HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (Sept. 22).
Mind your manners to advance this year. Once you've learned the routine by heart, you can relax. You're looking good in October, but maybe too good. A dumpy older person could get jealous. Be nice and keep your job. Learn a new trick in December and renew an old love in February. Take care if you travel in June; little later is better. A wise crack could cost you a lot in July. Another's criticism spurs you to action in August.
To get the advantage, check the day's rating: 10 is the easiest day, O the most challenging.
Aries (March 21-April 19) — Today is a 6.
Aries (March 21-April 19) — Today is a 6.
Your workload should get easier soon, but it may not be until early next week. In the meantime, take care of last-minute business. Delegate chores to a person you trust, and then check to make sure they're done on time.
Taurus (April 20-May 20) — Today is a 7.
You were clicking along pretty well, but now you could run into new problems. These are different than any you've seen before. That means you're in unfamiliar territory. This is part of the great adventure your life has become, right? Enjoy!
Gemini (May 21-June 21) — Today is a 6.
Financial planning has never been more important. Unfortunately, you'd rather play with your sweetheart or kids. Odds are good you'll be even less interested in balancing your checkbook tomorrow.
Cancer (June 22-July 22) — Today is a 6.
A household project will take more of your time and mental energy the next few weeks. Right now it may look overwhelming. Break the job into smaller parts. Take them one at a time and you'll be done before you know it.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) — Today is a 7.
You're getting luckier — and smarter, too. Use that extra brainpower and check a tedious assignment off your list. You've avoided it because it seemed too hard. It's still difficult, but it's no longer impossible.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sep. 22) — Today is a 6.
Virgin Bay 29. September 23 — Today is a day you could do well financially over the next few weeks.
Don't spend the money before you get it, though. If you gather up resources for awhile, you'll get far ahead. It's much easier to stay ahead once that happens.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) — Today is a 6.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) — Today is a 6.
You will probably have to explain what's been going on lately. If you know, that won't be a problem. If you don't, maybe you'd better find out. Do well on this test and you could be given more responsibility. You can handle it.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) — Today is a 6.
Sure enough, something goes wrong, but you have an alternative plan ready. You don't! Well, better get on that project right away. You don't have to let anybody know how you knew, either. It'll be our little secret.
Sagittarius (Nov, 22-Dec. 21) — Today is a 7.
A get-together with friends should be fun, but don't spend your life savings on it. Money is most likely to spark controversy. Listen, learn and then teach what you've discovered through experience.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) --- Today is a 5.
Slow and easy does it. If you and a partner join forces, you'll overcome a new difficulty with ease and grace. If the two of you argue, you could lose the whole shooting match. Go against a common foe and forget your petty differences.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) — Today is an 8.
Your thoughts may be far away, but try to keep them remeled in. If you make a silly mistake, you'll have to stay late to fix it. That could mess up other plans, so pay attention. If it's possible to have spring fever in autumn, you've got it — take care.
**pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)** — Today is a 7.
You and your partner have been talking for days, and not always agreeing. This has not been easy, but it's just about over. You should be able to compromise soon, and you ought to do that. You'll want to get into the action part of the project this weekend.
KANSAS BASKETBALL
Kansas looks to recruit two California players
After failing to land forward Alan Anderson last weekend, Kansas will attempt to get another top recruit this weekend.
Kansas and Kentucky are the only two schools to offer him scholarships so far, and Hayes' father, Charles Hayes, said his son had been very impressed by Kentucky.
Chuck Hayes, a 6-foot-6 forward from Modesto, Calif., will make his official visit to Kansas today through Sunday. Hayes also is considering Kentucky, Texas-E Paso, St. Louis University, and Peppardine.
Notes: Horoscopes have no basis in scientific fact and should be read for entertainment purposes only.
Hayes has taken UCLA off of his list after the Bruins appeared to stop recruiting him.
"It wasn't that we really dropped them," the elder Hayes told Tracy Pierson of Pac-West Hoops. "They called us and said they were going with other players."
Kansas remains in the chase for another California recruit, as well.
Josh Childress, a 6-4 forward from Lakewood, Calif., said he was down to three schools — Kansas, Stanford and Arizona. He will visit Stanford on Saturday, Sept. 30; Kansas on Friday, Oct. 13, for Late Night with Roy Williams and Arizona at the end of October.
"I really like all three head coaches," Childress told Mike Sullivan of Insider's Report. "That's why they are on my list. I'll see how the visits go and how the players are."

"I expect us to play extremely hard because we have practiced extremely hard," Nwachakwu said. "The guys seem very focused and prepared for this trip, and I am confident in the opportunity we have to do well."

The Ellsworth Medallion is reserved for people who follow the example set by executive secretary of the Alumni Association Fred Ellsworth, but neither of tomorrow's recipients think they did anything special to deserve it.
Kansas football legend Gil Reich and four-time NCAA Championship track coach Robert Timmons will receive the medallion today. Both said they were surprised to be chosen as recipients.
Reich and Timmons said they were doing something that came naturally: Giving back to the institution that had given them so much.
"To say the least I was very flattered and humbled," Reich said.
Reich, whose name remains atop the north stands in Memorial Stadium, graduated from the University of Kansas in 1954. He has worked with the Alumni
Association for the past 12 years, and plans to do so through 2001.
Reich has helped the association retain and add membership, especially in the Kansas City metro area.
"They were able to get the Kansas City alumni chapter more involved," he said.
Reich was added to the latter team in an unusual way. While sitting in the stands recovering from a broken hand, Forrest "Phog" Allen approached him and asked him how his hand felt. After hearing Reich's response, Allen asked him if he would like to suit up and play.
"I'm the only player in the history of Kansas to play a varsity basketball game without going to a practice," Reich said.
Timmons has also had a long-standing relationship with the University. He was the track coach for 24 years
"I'm the only player in the history of Kansas to play a varsity basketball game with out going to a practice." Gil Reich 1954 KU graduate
before retiring in 1988.
Timmons won countless indoor, outdoor and cross country championships to go along with his four NCAA championships.
The accomplishment of which he seemed most proud was the cross country facility he built on his Rim Rock Farm.
Timmons said the course was originally used for only small dual meets but came into its own when the 1998 Division I and II cross country championships were ran there. He said he hoped the championships would return to his course in 2003.
