2B Quick Looks Wednesday November 4,1998 HOROSCOPES Today's Birthday (Nov. 4). You may feel stopped this year, but that is just a test. It is to see how much you can persevere. By working with the person who is giving you the most trouble, you will make the greatest gains. You can also build a foundation that will support you for years to come. Aries (March 21-April 19): Today is a 5. The work is available if you are willing to do it. This opportunity could make financial security possible. The price is your full enthusiasm as well as your full belief in yourself. You want to be successful? Well, you can. Let the others know you will do what it takes. Taurus (April 20-May 20): Today is an 8. You have got a tough choice to make today. You need to do what is best for your home and for the plans you have made. Money is a consideration too, of course, but not as important as your quality of living. You have permission to spend a little more so you can get something really nice. Gemini (May 21-June 21): Today is a 6. You have a way of weaving in and around the status quo and shaking things up a bit. Your ideas are a little radical and a little daring, but basically you are after the same objective as everybody else. Make sure they listen to what you say and they will make sure you get what you need. Cancer (June 22-July 22): Today is an 8. Cancer (June 22-July 22): Today is an 8. The holiday season is approaching, but somebody you know may have to go off in another direction once the family parties get started. You know who this is. Get together this weekend before the other festivities set in. Start with a call today, just to say hello and establish a new connection Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Today is a 5. Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Today is a 5. You could get the funding you need through the help of an older person. The problem is getting it routed into your own pocket so you can spend it on something you already said you would buy. It is a little nerve-wracking, but do not worry. Virao (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Today is an 8. Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): today is an 8. Do not worry about a move you are planning.

Libra (sep. 23-05. 29) Tues. 10:30 Looks like a friend is under a bit of pressure, running into obstacles every time he or she turns around. You can help this situation, if only by providing a shoulder to cry on. You can see everything a little more objectively, since you are not under the same amount of pressure. Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Today is a 6. The person you find most irritating today is also your most valuable coach. Try not to overpower one who is attempting to steer you in the right direction, otherwise you could get in trouble. Fortunately, your friends will tip you off before that happens, if you are wise enough to listen. Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Today is a 6. Your thoughts are on the horizon, but your body is stuck here, doing some job you wish you could delegate. That is OK. You can actually make this voyage happen. Where would you like to go? Tachit in the spring? Why not? Get started planning now. This is an excellent day to make decisions. Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Today is an 8. Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Today is an B. If you concentrate on a goal you want to accomplish, the petty squabbles today will not be distracting. Counsel your sweetheart to do the same.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Today is a 5. You are going to get farther working with a partner today than you would on your own. You can figure out a way to convince your opponents that your idea has merit. That is where the partnership idea comes in. So, do not be the Lone Ranger. Get somebody else on your side. Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Today is a 7. You want to be going places, doing things, having adventures, especially if you are in love. Romance is beckoning right now, and it is hard to keep your mind on anything else. There is good news. This weekend is going to be magnificent for a romantic excursion. Start planning one now, even if you can not go quite yet. The Kansas men's tennis team lost to Oklahoma 4-1 in the finals of the ITA Region V Indoor Team tournament Sundav. Men's tennis team falls to Oklahoma in tourney SPORTS BRIEFS AND SCORES Kansas beat Nebraska 4-2 in the "We didn't play as well as we could have, but we were very close to winning the tournament," coach Mark Riley said.

KANSAS TENNIS Note: Horoscopes have no basis in scientific fact and should be read for entertainment purposes only. The tournament was the last one of the fall. Kansan staff report Umpire great decides to retire from majors WATERLOO, Iowa — Don Dinkinger, whose call at first base helped the 1985 World Series, is retiring as a major league umpire. An ailing right knee has forced Denkinger to leave after nearly 40 seasons. His retirement takes effect Dec. 31, but he will stay involved in the game as a supervisor and an evaluator of major and minor-league umpires "I'll be doing some teaching, some scouting, some evaluating," Denkinger, 62, said. "I'll be looking for new prospects and working with some umpires the American League already has an option on." In the sixth game of the 1985 World Series between Kansas City and St. Louis, Denkinger called the Royals' Jorge Ortea on a close play at first. The call helped Kansas City win that game to tie the Series 3-3 and the Royals went on to win Game No. 7, when Denkinger worked the plate and ejected Cardinals manager Whitey Her zog and pitcher Joaquin Andujar. Oilers' first head coach dies with career record HOUSTON — Lou Rymuk, the first head coach of the Houston Oilers who still holds the 39-year-old franchise's best career record, has died. He was 78. Rymuk's success didn't protect him for long. Rymuk was fired after the Oliers lost three of their first five games in 1961. "Lou will always be an important part of our history," said Bud Adams, the Oliers' founder who hired and fired Rymkus. The son of a coal miner, Rymkus grew up in Chicago and was a star offensive tackle at Notre Dame. He played one NFL season with Washington before World War II, then played for the Cleveland Browns after serving as a Marine. "Our thoughts and prayers go out to his family." He played six seasons for the Browns, playing on both sides of the ball. Coach Paul Brown once called him the "best pass protector I've ever seen." Rymkus earned a Super Bowl ring in 1971 when he coached the Baltimore Colts' offensive line to victory against the Dallas Cowboys. Rymkus died Saturday after a lengthy illness. His funeral is today in San Felipe, Texas.
