A group of students plans
to march to the Lawrence City
Hall tonight in hope of chang-
ing the current noise ordi-
nance.
The group, which includes
the KU chapter of the American
Civil Liberties Union, members
of Delta Force, and concerned
citizens, will give input to the
city commission as it discusses
whether to change the noise or-
dinance. The meeting will begin
at 6:35 p.m.
The group wants a citizen
complaint or a warning before
a citation can be issued. Under
the current ordinance, no com-
plaints or warnings are required
before a violation is given. A
second option the group sup-
ports is the setting of a 60-deci-
bel noise limit between mid-
night and 7 a.m. in residential
neighborhoods. A volume of 70
decibels is the volume of normal
traffc.
The commission will discuss
three options of its own.
Commissioners have the op-
tion of leaving the ordinance as
it stands.

When William Duellman
stumbled across a small, odd
frog in the jungles of Panama in
1963, it was the start of a long
career.
While studying tree frogs,
Duellman, a retired ecology and
systematics professor and cura-
tor of Herpetology at the Uni-
versity of Kansas, discovered a
frog with a pouch on its back.
Now, 42 years and 22 marsupial
frog species later, he is still add-
ing to his life’s list.
“I am not ‘one of,’ I am the
leading expert on marsupial
frogs,” Duellman said.
Duellman continues to do
research on marsupial frogs be-
cause he said he was trying to
understand the biodiversity of
the planet. The greatest diversity
of life is in the tropics where his
frogs live, he said.
In 2003 Duellman discovered
the most recent frog species in
northern Peru with the help of Pab-
lo Venegas, a member of the faculty
at Facultad de Medicina Veteri-
naria de la Universidad Nacional
Pedro Ruiz Gallo in Peru. Their
fndings were recently published
by the Herpetologists’ League in its
quarterly journal, Herpetologica.
The newest species of marsu-
pial frogs are different from other
marsupial frogs because of a fat,
spatula-shaped skull and differ-
ent-colored skin that is fused to the
skull, Duellman said. Most mar-
supial frogs have big robust skulls,
Duellman said. The newest species
he found brought the number Du-
ellman has discovered to 22. Only
46 species of marsupial amphib-
ians are known at this time.

Students who use ReNu con-
tact solutions beware: The solu-
tion and its generic counterparts
have been recalled because of
suspicion of an association with
an eye fungus that can lead to
cornea transplants.
Bausch and Lomb voluntarily
recalled its ReNu contact solu-
tion last week because of eye
fungus suspicions.
The company asked U.S. re-
tailers to remove its ReNu with
MoistureLoc and generic ver-
sions of the solution from stores
Thursday and suggested other
users switch to another solu-
tion until a Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention investi-
gation of fungal keratitis reports
was fnished.
Keratitis is an infection of
the cornea, the clear cover-
ing of the colored part of the
eye. Seventeen states, includ-
ing Iowa and Missouri, have
reported fungal keratitis to the
CDC. The disease is not con-
tagious.

Athletes’ Web profiles patrolled

Kansan staff writer
The Athletics Department
is making sure athletes are not
putting incriminating or defam-
ing information on their online
profles at Web sites such as
facebook.com and myspace.
com.
Kansas is one of many schools
that monitors its athletes’ online
profles.
Loyola University Chicago
banned athletes from belonging
to facebook.com, according to
a USA Today article.
Administrators check the ath-
letes’ profles and pictures look-
ing for pictures showing alcohol
or drug use and profle descrip-
tions that talk about alcohol,
drugs or sex.
Jim Marchiony, associate
athletics director, said that KU
athletes hadn’t had much of a
problem complying with the
department’s advice.
If something does stand out,
the administrators can tell the
athlete to change it, Marchiony
said.
The department often stresses
the importance of being public
role models.
“Not only is it an issue of rep-
resenting the University and the
team and yourself in an appro-
priate manner, it’s also a safety
and security issue,” Marchiony
said.
Marchiony said the coaches
had spoken to their players
about Web sites such as face-
book.com or myspace.com,
and how their online profles
should be representative a pub-
lic fgure.
Some athletes have taken
control of their profles them-
selves.
Christine Skoda, Edmon-
ton, Alberta, Canada, senior
and tennis player, said athletes
needed to be cautious with on-
line profles.

For the sixth time in three
years, former KU running back
John Randle has been charged
with a crime.
Randle was charged with bat-
tery and disorderly conduct af-
ter a fght with KU safety Jerome
Kemp early Saturday morning,
according to a police report re-
leased Monday.
The altercation occurred 2:45
a.m. Saturday in the 1000 block
of Kentucky. According to wit-
ness reports, a 19-year-old female
Lawrence resident was pushed
to the ground after attempting to
separate the two men. A police
spokeswoman said witnesses
gave conficting accounts of how
the altercation started.
Randle left the scene after the
30-second altercation, accord-
ing to the police report. Law-
rence police stopped Randle’s
vehicle on 1135 West Campus
Road and issued Randle a notice
to appear in court for the battery
and disorderly conduct charges.
No court date has been set.
Both Kemp and Randle suf-
fered minor injuries. No injury in-
formation for the Lawrence resi-
dent was available, but according
to the police report all parties de-
clined medical treatment.
Randle was the only person
charged with a crime.
Randle, Wichita junior, is the
former starting running back for
the KU football team. He was
kicked off the team in March 2005
after a series of arrests. Football
coach Mark Mangino allowed
Randle to keep his athletic schol-
arship if Randle chose to continue
his education at the University.
Jim Marchiony, associate ath-
letic director, would not comment
on whether this incident could
cost Randle his scholarship.

cuddly illegal alien
sneaks into the U.S.
ELDRIDGE, N.D. — A
stowaway who made it past
customs agents and into the
United States on the metal
frame of a fertilizer truck has
won over locals, who call her
the “sweetest illegal immi-
grant we’ve ever met.”
The migrant — a cat
— hopped aboard a semi-
trailer hauling fertilizer from
Esterhazy, Saskatchewan, to
Eldridge.
Customs agents at the
border alerted the driver, but
no one could catch the feline.
When the semi arrived in
Eldridge, the furry stowaway
was still clinging to the frame.
The trip Wednesday took
about eight hours.
“She had nothing to grip
with her claws because it’s
metal,” said Mainline book-
keeper Jessica Hansen, who
rescued the cat. “I don’t know
how she kept from falling out.”
Hansen said she and her
fellow employees — who
named the cat Canada — con-
sidered keeping the animal as
a mascot, but decided it was
too risky with all the trucks
around. The James River Hu-
mane Society in Jamestown,
near Eldridge, is trying to fnd
it a home.
“I don’t want to see her
deported now that they’ve
tightened the immigration
laws,” Society spokeswoman
Deb Archambeau joked. “She’s
sweet and friendly and de-
serves a good home.”

Student skips jury duty,
lands himself in jail
PONTIAC, Mich. — A 24-
year-old college student was
ordered to spend the weekend
in jail after skipping out on
jury duty.
Ilya Kluzner, a student at
the University of Michigan-
Dearborn, must also write a
fve-page essay on the histori-
cal perspective of the Ameri-
can dream and why jury duty
is crucial, under the sentence
imposed by Oakland County
Circuit Judge Fred Mester.
Mester found Kluzner in
criminal contempt Thursday
after he missed the second
day of a two-day drug posses-
sion trial.
“He just felt like he was
skipping class,” Assistant Oak-
land County Prosecutor Jeffrey
Kaelin said.
The student initially faced
up to 30 days in jail. His lawyer
asked for leniency and his
mother apologized for her
son’s behavior.

Marijuana-flled house
deserted during fre
WADSWORTH, Ohio — Fire-
fghters dousing a blaze in
a new home were confused
when the presumed owner
suddenly fed — until they
found $700,000 worth of mari-
juana plants in the basement,
offcials said.
“It seemed so strange to
me,” said Wadsworth Fire Chief
Ralph Copley. “If it were my
home burning, I’d want to be
there.”
After frefghters extin-
guished the blaze, which
started in the attic early Friday,
authorities said they found
239 marijuana plants flling
a quarter of the basement,
which was wired throughout
for indoor plant growing.
Investigators from the task
force and the federal Drug
Enforcement Agency were
trying to fnd the two people
who left the house.
The Medina County Drug
Task Force and frefghters
on Friday confscated items
from the home, including
peat moss, 1,000-watt bulbs
and large refecting discs. The
basement had no fre dam-
age.
The marijuana-cultivat-
ing system was wired to the
home’s electrical system in a
way that bypassed the meter,
said Michael Barnhardt, act-
ing director of the task force.
Such wiring would help a
grower avoid the large elec-
tric bills that clue in investi-
gators, he said.
Copley said the cause of
the fre was unknown, but it
did not appear to be related
to the marijuana operation
or electrical wiring. The fre
caused about $150,000 in
damage.

Frogs
continued from page 1a
Currently, Duellman is work-
ing on a diary of DNA analyses
to better understand the mar-
supial frogs. He needs tissue
samples that have not been pre-
served, so he must go back into
the feld and look for more live
specimens, Duellman said.
Since 1963, The National Sci-
ence Foundation has funded all
of his research on the marsu-
pial frogs. Duellman has traveled
many times to places like Panama,
Columbia and other Central and
South American countries to look
for frogs in places where people
haven’t been before, he said.
“I have been chasing the damn
things for 43 years,” he said. “Some-
times you are successful, but just as
many times, you are not.”
The marsupial is a rarity in
the frog world, said Juan Manu-
el Guayasamin, Quito, Ecuador,
graduate student in the division
of evolutionary biology at the
University of Kansas.
“Marsupial frogs are one of the
extreme products of evolution,”
he said. “Through time, female
marsupial frogs have evolved a
pouch on the back where fertil-
ized eggs are placed.”
Marsupial frogs generally live in
the area from Costa Rica to Argen-
tina. Most of the species live in the
Andes Mountains. These frogs can
range from a couple of centimeters
long to almost four inches and they
eat mostly insects, Duellman said.
According to Duellman,
there is nothing special about
the structure of the pouch. It
is a pocket in the middle of the
back that is used as an incuba-
tion system for fertilized eggs.
The females carry these eggs in
the pouch until they hatch and
leave “momma and go off on
their own,” Duellman said.
This evolutionary rarity has
helped the marsupial frog become
partially or completely indepen-
dent of water, Guayasamin said. By
being independent of water, marsu-
pial frogs can live high in trees.
“It is possible that generations
and generations can go by with-
out any of these frogs ever touch-
ing the ground,” Duellman said.
“These are the ones that are hard
to fnd, as you can imagine.”
The marsupial frog is thought
to have evolved from another
species of tree frog
This type of tree frog lived
mainly in North and South Amer-
ica. Over time, a brood pouch de-
veloped and the marsupial frog
was born, Duellman said.
Even though Duellman, 76,
retired from teaching systematics
and ecology in December 1996,
he still enjoys being able to use
the University’s facilities for his
work.
“What is better than getting paid
for what you like to do?” Duellman
asked. Then he thought about his
statement again, and added: “At
least I used to get paid.”

William Duellman disovered 22 species of marsupial frogs. “I have been
chasing the damn things for 43 years,” he said.

Speaker shares Iraq experience
Amanda Sellers/KANSAN
Lt. Gen. David Petraeus speaks to a full audience at the Dole Institue of Poli-
tics Monday night. He stressed 14 things he learned while in Iraq from money
handling to respecting different cultures.
By Fred A. dAvis iii
[email protected]
Kansan staff writer
Setting the tone was the key
message in Lt. Gen. David H.
Petraeus’ speech, “Observations
from Soldiering in Iraq.”
Speaking in front of a packed
crowd at the Dole Institute of
Politics, Petraeus’s observations
ranged from the importance of
cultural awareness to how es-
sential money is in rebuilding
Iraq — both vital methods that
aid in sending a positive mes-
sage to everyone, soldiers and
civilians, in Iraq.
Petraeus said the cultural
awareness, such as learning the
language, the culture and the
structure of the government was
“hugely important” because of
the difference in customs of the
United States versus Iraq.
“Commanders get paid to
make adjustments and set the
right tone,” he said.
Petraeus, the Commnanding
General of the U.S. Army Com-
bined Arms Center and Fort
Leavenworth, used a Power-
Point demonstration to illus-
trate his “14 Observations from
Iraq.”
When discussing how “money
is ammunition,” Petraeus said
that money was very helpful in
getting projects done and aiding
with various missions.
In an eight-month span, Pe-
traeus said his division com-
pleted some 5,000 projects af-
ter receiving $53.6 million from
money recovered throughout
Iraq. Those projects includ-
ed rebuilding schools, water
plants and getting electricity
running.
He also highlighted the im-
portance of Iraqis and U.S. sol-
diers working together when
he called Major Christopher
Phelps, Silver Lake graduate
student, and his Iraqi interpret-
er, Mustafa Abdualla, who hails
from Baghdad, to the stage.
Phelps and Abdualla have
worked together for eight
months and spent time in Fallu-
jah before coming to the United
States.
Petraeus cited their relation-
ship’s signifcance and the role
each are playing in turning
things around in Iraq.

Students fnd bleeding
man near their house
When Jennie Sullivan came
home from Watson Library,
she saw a man lying near the
porch of her Kentucky street
house, bleeding profusely
from his arm.
The Chicago sophomore
quickly yelled at her room-
mates inside the house.
Sullivan asked the man if he
wanted them to call the police.
Her roommate, Courtney
Sullivan, Chicago senior, said
she didn’t think the situation
was that serious until she
came out and saw the man
bleeding on the ground.
“When she told me some-
one was passed out, I thought
it was just some drunk college
guy,” Courtney said.
Courtney then called the
police and applied frst aid
by pressing a towel on the
man’s arm to try to stop the
bleeding.
Lawrence Douglas County
Fire and Medical arrived
shortly after and took the
49-year-old Lawrence man to
Lawrence Memorial Hospital
at 10 p.m. The man told the
roommates he had rammed
his hand through some glass.
Both Courtney, Jennie, and
roommates Julie Sullivan and
Julie Hawking said the man
seemed very nice. They also
said from the conversation
they had with the man that the
wound seemed to be self-in-
ficted.
“We wish the best for him
and will keep him in our
prayers,” Courtney said.

The ACLU chapter agrees with

The second option is to set a

said. “It’s something tangible.”
But the city staff is not in favor
of this standard because “the add-
ed precision comes at great price
for the city, both fnancially and
operationally. There is a substan-
tial risk that a decibel-based stan-
dard would be much less effective
than the competing standards
when it comes to enforceability
and comprehensibility by the pub-
lic,” according to a memorandum
by staff attorney Scott Miller.
The third option is the “plainly
audible” standard, also known as
the “clearly audible” standard. Ac-
cording to Miller’s memorandum,
the time of day and distance from
a sound source or property line
would determine whether the
noise ordinance was violated. Un-
like the decibel option, the human
ear would measure the noise.
Regardless of what the city
commission decides, the Univer-
sity Place Neighborhood Asso-
ciation wants the city to actively
enforce noise violations. “I feel
it is critical that the city work to
preserve our neighborhood’s way
of life,” said Kim Kreicker, former
president of the association.
Commissioner David Schaun-
er said he would like to see the
University take an active role in
keeping students from violating
the noise ordinance.
“The University is in a unique
position because they have in-
fuence over students,” he said.
“I don’t know how the students
would feel about this, but I know
this is done at other universities.”
The ACLU chapter and Delta
Force have been researching the
ordinance since the beginning of
the fall. They looked at ordinances
from other cities, like Tuscaloosa,
Ala., to see what options would
work in a city like Lawrence. Tus-
caloosa uses the decibel level op-
tion. La Mort said he talked with
Tuscaloosa’s city attorney, Robert
Ennis, to see if the option worked
there. Ennis said that it worked
well and kept party noise down.
The group’s most recent ac-
tion was during student elections.
Delta Force wrote petitions in fa-
vor of the ordinance’s changes.
Stubblefeld said that they
weren’t just getting signatures but
also raising awareness. “A lot of
people were surprised about what
was going on,” she said. “The pe-
titions were defnitely effective.”
The march will begin at 6 p.m.
at 1236 Louisiana St., weather
permitting. La Mort said it was
hard to tell how many people
were going to attend, but he said
they expected somewhere be-
tween 20 and 40 people.
At the meeting, the City Com-
mission might make changes to
one of the nine exceptions of the
noise ordinance under construc-
tion noise. The commission may
modify this particular exception
in regard to construction opera-
tion and nighttime hours.

All of the patients in the CDC
investigation who remembered
their contact solutions reported us-
ing one from Bausch and Lomb.
How it happens
In order for the fungus to af-
fect the eye, it must penetrate
the upper-most layer, said Beat-
ty Suiter, opthamologist at Law-
rence Eye Care Associates, 1112
W. 6th St. Contact lenses can
make scratches on the cornea
that allow the fungus to enter.
Contacts also deprive the cor-
nea of oxygen, Suiter said. Oxy-
gen helps keep the layer around
the cornea thick. Contacts weak-
ens the skin of the cornea, making
it more susceptible to abrasions.
Wearing contacts overnight
continues that process. The eye-
lid and contact, paired together,
restrict the eye’s access to oxygen
during the night hours, keeping
the eye from returning to its nor-
mal, oxygenated state.
What to expect and what to do
Symptoms are similar to pink-
eye and include a red coloring of
the eye, tearing, pain, discharge
and sensitivity to light, said Patri-
cia Denning, chief of staff at Wat-
kins Memorial Health Center.
After penetration, the fungus can
grow and distort vision, she said.
Anti-fungal medication can
be used to treat keratitis. But if
medication doesn’t work, surgery
is required. Eight patients have
had to have cornea transplants,
according to the press release.
Denning said no cases had
been reported from Watkins and
the Lawrence-Douglas County
Health Department had not re-
ceived any reports as of Monday
afternoon.

Pulitzer Prize awards
evoke tears, memories

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — The staffs
of The Times-Picayune of New
Orleans and The Sun Herald of
south Mississippi captured Pu-
litzer Prizes for public service
on Monday for chronicling the
catastrophic aftermath of Hurri-
cane Katrina despite life-chang-
ing damage to their own homes
and workplaces.
Tears fowed rather than
champagne in the Times-Pica-
yune newsroom, which the
staff had to evacuate just eight
months earlier for about six
weeks.
At The Sun Herald, staff
members cheered and fought
back tears.
The Sun Herald won for its
“valorous and comprehensive
coverage ... providing a lifeline
for devastated readers” and
The Times-Picayune for its “he-
roic, multi-faceted coverage” to
“serve an inundated city even
after evacuation of the newspa-
per plant,” the Pulitzer citation
said.
The Washington Post won
four Pulitzers, The New York
Times three and The Times-Pic-
ayune and the Rocky Mountain
News each won two.
The Times-Picayune staff
was awarded a second Pulit-
zer, for breaking news, for Ka-
trina, and The Dallas Morning
News was honored “for its
vivid photographs depicting
the chaos and pain” of the di-
saster.
Like their communities, The
Sun Herald and The Times-
Picayune took a beating from
Katrina. Their buildings were
damaged, advertisers and sub-
scribers were displaced, and cir-
culation dropped.
The Times-Picayune evacu-
ated about 240 employees in
the back of newspaper delivery
trucks as water from a levee
breach rose around its plant.
Many staffers saw the disaster
unfold in their own neighbor-
hoods.
The newsroom erupted in
applause at the news of the Pu-
litzers, but there was no cham-
pagne.
“It was a national tragedy,”
said Peter Kovacs, the Times-
Picayune’s managing editor
for news. “It would not be ap-
propriate to have champagne
because of the nature of the
event.”
Executive Editor Stan Tiner
dedicated the Pulitzer to the
residents “whose magnifcent
hearts and spirit moved us every
day that we have been privileged
to tell the story of their struggle
and triumphs.”
The Park-and-Ride lot at
23rd and Iowa streets has one
advantage over the old lot: It
has a free bus system.
To alleviate some of the costs
of the new lot and buses, the
Parking Department got federal
money to pay for 80 percent of
the buses. But that money came
with a catch: The buses must
be free.
So park and riders don’t
have to worry about paying for
a bus pass for KU on Wheels.
But wait, they’re still getting a
bus pass.
That’s right, included in the
$205 for a Park and Ride pass is
a KU on Wheels bus pass.
These are students that do
not need a pass. They don’t
take the bus to school. They
use the Park and Ride. They
don’t need buses to get around
town. They have a car they can
use, which they drive to get to
school.
They don’t need buses to
get to class. They have a free
bus ride from their lot on West
Campus that drops them off a
short distance from every build-
ing on campus
So why is the Parking De-
partment still giving students
and making students pay for a
bus pass?
The new lot is being paid
for, at least in part, by all
students, faculty and staff
who pay to park on campus.
Permits are getting a $20
increase to provide funds for
the new lot and the Universi-
ty’s share of the buses.
Adding new buses will save
KU on Wheels from taking the
Park-and-Ride students on its
buses.
Those buses won’t be taking
the students who use KU on
Wheels to get from the Park-
and-Ride lot now.
So, money that those
students paid for bus passes
— and is no longer neces-
sary because of the free buses
— should go exclusively to
pay for the new lot.
Don’t change the costs,
don’t give Park-and-Ride stu-
dents a bus pass, just take the
money that would have paid
for busing and use it to pay for
parking.
Park-and-Ride only directly
benefts students who drive to
campus and are willing to park
in West Campus.
Let’s try to keep from mak-
ing all parkers pay for that
service. And let’s not give
Park-and-Ride students a
bus pass they don’t need and
won’t use.

It’s been a long ride, baby.
I’ll never forget attempting to
walk from GSP to Lewis Hall
on move-in day in the sweltering
August heat and getting lost at 17th
and Louisiana. Don’t ask why or
how, but I was on the corner of
a dead end, near tears when my
friend’s dad came to pick me up.
Welcome to KU, I thought.
Crap, this isn’t a good sign.
The past nine months have been
a year of frsts and a year of lasts.
It’s the frst time I’m going to walk
down the hill at Commencement,
and one of my fnal experiences
being in Memorial Stadium. My
frst time not stressing out picking
classes for the fall and my last move
out of my sorority house.
In a way, I long for the 19-
year-old emotional basketcase
dropped off at GSP four years
ago. I knew that year would
be trying. I was excited to start
college, but that was heavily
overshadowed by my parents’
moving 1,700 miles away.
As I prepare myself to leave
everything I have known and
loved for the past four years,
there is something that needs
to be instilled in returning stu-
dents: Tradition.
I still get chills when I see the
video before football games and
get weak in the knees watching the
video in Allen Fieldhouse when
they play the historic recap on the
scoreboard. It is one of those things
you can’t quite put your fnger on,
but it’s a mixture of the illumination
of great player’s names, the beat of
the music and the game highlights I
can’t get out of my head.
Freshman, sophomores and
juniors, there is something you
need to realize during the rest
of your time at the University of
Kansas. This is not high school;
no one cares how big your house
is or if your parents are doctors
or lawyers. It’s not a matter of
family pride or relishing if you
came from Johnson or Wyan-
dotte County. As soon as you
make the decision to attend KU,
you join the Jayhawk nation and
everything that encompasses it.
The University is about con-
vocation, basketball games and
homecoming. It’s about buildings
that have a story, the Campanile
(and the hundreds of ways that
people mispronounce it) and the
Chi Omega fountain. Most impor-
tantly, it is bigger than the students
who are here now, who carry an
important responsibility to uphold
the traditions. Know that the
things that you are doing are not
trivial nor a waste of time, but the
refection of 134 years of history.
While neat events are spread
throughout the academic year,
one of my favorites was Traditions
Night, held every August as part
of Hawk Week, in Memorial Sta-
dium. Two freshmen are selected
every year to be passed a torch, a
practice that symbolizes the passing
of knowledge. Sometimes these
students are Jayhawks through
multiple generations, and others
they the frst in their family to go
to college. There are speakers and
members of the administration and
Student Senate who welcome you
to the University and all of that
formal bureaucratic stuff.
Chancellor Hemenway’s
words at that event, my fresh-
man year in 2002, have always
stuck with me. He told us to
look around and of the 2,500 in
attendance, a little less than half
would graduate. I was amazed by
this and immediately wondered
who would not be here with me
in 2006. It is not until now that
I realize how this event really
comes full circle: I attended Tra-
ditions Night my freshman year,
and I will end my years here with
graduation in the stadium.
All I ask is take the time to learn
about the campus you walk on
every day. Hear the stories about
haunted areas and architects who
committed suicide off of a building
because it was built backwards.
Become your own mythbuster and
dedicate yourself to discovering if
these rumors are true.
When I walk down the Hill in
May, there will be a lot of memories
circling in my head. But there will
be one thing I won’t forget long
after my time as a Jayhawk has
ended: The traditions that come
with bleeding crimson and blue.
n Gold is an Overland Park
senior in journalism and
political science.
I am an unabashed fan of the
liberal arts, all of them, as well
as the other various professions
taught on this campus.
In fact it is this love of all
that is interdisciplinary that has
prevented me from pursuing
a graduate degree for the time
being — those programs are so
specifc!
So, normally I would not be
holding up any one feld as more
important than any other, but
with only a few weeks left here at
the University, I must say it once
and for all: If we as a society
don’t make the teaching of his-
tory more of a priority, then the
Republic will fall into tatters.
If you want apologies for be-
ing so apocalyptic then you will
be disappointed.
As George Santayana once
wrote, “A country without
memory is a country of mad-
men.”
History is the absolute life-
blood of a democratic republic;.
It is a record of where we’ve
been, that we may chart where
to go next.
History is more than just
dates of events and statues of
generals. It is the tapestry onto
which we see the ideals and
pitfalls of human beings striving
for justice or greed.
But our history is in peril in a
time when it is needed most.
A front-page story in the
New York Times of a few weeks
ago stated that many schools
across the nation are cutting
back on subjects — history as
well as arts and sciences — in
response to the emphasis of the
No Child Left Behind act on
testing profciency in reading
and math.
While no one doubts that
students must read and calcu-
late, does anyone believe that
those students will then be able
to fully participate in society?
We have allowed our schools
to become factories for creat-
ing consumers, not citizens; for
training workers, not producers;
for teaching the basics, without
a thirst for anything more.
Through history, those fac-
tory walls come down, exposing
each of us to a world greater
than ourselves, but within us at
the same time.
The analytical tools and
mindset of history are useful in
every profession. My decision
to go into journalism and pub-
lishing, not just my love of Civil
War battlefelds, led me to the
history department.
Thomas Carlyle wrote that
“The history of the world is but
the biography of great men.”
He should’ve left a word out of
there to make it more accurate:
‘great’.
It’s a big world out there, and
there are plenty of stories to
tell. So read a book, and start
writing your own.

Catholic unity should be praised
Richard Martinez, I am very
sorry for the obviously poor
experience you have had with
the Catholic Church thus far. I
know that, unfortunately, you
are not alone in your opinions.
It saddens me, because you are
missing out on the many, many
joys that so many of us have as
members of the Church. We are
not mindless machines just wait-
ing for the next command. We are
strongly individualistic with our
own opinions and issues. What we
share is a beautiful, common faith.
One-sixth of the world’s
population — more than 1 billion
people — is Catholic. It is the
largest Christian church in the
world. There is only one Catholic
Church. I couldn’t even begin to
count the number of non-Catholic
churches out there who have done
exactly what you prescribe for
Catholics: Interpreted the Bible
for themselves. It doesn’t seem
to have given them much unity.
We have unity because we have
shepherds to guide us: The Pope,
bishops and priests.
I invite you to get to know the
priests at the St. Lawrence Catho-
lic Campus Center. You might
begin to understand why more
than 20 adults — mostly students
— were baptized, confrmed or
both at the Center’s Easter Vigil on
Saturday night. You might begin
to understand the true joy and
peace that so many of us have in
our lives.
St. Augustine said that our
hearts are restless until they rest
in the Lord. I invite you to fnd
peace in your heart.

ORANJESTAD, Aruba — A
19-year-old man detained in the
disappearance of a young Ala-
bama woman had never fgured
in the case before, lawyers said
Monday, prompting speculation
that authorities were taking a
new approach to the case.
The announcement that some-
one was being held in the disap-
pearance of Natalee Holloway
nearly a year ago was the frst
major development in months
in the case, which has featured
several false leads. Before Sat-
urday’s arrest, seven people had
been detained previously in the
case and later released.
Lawyers for a Dutch youth
and two Surinamese brothers
jailed as suspects but later re-
leased due to insuffcient evi-
dence said the 19-year-old had
not previously been mentioned
in connection with the case.
“This may be a watershed
moment,” said Joseph Tacopina,
who represents Joran van der
Sloot, the Dutch teen who was
with Holloway in the hours be-
fore she disappeared on May 30.
“I don’t think they are casually
questioning him in this case.”
John Q. Kelly, a lawyer for the
Holloway family, said he was
told by Aruban prosecutors that
the detainee had friends in com-
mon with Joran van der Sloot
and the Surinamese brothers.
“The information this indi-
vidual picked up is informa-
tion related to the other three
suspects,” Kelly said Monday
on NBC’s “Today” show. “I was
told it’s not a case breaker. It’s
one step in the process.”
The detainee’s name has been
reported by some media outlets,
but Aruban authorities have
only released his age and initials
— “G.V.C.” He was scheduled
to make his frst court appear-
ance Tuesday, the prosecutor’s
offce said.
Tacopina, who said his in-
vestigators had been in contact
with Aruban authorities, said
“G.V.C” was detained because
police recovered a shirt belong-
ing to him with “relevant foren-
sic information” from the south
side of the Dutch Caribbean is-
land of about 72,000 people.
The prosecutor’s offce has
declined to specify the detainee’s
alleged connection to Holloway
— who was last seen leaving a
bar with van der Sloot and the
two Surinamese brothers, Deep-
ak and Satish Kalpoe.
Van der Sloot’s father told
The Associated Press that his
son had never met the 19-year-
old detainee.
“Joran did not know him at
all,” said Paulus van der Sloot,
a former island justice offcial
who also was detained and later
released on suspicion of in-
volvement in Holloway’s disap-
pearance.
Ronny Wix, a lawyer who
represents the Kalpoe brothers,
said he was not yet sure whether
his clients knew the detainee
but thought that they would
eventually be cleared of any in-
volvement.
“There is no evidence that my
clients have anything to do with
the disappearance of Natalee
Holloway,” Wix said.
Tacopina said the detention
of “G.V.C.” was good news for
his client because it suggested
that the investigation was head-
ing in a new direction.
“This kid has been under an
umbrella of suspicion for 11
months based on no evidence,”
he said. Van der Sloot has said
he left Holloway, then 18, at a
beach near her hotel after they
kissed on the fnal night of her
high school graduation trip.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
ALEXANDRIA, Va. — A de-
fense psychologist testifed Mon-
day that Zacarias Moussaoui
was a paranoid schizophrenic
with delusions. The defense
lawyers presented additional
evidence that the confessed
Sept. 11 conspirator believed he
would be freed from prison by
President Bush.
Psychologist Xavier Amador
testifed that Moussaoui dis-
played symptoms of the brain
disorder, including delusions
and disorganized thoughts and
speech.
Amador has never examined
Moussaoui, who refused to see
him. He said his diagnosis was
based, in part, on conclusions of
other mental-health profession-
als and an analysis of Mouss-
aoui’s actions and writings, in-
cluding numerous rambling and
abusive legal motions Mouss-
aoui fled during the 18 months
he represented himself.
Last week, in his second ap-
pearance as a witness, the 37-
year-old Frenchman reiterated
his stunning earlier testimony
that he was to hijack a ffth jet-
liner on Sept. 11 and fy into the
White House — a plan he had
said for years was intended for
a later date. He said he dreamed
Bush would release him before
leaving offce in 2009 as part of a
prisoner exchange for U.S. troops
captured abroad. He is convinced
that Bush will do this.
One of Moussaoui’s guards at
the Alexandria jail, called by the
defense Monday, offered more
details of Moussaoui’s vision.
Sheriff’s Deputy Vikas Ohri said
Moussaoui had told him that
after Bush freed him, he would
“fy to London, write a book,
make some money and go back
to the mountains of Afghanistan
and be al-Qaida.”
Struggling to save Moussaoui
from execution, court-appointed
defense lawyers called a clinical
social worker, Moussaoui’s high
school friends and his older sis-
ters to try to offset his second
damaging appearance on the
witness stand last week. Clinical
social worker Jan Vogelsang tes-
tifed that it was not her purpose
to make excuses for Moussaoui’s
actions but to understand how
he had reached that point.

Editor’s note: Women’s basketball writer Ryan
Schneider predicts, by class, who will return to
the team next season and what kind of contri-
butions these players will have.
SeniorS:
Shaquina Mosley: Mosley played her best basketball
of the year in the season’s fnal
three games of the Big 12 Tourna-
ment and the WNIT. She scored
a career-high 11 points in the
season-ending loss to Mississippi
in the WNIT. Against the Rebels,
Mosley slashed through the lane
and got to the free-throw line on
numerous occasions. Mosley, 2005
National Junior College Player of
the Year, spent the beginning of the season adjust-
ing to play at the Division I level. It was her frst
season at Kansas after two years at Northern Ari-
zona. Look for Mosley to see signifcant minutes
next season alongside point guard Ivana Catic.
Sharita Smith: Throughout the season, Smith proved
herself to be the best defender on
the team. She held several of the
Big 12’s best guards to single-
digit point totals. Smith, how-
ever, struggled to fnd a rhythm
offensively for most of the sea-
son. Her most notable shot was a
half-court three-pointer that she
banked in with the clock expir-
ing on the frst half in the victory
against New Orleans. Smith could work her way
into the starting rotation next season if she im-
proves her scoring ability.
JuniorS:
Taylor Mcintosh: McIntosh started nearly every
game for the second consecu-
tive season in the paint for the
Jayhawks. Though not the focus
of the Kansas offense, she scored
in all but three games, including
four games in double-fgures. The
junior forward’s presence was
mainly felt on the defensive end
with her defense and rebound-
ing. She averaged nearly six
rebounds a game on the season.
McIntosh’s solid defense and rebounding ability
should make her an everyday starter for Kansas
next season.
Jaime Boyd: Boyd, along with Marija Zinic, saw
action off the bench this season.
She tied her career-high with six
points against Baylor. Along with
McIntosh and former Jayhawk
Crystal Kemp, Boyd was named
to the Academic All-Big 12 First
team. Boyd could see minutes off
the bench next season with con-
tinued offensive and defensive
development.
SophoMoreS:
Sophronia Sallard: She was able to come off the
bench and give Kansas much
needed size at the guard posi-
tion. Sallard was also able to
defend many of the Big 12’s
taller guards. Sallard did not
play in the season’s fnal seven
games with an undisclosed
medical condition. If healthy,
Sallard could be a diffcult
match-up for opponents next
season because of her height. At 5-foot-10, Sal-
lard handles the ball like a guard, but can also
score in the paint.
ivana Catic: Catic suffered through
growing pains in her frst season as
Kansas’ point guard. Despite being
a pass-frst guard, Catic was also
able to score in all but three games.
At times, she struggled defensively
against some of the Big 12’s more
experienced guards. She will be the
Jayhawks only returning starter in
the back court.

Staying in the hunt
Midweek
game key
for Kansas
postseason
By aliSSa BaueR
[email protected]
kansan staff writer
Kansas will get a shot to clean
up in a midweek game after a
messy weekend when it plays
Missouri State at 6 tonight at
Hoglund Ballpark.
Fortunately for the team,
Missouri State will hobble into
tonight’s match-up after an even
more brutal weekend.
Dropping two of three games
to Oklahoma State this week-
end has the Kansas in search
of much-needed midweek vic-
tories, which are vital for an
NCAA tournament berth.
“We just need to continue to
win and fnd ways to win se-
ries,” Kansas coach Ritch Price
said seemingly unfazed by Mis-
souri State’s weekend.
Missouri State (19-13, 5-4)
traveled to Wichita State last
weekend and was swept by the
Shockers. The Bears haven’t
beaten the Shockers in their
past nine meetings.
Wichita State outscored Mis-
souri State 23-10 in the frst two
games of the three-game series
before jumping out to an 8-0
lead in the series fnale on Sun-
day.
The Bears pulled out a re-
spectable comeback, scoring
four in the eighth and three more
runs in the top of the ninth, but
still fell to the Shockers 8-7.

Plans for change under way
By eRic JoRgenSen
[email protected]
kansan staff writer
At least one member of the Kan-
sas Athletics department is excited
about the possibilities a proposed
rule change could bring to the bas-
ketball schedule.
If the NCAA approves the change,
teams would be allowed to play in an
early season invitational tournament
every year.
Teams may play in two tourna-
ments every four years. Kansas usu-
ally spreads its tournaments out so
that it plays in one tournament every
other year.
The NCAA Board of Directors
will hold a meeting on April 27 to
decide if the rule change will pass.
If it does, the rule change will take
effect on Aug. 1.
“That’s our goal, to play in one ev-
ery year,” said Larry Keating, senior
associate athletics director.
If the rule change goes through,
the start of the season would be
moved back one week earlier to the
second Friday in November. The
maximum number of regular season
games a team could play before the
conference games would raise to 31,
according to a press release issued by
the NCAA.

Editor’s note: Big 12 base-
ball reporter Shawn Shroyer
writes a story every Tuesday
about the previous week’s Big
12 baseball action.
Kansas is coming off its frst
Big 12 series loss in three weeks,
but with its victory on Sunday,
the team moved up to a fourth-
place tie in the Big 12.
The Jayhawks received a
huge lift this weekend with the
return of senior infelder Jared
Schweitzer and his .366 batting
average. The team is still with-
out sophomore second baseman
Ryne Price, who went under
the knife again last week to re-
pair damage to his wrist. Coach
Ritch Price said he expected the
second baseman to be out ap-
proximately two weeks.
Senior shortstop Ritchie Price
set two Kansas career records
last the weekend.

The NBA playoffs, lasting
from late April to the middle of
June, are only days away. Some
basketball fans revel in the glory
of the best teams and players in
the world fnally giving their all
to win, a trait not consistently
seen during the regular season.
Others, however, aren’t excited
at all.
Typical NBA haters, and
there are many out there, say the
regular season is meaningless
and flled with lackluster play
because too many teams make
the playoffs. For most, not every
game matters.
Good point. Sixteen of the
30 teams in the NBA qualify for
postseason play. Should more
than half the teams make the
playoffs? No way. The NBA
should cut the feld in half by
only allowing four teams from
each conference to make the
playoffs.
The NBA’s
E a s t e r n
Conference
makes a con-
vincing argu-
ment for this
move. Depending on the last
two games of the regular season,
the conference’s fve, six, seven
and eight seeds could fnish the
82-game regular season with
a losing record. That’s not fair.
Losers shouldn’t get a chance to
play for a championship.
If the NBA were to make this
move, the grueling amount of
time the playoffs take would be
reduced, the postseason match-
ups would be much more com-
petitive and interesting from
the start and the regular sea-
son games would mean twice
as much as they do now. Every
team would fght as hard as it
could from
the begin-
ning of the
season to the
end, trying
to earn one
of the four
coveted playoff spots in its con-
ference.
A move this drastic should
also come with a realignment of
the divisions. As of now, each
conference has three divisions.
The winners of each earn one
of the top three playoff seeds,
regardless of their records.
For example, this year the
three seed in the Western Con-
ference is the Denver Nuggets,
a team that could fnish with
a worse record than the seven
seed, again depending on what
happens in the last two games
of the regular season. The Nug-
gets only earned that spot by
fnishing frst in the conference’s
weakest division. In an NBA
playoffs with only four spots per
conference, a team like Denver
does not deserve to be includ-
ed.
To solve this problem, each
conference should only have
two divisions, with two playoff
wildcards. This would allow for
the absolute best competition
and the most exciting way for
the NBA championship to be
decided.
So are you listening, NBA?
Do you want your regular sea-
son and playoffs to be more
exciting? Do you want to gen-
erate more fan interest? Then
do yourself a favor and take my
advice.

During a weekend of unpre-
dictable weather, Kansas men’s
golf coach Ross Randall also got
a few surprises from the bottom
of the lineup.
With leaders Gary Woodland,
junior, and Pete Krsnich, senior,
struggling to fnd the fairway at
last weekend’s U.S. Intercol-
legiate, the team relied on the
productive play
of junior Tyler
Docking to stay
in contention.
Docking put to-
gether two solid
rounds of 71
and 75.
The Jay-
hawks fnished
in a tie for 11th
place out of 17 teams, which in-
cluded some of the nation’s best
teams. The third round was can-
celed because of poor weather,
but the Jayhawks posted team
scores of 301 and 302 in the frst
two rounds.
The scores were high on the
course that punished players
with foot-deep rough and all-
around soggy conditions.
“The golf course was extreme-
ly diffcult because they haven’t
had a chance to cut the grass
in about three weeks,” Randall
said. “The rough was as thick as
these guys have ever played.”
Randall has shuffed the line-
up repeatedly in recent weeks
in search of consistent play
heading into next week’s Big
12 Championship. Docking’s
emergence might have reassured
Randall that the team would be
deep enough to enjoy postsea-
son success.
“Tyler played pretty well, and
for us to be a good team, we
need him to be in the lineup
playing well,” Randall said.
Docking, who struggled to
fnd his stroke early in the sea-
son, said he was confdent about
his game going into the Big 12
Championship.
“I really played great at this
tournament; so in terms of my
confdence and ability level, I’m
really above and beyond any-
where I’ve been this year,” Dock-
ing said.
Docking’s frst-round 71
helped him fnish in a tie for
15th place individually. Senior
Luke Trammell put together two
strong rounds to fnish in a tie
for 43rd, while redshirt freshman
Zach Pederson rode a strong frst
round and tied for 54th.
Woodland and Krsnich round-
ed out the Jayhawk scores, tieing
for 63rd and 81st.
UCLA edged out USC to take
the team honors, and Stanford’s
sophomore Rob Grube shot a
second-round 64 to grab frst
place individually.

PITTSBURGH — Albert Pu-
jols tied a major-league record
with a home run in his fourth
consecutive at-bat, Jason Mar-
quis pitched eight innings of
three-hit ball and the St. Louis
Cardinals defeated the Pitts-
burgh Pirates 2-1 Monday
night.
A day after hitting three hom-
ers, including a gamer-winner,
Pujols homered to center off Pi-
rates starter Paul Maholm (0-2)
in the top of the frst to give the
Cardinals a 2-0 lead.
Pujols doubled in his next at-
bat in the third and walked his
next time up before fying out to
left in the seventh.
It was the 35th time in Ma-
jor League history that a player
has homered in four straight
at-bats. Carlos Delgado, then
with the Toronto Blue Jays, last
did it Sept. 25, 2003. The previ-
ous time it was accomplished in
the National League was by the
Atlanta Braves’ Andruw Jones
from Sept.7-10, 2002.
Pujols joins Stan Musial (July
7-8, 1962) as the lone Cardinals
player to do so.
Jason Isringhausen allowed a
lead-off double to Jack Wilson
in the ninth before retiring the
middle of the Pittsburgh lineup
— Jason Bay, Jeromy Burnitz
and Craig Wilson — for his
fourth save.
The Cardinals have won three
straight games.
Marquis (3-0) had allowed
only one hit and two baserun-
ners through seven innings
before the Pirates scored their
only run in the eighth when
pinch-hitter Nate McLouth sin-
gled in Jose Castillo, who had
doubled.
Pittsburgh’s only other hit
Chris Duffy’s slow dribbler past
Marquis that the speedy out-
felder beat out for a single.
Marquis retired 14 in a row in
one stretch. The only other bas-
erunner for Pittsburgh against
Marquis was Bay, who drew a
two-out walk in the frst.
Marquis, who struck out only
two, has won each of his three
starts this season.
Maholm entered the game
with a 7.71 ERA but had his
best start of the young season,
permitting only two runs on
seven hits in six innings.
The Cardinals’ John Rodri-
guez was a late scratch from
the lineup due to an allergic
reaction to something he ate,
team officials said. St. Louis
is 31-10 lifetime at PNC Park
and has the most wins of any
visiting club.

Because of her experience this
season, Catic will be one of
Kansas’ top scorers next sea-
son. Alongside Mosley, Kansas
will have two of the confer-
ence’s fastest guards, especially
in transition.
Marija Zinic: Zinic was arguably
the team’s most
improved play-
er. She spent
part of the
season adjust-
ing to playing
basketball in
America, after
growing up
in Serbia and
Montengnegro. Zinic began to
develop a total game, offensive-
ly and defensively, coming off
the bench in Kansas’ postsea-
son tournaments. She fnished
the season with a career-high
17 points in the WNIT loss
to Mississippi. Along with
McIntosh, Zinic will be looked
at Kansas’ potential starters in
the post. Zinic could have a big
season next year if she’s able to
use her strong fnish to season
as motivation for the upcoming
season.
Jen Orgas: Orgas saw action in
fve games this
season. She
scored a career-
high six points
in her second
game of the
season against
New Orleans.
In limited
action, Orgas
proved she
could play either post position
and score or draw the foul. She
could see action off the bench
next season with continued
development on the offensive
and defensive ends.
Katie Smith: Smith, a walk-on
from Omaha,
Neb., will be-
gin next sea-
son looking for
her frst career
points. She saw
playing time
in three games
this season, and
could also see
action off the
bench next season, especially
after going against Kemp in
practice for a season.

The team plans on playing
in the Las Vegas Invitational
next season if the rule change
passes. In the tournament,
Kansas would play two games
in Allen Fieldhouse and two
games in Las Vegas, Keating
said.
Kansas would play Florida in
one of the Las Vegas games.
Keating said Kansas would
play in the Preseason NIT
in New York City’s Madison
Square Garden in 2007.
Last season, Florida played in
and won the Preseason NIT.
In 2008 the team would play
in the Guardian’s Tournament
in Kansas City, Mo. In this year’s
Guardian Tournament, Texas
beat West Virginia to win the
tournament. Kansas would re-
turn to Maui for the 2009-2010
season.
Often, some of the best teams
in the nation play in these early
tournaments. Kansas played in
the Maui Invitational this sea-
son, which featured NCAA tour-
nament teams Gonzaga, Michi-
gan State, Connecticut, Arizona
and Arkansas. Connecticut won
the tournament.
With so many talented
teams playing in these tour-
naments, the likelihood of
Kansas playing high-qual-
ity teams early in the season
could increase.
If a team chose not to play in
a tournament, the NCAA would
push for a rule that allowed
teams to play 29 games in a sea-
son. The NCAA press release
said this would allow teams that
did not play in a tournament to
play a similar amount of games.

BOSTON — The Kenyan
national anthem got its annu-
al airplay in the Back Bay on
Monday after another Boston
Marathon sweep.
It was the Americans, though,
who were boasting of a break-
through.
Robert Cheruiyot fnished in
2 hours, 7 minutes, 14 seconds
to nip the course record by a
single second, and Rita Jeptoo
won the women’s race for Ke-
nya’s fourth sweep since 2000.
With fve American men in the
top 10 — including Nos. 3, 4

its best fnish since the addition
of prize money in 1986 helped
bring back the top international
felds.
“It’s exciting to see a lot of
American guys run well,” said
Olympic silver medalist Meb
Kefezighi, who was third be-
hind Cheruiyot and Kenya’s
Benjamin Maiyo. “The crowd
was just phenomenal. When
they were chanting, ‘Go USA!
Go Meb! Go USA!’ I was like,
‘I’m glad I’m here.’”
Kefezighi, a naturalized citi-
zen from Eritrea who lives in
San Diego, ran with the leaders
until the 16th mile and then be-
gan falling behind.
Brian Sell, from Rochester,
Mich., was fourth, catching
Alan Culpepper around the last
turn before the Copley Square
fnish.
“When Brian went by me, I
thought he was some guy that
jumped on the course,” Cul-
pepper said, evoking memories
of 1980 shortcut-taker Rosie
Ruiz.
“We don’t talk about this
anymore here,” moderator
Frank Shorr joked.
Culpepper, from Lafayette,
Colo., was fourth last year, a
performance that matched the
best U.S. fnish since 1987.
The last American to win in
Boston was Lisa Larsen-Wei-
denbach in 1985; no American
man has won since Greg Meyer
in 1983, and 12 times since then
there have been no Americans
in the top 10.
“For those of us who are in it
and make our profession, we’re
probably not as surprised as oth-
er people. We’ve seen this com-
ing for a while. We’ve seen this
building,” Culpepper said. “I
think it is a new day, for sure.”
Cheruiyot and Jeptoo each
claim an olive wreath, a bowl of
beef stew and a $100,000 frst
prize. Kenyan men have won
14 of the last 16 Boston titles
and its women have won three
in a row and six of seven.
“I think we’d given in to the
fact that the East Africans are
supposed to dominate the race,”
said Kevin Hanson, whose club
in Rochester, Mich., trained
seven of the top 22 men’s fn-
ishers. “And we haven’t come
up with a reason why.”
Four of Kenya’s women’s ti-
tles belong to Catherine Ndere-
ba, who was not in the feld this
year. Defending men’s champi-
on Hailu Negussie dropped out
just after the halfway point with
stomach problems that usually
indicate dehydration.
Cheruiyot had no such trou-
bles. He let Maiyo set a blister-
ing pace and ran off his shoul-
der before taking the lead going
up one of the Newton Hills. He
came onto Boylston Street —
the last stretch — with almost
a minute to break the record,
then sprinted the last 50 yards
as volunteers waved for him to
hurry.
“I think, ‘No,’” he said. “And
then I see I can make it.”

Greg Griesenaver/KANSAN
ARIES (March 21-April 19) HHHH
Your efforts don’t go unnoticed, yet the per-
sonal toll could be greater than anticipated.
As a result, you might go into full grump
mode. Listen more to what is being shared
among those in the know.
Tonight: Yes, you will need to be a dominant
force.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHHHH
Relate to and work with each individual as
if he or she is the most important person in
your life at that moment. You might want to
think through a decision that involves those
around you. Reactions, as you’ll see, might
be strong.
Tonight: Relax to good music.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHH
Others let you know what they want and
expect. It is your call if you are going to
give it to them. Think positively and create
more of what you want. You easily could
overspend. Curb uncontrolled wildness.
Tonight: As you like it.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHHHH
You might be more pushed than you realize
and need to take a break. Think about what
must be done as opposed to what you are
going to get done. Be positive about your
alternatives. Good things will happen.
Tonight: Take a break from the pressure.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHH
You have the ability to creatively adjust.
You might want to carefully rethink your
priorities. If you want to make a move, you
will need to investigate and get feedback.
Evaluate more of what you feel, and situa-
tions will work.
Tonight: Put your feet up.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHH
You are coming from a solid space and
might want to rethink a personal matter
more carefully. As you evaluate an event,
you could decide on a major risk or change.
Brainstorm but be open to potential
changes.
Tonight: Full of folly and laughter.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHH
You are able to do things much differently
than in the past. Relax and enjoy yourself
with those in your immediate circle. Do
not take another’s comment seriously. This
person could be having more diffculty than
you realize.
Tonight: At home.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHHH
Your budget might be your highest priority,
but at the moment you could have diffculty
turning a situation around. You might be
much happier if you relax. Decisions don’t
have to be made immediately.
Tonight: As you like.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHH
Risking might be important in order to ac-
complish what you want. Can you afford it
-- either emotionally or fnancially -- if you
fall fat on your face? Make your fnancial
well-being an even high priority.
Tonight: Listen to another’s comments. You
don’t have to act on them.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHH
Step back. Timing is working for you, as
you will notice later today. You have seen
different problems come up. Handle them,
but only when you are ready and sure of
yourself. Many different elements will work
together.
Tonight: As you like.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHH
Move during the daylight hours, when you
are a force to behold. You will like what
goes on a lot more if you relax and think in
terms of progress. Friends point out the path
that leads to where you want to go.
Tonight: Hide out with a favorite person.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHH
Instigate changes and assume a more
powerful stand. You will have a lot to do and
accomplish. On some level you might be
totally overwhelmed. Listen to what is being
shared on a deeper level.
Tonight: Find your pals.

Midweek
continued from page 1B
The Bears lead the all-time
series against the Jayhawks, 22-
18. In the pair’s last meeting,
Missouri State had its way with
Kansas, beating the Jayhawks
easily in Springfeld, Mo., 15-6.
But now?
“They’re just trying to fnd a
way to bounce right back,” Price
said. “They’re doing what good
coaches do on a losing streak
— fnd a way to get a ‘W.’”
Sitting at the third spot in the
Missouri Valley Conference, the
Bears are hitting .270 as a team,
only slightly less than the Jay-
hawks .286 team batting average.
At the plate, third baseman
Brayden Drake went 3-5 and drove
in three runs in Sunday’s loss to
Wichita State. Drake’s four hom-
ers tied him for the team lead while
his 22 RBI topped the Bears hit-
ters. On the home front, freshman
frst baseman Preston Land went
4-10 against the Cowboys, gather-
ing fve RBI and two long balls, his
ffth and sixth of the year.
With the same overall and con-
ference records, Kansas is tied
with Baylor for fourth in the Big
12 standings. Tonight’s match-up
will hold more weight than a mere
win or loss. Tough non-conference
games help put stock in the team’s
strenght of schedule. It will be ju-
nior righthander Brendan McNa-
mara (0-1, 3.80) with the ball.
“We’ve put him in charge of that
Tuesday role,” Price said. “His frst
primary job right now is to win
those Tuesday games for us.”
McNamara has found himself
pitching in three of the Jayhawks
four mid-week games. McNamara
will throw opposite sophomore
righthander Jake Schafe (2-1, 4.40).
Schafe’s walk to strikeout ratio looks
more effective than his opponent,
throwing 25 strikeouts to 15 walks.
McNamara on the other hand has
11 strikeouts to 15 walks.

Big 12
continued from page 1B
He set the Kansas career
games played record Friday,
with 225, and the career hits
record Sunday, with 275. Price
added to the record with a base
hit in the ffth inning.
Senior closer Don Czyz add-
ed to his Kansas single-season
and career saves records with
his 13th save of the season on
Sunday.
The Jayhawks will play host
to Missouri State Tuesday, Tabor
will come to town Wednesday
and the frst game of three-game
Kansas State series will be held
at Hoglund Ballpark on Friday.
The following two will be played
in Manhattan.
No. 5 Texas vs. Baylor (April 13-15)
Texas 7, Baylor 6 (at Waco); Tex-
as 8, Baylor 6 (at Austin); Texas
5, Baylor 4 (at Austin)
Player of the series: Texas
junior outfelder Drew Stubbs
went 5-for-12 with four runs,
four RBI and his eighth and
ninth home runs of the season.
Pitcher of the series: Texas
junior right hander Kyle Mc-
Culloch was the only start-
ing pitcher in the series to go
at least fve innings and allow
no more than three runs. Mc-
Culloch struck out six in fve
innings and allowed just two
earned runs.
Note: Texas’ April 11 loss to
UT-Arlington was its frst non-
conference loss since March 11
against Long Beach State.
Texas A&M at No. 4 Nebraska
(April 13-15)
Nebraska 5, Texas A&M 4; Ne-
braska 4, Texas A&M 3; Nebras-
ka 6, Texas A&M 0
Player of the series: Nebras-
ka sophomore infelder Ryan
Wehrle overcame an 0-for-3 day
— including two errors in the
feld — on Thursday to go 4-for-
7 with a run and two RBI the f-
nal two games of the series.
Pitcher of the series: All Ne-
braska starters. Junior righty Joba
Chamberlain (5-2), sophomore
lefty Tony Watson (6-0) and soph-
omore righty Johnny Dorn (6-2)
earned victories last weekend.
The trio pitched a combined 24.1
innings, allowing only four runs
on 17 hits and fve walks, while
striking out 24 Aggie batters.
Note: The Cornhuskers are on a
10-game winning streak. Their 10th
victory came after a complete game
shutout by Dorn on Saturday.
Missouri at No. 23 Oklahoma
(April 14-16)
Oklahoma 6, Missouri 4; Okla-
homa 8, Missouri 6; Oklahoma
7, Missouri 6
Player of the series: Oklaho-
ma senior infelder Ryan Roh-
linger went 7-for-13 in the series,
scoring three runs and driving in
just as many. His RBI single in
the bottom of the ninth inning
Sunday clinched the sweep for
the Sooners.
Pitcher of the series: Senior right-
hander Daniel McCutchen improved
his record to 5-5 for the Sooners on
Friday. McCutchen allowed just two
runs in seven innings.
Note: Oklahoma’s victories
on Saturday and Sunday were
of the come-from-behind vari-
ety. Oklahoma trailed Missouri
6-2 in the ninth inning Saturday
and 6-4 in the ninth Sunday, and
didn’t score in the ninth inning
of either game until it was down
to its last out.
Kansas State at Texas Tech
(April 13-15)
Texas Tech 4, Kansas State 2;
Kansas State 16, Texas Tech 5;
Kansas State 11, Texas Tech 11
Player of the series: Kansas
State senior outfelder Barrett
Rice went 6-for-14, crossed the
plate six times, recorded two
RBI and stole a base.
Pitcher of the series: Fresh-
man righty Morgan Miles (5-4)
got the victory for Texas Tech
on Thursday in complete-game
fashion. In nine innings, Mor-
gan allowed just two runs and
struck out eight.
Note: Saturday’s 11-11 tie
marked the second time in Big
12 history that a game ended in
a tie. Texas Tech was involved on
the frst occasion, tying Oklaho-
ma, 7-7, on April 22, 2001. The
last time Kansas State played to
a tie was March 20, 1982 against
Northwest Missouri State. The
game ended in a 5-5 tie.

Two players named
in rape indictment
DURHAM, N.C. — A grand
jury issued sealed indictments
Monday against two members
of the Duke University lacrosse
team in connection with allega-
tions that a stripper was raped
last month at a team party, a
source close to the case told The
Associated Press.
The source, speaking on
condition of anonymity, said
he did not know which players
were indicted or what charges
they faced.
The grand jury adjourned
around 2 p.m., handing up in-
dictments later to Superior Court
Judge Ronald Stephens. A fling
at the courthouse said the judge
had sealed one indictment,
citing a state law that allows an
indictment to be kept secret until
the defendant is arrested or ap-
pears in court.
