KANSAN SENIOR STAFF WRITER
Members of Te University Daily
Kansan Board and the University of
Kansas are discussing the possibility
of consolidating the Kansans bank
accounts into one University ac-
count.
Some members of the Board are
concerned that consolidating these
accounts would give the University
control over parts of the Kansan that
are now independent from Univer-
sity governance.
Basically, the University and the
state would govern our money, said
Jonathan Kealing, Kansan editor for
Fall 2006. Tey would cut our check
and be our banker.
Right now, the discussions be-
tween the Kansan and the University
are focused solely on how to make
the Kansan operate within the Uni-
versity, state and federal fscal fnan-
cial regulations, said Ann Brill, dean
of the School of Journalism.
During Mondays meeting, the
Board came to a consensus to suggest
that the University not consolidate
the accounts, according to the meet-
ings minutes.
Kealing also added that this shif
would limit the Kansans ability to
interact with advertisers and pursue
legal actions, because the state, not
the Kansan, would decide how the
money is spent.
We wouldnt be able to do busi-
ness, Kealing said.
But the Board is not in a position
right now to know exactly what to
do, said Rick Musser, chairman of the
Kansan board.
Currently, the Kansan has two
bank accounts: A student organiza-
tion account with the University, and
another outside account at a Law-
rence bank.
Consolidating these accounts
would also move them from three
interest-bearing accounts to one
non-interest bearing account, mean-
ing the Kansan would lose between
$1,000 to $2,000 per year as a result
of lost interest, Kealing said.
Specifc laws also allow student
publications to independently gov-
ern its money, as long as all funds are
reported.
Kansas law 76-720 states that stu-
dent publications published regularly
since July 1, 1955, are able to hold ac-
counts in local banks outside of the
University.
Te Kansan has published fve
days a week during the fall and spring
semesters since Jan. 16, 1912.
However, its not uncommon for
a university to manage the funds of
a student newspaper, said Mike Hi-
estand, legal adviser for the Student
Press Law Center, a non-proft orga-
nization based in Arlington, Va.
But these days, its common prac-
tice for universities to divest them-
selves from a student-run media, in
order to shed themselves of any li-
ability, he said.
Its not common practice for inde-
pendent student publications, such
as the Kansan, to have its funds con-
trolled by a university, he said,
Tats the nature of being inde-
pendent, Hiestand said.
Only in cases where its believed
the money has been mismanaged do
universities step in and take control
of student media fnds, he said.
But thats not the case with the
Kansan.
I dont want to create concerns
that the Kansan was mismanaging
money, said Diane Goddard, Uni-
versity comptroller and associate vice
provost.
Part of the reasoning for the shif
were concerns about payroll, which
have since been resolved, Goddard
said. She added that any number of
solutions to this situation are viable,
as long as payroll runs through the
University.
Anything can be facilitated from a
comptrollers point-of-view, she said.
But a decision needs to be made.
Another reason for the shif deals
with the specifc mission of the Kan-
san.
According to article two of the
Constitution of the Kansan, the pur-
pose of the Kansan is to serve as
the of cial newspaper of the student
body of the University of Kansas and
as the laboratory newspaper of the
William Allen White School of Jour-
nalism and Mass Communications.
Because the Kansan is both an
independent newspaper and a labo-
ratory for the School of Journalism,
it allows you to look at it from many
diferent ways, Goddard said.
However, a revision to the consti-
tution is currently under review by
Chancellor Robert Hemenway that
would essentially remove the labo-
ratory designation from the docu-
ment, said Malcolm Gibson, general
manager of the Kansan.
Another concern raised was issues
relating to the First Amendment,
Musser said.
Brill, a staunch defender of the
First Amendment, said that the
School of Journalism has a responsi-
bility not only to educate its students
about the skills and ethical practices
of journalism, but also making sure
students understand the business and
fnancial aspects of journalism.
And Hiestand agrees that shifing
money to a university account isnt a
direct violation of the First Amend-
ment.
But it certainly opens the door to
allow the school to manipulate con-
tent, he said.

Lawrence residents are taking precautions af-
ter a reported rape occurred in central Lawrence
on June 13.
Te report was the third that has been made
to the Lawrence Police Department since 2004.
According to the police departments media re-
lease, it is investigating the case with the possibil-
ity that all three could be related.
Te media release stated that on June 13, an
unidentifed male entered the apartment of a
21-year-old female and sexually assaulted her. In
each case the suspect was described as a 6 foot,
white male in his 20s, with a slim build. He has
reportedly been armed during each attack.
Alix Fried, 2006 graduate who still lives in
Lawrence, said that any time a rape case is re-
ported, it raises awareness.
It comes to the surface when theres a public
instance that happened, she said.
Fried said that she makes sure to look for any-
thing suspicious when she is out at night.
No arrests have been made, but the police de-
partment is hopeful that it can identify the sus-
pect.
We will not stop until we do, Sgt. Dan Ward
said.
Ward said that there is a possibility that oth-
er victims have not yet come forward, but the
police department has signifcant evidence that
the cases are related. He said it was important to
educate people that this is a serious crime and
that it is important for people to use precaution-
ary measures.
He said it will probably take a lot of manpower
and forensic technology to identify the suspect,
however.
Laura Seger, graduate student and Lawrence
resident, said she is cautious when she is out.
I try to be alert of my surroundings, Seger
said.
Te media release asked that anyone with
information about these three crimes call the
Lawrence Police Department Detective Division
at 830-7430 or the Tips Hot Line at 843-TIPS. It
also prompted citizens to dial 911 if they notice
any suspicious activity.

In the coming weeks, the Univer-
sity of Kansas Public Safety Ofce
will move to a location that will al-
low the department more operat-
ing space. Te move is scheduled to
be completed within the next few
months.
Ralph V. Oliver, Chief/Director
for the Public Safety Ofce, said the
current building, Carruth-OLeary
Hall, is not big enough to ft all of the
needs of the department. Te Public
Safety Ofce will occupy what was
the Printing Services building, on
Bob Billings Parkway and Crestline
Drive on west campus.
Oliver said the move was about
needing more room.
Teres more space than there is
here, Oliver said.
Oliver said that he approached
the Provost office approximately
five years ago with the hopes that
Public Safety could relocate. He
said that it was simply a matter of
good timing
when the
Printing build-
ing closed.
O l i v e r
said that the
new building
would accom-
modate a va-
riety of needs
that Carruth-
OLeary could
not meet.
The new
building will
have interview
rooms for sus-
pects, an evidence room, and an
equipment room. He also said it
would have a community out-
reach room where both private
enterprises and members of the
public can make presentations
concerning matters that the office
deals with. The current building
has no space
for training the
offices employ-
ees.
Oliver said
that the new
building would
be more acces-
sible during later
hours.
We work 24
hours a day, Oli-
ver said.
One new ame-
nity that mem-
bers of the ofce
are excited about
is not so obvious, however.
Te frst thing that most people
in the ofce are excited about is there
is more parking, Oliver said.
Carruth-OLeary Hall has only
one parking lot, which is desig-
nated for patrol cars. Visitors have
to find parking that isnt directly
associated with the building.
Mark L. Reiske, R.A., Associate
Director of Budget and Design Pro-
duction, said that when the public
has a problem late at night, it can be
difcult to reach the ofce in Car-
ruth-OLeary. He said that in the
new building, there will be a moni-
tored lobby that will be open late,
whereas citizens now have to call
before they can be admitted into the
ofce.
He said that the department
had to have all of its telecom-
munications, including servers,
alarms and security cameras,
running before a move could take
place.
Until thats operational, they re-
ally cant move, he said.
Reiske said that the new building
would still be accessible to the public,
even though it wouldnt be as cen-
trally located on campus. Te ofce
will be along a bus route for students
and there will be parking available
for visitors.
Oliver said that once the de-
partment decides on a precise date
for the switch, they will begin to
advertise through local media out-
lets.
Also occupying the Printing Ser-
vices building will be the department
of entomology, according to Reiske.
Carruth-OLeary will eventually be
torn down and replaced by a new
facility that will house the School of
Business, according to Reiske. No
timetable has been set for that ac-
tion.

The new offces for the KU Public Safety Offce will be located in the old Printing Services building, 2502 Westbrook Circle, just off
of Bob Billings Parkway and Crestline Drive.
The new Public Safety

interview and
evidence rooms. The

Kansan staff writer
In an era when annual tuition increases
have become the norm, college students are
found asking themselves one common ques-
tion: Am I getting what Im paying for out of
my college education?
Administrators at the University of Kansas
would argue that the answer is yes.
Te Universitys fve-year tuition enhance-
ment plan will enter its last year this fall, as-
suming it receives approval from the Board of
Regents this week. Te plan was designed to
raise tuition in order to provide students with
amenities worthy of the best buy reputation
that the University has recently received, such
as improved technology and more faculty.
Elizabeth Spear, Kansas City, MO. senior,
said that with some exceptions like what she
considers an unnecessary logo change stu-
dents are getting what they pay for.
You get out of it what you put into it,
Spear said.
Prior to the inception of the fve-year plan,
the state provided the University with fund-
ing to make up for the diference between the
schools tuition revenue and the total expenses
spent by the University, according to Teresa
Klinkenberg, Chief Business & Financial Plan-
ning Ofcer of the University.
State support was not growing as we had
liked, Klinkenberg said.
Te state changed its funding model in
2001, using block grants and allowing the
University to keep all of the money it gener-
ated from tuition, Klinkenberg said.
Te University formed an ad hoc commit-
tee to devise a way to handle the new budget
system. Te University was considered under
funded in comparison with schools in its peer
group schools considered of similar size
and academic standing to the tune of ap-
proximately $50 million, according to the
committee. Schools in the group included
the University of Colorado, the University of
Oklahoma and the University of North Caro-
lina at Chapel Hill.
According to the Universitys Web site, In
April 2002, the committee recommended a
plan to generate $43 million over fve years for
educational enhancements and $8.6 million in
scholarships for students with unmet fnancial
need as a result of the tuition increases on the
Lawrence campus. Te amount of the tuition
enhancement is $16.50 per credit hour for each
of fve years.
William L. Eakin, Vice Provost for Ad-
ministration and Finance and assistant pro-
fessor of history, said that during the frst
four years of the plan, the University hired
approximately 70 faculty members, and au-
thorized the hiring of 35 more this year. He
also said that the University gave $5 million
for technology each year, and $3 million for
graduate teaching assistants salaries.
Faculty members are still unclear whether
or not the Board of Regents will approve the
ffh year.
Eakin said that one of the main reasons
the Regents may not approve the plan was be-
cause non-resident students paid more tuition
that those from Kansas, and so the $16.50 hike
efects them less proportionally.
We dont want to appear to be giving non-
residents a better deal, Eakin said.
Not all students are excited about the rise
in tuition.
I think the amenities that are being improved
dont directly afect me as a student, said Laura
Musonye, Kenya senior.
Musonye said that she thinks the increase
will be more benefcial to students in the future.
I think the level of education is just the
same, she said.

Future KU student dies
during trip to Costa Rica
BY ADRIENNE BOMMARITO
abommarito@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
A future University of Kansas
student was killed during an educa-
tional trip to Costa Rica on June 11.
Danielle Tongier would have been a
freshman this August.
Fellow classmates Jessica Pierce
and Andrew Harpstrite, along with
their Spanish teacher Brett Carlson,
were also killed.
Te 11 students on the trip had
been spending the afernoon on the
beach and swimming in the Pacifc
Ocean when a tidal wave came in
and pulled them under the water.
Carlson was on the beach at the
time and instructed the students to
get out of the water, but Tongier and
Harpstrite couldnt get out.
Carlson had gone into the water
to help the students, but became en-
gulfed in the water himself.
Pierce, 17, was a licensed lifeguard
and also tried to help the others, but
drowned as well.
Greg Cartwright, principal of
Labette County High School in Al-
amont where the students attended,
said two students were rescued from
the water.
He said the students described it
as a perfect afernoon for swimming
until an unexpected tidal wave came
and continued to get worse. Tey
were wading in water that came up
to their chest, then the wave came in
and they couldnt touch bottom.
Robert Buddemer, senior scien-
tist at Kansas Geological Survey, said
people who visit unfamiliar areas can
get caught in strong currants because
of inexperience swimming in those
types of water.
Before surfers ever get into the
ocean they sit on the beach and watch
the water to see how and where it
moves. Buddemer said swimmers
need to do the same thing.
You need to know something
about where you are and how the
water reacts, he said.
Tongier is remembered as a good
person by Jay Vanmiddlesworth. Van-
middlesworth taught Tongier and
coached her in tennis.
She was very happy-go-lucky
and always up-beat. Really a good
student, the type youd like to have in
your classroom, he said.
Te students and Carlson traveled

trip.
Carlson went on a similar trip
during college and thought it would
be interesting for the students.
He really liked Costa Rica and
wanted the kids to experience it,
Cartwright said.
A memorial for Tongier, Pierce,
Harpstrite and Carlson was held June
16 at 6 p.m. Tongiers funeral was on
June 17.
Cartwright said the community
is dealing with the accident well,
especially because the last body was
found at the end of last week.
It was a terrible accident. We
think everything has been recovered,
so we can get on with it, he said.

When David Hover received a
free plane ticket to anywhere in the
world, he chose to go with his stom-
achs wishes.
I was eating Tai food one day
and decided I would go there, he
said with a smile.
Hover, a recent physics graduate,
received the ticket afer a layover he
faced in Amsterdam last summer. He
lef Monday with his mother for a
two-week vacation in Tailand.
Hover became familiar with for-
eign countries early in his life. At 4
years old he moved with his family
to Sydney, Australia, because of a job
his father took.
While there, Hover dealt with
what he referred to as his physical
sob story.
He spent one month in a wheel-
chair with casts on both legs to cor-
rect a problem he had with walking
on his tip-toes. At the same time, he
also had an eye-patch covering one
eye because he had a lazy-eye.
Hover jokingly said that for enter-
tainment, he wheeled in a circle over and
over looking out of his lazy eye.
All joking aside, the doctors were
able to fx the eye problem, the casts
were removed and Hover went on to
play soccer on organized teams until
his ninth grade year.
Hover still plays soccer for fun, but
now has to concentrate on his future.
Hover will be joining the physics
graduate program at the University
of Wisconsin-Madison in August.
He said the six-year Ph.D. program
should give him enough time to de-
cide exactly what he wants to do with
his time-consuming major.
Hover is excited about his new
path, but anxious, as well. At Madi-
son, he will be a teaching assistant for
an entry-level physics course. He said
that even though he was a physicist, he
was still apprehensive about teaching,
especially classes he took years ago.
Teaching kind of scares me. You have
to know everything exactly, he said.
Hover spent his last days in Law-
rence working in the physics research
lab on campus and spending time
with family and friends.
In between his Tailand vacation
and moving to Wisconsin, Hover, who
enjoys hiking and the outdoors, will
spend one month with a friend follow-
ing the Pacifc Crest Trail in Oregon.
Despite this changing time in
Hovers life, he still takes every step
with optimism, looking forward
to the next thing. Tis free-spirit
is someone who never stops going
places or seeing things.
When asked where they will be
sleeping on their hiking trip, Hover
smiled and said, In a tent.
David Hover, Overland Park graduate, sifts through lines of computer code Thursday morning in a Mallott Hall physics lab. Hover,
who graduated in May with a physics degree, is planning a trip to Thailand and a backpacking trip to the Pacifc Crest Trail before
heading to graduate school at the University of Wisconsin-Madison to study physics.
Buses slated for improvements
By Tom SlaughTer
Kansan staff writer
Working with the city of Law-
rence, the University of Kansas has
hired a consulting frm to analyze
and improve the citys two major bus
outlets, KU on Wheels and the Law-
rence Transit System.
Daniel K. Boyle, president of Dan
Boyle & Associates, hosted the frst
of fve public meetings at City Hall
and a meeting at the Kansas Union
last week to get a feel for how both
the city and those afliated with the
University students and faculty
felt the two systems could be im-
proved.
Afer the study is completed, the
project will go through two phases,
Boyle said at the meetings. Te frst
will be the standard transit project,
intended to make the overall transit
situation in the city better. Te sec-
ond phase will see if it would be pos-
sible to intertwine both systems to
function as one unit.
Boyle said that while he was try-
ing to gain a sense of what the most
important issues were regarding
both systems, he couldnt yet tell if
the public wants to integrate the sys-
tems.
Robbie Myles, Olathe senior, said
that change was needed. Myles, who
lived at Parkway Commons, Clinton
Pkwy and Kasold, last year, didnt
own a car at the time and said he ex-
perienced problems with the current
bus system.
When I rode the t I had to catch
two buses to get where I needed to
go, Myles said of the city transporta-
tion system,
He said that it ofen would take
him 30 minutes to catch a ride to
campus, taking a bus from his apart-
ment complex to SuperTarget, and
then transferring to another bus to
get to campus. He also said that he
would have liked the buses to run
later than they did.
A lack of later running times was
just one of the complaints expressed
by meeting participants. Others in-
cluded routing, accessibility for those
with disabilities, timing for transfers,
uncleanliness and both environmen-
tal and noise pollution.
Lawrence Settles, Shawnee senior,
who attended the meeting at City
Hall, said he was happy that people
were trying to improve the bus sys-
tems.
Im an advocate for public trans-
portation, he said.
Boyles frm specializes in public
transportation, and has completed
studies in other college towns. He did
one study at the University of Nevada
at Reno, and will be conducting an-
other that will serve six universities in
Greensboro, N.C. Te current study
began last week and is scheduled to
end some time in November.

The first two times Omri Gil-
lath visited Lawrence it was snow-
ing, which was different for him,
having lived in both warm-weath-
ered Israel and California.
The social psychologist will ar-
rive at The Uni-
versity of Kan-
sas as a faculty
member in the
department of
psychology at
the beginning
of August. He is
able to join the
Universitys fac-
ulty because of
funding created
by the five-year
tuition enhance-
ment plan, the
tuition increase
that took effect
in 2003. .
Moving from California will be
a transition for his family but Gil-
lath said he is excited about the
change.
Lawrence seems to be a nice,
pleasant city, Gillath said. I have
a feeling it will be exciting and
fun.
Gillath will begin his teach-
ing and research in neuroscience
combined with social and person-
ality psychology at the University
this fall semester as one of about
30 new faculty members that the
University has recently hired. By
the end of 2007, approximately
100 new faculty members will
have been
hired with the
funds raised
by the tuition
plan.
E v e r y
school on
the Lawrence
campus and
the College of
Liberal Arts
and Scienc-
es received
funding to
hire new fac-
ulty.
In addition
to Gillath, the department of psy-
chology also hired Kris Preacher,
quantitative psychologist and for-
mer University of North Carolina
at Chapel Hill faculty member.
Preacher will conduct research
and teach graduate courses in psy-
chology at the University, starting
in August.
Preacher expressed his senti-
ments about the University and
why he decided to join the faculty,
in an e-mail. He said the Univer-
sity had one of the few, high-qual-
ity quantitative psychology pro-
grams in the country. He also said
the department has a world-wide
reputation for excellence and the
faculty was welcoming.
The School of Engineering was
allocated funds to hire three new
faculty members. One of those
individuals is Javier Guzman,
who will be an assistant profes-
sor in chemical and petroleum
engineering and researcher at the
Center for Environmentally Ben-
eficial Catalysis. Before Guzman
came to the University, he was in
Spain at the Valencia Polytechnic
University on a postdoctoral fel-
lowship.
Stuart Bell, dean of School of
Engineering, said the new hires
were a great investment for many
reasons.
We have more faculty to in-
teract with students, Bell said.
Thats the bottom line. If youre
investing with faculty, youre in-
vesting in the highest impact for
students.
Bell also said that hiring new
faculty brings attention to the
University from other schools
and brings a certain level of pres-
tige to the degrees students earn
at the University.

BRIDGEPORT, Conn. Mayor
John M. Fabrizi admitted Tuesday
he had abused cocaine while in ofce
and said he wanted to apologize to
all the people of the city but had no
plans to resign.
The admission followed the in-
advertent release of an FBI docu-
ment in which an alleged drug
dealer claimed an associate had a
videotape of the mayor using co-
caine.
In a tearful speech to about 200
city employees and residents in City
Council chambers Tuesday, Fabrizi
said he had not used drugs in 18
months and had sought help for a
drug addiction that he had hoped to
handle privately.
I thought that these were per-
sonal, private matters to me and
my family, that I could deal with
these issues with my family and
myself, Fabrizi said. I now rec-
ognize my actions affected many
others, and I want to apologize to
my family, my friends, and all of
the people of the city of Bridge-
port for my actions, my past ac-
tions.
Fabrizi, a Democrat who took of-
fce afer former Mayor Joseph Ganim
was convicted of corruption in 2003,
said he hopes to move forward and
continue running Connecticuts larg-
est city.
I will do everything, and I mean
everything I can, to redeem the re-
spect and the support that you the
employees of the city of Bridgeport,
and of you my friends, and of you
the great people of the city of Bridge-
port, Fabrizi said.
Many employees cheered
while Fabrizi spoke, though there
were some boos. He also said he
stopped drinking alcohol four
months ago.
I have put this personal strug-
gle behind me and it has never,
ever affected
my job perfor-
mance, Fabrizi
said. The tre-
mendous prog-
ress Bridgeport
has made over
the past three
years is a testa-
ment to that.
Folks, my re-
cord speaks for itself.
U.S. Attorney Kevin OConnor
said last week that Fabrizi was not
a target of the drug investigation,
which led to the FBI report being
filed in court. He said FBI reports,
which summarize statements made
by witnesses but are not always cor-
roborated, are typically filed under
seal and apologized to Fabrizi for
the release.
Fabrizi first admitted he had
used cocaine to the editorial board
of the Con-
necticut Post,
which reported
the admission
in Tuesdays
editions.
F a b r i z i
would not tell
the Post how
he obtained
cocaine, but
said he occasionally spent $20 or
$40 to purchase it. The mayor of-
fered to take periodic drug tests
if anyone doubts he has stopped
using cocaine.
Bridgeport, a city of about 140,000
residents on Long Island Sound, has
struggled with violent drug deal-
ers who gave the city a reputation
as the murder capital of the state in
the 1990s before the homicide rate
plummeted.
Cecil Young, a city sheriff who
listened to Fabrizis address Tues-
day, said the mayor had misled vot-
ers for nearly two years and should
resign.
He needs help, Young said, add-
ing that he wants proof that Fabrizi
sought treatment from a licensed
professional. If I was busted for
something like that, I would lose my
job.
Others were more forgiving.
I think he can continue on in his
job as mayor as long as hes sought
treatment, said Matthew Krol, a
Bridgeport resident who works in a
record store. I think he should be
given a second chance.

SEDONA, Ariz. A 1,500-acre
wildfire threatening northern Ar-
izonas scenic Oak Creek Canyon
was only 5 percent contained Tues-
day as crews tried to stop it from
reaching hundreds of homes clus-
tered among dry manzanita and
juniper trees.
At least 11 helicopters and air
tankers were available Tuesday to
help ground crews, said Joe Reinarz,
commander of the team fghting the
fre.
Te fre started Sunday and forced
the evacuation of about 400 homes
and businesses in narrow Oak Creek
Canyon and about 100 homes in the
smaller canyons on the rugged north
side of Sedona, a town about 90
miles north of Phoenix surrounded
by red-hued clifs that draw builders
of expensive homes and thousands of
tourists.
Crews also were battling wildfres
in Colorado, New Mexico and Cali-
fornia.
By Tuesday morning, ofcials
said the Sedona fre was only about a
half-mile from the edge of Slide Rock
State Park and fames had crested
Wilson Mountain, edging about 300
feet below the rim of Oak Creek Can-
yon in spots.
We want to hang it up there as
high as we can and let it grow low
and slow, Reinarz said Tuesday.
If the fre burns down to the two-
lane scenic highway along the canyon
bottom, crews hope to make a stand
there. Most homes are on the opposite
side of the highway, Reinarz said.
A high temperature of about 100
was forecast Tuesday for Sedona,
with very low humidity and wind of
10 to 20 mph.
Im a little apprehensive, said Se-
dona Mayor Pud Colquitt, one of the
evacuees from Oak Creek Canyon.
Its a wait-and-see now.
Authorities believe the blaze start-
ed in a camp used by transients.
In neighboring New Mexico, four
fres started by lightning had burned
more than 30,000 acres in the tinder-
dry Gila National Forest in the south-
western part of the state. Te biggest
had charred nearly 12,000 acres and
threatened 150 homes in the Lake
Roberts area. Residents were being
allowed to return Tuesday, said fre
information ofcer Brian Morris.
A 7,000-acre fre northeast of
Glenwood, N.M., in Catron County,
prompted evacuations of about 30
cabins and campgrounds, Morris
said.
In southern Colorado, crews
braced for more dry, windy weather
Tuesday as they confronted a wild-
fre that exploded across 4,500 acres
about 10 miles northeast of Fort
Garland, triggering the evacuation
of 270 homes in two counties. No
houses had been destroyed.
We cant get out in front of this
thing, its moving like a freight train,
fre information ofcer Steve Segin
said.
A California brush fre spread over
6,000 acres of hilly terrain in Los Pa-
dres National Forest. No houses were
threatened but two sheds and three
trailers were destroyed, U.S. For-
est Service spokesman Joe Pasinato
said.
Wildfres have charred more than
3.1 million acres nationwide so far
this year, well ahead of the average
of about 900,000 acres by this time,
the National Interagency Fire Center
reported. Huge grass fres that swept
Texas and Oklahoma this spring ac-
count for a large part of this years
acreage.

Lawrence is the Hollywood of the
Midwest. Te University of Kansas
is Hollywoods version of Universal
Studios. Dont believe it? From flms
starring zombies, to sof-core porn,
to nuclear attacks and the faux docu-
mentary that depicted what would
have beenhadthe Southwonthe Civ-
il War, Lawrence and the University
have been the sites of many projects
that have graced the silver screen.
A scene fromthe IMAXflmSea
Monsters 3D was shot at Dyche
Hall, located just south of the Kan-
sas Union, on campus last Tursday.
Te National Geographic flmis one
of a litany of feature flms shot on
campus or in Lawrence. Other fea-
ture flms have dealt directly with
the history of the city or University
or have tied KU elements to certain
parts of their plots.
Sea Monsters 3D examines ma-
rine reptile life in the ocean while
dinosaurs roamed the earth. Using
half animation, and half live action
reenactments, the flm depicts the
life of a dolichorhynchops, a short-
necked plesiosaur. Producer Lisa
Truitt explained exactly what the
flmis about.
Te underwater story follows one
marine reptile throughher life, Truitt
said. Whenever her life in animation
comes to a critical juncture, we cut to
a reenactment of a real paleontologi-
cal dig. What they fndonthe dig, you
learnsomething andit dictates the di-
rection that the story takes.
One of those paleontological
scenes was flmed on campus, but
nearly the entire flm was shot in
Western Kansas including Monu-
ment Rock and Castle Rock, with
the exception of one scene in Okla-
homa.
Te Dyche Hall scene contains
the lab work conducted afer ma-
rine reptiles with neonatal bones
were found without egg shells. Te
fnd suggested that those sea crea-
tures gave live birth in the ocean as
opposed to laying eggs.
Tat particular discovery actu-
ally took place in South Dakota,
but most of the fnds highlighted
throughout the movie took place in
Western Kansas, including fnds by
the Sternberg Family of Hays, who
were responsible for some signifcant
fossil discoveries during the 1920s.
Tis is where it happened, this is
where most of the fnds were made,
Truitt said. Kansas was an inland
sea during the Mesozoic period.
During the Mesozoic period,
the age of reptiles, 245 million to 65
million years ago, Kansas was under
water as part of an ocean and did not
rise above sea level until the late Cre-
taceous, the last stage of the Mesozoic
period.
Te 40 minute full -length IMAX
flm is expected to hit screens na-
tionwide in October 2007.
Teres tremendous interest in
this movie, Truitt said. I knowKan-
sas City is really excited about this.
Prior to Sea Monsters 3D,
Confederate States of America
was the last flm to have been shot
in Lawrence.
Written and directed by Universi-
ty of Kansas theatre professor Kevin
Willmott, CSA examined what life
would have been like had the South
won the Civil War. Te satiric flm,
flmed from a British documentary
point of view, was shot at the Uni-
versitys Oldfather Studios, 1621 W.
Ninth St., and in Kansas City. It de-
buted in 2004.
Willmott said Lawrence has a de-
veloping flmcommunity.
Lawrence has a growing flm
scene, Willmott said. Te flm de-
partment is growing and the students
coming out of the department are
staying in the area and making flms.
Willmott said the experience of
flming in Lawrence was great for his
cast and crew. Tey were able to uti-
lize many vol-
unteers in the
area. He said he
was amazed at
the types of pro-
fessionals who
lived in Law-
rence, saying it
was benefcial
to thembecause
theytookadvan-
tage of their talents.
Wilmott said there wasnt a bet-
ter place for him and his crew to
shoot CSA.
When youre making a low-bud-
get flm, or a no-budget flm in our
case, you have to look at your re-
sources, he said. Your resources de-
termine where to shoot your flm. For
us, Lawrence was the best place.
Judy Billings, vice president of
the Chamber of Commerce, has
been directly involved with flms in
Lawrence since the 1980s. She said
that movies flmed in Lawrence were
very benefcial to the city.
Its not about getting publicity
for the town, but the economic im-
pact it creates, Billings said. Movie
productions spend a huge amount
of money while theyre flming.
Tough many movies have been
flmed in Lawrence, Billings said that
not a whole lot of people knew that.
She mentioned Te Day Afer, a
flmshot in Lawrence in 1981. Had it
not been for a line in the movie, Tis
is Lawrence, Kan., is there anyone out
there, no one would have known the
movie was about Lawrence.
Billings also highlighted another
beneft to having movies flmed in
Lawrence. Television star Michael
Landon shot a flm in Lawrence in
the late 1980s. Billings believed,
had Landon not passed away shortly
afer his time in Lawrence, he would
have flmed another movie in town
or encouraged others to flmthere.
Its a very exciting thing when it
happens, Billings said.

State
ARMA Bicyclists on an annual
trek across Kansas ended their 500-
mile journey afer a week that took
bicyclists through nine host cities.
Biking Across Kansas ended Sat-
urday in Arma. Bicyclists had stopped
overnight in Girard, then took a 25 mile
round-trip to the state line and back.
I see a lot of exhausted faces,
Charlie Summers, Biking Across
Kansas executive director, said as he
looked out on Arma City Park, where
the riders had gathered.
Summers, who has ridden on the
tour every year since 1978, said it was
one of the hardest trips the group has
done. Tis years trip began June 9
and 10 with 800 bicyclists at Johnson
City, near the Colorado border.
Biking Across Kansas began in
1975, and the route, although it var-
ies, generally goes from west to east,
so riders have help from the wind.
But Summers said riders on this
years ride faced a strong east wind
on the second day and the ride from
Satanta to Ashland was 85 miles.
Still, he noted, others had recalled
harder trips. So its in the eye of the
beholder, Summers said.
From Ashland, bicyclists went to
Medicine Lodge, then Clearwater,

BAGHDAD, Iraq Te bodies of two U.S.
soldiers reported captured last week have been re-
covered, and an Iraqi defense ministry ofcial said
Tuesday the men were killed in a barbaric way.
Al-Qaida in Iraq claimed responsibility for
killing the soldiers, and said the successor to slain
terror leader Abu Musab al-Zarqawi had slaugh-
tered them, according to a Web statement that
could not be authenticated. Te language in the
statement suggested the men had been beheaded.
U.S. Maj. Gen. William Caldwell said the re-
mains, found late Monday by American troops,
were believed to be those of Pfc. Kristian
Menchaca, 23, of Houston, and Pfc. Tomas L.
Tucker, 25, of Madras, Ore.
He said U.S. forces part of a search involv-
ing some 8,000 American and Iraqi troops
found the bodies late Monday near Youssifyah,
where they disappeared Friday.
Troops did not recover the bodies until Tuesday,
however, because U.S. forces had to wait until day-
light to cordon of the area for an ordnance team
for fear it was booby-trapped, Caldwell said.
Te checkpoint attacked Friday was in the
Sunni Arab region known as the Triangle of
Death because of frequent ambushes there of U.S.
soldiers and Iraqi troops. Caldwell said troops en-
countered a lot of roadside bombs and other ex-
plosives during the three-day search, including in
the area where the bodies were found.
Te cause of death was undeterminable at
this point, and the two bodies will be taken
back to the United States for DNA tests to con-
frm the identities, Caldwell said.
Te two soldiers disappeared afer a deadly
insurgent attack Friday at a checkpoint by a Eu-
phrates River canal south of Baghdad. Spc. David
J. Babineau, 25, of Springfeld, Mass., was killed.
Te three men were assigned to the 1st Battalion,
502nd Infantry Regiment, 2nd Brigade, 101st
Airborne Division from Fort Campbell, Ky.
Te director of the Iraqi defense ministrys
operation room, Maj. Gen. Abdul-Aziz Mo-
hammed, said the bodies showed signs of hav-
ing been tortured. With great regret, they were
killed in a barbaric way, he said.
Te claim of responsibility was made in the
name of the Mujahedeen Shura Council, an
umbrella organization of fve insurgent groups
led by al-Qaida in Iraq. Te group had posted
an Internet statement Monday claiming it was
holding the two American soldiers captive.
We give the good news ... to the Islamic
nation that we have carried Gods verdict by
slaughtering the two captured crusaders, said
the claim, which appeared on an Islamic militant
Web site where insurgent groups regularly post
statements and videos.
With God Almightys blessing, Abu Hamza
al-Muhajer carried out the verdict of the Is-
lamic court calling for the soldiers slaying,
the statement said.
Te statement said the soldiers were slaugh-
tered, suggesting that al-Muhajer beheaded
them. Te Arabic word used in the statement,
nahr, is used for the slaughtering of sheep by
cutting the throat and has been used in past
statements to refer to beheadings.
Te U.S. military has identifed al-Muhajer
as an Egyptian associate of al-Zarqawi who is
also known as Abu Ayyub al-Masri.
Te killings would be the frst acts of violence
attributed to al-Muhajer since he was named
al-Qaida in Iraqs new leader in a June 12 Web
message by the group. He succeeded al-Zarqawi,
who was killed in a U.S. airstrike on June 7.
Al-Zarqawi made al-Qaida in Iraq notori-
ous for hostage beheadings and was believed
to have killed two American captives himself
Nicholas Berg in April 2004 and Eugene
Armstrong in September 2004.
Caldwell also said that Iraqi and American
troops involved in the search for the missing
soldiers killed three suspected insurgents and
detained 34 in fghting that also lef seven U.S.
servicemen wounded.
A farmer claiming to have witnessed the attack
told Te Associated Press on Sunday that insur-
gents swarmed the checkpoint, killing the driver of a
Humvee before taking two of his comrades captive.
Ahmed Khalaf Falah said three Humvees
were manning a checkpoint when they came
under fre from many directions. Two Hum-
vees went afer the assailants but the third was
ambushed before it could move.
He said seven masked gunmen, one carrying a
heavy machine gun, killed the driver of the third
vehicle and took the two other U.S. soldiers captive.
His account could not be verifed independently.
Kidnappings of U.S. service members have
been rare since the 2003 U.S.-led invasion of Iraq,
despite the presence of about 130,000 forces.

New faces to fll old places
New, old players must take on new roles to match last seasons success
support boosts team gpas

By Shawn Shroyer

kansan sportswriter
Te Kansas baseball team has
the opportunity to reach con-
secutive NCAA tournaments for
the frst time since 1993-1994.
However, next years team will be
without at least nine players from
the senior-laden 2006 team that
reached the Corvallis Regional.
To match last seasons success,
Kansas will depend on some new
faces at key positions and familiar
faces in new roles.
Batting Order:
Junior Brock Simpson has the
most experience as a leadof hit-
ter afer flling that role for 24
games last season. Simpson hit
.293 in 2006 with eight doubles,
six triples, fve home runs, 33
RBI, 38 runs and fve stolen bases.
With another year of experience
and consistent playing time next
season, Simpson should improve
all of those numbers. On defense,
Simpson will likely take Gus Mil-
ners spot in right feld.
Kansas baseball fans are used to
Ritchie Price batting second and
playing shortstop. Te third and
fnal Price brother, Robby, could
fnd himself replacing Ritchie at
both spots. Robby was a Louisville
Slugger Preseason First Team All-
American this spring and led Free
State High School to its frst state
championship. Even as a fresh-
man, Robby should be a regular
contributor for the Jayhawks.
Junior John Allman hit .333 in
2006 with six home runs, 16 dou-
bles, 48 runs, 52 RBI and seven sto-
len bases. Allman started in lef feld
all but six games last season and
should remain there next season.
Junior Erik Morrison also had
a solid 2006 campaign. He hit
.290 with a team-leading 14 hom-
ers, 15 doubles, 47 runs, 52 RBI
and seven stolen bases. He only
missed three games at third base
last season and will man the hot
corner again in 2007.
As far as home runs go, Pres-
ton Land had the best year ever
by a Kansas freshman with nine
round trippers in 2006. He also
hit .314 with 27 runs and 33 RBI.
Land started 40 games at frst base
last year and should surpass that

Te University of Kansas ath-
letics teams posted the second
highest GPA in school history last
semester. Te 14 teams posted a
combined 2.93 GPA. Te high-
est still stands at 2.98, which was
posted in Spring 2004.
Paul Buskirk, associate athlet-
ics director, student athlete sup-
port services, attributed the rise in
GPA to a number of things. With
the arrival of Lew Perkins, athlet-
ics director, in summer 2003, in-
creases within the academic side
of the Athletics Department in-
creased markedly, Buskirk said.
Jim Marchiony, associate ath-
letics director, said Perkins evalu-
ated the academic support within
the department.
When Lew came here, he
looked around everything, every
aspect of what we do here, Mar-
chiony said. He thought imme-
diately that we needed to increase
our support, improve our student
athlete support area. Weve in-
creased the staf and the tutoring
budget.
Buskirk also attributed the re-
cent academic success of the stu-
dent athletes at the University to
their recent athletic success. He
noted the football team specif-
cally. Te Jayhawks fnished 7-5,
3-5 Big 12, which included a vic-
tory in the Houston Bowl the
second bowl appearance for the
Hawks in the past
three years.
Te Kansas foot-
ball team posted its
highest GPA last
spring at a collective
2.67.
When student
athletes are per-
forming well ath-
letically, they carry
that over to other
aspects of their
lives, Buskirk said.
They carry it over
from the field to the class-
room.

pleased with the second highest
GPA in school history, Marchio-

Who can
stop Wade?
By fred a. davis iii
fdavis@kansan.com
Editors note: Game 6 of the NBA Finals
was still underway when the Kansan went to
press Tuesday night.
Dwyane Wade has been absolutely sick
throughout the 2006 NBA playoffs.
The fifth-overall pick in the 2003 draft,
a draft that will go down as one of the
greatest NBA drafts scratch that one
of the greatest drafts in professional sports
history. Wade is doing his best M.J. imper-
sonation this postseason and is trying to
become the first member of that heralded
group to lead his team to a ring.
Forgot who was in that draft?
LeBron James, Carmelo Anthony, Wade,
Chris Kaman, Chris Bosh, Kirk Hinrich,
Nick Collison, Kyle Korver, Josh Howard
and Luke Walton.
A few names left off were Darko Milicic,
Michael Sweetney, Jarvis Hayes, Marcus
Banks and Troy Bell... Troy Bell? The guy
hasnt logged real NBA minutes since his
rookie season and can be seen on the side
of a milk carton with the caption, last
spotted with the Oklahoma City Hornets in
preseason help with jump shot if found.
All right, the 2003 NBA draft may not
be one of the greatest drafts in sports his-
tory, but it is a pretty darn good one and
will have plenty of rings to boast when all
is said and done.
Back to Wade, who continues to punish
the Mavericks, and I dont know if punish
is a strong enough word; brutalize, destroy,
maim, kill, torture seem as though they fit
nicely, because thats exactly what Wade
has done to the Mavs and the rest of the
NBA during his third playoff run.
Through five games of the NBA finals,
Wade averaged a smidge under 35 points
per game and shot 45 percent from the
field. Not bad considering he put up 121
shots in those five games.
Now the Mavs, who have their own gem
from that 2003 draft class, Josh Howard,
taken with the last pick of the first round,
have tried just about everything to slow
Wade down.
Zone defenses have failed, second-year
man Devin Harris, while quick enough, is
just not strong enough. Adrian Griffin, a
Wichita native, is big enough physically at

Kansas basketball has added
three more games to its home
schedule for the upcoming season.
Dartmouth College will travel
to Allen Fieldhouse for a game on
Nov. 28 for the frst ever meeting
between the two schools, The Uni-
versity of Detroit Mercy will oppose
the Jayhawks on Dec. 28 for the third
meeting in the series, the frst since

ed Kansas in the second round of the
1998 NCAA tournament.
Jim Marchiony, Kansas associ-
ate athletics director, said that the
schedule is still subject to change.
Theres still more games to

one game, maybe two. It changes
so much that a game that we had
a month ago may not exist now,
Thats why we dont put anything

KU/ MU football game
to be televised on ABC

The Kansas vs. Missouri football
game this season will be televised
nationally on ABC. The season f-
nale for both schools will be held at
11 a.m. Saturday Nov. 25 at Farout
Field in Columbia, Mo.
Jim Marchiony, Kansas asso-
ciate athletics director, said that
a nationally televised game was
great exposure for the University
of Kansas.
Its good for our fans, Marchio-
ny said. Its good for our program.
It highlights one of the great rival-
ries in the country. KU/MU is one
of the most intense rivalries in all
of college sports. Its good, itll be
on full display this year.
Marchiony also said the game,
televised on network television,
says a lot about the progress the
program was making. People at
the networks and people in general
were taking notice of what was go-
ing on at Kansas.
The game will mark the 115th
meeting between the two schools
and is the oldest rivalry in college
football west of the Mississippi River.

65, 230 lbs. to match up with the 64,
212 lbs. Wade, but just doesnt have the
quicks to keep up. The aforementioned
Howard has taken his turn, but came away
with only hurt feelings.
So who can stop Dwyane Wade? Or at
least slow him down?
Youll have to leave the Mavericks roster,
skip the Pistons, bypass the Nets and find
another member of that 2003 draft class,
#12 on the Chicago Bulls.
Thats right, KUs very own, the floppy-
haired one, Kirk Hinrich.
Perhaps a steady paycheck has allowed
Hinrich to ditch the lazy locks, but the
63, 190 lbs. former third-team All-Ameri-
can from Iowa is as good as it gets when it
comes to defending Wade.
During the regular season, Wade aver-
aged 27.2 points per game. In three con-
tests against the Bulls, he averaged just
more than 12.
Through 22 playoff games, (last nights
game not included), Wade averaged 28
points per contest. Hinrich and the Bulls
limited him to 24.6 a game, his lowest of
the four series he has played in. The Bulls
also held Wade to his lowest field goal per-
centage of the playoffs, holding the former
Marquette star to 42 percent shooting.
That number looks even better when
compared to the could-somebody-please-
put-a-hand-in-his-face-defense employed
by the allegedly defense-minded Pistons;
Wade shot 64 percent against Mo Town.
Defensively, Hinrich is one of the best in
the NBA. Not surprising, really when you
consider he was a defensive stud while at
KU. Just ask Kareem Rush.
While Hinrichs profile in the league was
already on the rise, his defensive efforts on
Wade should boost his stature even more.
And the timing couldnt be any better. Hin-
rich is heading into a contract year as he
enters his fourth professional season in
2006-2007.
The Bulls have boatloads of cash under
the salary cap and would be wise to invest in
one of the better all-around NBA players in
Hinrich. If not, well, theres always Dallas.

RALEIGH, N.C. Tanks to the kid, all
those Carolina old-timers fnally got to hoist
the Stanley Cup.
Rod BrindAmour cried. Bret Hedican
jumped for joy. Even Doug Weight bad
shoulder and all lifed hockeys most re-
vered trophy above his head. It tilted slightly
to his right, but he held on.
No way the Hurricanes were going to let
this one slip away.
Cam Ward made sure of that.
Te rookie goalie stopped nearly everything
that came his way, fnishing of a brilliant play-
ofs with a rock-solid performance in Game
7. Te Hurricanes skated away with their frst
Stanley Cup title, beating Edmonton 3-1 in the
winner-take-all fnale Monday night.
Ward, only 22, won the Conn Smythe Tro-
phy as most valuable player of the postseason.
Goaltending wins you championships, make
no mistake about it, said BrindAmour, the 35-
year-old captain, his eyes still red afer he lef the
ice. I got to raise the cup because of that kid.
BrindAmour wasnt the only member of the
30-something club who fnally broke through.
Tere was Hedican, 35, who lost in his frst
two trips to the fnals. And Weight, 35, who f-
nally made it for the frst time in his 15th sea-
son. And Whitney, 34, who didnt reach the f-
nals until Year 14. And the most patient one of
all, 37-year-old Glen Wesley, who had played in
the eighth-most regular-season games (1,311) in
NHL history without winning a championship.
All of them will be getting their names on
the cup.
Finally.
Tat was probably the greatest feeling of
my life, coach Peter Laviolette said. To watch
those guys hold the cup over their head that
is what I will remember.
A couple of defensemen, Aaron Ward and
Frantisek Kaberle, staked Carolina to a 2-0
lead through two periods. Justin Williams fn-
ished of the Oilers, scoring an empty-net goal
with 1:01 remaining afer Edmonton playof
star Fernando Pisani broke up Cam Wards
shutout early in the third.
Oilers defenseman Chris Pronger, a stal-
wart throughout the postseason, gave up the
puck in the Carolina zone and wound up mak-
ing a helpless dive to block Williams gimme
into the goal that had been vacated by Jussi
Markkanen in favor of an extra skater.

SAN FRANCISCO Members of the San
Francisco Giants coaching staf have been
contacted by former Sen. George Mitchell in
his independent investigation of steroids in
baseball.
I understand some guys were supposed to
(talk to him), Giants manager Felipe Alou told
Te Associated Press on Monday. Tats all I
know. Tat is very personal. I dont ask these
guys.
Several people within Major League Base-
ball confrmed that coaches on Alous staf had
heard from Mitchell. Tey spoke on condition
of anonymity afer being asked not to discuss
the investigation publicly. Harvey Shields, one
of Giants slugger Barry Bonds personal train-
ers, who works for the team, also was being
sought by Mitchell.
Te former Senate majority leader was ap-
pointed in March by commissioner Bud Selig
to head the leagues investigation into steroids
in the sport.
Bonds, second on the career home run list
behind Hank Aaron, is among the players be-
ing investigated.
Alou said he had not yet been contacted by
Mitchell, but I probably will.
A Giants spokesman said the entire coach-
ing staf declined to comment about Mitchells
investigation because Major League Baseball
asked teams not to discuss the subject publicly
to protect the integrity of the probe.
Selig has said he was prompted to launch
an investigation in part by the spring release
of the book Game of Shadows, by two San
Francisco Chronicle reporters who detailed
Bonds alleged use of steroids, insulin and hu-
man growth hormone.
Tere is no timetable for completing the in-
vestigation.
Authors Lance Williams and Mark Fainaru-
Wada wrote that Bonds started using steroids
because he was jealous of the attention paid to
Mark McGwires home run race with Sammy
Sosa in 1998.
Te 41-year-old Bonds, who passed Babe
Ruth with his 715th career home run last
month, has always denied using steroids of any
other performance-enhancing drugs _ insist-
ing everything he has accomplished is a prod-
uct of natural talent and hard work.

number in 2007.
Despite an injury-plagued 2006 season,
Ryne Price hit nine home runs in 86 at-bats.
If his injury problems are behind him, Ryne
should be a regular at second base in 2007.
Sophomore Justin Ellrich saw limited ac-
tion last season, but showed some potential
to be Kansas designated hitter. In 48 at-bats,
Ellrich had one home run, three doubles, four
RBI and seven runs.
Te catcher position appears to be up for
grabs for 2007. Sophomore Buck Afenir and
senior Dylan Parzyk combined to hit .228 last
season, but Afenir did hit .375 with a home
run and six RBI during the Big 12 tournament.
Afenir and Parzyks competition in 2007 will
be incoming transfers Joe Servais from Garden
City CC and Joe Southers from Phoenix Col-
lege . Servais hit .356 as a sophomore for the
Broncbusters with 14 extra base hits, 36 RBI, 54
runs and 13 stolen bases. Southers hit .393 as a
sophomore for the Bears with 11 extra base hits,
24 RBI and 16 runs.
Center feld will be one of the biggest holes
to fll in 2007. Matt Baty played solid defense
there, was always a base-stealing threat and
was a career .320 hitter. Senior Kyle Murphy
has the most potential to do the same next
season. Murphy displayed a stellar glove last
season and might have even more speed than
Baty, but his hitting a .153 average was a
weakness in 2006.
PITCHING STAFF:
Kansas will have a plethora of young pitch-
ers to choose from to replace Land, Fairchild
and Quick in its weekend rotation. However,
sophomore Nick Czyz appears to be the only
clear-cut favorite to fll a weekend spot. Czyzs
early season struggles in 2006 hurt his overall
numbers (4-3 record, 5.11 ERA and 30 walks
in 49.1 innings), but the lefy made hitters look
silly at times with 45 strikeouts and grew up in
a hurry, earning the win in the Big 12 Champi-
onship game against Nebraska.
Senior Brendan McNamara is another can-
didate to start on weekends. As a middle re-
liever and midweek starter in 2006, he went
3-3 with a 3.86 ERA and 40 strikeouts in 51.1
innings.
To fll the third weekend spot, coach Ritch
Price may look to land a transfer from a Divi-
sion I school, as he did last season with Fairch-
ild. Garden City CC transfer Aaron Breit
looked like the most likely candidate for the
spot, but afer being drafed in the 2005 MLB
Amateur Draf by San Diego, Breit signed with
the Padres the day before this years draf.
Sophomore Andy Marks has a good chance
at being a long reliever on weekends and a
midweek starter for the Jayhawks. Te lef-
handed Marks had a 2-1 record in 2006 with a
5.35 ERA and 31 strikeouts in 33.2 innings.
Afer Marks, Kansas could fnd regular set-
up men in transfers Andres Esquibel and Hiara-
li Garcia. Esquibel went 8-4 as a sophomore
for Palomar College with a 2.63 ERA and 65
strikeouts in 92.1 innings. Garcia went 6-3 as a
sophomore for Eastern Oklahoma State College
with a 2.58 ERA and 89 strikeouts in 83.7 in-
nings. If Kansas doesnt add to its roster before
next season, Esquibel and Garcia may battle for
spots in the weekend rotation.
Filling in for Kansas legend Don Czyz to
close games will be sophomore Paul Smyth. De-
spite a 6.13 ERA last season, he compiled a 5-1
record and one save. Smyth also had 37 strike-
outs to 15 walks in 54.1 innings.
Any time you win the Big 12 conference,
youre on the map, Baty said. It was hard to get
there, but the hardest part is going to be for the
younger guys to sustain that. It can be easy just
to fall right back of that map.
ny said the goal was still a 4.0 GPA. While
he said that feat may be dif cult to attain with
more than 500 student athletes at the Univer-
sity, he said that they wouldnt come close if
they didnt shoot for it.
Marchiony added that one of the main goals
of the department was to put every student
athlete on track to graduate in a four to fve-
year period.
With the time they put into their sports,
it requires dedication on the student athletes
part, Marchiony said. It requires a dedicated
faculty, which we have. It requires help from
the student support area, which we have. With
those things in place, I think were going to
continue to see positive results.
Were not satisfed with a 2.93. Were
pleased that we have 40 athletes with 4.0s, but
we want more than that.

The Stars Show the Kind of Day Youll Have:
sudoku
see page 23 for answers
ARIES
(March 21-April 19)
HHH Understand what is
happening within a fnancial
partnership or arrangement.
You simply might not see eye
to eye with someone else. On
some level, you could be head-
ing down the warpath. What
happens hits you in a vital spot.
Tonight: Take some thinking
time.
TAURUS
(April 20-May 20)
HHHH You distinctly have the
edge. You make the difference. It
might not be important to decide
if someone is contrary. Commu-
nicate past others barriers.
Tonight: Accept an unexpected
invitation.
GEMINI
(May 21-June 20)
HHH Assume a low profle,
and you will be much happier.
Understand that you dont
always have to have the
answers. Sometimes you need
to simply rethink what you hear
and think is going on.
Tonight: Get some extra R and
R while you still can.
CANCER
(June 21-July 22)
HHHH You might have to hop
over a couple of obstacles to
get to the bottom of a problem.
You might want to say your
piece. Someone is ready to hear
it loud and clear. You could be
angry with a friend.
Tonight: Where your friends are.
LEO
(July 23-Aug. 22)
HHHH Many look to you for
answers. On some level, you
might be worn out and tired
from everyone acting up or
demanding this or that. It is
important to sort through what
you must do. Think positively.
Tonight: In the limelight.
VIRGO
(Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
HHHHH Your ability to be
thoughtful and intellectual
merge. Where others become
wild and out of control, you
stay solid and thoughtful. A
friend wants what he wants
and could do whatever he
needs to do to achieve the
results.
Tonight: Put on some happy
music.
LIBRA
(Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
HHHH Work with one person
at a time. Your focus and atten-
tion mean a lot to each person.
Know when to cut back and
when to take action. You might
want and need to step back.
Take a stand if need be.
Tonight: Be with a favorite
person.
SCORPIO
(Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
HHHHH Observe what oc-
curs, and listen to what others
say. You know what works with
them. Take an overview. Think
carefully and understand how
unpredictable or volatile a situ-
ation might be. Move only after
you feel you have grasped the
situation.
Tonight: Say yes.
SAGITTARIUS
(Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
HHHH You want to defer to
others very quickly. You dont
need to carry the weight of a
problem. You need to discover
what makes you tick, as a
partner could challenge your
very essence.
Tonight: Easy does it.
CAPRICORN
(Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
HHHHH Your imagination
takes you in a new direction.
Test your limits when dealing
with someone who can be
a hothead, especially with
money. Think positively about a
difference of opinion, and work
with each individual.
Tonight: Use your imagination.
AQUARIUS
(Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
HHH You could get into it with
a fellow associate, loved one or
friend. Be smart; dont take the
bait. You might be unpredictable
fnancially. Your checkbook could
hurt you before you know it.
Tonight: Happy at home.
PISCES
(Feb. 19-March 20)
HHHH Your fery energy
could put others off. You have
little tolerance for sticks-in-
the-mud right now. Realize that
you could be overly critical.
You could switch gears quite
suddenly, out of the blue.
Tonight: Out with friends.
