Underdog Salukis take businesslike approach

No pep talks or "win one for the Gipper" speeches will be heard in the Southern Illinois locker room before tomorrow's football game.
Dorr is concerned almost as much about the Kansas offense as he is the Jawhawk defense.
The Salukis are a businesslike team that head coach Ray Dorr says he hopes has covered every possible Kansas play situation during practice. He also says he hopes his team is not overwhelmed when it plays the Jawhacks.

"We plan to score early and take them out of the game early," Kansas senior center Paul Oswald said yesterday. "If we have the confidence, then we can beat them."
"The Kansas offense is ready to explode," he said. "They have come so close to making the big plays. I think they have an offense capable of scoring 50 or 60 points. That has me concerned."
And, Dorr added, "Unfortunately I think the Kansas defense will be able to stop our option plains."
Going for the quick kill is Kansas' strategy for eliminating the competition.
"We have not faced a team with the overall speed of a Kansas队," Dorr said. "I'm also afraid that mentally we may not be as sharp as we were. We may make mistakes and we can't afford to give the Jayhawks any leeway whatsoever."
Dorr said he did not see his Southern Illinois team dominating the game in any aspect of play. It has good size for its level of competition, but the coach of the Division I-AA school said the lower division's competition was not comparable to what Virginia does.

"Building an offense is like building a house." Valesente said. "You add a little to it each time. Hopefully, when you're through you have a nice home."

their performance hasn't been what I expected."
Dorr said both team's offenses acted like equalizers to each other. Kansas relies on the forward pass while Southern Illinois lacks a passing game, so it emphasizes a running offense.

Octubafest emphasizes overlooked instrument
By NANCY BARRE Staff writer
Tubas and tubists, not sauerkraut and beer, are the main attraction at KU's fourth-annual Octubafest.
Octubestaft, sponsored by the department of music, started last night in Swarthout Recital Hall with a tuba and piano duet by Barbara and Jerry Young of Eau Claire, Wis.
Octubestab will continue tonight with a recital by Skip Gray, associate director of the School of Music at the University of Kentucky and principal tubist with the Lexington Symphony, at 8 p.m. in the recital hall. The recital is free and open to the public.
The festival will culminate tomorrow when more than a hundred tubstubs from area high schools and colleges will perform a special halftime show at the University of Kansas-Southern Illinois University football game in Memorial Stadium.
Scott Watson, assistant professor of music, brought the idea of having an Octubafest to KU three years ago after he had heard about a similar event at Indiana University.
The tubists will play a special arrangement of "I'm a dayhawk" which was recently arranged by the music department (for the festival and a KU graduate).
"It's an annual celebration of the tuba." Watson said. "I admit that the name, Octubafest, is a bad name. Octubafest — it piques people's interest."
Octubafest not only helps
enengtent the public on the art of tuba playing, he said, it also gives tuba players a chance to meet other players.
"Part of the Octubafest is serious," Watson said, "like the recitals and the clinics.
"But part of it is fun, like the halftime show. It's a payoff for all the hard work."
Watson said Octubafest also helped recruit high school tuba players to KU's music program
'Part of the Ocubafest is serious, like the recitals and the clinics.

"It gets them on campus and gives them a chance to meet our faculty," he said.
Watson, who is the only tuba instructor at KU, has 13 students. He said the tuba wasn't a particularly popular instrument to study.
"There just isn't a high demand for tubists," he said. "Orchestras usually only have one tuba player compared to 45 or 50 violins."
"There's only 85 tuba and euphonium university teaching jobs across the country," he said.
Since performance jobs for all professional tubists are hard to find, many tubists take teaching positions, he said.
But even teaching positions are rare,he said.
Paintings depict simplicity
By NANCY BARRE Staff writer
A symposium on Japanese painting at 1 p.m. Sunday in the Spencer Museum of Art will mark the opening of the museum's new exhibit "Japanese Quest for a New Vision: The Impact of Visiting Chinese Painters 1600-1900."
The 52-painting exhibit, which will be exhibited in the White Gallery through Dec. 21, is composed exclusively from the collection of Mitchell Hutchinson, a retired insurance agent from Honolulu.
Hutchinson has already donated four of the paintings to the museum's permanent collection, and eventually plans to give the remainder of the paintings to KU, said Pat Fister, the museum's curator of Oriental Art.
The paintings are all of the Nanga tradition. Nanga is the Japanese word for the Japanese school of painters who were influenced by Chinese literati paintings beginning in the 17th century, Fister said.
Laterati paintings originated in China during the 14th century. They were simple, scholarly paintings, which were usually done in ink and lacked bright colors. Fister said they were a reaction against the brightly colored decorative paintings of the day.
"Literati paintings weren't meant to be decorative so much as they were a form of personal expression," she said.
Since in earlier centuries the Japanese were customarily refused permission to leave their country, they traditionally relied on the influence of foreign cultures for new ideas in art, Fister said.
Although most of the Japanese Nanga painters never visited China, she said, many of the paintings depict Chinese images because the
artists modeled their work after the work of visiting Chinese literati painters.
The painting is a tall, narrow landscape that features little peasant cottages nestled in a steep river valley. I fu-chu wrote a verse on the painting in honor of a monk, and then presented the painting to the monk.
Mount T'ient-t'ai, an 18th century painting by I Fu chu, an English merchant, is the most prominent painting in the collection. Fister said it was a perfect example of how one painting could influence other painters.
Tien-tai is unusual because ten letters are attached to it. Fisker said. The letters are from ten succeeding owners of the painting, beginning with the owner who immediately succeeded the monk. All of the letters explain why Tien-tai is such a valuable painting and how the author of the letter was influenced by Tien-tai.
"It's generally accepted that some painters influence others," Fister said. "But this one is special because the letters prove to us that it had a great influence. It's not just speculation."
"The study of the influence of one culture upon another provides one of the most fascinating areas of art history," said Stephen Addiss, chairman of the art history department and one of the organizers of the exhibit.
"It's still a very current question about how to absorb one culture, and yet make it your own," he said. "Look at Japan today. It's been influenced by a lot of countries, including China and the United States. They have McDonalds, but they've still retained their own culture."
Addiss said he thought the exhibit was particularly good because it was well focused and had a central theme.
Fister said KU graduate students had been studying the collection for the past three years while the paintings were being stored at the
Addiss has conducted two graduate seminars on the paintings, he said. The students who participated in the seminars helped him to prepare the catalogue for the exhibit.
"I think it's been fun for the students because their work was printed in the catalogue. It wasn't just stuck in a drawer somewhere," he said.
Hutchinson said he was donating the paintings to the museum because he thought KU had one of the finest art history departments in the country.

After the Spencer exhibition, the collection will be displayed at the University of Chicago, Arizona State University, the Honolulu Art Academy, and the St. Louis Art Museum before returning to Lawrence.
The symposium on Sunday will feature Paul Berry, University of Michigan, discussing the Chinese artists who visited Japan; Melinda Takeuchi, Stanford University, speaking on the transformation of Chinese literati painting into the Japanese mode; Juliann Wolgram, University of Kansas, speaking on the influence of I Fu-chiu on Japanese artists, and a gallery talk on the exhibition by Fisker.
"Stephen is about the only one in the country that has the expertise to deal with it well." Hutchinson said.
