--- UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN Tuesday, April 25, 1995 5A Oklahoma City bomb effects felt Continued from Page 1A Spanish accent. Then, as they reach Perry, Okla., the singing ends. Overhead is a swarm of television news helicopters, and the median is full of patrol cars. On the opposite side of the freeway, a tow truck drags the yellow Mercury belonging to bombing suspect Timothy McVeigh. In Oklahoma City, the women's team is glued to the overhead television screen at Bennigan's. "It's amazing how fast they caught this guy," assistant coach Kilmeny Waterman says. "I can't believe that of all the people on the highway, they would stop this guy." When the coverage finally ends, the team decides it needs to relax. They head for either the hotel pool or a local movie theater. A few others head across the street to the arcade, where men's coach Michael Center dominates in air hockey. The men's team arrives later in the day, and after a short practice, they head to dinner. While they eat, the sky turns cloudy. 10 a.m. Saturday: The women take on Oldahoma State at Woodlake Country Club. Again Sim plays singles, and again the Jayhawks are dominant, earning a spot in Sunday's final with another 6-0 win. Across town at the Greens Country Club, the men's team puts a 4-0 pasting on the Oklahoma State men. After the match the men head to Bennigan's for dinner, hoping to see Jimmy, their waiter from the night before. Jimmy was downstown when the bomb exploded, and he spent 17 hours driving injured workers to a nearby hospital. Outside, it continues to rain. The women's team, in attempt to get some extra rest, retires to the hotel early in the evening. 10 a.m. Sunday: The rain continues to fall on Oklahoma City, and both final matches have been moved to Woodlake Country Club. The women's final features Kansas versus Oklahoma, a team that posed considerable challenge to the Jayhawks during the regular season. Merzbacher is visibly nervous, and he spends the warmup period pacing from court to court. His nervousness worsens as the match begins. Oklahoma comes out fired up, winning two quick singles matches and seizing control of the match. Senior Nora Koves then comes back to win from a deep first-set deficit, and the momentum shifts to Kansas. The Jayhawks win the remaining matches, and their fourth consecutive Big Eight Title. But the title excitement was only half-over. The men take the courts next, administering a 4-0 thrashing to the Colorado Buffalooes. Senior Manny Ortiz hits the match's final shot, and when it falls good, he leaps into his teammates' waiting arms. On the court, the tragedy is forgotten. Outside, however, there is only silence. A memorial service is being held downtown, and every home and business is quiet with mourning. As the teams leave for home, feelings of victory are balanced with reminders of loss. Just before the vans pass the chaos of downtown for the last time, the storm finally breaks. For the first time since Friday, the sun starts to shine. CAMPUS BRIEFS Elections begin for Board of Class Officers Elections for the Board of Class Officers will be today and tomorrow in front of Wesco Hall.

Kansan staff report KU passes the test, earns reaccreditation The University of Kansas has been reaccredited by the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools. KU earned the maximum accreditation, which lasts 10 years. KU has been accredited by the association since 1913. Every 10 years, the association conducts an evaluation of the University's status. "I am delighted that a jury of our peers has recognized the many strengths of the University of Kansas and granted us the maximum possible accreditation," Shankel said. "The results of this evaluation are a tribute to the quality of our faculty and students." At Thursday's Board of Regents meeting in Lawrence, Chancellor Del Shankel announced the results of the commission's evaluation. In October 1994, a 14-member team visited the Lawrence campus, the University of Kansas Medical Center and the Regents Center and reviewed a self-study document submitted in August by the University. The team then issued an 80-page report detailing its decision. The report cited the student body's commitment to education, the University's commitment to teaching, collegiality between faculty and administration and superior research efforts as some of KU's strengths. The team also suggested that the University could improve by continuing efforts at diversity, making campus-wide computer networking a high priority and making better use of its international programs.
