HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (Sept. 8).
Complete a romantic relationship this year, and a new one could emerge. It might even be with the same person Say what's on your heart in September. Put in for a promotion in October. Plans may go away in December. By January you should be sure where you want to be. The money's available in February if you use your imagination. Play by the rules to gain abundance in June. Accept rather confrontational coaching in August.
Aries (March 21-April 19) — Today is a 6
A secret partner could be handy. Don't talk much in public but do get a message accross. By working through a mutual friend, you'll accomplish your mission. You generally lead the charge, but keep a low profile today instead.
Taurus (April 20-May 20) — Today is an 8
A project you've worked on for quite some time could pay off. You've done it so long, it could almost be a habit by now. This is good because more work may be required soon. You'll get it finished in no time at all.
Gemini [May 21-June 21] — Today is a 6
Gemini (May 21-June 21) — Today is a 6
Although you're charming, your energy level's not
high. You may feel like you're struggling against
overwhelming odds. Don't despair. Finish something
you've started. Completion is energizing. Conditions
will change by tomorrow.
Cancer (June 22-July 22) --- Today is a 7
A compromise you work out with a partner might feel more like a capitulation. You might not get your first option, but don't give up. If you hold out for what's important, you could win after all.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) — Today is a 6
If you're trudging away at a difficult chore, you may feel like you're getting nowhere. That's not the case, however. You're gaining experience, and that's valuable. Study, too, even if some of what you're learning doesn't make much sense. It will.
Virao (Aua. 23.Sept. 22) — Today is a 7
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) — Today is a 7
The most difficult topic has probably already been addressed. You've said your piece. Finish your job and accept your reward, which might be more than you expected, because of a high-ranking person's favorable impression of you. Accolades count, of course.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) — Today is a 7
You've made your point. Now wait and watch. A person you thought you'd never convince might have a change of heart. Stranger things have happened. Don't mention it again, though. Let him or her save face.
Your formula for success should work pretty well. A good friend's a big help. Something your learning seems to give you is an advantage. Something you're doing privately, however, could bring you the greatest reward.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) — Today is a 6 Money's not short, although your pockets may seem too empty. Don't worry. You'll have everything you need. A conversation with a friend will help you understand another person better, and that's valuable.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — Today is an 8
Caprithon (nee. J2-22 Jan, 1971) Today is the danger's passed, and you should have smooth sailing. That should be true for projects you begin now, too. A lucky break could open up a new possibility. Use it to increase your influence and authority; watch for it.
Aquarius Jan. 20-Feb. 18 — Today is a 6
Worries could make even the simplest tasks seem
complex. If you're avoiding something, do that first.
You'll be amazed at how much more energy you
have after that's checked on your list.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) — Today is an 8
lscises (Feb. 19-March 20) — Today is an 8
an insider tip could lead to an excellent bargain.
If you've done research, you'll know a good deal
when you find it. Be ready to move quickly. Take
action now through the weekend to get what you
want for, your home.

Nebraska team waning with four players gone
BASKETBALL
Forfitting a season opener is not the
way an env队 wants to start its season.
The Nebraska men's basketball team may have to do just that if many more players get suspended.
Barry Collier was hired in March, following the firing of Danny Nee. Since Collier's hiring, the number of players who will be suspended or kicked off the team has grown to four.
Collier announced Wednesday that Danny Walker, senior guard, had been kicked off the team. He cited a violation of team rules as the reason for the dismissal.
"Establishing discipline in our program is a short-term cost for long-
term gain," Collier said.
Also announced Wednesday was the three-game suspension of Rodney Fields, senior guard. His suspension stems from a violation of team rules as well.
Originally, Fields and Cany Cochran, junior guard, had been suspended by the NCAA for accepting money in return for their work at Nee's basketball camp before they were enrolled at the university. The NCAA Student-Athlete Reinstatement Committee decided to reinstate both players, though, as long as each donated the money they received to the charity of their choice.
Other suspensions are of Kimani Friend, senior center, and John Robinson, Jr., junior guard, also for a violation of team rules. Both are suspended for three games, which include both exhibition games and the season opener against Oral Roberts on Saturday, Nov. 18.

NFL FOOTBALL
Chiefs' game simulcast focused on new record
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — More than an AFC West victory will be at stake when the Seattle Seahawks play the Kansas City Chiefs at Arrowhead Stadium Stadium, Oct. 2.
Under a one-time arrangement sanctioned by the NFL, the ABC broadcast will be simulcast across the parking lot at Kauffman Stadium — home of the Kansas City Royals — as the Chiefs seek to break the all-time, on-site record for paid attendance in the regular season. Chiefs owner Lamar Hunt said yesterday.
The current record as listed by the NFL is 90,833, set in 1958 when the Chicago Bears played the Rams at the Los Angeles Coliseum, according to the Chiefs.
Tickets for the simulcast went on sale yesterday.

New coaches,young runners anticipate strong first meet

Kansas sportswriter
The wait for competition will finally end tomorrow for the Kansas men's and women's cross country teams.
The Jayhawks will play host to Wichita State, Oklahoma and
Timmons Invitational tomorrow morning at Rim Rock Farm near Lawrence.
The Invitational is Kansas' only home meet of the season, and first-year coach Stanley Redwine said he thought
tomorrow was a great way to start the 2000 campaign.
"It's going to be a small meet, but it will be a quality meet," he said. "For the purpose of this meet, which is to get us ready for the year, this meet will do fine. All of the teams will get to see where they are."
Redwine said he was excited to see his squad in competition for the first time and noted that although there had been strong performers in practice, he was
reluctant to predict who would perform well.
"I'm really just looking for a strong team effort," he said. "I don't want to point anyone out yet, but we have a pretty good idea who can place high for us."
Senior Charlie Gruber and juniors Brent Behrens and Pete Prince lead a young men's squad
that has high expectations for this season. Prince said this season had been a new start, with a new coaching staff and new conditioning.
"I feel like the team is really coming along," he said. "I feel like I'm
in way better shape than I was this time last year, and I think it's the same for the whole team."
No seniors will run for the women's team, and many newcomers will have a chance to shine this season.
Redwine said he knew that this meet was key, especially for the women, because getting the first-race experience out of the way was very important.
Sophomore Eve Lamborn said she thought the new coaching staff
"I feel like the team is really coming along. I feel like I'm in way better shape than I was this time last year,and I think it's the same for the whole team."
Pete Prince
junior
had given the team hope for a great season.
"They are really concerned with detail-oriented things," she said. "They want to make everybody out there better, and I know that has really helped my confidence going into this year."
Tomorrow's meet will begin with the women's race at 10 a.m. and will be followed immediately by the men's race at 11 a.m.
