HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday
You're under pressure from work and under criticism from a partner, but don't worry. You're being forced to get your act together. Choose a talent to develop in September. Change your home base in December. Share your dreams, and watch love grow through January. Accept a new assignment in February. Let another support you in March, and by May, you'll know what to do next.
Aries: Today is a 6.
Something you're learning now will be useful later. It's upsetting your routine today, but it's necessary. You need to know what's going on before you head off in the wrong direction. You don't have to spend much time at it.
Taurus: Today is a 6.
Wrap up old business today, but be cautious about starting new projects. You're more apt to find what you want at a good price then. Put your finances in order this evening. It's important to know what you've got, so you know how much you can spend.
Gemini: Today is a 4.
The sun is in Virgo, and Virgo and Gemini are squared to each other. You teach them to be more spontaneous; they teach you to be better organized. You teach them to try new things; they teach you to establish routines that work. The combination produces great results, so relax.
Cancer: Today is a 6.
Conditions are unsettled today. Somebody wants some things from you, but it's not clear what. Unfortunately, this person is getting worked into a frenzy. Hopefully, you can figure out what's required quickly. Calm everybody down. Cookies and milk might do the trick.
Leo: Today is a 6.
You'll have more time for playing with friends today.
Talk to them about what's been going on, but don't give them all the details. Hold your cards close to the vest. Be friendly, but don't let everybody know what you're up to.
Virgo: Today is a 5.
Recent changes are causing unrest. People aren't sure what they should be doing, and they're not doing much of anything. An older person seems to be learning on you. You might think he or she is asking too much, and that could be true. Rise to the challenge. You're much more capable than you think.
Libra: Today is a 6.
The moon has gone into Gemini, making it a little easier for you to check things off your lists. You're able to communicate better than normal, and today that's important. There are some misunderstandings. You're one of the people whose job it is to clear those up, and today you'll be busy.
Scorpio; Today is a 5.
The sun's s in Virgo, and the moon's in Gemini. It's a com-
bination that often causes change. This is your努府-
nity to push things in the direction you want. If you don't
have enough resources, ask for what you need.
Conditions are in a state of flux. You might even slip something through that previously was rejected. There's a lot of controversy going on, and everybody's in the mood to argue. But your chances for success are good.
Sagittarius: Today is a 5.
Capricorn: Today is a 6.
You're working hard, but you aren't seeing results. The job is more complicated than you expected, but don't get stressed. Just keep plugging away. Be willing to make modifications in your original plans.
Aaarius: Today is a 5.
In some ways, you're feeling better. In other ways, you're running into more problems. Together, you will solve more-complicated puzzles than you could by yourself. Avoid an argument. Gather more information. You can make the big decision next week.
Pisces: Today is a 5.
You finished your rough outline yesterday, or you should have. If not, do that first. There will still be changes to make before you get the whole process to run smoothly, but that's OK. If you anticipate the glitches, you won't be upset when they happen. Think of yourself as a bug collector.
Basketball prospect picks Kansas as his No.1 choice
Kansas basketball coach Roy Williams visited prep basketball star Andrew Gooden at his home in El Cerrito, Calif., last night and was expected to receive an oral commitment from the forward to play

at the University of Kansas.
The 6-foot-10-inch forward visited Kansas last weekend on an official recruiting visit and attended the football game. Despite the searing Kansas heat, the trip solidified Gooden's decision to become a Javhawk.
Gooden has canceled all in-home and campus visits, excluding last night's visit with Williams. His other final schools were Duke, Michigan, the University of Connecticut, the University of California, the University of Southern California and UCLA.

At El Cerrito High School last year, Gooden averaged 17 points per game and
13 rebounds per game and led the team to 26-7 record.
Gooden increased his value after the Adidas ABCD camp last July in New Jersey. He was the leading rebounder, with
9. 5 rebounds per game, and is the fifth-ranked power forward in the nation, according to Keith Cavanaugh of FastBreak Magazine.
Gooden's decision to play for the Jayhawks did not come as a surprise to many. He was scotted wearing Kansas
Kansas has won more games, with 263 wins, and has a higher winning percentage, at 84 percent, than any other Division I team in the 1990's.

Texas basketball player fails to make the grade
"We are disappointed that Vohn will not be able to contribute in games for us this year," Barnes said. "He will make us a better team by being able to practice with us."
Hunter will have three years of eligibility remaining.
Texas coach Rick Barnes made the announcement yesterday. Hunter will be allowed to practice with the team, but he will not be allowed to travel or play in games this season.
AUSTIN, Texas — Vohn Hunter, University of Texas incoming freshman guard, has enrolled in classes as a partial qualifier. That means he didn't meet all of the academic requirements needed to be eligible this year.
"Hopefully, he can use this year to get a head start in the classroom, work on his strength and conditioning and improve his game."
The Associated Press
Hunter averaged 18.6 points and five rebounds per game in his senior year at St. Raymond's High School in New York City while leading the Ravens to the New York Catholic High School Athletic Association quarterfinals.
Hunter's absence from the team this year leaves the Longhorns in dire need of guards. Two Texas guards, Anthony Goode and Bernard Smith, have transferred to other schools.
Cross country hopes to dash past competition
The Kansas men's and women's cross country teams begin their 1998 season Saturday at the Jayhawk Invitational, where they will compete against tough national competition.
Six teams, two men's and four women's, that finished in last year's top 20 will compete here Saturday.
Cross country coach Gary Schwartz said the invitational would be a good first test for the Jayhawks.
"This is a very tough meet to start out with," he said. "The way our schedule is set up, we'll be running in tough meets all year long."
The men's team will face last year's
national runner - up
Arkansas,
while the women will compete
again in national power house
Georgetown.
which won last year's Jayhawk Invitational and finished No. 10 at the NCAA championships.
Although Kansas will see some of the nation's toughest competition, Schwartz said his teams were up to
the challenge
"We've recruited well, and we're returning some good talent," said Schwartz. "It's just a matter of seeing how all the ingredients come together."
Both teams also will face competition from four Big 12 conference opponents: Baylor, Missouri, Oklahoma and Oklahoma State.
The men's 8K is scheduled to start at 10 a.m. and the women's 5K race will begin at 11 a.m. at Rim Rock Farm, which is northwest of Lawrence.
