Lawrence may be known as a
college town, but Anthony Santau-
laria doesnt expect any students
to be living in his new condos.
Santaularias company, Diversi-
fed Concepts, is breaking ground
on a new luxury condo building
in Lawrence at the intersection
of Bob Billings Parkway and In-
verness Drive, called Bella Sera.
The condos will aim to attract
a high-end clientele, with units
ranging from $300,000 to more
than $1 million.
Along with the new Hobbs
Taylor Lofts at Eighth and New
Hampshire streets, Bella Sera
contributes to a new trend of
high-end living in Lawrence, but
Santaularia emphasizes there are
differences between the two.
Their main amenity is being
close to downtown, which at-
tracts young, urban buyers, he
said. Ours attracts people that
want to live out in a suburban
environment with landscaping,
a ftness center and other perks,
so its not a direct competition.
The two projects represent
the two directions Lawrence
is heading in. While some de-
velopers are trying to revitalize
downtown, others are develop-
ing suburban areas farther west.
For students the choice can
be one of convenience versus
price. Owen Carnes, Manhattan
sophomore, lives at Leanna Mar
Townhomes, at Clinton Park-
way and Inverness Street.
Id rather be closer so I dont
have to drive as far, Carnes
said. But as you go out west,
its cheaper and you can get a
better deal.
Downtown merchants are trying
to fnd new ways to keep people
downtown. Bob Oderkirk, presi-
dent of the board of directors of
Downtown Lawrence, said in the
coming months his group would
be sponsoring several projects de-
signed to show off the exciting
and unique nature of downtown.
For Ryan White, Louisburg
sophomore, the biggest factor
was being close to campus.
He lives at 24th Street and Na-
ismith Drive, and says he rarely
ventures farther west than Iowa
Street. Still, Santaularia is con-
fdent that when residents move
out west, businesses will follow.
Over the past fve to 10
years, Lawrence has been grow-
ing quite a bit, and Wakarusa is
becoming a new fnancial cen-
ter, he said. There are lots of
new homes out that way, and
people want to avoid having to
drive downtown.

Michael Hendrickson, vo-
calist for the band Sexy If
Youre Maladjusted, is not sure
how audiences will respond
to his bands self-described
different sound. Still, he is
excited to be preforming this
weekend.
We want to show Lawrence
some good music because we
are not a refection of the pop
culture music that is currently
out there, he said. A lot of in-
die bands sound just like main-
stream music and it can be very
blas.
The band, which formed last
year, will compete in KJHKs an-
nual Farmers Ball. The battle of
the bands competition, which
started Thursday night, and will
continue until April 22.
The Farmers Ball will feature
seven other local bands includ-
ing Boo & Boo Too, Vibralux,
Death and Flowers, Paul Proto-
col, Marry Me Moses, Michael
Garfeld, and The Mountain
Tops.
The bands were chosen by
KJHK employees at a blind lis-
tening party. The employees
listened to roughly 55 bands
without knowing the identity of
the bands and narrowed the list
down to eight.
The frst semifnals took place
Thursday night and the second
will take place at 10 tonight at
The Jackpot Saloon, 943 Mas-
sachusetts St. Four bands will
perform each night. The four
bands that survive will advance
to the fnals which will be held
April 22 at The Granada, 1020
Massachusetts St.
The bands will be judged by
fve judges including the audi-
ence, which will cast ballots for
the favorite band. The winners
of the Farmers Ball will win
studio recording time worth an
estimated $1,000.
Jaimie Oborny, Wakeeney se-
nior and KJHK live events coor-
dinator, said the Farmers Ball is
a way for KJHK to promote lo-
cal music and continue a spring
semester tradition.
The local acts we have this
year are killer and its a great
chance to hear some exciting
local music, she said. We are
always trying to promote music
that does not get as much play
as other types of music.

Kristin Wilson remembers at-
tending the Sleepout for Home-
lessness two years ago and lis-
tening to a man talk about the
diffculty of getting back on his
feet after being homeless.
He spoke about the lack of
an effective safety net for people
who are homeless and the vi-
cious cycle of not being able to
get a job without a place to live
and not being able to get a place
to live without a job.
Its just a regular person
whos been through hard times,
Wilson said. Its kind of eye-
opening.
Sleepout for Homelessness is
part of Into the Streets Week an
annual community service event
coordinated by the Center for
Community Outreach, which
starts on Saturday. There will be
homeless speakers at the event
again this year, and, later in the
week, a forum on the homeless
in Lawrence. At the forum, com-
munity offcials will respond to
Lawrences ranking by the Na-
tional Homeless Coalition as
the second-meanest city to the
homeless.
Wilson, Pittsburgh senior,
is the co-coordinator for Into
the Streets Week, which runs
through Sat., April 29.

Run for the Gold Zone
t Kansas ReLays
Jayhawks take
second and
third in 1500m
By case keefeR

Kansan sportswriter
Feelings of excitement and
anticipation flled Memorial
Stadium Thursday evening for
the frst races of the 2006 Kan-
sas Relays. At 6:15 p.m., fans
had their frst
o p p o r t u ni t y
to catch some
of the fnest
University of
Kansas athletes
perform in the
mens 1500-me-
ter run.
Adrian Lud-
wig, Lawrence
junior and Matt
French, Howell,
Mich., junior,
were the two Jayhawks compet-
ing in the feld of 14. Their race
was the fnal of the three 1500-
meter events and the race that
contained the most talent.
Both Ludwig and French got
off to slow starts at the sound of
the gun. According to Ludwig,
this fault was attributed to the
relays running behind schedule,
which changed warm-up sched-
ules.
I felt a little sluggish. Matt
and I warmed up way too early.
It was hard to get started and I
didnt feel like I had my speed,
Ludwig said. Despite this, Lud-
wig fnished with a solid 4:03.58
fnishing time that put him in
second place.
Near the fnal turn of the frst
lap, Ludwig and French seemed
to feed off of each others energy
as both surged ahead of the pack
to fourth and ffth place, respec-
tively, at the 44 second mark.
On his second lap when Lud-
wig reached the same point on
the track, he seemed to be taking
much more confdent strides. A
minute and 51 seconds into the
race, he distanced himself from
other runners by taking com-
mand of the second place posi-
tion.
Matt French ran at a steady
pace throughout all four laps
and fnished in sixth place. He
never seemed to fade or slow
down even when some of the
other runners mustered up all
their energy to pass him in the
fnal stretch.
The race was all right, it was
kind of what I expected. My real
focus this year is on the 10K,
French said. Following his race,
Matt spoke excitedly about hav-
ing the opportunity to be to a
competitor and a spectator in
the annual event.
Its fun. I like being able to
compete at home and having my
friends come watch me. French
said.
When the race entered the f-
nal turn, Adrian Ludwig had a
calm expression on his face as
he put up a fght to gain ground
on the leader, Titus Tirop of Mis-
souri Baptist University. Finish-
ing on a strong note made Lud-
wigs second place performance
stand out more.
It wasnt too bad, I should
have kicked a little harder to
catch the guy in front of me
said Ludwig. Titus Tirop fn-
ished the race with a winning
time of 3:59.95.
I ran here all through high
school and now college. Its
great to be in with all the great
athletes here. Im proud to be a
part of it. Ludwig said.

Confetti cannon shuts

SHANGHAI, China Maybe
they should have stuck to
frecrackers.
A cannon that fred confetti
at a grand opening celebration
in Shanghai damaged power
lines and cut electricity to
scores of factories, offces and
homes, a newspaper reported.
Chinese often set off strings
of frecrackers on auspicious
occasions, but Shanghai Dan-
one Biscuit Foodstuff Co. ap-
parently sought an alternative
to celebrate the opening of a
new operation in an industrial
park west of the city.
A 6-foot plastic strap that
was accidentally ejected with
the shredded paper wrapped
around high voltage electri-

a short circuit, the Shanghai
Daily reported Wednesday.
We heard a big bang and
then the electricity was gone,
the newspaper quoted Wang
Xiaohua, an employee at a
post offce located opposite
the new outlet, as saying.
At least two people were
trapped in stalled elevators,
and neighboring factories
demanded compensation for
damaged equipment and lost
production, the newspaper
said. A 50-member repair team
needed fve hours on Tuesday
to get power running again, it

For the frst time in their stu-
dent careers at The University
of Kansas, Patrick Maguire and
Brett Marsteller, both Lenexa
juniors, walked through the slid-
ing glass doors of the Lawrence
Public Library at 707 Vermont
St. on Monday night.
The two strolled over to
the DVD collection in search
of some free entertainment.
After going through multiple
genres, from drama to for-
eign films, they headed to the
checkout with nine DVDs.
Maguire filled out a form for
his first ever Lawrence Public
Library card, free of charge,
while The Sixth Sense
rested on top of his stack of
DVDs.
I heard [the public library]
had a good selection and
thought I would check it out,
Maguire said.
Recently the library and two
architecture frms Gould
Evans and Associates, and
Meyers, Scherer & Rockcastle
produced and released a re-
port summary for the Lawrence
Public Librarys expansion plan.
The librarys fnished expansion
date, if passed by the city, will be
in 2025.
Bruce Flanders, library di-
rector, estimated about 60,000
people have library cards and
about one-fourth of the local
college students, including stu-
dents from Haskell Indian Na-
tions University, use the librarys
services.
According to the library
task force, the building cur-
rently needs several facil-
ity enhancements that would
make more information and
other benefits, such as DVDs,
available to the community
and University students. The
librarys collection, which in-
cludes fiction, nonfiction, pe-
riodicals, language learning
CDs and DVDs, totals about
25,000 items. The expansion
plan would nearly double the
collection to about 40,000
items.
On-campus libraries have en-
tertainment DVDs like the ones
Maguire and Marsteller checked
out, but are limited in their se-
lection. Had the two Lenexa ju-
niors stopped by Watson Library
to pick up The Sixth Sense,
they would have left empty-
handed.
Students can get more than
just entertainment from the
public library though. Several
University students also use the
reference section of the library,
said Jeff Weinberg, assistant to
Chancellor Robert Hemenway
and library task force member.
Another plan for expansion
that University students could
beneft from includes an exten-
sion to the number of meeting
rooms in the library. More than
450 student groups are listed
under student organizations on
the University Web site. These
groups would all be able to use
the meeting rooms and other
library services of the expan-
sion.
Maggie Bixler, Topeka senior,
visits the public library at least
once a month and often fnds it
diffcult to get on a computer. It
is not unusual to have to wait up
to 30 minutes for an available
computer, she said.
By the time the expansion is
completed in 2025, the number
of computer workstations will
increase from 24 to about 150,
providing students with a better
opportunity to use the librarys
now crowded computer termi-
nals.
The crowded computers
arent the only part of the li-
brary needing space, though.
Right now, the Lawrence Pub-
lic Library has the seventh
lowest square feet per capita
of the Big 12 cities librar-
ies, according to the librarys
report summary. Manhattan
ranks at the top, having 1.46
square feet per capita, while
Lawrence has .65 square feet
per capita.
The limited space at the li-
brary stems from the fact that
the building is the same struc-
ture that was built more than 30
years ago. Currently the library
covers about 52,000 square feet,
but the expansion calls for a
127,000 square foot structure.
Additional parking for 240 to
440 cars was also proposed.
This estimated cost for the
new library structure and
parking garage totals about
$53 million. The construction
of the library, not including
the parking garage, additional
parking or library furnishings,
is an estimated $35 million of
the total. But no set costs have
been made, and Flanders said
he thought the library could be
built using less than $30 mil-
lion if necessary.
To pay for the project a bond
and private investors are being
looked into. The private inves-
tors include people who either
own the property options for
the new location or can easily
acquire it, Flanders said. Dis-
cussions of exactly where the
funds will come from are still
under way.
Four different locations for
the library are currently be-
ing considered. All centered
around downtown Lawrence.
The four locations include: the
600 block of Vermont street,
the 800 block of New Hamp-
shire street, the 900 block of
New Hampshire street, and
the Riverfront Mall at Sixth
and New Hampshire streets.
The ultimate decision on the
location will not be up to the
library though.
We feel its best for the city to
decide where the library will be
and what developer to go with,
Flanders said.
The new library will span
two to three-and-a-half stories
and will depend on the de-
cided location. The size of the
parking garage depends on the
property used for construction
as well.

Events throughout the week highlight social is-
sues like homelessness, hunger, literacy, cultural
diversity and environmentalism.
Volunteering for any of this sort of stuff is kind
of a way to get a sense of how you can make a dif-
ference, Wilson said.
Into the Streets Week coincides with National
Volunteer Week this year. For the fnal event of
the week, Day of Caring, the Center for Com-
munity Outreach is working with the Roger Hill
Volunteer Center to organize service projects
throughout Lawrence. Participants will meet and
take buses to different locations.
Its just one day to get a lot of stuff done in
Lawrence, basically, Wilson said.
Anton Bengston, Salina junior and co-director
of the Center for Community Outreach, said the
center was careful to keep in mind that people
have busy schedules, and made the events at dif-
ferent times every day.
If people could come out to at least one event
that would be a big help, he said.

The promotion of local music
also attracts many quality local
bands, including Paul Protocol.
Paul Eaton, Leawood junior
and member of the band, said,
I was in the Farmers Ball last
year and I am really excited
about this year. The prizes are
cool but I like the exposure that
the local bands get from Farm-
ers Ball.
Hendrickson said he was
not sure how his band, Sexy If
Youre Maladjusted, would fn-
ish in the competition but the
band will leave a lasting impres-
sion.
Our performance will either
be really heavenly or it will be
like a bad off-Broadway musi-
cal, he said. People are either
going to love it or absolutely
hate it.

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. A
sit-in at Gov. Jeb Bushs offce
stretched into a second day
Thursday, as about 30 college
students protested the states re-
sponse to the boot camp beating
of a teenager who later died.
The students, who met with
Bush on Wednesday, are de-
manding the arrest of guards
who were videotaped beating
and kicking 14-year-old Martin
Lee Anderson.
Im pretty tired, but I know
we got a long day ahead of us,
and when youre working on is-
sues like this ... physically the
things that are going on almost
stop mattering, said Gabriel
Pedras, a Florida State Universi-
ty student who helped organize
the protest.
Bushs offce said that the
governor planned to meet with
Andersons parents Thursday,
and that the student protests
wont change the way the case is
being investigated.
They certainly have every
right to do it. I appreciate their
interest in the process. I think
its very healthy, Bush said
Thursday. Ill continue to do
what I think is right.
The students, from Florida
State University, Florida A&M
University and Tallahassee Com-
munity College, said they were
planning a protest Friday at the
three schools and the Capitol.
The Rev. Al Sharpton and the
Rev. Jesse Jackson will partici-
pate, Sharptons offce said.
Hillsborough County State
Attorney Mark Ober, appointed
by Bush as special prosecutor
to investigate the case, said he
respected the students right to
protest, but urged people to re-
main patient.
As I told the (Anderson)
family, when its all said and
done, I will look them in the
eye and tell them I ethically and
honestly did the very best job,
Ober said. I intend to get to the
bottom of this its going to
take a while.
Bush sent a letter Thursday
asking Ober to investigate de-
leted e-mails belonging to the
initial state investigator, who
recused himself from the case
because of personal ties. State
Attorney Steve Meadows has
said the e-mails were deleted
unintentionally.
The students called on Bush
to publicly apologize to the boys
parents and want the governor
to release the fndings of a sec-
ond autopsy performed on An-
derson and to revoke the license
of a medical examiner who per-
formed the frst autopsy.
In the frst autopsy, Dr.
Charles Siebert ruled the boy
died of complications from
sickle cell trait, a usually benign
blood disorder. Ober witnessed
a second autopsy, and his offce
said Anderson didnt die of sick-
le cell, but details havent been
released. Bush has said it would
be premature to release the fnd-
ings before the entire investiga-
tion is complete.
The governor said Thursday
that he told the students he does
not have the constitutional pow-
er to carry out their demands.
I appreciate their frustration
because Im frustrated as well,
Bush said. I told them the facts,
told them the truth.
Bay County has closed its
boot camp, and the House Jus-
tice Appropriations committee
wants to replace camps state-
wide with residential programs.
The U.S. Justice Department is
also investigating possible civil
rights violations in the case. A
lawyer for the Anderson family
has said that he did not help or-
ganize the protest, but that the
family is appreciative.

KATMANDU, Nepal Tens
of thousands of Nepalis defed
a curfew to protest Thursday
in the largest show of discon-
tent with King Gyanendra since
demonstrations against his royal
dictatorship began more than
two weeks ago. Security forces
responded by fatally shooting
three protesters.
The nearly two dozen dem-
onstrations, which brought as
many as 100,000 people into
the streets around the capital
Katmandu, ranged from festive
pro-democracy rallies to angry
riots of young men who lit bon-
fres and hurled bricks at police.
Some demanded the death of
the king, whose government
appears increasingly unable to
control the country.
By midday, soldiers were pa-
trolling in armored vehicles, and
at least one police post had been
attacked, its windows smashed
by bricks.
Gyanendra came under more
diplomatic pressure on Thurs-
day to cede the power he seized
14 months ago from an interim
government.
Despite a curfew imposed to
head off protests, an alliance of
seven opposition parties that has
organized 15 days of protests
and a general strike managed to
draw as many as 100,000 people
into the streets, according to
estimates by police, organizers
and witnesses.
While there have been blood-
ier days since the protests began,
much of Nepals life political
and economic is centered
in Katmandu, and Thursdays
demonstrations dwarfed all ear-
lier ones in the capital.
Early in the day, residents in
the city center where a heavy
police presence kept most pro-
testers at bay whistled and
banged plates on their roof-
tops. Cell phone text messages
encouraged Katmandus 1.5
million residents to rally at the
citys edge.
Many of those protests turned
violent as demonstrators parried
with offcers throughout the day,
often tossing back tear gas can-
isters to cheers from supporters
watching from rooftops.
The worst violence came on
the citys western edge, where
police trying to keep more than
10,000 protesters from reaching
the ring road opened fre with
tear gas, rubber bullets and f-
nally live ammunition.
Witnesses said the shooting
in Kalanki began when a senior
police offcer drew his pistol
and shot a protester in the head,
an act followed by gunfre from
police and soldiers.
The senior offces aimed
straight for the (protesters),
said Ankul Shresthra, a 28-year-
old throwing bottles at police in
Kalanki. Other witnesses con-
frmed his account and protest-
ers showed reporters fresh bul-
let casings.
Doctors at Katmandus Model
hospital said three people were
killed in Kalanki and that police
took the bodies away. More than
40 people were in critical condi-
tion, most with head injuries.
Thursdays shootings brought
the death toll to 13 since the
demonstrations began.
Hundreds more were report-
edly injured around the city, in-
cluding 13 police offcers whose
clearly exhausted colleagues
were, by the end of the day, be-
ing forced against demonstra-
tors by senior offcers swatting
them with rattan poles.

about 30 college students protested the states response to the incident. The students, who met with Bush on Wednesday, are demanding the arrest of guards
who were videotaped beating and kicking the boy.

Residents of McCollum
Hall, rejoice. Your relentless
efforts to make the University
safer have paid off. All those
fre alarms have fnally been
heard by city hall.
The city of Lawrence is
opening a new fre station
at 19th Street and Stewart
Avenue, across the street from
your residence hall. Think of
the benefts.
Now, when one of you de-
cides to pull the fre alarm, the
beleaguered frefghters will
only be a stones throw away.
No more waiting in the cold
for frefghters to make the 1.7
mile trek. Your friends will be
right across the street.
All those students standing
in their sweatpants at 2:17
a.m. on a Thursday should get
some relief from the antics of
some freshman coming home
from the bars for the frst time.
No doubt that, besides
improving campus safety as
well as the effciency of Law-
rence-Douglas County Fire
and Medical, fre fghters will
respond faster to the alarms in
residence halls.
Fire fghters will also spend
less time trucking between
the station and the residence
halls.
But why not take it one step
further?
A fre station could be set
up inside of McCollum Hall.
A small crew and ladder could
be maintained during peak
hours of fre alarms.
Not only would this cut
down waiting time, it would
build rapport between the two
competing groups and could
give an intimidating presence
to would-be alarmists.
Its a great idea.
But an even better idea
would be to quit pulling so
many fre alarms.

rial board
Issue: The new fre sta-
tion at 19th and Iowa

mean improved student
safety, it will also means

The city of Lawrence is con-
sidering a proposal that calls for
a review of potential retail spaces
over 50,000 square feet. The aim
of this proposal is to protect the
fnancial viability of downtown
Lawrence as the town continues
to expand westward.
The motivation behind this
proposal is admirable. However,
the approach seems too focused
on one side of a fundamentally
two-sided problem. Furthermore,
without a diversifcation of effort,
the proposed plan may do more
harm than good.
The proposed review process
would consist of a tax-based as-
sessment of Lawrences ability to
support another retailer without
threatening existing stores that
deal in a particular type of product
shoes, for example. If the
review fnds that the city cannot
support another retail center, the
city would have the power to deny
that retailer the chance to operate.
I strongly advocate supporting
local business, particularly those
in the downtown area, because
they contribute to one of my fa-
vorite parts of Lawrence. None-
theless, Lawrence isnt a vacuum,
and sometimes the affordability
of retail goods from nearby metro
areas can be just too attractive to
walk away from.
Because of this, the approach
outlined above may not be
entirely wrong, but it seems short
sighted. The fact that this pro-
posal has been made implies the
sense that downtown stores are,
or soon will be, having trouble
competing with other stores in
town. This is likely, at least in
part, the result of higher rent
for space, which translates into
higher costs for consumers. This
phenomenon is even more pro-
nounced when the cost of goods
sold downtown is compared
with that of goods sold in nearby
metro areas.
It seems very likely that if this
existing proposal passes, the re-
sult will be an increased property
value for the already existing
retail centers thus, an increase
in rent and an increase in end
costs to consumers. Following
this, the downtown area will be
even less competitive with stores
in surrounding metro areas.
So here enters the second
side of the problem, which is
not being addressed adequately.
Something needs to be done not
only to lessen the competition
for downtown retailers, but also
to make the downtown retailers
more competitive in their own
right. Somehow, prices of goods
need to be lowered to a more
competitive range. An adjust-
ment in property tax may be one
means to a solution. Whatever
the answer is, I genuinely believe
that most people in Lawrence will
pay a little extra to support a spe-
cial part of Lawrence, but these
people need to be met halfway.

Semester time limit
short shrifts GTAs
t our opinion
One of the most common
worries facing Americans
today is job security work-
ers are wondering whether
they will be able to con-
tinue working and supporting
themselves.
Here at the University,
where students come to learn
how to navigate the job
market, a similar situation
presents itself. The Univer-
sity has declared that GTAs
should not be able to hold
onto positions long enough
to complete a degree, capping
appointments at 10 semesters.
After this, students must find
their own sources of funding.
According to The University
Daily Kansan, the University
considers this a non-mon-
etary issue. The need to have
a steady paycheck for the
duration of study is a non-
monetary issue? Nonsense.
Keeping their jobs is a
central monetary issue for
GTAs. All the salary changes
in the world dont amount to
anything if graduate stu-
dents arent allowed to keep
working until their degree is
finished.
The University knows 10
semesters isnt sufficient
because six credit hours is
considered full time for teach-
ing graduate students. We
shouldnt need to send this
down to the math department
to figure out that nine semes-
ters would be spent before
even reaching the disserta-
tion phase in most areas of
study. One semester to write
a dissertation? That doesnt
exactly sound like a way to
promote academic excellence.
Follow your own logic KU
clearly the 10 semester rule
has got to go.

Bay City, Mich.
The University of Kansas is
nationally known as a mens
basketball school. 16,300 fans
pack Allen Fieldhouse when-
ever there is a home game to
cheer on the Jayhawks. The
University is also creating
a buzz about its improving
football program. Back in Oc-
tober, 54,109 fans made the
trek to Arrowhead Stadium to
watch Kansas play the Okla-
homa Sooners. That is a lot
of fan support for two teams
who definitely deserve it, but
what about the non-revenue
sports? They deserve just as
much attention, especially
since the student body of the
University recently voted to
give them extra money.
Last week in the Student
Senate elections, voters ap-
proved Referendum No. 2,
which increases the student
fee by $20 each semester to
support non revenue sports
everything but mens
basketball and football. If the
student body is not against
increasing fees each semester
to support these teams, there
is no reason not to go out and
actually support these events
in person.
Im not knocking the mens
basketball team or football
team and the support they
get. I went to every home
football game and traveled to
Manhattan and Arrowhead
Stadium and attended every
home mens basketball game
but one. You may call me a
hypocrite for not attending
all the womens basketball
games, but I did go to a
couple and had a fun time.
Its fun to be a sports fan and
to support all sports.
Now that both of those
seasons are over, sports fans
need something to fill the
sports voids in their lives
until Sept. 2, when the foot-
ball team kicks off its season
against Northwestern State.
This weekend is the perfect
time to start supporting some
of the sports that the in-
creased fee will support next
fall.
The headlining event for
the weekend is the Kan-
sas Relays, which will be
held through Saturday and
include Goldzone II. This
is a chance to pack Memo-
rial Stadium and watch not
only world-class athletes like
Olympic champion Maurice
Greene, but also competitors
in high school and college,
including athletes from the
University.
This event should draw
crowds like the basketball or
football games. Its too bad
that it doesnt. Just more than
24,000 people attended Gold-
zone last spring. The average
attendance at each home
football game this season was
more than 43,000.
Any student here who is
a sports fan should be more
than happy to trek over to
Memorial Stadium and watch
world-class athletes perform
free with a student ID. If
a vote can pass to increase
student fees, and if students
are willing to pay this amount
each semester, then people
should support the events,
too.
If youre not interested in
track and field, there are a
couple of other non revenue
sports taking the field this
weekend. Baseball starts a
three-game series with Kansas
State tonight at Hoglund
Park. Nothing beats a base-
ball game against an in-state
rival. With an increase in fan
support, baseball games are
becoming just as fun to at-
tend as basketball or football
games. The softball team also
takes on Texas this weekend
at home.
Get your 20 bucks worth
of quality sporting events.
Its as simple as if you voted
yes last week. Go support
the teams who work hard and
want fans to fill their stands
just like the mens basketball
and football teams do.

LITTLETON, Colo. As a
sophomore at Columbine High
School seven years ago, Marjo-
rie Lindholm was a cheerleader
with a 3-plus grade-point aver-
age who wanted to become a
doctor.
Her life changed dramati-
cally when the killing spree
began on April 20, 1999. Lind-
holm found herself locked in a
classroom with other students
and a teacher, Dave Sanders.
She was there for four hours
as Sanders and 12 classmates
were gunned down by students
Eric Harris and Dylan Kle-
bold, who later shot and killed
themselves.
Now 24, Lindholm believes
she has only recently begun to
heal. Writing a book, A Colum-
bine Survivors Story, with her
mother has helped, she said.
Many survivors have moved
on after the deadliest school
shooting in the nations history.
But for others marking the mas-
sacres seven-year anniversary
Thursday, it has been more dif-
fcult.
Sean Graves was shot four
times and paralyzed from the
waist down. The father of Mark
Taylor, who was hit by more than
a dozen bullets, left his family
in 2001 after 34 years of mar-
riage. Anne Marie Hochhalters
mother killed herself 18 months
after the massacre, which left
her daughter paralyzed from the
waist down.
Brooks Brown, a friend of the
two killers, was briefy named a
suspect by authorities, outrag-
ing family members who had
reportedly tried to warn sheriffs
deputies that Harris had threat-
ened Brooks and was building
bombs. Brown said he is now
doing well, running a small vid-
eo production company.
And there are others.
Columbine Principal Frank
DeAngelis went through a di-
vorce after throwing himself into
his work, but is now engaged to
his high school sweetheart.
There were no classes at Col-
umbine on Thursday, as is the
case each anniversary. Relatives
of the victims and survivors by
now are used to calls from re-
porters. For Dawn Anna, the
mother of Lauren Townsend,
the 18-year-old valedictorian
slain that day, the calls are far
from a nuisance.
When you call you are re-
membering Lauren, she said.
When you hit bottom you dont
stay down there very long. Is-
sues come that take you back.
But we have chosen to remem-
ber Laurens light and beauty.
Brian Rorhbough, whose
son, Daniel, was killed, planned
to host a radio show Thursday
to discuss the investigation into
the killers and whether the at-
tack could have been prevented,
as some contend. The public
has a right to know what hap-
pened, he said.
In her book, Lindholm re-
counts her memories of April
20, 1999.
Within seconds, the whole
building began to shake, and I
heard the unmistakable sound
of gunshots and extremely loud
screaming, she wrote. The
gunfre was so loud that it didnt
seem like normal guns could
make that much noise.
About 20 students and teach-
ers took shelter in the science
classroom two doors down from
the library, where most of the
killing was done.
Sanders, Lindholms typing
teacher, was brought into the
room with gunshot wounds to
his neck and upper back. Stu-
dents covered him in a blanket
and took pictures of his fam-
ily from his wallet and showed
them to him, hoping to keep
him conscious.
I cant breathe and Im not
going to make it, he said, ac-
cording to Lindholms recollec-
tion.
The rescue was as terrifying as
the wait, with SWAT team mem-
bers leading the students out at
gunpoint, apparently unaware
whether they were victims or as-
sailants.

seventh anniversary of the Columbine High School shooting. Aimees husband Stephen was DePooters best friend. He was also shot during the mas-
sacre at the school.

Victims recall worst school shooting
the AssociAted PRess
RIVERTON Five teen-
age boys accused of plotting a
shooting rampage at their high
school on the anniversary of the
Columbine massacre were ar-
rested Thursday after details of
the alleged scheme appeared on
the Web site MySpace.com.
Sheriffs deputies found guns,
ammunition, knives and coded
messages in the bedroom of one
suspect, Sheriff Steve Norman
said. Authorities also found
documents about frearms in
two suspects school lockers.
What the resounding theme
is: They were actually going to
do this, Norman said.
Norman said he would ask
prosecutors to bring charges of
conspiracy to commit murder
against the teens, ages 16 to 18.
He said the state attorney general
would handle the prosecution.
Deputies interviews with the
suspects indicated they planned
to wear black trench coats and
disable the schools camera
system before starting the at-
tack between noon and 1 p.m.
Thursday, Norman said. The
suspects apparently had been
plotting since the beginning of
the school year.
Offcials at Riverton High
School began investigating on
Tuesday after learning that a
threatening message had been
posted on MySpace.com, he said.
The message discussed the
signifcance of April 20, which
is Adolf Hitlers birthday and
the anniversary of the 1999 Col-
umbine High School attack in
Colorado, in which two students
wearing trench coats killed 13
people and committed suicide,
the sheriff said. Norman said
that the potential victims were
popular students and that the
suspects may have been bullied.

The Kansas Relays opened Thursday with the
mens hammer throw.
As one of the events to hold tight competition,
the event did not disappoint.
Kansas sophomore thrower Egor Agafonovs
throw of 222 feet 2 inches placed
second in the event.
The Russian was coming off
a huge meet at last weeks Mesa
Classic where he set the new
Kansas hammer throw distance
of 228 feet 6 inches. Agafonov
didnt mind his lesser perfor-
mance Thursday, though.
Im not upset that I didnt
win, he said. Its just a sport.
Some of Agafonovs throws
clipped the net, which was a
cause of concern for hammer
throw coach Andy Kokhanovsky.
The coach said the net was not
regulation size for the hammer.
Because of the microburst that
hit Lawrence earlier this year, the
cage had been moved and inter-
fered with some throws.
The one he threw and clipped
took off at least 7 to 10 feet to his
throw, Kokhanovsky said.
Winning the event for the third
straight year was Pac-Bay Track
Club member Nick Welihozkiy,
with a toss of 222 feet 8 inches.
I wasnt expecting to win,
thats the Gods honest truth,
said Welihozkiy. With Egor com-
ing in at 70.45, I knew this was
going to be an all-out war.
When asked why he likes to attend
the Kansas Relays, Welihozkiy happily responded.
My mom and dad attended Kansas and my dad
was a hammer throw coach, Welihozkiy said. I
love Lawrence and consider myself a Jayhawk,
the former Stanford Cardinal graduate said.
Kansas senior Sheldon Battle was signed up for
the event but did not participate, instead saving
his strength for his main events: discus and shot
put.
The womens hammer throw took place after
the mens and had competition.
Kansas freshman Zlata Tarasova placed second
in the hammer throw.
Tarasova is also coming off a strong Mesa Classic
event where she broke the Kansas womens record in
the hammer throw with a toss of 199 feet 11 inches.

Think Vince Young is the most accomplished
athlete from the University of Texas during the
past four years? Think again.
Has Young won any Olympic gold medals?
Nope. Did he win player of the year in his sport
twice and have a chance to do it a third time? Not
even close. Was he the frst athlete from his sport
to grace the cover of Sports Illustrated? Sorry
Vince, you were about 100 covers late.
Only one Longhorn athlete has accomplished
all of those feats, and she is Cat Osterman.
Osterman, a pitcher likely to take the mound
against Kansas on Saturday, currently leads the
nation with 27 wins (with only one loss) and 419
strikeouts. Earlier this year, the senior struck out
20 of 21 batters against UT-San Antonio.
Those numbers may seem outrageous, but they
are the norm for the lefty, whose career numbers
include a 0.50 ERA, 125 wins and an NCAA-re-
cord 2,027 strikeouts.
I think Cat is one of softballs all-time greats,
Texas coach Connie Clark said. Shes going to be
remembered with some of the very best.
Not a bad legacy for someone who didnt
even try pitching until she was 11. As a y o u t h
in Hous-
ton, Oster-
man was into
soccer, in which s h e
played goalkeeper. She also
played basketball though high
school. But once the 6-foot-2
Osterman began pitching, she
knew softball was for her.
Im a pretty stubborn
person, Osterman said.
If I make up my mind,
Im going to do it.
The Longhorn
coaching staff also
knew softball
was Ostermans
game after
her frst year
of high
s c h o o l ,

f i r s t
l a i d
eyes on the Cypress Springs High School
product.
We frst saw her at a tournament her
freshman year and then she came to our
softball camp, Clark said. I knew at that
point in time she was going to be special.
Three years later, Osterman arrived in
Austin. She let her presence be felt in her
freshman season, as she won Big 12 Player
of the Year, set an NCAA freshman record
for strikeouts and tied for the NCAA lead
in wins.
Ostermans season caught not only
the attention of hardcore softball heads
but the national media as well when
Sports Illustrated chose her to be
part of a cover that hailed Texas as
the best sporting school.

T
he way
K a s s i e
Humphreys sees it,
theres no reason to worry
about the opposing pitcher.
Sure, Humphreys knows she
might match up against Texas Cat
Osterman, one of the nations top
pitchers, this weekend at Arrocha
Ballpark. But the way shes pitched
in April, Humphreys has little reason
to be concerned.
After a personal sweep of Texas
Tech last weekend and her team-
mates hot bats in recent games,
Humphreys said she was as
confdent in herself and her
teammates as ever.
I really think with the
way that were hitting right
now if this carries over
into the weekend, which I
really do think it will, theres really
not a lot to worry about, the junior
pitcher said.
When on the mound, theres no
time to worry. Instead, she just ooz-
es confdence. Whether winning or
losing, Humphreys delivery never
changes.
Its still pretty focused, Hum-
phreys said of her mindset when
pitching in different situations. I
just come out and try and get ahead
of hitters and when runners get on,
especially in scoring position, you
just have to get mentally tough.
Reaching base against Humphreys
has been quite a feat, especially in
April.
In her past 57 innings on the
mound, Humphreys has allowed
only 18 hits. That translates to only
three hits a game in month of April.
She currently sits in second in the
overall Big 12 Conference, behind
Osterman, in pitching rankings.
What Kassie has been doing the
last couple weeks is throwing the
ball among the best in the country,
Kansas coach Tracy Bunge said,

Senior pitcher Serena Settlemier is congratulated by her teammates after hitting a grand slam
against Creighton University Thursday afternoon at Arrocha Ballpark. Kansas beat Creighton 10-0.
By MarK DEnt

kansan sportswriter
Because Babe Ruth is known
as the Sultan of Swat for his hit-
ting prowess, the Jayhawk nation
should refer to Serena Settlemier
as the Countess of Crush for her
Ruth-like presence at the plate.
Thursday, Settlemier hit her sec-
ond grand slam in three games to
lift Kansas to a 10-0 victory in the
second game of its double-header
against Creighton.
In the bottom of the third in-
ning, the senior pitcher stepped up
to the plate with the bases full and
the Jayhawks holding a 1-0 lead.
When I came up to bat, I could
hear the whole crowd talking home
run, Settlemier said. I was just
thinking relax and make contact.
Settlemier did more than make
contact as she blasted the frst
pitch deep over the left feld fence
for her sixth grand slam and 20th
home run of the season.

The No. 63 Kansas tennis
team will do the Texas Two Step
this weekend when it faces Tex-
as A&M on Saturday and Texas
on Sunday.
Texas and Texas A&M are
tied for second place in the
Big 12 with a conference re-
cord of 7-2. Texas holds the
better overall record at 13-10,
while Texas A&M has a record
of 12-10.
Kansas comes into the match
holding the No. 8 spot in the
conference with an overall re-
cord of 13-8, and a conference
record of 4-5.
They are gonna be tough
matches, Kansas coach Amy
Hall-Holt said. A&M is always
tough, and with Texas being a
big powerhouse as it is, weve go
to be with our minds and games
ready to go to play a tough
weekend.
Kansas will need to play its
best tennis this weekend to
come out victorious in both
matches. Texas and Texas A&M
are ranked No. 19, and No. 36
in the nation, respectively.
Freshman Ksenia Bukina
will hold the No. 1 spot on
the team in singles competi-
tion, but the proven backbone
has been at the No. 2 spot,
which sophomore Liza Avde-
eva occupies. Before losing
to Baylor on April 9, Avde-
eva had a team-high 11-game
winning streak. Avdeeva cur-
rently has won 12 of her last
13 matches.
I am kind of playing bet-
ter than last fall, so its kind of
surprising me, Avdeeva said. I
think Im doing well right now.
Avdeevas last loss before
Baylor was against Texas Tech
on March 5 when she lost in
two sets.
Her record shows, shes 7-2
in the Big 12 right now if she
can continue winning out like
she has been in the last several
matches and winning big points
for us and taking us to a differ-
ent level, shes gonna do well,
Hall-Holt said.
Avdeevas most notable vic-
tory came last weekend when
Kansas faced Colorado. The
Jayhawks were down, 3-2,
with only two singles matches
left. After losing her first set
to the No. 99 singles player,
she was down 5-3 in the sec-
ond set. Avdeeva overcame
the deficit to win the second
set, and won the third set also
to help the team get the vic-
tory.
Currently, there are four
teams within one game of Kan-
sas in the Big 12 standings. The
two matches this weekend will
help determine KUs seed in the
Big 12 Tournament on April 27-
30 in Waco, Texas.

Pitcher
continued from 1B
With the bases loaded, Settlemier is 7-for-8 with
six grand slams on the year.
I knew her stats were good but not that good,
Kansas coach Tracy Bunge said. Its like thats
where she zeroes in the best. I think she believes
she can take it out of the yard in every at bat.
She just gets hyped when the bases are loaded,
junior pitcher Kassie Humphreys said. If I was pitch-
ing against her in that situation, Id just walk her.
And just like Ruth, Settlemier did a fne job
pitching as well. The right-hander pitched four
out of the fve innings and didnt allow a run,
while striking out six.
It was a great day pitching for us, Bunge said.
Were pitching as good as anybody right now.
Even though Settlemier delivered the striking
blow against the Blue Jays, the rest of the Jayhawk
offense performed well too, lighting up Creighton
pitcher Cassidy Nee for nine hits. Humphreys
drove in the frst run on an RBI single in the sec-
ond inning to give Kansas (27-20, 5-6) the lead.
Team hitting as a whole has improved, Settle-
mier said. Were playing with a lot more conf-
dence since we can score runs early.
In the fourth inning the Jayhawks put across fve
more runs, including freshman third baseman Val
Chapples two-run round tripper, at which Bunge
shouted, Can we save any for the weekend?
The reason for Bunges joking plea is that the
Jayhawks square off against No. 2 Texas at Arrocha
Ballpark this weekend. The Longhorns lead the
Big 12 in ERA, giving up only .55 runs per game.
We have a lot of respect for both of their pitch-
ers, Bunge said. Itll be a dogfght, but weve
been there before.
softball notes:
n Kansas won the frst game of the doubleheader
8-0 with Humphreys picking up the victory.
n In their last four games, the Jayhawks have 41
hits.
n Twenty minutes before the frst pitch on Satur-
day, Kansas will retire the jerseys of former third
baseman Camille Spitaleri and outfelder Sheila
Connolly.

mann called for a taxi at 12:14
a.m., and that according to
sworn testimony he left in the

records show he stopped at
an ATM fve minutes later, the
person added, while informa-
tion provided by Duke shows
Seligmanns ID card was used

It has been a week to remem-
ber for the Kansas womens
lacrosse team. While the team
prepared for its upcoming play-
off game this weekend against
Lindenwood, it learned that
several players had been recog-
nized with postseason honors
for their work this season.
Lisa Allen and Bitz Marohl
were both named to the inaugural
Central Plains Womens Lacrosse
League All-League frst team. It
was the highest level of recogni-
tion awarded by the league.
Lisa Allen, leading scorer and
team captain for the Jayhawks,
was excited after receiving the
All-League decoration.
Being recognized person-
ally is an honor. I put a lot of
hard work into lacrosse, and it
is always rewarding to see the
results, the Highland Ranch,
Colo., sophomore said.
Marhol, Wahpeton, N.D.,
freshman, expressed her grati-
tude for the All-League honor
and thanked her teammates for
the successful season.
Our team could not have
done this without everyones
contribution, and especially our
dedicated coaches. It takes more
than just the select few that got
voted for this honor; it is the
whole team that deserves to be
recognized, Marhol said.
Kansas coach David Wiley
praised Marhols ability to ac-
quire the skills of lacrosse so
quickly, because she began play-
ing competitively last August.
She has a very unorthodox stick
style, leading many opponents
to believe shes an easy mark to
steal the ball from, but her speed
and feld sense quickly makes it
clear that getting the ball away
from her will be a diffcult task,
Wiley said.
Allen and Marhol were also
named to the 1st Team All-West
Division along with Crystal
Thomas, a freshman midfelder
from Highlands Ranch, Colo.
Allen and Thomas provided a
lethal combination for the Jay-
hawks on offense this season,
fnishing frst and second re-
spectively in goals scored.
Other Jayhawks receiving
postseason recognition includ-
ed Emily Ratzlaff, Kristen Shea-
hen, and Celie Wall, who were
all named to the Second Team
All-West Division.
The Jayhawks will travel to St.
Charles, Mo., to take on Linden-
wood University, but the play-
ers and coachers are optimistic
about their chances. Allen said
a positive attitude would be cru-
cial for success against the tal-
ented Lindenwood squad, but
said that if Kansas brought the
mindset to take care of business
the team felt it could win.

Kansas pitchers will face a
two-headed monster this week-
end against Kansas State. Se-
nior outfelders Barrett Rice
and Joe Roundy will likely hit
back-to-back in
the heart of the
Kansas State
batting lineup.
On the stat
sheet, Rice and
Roundy boast
similar num-
bers. On the
feld, the two
give pitchers a
sense of dj vu,
hitting one after
the other from
the right side of
the plate, sport-
ing similar goa-
tees and shaggy
hair.
I couldnt
tell you, Roun-
dy said, when
asked what differences he could
fnd in his and Rices playing
styles. I honestly couldnt tell
you that.
Rice and Roundy have com-
bined to lead the team in eight
offensive categories. Rice leads
with a .424 batting average
and 15 doubles, which are also
tops in the Big 12. Roundy has
a team best 55 hits, six home
runs, 44 RBI, 89 total bases and
a .664 slugging percentage. The
two are tied for the team lead in
triples with two each.
Even their coach, Brad Hill,
has noticed similarities in the
two. The only difference he no-
ticed was that Roundy struggled
a bit when he frst arrived, but
through hard work became the
hitter he was. As for Rice, Hill
said he made the transition
nearly fawlessly.
Barrett, it took him about
three or four weeks last year and
he got in a pretty good groove,
Hill said. He was a pretty natu-
ral hitter when he came to us.
Their backgrounds are fairly
similar as well. Rice transferred
to Kansas State as a junior after
playing two seasons at El Paso
Community College. Roundy
also transferred in after two
years of Juco ball in the south-
west. He played at Scottsdale
Community College in Arizo-
na.
Roundy said the two actu-
ally played against one another
while at their junior colleges,
but they never met until they ar-
rived at Kansas State. When it
came time to transfer, though,
the two were obviously on the
same page.
They were both fairly heav-
ily recruited and my guys who
recruited them did a great job of
bringing them in and showing
them exactly what Kansas State
was all about, Hill said. They
liked what they saw and so we
got them.
Rice and Roundy continued
to play together after last season.
Roundy said the two ended up
playing ball together last sum-
mer in the Northwoods League
in Waterloo, Iowa. In addition
to working well together on the
feld, the two get along off the
feld.
Were pretty good buddies,
we hang out a lot, Roundy
said.
Although the two are close
friends, both are aware which
player is producing better num-
bers. But the competition is
friendly.
We actually joke with each
other at the end of the day,
Roundy said. Hell come up to
me hes done this the last few
weeks and say Whatd you
go for today? just as a little joke
and its been fun.

For one weekend, track and
feld will come out from the shad-
ows and get the credit and public-
ity it deserves. Tomorrows Gold-
zone II will be one of the most
outstanding events in its sport
since the Olympics in Athens.
Thirty-six Olympians and
more than 100 major champions
will compete in the second-ever
Goldzone Saturday from 2-5
p.m. in Memorial Stadium. This
event attracted more than 30,000
fans last year and is expected to
attract way more Saturday.
Before I go on, I will admit that
I am not as schooled in the sport
of track and feld as I am in foot-
ball, baseball, basketball, golf and
badminton. I am not the guy to
ask if you want to know the name
of the Olympic record-holder in
the 1500 meters. Id say that Pre-
fontaine guy, and Id be wrong.
But this is my point exactly: I
am not spilling over with knowl-
edge of track and feld, but I am
still primed and ready to go out
and watch the Goldzone II. Judg-
ing by how many people went last
year, I dont think Im the only
one who feels that way.
The frst thing that amazes me
about these athletes is how athletic
they are. When was the last time
you ran a mile in less than four
minutes? Its just insane to think
about for the normal human. The
athletes in Saturday afternoons
events stopped being human when
they became freaks-of-athletes.
People who can run 100 meters in
10 seconds arent human. People
who can run 110 meters while re-
peatedly jumping over metal ob-
jects arent human either.
But the true appreciation for
what these athletes can do is
something thats more visible live
than on TV. When I watched the
Olympics on TV I didnt appreci-
ate the speed and athleticism of
the athletes. But when you go to
an event with world-class track
stars, you really get an idea of how
quick they are.
Even though I am not a guy
who knows oodles about track
and feld, meet director Tim
Weaver did a great job in getting
the best-known track stars in the
world to come to Lawrence. He
got Maurice Greene, Justin Gatlin,
Shawn Crawford, Allyson Felix,
Muna Lee and Allen Johnson.
The mens 100-meter dash will
be as good as it gets. The 2000
gold medalist at Sydney, Greene,
will face off against the 2004 gold
medalist at Athens, Gatlin. It will
last only 10 seconds, but thats the
race everyone is waiting to see. So
whether youre a track fan, or even
if you dont know anything about it,
you wont want to miss a meet that
has 36 Olympic athletes competing

EntErtainmEnt friDay, april 21, 2006 thE UnivErsity Daily Kansan 5B
Seth Bundy/KANSAN
ARIES (March 21-April 19) HHHH
You might wake up on the wrong side of the
bed, but once you look at what you would
like to do and have happen, youll feel bet-
ter. Opportunities will drop on you. Optimism
will help you grab them before it is too late.
Tonight: The party happens where you are.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHH
Expect that others will be observing your
actions and style. Dont worry -- you have
a lot going for you. The responsibility might
drag you down a bit. Accept an invitation
for a late lunch. You will want to start your
weekend as soon as possible.
Tonight: A star.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHHH
Read between the lines with someone you
converse with frequently. Easily, it might
be what they dont say that is important.
Detach, and understand where others are
coming from. Walk in their shoes.
Tonight: Blaze a new trail.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHH
A close encounter fts the bill right now.
Whether you are having a heavy conversa-
tion with the boss or an intimate discussion
with a loved one doesnt matter. You need
to feel these different types of connections.
Tonight: Add some spice to the moment.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHH
You might feel as if someone close to you is
testing your limits. He or she just might be.
You also might want to consider how great
your need to be in control is. Could this be a
factor in your feelings? Let go and see what
happens.
Tonight: So many choices.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHH
Pace yourself as best you can. You could be
a bit overwhelmed by all that you need to
get done. Curb a tendency to look at rising
issues bleakly. Your attitude could make or
break a situation. Watch. Observe.
Tonight: Easy does it.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHHH
You might be worried about fulflling a
commitment right now. You will do just fne.
Have more faith in your creativity. A money
investment or risk might look good now,
but tomorrow you could be singing another
tune.
Tonight: You carry the weekend celebration
banner.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHH
If you can hang close to home, all the
better. You will be able to complete any
project more quickly in this environment. An
opportunity could be irresistible. Why not
go for it?
Tonight: Dont stray far from home.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHHH
Choose your words with care, as others
really are listening. Your feelings could well
over if facing an emotional situation -- be
it happy or sad. Communication fourishes,
especially if you use your verbal skills.
Tonight: Catch up on anothers news.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHH
You might not realize the impact of a money
decision on you and someone else. In
fact, fnances could be causing an issue
between you and this person. Associates
and friends show their true colors.
Tonight: Avoid spending more than you
want.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHHH
You have much more magnetism than you
realize. Someone could be giving you a
hard time, but look at everyone else! Your
popularity soars, and in return you revitalize
and have more energy and time.
Tonight: You call the shots.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHH
Play it low-key, and you will be far more
content. News from a distance could be ex-
citing. Keep this info hush-hush until every
detail is shored up. Sometimes you need to
relax and let events unfold.
Tonight: Not available.

SPORTS 6B THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN FRIDAY, APRIL 21, 2006
Humphreys
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B
following the team splitting a series with Baylor
earlier in the month.
Humphreys was in a stretch earlier in the month
where she only allowed two hits in 24 innings. It
was during that stretch that Humphreys won the
Big 12 Pitcher of the Week award in consecutive
weeks.
At the same time, Humphreys name is climb-
ing up the Kansas career pitching records. Just
this season, she has jumped two spots on the all-
time strikeout list, moving up to sixth place with
431 strikeouts.
Unlike baseball, where pitchers often get ve
days rest in between starts, softball pitchers could
start on back-to-back days, like Humphreys did
against Texas Tech.
With a two-pitcher rotation, Humphreys and
senior Serena Settlemier rack up large pitch totals
in a short period of time.
The good thing about softball is that you can
go back-to-back days, Humphreys said. I threw
a workout yesterday in the bullpen and felt ne.
After the weekend sweep, Humphreys had three
days rest between starts. She recorded another vic-
tory Wednesday night against Creighton, bringing
her mark closer to an even .500 at 12-13.
When she takes the mound this weekend against
No. 2 Texas, shell have little reason to worry.
Texas, its a big enough challenge in itself,
Humphreys said. We had them in close games
last year, its going to be a really tight ballgame.
Edited by Meghan Miller
Osterman
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B
Osterman became the rst softball
player to appear on the cover of the
weekly sports magazine.
It was fun, especially since I hadnt
made a huge name for myself yet, Oster-
man said. The biggest thing was having
womens athletics on the cover though. It
was an amazing accomplishment.
After blowing away hitters in her own
country, Osterman had the opportunity
to take her warp-speed pitches global
when the USA Softball Team gave her
the opportunity to represent the squad
in the 2004 Athens Olympics. Osterman,
the only collegiate player selected to the
team, didnt allow a run, led the team in
strikeouts and helped the U.S. to a gold
medal.
It was fun to represent my country
and to be a part of it, Osterman said.
That learning experience at a young age
really elevated my game.
When the gold medalist returned
home to Texas, she won her second Soft-
ball Collegiate Player of the Year Award,
nabbed an ESPY award for Top Female
College Athlete, and turned the Horns
around from a 24-29 record in her ab-
sence to Big 12 champions and competi-
tors in the College World Series again.
This season has been no different as
Osterman has Texas (43-4, 9-1) atop the
Big 12 standings and ranked second in
the country, a prime position for another
championship run.
Even with all of her fame and accom-
plishments, Osterman is modest, but at
the same time outgoing and engaging.
But when she rst came to Austin, Os-
terman wasnt always the most pleasant
person. Clark said the team used to tease
her about how her eyebrows revealed the
type of mood she was in.
If they were in a down position, we
could tell Cat was in a bad mood, Clark
said. If they were in a neutral position
we knew she was in a good mood. Some-
times wed call her Oscar, like the char-
acter on Sesame Street.
But as her game developed, her per-
sonality developed as well, to the point
that Clark said shes always in a good
mood and jokes around with her team-
mates constantly.
Osterman is determined to end her
softball season on top.
I need to go out there and do my
best, Osterman said, because I want to
bring us a national title.

NCAA BASKETBALL
Gonzagas Morrison
declares for NBA draft
SPOKANE, Wash. Gonza-
ga All-America forward Adam
Morrison declared for the NBA
draft Wednesday, passing up
his senior season for a chance
to be a lottery pick.
The 6-foot-8 oppy-haired,
mustachioed forward, who led
Division I in scoring last sea-
son at 28.1 points per game,
is a diabetic and said uncer-
tainty over his future health
prospects was a factor in his
decision.
Its been a great process so
far. Its been fun, but Ive de-
cided to try to take my game to
the next level and further my
career as a basketball player,
Morrison said at a campus
news conference.
Morrison said he had a
verbal agreement etched in
stone with Chicago-based
agent Mark Bartelstein, who
also represents former Gon-
zaga stars Dan Dickau and
Blake Stepp, and Bulls guard
Jannero Pargo, brother of
Gonzagas Jeremy Pargo. That
agreement means Morrison
will not be able to change his
mind and return for his senior
year. The West Coast Confer-
ence player of the year, Mor-
rison edged Dukes J.J. Redick
for this years national scoring
title. He nished second to
Redick for the Naismith and
John R. Wooden Awards for
college basketballs player of
the year.
Gonzaga coach Mark Few
said his staff and team were
ecstatic for Morrison.
Morrison surpassed the
college accomplishments of
Gonzaga great John Stockton.
But it remains to be seen if he
can have the same impact on
the NBA, as critics have com-
plained about his defense and
downplayed his passing and
rebounding abilities.
There is no doubt Morrison
can shoot, making nearly 50
percent of his shots, includ-
ing 43 percent of 3-pointers,
even with defenders hanging
all over him. Morrison drew
comparisons to Larry Bird, for
a similar high release on his
jump shot, and Pete Maravich
and other scoring greats of the
past.

Annual Sunfower Series
Kansas vs. Kansas State
7 p.m., Friday, April 21, Hoglund Ballbark
KU
First Pitch
KSU
First Pitch
OFFenSe:
Last weekend, Kansas dropped its frst
Big 12 Conference series in three weeks.
The Jayhawks were no match for the hitter-
friendly confnes of Allie P. Reynolds Stadium
in Stillwater, Okla., but not for lack of of-
fense. Even when losing to Oklahoma State
by 12 runs last Saturday, the Jayhawks still
watched six different players in their lineup
homer in the defeat. While the team brings
heavy bats with 49 home runs this
season it doesnt always use them the
most productive way possible with 295
strikeouts. In the teams pair of midweek
games, however, the Jayhawks showed
no mercy, crushing Missouri State and
Tabor by at least 10 runs apiece.
DeFenSe:
When Kansas
gets the opportu-
nity to face off
against oppo-
nents like Mis-
souri State
and Tabor
in midweek
match-ups,
Coach Ritch
Price takes
it as a
chance to
work his
younger,
less experienced players
into the lineup. Even as
players subbed in and
changed positions,
the defense remained
solid and the Jay-
hawks committed just
one error in a pair of
games that saw a combined
12 substitutes and six pitch-
ing changes on Tuesday and
Wednesday. Kansas was able
to display some of its younger
pitching this week, but tonight
the weekend rotation will step back
in. Junior lefty Sean Land (4-6, 5.17)
goes tonight, senior righty Ricky Fairchild
(4-4, 5.40) on Saturday and senior right-
hander Kodiak Quick (7-2, 3.28) will handle
the series fnale.

COACHing:
Price uses the opportunity to play all of
the players who see more bench time than
playing time, but its not always possible.
Price, however, has made it clear with both
his words and his actions that if the oppor-
tunity comes up he will rest a starter to get
a younger, less experienced player some at
bats. This weekend will not allow for many
chances to use anybody but the best, as the
Wildcats look to win their frst series against
the Jayhawks in three years. Kansas has won
fve of their past six meetings.

OFFenSe:
The Kansas State offense doesnt do
anything great, but it can do a little bit of ev-
erything. The Wildcats have the fourth-high-
est team batting average in the Big 12 (.322),
but are seventh in home runs (20) and sixth
in RBI (144) and stolen bases (50) partly
because they have played only 34 games,
compared to other teams in the conference
that have played more than 40 games. Indi-
vidually, senior outfelders Barrett Rice and
Joe Roundy can do some damage. Rice leads
the Big 12 with a .424 batting average and is
tied for the lead in doubles with 15. Roundy
is third in the conference with a .410 batting
average and tied for fourth in RBI with 44.
DeFenSe:
Kansas States .972 felding percentage
is tied for the third best in the Big 12. The
Wildcats are averaging just over one error
per game with 37 and just under one double
play per game with 30. Senior catcher Bran-
don Farr is one of the best in the conference
at keeping the ball from reaching the back-
stop with only four passed
balls. However, he has
allowed 30 stolen
bases, compared to
the three base run-
ners hes thrown
out. Kansas State
has a decent ERA
at 3.89, but ranks
in the bottom half of
the Big 12 with 7.12
strikeouts per nine
innings. The Wildcat
staff has great control,
though, with only 76
walks, the fewest in the
conference.
Kansas State coach
Brad Hill has done
an amazing job
scouting the junior
college scene. Rice,
Roundy, Farr and
junior infelder Jared
Goedert transferred
in from junior
colleges and are
batting over .350.
Senior right- handed starter
Adam Cowart (5-3) is also from a junior
college and anchors the Kansas State staff.
He leads all regular starters with a 3.13 ERA
and leads the team with 51 strikeouts in 60.1
innings. Yet, Kansas State is 3-8-1 in the Big 12
and will likely miss the Big 12 tournament for
the fourth straight year.
Shawn Shroyer
At A glAnce
Despite a two to one loss to
Oklahoma State last weekend
in Stillwater, Okla., Kansas
is still at the fourth spot in
the Big 12 Conference stand-
ings. This should be the last
weekend for Kansas (27-15,
7-8) without starting second
baseman Ryne Price. The
sophomore is continuing his
recovery from wrist surgery.
lASt time out
The Jayhawks spent the week
at home after returning from
Oklahoma on Sunday to play
Missouri State and Tabor.
On Tuesday, the Jayhawks
erupted for a season-high 19
runs scored on the Bears and
took the victory, 19-7. Kansas
defeated Tabor Wednesday
night, 14-4.
PlAyer to wAtch
Jared Schweitzer. The senior
infelder adjusted from his
usual frst
basemans spot
to flling in on
second while
Price recovers
from injury.
Schweitzer
has made the
adjustment
look comfort-
able. He has
been healing from a dislocated
shoulder he suffered against
Wichita State but is healthy
now. Schweitzer is lethal with
the bat. In his last fve games,
the infelder hit .450, scored eight
times and drove in fve runs.

looking ForwArd
Kansas must now rechannel its
energy from the middle of the
week in the quest to pick up
its third Big 12 series victory
this season. This series against
Kansas State may be one of
the most important of the year.
key to victory
Pitching. Lately, the starting
weekend rotation has slipped
in its effectiveness and consis-
tency. Junior pitcher Sean Land
will bring his intimidating fast-
ball and senior pitcher Ricky
Fairchild will try and work out
of jams by creating fy balls.
Senior pitcher Kodiak Quick
and Czyz are a lethal combina-
tion on Sundays the Jay-
hawks have not lost on Sunday
for four consecutive weeks.
Kansas also has to watch the
longevity of Czyzs recent pitch-
ing appearances. He threw
four innings in his closing shift
last Sunday against Oklahoma
State.
At A glAnce
The Wildcats are still looking
for their frst Big 12 series
victory. Kansas State (23-10-1,
3-8-1) began the season 17-1,
including a 16-game winning
streak, but have since gone 6-
9-1. Kansas State managed Big
12 victories against Missouri,
Nebraska and Texas Tech. Texas
dominated Kansas State,
though, outscoring it 27-13 in a
three-game sweep.
lASt time out
Kansas State played at Wichita
State on Tuesday and fell 7-3 to
the Shockers. The Wildcats had
only four hits in the game, but
one belonged to senior catcher
Brandon Farr. It extended his
hit streak to 17 games. Fresh-
man right-hander Todd Vogel
had a rough start, allowing
four runs on six hits and a
walk in just two innings.
PlAyer to wAtch
Brandon Farr. The senior catcher
Brandon Farr
was named Big
12 Co-Player
of the Week

Kansas State had a winning
conference record.
looking ForwArd
Only Texas A&Ms 3-12 Big 12
record is worse than Kansas
States. If the Wildcats lose
the series this weekend, their
series against the Aggies in
May might decide the team
that gets stuck in the base-
ment of the Big 12. If Kansas
State wins this weekend, it will
still have an outside chance at
passing Missouri to make the
conference tournament.
key to victory
Kansas State batters dont
strike out often and Kansas
pitchers dont record many
strikeouts, so the Wildcats will
need to continue to put the
ball in play and manufacture
runs. Kansas State pitchers
cant allow Kansas hitters, who
posted eight home runs at
Oklahoma State last weekend,
to rack up runs.
Around the Big 12
no. 4 nebraska (30-5, 10-2) at no. 5 texas (27-13, 12-2)
This will be one of the premiere series of the regular season and is a Col-
lege World Series match-up waiting to happen. Nebraska is the defending
Big 12 Champion while Texas is the defending National Champion. On paper,
Nebraska looks to be in prime position to win the series and overtake Texas
in the Big 12 standings. The Huskers are on a 12-game winning streak, have
the second highest batting average (.326), the second most home runs (50),
the second most stolen bases (63) and the lowest team ERA (2.98) in the Big
12. Texas lost on Tuesday to Texas-San Antonio, but has swept three of its fve
Big 12 series this season. Compared to Nebraska, Texas has a .290 team bat-
ting average, 34 home runs, 47 stolen bases and a 3.71 team ERA. Neverthe-
less, the Longhorns have only two losses at home and havent lost a weekend
series since early March.
oklahoma State (22-12, 5-7) at missouri (17-18, 6-9)
Oklahoma State and Missouri currently occupy the seventh and eighth
spots, respectively, in the Big 12. Both teams are fghting to stay in the feld for
the Big 12 Tournament coming up next month. The Cowboys havent returned
from a road trip without a bitter taste in their mouth since the frst weekend of
the season when they won two of three in the Jaguar Invitational. Since then,
Oklahoma State is 1-9 away from Stillwater, Okla. The Cowboys will travel to
Columbia, Mo., after winning four of their last fve. Missouri came into the sea-
son with high expectations, but its season has spiraled downward ever since.
Junior right-hander and preseason All-American Max Scherzer continues to
have arm issues and is listed as questionable this weekend. The Tigers had
lost nine straight games before a victory over St. Louis on Wednesday.
no. 23 oklahoma (29-10, 8-4) at texas tech (26-14-1, 6-7-1)
This series is key for each school. Oklahoma is on Nebraskas heels in
the Big 12. If Nebraska gets swept by Texas and Oklahoma can sweep Texas
Tech, Oklahoma would move up to a two-way tie for second in the conference.
Texas Tech is sitting at sixth in the Big 12, but a series victory could move it
as high as fourth, depending on how Kansas and Baylor do this weekend.
Oklahoma comes in with a seven-game winning streak and has won nine of
its last 10 games, including a victory over No. 3 Rice on Tuesday. Sophomore
Joe Dunigan led the way on offense for the Sooners going 3-for-5 with two
runs and three RBI with two solo home runs. Texas Tech hasnt won a Big 12
series since it took two of three from Baylor three weeks ago, but it knocked
off No. 10 Arizona State on Monday. Junior lefty Aaron Odom shut Arizona
State batters down, allowing just two runs in six innings. The effort helped
him earn Big 12 Co-Pitcher of the Week honors.
