The time commitment required
of student senators is hefty. Add
school and a social life on top of
that, and you get one very busy
student.
For some though, come spring
semester, things get even more
hectic because of election season.
Those senators who re-run for
their offce positions have to play
a delicate balancing act between
the elections and their other obli-
gations within Senate.
The hardest part is actu-
ally balancing the time. It is like
taking on an additional load of
classes while campaigning, and
you have to work very hard to
balance it all, said student body
president Nick Sterner.
Nolan T. Jones, Pittsburg ju-
nior and Senate communications
director, said the most important
thing was for senators to not
brush off their Senate responsi-
bilities. They still have to do their
offce hours, complete their out-
reach hours and attend a meeting
every Wednesday night.
Senate is work long term
and repetitive work. The ben-
efts are many, but its diffcult for
some to realize that getting a seat
is the tip of the iceberg. If you re-
ally want to achieve something,
youre going to have to be dili-
gent, Jones said.
Jason Boots, Plano, Texas, se-
nior, is running as the presiden-
tial candidate for Ignite. He said
that during elections a lot of his
friendships and studies outside of
Senate take a back seat.
Generally, everybody knows
they have a lot to do, and they
just plan better and do things
more effciently, Boots said. If
I was as effcient all year as I am
during elections, aside from me
going crazy, I would be a star ath-
lete, student, friend and senator.
Another issue that comes up
in Senate during elections is how
to keep the politics of competing
parties out of the weekly meetings
and other offce times.
Sterner, who is no stranger to
the election process, said that most
senators had enough respect for
one another that they are able to
separate the campaign from Sen-
ate duties in a professional manner.
He said, however, that there were
always some issues on a platform
that could cause longer and more
heated discussions in meetings.
As a candidate, you are well
aware of the lines of professional-
ism that should be held between
coalitions and friends that you
have worked with for the past
year, Sterner said.

Two years ago, Jessica Herken did something her
high school persona would have never approved
the Leavenworth senior started smoking.
Herken started smoking socially while surrounded
by friends who smoked. Within the next year, her hab-
its shifted to daytime smoking.
You dont realize it, she said.
Despite smokings inherent health risks, Herken con-
tinued to smoke regularly to cope with the stress in her
life.
Nearly 25 percent of college women smoke, and a
quarter of todays smokers started after turning 18, ac-
cording to the American Legacy Foundation, the or-
ganization that sponsors the truth campaign.
The foundation selected the University of Kansas
as one of 12 pilot sites for the Circle of Friends pro-
gram by the American Legacy Foundation. The Circle
of Support, the KU branch of Circle of Friends, exists
to have women support other women who are trying
to quit smoking.
Social support is important to helping anyone
quit, but especially for women because they rely on
friends, said Melissa Smith, manager of the Wellness
Resource Center at Watkins Memorial Health Center.
Participants use a workbook from the American
Legacy Foundation to identify their smoking patterns
and get help establishing a circle, a group of people
dedicated to providing support for quitting smok-
ers.

Pat Mayo, a registered nurse at the Heartland Medical Clinic, works with Elizabeth Tomlin, Overland Park senior,

Two foors below Abe and
Jakes Landing, a bar KU stu-
dents frequent each weekend, is
a place many students may not
know about.
The non-proft clinic offers
discounted and sometimes even
free medical services to those
who cant afford them. The clin-
ic is little known because the
staff would rather spend money
on treating patients than on ad-
vertising.
The non-proft Heartland
Medical Clinic operates fve
days a week from the frst foor
of the Riverfront Plaza, offering
discounted and sometimes even
free medical services to those
who cant afford them. Heart-
land serves as a family practice
and urgent care facility, and on
average it sees about 400 pa-
tients per month.
Heartland tries to offer only
services that it can provide at
lower prices than other facili-
ties. It is largely funded by do-
nations, as the $42 fee charged
for frst-time patients and $28
for subsequent visits account
for less than half of its operat-
ing costs.
The clinic uses a lot of KU
students as volunteers to answer
phones, do fling and assist with
patient care. The volunteering
cuts the clinics costs and al-
lows pre-med and pre-nursing
students a chance to get hands-
on experience. This semester,
the clinic has 18 student volun-
teers.
Pat Mayo, a registered nurse
and one of two paid staff mem-
bers at the clinic, said he really
enjoyed having students around
the clinic.
Theyre fun, Mayo said. I
hope I will always, always have
a job where I can work with stu-
dents.
The students are trained on
how to take blood pressure, in-
terview patients before they see
the doctor and perform basic
laboratory tests.
Heidi Waldschmidt, Derby
freshman, has been volunteer-
ing at Heartland since the begin-
ning of the semester and usually
comes every Monday afternoon.
She said that volunteering at the
clinic had confrmed her desire
to go into the medical profes-
sion.
You get to see a lot and its
medical experience, Wald-
schmidt said. Theyre really
good about teaching us things
and showing us things and let-
ting us participate.

KJHK to
resume

In the middle of the lunch rush,
Tyler Levy pauses from making
sandwiches to turn off the Led
Zepplin CD that has been skip-
ping for the last minute.
Tyler Levy and Travis Gre-
benick both work at the Round
Corner Cheese & Salami Shoppe,
Eighth and Massachusetts streets.
Usually the two would be working
to the music of KJHK, but with the
station off air because of damage
to its tower, CDs and iPods have
been used to fll the void.
We get really tired of our CDs,
Grebenick said. KJHK plays a
great variety of music, so youll
never hear the same song twice.
The good news for KJHK fans
is the station is broadcasting via
its Web site, www.kjhk.org, and
installation of the stations anten-
na could happen as early as this
week.
Andy Dierks, general manager
and program adviser for KJHK,
said debris from the March 12
microburst had damaged the 82-
year-old radio tower behind Mar-
vin Hall.
Dierks said a meeting that in-
cluded KU staff from Facility Op-
erations and the Design and Con-
struction Management Offce was
held during spring break. They
determined that the damaged old
radio tower should be demolished
and the stations antenna should
be moved to the KANU radio
tower near the Lied Center. Dierks
said the University has been very
helpful in this process.
One of their main concerns
was KJHK, Dierks said. They
wanted to make sure the station
wasnt off the air long.
Dierks said the process had
been easier because the University
had already planned to move the
antenna to the KANU tower this
summer. With much of the admin-
istration and technological work
already done, the process has been
relatively smooth said Dierks.

Quit horsing around!
By Erin CastanEda
editor@kansan.com
kansan correspondent
Isaac Dill, Lawrence senior, has
been a parking offcer for fve years.
He said it was the frst job he ap-
plied for when he came to KU.
Q: What is the biggest mis-
conception about the parking
department?
ID: The biggest misconcep-
tion is that we enjoy our work.
Its just something you have to
do, but we are ticketing the car,
not the people. There are lots of
jobs that can do harm, such as
a fast-food burger restaurant; it
makes people fat, a bank con-
trols your money.
Q: How do you feel about the
parking lot development by the
Lied Center?
ID: I dont think building
lots is a step in the right direc-
tion. Those students may have
an uproar about this, I think
they should limit those living in
residence halls, and if they are
freshman they shouldnt have
a car. There are lots of other
Big 12 universities that do that.
I think emphasis should be
placed on alternatives such as
improving the bus system rath-
er than taking up space with
more lots.
Q: What makes you different
from the other parking offcers?
ID: I am constantly in trou-
ble. Im not as motivated after
working here for fve years.
I see the light at the end of
the tunnel because Im about
to graduate and Im slowing
down here.
Q: Have you ever received a
ticket?
ID: Yes, I have had four tick-
ets. Its worse for employees.
Q: What are the weirdest
things youve seen?
ID: Ive seen people trying to
make their own permits. They
lost their parking privileges for
a year if they get caught.
Q: Whats the worst part of
the job?
ID: Ive been pushed and
spit on when I was either tick-
eting or towing cars. Once we
had to tow cars late at night
by The Wheel because schol-
arship hall residents couldnt
park and we were receiving a
lot of complaints.
Q: What is the best thing
about the job?
ID: There are some perks.
Whenever I ticket a car thats
in a handicap spot I feel good
about what Im doing. You
see a hip athletic looking guy
get out of a SUV in a handi-
cap spot and see a granny on
a walker; its not fair to the
grannies.

Man mistakenly billed
$4000 for four burgers
PALMDALE, Calif. A quick
meal at George Beanes neigh-
borhood Burger King ended
up costing a lot more than
he expected when he got the
$4,334.33 bill.
Beane ordered two Whopper
Jr.s and two Rodeo cheeseburg-
ers when he pulled up to the
drive-through window last week.
The cashier, however, forgot that
shed entered the $4.33 charge
on his debit card and punched
in the numbers again without
erasing the original ones thus
creating a four-fgure bill.
The electronic charge went
through to George and Pat
Beanes checking account Tues-
day and left the couple penni-
less. Their mortgage payment
was due and they worried
checks they had written would
bounce, Pat Beane said.
Terri Woody, the restaurant
manager, said Burger King
offcials tried to get the charge
refunded. But the bank said
the funds were on a three-day
hold and could not be re-
leased, Pat Beane said.
Burger King did not charge
the Beanes for their meal, and
the couple got their $4,334.33
back on Friday.
For those three days, those
were the most expensive value
burgers in history, Pat Beane
said.

eHarmony wont fnd
match for married man
EMERYVILLE, Calif. John
Claassen is suing the popular
online matchmaker eHarmony
for refusing to help him fnd a
date. The company says theres
one good reason for that: Hes
still married.
Claassen, a 36-year-old
lawyer, fled a lawsuit in Al-
ameda County Superior Court,
alleging eHarmony abridged
his civil rights by refusing to
match him up.
He said the company, which
has an unmarried only
policy, broke state law by
discriminating against him
based on his marital status. He
considers himself separated.
Claassen, who is seeking
$12,000 in civil penalties, said
Monday he expects his divorce
to be offcial in about two
months, but that he shouldnt
have to wait until then to use
eHarmony.
But in an e-mail to Claassen,
the company said he would
be welcome to join once your
divorce is fnal.

Boy crawls into vending

chute in the Toy Chest claw
machine at a local Godfa-
thers Pizza. The boy ended
up getting stuck amid all the
toys.

Actor, writer, musician and
former RENT star Anthony
Rapp will perform a one-man
show tonight at 7:30 in Murphy
Hall at the Crafton-Preyer The-
atre.
The event co-
incides with this
years Queers
and Allies Pride
Week.
Rapp will
talk about his
rise to fame
during a time of
emotional tur-
moil when his
mother died after battling breast
cancer.
Queers and Allies Pride Week
chairman Jimmie Manning said
that Rapp would lecture about
how he succeeded in the career
he wanted and also would sing
two songs.
After the show, Rapp will be
signing copies of his book With-
out You: A Memoir of Love,
Loss, and the Musical RENT in
the Crafton-Preyer lobby.
Stefan Volger, Overland
Park sophomore, said he was
ushering the event for Queers
and Allies.
He said he was looking for-
ward to seeing Rapp perform
live and possibly having an
opportunity to meet him.
Students can get free tickets
with a KUID at the University
Theatre or Student Union Ac-
tivities ticket offices.
Tickets for the public and
non-KU students are $10.
Tickets must be picked up in
advance.
Queers and Allies wanted
to make it free for students so
anyone that wanted to could
see and be a part of the show,
Manning said.
A technical problem on the
University Theatre Web site
rumored the show to be sold
out, but tickets are still avail-
able for purchase.
Rapps one-man perfor-
mance and book signing is
co-sponsored by University
Theatre.

$7,600 of basketball
clothes reported stolen
According to a police re-
port filed by a KU employee,
more than $7,600 worth of
KU Mens Basketball cloth-
ing was stolen from a trailer
in a parking lot west of An-
schutz Sports Pavilion.
Between 5 p.m. Tuesday
and 7:45 p.m. Thursday of
last week, someone dam-
aged the padlock used to se-
cure the storage trailer and
stole the athletic clothing.
The clothing included six
jerseys, 27 pairs of shorts,
18 Velour warm ups, 136
T-shirts, 20 sweat shirts and
eight parkas, which be-
longed to KU Athletics.
Jim Marchiony, associ-
ate athletic director, said
the Athletics Department
is working with both the
Lawrence Police Depart-
ment and the KU Public
Safety Office to recover the
apparel.
Over the last 24 hours,
we have recovered several
of the stolen items, Mar-
chiony said.
According to a police
report filed Friday seven
parkas, 40 T-shirts and 15
pairs of shorts worth $1,658
have been recovered.
Marchiony said the
Athletics Department will
continue to work with both
the Lawrence police and
KU Public Safety Office to
try to recover all the stolen
merchandise.
Neither the Lawrence Po-
lice Department nor the KU
Public Safety Office could
be reached for comment
Tuesday.

were faced with a $3,000 surgery bill they couldnt afford. Colleen Bighley
shared her grief on a pug-lovers Web site and 14 minutes after Bighleys
post, a pug owner in Australia offered to donate money for the surgery.
Others followed, and more than 200 donations totaling about $2,000 came in,
from as far as France and Alaska.
TRAnspORTATiOn
new buses may drive
onto campus soon
Last night, the University
came one step closer to re-
ceiving $1.1 million from the
federal government to help
purchase five new buses.
At the Lawrence City
Commission Meeting Tues-
day night, the ordinance
was approved without
discussion. The city is not
directly affected by the pro-
posal, but must receive the
federal money on behalf of
the University.
The five buses would be
used to operate the new
Park and Ride lot currently
under construction on West
Campus. The Kansan previ-
ously reported that the lot
would be in operation by
the beginning of the Fall
2006 semester.
A memo from Cliff Galan-
te, transit administrator
for the City of Lawrence,
stated that the buses would
be purchased from Optima
Bus Company for $269,601
each. Funds from the Fed-
eral Transit Administration
would cover 80 percent of
the total, and the University
would pay for the remaining
20 percent.
University officials said
in a March 15 memo that
without the funding help it
would take about two years
to purchase the buses, and
there is a need for more
parking on campus right
now.
Galante told local me-
dia on Monday that the
proposal did not impact
studies currently underway
on the possibility of merg-
ing the city and school bus
systems.

TOPEKA Normally, the
All-Kansas Spelling Bee is a
winner-take-all affair.
But after a disputed fnish
Saturday, offcials have decided
to send two competitors to the
national contest in Washing-
ton.
Fourteen-year-old Kent To-
land, of Iola, was the frst an-
nounced winner, beating out
Olathe ffth-grader Aishwarya
Pastapur. But there was a prob-
lem.
Aishwarya, 10, had mis-
spelled pestle. Kent got it right
and then spelled trigonometry
for the apparent win tying his
brother, Scott, who won two
titles several years ago.
But Aishwaryas father, Es-
hwar Pastapur, protested that
his daughter had been given the
wrong primary pronunciation of
pestle (the t is silent).
I was like, Hmm, thats
strange. I dont know this
word, said Aishwarya, who
guessed at P-E-S-T-I-L-E. It
was a foreign word to me.
Kent had asked for a sec-
ondary pronunciation, and so
heard the word the right way.
He spelled his last word before
Aishwaryas father could lodge
his appeal, but the judges ruled
that she should be allowed to
continue anyway.
Before we knew it, they start-
ed taking these medals off these
childrens necks, said Kents
mother, Karen Toland.
The ruling caught Kent off
guard, too.
I felt not ready to spell any-
more, he said Monday. I was
ready to go home and relax.
Any spelling bee is just a mara-
thon.
Kent misspelled his next
word, hypolimnion. Aish-
warya got it right, then correct-
ly spelled teleological for the
victory. This time, the Tolands
protested, but to no avail. The
frst-place medal went to Aish-
warya.
It was hard to watch the kids
go through that, said Christy
Underwood, sales manager of
The Salina Journal and one of
the judges. I won. No, I didnt.
Maybe I won. I dont know. It
was hard to watch the kids go
through that emotional strug-
gle.
But on Monday, The Topeka
Capital-Journal, which has host-
ed the state contest for the past
53 years, appealed to offcials at
Scripps Howard, sponsor of the
national bee.
Offcials there decided to
declare Aishwarya and Kent
co-champions, inviting both
to the national fnals May 31-
June 1.
We are pleased that both
children get to represent Kan-
sas in the national bee, said
Terri Benson, the newspapers
director of marketing. They
are both exceptional spellers,
and we are pleased with the
outcome.
Both families remain con-
vinced they have the rightful
winner but for now, there is
another competition to prepare
for.
Its all about the kids, said
Bharati Pastapur, Aishwaryas
mother. And two good kids are
going from one state.
The rules do not limit each
state to one competitor, but nor-
mally each qualifying bee can
have only one winner.
Exceptions are possible on
a case-by-case basis, said Paige
Kimble, director of the Scripps
National Spelling Bee.
If we feel that the judges
erred procedurally in such a
manner that it is irreparable, if
there is not a way to sort out
who could or should have won,
we will declare co-champions
in the interest of the children,
Kimble said.
Kansas will have a third rep-
resentative in Washington, after
9-year-old Kavya Shivashankar
also a ffth grader won the
Olathe School Districts qualify-
ing bee.

Studie Red Corn, Shawnee
sophomore and presidential can-
didate of Delta Force, said that it
took a lot of dedication to be in
Senate and run for offce, but that
you had to keep the campaign
separate from Senate. He said
during Delta Forces candidate
training they addressed the issue.
We incorporate ethical stan-
dards in to our candidate train-
ing, he said. This includes
things like interacting with our
opponents in a respectful man-
ner, in and out of Student Senate.
We believe that divisions in Sen-
ate should not get in the way of
helping the student body.

Heartland
continued from page 1a
On the other hand, Elizabeth
Tomlin, Overland Park senior, is
a psychology major and has no
intentions of pursuing a medical
career. She started volunteering
after she broke her foot and fol-
lowed a recommendation that she
go to Heartland because it offered
cheaper X-rays. She was impressed
by her experience at the clinic.
Everybody who works here
genuinely cares about the peo-
ple who come in, Tomlin said.
Theyre not just another patient,
they know their names.
Though Heartland Church,
where Tomlin worships, and the
clinic only share a name by coin-
cidence, the clinic did start as a
Christian-based ministry, operat-
ing for a half day a week out of a
hallway in the church.
Dennis Sale, the doctor who
founded the clinic, works two other
jobs so that he can donate his time
to the clinic three days a week.
I feel its my ministry and thats
why I do it, he said. If I didnt
feel that way I certainly dont need
the extra hours and stress.
Although the clinic is ministry-
based and geared to provide for
low-income or uninsured people,
they will see people of any faith
or income level. When patients
choose to pay for their visit with
insurance that usually helps to
cover the cost of a patient who
could not afford to pay.

Support

The KU Circle of Support also
holds optional group coaching
sessions each Thursday at 5:30
p.m. in the northwest corner of
the Kansas Union Marketplace.
Patty Quinlan, nursing supervi-
sor at Watkins, quit smoking last
month with the support of her
circle. Quinlan, who calls herself
a professional quitter and has
tried to quit before, said having a
named group of supporters, was
one of the things that made this
attempt successful.
Quinlan said those trying to
quit should surround themselves
with as many supportive allies as
possible. Within her circle, two
members have quit smoking.
Mark Thompson, assistant pro-
fessor of health, sport and exercise
science, said most estimates of
the number of smokers were low
because social smokers did not
consider themselves true smokers.
As many as 30 percent of college
smokers did not admit it, he said.
Smith said many anti-smoking
messages fell on deaf ears. College-
aged students were the youngest
to which tobacco companies can
market and make up the largest
group of smokers in the United
States, she said.
Herken said she tried to quit
smoking in the past, but other things
interfered with her plans. Gradua-
tion might bring enough change to
help meet that goal, she said.

President Bush confers with Josh Bolton aboard Air Force One enroute to Portland, Maine, in January 2002. Bush named Bolten, Director of the Offce of
Management and Budget, as chief of staff to succeed Andrew Card, on Tuesday.
By Terence HunT
the associated press
WASHINGTON Strug-
gling to revive his troubled pres-
idency, President Bush replaced
longtime chief of staff Andy
Card with budget director Josh-
ua Bolten on Tuesday and gave
Bolten authority to make fur-
ther changes in a White House
staff that even Republicans have
complained is tired, insular and
lacking fresh ideas.
Appearing with Bush in the
Oval Offce, Bolten gave no hint
about what, if any, shake-up he
might order. But White House
offcials said no one should
doubt his ability to replace
Bush aides. Hell have all the
authority he needs ... to make
the decisions that he feels best,
working with the president,
White House spokesman Scott
McClellan said.
Like Card, Bolten, 51, is
a Washington insider whose
ties reach back to Bushs 2000
campaign for the White House.
Democrats as well as some
Republicans grumbled that
the new White House boss
looked a lot like the old one.
Bush said of Bolten, Hes a
man of candor and humor and
directness, whos comfortable
with responsibility and knows
how to lead. No person is bet-
ter prepared for this important
position.
Before being named budget
director in 2003, Bolten was
Cards deputy chief of staff for
policy, a colleague of such se-
nior aides as Karl Rove and Dan
Bartlett.
Alarmed by Bushs falling ap-
proval ratings and White House
mistakes from the bungled
Hurricane Katrina reaction to
the ill-fated deal to allow an
Arab company to manage U.S.
ports Republicans have been
urging the president to bring in
new advisers with fresh energy.
The GOPs concerns have been
heightened by anxiety over mid-
term congressional elections
in November. Card, as chief of
staff, became a target for blame.
Said Democratic National
Committee communications di-
rector Karen Finney: As the say-
ing goes, you can put lipstick on
a pig, but its still a pig. Unfortu-
nately for the American people,
all President Bush did today was
make it clear that they should
expect nothing more than the
same failed policies they have
come to know.

Enron trial advances;
defense to make case
By KrisTen Hays
the associated press
HOUSTON Federal pros-
ecutors rested their fraud and
conspiracy case Tuesday against
former Enron Corp. chiefs Ken-
neth Lay and Jeffrey Skilling
and dropped four counts against
them to streamline an already
complicated case.
The defendants appeared un-
daunted after almost two dozen
witnesses bolstered the govern-
ments claim that they commit-
ted crimes at the energy trading
company before it sought bank-
ruptcy protection in December
2001.
Were looking forward to
getting on the stand and getting
our case out there the posi-
tive case, Lay told reporters
outside the federal courthouse
in Houston.
Their defense teams will be-
gin presenting their case in the
premier trial to emerge from
Enrons rubble on Monday, but
other witnesses are likely to
be overshadowed by the main
event, when Lay and Skilling
take the stand.
We are anxious to get our
story told, said lead Skilling
lawyer Daniel Petrocelli, his cli-
ent at his side.
Prosecutors declined com-
ment, as is customary during a
high-profle trial.
Lay and Skilling will enter
the defense phase a little lighter
because U.S. District Judge Sim
Lake approved a government
request to drop several charges
against them for which it had
presented no evidence. Two
counts of securities fraud and
one count of lying to auditors
pending against Skilling were
dropped, leaving 28 criminal
counts against him; and a single
count of securities fraud against
Lay was dropped, leaving six in
his case.
Lake denied routine requests
from the defense for acquittal.
The dropped counts against
Skilling stemmed from allega-
tions the former chief executive
signed a fraudulent quarterly
report submitted to the Securi-
ties and Exchange Commission;
lied about Enrons health during
a frst-quarter earnings confer-
ence call; and signed a state-
ment to auditors that vouched
for fudged fnancial statements.
The count against Lay that
was dropped grew from allega-
tions the company founder lied
to analysts about Enrons fnanc-
es during a conference call.
Lay also faces a separate case
related to his personal banking.
In one count of bank fraud and
three counts of lying to banks,
prosecutors allege he obtained
$75 million in loans from three
banks and then reneged on an
agreement with the lenders that
he wouldnt use the money to
carry or buy Enron stock on
margin. That case will be tried
without a jury before Lake, be-
ginning while jurors in the cur-
rent Enron trial begin what are
expected to be lengthy delibera-
tions.
Prosecutors say Lay and Skill-
ing repeatedly lied about the en-
ergy companys fnancial health
when they allegedly knew ac-
counting maneuvers propped
up an image of success.
The government built its case
on the recollections of witness-
es, audiotapes of conference
calls with Wall Street analysts
and videotapes of employee
meetings.
It often lacked tangible
proof such as e-mails, docu-
ments or notes. Neither Lay
nor Skilling was known to use
e-mail at Enron.

WASHINGTON The na-
tions largest labor organization
on Tuesday criticized plans to
expand guest worker programs
for immigrants seeking to come
to the United States, parting
company with longtime Senate
Democratic allies who pushed
successfully to include them in
broad-based immigration legis-
lation.
Guest worker programs are
a bad idea and harm all work-
ers, AFL-CIO President John
Sweeney said in a statement
released the day after the Sen-
ate Judiciary Committee cleared
an immigration bill. They cast
workers into a perennial sec-
ond-class status, and unfairly
put their fates into their employ-
ers hands.
Sweeneys statement praised
numerous provisions of the
overall immigration legisla-
tion, particularly a part that
gives illegal aliens an oppor-
tunity to apply for citizenship.
Still, his criticism underscored
the unusual political pressures
at work as President Bush and
Congress grapple with an emo-
tional issue in the run-up to
midterm elections.
Republicans have long ap-
peared divided over the immi-
gration issue, with Bush and
some GOP members of Con-
gress supporting temporary
worker programs that other Re-
publicans attack as amnesty for
lawbreakers.
On the other hand, Sen. Ed-
ward M. Kennedy (D-Mass.) a
longtime liberal, was the target
of good-natured jokes during
the committee meeting for his
work with the U.S. Chamber of
Commerce on the immigration
measure. And while Sweeney
criticized the temporary worker
program, the Service Employees
International Union issued a
statement supporting the Judi-
ciary Committee measure.
The legislation, to be debated
on the Senate foor beginning
Wednesday, includes two provi-
sions that together could create
room for nearly 2 million tem-
porary workers.
One is a fve-year temporary
program for up to 1.5 million ag-
ricultural workers advanced by
Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.)
Immigrants living in the U.S. il-
legally as well as those outside
the country would be eligible.
The other, backed by Ken-
nedy, would create a new tem-
porary visa to allow as many as
400,000 foreign workers into
the country.
In both cases, individuals
would have an opportunity to
apply for citizenship after sev-
eral years.
All eight Democrats on the
Judiciary Committee supported
both guest worker provisions
on Monday, and all of them fre-
quently work in concert with
organized labor.
Feinstein said during the
committee meeting that the ag-
riculture industry was almost
entirely dependent on undocu-
mented workers, a reference
to individuals in the country
illegally. She described her pro-
posal as an attempt to assure a
legal workforce. The people are
here. Theyre going to work re-
gardless, she said of thousands
of illegal immigrants who pick
crops.
Kennedy, arguably labors
strongest voice in Congress,
noted that the proposal has
the support of agribusiness
and farm workers. Sen. Pat-
rick Leahy of Vermont, an-
other longtime ally of labor,
said he, too, was satisfied
with the program, noting that
it had provisions that would
help his states dairy industry.
Sen. Charles Schumer of New
York added that he had no
difficulty with the provision,
either, as long as there were
no problems associated with
farms in his state. The New
York Democrat is chairman
of the partys senatorial com-
mittee, which relies on labors
support.
Sweeney saw things differ-
ently.
Guest worker programs
encourage employers to turn
good jobs into temporary jobs
at reduced wages and dimin-
ished working conditions and
contribute to the growing class
of workers laboring in poverty,
he said.
Sweeney issued his statement
as White House spokesman
Scott McClellan told reporters
that Bush wants a temporary
worker program included in any
immigration measure that clears
Congress. Because what a tem-
porary worker program would
do is help relieve pressure on
the border. It will allow our law
enforcement offcials and Bor-
der Patrol agents to focus on
those who are coming here for
the wrong reasons, the criminals
and the drug dealers and the ter-
rorists, he said.
The House has yet to pass leg-
islation dealing with immigra-
tion issues involving workers,
although it has approved a bill
that calls for building a fence
along 700 miles of the border
with Mexico.
Majority Leader John Boeh-
ner (R-Ohio) who voted to ap-
prove the fence project, indi-
cated he may change his mind
based on a recent trip to the
Southwest. He told reporters he
had met with farmers as well as
law enforcement offcials and
no one in the room thought the
wall would work, because if you
build the wall, then you have to
police the wall.

LOS ANGELES Huff is
back, and now the shrink will
have a shrink of his own.
Things turn even more com-
plicated personally and profes-
sionally for Dr. Craig Huff
Huffstodt, so by the ffth episode
of the Showtime series second
season, the troubled psychiatrist,
portrayed by Hank Azaria, seeks
help from an alternative therapist,
played by Anjelica Huston.
Huston isnt the only big-name
star signed on for an arc on the
critically acclaimed drama, which
returns Sunday at 9 p.m. In the
frst four episodes, Sharon Stone
portrays a larcenous public-rela-
tions executive who is taken on as
a client by Huffs best friend, emo-
tionally berserk lawyer Russell
Tupper, played by Oliver Platt.
Huff creator and executive
producer Bob Lowry says this
sophomore season was a particu-
lar challenge because of the sea-
son fnale of season one, which
I call the convergence episode,
where every single core charac-
ter came together in Huffs drive-
way with people being pushed
down the steps, being caught
in bed, stealing cars and driving
away, and dying of cancer.
Thats a lot of threads to con-
nect and pick up without riddling
your audience with hype and ex-
position and still keeping it en-
tertaining for new viewers, which
I hope ... we get with Sharon
Stone, he says.
Despite a relatively modest au-
dience, the series earned seven
Emmy nominations last year
and won two of them.

Spring break may be fnished
but dont let that be your ex-
cuse to stop working out.
Summer is creeping up and
there couldnt be a better time
to work out. An even better
option is to take your workout
outdoors where you can enjoy a
fresh perspective, according to
Shape magazine.
People get bored work-
ing out every day in the same
environment, which drives
their workouts downhill. Trying
something new, like working
out outdoors, can be the jump-
start you need.
My favorite outdoor exercise
is running stadium stairs. I start
with a simple warmup either
walking or jogging a few laps
around the track then I take
it to the stairs. When it comes
to stadium stairs, the possibili-
ties are endless.
You have numerous options in
how to run the stairs and can also
incorporate body-weight resis-
tance exercises to amplify your
caloric expenditure. You can do
anything from running up every
stair to hopping up the stairs to
walking up backwards, which
targets the glutes and hamstrings.
I like to add in pushups with
either my hands on the railings
or the bench, calf raises stand-
ing on a stair or stadium bench
and tricep dips. You can also
do walking lunges around the
track and body-weight squats. To
make the lunges or squats harder
(since you dont have any added
weight) you can slow the exer-
cise down to further challenge
yourself.
You can also do football-style
drills such as shuffes and kara-
oke runs down the track along
with sprints to take it to an even
higher level. If youre new, re-
member to take it slow and work
at your own level. Maybe the frst
time you attempt stadium stairs
just walk up them and once you
become comfortable with that
you can begin running them.
Always remember to cool down
and stretch before heading home.
Here are some helpful tips
when working out in warm
weather:
u Dress appropriately
if its hot, make sure to wear
clothes that have breathable
fabrics so your body doesnt
overheat. Nike has a great dri-
ft collection that aids in warm
weather workouts.
u Drink plenty of water to
prevent dehydration.
u Listen to your body if
you get cramps or have trouble
breathing, take it down a notch.
Whichever workout you
choose to do outside, add variety
and make it fun. You can add
outside workouts whenever the
weather is nice to compliment
your inside workouts and add a
new twist to your daily routine.

Anyone who is saying that
our basketball team sucks
might as well be rooting for
K-State or Missouri. Because
as far as Im concerned, you
cannot call yourself a KU
fan if you are dissing the
same team that won the Big
12 Championship with the
youngest starting lineup in
school history.
Its that time of year again,
when you get attacked repeated-
ly by determined Student Senate
candidates when walking across
campus. No, you do not want
their fier. No, you would not
like to hear about their plat-
forms. Yes, you would like to
shove them out of the way. Even
with your iPod on full blast and
both the Ignite and Delta Force
buttons on your backpack,
theyll fnd a way to penetrate
your defenses and talk to you as
you pass on Wescoe Beach.
Short of making you watch
propaganda flms Clockwork
Orange-style, they are trying
to inform you about the issues
they are working on. Why are
they doing this? Besides an
almost unhealthy enthusiasm
for senate, they do this because
thats the only way they think
they will get through to you.
And theyre almost right. How
many times have you said to
yourself, Why, I do say, what
are those platforms the coali-
tions are running on this year?
Not often. Most likely, you
could care less and just wait for
the elections to blow over. But
think about the aftermath, when
these coalitions get elected and,
heaven forbid, they DO make
changes. You know the imple-
mentation of the paperless ticket
system for the mens basketball
season this year? What about
the increase in student fees?
All of that was decided by the
current senate. It doesnt mat-
ter how you feel about those
changes now, because you had
your chance to vote on the
those senators last year.
So educate yourselves.
Instead of giving a stiff arm to
every candidate who approach-
es you, accept one of their fiers.
Heck, maybe even glance over
it for a few seconds so you actu-
ally know whats going on. Now
the next step is going to be a bit
harder: Vote in the election. So
far, the average turnout has been
about 15 percent of the student
body. Just think: If more people
such as yourself voted for the
coalition whose platform you
identifed with, elected senators
would see how much support
they received for their issues and
would have a greater resolve to
implement them because the
student body has spoken not
whispered what it wants.
Become an engaged and
informed student. That way,
when they try to hand you a
fier for the 15th time, you can
honestly tell them, I know
your platforms and Im going to
vote. Now shove it.

The history of African Americans
is one that is flled with struggle. They
have struggled for recognition, for free-
dom and for equality. However, more
important than the struggles of black
people is the part of African-American
history that is flled with success.
Booker T. Washington said, Success
is to be measured not so much by the
position that one has reached in life as
by the obstacles which he has overcome
while trying to succeed.
There are many African Americans
who have overcome such obstacles
which have made their lives and stories
successes. One is Blanche Ketene Bruce.
Born in Brunswick, Mo., in 1861,
Bruce was named after his uncle, who was
the frst African-American U.S. senator.
Bruces story begins quite a bit before
that. Bruces grandparents were enslaved
and not allowed to be formally educated.
But Bruces grandmother knew the
importance of education, and she sent
one of her children with the masters son
while he was being tutored.
Her child would then come home and
teach the lessons of the day to all of the
other children in the household, giving
them the gift of literacy.
One of those children was Bruces mother.
When she was able to have her own fam-
ily, she remembered to instill in them the
importance of education. Bruce believed in
this whole-heartedly and grew up wanting to
educate people. He attended Lincoln Univer-
sity, but because Lincoln was only a two-year
university, he could not obtain the teaching
certifcate that he wanted. So he came and
enrolled at the University of Kansas.
In 1885, a decade before the land-
mark case Plessy v. Ferguson that estab-
lished the separate but equal doctrine,
Bruce became the Universitys frst
African-American graduate.
Bruce moved to Leavenworth and
became the principal of Sumner School.
He was the principal for 54 years. Bruce
also spent time tutoring students outside of
school. According to Unsung Heroes, a
module/museum in Leavenworth, Bruce is
known for having tutored 1800 young men
for entrance to the military service acad-
emies with only three failing to qualify.
Relatives say that he tutored nearly
3000 students at his home.
Booker T. Washington is correct in say-
ing that success should only be measured
by the obstacles overcome. The obstacles
that Bruce overcame coming from a
family that lived during slavery, becoming
the frst African American graduate of the
University made him a success. He was
an even bigger success by being a mentor,
educator and role model to students for
more than half a century.
Bruces story is of great importance to
black history and also to present-day society.
Not only does it show that one must never
give up, it also says that if something has
never been done before, one should con-
tinue to follow his or her dreams. Most im-
portantly, he was taught by his grandmother
and mother the importance of education.
Through his actions, both here at the Uni-
versity and in Leavenworth, he taught people
that education was of supreme importance.
The impact that Bruces story should have
is that in the face of all that society battles
socio-economic problems, prejudice,
ignorance, sexism, racism, homophobia
people must put education frst.
It is the only thing that will allow
anyone to truly overcome.
n Tyrone Brown is a Topeka senior in

McCollum Hall ARC and the KU Bookstores sponsored an essay contest in honor of Black History Month. This years theme
was Never too Late to Learn Black History, Our History. Below are the frst- and second-place entries.
Regardless of having a star on
Hollywoods Walk of Fame, Oscar
Micheaux has practically been cut out of
flm history.
This seems all too strange, consider-
ing the man pioneered African-Ameri-
can cinema and his infuence is evident
in the flms of modern African-American
flmmakers such as Spike Lee, John
Singleton and Melvin Van Peebles.
Alas, Micheauxs name is one that
rarely pops up in flm history courses or
everyday discussion of African-Ameri-
can flm. Some of the most astute flm
students have never heard of him.
This is all too distressing, considering
that Micheaux was the frst African-
American to produce and direct a fea-
ture flm, The Homesteader, in 1919.
In just less than 30 years, between
1919 and 1948, Micheaux made 44
films. Even though most of them
had staggeringly low budgets, he still
managed to produce at least one film
per year. The films featured all or
mostly black casts and were specifi-
cally geared toward African-Ameri-
can audiences. This is important:
Major motion pictures at the time
scarcely featured African Americans,
and when they did, they were mainly
designated to roles as servants or
stereotypical Uncle Tom or foolish
characters that could not be taken
seriously at all and blatantly perpetu-
ated stereotypes of blacks being lazy,
unintelligible and unintelligent.
Micheaux not only created flms as
entertainment for blacks, putting Afri-
can-American actors in roles similar to
popular mainstream actors and actress-
es, but also made flms that dealt with
racism.
Micheauxs second feature Within
Our Gates was made in response
to D.W. Griffiths revolutionary film
The Birth of a Nation, which de-
picted the Ku Klux Klan rising and
saving the South. The film featured
the most violently racist and hor-
rific African-American stereotypes
in film history. Within Our Gates
was quickly banned in Chicago; The
Birth of a Nation was heavily pro-
moted. People dressed up like Klan
members on the streets promoting
the movie.
Within Our Gates challenged all
these notions of racism, which America
was so eager to accept because of The
Birth of a Nations technical achieve-
ments in flmmaking.
It was Micheaux and flms like
Within Our Gates that helped obtain
African-American rights in cinema.
Micheaux was a pioneer, a maverick
who went against the system to give
African Americans a voice in a medium
that had betrayed them.
He proved that African Americans
could play roles besides fools and ser-
vants and were just as capable of carry-
ing a flm as white Hollywood stars.
Micheaux sowed the seeds for Afri-
can-American flm, which became fully
realized when Spike Lee made Do the
Right Thing. Although it was released
70 years after Micheaux released his frst
flm, it fnally put race and racism in the
spotlight.
Who knows how long it would have
taken if Micheaux didnt go against Hol-
lywood and start making movies of his
own to provide a voice for his people.

WASHINGTON Caspar
W. Weinberger, who oversaw the
Pentagons biggest peacetime
spending increase as President
Reagans defense secretary and
later was indicted for his role
in the Iran-Contra affair, died
Tuesday. He was 88.
Weinberger had been hospi-
talized in Bangor, Maine, with
a high fever and pneumonia
brought on by his age, accord-
ing to his son, Caspar Weinberg-
er Jr.
He left the U.S. armed forc-
es stronger, our country safer
and the world more free, said
Defense Secretary Donald H.
Rumsfeld.
Weinberger served as Presi-
dent Nixons budget director
and was given the nickname
Cap the Knife for his efforts to
slash government spending. Yet
Weinbergers best-known role
may have been as Reagans de-
fense secretary, when the clas-
sic cold warrior presided over a
cumulative $2 trillion in military
spending.
Determined to ensure U.S.
strategic strength to counter
the Soviet Union, Weinberger
pushed Congress to fund such
programs as the Strategic De-
fense Initiative, Midgetman and
MX missiles, B-1B bombers and
stealth aircraft.
But it was also during this
time that reports surfaced of
excesses at the Pentagon, from
$600 toilet seats to $400 ham-
mers. Cartoonists had a feld
day portraying Weinberger with
toilet seats around his neck.
In a Feb. 10, 1986, interview
with The Washington Post, Rea-
gan defended his defense secre-
tary. Thats the same price that
TWA and Delta and United pay.
It is a molded cover for the en-
tire toilet system. And, yes, it
does cost about that much.
Supporters contended the de-
fense buildup helped cause the
collapse of the Soviet Union.
His legacy is a strong and
free America, and for this and
for a lifetime of
selfess service,
a grateful nation
thanks him,
former frst lady
Nancy Reagan
said Tuesday.
A lifelong
Re p u b l i c a n ,
Wei nber ger s
early interest
in politics and
government sparked by his
father, a lawyer led him to the
Pentagon and White House.
But his work also led to a
trouble federal felony charges
stemming from his alleged role
in the sale of weapons to Iran to
fnance secret, illegal aid to the
Nicaraguan Contras.
The arms-for-hostages af-
fair poisoned the closing years
of Reagans administration and
permanently stained the reputa-
tions of the insiders involved.
In one of the frst President
Bushs fnal offcial acts after
his 1992 loss to Bill Clinton, he
granted Christmas Eve pardons
to Weinberger and fve others
accused in the affair. Bush was
Reagans vice president.
Weinberger, 75 at the time,
had been scheduled to stand
trial in less than two weeks on
charges that he concealed thou-
sands of pages of his handwrit-
ten notes from congressional
investigators and prosecutors.
Hed earlier rejected indepen-
dent counsel Lawrence Walshs
plea-bargain offer to testify
against his longtime friends and
colleagues including Reagan
and plead guilty to a misde-
meanor.
Wei nberger
had said he was
innocent of all
the charges and
considered the
indictment a
political attack.
After the
pardon was an-
nounced, Walsh
alleged that the
I r a n - Co n t r a
cover-up, which has continued
for more than six years, has now
been completed.
Weinbergers son said Tues-
day, My father was just a world
diplomat, a No. 1 great Ameri-
can patriot. He always stayed
the course. He always had be-
liefs, he held to those beliefs.
In 1989, Weinberger, a self-
described frustrated newspa-
perman he was president of
the Harvard Crimson joined
Forbes to become the magazines
fourth publisher. In 1993 he was
named chairman of Forbes Inc.
Weinberger occasionally
spoke out on current affairs in
recent years. In 1996, he criti-
cized then-Defense Secretary
William J. Perry for refusing to
announce publicly that the U.S.
would defend Taiwan if China
fred missiles at the island.
He told a Nebraska group in
1999 that despite victories in
the Cold War and Gulf War, the
United States still faced threats
Peace alone is not enough.
Peace can even mean slavery
sometimes. Peace and freedom
is what we have to have, Wein-
berger said.
In 1983, he argued that a
force of U.S. Marines stationed
at Beiruts airport was too small
and lightly armed, calling them
a disaster waiting to happen.
On Oct. 22, 1983, 241 Marines
and sailors were killed in at-
tacks on the barracks.
In an interview with PBS
Frontline in late September
2001, Weinberger said, The fact
that I had been warning against
this very thing didnt give me
any slight satisfaction, I can as-
sure of that. It was terrible to be
proven right under such horrible
circumstances.
Born Aug. 18, 1917, in San
Francisco, Weinberger attended
Harvard, graduating in 1938 and
getting his law degree from Har-
vard in 1941. He served in the
infantry in the Pacifc in World
War II.
He began his political career
in 1952 in the California Leg-
islature, where he took on and
cleaned up a corrupt state liquor
commission.
Weinberger, who called him-
self a fscal Puritan and be-
lieved budgets should always be
balanced, frst demonstrated his
budget-trimming talents in the
late 1960s.

Cold War-era defense secretary dies
Moussaoui role
in 9/11 clouded
t war on terror
By MatthEW Barakat
The AssociATed Press
ALEXANDRIA, Va. Two
more high-ranking al-Qaida op-
eratives cast doubt on whether
Zacarias Moussaoui was in-
volved in the Sept. 11, 2001, at-
tacks, with one portraying him
as a misft who refused to follow
orders, in testimony Tuesday at
his death penalty trial.
The testimony of both was
read to the jury, in one case be-
cause the witness is a captive
whom the U.S. government did
not want to appear in court.
One terrorist, identifed as
Sayf al-Adl, a senior member of
al-Qaidas military committee,
stated sometime between Sept.
1, 2001, and late July 2004, that
Moussaoui was a confrmed ji-
hadist but was absolutely not go-
ing to take part in the Sept. 11,
2001, mission. The 9/11 Com-
mission reported that the U.S.
had recovered from a safehouse
in Pakistan a letter written by al-
Adl describing the various can-
didates considered for the Sept.
11 attacks.
The other Waleed bin
Attash, often known simply as
Khallad is considered the
mastermind of the 2000 suicide
attack on the USS Cole and an
early planner of the Sept. 11,
2001, plot. He said he knew of
no part that Moussaoui was to
have played in the 9/11 attacks.
Khallad was captured in April
2003.
Their testimony backs up
the claims of Khalid Shaikh
Mohammed, chief organizer
of the 9/11 attacks. He said
in testimony read to the jury
Monday that Moussaoui had
nothing to do with the plot but
was to have been used for a
second wave of attacks distinct
from Sept. 11.
Moussaoui said for the frst
time Monday that he was sup-
posed to pilot a ffth plane in the
9/11 plot and attack the White
House. He had previously de-
nied a role in 9/11 and claimed
to be part of a different plot.
The defense introduced an
array of written testimony from
these captives that was read to
the jurors in an effort to under-
cut Moussaouis dramatic tes-
timony Monday that he was to
hijack a ffth plane on Sept. 11
and fy it into the White House.
His lawyers were trying to undo
damage he might have done to
himself when he testifed against
their wishes.
Khallad portrayed Moussaoui
as something of a loose cannon
during a trip to Malaysia in
2000, where he met members of
a radical group affliated with al-
Qaida. Khallad said Moussaoui
breached security measures and
al-Qaida protocol.
For example, he called Khal-
lad daily, despite instructions to
call only in an emergency, to the
point where Khallad turned his
cell phone off.
Another witness, Mustafa
Ahmed al-Hawsawi, said he
had seen Moussaoui at an al-
Qaida guesthouse in Kandahar,
Afghanistan, in the frst half of
2001, but was never introduced
to him or conducted operations
with him.

The recent coaching hirings of
Mike Anderson at Missouri and
Bob Huggins at Kansas State
should come as a welcome sur-
prise to Kansas basketball fans.
The Border Showdown will be
a lot more interesting in the com-
ing years, because Missouri fnally
got something right. The school
hired a proven coach who can
take the basketball program to the
next level. Anderson took Univer-
sity of Alabama-Birmingham to
the NCAA tournament in each of
his last three seasons as the teams
coach. Missouri hasnt been to the
tournament since 2002.
Andersons stated goal at his
frst press conference last week
was to win a national title with
the Tigers. You know what they
say: Shoot for the moon, and
even if you miss youll land
amongst the stars.
Missouri avoided messing the
whole thing up by retaining ath-
letics director Mike Alden after
administrators met, allegedly to
discuss his future. The brass at
Missouri would have looked ri-
diculous had it fred Alden after al-
lowing him to hire its new coach.
As for Kansas State, the Wild-
cats took a chance when they
picked Huggins to try to lead
their program out of basketball
purgatory. Huggins question-
able past made hiring him a risk,
but his success on the court is
tough to argue with. He led Cin-
cinnati to 14 consecutive trips to
the NCAA tournament before he
was canned in 2005 after numer-
ous player arrests, a DUI and the
teams 0.0 graduation rate.
After treading water for six
years under Jim Wooldridge, the
Wildcats will hope to return to the
success they enjoyed when going
to the NCAA tournament on a
consistent basis in the mid-to-
late 1980s. With a great recruiter
like Huggins in the fold, the Cats
should give the Jayhawks plenty
of tough battles in the future.

Known for regarding Kansas
State and Missouri as major ri-
vals, the Kansas baseball team
sees No. 13 Wichita State as its
main in-state foe.
Theyre always thinking that
theyre better than us, sopho-
more second baseman Ryne
Price said.
The teams will face off for the
59th time tonight at 7, continu-
ing a series heavily dominated
in the past by Wichita State (21-
5, 1-2 Missouri Valley Confer-
ence), which leads the all-time
series 38-20.
Kansas (17-10, 2-4 Big 12
Conference) showed improve-
ment last year. In four meetings,
the Jayhawks split the series
with the Shockers, two games
apiece.
I think everybody gets up
for this game, sophomore out-
felder Brock Simpson said. Its
kind of a battle of the best team
in Kansas. Its a great in-state ri-
valry. We get just as up for Wich-
ita State as we do for any series
in the Big 12.
Junior right-
hander Brendan
McNamara (0-0,
3.86 ERA) will
take the mound
for the Jayhawks
after tossing a
pair of score-
less innings in
Kansass victory
against No. 3
Nebraska last Sunday. Opposite
him will be sophomore lefty Max
Hutson (3-0, 3.06 ERA) for the
Shockers.
With the Missouri series
looming this weekend, Kansas
coach Ritch Price will have his
starter on a pitch count and,
in the event senior closer Don
Czyz is needed, he will only be
called upon for one inning.
The reality of it is that weve
got to win the series against Mis-
souri, Price said.
That doesnt mean he will
overlook tonights game by any
means. Price mentioned that
his teams success in midweek
games would determine wheth-
er Kansas would make a trip to
the NCAA tournament in June.
Wichita State, the most suc-
cessful baseball program in the
nation over the past 29 years,
would be a tough team to over-
look anyway.
Second baseman Damon
Sublett entered the Shockers
game last night against the No.
10 Arkansas Razorbacks on
an 11-game hitting streak. The
sophomore has led the offense
with a .435 batting average and
22 RBI.

Playing on Naismith Court is
a dream of many KU students,
but only a reality to a select few.
Tonight, players from eight
intramural basketball teams
will join that prestigious group
when they face off in one of four
championship games.
Kurt Schooley, director of in-
tramurals, said Allen Fieldhouse
has been the intramural champi-
onship venue for the past eight
years, even before he held his
current position.
They are very helpful, we
pay minimal expenses, School-
ey said. Theyve been great to
work with.
The frst game will tip-off
tonight at 7. The fnal game is
scheduled for 10 p.m. Games
generally last an hour.
At 9 p.m., Phi Psi OHB and Del-
ta Chi will play for the mens greek
championship, in a game that is
likely to garner the most attention
and attract the biggest crowd.
Its going to be awesome to
have all of both of our houses
there supporting us with a place
to sit in the stands, Lee Iverson,
Manhattan senior and Delta Chi
player, said.
Delta Chi advanced to the
championship game after win-
ning Monday nights semifnal
match-up against Sigma Alpha
Epsilon. Delta Chi won 40-32 in
a close game.
Phi Psi OHBs performance
was a little more convincing on
Monday. It defeated Delta Upsi-
lon 1, 53-34, in the semifnals to
get to the championship game.
Ryan Harms, Lenexa junior
and Phi Psi OHB player, said
the mens greek championship
game tonight would likely fea-
ture staggering defense.
Weve got a really great post
game and get most of the re-
bounds and up front, we play
great in-your-face defense.
Harms said.
Iverson said Delta Chi would
rely on its athletic ability when
it tried to shut down Phi Psi
OHBs offense.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. For
Serena Settlemier, throwing a
shutout the first game wasnt
enough.
She helped Kansas at the
plate as well with a home run
in the first inning and a grand
slam in the second inning of
Kansas 19-0 smothering of
UMKC Tuesday night. Kansas
won the first game as well,
8-0, with Settlemier on the
mound.
I do well when I relax and
dont think about the pitches
being thrown, Settlemier
said. We experienced slow-
er pitching than we are used
to and I just thought about
keeping my weight back and
getting my hands through the
ball.
Kansas softball coach Tracy
Bunge said the team found its
confidence late in the first
game, which carried over to
the second game of the dou-
bleheader in Kansas City,
Mo.
When Serena Settlemier,
who is on fire right now,
comes out and hits a two-run
home run, it
lets everyone
relax, Bunge
said. When
you have a
good relaxed
hitter and a
pitcher throw-
ing around
the zone, good
things are go-
ing to happen
for the offen-
sive team.
Se t t l e mi e r
(10-4) pitched
a complete
game in game one, with 10
strikeouts. Bunge said Settle-
mier did a good job of mixing
the speeds up of her pitches.
We were a little bit tight of-
fensively early in that game,
Bunge said. But after a shaky
beginning on the mound, Ser-
ena settled down after that
and threw a good ballgame.
The Jayhawks (17-16) be-
gan the second game in con-
vincing fashion. They had
11 runs after
two innings.
S e t t l e m i e r
had the grand
slam, and ju-
nior pitcher
Kassie Hum-
phreys helped
her own cause
with a home
run of her
own.
F r e s h ma n
third baseman
Val Chapple
and senior out-
fielder Ashley
Goodrich added a home run
in the fourth. Goodrich then
added a grand slam in the
fifth inning.
Everyone contributed to-
day, it was a team effort,
Settlemier said. It is a good
confidence builder to go into
conference since our confer-
ence is so tough.
The Kangaroos (5-22) never
answered the Jayhawks stam-
pede of runs. In two games,
Kansas outscored UMKC
27-0. The second game was
called after the fifth inning
due to the run rule.
Humphreys pitched for the
first two innings of the sec-
ond game and did not allow a
run or a hit.
Freshman pitcher Valerie
George completed the game,
only giving up one hit.
She came in and threw well,
threw strikes and went after
hitters and did a lot of good
things, Bunge said. I am very
satisfed with two shutouts from
our pitching staff.
Kansas will be back in ac-
tion Thursday against Creigh-
ton in Lawrence. First pitch
of the doubleheader is slated
for 2 p.m.

night. Humpreys
earned her
seventh win of
the campaign
by pitching two
innings and
striking out two
batters.

COLUMBIA, Mo. New
Missouri basketball coach Mike
Anderson will earn a minimum
of $850,000 annually over the
next fve years as long as he
agrees to be a loyal employee
and doesnt bad-mouth the
school.
Those clauses are just some
of the conduct requirements
spelled out in the 22-page em-
ployment contract, which was
signed Monday and released to
The Associated Press on Tues-
day through the states public
records laws.
Anderson, who comes to
Missouri after four years as Ala-
bama-Birmingham coach, will
also be expected to:
Maintain a mature and ra-
tional attitude, keep emotions in
control and downplay defeats;
Establish and maintain a
frequent and systematic program
of personal communication with
the universitys administration,
faculty, staff and student body;
Keep public statements
complimentary to the athletic
program and the university;
Make a minimum of 30
public appearances annually at
booster lunches, alumni dinners
and similar community events.
No such behavioral require-
ments, nor a stipulated mini-
mum number of public appear-
ances, are found in the contracts
of either Missouri football coach
Gary Pinkel or Andersons pre-
decessor, Quin Snyder, who re-
signed in mid-February with six
regular season games remain-
ing.
Andersons base salary is
less than the $1.015 million
a year Snyder earned before
he left during his seventh sea-
son at Missouri. But the new
coachs contract is loaded with
more incentives than Snyder
had, including an extra $10,000
for reaching at least 20 wins
against Division I opponents
and $25,000 for drawing at least
10,000 paying fans on average
to Mizzou Arena.
Anderson will be allowed up
to $20,000 each year in discre-
tionary expenses. He receives a
free membership to the Coun-
try Club of Missouri and the
use of two courtesy cars donat-
ed by local dealersone fewer
than Snyder had.
Should he reach all outlined
goals, Andersons yearly salary
with incentives would climb
to $1.465 milliona sizable
increase from his base annual
salary of $600,000 at UAB.
University offcials were not
available Tuesday to discuss
the contract.
Among the criticisms of
Snyder, who came to Mis-
souri after serving as Mike
Krzyzewskis top assistant at
Duke, was his inaccessibility.
Critics complained that Sny-
der, a native of Washington
state, didnt blend in well in
the Midwest, unlike his suc-
cessor Norm Stewart, a Mis-
souri native.
An external investigation of
the circumstance surrounding
Snyders resignation attributed
some of the tension between
athletics director Mike Alden
and Snyderby the time Sny-
der quit the two werent even
on speaking termsto Snyders
resistance to public appearanc-
es in which Alden thought he
should participate.

Jayhawks successful
on opening weekend
of outdoor season
The outdoor track and
field season began for Kan-
sas this past weekend at the
Tulsa Duels meet.
The Jayhawks were
specifically dominant in the
field events. Senior thrower
and indoor All-American
Sheldon Battle won the dis-
cus event. Sophomore Cody
Roberts placed right behind
him in second. Battles toss
was 177-7, while Roberts
was 177 feet.
Senior Brett Terp won the
high jump event with a leap of
6-8 3/4.
On the track, sophomore
Julius Jiles won the 110-me-
ter hurdles with a time of
14.12.
Senior Denita Young threw
154-6 for a frst place result in
the womens javelin. Her effort,
combined with that of junior
Abby Emsick, who notched
a victory in the discus event,
led the way for the Jayhawk
women.
Wrapping up the day, the
Kansas womens 1,600-meter
A relay team won its race with
a time of 3:45.32.
The team will compete next
on April 6 in Austin, Texas, at the
Texas Relays.

INDIANAPOLIS Oklaho-
ma coach Kelvin Sampson and
Indiana were completing con-
tract details Tuesday that would
make him the Hoosiers next
basketball coach, a person close
to the negotiations told The As-
sociated Press.
The deal was expected to be
announced shortly, according to
the source, who spoke on condi-
tion of anonymity because talks
were not complete.
The Sampson-to-Indiana
story was frst reported by
ESPN earlier in the day. Samp-
son spent the last 12 seasons at
Oklahoma, re-establishing the
Sooners as a national contender.
This year, Oklahoma went 20-9
and lost in the frst round of the
NCAA tournament to Wiscon-
sin-Milwaukee.
Oklahoma offcials declined
to comment. Telephone mes-
sages left for Indiana athletic
director Rick Greenspan and
spokesman Pete Rhoda were
not immediately returned.
The 50-year-old Sampson would
replace Mike Davis, who an-
nounced Feb. 16 he was resigning
after leading the Hoosiers the past
six seasons. Davis went 115-79, be-
came the frst Indiana coach to win
20 games in each of his frst three
seasons and led the Hoosiers to the
2002 national championship game
just two seasons after Bob Knight
was fred.
But when Davis resigned last
month, he said he believed Indi-
ana needed a former Hoosier to
unify the pro-Knight and anti-
Knight factions.
Greenspan apparently took a
different approach. He turned
down the opportunity to lure Io-
was Steve Alford, a former All-
American who led the Hoosiers
to the 1987 national title.
Sampsons name surfaced late
last week after the Sooners were
upset in the tournament. His
hiring would give the Hoosiers
a widely respected coach and
proven recruiter. He has been
successful in two major confer-
ences, the Pac-10 and Big 12,
once served as president of the
National Association of Basket-
ball Coaches and has coached
on fve national teams.
In 12 seasons with the Soon-
ers, Sampson went 279-109 and
led the Sooners to 12 straight
postseason appearances, includ-
ing their frst Final Four trip in
more than a decade. His career
record is 455-257. It was Davis
Hoosiers that upset Sampsons
Sooners to reach the 2002 na-
tional championship game.

Sublett also serves as a relief
pitcher and has been equally le-
thal in that role. On the mound,
he leads the staff with fve saves
and a perfect 0.00 ERA. He has
not allowed a run, earned or
not, in his career as a Shocker.
Wichita State has showed
signs of weakness, however. It
dropped its opening Missouri
Valley series to Southern Illinois
last weekend. Nonetheless, the
Shockers, led by coach Gene
Stephenson, are a force to be
reckoned with.
Its a huge series for us
and I think it always will be,
Price said. And I have incred-
ible respect for what Gene
Stephensons done in his 30
years at Wichita. Hes the first
coach to take a cold weather
team and make them a nation-
al power.
For Kansas, the absence of
starters Ryne Price and senior
outfelder Matt Baty has forced
the Jayhawks to fnd replace-
ments. Simpson and freshman
frst baseman Preston Land led
the offense last weekend in Ne-
braska.
Land was the only hitter to get
a hit in every game of the series,
while Simpson was the catalyst
behind the Jayhawks 7-6 victory
on Sunday, going 4-for-5 with a
triple.
Ive been seeing the ball
well even though I seem to get
down 0-2 in every at bat, Land
said. When youre seeing the
ball well, youre hitting the ball
well.
Tonights game, the frst of
two this season between the
teams, will have the feeling of a
Big 12 game, but with a little in-
state pride on the line.
Were trying to get to their
level, Price said. We want to
be the best team in the state
just like they do.

Injuries
continued from page 1B
Although Kansas won all
three games in the Nashville,
Tenn., tournament, the loss of
Ryne Price and Baty was much
more important. In 12 games,
Price had already blasted three
home runs and tallied 13 RBI.
At the leadoff spot for 13
games, Baty was hitting .300
with four doubles and three
stolen bases.
I would imagine it would
be next week, coach Ritch
Price said of the return of the
two starters. Were going to
take it easy on them practice-
wise and make sure we dont
have any setbacks. If we can
get them back on the field by
next week, it would be out-
standing.
But both players are expect-
ing a quicker return. Ryne Price
talked of possibly returning for
this weekends series against
Missouri, while Baty discussed
being tonights designated hitter
against Wichita State.
Batys doctor will determine,
and tonights lineup will reveal
whether the seniors optimistic
predictions were correct. Baty
said on Tuesday that his re-
covery was three to four weeks
ahead of schedule.
Its just been prayer after
prayer for me, Baty said. I
serve a God that can heal me
just like that. I just give him all
the glory for healing me.
Batys positive outlook and
unwavering faith may be the
magic behind his speedy re-
covery. Ritch Prices respect
for his center fielder is obvi-
ous, as he played with a bad-
ly hurt knee for much of the
2005 season.
He has incredible faith,
Price said of the senior whos
been with him each of his
four years at Kansas. Hes
one of the strongest individu-
als I have ever been associ-
ated with.
Its more than possible the
pair of starters will return to the
team together.
Well see how it goes today,
Ryne Price said. It should be
pretty cool.

Huggins said he was excited
to be a part of the Kansas State
program and felt that the situa-
tion was very similar to when he
took over at Cincinnati. Consid-
ering the success he had with the
Bearcats, Wildcat fans should be
very excited about that statement.
Kansas will always have the
premier basketball program
among the three schools in this
area no question about it.
Kansass tradition is far greater
than that of either Missouri or
Kansas State. With these new
coaches roaming the sidelines
in Columbia and Manhattan,
however, the match-ups between
the schools will certainly have a
more exciting favor than in re-
cent years. Before you know it,
all three teams will be regulars in
the NCAA tournament and will
be battling each other for the Big
12 title year in and year out.

Fieldhouse
continued from page 1B
We are quicker than most
teams, so we score a lot off of
fast breaks and get easy points,
Iverson said.
This should be an interesting
facet of the game to keep an eye
on, with Phi Psi OHBs effcient
outside shooting game.
An attention-grabbing individ-
ual match-up will be between Phi
Psi OHBs Harms and Delta Chis
Grant Creighton, Englewood,
Colo., senior. They both lead
their teams on the foor by setting
the pace offensively and playing a
hard-nosed style of defense.
Creighton said he has had the
pleasure of playing in Allen Field-
house three or four times before.
Harms said his teams main
goal since the beginning of the
season was to get to play in the
feldhouse. Tonight these teams
will get the chance to play under
one of the most storied basket-
ball venues in the nation.

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla.
After throwing fve effective
innings against the Baltimore
Orioles, Jeff Suppan still had
one item of business to tend to.
With his upper body virtu-
ally encased in ice, the right-
hander slipped on a warmup
jacket and gave his parents
a hug before they headed to
the airport for a flight back to
California.
It was a good day for Suppan,
even if the St. Louis Cardinals
ended up losing 3-2 Tuesday.
In his ffth start this spring,
Suppan allowed one run and fve
hits in fve innings. He struck
out fve and walked none.
My whole thing was staying
in the bottom part of the strike
zone, even though the winds
blowing in, he said. These
guys are a very good hitting
team. I got in some jams but was
able to minimize the damage, so
it felt really good.
He left the game with a 2-
1 lead, and his parents ended
their three-week visit before the
Cardinals gave away the lead.
Fortunately for Suppan, his
folks werent in Florida during his
frst spring training start a di-
saster against the New York Mets
in which he gave up nine runs
and nine hits in 1 1-3 innings.
Basically I was throwing fast-
balls and changeups, and I left
the ball up and they did what
good hitters do, he said. Every
game you look for improvement,
and from that frst game I had a
lot to improve on.
His performance against the
Orioles was his best one yet.
I fnally had a good cutter,
which really helped, Suppan
said. I still have one more start, a
minor league start. Im still build-
ing. The main thing is getting
mentally and physically ready for
the season, and Im close.
Suppan outpitched Orioles
starter Bruce Chen, who al-
lowed two runs and four hits in
six innings.
Baltimore pulled ahead with
a two-run eighth. Brian Roberts
hit a leadoff triple and scored on
a single by Luis Matos. Cardinals
second baseman Junior Spivey
then booted a potential double-
play grounder, and Miguel Te-
jada followed with a grounder
to second that Spivey picked up
and threw wildly to frst, allowing
Matos to score the go-ahead run.
Juan Encarnacion hit a two-run
homer for the Cardinals, who
managed only fve hits off four
Baltimore pitchers.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
MANHATTAN Monday
was raw and windy, overcast
and cold.
For all Ron Prince knew, it
could have been as hot and
muggy as those Fourth of July
celebrations he recalls from his
childhood in nearby Junction
City.
On the frst day of his frst
spring practice as head coach
at Kansas State, the weather
was just about the last thing on
the mind of the second-young-
est head coach in Division I-A
football.
What Prince has worked to-
ward and dreamed of almost
all his life has fnally arrived.
Snatched out of obscurity last
fall and named to replace the re-
tiring Bill Snyder, he is now the
man in charge.
He is the leader of the pro-
gram and he is what you want to
be when youre gone and every-
one is talking about you, said
Raheem Morris, the Wildcats
new defensive coordinator. He
hasnt laid down his legacy yet.
But he will.
The son of a discipline-mind-
ed career military man, Prince,
36, is following one of the great-
est legacies in Kansas State his-
tory. It was Snyder who resur-
rected the long-woeful program
in the early 90s and built it into
a national contender. When
Snyder retired last fall unexpect-
edly, the feld was renamed in his
honor and Prince was unknown
to just about any Kansas State
fan who did not have some tie
to Virginia.
But Prince knew what he
wanted, and now it is his.
You have so many moments
where youre trying to get to this
position and youre thinking
about it, he said Tuesday.
Ive thought about this thing
quite a bit so it was good to go
out and fnally get to do it. It
was a lot of fun.
Somebody said, `You
couldnt have asked for a better
day weather-wise. I didnt even
notice. As long as there wasnt
lightning, we were going to go
out there.
There is much to get done in
the 15 practice days that will
culminate on April 22 with the
annual Purple and White game.
Most critical is making sense
of the logjam at quarterback,
where no fewer than fve pos-
sibilities will compete. There
is starting experience in Dylan
Meier, Allen Webb and Allan
Evridge. Also certain to get at-
tention are two highly sought re-
cruits redshirt freshman Kev-
in Lopina and Josh Freeman,
a true freshman who broke his
verbal commitment to Nebraska
after Prince was hired.
Picking the right quarterback
could go a long way toward de-
ciding how successful Princes
frst years will be.
Its too early to say how
thats going to go, Prince said.
Im just as interested and ex-
cited as everybody else to fnd
out who is going to be the quar-
terback. There are obviously ca-
pable candidates, and I think its
going to be an exciting time for
everybody.
The two most visible people
are the head football coach and
the quarterback.
Starting on a good footing
is also important because the
Wildcats are coming off their
frst back-to-back losing seasons
since 1989-90, the outset of Sny-
ders storied turnaround. A new
coach and new staff must learn
their players, and vice versa.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
FORT MYERS, Fla. In-
felder Tony Graffanino was
claimed off waivers Tuesday by
the Kansas City Royals, return-
ing to the team that traded him
to the Boston Red Sox eight
months ago.
Its a place Im going where I
feel like Im wanted and I should
get decent playing time there,
Graffanino said. This wasnt a
good situation for me.
He batted .319 in 51 games
for the Red Sox after being trad-
ed July 19, then lost his second-
base job. Boston obtained Mark
Loretta from San Diego on Dec.
7 for catcher Doug Mirabelli.
Although Kansas City has
second baseman Mark Grudziel-
anek, Graffanino thinks he
should get more playing time
elsewhere. But he loved his time
in Boston.
It was probably one of, if not
my most favorite place Ive ever
played, said Graffanino, who
also has been with Atlanta, Tam-
pa Bay and the Chicago White
Sox. I loved every minute of it,
playing in that stadium (Fenway
Park) with those fans.
Graffanino had talked with
several teams after last season
and was surprised when Bos-
ton offered him salary arbitra-
tion. That meant any other team
that signed him would have had
to give the Red Sox a top draft
choice.
All the teams that were talk-
ing to me just pulled back,
Graffanino said early this
month. He agreed to a one-year,
$2.05 million deal that avoided
an arbitration hearing but was
told early in spring training that
the Red Sox would try to send
him elsewhere.
I dont know about soured,
Graffanino said. Ideally, I
would have liked for some-
thing to have been different and
worked out a little sooner and
got me into a place where I had
a chance to maybe earn a spot
on a starting position, but what

Sam Patrick/KANSAN
ARIES (March 21-April 19) HHHH
Your energy could be more depleted
than you realize. Still, if you focus, you
will experience extraordinary success.
Think carefully and decide what you want
to do in order to gain professionally. If
you are single, open up to new thought
processes.
Tonight: A friend proves inspirational and
resourceful.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HH
Right now, your perspective could be off
and trigger a sense of negativity. No one
knows better than you what is necessary
to make your life work. You might feel like
a partnership is changing in front of your
eyes.
Tonight: Easy does it.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHH You
might be overwhelmed by your perspec-
tive, as well as by how someone is acting
or behaving. You could be a bit uptight, as
others are reacting strongly. Give yourself
and those around you space.
Tonight: Easy does it.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHH
Everything that is occurring could be telling
you to slow down. Though you might be
sure you are on the right path, todays
happening could indicate otherwise. Be a
cynic, and ultimately you will be better off.
Tonight: A must appearance.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)HHH You might
sense changes in the offng. Your ability
to grasp what might be coming down the
path could be defned by your imagination.
Dont worry -- just be ready to get off your
pedestal and prepare to fex.
Tonight: Relax to a movie or an exotic meal.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHH Work
with others, but dont decide that anything
is written in stone. In the next few weeks,
you might fnd that what you thought was a
given no longer is. Togetherness might not
be the same as what you visualized.
Tonight: Easy does it.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHHH
You might not be as sure of yourself as you
would like. Listen to feedback regarding
a partner. A relationship could be revised.
Consider your options with care in the
next few weeks. What you can count on is
change.
Tonight: Others need to have their say.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHH
Dont push yourself to do anything that
seems contrary or out of whack. Listen well
to someone you care about. He or she has a
different sense of what works than you do.
Consider a new health regime.
Tonight: Put your feet up.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
HHHH Pluto, the planet of transforma-
tion, is in your sign, drawing an array of
happenings and adventures. Today it does
a backward jig. For some of you, this event
might be diffcult. You can be sure that
something better is on the way.
Tonight: Let your imagination rock and roll.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHH
Somehow you might feel as if you are cut
off from others. However, if you go within
and hold up a mirror, you will see otherwise.
You might be seeing a situation a lot differ-
ently as a result. You could be happier, too.
Tonight: At home.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHH
You might discover much more about a
situation or friendship that you hold close to
your heart. Pushing and tugging right now
will be futile. Let information seep through
rather than judge.
Tonight: Visit with a pal.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHH
Refuse to commit to anything fnancially, or
you could regret the decision in the not so
distant future. You can have a far bigger say
in your fnancial development than you have
had in the past. Decide so now.
Tonight: Look at your bills.

6B THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN WEDNESDAY, MARCH 29, 2006 SPORTS
BY EMERY P. DALESIO
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
DURHAM, N.C. Amid
days of campus protests, Duke
University ofcials and police
awaited DNA test results on 46
members of the schools highly
ranked lacrosse team Tuesday
after an exotic dancer claimed
she was raped by some of the
players.
The case has roiled the
campus, raised racial tensions
and heightened antagonism
between the afuent students
at Duke, which costs about
$43,000 a year, and the city
of Durham, which has a large
population of poor people and
is about evenly divided between
white and black.
For even a college like
Duke, which is in the news a
lot, its not the way you want to
be known, said Philip Christ-
off, a 20-year-old freshman.
The rape was reported two
weeks ago. A woman told police
she and another dancer were
hired to perform at a March
13 private party at a home just
off campus. The dancer, a stu-
dent at North Carolina Central
University, told police she was
pulled into a bathroom, beat-
en, choked and raped by three
men.
No one has been charged.
Armed with
a judges order,
police took
DNA samples
with a cheek
swab from 46
of the lacrosse
teams 47 play-
ers last week.
The 47th player,
the only black
member of the
team, did not have to provide
DNA because the dancer said
her attackers were white.
I needed to have the in-
formation about who will be
charged, said District Attor-
ney Mike Nifong said. I feel
pretty condent that a rape oc-
curred.
Nifong said the team mem-
bers are standing together
and refusing to talk with in-
vestigators, and he warned he
may bring aiding-and-abetting
charges against some of the
players.
The alleged victim is black,
which has proved a source
of tension on
campus.
The circum-
stances of the
rape indicated
a deep racial
motivation for
some of the
things that were
done, Nifong
said. It makes
a crime that is
by its nature one of the most of-
fensive and invasive even more
so.
Angry over the team mem-
bers silence and the universitys
handling of the case, Durham
residents have demonstrated on
and off campus in the past few
days. They rallied outside the
house where the alleged attack
occurred, and gathered outside
of Duke provost Peter Langes
home, where they banged on
pots and pans until he emerged
to answer questions.
Lange said Monday that he
believes the students would be
well-advised to come forward.
They have chosen not to.
The district attorney said he
has asked for the state crime lab
to expedite DNA testing since
the semester at Duke ends in
about six weeks, after which he
fears students will scatter from
Dukes campus.
A lawyer representing sev-
eral lacrosse team members did
not immediately return calls
Tuesday.
The universitys athletic di-
rector forced the team to forfeit
two games because of under-
age drinking and the hiring of
dancers at the party. The losses
gave Duke, considered a na-
tional title contender before
the season began, a 6-4 record
with ve regular-season games
to go.
200-mph crash
kills IRL driver
CRIME
Stripper claims rape by three Duke athletes
Even the upper deck needs spring cleaning
BY MIKE HARRIS
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
The scarred, twisted remains
of Paul Danas No. 17 Panoz
race car lay under a tarp Monday
at Homestead-Miami Speedway,
the biggest clue in a mystery that
may never be solved.
Dana died Sunday after sus-
taining what ofcials described
as multiple trauma injuries
in a two-car crash during a
warmup for the season-open-
ing IRL IndyCar Series race at
Homestead.
The league plans to look into
the possible causes, but the only
thing the computers in Danas car
or the videotape of the crash
is likely to tell them is that the
rookie driver, with all of three
IRL races under his belt, kept his
foot on the gas until a few tenths
of a second before impact.
As for why, well the only
person who could likely have
answered that question was
Dana himself.
Ed Carpenters spinning car,
which had crashed seconds ear-
lier and glanced off a concrete
wall, had nearly come to a halt
when Dana suddenly appeared,
ying off turn two on the 1.5-
mile oval.
It appeared Dana never
slowed, bearing down like a
200-mph missile two hours
later, he was pronounced dead.
While Dana said he was 30 and
listed a 1975 birthday in media
guides, there were reports that
he was actually 32 and born two
years earlier.
The wreck left everyone won-
dering whether Dana even saw
the caution lights ashing along
the speedway walls, or heard the
words of his spotter, who team
ofcials say tried to warn of the
danger ahead.
For years, drivers with little
experience and sometimes
little talent have managed
to nd rides at the top level of
open-wheel racing by bringing
family money or a sponsor to
the table. And in a sport where
big dollar sponsors are few and
far between these days, buying
a ride has become just another
part of the game.
Dana wasnt rich, but he
found a way to live his dream of
racing cars. He worked at a vari-
ety of jobs, including mechanic,
racing instructor and marketing
representative to pay his way up
the racing ladder.
He even wrote about auto
racing for several national mag-
azines, including Autoweek and
Sports Illustrated.
But Dana, a savvy and glib
young man who didnt get seri-
ous about racing until he was
20, had found sponsorship in
Team Ethanol that he could
bring to a team. Thats how
he got his ride with Rahal Let-
terman Racing, one of the top
teams in the IRL.
He did have some success in
the Indy Pro Series, the step-
pingstone series to IndyCar, win-
ning one pole and one race and
nishing second in the champi-
onship in 2004. But anybody in
open-wheel racing will tell you
its a big step up from Indy Pro
to IndyCar.
Working with Team Ethanol,
Dana got an IndyCar ride in
2005 with Hemelgarn Racing.
At the Homestead opener, he
nished a career-best 10th.
Unlike the death of much-be-
loved NASCAR superstar Dale
Earnhardt in the 2001 Daytona
500, Danas tragic death did not
ignite national mourning or a
series of safety-related changes.

First freshman makes AP team
t ncaa womens basketball
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
All America womens team from left: LSUs Seimone Augustus, Rutgers Cappie Pondexter, North Carolinas Ivory Latta, Oklahomas Courtney Paris and
Baylors Sophia Young.
By ChuCk SChoffner
The AssociATed Press
In her frst college game,
Courtney Paris broke loose for
24 points and 10 rebounds in
only 20 minutes.
As it turned out, she was just
getting warmed up.
Four months and 33 double-
doubles later, the Oklahoma
center has become the frst
freshman selected for The As-
sociated Press All-America team
in womens basketball.
LSU senior Seimone Augus-
tus was the lone unanimous
choice on the team released
Tuesday, and the only frst-team
repeater from last year. Also
chosen were North Carolina ju-
nior Ivory Latta, Rutgers senior
Cappie Pondexter and Baylor
senior Sophia Young.
Augustus was a frst-team
pick on all 46 ballots from the
national media panel that votes
in the weekly Top 25, receiving
the maximum 230 points. Latta
had 39 frst-team votes and 210
points, while Pondexter had 36
and 207, Paris 30 and 184 and
Young 25 and 183.
Since the AP began selecting
womens All-America teams in
the 1994-95 season, four fresh-
men had made the second and
third teams, including Augustus,
a third-team pick in 2003.
A season flled with eye-pop-
ping numbers enabled the 6-
foot-4 Paris daughter of for-
mer NFL lineman Bubba Paris
to break into the frst fve.
Its pretty weird to think that
last year youre in high school,
and now you get to college a few
months later and you get to be
with Ivory and all these other
guys, Paris said. Its humbling
to be considered in the same
group.
Tennessees freshman sen-
sation, Candace Parker, was
voted to the second team, along
with Dukes Monique Currie,
Ohio States Jessica Davenport,
Stanfords Candice Wiggins and
Marylands Crystal Langhorne.
The third team included
LSUs Sylvia Fowles, Georgias
Tasha Humphrey, DePauls
Khara Smith, Utahs Kim Smith
and Temples Candice Dupree.
Paris showed up at Oklahoma
with her twin sister, Ashley, and
their impact was stunning. After
fnishing 17-13 last season and
barely making the NCAA tour-
nament, the Sooners became
the frst team to go 16-0 in the
Big 12 and were 31-5 overall.
Without a doubt, shes
changed the complexion of ev-
erything, Oklahoma coach
Sherri Coale said.
During the regular season,
Paris averaged 21.4 points, led
the nation in rebounding (15.1)
and made 61 percent of her
shots. She reached double fg-
ures in points and rebounds in
all but three games and became
the frst NCAA womens player
with 700 points, 500 rebounds
and 100 blocks in a season.
Paris also broke a 21-year-old
NCAA record with her 539 re-
bounds.
Courtneys consistency has
been uncanny, Coale said.
Theres no other way to de-
scribe it. Weve come to learn
that one way or another, shes
going to get it done.
Augustus has played so well
and so consistently that she has
become everyones All-Ameri-
can. She was a unanimous se-
lection last season, when she
was the national player of the
year, and was unanimous on the
preseason team last November.
Her 23-point regular-season
average led the nation and she
shot 57.8 percent, including 51.5
percent from 3-point range.
I feel good about it, Augus-
tus said. I think Ive worked
hard enough to be deserving of
this. Its just a joy being able to
go into other states and have
people know who you are and
appreciate what youre doing for
the womens game.
Latta, North Carolinas effer-
vescent 5-6 point guard, aver-
aged 18.4 points and fve assists
in leading the Tar Heels to the
ACC regular-season and tourna-
ment championships and their
frst No. 1 ranking.
I dont really look at what
Ive done individually Latta
said. Were just a total package
as a team.
But it wouldnt be the same
team without her.

The AssociATed Press
JUPITER, Fla. In mid-Jan-
uary, when Jim Edmonds mused
about getting old and wondering
whether any team would want
him after his latest contract ex-
pires after the 2007 season, it
sounded like a joke.
After all, although his 2005
offensive numbers were his
worst in fve seasons with the
St. Louis Cardinals, his off-year
still added up to 29 homers and
89 RBIs, he won his eighth Gold
Glove and started in the All-Star
Game.
But when he appeared at the
annual St. Louis baseball writ-
ers dinner this winter, he said
he was unable to pick up a glass
of water because of persistent
numbness in his right forearm
and hand that still bothers him.
I was scared at frst, Ed-
monds said. I thought, Oh, itll
go away and for two months it
wouldnt. Shaking hands, stu-
pid stuff like that, I was pretty
sore.
An MRI exam last week
showed that infammation near
a nerve was causing the problem.
Its an injury that Edmonds, 35,
can play through, judging from
his performance since seeing the
doctor.
On Thursday, the Cardinals
lone outfelder holdover had two
hits and two RBIs, and robbed
J.D. Drew of a home run at Vero
Beach against the Dodgers.
How did he look to you?
manager Tony La Russa asked a
reporter. Im sure hes got some
soreness, but hes able to play
and he needs to play.
On Friday, Edmonds hit his
frst home run of the spring off
the Mets Tom Glavine, even
though he said he had experi-
enced more forearm soreness
than usual. On Saturday he ran
a streak to six consecutive hits,
continuing to warm up for the
April 3 opener at Philadelphia.
He was hitting .500 in 26
at-bats with a homer and four
doubles. Earlier in the spring
he was sidelined by a foot in-
jury.
Both he and the Cardinals
believe the injury to his glove
side stems from a new offsea-
son weight-lifting regimen. Ed-
monds, whos expected to bat
cleanup much of the time this
season, said it slowly snuck up
on him.
There really wasnt one
thing, it was just over time
and trying to do some differ-
ent workouts, Edmonds said.
They say its kind of common
to get tennis elbow, and when
youre old like me. ...
In midwinter, Edmonds was
having so much trouble that
he few to St. Louis to have it
checked out.
I had it looked at kind of
under the radar and got a corti-
sone shot and some medicine,
and it made it go away for
about two weeks, Edmonds
said. And then it came right
back.
The pain has become man-
ageable, the worst symptom of
which is tingling in his fngers.
The most important aspect is it
does not affect his swing.
He almost feels bad talking
about it. Hed rather this injury
to be below the radar, too.
Its getting a lot of attention
because I had to get an MRI,
Edmonds said. Its not really
that bad.
Im not really concerned
baseball-wise, I just would like
to have it feel normal or some-
what normal.
Edmonds estimates hes un-
dergone about 60 MRI exams
in the last decade, most of them
dealing with aching shoulders
and knees. This spring alone,
hes had two such procedures.
Still, hell play through the
pain, trusting team doctors
who say he wont aggravate the
condition.
