off the game with a double. One out later, Lankford singled ahead of Tatis' drive into the left field bleachers.
Mets beat Giants in pitchers' duel
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Masato Yoshii claimed he did not feel any extra pressure with his spot in the rotation in leapdaddy. But after getting booed on his last start and Rick Reed about to come off the disabled list, the reality was otherwise.
Metis
Yoshii pitched six shutout innings before Dennis Cook became the National
League's first five-game winner when Ramon Martinez dropped an eighth-inning fly ball yesterday, which gave the New York Mets their fifth straight win, 2-0 against the San Francisco Giants.
"He made all the quality pitches in a pressure-filled game," Mets manager Bobby Valentine said after the Mets swept three games from the Glants for the first time since May 1977.
"He knew what was on the line. There was a big crowd that was ready to cut his head off, but he responded. I'm proud of him."
Yoshi, who had given up 14 runs in his previous 13 1-3 innings, added a slight change to his delivery this start.
The right-hander, on advice from manager Bobby Valentine, had been pitching from the first-base side of the rubber this season. After reviewing video from Yoshii's start Tuesday against the Padres, Valentine moved him back to the third-base side.
"Changing sides might have been part of it," Yoshii said through an interpreter. "But the bottom line was that I was able to throw strikes in the lower half of the strike zone."
The results, at least for one start, were positive. Yoshi allowed three hits and two walks in six innings. He did not get the
win because San Francisco's Kirk Rueter, who also entered the game in a pitching rut, matched Yoshi with seven shutout innings.
The Mets broke through with two outs and no one on in the eighth. Pinch-hitter Matt Franco singled off John Johnstone (3-1). Rickey Henderson then hit a high fly just past second base that bounced off the glove of Martinez, who entered the game as a pinch-hitter in the top of the eighth and took Rich Aurilia's place at shortstop in the bottom half.
"I tried to get to the point where I thought it was going to land." Martinez said. "But the wind moved it around a little bit."
The Giants threatened only twice against Yoshii. Stan Javier led off the fourth with a double. Jeff Kent followed with a grounder in the hole between shortstop and third that Rey Ordonez stopped for an infield single, holding Javier at second.
Yoshii then got J.T. Snow to ground into a 3-61 double play and Ellis Burks grounded out to Ordonez.
With two out in the sixth, Javier hit a line drive to left-center that Henderson misplayed for a triple. But Yoshii recovered to get Kent on a grounder and was lifted the next inning for a pinch-hitter after throwing just 68 pitches.
Rueter came in with worse numbers than Yoshii; a 10.12 ERA and 36 hits allowed in 18.23 innings. But he shut down the Mets for seven innings, giving up just three hits and not allowing a runner to reach second.
"It's a shame that you waste such a great pitching performance by Kirk Rueter because that was his greatest game of the year," Giants manager Dusty Baker said. "It's tough to lose like that, but we did lose."

Tornadoes blast Midwest
Rows of houses destroyed, hundreds injured during storm
（USPS650-640）
The Associated Press
OKLAHOMA CITY — A half-mile wide tornado tore through the central part of the state last night, wiping out whole neighborhoods, killing at least 24 people and injuring hundreds.
"I heard it; the house started shaking and then the big rumble," said 74-year-old Katherine Burch, who hid in the bathroom of her southwest Oklahoma City home during the storm. "Glass and everything flew in it."
"We are getting so many injuries. We are just tagging them and bringing them in," said Shara Findley, spokeswoman for Hillcrest Health Center in Oklahoma City. "We're getting everything you can think of."
Police and emergency workers combed through the debris as darkness fell, searching for survivors. Crumpled cars littered two highways.
in southwest Oklahoma and stretching northeast. Damage was reported with some of the storms, but none were as devastating as the one that tore through the Oklahoma City metropolitan area.
Four people were killed in Midwest City, just southeast of Oklahoma City, according to Ben Frizzell, spokesman for the state Office of Emergency Management.
Television reports showed hundreds of destroyed homes. Heavy damage was reported in Moore, east of Oklahoma City, where rows of houses were destroyed and scores of trucks overturned.
Midwest Regional Medical Center said it was treating at least 100 injured.
The tornado was one of several that formed during a five-hour period, beginning
Natural gas leaked from several locations last night. Power lines and piles of carpet were everywhere
"It's gone." LeeAnn Richardson said as she looked toward where her home once stood.
Richardson said she and others were watching the weather on television when they decided to run into the storm cellar after clouds rolled in and rain poured down. Sixteen people and four pets were in the cellar with her, All survived without injury.

The twister was first reported about 5:50 p.m. but had not caused significant damage to homes until moving closer to Oklahoma City.
Power lines popped and debris flew as the twister moved along from Chickasha, about 35 miles southwest of Oklahoma City, and cut through the heavily populated Oklahoma City metro area.
Lawrence area gets its share of severe weather
Frequent lightning lit up the sky, heavy rain fell and wind gusts of more than 60 miles per hour blew through Lawrence between 11 p.m. and midnight yesterday.
A National Weather Service spokesman in Topeka said that there were no reports of tornadic activity in the area, although there were reports of wind gusts up to 75 miles per hour in Wyandotte County, Osage City and Scranton. Wind gusts up to 65 miles per hour were reported near Clinton Lake, he said.
Lt. Ed Brunt of the Lawrence Police Department said that there were reports of power lines down at 23rd Street and

Sgt. Anthony Augusto of the KU Public Safety Office said that there were a few tree limbs down on campus but that there were no major weather-related problems.
The area was under a severe thunderstorm warning from about 11 to 11:30 p.m. Douglas County, including Lawrence, remained under a tornado watch, issued until 5 a.m. today, at press time.

Harvest of dreams organic farming
Story by Dan Curry • Photos by Augustus Anthony Piazza
Some farmers struggle to raise earth-friendly crops
Bernard Pfeffer
F
rost came late.
All seven varieties of his organically grown greens froze to death in Robert Hickerson's garden.
Robert Hickerson, Lawrence resident, examines a garlic plant on his farm. Hickerson has spent the last four years operating an organic farm.
Hickerson kept his chin up. For him, small-scale disasters turn up as often as Sundays.
After quitting a Ph.D. program in art history four years ago to run an organic farm, Hickerson has become a man undaunted by minor defeats. Growing vegetables without insecticides, pesticides, fungicides or herbicides is a trial-and-error process.
That's why the frozen loss didn't worry him, he says, as he steps over an irrigation ditch that once watered the ill-fated greens.
After the frost, he says, he still had the rare Cherokee Red tomatoes coming up, a field full of knee-high sweet corn to attend to, and watermelons, the kind that would grow large and crush toes, strain backs and arms—the blue ribbon heavy-rollers people would lust for come July. Produce that would tide him over to the next season.
No one farms because they're lazy, and nobody goes organic to get rich. Organic farming is as much a lifestyle as a way of growing produce, and that's why farmers like Hickerson, who fight blight and insect alike without the standard-issue chemical arsenal, swallow their losses and press on. Other farmers say convincing consumers to pay extra cash for the concept of an organic tomato is more a racket than a religion.
Hickerson says he bought this farm—137 acres of timber, cultivable land, a creek and a dug-out bomb-shelter shack
Some organic farmers fail. Others discover marketing.
for a house- to get his hands on a field full of the best earth in Kansas, he says
He treads upon this field unobtrusively, sometimes barefoot out of a rev
erence for soil that crumbles into cocoa powder at a touch.
"I checked underground water tables, soil tables, crop prediction charts," he
says. "Looked at over 100 farms before I bought this place."
The field is moist, but not muddy. Hickerson's two dogs, zig-zagging in and out of the woods, leave perfect paw-prints in the soil.
"The first step in the organic process is the dirt," Dickerson says. "If you take care of your dirt, you have less inputs later."
Instead of spraying chemicals to clear th fields or adding fertilizer to enrich the soil, Hickerson plows the weeds into the ground each time they pop up.
Earlier last spring, Hickerson crawled a half mile on his hands and knees seeding the watermelon rows. The melons waxed fat from the fish emulsion that Hickerson had sprinkled for fertilizer and grew unruly as Hickerson weeded each by hand.
It's labor-intensive weed-control, he savs. But it's ecologically sound.
By all accounts, the melons should have been fine, the sweet corn a success.
Then the sun came out, the rain dried up, and the melons shriveled like tired balloons.
Then locusts swarmed and devoured the tassels of the sweet corn. With his hands bound by the requirements of organic farming, Hickerson watched as his corn rows became a series of castrated stalks, unable to produce even a pocketful of kernels.
Only the bulbous, Cherokee Red tomatoes remained, which his customers found unseemly.
Demand dropped; Hickerson took what he could get.
"I felt like I had an X on my back," he says. "Everything I planted turned to shit."
Now, as he crouches to inspect a new season's garlic crop, knowing he lost more than he made last year, he recalls the lessons he learned from the previous year's failures.
"I ita n't easy, and it ain't cheap," he says. "Farming teaches you to take a

Evening storms wreak havoc in Wichita area
The Associated Press
WICHITA — Tornadoes ripped through south Wichita last night, damaging dozens of homes and killing at least six people, officials said.
One of the fatalities occurred when a building collapsed in Wichita, the MidAmerica News Network reported.
Six people had been confirmed dead last night, said Fred Irvin of the Sedgwick County Emergency Preparedness Office.
Irwin said multiple injuries were reported in both Wichita and Haysville.
"There are just too many (injuries) to give an estimate at this point," Irvin said. "More and more are coming in by the minute."
several mobile homes in south Wichita were blown into a lake and several other homes were damaged, Irvin said. At least one of the deaths was in the mobile home park, he said.
I here also was a report of a major natural gas line leak in south Wichita, where some homes were being evacuated.
The storms, which included high winds and heavy rains, hit the area about 8:30 m. Irvin said.
"It it seems as if more than one tornado touched down," Irvin said. "They seemed to have hit in spotted areas in south and southwest Wichita."
I have no trailer, "Harris said. "We all rolled in it. It was the worst experience in my life."
The county declared a state of local emergency disaster about 9:30 p.m. Power lines and trees were reported down throughout the county. There were also reports of scattered power outages, Irvin said.
A mobile home owned by Chad Harris, 19, was rolled over by the tornado and demolished with eight people inside.
Oenieurs were set up at a National Guard Armory and a Wichita school.
People in the trailer were in critical condition. Two teenagers whose house was destroyed by a tornado were trapped in their basement for about half an hour until the storm subsided.
"Right now I'm in a state of shock," said 15-year-old Jessie Karr. "You never picture this is going to happen to you."
Jessie said she saw the roof blown off her house. She said it was kind of like action movies.
"I got hit in the head by a lawn chair." she said.
Her 13-year-old sister, Courtney, said she saw the bay windows in the house cave in and the tornado swirling inside the house.
"I was freaked out at that point. I was scared for my life," Courtney said. "I've seen it on TV, but seeing it with my own eyes, tearing up my own home ... it is hard to explain."
Eager shoppers find the Force with Star Wars merchandise

Kansas staff writer
Star Wars fans, collectors and others invaded toy stores yesterday just after the stroke of midnight to get their hands on merchandise from Star Wars: Episode 1
— The Phantom Menace. The movie will be released in theaters nationwide May 19.
Fans across the nation had been anticipating the toys' release for months and were salivating for any look at the vast array of Star Wars-related merchandise.
For many fans, it was literally a trip to the dark side: People waited in line in places like Lawrenceville, N.J., Boise, Idaho, and Tulsa, Okla., in the middle of the night Sunday for stores to open at midnight.
Then, just after midnight, "Man. did it go!" said Mark Breller, the sales floor manager at the Lawrenceville, N.J., Toys-R-Us.
"People were grabbing the action figures off the shelves as fast as they could, filling entire shopping carts with them. One guy bought 100 of the battle droids. He said he was going to set up a battle scene." Brraler said.
At a Wal-Mart in Tulsa, Okla., one collector offered store employees $1,000 for a *Star War* promotional sign. At the Boise Toys-R-U.S., shoppers purchased the equivalent of a 4-foot tractor-trailer of the movie toys.
When Earth's single sun rose yesterday morning, another wave of fans and collectors stormed retailers across the country to buy the most popular action figures, including 12-inch Darth Maul villains, Jar Binks space creatures and a Jabba the Hutt that spews green play gel ("It's food for Hutts, not humans," the box warns).
But here in Lawrence, demand was somewhat more subdued.

Small businesses trying to fill reservists' jobs
WICHITA — The departure of the first reservist out of McConnell Air Force Base left many small businesses yesterday scrambled to fill empty jobs.
At Wings Over Wichita, a pilot gift shop, manager Alan Jones just hoped he could find a temporary replacement soon for his absent assistant manager — a reservist activated with the 931st Air Refueling Group.
"Our thoughts and prayers are with those guys," Jones said. "This is the sacrifice we can do."
But, for many small businesses, it won't be easy.
With a staff of just four at Wings Over Wichita, the loss of even one employee constitutes a significant part of its workforce: "He was a main thread in the fabric of this company," Jones said.
That — added to the fact that many of the reservoirs in the air refueling squadron have specialized civilian skills

Tennessee Williams' work nominated for best play
NEW YORK — "Not About Nightingales," a prison drama written more than 60 years ago by Tennessee Williams, was nominated yesterday as best play of the Broadway season.
"Nightingales," not seen on stage until a production last year in England, will compete against another American play, "Side Man," Warren Leight's portrait of a jazz musician and his family, for the top prize.
Also nominated for best play were two foreign entries, "Closer," English playwright Patrick Marber's acerbic look at love and sex at the end of the century, and Martin McDonagh's "The Lone-some West," a black comedy about two battling brothers set in rural Ireland.
The Williams play received six nominations, including one for its star, Corin Redgrave, who plays a prison warden in the show. Also receiving six nominations was the revival of Arthur Miller's "Death of a Salesman."
received nine nominations, more than any other show. The musical was based on the true story of a 1913 murder in Georgia and the subsequent lynching of a Jewish man.

Ceremonies, Arafat won't mark independence day
GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip — It was supposed to be Palestinian independence day, but there will be no ceremonies and Yasser Arafat isn't even in town.
The Palestinian Authority adopted a no-fanfare approach to yesterday, the once "sacred" May 4 date marking the end of the five-year autonomy period and runup to statehood.
Some of Arafat's constituents were disappointed that the Palestinian leader, under pressure from world leaders and threats from Israel, last week backed away from declaring statehood.
"We postponed the declaration of the state once before, something we dreamed of since we were children, and when we were very close to it, the world one more time sabotaged this dream," said Islam Abdel Karim, 25, an engineering student at Gaza University.
Paiestinian hard-liners planned a number of rallies yesterday to show their dissatisfaction with the delay. The Democratic Front for the Liberation of Palestine, a small radical PLO faction, said it would hold a sit-in at the Palestinian legislature in Gaza City to press demands for statehood now.
Netanyahu uses rival's slur in campaign speech
TEL AVIV, Israel — Eagerly grasping a campaign issue handed him by his opponents, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu surveyed cheering supporters yesterday in a Tel Aviv slum and declared: "I am proud to be rifraff."
Netanyahu was responding to an actress and backer of his rival, Ehud Barak, who used the slur in a rally to describe Netanyahu voters, many of them Sephardic Jews of Middle Eastern origin.
The remark has ignited Israel's ethnic powder key less than two weeks before May 17 elections and was expected to help Netanyahu revive his sluggish campaign and catch up to Barak in the polls. Barak's Labor Party still is closely identified with Israel's predominantly European-born elites.
Labor leaders "understand, of course, that this is going to hurt them because it reveals that they all think this way." Netanyahu told Israel army radio.
Netanyahu quickly seized actress Tik Dayan's remarks and turned them into the centerpiece of his campaign.

Software impedes student groups' access to funds
By Nadia Mustafa
nmustafa.kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
Some students are frustrated by changes to student organizations' access to Student Senate funds since the implementation of a new online financial system.
In March, the University of Kansas adopted Peoplesoft software to facilitate its financial processes in an effort to eventually integrate all of the University's financial systems into one network, including student organizations' systems and the University's human resources and payroll systems.
Since it began using Peoplesoft, which is a client server set of integrated financial management systems. Senate has had to take over the financial legwork of some student organizations that receive block funding, such as the Hispanic American Leadership Organization.
Patrick McGiffert, Senate executive treasurer, said that because of the transition from paperwork to a computer system in line with the state's new software, student organizations that receive block funding would now have to go to a University department or the Senate office to process payments because most organizations' computers were not capable of operating the software.
Because of security concerns on the network, McGiffert said, only certain individuals would have direct access to the online system. In addition, he said, it would be inefficient to train new representatives of student organizations to use Peoplesoft each semester or year.
"It will be complicated until the end of this fiscal year," McGiffert said. "But it just wouldn't be feasible to have every block group buy their own computer. People are frustrated that the system is chang
ing, but once the bumps are smoothed out, it is going to be fine.
Amy Cummins, graduate senator, said she thought the transition to an online financial system would be difficult for student organizations and the Senate executive treasurers.
"They'll have to meet constantly with representatives from all the block groups," she said. "There's already so much traffic into the treasurer's office. It's mainly a headache for Senate personnel."
Cummins also said she was concerned with allegations of a lack of student input into the University's decision to adopt Peoplesoft.
McGiffert said students were justifiably a minority in the University's decision because students aren't responsible for the University's financial processes.
"Students don't pay the bills or run the finances of the University," he said. "It's not really the decision of students. It's more important that the University has a system that will work for them."
Diane Goddard, comptroller, said the University decided to adopt Peoplesoft as an online financial system through competitive bidding two years ago. The decision was based on the fact that the University already used Peoplesoft for other purposes, she said, and that the company offered the best pricing.
Goddard said she did not think the new financial system would complicate funding processes for student organizations. Also, she said, the system did not restrict or prevent direct student use.
"We've already trained well over 500 people to use the financial system," Goddard said. "Maybe it's a business decision, but it's not a system constraint."

Speaker aims to make impact on romance
Sex, romance and relationships are on the minds of many college students. But one group of KU students has been studying what it takes to keep relationships passionate and romantic.
Communication is the key to keeping the romance alive in relationships, Tommy Nelson, an ordained preacher and nationally renowned speaker, said last night.
This semester, through a video course, Nelson has been teaching a group of Christians within the greek community, Greek Impact, the fundamental elements of finding, securing and maintaining lasting relationships. He has been using the Bible's Song of Solomon as a base for the lessons.

is something everyone will have to deal with," he said. "You need to know how to cultivate romance and have the ability for tenderness."
He said that for relationships to stav romantic, partners should be
courteous to one another, reserve time to spend with one another and express words of love.
Maintaining a romantic relationship is not always easy, Nelson said.
"The romantic things that are instinctive early on in a relationship, aren't always that easy later," he said. "You must make it a discipline."
Nelson also said that effective communication should be a priority for partners in a relationship.
"Romance by definition means to go down deep into your heart and to share it," he said.
Throughout the semester Nelson had been outlining what qualities makes a person an outstanding partner. Kemp said.
In passionate relationships, Nelson said that women were responsive, while men were tender and compassionate. He also stressed the need for partners to respect
one another.
Marcus Brooks, a Campus Crusade staff member, said that members of the group had worked with a local temporary agency stuffing envelopes to earn enough money to pay for Nelson's trip to the University.
Greek Impact is an organization within Campus Crudse.
He said that he thought Nelson brought a fresh perspective to the issue of relationships.
"He brings it to light and makes it relevant for today." Brooks said. "He shows how it applies to every day life."
Julie Johnston, Boulder, Colo,
sophomore, said that throughout
the semester, the art of dating,
courting and intimacy had been
discussed by members of Greek

Research fund increase keeps KU on cutting edge

Kansan staff writer
For the first time since fiscal year 1994, University of Kansas research funding has increased more than $12 million from the previous year.
Money for all research and development at the University, including the KU Medical Center, totaled more than $147 million in fiscal year 1998, which is a 9.7 percent increase from the fiscal year 1997 total of $134 million.
In fiscal year 1994, research funding at KU was more than $115 million, which was an increase of $12.674 million from fiscal year 1993.
Robert Collins, manager of research information at the Center for Research, Inc., said that the $147 million represented funding for all the research conducted at KU.
Collins said that individual numbers were still being compiled and that a complete breakdown of how much money went to each school and department would not be available until sometime next week.
The largest portion of the research money — $117 million — went to science and engineering research. That places KU close to the Board of Regents' goal of $120 million for science and engineering by fiscal year 2000.
Carl Locke, dean of the school of engineering, said that the school spent $13.8 million in fiscal year 1998. That represents a 36 percent increase in funding.
Locke said that those numbers would be used to help attract the best and brightest prospective students.
"We'll try to illustrate what kind of an institution we have here," he said.
We try to illustrate what kind of an institution we have here," he said. He said that he thought research funding would keep increasing in the school of engineering, but he didn't think it would continue at the present rate.
Locke attributed the growth in funding to increased research in telecommunications, petroleum engineering and civil engineering.
Robert Barnhill, vice chancellor for Research and Public Service, said that this year's total was significant
The number also means that KU

will be seen as a better school by prospective students. Barnhill said.
"It means that we'll be considered a more prestigious university," he said. Barnhill also said that he hoped prospective students would take a closer look at KU because of the increase in research funding.
"Professors at KU are inventing the science and technology and humanities of tomorrow," he said. "Who better to learn from than these people who are on the cutting edge?"

A MODERN-DAY SCHOOL LESSON
Billy – what has the Littleton shooting taught you?
Well, Mr. Banks, I shouldn't listen to Devil music, wear a black trenchcoat, go on the Internet, or be different from anyone else.
And drawing cartoons is definitely out!

Emporia State 'compromise' falls short of anti-discrimination goal
Emporia State University's recent decision to keep sexual orientation out of its equal-opportunity policy is unfortunate. Although the effort to include a companion statement that supports the ideal of tolerance shows some effort, it falls embarrassingly short in giving true protection to groups that might feel discriminated against.
Emporia State trumpeted it's decision as a compromise that offered some measure of protection to gays and lesbians while avoiding the precarious legal aspects of non-discrimination policy. Hiding behind legal reasoning fails to explain why more than 200 colleges and universities, including the University of Kansas, include sexual orientation
The inclusion of a statement about sexual orientation doesn't provide full protection.
in their nondiscrimination clauses. One cannot reasonably believe that Emporia State is privy to some unique information regarding discrimination statutes.
Emporia State,with President Kay Schallenkamp leading the charge, has claimed that the lack of state and federal laws protecting gays and lesbians leaves them no choice but to change their policy.
At the very least, this argument shows that Emporia State is unwilling to set a precedent for nondiscrim-
ination. Fearful of legal repercussions, Emporia State is unwilling in its policy to protect its gay and lesbian students against discrimination. Regardless, Emporia State would not be on the vanguard of a trend that includes numerous schools.
The mere addition of a companion statement means that Emporia State is against discrimination but not enough to stick its collective neck out for it. By offering a compromise on this issue, ESU has only managed to compromise its own position as a tolerant university.
KU students should be glad that they attend a school committed to nondiscrimination but should be ashamed at an institution just down the road that clearly is not.

Helmets, stop signs keys to safety
Now that the sun finally has returned, more and more people can be seen riding bicycles. Though it may be inconvenient at times, it is important that cyclists make an effort to be safe.
One thing many cyclists forget is that bicycles are held to the same laws as automobiles. This includes stopping at stop signs and riding on the right side of the road.
A bicycle running a stop sign can put a pedestrian and the cyclist at risk for injury. Basically, cyclists should remember to not only watch for cars, but pedestrians as well. Pedestrians have the right of way at a crosswalk before a bicycle, so cyclists need to remember to stop and let pedestrians cross.
Bicyclists should do their part to prevent pedestrian and rider accidents.
Another way to help prevent serious injuries is to wear a helmet when riding a bicycle. According to the Consumer Product Safety Commission, only 38 percent of adult bike riders wear a helmet. Ninety-seven percent of the cyclists killed in accidents in 1997 were not wearing helmets, and 70 to 80 percent of the fatal injuries were head traumas. The statistics don't lie — a helmet is a must to ensure safety.
As is often the case, vanity gets in the way of helmet wearing. Most
people never will get in a bicycle accident, so many might think it unnecessary to wear a helmet. But, if a cyclist is in an accident, they will be glad they wore that helmet.
More than 900 deaths a year are caused by bicycles, with more than two-thirds of those deaths happening to people older than 16. Just as it is a must to wear a seatbelt in a car, it should become a necessity to wear a helmet while riding a bicycle.
People should encourage their friends to purchase helmets and wear them. It would be a real tragedy for anyone on campus to be injured or killed when it could have been prevented by something as simple as a helmet.

The last few weeks haven't been good for the soul.
From the bombings in Kosovo to the shootings in Littleton, Colo., little is happening to
Recent tragedies show twisted morals of U.S.
Perspective
assure us of the intrinsic goodness of humanity or the worth of life. On one hand, we react in terror and shock as innocent high schoolers are massacred, and on the other, we attempt to crush a country full of innocent people.
1024
Clay McCuistion opinion @ kansan.com
It's time for our priorities to change. In the wake of both of these tragedies, few people have moved beyond simplistic, cut-and-dried explanations. It's impossible for us to believe that there is anything dramatically wrong.
Simplicity rules. Violent video games made the two teenagers in Littleton kill 13 people. Cut off violent video games and the Internet where kids' minds are warped, and the problem is solved. Yeah right.
Such a culture, perpetuated in a school atmosphere, can be toxic for sensitive kids. Everyone I have spoken to since the Littleton incident has known someone similar to the gunmen. That is, kids who have difficulty dealing with a world that seems to have no place for them.
However, we can't forget Kosovo. There, our country shows again its twisted moral fiber. We want to save people from becoming refugees, so we bomb. People flee anyway. We continue to bomb, the original objective rapidly fading into the distance. The only message left: We can push around countries we don't like, because we're the United States, and we control NATO.
What about the life lessons that are taught every day? Our culture reveres shallowness. Good looks, prowess in athletic events and nice clothes should be the least of anyone's concerns. But intelligence, self-examination and extraordinary class achievement are ridiculed.
It is a worthwhile cause to prevent genocide.
Yeah. right.
But is the U.S. doing that? Or are we merely using it as an excuse to continue a mission that hasn't gone as planned? If saving innocent lives is our business, we should use all the resources at our disposal, rescue those in danger, and end it.
Instead we continue bombing, continue driving refugees out of Kosovo to starve, continue following a policy that only Bill Clinton knows and won't tell anyone else.
If it sounds as if I'm peeved by these events, it's because I am.
I am sick of people treating human life as if it has no worth and then acting shocked when others die. I'm sick of a culture that condemns gunmen in Colorado but glorifies a pointless war that is hurting thousands upon thousands
It's time to start.
Somewhere along the line, people stopped believing in the concept of "live and let live." Perhaps they never believed it.
It's time to start respecting other people no matter if they act differently than you, wear different clothes than you, or have less weapons than you. It applies to all sides. Sure, people could have treated the Littleton gunmen better. But those two should have treated everyone else better. Sure, it's wrong for the U.S. to pursue fogy military strategy. But it's wrong for the Serbs to kill their neighbors.
I'm talking about everyone. I'm talking about love. It's a corny word, a silly concept. The kind of word people snicker at when used in situations like this. We can't giggle at it any more.
Love is one of the few answers to these problems. If we can love enough, we can help to prevent situations like Littleton. If we can love enough, we can help to prevent genocide. Only, that is, if we care for others and don't let selfishness and pride blind us.
The nation is searching for simple answers. Love is not a simple answer. Love is difficult to apply in all situations. It's hard to live by. It's difficult not to judge. It's difficult to keep the soul from scabbing over.
But we must do our best.

Opposition to rec center devalues student opinion
Joe Walberg
Guest columnist

expensive and in that far off never-never land called West Campus. The proposal lost by roughly 70 percent. The Recreation Task Force knew about the previous defeat but looked into a center again to see if there was a more appealing way.
I really caught me off guard when I read that Nunemaker Senator J. D. Jenkins was trying to recall the student decision to finance a new recreation center. Student
Jenkins told the Kansan that people didn't know what they were voting for.
Apparently so, because the recreation center received more than 2800 votes, more yes votes than the other two referendums on the ballot April 14 and 15.
Senators don't usually stand in direct opposition to student opinion, especially when the vote is 2.27:1 in favor of something. But Jenkins' petition assumes that students are too dumb to hold their own opinions, and when they do, the opinions don't count.
I voted for the recreation center, and I found the proposal to be the most detailed referendum that I've ever read and certainly more detailed than the other two proposals. I read about the incremental fees program, about everything that would be inside, and lots of other stuff.
The wording was so detailed that I was surprised that it didn't even suggest a name for the facility.
Jenkins told the Kansan that people were misled about what they were voting for.
Actually, I already have an idea for the name. Ask me. I'll tell you.
Jenkins and the Delta Force vanguard cite a referendum a few years ago that proposed a major recreation center that was extravagant, and
If we assume that all voters were well informed, then we probably make a huge mistake about democratic voting in general not just about recreation centers. But if people wanted a balanced view, they could have just typed "recreation center" into the search engine at the Kansan Web Site and read more than 200 articles about the subject. Or, even better yet, they would have stopped by a Wescoe couch and asked a member of Delta Force about why they were against the new center.
---
It boils down to this: Delta Force was founded on the belief that student input was not the focus of Student Government. Preaching that voter turnout was a product of a political machine rather than best intentions, Delta Force, Jenkins's coalition, was the champion of student interest.
But I don't think that the chancellor will. The guy who sits next to me in sociology puts it this way: even if the petition collects 2000 signatures, it would still be more than 800 signatures short of the 2800-plus students saying yes to the recreation center. My sociology buddy thinks that Jenkins is trying to mislead the chancellor by claiming the Recreation Task Force misled students. And this from a guy who only attends lectures to count the "um's" said by the professor (clastime record: 238. That's more than four UPM's).
Three years later, Delta Force is starting to succeed at goals of increasing voter turnout and making it easier for student petitions like the recreation center to become referendums. The problem is that it doesn't like the fruits of their success, because it turns out that some — or most — people disagree with Delta Force about this issue.
Walberg is an Shawnee sophomore in communication studies and political science.
Actually, there are people that say the Delta Force propaganda was more prevalent and more misleading than Recreation Task Force information. So why then, if all interested people had ready and eager access to intense dissenting opinion, did it win by a larger margin than the president and vice president-elect and have more total people vote about the recreation center than about the presidential/vice presidential ticket? The unofficial result packet released by Student Senate showed that more people voted about recreation than about any other issue
Jenkins's position, according to Monday's Kansan, said that there wasn't enough voter turnout to make the vote legitimate.
then we would say the same for citywide busing, hate crime legislation, all senator seats and theoretically everything that senate did or will do next year.
Furthermore, more people voted this year than in the past five years, so it should be more indicative of student sentiment than most of the KU community has ever seen.
Feedback
Jenkins believes that if he gets 2000 petition signers, he can convince the chancellor to oppose the proposal.
Evaluation quote causes confusion
was quoted as saying that the faculty were "so jaded on that (open student evaluations) that it's not going to happen."
In the April 20 University Daily Kansan, Korb Maxwell, student body president-elect.
I am confused. If Maxwell means that the faculty continue to stand on principle
and uphold academic integrity, then he and I are in total accord. If not, then I am clueless as to his meaning.

50 local families to receive funds for better housing
By Heather Woodward
hwoodward@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
Kansan staff writer
Moving day is coming for 50 low-income families in Lawrence.
The Lawrence Housing Authority received a federal grant from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, which helps families to get back on their feet.
To qualify for assistance, the family must make less than 50 percent of the area median income. The median income for a three-person family in Lawrence is $43,600.
The families can move anywhere in Lawrence or Douglas County into the rental housing of their choice and will split their rent with the housing authority.
Charlotte Knoche, director of rental assistance programs, said that the housing authority would take referrals from local organizations detailing which 50 families should receive the assistance. She said families would be taken on a first-come, first-served basis until the $300,546 grant runs out.
"The benefit of this program is that families that are in crisis financially and have a real possibility of being split up can get help," Knoche said. "It frees up some if their financial stresses so they can work on making their family life better."
The families who will receive assistance also must be at risk for having their children removed from their homes by Child Welfare because the living environment is considered a dangerous housing situation.
A dangerous housing situation is defined as one or more of the following:
Unsafe or unsound physical structures
Rat and Insect infestation
Rat and insect infestations
Domestic violence
Homelessness
"Lawrence has a definite need for a grant like this." Knoche said. "We have over 470 families on a waiting list for assistance, and we haven't had grant funding that was targeted for families in the last four or five years."
With 76 percent of low-income families and 80 percent of very low-income families unable to make ends meet, Lynn Goodell, director of the Housing and Neighborhood Development Department, said he would characterize the housing situation in Lawrence as very needy of this type of federal assistance.
"We have high-cost housing, and low-income families can't pay the rent," Goodell said. "We need all the help we can get."
Goodell said that public housing and Section 8 housing programs, which adjust each rent based on income, also assisted about 450 low-income families in Lawrence.
HUD approved grants for 31 states, Puerto Rico and Guam. Lawrence and Hays were the only two cities in Kansas to be approved for grants for 50 families in each city and a total $401,771 in federal assistance.

Awards banquet honors Ambassadors
The KU Ambassadors honored their top participants last Sunday at an awards banquet and dinner at Pachamamas, 2161 Quall Creek Drive.
The Ambassadors are a student organization that gives tours to prospective high school students to encourage attendance at the University of Kansas.
They are required to complete one office hour and give one tour a week to maintain their position. The Ambassadors are also in charge of the Junior and Senior Days held for high school students throughout the year.
Curtis Sloan, Powhattan sophomore, was named ambassador of the year.
"It's a really big honor because all the ambassadors are great," he said. "They are such a great group of people."
Sloan missed only one office hour during the duration of the year.
Carrie Depenbusch, Columbus sophomore, and Ambassador coordinator, said Sloan embodied the perfect ambassador.
he has a great attitude, is very charismatic and is just an outstanding person," she said. "He was very deserving of the award."
Ten students were also named outstanding ambassadors for their hard work and dedication throughout the year.
Palvih Bhana, Lawrence sophomore; Jessica Dunn, Kansas City, Mo., junior; Dan Ferguson, Lawrence sophomore; Jackie Johnson, Lansing junior; Amanda Kaschube, Flossmoor, Ill., sophomore; and Kelly Harvey, Jefferson City, Mo., sophomore, were among those named.
Jennifer Miller, Great Bend sophomore; Steph Mellon, Lawrence sophomore; Gwen Perney, Topeka sophomore; and Steph Turek, Olathe sophomore, were also honored for their efforts.
when I visited KU, I had a great tour guide," she said. "I hope I have the same effect on other students."
Harvey said she became an ambassador to help influence high school students to come to KU.
"They are wonderful representatives of our school." Depenbusch said. "We just wanted to reward them for their hard work and dedication throughout the year."
The Ambassadors also honored six graduating seniors.
Jeff Lacroix, Olathe; Mandy Dye, Independence; Michael Albright, Great Bend; Kate Mcgee, Loveland, Colo.; Kendall Day, Saint Francis; and Kelly Thompson, Springfield, Mo., were awarded a prize as a token of thanks from the Office of Admissions.
Kim Beeler, assistant director of Admissions and Scholarships, said the seniors have helped younger ambassadors adjust.
"They are a great group of students and I know they will be successful later in life," she said. "I was just glad I had the pleasure of working with them."
Beeler said all the ambassadors are fun to work with because they all enjoy giving tours and working with students. Harvey agreed.
"It's just an honor to be recognized for something you love doing," she said.

Campus minister eases international students' transition
By Yoshitaka Ebisawa Special to the Kansan
Special to the Kansan
His business card reads "Friend of Internationals."
Lanny Maddux, a campus minister with Campus Christians, Inc., helps, supports and shares his love with international students at the University of Kansas.
When Qinghong Cai, graduate student from Changsha, China, found out she was going to have a job interview, she was upset. In China, people are assigned a job; they do not seek it. She did not know how she could handle an interview.
So she went to Maddux. He listed questions that he thought an interviewer might ask and met with Cai at the Kansas Union.
After practicing with the 54-year-old minister. Cai relaxed.
"I felt a fatherly love from Lanny," she said. "He is the symbol of friendship."
adjust to a new culture when they come to the United States. To help students with this challenging adjustment, Maddux runs the Lawrence Host Family Program as a co-chairman and teaches a nonprofit English class.
Cai said Maddux was a good listener and tried to understand the broken English the international students sometimes speak.
Most international students have to
"He is very patient." she said.
He is very patient, she said.
Lynne Vanahill, assistant director at International Student Services, said KU was fortunate to have Maddux.
it is difficult to think of appropriate words to define Lanny because there aren't enough generous words to describe how wonderful he is," she said. "We are extremely indebted to Lanny for all that he gives to the KU international student population."
In 1968, Maddux earned bachelors' degrees in theology and sacred literature at Ozark Christian College. He said he
has always been interested in other countries, language and especially the people.
"My goal in college was to work in another culture, helping them and teaching about Christ," he said. "I wanted to make a difference in people's lives."
His dream came true in the early '70s when Maddux and his family spent six years in Brazil as missionaries with an independent Christian church group.
"I went there because I saw a need in a country that was rapidly changing, with opportunities to make a difference," he said.
He taught a youth class in a church and in a theological education extension course, directed choirs, helped a male quartet, started a young men's singing group and helped to start a church.
"I stayed and ate with poor people, traveled with them," he said. "It really expanded my horizons."
After returning from Brazil, he served as a minister at a church in Topeka and
as an associate minister in Chicago. In 1991, Maddux and his family came to Lawrence.
He studied English as a second language at KU and earned a master's degree in 1993. He made friends with several international students in his classes.
"It is a great thrill to meet, work with and get to know students from all over the world," he said.
Patricia Maddux, his wife of 33 years, said she enjoyed having international students at their home.
"I think that the students enrich our lives" she said.
Carmen Delgado, former KU graduate student from Costa Rica, developed a friendship with Maddux during her stay in Lawrence. She said Maddux was kind and responsible.
"He is someone absolutely impossible to forget," Delgado said. "We all love him dearly."

Belgrade endures blackout, strikes continue
The Associated Press
BELGRADE, Yugoslavia — Belgrade storekeepers lighted their shops with candles and work crews slowly restored electricity yesterday after NATO blackout out the Yugoslav capital with bombs that short-circuited power stations.
It was the first time civilians in Belgrade and elsewhere across Serbia had suffered such a massive blackout since the allied air campaign began.
Yugoslav media, meanwhile, reported NATO warplanes mistakenly hit a bus, causing heavy casualties. NATO officials said they had no information on the reports of a noon-time air strike on a bus traveling from the western Kosovo city of Pec to Razoa in neighboring Montenegro.
A Montenegri government official speaking on condition of anonymity said 17 people were killed and 21 injured.
Television footage from the scene about 12 miles north of Pec showed a white bus
with shattered windows, flat tires and about three bodies on the ground on a rural mountain road.
NATO's target was thought to have been
NATO's target was to a nearby police and army checkpoint, Montena-fax said.

bodan Milosevic's military machine. Many people were still without power at dusk.
Jackson: Delivered a letter to Clinton from Milosivic proposing a meeting.
NATO has promised to target military sites and installations and to minimize
disruptions to civilians, but the latest air strikes on electrical sites temporarily affected 70 percent of Serbia, alliance officials said.
The attacks came amid fresh diplomatic efforts to end the conflict, with Russian special envoy Viktor Chernomyrdin coming to Washington yesterday to meet with President Clinton.
His efforts came a day after three U.S. servicemen were released by Milosevic during a mission by the Rev. Jesse Jackson. The men, wearing big smiles and wolfing down American food for the first time in weeks, celebrated their freedom with their families at a U.S. base in Germany.
The three, seized March 31 along the Macedonia-Yugoslavia border, were freed suddenly by Milosevic after he would not allow Red Cross officials to see them for a month.
They were examined yesterday at a military hospital, where doctors found a stitched wound on the top of the head
of Staff Sgt. Andrew Ramirez, 24, of Los Angeles.
Medical tests revealed Ramirez had two fractured ribs, one on each side, as well as swelling of his lower right leg. The injuries have begun to heal so no surgery is planned.
Staff Sgt. Christopher J. Stone, 25, of Smiths Creek, Mich., was found to have a broken nose during examination of the bruises and abrasions on his face. Doctors said Spc. Steven Gonzales, 22, of Huntsville, Texas, seemed healthy in initial checkups.
Jackson left the men and returned yesterday to Washington on a U.S. military jet with a letter to Clinton from Milosevic proposing a face-to-face meeting.
But the White House and NATO said there could be no deal until Milosevic mets all their demands, including ordering his forces out of Kosovo, a halt to mass expulsions of ethnic Albanians and accepting a Western plan that calls for 28,000 NATO troops to enforce peace in the province.
Man arrested for giving gun to Littleton suspects
The Associated Press
LITTLETON, Colo. — A man was arrested yesterday on suspicion of supplying the semiautomatic pistol used in the Columbine high massacre.
Mark Manes, 22, surrendered to authorities and was jailed on $15,000 bail for investigation of providing a handgun to a minor. He could get up to six years in prison.
"He was the last person who had it before it was supplied to one of our gunmen," said sheriff's spokesman Steve Davis.
Manes was the first person since the massacre 13 days ago to be arrested and accused of helping gunmen Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold arm themselves. Investigators have focused on anyone who could have helped them assemble and position their arsenal of guns and more than 50 bombs.
Investigators said an employee at a pizza parlor where Harris and Klebold worked served as the middleman who put the two teen-agers in touch with Manes.
the arrest came 13 days after the
attack in which Harris and Klebold — armed with a rifle, two sawed-off shotguns and the handgun — killed 12 students and a teacher and then committed suicide.
Investigators have said Klebold's girlfriend, Robyn Anderson, bought a carbine rifle and two sawed-off shotguns used in the massacre, but until yesterday they had not tied anyone to the TEC DC-9 semiautomatic handgun.
Also yesterday, Columbine students returned to classes at rival Chatfield High School.
For the rest of the school year, Chattfield students get their school for morning sessions. Columbine students, whose school is still a police crime scene, arrived around lunchtime to take over Chattfield for afternoon classes.
Three large banners adorned the school, one reading simply: "Welcome Columbine."
Chatfield, about 3 miles from Columbine, was decorated to welcome the roughly 2,000 Columbine students.
Supreme Court to clarify rights
The Associated Press
Justices to hear case about officers' power
WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court will try to decide whether people who run away after seeing a police officer can be chased, stopped and questioned.
The justicees agreed yesterday to use a case from a Chicago high-crime neighborhood to clarify on-the-street police powers vs. individual rights.
Although many Americans might assume police have the power to chase and question someone who flees at the sight of them, lower courts have been deeply divided on the issue. The justices' decision, expected sometime in 2000, could resolve that split.
At the heart of the dispute is the Fourth Amendment protection against unreasonable searches and seizures. Courts long have interpreted that protection to mean police without court warrants cannot stop and question someone without a reasonable suspicion of wrongdoing.
State courts in Alaska, California, Colorado, Maryland, Michigan, Nebraska, Nevada, New Jersey and Utah have said police generally cannot make investigative stops after pursuing someone who flees after seeing them.
Louisiana, Minnesota, North Carolina Ohio and Wisconsin have ruled that fleeing from police can create a reasonable suspicion of criminal conduct and justify a police stop.
But state courts in Connecticut, Indiana
The Illinois Supreme Court used the Chicago case to bar police most often from making such investigative stops.
In appealing that ruling, state prosecutors said a definitive ruling is needed. "Every single day, law enforcement officers at all levels throughout our country are confronted with ... whether to chase and temporarily stop a person in a high-crime area who runs away at the mere sight of the police," the appeal said.
The nation's highest court twice before had the opportunity to consider the issue in criminal cases but left it undecided.
Sam Wardlow was convicted of a weapons violation after he was arrested on a Chicago street in 1995 while carrying a loaded handgun in a bag.
Police officers in a patrol car had seen Wardlow spot them and take off running. They pursued and eventually cornered him and found the gun after a patdown search.
A state appeals court threw out his conviction, and the Illinois Supreme Court upheld that decision last September after saying "such flight alone is insufficient to create a reasonable suspicion of involvement in criminal conduct."
Clinton warns Japan to reduce steel imports
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — President Clinton warned Japan yesterday to reduce its steel imports on a consistent basis or the United States will act to block those imports.
Following a meeting with Japanese Prime Minister Keizo Obuchi, Clinton told a news conference
the United States would act to keep Japanese steel out of U.S. markets if those imports continue to exceed the levels existing prior to the Asian economic crisis.
"We will take action if steel imports do not return to their pre-crisis levels on a consistent basis," Clinton said. "Playing by the rules of trade is the best way to sustain a consensus for open trade."
A. B. HINDAL
The Commerce Department said last week it had determined that Japanese steel companies were engaging in
Obuchi: Met with Clinton at the White House.
illegal steel dumping — selling abroad at less than home-market prices — and that tariffs of up to 67 percent could be imposed on hot-rolled carbon percet a widely used product.
Such tariffs, which could be imposed retroactively to mid-November, effectively would price that type of steel out of the U.S. market.
Clinton said it was important that Japan respect both the principles of open trade and fair trade.
"I have fought for both objectives. It will help Japan adapt to the challenges of the new global economy." Clinton said.
Obuchi did not directly address Clinton's warning, but said Japan was "swiftly and boldly taking every measure in order to address the difficulties we are facing and to achieve Japan's economic recovery."
The steel troubles aside, Clinton warmly welcomed Obuchi to the White House for the first official visit of a Japanese prime minister in 12 years. He said the fact that Obuchi went to work on economic problems immediately after taking office last July was a positive indication that Japan will weather its woes.
As the two leaders met in the White House, the administration announced a package of new trade agreements in which Japan pledged greater efforts to expand sales opportunities for U.S. telecommunications companies, drug manufacturers, lumber companies, banks and brokerage firms and energy companies.
The agreements were part of a two-year effort by the administration to force Japan to deregulate its economy by removing trade barriers.

Ben Folds Five changes style, abandons quality
Ben Folds Five
The Unauthorized Biography of
Reinhold Mesner
Rating: C-
Ben Folds Five has gone from alternative to Top 40 crossover and now brushes on the edge of mediocre adult contemporary music.
By Matt Cox
Kansan music boy
pianist/read singer Ben Folds has t a k e n another turn in style with the third album. The famous critics like to say he has "matured" on the new album. All Folds did was try something new so he wouldn't get stereotyped as a certain style.
It comes as no surprise that
Maturity? No. The decision to metamorphosize had the potential for an excellent album, a horrible album or The Unauthorized Biography of Reinhold Messner.
Folds messes with horns and unique percussion, on a lot of the tracks to try to cover up the gaping hole where a guitar part should be.
The previous two albums were written in an intelligent way so that the piano served nicely as the rhythm instrument.
With the new album, there is an element missing in the way the music was written. The bass lines tend to use more distortion effects to try to get a rock guitar sound.

phone.
It doesn't work.
Of course, whenever the music gets going, something about it brings to mind Harvey Danger's Flagpole Sitta with the addition of xylo-
Oh well. It's still a nice song that radio listeners will hear for at least another two weeks.
Also, don't expect any song to replicate the success of their VH-1-esque Brick.
What you will find is unique coffeehouse-acid piano on tracks like *Narcolepsy* and *Your Redneck Past*. They are reminiscent of Folds' side project, Fear of Pop, featuring William Shatner and members of Fleming and John. Both songs flirt with odd drum explosions at even weirder times.
Once the weirdly cool drum track settles in, so does the fact that *Narcolepsy* has intense classical overtones. Piano riffs fly away in a super-happy-like way. It then explodes four
minutes later while Folds sings "I'm not tired" about 70 times. The idea for the song is commendable.
But as far as entertainment value,it's not worth listening to again and again.
Not all the songs are experimental.
Don't Change Your Plans is the best contender for the follow-up single.
It's a love song about how the only reason Folds wants to stay on Earth is for a girl. Cute! Folds sings, "All I really wanna say is that you're the reason I wanna stay."
Regrets reminisces the second-grade love experience. It's the most interesting song on the album. Once you think the song is going to be modern, effects make his vocals sound straight out of a '70s B-movie. Then the beat takes on a fast, techno rhythm to totally throw the listener for a loop. It never gets old. Too bad that couldn't be said for most of the other songs.
Fans of Ben Folds Five should pick this album to stay faithful. Fans of Brick shouldn't go near it.

Muppets and more coming to silver screen
It seems that every year about this time there are certain things a person can count on. As summer creeps near, students spend more time on the porch of The Crossing than in class; Royals fans give up hope for even moderate success; and Entertainment Tonight interviews Will Smith about his upcoming summer blockbuster movie.
Well, truth be told, Will Smith didn't have a big summer movie last year. No doubt those holding stock in movie studios are excited about this summer's Wild, Wild West. Not venturing too far from the success of the special-effects filled Independence Day and Men in Black, Wild, Wild West has Smith in another good-guy role. This time around he is James T. West, out to save President Ulysses S. Grant from assassination at the hands of a 19th century villain. Those who enjoyed the earlier incarnations of Smith's moral hero role will no doubt like this version.
Above: The Muppets embark on an extraterrestrial adventure in hopes of finding Gonzo's long-lost family from a distant planet in *Muppets From Space*. Right: In the live-action feature *Inspector Gadget*, a scientist (Joely Fisher, right) transforms a security guard (Matthew Broderick) with robotic parts after he nearly meets a fatal end. Both movies are due out this summer. Contributed photos
While Smith finds success playing nice guys in action movies, Kevin Costner finds success playing baseball. For Love of the Game showcases Costner as a legendary pitcher whose career is quickly winding down. The movie's director is Sam Raimi, who recently directed the critically acclaimed A Simple Plan, as well as the Eulid Dead trilogy.
The late Stanley Kubrick's last film, Eyes Wide Shut, features Nicole Kidman and Tom Cruise naked — really naked. More substantive information about the film is very hard to get, though rumors are abound on the Internet. Warner Brothers worked hard to keep the movie from getting slapped with the taboo of an NC-17 rating because of its explicit drug use and sexual content. The studio succeeded and announced this week that the film received an R rating.
There hasn't been a decent Muppets movie since The Muppet Christmas Carol, and that wasn't nearly as good as any of the first three Muppet movies. This summer's Muppets From Space seems more along the lines of the original The Muppet Movie series, so hope remains.
Everyone's favorite Cajun, Adam Sandler, will return to the big screen in Big Daddy. Sandler's character has just been dumped by his girlfriend for avoiding responsibility, so to prove his maturity, he adopts a five-year-old kid. It's natural to be suspicious of any movie that has a cute kid as a principal character, and it might be hard for Sandler's brand of humor to get past the precious close-ups of the kid.
After a string of rather mediocre movies, Spike Lee will try again with
Summer of Sam. Set in 1977, the movie tells the tale of one New York neighborhood's reaction to the perceived threat of the serial killer Son of Sam. More about paranoia and witch hunts than the actual killings, this movie has the potential to return Lee to his rightful status.
Disney's animated version of

Disney's animated version Tarzan will be entertaining for those whose idea of excitement is using toasted Wonder Bread on their bologna sandwiches. Disney will also be profiling from Generation Xers who feel nostalgic about Inspector Gadget.
Hugh Grant and Julia Roberts are sure to be adorable in Notting Hill, in which Grant plays the owner of a bookstore and Roberts makes the huge leap of playing a movie star. It's just a guess, but most
Kevin Kline, left, as Artemus Gordon and
Bowfinger will unite Eddie Murphy and Steve Martin for the first time. Frank Oz, who directed In & Out, also directed this movie. That's a bit omous, but it will be interesting to see if Murphy and Martin can create any onscreen chemistry
likely the odd couple will fall in love, have problems, realize their love for each other and live happily ever after.
Will Smith as James West team up in Wild, Wild West, a comedy with action, fantasy and adventure, coming out this summer.In front is The Tarantula, a diabolical weapon and transportation device invented by Dr. Artiss Loveless, played by Kenneth Branagh.

An organically grown tomato looks ripe and ready inside Hertzel's greenhouse.
Tubes transport nutrients to Hertzel's tomatoes.

A murky colored chemical solution is contained in a large metal trough in David Hertzel's greenhouse.
Patience a requisite for organic farmers
Continued from page 1A
Breaking even
beating. Sometimes that's all it ever teaches you."
On a hill off the road, 20 miles north of Hickerson' farm, stands a barn-size green house where Beefstek tomatoes swell on 800 vines so thick they might gue bridges.
Soon none of them will be certified organically grown. David Hertzel is calling organics nuits.
"Some people live and die by organics," he says. "It's a religion for them."
Hertzel pauses inside his greenhouse, a green-ballled ball cap perched atop his head, a crackling CB on his hip, and dabs his left thumb into a tray of Early Girl and Big Beef tomato seedlings, all just a two leaves or less at this stage.
"They're all dried out," he says. "In sun like this they'll dry out in a day."
Five fans that look like jet engines rumble into life at the cue from an unseen computer. The fans ventilate plastic tubes, which inflate and unfurl like party favors under the translucent roof. Barrel-chested tomato plants inhabit the space beneath. Reared on seaweed, bone meal, blood meal, alfalfa and a little rock phosphate, the plants idle above Hertzel and the hay-strewn aisles like sleeping circus elephants.
Some of the tomatoes produced by these plants will go to a limited number of contracted customers. Most will be sold to Hv-Yve or the Community Mercantile.
A different approach
About half of these plants are organically grown. The other half are hydroponic, which means they are grown without soil and depend upon a chemical solution washing over their roots for their nutrients. Consequently, they don't qualify as organic.
Hertzel plans to switch his entire production to hydroonic.
As high-tech as his greenhouse is, Hertzel can't keep his soil fortified. The plants that come up are punier and more disease-susceptible, he says. Over the last few years he's seen his soil produce fewer tomatoes, around 500 pounds a week when he used to reach 900 pounds. Under organic rules, Hertzel can't use stronger synthetic fertilizers to revitalize his soil, and he can't afford to rest his soil any longer.
"The earth wasn't created to sit there and grow something over and over again," he says. "It's very rare to see a greenhouse succeed with soil alone."
"We couldn't keep production up," he says. "Organic farming wasn't financially supporting us."
The price of paying an inspection agency to certify his greenhouse taxed his earnings too hard.
"It's a racket, this organic certification," he says. "We say hundreds of dollars for inspection. We were very careful. But they won't let me commingle certain activities."
Diane Dysar, executive secretary for Eastern Kansas Organic Crop Improvement Association, says that farmers pay $250 a year to be able to use their organically certified label. They then pay a quarter-percent royalty fee on their gross organic sales.
Requirements for being certified are strenuous.
Fields must be chemical-free for three years, and the entire operation must be organically up to snuff within five years, Dysar says. They sometimes make exceptions on a case-by-case basis.
case in point: when inspectors came to Hertzel's greenhouse, they noticed the bags of rat bait he had used to ward off mice instead of Hertzel's full compliance with other standards.
Still, the restrictions needle Hertzel, who says inspectors lose sight of the larger picture in their imposition of requirements.
"They told me they had to go," Hertzel says. "But if I take them away the mice will literally eat my greenhouse."
"It's just too, too hard," he says. "We just about broke even last year."
These concerns consume too much of his time and money. Hertzel says.
And if you only break even, he says, in the long run, you only break down.
"They just taste better."
1.
The fact is, Hertzel doesn't need the organic certification.
"I get just as much for the non-organic as I do for the organic," he says.
He doesn't need the label in part because he can still advertise his tomatoes as pesticide and herbicide-free.
In lieu of employing conventional pesticides, Hertzel dispatches an armada of beneficial insects—a fleet of 100,000 lacewings, squadrons of tiny, parasitic wasps and the slow-moving, but deadly ladybugs—all of which destroy plant life or anphils.
This strategy also reduces Hertzel's reliance upon organically certified, but still-poisonous pesticides.
More to the matter, Hertzel's tomatoes just taste better, says Sula Teller, kitchen manager at Milton's restaurant.
She takes out a cardboard box from a stainless-steel refrigerator. In the box, twenty ruddy organics roll up against a plum-colored, conventionally-grown tomato.
"There is a perceptible difference between organic and non-organic," she says, explaining that organic tomatoes have firmer consistency and better skin.
"Can't you see the difference?" Teller asks, holding up the conventional tomato for inspection
Sliced open, the organic tomatoes show a thick, vine-ripened interior, with a homicidal hue of red.
Teller says she uses organic tomatoes whenever the price drops low enough to fit within her budget.
"People aren't going to walk by a good tomato and spend 50 percent to make it organic." Hertz says.
But that's just it — avid fans of the organic tomato have their economic limits.
Sam Newcome, a cook at the Community Mercantile, agrees.
The sun shines down on one of the 800 tomato vines in David Hertzel's greenhouse.
"The only difference between organic and non-organic, if it's produced locally, is that you pay more for the first," he says.
Producing locally, however, is the financial condition organic farmers are in a position to exploit.
Sellina to a local market
Dan Nagengast's hair is wet.
Barr coat against the skin.
Rivulets of rain water drip from his ears as he slogs through one of his smaller fields in mud-spackled boots.
"The plants like this weather," he says.
Nagengast grew up on a traditional farm, then raised crops in West Africa for the Peace Corps and has run three farms in the last eight years.
He has planted two rows of parsley plants and now generously sprinkles a yellow powder that will dry up the root hairs of weeds.
Only four and a half acres of his 20-acre farm are in production, and he's probably making more money on his four-and-a-half than a conventional farmer makes on 1.100. he says.
He knows what he's doing. He's the executive director of the Kansas Rural Center, a non-profit organization that promotes organic farming.
"Last year was a particularly crappy year," Nagen-
gast says, adding that Hickerson shouldn't feel bad about losing money. "All farmers lost money on just about every acre."
But because Nagengast marketed his produce directly to consumers, he was less affected by global market prices.
Nagenagst and his family linked up with seven other small, organic farms six years ago to form the Rolling Prairie Farmers Alliance. For a $50 subscription fee, the Alliance delivers a weekly allotment of fresh produce that is 1,500 miles fresher than what fills most grocery stores.
Nengagest says that the Alliance has brought good money, largely because it puts the produce directly in the hands of consumers and takes the farmer out of the global economy. Farmers can pocket retail prices for their produce because there is no middle man.
ing straight to the customer lets farmers control their own destiny.
It's a marketing plan that would be advantageous for farmers like Hertzel, for whom the cost of organic certification is too high.
"If you can look your customer in the eye and say it's organically grown, then you probably don't need certification," Nagenga says.
income, 'he says. Sell-
Organic farmers can sell more than their produce, however.
Nagengast can sell the allure of his calendar-perfect farm.
People can pay to cut flowers from Nagen-gast's gardens that grow within sight of a glassy little pond that would make Thoreau pout with envy. As for the view, it's pasturelands all the way down the valley.
Nengagest says that he and his family have moved three times in the last eight years, always toward better land and better markets, putting their profits back into their farm and equipment.
this year we will probably start tak
ing some out," he says.
Bouncina back
Heading back from his hallowed field of
cocoa-powder topsoil, Hickerson gestures with a tan arm toward where 12 vines rise, like charmed snakes, crookedly into the sky.
Within a few years those vines will become a gooseberry hedgerow, pumping out bushels of the coveted fruit.
This week, Hickerson will launch a home-delivery service similar to Nagenast's Alliance, and he'll soon have customers making reservations to spend the day on his farm.
next week Hickerson will put peach, pear,
apple and cherry trees into the ground.
"Every year things get better," he says.
This farm will restore your faith in food.

'Hawks strive to break losing streak
After losing to K-State, Randall may get chance for 400th victory tonight against Washburn
By Matt Tait sports@kansan.com Kansan sportwriter
Nearly two weeks ago the Jayhawk baseball team ended an all-time school record losing streak of 12 games by defeating Rockhurst College in dramatic fashion. Since then, the Jayhawks as they have run up another losing streak of seven games.
The latest of the losses came this weekend at the hands of Kansas State. The Wildcats came to Lawrence and swept Kansas in three straight games — 8-6 in 10 innings, 10-3 and 6-2.
Tonight's game against Washburn University provides the 'Hawks with the best opportunity to end that streak. It also offers them a chance to get coach Bobby Randall his 400th career coaching victory.
Despite 400 wins being a major milestone and making him just the fifth active coach in the Big 12 to achieve the mark, Randall is downplaying the number and focusing on finishing the season strong.
"I just want to win," Randall said. "That 400 mark is more for the news and the media than anybody. I'm just concerned about improving every day and playing better baseball."
Kansas' Big 12 season is finished, and with a 4-26 mark the 'Hawks finished the worst they have in the existence of Big 12 baseball. The record marks show the worst-winning percentage since the 1987 team went 3-21 in the Big 8.
At Oklahoma, only a late-inning grand slam
Despite that fact, there were several games this season in conference play that the Jayhawks could have, and maybe should have, won. Youth, inexperience and costly mistakes led to losses in several of games.
in game two separated Kansas from winning the series. And at home against Baylor Eric Nelson's three-homer day — the third of which came in the ninth inning — canceled Shane Wedd's two-homer day to edge the 'Hawks 4-3. At Missouri, Kansas' inability to hold a lead destroyed any hopes of winning as they jumped out with six runs in the first only to the lead slip away losing 14-12.
The losing record does not indicate the level of talent in the Kansas dugout. The record does indicate that at key times in key games, the Jayhawks could not deliver.
With a losing record logged deep in their memories but heavy on their hearts, the players prepare to finish out May with intensity, pride and, most importantly, wins.
"People say we have nothing left to play for, but they're wrong." Wedd said. "We're playing for ourselves. It's still fun to win, and we want to show that we can do that."
"Yeah, I think that's what we're trying to do with the last part of the season, play hard and get some wins," outfielder Doug Dreher said.
Tonight, the final quarter hot dog night of the season, the Jayhawks will have the opportunity to get on the winning track and finish the season strong.
The Ichabods come to Lawrence sporting a 25-14 record on the season but trailing in the overall KU-WU series. Tonight's game marks the 81st meeting between the two schools with Kansas holding a 62-18 edge, including a 43-3 mark in Lawrence.
The first pitch is scheduled for 7 p.m.

Commentary Columnist mulls coach's longevity alcohol hypocrisy
Sitting around while trying to figure out why the Kansas baseball team is so bad, my mind wandered into other areas.
Instead, I offer some thoughts on things such as Roy William's longevity, a little chancellor hypocrisy and the demise of Kansas track.
After all, with graduation looming, my time is running out
Kansas coach Roy Williams should sign a 10- or 15-year contract extension and publicly announce he will NEVER take the North Carolina coaching job.
After each season, Williams must deal with rumors that he is bolting for North Carolina.

It is his home and a dream job for Williams, but Kansas
is where the coach belongs.
is where the user can cement himself as the greatest coach to lead the Crimson and Blue. It is an honor he is slowly taking away from "Phog" Allen. But he can only do it if he stavs at Kansas.
At North Carolina, no one, not even Williams, can step out of the Dean Smith shadow.
If Williams signed a long-term deal and promised to never go to North Carolina, he would not have to battle the rumors that he hates so much.
Until he does that, then it is appropriate to assume Williams is waiting for an opportunity to slip into the Carolina job, and he should stop feigning surprise at the constant rumors.
Chancellor Robert Hemenway should demand that the Athletics Department either allow alcohol to be served to everyone at football games or to no one.

Rowing team misses nationals by seconds
By Matt James
Kansan sportswriter
When it came down to it, the Jayhawks just didn't have enough left at the finish.
Kansas' first varsity eight boat, which is ranked 23rd in the U.S. Rowing coaches poll, finished sixth in the final with a time of 6:41.17. The Jayhawks trailed only Wisconsin, Michigan State, Michigan, Iowa and Ohio State—all currently ranked 26th or higher.
The Kansas women's rowing team recorded two sixth-place finishes Sunday at the Midwest Rowing Championships in Madison, Wis. Unfortunately, it wasn't enough to qualify the Jayhawks for the NCAA Women's Rowing Championships in Sacramento, Calif.
"As a team, we rowed and competed in every race better than ever before," said coach Rob Catloth. "The first varsity eight rowed very mature through the progressive system to the finals."
Just getting to the finals wasn't enough for the improved Jayhawks. And what may be most disappointing for the first eight is that they posted the second-fastest time of the entire regatta in the semifinals with a 6:16.
"It was calm in the morning for the semifinals, and we had a pretty strong headwind for the final," said Keesha Cravens, Valley Center junior, of the Jayhawk's 30-second time differential on Sunday. "We weren't disappointed with our performance, though. We had a plan, and we executed it to a tee. It's just frustrating because we worked
Rowing
"If we were gonna be in the top three, we just wanted to race it through at an even pace," Cravens said. "Then in the finals, it's all you got left."
With four races in two days, Kansas needed a plan to conserve energy for the finals on Sunday. With eighth-ranked Michigan State in its first heat, the Jayhawks saw an opportunity to do just that.
hard but had to face so many good schools."
What they had left came up eight seconds short of the Iowa Hawkeyes, who claimed the fourthplace finish Kansas needed to qualify for nationals.
Kansas was eliminated in the semifinals of the women's varsity four race after finishing fourth with a time of 7:19.45, and the Jayhawks' first novice eight boat was also eliminated in the semifinals after finishing fourth with a time of 63.78.82.
The Jayhawks' second novice boat also finished sixth in its respective final, trailing only Ohio State, Notre Dame, Wisconsin, Texas and Michigan. Kansas finished with a time of 7:11.2
The Jayhawks end their season when they compete in rowing's equivalent of the NIT Saturday, May 15, in the Central Region Championships in Oak Ridge, Tenn.

Streaking 'Hawks looking toward regional action
Softball needs win vs. Wichita
After winning 10 of its last 13 games, the Kansas softball team will get one final tune-up before entering postseason play when the Jayhawks face Wichita State in today's doubleheader.

Kansan sportwriter
The games are scheduled for 3 and 5 p.m. at Jayhawk Field.
Although neither game will affect the team's positioning in the Big 12 Conference tournament next week, both games are crucial in the Jayhawks' hopes at regional play. The Jayhawks currently boast a 27-26 record and need to add a few more wins to give themselves some breathing room.
The Jayhawks will be taking on a Shockers squad that has struggled this season and stands at 21-36. Kansas isn't deceived by that record, though. Although the Jayhawks beat Wichita State
"We need to win these games to go to regional," junior Christy McPhall said. "You have to be over .500 to be even considered for regional, and we're one game over right now, so we need to win them both."
Bunge said Wichita State touted a solid pitching staff that could give the Kansas batters some trouble. The Shockers are solid in the field as well.
"It'll be real important going back into Big 12 tournament play," Bunge said. "This year is the first year the conference tournament is open for anyone to win. It's totally wide open. Anyone who gets hot next week is going to win it."
Bunge emphasized the importance of today's games as building blocks for the conference tournament.
twice two weeks ago, 3-1 and 1-0, they know they will have to bring their best game to win.
"We're expecting a battle from them. We only won 1-0 in the second game of the doubleheader. It's going to be a hard-fought game. We need to go out and play 14 solid innings," coach Tracy Bunge said.
5
One thing the Jayhawks have going for them is confidence. After a midseason eight-game losing streak, the team has turned up the heat.
"We've been playing with a lot of confidence going towards the end of the year." Bunge said. "I feel much better with the way we've been playing the last month. I think the losing streak made the kids appreciate what we've been doing lately a lot more."

Today's Birthday (May 4). Schedule the vacation of your dreams in May so you'll have something worth saving for. In June, the money is coming in, but hold onto it. July is good for buying property or fixing up what you have. In November, a partner urges you to do something that's good for you, and in December, you're savings could multiply. To get the advantage, check the day's rating: 10 is the easiest day, 0 the most challenging.
Aries (March 21-April 19): Today is a 5.
Everything's going just about as well as it did yesterday, except for a couple loose ends that need your attention. Don't get overconfident. Even though you're still able to go very fast, little details could make you slip and fall.
Taurus (April 20-May 20): Today is a 7.
Looks like you could be tempted to take a risk today.
Think about it two or three times, then let it go. This is a really interesting situation. Things look good but maybe a little bit too good. Don't participate in a game so somebody else can win.

Cancer (June 22-July 22): Today is a 6.
You should be doing pretty well today, especially financially. Looks like you're getting some money that you've worked for and perhaps a bonus. Others haven't done quite as well, so don't brag.

You're still full of great ideas, but it's almost time to start getting to work on them. It looks like in one particular could turn out to be quite beneficial, maybe even a good source of income. You may not be quite sure how to proceed yet, but don't feel. The time to take action will come soon.

There may be a pop quiz first thing this morning, but after that's over, you'll notice yourself getting stronger. You'll probably do pretty well on the quiz, too. It just that somebody wants to know if you finished whatever you promised. Once the deadline is past, things will go smoothly.

SPORTS BRIEFS AND SCORES
The University of Kansas Athletics Department named Ryan Robertson the Senior Male Scholar-Athlete of the Year and swimmer Adrienne Turner the Senior Female Scholar-Athlete of the Year at the 1999 Academic Achievement Recognition Reception last night.
Robertson, who holds a 3.65 grade point average in Business Administration, is a three-time All-Academic Big 12 selection and was a Big Eight All-Academic honorable mention pick in 1996.
Turner, who finished 19th at the NCAA Championships in the 200 butterfly and 29th in the 100 butterfly, has a 3.93 grade point average in Advertising/Broadcast Management. She is a three-time All-Academic Big 12 selection and was an All-Academic Big Eight selection in 1996.

Basketball standout to sign with Missouri
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Pembroke Hill basketball standout Kareem Rush plans to sign with the Missouri Tigers today, according to a report in The Kansas City Star.
Rush, a 6-foot-7 all-state selection, averaged nearly 30 points a game at Pembroke Hill in Kansas City. He led the team to its third straight Missouri 2A state championship in March.
The highly-recruited forward indicated his decision to the Star on Sunday night.
Rush was supposed to sign a national letter of intent last Tuesday, but he delayed his decision to be completely sure about his choice.
"It's almost a done deal," Rush told
Rush had also considered signing with Connecticut and UCLA, where his brother, JaRon, is a freshman.
the Star about his plans to join the Tigers. "I'm pretty happy with it. Most of my close friends already know."
Kareem told the Star that JaRon has said he might leave UCLA for the NBA after his sophomore year. Living in Los Angeles with his brother for only one season wasn't appealing, he said.
Bill Bennett, UCLA's sports information director for men's basketball, said Friday that it was pretty obvious UCLA would lose the Rush sweep-stakes.
Rush's mother, Glenda Rush, had hoped her sons would team up in college, and Rush would get away from home.
"I haven't gotten the idea from any body around here that he's going to come," Bennett said.

RALEIGH, N.C. — Carolina Hurricanes defenseman Steve Chisson was killed early yesterday when his pickup truck overturned hours after his team was eliminated from the playoffs in Boston.
Chiassion, a 32-year-old native of Barrie, Ontario, died about 4:15 a.m. EDT in the accident in north Raleigh, Trooper K.L. Horn of the State Highway Patrol said.
Horn said Chiasson was thrown from the truck after it ran off the road and flipped. Highway Patrol Sgt. Jeff Winstead said evidence at the scene and interviews suggested Chiasson might have been drinking.

He spent eight years with the Detroit Red Wings before he was traded to the Calgary Flames in 1994 and in 1997 to the Hartford Whalers.
He was drafted by Detroit in 1985 and played his first NHL game the following year. In 1988-89, he led all Red Wings' defensmen with 47 points. in 1989-90, he scored a career-high 14 goals and again led all Detroit defensmen in scoring with 42 points.
PODGORICA, Yugoslavia — For the first time, the Montenegro basketball team Buducnost won Yugoslavia's basketball championship — not in a dramatic final game but because of NATO air strikes.
Chiasson played in his first NHL All-Star game in 1993. At Calgary, he was rated second among Flames' defensemen in scoring in 1995-96 with 33 points and notched the 300th NHL career point on Nov. 29, 1995.
Air strikes end season for Yugoslav basketball
For years, Buducnost (Future) was defeated by clubs from Serbia, such as Crvena Zvezda (Red Star) or Partizan. Serbia and Montenegro make up present-day Yugoslavia.
Chiasson is survived by his wife,
Susan, two sons and a daughter.
But this year, the NATO air assault forced the Yugoslav Basketball Federation to stop the season for security reasons.
After a weeks-long debate, the federation, comprised of teams from Serbia and Montenegro, announced last week that Buducnost had earned the most points during the regular season and was declared the champion.
The victory means Budencost will compete next year in the European Basketball League, and some of the team's players could be sought by stronger European teams.

Big 12 Conference Champions
KU golf scores more than titles
Golf coach receives conference honor
By Brad Hallier sports@kansan.com Kansan writerwriter
Things just keep getting better for the Kansas men's golf team.
One week ago today, the Jayhawks became the first team north of the Oklahoma border to win a conference championship since Missouri's win in 1984. That win marked the first conference title for Kansas since 1950.
"This is a tremendous accomplishment for us in this league, given the strength of the southern schools." said Richard Konzem, associate athletics director. "We don't have the best weather in Kansas, and we have a program that challenges Oklahoma State and Texas and to win over teams like that with so much tradition in
golf is really impressive."
Indeed, the Big 12 Conference has been one of the elite conferences. At one time, seven teams were ranked in the top 50. Kansas entered the Big 12 Championships ranked 30th, but there were four teams ranked ahead of the Jayhawks, including fifth-ranked Oklahoma State.
Konzez, who oversees golf at the University, compared the Jayhawks victory in Hutchinson to Texas' men's basketball winning the Big 12 basketball crown.
"Beating Oklahoma State and other southern schools is like winning a conference basketball title over KU." he said.
After Kansas clinched the title, the good news continued.
Last week, junior Brad Davis and redshirt freshman Casey Harbour were named to the Academic All-Big 12 team.
Then to top off the week, senior
Chris Thompson and junior Ryan Vermeer were named to the Big 12 All-Conference team, and Kansas coach Ross Randall was named Big 12 Coach of the Year.
"I make a few decisions, but they are the ones who put the ball in the hole," Randall said.
Since Randall took over as men's golf coach in 1980, the Jayhawks have finished second at the conference tournament four times, and twice Randall was named Big 8 Coach of the Year.
Thompson, a 1998 All-American, has had an up-and-down year, but Randall said that he expected more good things from the Big 12 individual runner-up when regional play begins on May 20.
"He has not had a steady year, but he finishes well in the important events," Randall said. "I'm really happy for Ryan and Chris. They are both among the top golfers in the country."

Commentary
Alcohol in stadium skyboxes is unfair to regular crowd
Continued from page 1B
People who will sit in the skyboxes being built at Memorial Stadium will be allowed to drink alcohol, while regular fans still will be denied the privilege.
The reason: money. Skybox people are more important to the Athletics Department than anyone else because they have deeper pockets.
But it is hypocritical of the chancellor to demand that the campus be dry, while at the same time allowing those with money to drink up.
He should step in and tell Bob Frederick, athletics director, that alcohol in the skyboxes is unacceptable.
If he doesn't, then no one should take the chanceller seriously when he tells people that curbing alcohol consumption on campus is a priority of his.
- The Athletics Department must put a proposed track facility on the fast track. What once was one of the most successful track programs in the country is not even a powerhouse in its own conference.
One reason is that the track and field athletes don't have an adequate facility. And the Athletics Department is to blame.
The Memorial Stadium track has been warped for
years and, in the meantime, the department has dragged its feet on rectifying the problem.
It has been decided that a track stadium will be constructed, but the department has moved extremely slow with the plans.
Meanwhile, the Kansas Relays, once a premier track event, have been canceled two years consecutively, and the track program has faltered
Without an adequate facility, it is impossible to recruit and difficult to compete.
The Athletics Department should be embarrassed for not being closer to breaking crowd on a track stadium. Rome was built faster than this.
Can the Jayhawk fly? And if it can't, why not? I mean, if you are going to invent a bird and use it as a mascot, wouldn't common sense dictate that the bird should be able to fly. If it can't fly, then the Jayhawk is simply a colorful penguin.
As for why the baseball team is suffering, two reasons; coaches and players.
The team continues to make the same mistakes again and again, which means that players and coaches are not doing their jobs. Plain and simple.

Confidence drives'Hawks into postseason
Continued from page 1B
McPhail agreed.
"We have gotten a lot better. Our only problem is we've been inconsistent with our intensity. I think we've gained some confidence, and we're having fun." McPhail said.
Winning today would set a positive tone for the team heading into the postseason, and Bunge said her team would be ready to meet the challenge.
"This team has enough confidence in themselves. They believe in themselves, and they believe they can beat anyone in the conference if they play the way they're capable of playing." Bunge said. "I believe we can win it, too."

K-State coach wanted team further along for this spring
The Associated Press
MANHATTAN, Kan — The Kansas State spring game Saturday left coach Bill Snyder feeling nothing but disappointment.
Adam Helm threw for 205 yards and a touchdown, completing 15-of-33 passes as the Purple beat the White 22-3. But it was not enough for Snyder as he seeks a replacement for quarterback Michael Bishop.
I was not overly impressed with Adam's play in the ball game," Snyder said. "I've seen him do far better than that. I think above and beyond it all with Adam it was a matter of accuracy. He hasn't taken a dominant step for
forward for me
to say this is the guy
for the job."
Four quarterbacks played, but Jonathan Beasley was not among
C
them. Beasley, another possible successor to Bishop, sat out with a minor hand injury suffered early in spring practice.
Fullback Johno Lazetich, center Randall Cummins, receiver Aaron Lockett, defensive end Darren Howard, linebacker Travis Litton, cornerback Dyshod Carter and running back Chris Claydon also are sitting out with injuries.
David Allen suffered an ankle injury in the fourth quarter after rushing for 48 yards. Frank Murphy had 89 yards on 21 carries.
Quincy Morgan caught three passes for 93 yards and tight end Nick Warren had five catches for 68 yards.
Jamie Rheem kicked two 40-yard field goals.
Snyder said the Wildcats were not playing up to his expectations.
"Spring has not gone as well as I would have liked," he said. "It's just not as good of a football team as I would have liked at this particular point in time. I expected us to be a little further along than we are.
"We did the same scrimmage a week ago. The offense did well and the defense wasn't as productive as I expected. I think those things have turned around a bit. Today was purely vanilla, but it's important to evaluate fundamentals."
Lewis' wife, doctors dispute drug use
BOSTON — When Celtics captain Reggie Lewis collapsed and died while practicing jump shots in 1993, he left a pregnant wife, thousands of fans and a star team of physicians wondering what went wrong.
The Associated Press
In the years since, a battle of reputations has been waged between Lewis' family and some of the city's most prominent physicians.
They started fighting it out before a jury yesterday.
Lewis' widow says the physicians who treated her husband during his last months misdiagnosed and mistreated a fatal heart condition. The physicians contend Lewis used cocaine and lied about it, making an accurate diagnosis impossible.
The malpractice suit pits Donna Harris-Lewis against Gilbert H. Mudge, the physician who led the specialists, and Mark Creager and Peter Friedman, physicians who were consultants.
A third consultant, John Rutherford, physician, recently reached a settlement with Harris-Lewis, the terms of which have not been disclosed.
Superior Court Judge Thayer Fremont-Smith imposed a gag order, and none of the main players in the case would comment publicly.
But the story of Lewis' death and the finger-pointing that followed have played themselves out very publicly in a city that loved its Celtics and adored the team's brightest star when he died at 27.
It all began April 29, 1983, when Lewis collapsed during a playoff game against the Charlotte Hornets. A "Dream Team" of New England Baptist Hospital physicians assembled by the Celtics diagnosed him with arrhythmia, potentially life-threatening.
career-end ing heart condition.
the grim conclusion led Lewis to seek a second opinion from one of Boston's
BOSTON CELTICS
most respected cardiologists, Mudge of Brigham and Women's Hospital.
Mudge reported that Lewis suffered from a neurological disorder that causes fainting spells
With proper treatment, he said. Lewis could return to professional basketball.
Three months later, on July 27, Lewis died while shooting hoops in the offseason at Brandiselle University in Waltham, Mass.
The state medical examiner listed the cause of death as adenovirus 2, a common virus that could have led to inflammation of the heart, widespread scarring of tissue and, ultimately, a fatal cardiac arrest.
Autopsy consultants later said Lewis had "athlete's heart" — a left ventricle that had become enlarged from pumping massive amounts of blood. Everyone who examined Lewis' body agreed there was no evidence of cocaine use, which could be an explanation for the scarring.
But Mudge later said that two
weeks before Lewis died, the player admitted using cocaine in the past but said he had stopped. The lack of full disclosure early in the treatment process made it impossible to make a proper diagnosis. Mudge has claimed.
In the last several months, the two sides have sparred about the right to bring up the alleged drug use at trial.
On April 21, Fremont-Smith ruled that jurors could hear the accusations — if the physicians' lawyers could prove cocaine was a factor in misdiagnosing Lewis.
Harris-Lewis, who still lives in the Boston area with her son, 7-year-old Reggie Jr., and daughter, 5-year-old Reggiena, has maintained she tried to get evidence of alleged drug use excluded because the charges only sensationalized and hid the true issue.
Former Braves' hitter dies
Joe Adcock hit 336 runs during his 17-year career
The Associated Press
Joe Adcock, who hit 336 home runs during his career and broke up baseball's longest no-hitter, died today. He was 71.
Adcock had Alzheimer's disease and died at his home in Coushatta, La., at 3:15 a.m., said his daughter, Jan Adams.
The first baseman came to the majors in 1950 with Cincinnati and was traded to the Milwaukee Braves in 1953, the team's first year in that city. He played on the Braves' World Series championship team in 1957 and National League pennant winner in 1958.
A teammate of Hank Aaron, Eddie Mathews and Warren Spahn, Adcock's best season was 1956 when he hit 38 home runs and batted.291
Adcock was perhaps best known for turning a perfect game into a loss for Pittsburgh's Harvey Haddix on May 26, 1959, at Milwaukee.
Haddix retired the first 36 batters he faced —12 perfect innings. In the 13th, the Braves' Felix Mantilla reached on an error and moved to second on a sacrifice by Mathews. After Aaron was walked intentionally, Adcock homered to end the no-hitter and win the game.
The score was listed as 1-0 because Adcock inadvertently passed Aaron on the base paths.
Adcock recalled the game when Haddix died in January 1994.
"He knew what he had in mind when he let the ball loose," Adcock said. "The wind had been blowing in all night and maybe it was a freak because when I came to bat, the flag in center field was still. I was thinking he'd been keeping the ball away from me all night and maybe he'd do it again, and he did and hit it."
In 1963, Adcock moved to the Cleveland Indians and finished his playing career with three seasons with the California Angels. He posted a .277 lifetime batting average.
Adcock managed the Indians in 1967,finishing eighth in the American League with a 75-87 record.
Adcock was born on Oct. 30, 1927, at Coushatta and graduated from Coushatta High School. A short stint on a basketball scholarship to Louisiana State ended when he was drafted by the Cincinnati Reds.
During his offseason, Adcock started breeding thoroughbreds and developed Red River Farms, which he continued running after his retirement.
"he bred thoroughbred race horses and enjoyed his grandchildren," Adams said of her father's life after baseball.
Funeral arrangements were pending.
In addition to Adams, Adcock is survived by his wife, Joan; son Jay Adcock, who runs the horse business his father founded; daughters Jill Kennedy and Jeannie Worsham; sister Mary Ann Brown; and eight grandchildren.
Patriots' owner calls off deal to move team to Connecticut
The Associated Press
BOSTON — In the end, the New England Patriots' decision to back out of their Hartford stadium deal may have come down to timing.
The end of the failed plan to move the team to Hartford, Conn., owner Bob Kraft asked Connecticut officials to extend a Sunday deadline to back out of the deal without penalty.
Connecticut Gov. John Rowland refused the extension, and the $380 million deal was dead within 24 hours.
Negotiations ended with Rowland promising legal action against Kraft and possibly the NFL. Details are emerging about the final round of talks between the governor and the owner.
Kraft flew to Hartford on Thursday for a meeting with Rowland. He asked the governor to extend the deadline, after which Kraft would have been liable for damages of up to $100 million if he backed out of the deal. He wanted another 30 to 60 days, apparently to pinpoint when the new stadium could be completed. The Boston Globe reported.
Kraft had signed a tentative deal with Rowland in November after the state offered him a new stadium on the Hartford waterfront.
But the deal got shaky as it appeared less and less likely that the stadium would be completed by 2002 — the year
insisted upon by Kraft.
In a meeting with consultants on Thursday morning, Kraft was told Connecticut's chances of meeting the 2002 deadline were slim. He and his associates thought another month or two could help in assessing the plan's viability, the Globe reported, citing unidentified sources familiar with the neotiations.
give Massachusetts more time to solidify a competing offer, or give the National Football League and Bay State lawmakers more time to try to kill the deal.
He relected Kraft's request.
Rowland feared the extension could
TAYLOR STATE
Kraft told Connecticut officials he would get them an answer in 24 hours, and the officials were optimistic.
The next afternoon, the announcement was made: The Patriots would not move to Connecticut.
Rowland's aides said the news came as a surprise in Hartford.
"We were 98 percent sure the Patriots were going to go forward," said Rowland spokesman Dean Pagani. "They had presented no rational arguments for pulling out."

Sacramento team hires Pete Rose
The Associated Press
SACRAMENTO, Calif. — Pete Rose, baseball's banned career hits leader, will be back in uniform on a field next week.
The Sacramento Steelheads of the Western League said yesterday they were hiring Rose as a special hitting and infield instructor for spring training. The Steelheads start their first season May 21.
Rose, expected at camp May 10,
agreed to a lifetime ban from organized baseball in August 1989 after an investigation by baseball commissioner A. Bartlett Giamatti, who concluded the then-Cincinnati Reds manager bet on games involving his team, a charge Rose still denies.
The following year, Rose pleaded guilty to two counts of filing false incomes taxes by failing to report income and was sentenced to five months in prison, three months in a halfway house and 1,000 hours of community service.
community service
Rose applied for reinstatement to baseball in September 1997, but commissioner Bud Selig has not ruled on the application. It is unlikely Selig will ever agree to Rose's reinstatement, many baseball officials repeatedly have said.
P
Rose: Was banned from Major League Baseball in 1986.
His ban does not apply to the Steelheads because the Western League is not affiliated with organized baseball — the major leagues and the National Association of Professional Baseball Leagues, which is the governing body for the minors.
"Pete from the beginning has always expressed that he wants to be involved in the Sacramento community," Steelheads owner Bruce Portner said.
Portner also asked Rose to give a motivational speech to players at Sacramento City College.
Rose, 58, retired in 1966 and finished his 24-year career with 4.256 hits. He would have been a near-unanimous choice for the Hall of Fame, but in February 1991 the Hall's board of directors adopted a rule that prevented banned players from appearing on the writers' annual ballot.
New commissioner backs out
Tom McElroy didn't realize all sacrifices
The Associated Press
COLUMBUS, Ohio — Less than three days after he was formally announced as the Mid-American Conference's new commissioner, Tom McElroy backed out of the job because he said he didn't realize what the sacrifices were.
McEllroy, the Big East Conference's senior associate commissioner, notified the head of the MAC search committee on Sunday that he would not accept the position.
"I got caught up in the race for the prize, got the prize and didn't realize what the sacrifices were," McElroy said yesterday. "I learned a lot."
Robert Glidden, who led the search committee and is the president of Ohio University, did not respond to messages yesterday seeking comment.
In a statement issued by the MAC office in Toledo, Glidden said, "While we are obviously disappointed with Tom's decision, we do enjoy the benefit of a very talented and capable pool of candidates."
He was attending meetings in Washington, D.C.
In an interview with The Associated Press on Thursday, McElroy confirmed that he had accepted the MAC position. He said he was looking forward to taking over June 1 as the conference's seventh commissioner.
But he had misgivings later that night after flying from his home in Providence, R.I., to Cleveland, which becomes the MAC's new home on July 1.
"I tossed and turned in bed all night on Thursday," he said. "It's one of those situations where you've got a devil and an angel on either side of the headboard, one saying, 'What are you doing?' and the other saving, 'Go for it!'"
He was introduced at a news conference Friday afternoon, then flew home for a family get-together.
"Saturday was an agonizing day," he said. After church on Sunday, a close friend told him he didn't look good and McElroy told him, "I'm struggling with it a little bit."
BIGEAST
McElroy called Glidden Sunday to talk.
"He said, 'How're you doing?' I said, 'Not good.' And he said, 'What's the matter? That's the way the conversation started,' McEiroy said. "I said, 'The MAC needs the fullest attention of their next commissioner.' He said, 'Are you sure?' I said, 'Yes, pal, I'm sure.'
"I told him it was the most difficult thing I've ever had to do in my life, and he made it easy for me."
McElroy said his decision was based on several personal and family factors, even though his family was happy he was getting his own conference after working for the Big East for 18 years.
His family did not plan to join him for at least nine months. He said he would be missing moments that he would never get back if he were living in Cleveland and separated from his family.
McEllroy said he was prepared for the fallout from his reversal.
"In getting ready to give the MAC the best of me professionally in two weeks of interviews and dialogue with so many people, I didn't catch a breath and say, 'Now, what does it mean personally?' " he said.
"I know I'm going to be criticized. I know I'm going to take some attacks. But you know what? I'm prepared for that. That's today's medicine," he said. "You have to get on with it."
The MAC sponsors 23 championships sports and has members in six states.
Conference members include Akron, Ball State, Bowling Green, Buffalo, Central Michigan, Eastern Michigan, Kent, Marshall, Miami of Ohio, Northern Illinois, Ohio University, Toledo and Western Michigan.
Italian fights storms for sailing record
The Associated Press
CHARLESTON, S.C. — After enduring hurricane-force winds and becalmed seas, Giovanni Soldini is almost there.
The Italian sailor, who made a daring rescue at sea, was closing in on a record finish yesterday in the Around Alone solo yacht race.
Soldini was about 720 miles from Charleston on the last leg of the around-the-world race of 27,000 miles that began in Charleston in September.
Race officials said he could encounter lighter winds by midweek, and he was not expected back in Charleston until Thursday. Still, Soldini's projected time is just under 116 days, about five days faster than the record set by Christophe Auguin in 1991 when the race was known as the BOC Challenge.
A victory by Soldini would be hugely significant as a challenge to French dominance of the sport, race director Mark Schrader said. "What it basically says is the French have been doing this kind of sailing for longer, and they have spent more money on boat design. Now it's evening out."
Frenchman Marc Thiercelin, with the
only other 60-foot boat still in the race,
was about 360 miles behind Soldini but
more than 11 days back in the overall
standings.
In the smaller, 50-foot boat division,
Mike Garside led Frenchman J.P.
Mouligne by about 275 miles with about
1,400 miles left to go to reach Charleston.
But Mouligne, who won the three previous legs, is the apparent winner of the division.
Of the 16 boats that started, nine remain in the race, an attrition rate above the same as previous races, Schrader said.
"It has always been close to 40 percent that don't make it. I am disappointed for the people who were unable to finish. This race, weatherwise, was incredibly difficult," he said.
The race included stopovers in Cape Town, South Africa; Auckland, New Zealand; and Punta del Este, Uruguay.
"There were some extraordinary storms in the south before Cape Horn." Schrader said. "It was uncomfortable coming out of Uruguay this time and slower than last time."
The most dramatic moment was when Soldini rescued Isabelle Autissier from her overturned boat PRB in the frigid
Southern Ocean. Her boat was sailing in 20-knot winds when her automatic pilot made an error, the sailshifted and the boat flipped.
The yacht, which was supposed to right itself never did, and Autissier had only enough time to close the watertight cabin hatch and wait for rescue.
People around the world monitored the race's Internet site for dispatches describing how Soldini sailed 200 miles through 40 mph winds and waves as high as 30 feet.
When he found the overturned yacht, there was no sign of Autissier. But Soldi tinned a hammer at the hull and she quickly emerged from an escape hatch.
Two other sailors also got help from a Boston physician who makes virtual house calls.
Dan Carlin, physician at the World Clinic at the New England Medical Center, told Moulaine the antibiotics to use to treat an infected knee after the sailor took digital photographs of it and sent them via e-mail to the doctor. Carlin earlier guided Russian sailor Viktor Yazykov through surgery to treat an abscess on his arm after Yazykov's elbow swelled with infection.

Olympian appeals ban for drug use
Kansan
The Associated Press
Lennon said the decision last August by a FINA doping panel was patently unsoUND. FINA held Smith-De Bruin responsible for tampering with the out-of-competition urine test taken at her home in Kilkenny, Ireland.
LAUSANNE, Switzerland — Threetime Olympic gold medalist Michelle Smith-De Bruin appealed to an international panel yesterday to overturn her four-year drug ban.
Peter Lennon, Smith-De Bruin's lawyer, told the International Court of Arbitration for Sport, that the swimmer had been denied a reasonable judgment and that FINA, swimming's world governing body, had failed to prove she had tampered with the urine sample.
FINA said the sample was contaminated with large amounts of alcohol, probably whiskey.
Smith-De Bruin's ban includes the Sydney 2000 Olympics and the 2001 World Championships, in effect ending the 28-year-old Irish swimmer's career.
"I am fighting for my reputation and for my right to go to Sydney," Smith-De Bruin said after the ban was handed down.
"For us, this case is a case of tampering," Maurand told the three-arbitrator panel. "Something happened with those samples, and I don't think it can be disputed."
FINA lawyer Jean-Pierre Maurand said it was clear that someone had tampered with the samples before they came under the governing body's control.
Smith-De Bruin had a mediocre record before capturing three gold medals and a bronze at the Atlanta Games, three years after Erik de Bruin became her coach.
Her marriage to de Bruin, the Dutch discus and shot put champion banned for four years after testing positive to excessive testosterone, stirred speculation that her own meteoric rise had been aided by drugs. But she said she had been tested more often than any of her rivals and each time the result was negative.
In test results released in February and carried out on behalf of British shot putter Paul Edwards, chemist David Brown showed the Versapak drug-test containers could be opened and closed without detection by immersion in boiling water.
Edwards, who had been banned for life, had his suspension lifted by UK Athletics, the governing body of British track and field, pending a review of his case.
But UK Athletics said the review concerned inconsistencies in a hearing held several years ago and was not necessarily related to the test results.
Lennon has said he believed the question of the container, dismissed as a theoretical possibility by the FINA doping panel, wouldn't be dismissed in the same way by the CAS.
He added that he didn't think he would have to show why someone would want to tamper with Smith's sample in order to have the ban overturned.
FINA secretary Gunnar Werner argued just the opposite. He said that Smith would need to show a motive for someone else to have tampered with the sample. She maintained that FINA was conspiring to ensure that she did not swim again.

Dodgers deny illegal recruiting charges
The Associated Press
BOSTON — The Los Angeles Doggers denied accusations that they held secret tryouts in Cuba, but two Cuban minor league players say the team scouted them in their homeland, arranged their escapes and then ordered them to lie about it.
First baseman Juan Carlos Diaz, 23, and outfielder Josue Perez, 21, have asked major league baseball to declare them free agents on grounds they were signed illegally and at less than market value. The Boston Globe reported Sunday.
The accusations, if true, violate the league's rules prohibiting scouting in Cuba. They also might violate the U.S. trade embargo with Cuba.
"I understand that nobody should go to Cuba," Ralph Avila,
the Dodgers' senior vice president, told The Globe. "Look, I don't work for the immigration. I don't work for the State Department. I don't work for the police department. If someone went to Cuba, it's not my business."
Pablo Peguero, the scout accused of arranging the defences, said he hadn't been to Cuba in more than 10 years.
Diaz said Peguero approached him in 1995 after a game in Havana and offered a tryout for the next morning. Afterward, Diaz said, Peguero told him the Doggers wanted to bring him to the Dominican Republic. Two months later, Peguero returned with a woman he said was his cousin.
Diaz received a visa after the woman told authorities his family helped her find a Cuban doctor for surgery she needed. She said she had invited Diaz to the
"Look, I don't work for the immigration. I don't work for the State Department. I don't work for the police department. If someone went to Cuba, it's not my business."
Ralph Avila, Dodgers senior vice president
Dominican Republic to show her gratitude and pay all his expenses, Diaz said.
Diaz went to the Dodgers' training academy at Campo Las Palmas outside Santo Domingo, where Vaila signed him to a contract with a $65.00 bonus. Last year, Diaz hit a combined 30 homers at Single A and Double A.
"I don't know if they paid of people or what, but I immediately got my provisional residence papers, which enabled me to sign," Diaz said, adding
Peguero and Avila told him to lie if asked how he escaped to the Dominican Republic.
Perez, who plays for the Dodgers' Single A team in Vero Beach, Fla., told a similar story in a separate interview. He said after a tryout with Peguero in 1996, he was escorted to the Dominican Republic by a young woman he never saw again. Perez was signed to a contract with a $40,000 bonus and also was told to lie about his escape, he said.
The players said they came forward after realizing their signing bonuses were too low.
The commissioner's office has said teams that broke rules against scouting in Cuba faced fines, suspensions or loss of draft choices.
In the only documented case of scouting in Cuba, Miami-based agent Juan Ignacio Hernandez was arrested for trying to persuade players to defect. Hernandez was sentenced to 15 years in prison by Cuban authorities.
If the Dodgers did recruit players from Cuba, they could be in violation of provisions of the Trading with the Enemy Act and regulations administered by the Treasury Department, said John Kavulich, president of the U.S.-Cuba Trade and Economic Council in New York.
Individuals can be fined up to $55,000 for violations, and corporations up to $250,000.
'Magic mud' still takes the shine out of baseball
The Associated Press
SEMINOLE, Fla. — To his neighbors, Burns Bintliff is a retired New Jersey Turnpike maintenance contractor. To major league players, who may not even know his name, he's the supplier of a silky, chocolate pudding-like product known as "magic mud."
Umpires at every major and minor league ballpark in America and Canada use the mud, called Lena Blackburne Rubbing Mud, to take the shine off baseballs before game.
Shiny balls, straight out of their plastic wrapping, are no good, professionals said. Pitchers can't get a good grip and hitters are sometimes blinded when the sun or indoor lighting hits the too-
white surface.
Umpires said a little dab of Bintliff's mud removes the shine off balls without scratching or denting the surface.
Bintliff's product was so superior to other muds, professionals said, that in 1969 it was permanently enshrined in the Hall of Fame at Cooperstown.
"There's something about this mud," retired major league ampire Bill Kinnanon told the St. Petersburg Times for its Monday edition. "I don't know how to explain it. It takes the shine off without getting the ball excessively dark."
According to Bintliff's wife, Doris, Russell Aubrey "Lena" Blackburne was a major league infielder with the Chicago White Sox and, later, a coach for the then Philadelphia Athletics.
At the time, the mid-1930s, teams used a variety of substances to rub baseballs
— tobacco juice, shoe polish, dirt from the baseball field or a combination — but nothing they tried gave the balls the right look or feel.
Blackburne searched for the perfect rubbing compound until one day, according to legend, he found mud he liked in a secret body of water, probably some place in the northeast.
By 1938, he was supplying the mud to all American League teams. Because he was a die-hard American League fan, he refused to sell the mud to National League teams until the mid-1950s. Since then, every major and minor league team has used the product. One container, a little more than 16 ounces, will
"There's a can of it in every umpire's dressing room," said Kinnamon "Before each game, we'd rub up about five dozen balls, more for a doubleheader."
usually last a season.
Before he died, Haas shared the secrets of the mud with Bintliff, including its source. Today, the mud remains a mystery and only a few family members know where it comes from.
Blackbure died in 1968 and left the mud business to his boyhood friend, John Haas, who was the father of Bintliff's first wife.
Buddy Bates, equipment manager for the St. Louis Cardinals, said there was a tub of Bintliff's mud in his locker room. "We get it automatically every spring." Bates said. "It costs $100."
L.A. Dodgers get highest luxury tax projection for year
NEW YORK — Major league teams finally received their estimated luxury tax bills yesterday, and the Los Angeles Dodgers had the highest projected payment at $5.15 million.
The Associated Press
The New York Yankees were No. 2 at $4.25 million,
followed by Baltimore at $4.07 million, Atlanta at
$772,000 and the New York Mets at $525,000.
Projections were based on opening-day payrolls and already have changed significantly.
Atlanta cut its bill to zero that same day by trading Mark Wohlers to Cincinnati for John Hudek, a deal that pushed the Boston Red Sox into tax territory.
The luxury tax, agreed to in the settlement of the 1994-95 strike and scheduled to go out of existence after this season, was designed to slow spending by the high-revenue teams but has had only a slight effect, prompting renewed calls for a salary cap by some low- and mid-revenue teams.
Los Angeles cut its tax by about $1.84 million with the April 16 trade of Dave Mlicki and Mel Rojas to Détroit for three minor league pitchers.
Tax is assessed on the teams with the five highest payrolls at a rate of 34 percent on the amount above the midpoint between payrolls Nos.5 and 6.
Based on opening-day rosters, the threshold for the tax taking effect was $81,898,568, up more than $11 million from last year's threshold of $70,501,185. Owners originally hoped the threshold would be $55 million last year and $58.9 million this season.
"The reason why we didn't appeal was I wanted to get this behind us," Moehler said before
Last year, Baltimore had the highest tax ($3,138,621), followed by Boston ($2,184,734), the Yankees ($684,390), Atlanta ($495,625) and Los Angeles ($49,593).
In 1997, the first year of the tax, the Yankees made the highest payment ($4,431,180), followed by Baltimore ($4,030,228), Cleveland ($2,065,496), Atlanta ($1,299,957) and Florida ($139,607).
"It is tough for me because I'm a competitor, and I want to pitch," Moehler said. "I want to be out
It is estimated teams will pay $14.8 million in tax this year, up from $6,293,963 last year and $11,966,468 in 1997.
ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — Brian Moehler isn't even bothering to appeal his automatic 10-day suspension for scuffing baseballs.
Unlike conventional payrolls, luxury tax figures are computed by using the average annual value of contracts instead of salaries for single seasons. They also include the entire 40-man roster plus $5,737,269 per team in benefits paid to players, up 2.9 percent from $5,576,415 last year.
The Associated Press
American League suspends Tiger pitcher for sanding baseballs
The Detroit Tigers pitcher was notified of the penalty by American League president Gene Budig yesterday, two days after Moehler was ejected from a game against Tampa Bay by ampire Larry Barnett, who said the right-hander doctored baseballs with sandpaper.
The actual luxury tax will be based on final payrolls computed in December, with the payments due by Jan. 31. The money goes to baseball's industry growth fund.
the Tigers' game last night at Tampa Bay. "Whether we appeal or don't appeal, people have their own opinions. It comes down to me wanting to pitch and soon. I think that's the best thing to do and just move on."
Moehler, 27, said it wasn't sandpaper, merely dirt but said he didn't protest his ejection during a 4-3 loss because it's not his nature "to argue until I'm blue in the face." True to his nature, he notified the players' association not to appeal Budig's decision.
there pitching. The toughest part is, you don't feel like you're contributing to the team. I just have to keep my head up and go out there and get my work done."
Barnett, the plate umpire, said he found a small piece of sandpaper attached to the pitcher's left thumb after the Devil Rays complained he appeared to be scuffing the ball.
Moehler yielded three runs on four hits in the first two innings, then allowed just one hit during a four-inning stretch. Tampa Bay players said the velocity and movement of Moehler's pitches changed dramatically.
day. "But I'm going to stand up for what these players need, and that's a level playing field."
Detroit manager Larry Parrish countered that
"I don't derive any satisfaction out of getting somebody thrown out of the game," Devil Rays manager Larry Rothschild said Sun
R
scuffing was part of baseball, characterizing Tampa Bay's complaints — as well as the decision to ask Barnett to check Moehler — as "bootleg."
"There's not a pitching staff in baseball that doesn't have a guy who defaces the ball. If the umpires want to check things like that, I think half to three-quarters of the league would be suspended, including some Tampa Bay Devil Rays." Parrish said.
Moehler is prepared for the attention he will likely receive from fans around the American League.
"Every city I go into this year, I'm going to hear something from somebody," Moehler said. "It's going to happen. I'm prepared for it. You have leather skin, and you keep moving on."
Section 3.02 of the Official Baseball Rules calls for the 10-day suspension.
In 1987, Philadelphia Phillies pitcher Kevin Gross was suspended for 10 days by NL president A. Bartlett Giamatti after Gross was caught with sandpaper in his glove. That same year, AL president Bobby Brown suspended Minnesota pitcher Joe Niekro for 10 days for carrying an emery board and sandpaper in his back pocket
A 14-game winner in 1998, Moehler is 3-3 with a 4.23 ERA this season. The Devil Rays scored the winning run on a sacrifice fly, two batters after he was ejected Saturday night.

Five people were killed in Wichita and Haysville, where homes in the Lakeshore trailer park were hurled into a nearby lake by winds of more than 200mph.

Storm sparks student concern
Tornado aftermath leaves many worried
By T.J. Johnson tjohnson@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
(USPS 650-640)
Daybreak yesterday offered the first chance for officials and residents in tornado-ravaged areas of Kansas and Oklahoma to assess the damage caused by the storms. It also was a chance for KU students from the affected communities to contact their families.
Heath Cooper, Wichita junior, said he attended high school and had many family members in the hard-hit community of Haysville. He said he called home and learned that his family was safe but that the town was heavily damaged.
"I think everything down there is pretty torn up," Cooper said. "My grandma and my cousin both lost their houses in it, and a place I used to work at was pretty torn up."
"I'm just thankful that everybody is OK." he said.
Cooper said his grandmother was baby-sitting one of her grandchildren when the tornado hit Haysville. She took the child into her bathroom to wait out the storm. After the storm passed, the bathroom was the only part of her house left standing, Cooper said.
Jessica Schnebel, Oklahoma City freshman, said she tried to contact her family after she heard about the storms but was unable to get a telephone call through to them. When she did contact her family, she learned that they had all made it through the tornado that devastated parts of the city.
She said that her family lived north of
the area hit by the storm and that their house was not damaged, but her father, a physician, was called in to help people who had been injured in the storm.
The damage was caused by a series of storms that stretched from southern Oklahoma to central Kansas Monday night. Several tornadoes were spawned, causing extensive damage in areas around Oklahoma City and Wichita.
About 45 people are thought to have been killed in the storms, the majority in Oklahoma City. In addition, an estimated 2,400 homes and businesses were destroyed in Oklahoma and Kansas.
The severe weather continued into the afternoon yesterday, with sporadic
reports of tornado touchdowns near Buhler, McPherson and Manhattan, according to the National Weather Service.
Donna Tucker, associate professor of atmospheric science, said outbreaks such as the one on Monday were not uncommon in the Midwest.
"In this part of the country, tornados are more common than they are in any other part of the world." Tucker said.
She said it was too early to tell just how severe the outbreak had been because the damage reports from areas hit by the tornados had not been studied, making it difficult to gauge their strength.

Storm death toll increases to 43
The Associated Press
OKLAHOMA CITY — The death toll stood at 43 yesterday after fierce tornadoes destroyed entire neighborhoods in Oklahoma and Kansas. One monstrous twister chewed across miles of Tornado Alley for four hours Monday.
The combined Oklahoma-Kansas death toll makes this the deadliest tornado outbreak since 42 people were killed last year in Florida.
The largest twister formed about 45 miles southwest of Oklahoma City and cut a path at least a half-mile wide. Although many tornadoes are short-lived, this one stayed on the ground for about four hours, said Wayne Ruff, a National Weather Service meteorologist. Local TV stations followed it with live broadcasts.
The damage "looks like the Murrah Building, but instead of nine stories tall, it's spread out over a large area," said Jon Hansen, Oklahoma City assistant fire chief, referring to the federal building bombing in 1985.
More severe thunderstorms with scattered twisters rippled across the Plains yesterday morning, and tornado warnings were posted for parts of central Oklahoma. A tornado watch covered much of the rest of the state.
In Washington, President Bill Clinton declared 11 Oklahoma counties and one in Kansas federal disaster areas.
About 150 miles north of Oklahoma City, a tornado spawned by the same storm system tossed mobile homes like tins, damaged houses and killed at least five people in Wichita and its suburb Haysville. Hospitals treated more than 100 people.
"It is worse than what you can see," said Bob Thompson, a fire battalion chief in Sedgwick County. He said that more deaths were possible, and that dogs were used yesterday to search through the rubble.
Chad Harris was with seven people inside his mobile home in Haysville when it was flipped and demolished. Two of his companions were critically injured.
In Oklahoma, the dead included 11 people in Bridge Creek, about 30 miles southwest of Oklahoma City, said Ben Frizzell, spokesman for the state Office of Emergency Management.
"I have no trailer," Harris said. "We all rolled in it. It was the worst experience in my life."
Others died in Oklahoma City and nearby Oklahoma towns Midwest City, Moore, Del City and Norman.

Senators not expecting a lot from tonight's board re-vote
By Nadia Mustafa

Kansan staff writer
Although the elections commission's hearing board will publicly re-vote tonight on Student Senate campaign complaints, most senators do not expect changed results.
On April 19, the board ruled on 19 complaints, including allegations against the YUO coalition, Delta Force and the
recreation task force. But the commission scheduled an open re-voting session this week based on advice from the Douglas County counsel, Wint Winder, who determined that the board's secret voting violated the Kansas Open Meetings Act.
Jennifer Watkins, executive commissioner, said she did not expect the board's decisions to change because the act did not require the board to hear new evidence or to conduct new deliberations. She said the commission had been unaware that it was violating the act when the board had conducted closed hearings upon advice from the University general counsel.
The board will vote at 7 p.m. at the Oread Room in the Kansas Union.
"I'm glad we got it figured out," Watkins said. "It will be corrected in the future. We're going to go ahead and vote so that it will be public record. This is more a public announcement than anything else."

JCCC leeching KU students, credit hours

Ryan Werner recognized a few familiar faces from around the campus on his first day of Spanish class this semester.
On Thursday evenings from 6 to 9 p.m. Werner, Spearville sophomore, and 21 other University of Kansas students meet to take a fourth-level Spanish class.
Special to the Kansan
But something's different. These students don't meet for class at Wescoe or Fraser Hall. They are taking a class at Johnson County Community College in Overland Park. Werner said that out of the 23 students enrolled in the class, 22 were KU students who will transfer the completed community college credit hours back to the University.
Patricia Long, dean of students at JCCC, said 1,241 students from Douglas County took classes in Johnson County last fall. About half of those were enrolled for one to six credit
"The teacher asked us on the first day where we were from, and we almost all said KU. It was really kind of funny at all." Werner said.
hours.
About 600 KU students take classes at community colleges each semester.
"Many of those are probably KU students." Long said.
The cost per undergraduate credit hour at the University of Kansas is $68.05. Long's estimate means that if these 600 or so KU students averaged three credit hours each at JCCC, the
University would have lost about $122,490 last semester,and $244,980 last year.
Associate Provost Lindy Eakin said that such calculations weren't so simple.
"If we were to have a significant increase in students leaving KU, then there would be some impact on revenue," Eakin said. "But there is not a direct one-to-one relationship on cost."
However, he said if the class the student wished to take was full and the University would have had to create another class and find another teacher for the student to be able to take it, the University did not lose sig
Eakin said the financial calculation was similar to selling basketball tickets at Allen Fieldhouse. If there are seats in the fieldhouse that no one buys a ticket for, and the basketball game still takes place, revenue has been lost.
"If there is space in the class, and we could have put that student in the class and collected tuition, we have lost the revenue," he said.

Visitors not excused from parking permit troubles

Friends and family visiting students at the University of Kansas don't have free rein to park at the Visitor Center parking lot despite the sign at the entrance that reads "visitor parking."
Like elsewhere on campus, a pass is required to park at the Visitor Center.
Tracie Bell, Paola freshman, who lives in Hashinger Hall, found out the hard way when her boyfriend visited from Overland Park. He parked at the Visitor Center and got a ticket.
the sign says 'visitor parking.' Bell said. "There's nothing that says you need a pass."
The parking department's rules state that visitors must park at meters or in designated visitor parking areas.

tioned said the Visitor Center was designed primarily for prospective students and their families. A pass is required from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. and can be obtained from the Visitor Center. After 5 p.m., the lot is open.
"A kid may come to visit another kid in Templin," Frederick said. "Technically, he's a visitor, but he's not going through our program."

the lot is for Visitor Center parking only and that a pass is required. Frederick said.
Hultine said she also was working with Frederick to crack down on students who park at the Visitor Center lot and try to move their cars in the morning.
Faculty and staff are not exempt from ticketing either
"We had a mandate from the chancellor that there were to be 100 spaces for visitors only," she said. "A staff or student permit wouldn't qualify."

Former temp arrested in embezzlement case
A Milwaukee woman who once worked in the Controller's Office was arrested yesterday in connection with the embezzlement of $634.88 between Jan. 27 and 28 from the Office of the Controller, 20 Carruth-O'Leary Hall, said Maj. Chris J. Keary, assistant director of the Public Safety Office.
According to court records, a warrant for the woman's arrest was issued April 16.
After being contacted by the KU Public Safety Office, she chose to return to Lawrence to face the charges against her, Keary said.
He said there were no other suspects in the embezzlement.
The woman was not an official employee of the University but was hired for a couple of days from a temporary agency, said Dana Goble, associate director of the Office of the Comptroller.
Although the woman was supervised by other staff members, Goble said the former temporary employee came into contact with some deposits. These deposits came from other departments in the form of both cash and checks. The cash portion of the deposits was discovered missing when the accounts were balanced at the end of the day, Goble said.
Man seen masturbating outside two sororities
The woman will make her first appearance in court at 3 p.m. today in Douglas County District Court, 111 E. 11th St.
A naked man was reportedly seen masturbating outside two different sorority houses between 1:15 and 1:40 a.m. yesterday, said Lawrence Police Sgt. George Wheeler.
He said police did not know whether the two groups of women saw the same man
two groups or women saw the same man. A KU student told police she was in her car at 1:15 a.m. yesterday in the Alpha Gamma Delta parking lot, 2005 Stewart Ave., when she noticed a man without clothes masturbating while crouched near some trash cans. The suspect was described as a Caucasian male in his mid-to late-30s, with short hair, of medium height and with a heavy build.
Twenty-five minutes later, a Lawrence police officer was dispatched to the Alpha Delta Pi sorority house, 1600 Oxford Road, on a report that a naked man had been seen in the parking lot. Three KU students told police they had seen the man on the edge of the parking lot masturbating. The students described the suspect as a white male, 5-foot-9 tall, with a muscular build and short brown hair.
"The reports may be related," Wheeler said.
The suspect, who police were unable to find, was last seen walking north toward Cambridge Road.
University employee hit by car on Naismith Drive
A KU employee was walking on a crosswalk at 11:35 p.m. Monday at Inving Hill Road and Naismith Drive when he was struck by a car, said Lt. Schuyler Bailey of the KU Public Safety Office.
The employee rolled over the hood of the car and landed on the ground. The driver of the car stopped to ask if he was OK but drove off after the employee said that he was, Bailey said
The car, which was last seen heading south toward Sunnyside Avenue, was described as a black two door Honda with a personalized license plate that said "KACHUNG." A search of the tag number did not result in a match. Bailey said.
The employee refused medical attention
KU student reports rape on Melrose Lane
A 20-year-old KU student reported to police that she was raped between 11 and 11:30 p.m. in the 2400 block of Melrose Lane, said Lawrence Police Sett. George Wheeler.
The student said she was walking on the street when someone struck her from behind and knocked her to the ground. She reported that was when she was raped, Wheeler said.
The student called police from the Lawrence Memorial Hospital emergency room to report the crime. A rape examination was performed by hospital staff to gather evidence in case an arrest was made.
No further injuries were reported. Wheeler said.
The student described the suspect as a Caucasian male of medium to small build in his mid-20s. Police were not able to find the man.
Police will receive the examination results in about two weeks, Wheeler said.

Senate pushes aside ground troop option
WASHINGTON — After White House lobbying, the Senate pushed aside a measure yesterday to authorize a ground war if necessary against Josglosia, a vote that prompted sponsor John McCain to accuse President Clinton of being prepared to lose a war rather than take political risks.
The Arizona Republican's outburst, the strongest criticism yet on the Senate floor of Clinton's military leadership in the Kosovo crisis, drew expressions of outrage from Democrats and even words of concern from some Republicans.
The Senate voted 78-22 to table, or set aside, a move by McCain and six other senators to give the president the authority to use all necessary force to win in Yugoslavia. Sponsors said that clearly included the option of American ground troops.
Senate Majority Leader Trent Lott, R-Miss., told the Senate that the legislation was "the wrong language, and it's at the wrong time."
Senate Minority Leader Tom Daschle, D-S.D., Joined Lott in making the motion to table McCain's proposal.
Voting to table the measure were 32 Democrats and 46 Republicans. Voting to keep on debating it were 1.3 Democrats and nine Republicans, including McCain.
OPEC production cuts likely to raise gas prices
CHICAGO — World oil producers who have traditionally offered only lip service about cutting output are putting their words into action — and that probably means more price increases at the gasoline pump for Americans.
An eagerly awaited report from the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries this week or next is expected to show that OPEC members are abiding by their recent pledge to trim production. Analysts said yesterday that could help push crude oil above $20 a barrel, nearly twice what it was in December.
Gasoline now averages about $1.23 a gallon around the country, up from 99 cents in February.

A Lawrence man was arrested on suspicion of operating under the influence at 4:09 p.m. Monday, the KU Public Safety Office said. Police had received an earlier report that the man had harassed a group of females on campus. The man was stopped because his truck matched the description the women had given of the vehicle. The officer observed that the man was intoxicated. He was asked to perform several sobriety tests, which he failed, police said.

Oklahoma sifts through twister rubble
Continued from page 1A
"We're really just getting started on the foot-by-foot search," said Clayton Taylor, a Red Cross spokesman, in Oklahoma City.
The number of houses destroyed in the Oklahoma City area approached 2,000. Cars were tossed about and crushed. Natural gas spewed from ruptured lines. Utility poles were splintered into kindling.
"We have whole communities that simply aren't there anymore," Oklahoma Gov. Frank Keating told NBC's Today show. "It certainly looks like a huge battle has taken place."
Hospitals in the Oklahoma City metropolitan area treated 563 people for tornado-related injuries, Police Capt. Charles Allen said.
"I've been through the war in Germany. I've had bombs fall all around me. Now I've been in a tornado," said Anna Knerr, 73, yesterday at a shelter in Midwest City, Okla.
Knerr said she and her husband hid in a closet before the storm hit.
She and her husband crawled to safety
"Then there just was this creepy feeling," she said. "The next thing I know I was covered. The roof just collapsed on me."
She and her husband crawled to safety. The National Severe Storms Laboratory in Norman, Okla., said the tornado may have been a mile wide at times. The weather service's David Andra predicted the twister would be categorized as at least an F4, the second-strongest tornado classification, defined as a storm with winds at 207 to 260 mph.
It will be later before the staff at the laboratory is able to determine just how strong the tornado was, researcher Harold Brooks said.
The system also spawned twisters in north and west Texas but did no major damage.
The main tornado in Oklahoma formed near Chickasha, about 45 miles southwest of the capital. It plowed across the flat countryside, toppling trees, power lines, buildings and cars until it ripped into south Oklahoma City.
The National Weather Service issued its first tornado warning at 4:49 p.m. Monday as twisters started over rural parts of the state. Television stations started live coverage a few minutes later, following the storms with cameras and radar for about two hours before the tornados slammed into the Oklahoma City area.
Last year, tornados killed 42 people around Kissimmee, Fla., Feb. 22-23, and 34 people died in the area of Birmingham, Ala., April 8.

KU joins anti-sweatshop campaign
By Nadie Mustafa
nmustafa@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
The University of Kansas has joined about 20 universities around the nation in a formal effort aimed at preventing sweatshop labor in the manufacturing of collegiate products.
Last week, Chancellor Robert Hemenway signed the American Council on Education's anti-sweat-shop code, which requires the University to enter into trademark licensing agreements with caution, avoiding companies that tolerate unfair labor practices in the manufacturing of products such as collegiate apparel, gift items and athletic uniforms.
"It's an important issue and one that is fairly easy to understand," Hemenway said. "Everyone wants to make sure they're not associated with apparel and shoe manufacturers in circumstances that would be detrimental to workers working in these factories."
The KU Athletic Corporation has an exclusive contract with Nike, which manufactures KU athletic teams' apparel. The University also
has collegiate licensing contracts with hundreds of other companies, which must comply with the code.
The University received $780,000 in revenues from trademark licensing last year, which was distributed to scholarship funds
Hemenway: Signed anti-sweatshop resolution.
The code calls for regular inspections of factories and annual certification of companies' protection of workers' rights. Companies must provide safe and sanitary working conditions and allow freedom of association and collective bargaining. Companies
must not use child labor or require workers to work more than 48 hours a week or 12 hours a day.
D脱ire Backs, former off campus student senator and co-sponsor of the Student Senate resolution that requested that the administration join the anti-sweatshop effort, said she was ecstatic that Heinemway had signed the code. She said she had incorrectly thought it would be difficult to convince the administration.
Kyle Browning, president of the KU chapter of Amnesty International, also said he was surprised that students had not needed to put substantial pressure on the administration.
"I think it's awesome," he said, "expected it to be much tougher. This is really a credit to KU."
Browning said he would try to convince the administration to work toward strengthening the code to require that companies provide a list of all factory sites and pay their workers living wages.
In the past, Nike has been accused of tolerating unfair labor practices in its Asian factories.
Browning said Nike recently had tried to improve working conditions but that much progress still was necessary.
Backs said she hoped Hemenway's action would put pressure on Nike.
Pat Warren, assistant athletics director, said the code would not affect the University's contract with Nike.
"They are certainly on the leading edge of trying to improve labor practices," he said. "You can't find products made under any better conditions."
"The more and more schools that sign on, the heavier the message is for Nike that they cannot keep getting away with it," Backs said. "But it does not stop once a piece of paper is signed."
Nike's director of global issues management, Vada Manager, said Nike complied with the code and that the company had some of the best manufacturing facilities in the industry. He said Nike had agreed to release information about its factories.

Study measures allergies to piercings
Piercings have become ubiquitous in popular modern culture. From tongue piercings to belly buttons and beyond, any body part is fair game for piercing.
By T. L. Johnson
By T.J. Johnson
tjohnson@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Some risks remain with the practice, however, from the chance of infection or allergic reaction to the social stigma sometimes associated with body art.
Allison Ehrlich, a dermatology resident at the University of Kansas Medical Center, is studying the effect of body piercings on the development of allergies to metal.
For her study, "Metal Allergies — The Role of Body Piercing," Ehrlich observed about 20 students last week at Watkins Memorial Health Center. For the test, students were paid $20 to wear a patch on their upper arm for one week and come back for observations. As part of the bargain, participants also had to agree to keep the patch dry for one week.
Allergic reactions to gold, nickel, palladium and cobalt were tested, according to Ehrlich.

She said that some of the participants had experienced reactions to the tests but that she needed to test more people to evaluate her data and see whether people with single or multiple body piercings were more likely to develop metal allergies.
"Basically, I'm looking to see if there is an increase in metal allergy in people who have metal body piercings versus people who don't." Ehrlich said.
Metal allergies are not just confined to the area that is pierced or touching metal,
Ehrlich said. The symptoms also can be caused by simply touching metal. Objects such as belt buckles and shoelace eyelets can snark a reaction, she said.
Beyond the risks of metal allergies, Ehrlich said people who get piercings must make sure they are being pierced with sterile instruments to reduce the risk of infections or disease. She said infections such as hepatitis can be spread through unsanitary piercing techniques.
Cody Walters, Onaga sophomore, said his tongue became infected after he had it pierced earlier this semester.
"The first week or week and a half after I got it, my tongue swelled up pretty bad, and it was hard to eat." Walters said.
He said that after taking antibiotics and taking care of the piercing, his infection cleared up.
Ehrlich said her study would continue until she met a goal of about 150 participants. So far, she has had about 60 people participate. She said she would consider returning to Watkins for the study but only if a group of about 20 students expressed interest in participating. She can be reached at the Med Center at (913) 588-6028.

Students deserve right to attend elections commission's hearings
The Kansas Open Meetings and Records Act insures public access to meetings for obvious reasons. Open meetings keep leaders accountable and are vital to democratic government.
Student-financed University of Kansas governing bodies should uphold the laws of the state of Kansas and further the democratic process at the University.
The elections commission closed an April 19 complaint hearing to students. J.D. Jenkins, holdover senator; Ann Premer, The University Daily Kansan editor; and Nadia Mustafa, Student Senate reporter for the Kansan, filed complaints to the state attorney general decrying the commission's behavior.
These three students should be commended for their interest in keeping

such meetings open. Similarly, the elections commission is correct in choosing to hold another hearing at 7 p.m. tonight at the Oread Room in the Kansas Union.
The commission's hearing board held the closed meeting on April 19 to rule on Student Senate election complaints.
The commission, under the advice of KU general counsel, said that it falls under an exception as a quasi-judicial body. Quasi-judicial suggests that the main function of the board is to rule on matters involving the conduct of individuals.
Although the conduct of individuals was pertinent to the commission's hearings, the individuals' actions occurred during a campus election. The scope of the conflict was extended to the entire student body and was therefore a political, not merely a judicial, issue.
Depending on interpretation, open records law may have allowed the elections commission to deliberate privately, but the actual voting was unquestionably a public matter.
Students finance Student Senate, inevitably giving students the right to attend a meeting in which the discussion and outcome are of public concern.
The elections commission made the right decision in scheduling a new hearing for the Student Senate complaints.

Early film star deserves recognition
Movie buffs and filmgoers lost three of their own this spring. The deaths of critic Gene Siskel and filmmaker Stanley Kubrick were treated with the appropriate dignity. Actor Charles "Buddy" Rogers, who died last month at 94, caused nary a ripple in the public's consciousness. Even The University Daily Kansan neglected to cover his death.
Rogers is best known for movies from the pre-World War II era, including the first Best Picture winner, Wings, in 1927
But Rogers was a native Kansan.
Born in Olathe on Aug. 13, 1904, he attended the University of Kansas before being plucked away by Hollywood in the 1920s.
As sound was introduced to film,
Late Jayhawk's contribution to University of Kansas and film should be remembered.
Rogers made a name for himself in early musicals. In the 1930s, he gradually retreated from film to focus on his big band group, the California Cavaliers. In 1986, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences awarded him the Jean Hersholt Humanitarian Award during its yearly Oscar telecast.
John Tibbett, assistant professor of film, interviewed Rogers various times throughout the years, even visiting the actor at his Beverly Hills, Calif., home.
league of icons such as Clark Gable or Cary Grant, he still had a larger-than-life image, Tibbetts said. He kept in shape, had style and never lost an opportunity to speak about his beloved wife, the late actress Mary Pickford.
And once in Hollywood, Rogers never forget his Kansas roots.
The University's film department became a frequent beneficiary of Rogers' wealth for almost four decades as he contributed money for awards, Tibbetts said. He also returned to the University in the late 1980s to screen his classic films for KU students.
Although Rogers had not been in the
The passing of favorite stars and performers from Hollywood's golden era usually is met with emotions of sadness and nostalgia. Charles "Buddy" Rogers' death warrants the same.

Perspective
Final message requests a world of compassion
I write my last article for The University Daily Kansan with mixed feelings. I am leaving the University of Kansas.
If you have general questions or comments,
e-mail the page staff (opinion@kansan.com)
or call 864-4924.
I started my freshman year not knowing
what to do. Because I had accumulated much practical experience with languages before coming to the University, I decided to study languages formally. After reading in the Undergraduate Catalog that if students felt that the established programs did not meet their needs, they could petition for a special major. I petitioned for a major that I called "Romance Languages," combining French, Italian, Spanish and Portuguese.
Donato
Fhunsu
oinion@kansan.com
I still remember the answer I received from the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences undergraduate office: "The departments said that the major you requested is impossible. They argue that the purpose of their programs is to give students a minimum proficiency in the language, and there is no way they can reduce this requirement to meet your needs. They suggest that you major in comparative literature."
I was then living in Perry, just 20 minutes from the University. Nobody even bothered to invite me to an interview. Maybe it was assumed that I was just one of those "regular" students for whom the many majors are designed, and my petition was utopian.
But my utopian adventure did not end there. Once on campus, I discovered that there were three things I really loved doing: studying, writing and teaching.
The undergraduate classes I was taking were too elementary for me. I had read in the KU Graduate School Catalog that students could petition to go to graduate school without a bachelor's degree if they could make a good case. So, I built my case and petitioned for admission to the graduate program in Spanish and Portuguese.
The answer I received essentially said: "You have not even completed a B.A., and you intend to enter graduate studies? What do you think?" I simply thought I could prove myself if given a chance. But traditions, academic or otherwise, die hard. So I opted for academic exploration.
Then, I tackled my second area: writing. Despite my lousy English, the Kansan accepted me as a staff columnist. This was during the Gulf War when the country was in turmoil, and The University Daily Kansan's Opinion Page was the place to be. After I started writing, Anita Herzfeld, my linguistics professor, suggested that I petition to teach Spanish or French.
For Spanish, I was told, "An undergraduate? Ni modo." For French, David Dinneen, French GTA coordinator, gave me a chance, but the
ride was rough. The very first day I was hired by the department, I almost was arrested in Strong Hall, under the suspicion that I must have falsified the teaching contract.
During my adventure here, I also have experienced much ignorance and racism, covert and overt, from administrators, faculty, staff and students. Some of them treated me as if I were stupid, dirty and plain weird. I am none of these. I simply have a lot faith in myself, in others, in the world and in life. That is why, despite all, I harbor no resentment in my heart, either toward them or toward the University.
At one point, I almost had a nervous breakdown, and many people with whom I discussed these experiences suggested that I leave the University immediately — during my first years — and go to a more congenial university. But I felt that I had a mission to accomplish, so I stayed. Now, I feel that I have accomplished my mission, and I am leaving.
I would like to thank Lawrence, which has become my adopted hometown. I thank the administration. I have met wonderful people. I thank all my professors. You have helped me grow, and I hope that I have contributed to your joy of teaching. I apologize for the many times I disappointed you.
I thank all the staff, secretaries and student helpers. The small things you did made a big difference. I thank the Kansan, all my editors and fellow writers. It was a privilege robbing minds with you. We have matured a lot since the old days when, for instance, I could not write columns about religion, with the University of Kansas being a "secular" university.
David Dinneen, a.k.a. DAD, deserves a special mention. He has taught me how to teach and, like an understanding father, has tolerated my utopian academic explorer's life.
I thank the departments in which I did most of my academic explorations: French and Italian, Spanish and Portuguese, linguistics, English, African and African-American studies, religious studies, philosophy, political science, psychology and journalism. My mind is grateful. I thank the KU Kuk Sool Won and the KU LeaderShape Institute for judging me worthy of their membership
Last, but not least, I thank my fellow students. Your company on the Path of Knowledge, Understanding and Wisdom has been a great service. Thank you all for talking, listening, writing, and reading my articles and sharing your lives with me. I hope I have enriched your lives. I know you have enriched mine.
Finally, I go in peace and leave you in peace. While I am gone, I hope you all will continue in the spirit of peace because our separation, for further preparation, is only temporary. We will meet again when we become the leaders of the world in the 21st century. And we want a world of peace, justice, compassion and beauty. Thank you very much.

Strong community sense needed to stop violence
I was not surprised recently when students in a Colorado high school were killed by two fellow classmates. I was saddened, of course, but not surprised. Looking at the alienation in our society, it wasn't anything one couldn't see coming.
Our society is built on the foundation of classical liberalism — of the protection of an individual's life, liberty and property. Life, liberty and property sound good, right? The problem with this is, by itself, it is an empty and nearly meaningless account of human existence. It provides no satisfying guide for human interaction, no explanation

of the world and no explanation of where we fit into it. It is a cold and materialistic dictum.
It is safe to say, I believe, that the perpetrators of the Colorado shooting did what they did because of alienation. They were outsiders, forced to society's fringes to look for some feeling of acceptance. How could they have committed those crimes upon a people they felt a part of?
The philosophical founders of our society, it should be noted, did not intend for their building blocks to exist by themselves. They lived in a world where the church was so strong that it could control every aspect of people's lives. Religion not only provided a backdrop for their vision of society, but communities were stronger and more involved as well. Individuals had a place in society, and they knew what it was.
That said, problems arose in this version of society from the outset. Even with religion and community adding to classical liberalism, people such as sociologist Emile Durkheim reported that people were becoming alienated from one another. His book "Suicide" chronicles the fact that, as Europe moved into a classical liberal mode, suicide rates went up. The individual nature of liberalism had caused people to lose the feeling of being connected to society.
When we add this knowledge to knowledge of our current society, the fact that people feel alienated should not come as a surprise. Various societal trends have caused people's feeling of connection to one another to decrease.
Community, for one, is not as strong. Kansas is rare in the sense that many people grow up in the same town for their entire lives. This is often not the case. More and more, people do not know their neighbors and often don't care to get to know them.
People also seem to be dismissive of religion because it is not individualistic enough. Anyone who seeks a genuine understanding of religion is often perceived as weak, as not being "hard" enough for our society. People who admit their human frailties are seen as foolish.
This is unfortunate because human beings are social animals. We need one another. This is a primary reason why people join the greek system, community organizations and other groups. We human beings simply function better with support from others. We also are happier in this setting. Perversely, though, we do not seem to recognize this.
This University of Kansas is a good example. People from one view point dismiss those who look for community as misguided hippies. People from another viewpoint dismiss those who look for community as conniving frat boys. Indeed, there is no room for the perceived weakness of needing support. Add to this the perception that religion is a sign of weakness, and alienation seems to be the only thing acceptable.
Religion's ability to connect people has also been decreased. The symbols of religion that we most often see in our society have become tele evangelists and those who use the Bible to persecute minorities. It is no wonder that spiritual people are often dismissed as "religious freaks."
What can we do about all this? We can join and help build community groups. Whether they are religious in nature or not isn't what is important. What is important is that people, especially children, feel that they have a place in society, and they are unconditionally valued.
While a nation of church members and "big brothers" may sound corny to our current sensibilities, the alternative seems to be children leaving high schools in body bags.

Hall residents give Templin female-run government
By Jamie Knodel
jknode@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Never before has Templin Hall had so much female influence. Next year, the hall will be led by a student hall government dominated by women.
Last night, officers took their positions, and even though this happens every year, this time was for the history books. Templin residents elected four women to hold the four Templin executive officer positions for the 1999-2000 school year.
The residence hall positions will be filled next year with Dulcinea King, Council
Grove freshman, as president; Jennifer Timmer, Lawrence freshman, as vice-president; Paula Spreitzer, Overland Park freshman, as secretary; and Christy Larson, Emporia freshman, as treasurer.
King said she did not think the fact that the positions were held by women would affect the hall any differently than if men also held positions.
"We have a lot of goals to get people
"We have a lot of goals to get people together to make Templin a community," she said. "I think our goals and priorities would be close to anyone else's."

"together to make Templin a community," she said. "I think our goals and priorities would be close to anyone else's."
Nick Crews, outgoing Templin Hall president and Tulsa, Okla., sophomore, said he thought the hall would benefit from the new makeup of hall government.
"They will bring with them new programs and perspectives," he said.
Crews said the election's outcome did not surprise him because there was only one male candidate who attempted a late write-in campaign.
Templin Hall has only been open to female residents for the last two years. Before the renovations, it served as an all-male dormitory.
"Because Templein has only been open to women for a short time, there have not been that many opportunities for women to serve." Crews said.
Hall residents said they did not expect gender to play a factor in hall government decisions next year.
"I don't think that hall government and things in the hall will change just because women are in the executive positions," said Nick Johnson, Kansas City, Mo., sophomore.

- Because of out-of-district tuition taxes,
Douglas County taxpayers pay $24 for every
About 600 KU students take classes at community colleges each semester. Here is a breakdown of how this affects Douglas county taxpayers:
credit hour that a Douglas County resident enrolls in an out-of-county community college. These fees are paid through Douglas County property taxes.
- KU students attending out-of-county colleges add as much as four percent to Douglas County property taxes.

nificant money if the student enrolled in the class somewhere else.
Linus Williams, Stigler, Okla., senior, said he struggled through three semesters of Spanish at the University of Kansas before deciding to take a class equivalent to Spanish 216 at Kansas City Kansas Community College.
When students do choose to take classes outside the University, there is a direct impact on Douglas County taxpayers.
"When any student from Douglas County goes to Johnson County, we get billed for it," said Craig Weinaug, Douglas County Administrator. "If you list a Douglas County address but attend college in another county, you pay so much per credit hour tuition, and the county pays the rest."
A representative for the Legislative Research Department for the Kansas Association of Counties said that Douglas County taxpayers pay $24 for each credit hour taken outside the county.
Weinauga said this $24 was figured in with Douglas County property taxes, and the total junior college bill added up to about $1 million a year.
"After having finished taking my third level of Spanish here, I was basically just exhausted from having to spend an extraordinary amount of time studying — time that I didn't feel was worth it." he said.
"Your property taxes would be 4 percent less if you didn't have students going to school out of county." Weinau said.
Long said the classes most often enrolled in by KU students at JCCC were Western civilization, college algebra and language courses.
Chris Sawyer, Enid, Okla., senior, is enrolled in General Physics II at JCCC. He said physics was the only class he chose not to take at the University
"A lot of those students come over here to take courses because they perceive them to be easier, but we offer smaller classes and our classes are taught by faculty instead of teaching assistants," she said.
"Physics is a hard class at KU," Sawyer said, "Johnson County is a smaller school, and all the classes are easier."
Rosalea Postma-Carttar, assistant specialist of Spanish and Portuguese at the University, said she suggested to her Spanish 108 students that they spend, on average, 10 hours each week outside class studying Spanish.
This may seem a lot to some students.
"The 10-hour recommendation is actually based on a national standard of two hours of study outside of class for every hour in class, it's not tied to Spanish per se," she said.
Postma-Carttar said that the University's basic Spanish programs were comparable to those at other universities but that the graduate program was highly rated nationally.
Jim Woelfel, director of the Humanities and Western Civilization program, said he thought many students took Western Civilization courses at Johnson County because the classes at the University were full or did not fit into the students' schedules. He said that for a number of years, JCCC and KCK constructed their Western Civilization courses along the same lines as the University of Kansas did.
The conflict between community colleges and the University of Kansas is part of the educational morsass that has helped to pass a bill in the Kansas Legislature that will put Kansas universities and community colleges under the same Board of Regents.
The State Board of Education supervises Kansas community colleges, and the Kansas Board of Regents oversees the universities. However, the recently passed Senate Bill 345 awaits Gov. Bill Graves' signature and will bring both types of institutions under the same supervision.
Under the bill, the Board of Regents will be reconstituted into a nine-member board. Three members will oversee the state's universities, three will oversee the community colleges, and the remaining three members will provide coordination between the institutions.
Barbara Conant, Kansas Board of Regents Director of Communications, said that the board was aware that some students crossed between campuses in Kansas each year and that it caused inconveniences.
"It is one of the issues that has driven the legislature to try to help smooth coordination issues and make sure the students are getting the education they need in the environment they need," Conant said.
Weinaug said the amount of money Douglas County taxpayers paid for tuition had been consistent for the past three years. This restructuring of the Board of Regents could provide some financial relief. By 2004, Douglas County taxpayers will no longer pay out-of-district tuition taxes, he said.

KU literary magazine turns 10

Kiosk, the University of Kansas' student literary magazine, will celebrate its 10th anniversary and its 20th issue with its release Thursday.
KIOSK
"I think visually it's very excit-
cated to the author, said he also liked the interplay of literature and design.
Throughout its 10 years, the magazine has received artwork from Roger Shimomura, distinguished professor of art; poetry from Luci Tapahonso, associate professor of English; and stories from late beatnik and Lawrence resident William S. Burroughs.
Doty said Kiosk's cutting-edge graphics made it different from other publications.
"I think it's been remarkably consistent," she said. "It's still going after all this time."
"It's unusual to have a design department and a literary magazine working so closely together," she said.

Jenny Oakson, assistant poetry editor, said the high level of competition for space in the magazine was also good.
"It's kind of like you're seeing the cream of the crop," she said
This week's issue will have a cover displaying the covers from the previous 19 issues and also will contain a feature story on Patrick Dooley, assistant professor of design, two short stories, six poems and some artwork.
John Rockhold, co-editor of Klosk and next year's editor, said he had two goals as the magazine moved into its second decade.
The first goal was to increase the length of the magazine, while the second was to make the magazine more visible, he said.
"I think a lot of people unfortunately don't really know what it is," he said. "I hope that next year I can increase awareness of

Yesterday, Jenkins requested that the board not re-vote on his complaint because it would not hear new evidence.
"I had hoped to have an entire new hearing on this issue so that students could hear arguments from both sides on an issue, which will affect them for the next 20 years," he said in a letter to Watkins. "But having an open hearing to hear only the vote will serve no purpose."
Jenkins said he would try to add a provision to next year's elections code that would require the board to conduct open hearings, including evidentiary and deliberative phases.
"They're still keeping students out of the process," he said. "It's ludicrous. I'm very upset."
In addition, the board will vote on a complaint filed by Partha Mazumdar, graduate senator, which alleged that members of YOU were responsible for creating a brochure that
calumne Delta Force was ant-greek. The board had ruled there was not enough evidence to prove that the allegation was true.
Korb Maxwell, student body president, said he probably would not attend the vote because he did not think the results would change.
The board also will vote on several alleged offenses by YOU candidates, such as campaigning near a polling site and exceeding spending limits.

On the second level, there will be a set of retractable bleachers overlooking the 50-meter pool and an observation deck that may be used as a warm-up space for swimming classes or as a teaching area. A breeway between the aquatic center and the small gym of Free State High School will connect the two buildings.

Last night the Commission:
Decided to transfer Kansas Department of Transportation funds from a resurfacing project on Sixth Street between Maine and Tennessee streets to a project later this year an Iowa Street because it was determined that Iowa Street was more in need of repairs.
Approved plans to build Southwestern Bell wireless antennas on top of a city water tower, 3708 W. Sixth Street.

Tom Wolfe, who represented the Parks and Recreation Department, said the aquatic center should be finished by March 2001.
"We'll be ready to begin site work in the next few weeks," Wolfe said. "Then, in July, we will bid the construction of the center and begin building in August or September."
The project conforms with the city's Horizon 2020 plan, which addresses parks, recreation and open space and is a part of the city's comprehensive plan for parks and recreation. Both Horizon 2020 and the comprehensive plan aim at developing programs targeted especially at youth and teens.
The building plans will be available for public review in the lobby of City Hall, 6 E, Sixth St. Wolfe said there would be a public meeting in June for residents to voice their opinions about the building plans.
The center will be open to Lawrence residents, KU students, students in the Lawrence school system and swim clubs.

NATO downs Yugoslav fighter
Bombings continue despite hint of pause
The Associated Press
BELGRADE, Yugoslavia — NATO downed a Yugoslav MIG-29 fighter jet in a dogfight over Serbia and struck a hydraulics factory, fuel storage depots and armored vehicles yesterday, showing no letup in the bombings after President Clinton hinted at a pause in air raids.
Pentagon officials said a U.S. Air Force F-16 shot down a Yugoslav MiG-29 in a high-speed engagement about 2.5 miles over Serbian airspace. The Russian-designed plane is the best in the Yugoslav air force.
At NATO headquarters, Maj. Gen. Walter Jertz of the German air force confirmed that an allied aircraft intercepted and shot down a Yugoslav aircraft in "what pilots call an air-to-air fight."
NATO also said its planes bombed a MiG-29 parked at an airfield.
While Yugoslav aircraft have been struck on the ground at various Serbian and Montenegrin airports—even seen hiding under the tails of large commercial airplanes
— the Yugoslav air force has avoided confrontations with NATO warplanes for much of the air war.
On the third day of the conflict, March 26, American F-15C jets shot down two Yugoslav MiG-29s after they entered the air space of Bosnia-Herzegovina.
Most traffic lights were still out and many residents in Belgrade spent a second night in darkness after the power grid was crippled by NATO bombings. Power was restored in some parts of the capital yesterday, but went out again.
Work crews had struggled Monday to restore electricity to much of Yugoslavia after NATO targeted two major power grids late Sunday. Power rationing was imposed in the central Serbian city of Kragujev.
British Air Marshal John Day said the main focus of the latest
attacks on tanks, artillery and military vehicles. Allied firepower also struck fuel storage facilities and bridges.
Yugoslav media reported that a NATO missile hit a bus Monday in Kosovo, killing
THE RIGHT TO VOTE.
Clinton: Says Milosevic could get a 'pause' in airstrikes.
20 people and injuring 43. NATO spokesman Jamie Shea denied the accounts, saying yesterday that NATO commanders had checked all gun cameras from planes operating in the area and interviewed all pilots.
"We can find no evidence of any NATO involvement in this incident," Shea said, suggesting the
attack on a rural road near Pec that has been blamed on NATO may instead have been the result of an ambush.
Yesterday's attacks came a day after Clinton said there could be "a bombing pause" in airstrikes if Yugoslav leader Slobodan Milosev accepted NATO demands for a troop pullout from Kosovo, the return of all refugees and deployment of an international security force.
Clinton was to fly to Brussels, Belgium, yesterday for an update on the air war from Secretary-General Javier Solana at NATO headquarters. He was then heading to Germany to meet with U.S. troops and some Kosovo refugees.
NATO launched airstrikes against Yugoslavia on March 24 after Milosevic rejected a Western peace plan to end the fighting in Kosovo, an ethnic Albanian-majority province of 2 million residents in Serbia, the main Yugoslav republic.
More than 675,000 ethnic Albanians have poured out of Kosovo since the airstrikes began.
Former White House worker details advance
The Associated Press
ALEXANDRIA, Va. — Former White House volunteer Kathleen Willey testified yesterday that President Clinton was "very forceful" in an unwanted sexual advance near the Oval Office in 1993.
"His hands were all over me." Willey said, testifying for the prosecution in the trial of her former friend, Julie Hatt Steele.
Recounting her version of an incident she first described to the nation in an interview on 60 Minutes, Willey, in a soft but unwerving voice, said she told the president she desperately needed a paid job at the White House because of her family's financial difficulties.
Clinton then took her to a galley near the oval office and made his advance, she said.
Clinton has under oath denied Willey's allegation.
Willey said Clinton backed her against a wall and "tried to kiss me. He was very forceful. His hands were all over me."
Willey said Clinton kissed her on the mouth, touched her breasts and put his hands up her dress.
She testified at the trial of Steele who is charged with lying to investigators to undercut Willey's story.
tiguan's to understand Winyer's story.
Earlier yesterday, prosecutors summoned one of Clinton's lawyers, Mitch Ettinger, to describe his visit to Steele in January 1988, while he was working on
the president's defense in the Paula Jones sexual harassment lawsuit.
Under sometimes contentious questioning, Ettinger said he sought an affidavit from Steele but never pressured her to sign it. He insisted her affidavit wasn't crucial to the president's defense.
Friends of Steele have testified that she told them about the alleged incident between Willey and Clinton before 1997. Clinton has denied any such incident.
Steele told investigators she first heard the allegation against Clinton when Willey asked her to lie to back up her story to a Newsweek reporter.
Steele is charged with obstruction of justice and giving false statements and accused of lying to FBI agents and two grand juries in Kenneth Starr's investigation of the president.
Ettinger said Steele told him that Willey had "asked her to fabricate a story regarding Mr. Clinton and Mrs. Willey to the effect that Mr. Clinton had improperly made sexual advances toward her."
Prosecutors have argued that Steele lied to ally herself with the president. Defense attorneys maintain she is telling the truth.
The discrepancy is one factor that made it impossible for Starr to send an impeachment referral on the Willey matter to the House last year along with his referral on the Monica Lewinsky affair.
New York police on trial for brutalizing immigrant
Officers sodomized man, prosecutors say
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Five Caucasian police officers went on trial on civil rights charges yesterday in the case of Abner Louima, a Haitian immigrant who investigators say was sexually brutalized in a stationhouse bathroom.
The 1997 case, along with this year's police shooting of an unarmed African immigrant, has strained relations between the Police Department and the African-American community.
In opening statements, federal prosecutor Kenneth Thompson described in graphic detail how the defendants supposedly battered Louima, who was handcuffed, inside a patrol car and then sodomized him in a bloody assault in a precinct bathroom in Brooklyn.
A defense attorney countered that Louima had "150 million reasons" to lie about the incident — a $150 million lawsuit against the city.
Officer Justin Volpe, 27, and three other officers are charged with assaulting Louima outside the precinct. And Volpe and Officer Charles Schwarz are charged in the attack inside the precinct bathroom, where Volpe reportedly stuck a broomstick into Louima's rectum and then jammed it into his mouth. A fifth officer is charged with covering up the attack.
Louima was hospitalized with severe internal injuries, prompting widespread demonstrations against police brutality in the city. He has recovered and is expected to be the government's star witness.
"Inside that bathroom, Abner Louima suffered more than a beating." Thompson told the jury of eight Caucasians, three Hispanic Americans and one African American. "Ladies and gentlemen, Abner Louima was tortured inside that bathroom."
The prosecutor said Louima was picked up in a case of mistaken identity: Police wanted Louima's cousin, who had actually struck Volpe during a melee outside a Brooklyn nightclub.
Mavryn Kornberg, Volpe's lawyer, said the lawsuit gave Louima $150 million in incentives to "cut the truth, to modify the truth, to in fact lie."
He suggested another explanation for Louma's internal injuries.
Those injuries were "not consistent with a nonconsentual insertion of an object into his rectum," Kornberg said. Also, he said, there was evidence of another man's DNA mixed in with some of Louima's feces found in the bathroom.
Volpe, Schwarz, 33, Thomas Bruder, 33, and Thomas Wiesen, 35, are charged with violating Louima's civil rights by beating him after his arrest outside the nightclub. Prosecutors also alleged that Schwarz held Louima down while Volpe rammed the stick into Louima's rectum and mouth.
The officers' supervisor, Sgt. Michael Bellomo, 37, is charged with helping cover up the attack.

In Bloom
University landscapers work yearround to cultivate campus grounds
Story by Courtney Cullor • Photos by Graham K. Johnson
R
oses are red and violets usually are purple. Unfortunately for the University of Kansas landscaping crew, this holds true.
"It's easy to find flowers with red blooms," said Bence Williams, assistant director of facilities operations personnel services. "But Mother Nature doesn't care much o flowers."
Every spring, the University's landscaping crew plants red and blue flowers in honor of the University's school colors.
Williams supervises the planting of most of the flower beds on campus.
"You look in the gardening catalogs, and they advertise blue flowers," Williams said. "Well, they're not blue at all; they're purple."
"And this wouldn't go over well here. We try to avoid purple flowers for sure, but it's hard to distinguish between blue and purple."
According to Williams, shopping for flowers is a year-round job. Every year, the University sends out contracts to potential suppliers, who give bids.
Contracts that specify the size, color, and species of flowers are sent out like any other University contracts. Much planning and price comparison must be considered before the flowers can be ordered. Williams said.
Consider the huge numbers of flower beds on the KU campus and then consider making the orders. Williams' job is not an easy one.
The University spends about $15,000 a year to plant 18,000 plants, said Wayne Reusch, physical plant supervisor for the department of facilities operations.
Williams said the landscape crew helped to get the job done. Reusch said he used the principles of xeriscaping in various Lawrence locations and on the KU campus.
Williams said the landscape crew helped to get the job done.
Aeriscaping — from Greek word "dry" — is changing the way the University covers its plants. This technique saves water by replacing thirsty plants and grasses with tough flora in a
planned design. The object is to create a water-efficient landscape.
Williams said he wished that it were possible to have even more flower beds on campus. But because planting time conflicts with commencement preparations, the staff does not have enough time to do the weeding and watering required for more summer flower beds.
"Graduation flowers come in the Friday before graduation, so it takes a lot of time just to get all the flowers on campus to match." Reusch said.
In the past, groups, including environmental organizations, have volunteered to tend specific flower beds.
"That may work for a while," said Williams. "But students are transient and what works for one year may not appeal to the group next year."
So do students notice a difference when flowers are planted in the spring?
"I have never noticed that KU's flowers match the University," said Tim Badley, Arkansas City, senior. "I just noticed that they were pretty. KU could have more flowers because more flowers means more happy people."
Ruth Leibowitz, Lawrence graduate student, said that her mind was too occupied to truly appreciate the campus gardens.
"Graduate students are so overworked that we pay no attention," she said. "Even though I like flowers, and I'm sure they're pretty, I just don't have the time to look at them."
Leilian Patterson, Hutchinson junior, said she thought the campus was prettiest in the spring when the flowers bloom.
"My name means 'heavenly flower,' so I was born to like flowers." Patterson said, "I notice that there are lots of red flowers."
ers, Pattie son said. The office that team was interested in comments from students and that it took student comments seriously in its planning. Williams said that if the staff heard positive comments about specific flowers or flower beds, it tried to keep them the same for the next year.

But many annuals, such as bachelor's buttons, morning glory, alyssum and
petunias do come in
single colors. And with single colors,it's important to pay attention to the seating arrangement of the flowers, which can create a rich reward for creative impulses and eyes.
One bachelor's button standing alone does not make much of a show, but a solid two-foot patch of bachelor buttons bordered with a two-foot layer of crimson geraniums makes a bold statement, said Bence Williams, assistant director of the department of facilities operations.

To comment on the flowers on campus, call the production control unit at 864-4770, or the landscape area at 864-4535.
Some arrangements, such as the new landscaping around Budig Hall, are designed by an outside landscaping firm with facilities operations doing the maintenance. Other flower beds, such as those at the new Visitors Center, are designed and planted by the facilities operations staff.

Friends' ridicule of pro wrestling leads to critique of sport's virtues
Last week, I did a column for my people. But this week my column is dedicated to the ladies.
Why? Because we're talking about professional wrestling this week. The best soap opera on television.
A couple of weeks ago, my roommate Matt, cooked up a Monday-night Mexican feast to celebrate my birthday. We, of course, invited our lady neighbors, and just about any other of our fairer-sex friends we could think of. We figured, with a combination of dazzling cooking from Matt and my world-
famous pina coladas, the ladies would be impressed.
But then, being the Romeos that we are not, we slipped up. Dinner was served, and we turned the TV to Raw is War, our wrestling program of choice.

Immediately, we were mocked.

this stuff?" my friend Erin asked. "I'm embarrassed for you."
Not only is Erin as about as smart of a person I know, but she is also a sports nut, and here she was ridiculing the evening's "sport" of choice.
I may be stereotyping, but it seems to me that most women can't accept wrestling.
So then it got me thinking. Can I defend this program? Can I actually stand up for "The Undertaker," a seven-foot monster who acts like he's possessed? Can I stand up for "The Big Show" Paul Wight, former Wichita State basketball center turned wrestling giant?
I was talking to my good friend T.J., and he was telling me how he and his roommates waited in line for several hours to get nosebled tickets to "Over the Edge," a pay-per-view wrestling event that will be broadcast live from Kemper Arena on May 23.
Now, T.J. is another one of these highly intelligent people, and he can't wait to scream his lungs out while watching "The Rock" flip "Mankind" into the third-row of seats at Kemper.
My roommate Jeff told me that his little brother and his friends were considering skipping high school graduation so they could go to the "sporting" event.
Then Jeff started talking about how it he were world wrestling champion, he'd wear the belt around his waist rather than carrying it out to the ring because, darn it, it looks more tough.
Finally, I decided I couldn't defend professional wrestling because it needs no defense. It's just dumb fun, just like almost everything else on television. The guys get it.
Sure, it's fake. But every main event match provides the drama of a championship boxing match. And when you see "Mankind" get thrown off the top of a two-story steel cage, you've got to say "Oooh." You can't fake that.
Sure, at times it is dumb. Not every second of wrestling programming can involve award-winning writing.
So let us have our Royal Rumbles, our Wrestlemania 32. It's called sports entertainment. And you know what else? I'd wear the belt around my waist, too.
And we haven't said a darn thing about Tae-Bo vet. have we?
And ladies, we didn't say anything when Marlena was possessed by the devil on *Days of Our Lives*. Or when Katie kidnapped Dawn and changed her appearance so she looked like Katie so she could marry Victor. Or whatever crazy plot came up. We let it slide.
Home isn't always sweet
Tennis players lack support from students, University
By Dave Koehn sports@kansan.com Special to the Kansan
It all came down to this.
With the other six matches completed in the first round of the Big 12 Tournament, the fate of the Kansas men's team team fell squarely onto the shoulders of sophomore Micah Zemer. Twenty-third-ranked Texas A&M was supposed to dispose of a young Kansas tennis team with relative ease. After all, the Aggies were playing in their own backyard in front of nearly 500 screaming fans.
However, in this case, the jeers and profanities from the A&M faithful only inspired Zomer. Fighting off three match points in the third and deciding set, Zomer upset the Aggies in a tiebreaker, proving home court advantage isn't everything in the world of college tennis.
Luis Uribe played his fourth and final season at Kansas this year. Fighting injuries, Uribe played in the No.1 spot on the men's team for most of the season and was ranked as high as No. 9 in the country. At times, Uribe said, he felt under-appreciated.
Abaroa was ranked as high as eighth in the nation in singles and No. 6 in doubles during his four-year stint at Kansas. He is currently playing tennis and touring the world on the men's professional tour.
Many critics cite Kansas' poor tennis facilities as a prime example of the lack of respect that tennis receives at the University.
Abaroa also said the University had been fortunate to recruit high-quality players, considering the poor tennis facilities.
"We were Big Eight champions three years in a row and still we had no facilities" said Enrique Abaroa, a two-time All-American tennis player at Kansas. "Having a facility draws attention and creates interest from people throughout campus."
In fact, many Kansas players don't see much advantage in playing at home at all. Despite producing All-Americans and winning conference championships on a regular basis, the Kansas tennis program has existed outside the spotlight. During the past 10 years, Kansas has produced 12 different All-American tennis players. In that same time span, the men's and women's teams have combined to win eight conference championships. These aren't bad numbers for those who think that Kansas' only claim to fame is its basketball tradition.
"We had some of the best junior players in the world," Abaroa said. "It's amazing that we came here after we saw the facilities on our recruiting trips."
“Tennis has always been one of the top sports here,” Uribe said. “I don't know if tennis is treated the way it should be. Sometimes people walk by us during our matches on the rec courts, and they don't
even realize we're the tennis team."
At the same time, Uribe said he could understand the University's predicament.
"We don't make money for the school, so it's obvious that they're not going to spend as much money on us," he said.
Sophomore women's tennis player Monika Sekulov echoed Uribe's sentiments.
"A lot of people don't know about our matches as much as the football and basketball games," she said.
Sekulov said the team lost out on its home-court edge from the lack of support at the University.
01
"If we had more people at our matches, it would make it harder for our opponents," she said. "When we go to other schools, it makes a huge difference to play in front of their home crowds."
The women's team finished the year ranked No. 17 in the nation and is currently ranked third in the Big 12, so a lack of success doesn't appear to be the major obstacle the tennis program faces in gaining a stronger local following.
Are people uninterested in the game of tennis as a whole, or are they turned off by the infrastructure that is college tennis? The answer seems to be a little of both.
Those who follow the sport think there are numerous aspects of college tennis today that seem to turn the typical sports fan off.
Kansas men's tennis coach Mark Riley said he thought the length of the typical college dual meet was one of the primary reasons for the lack of interest in college tennis today.
"Right now, college tennis matches take about four hours to play," he said. "We have to come up with a format where college matches only take two hours to play. Your typical sports fan loses interest in that amount of time."

Kansas Football
The reality of playing in the NFL is slowly settling in for former Kansas offensive lineman Justin Glasgow. After signing with the Miami Dolphins as a free agent April 18, Glasgow attended the team's minicamp the next weekend at the Dolphins' practice facility in Fort Lauderdale, Fla. He recently spoke with Kansan's Mike Harrity about everything from his new coach's hairdo to being teammates with future Hall of Fame quarterback Dan Marino. The following is from the interview:
Glasgow discusses minicamp experiences
To realize you're actually with the Dolphins, playing professional football with the big boys — the whole experience is surreal.
That night, I met Coach (Jimmy) Johnson and all the staff. That was kind of weird, though. Because seeing him on TV, I just expected him bigger. But he's actually not that big. He's kind of a smaller guy. But his hair was very in place. I don't think that stuff moves. He basically just said, "We're going to have fun this year," and was upbeat about everything.
When I first got there, they picked me up from the airport and dropped me off at the hotel. Our hotel was right off the golf course where Caddyshack was filmed, and I'm a big fan of the movie, so that was cool.
What's so amazing about it all is that the first day, I sit down at my locker, and I'm just kind of looking around, and I look right across from me and — bang — Dan Marino's locker is right there. This is a guy I've been watching all my life, and for as long as I can remember, it's been Dan Marino and the Miami Dolphins. And then you realize that guy right there is making $7 million.
The next morning we had to wake up at 5:30 a.m. and had to be at the facility by 6 a.m. We went over there that morning, and they just do a battery of physicals, everything you can imagine. They want to know every injury you've had since you were in first grade. And then they took an X-ray of it. Didn't matter how long ago it was, they X-rayed it. I was in the X-ray room for at least 40 minutes.
Dan Marino is a class act. He could walk in, and it's just kind of expected for him to not even talk to rookies. But he was awesome. That first day, he talked to us and asked how things were going. He's a class act.

An abundance of rain, which began Monday night and continued throughout yesterday, made field conditions unplayable. As a result, both the baseball game against Washburn and softball game against Wichita State were canceled yesterday.
The weather has made playing tough for both teams.
"It's been very frustrating." said softball coach Tracy Bunge. "The weather these past few weeks has not been very conducive to playing baseball and softball."
This marked the fourth time this season the softball team has had a doubleheader rained out. And this one won't be rescheduled.
"We were hoping to get in a couple of good games before the conference tournament," Bunge said. "Now we're trying to find some other Division I teams to pick up a game or two this week. So far we've been unsuccessful."
If the Jayhawks can't find any opponents to play, they will have to wait until the conference tournament begins May 12 to play again. This doesn't please Bunge.
"It's not going to help us," she said. "No coach likes to go two weeks in between games. It doesn't help at staying sharp on the field. It's not the ideal situation for our team to be in."
The weather also poses some problems for the baseball team. The Jayhawks' game against Washburn will not be rescheduled. now, the team will have to wait until it plays Oral Roberts at 7 p.m.
tomorrow at home to try to break a seven-
game losing streak.
However, Bunge said she saw two potential benefits of the cancellation. First, junior pitcher Sarah Workman will be able to rest her sore arm. Second, it will give the players an opportunity to focus more on their studies before finals, which fall right in the middle of the conference tournament.
The team also will have to wait for the chance to earn Coach Bobby Randall his 400th win as a coach, which would make him only the fifth active coach in the Big 12 Conference to accomplish the feat.
Field maintenance also was made difficult from the rain. Both teams have tarps to cover the infield, but other problems persisted.
"If any amount of moisture on the field starts to puddle up, we have to get the paddles off to make it safe to play," said Mike Stockton, manager of the baseball grounds crew.
The softball team is responsible for its own maintenance and encounters problems of its own.
"It really makes life difficult when it rains like this," Bunge said. "We tarped the field Sunday and possibly could have played, but we've also got holes in the tarp, which lets water through, so we need a new tarp next year."

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (May 5):
You're usually a workaholic, but this year you might decide to have a little fun. Make your plans in May, and start saving in June. Late July is your best time for a move. In late October, the workload picks up, but the money should be good, so don't worry about it. December is full of surprises; as usual, some of them are old, familiar ones. A person you disagree with forces you to learn in February.
Aries (March 21-April 19): Today is a 5.
To get the advantage, check the day's rating: 10 is the easiest day, 0 the most challenging.
Aries (March 21-April 19): Today is a 5.
Just when you've figured you're the best, you have to re-evaluate matters. If you team up with a partner today, you'll be much more effective, although you may not know who that is yet. The person who's best for you is almost your mirror image, and that's what makes him or her so hard to recognize.
Taurus (April 20-May 20): Today is an 8.
Just when you thought it was time to relax, the work load increases. You'll be forced to be creative during the next few weeks, but that's OK. You do well under pressure. Don't think you're not good enough. You are.
Gemini (May 21-June 21): Today is a 5.
If you've been thinking about doing something romantic but haven't had the nerve to speak up yet, you'd better watch out. Today, you're liable to say it whether you mean to or not.
Cancer (June 22- July 22): Today is a 6.
Mars is going retrograde into Libra today, in your solar fourth house of home and family. When Mars is retrograde, it can cause delays or postponement of action you've planned. So if that happens during the next few weeks, don't despair. It's only a temporary condition.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Today is a 5.
You learn best by reading, and you'll learn even more by rereading something. The classics? Could be. How about digging them out and starting on them again? You might find something new.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sep. 22): Today is a 7.
You'll be getting moneyowed to you during the next few weeks. You'll do it by becoming assertive. No point in being Mr. or Ms. Nice Guy anymore.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Today is a 5.
Libra (Sep. 23 - Oct. 23): Today is a 9.
You have new energy, enthusiasm, spontaneity and creativity. Don't be surprised if the ideas you come up with are ideas you've had before. But now, take action on them.
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Today is a 6.
You might start second-guessing what you're doing. Are you in the right job? Are you doing it correctly? Don't let it inhibit you completely. Just plan more precisely.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Today is a 5.
Where you were a spectator before, now you want to become actively involved. You've stood by as others didn't do it right, but those days are done.
For the next few weeks, you'll make so much noise, you might end up leading the pack.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Today is a 7.
You will have career opportunities, and you may go back to something you've done before. Old skills will definitely be useful. If you don't have the old skills because you're just starting out, don't despair. You're gaining valuable skills right now.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Today is a 5.
You'll be more likely to take action during the next couple of weeks, and that could include travel. You'll probably go to a place you've been before.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Today is a 7.
You might make some shrewd deals during the coming weeks. It looks as if you'll be willing to take action, but do the homework first. Don't be impetuous. Take only calculated risks, and you'll do well.

Cubans return victorious after game with Orioles
LAW ENFORCEMENT
HAVANA — A beaming President Fidel Castro and hundreds of screaming children greeted the victorious Cuban baseball team as it returned home yesterday after beating the Orioles in Baltimore.
"This was a truly historic event, "Castro said during a long speech on the steps of the University of Havana. "For a long time we have wanted to measure the advances in our sport, to know what would happen if such a game was held."
What Cubans saw, he said, were first-class baseball players with spirits of lions and tigers.
Note: Horoscopes have no basis in scientific fact and should be read for entertainment purposes only.
女
Thousands of baseball fans crammed the streets leading to the university to
Orioles
greet the hometown heroes as they arrived from the airport in open Jeeps, waving at the crowd. The players dressed identically in light cotton shirts and ties, slacks and beige jackets.
At the university, first baseman Omar Linares thanked Castro for his support for the game, a rematch after the Orioles defeated the Cuban players in Havana 3-2 in 11 innings on March 28.
M
"Cubal Cubal!" the fans chanted, some waving the red, white and blue Cuban flag.
SCORPIO
"Dear commander in chief, the mission you gave us has been completed," said a smiling Linares before hugging the leader, "Socialism or death! Patriotism or death! We will overcome!"
Earlier at the airport, the Cuban leader personally greeted Linares and Cuban umpire Calves, who tackled an anti-Castro protester who
ran onto the field with a political banner during the game.
During a speech that stretched more than three hours, Castro criticized sports agents who attempt to persuade Cuban athletes to defect and blasted the focus on money in American sports.
The International Olympic Committee's executive board said it had "no new element" of evidence to justify further action against Kim Unyong, a board member and international sports power-broker.
But the board said there was, enough new information to extend its investigation of a second leading member, Australia's Phil Coles, who like Kim had received a severe warning from an earlier inquiry.
But he gave no indication that any of the more than 300 members of the Cuban delegation had stayed behind, even though Baltimore police said Rigoberto Herrera, a member of the Cuban delegation that attended the game, walked into a police station yesterday and requested asylum.
"They go around the world buying athletes. They go around buying scientists and artists. It is very difficult to compete with that." Castro said. "We have to fight against these attempts to buy off our athletes."

LAUSANNE, Switzerland — Olympic leaders closed the case yesterday against the highest-ranking official caught in the Salt Lake City bribery scandal.
IOC closes investigation against board member
"I think and I hope this case will be settled by the IOC's June session in Seoul," IOC president Juan Antonio Samarran said.
P
Coles could face expulsion from the IOC if the investigation finds he violated more rules.
It appointed a three-member panel to report its latest findings by June 13.
Ferguson, a 6-foot-5 guard, backed out of his Indiana commitment two weeks ago.
adding that Cole may be called to appear before the new panel, made up of board members Keba Mbaye, Anita DeFrantz and Marc Hodler.
His father, Neil, said the decision was made partly because Recker was transferring and partly because Coach Bobby Knight was wavering on whether the school's scholarship offer to Ferguson would be honored.
Kevan Gosper, an executive board member from Australia, said a decision could come sooner than that.
HOOVER, Aia. — Trey Ferguson, a top basketball recruit who reneged on a verbal commitment to Indiana after Hoosier star Luke Recker left the school, has committed to Tennessee Tech.
Kim had risked expulsion if it was proved he knew that Salt Lake biders helped pay for his son's salary at a telecommunications company.
10
He was put under renewed scrutiny after his ex-wife claimed that representatives of Athens' unsuccessful bid for the 1996 Olympics gave the couple jewelry worth $6,000. He consistently denied the claims and refused to resign.
New evidence emerged yesterday when Australian media said Salt Lake City had obtained confidential briefing notes by Coles on how other IOC members could be trusted to vote.
All the allegations will be subject to "a single investigation and a single decision," Mbaye said.
"I'm not going to say Luke transferring was the only reason, but I know it put some doubt in Trey's mind," Niel Ferguson said at the time. "Trey believed if anyone would be happy at Indiana, it would be Luke. He said it just made him wonder. He said with Luke leaving, something just didn't feel right."
Touted recruit commits to Tennessee Tech
Trey Ferguson had originally planned to attend prep school in New Hampshire this fall and join the Hoosiers for the 2000-01 season.
Ferguson will go directly to Tennessee Tech, which he chose instead of Rutgers and Penn State.

Ultimate Frisbee teams reach national tourney
By Torrie Jones

sports at kanson.com
Kanson sportswriter
Most people's Ultimate Frisbee careers ended on the playground pitches of recesses past, but the University of Kansas has two Ultimate Frisbee squads that continue to play, taking advantage of the game's increasing worldwide popularity.
The HorrorZontals men's team and Betty women's team will be traveling to the Ultimate Frisbee national championships on Memorial Day weekend in Boulder, Colo. Both teams won regional championships on April 24.
"Our move to the Southern Region enabled us to play teams that aren't as gifted as some of the teams in the Northern Region," said Sarah Camastro, Evansville, Ill., graduate student. "The game is a lot bigger on the East Coast, so games tend to be more competitive."
The HorrorZontals also are going into the 12-team, single-elimination national championship tournament, hoping to continue their undefeated season.
The Ultimate Frisbee season is hard-fought, and the game is much more structured than the gym-class version of the same sport. The college game is played to a score of 15 in seven-on-seven matches that can last as long as two hours.
"This game definitely will get you in the best shape of your life because it involves a lot of running, cutting and jumping," said Stef Kerr, Kansas City, Kan., senior.
There are seven positions on an Ultimate Frisbee team. There are three handles, who generally throw the disk most often; two middleers, who do most of the cutting; and two longs, usually the team's highest jumpers.
Although college Ultimate Frisbee is more rigorous and rule-oriented than its playground counterpart, the game's atmosphere is laid-back, and the matches are played in the spirit of sportsmanship and unity.
"We are out here playing to emphasize the need for people to take good care of their bodies and to integrate sisterhood among the team members," Kerr said.
The Horror Zontals' trip to the single-elimination national tournament has the players excited about the possibility of winning the school's first Ultimate Frisbee championship.
"We haven't been in five years, so it's been a long time coming," said Jet Quenemoen, Minneapolis senior. "This season we had a lot of incentive because there are some members of our team that are playing in their last year."
The teams also compete in a Lawrence summer league that is open to players of all ages and will be held.

Tennis teams lacking KU support
Continued from page 1B
He also said that for the teams to remain successful, tennis needed to be publicized at Kansas.
"We have to try and sell tennis here at the University if we want to be able to compete with the Texases and the Texas A&Ms of the Big 12," he said.
David Dusek, a senior editor at Tennis Magazine, said the lure of money and fame had also done a great deal of damage to college tennis.
"There's a very small window o opportunity for the very top players to cash in on their abilities." Dusek said. "If you go to college and you play for two or three years, that's two or three years where you're not accepting prize money, and that's potential income that you're losing."
Dusek said it was because of this logic that many promising young players opted to play on the pro tour as an alternative to college tennis.
"A player with John McEnroe's ability today never goes to Stanford," he said. "Players of that caliber don't play college tennis. They've already made a decision to turn pro."
Take 17-year-old phenomenon
Anna Kournikova, for instance. By the time she was 12 years old, she had already signed with the IMG sports agency. In doing so, she decided that college tennis was not in her plans, even before she was old enough to be in high school.
"The money is certainly out there," Dusek said. "If you're good, it's difficult to turn it down."
Many college tennis experts say they think a recent decline in tennis' following throughout the United States explains the lack of support college tennis tends to receive. Although tennis is booming throughout Europe and South America, viewership has declined in recent years in the United States.
"The American population and society has so many different things to watch and be captivated by." Dusek said. "In other countries, there isn't nearly as much media hype around everything. It makes it difficult for tennis to take the spotlight here in the States."
Riley said one remedy to tennis' recent decline in the United States could come in the form of promotion. Riley said he thought tennis needed to be advocated toward the youth of America.
He said tennis camps had done wonders in promoting the sport to young players throughout the country. He also said physical-education classes could advocate the sport better than currently.
"People need to be exposed to tennis at a younger age," Riley said.
Although a number of reasons can be cited for college tennis' under-
appreciation at Kansas, both the men's and women's tennis teams have learned to take it in stride.
Glasgow recounts practices' speed, toughness
Although universities like Stanford can draw as many as 7,000 fans to a given match, Kansas fans only seem to filter in and out by the handfuls in recent years. It has become abundantly clear to Kansas tennis teams that home is not necessarily where the heart is.
"Regardless of the crowd, you still just have to go out there and play your hardest," Uribe said. "At times I don't even want to play at home when we play outdoors. The weather can affect us and we don't have as much support because of the facilities."

That Friday, we only had one practice. After lunch, we had a meeting, and they gave us our playbook. And when you see this thing that has got to be 400 pages long, and you are just like "God!"
Continued from page 1B
Here at KU, you put on helmets, and you go out in shorts, and you're walking through everything. Not at
the NFL level.
Everything's about three times as fast.
And we were basically full-contact during
KU
the practices. The second day was similar to a normal two-a-day practice here at KU. Wake up, practice, meetings, lunch, meetings, practice, meetings. I played left guard behind (starter) Kevin Gogan.
DKNY EYES
The whole minicamp was designed for the rookies to get as many reps as we could. My feeling is that Miami as a whole is really stacked right now. They're going to be a great ballclub. As far as making the team, my chances are probably not as great as they would be if I would have gone somewhere else. But I think I have a chance of at least making the practice squad.
My offensive line coach said that they're talking about a couple of veterans leaving, so he told me I have a good shot of making the practice squad. And when I signed with them, he said that they're not looking for someone to step right in. The whole idea is to bring someone in and develop them and hopefully get them on the team within a year.
On the last day, Coach Johnson is known for his end-of-practice gut check for the rookies during mini-camp. So he had us run 10 110-yard sprints. You had to finish them under 19 seconds and only got 45 seconds rest in between. Coach Johnson's deal is that when you run sprints, you can't show any sign of weakness. So after a sprint, you can't bend over or lay down. You have to stand there and act like it's no big deal. I was in pretty good shape, but it still broke me down. I made them all, except for one, and most of the guys fell out after six of them. We had one guy, a free agent offensive tackle they brought in, who's about 6-5, 360 pounds. He, needless to say, didn't do too well. On the last one, he was basically walking.
Get some
The thing was that all the rookies, right after the last practice that Sunday, left for the airport. So all the rookies are scrambling to get to the airport on time. Well, that guy basically collapses in the shower while we all left. So the weekend was interesting, to say the least.

UConn forward to enter NBA
Richard Hamilton to skip final year of college for pros
STORRS, Conn. — All-American Richard Hamilton, who helped the University of Connecticut men's basketball team to its first national championship, will skip his senior season and enter the NBA draft.
The Associated Press
Hamilton, who averaged a team-leading 21.5 points a game this season, announced his decision yesterday, just less than a month after teammate Khalid El-Amin said he would return next season.
Hamilton was voted the outstanding player in the Final Four, averaging 26 points and six rebounds a game as Connecticut upset Duke 77-74 for
A 6-foot-6 forward, Hamilton was the third player in the Big East's 20-year history to win the conference's player of the year honor at least twice. Chris Mullin of St. John's won in 1983, '84 and '85; Patrick Ewing of Georgetown received the award in '84 and '85.
Hamilton won the award in 1998 and shared it this year with Miami forward Tim James.
the NCAA tournament championship.
Hamilton helped UConn to a 25-2 record this year and the university's fifth Big East Conference title in the last six regular seasons. The Huskies were ranked No.1 for 10 weeks.
"If we hadn't won the national championship, to be honest with you, I might have come back," he said.
Hamilton, 21, contemplated turning professional after his sophomore year but stayed in school in hopes of winning a national title. He said winning the title was a key factor in his decision to leave.
UConn coach Jim Calhoun said he supported Hamilton's decision.
"I look at it as a graduation date for Rip. He graduated from
on basketball program," Calhoun said, using Hamilton's nickname.
WOLF
Calhoun, who came to
Connecticut from Northeastern in 1986, said Hamilton was the best scorer he had ever coached.
Hamilton said he would try to continue his studies to earn his college degree.
Ten UConn players have been drafted or played in the NBA in the last 10 years. Hamilton is the third to leave school early to
Hamilton is considered a lottery pick in the NBA draft, probably among the first 10 players to be chosen, because of his ability to score off the drive and play defense.
Hamilton leaves UConn as the university's second-highest all-time scorer, with 2,036 points. Chris Smith scored 2,145 from 1988-92.

Hamilton's 19.8 points a game is third in school history, behind Wes Bialosuknia (1965-67, 23.6 points a game) and Walt Dropo (1942-47, 20.7), who went on to play major-league baseball with the Boston Red Sox.
"All I know is, when he left the college basketball floor with his teammates at Tropicana Field, there wasn't a better player in college basketball," Calhoun said. "That's a pretty good way to end your college career."
Younger Rush brother headed to Missouri

"I think it was time to step out of his shadow and become my own man and be my own player," said the 6-foot-7 forward, who led Pembroke Hill to three Missouri state basketball championships and was one of the most highly sought prep stars in the nation.
It had been widely assumed that Kareem would follow JaRon Rush to UCLA. JaRon started 22 games for the Bruins this past season and was named to the All-Pac-10 freshman team after averaging 11.4 points and a team-leading 7.3 rebounds.
Kareem said his brother and his mother were both upset with his choice.
"It was tough to decide whether to join my

Another big reason for his decision was Quin Snyder, 32, who was hired from the Duke staff last month after the resignation of Norm Stewart. Missouri's coach since the 1967-68 season.

PGA won't manage KSU course
The Associated Press
MANHATTAN — The PGA Tour has backed away from its plans to manage golfer Jim Colbert's new course, under construction near Kansas State University
Robert Krause, vice president for institutional advancement at Kansas State, said the PGA Tour would still allow Colbert Hills to operate as a Licensed PGA Tour Collegiate Course.
He said the change should affect neither the course's construction nor the quality of its operation. The PGA Tour had not committed any money to the project, so its pullout shouldn't have a financial
effect, Krause said in announcing the management change Monday.
Vern Kelly, president of the PGA Tour, said the move should not be seen as a blow to the prestige of Colbert Hills.
"I view it as a compliment that we were willing to do this just as a straight license," Kelly said. "As we became more comfortable with the folks at Kansas State and the nature of what's being built, it became less important for us to control the quality of the operation. We knew the quality was going to be there."
Kelly said the PGA Tour also had shelved its plans to create a series of collegiate courses, of which Colbert Hills would have been the first.
Kelly and Krause said the PGA Tour would continue to provide consulting services to Kansas State. Krause also said talks were in progress with a different management firm.
Colbert, a 1964 Kansas State alumnus and leading money-winner on the PGA Senior Tour in 1995 and 1996, is serving as a consultant with the course's governing board in the process of firming up details concerning the new management.
Colbert broke ground on the 300- acre, 18-hole course last June while in Manhattan for his induction into the Kansas Sports Hall of Fame.
The $8.5 million course is set to open in Spring 2000 on the northwestern edge of Manhattan. Colbert said his goal was to develop a golf complex where people could learn to play the game he loves, students could learn to manage the golf business, and environmental research could be conducted to improve the golf course industry.
The course will include a youth golf academy, living laboratory, Golf Course Superintendent Association of America-KSU educational program, driving range, clubhouse and a nine-hole, parthree training course that will be home to the Kansas State golf teams.
Golf tour wants disabled golfer off course
Casey Martin case reaches appellate court
The Associated Press
PORTLAND, Ore. — PGA Tour lawyers tried to overturn Casey Martin's golf cart ruling yesterday, saying the decision allowing the disabled pro to ride is as fundamental a change to the game as taking the dribble out of basketball.
"The walking rule is a substantial rule, expressly designed to inject stress and fatigue, and impact the outcome of the game," PGA Tour attorney Andrew Hurwitz told a three-judge panel of the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals. "In an elite athletic competition, certain rules must apply equally to everyone."
Hurwitz added that walking in golfing "determines how players must go from shot to shot, just as the dribbling rule determines how basketball players must go down the court."
Martin, who has a circulatory disorder in his right leg that makes it painful for him to walk long distances, won the last year to ride on
tour according to the Americans with Disabilities Act, which bars discrimination against the disabled in the workplace, public accommodations and services.
Martin's attorney contended that the PGA, whether it liked it or not, was subject to the ADA, and he scoffed at the suggestion that walking was a necessary part of playing golf.
"Casey Martin doesn't want to be judged by a lesser skill level than anyone else in competition, but just don't come up with this walking rule, which was born out of tradition," attorney Roy Reardon said.
Reardon maintained that riding over the course gave Martin no advantage.
"Stress is what causes golfers to wear down, not walking up and down hills," he told the panel. "They're not doing that at any speed. Stress is the mental stress, the same kind of mental stress Casey Martin suffers."
Martin limped into court early sporting a suntan and a navy blazer and sat quietly, flanked by his brother and his father.
The San Francisco-based appeals court was not corrupted to make for months.
the cart threatens the essence of the centuries-old sport by giving an unfair advantage to one golfer, reasoning which Martin rejected.
"It makes it easier for them, so they don't have to go through this every time someone with a physical problem needs an accommodation." he said.
If Martin has had an advantage, it hasn't been reflected on the golf course.
Since the ruling, Martin's game has waned. After a top-10 finish four weeks ago, he has missed the cut in his last three tournaments.
The PGA's appeal is based on the argument that
In January, Martin missed the cut at the Nike Lakeland Classic, an event he won in 1998, and finished 14th in his next tournament. After missing yet another cut, he took a month off and returned in March.
His latest success was a seventh-place tie good for $11,250 at the Nike Louisiana Open, but he followed that up with three missed cuts, culminating in last week's cut at the Nike Upstate Classic in Greenville, S.C.
Still, the 26-year-old pro said he had a lot of golf left to play.
"I feel I'm playing well," he said as he left court. "My leg hasn't been great, but I'm still able to play."

Cubs defeat Rockies late in ninth
CHICAGO — Mickey Morandini's shallow ninth-inning fly fell in for a game-winning single yesterday as the Chicago Cubs blew a six-run lead, then rallied twice and beat the Colorado Rockies 13-12 on a wild and windy day at Wriele Field.

ESPN sues baseball about broadcast rights
The Associated Press
NEW YORK—ESPN's 10th season of baseball could be its last because of a conflict with NFL games.
ESPN sued major-league baseball in federal court yesterday to try to prevent termination of the network's regular-season contract, which has three years to run.
For the second straight season, baseball is refusing to allow the network to switch three Sunday night games in September to ESPN2 and run NFL games on the bigger-audience ESPN.
"Baseball has attempted to extort hundreds of million of dollars of economic concessions as the 'price' for its consent," ESPN said in a 30-page complaint.
Paul Beeston, the chief aide to commissioner Bud Selig, sent ESPN a letter April 21 saying the sport was terminating its $88 million-a-year deal with the network after this season.
ESPN asked for an injunction preventing baseball from ending the deal, an unspecified amount of money and a declaratory judgment forcing baseball to grant permission to switch the three telecasts.
The case was assigned to U.S. District Judge Shira A. Scheindlin.
In a statement released yesterday Beeston said baseball "regrets that it was forced to terminate its contract with ESPN at the end of the season. We have had a good relationship with ESPN throughout this decade, and we still cling to hopes that it will continue into the next."
ESPN wants to make the switch to accommodate its $4.8 billion deal with the NFL. ESPN is available to about 76.2 million homes, while ESPN2 is available in 64.5 million.
Last year, baseball officials blocked the switch and, amid threats of legal action by both sides, the broadcast rights were turned back to the teams involved. ESPN said baseball demanded about $30 million in financial concessions as a condition for giving its approval.
Viewers wound up missing Cal Ripken end his record consecutive games streak and one of Mark McGwire's contests as he chased and passed Roger Maris' home run record.
When ESPN and baseball turned their attention to the matter in January, the network said the sport asked for an additional $350 million for 1999-2002 plus a two-year extension at an annual threefold increase
compared to the rights fee agreed to in 2002.
"We are talking about nine hours of programming in the course of the almost 500 hours of dedicated MLB coverage we provide each year." said ESPN president George Bodenheimer. "It's outrageous for baseball to attempt to terminate its agreement with ESPN."
According to ESPN, the contract states that up to 10 baseball games each season can be pre-empted for "events of significant interest".
However, baseball claims that ESPN is prohibited from pre-empting a game without its approval.
That condition cannot be "unreasonably withheld," but baseball officials were unwilling to grant permission last year because they refused to take a back seat for the NFL during pennant races.
ESPN said baseball agreed to move games to ESPN2 in the past it did so last May to accommodate the NHL playoffs and will do it again for the NHL playoffs on June 2.
The cable network also said the sport has allowed games to be moved for World Cup soccer, U.S. Open and U.S. Senior Open golf, the College World Series and a Busch auto race.
But baseball wouldn't allow it last September — ESPN's first year with the entire NFL Sunday night package.
"Now, they are willing to put the entire relationship at risk over three games that are the lowest rated every single year," said Dick Glover, ESPN's executive vice president of programming.
September baseball games on ESPN averaged a 1.7 rating in 1997, about a quarter of the NFL's average in the same time slots last year. A cable rating point equals 994,000 homes.
ESPN's deal, worth about $88 million a year, was originally slated for 1996-2000. The regular-season contract was extended through 2002. Glover said baseball had offered to renegotiate the deal for about $250 million a season.
The dispute doesn't affect a separate four-year postseason contract, which runs through 2000.
This year's conflicting games are scheduled for Sept. 12, 19 and 26, and two involve the team owned by Selig's family — the Milwaukee Brewers. The games are Milwaukee at Colorado, San Francisco at San Diego and Houston at Milwaukee.

Crash kills 2; Apache training to continue
(USPS 650-640)
The Associated Press
TIRANA, Albania — The U.S. Army won't disrupt its plans to send Apache helicopters into combat against Serb forces, despite a crash in Albania's mountains yesterday that killed two American aviators and brought NATO's first fatalities in its campaign against Yugoslavia.
The crash, during nighttime training in rugged northeastern Albania, was the second in nine days involving one of the 24 heavily armed anti-tank Apaches deployed in Albania. They are preparing for combat missions against Yugoslav forces, accused of driving nearly 700,000 ethnic Albanians out of the neighboring Kosovo province.
Training will proceed, and the Army will stick to its still-secret schedule for deploying the helicopters in combat, said Lt. Col.
Garrie Dorman, a representative of the task force that includes the Anaches.
The U.S. military identified the two army aviators as Chief Warrant Officer 3 David A. Gibbs, 38, of Ohio, and Chief Warrant Officer 2 Kevin L. Reichert, 28, of Wisconsin.
The cause of the crash was under investigation, but the Army said there were no indications of hostile fire.
Dornan said the helicopter crashed in remote, rugged, mountainous terrain at 1:30 a.m. local time, 45 miles northeast of Tirana's airport.
The pilot and co-pilot/gunner were dead when the first rescue team arrived within 15 minutes of the crash. Dornan said.
Reichert, who grew up in northwestern Wisconsin, had been living in Germany with his wife, their daughter and two sons.
Gibbs' hometown was not identified by
the military.
President Clinton, speaking to American troops at a base in Germany, lamented the loss of "two brave Americans."
"We grieve with their families and pray for them." Clinton said.
In a ceremony at Tirana airport, pall bearers from the dead aviators' unit carried the two caskets past about 300 soldiers and honor guards onto a C-17 transport plane, the hum of the engine drowning out the strains of The Star-Spangled Banner.
The Apache training has been deliberately rigorous in order to prepare the pilots for combat in Kosovo.
Their bodies were to be flown to Ramstein Air Base in Germany last night and transferred to a nearby U.S. military hospital before being returned to the United States, the military said.
"We are flying under total blackout conditions. We are flying in difficult terrain." Dornan said. "You cannot eliminate risk from this business. ... We are preparing for a combat operation, not a peacekeeping operation."
Last week, another Apache crashed in flames, also during a nighttime training mission in Albania. Its crewmen escaped with cuts and bruises.
Since 1985, when the Army began using the Apache, there have been 50 severe crashes and 14 fatalities, including the two latest deaths.
The $14.5 million Apaches have sighting and night-vision equipment that permits operation in the dark or in bad weather, but are vulnerable to ground fire because they stay low and fly relatively slowly.
The Apache was first used in 1899 in Panama, and flew in Iraq for the Desert Storm conflict as well as in Bosnia.

THE REFLEXION OF THE SEA
From Memorial Stadium's east stands you can see the 13 permanent theater seats in the front of the suite, the high-bar stool tables and the sink in the rear. On one side of these under-construction suites will be upholstered sitting areas where you can watch either of the televisions that will be mounted on the walls.
It's nothing more than a construction site now, but if you squint a bit you can begin to see it take shape.
The color scheme, crimson and blue, of course, will roar "Go Jayhawks!" in order to create an atmosphere perfect for rooting on the 'Hawks in style and luxury.
Out of the big picture windows that will separate these suites from the rest of Memorial Stadium, far below and a world away, will sit the common Kansas fans and - still farther below - a Kansas football game will unfold.

Commission's complaints rulings remain the same
By Nadia Mustafa
nmustafa@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
The elections commission's rulings on Student Senate election complaints were unchanged last night at an open revoting session attended by two students.
Upon suggestion from the Douglas County Counsel Wint Winter to comply with the Kansas Open Meetings Act, the commission's five-member hearing board publicly revoted on 19 complaints it previously voted on at a meeting on April 19.
But the board did not divulge the complaints' details or the involved parties. It identified each complaint only by a random number and the section of the elections code allegedly violated.
Partha Mazumdar, graduate senator and one of the students in attendance, said the board might as well have conducted its votes in a closed session because no one from the public knew the contents of the complaints.
Mazumdar said because the board's rulings and punishments did not appear on students' academic records, the board should discuss details of complaints. He said he didn't think the elections complaints were covered by the Buckley Amendment, which prohibits universities that release student records from receiving federal funds.
Before the board voted, it discussed Winter's legal opinion and recommendations in his letter stating that the board violated the act by voting in a closed session and not formally moving to deliberate in a closed session.
Jennifer Wamelink, assistant director of student housing, and Terry Bruce, hearing board chair, concluded during the meeting that Winter's suggestions were "stupid."
In his letter, Winter had recommended that the board revote and sign a consent agreement that the commission would not violate the act in the future.
Jennifer Watkins, elections commissioner, said the commission would not sign an agreement until University General Counsel Victoria Thomas approved it. Watkins said she didn't know if this year's commission could sign a document that would bind future commissions.
She said although the board's rulings were unchanged, last night's session allowed the board to discuss Winter's recommendations and learn the correct procedure. She said the board did not reveal the complaints' details because it wanted to protect students' rights.
"We are bound under the Buckley Amendment." Watkins said. "This is not a debate; it's not open to public opinion. This is a punishment phase."
Aaron Profitt, Overland Park sophomore, said he attended the session to make sure the board's rulings did not change because it did not hear new evidence.
"The farcical part of it is watching them try to juggle the

Student dies in one-car accident on Turnpike

Kansan staff writers
Dianne Haake was on the Kansas Turnpike seven miles east of Lawrence when her 1994 Chevrolet Camaro slid off the road.
A University of Kansas student who died Tuesday morning will be missed by her co-workers and classmates.
She hit a mud embankment, and her car came to a halt facing the wrong direction in the ditch at about 10:15 a.m., said Master Trooper Mike Hover of the Kansas Highway Patrol.
Haake had serious internal injuries and died in the ambulance on the way to Lawrence Memorial Hospital.
nesses to the accident, and no other vehicles were involved. The accident was reported by a man who drove by after it occurred.
Hover said the exact cause of the accident had not been determined.
Hover said that there were no wif-
"It was raining at the time," he said. "It is possible that speed was a factor."
Haake was not wearing a seat belt, Hover said.
Haake was a 21-year-old College of Liberal Arts and Sciences sophomore in pre-journalism from Leawood.
Jamie Weber, manager at Wheatfield's Bakery, 904 Vermont St., where Haake had worked for two years, said that Haake was planning to transfer to Arizona State University in Tempe,
Ariz., this fall to pursue a journalism degree.
Weber said that Haake was a special individual that would be missed.
"She was vivacious," he said. "She lit up the room every time she came in. There was nobody like her. Dianne was a kindred spirit."
Classmates said that they were saddened to learn of Haake's death.
"She was nice and a lot of fun," said Tory Macfarlane, Lawrence freshman, who was in Haake's Spanish class this semester.
A spokesperson at the Shawnee County Coroner's Office in Topeka, said that Haake's family had not yet made arrangements for funeral services.

Sexual battery suspects subject of police search
Police are looking for two men suspected of aggravated sexual battery and criminal restraint in connection with a report filed by a KU student on April 29, said Officer Dave Anderson of the Lawrence Police department.
The student told police that she was driving around in the Clinton Lake area between 10:30 and 11 a.m. April 23 when two men in a newer-model, full-size Chevrolet pickup used their vehicle to trap her on the Rock creek boat ramp. Anderson said.
"The two males got out of their car and accosted her," Anderson said.
The student described the driver of the pickup as a 5-foot-10 white male with brown hair wearing a dark blue windbreaker, a white shirt and blue jeans.
She described the passenger as being a 5-foot-7 white male with a freckle above his left eye, yellow teeth and very short hair. He was wearing a blue baseball cap and blue sweatshirt with blue jeans.
Undersheriff Kenneth Massey of the Douglas County Sheriff's Office said that they had no leads in the case. Anyone with information on the case can call Crimesatppers at 843-TIPS.
Police cite KU student for false drivers license
A KU student was given a notice to appear in court after a police officer found him in possession of a possible fake driver's license at 11:32 p.m. Tuesday at The Hawk, 1340 Ohio St., said Officer Dave Anderson of the Lawrence Police department.
The officer observed the student sitting at a table with a cup of beer directly in front of him and asked to see his driver's license. At first the student said he had left it in the car, but when the officer asked him how he got in the bar if he had no identification the student produced what appeared to be a false Oklahoma driver's license, Anderson said.

University ceramics sale will benefit department
The KU ceramics department is having its second annual spring sale from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. today on the third floor of the Art and Design Building.
Both functional and sculptural ceramic pieces made by KU students will be for sale, and all proceeds will go to the ceramics department to use to pay for visiting artists, new equipment and scholarships.
Judy Arnold, Leavenworth junior, said that the ceramics department had raised between $4,000 and $5,000 in
its last two sales. The last sale was a holiday sale in December.
Arnold thought there would be something for everyone at the sale.
"There are so many ways to express yourself in clay," she said.
Other student art will be exhibited,
but they will be without the price tags.
One such piece includes two ladies drinking coffee and chatting atop an enormous piece of pie.

Wichita troops called to help in NATO effort
WICHTA — About 80 aircraft maintenance men and women have left McConnell Air Force base to participate in Operation Allied Force.
They're unsure about their return date. They have concerns for the welfare of their families and they know the dangers involved.
Still, they're enthusiastic about the mission.
In one of the final briefings before they left Tuesday night, the airmen could be heard hollowing and clapping
"It's just like a football game," said Lt. Fred Rogero, 22nd Air Refuelling Wing Commander. "When it's game time, they're ready to go."
The mood of the personnel appeared upbeat shortly before they filed into their team plane — a C-141 aircraft. Roggero said he offered encouraging words to them about the mission.
"Don't be confused, you have a big role in this operation. If we've got broken airpli, nes, they're not flying, we're not doing the operation," he told them.
When they'll be coming back is unknown. They were told they would be overseas for an indefinite amount of time. They also don't know — or wouldn't reveal — where they're going.
The deployments brought the total of McConnell personnel called into action to about 500.
Kosovo refugees arrive await placement in U.S.
FORT DIX, N.J. — Leaving their warragged homeland for a new life in America, the first group of Koscov refugees arrived yesterday at a New Jersey military base, where they will stay for a few weeks before being placed in homes around the country.
"The goal here is to provide a welcoming environment, which is comfortable," said Lavinia Limon, director of the Office of Refugee Settlement for the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.
The refugees — 249 adults, 195 children ranging in age from 3 to 18 and nine infants — left a crowded, dirty camp in Macedonia aboard a chartered Boeing 747 and landed at McGuire Air Force base.
First lady Hillary Rodham Clinton was expected to welcome the refugees.
Most of the 20,000 refugees the United States has agreed to accept will be placed with sponsoring families or relatives upon arrival. The group arriving at Fort Dix from Macedonia were deemed at special risk because they had no family members available to help them or were staying in unstable areas.
The refugees will undergo preliminary screening by immigration officials, receive photo identification badges and get dormitory assignments. Albanian-speaking mental health and trauma counselors also will be available.
Another 400 refugees are expected to arrive at Fort Dix on Friday, and 100 refugees are expected to fly into New York's Kennedy Airport Saturday.
Officials expect to move about 2,000 refugees per week through Fort Dix and Kennedy and plan to eventually phase out entry through Fort Dix.
Support for gun control up since Littleton deaths
WASHINGTON — Support for gun control jumped in the week after the high school shootings in Colorado, according to an Associated Press poll, with a majority of Americans saying tougher gun laws are the most effective way to stem violence.
That 51 percent figure is up 9 percentage points from just before the deaths at the school. Also, 40 percent of adults said parents should face charges if a child younger than 18 commits a crime with a gun.
ICR of Media. Pa., conducted one poll in the four days before the April 20 rampage. Some of the questions were repeated in an April 28 - May 2 poll, allowing the impact of the shootings on the public to be measured.
Before the school shootings, 47 percent said better enforcement of existing laws was the way to limit gun violence, while 42 percent said tougher gun laws would be more effective. After the shootings, 51 percent said tougher gun laws would be more effective, while 39 percent said better enforcement.
A similar increase was found when people were asked whether they favored or opposed stricter gun-control laws. In the first poll, 55 percent were in favor and 40 percent were opposed. The second poll found 63 percent in favor and 31 percent opposed.

KU elections commission revoted on complaints

Buckley Amendment and the Open Meetings Act." Profit said. "On the whole, it's good to have open meetings. But it's very amusing that only three people showed up."
"I'm concerned that issues like this are personal to students," he said. "But you have to balance that against the public's desire to know if their elected officials are doing what is in their best interests. It's a matter of principle."
Bruce said he thought the act was designed to apply to policy-making bodies, not the commission's hearing board. He said he hoped future commissions would be able to better balance the state law and fears of violating the Buckley Amendment.
"The county attorney's decision is just getting the ball rolling." Bruce said. "Next year, students who commit violations will have a better idea of what process they're going up against."
Yesterday, Mazumdar submitted a letter to the commission about his elections complaint alleging that the YOU coalition was responsible for creating and distributing fliers on campus that claimed Delta Force was anti-greek. The board again decided it did not have enough evidence to rule on Mazumdar's complaint.
In the letter, Mazumdar proposed when the commission revoted, it should agree that the flier was offensive and unethical, that it was the antithesis of what a free and fair election should offer, and that it may have unjustly influenced the election.
He also suggested that the commission recommend to the dean of students that if the individuals who created the flier were found, they be disciplined according to the University's rules on non-academic misconduct. In addition, he said, the commission should recommend to next year's commission that such behavior shouldn't be tolerated and that it should consider adopting a zero-tolerance policy for such fliers.
While in a temporary closed deliberative session last night, the board dismissed Mazudar's proposal because it concluded that his recommendations were already in the elections code.
"We did agree that the flier was offensive and should not have been printed, especially if it was printed by one coalition," Watkins said. "But the code already states that, so we didn't think it was relevant to restate it."
Mazumdar said he was glad the board considered his proposal, but that he was sad about its decision.
"This annual festival of libel has to end," he said. "They're going to do it again next year."

Students happy with Watkins
Survey indicates students satisfied with health service
By T.J. Johnson
johnson@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
During March, Watkins Memorial Health Center had students fill out questionnaires about every aspect of their visits, from the availability of parking at the health center to the sensitivity with which the health center staff treated them.
The results of that survey were compiled and analyzed by the Student Health Advisory Board, and according the former chair of SHAB, Jordan McKee, the results were very positive.
"This has been the first real comprehensive survey that has been done in the past few years," McKee said. "We had about 330 responses, and for the most part everyone was fairly satisfied."
Jim Boyle, interim director at Watkins, said that he was pleased with the high levels of student satisfaction seen in the survey responses.
"One of our goals is to provide a good service to students, so it is gratifying
to see that we are on the right track." Bovle said.
The questions on the survey were developed by SHAB and other students. They asked students basic questions about the services offered at Watkins, as well as much more specific questions about particular departments and issues at the health center.
Boyle and McKee said the Watkins' staff and administration had no involvement with the survey or its questions.
McKee said that although most students responded positively, some respondents had particular issues that they felt could be improved.
Among the issues students felt needed to be addressed were parking at the health center, the possibility of having campus bus stops at Watkins, and providing more information to students about the services offered there. McKee said.
"There were a lot of suggestions for more information at orientation and more information in the residence halls," McKee said. "There were some things that, out of the 330 respondents, a majority of the people didn't know about a specific service."
kins. He said that there were some possible solutions to the problem being considered.
Boyle said that parking was always a problem that came up when discussing student concerns with Wat-
McKee said he thought that administrators of Watkins would take into account the issues raised in the survey when they began working with next year's SHAB in the fall.
"Usually, Watkins administration is real come to suggestions." McKee said.
He said that one particular issue addressed in the survey questions was whether students were treated differently while at Watkins based on ethnicity or any other personal factor.
"We looked at the demographics to see if there were any differences as far as sexual orientation, race or ethnicity or any other category," McKee said. "We got a real nice cross section."
He said that the survey answers indicated that Watkins had done a good job of treating all patients equally.
Boyle also said that one of the problems sometimes brought up in student surveys of Watkins was the time students had to wait to be treated. He said that the survey results indicated that students who knew about and utilized the health center's appointment times were much more pleased with the amount of time they had to wait.

City Commission aims for public transportation
By Heather Woodward
hwoodward@kanson.com
Kansas staff writer
No. 1 priority — set up a fixed-route citywide bus system.
"One of our action statements was to coordinate a citywide bus system with KU on Wheels," said Commissioner Mike Rundle. "All of us are aware that we need to work with the state legislature to remove the restrictions from the funding possibilities."
The Lawrence City Commission met for two hours yesterday to exchange ideas and establish a unified goal statement. All five commissioners said creating public transportation was one of their objectives for their terms in office.
City Commission
Student fees pay for KU on Wheels, but a Kansas legal statute does not allow the use of student fees for programs that serve non-students. Commissioners decided to dedicate the first available study session to public transportation and begin discussing a budget in June.
Each commissioner could name three goals as high priority, three as medium priority and three as low priority. Then based on each goal's point total, a priority list was created.
Maintaining a viable downtown, reviewing
zoning regulations, enhancing the livability of neighborhoods and improving the traffic flow were also high-priority goals.
Including the Lawrence Arts Center in the Downtown 2000 project, 900 New Hampshire St., was one of the actions the commission plans to take as part of maintaining a strong downtown district.
Structured maintenance of the brick roads and stone curbs on some Lawrence streets was one of the commission's steps in improving the quality of life in local neighborhoods.
Commissioner David Dunfield said the commission supported preserving the city's history and might create a downtown conservation district.
taking a closer look at commuter bike paths is a goal that Dunfield said he brought up at the meeting.
"The city has done a good job addressing the recreation aspect of biking," Dunfield said. "But we have not bided a good job of looking at commuter bike paths, like for people who ride their bikes to work."
Dunfield was also interested in looking at alternative ways to handle waste water. The commission talked about the possibility of decentralizing the current waste water treatment plant, Black & Veach, and building several smaller plants around town.
Rundle said there was more crossover between commissioners' goals than he had expected.

'April in Akron' examines dark side of male bonding

A bird cage full of stripped Barbies. An empty fish tank full of liquor bottles. A naked mannequin torso adorned with a pink lei.
Where are you at?
In a living room that witnesses two days of booze, sex talk, disco music, insults and deep secrets. The living room where five males learn the truth.
KU graduate student Dan Kulmala takes male bonding to a new level in his play "April in Akron," which will open at 8 tonight at the Lawrence Community Theatre. 1501 New Hampshire St.
The English Alternative Theater is presenting the play and is directed by Paul Lim. associate professor of English.
The play begins with four roommates
and a friend preparing for a wild party in their disheveled apartment. While gathering booze and blowing up balloons, the characters recount sexual experiences in attempt to prepare the youngest roommate for his night's quest — to have sex
The second act takes place the morning after. Among scattered beer cans, a half-eaten box of Kentucky Fried Chicken and a stack of porn magazines, the characters try to recreate the night before.
On the outside, the play has a boys-will-be-boys lightness to it. But as the story unfolds, the darker side of male bonding and manhood emerge.
Dan Kulmala described reactions to a

staged reading of the play.
"Women were disturbed and shocked—and that's the appropriate response," he said. "The males watching could identify with the male characters but at the same time they felt a lot of shame."
Obscenities and crudeness run rampant throughout the play but Byron Myrick, who plays, J.D., a manipulative roommate, said that was one of the things that made the script strong.
Myrick said homophobia and women bashing as a few of the controversial themes. However, he thought the content could appeal to a wide range of people.
"Nowadays, people who come to see theater should know the pieces are not 'Alice in Wonderland,' " Myrick said. "They are one disaster or human tragedy after the next. People should try to absorb it and take it for what it is—an art piece."
Kulmala, who wrote the play during the course of about a year and a half, said that it was written because of his dissatisfaction with plays that revolved around women and minorities.
"Sometimes these plays weren't addressing the people they needed to — which was the aggressor," he said.
Kulmala has been hanging around the rehearsals since early April and has seen the transformation of his play from paper to the stage.
"Some things I envisioned differently but so far this has been a pleasurable surprise," he said.
"April in Akron" will be presented at 8 tonight, tomorrow and Saturday, and at 2:30 p.m. Sunday at the Lawrence Community Theatre. Tickets are $5 and can be reserved by calling 864-3642.

Soldiers' release act of goodwill should not end NATO bombing
With an end to the fighting in Kosovo not yet in sight, the recent release of three U.S. soldiers after one month in Yugoslavian custody has been the only promising development since the bombing campaign began. Yet, this supposed act of goodwill on behalf of Yugoslav President Slobodan Milosevic should be warily considered.
Spc. Steven Gonzales and Staff Sgts. Christopher Stone and Andrew Ramirez were taken captive March 31 while patrolling the Yugoslav-Macedonia border as part of a peacekeeping mission, seven days after NATO launched its bombing campaign in Yugoslavia. Sunday, the soldiers were finally released, thanks in part to the Rev. Jesse Jackson's
The United States should question Milosevic's motives, thank him for prisoners lives.
intervention, which did not have the White House's blessing.
The government continues to bomb relentlessly its targets in Yugoslavia despite the soldiers' release. Given that Milosevic shows no signs of leaving Kosovo alone, the release does not yet warrant a cease-fire.
Milosevic's motives in letting the prisoners walk free seem dubious. He is a vicious tyrant who has repeatedly shown his unwillingness to cooperate with negotiators. This alleged gesture of goodwill is
more likely a ploy to throw egg on the face of an administration that would not sanction Jackson's visit.
The simple truth is, before negotiations can take place, Milosevic must pull his troops out of Kosovo and cease his ruthless campaign of ethnic cleansing. If NATO bombings were to cease before that happened, it would result in the unimpeded slaughter of thousands of Kosovars.
These soldiers are lucky to be alive; indeed, we should be thankful that no further harm was done to them. None the less, their newfound freedom should not be viewed as the catalyst for ending the bombings right away. There is still a long, hard road to peace in Kosovo.

SUA's Day on the Hill a sunny success
Despite budget constraints, Student Union Activities and all others involved put together a successful and entertaining Day on the Hill.
Because of earlier guests such as Paula Poundstone and Archbishop Tutu, SUA fell under abnormal financial constraints that could have put a serious dent in the success of Day on the Hill, if not abolished it altogether.
Even with these constraints, there were several entertaining bands that were present for the free concert, with Hum as the headliner. Other bands included Frogpond, Panel Donor and Son
Despite financial constraints and questions of interest, annual concert entertains.
Venezuela.
Before this year's event, there had been doubts about whether the concert would end this year, its eleventh. But, given the positive feedback, the event is now virtually guaranteed to continue.
The weather also was good and contributed to the event's success. The good weather and music brought out all sorts of spectators
— high school and KU students, and adults were in attendance. Concert-goers even brought their dogs as people lounged on their blankets and lawn chairs to enjoy the good weather and music.
The atmosphere is much of what makes events such as Day on the Hill successful and beneficial to the University of Kansas — it truly brings out the whole Lawrence community.
With all of the hard work that went into the Day on the Hill, there are many pats on the back that should be given out. Hopefully, their reward will be a tradition of the concert for years to come.

Students should relive easy summer pleasures

Summer always has meant sweaty days and a heavy sun, warm breezes at night and birds singing in the morning. I hon- number the last time summer
Perspective
Somewhere, perhaps deep in our memories are days like the Country Time Lemonade commercials, where meandering along on bikes and dirt roads is reality
In the world most of us live in as college students, these days are beyond recall they can become unfathomable.
Just a day.
Face it, most students right now are focused on next week with a determined eye. They may or may not know from experience that six days of finals can make or break a little number that will be attached to your name for good.
Some are driven by that number and allow their grade point average to determine their self-worth. These are the people who have forgotten the beauty and joy in discovering something for the sake of discovery.
Some students are driven to define their self-worth by conquering awards invented for those who have forgotten the worth within friendship, a light chat and a good nap.
Finals week, for them, may mean a time to wrap up meetings, and make preparations for the coming year.
Some of us are lazy and have forgotten that boredom is a self-inflicted disease. As the days grow warm and the world turns green, finals approach and somehow become a nuisance to an already empty schedule.
The idea of a sweaty summer filled with laughter and play must seem a cruel suggestion to those of us who will be indoors for three months flipping pancakes or licking envelopes for just more than minimum wage.
Sometimes we miss the days gone by, but mostly, aren't we all focused on the future — where we'll be, where we'll go, who we'll be with? And we miss the summer sun, the playing and the warm night air.
For some, it also means going home, working to earn next year's tuition, studying abroad, internships or summer school.
For almost all of us right now, summer simply means the end of this semester.
We don't have time for these things, after all.
But maybe you could try remembering all the things you have accomplished during previous summers.
Maybe you learned to ride a bike.
Remember piano lessons? T-ball?
(Maybe you gardened, shot hoops, swam, enjoyed your brothers and sisters, saw your mom and dad.
Remember piano lessons. 1-oat.
Forget the grade card that will eventually invade your mailbox. Forget the 38-hour weeks. Forget the summer school.
Summer is a time to remember the beauty of the world we're in and remember the sense of discovery within us that keeps us young.
For those of you graduating, being a grown-up might be tough, but remember the blessings of being childlike.
Continue to discover the world. Look in awe at anthills and summer sunsets. Don't for a second think that the world won't surprise you. If it fails to, you may not be looking hard enough.
Put aside the worries that are handed to you in the forms of tests, meetings and work. Winter has ended, and the world is new
Winter has ended, and the weather is warm.
Summer is coming, and it is bound to be full of sweaty days, warm breezes at night and birds singing in the morning.

Good things don't always come to those who wait
Another pair of semesters have come and nearly gone. This will be the fourth time for me, and every year it gets harder to make it through that last week.
Keith Burner
ooinion @ kansan.com
But, because many students try to make it through the year using academic bulimia — party binging followed by study purging and because this method seems to work for them during the slower, less stressful first part of the semester, many students don't realize how close the end is or how much they still have to do.
Finals, financial aid,
papers put off far too long,
books left half-read and
laundry left half-done are
sure signs that the last week of the academic year is here. Add to those things the stress of preparing to uproot yourself for the summer and planning next year's living arrangements — and then replanning them when your "friends" give you the shaft and you've got a full-blown
A. G.
Students need to learn that good things don't come necessarily to those who wait, although waiting for the summer to partake in week-long parties — instead of doing it in March — isn't a bad idea.
So, to all you partying procrastinators: It's almost the end! You have a lot to do!
Here's last year's version of the yearly conversation:
I'm reminded of the problem of procrastination every year when I talk to friends who are completely oblivious of those two facts.
case of the I-wish-it-were-summertime blues. Most students handle this stress with about as much grace as a beaver freeing itself from a steel trap — cramming, taking caffeine through an IV and staying up for a week without changing clothes. This trap, which students gnaw their legs off to escape, is the trap of procrastination.
I asked, "Hey Dick, can I borrow a pen?"
"Sure, buddy," he replied. "Whatcha work
We shouldn't be too judgmental toward those procrastinating party animals in our midst, though. They're just experiencing certain aspects of life that are better experienced during college than afterwards. After all, there is more to college than just academics. Some people just need to learn to not make it too much more.
Burner is a Leon senior in journalism.
But the beautiful thing about being a student is that it's still not too late to change behavior. Time never stops, so everyone will make it to the summer — albeit some minus a leg, and some carrying around a trap.
And I'm pretty sure that Dick will get his stuff done. He's a smart guy, or at least he was before he pickled his brain, and we've been through this before — about the same time last year.
"Just some financial aid stuff," I said.
"God! I can't believe I waited until the last week of the semester to do this. How's your stuff going?"
Dick, who had dedicated last week to sleeping, drinking and vomiting, calmly replied, "AAAAAAHHHHHH," sprinted across the room to his bag, rummaged through it for some papers, gazed at them in wonderment, shot a wide-eyed, psychotic glance at his calendar, which was still on March, made a disgusting gurgling sound, burped up some beer foam and fainted.
ing on?"
I laughed. Dick faints too much.
This may sound far-fetched, but it's true. Question one of your heavily partying friends, you'll see. You can even have some fun with it; I know I do. Some might call it sadistic, though.
For people such as Dick, time is a cruel trickster that makes entire months disappear and makes today Monday and tomorrow Friday, with no indication of where the rest of the week went.
It's a sad fact that some students just don't see the end of the year coming until finals week whacks them on the head, or if a friend brings it up first. See, it's not sadism; it's friendship. Still pretty fun, though.
No matter. It makes your workload seem easier, at least compared to theirs.

Parking department needs accountability
I have lived in Jayhawker Towers for three years and have had the experience of finding parking for that long, be it in my car or someone else's. I think that this year has been the best so far in regards to the amount of parking spaces here.
The problem? The parking department doesn't adhere to its own guidelines regarding parking signs. Outside of each Towers lot there is a white sign which reads, "JT Lot...24 hours restricted."
who get paid to ticket our cars earn that paycheck. C'mon, patrollers. Get out there and ticket those people without the white sticker that you all wanted to make us use this year. I promise, when that happens, I won't have anymore complaints for you.
This is where the problem lies. Let's hold the Parking Department responsible for the signs and regulations they post. Let's make those people

Robotic arm to lend a hand at KU
By Matt Cox
Special to the Kansan
A breakthrough in robotic technology is coming soon to the KU computer science department.
The Mitsubishi PA-10, a multisensory robotic arm, has the ability to perform many applications better than the scope and range of the robots currently used for the University of Kansas' computer science programs.
The PA-10 features a robotic arm with seven degrees of movement consisting of four rotation cups and three pivot joints, exactly like a human arm. It will be a major part of the robotic project financed by the National Science foundation.
The robot, which will be constructed by members of the EECS department, will have the capacity for vision, using normal sonar similar to a bat, and voice recognition.
While the hardware may intrigue computer science students, the professors' plans for
the robot lie in its program.
"Our real interest is to study the software," said Frank Brown, computer science professor.
Programming robots to do certain tasks is the main focus in Brown's Artificial Intelligence class.
The students now work with a robot called "Scout" from Nomadic Technologies. They program it to perform tasks that are responsive to movement and distance.
Brown said that the new robot would bring many new possibilities to students and professors far beyond that of "Scout."
"It will introduce much more advanced AI," Brown said, referring to the new robot's effect on the Artificial Intelligence students.
This advanced system would allow for more complicated programming and a more complicated output from the robot, he said.
For example, the "Scout" might learn to turn right when it sees an
ashtray 100 centimeters away. In contrast, the PA-10 could, for example, learn to pick up a soda can when it sees a person three feet away wearing a red shirt and saying, "Joe is cool."
Brown said that the robot's potential would extend beyond the classroom. He said that 40 percent of his job was research. One of the biggest attractions to the new technology is the attraction to the KU faculty. They would be give the opportunity to study the concept of "ambiguity resolution."
Brown said using this program, the robot would attempt to understand what was "behind a statement." Not only would the robot hear a sentence from a person, but it also would take into account the person's appearance, vocal emphasis and surroundings to determine what the person was really saving.
This level of technology is something that can't be programmed in a semester. He predicted that developing this sort of program would take at least 10 years to
develop the mixture of vision, syntax and linguistic program. But, Brown said, it would be worth the time and research.
Another professor is looking forward to his part in the project.
He said that studying and advancing image analysis for the new robot would be fun.
"It's a fascinating idea and methodology for studying intelligence," Brown said.
The programs and concepts not only help them enjoy the work, but also help them study it.
"My job is to make the robot have eyes," said John Gauch, assistant professor for the EECS department.
The program would also bring the science world one step closer to creating a machine that could think independently like a human. While many philosophers and scientists said that this would be impossible, Brown disagreed.
"Our job is not to figure out what we can't do, but rather what we can." he said.

New sculptures popping up downtown
By Derek Prater
Special to the Kansan
Spring brings new leaves and new life on Lawrence streets. Downtown, spring means a new crop of outdoor sculptures.
Ten new sculptures from across the country have popped up downtown, replacing work from last year's Outdoor Sculpture Exhibition.
Lawrence Arts Commissioner Dan Sabatini said that from the feedback he'd had so far, this year's group was one of the best.
"This collection really holds together well with both diversity and a common theme," said Sabatini, who heads the architectural firm Sabatini and Associates.
The sculptures range in style from Anne Wienholt's "3/4 Length Figure," a bronze female nude, to Jason Lumetta's "Endless Toilets," a 12-foot tall ceramic work depicting toilers stacked bowl to bowl. "Organization of Profanity," a metal amalgamation of painted geometric forms by Joseph Kinnebrew, is the most massive work, weighing in at 900 pounds.
The 12th-annual Outdoor Sculpture Exhibition is the brainchild of Jim Patti who, with the heap of the Parks and Forestry
NEW SCULPTURES

Department and the Facility Maintenance Department, is in the laborious process of installing the new sculptures.
Most of the works arrived in Lawrence two weeks ago, but Patti said that it would take awhile before they were all settled on the sidewalks of Massachusetts Street and around downtown public buildings.
The exhibition is financed by the Lawrence Arts Commission.
Artists submitted their works to the Commission, which selected a juror, who chose the works that would make it into the exhibit. Selected artists receive $500 honorariums for their works, which are loaned to the city for a year. Patti said.
George Neubert, director of the Sheldon Memorial Art Gallery and Sculpture Garden at the University of Nebraska at Lincoln, chose this year's sculptures. Sabatini said that the Arts Commission was fortunate to have had Neubert's participation in the event and that he was a man whose credentials included selecting artwork for the White House.
Ramberg described her work as an abstractly figurative rusted metal piece that resembled a "Hamlet-like" figure making a speech. Hamlet was a tragic hero who descended into madness in a play called "Hamlet" by William Shakespeare.
Local flavor is represented in the exhibit by Lawrence artist Ardys Ramberg's "Sollouqu."

Trio celebrates commencement
Mother leads her family of graduates
By Kristi Reimer
By Kristi Reimer
krehmer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Instead of becoming misty-eyed as her children prepared to leave the nest to go to college, Martha DeMond led the way.
This month, her education will culminate along with theirs when mother, son and daughter all graduate.
"Everybody's celebrating and proud of us," said DeMond, 52, of Leawood. "The kids have been supportive. They understand why I don't cook big Sunday meals."
DeMond will receive her master's degree in social work from the University of Kansas when she walks down the Hill May 23. Her son, Marcus, will be getting his bachelor's in business administration the same day.
The weekend before. DeMond's
daughter, Lynn Ann Bachman of Harrisonville, Mo., will receive her master's in occupational therapy from Rockhurst College in Kansas City, Mo. Bachman graduated from the University in 1984.
All of this University of Kansas activity has been a strain on DeMond's husband, Gregory, who went to Kansas State University.
"We have to fight for the flagpole outside," Martha DeMond said. "He doesn't like writing all these checks to KU. He wants us out of his wallet."
DeMond said she was planning an open house for friends in the area and a houseful of company from upstate New York.
"My husband said he'd only give us one party," DeMond said.
Going to school at the same time as her kids helped her empathize with them and vice versa, DeMond said.
Bachman, 27, who is now married and has a baby, said that when she and her mother were undergraduates, they took a class together.
Bachman said her mother told her what instructors to avoid, and Bachman tried to calm her mom down during finals.
classes than I did," Bachman said. "There was some competition there because my grades were better."
"She actually skipped more
"She always stressed more than I did," Bachman said. "I'd say, 'Mom, you study too hard.'"
DeMond said she made the decision to go back to school when the business for which she was working relocated to Iowa. She said she wanted to work with people, so she chose social work.
"I had to have a piece of paper that said I was as smart as I was," DeMond said. "I hope to go on and get my Ph.D. eventually, but right now I want to get licensed and start working in the mental health field."
Not only has DeMoon been going to school full time, she has been working full time in the psychiatric unit at Baptist Medical Center in Kansas City, Mo. She said the University, her employers and her family had been supportive and flexible.
"There's not enough time to be
supermom, superwife, supergrammy," DeMond said. "I don't have time to bake cookies."
But her son said he was amazed by what she had done.
He said some of the pressures of graduation were eased by having his mother and sister going through the same thing.
"She goes to school and works until one in the morning, and she still has dinner on the table," Marcus DeMond said. "She's never been big on baking cookies, but she's a great mom."
"They just threw my announcements in with theirs," he said. "My mom called me the other day to remind me to pick up my cap and gown. It's taken some of the burden off."
DeMond said she planned to work with abused women at battered women's shelters, but for now she was focused on seeing herself and her children through commencement.
"Anything's got to be easier than this." DeMond said.

Thrift stores offer inexpensive choices
By Lindsay Gilliland Special to the Kansas
Tamara Kemp, Arvada, Colo., junior, sorts through a variety of colorful scarves at Sugarton Traders, 918 Massachusetts St. Stem was given an imaginary $50 to put together a stylish outfit from the store's selection of second-hand vintage and contemporary clothing. Photo by Matt J. Daugherty/KANSAN
Is your summer armoire looking anemic?
Are you short on cash to buy a wardrobe with cachet?
Don't despair, Lawrence thrift stores are there to provide attire with flare.
Just take the case of Tamara Kemp, Arvada,
Colo., junior, who recently went on a shopping
spree at Sugartown Traders, 918 Massachusetts
St. and came out dressed to the nines.
Kemp was sent on the seemingly impossible mission of putting together a stylish seasonal outfit with a mere $50 to spend. By secondhand shopping, Kemp was able to emerge from the dressing room looking chic time and again
— and at half the cost per outfit of what she had been allotted to spend.
This is how Sugartown owners Shelly Lane and Tamara Heim, both former KU students, intended the shop to function when they opened their doors a year and a half ago.
"You can get clothes with that 'one-of-a-kind' feeling at roughly one-third of what you would pay in a regular retail store," Lane said.
Heim said that quirky T-shirts also were a hot commodity.
The owners of Sugartown are careful to only stock their store with merchandise they believe will appeal to their shoppers. They primarily carry clothes that conform to contemporary fashion trends or vintage clothing that has made a comeback.
Heim said that the revival of the Swing movement had made clothes from the '40s and '50s big sellers as well.
And of course, the staple of any college student's wardrobe — blue jeans.
Lane said the majority of Sugartown clientele was college students, although high school students, professionals and children were not uncommon shoppers at the store.
Kemp said she liked not having to worry that
she would end up standing in line next to someone wearing the same outfit as her.
Another plus is that Sugartown Traders buys clothes from customers. The employees will pay customers 40 percent of the item's value up front or 60 percent in store trade.
While Sugartown has a wide selection of vintage clothing, another Lawrence thrift store — Arizona Trading Company, 734 Massachusetts St., stocks more of a contemporary selection.
"Other stores have the vintage market covered," said owner Jennifer McKnight, who began the Arizona Trading Company eight years ago and has since opened two additional locations at the Westport area of Kansas City, Mo., and Columbia, Mo.
Arizona operates the same way as Sugartown, offering to pay cash for clothes or give store credit.

Snooze time isn't priority for many college students
By Amber Stuever Special to the Kansan
"I'd say most college students suffer from sleep deprivation." Devaney said. "However, most make it a priority to sleep and in my life right now, it's not a priority."
Devaney, like many University of Kansas students and a large portion of the American population, suffers from sleep deprivation, a condition that deprives a person from getting the recommended 6-9 hours of sleep necessary for them to stay healthy.
It's 5 a.m. and Colleen Devaney, Leawood senior, is just finishing up her homework for the night before drifting off to sleep.
Three hours later she'll slam on the alarm clock and face a full day of class, work and extracurricular activities that will take up more than 21 hours of her day, leaving her to her usual 2-3 hours of sleep.
Many students said their class loads, work schedules, social lives and extracurricular activities - and the inability to focus late at night
- left them little time to sleep.
Linda Keeler, a psychiatrist at Counseling and Psychological Services, said sacrificing sleep to accomplish other activities wasn't a good idea.
"All the things they're working so hard to accomplish aren't working when they're sleep deprived," Keeler said.
According to Keeler, while a person sleeps, the brain produces serotonin, a neurotransmitter in the central nervous system. Serotonin controls a person's anxiety level, appetite, concentration and the brain's conversion from short-term to long-term memory. When a person sleeps too much, Keeler said, the excess of serotonin can make them feel groggy and not alert. The brain's production of too little serotonin, however, can lead to irritability, anxiety, susceptibility to depression, and a weakening of the immune system, among other effects.
of sleep a night, said she felt the effects of sleep deprivation. She said she felt groggy and would get sick easily when she was sleep-deprived.
"My worst problem is driving because that's when it usually hits me how tired I am," Devaney said.
Devaney admitted she felt the effects of sleep deprivation on the road.
Sarah Peden, Colorado Springs, Colo., freshman, who gets an average of five hours
Keeler said that some factors could decrease the quality of sleep, despite the quantity Caffeine and nicotine, both stimulant drugs, can affect a person's sleep. She also cited dieting and alcohol intake as other factors that rob students of valuable sleep.
Making up for lost sleep may be harder for those suffering from sleep deprivation than they think, Keeler said.
"It really takes several nights to be able to recuperate from that," Keeler said. "Biological systems tend to recuperate slower than we think."
Despite the obvious downfalls of sleep deprivation, some students are unwilling or unable to make any changes to their sleep patterns.
"The time I am most productive is from 12 a.m. or 1 a.m., to 6 a.m." Devaney said. "I find those to be my most productive hours so that's why I pull those late-nighters."
Doug Derhodes, Chicago freshman who works and studies through the night, said he too benefited from the lack of late night distractions.
"Sometimes I wish I had night classes because that's when I'm most focused," Derhodes said. "I feel like my day doesn't start until six or seven at night."
Derhodes and Devaney are part of a growing population of the sleep-deprived. According to the National Sleep Foundation's 1999 "Sleep in American" poll, 40 percent of adults reported that they were so tired during the day that it affected their daily activities.
One of the most tragic effects of sleep deprivation is the issue of fatigue-related car accidents. According to the poll, 27 percent of adults said they had dozed off while driving in the past year.

Twister survivors sift through rubble
Damages estimates rise to $225 million death total reaches 43
OKLAHOMA CITY — When John and Sheryl Molsbee were allowed back to their brick-and-frame home yesterday, the roof was gone but Monday's macaroni dinner was still in a pot on the stove.
The Associated Press
"I it's worse than I thought," said John Molsbee, who wasn't home when massive twisters leveled 3,000 homes and killed 38 people in Oklahoma. Five people also were killed by tornadoes in Kansas.
"I told you it was," said his wife, who hid with the 19-year-old daughter, Kristy, under a blue flowered mattress in the master bedroom, then helped pull injured people from the wreckage left behind.
The Molsbees were among hundreds of people left homeless by the tornadoes who were allowed to return yesterday to assess the damage.
Shelters were made available throughout the area for short-term housing, while officials made long-term arrangements for the suddenly homeless.
"We're not talking tent cities," said Ben Frizzell of the state Office of Civil Emergency Management. "There is a disaster housing program through FEMA that will provide rental assistance for up to 18 months if needed. Some people may even use this to rent travel trailers to put on their property."
The American Red Cross also passed out vouchers for people to stay in motels until other provisions could be made. Churches distributed food and clothes.
Bucky Kilbourne, who was running a shelter at the Midwest City Community Center, said 220 people took refuge there Monday night, but the number had dwindled to 60 by yesterday. He said hearing the stories of the displaced was almost more than he could bear.
"Everything they hold dear,
things they need — from medicine
to books to personal belongings
— all gone," he said.
Officials said nearly 700 people
were injured in the deadliest tornado to hit Oklahoma since 1947. The damage estimate has been placed at more than $225 million. At least 1,500 businesses and homes in Kansas also were destroyed or heavily damaged in Monday's storms.
More twisters swarmed across parts of Texas and Arkansas Tuesday, killing one person.
All around Oklahoma City, cars
President Clinton has authorized emergency disaster declarations for Oklahoma and Kansas, paving the way for federal emergency funds for home and business owners. The Federal Emergency Management Agency had 300 staff members on hand to assist victims and officials.
— some with smashed windows — formed grim processions as those lucky enough to have survived passed through police and National Guard checkpoints to view what was left of their homes before curfews resumed at 8 p.m.
At the Oakcrest Church of Christ, Jean Clemence of Moore was walking around in a daze as her children gathered goods and
other non-perishables from a food pantry hastily set up in a Sunday school class.
She and her boyfriend had ordered a storm cellar back in November, but the man who was supposed to install it dug the hole and just left it. Clemence said she had asked for the down payment back, and the man promised to come back yesterday.
"He's six months too late," she said. "We're going to get our money back, I don't care. I think he owes us."
In the Molsbees neighborhood, Shirley and Bennie Johnson's house was serving as a restroom retreat.
"We've got running water. If you've got to go, then come on in," Shirley Johnson said. The house escaped with just shattered windows and cracked sheet rock. The 21 pictures of Southwestern art still hung in the living room.
Johnson held up real estate fliers on the kitchen counter.
"We had this house for sale," Johnson said. "A couple even checked it out Monday afternoon. Now, it's real cheap."

PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENTS
Clinton:Reiterated NATO's mission -- defeat ethnic hatred
Clinton's visit, which was met by the sobering news that two crew members of a U.S. Apache helicopter were killed during a training exercise, came just days after three American POWs were freed. Defense Secretary William Cohen said the United States was prepared to release two captured Yugoslav soldiers.
"We must stand in Kosovo for the elemental principles of the common humanity of every breathing, living person in this continent," he said.
"I would expect that within a relatively short period of time we could see their release" — but not as a goodwill gesture to Yugoslav President Slobodan Milosevic, Cohen told reporters after Clinton's four hours of

military briefings at NATO headquarters in Brussels, Belgium.
Surveying the airplane hangar overflowing with members of the armed forces dressed in camouflage uniforms, and their children, Clinton reiterated that the NATO mission in Kosovo was to defeat ethnic hatred and intolerance.
"I know this is hard," he said.
"I know too many of these pilots are flying long hours with too little rest. I know the stress and anxiety must be unbearable."
He thanked American personnel for having helped end the war in Bosnia.
American armed forces are fighting to prevent world war in the future. Clinton said.
"If we don't want your successors to have to come to this continent and fight another bitter war, then we must stand in Kosovo for the elemental principles of the common humanity of every breathing, living person in this continent," he said.
In a press briefing after Clinton met with NATO, Secretary-General Javier Solana and allied commanders, Gen. Wesley Clark, NATO's supreme allied commander, said warplanes intensified strikes on Milosevic's ground forces.
Clinton also met with the three U.S.POWs freed last weekend by Milosevic in response to an appeal by the Rev. Jesse Jackson.
WASHINGTON — As early as 1966, managers at the Los Alamos nuclear lab wanted to examine the computer of a scientist suspected of espionage. But they were warned away by Justice Department lawyers who feared the search would taint information for use in court, the Senate was told yesterday.
When Wen Ho Lee's office computer was searched last month, it was found that more than 1,000 top-secret files of computer codes on nuclear weapons had been deleted after being improperly transferred from a highly secure computer system.
Computer experts reconstructed the files, government officials have said, but questions remain why the search was not conducted much earlier because Lee had been under suspicion of espionage since 1996.
The Associated Press
Questions regarding search remain in computer case
"An individual is suspected of being a spy with access to all of our warhead information ... and we did not get into his computer. This is total incompetence," Sen. Don Nickles, R-Oka., said yesterday.
Top-secret files found on spy suspect's PC
Lee, who has not been charged with any crime, was fired in March for alleged security violations and remains under investigation. He has denied through his lawyer any espionage. His computer was searched after he was dismissed.
John Browne, the director of the Los Alamos lab in New Mexico, said at a Senate hearing yesterday that as early as 1968 laboratory officials suggested to the FBI, which had just begun investigating Lee, that the Taiwanese-born scientist's computer be searched. They argued they could do so under a 1995 policy directive that advises all lab employees that their computers are subject to search without notice.
"The FBI and the Department of Justice felt that the policy was not adequate (and) ... that if we proceeded independently, anything that was found they could not use" in court, Browne told the Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee.
Investigators have alleged that Lee had transferred massive amounts of critical computer codes — known as the "legacy file" — from Los Alamos' top-secret computer system to his unsecured desktop computer, mostly in 1944-95, but some as far back as 1983. The codes provide a virtual history of America's nuclear warhead development and are used to simulate how warheads perform.
The Los Alamos lab installed a sophisticated encryption barrier in 1996 to further isolate the lab's classified computer system and its unclassified network. So far, there's no indication that Lee made any improper transfers after 1995, officials said.
Meanwhile, congressional sources said yesterday that the transfer of topsecret data from the classified system involved special, complicated procedures that were supposed to be known only to a small number of senior employees such as systems supervisors.
It's not clear how Lee could have obtained these procedures, which were supposed to be closely controlled.
Meanwhile, Sen. Pete Domenici, R-N.M., said that there were a number of warnings as far back as 1984 — covering both Republican and Democratic administrations — suggesting that Lee might be involved in espionage, but that they were not adequately followed up because of "a tragedy of errors, lost files, omissions and bad judgment."
Domenici said Lee's activities — he had a top "Q" security clearance until last December — should have been curtailed long before December. Lee was the focus of suspicion on several occasions dating back to the early 1980s, the senator said.

POLICY
Box owners must provide their own alcohol, bring it to the stadium before game day, and are allowed to drink it during the game, and two hours before and after the game.
The Athletics Department reserves the right to repossess the box if the rules are broken.
Alcohol is allowed to be served in the skyboxes because the Board of Regents provided Chancellor Robert Hemenway with the authority to designate certain areas of campus as open for alcohol consumption.
A request form must be filled out by the Athletics Department requesting that the Chancellor designate the skyboxes as alcohol friendly.

It's a $14 million, 36-suite stadium- expansion inspired by the desire to keep up with Big 12 Conference rivals, fueled by the need to generate cash and buoyed by the promise that high-rolling football fans will open their wallets.
It's a new era of Kansas football catering to a business class of superfans who like their football games indoors, in luxury and with a splash of bourbon.
A long time in the planning
This big-league project was proposed several years ago by the University's Major League chancellor. In his final year, Chancellor Gene Budig was ready to begin construction, but then left in 1995 to become President of Major League Baseball's American League.
Now, Chancellor Robert Hemenway has put the boxes back on a fast track.
Kansas, along with neighbors Kansas State and Missouri, all face the dilemma
or moving into the Big 12 with less than adequate facilities. Texas, Nebraska and Colorado already have luxur y boxes. And, Athletics Department officials say that recent
and future construction will raise these former Big 8 schools' facilities to equal the Big 12 powers and other big-time national football schools.
The object is to build a facility that will make Kansas competitive in football, generate revenue and ultimately improve the general condition of the Kansas football program. Athletics Director Bob Frederick said the driving force behind all improvements at the University are to remain competitive.
"The financial future of the athletic department is in the hands of the football program," Frederick said. "That's the one that is underdeveloped. We're maxed out in basketball."

The odds on the boxes are looking good. Pat Warren, assistant athletics director, said that between 25 and 30 of the 36 suites already had been committed to, and Frederick said he anticipated the rest would be sold out by season's start.
To develop the football program, Frederick is betting two things will happen – the luxury boxes are going to sell and the football program is going to improve.
"A lot of people have been very loyal to our football program and have helped us in this process," Frederick said. "That shows that people are excited about the future of Kansas football."
While alcohol is banned from most games across the nation, most luxury suites allow those inside to drink whatever they bring. The same will be true at Kansas. Warren said consumption of alcohol would be allowed in the boxes but not in the stands or parking lot because the department cleared the policy through the Kansas Board of Regents.
One thing that has boosted the success of the luxury boxes is that those who purchase them can drink a beer or sip wine during a game. That puts Kansas in line with most of the nation's programs.
The alcohol equation
"Allowing the purchasers of the suites to be able to consume alcohol was extremely important in getting commitments," Warren said. "Several businesses and executives feel that they could not have as much fun drinking Kool-Aid."
The requests must be filed two weeks in advance. Once approved, those consuming the alcohol must abide by laws regulating drinking.
The suite owners must bring their alcohol before game day and are allowed to drink from two hours before kickoff to shortly after the game ends.
According to the University's alcohol policy, those wishing to drink on campus must fill out a request form. In the luxury box case, it would most likely be Frederick or Warren - not the box owners. The form must be approved by the Provost and recommended to the Chancellor. The Chancellor, based on the power given to him by the Regents, will then designate certain areas of campus, skyboxes in this case, as open for alcohol consumption.
"The time frame is put in to ensure it is not a spur of the moment thing," said Tom Hutton, director of University Relations.
Warren said if luxury-box fans were reckless or allowed underage drinking in the suites, the department reserved the right to take away their suite privileges.
"One of the major differences is that it is a relatively small group of fans," Hutton said. "And it's in a more controlled environment. Forty thousand or 50,000 fans in a stadium isn't."
It was only in 1993 that the University banned alcohol as part of game-day tailgating parties. What separates these business-class fans from the average fan?
Of course, those few fans who purchase suites do shell out big bucks. The majority

of luxury boxes will cost a total of $40,000 a year. That num b er includes the initial donation of $32,000 for the construction, coupled with the cost of season tickets, parking and food.
Frederick said a majority of the donors were businesses and companies looking to entertain in a collegiate atmosphere.
Businesses that come for the Memorial Stadium luxury box experience can freeze their claim on a box for up to 10 years, keeping the price at the current value and providing the Athletics Department with financial security. The boxes must be purchased for a minimum of three years.
The Magnet Theory
What's a university doing in the skybox business? Warren offered a "magnet theory" as an answer.
"Our goal is to have an athletic program that mirrors the excellence of our university academically," Warren said. "Athletics serves as a magnet that gets attention. We can then showcase the other advantages of our university."
The theory predicts that athletics is the first step to entice donors into getting involved with the school. Once involved on the athletic side, donors will donate to other departments within the university.
Frederick backed Warren's claim and said there is evidence at Kansas that proves the theory. He said one donor who had been heavily involved in Kansas basketball later went on to contribute to the School of Business. And another donor, Frederick said, helped finance the new student sports center and donated money across campus.
While the department gets its money
up front with the renovations and new facilities, some on the other side of the magnet are not picking up the same vibe.
dent of what I do, so I don't begrudge them for doing it."
Coffee Table
"As far as I'm concerned the central issue of the university is a teaching mission; however, when it comes funding time, we become a stepsister, wearing ragged clothing." Dardess said.
History professor John Dardess said he took a cynical approach to athletic financing.
Political Science professor Burdett Loomis agreed with Dardess, but said he did not think it was unfair for athletics to build lavish facilities.

There has been other evidence that supports the magnet theory. The New York Times recently examined the role the Connecticut basketball team played in the school's success. School donations tripled and the overall assessed value nearly quadrupled since 1997. And when UConn won the national championship in March, the admissions office had to print more applications because the athletic teams had created enough of a stir for people to be interested in applying.
The same happened at Northwestern when its football team enjoyed success during the 1996 season, and the same happened to Boston College during the Doug Flutie days of the early 1980s.
"Athletics is the tail thatwags the dog of a lot of campuses," Loomis said. "Not so much here, but I think that success in athletics makes people want to donate more money to the athletic department. Athletics is, in most ways, completely indepen-
Are skvboxes needed?
The issue at Kansas is not whether money should be donated to athletics or academics; that question has been answered. The question with luxury boxes is whether the University needs them.
To Warren, the answer is "Absolutely." He said the stadium not only was important to recruiting and maintaining a visible commitment to the football program, but that the boxes can generate revenue for once the suites are paid for.
But it's the pursuit of revenues that leads some to question the mission of college sports.
Frederick said when critics talked about big spending in college athletics, they failed to see the big picture.
"Some coaches make more than the governors of their states," said Mike McGraw, sportswriter for The Kansas City Star. "It's a huge money war, and we're talking amateur sports."
"Schools are eager to line up as many new revenue sources they can – and often times the result of this can be discriminating," Fatsis said. "But the resources are finite and there are only so many things an athletic department can do to compensate. That leads to the building of luxury boxes that can be cash cows."
McGraw wrote a 1997 series after an 18-month investigation of Division-I college sports and found that, in the end, college sports lose money on a yearly basis.
Stefan Fatsis, The Wall Street Journal sportswriter, said his studies show that sports, at all levels, are moving away from the fans in the stands and more toward the money.
Finding that balance. Fatsis said, creates the risk that sporting events will become separated along class lines.
"The criticism of the NCAA being monev
"Like many other sporting events, college sports have shifted toward the revenue creating fan," Fatsis said. "In defense of the athletics department, they have to do something to generate money, but there has to be a balance between the Chablis drinking business fan and average fan."
driven is really only talking about two sports - football and basketball," Frederick said. "These pay for our 18 other fully funded sports that don't get recognition." Whether we're fine
against building luxury boxes, one thing remains true - the point of the project has been to build a facility that will allow Kansas' football program to compete with the best. The luxury boxes show the commitment is being made.
Put an unsuccessful team on the field—even with the top-notch facility Memorial Stadium is becoming—and no matter who is drinking what, it will be hard for anybody at the University of Kansas to benefit.
"It's tough to say right now what the advantages are since we don't have it yet," Warren said. "But what is hoped is that now people will come, they'll enjoy their game-day experience and they'll want to come back."

Singles' win extends postseason

It is the situation in which athletes hope to find themselves. The team is tied in a playoff game on the opponent's home court and the victory falls in the hands of one athlete. The opposing crowd taunts while the athlete's teammates try to provide a little encouragement.
Kansas men's tennis No. 6 player Micah Zomer did not expect to find himself living that dream in a Big 12 Conference tournament win that ended in a NCAA tournament berth.
Zomer, typically a reserve player, had played only two spring matches before last Friday's match against No. 22 Texas A&M. But, he found himself in the No. 6 spot against the Big 12 No. 6 singles champion after Kansas' No. 2 singles player Kenny Powell did not play because of disciplinary reasons
"I if had lost, it would have been the seniors' last match," the sophomore said. "I had to do it for the team. If you can't inspire yourself to win in that situation, there's something wrong."
Earlier, sixth-seeded Kansas had tied the score 3-3 against the third-seeded and host Aggies when Kansas freshman Rodrigo Echagaya came from behind in the third set and won 3-6, 7-6 (10-8), 7-5 in the No. 4 singles match. The other two victories came from freshman Alex Barragan in his No. 2 singles debut and freshman Quentin Blakeney at No. 5 singles.
With the score tied, the attention was focused on Kansas' Zomer and Juan Armamburo of Texas A&M.
"Coach Riley was on the court with me, coaching me all the way," Zomer said. "I looked and listened to him, and I could see my teammates in the stands. I don't know how I stayed calm. I really wasn't that calm."
However, he had spent most of the spring as a reserve on the team.
Zomer had been in this position before. Last season in Montgomery, Ala., the team was tied 3-3 against UNLV in the Blue and Gray tournament. Zomer's third-set win clinched the team's victory.
"Zomer is a reserve player who has spent a lot of time in practice trying to stay prepared," coach Mark Riley said. "That could be the toughest job on the team."
Zomer said that he was ready for the physical aspect of the game, but he was a little unprepared for the mental chal-
"It's tough to come through for the team when you haven't been playing, but I became more comfortable as the match went on."
Zomer said that Riley helped him to stay in focus.
But Riley said he used very basic advice to keep his player in the match.
"I just told him basic things." Riley said. "I tried to put thoughts into his mind about what to do, where to put his serve, and when to go to the net. The biggest thing I told him
during the break was that it was going to come down to who wants to win more and who works harder on the points."
When Zomer won, the team ran down the stairs from the stands, charged the court and dog piled the winner.
"I have a lot more confidence now," Zomer said. "I beat a very good player. Just the fact that I could beat that kind of a player showed me that I could swing with the big boys."
The victory helped the Jayhawks to reach the NCAA tournament, which begins on May 14 in Dallas.
Baseball team still trying to earn coach's 400th win, also playing for themselves

Every cloud has a silver lining. And for the Kansas baseball team this season, that silver lining has been the key of sophomore short stop John Nelson. Although, barely shining through at times, Nelson's play has put a bright tint on an otherwise dreary day.
Nelson who leads the team in 10 offensive categories, has surpassed expectations that followed his stellar freshman season.
Whunks
Nelson's .320 average is tops on the team. He also leads the team in hits (58), doubles (13), triples (6), RBI (36), total bases (95), slugging percentage (.525), walks (29), on-base percentage (.413) and steals (15).
Despite all of Nelson's personal achievements, he would bargain them away for a win.
The Jayhawks finished Big 12 Conference play with a 4-26 record. That was good for 10th in the conference and marks the worst conference winning percentage by a Kansas team since the 1987 squad was 3-21 in the Big 8.
During a career-high, 15-game hitting streak Nelson said, "I'd trade all of the accolades for some wins for the team."
Although the part of the season that counts toward the postseason is finished, the Jayhawks have six games remaining and are hoping to finish the season strong.
"We just want to come out, play hard and try to get some wins," catcher Shane Wedd said. "People think we have nothing to play for, but we're playing for ourselves."
Unfortunately for Nelson and the team, the season is winding down, and those wins did not come.
The next opportunity for the 'Hawks to earn the win will be tonight when Oral Roberts comes to town as part of a four games in four days series.
Another thing that the 'Hawks are playing for is coach Bobby Randall's 400th career coaching victory.
The first two will be at Hoglund Ballpark tonight and tomorrow, and the next two will be at Oral Roberts at J.L. Johnson Stadium in
The Golden Eagles come to Lawrence the owners of an impressive 36-11 record. On top of leading the Mid-Continent Conference, Oral Roberts has flirted with national rankings all season. Led by Ryan Neil who is hitting .464 with 11 home runs and 52 RBI, coach Sunny Galloway's squad is poised to make the postseason.
Game one will be tonight at 7 and sophomore Pete Smart is expected to make his second career start. His first start came last weekend against Kansas State. Smart pitched well during five innings, scattering nine hits and holding K-State to just four runs. Despite Smart's strong start, the 'Hawks went on to lose the game earning Smart a no-decision.

"It helps my confidence even more to be out there for the first pitch," Smart said.
Jayhawk alumnus adjusts to the NFL

The 49ers called me in the fifth round of the draft and said they were going to draft me with one of their next picks. Then, Bill Walsh called me after the draft and said, "I was a jerk. I was the reason why we didn't draft you. But you're our top priority now, and you'll be our second-string left tackle."
Dan Dercher's phone was ringing soon after the NFL draft was completed April 18. Though the former Kansas offensive tackle wasn't drafted, 15 teams called in hopes of signing him as a free agent. Dercher signed with the 49ers and spent the following weekend at their Santa Clara, Calif., practice facility. From a 300-page playbook to sharing the huddle with future Hall of Fame quarterback Steve Young, pro football is going to take some getting used to for Dercher. The following is from an interview conducted yesterday:
I probably could have gotten more money from Philadelphia (Eagles), Chicago (Bears) and Carolina (Panthers), but the 'Niners are a great organization.
the hardest thing will be learning the playbook. We had a 300-page playbook and that was only for a minicamp. You had to learn about 50 pages for each practice. Our playbook here (at Kansas) wasn't that big because we just put in different game plans for each week. You learned the basic plays that we'd use against that week's opponent.
I was a little scared the first practice, but I got into the groove. We did full one-on-one pass rush drills. I was going against Charles Haley and I beat him a couple of times. Then, by the second or third time, the other veterans started giving him some trouble about being beat by a rookie. So then he brought a bull rush on me with no pads on. They said that's
pretty cheap; no shoulder pads on and this guy's going to try and bowl me over
Iran second-string. I was in the huddle with Steve Young about half of the time. He introduced himself and said he liked to get to know all the guys in his huddle, so he was real cool. He's also the best athlete on the team. We did a thing called a beep test, which is basically how many consecutive 20-yard dashes you can do. There's a beep, then you run 20 yards, then it beeps again, and it keeps getting faster and faster. It lasts until you can't
go anymore. Steve Young was the best on the team; he did it 125 times.
Bill Walsh and (Director of Player Personnel) Terry Donahue came out and talked to me at practice and said the coaches are saying great things about me and they're really happy to have me. My offensive line coach said, "I
1
Dercher: Excited about future with the 49ers
hope you're glad you came here. You had an excellent minicamp." It seems like I can be around there for awhile.
I'm waiting to get my signing bonus today or tomorrow. I'm probably going to get a car, but that's about it. I'll put the rest of it away.
The NFL is a lot more laid back than college football. The guys are all grown men. That's a hard thing to get used to. You want to go hang out with the guys, but these guys also have families to go home to. But it's also a job now, so that's the way you have to look at it. You're competing with other guys to make money. And if I can play for a few years, I'll be financially secure and be smart and invest money, that's great. If not, I can always say I played with the best for awhile.

Commentary Columnist says thanks to athletes for openness
Sometimes Jacque Vaughn left through the back door.
But sometimes, after playing his heart out, going through post-game rituals and talking to the press, he wanted to leave.
Even when the former Kansas guard played a great game, Vaughn would sneak out of Allen Fieldhouse through the door not surrounded by adoring fans.
It wasn't that he didn't like the fans or enjoy signing autographs.
It is not an uncommon occurrence
So,he would just slip away.
At times, college athletes just want to do their jobs, and go home.
But, as fans, we constantly demand more from college athletes. We want them to sign more autographs, pose for more pictures and talk to us more.
As media members, we want more access and increased interview time, and we demand that college athletes answer our sometimes asinine questions.
We forget that these athletes are not mak
Some adore the attention, but others just want to quietly leave.
But we as fans and media refuse to let them do that—even once in a while.
M.
ing the ridiculous amounts of the money professional athletes make. These athletes participate in college athletics to pay for school, have fun or prepare for a professional career.

But we must remember that these are just college students playing a game.
As a journalist, I have a responsibility to ask athletes tough questions, and I expect them to answer.
Nearly five years ago, I walked into the Kansan newsroom.
The sports editor told me I could cover golf and tennis, and to go to Alvamar golf course and interview the golf team.
As I started driving, I realized I had no idea where the golf course was.
I wasn't going to call my editor and admit that, so I drove around until I finally got directions. I arrived at practice after it ended and walked into a room where the golf team was sitting around, shooting the breeze.
I was invited to sit with the team and participate in a regular after-practice routine: Talking about golf, girls and whatever else.
Since that day, Kansas players have allowed me to watch and interrogate them.
These athletes have let me experience some of the most emotional and personal moments of their lives.
When things have gone bad, athletes have allowed me to talk with them about personal tracedies and defeats.
I have seen football players cry after gut-wrenching losses and basketball players privately pray before a game. I was there when swimmers dealt with the death of a friend and teammate and when cross country runners broke down and fell to the ground vomiting unable to finish the race.
When life has been good, the athletes have always been willing to open up, especially in victory.
It hasn't all been rosy. I have been critical and demanding. I have questioned athletes and their teams.
Some athletes have told me to go away, threatened to beat me up and called me names. But those were rarities.
And in some cases I have understood the frustration.
As fans and media members, we forget that many college athletes just want to do their job and go home.
So, as this is my last column at the University of Kansas, I want to thank those athletes who allowed me into their lives even when they did not want to.
And I want to tell them all that sometimes it is all right to slip out the back door.

Rodman settles suit assault charges in L.A.
LOS ANGELES — Dennis Rodman and a college student have reached a settlement in a civil lawsuit that accused the former Los Angeles Lakers forward of assault.

Vikings coach seeks state-financed center
MINNEAPOLIS — Minnesota Vikings owner Red McCombs said the team must have updated facilities to do business in the "real world."
McCombs, a longtime auto dealer, compared the Metrodome to a car dealership that hasn't been renovated while its competitors in the marketplace have modernized.
and truck dealers. "That is not a Red McCombs problem — that is up to the people of Minneapolis."
McCombs said that he related to the hesitancy to support publicly financed sports facilities. As a car dealer, McCombs said he always had been slow to build new showrooms.
But he insisted that the Vikings must have a stadium with more club seats and luxury boxes. The Metrodome, which also is home to the Minnesota Twins and the University of Minnesota football team, has 115 private suites owned by the Vikings.
"I always tried to milk the last dime out of what I paid for," McCombs said.
McCombs' sales pitch has yet to sway many state legislators. Gov. Jesse Ventura also has said on a number of occasions that he opposes public financing for sports venues.
"We're going to have to have a facility fix," said McCombs Tuesday in a speech to about 200 Minnesota auto
HILLS
CONCORD, N.C. — With flags at half staff, Lowe's Motor Speedway returned to the business of racing yesterday, holding a test for Winston Cup cars on the track where three spectators died last weekend.
McCombs said the stadium effort began with surveys showing 75 percent opposed, but passed with 53 percent voting in favor. The key was getting support from politicians and the local media, McCombs said.
More than two dozen teams from stock car racing's top circuit showed up for the start of the two-day test session, which had been scheduled well in advance of Saturday night's Indy Racing League event.

Winston Cup restarts despite fatal accident
A three-car crash in that race at speeds near 215 mph sent a tire and suspension parts flying into the stands, killing three and injuring eight, including one critically.
The accident prompted speedway officials to consider canceling the Winston Cup test, but they elected to proceed mainly because the session, booked by General Motors for its teams, was closed to the public. No spectators were allowed in the stands.
Twenty minutes into the practice session, Michael Waltrip's Chevrolet spun violently through the third turn and slammed off the fourth-turn retaining wall, about 200 yards from where Saturday night's wreck occurred.
"We felt it was in everybody's best interests to move on," said track spokesman Jerry Gappens.
Waltrip wasn't injured, but the crash served as an eerie reminder of recent events.
"Our hearts go out to the folks who lost their lives and their families and the people who were injured," three-time Winston Cup champion Jeff Gordon said as he prepared to go out for his first test run. "But we know that Charlotte Motor Speedway, the IRL and really everybody in motorsports is going to come together and do
whatever they can to improve the situation to make sure that doesn't hap pen again."
Mystics pick Holdsclaw at WNBA No.1 spot
Holdswil, a four-time All-American who led Tennessee to three consecutive national titles, was the No. 1 pick by the Washington Mystics in Tuesday's WNBA draft.
She is Tennessee's career scoring leader, surpassing Allan Houston with 3,025 points.
Holdswil, a two-time national player of the year, was selected first even though pro players from the defunct American Basketball League were included in the draft. Holdswil was the only college player drafted in the first round.
"She's the player of the present and the player of the future for our league," said WNBA president Val Ackerman. "Her eventual appeal could rival what Michael Jordan was able to do over his long career."

"A casual basketball fan who hasn't quite turned on to women's basketball may be won over because of Chamique — her mystique, what she does on the court, the whole package."
NEW YORK — The WNBA is banking on Chamique Holdswclaw to be the crossover player of the 21st century.
"Washington is where my grandmother wanted me to play," said Hold-sclaw, a native New Yorker. "I'm kind of glad I didn't go to New York, because I don't know if I could handle all the pressure and friends and fans."
Former ABL player Yolanda Griffith was the No. 2 pick, going to the Sacramento Monarchs.
弓
Griffith, the 1998 ABL defensive player of the year, averaged 17.2 points and 12.3 rebounds for the Chicago Condors. She's looking forward to playing with Sacramento's Ruthie Bolton-Holifield.

'Hawks head for NCAA tournament
By Melinda Weaver
sports@kansan.com
Kansan sportswriter
An upset victory against third-seeded Texas A&M was enough to advance the Kansas men's tennis team into the NCAA tournament, which begins May 14.
The No. 51 Jayhawks will travel to Dallas to face No. 21 Texas Christian University in the tournament's opening round. This will be the Jayhawks' sixth straight tournament appearance, the ninth in team history.
TCU's No. 1 singles player, Esteban Carril, is the sixth-ranked player in the country, but Kansas' No. 3 singles player Alex Barragan beat him in the fall at the Hurricane Invitational in "Tulsa. Okla."
TCU's coach, Michael Center, was the coach at Kansas from 1992 to 1996, leading the team to four Big Eight titles. Center played for Kansas from 1983-
86 and accumulated 153 singles and doubles wins, eighth in Kansas history.
Senior Luis Uribe said it would be weird to play against the coach who recruited him and convinced him to come to Kansas.

The Jayhawks lost to New Mexico earlier this season at home, 7-2. However, the team
was without its senior leader, Kris Sell. Sell was out with two torn ligaments in her ankle.
After the match, Garrity attributed the loss to too many double
faults and too many missed returns.
However, Garrity said the level of play of the team has greatly increased from the last matchup.
"Everyone on the team has taken their tennis up a level," she said. "But so has New Mexico. I'm really looking forward to the match."
The tournament is single-elimination. The winners of each regional will advance to the NCAA finals in Gainesville, Fla. May 20-23.
Last year, the Jayhawks won their regional but lost in the first round of the tournament. They post a 1-4 overall record in the NCAA.
En route to the finals, the Jayhawks defeated New Mexico in the semifinals of the regional, 5-3.
Garrity said the Jayhawks would need a good performance to the repeat victory.
"It will take a fabulous playing effort to beat them," she said.
If Kansas wins, the Jayhawks will face either Duke or Oral Roberts on May 16.
The fate of the singles and doubles players will be decided next week when the seedings for the individual championship are released.
The tournament, played from May 24-28, will feature the top 64 singles players and top 32 doubles teams.

Players miss homebound flight to Cuba after U.S. game
The Associated Press
BALTIMORE — A Cuban pitching coach walked into police headquarters after wandering the streets of Baltimore for eight hours and said he wanted to remain in the United States.
Rigoberto Herrera requested asylum around 10 a.m. Tuesday, some 10 hours after the Cubans beat the Orioles 12-6. He arrived at a downtown Baltimore police station hours after his countrymen hastily boarded a plane for Havana.
Police spokesman Robert Weinhold said the lieutenant on duty understood, through an interpreter, that Herrera was requesting asylum and immediately notified Immigration and Naturalization Service officials.
Herrera is now in the custody of the INS.
Rep. Bob Menendez, D-N.J., a foe of Fidel Castro's regime, said the man's full name was Rigoberto Herrera Betancourt.
Six other Cubans who missed the flight home Tuesday did so accidentally and will be allowed to return home without U.S. intervention, the Justice Department said.
Menendez said two other Cubans may also have asked for asylum, but the Justice Department officials, asking not to be identified, said they were not aware of any such request.
Ben Ferro the Immigration and Naturalization Service's Maryland district director, told The (Baltimore) Sun that other Cubans may be missing from the delegation.
The official Cuban government list of the delegation that traveled to Baltimore included Rigoberto Betancourt. The government news agency said he was a 54-year-old retired pitcher.
Betancourt played Cuban baseball between 1965 and 1975 and was known for an excellent curve ball. He was part of the national team three times: during the Central American-Caribbean games in Puerto Rico in 1966, in the Pan American games in Winnipeg in 1967, and during a tour of Mexico.
Most recently he worked as a pitching trainer in a Havana province. He was known as "El Pequeño Gigante del Box," or the Little Big Man in the Box.
Cuban officials denied that any members of the delegation defected, but said six Cubans overslent and missed the plane.
"We have no defectors," the spokesman for the Cuban diplomatic mission in Washington, Luis Fernandez, told The Associated Press.
In an interview with The (Baltimore) Sun, Fernandez likened their experience to the movie "Home Alone," in which a young boy is accidentally left at home when his family leaves on a vacation.
He said the six were planning to catch another flight home either Tuesday or today.
In Washington, a senior administration official said the government was making arrangements to talk to the six — despite the Justice Department conclusion — to learn whether they want to return voluntarily.
The INS would not comment on possible defections or say if the agency had been contacted by the six.
More than 300 Cubans were part of the delegation that attended Monday night's game. Besides players, the delegation included journalists, retired ballplayers, ordinary citizens, members of youth groups and outstanding students.
Teams to help counsel summer camp
While most members of the Kansas men's and women's swimming and diving team will spend the summer training at home with their club teams, some others will be doing something a little different.
By Emily Hughey sports@kanson.com
Kansas sportwriter
They're going to be counselors.
During a long speech welcoming the players in Havana, Castro criticized defections in general but said nothing about anyone staying behind.
The game was a rematch after the Orioles defeated the Cubans in Havana 3-2 on March 28, when the Orioles became the first major league team in 40 years to play in Cuba.
About 10 Kansas swimmers will be counselors to kids at the Jayhawk Training Camp, a week-long swim camp run by coach Gary Kempf.
The camp, which Kempf started 10 years ago, is designed for swimmers ages 8 to 17 and will take place in
KU SWIMMING
Kempf said that he didn't know how many counselors there would be because the number of counselors usually depended on the number of campers enrolled. Right now, he said that about 160 have been accepted and that between 20 and 50 will be turned away.
two-week-long sessions.
He said he has chosen the Kansas swimmers he thinks will do the best job.
"I want kids that I think will be good role models," Kempf said. "This is one of the biggest weeks of their lives to get to work with swimmers from the University of Kansas."
group made up a skit to perform for the rest of the group.
This summer, juniors Ryan Lee and Jen Fox will return for their second and third year at the camp, respectively. Both said they liked working at the camp, which takes place in Emporia, because they love kids.
"It was a great time, a fun time with the kids," Lee said.
He said that the best part about the camp was the last night, when each
"Last year, I had them dance to that one song by Mase and we did 'Puff Gary and the Family,' " Lee said.
"It was really funny," she said.
Fox laughed when she recalled Lee's skit.
Kempf said that the light atmosphere of the camp and the presence of the kids was refreshing for him after a long season.
"It's fun to be with the kids who are really having a good time," Kempf said.

Police investigating NFL agent's actions
Black loses clients, says case mishandled
The Associated Press
COLUMBIA, S.C. — Two weeks ago, Columbia-based agent Tank Black celebrated a record day at the NFL draft by having five of his clients selected in the first round.
He has lost several of those clients.
Four former University of Florida players, including first-round
NFL
Second-round picks Johnny Rutledge and Mike Peterson also fired Black. All four players signed with agent Leigh Steinberg.
Black said he doesn't blame the players for leaving after the way they've been treated in the investigation. He has hired an attorney and will try to recover lost income; agents receive a maximum 3 percent of a player's contract.
"Normally, when players leave,
it's something that the agent has done wrong to either the player or
the family or not made good on
something," Black told The
(Columbia) State for a story in
yesterday's editions. "None of that's
happened here. None of it.
"It's the environment that's been created (by the investigation) that has caused these players to leave."
According to the players association, Black has been under investigation since Jan. 29. He was accused of having a runner try to bribe an Louisiana State University assistant football coach to help him land defensive tackle Anthony McFarland.
But until April 14, the week of the draft, neither Black nor any of the players were questioned.
On April 14, Black said the players were told they had to testify the next day. He said several were pulled over by police to be subpoenaed.
They were subpoenaed again after the draft for further questioning.
"That would shake anybody," Black said. "Because of the way this investigation has been handled, I don't blame the players (for leaving). They've been misled into thinking things that aren't true. They've been intimidated in some ways."
Louisiana Tech wide receiver Troy Edwards, 13th pick of the draft by Pittsburgh; Tennessee linebacker Al Wilson, first-round pick of the Denver Broncos; and Clemson cornerback Antuan Edwards, first-round pick by Green Bay, remained with Black.
"If I were a young player, I wouldn't want to go through all of that. I'm a very unfair situation. I'm a good person and a good agent, and my record proves that."
But Edwards, recovering from toe surgery, said he has concerns.
"It's been in the back of my head." Edwards said. "He's got some issues that haven't been resolved. Until they get resolved, I'm going to stay with him."
Black founded Professional Management Inc., in 1988 and made former South Carolina and Green Bay Packers wide receiver Sterling Sharpe his first client. Before the Florida players left, he represented seven of the top 46 players selected in the April 17-18 draft.
Among his other clients are Jacksonville Jaguars running back Fred Taylor, Packers wide receiver Robert Brooks and Toronto Raptors guard Vince Carter, a leading candidate for NBA rookie of the year.
This is the first time Black has been accused of wrongdoing.
Upshaw said the association is investigating other agents and reports of their delivering illegal checks to coaches and personalized cars to players after bowl games.
Black said he has never made an illegal payment to anybody and said the allegations are "sour grapes from other agents." "What makes the agent business such a poor business is people jump on any bandwagon to bring somebody down," Black said.
The players association, according to executive director Gene Upshaw, expects the results of its investigation to be announced soon.
Penguins player provides inspiration, leadership in first-round playoff series
The Associated Press
EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. — Is Jaromir Jagr emerging from Mario Lemieux's shadow?
Capping a courageous playoff performance in which he served as both the Pittsburgh Penguins' inspirational and on ice leader, Jagr had a hand in three goals in a 4-2 win against the New Jersey Devils in the seventh game of their first-round playoff series Tuesday night.
"People judge you by how you play in the playoffs, not the regular season," Jagr said. "If you can do something to help the team win and become the leader that takes them to the Cup, that's how people are going to judge you."
Jagr's performance helped advance the eighth-seeded Penguins to a second-round Eastern Conference series against fourth-seeded Toronto, starting tomorrow. Sixth-seeded Boston begins play against seventh-seeded Buffalo today in the other semifinal in what is now a wide-open bracket with the elimination of the top three seeds, New Jersey, Ottawa and Carolina, respectively.
Detroit begins its second-round series at Colorado today.
series at Colorado today.
Jagr has long been one of the NHL's top scorers, leading the league three of the last five years.
"He is so huge," Penguins coach Kevin Constantine said. "Without him, we are eliminated."
Despite being constantly hit, Jagr was just as good in Game 7 in sending the Devils to their third straight early plavoff exit.
Jagr also had a lot of help from Alexei Kovalev and Martin Strika this series.
Kovalde had four goals, including one late in the second period that put Pittsburgh ahead for good. Straka set up the first two goals and scored on the back of Jagr's breakaway shot with 5:30 to play. German Titov and Jan Hrdina also scored in game 7.
"He (Jagr) draws the attention of the best defensive players on the other team." Constantine said. "It makes more room for a Kovalev or guys on different lines."
The Penguins also played very smart against New Jersey, a team that beat them four of five games in the regular season. They used a two-man forecheck
all series, bottling the Devils in their own end.
"They didn't make any mistakes," said Devils goalie Martin Brodeur, who faced just 13 shots in Game 7, although most were good scoring chances. "I don't think we had one breakaway in seven games."
While this series will best be remembered for Jagr's return, it's also going to go down as another playoff embarrassment for the Devils, now 2-5 in the seventh game.
As the conference's top seed the past three seasons, they were ousted in the second round two years ago by the New York Rangers and in the first last year by Ottawa, another eighth seed.
"We iust didn't get it done, all of us,"
NHL
defenseman Ken Daneyko said. "I don't think there is any worse feeling. We've been here before, but we expected so much more than last year."
Jason Arnott and Dave Andrechuk scored for New Jersey, which seemed better prepared for the playoffs this year, playing a more aggressive system under Robbie Ftorek. He got the job after Jacques Lemaire resigned after last year's playoffs.
However, the Devils were again awful in the postseason.
"Right now this seems worse than any situation we've been in and that includes last year," defenseman Scott Niedermayer said. "I was excited about this group of guys going into the playoffs. But it's not surprising why we are where we are. We didn't play 60 minutes."
The Penguins took the lead for good on goals in a span of 2:39 late in the second period.
Jagr intercepted a pass by Scott Stevens in the closing seconds and gave a great give-and-go play with 17 seconds left in the period.
Dave Andreychuk gave the Devils some hope by putting in a rebound to cut the lead to 3-2.
Minutes later, a bad line change and an errant pass by Bobby Carpenter set up a two-man rush. The play stopped Jagr, and a rebound was put up to the bench to celebrate the 4-2 advantage.

Marlins team victim of triple defeat
The Associated Press
MIAMI — Baseball's worst team again brought out the best in the Milwaukee Brewers.
Scott Karl pitched eight shutout innings and David Nilsson's seventh-inning homer broke a scoreless tie yesterday to help Milwaukee beat the Florida Marines for
the Florida Marlins for the 12th consecutive time, 2-0.
Milwaukee remained unbeaten against Florida since moving to the National League last year. The Brewers are 9-0 at Miami, including this week's three-game series.
BET
"No offense to the Marlins, but if we played 162 games here, we'd have a shot at the postseason," Karl said. "I don't know if it's the warm weather or what, but we put together three solid games here."
The Brewers have swept four series against the Marlins, outscoring them 76-35.
"Things are strange sometimes," Milwaukee manager Phil Garner said. "You can't explain it, because they're a decent ballclub."
The Marlins lost eight games in a row and finished 2-11 on their longest homestand of the season.
"We just aren't as bad as we've been," manager John Boles said. "There's no way I believe this is going to last forever."
Florida couldn't muster much against Karl (3-1), who allowed seven hits and walked none. He reached two strikes on 14 batters but struck out none, instead retiring 14 on groundouts.
Karl lowered his ERA from 4.15 to 3.29. The left-hander threw 105 pitches before Garner pulled him after eight innings.
"I wasn't thrilled with the decision, but he pulls the strings," said Karl, who hasn't thrown a shutout since 1996 and hasn't completed a game since 1997. "Unfortunately this isn't a democracy. I was told to grab some pine. I did it and took the win."
Bob Wickman struck out the side in the ninth for his fifth save.
"I like to have complete games,but sustaining
The Brewers extended their winning streak to four games, and they've won six consecutive away games. They're 10-5 on the road and 3-9 in Milwaukee.
wins is important, too," Garner said.
Florida's Brian Meadows (3-3) matched shutout innings with Karl until Nilsson led off the seventh with his third homer. Milwaukee added a run in the eighth when Rich Becker doubled and Jeff Cirillo singled.
Meadows pitched well even though he was recovering from strep throat and battling a blister on the middle finger of his right hand. He limited Milwaukee to seven hits and two runs in 7 1/3 innings but lost his third start in a row.
"The kid pitched terrific against us, and Scottie matched him." Garner said.
Florida's biggest threat came in the seventh, when shortstop Lou Collier threw out Bruce Aven trying to score from second base with two out on an infield hit up the middle.
The Marlins were shut out for the third time, and they remained last in the major leagues in runs scored.
Rockies score in every inning against Chicago
CHICAGO — Colorado scored a run in the first inning and kept on going and going and going.
The Rockies became the first team in 35 years and only the third this century to score in every inning, overcoming another Sammy Sosa home run to beat the Chicago Cubs 13-6 yesterday.
The last time another team scored in all nine innings was at Wrigley Field, when the St. Louis Cardinals beat the Cubs on Sept. 13, 1964. It happened only one other time this century, when the New York
Giants did it against Philadelphia on June 1, 1923.
Rookie Chris Sexton hit his first major league home run and had three RBL, and Dante Bichette went 4-for-5.
The Associated Press
Neifi Perez hit a solo homer in the second and a two-run double in the eighth, and Larry Walker went 3-for-5 with a single in the first, a double that loaded the bases in the third, and a triple in the fifth. He walked in the sixth and grounded out in the seventh.
Sosa, who ended an eight-game homerless stretch Tuesday, hit his sixth of the season, a two-run drive
in the third that got a boost from a 16-mph wind.
Sexton had an RBI single in the fourth, then hit a two-run homer in the seventh off Dan Serafini.
Pedro Astacio (2-3) gave up six runs and 10 hits in eight innings, striking it to send the Cubs to only their third loss in 11 games.
Terry Mulholland (2-1), gave up seven runs — six earned — and 11 hits in five-plus innings.
Walker scored on third baseman Gary Gaetti's fielding error in the first, and Perez homered leading off the second. Run-scoring singles by Jose Hernandez and Benito Santi-
Bichette had an RBI single in the third, but Sosa's herom put Chicago ahead 4-3 in the bottom half and Hernandez added an RBI single.
Sexton hit an RBI single in the fourth, and Bichette and Kurt Abbott had RBI doubles that gave Colorado a 6-5 lead in the fifth.
The Rockies loaded the bases in the sixth and Sexton scored on Richard Barker's wild pitch.
Gaetti hit his third home run in the eighth, but the Rockies added two in the ninth on a throwing error by first baseman Mark Grace.
Stats unimportant to Braves pitcher
The Associated Press
ATLANTA — John Smoltz doesn't know what his statistics are. All he knows is he can't wait to get the ball.
A day after Gregaddux was hit hard by St. Louis, Smoltz shut down the St. Louis Cardinals. Smoltz won his ninth consecutive decision, and the Atlanta Braves backed him with three home runs in an 12-3 rout yesterday.
"My goal every time I step on
"My goal every t the mound is to keep the ball in the park and let my defense go to work." Smoltz said. "I didn't have control like
Braves
in my previous games, but today the offense provided enough runs for me to win."
Smoltz (5-0), who leads the NL with a 1.69 ERA, allowed three runs — two earned — and five hits in seven innings. He also had two of Atlanta's 16 hits.
"I try not to think about my numbers. I honestly haven't looked at my stats this year. I haven't looked at the paper," he said. "I just don't want to get carried about with what's happening. Right now I feel like I'm in a pretty good groove
Brett Boone homered and hit a two-run double, and Ryan Klesko and Brian Jordan each hit two-run homers for the Braves, who had 16 hits and have won 10 of 12.
and can't wait for my next start."
Smoltz is unbeaten in 10 starts since a 4-3 loss to Houston on Aug. 31 and is 17-1 since last season's All-Star break.
Kent Bottenfield (4-1) was pounded for five runs and 10 hits in 4-1-3 innings. His ERA rose from 1.53 to 2.67.
Mark McGwire, who hit a grand slam off Maddux in the Cardinals' 9-1 win Tuesday.
was 1-for-3 with a two-run single, swinging at the first pitch from Smoltz, whom he had never faced before, each at bat.
"I guess that's the way you want it." Smoltz said. "I challenged him, but he did get the big hit."
McGwire, in a brief appearance in front of his locker, retrieved his tooth brush and went back to the showers, saying, "I don't have much to say, guws."
Willie McGee, who had one of the hits off Smoltz, said the right-hander's pitching "speaks for itself. The guy is just great."
"He has awfully good stuff. His reputation speaks for itself," said rookie Joseph McEwing, who went 0-for-3 against Smoltz, after getting three hits in each of the two previous games in the series.

Students share culture, successes
Two friends achieve ambition of escaping childhood poverty
By Phil Cauthon Special to the Kansan
Estevan Herrera grew up sleeping on the couch of his El Paso, Texas, apartment while his father worked graveyard shifts to provide the bare necessities for the family of seven. Yet he knew he was not poor. Poverty was what he saw when his family would pack into their Chevy station wagon and drive across the Rio Grande to visit his grandmother in Juarez, Mexico.
As the car wound its way through the rough streets of Juarez, Herera recalled seeing mothers holding their children begging, families living in cardboard boxes and barefoot children covered with dirt and sweat.
One of those children was Tomas Chacon, who peddled newspapers and shined shoes amidst the poverty in downtown Juarez, while his American counterparts across the river were in air-conditioned kindergarten classrooms.
Last year, Herrera and Chacón,
KU Spanish doctorate students, met on campus and quickly formed a friendship when they learned they came from hometowns, which lie side-by-side across the border sharing a 'bordere' culture.
Their worlds on each side of the border may have been as different as Mexico and the United States, but their family histories were both shaped by one ambition — to break out of the cycle of poverty.
Both paths led to the University of Kansas, where the two are teaching introductory Spanish courses. Herrera and Chacón recently worked together for the production of "Vampiros" (Vampires), a play they performed and recorded this spring. The play, a parody about political corruption in Mexico, was written and directed by Chacón and stars Herrera as the lead vampire. "Vampiros" is one of three plays that Chacón has had published.
Although their lives at the University have much in common, the contrasting experiences that brought them to the University make their chance meeting and friendship more incredible.
Maria Herrera blesses her grandson, Estevan, before he returns to the University of Kansas. Her house was Herrica's childhood link to Juarez, Mexico. Contribute art
Tomás' story
Chacon and his 11 siblings, mother and grandmother were accustomed to frequent moves around Juarez. The Chacon family always rented an apartment with three rooms — one room for the adults, one for the six sisters and the other for the six brothers.
The smell of caldo, a staple vegetable soup, regularly filled the home despite the windows wide open to combat the relentless heat. Because his mother insisted the large family eat together, Chacón often sat on the floor or on a crate.
When his father left the family, Chacon had no choice to give up school and go to work. He joined the masses of unemployed peddlers in the streets doing whatever it took to earn a few pesos.
"We were happy even without enough money or enough food," Chacón said. "Grandma always said it's not necessary to be rich or have a lot. It's necessary to be together as a family and to be at peace."
At age 12. Chacon left the streets and his family. He moved in with his other grandmother. Three years later, he finished elementary school — something many in Juarez never achieve.
Shortly before high school,a trip with his grandmother to a government publishing house changed his life.
"For the first time, I saw that words were metallic letters." Chacón recalls. "I realized I could create my own ideas around letters and words and express myself. It was then that I started writing poetry and crosswords."
He got a position making crosswords for 35 pesos a week — less than $3 a month. When he realized that most crosswords were
Herrera's parents knew that if they stayed in Mexico, their children would have little chance to escape poverty.
Estevan's story
published in New York, he knew he had to get to the United States
So his parents went to Los Angeles and soon after, Estevan was born. As parents of an American citizen, they were allowed to stay in the United States, and they later moved to El Paso, where Herrera grew up.
"That's why I call myself a 'free- childism.' Herrera said. "When my parents became citizens 15 years later, I was happy to have tutored them. There I was quizicing my parents on the presidents, the branches of government and the Constitution."
Moving to the United States did not immediately free the Herreras of poverty. To avoid crime-ridden government housing projects, the family of seven had to live in a tiny two-bedroom house.
"It wasn't until I was older that I realized the pains and struggles my parents suffered to give us better opportunities," he said.
Well before high school Herrera could speak Spanish and English fluently. His teachers often told him that he would go to college.
"It's that kind of positive reinforcement that drove me," Herrera said.
A different sort of motivation came from trips to visit his grandmother in Juarez. Herrera remembers the scene as his family's station wagon crossed the bridge over the border, surrounded by throngs of poor. Herrera's mother kept change in the car for the sunscorched women peddling crucifixes and plastic roses, children competing to wash the car's windshield and toddlers in torn clothes trained to hold tin cans.
"These people are so numerous that they become anonymous and more like part of the landscape than individuals fighting to live," Herrera said. "Every time we would see them, my parents would not let me forget that I should be very grateful

for the opportunities I had."
Crossing cultures
Herrera seized his opportunities and moved from El Paso to earn bachelor's and master's degrees at the University of Notre Dame. About the same time, Chacón was completing his bachelor's degree in Mexico City, but he knew that the Mexican university could only take him so far. The university's poorly equipped libraries and scarce resources led Chacón to apply to the University of New Mexico, where he earned his master's degree.
"When you are the only borderiso at KU, you can't help but accentuate the differences. So given the odds of finding someone in Lawrence from my hometown — well, it was quite a welcome surprise," Herrera said about finding Chacon.
By the time they met at the University of Kansas, both Herrera and Chacon had been away from El Paso and Juarez for several years. Now, the stark differences in their paths leading to Lawrence were overshadowed by their common "borderiso" culture.
"When I met Estevan," Chacón
said, "I found in him those things I was looking for. The customs, traditions, the behavior, idiomatic expressions, those were all things I missed very much."
Their lives at the University have taken them to a new culture but away from their families. Family functions are less frequent and incomplete, and their parents must go to church alone while others are surrounded by their families. Chacón's parents have no telephone, making communication rare.
"It was very hard at first," Adelina, Herrera's mother, said in Spanish. "But I know that they have left for something good. I am very proud of my children."
Last Christmas, the two friends toured downtown Juarez together. Chacón guided them through parts of town Herrera knew only from the window of his family's station wagon years ago. The streets still seethed with the poor and homeless struggling to just stay alive. But Chacona was not among them.
Now he was giving away his change and praying that they might escape Juarez's cycle of poverty as he did.

Music of the streets
PATRICK LOPEZ
Matthew Brown beats on his drum as the noon sun beats down on his brow. While many street musicians earn a living by travelling from town to town, Brown said
Musicians perform downtown concerts for spare change
Story by Ezra.Sykes
wo summers ago, John Erlinger stepped out onto the streets of St Louis with a guitar, two friends and a few songs he had memorized. Hoping that they could earn a little dough, the young group set out an empty guitar case on the filthy downtown street and began to pick and strum an old bluegrass tune. Despite the romantic picture of young artists trying to make an honest live
Despite the romantic picture of young artists just trying to make an honest liv
ing on the streets, reality painted a mean brushstroke.
Erlinger recalled his premier street performance. "It basically involved drunk people begging for the little change that we earned."
As flowers bloom in the spring, like wise does Lawrence. Some people creep out onto the streets to enjoy the warm weather and interaction with other folks. Some shop. Some panhandle. And some come to entertain.
Street musicians such as Erlinger have been popping up on Massachusetts Street more often in recent week,s and the trend probably will continue until summertime. By bringing their unique form of entertainment, using the sidewalk as their stage and store windows as their backdrop, street musicians can be considered entertaining or annoying, pests or heroes.

Police arrest man,woman on possible drug charges
A Lawrence man and woman were arrested at about 5 a.m. yesterday after police received a report that the smell of marijuana smoke was being emitted from their room at the Hampton Inn, 2300 W. Sixth St., said Sgt. George Wheeler of the Lawrence Police department.
Two bags of a substance resembling marijuana and about $1,000 were recovered after a search of the room, Wheeler said.
Olathe man arrested after hitting school bus
Charges the couple could face include possession of marijuana with the intent to sell and possession of drug paraphernalia.
A 19-year-old Olathe man was arrested at about a 2.m. yesterday after he reportedly led police on a brief car chase that started when the man yelled an obscenity at an officer as their vehicles were passing in the 1400 block of Ohio Street, said Lt. Schuyler Bailey of the KU Public Safety Office.
The officer turned his car around to pursue the 1992 Mazda, which was heading north on Ohio Street. The driver ran the stop sign at the intersection of 14th and Ohio streets, turned right and struck a school bus that was parked on the street facing east, Bailey said.
The car's tail end struck the front of the bus but did not stop. The driver continued on 14th Street and turned south on Tennessee Street, Bailey said.
The car, which had 4 passengers, finally pulled over in the 1400 block of Tennessee.
Charges the driver could face include operating under the influence of alcohol, leaving the scene of an accident, reckless driving and driving with a suspended license.

Gore announces money to aid tornado victims
HAYSVILLE — Tethered inside a National Guard helicopter, Vice President Al Gore crouched beside an open doorway yesterday as the aircraft slowly hovered over piles of rubble
scarring the Kansas prairie.
Shaking his head in disbelief, a grim-faced Gore peered down at neighbor hoods flattened by Monday's tornado.
Some 8,500 homes and businesses suffered damage, with nearly 1,200 buildings destroyed. In a deadly storm that left five people dead and thousands more homeless in Kansas.
Gore later stopped by Lynn and Gary Larkin's ravaged Haysville home and asked them if he could look inside. He spotted their car, its windows all smashed. Then he swapped a tomato story of his own, telling the Larkins how he and his wife were in a tombole years ago and the windows also were blown out of his car.
"We are going to be here for you," Gore reassured the couple.
The vice president announced yesterday that $5,7 million from the Department of Labor would fund short-term employment as part of the cleanup efforts, temporary security guards and other work that needs to be done. He told residents all the cleanup costs would be reimbursed.
"The United States of America is a community too, and all of the American people stand by you not just in this moment of loss but in the extended recovery period." Gore said.

Kosovo refugee in U.S. gives birth to citizen
MOUNT HOLLY, N.J. — A Kosovo refugee gave birth to an instant American citizen yesterday, a day after she was airlifted to safety from the Balkans, and her husband wants to name the baby "America."
The 7-pound, 8-ounce boy was born to Lebibe Karaliju, 21, and her husband, Naim, 28, at Virtua Health Memorial Hospital. It was the couple's first child.
Michael T. Snyder, the physician who delivered the full-term baby, said mother and child were doing fine, though Mrs. Karaliju was exhausted and dehydrated, and the baby was placed in a special nursery as a precaution. They were expected to remain in the hospital for at least two days.
The Karallius were among 453 refugees from Kosovo who arrived at Fort Dix on Wednesday in the first plane-load to be brought to the United States. The refugees will stay at the Army base for a few weeks while they are placed with families around the country.
Mrs. Karaliju had been taken to the hospital on a stretcher after her arrival in the United States because she appeared to be dehydrated.
During a news conference at the hospital, Karalij said through a translator he was glad his son is a U.S. citizen and would like to name him America, but he would have to discuss the idea with his wife first.
A child born on U.S. soil is automatically an American citizen.
Greenspan concerned about rapid expansion
WASHINGTON — Federal Reserve chairman Alan Greenspan called the economy's strong growth and low inflation "truly phenomenal" yesterday, but he also expressed worries about "imbalances in our expansion" — and that sent jitters through Wall Street.
Investors and analysts saw Greenspan's comments as a warning signal that even though America is enjoying the best combination of rapid growth, low unemployment and low inflation in three decades, the central bank is worried.
"Of most concern is how long this remarkable period of prosperity can be extended," Greenspan told an audience at an international conference on banking in Chicago. "There are imbalances in our expansion that, unless redressed, will bring this long run of strong growth and low inflation to a close."
As he has in the past, Greenspan expressed concern that the high-flying stock market could suddenly come back to earth, causing a reversal of the wealth effect that has powered consumer spending.
But Greenspan reserved his greatest worries for tight labor markets, which have driven unemployment down to a 29-year-low of 4.2 percent.

Leaders draft joint plan to end Kosovo conflict
BONN, Germany — Russia and the major Western powers set aside their differences about NATO airstrikes yesterday and drafted a joint plan to end the Kosovo conflict, including the deployment of an international force to keep the peace after the withdrawal of Yugoslav forces.
President Clinton and other Western officials welcomed Russia's backing for effective international civil and security presences in Kosovo, where a NATO campaign has failed to halt the expulsions of one-third of the ethnic Albanians in the southern Serb province since March.
Kosovo's most prominent ethnic Albanian leader told a news conference in Rome a day after he and his family were allowed to leave Yugoslavia that he favored an international peacekeeping force — including NATO — in his homeland.
"We need above all to create security in Kosovo so people can return," said Ibrahim Rugova, who was a negotiator for the ethnic Albanian delegation at the failed peace talks in Bamboouillet, France, that preceded the 6-week-old NATO air campaign.
NATO hopes getting Moscow on board in a common front will increase the diplomatic pressure on Yugoslav President Slobodan Milosevic to drop his resistance to an international military presence in Kosovo.

Web site to show commencement
By Kristi Reimer
kreimer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
For a ceremony immersed in more than a century of tradition, University of Kansas commencement is becoming increasingly high-tech.
The new Digital Jayhawk Web site (www.digitaljayhawk.org), an online media project administered by the School of Journalism, is making all kinds of new things possible, said Gary Hawke, the site's executive director.
Hawke said showing the May 23rd ceremony live on the Web — done in conjunction with campus TV station KUJH — enabled family and alumni around the world to watch, whereas only local viewers could see it on TV.
"The difference in doing things online is that your window of exposure is much, much greater," he said. "You can do things months in advance, then have the event itself, then there's a long archive period. A story has much longer shelf life if done in a complete way."
In addition to the broadcast, Hawke said he was focusing on site development for this and future commencements.
"We want to make a site that answers a lot of questions," he said.
For example, computer users this year will be able log on and read news articles about commencement, study the history and significance of regalia and find out how to get involved in the student alumni association.
They also will be able to watch clips of the chancellor's brunch with graduates and other video footage after the events take place.
In coming years, maps and the processional route will be posted on the site, as well as information about businesses such as motels and caterers.
"This is opening all kinds of things for us." Hawke said.
Other aspects of commencement will be the same as they have been for years and years. The University takes its traditions seriously and deviations are rare, said Jeff Weinberg, assistant to the chancellor.
The ceremony involves hundreds of people and months of planning, beginning in fall, Weinberg said. One of the few things that can't be planned by a committee is the weather. George McClearly, associate professor of geography and chairman of the
Logistics Committee, stays in touch with the National Weather Service up to the last minute.
This year more than 4,000 students are expected to participate in commencement activities. The procession along Memorial Drive will begin
at 2:30 p.m. and the ceremony at 3:30
— unless it rains.
In that case, radio stations and KU Information Services (864-3506) will have information about postponements.

Weekend hours will remain the same as they were during the semester: 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Saturday, and 12:30 to 4:30 p.m. On Sundays. After summer school begins, Watkins hours will return to the normal schedule of 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. on weekdays.
Randall Rock, chief of staff at Watkins, said that the end of finals and projects for students was typically a time when students could have routine care and checkups that they might have been putting off. He said that the health fee students paid for spring semester would cover them until summer school
Jim Boyle, interim director at Watkins, said that students who graduated could continue to be seen at the health center for one year after graduation if they continue to pay the health fee. The fee is $86 each for fall and spring semesters and $49.50 for summer.
began, so that students would not have to pay for visits, even after graduation.
Rock said that the student health fee would offer students some level of service as they make the transition from college to the work environment.
"The health center provides a health care transition from a family doctor to students when they come to the University," Rock said. "I hope we can also provide the transition from the University to the job world."
The fee covers students until the day before classes start in the next semester. Spring coverage this year would run out June 6, summer coverage Aug. 15 and fall coverage, Jan. 16.
Boyle said that paying the health fee would allow students to visit the health center as often as they needed without having office visit charges.
Graduates who pay the health fee and visit Watkins will have to pay for any procedures or medication they might require, but Boyle said that the health center offers most services for about 80 percent of the rates charged at other health centers in the community.
Rock said the health fee could be particularly valuable for students who would be in Lawrence this summer but would not be attending summer school.
A separate issue for students to think about concerning their coverage at Watkins is the availability of student insurance. Several comprehensive and basic plans are offered to students, including plans specifically for GTAs and GRAS, and plans offered through the state of Kansas.
Plans available to students are divided into many different cost scales depending on the age and marital status of the student as well as whether the student has any children.
Boyle said that the insurance plans offered to students compared very favorably with private plans students might find outside of the University.
"I think it is a lot cheaper here," Boyle said.
He said that students who were interested in either the student health fee or student insurance coverage could contact Watkins at 864-9500.

Restructuring higher education to benefit University, Washburn
Last week, Kansas legislators began a historic transition of higher education into a coordinated whole.
Both the House and Senate approved legislation that would restructure the nine-member Board of Regents to account for Washburn University and the state's community colleges and vocational technical schools. These legislative bodies did the correct thing in passing the bill.
Higher education reform will benefit the University of Kansas both directly and indirectly. Patience and support are needed during the transition period that will begin on July 1.
A direct benefit includes the promise of increased funding for faculty salaries in 2001.
Transferring credits from a community college should become a seamless process
Faculty salaries will increase, and more students will be able to afford education.
with the new system. When classes are compatible among all colleges, course duplication can be avoided.
Perhaps the most significant aspect of higher education reform is the move toward economic equality. For many, a community college is the only affordable means of higher education. Those persons deserve an adequate and equal education.
The bill's funding is a point of controversy. Community colleges and Washburn are financed locally through property taxes. After the transition, statewide
funding will be phased in.
Critics of reform are quick to point out that the bill's funding component will leave the University competing with more institutions for money. Such fears are unfounded. The new legislation is designed to improve all higher education.
State Sen. Barbara Lawrence, R-Wichita, chairwoman of the House-Senate conference committee on higher education, said getting the process implemented now was important.
The next few years of transition that will begin this summer are critical to the long-term success of the restructured system. The passage of new legislation can be the turning point for Kansas if colleges and legislators need to continue to work together to build a world-class system of higher education.

Movie ratings overdue for revision
History teaches us that systems are doomed to fail if they do not evolve to meet new standards. When it comes to the movie ratings authorized by the Motion Picture Association of America, time clearly is not on its side.
In short, the R rating isn't completing the job intended for it. To alert parents in advance about levels of violence and sexual content, the Motion Picture Association faces two options: Either revise the 31-year-old rating system, or increase the application of the NC-17 rating.
The R rating is used indiscriminately. The association applies the rating to movies as diverse as the bloody Saving Private Ryan to the fluffy Shakespeare in Love. The former picture contains wall-to-wall gore, while the latter's offenses amount to a few scattered shots
Increasing use of the NC-17 tag would help problems associated with the R rating.
of bare female breasts. To suggest that they belong in the same restrictive category is absurd.
Grouping violent films together with films containing mild sexual content may have made sense in the late 1960s, but it does a disservice in today's anything-goes culture.
The simple solution: Apply the NC-17 more often to those pictures that push the limits of graphic content.
ers, maintain a firm anti-NC-17 policy Few theaters are willing to carry pictures with the rating. Newspapers are reluctant to advertise NC-17 pictures. Major video outlets such as Blockbuster will not carry them in their stock.
The reason? Like the X rating, NC-17 gives people false worries about pornographic exploitation films. The difference is that the old X rating was never trademarked by the Motion Picture Association, allowing pornographers to pirate it. The NC-17 rating, however, is an officially sanctioned rating, like the PG and G ratings.
Any adjustments in the system will face resistance. Many Hollywood studios, such as Disney and Warner Broth-
The association needs to make a clear, unmistakable distinction between movies with adult themes and "adult" movies. Increased use of the NC-17 rating would help the job along nicely.

Summer of Sam: flicks and politics take stage
Perspective
The Summer of Sam will soon be upon us. Twice, in fact. This may always happen will
The more obvious appearance will be director Spike Lee's new thriller, Sum-
The film about 1970s serial killer David Berkowitz already has rustled feathers with its extreme levels of sexual and violent content. Lee has returned to the editing bays at Disney — which is financing the picture — in the hope of losing the film's NC-17 material and delivering a kinder, gentler slasher flick.

The other Sam making
waves is none other than Kansas' own Sen. Sam Brownback. It seems that everyone's favorite defender of family values and American morality has returned to his preferred whipping boy: the entertainment industry.
On Tuesday, Brownback and the Senate Commerce Committee staged a public hearing with the purpose of examining what Brownback referred to as the "culture of violence." The hearing, entitled "Marketing Violence to Children," had been scheduled before the school shooting in Littleton, Colo., but the stakes had increased substantially, to say the least.
"Over the past several years, our society seems to have become increasingly flooded with violent images — movies that depict teens killing their classmates; music with lyrics that glorify suicide, torture and murder; TV that trivializes the consequences of violence; and video games that simulate real-life killing and give points for each death." Brownback said.
Video screens set up in the hearing room beamed images of youth violence from films such as the horror entry Scream and the drug fable The Basketball Diaries. Morality watchdogs such as former Education Secretary Bill Bennett made an appearance and decried that major conglomerates like Disney were making money off violent images. Brownback's fellow senators made noise about subpoenaing entertainment companies' marketing documents and passing legislation that would make it a punishable crime to admit underage children to R-rated films.
All well and good. But attendees of the hearing didn't hear from the most important sources: the entertainment moguls
who OK and distribute the offending CDs, movies and video games.
Out of fairness to Brownback, he did issue invitations to the presidents and CEOs of Time Warner, Universal, Sony, Viacom, Sega, Nintendo and Hasbro. All seven groups refused to make an appearance at the hearing.
But it's not as though they can be blamed for not wanting to sit in the same room as Brownback. He, after all, is the same senator who staged similar anti-entertainment hearings in 1997 that basically blamed gangsta rap and heavy music for the decline of Western civilization.
We all remember how Brownback summoned a grieving parent who blamed Marilyn Manson's song lyrics for the suicide of his teen-aged son. How Brownback summoned anti-rap activist C. Delores Tucker, who demands nothing less than the censorship of any artist who doesn't produced Grated music. How Brownback summoned supposed experts on violence who attempted to link anti-social behavior with the billion-dollar entertainment business. How Brownback only allowed testimony from one recording industry CEO to provide some semblance of balance.
And we wonder why those seven CEOs declined this week's invitation? They would have been staring down the barrels of some very angry shotguns if they had decided to show.
Brownback is concerned. When he talks about how horrified he is that students are shooting their classmates to solve problems, I believe him.
But when he and his Senate colleagues talk about further regulation of the entertainment industry, I feel like ramming my fist through a wall. Aren't we tired of this nonsense yet? This shameless finger-pointing — "Blame the media," "Blame guns" — serves nobody except the politicians who want to score brownie points with anyone stupid enough to believe them.
The sad thing is that this grandstanding shows no sign of fading. Sen, Orrin Hatch, R.Utah, announced at Tuesday's hearing that he may ask the Justice Department to investigate ways in which the entertainment industry markets violence to young consumers. If Hatch gets his way, we can expect to hear a lot more fluff from moral guardian Brownback this summer.
If that's the case, then I'll be spending that time with my good friend Spike Lee.

Senator clarifies position on recreation center item
Well, it's certainly been an interesting week. A column in Tuesday's Kansan attacked me, and on Wednesday an editorial commended me for
J.D.
Jenkins
Guest columnist
In fact, I've been mentioned or quoted in the paper almost every day for three weeks. The unfortunate result of this has been to confuse many people as to what my position on certain issues really is. I want to clarify my views on the recreation center referendum and answer some of the unwarranted criticism that was directed at me earlier this week.
After the election, dozens of my constituents came up to me and said, "I didn't vote for this rec center and I don't know anyone who did." Because of the overwhelming opposition to the proposed center by the constituents with whom I talked, I wrote a petition that outlined some of the problems with the proposal and some specific examples of how students were misled as to what they were voting for. I hoped that by circulating this petition, I could gauge the opinion of the student body, and if as I thought, a majority of people were opposed to it. I would send the petitions to the Chancellor.
However, the column on Tuesday by Joe Walberg grossly misrepresented myself and my position. I was not offended by Walberg's disagreement with my political views, but rather with his insinuations that I am not fulfilling my responsibilities as a student senator and that my petition was a politically motivated effort.
Walberg, as a political science major, would surely agree that it is a senator's obligation to represent his or her constituents. The only reason I continued to oppose the referendum after it passed was, as I said above, because my constituents asked me to.
These students did not feel that their views were being properly addressed by the results of the referendum, and I kept up my campaign to represent their voices.
As to Walberg's second assertion — that I assume voters are dumb and don't value their opinions — this is completely untrue.
The other major issue for which I have been mentioned in the paper recently was a complaint I filed with the Attorney General, alleging that the elections commission was violating state law by holding closed hearings. I asked that my complaint against the recreation task force, alleging fraud, harassment, and other violations, be reinstated in an open hearing so that students could hear the decisions that were being made which affect them. In fact, all my actions on the recreation center issue from the beginning have aimed at making sure students are fairly informed on the issue and that their views are represented. I regret the inaccuracies and misinformation of Walberg's column, and in the future, I hope that he and any other students with questions or comments will e-mail me at cyberbob@ukans.edu.
Additionally, even the consultants paid by the task force admit that this facility will not meet the long-term needs of the University. I invite Mr. Walberg to talk to students, as I have done, and tell them these little-known facts. If this information had been included on signs, and on the referendum, would as many people have voted for it? I don't think so.
What I suggested is that the propaganda campaign by the recreation task force was so misleading that students could not have been reasonably expected to know what they were voting for, regardless of their intelligence. Walberg says the proposal was "detailed" and he read about the "incremental fees program" and "lots of other stuff." But how many people saw the size of the facility on the proposal or on signs? When I tell students that the new center will be about 88,500 square feet (smaller than Robinson and half the size of K-State's recreation center), many of them are surprised. After all, the task force's signs showed big pictures of K-State's rec center and suggested that the new facility would ensure that we no longer have the smallest rec center in the Big XII. Unfortunately, the new recreation center will still be the smallest in the Big XII, despite having one of the highest fees.
If Walberg had read the petition that he is against, he would see that nothing is farther from the truth.

Carrion bird feeder ruffles feathers

A piece of raw meat dangles on a metal hook outside a window of 203 Marvin Hall. As the meat gently sways in the wind, a tiny bird perches on the pinkish flesh, pecks at it for a moment and flutters away. Bills are in for thunder.
Silly sparrow, meat is for vultures.
And although vultures aren't common in these parts, seven students in a Building Technology II class produced a bird feeder specifically for carnivorous birds that have wingpsads of about four feet and facial features that could make a mirror shriek.
The assignment was to make a perch for a specific bird species, mainly for unusual types such as ostriches or emus, said Patrick Gleason, Kirkwood, Mo., sophomore and a member of the group.
The bird feeder consists of a steel shell meant to resemble vulture wings, a wooden perch and of course the chain connected to the meat hook that holds dinner — a piece of meat that looks to be a four- or five-pound roast.
"It's Dillon's choice grade A," said Gleason, smiling.
But no matter the quality of meat, the structure's raw centerpiece has ruffled some administrators' feathers.
"Obviously we get all kinds of interesting and unusual structures around here," said Cheryl Saladin, assistant to the dean of the School of Architecture and Urban Design. "But the project left the building a little vulnerable to the weather, and we were afraid it would attract bugs."
Dennis Domer, associate dean of the school, who was out of town yesterday and couldn't be reached for comment, had asked the group to remove the meat from the structure.
But, as of yesterday, the meat still was there.
"We're not protesting it,". Gleason said.
"We're just kind of ignoring it," added Marcus Carter, St. Louis senior.
But for some, it is harder to ignore the meat, which has hung outside the window since Monday.
Tami Nelson's studio desk sits right next to the window in 203 Marvin. After hearing of the group's plan to place their structure outside the window, she asked that they not place real meat on the hook.
"I didn't want bugs to get on our projects. That could ruin them," said Nelson, Houston junior, standing in the studio scattered with pensicles, rulers, papers and other drafting tools. "I told them beforehand that I would complain if they used real meat. I did it on the studio's behalf."
But in the end, Nelson said the window ornament wasn't such a problem after all.
"I thought it was going to be worse than it really was," she said.
Chris Smith. St. Louis junior, also has a desk in 203 Marvin.
"I was worried it was going to smell and have bugs, but there's no bad scent, and there's no bugs," he said. "It's fine with me."
Although the structure has caused a little ruckus, getting attention was one of the goals of the structure, Gleason and Carter said.
"It's kind of an in-your-face architecture piece — something that provokes reaction and causes someone to conjure up other images," Gleason said. "It's good to make people think and get out of their narrow-minded vision."
Last night, the meat still dangled outside the window, collecting scars from weather and decay.
Carter shook his head thinking of the meat's future.
"It continues to evolve in color," he said.

Editors, adviser resign from Kansas Review
By Jennifer Roush
jrush@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
A disagreement about political humor and editorial content has left the Kansas Review, a new conservative student newspaper at the University of Kansas, without its original faculty adviser, editor-in-chief and news editor.
Bruce Bublitz, former faculty adviser; Jeff Brownback, former editor-in-chief, and Jeff Thompson, former news editor, resigned late Sunday night because of creative differences with other staff members.
done publication of the paper.
Bublitz, Brownback and Thompson were named as staff members in Monday's Kansan article because the three resigned after the Kansan already had gone to press.
Bublitz, associate professor of business, said that he resigned as the Review's faculty adviser after he unsuccessfully tried to convince staff members to post-
"There was some disagreement as to what we were trying to accomplish," he said. "Some articles got published on page 2 of the paper without approval from the editor-in-chief."
Bublitz said that the articles in question made fun of certain groups at the University and could have been construed as offensive to environmentalists or homosexuals.
"That sort of Rush Limbaugh humor is funny to converted conservatives," he said. "But it turns off moderates."
Other staff members took a vote and decided to include the articles despite the objections of Bublitz, Brownback and Thompson.
Bublitz said that he didn't want to be involved with the paper if the staff would be allowed to print articles that the editor-in-chief hadn't approved.
"I don't want to be associated with an organization where the
troops can out-vote the editor," he said. "I understand that there's different philosophies, but the editor-in-chief makes the call."
Brownback, Ellsworth sophomore, also said that he resigned because of the differences of opinion regarding the paper's content.
"I didn't feel that what was represented our views," he said. "The tone of the paper changed from pro-conservative to anti-liberal."
Brownback said that although he hadn't heard anything about the paper since his resignation, he thought the Review probably still would be published.
"I think they'll continue and I wish them luck, but I think I'm finished with it," he said.
He said he didn't feel any resentment about the disagreement.
"It disappointed me that I was overruled, but I'm not bitter about it."
Casey Conneally, Review business manager, said that staff members had decided on the format and editorial content of the paper at least a week before it went to press. Then, Sunday night, Brownback changed his mind about the briefs on page 2.
"We weren't trying to hurt anyone," Connealy said. "We were just trying to do satire in the style of National Review. We were poking fun at ironies in politics and campus groups."
Connealy said he was disappointed that Brownback had left the paper. However, he said that the paper still would be published.
Connealy said that the new editor-in-chief would not be named until after a staff meeting this weekend.
Stacy Chain, Derby junior, has been appointed news editor and George Pisani, director of laboratories for biological sciences, is the new faculty adviser.

Haskell pow-wow to commemorate 1999 graduates
When commencement time arrives for KU students, graduates walk down the Hill.

Kansas staff writer
Haskell Indian Nations University's commencement, which takes place today at Haskell Stadium, isn't quite so subdued.
Dancers in full regalia will march down Massachusetts Street.
Thundershield, a Lawrence singing group, will sound its drum.
In honor of its graduates, Haskell will play host to a two-day Commencement Pow-Wow, which begins at 10:30 today at Haskell Stadium.
The pow-wow includes a downtown parade that starts at 10 a.m. tomorrow at Seventh and Massachusetts streets.
"it's an eye-opener," said Lori Tapahsono, pow-wow committee member. "People go downtown to shop Saturday morning and aren't expecting to see dancers."
Tapahonso said that people from all across the country, including Alaska, would be arriving to honor graduates.
About 20,000 people attended the three-day pow-wow last year, she said.
rapahonso said that attendance might be lower this year because the pow-wow would end a day early.
"We wanted to leave Mother's Day free," Tapahonso said.
The pow-wow will include dance competitions in eight varieties of Native American dance: Traditional, Straight, Grass, Fancy, Buckskin, Fancy Shawl, Southern Cloth and Jingle. Gourd dancing, an intertribal dance that occurs before the competitions, will begin at 4 p.m. today and tomorrow.
Thundershield, a group of mostly Haskell students, will be the Northern Drum, a place of honor within the pow-wow tradition.
The Northern Drum accompanies the grand entry of the participants.
Natasha Eagle Star, member of the Rosebud Sioux Nation, will be one of the graduates being honored
"You look forward to everything at a pow-wow," she said.
Eagle Star will be one of the graduating students being honored at the pow-wow.
She said she liked to watch the women's dancing in particular. Eagle Star's cousin, Michelle Guzman, Shoshone-Bannock, will be the Head Lady Dancer. Chaz Norcross, Ojibway/Grand Ronde, will be the Head Man Dancer.
Admission costs $5 for people 12 years of age and older.

Graduate students reward University's best teachers

Attendees at last night's Teacher Appreciation Banquet saw some of the University of Kansas' best professors writ large on the Kansas Ballroom's projector screen.
The evening started off with welcomes from Fred Rodriguez, director of the Center for Teaching Excellence, which sponsored the event, Chancellor Robert Hemenway, and Provost David Shulenburger.
Hemenway said that great professors were extremely important in reaching KU's goals.
"The relationship they have with graduate students is at the center of a research University," he said.
Prior to the first three speeches and during the dinner that followed them, a slide projector displayed pictures of each of the professors in action in the classroom.
Awards were given to 58 faculty from 51 departments at KU. Nearly 100 graduate students from the various departments presented the awards.
The first was Elizabeth Schultz, professor of English, who was in Japan and unable to attend the presentation.
Graduate students in departments around the University voted on this year's awards. Undergraduates voted last year, the first year of the awards.
The second, Charlene Muehlenhard, associate professor of psychology, said that she was shocked to be selected.
Rodriguez said that he could think of only two professors who had won the award both this year and last.
"There are so many good professors in our department." she said.

Some of the most-mentioned factors in nominating professors were accessibility to students, a pleasant demeanor and a wealth of knowledge. Several professors were also said to be simultaneously the best and the hardest in their departments.

Courtney Peltzer, graduate teaching assistant in Germanic languages and literatures, presented an award for Ernst Dick, professor of Germanic languages and literatures, and said that Dick was easily the toughest professor in the department.
"Everyone's always scared to take his class," she said.
Peltzer closed her speech with a spiel in German. She was the second presenter to speak in another language.
Charles Pine spoke in Chinese while Mark Cooley translated for the audience as they presented an award for Shengli Feng, assistant professor of East Asian languages and cultures. Both were East Asian languages and cultures GTAs.
Rodriguez said that undergraduate students would get to vote again in next year's awards as the two groups of students continued alternating.

Local students walk a day in officers' shoes
By Katie Burford
Kansan staff writer
Although Sarah Rooney is only 15 years old, she's already considering her future career. These days, she's thinking about basketball or law enforcement.
To find out more about the latter, the Central Junior High freshman choose to spend yesterday's Career Day at the KU Public Safety Office.
"I was curious to learn more about investigating crime," Rooney said.
Rooney and five of her classmates got to see first-hand what it was like to operate a radar gun, stop a car for a traffic violation and investigate a crime scene.
Verle Creek, 15, said his favorite part of the day was when he and his schoolmates helped an officer comb the Oliver Hall parking lot for cars that had been broken into the opposite night.
"He told us to look for cars with broken antennae," he said.
"Sure enough, we found two with missing antenna and they had been broken into."
Six cars in all had been burglarized in the lot. Several students went with the officers as they notified the car owners.
Josh Smith, 15, asked if he would receive credit for attending the session if he was hired as an officer after high school graduation.
The group had lunch with officers at the Kansas Union and later sat in on a training session about diversity
Most of the department's top brass was on hand at the Public Safety Office to present the students with a certificate commemorating the day.
"We hope we have sparked your interest," he said.
Lt. Schuyler Bailey offered students the opportunity to do another ride-along with officers.
When Director Ralph Olpin asked if any of them knew how much a police officer got paid, the students shook their heads.
"It pays more than flipping burgers," he said. "And you get the gratitude of the whole community — well, most of the community."
As the students waited for rides to take them home, several agreed that the most interesting part of the day had been seeing speeders step on their brakes as soon as they caught sight of the public safety officers' cars.

"It was really funny." Smith said.

Street musicians cite many reasons for playing downtown
Continued from page 1A
Since Erlinger's move from St. Louis to Lawrence, where he is now a KU freshman, he has received a much better response.
"We made something like $14 the first night we played in St. Louis," he said, "Our first night in Lawrence, we made $43.93."
Erlinger, whose musical taste ranges from old-time mountain music to early electronic music, said he and his friends usually jammed on bluegrass and delta blues tunes at their spot at 10th and Massachusetts streets. His friend Todd usually plays guitar, Jimmy's on the harmonica and Erlinger plays mandolin, banjo or guitar. Together, along with other various guest musicians, they make up The Jenkins Family.
"The best thing is that we meet a lot of interesting people," said Erlinger, describing some of their experiences. "One time we happened to meet a man from England who saw us playing and stopped to chat. He picked up the guitar and started wailing."
But handing your instrument over to the audience is not always wise. Ron Rainey, another local street musician and Lawrence resident, has been playing mandolin with his friends on Massachusetts Street for the past three years and has had a few problems.
"There've been instances where people randomly took out their frustration on us or tried to ease into our instruments and play them," he said. "Then, once they start playing, they won't give back."
But Rainey can't complain too much. He said that playing on the street could be
good practice for him; he also plays in a
good rock band called the Pale Mole Kines.
"It's nice to be able to practice and get immediate feedback," he said. "You have to really belt it out to beat out the traffic and the hum of downtown. You also have to be prepared to deal with people face to face."
And sometimes putting smiles on those faces can put bucks in a musician's pockets.
Josh Bowen, who often plays guitar with Rainey, said that during the years he spent in California in the early '90s, he could practically make a living carrying a guitar over his shoulder. One man even handed him $80 and bought him pizza for his musicianship one day. But California is far away.
"It's a different story making money in Lawrence," Bowen said. "It's harder
because there are so many college students
who don't have money in the first place"
who won't have money in the first place.
For Rainey, who works at the Glass
Onion, 624 W. 12th St., a restaurant that
closes during summer break, the money he
makes on the street can be the difference
between a healthy meal or a cheap snack.
"Sometimes during the summer, I might run out of money and, by playing, I can get enough for something to eat." Rainey said. "People don't like to see people on the street pestering them for money, but when you're playing music, at least you're doing something for it."
Aside from the money and regardless of the thrill of clapping and adulation, being a street musician can sometimes be entertaining for the entertainer.
"We've seen three fights, one racially motivated and the other two alcohol-and-female related," Erlinger said. "It's strange to watch fights and be playing fun music at the same time."
Bowen he saw a man thrown through a store window and was later questioned by a policeman as the suspect bodylauncher walked away.
"I've seen everything from fighting frat boys to horny girls go crazy; just about everything that drunk people on a Saturday night." he said.
The romantic picture of young artists just trying to make a living on the streets may not always hold up, but the musicians know there always will be someone to appreciate them.
At least Bowen thinks so.
"There's definitely a certain weird respect for the minstrel type," he said.

Social Welfare grads pledge to consider 'consequences' of future jobs
By Allan Davis Special to the Kansan
Some graduating seniors will work anywhere, for anyone, doing anything. All they want is a job.
But graduating seniors from the School of Social Welfare are taking a different course of action.
"We had graduating seniors sign a pledge stating that they will consider the environmental and social consequences of any career or job before accepting it," said Melinda Carden, Lenexa senior.
Carden said that 55 of the 62 students graduating with a Bachelor of Social Work degree already had signed the pledge, joining the Graduation Pledge Alliance. She said some of the seven others had called her and said they wanted to sign the pledge, so there would be almost 100 percent participation.
Erika Nutt, co-director of the Center for Community Outreach, said that the Graduation Pledge Alliance was important because it was a commitment to investigating the consequences of the jobs that students may take after they graduate.
"Clearly, there are many companies and organizations that are not socially or environmentally responsible," Nutt said, "Since I have taken the graduation pledge alliance, I will not seek employment by those companies.
"If more people would think about the consequences, either directly or indirectly, of the actions and policies of their employer, then the country would be a lot better off," she said.
Pledge signers received green ribbons to wear at graduation and a letter and a flier that discussed how to incorporate social responsibility into their job searches.
The Graduation Pledge Alliance started at Indiana's Manchester College and spread to several schools across the nation.
Nutt said that the Graduation Pledge Alliance at KU was initially the idea of Thad Holcombe of Ecumenical Christian Ministries and that the Center for Community Outreach took over the project last fall.
Carden said that Social Work Students Concerned About Retaining Ethics planned to continue social work students' involvement in the project next year.

Golf tournament to raise money for scholarships
By Amanda Kaschube Special to the Kansan
Educators and friends of the School of Education will take to the golf course at noon today to raise money for education scholarships.
The 6th annual Gale Sayers Benefit Golf Tournament will be held at Alvamar Country Club, 1800 Crossgate Drive, and will feature Sayers, former Chicago Bears running back and University of Kansas graduate.
Karen Symms Gallagher, dean of education, said Sayers donated his name to the tournament to attract more participants. School officials are hoping that 75 people will participate.
"People like talking to famous people," she said. "The tournament helps alums connect with students."
The event costs $150 for alums and $125 for educators. All proceeds go toward scholarships. Gallagher said the tournament had given at least 24 students scholarships to the University.
"The fee is expensive compared to most public courses," she said. "But, you get to play at a nice course, meet Gale Sayers and contribute money to the school."
The idea for the golf tournament began in Spring 1994 when the National Advisory Board for the School of Education brainstormed to create fund raising projects. Sayers was asked to be on the board, Gallagher said.
Jerry Colwell, KU alumnus and board member, said he joined the golf tournament because of his interest in the sport and Savers.
"He's a fun guy and an outstanding businessman," Colwell said. "We try to raise a minimum of $10,000 every year."
Kay Jones, another member of the board and KU graduate, said Sayers had made a tremendous effort to get the community involved with the University.
For those students who could not afford the entry fee but wanted to participate, the Advisory Board sponsored them. Gallagher said she contributed money for one student.
"In each foursome, there is at least one student," she said. "It's a good chance for them to meet with alums."
Along with the opportunity to play at Alvamar, participants also are served lunch, awarded prizes and have the chance to take a picture with Sayers.
Allison Rose Lopez, advancement placement officer for the School of Education, said Sayers would play one hole with each group because people enter the tournament with the expectation of meeting him.
"They really appreciate him," Lopez said. "He is an integral part of the whole tournament."
Gallagher said the tournament connected alumni to the University and to future alumni.
"A lot of alums realize the importance of scholarships, and they want to help future students," she said. "If you enjoy golf, it's a really fun way to contribute money to education."

Student's museum passion changes life
Special to the Kansan
On his weekly trip inside the main diorama at the Natural History Museum, museum employee Jason Wolvington has become used to the glass-eyed stares of frozen animals and astonished museum visitors.
Jason Wolvington, Lansing graduate student, is in charge of checking the temperature and the humidity for the Panorama of North American Animals, an exhibit in the Natural History Museum. This spring, Wolvington will become the third person at KU to earn a masters degree of historical administration in the natural history track of museum studies. Photo by Robyn Brooks/KANSAN
"Sometimes the kids point and tap," said Wolvington, Lansing graduate student, with a laugh. As he follows the small path deeper into the diorama, children do notice and their voices vibrate through the thick panes. He looks back for a few seconds, smiles and keeps moving to the back where he bends underneath a deer and changes the paper in a hydrothermograph, an instrument used to track humidity and temperature in the diorama.
1984
In June 1996, Wolvington started a summer job at the museum with one year left to earn a B.A. in biology and a B.S. in organismal biology. After graduating, he hoped to attend medical school. Instead, this spring he will be only the third person to graduate in the natural history track of KU's masters of historical administration in museum studies.
"My whole life I wanted to go to med school," Wolvington said. "I took the MCAT and had everything ready to go. The day I was going to send it off — I couldn't decide if that's what I wanted to do."
"He so obviously fit in the museum environment," Simmons said. "Some people walk in and immediately know this is what they want to do. Jason was one of those."
After working a summer in the herpetology department, Wolvington now is one of five assistants in the exhibits department. He feeds the live fish and bees, prepares labels, mounts exhibits and helps wherever needed.
John Simmons, the first KU graduate in natural history/museum studies, is the collections manager in herpetology (reptiles and amphibians) at the museum and Wolvington's first manager.
"When I'm not in class, I'm here," Wolvington said of his 25- to 30-hour work week. One experience that sealed his decision to work in museums occurred while he was changing the jar of sugar water for the museum's beehive, and a family
approached him with questions
"The family asked about the bees, and I answered their questions," Wolvington said. "And the family was so genuinely interested in what I was saying — the more I talked to them the more they listened."
"It hit me what an impact exhibits and public education have on the public. That was how I decided this was what I'd like to get into."
Wolvington's mother Patty agreed.
Wolvington's mother Patty agreed. "Working at a museum is not a surprise," she said, "He's always had a love for biology. Even when he was a youngster, he and his dad would turn over rocks searching for fossils."
in part because he's had a pace maker since age nine. At nights, his parents noticed that he would turm blue, and a visit to the doctor deter mined that his heartbeat would slow to dangerously low levels. The pace maker was inserted in his abdomen with extra wire left to stretch when he grew.
wolvington had been interested in becoming a pediatric cardiologist,
"He probably handled it better than his dad and I did." Patty Wolvington said. "He never used it as an excuse to get out of anything." Because of the pacemaker, he cannot play contact sports or be within 15 feet of a working microwave.
Instead of playing sports, Wolvington concentrated on music.
"It's a great stress reliever and a great hobby," he said. "I loved
marching band the most, but I never considered becoming a professional musician."
With the KU Marching Band, he traveled to Hawaii, New York and Japan. In band, he also met fellow musician, Stephanie Ortiz. The two were married last July.
As a junior, she started working in accounting at the museum a month before Wolvington began at the museum. She returns to the museum when the two volunteer together.
"He takes me on tours and explains thing to me," she said. "It gets me interested, too."
After school, Wolvington said he would like to stay in the area and work as an exhibit designer or in public education.
"I really enjoy working with 4-to-6-year-olds," he said. "With that age group, they know a lot, and they learn so much." At the museum, he has worked on exhibits and workshops for children.
"He's wonderful with the public and especially groups of schoolchildren," his mother said. "He's like velcro with kids. He would really be an asset to any museum."
Wolvington said jobs in natural history in this area include the Topeka and Kansas City zoos and nature centers.
"The problem I'm running into more than other people I know is that, besides the KU Natural History Museum, the next closest major natural history museums are found in Denver and Chicago," he said.
Simmons agreed, but said that most museum employees make a sacrifice to do what they love doing.
"There are jobs, but it's hard to break into the field." Simmons said. "There is a calling, and no one does it for the money. You won't starve, but you'll never get rich."
Soon, another museum may have Jason Wolvington working and adding his special touch. And he knows he shouldn't spend too much time in dioramas.
"The goal for a diorama is to freeze one moment in time and leave it up to the imagination of the visitor," he said. "If you leave the outcome up to the imagination, then you know you've succeeded."

Area dinner theaters offer entertainment
By Corie Waters
Special to the Kansan
Students who are bored with the same old bars, movies and restaurants can take a road trip to a Kansas City dinner theater for something different.
Students can choose from several area theaters for a night of dinner and drama. Area audience-interactive theaters include the Martin City Melodrama & Vaudeville Co., 13440 Holmes, and Mardi Gras Murders, 418 NW Englewood Rd. The New Theatre Restaurant, 9229 Foster, allows the audience to sit back, watch and dine.
Those who think dinner theaters are just for older people can think again.
"Although we don't focus on a younger crowd, it isn't unusual to see college-age students here on dates and special occasions," said Terry Faulkner, director of communications for the New Theatre Restaurant.
Faulkner said a typical night starts at 6 p.m. and ends at 10 p.m. and costs between $20 and $36 per person. Included in the package is a gourmet American cuisine buffet and about a 2 1/2 hour
show that usually features a guest star.
"It's fun to see Barney Fife from The Andy Griffith Show and Mrs. Garrett from The Facts of Life, but some of the scripts are inappropriate for a younger generation," said Doug Neill, Shawnee senior.
A less formal and less expensive alternative is the Martin City Melodrama & Vaudeville Co.
Some groups have discovered that dinner theaters can be good clean fun for a change of pace.
Tickets include a buffet catered by RC's Restaurant and Lounge and two shows. They cost between $4.99 and $19.99 depending on the night.
"Last semester, a friend and I went to a dinner theater in Chicago for another friend's sorority function," said Deneale Arand, Tulsa junior. "We liked how the sorority and fraternity members could interact with the actors and each other, so we decided to call around to find a place for Mom's Day."
Arand decided on Mardi Gras Murders, where tickets were $38.50 per person and included dinner, the play and coffee.

By Scott Hollis Special to the Konsor
Ritisha Amin walked down the dimly lighted aisle, guiding her friends to a small table halfway from the stage.
Ten minutes later, the lights went down and a spotlight shone bright on the master of ceremonies as he sauntered on stage. The crowd cheered in anticipation.
Immediately, the comedian started up a conversation with a couple sitting close to the front of the stage. He asked the guy for a cigarette and made a funny remark to the man's girlfriend.
For some University of Kansas students, going to comedy clubs is a way to get away from Lawrence nightlife. Stanford's Comedy House, 543 Westport Rd. in Kansas City, Mo., is host to live comedians seven nights a week.
Amin, Olathe junior,
laughed, knowing that could
have been her. A seasoned
patron of the club, she now
knows better than to sit in
the front row.
Amin and her friends said
going out in Kansas City almost always means going to the comedy club. They go to other bars in Westport, but regularly visit Stanford's Craig Glazer, co-owner of Stanford's, said he sees a lot of people with KU shirts and hats come in.
"KU comes here because we preview a lot of people in the entertainment business," he said.
Stanford's is the No. 1 comedy club in the Midwest and No. 3 in the United States according to Variety and Rolling Stone magazines. Bigname comedy acts such as Pauley Shore, Tommy Chong and Jimmy Walker performed at Stanford's recently, Glazer said. Other notable comedians who performed in the past include Jerry Seinfeld, Louie Anderson, Sinbad, Ellen Degeneres and Kansas City native Eddie Griffin.
"It it's easier to say who hasn't been here than to say who has," he said.
Westerman said she had seen "Good Times" J.J. Walker at Stanford's recently.
Stanford's also develops local comedians which Glazer describes as a "farm team." Sinbad and Eddie Griffin both started their Hollywood careers at Stanford's.
"He's developed a belly, he looked old and didn't have any hair," she said. "But he said 'dy-no-mite' for old-times sake."
"What's neat for KU students is you can really discover a future movie star," Glazer said. "When Jerry Seinfeld played here, it was one of the first places he did a week long performance at. He didn't draw that many people, honestly."
Kansas City's other comedy house is ComedySportz. It offers competitive, improvisational humor. There are two teams, named the Sharks and the Jets, who compete for points by playing a series of improvisational games.
The audience gives the comedians suggestions to base their skits on. The format is similar to a live sporting event, but it is made up of comedians.

Restaurants serve budget gourmet
By Kami Bremver
Alice Ankrom and her boyfriend, James Grandin, whom she calls the "coupon king," collected nearly 200 coupon books so they could get bargain meals. Their favorite is the two-for-one pizza and salad buffet coupon for Mr. Gatti's, 3514 Clinton Pkwy.
Special to the Kansan
Ankrom, Quincy, III., senior, and Grandin, Olathe junior, are among the increasing number of KU students who go out of their way to find cheap eats in Lawrence — some to save a buck, others to avoid taking a student loan.
"You can eat affordably all around town," said Gunner Fox, Kansas City, Mo., senior. For breakfast, Fox recommends the "Traditional Day Starrier" at First Watch, 2540 Iowa St., which he describes as a dependable breakfast of eggs, potatoes, and toast.
Paradise Cafe, 728 Massachusetts St., is a restaurant that comes to mind for most students only when Mom and Dad are coming to town to pick up the tab. Fox and his girlfriend, Sarah Beth McCardle, St. Louis senior, go there for cheap lunches and enjoy
Teller's, 746 Massachusetts St., has an unfair reputation for being fairly pricey, Fox said.
the gardenburger and the "No More Hard Times" red-beans-and-rice special served with corn bread.
"People don't realize you can go to Teller's and split a really good wood-fired pizza for $4," Fox said.
Many restaurants serve portions that are more than adequate for two. By splitting meals, you eliminate the problem of left-overs sitting in the fridge until they resemble a fourth grade science experiment.
Joni Koehler, McPheron freshman, and Shazia Ahmad, St. Louis freshman, went to Bambino's Italian Cafe, 1801 Massachusetts St., split a pasta and went home with left-overs—all for less than $3.50 a person.
“It’s not too fancy, but it’s a good meal that is cost effective,” Ahmad said.
Buffets are for the customer who is interested in quantity.
The Plum Tree, 2622 Iowa St., buffet is the favorite place of Jesse McGraw, Olathe junior.
"It's good because it is cheap, and the atmosphere eases the tension," McGraw said.
Cheap meals are good for the pocketbook but not always for the well-being. Ann Chapman, dietician at Watkins Health Center, recommends that students evaluate what they are eating to make sure they are getting a balanced diet. Chapman suggests that before eating, stop and assess the meal to see if all five food groups are represented.
Chapman said that there were no real immediate health risks to dining out repeatedly. But Chapman warns students that many restaurants serve high-fat foods. People who eat a high-fat diet often gain weight and can feel sluggish.
Restaurants do exist that will make you feel better physically as well as financially.
The Glass Onion, 624 W. 4th St. caters to customers who don't eat red meat and is a stopover for cost-conscious, healthy eaters.
Med students enjoy tastes of 39th St.
"We do everything we can to keep prices down to target the student pocket book," said Nick Beck, manager.

Special to the Kansan
There's a little-known street in midtown Kansas City that boasts 17 of the most diverse restaurants in the city.
Thirty-Ninth Street runs east to west in front of the KU Medical Center. In the three blocks west of the campus, a hungry student could eat food ranging from Cajun to Vietnamese and from affordable deli meals to gourmet meals that cost $24 per entree.
Its proximity to the Med Center makes it an ideal lunch spot for Med Center students and faculty.
City." Brock said.
Susan Brock, administrative officer of the history and philosophy of medicine department, orders lunch delivered from the New York-style deli d'Bronx. 3904 Bell St., for student meetings in her department.
"I think it's the best pizza in Kansas
When d'Bronx opened 10 years ago, it was one of the first restaurants on the street.
"We were voted the sixth-best deli in the nation," said Janet Bloom, coowner of the d'Bronx. "We beat out all of the delis in New York."
The quality of food and atmosphere that made it high on the Zagat Survey keep d'Bronx's patrons coming back.
"When my mother comes into town every year or two from England, she loves to come here," said Tony Thornberry, Waldo resident and d'Bronx regular customer for eight years. "She thinks it's very American. She likes the mom-and-non style."
Med Center students who have spent time in Lawrence may get a familiar feeling when dining on 39th Street.
"It's like going to Mass. Street." said
Dr. P
NEW YORK STREET
Bryan Franklin, Shawnee junior. "It's that same kind of feeling. There's people on the streets, and the food is good."
"You can get variety and easily go to different restaurants," said Noidel Graham, Overland Park fourth-year medical student. "There's every type of food you want, and it's all very good."
The easiest way to get to the area is to follow the signs for the Med Center from Interstate 35. The signs lead south off I-35 onto the 7th Street Trafficway, which intersects with 39th Street.

The undead rule over live actors in special effects extravaganza

MOVIE REVIEW
The Mummy Rating : B+
By Brendan Walsh Kansan movie critic
In Stevie Wonder's classic song *Superstition* he sang "When you believe in things that you don't understand, then you suffer." That was good advice for treasure seekers and archeologists planning on excavating tombs, whether in Indiana Jones or The Mummy.
In 1925, Rick O'Connell (Brendan Fraser)
is a treasure hunter who, along with a brother-sister team of Egyptologists, Evelyn (Rachel Weisz) and Jonathan (John Hannah), searches for the mythical city of Hamunaptra. Although Hamunaptra is thought to contain all the riches of Egypt, it also has the foreboding distinction of being known as the City of the Dead.
who's been in a catatonic state for the past 3,000 years. Boy, do they regret that.
When O'Connell's group and a competing team of pilfers stumble upon the City of the Dead, they open the wrong treasure chests and chant the wrong things and mistakenly awaken Imhotep, a mummy
In Imhotep's quest to waken his dead mummy girlfriend, he unleashes a variety of plagues upon the land, mixing Biblical prophecy with pseudo-Egyptian curses. O'Connell and company do their best to save the world from the mummy's libidomotivated destruction.
The set designers' recreation of 1719 B.C. Thebes is absolutely amazing. The "historical" scenes in which the audience learns the history behind Imhotep shows
Almost equally amazing are The Mummy's special effects. There are apparently four distinct levels in the hierarchy of mummies. In ascending order, there are the undead, who are basically ordinary people who walk around like zombies and have open sores on their faces; there are your average mummies, who act as blind attackers and can usually be destroyed with a couple of shotgun blasts; the royal guard mummies, who,
ancient Egypt in all its grandeur. If Cleopatra had a set as beautiful as this one, Elizabeth Taylor would be hardly noticeable.
armed with shields and swords, are very clever and more difficult to kill; then there's the king mummy, Imhotep himself. This huge variety of mummies and their varying powers make for a cornucopia of special effects opportunities.
Although the scenery and special effects couldn't have been done any better, there's a lot that could have been improved. The Arab stereotypes portrayed in the film might have worked in the 1933 version of this film, but they're quite distracting in this day and age. None of the Arab characters are heroic, and most are shown as being either crazy, wacky guys who run around screaming unintelligible things, or greedy men out for profit at any cost.
Fraser, Weisz, and the rest of the cast all do an adequate job of providing the occasional bit of dialogue between special effects. Hannah delivers witticisms at incredibly inappropriate times, à la Indiana Jones, but they're usually somewhat funny and not too distracting. Anyone looking for advice on how to pluck their eyebrows should pay special attention to Weisz's brow.
Although this movie has a lot in common with the Indiana Jones series, there's one significant difference that makes that movie better than The Mummy. In Indiana Jones, Indiana learned the secrets of the tombs in such a way that the audience understood what was going on and discovered secrets along with him. In The Mummy, the puzzles are solved in Evelyn's head and her solutions are never revealed.
Suburban megaplexes are a blight on the landscape, and well as a destroyer of smaller movie houses with character. That said, a movie like The Mummy is best appreciated in one of the giant theaters. The landscape and special effects are most impressive on the screen the size of Rhode Island.
Family Values' CD no match for individual band albums
MUSIC REVIEW
"Family Values"
Live Tour
Rating : C
By Matt Cox Kansan music critic
Too many problems plague this live album, but it still is worth a listen if you're a fan.
The tour featured Korn, Ice Cube, Orgy, Limp Bizkit, Rammstein and Incubus and raided the United States last fall. And now you can try to relive the experience through the live album.
The CD starts off with Incubus' New Skin, a straight-ahead hardcore rap tune in the 311 style, except more intense and powerful.

THE BIGGEST VIEWS OF VIEW POP

Rammstein
ICE CUBE

A ROLL N'ROLL VIRTUAL ARRAY
Contributed art
The song starts with congas as though it were going to be a Billy Joel tune, but the guitars and drums come crunching in, killing that idea.
Orgy is the next band featured. They start off with Dissention, a song about conforming to the world. The song gets old fairly quickly, but lead singer Jay Gordon tries to liven it up by saying the "f" word a lot.
They end their little set with their hit cover Blue Monday. It starts off really fast, then slows down, then picks up the pace again. Their attempt at innovation just sounds like Orgy has a horrible time sustaining the tempo. However, it still has a decent effect, but not compared to their non-live version.
Limp Bizkit is horrible live. They suffer from a syndrome that many hardcore bands do today. The guitars can't sustain rhythms well and lead singer/screamer Fred Durst can't hold a note at all. Their live rendition of George Michael's Faith is worse than their radio version. There is no separation of the instruments; they all bang together to form ear-splitting noise.
They do another cover. This time House of Pain's Jump Around is the victim. The only difference is that they added hardcore guitars to the chorus. It is okay and actually better than Everlast's live remix that the former House of Pain member performs on tour with Lenny Kravitz and the Black Crowes.
Luckily Ice Cube follows Limp's lame set. He
Freak on a Leash sounds so much better than their album version. Jonathan Davis' vocals are the most polished live compared to all the other singers besides Ice Cube. They end their set with Got the Life.The bass player is just as annoying as he is on their album version. He can't play but tries to slap the rhythm of the song. It takes away from the song.
starts with his oldie Check Yo Self and leads the song off by staging a fight with an audience member. It's really effective. The live beats are as mesmerizing as his albums and his style in front of a crowd lacks nothing.
Then in comes the German metal band Rammstein. Their only cut on the compilation, *Du Hast*, starts off with a very promising intense metal riff. Then it never ends and lead singer Chris Schneider starts singing "Du ... du hast" about 12 times. Keyboard samples come in that sound like space effects from the techno mogul Moby.
Finally, Korn takes the rest of the album to spout their current hits.
If you must have a live version of one of these bands because you are a devoted fan, go for it, but if you are looking for quality, buy their individual albums.
Blur is unlucky with 13
MUSIC REVISED Blur 13 Rating : F
Long ago, in the neato land of soccer video games, commercials and rock radio was the hit Song 2. It was in and out in under two minutes flat and we all wanted to hear more of "Woo-hoo." Clever hook.
The hum-drum, boredom and drone that define Blur return with their latest album. 13.
By Matt Cox
Kansan music critic
So, we all listened to Blur's self-titled album with anticipation of it being energetic, but instead we disappointingly spoozed.
13 stays faithful to that style.
To stay faithful to that style.
First of all, the album sounds like it was recorded in a basement by rookie engineers. Guitars are sometimes out of tune and unbalanced. It sounds like you are listening to mud most of the time.
However, 18 offers more than just horribly recorded mud. There are bad songs as well.

B. L. U.R.E.M.I. is a really innovative song. The title is ingeniously a combination of their band name and their direct record company EMI Deep.
Apparently the lyrics are about the relationship with the company. Too bad you can hardly hear the vocals to make out whatever lead singer Damon Albarn is saying in that cool Brit accent.
When you listen, you automatically think, "Ah! So this is the song they hoped to be the next Song 2."
The problem is, you can't tap your foot to it because the drums never find a solid tempo. It's as if everything about this song were intended to be bad.
These problems also plague the likes of Bugman. A typical Everclear-like guitar riff starts the
Albarn sings "They let me out in the summer ... So I can look for another Bugman." I can relate. I just hate the search for my fellow bugs.

song but then an annoying distortion effect is applied to the guitar, which makes the rest of the song difficult to listen to.
**Trailer Park spouts a droning guitar chord with a trippy effect for four minutes while Albarn feels sorry for himself for losing his girl. He sings "I lost my girl to the Rolling Stones." Ouch! Couldn't compete with human artifacts eh, Albarn? Don't worry, they'll
Okay... the good parts ... er ... part.
*Battle* is the highlight on the record.
Of course it would be more suited for a Halloween-music record. Start this track at 4:30 on a Tuesday morning.
Your roommate will be freaked out, guaranteed.
The vocals repeat in an eerie echo with guitar strings plucking high notes with tons of echo. The effect is reminiscent of any part in a horror flick when you know someone is about to die. It's plain scary.

Kansas done in by Oral Roberts in 'one inning'
Batt Mtait
sports@kansas.com
Kansas sportswriter
Twenty minutes before game time, first baseman Chad King sat in the dugout with his warmup jacket on expecting not to play. By game time, King was added to the line-up in place of Ryan Klocksien, and during the game King delivered.
"Great addition, wouldn't you say," Coach Bobby Randall said.
King, a senior, has been the Jayhawk's regular first baseman all season long, but last night he was initially benched in favor of the freshman. Using that as motivation King delivered two hits, including his fifth home run of the season, three RBI and made a stellar play at first base to rob Oral Roberts' left fielder Eric Vandeventer of a base hit.
However, despite King's performance, the Jayhawks fell 6-4 in another closely contested game.
The game saw that one big thing that King talked of, but it was an Oral Roberts five-run fourth.
"Our pitching was all right, our hitting was all right and I thought we played pretty well," King said. "But we didn't have anything outstanding. It's going to take one big game or one big play."
"That was a winnable game," King said. "We were in it until the last inning, really only the one big inning hurt us."
That inning saw two Golden Eagle home runs, one Jayhawk error and all but knocked starter Pete Smart out of the game.
Smart pitched a career-high six innings, allowing eight hits and striking out five, but surrendered six runs that were the difference.
Reliever Brian Schriner came in to finish the game and pitched well over the final three innings. Schriner allowed no hits, no runs and struck out three in relief of Smart, but the Kansas offense couldn't buy a break.
Occasionally the Jayhawks threatened, but any Kansas rally was thwarted by a bad break. With runners on first and second in the eighth inning, John Nelson (Kansas' leading hitter) stepped to the plate and lined a shot to first base. The ball was snared by the Oral Roberts first baseman, he tagged the bag for the double play and the inning, and consequently the threat was over.
"We just can't drive in runs," Randall said. "We should've scored more runs tonight, and we left too many men on base. It was the same old story, we just struck out too many times with men on base."
The Jayhawks struck out nine times last night, adding to the previous school record of 440 strikeouts this season.
These two teams will do battle again tonight at Hoglund Ballpark before hitting the road for two games this weekend at Oral Roberts. Freshman Dan Olson is expected to start for Kansas. Olson's last start came against Kansas State on May 1. He allowed only one run on four hits, but was pulled from the game in the sixth after striking out five.
The loss drops the Jayhawks to 11-38 on the year and moves them to within one loss of tying another for most losses in a season.
Tonight's game will start at 7 p.m.

Skimming along the water at 30 miles per hour, Hannah Jorgenson hits the ramp and flies through the air, her skis point up and away from her body.
On good jumps, Jorgenson keeps her skis straight and her legs underneath her when she hits the water.
when she competes for the Kansas water ski club team, the bad jumps tend to outnumber the good jumps, but that's what Jorgenson loves about it.
"The first time I ever jumped. I was at a tournament, and I ate it," she said. "But I popped up and loved it. It's an adrenaline rush."
On bad jumps, her legs sway, her arms flail and she swallows about five gallons of water.
Jorgenson, Denver senior and club president, is one of 65 members who participate in about nine tournaments throughout the year
though the majority of the season is in the fall, spring gives the members time to practice, braving the ice-cold water at Mo Kan Lake.
The team rents time at Mo-Kan from a professional team which uses the lake in summer. Right off the eastbound lanes of Kansas Highway 10 near Twin Oaks golf course, the lake is used for water sking only. The team practices there from 2 to 5 p.m. Monday through Thursday.
"Basically what you see on ESPN is what we do," said team captain Kyle Brule, Kansas City.

Track to warm up in Iowa before conference meet
By Mike Miller
By Mike Miller
sports@kansan.com
Kansan sportswriter
Though a meet is scheduled next weekend at Emporia, the Iowa Invitational is the last big competition before conference. But don't expect the Jayhawks to do anything unusual.
The men's and women's track teams travel to Ames, Iowa today and will compete in the Iowa Invitational, one of two tune-ups before the Big 12 Conference meet.
"We'll concentrate on doing particular things with individuals to prepare them for conference," Coach Gary Schwartz said. "We just want to keep them progressing along to peak in a couple weeks."
Which means that few athletes will compete in multiple events, and some runners will decrease workloads and focus on speed events.
TRACK AND FIELD
Sophomore Charlie Gruber, ranked ninth nationally in the 1,500 meters and tenth in the 800 meters, will run the 800, focusing on his shorter event.
"We're not really sure where in the conference we want to run Charlie yet," Schwartz
said. "We don't want to make any decisions about conference until we have to."
Gruber also holds the top time in the Big 12 in the 1,500 and has the second fastest time in the 800.
But Gruber is not the only Jayhawk ranked nationally.

Freshman Andrea Bulat is ranked sixth in the lavelin.
Sophomore Andrea Branson is ranked fifth in the pole vault and has the top pole vault mark in the Big 12. Her vault last weekend of 12-9 1/2 was her highest since April 10, which made her confident for the rest of the season.
while senior Candy Mason is ranked fifth in the pole vault.
"I see myself going over 13 feet the rest of the year," she said.
Kansas will not enter any relays this weekend to decrease further wear and tear.
sophomore Scott Russell, who will compete in both the javelin and the hammer throw. Russell is ranked fifth nationally in the javelin and 16th in the hammer throw, but dominates the Big 12 rankings. He is ranked first in the hammer, second in the javelin, third in the discus and eighth in the shot put.
The only athlete competing in multiple events this weekend is
Jake LeTournou, back-up quarterback for the Kansas football team, will compete in the javelin for the first time this year. He was a late addition in the season and practiced for the first time this week.
Commentary
Barry Sanders missing camp, tired of losing his father says
His thighs are as big as basketballs. His stance portrays the athletic prowess he is known to possess.
Despite all the hoopla that surrounds him when he returns to Wichita, Barry Sanders still makes time for the lesser-known people — seeing his sister play basketball, watching his cousin walk across the stage at graduation.
His presence in the stands at the Wichita North gym — where he must have once sat as a student cheering at a pep assembly — creates a distraction. Not only are the fans gawking at him, the girls on the court are, too. His sister stops to talk to him in the middle of a play. The ball sails past her out of bounds.
Sanders has been a class act in the world of sports since his 1980 Heisman Trophy win. So what has happened to him during the off season?
Officials in the Lions' front office say they haven't heard from Sanders since the off season. He didn't attend a

mandatory minicamp held April 23-25 at the Silverdome.
A class act like Sanders playing hooky from training camp is like Allen Iverson winning the NBA scoring title — oh, wait a minute. Something must be askew in the Detroit front office to keep Sanders away. Or maybe he's just tired of losing.
Speaking of Wichitans, I had a friend once tell me that all great athletes could be linked back to Wichita. I don't know if I'd go as far as to say all, but he brought up some interesting points. Barry Sanders, Wichita North. Lynette Woodard, arguably the greatest female basketball player ever, graduated from Wichita North. The greatest miler, Jim Ryun — Wichita East grad. So much for the obvious.
That's what Sander's father, William, told The Associated Press. He said his son was "sick of losing, sick of the whole situation."
Who can blame him? Despite compiling 15,268 yards in his 10 seasons with the Lions, the Lions continue to lose. Last year, they ended with a 5-11 record.
Now for the obscure — Michael Jordan played in the McDonald's All-American game at Wichita State's Henry Levitt arena.
I just hope Sanders doesn't retire and sticks around long enough to break Walter Payton's career rushing record, of which he is just 1,458 yards short.
What about the up-and-coming stars of the athletic world? Oh yeah, that's taken care of. Darren Dreifort, one of the Dodgers' top pitchers, pitched for Wichita State.
Why is the Kansas baseball team so bad? Not enough country music. Every baseball team I've ever been around that experiences any degree of success listens to country music.
Who knows? Couldn't hurt the team's record any.
While I don't know any of the baseball boys, a friend who hangs out with them quite frequently has assured me they do not listen to country music.

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday:
Looks like you could advance in your career this year, but there's going to be a test. Figure out what you need to study in May, so you can invest in what you need by June. In August, the bounty comes home to you, and in November, you're able to get the work you love, if you pass the test. By April, you should finally have enough.
To get the advantage, check the day's rating: 10 is the easiest day, 0 the most challenging.
Aries (March 21-April 19): Today is a 6.
You're one of the few people who's still pushing to get more done. Others have given up or have settled into an old routine. If there's still more you'd like to accomplish, you have to reenergize them, which may not be easy.
Get a trusted aid to help you light a fire under the others.
Taurus (April 20-May 20): Today is a 4.
Taurus (April 20-May 20): Today is a 4.
There will be a quiz today. Somebody's going to ask if you've finished the assignment. Knowing you, you probably have. Just be aware that some of these questions might be tough, so review your list one more time.
Gemini (May 21-June 21): Today is a d 6.
This might be a pretty good weekend for travel, if you can get a few obligations out of the way. Somebody might be leaning on you to finish something you promised. This is something you've been avoiding. Just do the thing so you can get out of town.
Cancer (June 22-July 22): Today is a 5.
Cancer (June 22- July 22) is today a 3.
You want financial security, you need to figure out how to get it. Stocks and bonds? Piggy bank? There are lots of different ways to provide for your future, and today you'll be wise to study several. Doing the homework could make the difference between success and failure.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Today is a 5.
Instead of getting better today, things may seem to be getting worse. It's just sort of a breakdown before you get to the breakthrough – everything steps functioning, then you put in a correction or come up with a new idea, and voilà Things work better than ever.
Leo (Julv 23-Aua. 22): Today is a 5.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Today is a 5.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Today is a 5.
You may be started to find a whole pocket of work that still needs to be done. It might have even been somebody else's responsibility, but now it’s been dumped on you. This happens because you’re the person best able to handle it. Just do the best you can
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Today is a 6.
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Today is a 4.
For a brief moment you've got an excellent base for a romantic commitment. Seize the day and declare your love. It might be difficult while you're thinking about it, but once it's done, everything else will be easy, especially if your sweetheart does the same thing back.
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Today is a 4.
You could have an interesting get-together with friends at your house tonight with different sorts of people, who have interesting stories to tell. If you know people like that, go ahead and gather them together, especially the ones in your neighborhood
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Today is a 5.
In the next few days you could get in a lot of good study time. Do it on purpose. Don't wait for somebody to assign homework. Figure out what you need to learn next to advance in your career, and launch a study program of your own.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Today is a 5.
Though this is not a good day to spend money, it is a good day to figure out how to make more. It's also a good time to go through your accounts and put everything into neat rows. This doesn't mean you can't have fun, too. A date tonight looks like it'll be outrageous.
Aquarius Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Today is a 5.
You'll be even more careful with your deliberations today than you were yesterday. You'll have to move quickly in social matters, however. A gettogether could lead to romance, but if you don't act quickly, you'll get left behind.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Today is a 5.
Don't get to worrying today. Instead, figure out how you're going to solve the problem you're facing.
What you thought you could do isn't going to be as easy as you'd hoped, so you'll have to come up with another plan.

missing three games with a right eye contusion, McGriff has been 17-for-38 (.447) with seven homers, 13 RBI and has scored 1.3 runs in 10 games.
Tampa Bay benefited from a two-out throwing error by third baseman Joe Randa in the fifth inning that allowed two runs to score and broke a 2-2 tie.
Scott Aldred (2-0) retired one batter in the eighth inning. Roberto Hernandez pitched a perfect ninth for his Albest 11th save in 12 opportunities.
Royals starter Jim Pittsley walked McGriff, loading the bases with two outs. Perry then hit a ground ball down the line that Randa backhanded, but the throw hit Perry near first base.

Williams sisters advance to Open quarterfinals
ROME — The Williams sisters breezed into the Italian Open quarterfinals with impressive victories yesterday.
Venus Williams, the third seed, needed just 57 minutes to eliminate Anna Kournikova 6-2, 6-2, while No. 6 Serena Williams breezed by No. 13 Irina Spina of Romania 6-2, 6-3.

Serena's victory set up a clash with No. 1 Martina Hingis. The defending champion advanced by routing unseeded American Corina Morariu 6-1, 6-4 at night.
Both Williams siblings base their success on overpowering their foes with fierce strokes from both sides.
But they showed variety on the Foro Italico's red clay yesterday, disguising an occasional drop shot from the baseline or picking just the right moment for a slick volley.
"I think I have a better thought process as a player," Venus Williams said. "Last year, I was just developing and hitting hard. Today, I'm able to think well no matter who I am playing."
"I would love to have a different game years from now," said Venus, at 18 a year older than Serena. "People get better, so if you don't improve your game, you get left behind. You just have to keep learning the game more."
Serena Williams has reached the final at each of the last three tournaments she's played, winning two, while her sister and Hingis each have won three titles.

Tutors help boost athletes' marks
Assistance enables student athletes to adjust to college
Out of all the things Sarah Workman has learned at the University of Kansas, she might get the best marks on the art of making a comeback.
By Matt Gardner sports@kansan.com Special to the Kanson
The redshirt junior on the Kansas softball team returned to action this season after sitting out the 1998 season with a torn bicep muscle in her pitching arm.
But an even bigger comeback for Workman might have been adjusting to life in the classroom.
Workman, like many student athletes at Kansas, turned to Athletics Department tutors her freshman year to help her to balance her schedule between academics and athletics.
Workman, who graduated from University High School in Orlando, Fla., with a grade point average of 3.8 and who was a member of the ESPN Scholastic All-America team, didn't adjust to the rigor of college academics right away.
A member of her high school's National Honor Society. Workman had to settle for a 2.5 GPA her first semester at Kansas and wasn't satisfied.
Workman turned to Kansas' Student Support Services for help. Support Services offered tutoring to student athletes in need of help on any particular subject.
In the wake of a tutoring scandal at the University of Minnesota, many universities are examining the way tutoring is done at their schools, and they say that they are making sure guidelines are followed.
In March, one day before the University of Minnesota's basketball team was set to play in the opening round of the NCAA tournament against Gonzaga, the Pioneer Press reported that four former players told them that classwork was prepared for them in possible violation of NCAA regulations.
Soon afterwards, Jan Gangelhoff,
a former student tutor at Minneapolis told the Pioneer Press that she had done more than 400 pieces of work for student athletes from 1993-98.
Workman said that most athletes
want to succeed at academics, but there always have to be a few who wouldn't mind seeing the rules bent.
Mike Hock, director of Student Support Services, said it's not uncommon to have many athletes in the same shoes as Workman or needing additional help in their first semester at Kansas.
"When student-athletes come in for help, we just to treat them with dignity and respect," Hock said. "Right away, we want them to come to the University and know they can be successful. It's not uncommon for anyone to have high grades in high school and kind of struggle the first semester or two."
"When I needed help with a certain subject, it was great to have someone there to help me. I think a lot of students really use tutoring to help make being a student athlete easier."
Workman, who majored in chemistry her freshman year before switching to Health Education, used the tutoring services her first year to gain ground in algebra, English and biology.
I am a volunteer at the local library.
"I didn't access tutoring like some of the other athletes here do, but I think for me it was more just learning on my own what I needed to do to get better," she said.
Sarah Workman, junior on the softball team
"Some athletes come in once a week while for others it may be
While Workman needed only a little help from tutoring to guide her GPA to a 3.2.. Hock said some athletes relied on tutoring more.
to next year's packet of tutoring information is the Saint Paul Pioneer Press expose of Minnesota's tutoring program.
With the shadow of cheating falling at other universities across the nation, Hock said all of the University's tutors were continuously informed about what was and what wasn't proper for a tutor to do for a student-athlete.
might be added
"We try to challenge the students to work as much as they can but are always there for assistance when they need us."
"We go over our tutoring policies each year and continuously throughout the semester." Hock said. "We meet with our tutors on a weekly basis to discuss things, and we do occasionally get a question about how much is too much
Student Support Services provides tutors with a packet of materials that include guidelines on academic conduct. Also included are copies of stories on academic misconduct at the University of Nevada-Las Vegas and the University of Arkansas.
two or three times," Hock said. "We try to challenge the students to work as much as they can but are always there for assistance when they need us."
The University employed 52 tutors this semester. Approximately half those 52 tutors are enrolled at Kansas, and combined they tutor between 125 to 165 athletes each week.
Mike Hock
director of Student Support Services
Becoming a tutor for student athletes isn't easy. The qualifications for student-athlete tutors include solid-background knowledge in all the course work they will be tutoring, as well as a GPA in tutored subjects of at least 3.2.
One set of articles that Hock said
Melody Granzow, assistant director of Student Support Services and tutor at Kansas since 1994, says that events such as what allegedly happened at Minnesota help edu
cate the tutors on what should be done while tutoring.
"We use the information as a forum to reiterate all of the NCAA rules as well as our own academic honesty policy and code of ethical conduct," Granzow said. "The bottom line is that tutors can provide assistance in understanding material, ideas and concepts, but the student-athletes must take the responsibility for doing their own classwork."
Granzow said it was important to stress that although there was the occasional athlete looking to take short cuts on the academic side, most student athletes show pride in doing their own work.
"There are always going to be exceptions to the rule, but for the most part the student athletes that are involved in our tutoring program put forth a great deal of effort." Granzow said. "They have bought into our program and are happy to have the additional assistance as well as the structure and mentoring."
Kansas softball coach Tracy Bunge said she felt it was important for freshmen to come to Kansas and establish themselves with the tutoring program to see what they are capable of.
"The first thing we do to our freshmen is to make sure to tell them that this isn't high school," Bunge said. "A lot of them don't realize the work load difference and the way a student athlete has to manage time."
Granzow said many freshmen entering the University were willing to try to use a tutor while getting used to class, workout and practice schedules.
"We encourage freshmen to come in and use our services, and most of our student-athletes appreciate the assistance they receive and use it to their advantage." Granzow said. "By the time many of them are juniors or seniors, they no longer require our services."
While Workman only used tutoring her freshman year, she said she benefited from her time with tutors.
"When I needed help with a certain subject, it was great to have someone there to help me," Workman said. "I think a lot of students really use tutoring to help make being a student athlete easier."
Student athletes at Kansas combined for a 3.0 GPA in Fall 1998, and 34 athletes produced a 4.0. But the number of athletes who were on academic probation in Fall 1998 would not be disclosed by Kansas. The NCAA doesn't require universities to turn in those numbers.
Workman continues to help rebuild her GPA and her pitching game. She has maintained a 3.5 GPA since her freshman year, including one semester with a 3.98.
"It was nice to get my schedule organized and start to get my grades up." Workman said. "Now my goal is to get a 4.0 at least one semester before I graduate."

Kan., senior.
WATERSPORTS
Five men and five women compete in slalom, trick skiing and distance jumping.
Slalom participants ski around buoys and try to get the fastest time with the fewest buoys hit. Trick skipping is scored by certified judges who award points individually. Jumping is judged by distance.
In trick skiing, a skier will hold onto a short rope, typically 15 to 20 feet behind the boat, where he or she will perform jumps, spins, flips, ski backwards and anything else to impress the judges.
"It's hard, they have to plan out their trick run, but it's tough to pull off," Brulez said.
Brulez competes in all three events, mostly because she wants to, but also because she is one of the better skiers, which are hard to find in Kansas.
"All the serious skiers move to Florida where there's awesome lakes. I grew up water skiing, so I guess I'm different that way," she said.
Some members, such as Jorgenson, never water skied before they became a part of the club.
"I think some people think they have to know a lot about water skiing, but they really don't. I'm an example of that," she said.
led to injuries, but nothing more than a few cuts and scrapes.
Some skiers' inexperience has
The team competes in seven tournaments during the fall and two or three during the spring, depending on the weather. It holds one tournament during the spring, one during the fall and Kansas State also
will hold two or three during the year. That leaves a lot of traveling to compete in other tournaments.
Last fall, the team rented two vans and spent three days in Camelot Lakes, Ind., at the Midwest Regional competition, finishing fourth out of 22 teams.
They rent a boat, spend close to $3,000 on new trick, jump and slalom skis throughout the year and have to pay for wet-suits, life-vests, gas for the boat and other miscellaneous items.
They spent $2,000 on two rental vans for the trip to regionals last year, just a portion of their expenses.
"We receive some money from the club budget, but we have to do fund raisers too." Brulez said.
They sell T-shirts, and each member pays $150 in dues including $50 to cover insurance.
But the skiing itself makes everything worthwhile.
"Skiing in general is a rush," Brulez said. "You get up behind the boat and just glide. The toughest thing is just getting your body to do what your mind wants you to."

Iverson wins scoring title
The Associated Press
PHILADELPHIA — Allen Iverson's friends had to drag him to a local nightspot to see if Shaquille O'Neal would catch him. If it had been a pickup game against Shaq, or anyone else, Iverson wouldn't have hesitated.
"Everybody stay humble," Iverson told his friend, Que Gaskins, as they settled in at a restaurant just outside the city to watch Iverson's dream of an NBA scoring title become reality.
When Shaq fell short, there were cheers, champagne and even a few tears from Iverson, who became the 76ers' first scoring champion since Wilt Chamberlain in 1965-66.
"I've worked so hard," said Iverson, embracing his friends and family Wednesday night when O'Neal fell far short of the 40 points he needed to pass Iverson for the scoring lead. "All my dreams are coming true."
After scoring 33 points in the Sixers' 105-100 overtime victory over the Detroit Pistons Wednesday night, Iverson left the arena not knowing whether it was enough to capture his first scoring title.
O'Neal, playing against Portland on the West Coast, scored 18 points and lost the scoring race 26.75 to 26.31 in one of the battles in NBA history. O'Neal,
who led the league in scoring in 1994-95,
also lost by.42
points to David Robinson in 1993-94.
"It would have been very selfish for me to try and get 40 tonight," O'Neal said.
The first scoring title of the post-Michael
Iverson: Defeated Shaquille O'Neal for the NBA title.
Jordan era went to Iverson, a 6-foot speed demon who has been criticized for everything from his criminal record and fashion statements to his brief history of selfishness and perceived arrogance on the court.
Just as he does when he drives fearlessly to the basket, Iverson stood up to all the giants who have led the NBA
in scoring — names like Chamberlain, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Jerry West and Elvin Hayes. He is the shortest scoring champion in NBA history, eclipsing the 6-foot-1 Nate "Tiny" Archibald, who did it in 1972-73.
"I think it would be a great for the league, a little kid winning the scoring championship," said Sixers coach Larry Brown, who had a one-on-one meeting with Iverson before the game.
Brown wanted to prep Iverson for the night ahead because he'd been through this before. Brown was the Denver coach when David Thompson went into the last game of the season in a tight scoring battle with San Antonio's George Gervin.
Thompson scored 73 points for the Nuggets, only to watch Gervin go out later and pour in 63 to win the title by 07 points.
"David and I talked before the game, and we all wanted David to win the scoring title," Brown said. "And he didn't want anybody to help him."
"I was just hoping that Allen would get the scoring title without us doing anything silly."
Michigan State guard to stay in school
The Associated Press
EAST LANSING, Mich. — Michigan State point guard Mateen Cleaves will stay in school next season and not declare himself eligible for the NBA draft as an underclassman.
The 6-foot-2, 190-pound All-American made his announcement yesterday at a news conference in East Lansing.
edly that she would like her son to finish work on his degree in family community services.
Cleaves had said after Michigan State's loss to Duke in national semifinals of the NCAA tournament that he would stay in school. Cleaves follows the plan endorsed by Spartans coach Tom Izzo and by his mother, Fran Clemens, who had said repeat
"That last game left any empty feeling in my stomach." Cleavens said yesterday. "This year, I want to bring it home."
Two of his peers — Duke's Elton Brand and Connecticut's Richard Hamilton — already decided to leave school early. But some NBA scouts believed Cleaves would be better off staying at Michigan State and working on his shot.
"It wasn't a tough decision to tell you the truth. My family and coaches just thought I ought to check everything out." Cleavay said. "The education is very important to me. I want my degree. I don't want to be known as just a jock."
Despite the fact that he was the Big Ten player of the year for the second straight season, Cleaves saw his scoring average dip from 16.1 points per game in 1998 to 11.7 last season.
Still, there are few who can match Cleaves in clutch situations.
He scored the winning basket with 3.7 seconds remaining against Northwestern in the Big Ten tournament. Cleaves also hit the winning shot with 1.2 seconds left in a late-season game against Minnesota, and with four-tenths of a second remaining against Penn State.

Regents concerned about bill Undete
(USPS.650-640)
By Kristi Reimer
kreimer@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Even as Gov. Bill Graves is preparing to sign into law a bill that will change dramatically the way college education in Kansas is governed, Board of Regents and University of Kansas officials have some concerns.
Graves will sign Senate Bill 345 at 1 p.m. Wednesday in a public ceremony at the Kansas Statehouse, said Mike Matson, his press secretary. The bill will take effect July 1.
"'The governor is pleased that after 25 years we have reached what can only be called a historic agreement on higher-education governance." Matson said.
But Tom Bryant, interim executive director of the Board of Regents, said staff and board members were somewhat apprehensive about the bill's implementation.
"Any time there's change, people are nervous." Bryant said.
He said a primary concern was that the bill contained only $20,000 to put the changes into effect.
"I'm really concerned about the additional resources needed to accommodate the coordination piece, which has to do with the tracking of students," Bryant said. "That's new ground."
The bill makes the new board, which will be divided into three commissions, responsible for overseeing community colleges, vocational and technical schools and Washburn University in addition to governing four-year universities, which it has always done. It also calls for coordinating all aspects of higher education.
A transition team led by Regents Chairman William Docking has begun meeting to help smooth the changeover, but Bryant said many decisions could not be made until the new board was in place.
"We don't want to make some decisions that would be abolished come the end of June," he said.
In the meantime, he said, the current board and staff were trying to keep focused on their responsibilities.
"We have board meetings in May and June," Bryant said. "We have certain things we have to get done, and everyone's trying to stay on task."
At the May meeting, Regents will vote on whether to approve a calendar that establishes a fall break at the University and a Regents-wide tuition increase.
Regines What Chancellor Robert Hemenway said an amendment to the bill that limits the number of members with undergraduate degrees from any particular university, introduced by Wichita legislators to correct what they saw as disproportionate KU influence on the board, could be a detriment.
"It introduces the representational notion to the appointment process and says something other than merit will be considered," he said. "It substitutes geography for merit."
He said the new board would be successful in direct proportion to the assumptions of the new members.
"If they look upon themselves as the representatives of particular sectors of higher, or as representatives of particular schools, the board will be unsuccessful." Hemenway said. "If they think of themselves nine members committed to quality, high-access and low-cost post-secondary education, then it will be successful."
The bill also contains a funding component that increases state funding to the six Regents institutions, 19 community col-

Weekend's music brings 'peace,' 'love'

Popper shows off a can of Coors Light that he has just carved up to be used for cigarette disposal. He wipes off the long kitchen knife and begins to prepare cheese sandwiches on a three-burner Coleman stove.
I'll never let you down.
He constructs his sandwich with care, his only tools white bread, a bottle of squeezable butter, processed cheese and the knife. Brandon "Popper" Cale has been affectionately dubbed "The Cheese Sandwich King" by his friends.
"Two slices of cheese," he says, beckoning toward the sandwiches he just laid on the griddle.
Cale was one of the few hundred happy campers this weekend at the 1999 Omega Festival at Clinton State Park. Seventeen local bands and national act, Ominous Seapods, performed, providing a healthy dose of music that seemed to draw more and more campers to the stage as the day progressed.
Back at Cale's campsite the beat went on.
In the picture-perfect weather of Saturday afternoon, campers emerged from the tent labyrinth, bringing their drums while Cale prepared the sandwiches.

Undetected error led to embassy bombing
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — A CIA error that was based on faulty information and then went undetected in subsequent checks led to the mistaken NATO targeting and bombing of the Chinese Embassy in Belgrade, a U.S. official said yesterday
The official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said the intended target, the Yugoslav Federal Directorate of Supply and Procurement, was chosen by the CIA. Other organizations, including NATO, the U.S. European Command and the Pentagon's Joint Staff, reviewed and approved it.
The Chinese Embassy is several hundred yards away from the Yugoslav government supply office.
Most of the target planning in the allied air campaign is done by NATO, the U.S. European Command and the Pentagon, with the CIA playing a smaller role, the official said. CIA officials still are reviewing their own published and clandestine sources to determine how they misidentified the embassy.
Rep. Porter Goss, R-Fla., chairman of the House intelligence committee, said the bombing showed that America's intelligence capabilities were stretched too thin and that such mistakes happened as a result.
The administration is seeking about $29 billion for intelligence programs in the 2000 budget, an increase of about 9 percent. But critics say the proposed increase comes after years in which intelligence spending has effectively declined. Only a small portion of that budget goes to the CIA; much is for sory satellites and military intelligence.
President Clinton apologized Saturday to the Chinese, and Defense Secretary William Cohen and CIA Director George Tenet issued a joint statement acknowledging that faulty information was behind the error. They said that a review of procedures convinced them such a mistake was unlikely to recover.
NATO Supreme Allied Commander Gen. Wesley Clark, said on ABC's This Week that there had been 18,000 bombing runs in the seven-week campaign but fewer than a dozen instances of hitting civilians or weapons going astray.
The embassy bombing has further strained already tense relations between the United States and China.
secretary of State Madeleine Albright met Saturday night with Li Zhaoxing, the Chinese Ambassador to the United States, to express regrets and seek assurances that U.S. embassy staff in Beijing, which has been under siege from thousands of Chinese demonstrators protesting the bombing, be protected. The State Department has issued an advisory cautioning Americans against travel in China.

Road, stadium construction could cause some problems

More than 4,000 graduates and 30,000 attendees are expected to be present at 2:30 p.m. May 23 in Memorial Stadium for the ceremony. Weinberg said stadium construction was not expected to affect that day's event.
"It was requirement during the stadium renovation planning
that it still be possible to hold Commencement there," Weinberg said.
He said concession stands would be open and restroom facilities would be available.
However road construction in Lawrence could slow incoming and outgoing graduation traffic.
The Massachusetts Street bridge over the Kansas River is reduced to one lane of traffic in each direction for street repairs. The project is expected to take 16 weeks to complete.

Gas pipe breaks, causes evacuation of fraternity
Students had to evacuate Delta Chi fraternity, 1245 West Campus Rd. early yesterday morning when a gas pipe broke. The Lawrence Fire Department received a call from the fraternity at 12:28 a.m.
Jerry Karr, Lawrence Fire Department Battalion Chief, said firefighters on the scene evacuated the house, turned off the gas meter and called Kansas Public Service. Firefighters then used instruments to monitor gas levels in the house.
"We have to monitor to make sure a house is within flammable limits," Karr said. "Once it comes down to neutral limits, people are allowed back into the house."

Technology will improve in new education building
Renovations on Joseph R. Pearson Hall have left the building an empty hulk, so much so that from West Campus Road, one can look straight through the building to see more renovations, those taking place on the west side of Memorial Stadium.
The school presented the floorplans in a Budgie Hall ceremony Saturday.
By Spring 2000, however, the building will be the state-of-the-art home of the School of Education.
"It will move up in the rankings as a School of Education and become something the University of Kansas can be even prouder of," he said.
Provost David Shulenburger said the technological advantages of the new Joseph R. Pearson Hall will help the school become even better than it already is.
The school was one of the top 25 in the nation, according to U.S. News and World Report, and it has the best special education program in the nation, according to the same article.
Some of the technology in the new home of the school will be in the Gale Sayers Microcomputer Lab, named after the former Kansas football great, and the Oscar Haugh Telecommunications Center. Haugh is a professor emeritus of teaching and leadership.
Socratic tour to shed light on the campus
After students get their walking papers from regular classes today, they can take a walking tour of campus tomorrow and philosophize about the Socratic values of the University of Kansas.
Ted Johnson, professor of French has led the tour since 1993.
"The concept is to look at the Uni
viversity of Kansas as the University of Athens, 2000 years ago," he said.
The tour is mostly an iconography — a description or study of portralure or representation — of the KU campus.
"What sort of ideas are quickened by these structures?" Johnson asked.
He said he learned something new each year on the tour. Most recently, Tony Corbiell, associate professor of classics, noticed something Johnson had not seen.
"There was an inscription on the Campanile in Latin, and he recognized it as an unfinished poem of Cicero." Johnson said.
David Cateforis, associate professor of art history, said he had taken the tour two years ago and thought it was interesting and worthwhile.
"It helped me to see the campus in a way I hadn't seen it before, notice things I hadn't noticed before," he said.
The tour starts at 9 a.m. at 14th Street and Jayhawk Boulevard and ends at 6 p.m. on the east end of campus, although Johnson said people could join or leave the group at any point along the way.
Johnson said that because of the weather, participants should bring umbrellas. If the weather is particularly inclement, the tour will start at 9 a.m. at the portico of Lippincott Hall and will remain indoors until the weather clears.

Mizzou fraternity fire claims Kansas man's life
COLUMBIA, Mo. — The construction of a bunk bed may have made escape difficult for a man killed when a burning candle ignited the bedding as he slept in a University of Missouri-Columbia fraternity house, fire officials said.
Dominic Passantino, a freshman from Leawood, was asleep in the top bunk when the fire started early Saturday. The bunk was built as a loft enclosed by walls with a door opening to the upper and lower bunks, fire investigator Andy Anderson said.
A fire official said the enclosure may have hampered the victim's exit.
Passantino's roommate and a visitor who was sleeping on a couch were able to escape along with about 40 other people in the Sigma Chi house.
Survivors told investigators that the candle was on a shoebox lid near the opening to Passantino's bunk, Anderson said.
Passantino died of smoke inhalation according to Boone County medical examiner Jay Dix.
The house had recently undergone $750 in renovations to reach all city fire codes, Sapp said, although he said it did not have sprinkler system.
Counter-culture teens affected by Littleton
CLEVELAND — Eleven students are suspended for putting a satirical essay on their personal Web site. A teen-ager is sent to the police station for wearing black clothing. A student is interrogated about the chemistry book he's carrying.
Across the nation, American Civil Liberties Union offices say they're being swamped by complaints that nervous school officials are trampling students' constitutional rights since the April 20 shootings in Littleton, Colo.
Greg Daniels of the ACLI in Ohio said the most serious of more than two dozen complaints to his office involved 11 students from Brimfield, a small town about 30 miles southeast of Cleveland. The students had a Web site for the Gothic subculture of youths who wear black, listen to rocker Marilyn Manson and think about death.
The Web site had been created months before the Littleton shootings but was updated with comment on the massacre.
One statement read: "I wonder how long it'll be before we're allowed to wear our trench coats anymore. You know those screwed up kids in Colorado were wearing them, so that means I will also kill someone, and so will all my friends."
The ACLU successfully fought their exulsion.
Chinese demonstrate against NATO bombing
BEIJING — Chinese demonstrators called American fascists and imperialists and pitched rocks through windows of three embassies Sunday to condemn NATO's accidental bombing of China's Embassy in Yugoslavia.
Demonstrators by the thousands flowed past the main U.S. Embassy buildings in Beijing. Many carried signs in Chinese reading "a debt of blood must be repaid in blood."
It was the biggest public protest since the Tiananmen Square pro-democracy demonstrations 10 years ago. Thousands of police kept watch Sunday, the second day of the government-sanctioned protest, but did not try to stop the rock-throwing.
The Chinese government put the number of demonstrators at 20,000, but the constant stream made it difficult to count. After dark, fewer people were being directed by police along a route snaking through the embassy district.
"We are essentially hostages of the embassy at the present time now. We've been here 48 hours without being able to leave," U.S. Ambassador James Sasser told AP Radio by telephone.
He said the government had encouraged the protests.

Locals enjoy local bands atmosphere at festival
Continued from page 1A
But Cale's perceptions are no longer muddy.
Dave Gnojek, Lawrence freshman, was not only there to enjoy the music but also to play it. Gnojek sat on a blanket with some friends after his band. The Secondhands, performed Saturday afternoon.
Gnojek continually drenched himself with sunscreen and carried his saxophone around throughout day.
"The vibes have been so good today," he said as a beautiful girl in a flowered dress sat down at the circle and slid on a pair of finger cymbals. "It's such a good way to get everyone in Lawrence here to enjoy the music."
Playing the festival was good fun, good exposure and good eatin', Gnojek said.
"It's like my child," he said, patting the sax case.
"They took great care of us," he said, describing the meal of chicken and potatoes the bands received backstage. "Everyone gets along back there."
But friendliness wasn't limited to backstage relations.
"There are not cliques here that you usually find at outdoor music festivals," Gnojek said, surveying the campground at dusk. "There's not a bunch of separate groups, just one big family."
After the sun had set, whoops and hollers shot through the air as campers awaited The Band that Saved the World to take the stage Saturday night. At one point, a community roar filled the air.
The Jesse Jackson 5 capped off the night with a heavy groove and the people went back to their campsites to celebrate
Yesterday morning at Cale's campsite, two drummers gathered once again, this time playing a slower, less furious beat. Ashes from last night's campfire flew through the air.
A drummer with long dreadlocks and veins bulging on his red face shouted out, "Freedom!"
His partner, shirtless and snoeless,
echoed,"Freedom!"
"Peace!"
"Peace!"
"Love!"
"Love..."

Haskell honors May graduates
Pow-Wow celebration brings 2,000 people
By Dan Curry
dcurry@kansan.org
Kansas staff writer
Eight men sit in lawn chairs around a rwhide drum. In the late day sun, they each take long drinks from a milk jug full of water. Slender drum sticks tipped with cotton lean against the taut drum head.
They are the members of Thunder Shield, the host drum at the Haskell Indian Nations University Commencement Pow-Wow. The host drum has paused. The other five drums put down their sticks.
So the dancing stops.
The emcee turns the microphone down, leans back and begins to gnaw on roasted corn. People in the crowd turn their attention away from the arena and begin to meander along the booths where vendors hawk Big Indian Burgers, funnel cakes and t-shirts with wolves on their fronts.
It is a rare moment at Haskell's Commencement Pow-Wow, a quiet moment, when the host drum takes a rest. The drum lies at the heart of the Pow-Wow, providing the rhythm for song, dance and ceremony.
The men play these drums to keep traditions alive, to pass on songs that have been passed on for generations.
Other reasons are simpler.
"The guys just wanted to sing, so we got a hold of a drum," said Thunder Shield leader Jeremy Shield. A Haskell alumnus.
On the drum head, Shield meticulously cuts eight piles of cash for each of the drummers present. The money has come from a dance devoted to Thunder Shield, where dancers collect money from the audience on behalf of the group.
Thunder Shield was the host drum for the Pow-Wow Friday and Saturday in the fields south of the Haskell campus. More than 2,000 people attended the two-day event.
Thunder Shield members say host drum is an honored position that the group is sometimes called upon to fill.
"We did it because (the event organizers) asked us to," Shield said. "I was taught never to refuse."
The group plays different songs for different dances, and their repertoire is extensive, Shield said. They sing the songs in a Northern style, which is at a higher pitch than Southern style.
Their style is also traditional, where no words are used, Shield said. While words can be found in contemporary Native American music, Thunder Shield uses only harmony.
"We practice once a week to keep our voices in tune," he said. "We all just come together and make one voice."
Songs frequently have three parts; a lead, a second and a tail.
Haskell Indian Nations University
The lead part will be a solo that sets up a particular melody, which the other parts will answer in chorus.
Ron Brave, a Thunder Shield Member; said the song and drum had always been part of his life.
The group practices singing and drumming each Tuesday, providing music for the New Dawn Native Dancers, a local Native American children's troupe.
"Our relatives were in the business." Brave said.
He learned to sing and drum by being close to the tradition. As a child, when a singer was missing, he would be called upon to fill the gap.
Shield said he originally learned to play the drum from his family.
"You sit in someone's chair," Brave said. "One day you're going to step up."
Shield's clan uncle would tell him to listen to the morning birds to hear a better lesson in music.
The Pow-Wow was in celebration of Haskell's graduates.
Haskell President Bob Martin said it was one of the best ceremonies he'd seen during his tenure.
Haskell graduated 122 people this year, Martin said.

Phelps piece borders on sensationalism
We are very disturbed about the front page story April 30 about Fred Phelps. The story was well-written, but it was a disturbing portrayal of a man with a hateful agenda. But, six photographs: When was the last time the Kansan published six photos with one story? The article provided good information. It did not need this excessive shock treatment; pure sensationalism. Where is your integrity?
This sort of coverage gives this promoter of hate exactly what he wants: free publicity. It may draw readers to the story, but it is very offensive and unnecessary. It is damaging to the human soul to see those images. And where is your compassion for KU's gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgendered readers? It is painful to see his hateful messages. You discussed the content of his picket signs in your article, and that should be enough. Phelps relies on journalists to give him exposure he could not otherwise obtain no matter how disparagingly a portrayal. I urge you to resist the temptation to help him spread his hatred. Publishing these photos is like doing his protesting for him. Ignore him and respect your readers.

Tutu lecture attracts undue criticism
I attended the Desmond Tutt lecture on April 18, presented at Allen Fieldhouse by SUA. Looking back, the lecture was not only inspirational but eerily timely in light of the events that occurred recently at Columbine High in Littleton, Colo.
The words of Archbishop Tutu pleaded with all individuals to set aside our prejudices and differences because understanding and acceptance of our diversity are key to world peace — what a priceless message he conveyed to all who had the pleasure of attending his historical event at the University.
But according to an April 20 article in the Lawrence Journal World, we should be more concerned with the fact that the cost of bringing this winner of the Nobel Peace Prize "outpaced revenues." What a petty issue to be explored after such and impressive and successful lecture
An important fact that the article failed to mention was that hundreds of KU students received their tickets free of charge. Instructors who deemed it educational and pertinent to their class submitted this information to SUA, who then provided complimentary student passes for this event.
— one which is certainly a milestone for our University lecture series.
Had these students been charged, maybe revenues would not have been in the red as reported, but then how many of these students could not have afforded to attend — thus limiting the scope and range of Tutu's important message. Was money really limiting the scope and range of Tutu's important message? Was money really the key issue in this case, or was it the impact the speaker had on our campus and in our community? We feel it definitely is the latter.
Realistically, this was a small price to pay for the message he provided and the great publicity the University received. per TV and newspaper, across the state. It's a shame that such an article had to sour such a momentous, student-organized event. We commend the students and advisors of SUA whose efforts brought our community this priceless event.

In regards to the Gas Out editorial, the board failed to see the larger issue. Challenge the political and economic power of the oil companies. Oil is a limited resource, and yes, the mass consumption of oil in the industrialized world produces major environmental damage. Yet, federal and local transportation policy continues to promote the automobile (and air travel), which means that money goes to build more highways and
Gas Out initiative missed by editorial
more airports, at the expense of more environmentally friendly transportation like electric rail. It allows industry to move wherever they want, which forces people to follow. With the work force dispersed, it requires that people drive cars to get to work.
In the 1920s, American cities had excellent public transportation systems. There was once a streetcar system in Lawrence and an electric rail line that connected Lawrence with Kansas City. And there really was a streetcar named "Desire" in New Orleans until GM shut it down.
Today, people depend on gas to get to work. It's nice to dream about a world where everyone walks to work, rides a bike, or rides clean and quiet electric rail, but none of this will happen until we break oil-in industry control of governmental transportation policy. Oil companies own more patents for alternative energy than any other industry. They buy the rights to alternative technology and bury it so it will never be developed.
If gas prices are high, it does not reduce consumption unless prices are so high that people simply cannot afford it. Higher prices mean that people must devote more income to gas. If prices are low, people do not use significantly more gas; they spend less of their income to buy gas. So long as people must drive to work, they must buy gas. It is not realistic or possible for millions of people to walk or ride a bike to and from work, or ride nonexistent public transportation. As long as the public acquires the, oil companies will be free to set prices high in order to maximize profit.
Advocating that people simply make a personal choice to use less gasoline guarantees that nothing will change. It guarantees that the government will continue to use whatever means necessary to maintain our reliance on oil, even using the military to enforce our claims on oil in the middle east. Saving the environment requires policy change, which will not happen until we collectively challenge the political and economic power of the oil companies. The Gas Out was intended as a step in that direction.

Graduation incomplete without backyard ritual
Perspective
I am a teacher.
Stepping out of the sliding-glass door of my childhood home always had been like stepping out into heaven for me. Our backyard patio was not large, nor was it covered by a suburban rain-sealed, wooden deck.
Ryan Koerner
joining ksansam.com
The simple 12 by-15 foot slab of concrete was shaded on the right side by a large oak tree, with a trunk that branched into two just above the ground, making it perfect for climbing. The grill where my dad cooked Saturday-night steaks is at the front, left-hand corner. All of the furniture is wrought iron.
There is a dining table and four chairs that were a wedding gift and three chairs on the other side that fashioned a part of sitting room. The not

tern of the removable umbrella over the table and the fabric for the cushions changes every few years.
Usually, they were looking for my mom.
There was a standing rule in my house. No calling before noon. That meant the doorbell shouldn't ring, the phone shouldn't ring, and, unless you were very quiet, don't knock on the patio door. My mom, who became a stay-at-home mom shortly after she and my dad married in 1973, was not a morning person.
In fact, when complications from her lung cancer finally caused her breathing to stop early one January morning in 1998 and my sister and I were fretting about when to call our extended family, we simply implored Mary Jo's rule: Nothing Before Noon.
Until the doctor diagnosed her cancer, my mom was as much a fixture on our backyard patio as the Jayhawk stepping stone that was the bridge between the concrete and the grass yard beyond. After that, she said being on the patio made her want to smoke. And, when I thought about it, that's what she did on the patio, but it wasn't what she did best.
My mom had a gift for gab. Her talent went beyond extending cocktail-party chit chat more than the obligatory 10 minutes. She had a way of drawing people out, making them feel comfortable enough to share tricks of their trade or just simple secrets.
During high school, our patio hit its heyday. Few of Central High's sporting events and social gatherings ended before lounging on the Koerners' patio.
Mom would sit on the wrought iron lovesat — by then the cushion was hunter green-and-white striped — sipping white zinfandel from a plastic glass wine and smoking Eve Lights, something only she could get away with. When I pulled in the driveway, she would flip on the light, a great 5-foot outdoor lamp with an all weather light bulb. By the time I had my sweats on, my mom was getting the evening's gossip from my friends. Most of them still referred to my mom as Mama Jo — a name she devised when her first grandchild was born. Grandma just wasn't her style, she'd tell you.
My last conversation with my mom on the patio was two weeks before I came back to school my junior year. Her wig had just come in at the beauty shop and had been hand-delivered that day. I can't remember whether she was on a chemo or radiation rotation, but she had given up her wine for chocolate shakes. She sat sipping one when I finally mustered the courage to ask.
A lot of what was said those evenings I never heard. There were things my friends told my mom that they never told me. Sometimes, I just went to bed before my mom closed shop. She never left the natio until the last kid's curfew had passed.
"If you want me to stay, I can. School will always be there. The Kansan can get by without me, and everyone will understand if I can't be there for the first part of rush. Do you want me to stay home this semester? Do you want me to stay just a few more weeks?"
Her response I never will forget. It was something I used to defend myself several times when I rfiends told me I would regret spending those three months 80 miles away.
"No, Ryan, don't you do that," she said. "We have to get you through college. That's what matters to me now — getting you to graduation."
All that is left for most of my colleagues are the final staff meeting at the Kansan, a few finals and a short trip down Campanile hill.
I have one more commitment, though. It involves sweeping the patio, buying a bottle of wine and digging a faded green-and-white cushion out of the garage.

Drive demands dialogue
I know. I made the trip Saturday to see some close friends finally pick up their diplomas from the University of Missouri.
It's a dull, lonely drive round trip from here to Columbia, Mo.
I borrowed my mother's car — four cylinders get a lot better gas mileage than eight—and hit I-70.
MARCIO PORTEGRAZ
There were about 800,000 police officers handing out tickets between Kansas City and Columbia. The car's oil light started coming on, making me wonder whether I would be stuck at MU for the weekend. The tape player ate my Midnight Oil tape.

It's not that long of a trip, I suppose. About five hours, both ways.
opinion@kansan.com
Why? I suppose because I was seeing the results of 17 — or more — years of education. From kindergarten to cap and gown, these people were finishing up a process that had consumed most of their lives.
But it gave me a lot of time to be alone with my thoughts, especially after Blue Sky Mining became a magnetic snack for the Mazda's tape deck.
I was thinking about the graduation that I had just witnessed. It was for the school of engineering, and at the end, they had a slide show, set to music, of the seniors' year.
So this led my thoughts to consider what I was getting out of my 17 years.
My thoughts and I had some interesting conversations, especially on the way home.
I knew exactly one of those people, and I still got a little misty-eyed.
It's about learning.
But it seems largely about money
That's not what education is about, is it?
A bill about higher education in Kansas is lying somewhere on Gov. Bill Graves' desk, waiting to be signed. Depending on whom you ask, it could be a great thing, or it could impale the University squarely on the short end of the reform stick.
And, being a philosophy major, I posed the next logical question to myself. What have I learned?
I guess I've learned not to splice sentences with a comma, it's bad. I've learned to avoid bad grammar, which is because of a poor command of the English language. I've learned that black type on a blue background is hard to read. I've learned that you sometimes can get blood from a turnip, especially if the turnip is a reporter.
I've learned that defending a coherent theory of justifying punishment is harder than it looks. I've learned that symbolic logic is a lot closer to math than I'm really comfortable with. I've learned that egoism really disguises me as a moral theory.
But really, learning is more than that.
Being in school for 17 years has taught me how to treat people. It is taught me how to handle myself in sticky situations. It's taught me how to be who I am.
It's edified me.
Doyle is a Kansas City, Mo., senior in journalism and philosophy and is a Kansan managing editor.
But if I remember to check the oil and watch out for police, I think everything will be OK.
That's the conversation that I had with myself. I finally made it back to Lawrence. In two weeks, it will be my turn to walk down the Hill and begin the first days of the rest of my life.
It's kind of scary.
NRA convention disrespectful
The National Rifle Association defied the wishes of city officials and cast aside respect for the dead and grieving when it held its annual meeting in Denver, less than two weeks after the Columbine High School shootings in nearby Littleton, Colo.
Editorial
Though the NRA shortened its annual convention on May 1 from two days to one and canceled all nonessential business, this was not enough. It refused to call off the event or move it to a neutral location.
But that is what it should have done.
Instead, 3,000 NRA members attended the convention in downtown Denver as thousands
Barely two weeks after Columbine, NRA held Denver meeting.
"It implies that you and I and 80 million honest gun owners
of protesters gathered a few blocks away to condemn their presence.
NRA president Charlton Heston delivered a defiant speech to the NRA members gathered at the meeting. In it, he shoved aside any notion of placing blame for the killings on the NRA. He also rejected the idea that the NRA should stay away from Denver for a while.
are somehow to blame," Heston told the crowd.
Instead, he blamed politicians and the media for trying to profit off of massacres such as Columbine.
Heston's remarks at the convention only added salt to the Denver area's fresh wound. Politicizing the issue and shifting blame, as Heston did, were completely inappropriate in that time and place.
But regardless of whether the NRA is responsible for those deaths, Heston and his organization should have had the decency and respect to allow the area to recover from its wounds and grieve in peace.

Watkins much closer to finding new director
By T.J. Johnson
fjohnson@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
The search committee for a new director at Watkins Memorial Health Center is nearing its goal. David Ambler, vice chancellor of student affairs, said the committee had interviewed all of the candidates and had issued their evaluations of each one.
Ambler said he would be making follow-up calls to the candidates to gather more information about them. Then, the new director will be chosen.
"My guess is that within the next two weeks we will be making an offer to someone," Ambler said.
Randall Rock, chief of staff at Watkins, said the search committee was looking for a permanent replacement for James Stroble who retired from the health center last year for health reasons. Rock said Jim Boyle had been the interim director since Stroble's retirement.
Ambler said the large group of people who interviewed each candidate had done a good job of evaluating the potential directors and providing comments about each one.
"You get positive comments on all the candidates and concerns about all of them, but I would say there were two candidates who had a lot of support from the people who talked to them," Ambler said.
Those comments came from the staff at Watkins, the search committee, the Student Health Advisory Board and administrative groups across campus.
Ambler said the wide variety of comments on the candidates would help the search committee to pick the most qualified candidate for the job as director of Watkins.
"It's been a good process, and we have been impressed with all the candidates," Ambler said. "I think this will result in a good new director at Watkins."

KU literary magazine gets new editor, financial help
New signs of life mark the 53rd issue of Cottonwood, the University of Kansas' professional literary publication.
By Dan Curry
dcurry@kanson.com
Kansas staff writer
After several years of on-again-off-again publishing and subscriptions at a meager 83 count, a new editor and staff launched the retoled *Cottonwood* last week.
The new Cottonwood now is published in partnership with the Lawrence Arts Center, and with financial support from Allen Press, said Tom Lorenz, associate professor of English and the publication's editor.
The publication features two chapters from nationally known writer Connie May Fowler's forthcoming book, poetry by KU professor Luci Tapahonso and photography from Lawrence photographer Jim Nedresky, Lorenz said. This issue also includes material from a host of other local and national authors.
Rick Mitchell, a director at the
Lawrence Arts Center, approached Lorenz with the idea of involving the Center with Cottonwood to support the local writing community.
The Arts Center will market the magazine locally and nationally, Mitchell said.
"I realized that Cottonwood had not been published in a couple years and that there were problems funding it and marketing it," Mitchell said.
"The thing needs to run at 500 plus to pay for itself, so my first goal is raise subscriptions," he said. "I would like, for example, to get every public library to get a subscription."
Cottonwood suffered a void when the previous editor, George Wedge, retired a couple years ago, Lorenz said.
"Phil Wedge stepped in as editor." Lorenz said, referring to the current poetry editor. "But there was a kind of vacuum when George left."
Students can contact Lorenz or the Arts Center for subscriptions. Individual copies are on sale at area book stores.

At the University of Kansas, more than four of five master's candidates in the School of Social Welfare are female. That mirrors the ratio of women social workers to men social workers nationwide.
KU statistics reflect national percentages
Enrollment figures for full and part-time master of social work candidates in the School of Social Welfare for the 1998-1999 school year showed that 373 students, or 83.1 percent, were female and 76 students, or 16.9 percent, were male.
By Allan Davis Special to the Kansan
Women dominate social work
Figures for last year, 1997-1998. showed 414 women, or 84.1 percent of the students and 78 men, or 15.9 percent of the students.
Melanie Hepburn, assistant dean of the School of Social Welfare, said these figures were comparable to the applicant pool for the school.
Enrollment statistics for bachelor of social work candidates for the 1998-1999 school year showed that 110 students, or 89.4 percent, were female and 13 students, or 10.6 percent, were male.
Figures for last year, showed 109 women, or 90.8 percent of the students and 11 men, or 9.2 percent of the students.
Jon Hiratsuka of the National Association of Social Workers said that April 1999 national membership figures showed that 122,053 members, or 80.2 percent, were female and 30,160, or 19.8 percent.
were male.
"The work of day-to-day care for the vulnerable and demand for social justice is not an overall valued contribution in our society." he said. "And thus, salaries are marginal and difficult to support a family."
School of Social Welfare student Melinda Carden, Lenexa senior, saw a similar cause for the gender imbalance.
"I think that the female dominance has a lot to do with the low status and pay of the profession," she said. "Many social workers don't make enough to support a family.
Sky Westerlund of Topeka, Licensed Master of Social Work and executive director of the Kansas chapter of the National Association of Social Workers, said the chapter's membership was 80 percent female and 20 percent male. He also said that ratio was typical across the profession.
Westerlund offered one reason why there are so few male social workers.
Westerlund said the social work profession had a history of being perceived as a female profession, as it grew out of the settlement house movement led by Jane Addams in Chicago.
Addams, a social reformer and cowinner of the 1931 Nobel Peace Prize, was one of the co-founders of Hull House, one of the first neighborhood social welfare agencies in North America.
"It also has to do with the nurturing aspects," Carden said. "Women
Jim Kreider, an instructor in the School of Social Welfare, said salaries were a factor in the gender imbalance. He also said that part of the reason for the imbalance was that social workers' values tended to be more 'feminine.' The values he mentioned were identifying with the underserved, human dignity, mutuality and the importance of relationships.
"Men are highly welcome in the profession," Westerlund said, "And they add a great deal to the depth and effectiveness of the practice of social work."
are traditionally seen as nurturers more than men."
Carden said the gender imbalance might be worrisome for some clients because they deserved to work with a professional they felt comfortable with, and some may want men.
Westerlund said there had been male leaders in social work, including Wilbur Cohen, who helped craft the original social security legislation, and Edward T. Devine, who founded what is now the premier social work school in nation, Columbia University School of Social Work in New York City.
There is, however, a role for men in social work.
Kreider suggested that eventually the gender imbalance may change.
"If those who predict that 'emotional quotient' will become more important than 'intelligence quotient' in the next few decades, we may see more men entering social work," he said.

Commentary
Pete Rose not worthy of invitation
You're stuck with me for another year, so this isn't one of those teary-eyed goodbye columns. This is about class, about morals and about holding people to such standards.
My dad and I went to a Kansas City Royals game last week — they actually won — and I couldn't help noticing the "Cooperstown Countdown" in the left field bullpen, telling the 15,000 or so in attendance that 83 days remained before George Brett's induction to the Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, N.Y.
This got me thinking about baseball's history and why Pete Rose should not join Brett, Ernie Banks and Lou Gehrig in shar
ing the sport's highest honor. Let me explain.
Mr. Detine explain.
With Nolan Ryan and Robin Yount also
accepting enshrement, Brett will be part
of quite possibly the greatest ever class of
inductees.
10
Ryan was the epitome of a hard-working, lead-by-example player. He never whined, never held out for a fatter contract and performed with *r*
Sam Mellinger sports@kansan.com
level of efficiency and consistency unmatched in sports for over two decades.
He came up with nothing more than ripped mesh and a disappointed look.
I've always thought of Brett and Yount as two of a kind, even before the Miller Lite commercial. They came into the majors at roughly the same time, stayed with one small-market team their entire careers and played like they loved the game.
Partly because I share the same birthday as Brett, I spent almost every May 15 as a kid at Kauffman Stadium. Once, Brett hit a foul ball straight for my seat along the first baseline. My dad sprung to his feet, ripped the mesh Royals hat off my head, reached over the wall and tried to grab the best birthday present I ever could have hoped for.
I took the episode in stride and forgot about it until a large, first-class, manila envelope with a Royals logo arrived at my house addressed for "Mr. Samuel Mellinger." My dad and I have the same first name, so I didn't get too excited until my mom told me to check it out.
I ripped it open and found a letter on Royals stationery from some official-sounding employee. Behind the letter was a 5x7 picture of George Brett, kneeling in front of the giant scoreboard at Kauffman Stadium. Over the bottom half of the picture were the words: "Sam — Happy Birthday, George Brett."
I still have that picture.
Several years later, I was jealous of a friend who went to a baseball card show where Pete Rose, baseball's all-time hits leader, was signing autographs. I begged my dad to take me, but had no luck.
But I was able to send a Topsps card of Rose sliding safely into third base with hopes of getting it back with a signature, so all was not lost.
When my friend returned with a blank card, he simply said, "You had to pay 50 bucks just to get in line. I didn't get one either."
What I didn't understand at the time was that Rose basically was doing anything he could for money after various scandals dirtied his name.
The rap sheet includes prison time for tax evasion and a lifetime suspension from baseball for alleged sports gambling, including bets not only on baseball, but also on games involving the team he was managing.
Mellinger is an Lawrence junior in journalism.
Thousands of fans bought tickets for supposedly fixed games involving Rose. Such compromising of baseball's integrity is justified reason for Rose's eternal ban and is something that even 4,256 base hits do nothing to overshadow.
Rose's accomplishments are justifiably recognized in Cooperstown with various memorabilia, but putting his bronze plaque next to the likes of Brett, Ryan and Yount would be an absolute injustice.
Nakia Sanford waits for WNBA
Center planning to finish school
Nakia Sanford gave her mom Jackie the mother's day gift she truly wanted.
She will be staying at the University of Kansas to finish her degree.
The fist-pumping, glaring-one-minute-grinning-the-next center, whom coach Marian Washington and nearly every Kansas player described as the emotional leader of this year's Jayhawks, is starting a new chapter in her life. But not exactly the one she had envisioned.
Santord, who was not selected in the four-round WNBA draft, was scheduled to leave today for a tryout with the WNBA's expansion Minnesota Lynx and then the Detroit Shock. She learned from her agent yesterday that neither will be holding tryouts this season.
The European basketball season extends from August through April, and many of the teams make roster changes in December.
After the fallout of the American Basketball League, Sanford knew that making a WNBA roster would be difficult but was looking forward to showcasing her skills in a preseason workout.
1 figured all the ABL players would make it tough to get drafted," she said. "I really wasn't that disappointed about it."
"I'm the first person in my family to even go to college," she said. "I just didn't want to come back to get my degree. It's very important that I finish."
"They send home a lot of the American players who don't work out," Sanford said. "Hopefully I can put up some good numbers and get picked up by a WNBA team next year."
Sanford became Kansas' fourth all-time leading rebounder this season with 832 career boards. She averaged 9.8 points per game during her senior campaign, leaving her just 31 points short of becoming only the fourteenth Jayhawk to total 1,000 points for the women's
Nakia Sanford
Only 12 college players were selected in a field of 50 filled with ex-ABL and foreign players. Even Big 12 Conference Player of the Year Angie Braziel had to wait until the fourth round where she was selected by the Charlotte Sting as the 45th overall pick.
So Sanford has decided to follow in the footsteps of former Jayhawks Lynette Woodard, Jerod Haase and a slew of others and take her game to Europe. She said her agent, Kansas City lawyer Brenda Watkins, would be setting up a tryout with a European professional team this summer. Then, after graduating in December with a degree in broadcast sales and management, she hopes to join a team at midseason in Europe.

team.
"I'm the first person in my family to even go to college, I just didn't want to come back to get my degree. It's very important that I finish."
"I'm going to miss everything about KU," she said of her December departure. "But it's time for me to move on and try something new."
Location is the only part of Sanford's game that will change. She has no intention of abandoning the emotional game that has carried her this far.
"When I can't do that anymore, there's no sense in playing," she said. "It's who I am, and that's the way I play."

Sell compiled rnday.
a 28-14 overall
singles record, including a 5-3
conference mark
"Kris has the weapons to beat anyone in the country," she said. "She's had a tough, competitive season."
Coach Jenny Garrity said Sell played well all season long.
Freshman Cheryl Malliach,
Sell's doubles partner in No.1
doubles, said Sell helped her
adjust to college tennis.
"We just really work well together," she said. "She helped me get through the tough matches."
Earlier in the season, Sell was
named the first women's tennis conference player for the 1999 season. She also qualified for the Rolex National Indoors Tournament, where she defeated three higher ranked players.
Sell said she had adjusted to playing ranked players.
In doubles, Sell and Malliah, ranked No. 49 nationally, posted a 14-19 record overall. The duo's biggest win came against Mississippi's Celeste Fry and Mariana Eberle, who were ranked No. 9 at the time, at the National Indoor Championship.
"In the beginning I was very intimidated to play higher ranked players because I was not ranked before," she said.
"Kris has waited a long time to be one of the top 50 players in the country," Garrity said. "She started at No. 87, so this shows that the hard work has paid off."
Two other singles players were also honored last week. Junior Brooke Chiller and Malliahaw were named individual singles conference champions at the No. 2 and No. 3 positions, respectively.
Chiller posted a 6-2 conference mark. At one point, Chiller had won eight of her last nine matches during the last month of play.
Garrity said Chiller had played well all year.
"She really improved a lot mentally and with her tennis skills," she said. "I'm so happy for her."
KANSAS TENNIS
Chiller also was named individual champion her freshman year at No.3 position.
Mallaiah posted a 7-1 mark at the No. 3 spot in conference play. Her only loss came to Martin Hautov of Oklahoma State, a defeat she revenued in the Jayhawks loss at the Big 12 Tournament.
Garrity said Mallaiah had had a great rookie season.
"She played very maturely and didn't let rankings get in the way of her tennis," she said.
Garrity was honored last week when she was named Big 12 tricoach of the year along with Oklahoma's Mark Johnson and Texas' Jeff Moore.
Last year, Garrity was named Atlantic Coast Conference coach of the year at North Carolina State.
Kansas will be back in action on Saturday against New Mexico in the first round of the NCAA Tournament in Albuquerque, N.M.

Randall gets 400th against Oral Roberts
Kansan sportswriter
By Matt Talfi sports@kansa
By Matt Tait
Through 13 seasons of coaching, Bobby Randall had compiled 388 victories. In this, his 14th season, however, it took him 52 games to reach number 400, but he finally got it Sunday with a win against Oral Robert's.
The win makes Randall just the fifth active Big 12 conference coach to achieve the milestone.
Baseball
It was his 11th try since reaching number 399.
The 400th win, while not altogether easing the pain of a season of losses, does provide the Jayhawks with some relief and, more importantly, came against a team that had compiled 39 wins and was ranked in the Top 30 all season long.
Sunday's finale of four straight games with the Golden Eagles, came one day after Kansas set a new school record for losses in a season. At 12-40, the 'Hawks have lost more than any other team in Kansas history, breaking the mark of 39 set by the 1987 squad.
Despite setting that record, the Jayhawks have played better baseball lately, but just could not catch a break.
"The whole year we've got something going early, but then we can't produce in the later innings," second baseman Brandon O'Neal said. "That's been our season."

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday:
Your network of friends provides inspiration this year. Take care of them and they will take care of you in May. Study a subject you love in June and settle down to business in August. An overload leads to a partnership in late October and November, and a surprise legacy could be yours in December. Return to an old dream in February, and let a friend inspire you in March. By April, you'll have won the battle:
Aries (March 21-April 19): Today is a 5.
Mike (February 4, 2019) Ted (July 3, 2019)
You may be feeling pestered about what you haven't accomplished yet. It's like somebody's trying to tell you that you need to get out and make your life what you've always wanted it to be. Don't be afraid.
You're courageous in everything else.
Taurus (April 20-May 20); Today is a 6.
Your friends are your best source of inspiration today They can help you figure out what to do next, in case you're not quite sure. You do have a pretty good plan of action, but you may still be worried about a few matters.
Gemini (May 21-June 21): Today is a 5.
Gemini (may 21- June 21): Today is an older person wants to give you some good advice today, and you'd be wise to take it. Don't think you know it all quite yet. That would be a sure way of proving you don't. Instead, just listen quietly to a person who speaks softly.
Cancer (June 22-July 22): Today is a 6.
Romance almost blossoms today, but not quite. It looks like there's something you need to say, but you don't know how to put it into words. Choose a location you're familiar with — your own home is the best spot.
Leo (Julv 23-Aug. 22): Today is a 5.
You may be in a nasty mood today, not wanting to do what you're being asked to do, but feeling you have no choice. Before you get too upset, remember your goals. You might be in a battle for control that isn't even necessary.
Virago (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Today is a 5.
Virgin (Aug. 23-September 14)
Your partner is your best source of inspiration today. Looks like you're blocked in getting what you want, but working together, you can make it happen.
You've got to have faith and courage, of course, but even more than that, you need to be creative.

This is a good day for creative projects. The Pisces moon will help you come up with brilliant new ideas. Some of them might be a little unrealistic, but that's OK. Get a whole bunch of ideas together, then pick the ones that actually might work.
**Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21):** Today is a b.
Looks like you could run into a little opposition day, but don't worry. You'll find a way around it. Besides, you've got a friend who will help. Somebody you know and care a lot about is hiding in the corners, waiting to give you the cue you need to succeed.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Today is a 5.

If you're looking for money to buy something for your home, how about looking at your home for a way to make the money? That could be anything from selling old stuff to refinancing the house. It does look like there's a connection.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Today is a 6.
You should be in the mood to learn all this week, and you'll be good at it. You can concentrate your attention much better than usual when the sun is in Taurus. Right now, with the moon in your sign, you're probably interested in metaphysical subjects.

Letters from George Bush found in Olympic records
Kansan staff report
ATLANTA — Former President George Bush sent personal letters to each IOC member just before the final vote for the 1996 Atlanta Olympics, according to records released by bid organizers.
The records show Attanta organizers also enlisted the State Department, then-Vice President Dan Ouaveil and then-Sen. Sam Nunn.
The records are being examined to see if they contain evidence of corruption such as that uncovered in Salt Lake City's successful bid for the 2002 Winter Games.
The nine boxes are a fraction of 4,000 boxes of Olympic documents kept by the athletics foundation, which Payne founded to spearhead Atlanta's bid.
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported yesterday that the documents were in nine boxes of Olympic records released by the Georgia Amatur Athletics Foundation. A bid team memo said Bush's message was "very effective."
射
Atlanta beat out Athens, Toronto and Birmingham, England, for the 1996 Summer Games.
The Journal-Constitution and the foundation are in a legal dispute regarding the release of the rest of the records.
Bush also videotaped a two-minute message that Atlanta organizers presented to the International Olympic Committee during its final bid presentation in September 1990 in Tokyo.
Such conduct by a head of state is not unusual in the bid process, and no wrongdoing has been linked to Bush's actions.
fore not governed by the state's Open Records Act, State Attorney General Thurburt Baker has said they are open, prompting the foundation to sue.
A U.S. House subcommittee investigating the Salt Lake scandal is investigating the files.
The athletics foundation contends the documents are the property of a group of private citizens, and there-

Gov. Roy Barnes said the records should be open because the games involved public funding for transportation and security.

Vaughn, in a 5-for-40 slump, homered into the second deck in left field in each of his first two at-bats to extend a brief power surge. He homered and flied out to the wall in his last two at-bats Saturday, then hit homers that went 436 and 415 feet in his first two plate appearances yesterday, giving him seven for the season.
The Cubs overcame a three-run deficit and tied it at 5 as streaking Tyler Houston drove in three runs with a pair of singles. But the Cubs' reluctance to let Barry Larkin beat them again helped the Reds go ahead to stay with a three-run seventh.
Terry Adams (O-1), making his first appearance since being disabled by a sprained elbow, walked Dmitri Young starting the seventh and got a pair of strikeouts.
Scott Williamson (3-1) pitched out of a threat in the seventh to get the win, and Danny Graves got three outs for his fifth save in seven chances.
After pinch runner Michael Tucker stole second on Myers' second pitch to Larkin, the Cubs chose to walk him and face Lewis, the Cubs's two-run double in the ninth off Rod Beck had given the Reds a 2-win in the series opener.
Both homers yesterday came off Scott Sanders, who lasted a season-low three-plus innings and gave up five runs and eight hits. Johnson also homered off Sanders to start the fourth.

Baseball team celebrates 400th win
Continued from page 7A
That prophecy held true in the series with Oral Roberts.
Kansas jumped out and played well in all but one of the games, but failed to hold on and execute down the stretch.
That is until Sunday's game.
After starting the game with a run in the first inning, and then four in the second, the Jayhawks, behind starter Rusty Philbrick's best performance in more than a month, quickly ran up a 6-1 lead. That score reached 7-3 on 15 hits by the Hawks.
In the seventh, however, things appeared to be headed in the same direction that they have all season, as ORU loaded the bases and drove in three runs, cutting the lead to
7-6. But then, the often-called upon O'Neal came in to pitch the final three innings
He slammed the door, allowing only one hit and no runs in the closing stretch.
The loss was only the fourth all year at home for Oral Roberts.
On Friday and Saturday Oral Roberts beat the Jayhawks, winning 15-5 and 10-2.
Philbrick went 6/1 3 innings, struck out five and picked up his third win. O'Neal earned the save.
The Golden Eagles pounded out 28 hits and stole 13 bases in the two games and controlled Kansas in all facets of the game.
"It was a tough night," Randall said after Saturday's loss. "ORU really had their bats going tonight, and I just hope we can come back and get them tomorrow."
For the weekend, outfielder Brett Kappelmann picked up six hits, O'Neal and utility man Doug Dreher picked up five hits apiece. Third baseman Ryan Klocksien added three hits.
They did.
In a season that saw few wins, many losses, both poor and exceptional play, coaches under fire and few breaks bouncing the Jayhawk's way. Kansas is finishing on the winning track.
The final home stand of the season will be Saturday and will feature a farewell to the five seniors. Game one will begin at noon and the second will begin approximately 30 minutes after the first ends.

Track finishes stellar regular season
Kansas runs away with nine titles; changes focus to Big 12 tournament
By Mike Miller
sports@kanson.com
Kansas sportswriter
The men's and women's track teams concluded the regular season impressively, combining for nine titles at the Iowa Invitational.
It was the most titles won during the outdoor season by the Jayhawks in one meet. In all, Kansas combined for 33 top five finishes.
"We were able to put some people into events to get them ready for the conference championships in two weeks," said Kansas coach Gary Schwartz.
Seniors led the way on the men's side as Kevin McGinn, Colby Miller and Lester Smith each captured first place titles in the final meet of their careers.
McGinn's winning time of 3:54.94 in the 1,500-meter run just beat sophomore Brian Blachly.
"Brian and I decided that before the race we'd concentrate on racing and not going for time. But it turned out he ran a great race and set a personal best," McGinn said.
Miller's vault of 16-10 1/4 gave him his fifth pole vault title of the season and was his second highest vault of the year.
Smith competed in his first meet in two weeks, but captured his second triple jump title of the season with a mark of 49-5 1/4.
Sophomore Scott Russell won his 11th title of the year, throwing 228-0 in the javelin. His 197-7 heave in the hammer throw earned him a second place finish. But, the technical aspects of his throw left him unsatisfied.
"I think I fixed the technical things. Everyone can expect to throw a personal best sometime during the season. I haven't done it yet, so I'm planning on it now," Russell
said.
Other men's winners included sophomore Andy Morris, who won his first title of the year, jumping 6-4 in the high jump. The 1,600-meter relay team of freshman Dorian Jordan, sophomore Jabari Wamble, sophomore Charlie Gruber and Morris won with a time of 3:16.98.
The women's team won three titles, including a shared title for sophomore Andrea Branson and freshman Shannon Agee in the pole vault. The mark of 11-6 1/4 gave Branson her seventh title of the season and Agee her second, but was the first time Agee provisionally qualified for the NCAA Championships.
TRACK AND FIELD
Freshman Jennifer Foster threw the shot put 42-9/3, finishing first. She also finished second in the discus and fourth in the hammer.
Sophonore Marlea Woodman threw the discus a season best 164-8 1/2 for her second title of the year, while garnering a second place finish in the hammer.
A meet next weekend at Emporia is available, but only a few athletes will compete in unattached events.
Meaning, they have to find their own transportation to Emporia to compete, and if they do compete, it will not be in a Kansas uniform.
The Emporia meet allows athletes one more opportunity to qualify for the NCAA Championships and a chance to smooth out technical problems in certain events.
But, most will focus on the Big 12 Conference meet, May 21-23 in Waco, Texas. A solid year for the men's team could translate into a pleasant surprise at Waco.
"This is the strongest team I've been on since I've been here," McGinn said.
"To win a conference meet, you really have to have all cylinders firing, and I think we can do some things down there."

Williams wins title amidst distractions
Email: specialist@strategicstaff.net
The Associated Press
ROME — Venus Williams always had the power. Now, with the French Open looming, it seems she has the patience as well.
For the second straight week and against the same opponent, Williams won a clay title — routing Mary Pierce 6-4, 6-2 at the Italian Open.
And not even a host of on-court distractions — bees in the grandstand, ringing cell phones, car horns from a soccer stadium could stop the 18-year-old Californian.
Supposedly lacking the finesse and deliberation for clay courts Williams had plenty of both along with 12 aces — against a player limited by a strained groin.
"It's exciting. I'm not sure I'm a clay-court specialist, though," Williams said. "You just have to play well, no matter what the surface is. I just always play to win."
Last week in Hamburg, Germany. Williams beat Pierce for her first clay title. She has won more than any other woman in 1999, with four WTA titles to three for
Williams set up points, waiting for Pierce to err. She took few risks, anticipating the right moment to unleash her commanding strokes. She punished Pierce's pedestrian serve.
Williams eliminated Hingis in the semifinals and then Pierce, the 1997 champion in Rome.
No. 1 Martina Hingis.
"When her first serve is on, she's tough to beat." Pierce said. "The thing about playing Venus is that she's powerful. If you give her short balls, you put yourself in a difficult position."
Add it all up — back-to-back titles, the win over Hingis, a 57-minute rout of Anna Kournikova in the third round — and Williams figures to contend in Paris. The French Open, the only major on clay, starts May 24.
"I hate making excuses for myself," the Frenchwoman said. "I played, and I fought, and I tried to play the best I could. Obviously, it was bothering me for most of my shots and my running. That was frustrating."
Williams lost to Hingis in the quarterfinals at Roland Garros last year. Williams' best Grand Slam showing is a spot in the 1997 U.S. Open final on hard courts.
"My main problem on clay before was that I hadn't hardly played on it," said Williams, who lost to Hingis in the Rome final a year
ago.
"I was learning some tough lessons, basically ... My first year at the French Open, I lost to Nathalie Tauziat in the third round. If I played that match now, what a difference there would be."
She says her biggest adjustment to clay — used mainly in Europe — was getting used to the unsure footing. On Sunday, though, her biggest problem was the commotion.
In the first set, a swarm of bees invaded a section of the grandstand, sending fans scurrying or waving newspapers in defense. Amid the fuss, Williams double faulted to give Pierce three break points, then double faulted again and Pierce tied it 3-3.
I'm not sure I'm a clay-court specialist, though. You just have to play well, no matter what the surface is.I just always play to win."
The players also had to contend with cell phones, car horns, a whirring airplane engine and shrill feedback from a loud-speaker.
Williams earned $150,000 and Pierce earned $70,000.
Also, Pierce asked for a three minute medical timeout following the third game to have her left thigh bandaged. The trainer rewrapped the leg on subsequent changeovers.

Hingis teamed with Kournikova to win the doubles title, beating the French pair of Tauziat and Alexandra Fusai 6-2, 6-2.
The men's Italian Open starts Monday, with Veygen Kafelnikov and Pete Sampras the top two seeds.

NBA Plavoffs
76ers rally to beat Magic
The Associated Press
ORLANDO, Fla. — When Allen Iverson wasn't the answer, Matt Geiger was.
Iverson, the smallest player in NBA history to win a scoring title, had 30 points in his playoff debut, while Geiger led a fourth-quarter surge that carried Philadelphia to a
surged that carried Philadelphia to a 100-gear floor.
104-90 victory against the Orlando Magic in the opening game of their best-of-five series yesterday.
Hardly looking like a team in the playoffs for the first time in eight years, the 76ers used an 11-0 run to pull away for good. Geiger had 12 of his 23 points in the last period and finished with 10 rebounds.
Iverson struggled after scoring 18 points in the opening half, missing 10 of his first 13 shots in the second half. But he held his composure and provided the basket that gave Philadelphia the lead for good mid-nightwork the fourth quarter.
Philadelphia the lead for good midway through the fourth quarter.
Penny Hardaway led Orlando with 19 points, but only scored three in the second half. Nick Anderson added 18 and rookie
George Lynch had 15 points and 12 rebounds for the 76ers, who won two of the three regular-season meetings against Orlando, which had the best home record in the Eastern Conference this year at 21-4.
Anderson added 18 and rookie Michael Doleac had 11.
The Magic shot only 34 percent from the field in the first two quarters, yet trailed just 50-47 at the half because they outscored the 76ers 23-6 from the foul line while attempting 31 free throws compared to Philadelphia's 13.
In three regular-season games against Orlando, Iverson averaged nearly 23 points a game but wasn't nearly as explosive as he was against the rest of the league.
The Magic held him to 16 points in one game and 14 in another, although cold shooting probably was as much of a factor as Orlando's defense.
The 76ers star set the tone early with 11 first-quarter points and two assists, including a lob to Larry Hughes that the Philadelphia rookie caught on the baseline for a dunk.
The Magic stayed close by living on the foul line, particularly in the last six minutes of the second quarter when they trimmed four points off Philadelphia's lead despite going scoreless from the field.
Anderson's three-point shot tied the game early in the third quarter, and the Magic went ahead briefly before the 76ers settled down to lead 70-69 going into the final period.
■ Notes: Once one of the toughest places in the NBA to get a ticket, Orlando Arena was not sold out for Sunday's game. Attendance was announced as 15,267 — 1,981 shy of capacity. About 3,000 tickets were available 90 minutes before tipoff. Although the 76ers are in the playoffs for the first time since 1991, eight of the 15 players the team had postseason experience before Sunday. Rick Mahorn, who's in his 16th season, led the way with 101 games. The other seven — Tyrone Hill, Eric Snow, Harvey Grant, Aaron McKie, George Lynch, Matt Geiger and Theo Rattliff — had a combined 94 games of playoff experience. Iverson won the scoring title despite shooting just .412 from the field, the lowest mark by a scoring champion since George Mikan shot 40.7 percent during the 1949-50 season.

INGLEWOOD, Calif. — Two clutch defensive plays, a block by Shaquille O'Neal and a pounce by Derek Fisher, made the Los Angeles Lakers winners yesterday.
O'Neal blocked Cuttino Mobley's layup attempt at the final buzzer, and Fisher had 20 points, six assists, three steals and one crucial recovery of a loose ball as the Lakers beat the Houston Rockets 101-100 in their playoff series opener.
Hakeem Olajuweng's three-point play with 1:03 remaining gave the Rockets a 100-98 lead, and then O'Neal cut the advantage in half by making a foul shot with 28.4 seconds left.
The Rockets were running the shot clock down when Scottie Pippen lost his footing and control of the ball while being guarded by Kobe Bryant. Fisher came racing in, pounced on the ball and called timeout with 7.6 seconds to play.
Bryant then was fouled by Sam Mack as he drove toward the basket and made two free throws with 5.3 seconds left and gave the Lakers a 101-100 lead
The Rockets had one final try, but came up empty when the rookie Mobley's driving layup was swatted
LAKERS
out of bounds by O'Neal as time ran out.
Glen Rice led the Lakers with 29 points. O'Neal scored nine of his 27 points in the fourth quarter, and also had 11 rebounds and four blocked shots. Bryant finished with 17 points, five rebounds and five assists.
Barkley scored 12 of his 25 points in the final period and had 10 rebounds. Oliauwon, hammered by
problems, had 22 points and eight rebounds, and Pippen had 14 points, 10 rebounds and eight assists.
Mack scored 11 of his 13 points in the final quarter as the Rockets battled back from a 77-70 deficit.
But in the end, it wasn't enough.
Two foul shots by Bryant with 1.31 to go made it 97-96, and Fisher made two more free throws 14 seconds later after stealing the ball from Moblev.
The Rockets trimmed an 11-point halftime lead to two late in the third quarter before Rice scored five points as the Lakers went on a 7-2 run to finish the quarter with a seven-point lead.
Game 2 in the first-round best-of-five series is tomorrow night at the Forum; the third game is Thursday night at Houston.
SAN ANTONIO — Tim Duncan and the No. 1 seeded San Antonio Spurs wouldn't let the Minnesota Timberwolves hang around for a full 48 minutes.
Duncan dominated for the Spurs once again, scoring 26 points, grabbing 12 rebounds and leading San Antonio past the Minnesota Timberwolves 99-86 in game one of their playoff series yesterday.
Win gives Spurs series lead
The Associated Press
The Timberwolves kept the conte close until the fourth quarter, when San Antonio opened a comfortable double-digit lead with the Alamodome crowd shouting "M-V-P, M-V-P" for Duncan.
David Robinson had 12 points and eight rebounds for the Spurs. Avery Johnson added 21 points and had 10 assists and Sean Elliott scored 14 points.

After trailing 50-49 at halftime, the Timberwolves took the lead three times in the first three minutes of the third period, but San Antonio moved back in front each time.
A jumper by Johnson sparked a 9-2 rally that gave San Antonio a 10-point advantage with just under four minutes left in the period. Still, Minnesota edged back in and trailed only 73-66 entering the fourth.
Jaren Jackson's layup followed by a Duncan dunk moved San Antonio up 85-70 with 8:39 remaining. Six unanswered points by Minnesota made it 85-76
with 7:03 remaining. Then Robinson's two free throws and another basket by Duncan put the Spurs ahead 89-78 and the game out of reach with 5:56 remaining.
Kevin Garnett led Minnesota with 21 points and eight rebounds. Sam Mitchell added 19 points and Terrell Brandon had 16 points and 11 assists.

Bench scoring helps Indiana outpace Bucks
The Associated Press
INDIANAPOLIS — Indiana's mastery of the Milwaukee Bucks continued Sunday as reserve Jalen Rose scored a playoff career-high 24 points, including 17 in the second quarter, and the Pacers recorded a 110-88 victory in the opening game of their best-of-5 series.
Indiana held off a third quarter surge by Milwaukee, which reduced a 14-point halftime deficit to six late in the quarter. The Pacers responded by taking a 20-point lead several times in the fourth quarter.
Indiana did most of the damage in the final quarter with its reserves on the court. Indiana's reserves outscored Milwaukee's bench 55-19.

The Bucks, in the playoffs for
the first time since 1991, had taken a 9-2 lead before Indiana began asserting its playoff experience.
Two free throws by Miller with 3:24 left in the opening period began the run as the Bucks were
going 3 1/2 minutes without scoring. Miller, Indiana's career-leader in playoff scoring, had 10 in the opening period, which ended with the Pacers leading 27-24.
Rose scored 17 points in the second period, sparking the Pacers to a 60-46 lead at halftime. Rose had Indiana's final eight points in the last 54 seconds of the half, hitting a 3-pointer, a lavup and a three-point play.
Ray Allen, who had struggled as Indiana swept the Bucks in three meetings during the regular season, led the Bucks with 22 points.
Indiana dominated the boards 26-14 in the first half.

A long time ago in a strip mall far, far away, rebel spies stake out positions outside an Imperial Wal-Mart, awaiting the arrival of Jedi merchandise that might aid their struggling star systems. Trade federation droids, cruising by in their Pintos, throw out insults of "nerf herder" and "space dweeb." But the rebels do not despair, and their efforts are rewarded with six-inch-high warriors of plastic and die-cast metal, ensuring peace across the galaxy...
The Fantom Menace

BENCH
Bryan Anderson, Lawrence senior and self-professed Jedi, displays his collection of Star Wars goodies.
Star Wars fever is in full-swing, and Lawrence citizens have caught the wave.
The upcoming release of Star Wars: Episode I — The Phantom Menace — the first in a planned series of three prequels — opens May 19 on more than 2,000 North American screens. Fans came out in the wee hours of the morning last week to grab the latest tie-in merchandise from the flick.
Action figures, plastic light sabers and novelizations all flew off store shelves and the eager hands of
into the eager hands or
Star Wars fans — some young, and some not so young.
Bryan Anderson, Lawrence senior, was among those who participated in the mayhem. Anderson, whose answering machine blares the familiar Star Wars theme before listeners can leave messages, traces his
fascination with the George Lucas space opera back to his mother. Literally.
"My mom saw it when she was pregnant with me," Anderson said. "So, it was kind of the first movie I went to. When it was on TV later, my eyes kind of lit up."
the release of the original trilogy of pictures — Star Wars, The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi
- helped respark Anderson's fascination with the series. His hopes are high for The Phantom Menace, which tells the story of Anakin Skywalker, the young Jedi who eventually becomes bad-guy extraordinaire Darth Vader.
"I'm really interested to see the Jedi in action and
the new computer effects,
Anderson said, describing
the saga as a modern-day,
philosophical myth about
honor and magic. "This has affected the people from my generation. I've not met anyone who doesn't really like it."
Even so, there are a few, such as John Tibbetts, associate professor of film, who are disgusted with the commercialism that's associated with Lucas' creation.
"There was a wonderful surprise to the original tie-in merchandise with the first series." Tibbets said.
In the 70s and 80s, people purchased the Star Wars items for play. Now, many of the people buying the toys, Tibbets said, are collectors who are only interested in making an investment.
"What's the good of buying an action figure if you keep it in the box?" he said. "And why are we worrying about the value in the first place?"
But the billions of dollars that Star Wars merchandise pulls in has an advantage, others said. The profits from Lucas' merchandise deals with Pepsi and Hasbro — as well as from his home-grown special effects firm, Industrial Light & Magic — allow him to finance the pictures independently. In a recent interview with Premiere magazine, Lucas described himself as an independent filmmaker with a distant relationship with Hollywood.
"He's not using any Hollywood money to make the prequels, he's
using his own, and maintaining artistic control," Anderson said. "But people like it, and he doesn't have to go to a studio and beg them to get the movie made the way he wants it."
Added to the merchandising is the extensive hype surrounding The Phantom Menace. Easily, it's one of the most eagerly anticipated films of all time, and the Internet rumor has been swirling for years with false reports, "spoiler" information and other prequel innuendo. Most of the online reports — including those that actors Kenneth Branagh and James Van der Beek had been approached for acting roles in later episodes — have been denounced by Lucas.
tions to keep his movie secret until May 19, plot points are now in the public domain.
Tibbetts shudders to think that by the time he makes it to that first screening of The Phantom Menace,the plot will no longer be a novelty.
Some movie gossip sites such as "Ain't It Cool News" and "Corona Coming Attractions" have already posted reviews of The Phantom Menace's screenplay and reports from press screenings last week. Despite Lucas' inten-

"If I go on the 19th, and I find out all that stuff in advance, I'll still go," Falk said.
That, of course, begs the question: What if The Phantom Menace doesn't live up to the hope?
"Well, it is only a movie, of course," Anderson said. "I will be disappointed. But I'm expecting it to be incredible."

Ratzlaff said the computer system was not capable of recording advance tickets. Hence, the management is preparing for the likelihood of campouts before the movie opens on May 19th. "I imagine some people will try to camp out." Ratzlaff said. "Unfortunately, sleeping here and things like that can't happen."
Showing the film has its own stipulations too. At the moment, the theater will only have two prints, or two reels of the movie. This means that there only will be two showings

"At the moment we are thinking about a ten ticket limit," he said.
The first showing of the film will be 12.01 Wednesday morning, Ratzlaff said. "I'm excited to see it, not exactly excited to work it." he said.

Graduation special

Ceremony steeped in tradition symbolism
By Doug Pacey Special to the Kansan
Tradition will be alive and well during graduation this year with events such as walking
University of Kansas students have been taking the walk since 1924, when the first class of graduates walked down the Hill for the commencement ceremony. Although students did not walk through the Campanile until its dedication in 1951, the walk down the Hill was still a rite of passage.
down Campanile Hill and eating lunch with the chancellor.
"When you take the walk down the Hill, it symbolizes the end of a journey," said Steve Hacklman, Overland Park senior. "It's part of tradition."
Legend has it that if a student walks through the Campanile before commencement day, that person will not graduate from KU. Though University officials do not have proof of this on record, many underclassmen are not willing to risk it.
"If there is some legend that says I might not graduate if I walk through something, you can be sure that I won't do it," said Brian Hughes, Great Bend freshman. "You can't mess with tradition and things like that."
In past years, the walk down the Hill has taken graduates more than two hours. However, that amount of time has been cut to 30 minutes in recent years. The change started in 1995 when the traditions committee suggested that the graduates walk in two lines down the Hill instead of one. The reason the committee decided to quicken the pace of the ceremony was because the heat in mid-May caused some observers to suffer from heat exhaustion.
Even though to speed of the walk has increased, there is plenty of opportunity for fun. Groups of graduates still carry canoes and other odd items down the Hill.
Another tradition at KU is not having a commencement speaker.
"If we had a former president or secretary of state here, all of the focus would be on them and not the students," said Jeff Weinberg, assistant to the chancellor.
The newest tradition at the University was started last year by Chancellor Robert Hemenway and his wife, Leah. They open their house to all graduates and their guests for a commencement day luncheon.

p. m.on Memorial Drive near Campanile
By Doug Pacey Special to the Kansan
On May 23, graduates of the University of Kansas will bid farewell to the University and Lawrence with a turning of the tassel at the commencement ceremony.
Commencement will begin at 2:30 p.m. and conclude at 4:15 p.m. Though the ceremony itself is less than two hours long, awards and recognition ceremonies brunches, lunches, dinners, receptions, initiation ceremonies and hoodings for the degree candidates are planned for the weekend.
A commencement day lunch will be held at Chancellor Robert Hemenway's House, The Outlook, 1532 Lilac Lane, from 10:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. A brief program including the Chancellor's Awards, the presentation of the Class of 1999's gift and banner, and recognition of honorary class members will begin at 11:30 a.m. The lunch is open only to graduates and their guests.
"This is a new tradition that the Chancellor and his wife have started," Jeff Weinberg, assistant to the Chancellor, said. "The
luncheon began last year and will become a tradition."
Graduates will assemble on Memorial Drive near the Campanile at 2 p.m. to prepare for their walk down the Hill into Memorial Stadium for the commencement ceremony.
One difference from last year that will affect the family and friends in attendance is the lack of seating in Memorial Stadium. Because it is being renovated, people will not be allowed to sit on the west side of the stadium. Graduates still will be seated in the

Alumni Association opens doors to mentors, friends
By Betsy Schnorenberg Special to the Kansan
Some say the best years of seniors' lives are ending as they prepare for graduation, but the good times don't have to end at the bottom of Campanile Hill.
The Alumni Association keeps the Jayhawk flock together through membership, chapters, activities and tradition. Membership is available to graduates, faculty, staff, students and friends of the University.
"We want students to be a part of the Alumni Association in order to stay connected to the best years and the best friends of their lives," said Sheila Immel, vice president for external affairs and membership.
The Alumni Association boasts a regular membership of about 43,000, one of the strongest in the United States, Immel said. That number increases by 2,000 to 3,000 just after graduation, when new graduates receive a free six-month trial membership.
"One of the very best parts of joining before leaving the roost is the local chapters," Immel said. "They keep Jayhawks connected, doing family stuff, singles stuff, just having fun."
Adams Alumni Center
There are 101 alumni chapters. The Kansas City area chapter counts for one-fourth of all members.
Glee Smith, former Kansas legislator, has been a very active member since his 1943 graduation. He said that being part of the association showed his love and allegiance to the University.
"I write to other class members to encourage them to come back for activities like the alumni weekends." Smith said. "I get to see all my old friends in the place I knew best. If you get involved, it will stay with you for the rest of your life."
For students, membership fosters a bond between former and current students. That chain, lengthened through the years, facilitates the passing of tradition, ideas and loyalties. There are about 400 student members. Student members join Hawk-Talk to get a foot in the door of the professional world.
"Many people don't really know what the Alumni Association is all about," Immel said. "We want to get students, especially seniors, in here to show them. We know that once they visit, they'll want to keep coming back."
Members enjoy a numerous benefits including discounts, merchandise and services. Services include Find-a-Hawk and Hawk Talk. Find-a-Hawk is a locating service that searches the association's 229,472 addresses to find old friends or professors.
Hawk Talk is a mentor program available to graduate and student members, which consists of more than 450 professionals in all areas of work. The mentor program helps students by pairing them with professional mentors that work in the same profession.
Students get advice on what classes to take and a taste of what that career is really like. For graduates, Hawk Talk provides an established network within the professional arena, which leads to jobs and other opportunities.

Membership is also an invitation into the Adams Alumni Center, where members can enjoy private dining, a full service bar and banquet facilities. The building, constructed only 16 years ago, displays memorabilia and artifacts.
"The Alumni Center is a second home for everyone to come back to, bring the kids, have fun." Immel said. Kendall Day, St. Francis senior, has been an Alumni Association student member since his freshman year and also served as president of the Student Alumni Association. After he graduates, he will become a mentor for other students.
Student members may join SAA, a separate organization, to become more involved in activities through volunteer work for campus events and community service. "So far, I have made a lot of friends, young and old."

Graduation to ease student's burden
38-year-old juggles duties, earns degree
By Matt Cox Special to the Kansan
Karen sat down in her Math 105 class, took off her backpack and set it on the floor. She lifted her head and began listening to the lecture.
The professor, attempting to relate the past to his lecture, stopped and used an old teacher-to-student cliché. He started his statement with the phrase "You all are too young to remember this."
A few students near Karen glanced at her. She just raised her eeyebrows and smiled slightly.
Karen Averill, a Lansing senior majoring in music education, takes the classes that any other music education major would. But that is where the similarities end.
Averill is not the typical college student. She doesn't go to fraternity parties on the weekends, nor does she involve herself in campus life. She can't.
That is because Averill is a 38-year-old student, wife and mom whose dream begins when she
walks down the Hill this month.
walks down the hill this month.
Averill, though, is not alone.
According to the Office of Institutional Research and Planning,
1,407 undergraduates in Fall 1998 were older than 25. She also is one of 761 students who reported that they were married with children in Fall 1998.
Averill has sacrificed time with friends and rearranged her family schedule to get her music education degree. She plans to teach elementary or middle school music classes.
Averill said traditional students were very accepting and treated her as an equal.
Averill's day starts at 6:30 a.m. with family duties and a 45-minute commute to Lawrence.
She attends class from 9:30 a.m.
until 3:20 p.m. Her studies usually
have to wait until 8:30 p.m., after
her family is fed and the children
are tucked in. She said she often
didn't finish until 1 or 2 in the
morning.
Averill studies every chance she gets and strives for perfect grades, but it's not always possible. With 20 credit hours of classes, it's hard
for something not to suffer, she said.
"I would like better grades sometimes, but there are times when I have things I need to take care of at home, and my schoolwork takes a backseat," she said.
Sometimes she skips her final class to buy groceries for the family or to direct an extra church choir practice. With all this going on, sleep tended to elude her, she said.
There are many times when she doesn't get to work in her studies or her job until she's helped her kids with their homework and baths, fed the family dinner and tucked everyone in.
Averill started taking three hours of Kansas City Community College courses a semester at night when her boys were younger. Four years ago, she increased her time there to nine to 12 credit hours per semester. She transferred to KU two years ago as a full-time student.
With this load, her time with friends has virtually disappeared, she said.
"I joke saying after I get my degree, I must try and get my friends back," she said.
Averill and her husband made the decision for her to go to KU together. Since then, he has picked up where she left off at home.
In addition to support from her friends, she has also gotten support from her husband.
She was a stay-at-home mom for nine years before she went to pursue her music degree full-time. They have had to make adjustments in the duties around the house. Although he didn't do domestic chores exactly how she used to do them, he had been a great provider, she said.
In spite of the difficulties, Averill said her goals keep her going.
"I believe I am more goal-oriented than some students," she said.
She said that traditional students usually come to college unsure of what they want to do. Averill knew exactly what she came to school to do, and she was aware of the sacrifices she was going to have to make to achieve her degree. But she said the struggle was worth it.
"It's hard to get excited when you have no time to comprehend excitement," she said. "But I am so excited to begin student teaching next year."

KU seniors regret choices, mistakes from college years
By RaeAnn Chadwick Special to the Kanson
Would have. Could have. Should have.
As graduation approaches, this is the sentiment of some KU seniors.
"I should've gone with my gut feeling in choosing a major," said Mike Martin, Overland Park senior. "If I had to do it all over again, I would've."
Martin said that he enjoyed studying history and philosophy, but that he chose a degree in business because it was practical and he feared he would miss job opportunities if he didn't.
Chase Johanssen, Leawood senior, pursued degrees in history and religious studies. He said he only regretted waiting until the last minute to fulfill his general requirements. Johanssen said he planned to get a master's degree in history and advised freshmen to schedule classes after 12:30 p.m.
"A social life is easier to incorporate that way." Johansen said.
Jade Brown, Lawrence senior, agreed. He said that students who locked themselves in the library and got straight A's might have learned a lot academically, but they left KU the same person.
"Students need to realize that everything they study was developed by people just like them who were coming to terms with the meaning of life, but if they don't have a life to apply it to what does it matter," Brown said.
Other students wished they would have been more involved in scholastic activities.
"I wish I could've done more internships and joined clubs sooner, but I was too busy going to
summer school to try and speed things up," said Sean Battle, Roeland Park senior.
Battle, whose degree will be in civil engineering, said that if he could start again he would go directly to KU rather than to a community college.
"A lot didn't transfer so I ended up paying for some classes twice," Battle said.
Abigail Briggs, Topeka senior, said she wished she would have taken her time choosing a major.
Briggs began her college career studying engineering, but said that she was stuck with a lot of classes that didn't transfer when she decided to change majors.
"I don't really like math anymore but everything that transferred over had to do with math or physics," Briggs said.
Todd Simms, Memphis senior,
said that if he could change anything,
he would probably switch majors as well.
"I enjoyed studying English, but as a liberal arts major, I feel like I have to work twice as hard to convince people in the business world that I can do the job." Sims said.
Most students agreed that it was important to talk to teachers.
"They're more understanding if you have problems if you go in and talk to them instead of just waiting and not talking to anyone about it," Briggs said.
Johanssen agreed.
"If you go to see them about your studies, they know you care," Johansen said.
Battle said that building good relationships with professors would pay off later.
"It's good to have references, and it looks good on resumes," Battle said.

Lawrence businesses gearing up for graduation weekend visitors
By Chad Hale
Special to the Kansan
The Campanile won't be surrounded by the usual students studying or people walking their dogs on May 23.
Thousands of families and friends will be in Lawrence for the commencement ceremonies that day.
Visitors will need a place to stay, restaurant recommendations and things to keep them busy that weekend.
And that is something the businesses of Lawrence look forward to helping visitors with.
"We generally say that about 10,000 to 15,000 people come into town for commencement," said Jennifer Carter, marketing associate for the Lawrence Chamber of Commerce. "They usually stay all weekend, so that means we have people Friday, Saturday and all day Sunday eating at our restaurants and shopping downtown in all of our stores. It has a very good
economic impact for the Lawrence community."
During commencement weekend,
rooms and lodging can be very difficult to find in Lawrence. In fact,
every hotel room was booked months ago with additional room
and cost requirements.
"We have a pretty long waiting list of mostly parents, grandparents and other family members," said Ginger Ray, front desk manager of the Eldridge Hotel. "We require a three-day minimum stay, higher rates and a cancellation policy of no less than 30 days."
Carter said that there were about 1,200 hotel rooms in Lawrence and that the people visiting during commencement weekend filled all those rooms about eight months ago.
This means that many relatives of graduates will have no place to stay and will go to the nearby cities of Topeka and Kansas City for lodging.
In addition, restaurants also can expect a large increase in business
during that weekend.
"We expect to have a lot of large groups in Sunday," said Jim Dallen, general manager of Mass Street Deli, 941 Massachusetts St. "The big trick is to get the customers in and out very quickly, because everyone is in a hurry to get to graduation."
For visitors looking for activities in Lawrence, the Lawrence Visitors Center has many suggestions.
During graduation weekend alone, more than 400 people sign the guest book at the center, located at 402 N. 2nd St. In order to accommodate this large crowd of people, more staff, town maps and informational guides will have to be brought in.
"People come to the Visitors Center looking for information on downtown, museums and the history of the city," said Debby White of the Lawrence Visitors Center. "We do as much as we can to make their stay in Lawrence as enjoyable as possible. We even give tours of the Lawrence community."

Landscaping crews prepare campus
Edge 35 miles of curb, clean 75 acres of parking lots and plant 15.000 flowers across campus.
Facilities Operations puts in overtime getting KU ready
The 27 full-time employees of the Facilities Operations landscaping crew have an extensive to-do list to complete before Commencement May 23, especially considering the crew is short-staffed and the weather has been awful.
By Lori O'Toole Special to the Kansan
Mike Richardson, Facilities Operations director, said employees must manicure 500 of the University of Kansas' 1,058 acres in time for the ceremonies and festivities. They also must care for the University's 900 various species of plants.
"It's an important day in a student's life and it's a culmination of all their hard work here," said Vince Williams, associate director. "We want to make it special for them."
Williams said the extensive preparations also were beneficial for returning alumni.
"It's a really pretty campus and a lot of people know it because of that," Williams said. "It's important to hold it to that level."
Wayne Reusch Jr., physical plant supervisor, said that several years ago, 35 people worked on the crew, eight more than the department now has. With the smaller staff, overtime is required and supervisors such as Reusch temporarily leave their desk jobs to help mow, trim or edge.
The crew will continue trimming shrubs and hedges, sodding.
Reusch has prepared the campus for Commencement each year since he began working for the department 35 years ago. Although he began his supervisor position 15 years ago, he has helped with the landscaping labor each year.
Reusch is not the only supervisor pitching in. Richardson said another department supervisor, Clarence Rayton, helped by edging curbs on Iowa Street.
seeding and replacing plants that did not make it through the winter. On April 19, employees began working nine-hour days, which will eventually increase to 10-hour days, seven days a week.
"It's a monumental task," Richardson said. "It's the busiest they get all year."
Additional tasks include continuously picking up trash, daily maintenance and painting curbs and crosswalks to make them look newer and brighter. Rain and large fluctuations in temperature this spring have made the tasks more difficult.
Things get really hectic during the weeks before Commencement.
"It makes it a little easier knowing people will notice the work and appreciate it." Reusch said.
For example, the crew begins mowing grass on campus twice a week. Reusch said this was a difficult job because it usually takes about 25 people to make a round in one week. Employees also will arrange more than 1,000 flowers and ferns for school ceremonies and the stage for Commencement.
Greg Wade, landscape architect for Design and Construction Management, has helped plan and design the campus' appearance for the past 19 years. Recently, he designed the landscape in front of the Visitor Center, which Richardson said would be important to this year's Commencement.
Two years ago, Wade designed the landscape near the Campanile — one of the most prominent landscape areas for Commencement in addition to Jayhawk Boulevard.
Reusch said Facilities Operations employees were motivated for the large project.
Wade said the colors and blooming plants in the spring helped make the campus attractive. His challenge is to find those plants that look their best for Commencement, a difficult one because late May falls between the spring bloom and the summer peak. Plants that have colorful foliage in the fall are also an important part of the design. Wade also tried to select the most maintenance-free

While working with the Campanile area, similar to previous designers, he attempted to preserve some of the existing landscape character while adding to it. He said this was accomplished by working around the larger trees when he planned for smaller blooming trees to be planted under and near them. Plants such as flowing shrubs, weeping crab apple trees and Hosta, a ground-covering plant, also helped him to maximize the design.
species.
"I think the whole approach to landscaping on campus is important because it conveys unity," Wade said. "We try to make it a beautiful place."
Despite the weeks of hard work and demands, Reusch said the dedication paid off in the end.

Some graduates will remain in Lawrence
Job searches, graduate school and careers keep students in KU region
By John Audlehelm Special to the Kansan
Many seniors have personal reasons for planning to stay in Lawrence after graduation.
Some said they liked the city's college atmosphere and culture, while others said significant others or leases were tying them down.
Catherine Peace, Wichita senior, said that while she planned to attend graduate school, she wanted a break.
"I’m tired of school, and I want to take some time off," she said. "That’s pretty much the long and short of it. I’ll find out what it's like to have a weekend."
In the meantime, Peace said she planned to get a job in Lawrence where she could work with people.
"This is where my life is," she said. "I like this town."
Jed Baughman, Lawrence senior, said his first priority was finding a job, but he would be happy to stay in Lawrence if he received a good offer.
"I don't have a job lined up right yet, but I’m trying to get one in the area," he said. "I’ve
circulated my resume quite thoroughly."
Baughman said Lawrence had maintained a sense of urban culture and was a good place to live.
Warren Bowles, Wasco, Calif., senior, said he planned to find a job in Kansas City and would commute daily from Lawrence.
Although he was not looking forward to the driving time, Bowles said he would enjoy living in Lawrence for the short term.
"I like the whole college atmosphere," he said. "I don't know if I could live in any other city in Kansas."
Thomas Alexander, San Francisco senior,
said his plans to stay in Lawrence were firm.
"I'm not going any place," he said.
Alexander originally moved to Lawrence because the school district could provide the necessary services for his son, who is autistic.
"From a series of serendipitous events I got the opportunity to return to college." Alexander said. He said he planned to be a high school history teacher.
Alexander said he played guitar for the Majestics' Rhythm Revue, a local band that recently opened for the Fabulous Thunderbirds.
A college town also has opportunities for musicians.
Ryan David, Independence senior, said he hoped to get three years' job experience in Lawrence before beginning graduate school.
"Hopefully, I can work in Haworth for a couple years," he said. "There or the Med Center
would be great."
David said he planned to attend graduate school for both an M.D. and a Ph.D.
"Everybody says I'm going to get complacent once I start getting money," he said. "It shouldn't be too hard to get back in the grind."
David said he was looking forward to hanging out with his roommates, who would still be students.
"I'll watch them stress out over tests, while I'm hanging out," he said.
David said he liked this area for permanent residence.
"Lawrence is a good place." he said.
David said he wanted practice medicine in a small town close to both KU basketball and Kansas City.
Kelsey Roberts, Dodge Center, Minn., senior, said she was staying in Lawrence to attend the University of Kansas School of Law.
"I want to get a better understanding of the law before I make a solid decision on what area I choose to go into," she said.
Meredith Dick, St. Louis senior, said she planned to graduate in December but would stay in Lawrence until her lease runs out in August.
After that, it's off to Costa Rica and Spain to teach English.
"I like it here, but it's kind of like my time is up" she said
Most seniors seemed open-minded and optimistic about their futures.
"I'm only 22," Peace said. "I don't have to have it figured out just yet.

Money, cars top graduates' wish lists
By Ashley Bishop Special to the Kansan
Money, cars and rankings rated high on some KU graduating seniors' gift lists.
"I don't really expect anything, but if I were to get something I would want money," said Jessica Wachter, Lawrence senior. "I would ask for this only because after this year I will be cut off from my parents."
Wachter was not the only person who was concerned about money after college.
"I won't be working right out of school," said Anna Bresman, St. Paul, Minn. senior, said. "I don't necessarily have to have money, but something that would create stability, like savings or investments."
Although some students said that they wanted money, Vicii Rogg, assistant vice president of Mercantile Bank, said that she did not notice much change in withdrawals near graduation.
"I do see a lot of kids coming in with checks that they may have received for graduation," she said. "Most of the students who are opening accounts are high school students."
A vacation was another gift that some students said that they wanted for graduation. A lot of students may want a vacation, but one local travel agent said that she doesn't book many trips for students around graduation.
"We do sell some gift certificates, but no one says
specifically that it is for graduation," said Dorothy Pogge, assistant manager at Carlson Waconlit Travel. 800 Massachusetts St.
The one place that does notice more purchasing during graduation is Laird Noller Auto Dealership, 23rd and Louisiana streets.
Marc Hauser, general sales manager for Laird Noller, said, "We do sell a few cars that people say are graduation gifts."
A lot of times big gifts such as money, trips and cars come from family members or close friends of the family. Many seniors already knew what they would receive from those people.
Some people, thought want to get graduates something instead of money.
"I have a hard time wanting to hand over a kid in his or her 20s a check," said Jerry Waugh, women's golf coach.
If people don't want to give money, what will they be giving?
"We sell a lot of KU charms around graduation time," said Diane Hildibird, sales clerk at Kizer-Cummings Jewelers, 833 Massachusetts St. "They can range anywhere from $28 to $80. Sometimes people will purchase chains to go with the charms."

Some graduates also are getting gifts for their friends who are graduating.

Julie Kearney, Kansas City, Kan. senior, said, "I want to give my friends gifts that are filled with memories of the last four years."
Some seniors plan to make scrap books, picture frames or give personalized stationery. But not all seniors are giving each other things for graduation.
Heather Gann, Kansas City, Kan., senior, said she and her friends couldn't afford to buy each other gifts.

Living situation up in the air for some graduates
By Katie Holman Special to the Kansas
When the graduation parties have come and gone, the new University of Kansas alumni will be leaving for new destinations.
Kevin O'Rourke, Frontenac senior, is one student unsure of his future living arrangements.
However, many students do not know where they will be living after commencement.
Laura Thornhill, Mission Hills senior, shares O'Rourke's uncertainty.
"If I don't get into grad school, I'll just go where the wind takes me," he said. "It's up in the air right now."
"I'm not sure where I'll be in law school just yet," she said. "If I'm here, I'll stay."
until summer ends.
Rob Dyson, Olathe senior, at least knows where he will be living for the summer. He lives in a Lawrence townhouse with three roommates and will remain there
"After that I don't know, but I hope to go somewhere else," he said.
Dyson will receive a degree in athletic training and is looking for a job. He said that there were clinics around the country that would hire athletic trainers for high school and college teams.
Dyson likes the prospect of moving, but he is anxious about starting over.
"I'm not someone who can start out with a whole new life," he said.
He said he had friends in California who might be able to connect him with a job.
"I'd be there in a heartbeat," he said.
Kelly Jo Karnes, Lawrence graduate student, will graduate with her master's degree in higher education administration. She has a different living situation than most seniors. Karnes is the assistant complex director of Gertrude
Sellards Pearson—Corbin Hall.
Karnes is also looking forward to a change of scenery. She spent spring break interviewing for positions at universities from California to New York but would like to get a job somewhere on the East Coast.
"I'm probably looking to get out of Kansas," she said.
She said that if she got a residential position similar to the one she holds now that she would be required to live in the building but that she also interviewed for greek advising positions. If Karnes receives a position as a greek adviser, she will live by herself.
"I'm kind of set in my ways," she said.
Karnes is one of a few seniors who live in University housing.
Fred McEhlenie, associate director of department of student housing, said that 262 seniors lived in University housing, out of 4,571 students.
University housing consists of residence halls, scholarship halls, Jayhawker Towers and Stouffer Place.
"There is a lot of retention in the scholarship halls," he said.
The scholarship halls are home to 450 students,77 of which are seniors.
Some students are certain of their future living plans. Kris Zentmire, Overland Park senior, is engaged and getting married after graduation.
She and her fiancé, an electrical engineer and KU graduate, recently bought a house in Gardner.
"We figured the land's cheaper there," she said. "We looked in Olathe, but everything was so expensive."
Zentmire and her fiance have a better idea of future living than other students. Many seniors said that everything depended on their future jobs, another gray area in their post-graduation plans.

KU career services give students a leg up
By Camille McGinnis Special to the Kansan
As seniors walk down Campanile Hill for commencement, they will leave their roles as students behind and take on new roles as professionals.
Some students know what direction they are going and do not need assistance getting jobs.
Zach Martin, Beatrice, Neb., senior, is one of them.
"I didn't need any of the career centers since I knew I wanted to go to graduate school," said Martin, who plans to get his master's degree and teach at a high school.
There is help for those who do not know what direction to go. Career centers such as the University Career Employment Services and Business and Engineering Career Services Center can assist with the career search.
While UCES works specifically with liberal arts, fine arts, social welfare and education students, all students are encouraged to utilize the services. UCES recommends that students start thinking about starting the job search six months before graduation.
"One of the things the office is really concerned with is overall career development," said Wayne F. Stark, UCES assistant director.
Stark said he believed that career development began in the freshman year. Beginning the process early will aid in finding internships and student employment that can lead to jobs after graduation.
Academic or career counseling is complimentary at UCES, but there is a $25 registration fee. This allows students to participate in on-campus interviews. Students also can use the resume referral system for one year after paying the fee. Students can
load their resumes into the database for recruiters to see. The system also allows students to sign up for interviews on the Internet.
Paying the registration fee is beneficial because it opens the doors to many opportunities.
"We have plenty of recruiters from Fortune 400 companies who come in here to recruit students," Stark said.
The Business Career Services Center encourages students to register and pay the $75 fee before the career fair in September.
"The main push for recruiting is in October and November," said Lisa Leroux-Smith, director of Business and Engineering Career Services.
The Engineering Career Services Center charges a one-time fee of $25. This allows seniors to participate in on-campus interviews and put their resumes on the Internet.
Kerri Millburne, recruiting coordinator of Engineering Career Services, said recruiting took twice a year. Fall recruiting takes place from Oct. 1 through Thanksgiving. Spring recruiting is Feb. 1 to April 1.
Patricia Noland, career development coordinator of the Journalism Career Center, suggested that students begin thinking about jobs in January.
"It is a good time for students to get their resumes in shape." Noland said.
At UCES, students start the process with career counseling, which is followed by doing a resume and cover letter. At that point, the student can decide whether to register or not.
Students can improve their interview skills with a mock interview, another UCES service. This is where students can do an interview similar to the real thing in front of a video camera. The tape is then played back so students can see their
strengths and weaknesses.
Education seniors can attend the teacher-interview days sponsored by UCES twice a year. The first one, "Early Bird" teacher interview day was in February.
Stark said, "We invite eight to 10 of the largest districts like North Kansas City. Olathe and Blue Valley to recruit education students early."
On April 8, a teacher-interview day was at the Kansas Union. About 120 school districts from around the country attended the interview day to recruit students for jobs.
Besides counseling and providing on campus interviews, UCES has workshops every semester that cover internships, experimental education and using the Internet to job search and interviewing strategies.

KU seniors prepare to leave college living communities
By Warisa Chulindra Special to the Kansan
Graduation is marked by change. For some seniors, this means leaving the comfort and familiarity of organized living.
Whether it is a residence hall, scholarship hall, fraternity house or sorority house, graduating seniors are in their last weeks of being part of a special community.
While it is uncommon for seniors to live on campus, those who choose to remain do so because of the sense of community and their involvement in that community.
Jessica Perkins, Burnsville, Minn., senior, has lived in University residence halls for four years. She said she would remember four years of fire alarms and the experience of living in a community of 950 people.
"When I had a question about anything, there was always someone who knew the answer," she said.
Perkins lived in Ellsworth Hall her first two years at the University of Kansas and has lived in McCollum Hall for the past two years.
As a freshman, she was a floor representative for her hall. When she was a sophomore, she worked as a desk assistant and security monitor and was publicity chain for Ellsworth Hall and the Association of University Residence Halls.
Perkins has served as vice president of programming for AURH for the past two years.
"Living in the residence halls is the best-kept secret," Perkins said.
Brandon LaBarge, Overland Park senior, said it was his involvement in the scholarship halls that kept him at the University for four years. He has been active in his hall government and All Scholarship Hall Council.
"I also have a really good group of friends here," he said.
Dinner banquets are a common way for living organizations to recognize its seniors. Awards are given out, and seniors are usually given the opportunities to speak.
"Living in the residence halls is the best-kept secret."
Jessica Perkins
senior
In the scholarship halls, each individual hall honors its seniors at dinners.
At Douthall Hall, seniors receive gifts at the Farewell Banquet, which is held at the Ekdahl Dining Commons banquet room. Seniors submit ideas for gifts they would like to receive.
Cheryl Hill, St. George senior and fourth-year resident, asked for kitchen appliances and a vegetarian cookbook that the hall frequently uses.
"I asked for kitchen appliances, because I don't own any and it's something that I need," Hill said. "I asked for the cookbook because it will remind me of Douthart."
This will be the first year that the Sigma Nu fraternity has a dinner planned by the seniors' mothers.
"The moms are planning the menu." Chuck Henderson, Overland Park senior, said. "Our moms are all friends, and they wanted to do one last get-together. Hopefully, this will start a tradition around here."
The Chi Omega sorority has a formal dance and a dinner honoring their seniors at the end of the year. Out of the 152 members this year, 39 are seniors. For the formal, the seniors put together a slide show and share their favorite memories.
"We kind of try to embarrass each other," said Sarah Lamberton, Tulsa, Okla., senior. "The underclassman finds it amusing."
A committee of underclassmen plans the dinner. One of the members' favorite meals is prepared. Seniors talk about their plans after graduation and are granted alumna status.
After the dinner, everyone gathers around the Chi Omega fountain. The seniors release cardinal
and straw balloons, the colors of the sorority, into the sky. Then they make a wish and toss a penny over their shoulders into the fountain.
"I wouldn't have traded this experience for anything." Lamberton said. "I've gotten to know a diversity of people in the house."
Some sororities and fraternities informally plan senior trips, particularly during spring break. Delta Delta Delta went to Las Vegas for a weekend in January. Chi Omega and Sigma Nu went to Jamaica during spring break.
Because not all the seniors choose to live in the sorority house, the trip gave them the opportunity to spend time with each other, said Kelly Oakleaf, Overland Park senior and member of Delta Delta Delta.
Each sorority has its own activities, spanning from videos and dinners to senior trips, said Taylor Gill, Wichita junior and Panhellenic Association vice president for recruitment.
The residence halls do not have a dinner for its seniors, but Perkins has been working with the Department of Student Housing in hopes of establishing a tradition for seniors who live on-campus.
Seniors who have been active with the department for four years, either as a desk assistant, security monitor, or serving on hall government in their residence or scholarship hall, will receive crimson and blue cords to wear at commencement.
"It's designed to recognize people who have worked hard in housing." Perkins said.
Some seniors said they would miss being part of a living organization but look forward to the new experience that awaits them.
I'm excited," Henderson said. "I've never lived in an apartment on my own. It'll be good to get out of organized living. I enjoyed living in the house, but it'll be nice to have a change of pace."
Lawson said he would be sad but that he was ready to move on.
"If you're good enough friends, you'll keep in touch," he said.
