"I'll probably vote for Missouri," Maisel said. "The fact is, Missouri beat the 1. team. That was a heck of a game. Both teams played very well."
Maisel said he probably would vote for the Jayhawks at No. 2 and no lower than third in the poll. Since seven of the AP's top eight teams lost either yesterday or last week, logistics favor Missouri's vault to the top

"The rankings at this point are very hard to judge," Maisel said. "It would be difficult to put stock in measuring (who's best)."
Ken Davis, who covers the Big East Conference for the Hartford Courant voted Kansas as the top team for the last eight weeks. Davis said he would leave the Jayhawks second.
"Kansas lost to the No. 4 team, it doesn't hurt that much," said Davis, a 1980 Kansas graduate. "If (voters) weigh this the same as I, then Kansas deserves to be No. 2. This should be the most interesting vote of the year."

Alley said some of the most frequent questions dealt with how the disease was transmitted.
Aids
"Many students want to know if they can get it from kissing," he said. "One student wanted to know if he could get it from a cat since there is a similar virus that is found in cats."
Some schools even allow the volunteers to demonstrate the use of condoms, he said.
"We use a cucumber and a condom," he said. "Though it is light-hearted, it is done very
"We are young enough that we are in tune with the same things they are," he said. "We look like them, dress like them — not long ago we were them."
Alley said he thought the program was successful because of the relaxed interaction with younger students.
Cooney said more high schools were beginning to hear about the program, and STATS was beginning to get more offers than it could handle.
"I want you to know that there are many more legislators in those halls who are for life," she said.
She offered her mother's motto as encouragement to the anti-abortionists.
"I am only one, but I am one," she said. "I cannot do everything, but I can do something."
But Patton said that all the bills would be decided by close votes. Daniels offered some encouragement.

WASHINGTON — Mayor Marion Barry announced yesterday that he would seek help after his arrest on a cocaine possession charge Thursday night.
Barry will seek help at treatment center
The mayor provided no details about what kind of assistance he will seek, except to say that social activist and self-described nutritional expert Dick Gregory had been talking with him about how to get help.
Top advisers to the mayor, speaking on condition of anonymity, said that the mayor was considering checking into the Betty Ford Clinic in Rancho Mirage, Calif., or one of two unnamed clinics in the Washington area. A decision on where the mayor will be treated was expected today.
Herbert O. Reid Sr., one of the mayor's closest personal advisors, said he hoped that from Barry's travails "we can all learn something about drug addiction."
Ketzel, a member of the policy council of the Religious Coalition for Abortion Rights, said her organization planned to speak with state legislators today. A religious service and box lunch will be held at 11:30 a.m. at the First Presbyterian Church, 817 S.W. Harrison Ave., in Topeka. Ketzel said several legislators were invited to attend. The group plans to travel to the capitol after the service to continue meeting with legislators.
While the mayor did not say specifically whether he was suffering from drug abuse, others did.

Similarly, the activists said they were not overly concerned with pending legislation.

"The most serious problem is alcoholism." Barry spokeswoman Lorma Rackley said. "The mayor has acknowledged that he has a health concern, and the details are his private matter."
"I don't think the bill is worth pulling out all the stops for," said Lee Ketzel, referring to House Bill 2683.
book to do again." "He's doing the right thing," Reid said. "I am — we all are — relieved, because many of us have suspected for some time that he has had a problem."
Barry, surrounded by clergy in a broadcast appearance in front of St. Timothy's Episcopal Church near his home, clashed his wife's hand and said he had come "face to face with my deepest human failures."
"These ministers have helped me to keep the strength I need," Barry said. "I'm going to find a way to heal my body, mind and soul."
Barry, 53, was arrested Thursday evening at a downtown hotel in an FBI sting operation. He now faces a misdemeanor cocaine possession charge after testing positive for cocaine in blood and urine tests administered after his arrest.
Barry had been poised to announce his bid for a fourth term as mayor on Sunday but his arrest has thrown local politics into convolutions. Several advisers said Barry had agreed to abandon his bid for re-election, but they said that the possibility of his resigning from office was not discussed in strategy sessions Friday and Saturday.
Law enforcement officials have said that U.S. Attorney Jay B. Stephens would not drop the charges against the mayor unless he steps down.
Stephens has not commented on that issue directly, but he has suggested he would look favorably on Barry's resignation when deciding how to proceed with a broader investigation of the mayor's activities.
One aide who spoke with Barry several times Saturday said that the issue of resigning did not come up for obvious reasons. "There is no reason for him to resign," the aide said. "If he did, he would lose the powers of office, the influence, and the ability to generate money for his treatment program and his legal defense."
One Barry cabinet member suggested that prior grand jury testimony — in which the mayor denied ever using drugs — prevented the mayor from making specific references to drug abuse in his short announcement Sunday.
"If he had said he had a cocaine problem or some other form of drug abuse, then he could possibly face a perjury charge," said the aide.
Price of gas hits $1.13; cold weather to blame
The Associated Press
LOS ANGELES — Cold weather prompted refineries to cut back on gasoline processing in favor of heating oil, which has caused an average 2 cents per gallon price increase in the past two weeks, an analyst said yesterday.
The average price of gasoline, including all grades and taxes, rose 1.97 cents per gallon between Jan. 5 and Jan. 19, analyst Triby Lundberg said. The average price now is 113.06 cents per gallon.
Gasoline prices rose about 4.5 cents per gallon between Lundberg's Dec. 15 and Jan. 5 biveekly surveys of 18,000 gas stations nationwide
"That's the highest level since late July 1989," she said. "I'm attributing this to the effect that home heating
