The sTudenT vOice since 1904

Francisco Gutierrez and his
crew of the Papalotzin project
decided to stop in Lawrence
for a few days on their way to
Mexico, following the annual
monarch butterfy migration.
Gutierrez is flming a docu-
mentary to raise awareness
about the monarchs decreasing
habitat as he and his crew fy an
ultralight plane painted like
a monarch from Canada to
Mexico.
The crew displayed the plane
to the public yesterday at Foley
Hall, 2021 Constant Ave. Guti-
errez also answered questions
from the crowd.
The project came to Law-
rence to flm a monarch-tagging
demonstration and an interview
with Orley Taylor, director of
Monarch Watch and professor
of ecology, for the documentary.
Monarch Watch has been tag-
ging monarchs since 1992 and
has tagged about half a billion
since it started, Taylor said.
Gutierrez started the trip to
make the documentary in an at-
tempt to raise awareness about
illegal logging decreasing the
monarchs habitat.
Diane Sanders, Lawrence
resident, went to see the proj-
ect because of her interest in
monarchs. She said she thought
everyone in Lawrence should
have been there.
The plane is just marvelous,
she said.
Gutierrez, the pilot and direc-
tor of the project, has been fy-
ing since he was 14 years old.
He said it took him fve years to
save enough money to pay for
the plane, which was made in
England.
The plane has 80 horse pow-
er, can travel at speeds up to
100 kilometers per hour, weighs
190 kilograms and costs about
$35,000.
Gutierrez said he few the
plane from Virginia to Kansas in
two days.
Taylor welcomed the fve-
person crew to Lawrence, and
Monarch Watch played host to
the visit. The crew saw Foley
Hall, the butterfy garden behind
Foley and the Baker Wetlands.
By yesterday evening they
were ready to crash, Taylor
said.
Taylor said that last year the
monarch butterfy population
was at an all-time low.
He said the sanctuary areas in
Mexico were diffcult to protect
because each tree was worth ap-
proximately $300.
Loggers come from outside
corporations, and local law
enforcement cant do much to
enforce the law because the
loggers are armed, Taylor said.
He said there was a conflict
between the local citizens of
the area and
the loggers,
who are re-
ferred to as
mafioso by
the locals.
Gut i er r ez
said the for-
ests in Mexico
where mon-
archs live
during win-
ter must be
healthy. The
trees act as a
canopy, he said. If trees are cut
down, a hole in the forest is cre-
ated. Then when a cold front
comes, the wind travels inside
and kills the butterfies.
Every form of life has the
right to live, Gutierrez said.
Gutierrez said he wanted
to raise awareness because he
lived 10 kilometers from the
sanctuaries in Mexico and
saw the monarchs when he
drove past.
He said he wanted his kids
to see the butterfies when they
grow up, and if illegal logging
wasnt stopped, they might not
be able to.
Gregory Allen, director of
the documentary, said the
film would contain three
chapters: the scientific study,
the adventure and the aware-
ness process.
This trip in itself creates
awareness and knowledge of
the documentary, Allen said.
Gutierrez said he and his crew
planned to rest in Lawrence for
another day, then head south
to their next stop in Oklahoma
City, Okla.
There is a relationship be-
tween the monarchs and our
trip, Gutierrez said. Monarchs
need a habitat and food to pass
the night, and so do we.

Katrina washes out
funding for other aid

Volunteer programs and United Way do-
nations are feeling the competition from the
efforts to raise money for Hurricane Katrina
relief, but KU coordinators and United Way
leaders say they still hope to meet the needs
of the community.
Tim Van Leer, KU United Way cam-
paign chairman and executive director of
the Lied Center, said the hurricane relief
was affecting the KU campaign.
Collections at KU football games that
would have gone to the Universitys Unit-
ed Way campaign instead went to the
American Red Crosss Hurricane Katrina
relief.
Even though the three games dona-
tions totaled about $3,000 dollars of the
$230,000 goal, Van Leer said it was im-
portant for the students to be aware of
local needs.

Changes made to the Jubi-
lee Caf at the beginning of
the year have forced the caf
to divert funding from food to
administrative costs.
The caf used Canterbury
House, 1116 Louisiana, as a
home for interns, offces and
for food storage.
But on Jan. 10, the Epis-
copalian Diocese decided to
quit holding services there and
remove it as part of the cam-
pus ministry of the diocese.
The chaplain of the house and
founder of the Jubilee Caf,
Rev. Joe Alford, lost his job.
Alford said he would con-
tinue to work at the caf until he
found another position. The caf
is searching for a replacement for
the director of Jubilee Caf.
The caf continues to oper-
ate, but volunteers are raising
money now to cover new costs.
Alford said money from grants
the caf received that would
have gone toward food would
now be used to rent offces, pay
for phone service, acquire offce
supplies and fund a housing sti-
pend for the cafs intern.
Alford said the losses
equalled about $700 a month.
Now the caf is selling conces-
sions at home football and bas-
ketball games to make up for lost
revenue. Carolyn Tharp, who is
the co-coordinator for the caf,
said doing the extra fundraising
was a wake-up call.
We want to get very fnan-
cially secure, Tharp, Law-
rence senior, said. If some-
thing like this happens again,
well be prepared.
Melodie Woerman, spokes-
woman for the Kansas Episco-
palian Diocese, said closing the
house and eliminating Alfords
position was part of a reorgani-
zation of how campus ministry
works for the diocese.
She said the diocese was
trying to reach more students
through campus ministry by
hiring a campus missioner to
travel between the fve regent
schools in the diocese. Previ-
ously, there was only a chap-
lain at the University and at
Kansas State University, with
no chaplain at Washburn,
Wichita State or Emporia.
Were not holding back on
this diocese, Woerman said.

Kansas football coach Mark
Manginos goal to have a new
practice facility built next to
Memorial Stadium received a
signifcant boost yesterday.
Former Kansas basketball
player Tom Kivisto donated $2
million to the athletics depart-
ment and pledged another $8
million. The money is scheduled
to go toward paying for the facil-
ity.
The facility would be a one-
or two-story structure and in-
clude meeting rooms, a weight
facility and locker rooms near
the stadium as well as practice
felds.
I believe a successful foot-
ball program helps a university
at every level, Kivisto said. By
making the football program
stronger, the entire University
and all of its sports programs
are the benefciaries. I am happy
to do what I can to support the
University, especially its athlet-
ics programs.
Jim Marchiony, associate ath-
letics director, said the donation
put the total pledges for the fa-
cility at about $18 million. The
cost of the facility is now being
envisioned at $40 million.
Marchiony said that con-
struction on the facility would
not begin until all of the money
was collected.
Construction plans have pre-
viously been a source of con-
troversy. Faculty and students
were concerned with the facility
blocking the view of the Campa-
nile and disrupting the tradition
of graduates walking down the
hill into the stadium.

Canine respiratory
virus spreads quickly
WASHINGTON A puzzling
outbreak of respiratory disease
in dogs has been tracked to a
virus that has infected horses for
decades a transfer researchers
say is rarely seen.
The illness frst drew atten-
tion sweeping through kennels
of racing greyhounds in several
states and has also been found in
household dogs in some states.
The fu kills between 5 percent
and 8 percent of infected dogs,
Dr. Cynda Crawford of the
University of Florida College of
Veterinary Medicine said at a
briefng Monday. Some dogs get
a cough, runny nose and fever
while others show no symptoms
at all.
The fu can cause symptoms
similar to the common illness
known as kennel cough, Craw-
ford said. But kennel cough is
usually caused by a bacteria
while the new illness is caused
by a virus.
Dr. Brad Fenwick, vice presi-
dent for research at the College
of Veterinary Medicine at Virginia
Polytechnic Institute, said he
thinks mortality from this fu
is even less than estimated by
Crawford. If infected dogs are
treated, mortality can be much
lower, Fenwick said in a tele-
phone interview.
While the new virus is eas-
ily transferred between dogs,
Crawford said people should not
panic.
Owners of dogs that have a
respiratory infection should keep
the animal home for at least two
weeks, she said.

Nancy Hawkins will persist.
The 55-year-old Hawkins sits
in a study room of the Music and
Dance Library where she works
as the media and reserve super-
visor, a blue button-down shirt
hanging loosely on her body, a
silver Jayhawk necklace from
her husband lightly hugging her
neck.
A very small fraction of her
memory is gone,
but youd never
know it. Shes so
meticulous, tell-
ing her story and
reciting dates like
they are the al-
phabet:
1972: Gradu-
ated from Kansas
State University
in her hometown
of Manhattan
with a bachelors
degree in music
performance in
organ.
1978: Took a
job with the Uni-
versity of Kansas
Libraries.
1979: Married
Alan Hawkins, a
KU bassoon pro-
fessor.
1986: Earned a
masters degree in
journalism from
the University.
But what shes here to talk
about is her fght with cancer.
1992: Cancer of the left breast
Hawkins didnt have a fam-
ily history of cancer; diabetes
and heart disease, but not
cancer. Yet she wasnt sur-
prised when her doctor said
the lump in her left breast was
malignant.
For some reason I was ex-
pecting it, she said. I dont
know why.
She chose to have a mastec-
tomy and was spared chemo-
therapy. She recovered quickly.
The same year, Hawkins saw
a graduate student she worked
with named Jay Atwood fight
a brain tumor, weaken and
die. She wouldnt forget him,
or the other people she met
who died of cancer. She felt so
helpless.
Unfortunately, we dont have
all the answers, she said.
After that, life went on as nor-
mal. Every year for more than a
decade, shed go in for a mam-
mogram. Every year, her doctor
would tell her she was cancer-
free.
Then, on a spring day in 2003,
she was checking out Law-
rences new Home Depot for the
frst time with Alan, when some-
thing weird happened.
I noticed all of a sudden that
out of the right side of my pe-
ripheral vision I couldnt see the
shelves, she said.
2003: A brain tumor
Hawkins doctor advised her
to go to Lawrence Memorial
Hospital for a CT scan. There a
doctor found a tumor nearly the
size of a tennis ball in the center
of her forehead.
It had prob-
ably been grow-
ing for years,
and had perma-
nently squeezed
her brain back.
She wouldnt
have noticed
it, except it had
fnally grown to
the size where
it was pushing
against her op-
tic nerve, caus-
ing her vision
problem.
I was
shocked, Alan
said.
Nancy was
too. They
wouldnt know
until after the
surgery whether
it was benign
or malignant,
whether she
might need
more surgeries, chemotherapy,
who knows. She thought of Jay
Atwood.
The surgeon told her hed
have to tickle her brain to re-
move it. That meant shed lose a
few cells from her frontal lobes,
and with those cells, a few mem-
ories.
The surgery was successful.
The tumor was benign, a gentle
giant. And she was relieved,
though a little loopy from the
drugs they gave her. She has no
memory of setting off the alarm
in the recovery room by walk-
ing out the door in search of the
newspaper, or calling the Uni-
versity the day after the surgery
to say she was ready to come
back to work.
Its quite an adventure when
theyre messing with your brain,
she laughed.
A year later, she was back un-
der the scalpel. No decade-long
reprieve this time.
2004: Cancer of the right breast
Unlike the frst time she got
cancer, this one surprised her. It
was so soon after the brain tu-
mor, in May of 2004.
She once again had a mas-
tectomy, once again didnt
need chemotherapy, once again
proved her toughness.
Shes just been unfappable
these last several years, Alan
said.
She chose not to have recon-
struction; shes doesnt want an-
other surgery.
Hopefully Ill not have to
see the inside of a surgery ward
again, she said. But you never
know.
2005: Doing her part
So now shes here, in the Mu-
sic and Dance Library, full of
plans. Shes determined to help
fnd a cure, any way she can.
The frst time she got can-
cer, she corralled a large group
of women from the community
and co-founded a breast can-
cer support group called Breast
Cancer Awareness of Douglas
County. The group still meets
every Monday at Presbyterian
Manor.
Its really to her credit that
the group got together, said
Jaye Cole, director of rehabilita-
tion services at Lawrence Me-
morial Hospital and one of the
other founders of the group.
Shes serving on a commit-
tee with the American Cancer
Society that will help decide
wholl get research grants in the
upcoming year. In a couple of
weeks, grant applications will
start fooding her mailbox.
Shes eager to pour over them
before her 10-person committee
meets this January in Atlanta.
Shes one of two stake-
holders non-experts with a
personal stake in the research
on the committee, and one
of only 20 stakeholders in the
nation selected by ACS. Its
important work, controlling
the purse strings of the big-
gest national fund providers
of cancer research besides the
government.
She just doesnt want to see
any more Jay Atwoods.
Ive seen too many, she
said.

A national organization has rec-
ognized Douglas County as one of
the nations best communities for
youths from birth to age 21.
Douglas County was selected
out of 1,200 applicants as one
of the 100 Best Communities
for Young People competition,
sponsored by Americas Prom-
ise - The Alliance for Youth, a
national organization dedicated
to providing youths with the re-
sources they need to succeed.
U.S. Rep. Dennis Moore (D-
Kansas) announced Douglas
Countys selection yesterday.
The competition honors com-
munities that have provided a
healthy and educationally suc-
cessful environment for youths.
Moore said that providing a
stable upbringing should be a pri-
ority of any community and was
proud of the recognition for Law-
rences dedication to its children.
The communities selected were
awarded for efforts to carry out
the fve promises that Americas
Promise guarantees for youths.
The fve promises are the pres-
ence of caring adults who are active
in childrens lives, safe places with
structured activities during non-
school hours, access to health care
and education for healthy living,
an education that provides market-
able skills and the opportunity to
help others in the community.
Christie Appelhanz, communi-
cations director for Moore, said,
As a KU student, Congressman
Moore experienced the joy of liv-
ing in Douglas County frsthand.
He now considers it an honor to
represent in Congress what he
has always known is one of the
best communities in the nation
for young people,
Shannon Reid, Lawrence
junior, has been involved with
Americas Promise for the past
fve years. She commended the
Douglas County chapter of the
organization for its resources
such as tutoring, mentoring and
after-school programs.
I think that their biggest ac-
complishment is providing re-
sources to the community so
that parents can provide youth
in Douglas County with the fve
promises, Reid said.
Kristen Malloy, executive direc-
tor of the Partnership for Children
and Youth, the local non-proft
organization that applied for the
competition, credited Douglas
Countys collaborative efforts for
its success with youths and said
that the collaboration is what
makes Douglas County stand out.
Theres just all different
kinds of cross-sector collabora-
tions, and Americas Promise is
all about engaging all sectors of
the community, Malloy said.
Americas Promise Founding
Chairman General Colin Powell
announced the competition in
May. The Partnership for Children
and Youth, along with the Roger
Hill Volunteer Center, submitted
the Douglas County application in
July. The winners were selected
by a panel of civic, business and
nonproft leaders that includ-
ing United Way President Brian
Gallagher, former U.S. Health
and Human Services Secretary
Donna Shalala and baseball star

Police arrest suspect
after Brothers incident
4a The UniversiTy Daily Kansan TUesDay, sepTember 27, 2005 news
By Jesse J. Holland
The AssociATed Press
WASHINGTON John Rob-
erts, hailed by supporters as the
brightest of the bright, cruised
yesterday toward easy confrma-
tion as chief justice while Presi-
dent Bush hinted that his next
pick to the Supreme Court could
be a minority or a woman.
Diversity is one of the
strengths of the country, the
president said.
Roberts, a 50-year-old fed-
eral appellate judge and the
presidents frst pick for the Su-
preme Court, is assured of get-
ting an overwhelming confrma-
tion vote by the Senate later this
week, making him the nations
17th chief justice.
Roberts is the brightest of
the bright, declared Majority
Leader Bill Frist, R-Tenn., as the
Senate began several days of de-
bate.
Two-thirds of the 100 senators
both Republicans and Demo-
crats already had promised to
support Roberts as the successor
to the late William H. Rehnquist
before the debate began.
Roberts would-be colleagues
support him, too, said Judiciary
Committee Chairman Arlen
Specter, R-Pa.
The word is that the justices
very much applaud his nomina-
tion to be chief justice, Spec-
ter said. He has the potential,
almost from a running start, to
bring a new day and a new era
to the Supreme Court.
With Roberts confrmation
guaranteed, senators and Bush
started turning to the White
Houses upcoming selection of a
replacement for retiring Justice
Sandra Day OConnor.
Specter said he expects that
nomination to come shortly,
if not immediately, after a deci-
sion is made by the Senate on
the Roberts nomination.
Frist and Minority Leader
Harry Reid, D-Nev., expect Rob-
erts to be confrmed by Thurs-
day, and Bush is expected to
make his next selection for the
Supreme Court soon after that.
I will pick a person who
can do the job. But I am mind-
ful that diversity is one of the
strengths of the country, Bush
said yesterday.
The president is under pres-
sure from many quarters in-
cluding his wife to pick
a woman or a minority for
OConnors seat.
Widely mentioned candi-
dates include federal appellate
judges Janice Rogers Brown,
Edith Brown Clement, Edith
Hollan Jones, Emilio Garza, Al-
ice Batchelder, Karen Williams,
J. Michael Luttig, J. Harvie
Wilkinson, Michael McConnell
and Samuel Alito.
Attorney General Alberto
Gonzales, former deputy attor-
ney general Larry Thompson,
lawyer Miguel Estrada and Mau-
ra Corrigan, a member of the
Michigan Supreme Court, are
also considered possibilities.
Roberts Democratic support-
ers warned the White House not
to take their support for granted
on the next nominee, especially
if Bush chooses a hard-right con-
servative to replace OConnor.
Were asking him in this case
especially: Be a uniter. Dont be a
divider, for the sake of the coun-
try, said Sen. Patrick Leahy of
Vermont, the senior Democrat on
the Senate Judiciary Committee.
Leahy is one of the 13 Demo-
crats supporting Roberts. With
all 55 Republicans expected to
vote for the conservative judge,
he will easily surpass the num-
ber of votes garnered by the last
conservative nominee, Clarence
Thomas, who was confrmed,
52-48, in 1991.
I believe there is value in
rolling up the score, Specter
said.
President Clintons two nomi-
nees, Ruth Bader Ginsburg and
Stephen Breyer, were confrmed
96-3 and 87-9, respectively.
Democrats opposing Rob-
erts say theyre afraid the for-
mer lawyer in the Reagan and
George H.W. Bush administra-
tions will be staunchly conser-
vative like Thomas and Justice
Antonin Scalia.
They question Roberts com-
mitment to civil rights and ex-
pressed concern that he might
overturn the 1973 Roe v. Wade
court ruling that established the
right to abortion.
The White House refused to
release paperwork from Rob-
erts time as a deputy solicitor
general in the administration of
George H. W. Bush, and many
Democrats feel the nominee has
evaded or refused to fully answer
questions asked by Democrats
during his confrmation hearing
two weeks ago.
I have too many doubts
about the direction a Roberts
court will take us. Persistent,
nagging doubts, said Sen. Bar-
bara Mikulski, D-Md.
Republicans insisted that
Roberts has not indicated how
he will vote on any issue, in-
cluding abortion.
Judge Roberts is not predis-
posed to overturning the settled
precedent represented by Roe,
said Sen. Olympia Snowe, R-
Maine.

Prisoner abuse trial
ends in conviction
By T.a. Badger
The AssociATed Press
FORT HOOD, Texas Army
Pfc. Lynndie England, whose
smiling poses in photos of de-
tainee abuse at Baghdads Abu
Ghraib prison made her the face
of the scandal, was convicted
yesterday by a military jury on
six of seven counts.
England, 22, was found guilty
of one count of conspiracy, four
counts of maltreating detainees
and one count of committing an
indecent act. She was acquitted
on a second conspiracy count.
The jury of fve male Army of-
fcers took about two hours to
reach its verdict. Her case now
moves to the sentencing phase,
which will be heard by the same
jury beginning today.
England tried to plead guilty
in May to the same counts she
faced this month in exchange
for an undisclosed sentencing
cap, but a judge threw out the
plea deal. She now faces a maxi-
mum of nine years in prison.
England stood at attention
yesterday as the verdict was read
by the jury foreman. She showed
no obvious emotion afterward.
Asked for comment after the
verdict, defense lawyer Capt.
Jonathan Crisp said, The only
reaction I can say is, I under-
stand.
Englands trial is the last for
a group of nine Army reservists
charged with mistreating pris-
oners at Abu Ghraib in Iraq,
a scandal that badly damaged
the United States image in the
Muslim world despite quick
condemnation of the abuse
by President Bush. Two other
troops were convicted in trials
and the remaining six made plea
deals. Several of those soldiers
testifed at Englands trial.
Prosecutors used graphic
photos of England to support
their contention that she was a
key fgure in the abuse conspir-
acy. One photo shows England
holding a naked detainee on a
leash. In others, she smiles and
points to prisoners in humiliat-
ing poses.
Beyond the sordid photos,
prosecutors pointed to Eng-
lands statement to Army inves-
tigators in January 2004 that the
mistreatment was done to amuse
the U.S. guards at Abu Ghraib.
The accused knew what she
was doing, said Capt. Chris
Graveline, the lead prosecutor.
She was laughing and joking. ...
She is enjoying, she is participat-
ing, all for her own sick humor.
Crisp countered that Eng-
land was only trying to please
her soldier boyfriend, then-Cpl.
Charles Graner Jr., labeled the
abuse ringleader by prosecu-
tors.
She was a follower; she was
an individual who was smitten
with Graner, Crisp said. She
just did whatever he wanted her
to do.
England, from Fort Ashby,
W.Va., has said that Graner,
now serving a 10-year sentence,
fathered her young son.
The defense argued that Eng-
land suffered from depression and
that she has an overly compliant
personality, making her a heed-
less participant in the abuse.
Englands earlier attempt to
plead guilty under a deal with
prosecutors was rejected by Col.
James Pohl, the presiding judge.
Pohl declared a mistrial during
the sentencing phase when tes-
timony by Graner contradicted
Englands guilty plea.
Graner, a defense witness at
the sentencing, said pictures he
took of England holding a pris-
oner on a leash were meant to
be used as a training aid. In her
guilty plea, England had said
the pictures were being taken
purely for the amusement of
Abu Ghraib guards.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for
Tuesday, Sept. 27, 2005: You naturally mani-
fest what you want this year. Sometimes
your fortitude will be tested, and you might
wonder if the end result is worth the effort.
You might be surprised by how you feel
once you get what you want. You will elimi-
nate friends who are no longer in sync with
you. As a result, another type of person
walks into your life. At the same time, you
are evaluating your life goals. If you are
single and you want a romance, you will get
just that. Friendship needs to be a strong
part of this bond. If you are attached, the
two of you need to work together to accom-
plish a life goal. Closeness grows through
this joint effort. LEO is a loyal friend.

ARIES (March 21-April 19)
HHHHH You really dont need any more
sparkle and energy, but the planets seem
to bathe you in high energy and ultimate
creativity. How you focus it is up to you. A
child or loved one wants some attention.
Tonight: Enjoy the moment.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20)
HHH Knowing when to pull out can make
all the difference in what happens right
now. You might opt to head home early or to
work from home. You have so much energy
that you can do more than your fair share.
Tonight: At home.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20)
HHHH You are more verbal than you
have been in a long time. You might feel a
lot better once you clear the air. You might
be amazed by your level of diplomacy. You
can express dissatisfaction and be heard.
Tonight: Lighten up.
CANCER (June 21-July 22)
HHH Take a hard look at how much you
are spending right now, especially on a per-
sonal level. Some might want to spruce up
the house. Be aware of your budget. There
is a tomorrow -- promise. Tonight: Pay bills.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)
HHHHH Of all signs, today you can muster
up whatever is needed to get where you want
to be. The Moon in your sign energizes you. You
also have a magnetic effect on those around
you -- just reach out and see. Tonight: Your wish
is anothers command.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
HHHH If you feel lucky with money, take
a moderate risk. Others might not be up for
heading in your chosen direction. Be OK
with walking alone. The end results will
become obvious to everyone else. Actions
and results speak. Tonight: Play ostrich.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
HHHHH Dont slough over anything. Keep
your goals high, and you are likely to achieve the
results you desire. Groups and meetings help
you gain needed support. You might feel as if you
have a cheerleading squad behind you. Tonight:
Be your gregarious self.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
HHHH Others follow your lead more
easily right now. Speak and take the frst
step, and others will join in. Dont forget a
commitment to an older friend or relative.
You make a difference in this persons life.
Tonight: Dont even think about making it an
early night.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
HHHHH Your ability to see beyond the im-
mediate and understand the ramifcations
separates you from the crowds. Realize that
you might need to explain to others in the
easiest way possible what you perceive.
Tonight: Rent a movie.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
HHHHH A partner shares some critical infor-
mation that might impact your approach in your
professional or community life. You sense that
this person is right-on, and he is. Let him pitch in.
Tonight: Dinner and a chat.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
HHHHH Others tap on your shoulder for
feedback and information. You might not be
comfortable with these sudden requests.
You, like Sagittarius, can see beyond the
obvious. Law, travel or education remains
key. Tonight: The choice is yours.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)
HHHH You are determined to clear your
desk or mind of a project. You might need
an associates assistance, whether you
want it or not. This person has a lot of
insight and helps shorten the path you
are taking. Why not make your life easier?
Tonight: Relax in your favorite chair.

LOS ANGELES Don Adams, the wry-voiced
comedian who starred as the fumbling secret agent
Maxwell Smart in the 1960s TV spoof of James
Bond movies, Get Smart, has died. He was 82.
Adams died of a lung infection late Sunday at
Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, his friend and for-
mer agent Bruce Tufeld said yesterday, adding that
the actor broke his hip a year ago and had been in
ill health since.
As the inept Agent 86 of the super-secret feder-
al agency CONTROL, Adams captured TV view-
ers with his antics in combatting the evil agents of
KAOS. When his explanations failed to convince
the villains or his boss, he tried another tack:
Would you believe ... ?
It became a national catchphrase.
Smart was also prone to spilling things on the
desk or person of his boss the Chief (actor Ed-
ward Platt). Smarts apologetic Sorry about that,
chief also entered the American lexicon.
The spy gadgets, which aped those of the Bond
movies, were a popular feature, especially the pre-
cellphone telephone in a shoe.
Smarts beautiful partner, Agent 99, played by
Barbara Feldon, was as brainy as he was dense,
and a plot romance led to marriage and the birth
of twins later in the series.
He had this prodigious energy, so as an actor
working with him it was like being plugged into
an electric current, Feldon said from New York.
He would start and a scene would just take off
and you were there for the ride. It was great fun
acting with him.
Adams was very intelligent, she said, a quality
that suited the satiric show that had comedy ge-
niuses Mel Brooks and Buck Henry behind it.
He wrote poetry, he had an interest in history
... He had that other side to him that does not
come through Maxwell Smart, she said. Don in
person was anything but bumbling.
Adams had an amazing memory that allowed
him to take an unusual approach to flming, Fel-
don said.
Instead of learning his lines ahead of time he
would have a script assistant read his part to him
just once or twice. He invariably got it right but
that didnt stop people from placing bets on it, she
recounted.
Adams, who had been under contract to NBC,
was lukewarm about doing a spy spoof. When he
learned that Brooks and Henry had written the
pilot script, he accepted immediately. Get Smart
debuted on NBC in September 1965 and scored
No. 12 among the seasons most-watched series
and No. 22 in its second season.
Get Smart twice won the Emmy for best com-
edy series with three Emmys for Adams as comedy
actor.
After four seasons on NBC, CBS picked up the
show but the ratings fell off as the jokes became
repetitive and it was canceled in 1970 after just
one year. The show lived on in syndication and a
cartoon series. In 1995, the Fox network revived
the series with Smart as chief and 99 as a con-
gresswoman. It lasted seven episodes.
It was a special show that became a cult classic
of sorts, and I made a lot of money for it, he re-
marked of Get Smart in a 1995 interview. But it
also hindered me career-wise because I was typed.
The character was so strong, particularly because
of that distinctive voice, that nobody could pic-
ture me in any other type of role.

There will be no female
president in my lifetime and
there shouldnt be. All right,
so Ive already touched a
nerve with some of you. Many
liberals and female activists
would bring up the issue of
Hilary Clinton running for
the presidency in 2008.
Although there are some
women who have the public
presence and essentially more
balls than their male counter-
parts vital for holding such an
office with a huge amount of
power and prestige, this coun-
try would still not accept a fe-
male president, or we would
have already done so.
For a country that prides
itself on womens suffrage and
the feminist movement, then
why havent we had women
in power since the start of
colonies?
The answer to that question
is that back then, men and
women thought that women
were incompetent for such
power.
This thinking still goes on
today. If the United States
wanted to be known as a
country that allowed equality
of the sexes, then the United
States would have idolized
women as leaders and war-
riors from the beginning as
other countries had done in
the past.
In England, for example,
women have been recog-
nized as leaders and warriors
throughout the centuries
starting with Queen Boudica
in the first century C.E. dur-
ing the Roman occupation
up to Queen Elizabeth I,
Queen Victoria and Margaret
Thatcher.
Here in the United States,
we do not have this female
warrior persona that allows
the women who want to lead
to do so.
Religion also plays an im-
portant factor in the sexual
inequality here in the United
States. Within the Judeo-
Christian beliefs on which
the United States and its prin-
ciples are founded upon, this
sexual inequality is obvious in
the emphasis on male leaders
and paternal lineage allowing
for the success of the society
to be based on the male geni-
talia.
This is another reason that
we will not have a female
president. When it comes
down to it, politics still fol-
lows the emphasis on males
and men controlling power.
The majority of the senate,
the house and governorships
has and always will be men.
Even though having women
in politics and acknowledge-
ments by their male counter-
parts as excellent leaders is
good PR, the reality is that
the general male politician,
a WASP (white Anglo Saxon
Protestant), will not give up
his established power just for
a woman to take it. Come on,
thats common sense.
There is one biological fac-
tor that would prevent a wom-
an from fulfilling the office
of the presidency - estrogen.
It is physically proven that
because of the higher levels
of estrogen in females than
those levels in males, they are
physically weaker than men.
Not only are there differences
in the muscular and skeletal
structures of the body, but
there are also mental differ-
ences due to the elevated lev-
els in estrogen.
Think about this: Although
some women are rational dur-
ing their menstrual cycle, not
all of us are.
The chemical imbalances
during this time have several
side effects from cramps to
becoming total bitches who
crave chocolate. Along with
the mental side effects of the
increased estrogen comes
the maternal instinct that all
women have.
The maternal instincts also
would prevent a woman from
raising her family and giving
the oval office her undying at-
tention.
Even male politicians cant
take care of their families
while in office.
Thats why they have their
wives and/or they ship their
kids off to boarding schools
to let someone else raise their
children.
That way their minds are
worry-free and they can get
their job done.
Because of several fac-
tors, women should not and
will not become president at
least in my lifetime. As I said
before, if the United States
was going to choose a female
president, there would have
already been one.
Instead, sexual inequality
will always be present.
For the most part, though,
power is outside of the media
frame and behind the scenes.
The old saying goes Be-
hind every great man is an
even greater woman.
This saying is indeed true!
Most recently, even Sex & the
City has commented on this
behind-the-scenes power.
Kim Catrells character,
Samantha Jones, states, The
only place you can control a
man is in bed. If we perpetu-
ally gave men blow jobs we
could run the world!
If it wasnt for the wives
of politicians, I highly doubt
their husbands would have
publics support for them to
be in office.
The harder job is behind-
the-scenes, getting that sup-
port and those votes as well
as campaign money (just dont
let your brother put campaign
money in real estate, Adam
Taft), not being the pretty
face that people see kissing
babies.
Garlick is a Sanford,
Maine, senior in interna-
tional studies and history
Scott Ruby severely misin-
terprets what constitutes caring
about oppressed people. Sad-
dam Hussein is responsible for
the deaths of more than one mil-
lion of his own citizens and citi-
zens of neighboring countries.
Even if Scott Rubys 24K to
84K to 100K estimates were to
be believed, they are a drop in
the bucket compared to Sad-
dams body count. Where were
the protesters before we entered
Iraq?
Did anyone protest against
Saddam Hussein? Of course
not. The LCR does not support
human rights. They simply op-
pose the U.S. military and by
extension, the U.S.A.
The simple fact for anyone
willing to believe his or her
country before those who hate
America, is that in both Af-
ghanistan and Iraq, we fought
the most humane war in the his-
tory of the world. We routinely
avoided targets because of civil-
ians in the area and we never
used illegal weapons.
Ruby also brushes with lies
when he states that the use of
torture by U.S. Troops in Iraq
has been documented.
The U.S. has not used torture
in Iraq or any other setting. Of
course, Mr. Ruby and I will dis-
agree on how to dene torture.
He might believe making
someone sit in an uncomfort-
able position is torture while I
believe that someone raping a
spouse and nine-year-old daugh-
ter in front of a husband under
the Hussein regime is torture.
I will leave that to others to
decide. I am also quite sure that
Mr. Ruby thinks that the Abu
Graib asco in some way dem-
onstrates that the military con-
dones torture.
We will never convince some
people that what happened
there was an utter lack of super-
vision and what we have seen is
that the involved members were
punished.
It should be remembered that
by the time most of America
knew about Abu Graib, the U.S.
military was already investigat-
ing the incident.
In the end, Mr. Ruby and the
LCR line up with people like
Cindy Sheehan who have called
for the military to get out of Iraq
and out of occupied New Or-
leans.
That is what I expect from the
LCR. I can only assume that the
LCR and Mr. Ruby would have
liked the military to stay out of
New Orleans.
As always, I stand ready to
meet and debate these facts with
anyone.

A round of applause for Scott
Shortens well-reasoned and
well-presented article on the na-
ture of todays greek system at
the University.
Mature, rational and under-
standing are not words often
associated with undergraduate
students, but in Shortens case
perfectly describe the manner
in which he assessed the state of
fraternity culture at the Univer-
sity today.
As an undergraduate, I was
both a member of a fraternity
and an opinion columnist for the
Kansan.
This is the article I sought to
write for four years.
I never put words to paper be-
cause I never thought I was able
to objectively write on this topic
without focusing on the igno-
rance of those who criticize fra-
ternities on false grounds, to the
detriment of the positive light I
could shed on greeks.
Shorten, on the other hand,
was able to accomplish just that.
Never defensive and consis-
tently analytical, Shorten al-
ludes to those who have mis-
conceptions of fraternity life, but
chooses to focus not on criticiz-
ing those people but instead on
dispelling their erroneous beliefs
through factual examples.
Now as a law student, it is eas-
ier for me to look at greek cul-
ture from the outside and while
like in anything there are
areas for improvement, the posi-
tive effects of fraternities both
on their members and the out-
side world vastly outweigh their
faults.
Thanks, Scott, for being a fan-
tastic representative for all of us.

When there are disasters that
take a national scope; the thing
that people forget is we have needs
in this town, Van Leer said. You
cant forget to donate to them.
The United Way campaign
began Sept. 8, with Douglas
County United Way hoping to
raise more than $1.5 million by
Nov. 18. The University has a
goal of $230,000 and all money
raised will go toward the coun-
tys efforts.
Jo Bryant, executive director
of the Douglas County United
Way, said since the campaign
just started two weeks ago, it
was hard to see what effect Hur-
ricane Katrina relief has had on
the campaign now.
Bryant said there hadnt
been a natural tragedy of this
magnitude in recent history, so
the United Way had no way to
gauge the possible impact of do-
nations being diverted for hurri-
cane relief.
Anton Bengston, co-coordi-
nator of the Center of Commu-
nity Outreach, said hurricane
relief efforts had affected CCOs
efforts toward other programs.
Bengston said CCO was getting
better at adjusting programs to
meet everyones needs.
He said CCO had had to
move collections around and
change schedules to meet needs
of regular volunteer programs
and hurricane volunteer work.
Were still forging on, ev-
erything will be fne, Bengston
said.

NEW ORLEANS With
Hurricane Rita gone, the mayor
picked up where he left off with
his plan to reopen New Orleans,
inviting people in one largely
unscathed neighborhood to
come back yesterday and help
us rebuild the city.
A line extended out of a
Winn-Dixie supermarket as lo-
cals stocked up on ice, milk and
other staples in Algiers, the frst
New Orleans neighborhood of-
fcially opened by Mayor Ray
Nagin.
At a Texaco station, owner
Mohammed Mehmood returned
to fnd damage both from the
storm and from looting. His
gas pumps were vandalized, his
computers did not work, and his
ceiling was about to collapse.
I have immediate problems,
he said. I have no money. They
broke and stole everything.
The neighborhood of 57,000
people lies across the Missis-
sippi River from the main part
of New Orleans and largely es-
caped fooding from Hurricane
Katrina and Rita. Unlike most of
the rest of the city, Algiers has
electricity and clean water.
A steady line of cars wait-
ed 20 to 25 minutes to get
through checkpoints all day,
police spokesman Capt. Mar-
lon Defillo said. He had no
estimate of how many people
returned.
With Hurricane Rita behind
us, the task at hand is to bring
New Orleans back, Nagin said.
We want people to return and
help us rebuild the city. How-
ever, we want everyone to assess
the risks and make an informed
decision about re-entry plans.
In neighboring St. Bernard
Parish, so heavily damaged by
fooding that many buildings
will have to be demolished,
offcials allowed residents in
yesterday to see their sodden
homes.
The mayor said a curfew
would be in place from 6 p.m.
to 8 a.m. and warned there were
limited police and frefghting
services and no critical-care
hospital services.

Lew Perkins, Athletics Direc-
tor, previously ensured that the
facility would not affect gradua-
tion traditions.
Perkins said when the facil-
ity was built, it would help the
other athletic teams at the Uni-
versity as well.
The entire KU Athletics fam-
ily is indebted to Tom for his
generosity, Perkins said. By
consolidating all football activi-
ties into one area, the facility will
free up space needed for other
sports. In addition, this football
facility will help KU football be
more competitive with other Big
12 programs.
Mangino brought up the idea
for the new facility after a prac-
tice last season.
Our coaching staff and play-
ers are all committed to making
the KU football program a peren-
nial power in the Big 12, and Toms
generosity will help us achieve that
goal, Mangino said.
The Anderson family of Los
Angeles donated $3.15 mil-
lion, and the Kimbell family
of Hutchinson, Kan., donated
three million last year to con-
tribute to the facility.
Kivisto, originally from Chicago,
graduated from the University in
1974 with a degree in pre-medicine
and psychology. He received his
masters degree in urban planning
from the University.
Kivisto is currently president
and CEO of SemGroup L.P. of
Tulsa, Okla., a midstream energy
service company. Last year, his
company was ranked 14th in earn-
ings among private companies by
Forbes Magazine with $1.4 billion.
Kivisto started for three seasons
on the Jayhawk basketball team
in the early 70s and averaged 8.3
points per game during his career.
Kivisto is also a member of the Il-
linois Basketball Hall of Fame.
Athletics was a huge part of
my life at KU, and I respect and
appreciate what Lew Perkins is
doing for athletics and for KU,
Kivisto said.
In recent years, numerous
schools in the Big 12 Confer-
ence made improvements to
their practice facilities, similar
to those proposed at Kansas.
In the last fve years, Oklahoma
built a new locker room, train-
ing area, and weight room. Texas
Tech completed an $84 million
improvement to its stadium and
practice facilities.
Missouri will undergo a $16
million improvement of its facil-
ities, which will include a new
weight room, dining hall, larger
offces and meeting rooms.

Conference play begins this
weekend and teams in the North
division will get an opportunity
to distinguish themselves.
Missouri will open its confer-
ence season with a home game
against No. 2 Texas.
The game will feature two ver-
satile and similar quarterbacks in
Texas Vince Young and Missouris
Brad Smith. Smith has had a good
start to the 2005 season, racking up
343 yards rushing and 748 passing
yards and has accounted for 10
touchdowns.
Young is being mentioned as
one of the favorites for the Heis-
man Trophy and has amassed
202 yards rushing and thrown
for 544 passing yards in Texas
frst three games.
I dont like to compare Brad
Smith and Young, but they
both have a lot of talent, Mis-
souri coach Gary Pinkel said.
They are both great athletes,
and Young will become a better
thrower the more he plays.
Last season, Young threw
three interceptions against Mis-
souri and was knocked out of
the game with a bruised ster-
num. Smith threw for 185 yards
and two interceptions last year.
Texas won 28-20.
Another key matchup for
Big 12 North leverage will be in
Lincoln, Neb., when the 23rd-
ranked Iowa State Cyclones play
the Nebraska Cornhuskers.
Iowa State enters the game
3-0 and is coming off a come-
from-behind victory at Army. Ne-
braska also enters the game 3-0
after a bye week last weekend. In
Nebraskas last game, the Corn-
huskers defeated the Pittsburgh
Panthers at home 7-6.
Iowa State coach Dan McCar-
ney said he knew how important
this game was to the Big 12 race.
Nebraska is a tough team
to overcome, McCarney said.
Frankly, we have been embar-
rassed over in Lincoln several
times. The great tradition and
environment at Nebraska should
bring out the best in our team,
and it will be a challenge.

Kansas basketball is going
through an array of changes in
tradition, such as the appear-
ance of the feldhouse, the loss
of the scoreboard that was home
to the famous dancing nachos
sequence, and the rescheduling
of Late Night in the Phog.
Some of these changes will
actually add to the experience
of watching a basketball game
in the feldhouse but they also
beg the question: Should these
areas be left alone for the sake
of tradition?
The Booth Family Hall of
Athletics is going to be the best
thing to hit Kansas basketball
since Dr. Naismith invented the
sport. If theres anyone out there
still complain-
ing that the new
building will
take away from
the look and
feel of the feld-
house, ask them
again after the
Hall of Athlet-
ics is completed
in November.
The hall will
boast 26,000
square feet of
historical mem-
orabilia of the
best Kansas
athletics pro-
grams, players,
and coaches. It
will also house
a new merchan-
dise store, ticket
offce, and a
lounge for play-
ers and recruits.
If anything, it
will add to the
Kansas basketball tradition.
The amazing thing is that
HOK Sport + Venue + Event
Architecture, the company con-
tracted for the construction,
matched the new bricks identi-
cally with the existing bricks on
the 50-year-old feldhouse.
Not only will this building
guarantee the University anoth-
er visit from the ESPN Game-
day crew, but it will look like
it has been there for 50 years.
Maybe they could have fgured
out a way to build this Hall of
Athletics without extending the
feldhouse, but hey, the fnished
product will be awesome.
As an avid fan of live sporting
events, there is one thing that
the feldhouse never had the
ability to give instant replays.
How many times have you
missed a dunk in the feldhouse
because you were still cheering
about the previous play? Say
goodbye to those days, because
Daktronics Inc., of South Da-
kota, has come to the rescue.
The new scoreboard will con-
tain an 8-by-12-foot TV screen
on each side of the board. Along
with the video board will come
a state-of-the-art sound system.
This new video board will do
everything the old board could
do and much more. Kansas
mens basketball coach Bill Self
even likes it.
It looks to me like it will be
consistent with the feel of the
building, Self
said.
It doesnt
look that much
different than
the old one, but
its better. If be-
ing frustrated
because you
cant see an in-
stant replay is a
tradition, then
its a tradition
that wont be
missed.
One tradi-
tion that will be
missed is the loss
of Late Night
in the Phog.
The NCAA is
to thank for this
one. They are al-
lowing teams to
practice at 7 p.m.
on Oct. 14 in-
stead of the usual
midnight on the
Friday closest to Oct. 15. This is the
one big faw in the Kansas basket-
ball changes. How can it be a late
night if it begins at 7 p.m.? They
should rename the event Early
Evening in Daylight. The Uni-
versity has celebrated the midnight
madness tradition for 20 years, and
now its gone.
The NCAA thought that the
late nights were a concern for
the travel of fans, students and
coaches. This is such a ridicu-
lous rule, how can you even re-
spond to a statement like that?
Now Kansas basketball fans
will have to cut out of work ear-
ly to catch the frst KU practice.
But hey, Kansas basketball
still has its traditions that make
it great for the fans. It still has
the inventor of basketball, it still
has the feldhouse, it still has the
rock chalk chant, and hopefully
will have a new high-tech ver-
sion of the dancing nachos on
the new video board.

All clear in the lower-level seats

Kansan staff writer
Staff and faculty members
and the Athletics Department
have eased tensions follow-
ing last seasons debate about
seats at mens basketball
games.
Faculty and staff were
warned this year that they
may have difficulty seeing the
court in certain sections be-
cause of standing students,
said Jim Marchiony, associate
athletics director.
They were very well-aware of
where the students sit, he said.
Many faculty ticket holders
last season had diffculty seeing
the court in several sections be-
cause of standing students.
The department asked stu-
dents to stand on the floor,
rather than on the bleach-
ers, in response to the com-
plaints.
Students will be asked again
this year not to stand on the
bleachers, Marchiony said.
Despite this warning, Mar-
chiony said he was not aware
of any faculty or staff members
returning their tickets for a re-
fund.
Susan Twombly, education
professor and faculty ticket li-
aison, said she had heard of at
least one faculty member who
was upset about the seating situ-
ation.
The faculty member was in-
formed of the ticket policy, at-
tended the select-a-seat program
and was able to choose seats he
liked, Twombly said.
We have had numerous
people tell us how happy they
were to be able to select a seat,
Twombly said, even if they did
not get the exact seat they want-
ed.
The ticket policy states that
faculty and staff members could
ask for refunds if they could not
fnd acceptable seats when it
was their time to choose, Twom-
bly said.
Marchiony said the order of
faculty seat-selection for mem-
bers who ordered a full-season
package was based on longev-
ity at the University of Kansas.
Faculty members who ordered
partial-ticket packages selected
their seats based on the results
of a previously-held lottery.
Faculty members who ordered
basketball tickets were able to
select their seats last week dur-
ing the select-a-seat program
held at Allen Fieldhouse. Facul-
ty and staff are allotted 1,600 to
1,800 tickets to mens basketball
games, Marchiony said.
Their tickets are in the lower
level of the southwest, southeast
and northeast corners of the
feldhouse.

The Kansas mens rugby team
lost its first game of the season 20-
15 in a close loss to Kansas State
on Saturday.
The Jayhawks got off to a slow start,
allowing two tries, worth fve points
each, from the Wildcats in the frst half.
Kansas capitalized off of a penalty
kick for three points from Adam Han-
naford, Tulsa, Okla., junior.
Andrew Meyer, Woodbridge, Va.,
senior, said Kansas had played a dis-
appointing frst half.
We committed numerous penal-
ties, and we just didnt seem to click.
Meyer said in an e-mail.
Despite frst-half woes, the Jay-
hawks came out ready to go in the
second half. Kansas scored two tries.
Hannaford and Trevor Hen-
dricks, Tulsa, Okla., sophomore,
scored those points, Hendrixs first
of the season. The points were not
enough to hold off the Wildcats.
Kansas rugby coach Larry Clark
said the team was ready to grow after
the disappointing loss.
It was our frst game of the season, and
we had a strong showing, Clark said.
However, its early in the sea-
son, so we are still searching for our
strengths and weaknesses. Were
looking forward to building on this.
Team captain Jordan Brown, Whitefsh
Bay, Wisc., senior, said the team has tried
to develop its 15 freshmen this year.
It was a disappointing loss, but
it was good to get the young players
into the game to see what they can
do, Brown said. Were still build-
ing, and that showed when we came
on strong in the end.
Tim Williams, Omaha, Neb.,
sophomore, said players still had
high expectations for the future of
the young team after the Kansas
State game.
Were building a dynasty. Wil-
liams said.
The teams next game will be against
Oklahoma State.

NEW YORK Jets quarter-
back Chad Pennington will miss
the rest of the season because
of a torn right rotator cuff, The
Associated Press learned last
night.
Penningtons injury was con-
frmed by a person with knowl-
edge of his condition, but who
declined to be identifed be-
cause the team had not made an
offcial announcement.
An MRI exam showed Pen-
nington tore his rotator cuff in
Sundays 26-20 overtime loss to
Jacksonville. The NFL Network
originally reported the injury,
the second time Pennington has
had this tear in less than a year.
Backup Jay Fiedler also dam-
aged his shoulder Sunday and
will be sidelined, leaving third-
stringer Brooks Bollinger to
play quarterback against Balti-
more this weekend.
During the third down of
the Jets frst series of the sec-
ond half, Pennington was taken
down by Bobby McCray and
fumbled for the second straight
down. He recovered the ball,
but injured his shoulder on the
play.
Fiedler came in, but was hit
while completing a 16-yard pass
to Justin McCareins his sixth
play in place of Pennington
and hurt his shoulder.
Pennington came back to
lead the Jets (1-2) on two scor-
ing drives, both capped by feld
goals, but clearly was hurting
and said after the game that the
injury felt similar to last year.
Bollinger, in his third season
with the Jets out of Wisconsin,
has appeared in just one NFL
game, last year against Arizona.

The Kansas womens basket-
ball team has been through a lot
of changes in the past few years.
Two years ago, long-time
coach Marian Washington and
interim coach Lynette Woodard
retired. Last year was the frst
for coach Bonnie Henrickson.
This year the team will un-
dergo a major face-lift, with six
newcomers joining six returning
players to complete the 2005-06
squad.
We brought them in here
knowing we would need them
on the foor, Henrickson said.
Practice so far has been lim-
ited to conditioning and skill
drills, but Henrickson said she
was encouraged by the progress
her players were making.
The most celebrated player
of this years class is Shaquina
Mosley. Mosley enters as a ju-
nior after spending two years
at Central Arizona College. She
was named the 2005 junior col-
lege/community college player
of the year by the Womens Bas-
ketball Coaches Association.
Mosley also was invited to the
USA Basketball National Team
Trials last summer to try out for
the USA Olympic team.
Kansas will have an interna-
tional favor with the addition of
Serbians Marija Zinic and Iva-
na Catic. Catic has experience
playing basketball in the United
States and attended high school
in West Virginia. Zinic had nev-
er visited the United States be-
fore enrolling at the University.
She picked Kansas because she
was friends with Catic. The two
are roommates this year.
It can be a diffcult transition,
Henrickson said. Maria is still
adjusting to the American style of
basketball, which is much differ-
ent than what she is used to.
Another pair of teammates will
join the team this year from a little
closer to Lawrence. Jen Orgas and
Katie Smith played high school
basketball together in Omaha,
Neb. Orgas was the frst player
Henrickson signed. Smith joined
the team later as a walk-on.
The fnal addition to this
years team is Sophronia Sal-
lard, who plays guard and for-
ward. She attended high school
in Syracuse, N.Y. Henrickson
said that Sallard had spent the
past few weeks adjusting to the
pace of Division I college bas-
ketball.
The challenge for Henrick-
son will be to balance playing
time so the veterans lead the
team, but still give the new
players a chance at game expe-
rience.
She refused to speculate about
roles for the season yet because
she had only had limited prac-
tice time with the players.
Full practice begins with Late
Night on October 14th.
With six talented players
coming in, Kansas fans could
look forward to a season with
higher expectations. And thats
a change they could get used to.

NEW YORK Yankees star
Derek Jeter has received a threat-
ening letter reportedly warning
him to stop dating white women
or hell be shot or set on fre.
FBI special agent Scott Wil-
son, speaking by phone from
Cleveland, confrmed the bu-
reaus probe yesterday, saying
we have an ongoing open in-
vestigation into racially threat-
ening letters to Jeter and others
across the country.
He declined to comment fur-
ther.
The New York Police Depart-
ment has also investigated the
matter.
The Daily News reported yes-
terday that the hate mail to
the Yankees 31-year-old cap-
tain called him a traitor to his
race for dating white women.
It warned him to stop or hell
be shot or set on fre, the News
said.
The Daily News reported that
others received similar threats,
including U.S. Supreme Court
Justice Clarence Thomas, Mi-
ami Dolphins defensive lineman
Jason Taylor and the parents of
tennis star James Blake.
Jeter, picked by People maga-
zine as one of the worlds most
eligible bachelors, has been
linked with models, singers, ac-
tresses and athletes of various
racial and ethnic backgrounds
in New Yorks gossip columns.
His mother is white and his fa-
ther is black.
The NYPDs hate crimes unit
recently completed a four-month
investigation into the letter to
Jeter mailed to Yankee Sta-
dium earlier this season, accord-
ing to Detective Brian Sessa.
In an interview broadcast
Sunday on CBS 60 Minutes,
Jeter said that he and his sister
were taunted for being bi-racial
while growing up in Michigan.
But Jeter said that he has never
heard any racial epithets from
the fans at Yankee Stadium in
his 11 seasons as a Yankee.
The threats have been traced
to the Cleveland area.

see a couple of faces from my
hometown. After the coaches
and I talked for a couple of
hours, I decided that I was go-
ing to attend Kansas.
Morningstar was also being
recruited by Tennessee, North-
ern Illinois, Texas Christian and
West Virginia. He is expected to
be a scholarship athlete for the
Jayhawks during the 2006-2007
season, according to rivals.com.

ATLANTA The Atlanta
Braves kept their champagne on
ice. Instead, this was a night for
a more poignant, personal cel-
ebration.
Todd Greene hit a three-run
homer in the eighth inning and
the Colorado Rockies rallied for
a 6-5 victory over the Braves last
night, preventing Atlanta from
clinching at least a tie for its
14th straight division title.
While most of the Turner
Field crowd groaned when
Greene homered, a small group
of family and friends cheered
including the catchers father,
Charles Greene, whos fought
a long battle against lung and
bladder cancer.
My dads having some trou-
ble, but he was able to be here,
said Todd Greene, a native of
Augusta, Ga., who lives in sub-
urban Atlanta during the offsea-
son. The last time he saw me
play (in person) was when we
were here last year.
Colorado came all the way
back from a four-run defcit,
taking advantage of the Braves
shaky bullpen.
Chris Reitsma (3-6) took over
with one out in the eighth and
didnt retire anyone.
Matt Holliday and Garrett
Atkins hit back-to-back singles
before Greene drove a 1-2 pitch
into the center-feld seats, a 406-
foot shot for his seventh homer
and the Rockies frst lead of the
night.
With all my family and
friends here, yes, it was the big-
gest hit Ive ever gotten, Greene
said.
Reitsma threw a changeup
where he wanted low and
over the inside corner then
watched in disbelief as the ball
sailed out of park.
It was 3 inches off the
ground, Reitsma said. What
can you do? I dont know if he
was looking for it. Whatever.
Youve got to tip your hat to a
guy in that situation. Its not fun
to do, but thats why they call it
the big leagues. It was a good
pitch in a good location.
Ryan Speier (2-1) pitched a
scoreless seventh for the win.
Brian Fuentes worked the ninth
for his 31st save, ending the
game by striking out pinch-hit-
ter Brian Jordan with a man on
third.
The Braves came into the
night hoping to clinch the NL
East championship, needing a
win over the Rockies coupled
with a loss by second-place
Philadelphia.
Space had already been
cleared on the facade in left
feld, where the team displays
pennants for each of its playoff
seasons.
But there was nothing to
watch on the scoreboard much
of the night. The Phillies game
against the New York Mets, set
to begin a half-hour earlier than
the one in Atlanta, was delayed
for more than 2 1/2 hours by
rain in Philadelphia.
The Phillies and Mets fnally
began about the time the Rock-
ies were coming to bat in the
seventh, ruining any chance of a
celebration at Turner Field.
Colorados comeback made it
a moot point there would be
no outright division title on this
night.
Im kind of glad, said Adam
LaRoche, who homered for the
Braves. If we had won, we
would have come in here and
watched television for two hours
to see if the Phillies won. Im
not saying I would have com-
plained. Obviously, that would
have been better than this. But
it will all work out.
Jeff Francoeur also homered
for the Braves, and Johnny Es-
tradas two-run double off rook-
ie starter Mike Esposito pushed
Atlanta to a seemingly comfort-
able 5-1 lead in the ffth.
Colorado began its comeback
in the sixth, though a baserun-
ning blunder messed up a po-
tentially huge inning.
The Rockies started with fve
straight hits, including Todd
Heltons RBI double and Gar-
rett Atkins run-scoring single.
On Heltons hit, Luis Gonza-
lez came streaking around third,
intent on scoring another run.
But coach Mike Gallego threw
up the signal to stop, Gonzalez
fell down, got caught between
bases, tried to score and was
thrown out easily by Rafael Fur-
cals relay.
Blaine Boyer replaced starter
Horacio Ramirez and gave up
two more hits, putting the po-
tential tying run on base. But
the rookie escaped the jam by
striking out Greene and Dustan
Mohr.
In the next inning, Boyer
threw his frst pitch in the dirt
and appeared to be in pain.
He rubbed at his right biceps
when trainer Jeff Porter came to
the mound, and manager Bobby
Cox signaled for a new pitcher.
Boyer has been bothered by
a sore shoulder, and Cox men-
tioned the biceps as being the
source of the pain.
The pitcher said simply: Its
just my arm.
The team said Boyer was day
to day, but its too early to tell
how long he might be out.
Ramirez gave up eight hits
and three runs in 5 1-3 innings.
Esposito has yet to win in two
big league starts, giving up nine
hits and all fve Atlanta runs in
4 1-3 innings.
Notes Colorado had 15
hits. ... Francoeur had the frst
two-walk game of his young
career a sign of growing pa-
tience for a hitter who went 131
plate appearances before draw-
ing his frst walk in the majors.
... Helton extended his hitting
streak to 13 games. ... Greenes
homer ruined Ramirezs chance
to tie his career high of 12 wins.
... Atkins had three hits and two
RBIs.

NEW YORK Baseball
players offered to accept a stiffer
penalty for frst-time steroid of-
fenders 20 games instead of
10 days along with agreeing
to amphetamine tests, but their
proposal yesterday still fell short
of what commissioner Bud Selig
wanted.
In an April 25 letter to the
union, Selig called for a 50-game
suspension for an initial positive
test, a 100-game ban for second-
time offenders and a lifetime
ban for a third violation.
Union head Donald Fehrs
response said Seligs proposal
was meant to quiet criticisms of
baseballs current policy, not de-
ter steroid use.
We share your concern about
the criticism our program has
received, and, in response, the
players have demonstrated, sev-
eral times now, their willingness
to take all reasonable measures
in response, Fehr wrote.
Nine players have been sus-
pended this year under the MLB
program, with Baltimores Rafael
Palmeiro the most prominent.
Doubling it is good, Ori-
oles player representative Jay
Gibbons said before last nights
game against the New York Yan-
kees. I think 10 is a little light.
Ten you can get away with
as a team. You can do without
a guy for 10 days, but 20, youre
kind of hurting your ballclub,
too. Not just your own public
scrutiny, but youre hurting your
ballclub to win.
Fehrs letter came before
tomorrows congressional
hearings on steroids in sports,
the latest in a series of ses-
sions on Capitol Hill. Selig
and Fehr are expected to join
the commissioners and union
heads of the NFL, NBA and
NHL in testifying about leg-
islation to standardize testing
and punishment policies.
Its good to see the play-
ers union moving in the right
direction. But it remains to
be seen whether this is good
enough for members of Con-
gress, said Rob White, spokes-
man for House Government
Reform Committee chairman
Tom Davis, R-Va.
In a telephone interview, Fehr
said he released the unions po-
sition because of the upcoming
hearing and to ensure players
are up to date before they scat-
ter when the regular season
ends Sunday. Hes met separate-
ly with players on all 30 teams
since April to give everybody
an opportunity to weigh in who
wanted to.
Fehr said the sides disagree
on what the frst penalty should
be and the frst penalty range.
We always thought there was
a need for a review, he said.
You dont have a cookie-cutter
approach. The better approach if
you can is to gauge the individu-
al facts and circumstances.
Fehr said that while Selig
publicly called for 50-game sus-
pensions for frst-time offend-
ers, management negotiators
proposed it be a range of 50-60
games, giving players the right
to ask an arbitrator to lower it
to 40 games.
Rob Manfred, executive vice
president of labor relations in
the commissioners offce, did
not return a telephone call seek-
ing comment.
Twenty games are not
enough, baseball spokesman
Rich Levin said. Also, the
unions proposal is not three
strikes and youre out. It is three
strikes and maybe youre out.
Baseball began testing for ste-
roids in 2003, but players were
not identifed by name. Because
more than 5 percent of tests
were positive, penalties began
in 2004 under rules that were
scheduled to run through 2006.
I think its great, Detroits
Brandon Inge said of the unions
response. Im glad theyre
cleaning up the sport. I dont
like it that anything can be taint-
ed with an illegal substance.
Fehr said that during recent
negotiations with management,
the union agreed to have:
every player tested at the
start of spring training and at
least one additional time.
the possibility that a frst-
time offenders suspension could
rise up to 30 games if there were
aggravating factors, or be low-
ered to as few as 10 games if an
arbitrator fnds mitigating cir-
cumstances.
frst-time offenders for
amphetamine use receive treat-
ment, with discipline starting
with a second offense.
the penalty for a second
positive steroid test increase
from 30 days to 75 games, with
the possibility an arbitrator
could increase it to as many as
100 games or lower it to as few
as 50 games.
the commissioner impose
such discipline as you believe
appropriate, including a perma-
nent ban for a third positive
test provided that it is consis-
tent with just cause and subject
to arbitral review.
much of the drug pro-
grams administration moved to
a jointly selected independent
expert from the current man-
agement-union joint committee.
the provision calling for
the program to be halted in the
event of a government investiga-
tion be narrowed.
Some congressmen have criti-
cized baseball for not adopting
the standard of the World Anti-
Doping Agency, which in most
cases calls for two-year suspen-
sions for frst offenses and life-
time bans for second positives.

DENVER Rod Smith,
Mike Anderson and the Denver
Broncos made that newfangled
Kansas City defense seem a
lot like the old one. And that
vaunted Chiefs offense looked
pretty lame, too.
Anderson ran for a 44-yard
touchdown and Smith became
the frst undrafted player in NFL
history to reach 10,000 yards re-
ceiving last night, as the Bron-
cos handled Kansas City from
start to fnish in a 30-10 victory.
Jake Plummer went 13-of-18
for 152 yards including a 12-
yard TD to Smith and ran for
a score on fourth-and-goal from
the 1, an effcient performance
that was more than enough to
blow out Trent Green and the
Chiefs.
I didnt do much but just
guided them down the feld,
Plummer said.
Green finally threw his first
touchdown of the season with
2 minutes left a 21-yard pass
to Samie Parker but it was
cosmetic, a score that helped
Dick Vermeil avoid his worst
loss as an NFL coach and the
Chiefs avoid matching their
worst loss in the 46-year his-
tory of this AFC West series.
Green had 27 TD passes last
year for the NFLs most produc-
tive offense. The Chiefs (2-1)
were anything but productive
on this night.
Priest Holmes fnished with
only 61 yards and backfeldmate
Larry Johnson had 13 yards on
eight carries.
Harassed by Gerard War-
ren and Courtney Brown
two members of Denvers
revamped defensive line
Green finished 23-of-44 for
221 yards and the garbage
touchdown.
I think we proved we can
play with the best of them,
Broncos defensive end Trevor
Pryce said. That was the best
offense in the NFL, make no
doubt about it.
When the Broncos (2-1)
werent making Kansas City
look bad, the Chiefs were
doing it themselves. They
finished with 118 yards in
penalties, including eight in-
fractions in the first half while
the Broncos were cruising to
a 20-0 lead.
The perennially soft Kansas
City defense added players this
season most notably defen-
sive backs Patrick Surtain and
Sammy Knight and linebacker
Kendrell Bell and when the
Chiefs allowed a total of 24
points over the frst two games,
it looked like the fxes were
working.
They took a big step back-
ward against the Broncos,
who finally started clicking
after two rugged games to
start the season.
Anderson, who has struggled
since hurting his ribs in the frst
half of the opener against Mi-
ami, went through a huge hole
untouched in the frst quarter
for his long score and a 10-0
lead.
We didnt want to sit back,
Anderson said. We wanted to
go right at them. Thats why the
frst score was so important. We
had to run the ball to make the
play action so effective.
The Broncos used Anderson
to work the clock in the second
half and he fnished with 98
yards on 20 carries.
Three plays after Ander-
sons touchdown, Brown re-
covered his second fumble
of the season and the Bron-
cos scored right away, when
Plummer saw Smith at the
back of the end zone for the
12-yard score.
The Denver receiver caught
seven passes for 80 yards.
He hit his milestone with a
19-yard catch in the third
quarter, making him the 24th
player to reach 10,000 yards.
He celebrated in his typical
understated style getting
up and lining up for the next
play. Five plays later, Plum-
mer bootlegged in from a yard
to give the Broncos a 27-3
lead.
Early in the fourth quarter,
Smith took a rough hit from
Knight after catching an 11-yard
pass, but walked off the feld
under his own power. He was
diagnosed with a concussion
and did not return. The Bron-
cos also lost cornerback Champ
Bailey to a hamstring injury in
the second quarter.

Denver Broncos tight end Rod Smith pulls in a pass on a 19-yard reception against the Kansas City Chiefs
during the third quarter in Denver last night. Smith became the first undrafted player in NFL history to sur-
pass 10,000 yards.
I think we proved
we can play with the

was the best offense
in the NFL.
