Sigma Nu fraternity offcials revoked the charter of the chapter at the
University of Kansas. The offcials recently concluded an investigation of
allegations of misconduct at the fraternity.
Fraternity
loses
charter
By Louis Mora

Kansan staff writer
Sigma Nu fraternity offcials
announced Friday that they
have revoked the charter of the
local chapter after concluding
an internal investigation.
The decision, made by the
fraternitys national board of di-
rectors, found the chapter and
members in violation of policies
involving the treatment of new
members, said Brad Beacham,
executive director of Sigma Nu.
Sigma Nu Fraternity cannot
tolerate these activities that defy
the fraternitys most basic values
and principles, he said.
The initial complaint was
directed to the national head-
quarters. Sigma Nu offcials re-
sponded to the complaint, but
kept the University informed of
the developments of the investi-
gation.
While not directly involved in
the investigation, University of-
fcials stand by the decision of
the national headquarters.
The University is supportive
of the Sigma Nu national offce.
Hazing of any kind is a violation
of human dignity, said Marlesa
Roney, vice provost for student
success.
Members of the fraternity un-
derstood they were under inves-
tigation, but hearing the news at
a meeting Thursday evening left
members upset, said Sigma Nu
member Justin McAuley, Kansas
City, Kan., junior.
People in the house were
shocked, he said. Most of the
people had it in the back of their
mind but didnt believe it.
Jason Shaad, Derby senior
and Sigma Nu president, said
the punishment comes because
the national organization didnt
see enough progress after an in-
cident two years ago when the
University placed the chapter
on social probation.
In that incident, active mem-
bers of the fraternity threw a
prospective member into the air.
The individual hit his head and
had to be taken to the hospital.
The house made the request-
ed changes at that time and con-
tinued to make improvements,
Shaad said.
The changes included new
house rules, a revamped educa-
tion program for new members
as well as an increase in the
number of individuals recruit-
ed.
Its frustrating. The offcers
have put so much time and effort
into the house, Shaad said.
Members said they could
have used more support from
the national organization and
local Sigma Nu alumni. A con-
nection didnt develop between
the three groups, Shaad said.
More could have been done
to help us instead of them going
to the extreme and shutting our
house down, he said.
With no charter, the Univer-
sity will no longer recognize Sig-
ma Nu as a member of the greek
community. Most signifcantly,
that means the members must
fnd a new place to live.
The 57 members living in the
house have 30 days to fnd a
new place to live.
Shaad said he planned to
live with some other members
his age, but most of the mem-
bers would wind up in different
places.

Protestors return to campus
By Frank Tankard
ftankard@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
A group of students and Law-
rence citizens rallied against
military recruitment on cam-
pus for the second time in three
weeks on Friday.
About 20 people from a
group called Lawrence Counter-
Recruitment assembled in front
of the Kansas Union at noon,
gave a speech and then headed
to Strong Hall and delivered a
petition to Chancellor Robert
Hemenways offce.
The group collected many of
the approximately 300 signa-
tures on the petition during an
Aug. 25 rally on Wescoe Beach.
The petition was addressed to
Hemenway, Student Senate and
Provost David Shulenburger.
The petition demanded mili-
tary recruiters and ROTC be
booted from campus because of
the war in Iraq and the militarys
dont ask, dont tell policy for
queers. It contained the follow-
ing statement:
U.S. military policy blatant-
ly contradicts the Universitys
non-discrimination policy by
actively discriminating against
homosexuals, transgendered
peoples and those in same sex
relationships.
Shortly after the group deliv-
ered the petition, the University
issued the following statement:
Those individuals have the
right to protest the policy, just
as students have the right to
choose whether or not to seek
career opportunities and service
in the military.
Don Steeples, vice provost for
scholarly support, said kicking
the military off campus would
devastate the University fnan-
cially. The Solomon Amend-
ment, a law passed by Congress
in 1996, requires universities to
permit military recruitment on
campus in order to receive fed-
eral funding.
Kim Coughlin, Lawrence se-
nior and a member of the group,
wasnt satisfed with that re-
sponse.
We would challenge the Uni-
versity to take a higher ground
and say that in certain cases hu-
man dignity and human life are
more important than funding,
she said. Funding can be found
elsewhere.
The protests took on new ur-
gency and meaning when the
Philadelphia-based 3rd U.S.
Circuit Court of Appeals ruled
in 2004 that tying federal fund-
ing to military recruitment vio-
lated universities First Amend-
ment rights.
Steeples said he didnt be-
lieve the third circuit courts
ruling overturned the Solomon
Amendment. The Supreme
Court is expected to decide
whether the law is constitution-
al in the next year.
Coughlin said Lawrence
Counter-Recruitment would
likely return to Strong Hall un-
til they talked to Hemenway,
who was in a meeting when the
group delivered the petition.
We have a variety of actions
were planning for the semes-
ter, and the rest of the year, and
however long it takes till we get
military recruiters off campus,
she said.

Lawrence citizens gathered at
the Lawrence Public Library to
be a part of the September Proj-
ect. Those in attendance listened
to and discussed post-Sept. 11,
2001, issues on the fourth anni-
versary of the terrorist attacks.
The September Project start-
ed at a library at Washington
State University with the pur-
pose of remembering Sept. 11
in a meaningful way at libraries
around the world.
Shannon Portillo, Lawrence
graduate student, was part of
the committee that organized
the event. She said this was the
second year Lawrence was in-
volved.
The committee, which made
all the decisions about the proj-
ect, was made up of six Uni-
versity of Kansas students who
specialized in different areas,
Portillo said.

42,000 tickets sold for Arrowhead game
By ryan schneider
rschneider@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
The Kansas Athletics Depart-
ment is more than halfway toward
selling out Arrowhead Stadium in
Kansas City, Mo.
Nearly 42,000 tickets had been
sold for the game between Kansas
and Oklahoma, with the Oct. 15
kick-off more than a month away,
said Jim Marchiony, associate ath-
letics director. Arrowheads capac-
ity is 79,451.
Students who purchased a
football season ticket package can
pick up their ticket for the game
Oct. 10-14 from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.
at the ticket offce on the west side
of Memorial Stadium. Students
are allowed to have one ticket for
the game at the student price. Ad-
ditional tickets can be purchased
at the regular ticket price. Upper-
level tickets are $35 and lower-
level tickets are $55.
Kansas season ticket holders
seats at Arrowhead will be similar
to their seats at Memorial Stadi-
um, Marchiony said.
Kansas City Chiefs season tick-
et holders can purchase tickets to
all events at the stadium, including
college games and concerts. Near-
ly 4,000 tickets had been sold to
1,500 Chiefs season ticket holders,
team offcials said.
Marchiony said Oklahoma had
already sold its allotment of 3,800
tickets. He said there was no
way to tell at the moment which
schools fans had bought individ-
ual tickets.
The department receives the
revenue from ticket sales and the
Chiefs receive money from park-
ing and concession sales. Beer will
be sold at Arrowhead because the
game is off campus,
Arrowhead has played host to
nearly 10 college football games
since the stadium opened in 1972.
In Kansas last home game
against Oklahoma in 2001, the
game attracted 48,700 fans to
Memorial Stadium. This seasons
game marks the frst Jayhawks
game at Arrowhead and the pro-
grams 35th game in Kansas City
in 115 years of football. Kansas is
18-12-5 all-time in games played
in Kansas City.
Oklahoma is a name opponent,
marquee name that has a lot of fans
that will travel, Marchiony said.
Marchiony said the important
factor for having a game at Ar-
rowhead was there were already
six home games at Memorial Sta-
dium this season, similar to past
seasons. A game that fans would
travel to Kansas City would watch
was also a key factor.
We talked about it several
times in the past and it made sense
with so many alumni in the Kan-
sas City area and from a recruiting
standpoint, playing in a big NFL
stadium, Marchiony said.

KU HISTORY
Sept. 12, 1996
A parade was held to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the modern Jayhawk,
created by Hal Sandy. He sold his sketch of the bird on decals to pay for his fnal few
years in college, and then sold the copyright to the University of Kansas for $250 after
his graduation in 1947. According to an article by KU professor Mark Hersey, Jay-
hawk Jubilee, Sandy though his payment was a substantial amount of money.
The 1946 Jayhawk is the Universitys longest and most enduring symbol. The his-
tory of the Jayhawk dates back to the Civil War when the term was used to describe
anti-slavery Kansans and set them apart from pro-slavery Bushwhackers. Even though
some historical actions of the Jayhawkers are questionable, their ties to the Union vic-
tory and their anti-slavery stance has made the Jayhawk a source of state pride.
Sept. 11, 1969
Clarence Chalmers Jr. succeeded W. Clarke Wescoe as the 11th Chancellor of the
University of Kansas. Chalmers was offcially installed Sept. 15, 1969, Students class-
es were shortened by 30 minutes so they could attend the installation, which included
a speech by then-Gov. Robert Docking.
Sept. 14, 1926
Watkins Scholarship Hall opened under the philanthropic sponsorship of Eliza-
beth M. Watkins. The building was opened in honor of her late husband, Jabez Wat-
kins. Elizabeth Watkins began to donate her husbands millions to the University of
Kansas following her husbands death. She became known as the fairy godmother
of the University, and lived in what is now the chancellors residence.
Watkins and her husband married relatively late in life. She was 48 when she mar-
ried Jabez, who was 64. They had discussed how they would use their money to help
students because they did not have children. Before the scholarship hall opened, the
family provided assets to hundreds of students.
Watkins Memorial Health Center, east of Robinson Center, which opened in 1974,
is also named for the family. According to John H. McCools article, KUs Fairy God-
mother, Irvin E. Youngberg, executive of the KU Endowment Association, said that
no other family contributed more than the Watkins did.

Nationwide shortage
forces clinics to choose
By Tamarah DreiTz
editor@kansan.com
Kansan correspondent
A nationwide meningitis vaccine
shortage could cause problems for KU
students.
This year, all students living in Uni-
versity housing are required to receive
a meningitis vaccine, show documen-
tation that they have already received
the vaccine or sign a waiver stating
they do not want to receive the vac-
cine, but understand the risk in refus-
ing.
The Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention recommends that
universities require students living in
student housing receive a meningi-
tis shot. Meningitis is an infection of
fuid surrounding the brain and spinal
cord. Meningitis can lead to problems
with the nervous system, the loss of
limbs and possibly death.
In the spring of 2004, then-KU stu-
dent Andy Marso was airlifted from
Lawrence to the University of Kansas
Medical Center to be treated for men-
ingitis. Marso lost fngers and toes, as
well as parts of hands and feet. Marso
is expected to return to the Lawrence
area this week.
Students who receive the shot
choose between two vaccines, Menac-
tra and Menomune. According to the
American College Health Association,
the demand for Menactra exceeds the
supply that its manufacturer, Sanof
Pasteur, has made available.
We have had several college stu-
dents come into our clinic request-
ing the Menactra vaccine, and we
have had to turn them away, said
DeeAnn Schoenfeld, immunization
charge nurse at the Lawrence-Douglas
County Health Department. We have
stopped receiving supplies of Menac-
tra because the company that makes
the vaccine cannot keep up with the
demands.
The Menactra vaccine carries
some specifc advantages. Menactra
is thought to better stimulate the im-
mune system and lasts twice as long
as Menomune. Immunity from Men-
actra lasts 10 years compared to the
fve years Menomune lasts. Menac-
tra hit the market last March. Be-
cause it is fairly new, there is not as
much background information on it.
Menactra costs about $20 more than
Menomune.
Most students who get the menin-
gitis vaccination from Watkins Me-
morial Health Center will receive the
Menomune vaccination.
Students should not expect to re-
ceive the Menactra vaccine any time
soon, either. According to a statement
issued by Sanof Pasteur, providers
should expect periodic supply limita-
tions until the companys new manu-
facturing facility is online in early
2008. Increasing quantities of the vac-
cine should be available by the end of
this year.
Our facility along with every pub-
lic unit in the United States is getting
an allotment of 20 Menactra vaccines
per month, said Patricia Denning,
chief of staff at Watkins Memorial
Health Center. Once there are ample
supplies, we will then start to convert
over to Menactra because the vaccine
does have a longer life.
Since the policy requiring the men-
ingitis shot or a signed waiver was
instituted, 60 percent of students liv-
ing in student housing had chosen to
receive the vaccination, Denning said.
Two percent of students had signed
the waiver and 38 percent had not re-
sponded.

Exorcism scares its way
to top of the box offce
LOS ANGELES The Exorcism of
Emily Rose bedeviled its competition
in its box-offce debut this weekend,
hauling in $30.2 million with its mix of
courtroom drama and classic horror.
The flm, inspired by true events,
follows a Catholic priest on trial for
negligent homicide following the death
of a satanically possessed 19-year-old.
Its PG-13 rating and cast, including
Oscar nominees Tom Wilkinson, Laura
Linney and Shohreh Aghdashloo,
helped give it wide appeal, bumping
last weeks newcomer, Transporter
2, from the No. 1 spot, according to
studio estimates.
Overall revenue for this weekends
top 12 flms was up 16 percent from
the same period last year, said Paul
Dergarabedian, president of box-offce
tracker Exhibitor Relations.
Transporter 2 fell to third place
with three-day estimated ticket sales of
$7.2 million. The action sequel dropped
below The 40-Year-Old Virgin, which
held on to the No. 2 spot in its fourth
week with $7.9 million, boosting its
total domestic gross to $82.3 million.
The critically panned The Man, a
buddy comedy that throws together
federal agent Samuel L. Jackson and
dental supply salesman Eugene Levy to
solve a murder, opened in sixth place
with $4.0 million.
An Unfnished Life, which stars
Robert Redford, Morgan Freeman and
Jennifer Lopez in the story of a rancher
reluctantly reunited with his estranged
daughter-in-law, opened well in limited
release, with $1.0 million and a per
theater average of $7,264.
Meanwhile, The Constant Garden-
er, starring Ralph Fiennes and Rachel
Weisz and based on a John le Carre
novel, moved to fourth place in its sec-
ond week. The flm took in $4.8 million,
bringing its total to $19.1 million, while
playing on fewer than half the number
of screens given to The Exorcism of
Emily Rose.
Dergarabedian attributed the popu-
larity of The Exorcism of Emily Rose,
to its genre-bending style.
The flms debut marks the third big-
gest September opener, behind Sweet
Home Alabama and the frst Rush
Hour.

A government study on text-
book pricing has left bookstore
directors at the University of Kan-
sas wanting more answers.
A Government
Accountability
Offce (GAO) re-
port has released
results of its
study on college
textbook afford-
ability.
The National
Association of
College Stores
offered a free we-
bcast to provide
information on
the studys fnd-
ings to colleges
across the coun-
try. A forum met at the Kansas
Union to view the cast.
GAO found that, in the last two
decades, textbook prices have in-
creased about 6 percent annually.
The primary reason for the price
increase was bundling, which is
the packaging of textbooks with
additional materials, such as CD-
ROMs. According to NACS, the
use of bundling is increasing be-
cause more instructors are requir-
ing additional materials in their
courses.
Tim Norris, director of KU
bookstores, said he could see the
value in bundling but also had
some doubts.
He said that bundling becomes
a problem when it includes mate-
rial that students
must pay for but
never use.
Norris and
David Mucci, di-
rector of KU Me-
morial Unions,
said they were
disappointed in
the report.
It is a pretty
timid report all
the way around
in my opinion,
Mucci said.
Rick Hale,
professor or
aerospace engineering, attended
the webcast viewing.
He suggested that faculty and
bookstores push for publishers to
use other means of technology to
reduce the need for bundling.
I bet a lot of these supplements
could be transmitted electronically
and we should push the publishers
to do that, Hale said.
Mucci said online-only use of
textbooks in the future was fea-
sible. A move toward digital text-
books would effect royalties for
textbook authors and the ability of
students to actually hold the mate-
rial in their hands.
Norris said the report will prob-
ably not change anything at the
University.
I think this one report would
not change much on campus be-
cause of the limited questions that
it asks unless its used in legisla-
tion, Norris said.
The Kansas Legislature cur-
rently has no pending legislation
involving textbooks.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. Its
been nearly two decades since
there has been a corner to stand
on at 12th and Vine, an intersec-
tion made famous in the song
Kansas City.
That hasnt stopped tourists
from visiting the empty feld east
of downtown to get their pic-
tures taken at the site in an area
that once thrived.
On Sunday, a baby grand pia-
no-shaped piece of land and
a parking lot painted to resem-
ble piano keys were formally
named Goin to Kansas City
Plaza at 12th Street and Vine.
The landscaped park will be-
come a sculpture garden with
trees and fower beds, ornamen-
tal lamps and a 13-foot plaque
that tells the story of 12th Street,
once the citys main drag.
A lot of folk come here and
take pictures, so now they can
take a picture standing at the
new street sign in a nice park,
said Ollie Gates, a Kansas City
barbecue magnate who was
among those who worked for
a decade to create the park. It
also helps create some beauty in
this area. This was a forgotten
area and perceived as undesir-
able. Now look at it.
The area around 12th Street
and Vine was cleared amid ur-
ban renewal efforts in the 1970s,
and the streets were realigned in
1977. The city left a street sign
to note the spots signifcance.
From the 1930s to the 1950s,
places such as the Reno Club,
Orchid Room, Jockey Club
and Boulevard Room thrived,
with jazz luminaries like Count
Basie, Charlie Parker jamming
all night at the local clubs.
Almost every door you went
in had a band, said Myra Taylor,
a singer and dancer who started
working on 12th Street in the
1930s. They had so much to of-
fer. Food, clubs, dancing, all up
and down 12th Street.
A law enforcement crack-
down on liquor in the late thir-
ties hurt business at the clubs,
and live musicians gradually
were replaced with jukeboxes.

tors whove sided with Kline
have said hes also fghting to
preserve their ability to inves-
tigate crime.
The clinics argue the sancti-
ty of patients medical records
is at stake. If Kline prevails,
no ones medical records may
be private, they contend.
But an hours worth of ar-
guments last week before the
Kansas Supreme Court and
the spin surrounding them
only served to emphasize that
abortion is the issue.
Kline is aggressively pursu-
ing the clinics. Eric Rucker, his
chief deputy, told the Su-
preme Court he believes each
record contains evidence of
multiple crimes on their part
which would amount to
several hundred misdemean-
ors and felonies.

Sigma Nu officials would
like to return to campus and
re-establish the fraternity on
campus in the near future,
Beacham said.
Sigma Nu has been a mem-
ber of the Universitys greek

Sigma Nu appreciates
KUs long-standing commit-
ment to building a vibrant

This marks the second time
in six months that a national
organization has revoked the
charter of a local chapter.
Last April, Phi Kappa Theta
had its charter revoked after
the fraternity hosted an unreg-
istered party. The Interfraterni-
ty Council Board later expelled
the chapter from campus.

Discussion
continued from page 1a
Diverse perspectives were
represented, including four uni-
versity students who were part
of an international perspectives
panel. Each of the four was from
a different continent.
The need for security in
their home countries and
American perceptions of for-
eigners were popular topics.
Kengo Terada, Kashiwa,
Japan, senior, said after Sept.
11, Japan realized it may need
to protect itself from another
country or another group out-
side of Japan.
We kind of felt scared
because we didnt have any
experiences protecting our-
selves, Terada said.
Giorgi Burduli, Tbilisi,
Georgia, sophomore, said he
didnt think Americans felt
safe around people from the
Middle East since Sept. 11.
I understand why, but
I dont think its the right
thing, Burduli said. It needs
to be fixed.
Burduli told a story about
was flying to New York City.
When his plane landed, he
turned on his cell phone to
call a friend who was sup-
posed to meet him there.
When he spoke in his native
language, everyone on the
plane looked at him.
They thought I was a terror-
ist, he said. I could see their
scared faces. It was too weird.
Julia Melim Coelho, Rio
de Janeiro, Brazil, junior and
University Daily Kansan col-
umnist, said arriving in the
United States as an interna-
tional student after Sept. 11
made her feel vulnerable.
She said the first time she
came after Sept. 11, it took
three hours to get through
customs.
The frst impression you
have is people asking all sorts
of questions. It feels really in-
vasive, Coelho said. They get
your fngerprints and your pic-
ture, just like getting arrested.
Ifeoluwa Omoniyi, Nige-
ria sophomore, said he is not
against heightened security in-
side the United States because
everyone wants to feel safe.
Portillo said last year only
50 people attended, a number
matched this year by the end
of the first panel.
She said she wants to expand
the project for next year, and
she is looking for volunteers to
help with planning. To be a part
of the committee, send and e-
mail to septproj@ku.edu.

Relatives remember
victims of attacks
By Amy Westfeldt
The AssociATed Press
NEW YORK America
mourned the victims of Sept. 11
on Sunday as the siblings of the
deceased read their loved ones
names to a weeping crowd at
the site where the World Trade
Center once stood.
One by one, the names of
the dead echoed across the site
where the twin towers collapsed
four years ago in a nightmarish
cloud of dust and debris. The
ceremony drew to a close after
four hours, the time it took to
read the 2,749 names.
Relatives in the crowd bowed
their heads and sobbed as speak-
ers uttered brief, personal mes-
sages to the brothers and sisters
they lost, many voices breaking in
sorrow.
Mom and Dad ache for you
every minute, Linda Giammona-
Julian said to her brother, Vincent
Giammona, one of 343 frefght-
ers killed. We love you and we
miss you; til we meet again.
My big sister, my better half,
life will never be the same without
you, Rolando Moreno said to
Yvette Moreno, who worked for
a brokerage in the north tower.
As the names were read,
weeping mourners fled down
a ramp to a refecting memo-
rial pool at the foor of the site,
which remains virtually empty
four years after the attack killed
2,749 people and tore a hole in
the New York skyline. Families
flled the water with red, orange
and yellow roses, some shaking
as they inscribed dedications on
the wooden edge of the pool.
The ceremony came as Hur-
ricane Katrina left Americans
once again struggling with a
catastrophe that caught the na-
tion unprepared and left citizens
dead and grieving.
Mayor Michael Bloomberg
opened with words of condo-
lence for those devastated by Ka-
trina and the terrorist bombings
in the London Underground.
To Americans suffering in the
aftermath of Hurricane Katrina,
our deepest sympathies go out to
you this day, Bloomberg said.
In New Orleans, New York
frefghters helping with the
relief effort gathered around a
makeshift memorial for their
fallen comrades, accepting
the gift of a bell from a nearby
church whose steeple was de-
stroyed in the storm.
Rescue workers in Biloxi,
Miss., took a break from search-
ing for the storms missing to re-
member those who died in the
Sept. 11 attacks. At a special
Mass, parishioners applauded
and thanked two retired New
York City frefghters for their
efforts on the Gulf Coast.
For the local emergency
workers, honoring their New
York comrades while dealing
with their own destruction was
particularly important.
Now we can relate, said
Deputy Biloxi Fire Chief Kirk
Noffsinger.
The ground zero ceremony
paused for moments of silence
at 8:46 a.m., the time at which
a hijacked jetliner crashed into
the north tower, at 9:03 a.m., the
moment a second plane struck
the south tower, at 9:59 a.m.,
when the south tower fell and
at 10:29 a.m., when the second
tower collapsed.
Many relatives looked to the
clear, bright morning sky as they
spoke to the brothers and sisters
they lost. Several held up pho-
tos of their loved ones.

Let me ask you a question:
Who is your hero? And I mean
your real hero, not some ctional
creation you saw a movie about.
During some recent job train-
ing, I was asked this very ques-
tion. After learning that I could
not use Spider-Man as my an-
swer, I found this question sur-
prisingly hard to answer.
Many people in the group an-
swered their parents, which is
an entirely understandable reac-
tion. With rare exception, ones
parents are the most inuential
people during the most forma-
tive years of life.
After my initial impulse to say
my parents as well, I stopped and
thought about my answer. Yes,
my parents have been incredibly
helpful to me, and I would not
be who I am today without them.
But Id like to think my parents
know that, and they are certainly
not the only people who have
done those things for me.
Staying within my family, I
can think of many other people
I would describe as heroes. My
grandfather is a good example.
He is a World War II veteran,
having served a tour of duty in
the Pacic, which continues to
blow my mind. The idea that
someone related to me actually
fought for a cause such as that
inspires me every day and makes
me innitely proud both of my
family and of my country.
During my life, my grandfa-
ther has also been a continual
source of inspiration and advice.
All of my grandparents have al-
ways been proud of me, but he
is the only one who has ever vo-
calized specically why. I have
dozens of memories of sitting
down with him and having him
tell me how talented and gifted I
was, and of him encouraging me
to use my abilities to reach my
goals, no matter how lofty those
goals might have been.
This may sound like a rou-
tine grandparent-grandchild re-
lationship, but to me it is not.
My grandfather is a relatively
humble man, as is most of my
family. To have him to this day
tell me that I am smart, that I can
do anything I want, has been a
direct inuence on me, and is a
primary reason that I am ambi-
tious.
Another person who I could
describe as a hero is a professor
here on campus.
Many people meet faculty
members with whom they devel-
op strong relationships rela-
tionships that help many people
to navigate the countless chal-
lenges of university life and to
obtain a degree.
I met Mary Klayder through
the Honors Program at the uni-
versity, and she quickly became
my de facto resource for help
when it came to advising. She
also accompanied a group of
students and me to London on
a study abroad trip, helping us to
become friends as well.
Mary is a hero to me not be-
cause she has all the answers
(even though she usually does)
but because she legitimately
cares. When a student goes to
her and says they cant nish a
paper because they have fam-
ily issues, shell make time to sit
down with them and talk about
whats going on. Shell happily
slip into any role that you want
her to, be it adviser, teacher, or
simply a friendly face.
Finally, Ive recently realized
that someone can be a hero to
me for a brief amount of time.
I wouldnt describe most of my
friends as my own personal he-
roes, but there are instances
when they can all be heroic.
For example, a good friend
of mine recently returned from
an internship in San Francisco.
From the time she got back, shes
been more than willing to listen
and talk about any issue, and
sympathizes with me even when
it doesnt make sense for her to.
Since shes been back in town
Ive been able to get a lot off of
my chest, and I dont ever feel
shes judged a single word that
has come out of my mouth. This
week, Kates been a hero to me.
The fact is we can all be he-
roes. During that training exer-
cise, almost everyone in the room
mentioned someone they know
as a hero. All of the people who
have been heroes to me have
been individuals with whom Ive
had personal relationships. By
making a difference in my life,
theyve been heroic in my eyes.
In the cynical world we live in,
I think its important to remind
those close to us what they mean
to us. I encourage you to do the
same. To Mom, Dad, Grandpa
Sheehan, Mary and Kate: Youll
always be heroes to me.

Nearly two months have
passed since John Roberts was
first nominated to serve on the
Supreme Court and, by now,
decision makers in Washing-
ton have a pretty good idea of
the type of man they are be-
ing asked to confirm. Despite
this, many are still calling for
long and detailed hearings in
the hope that Mr. Roberts can
be pinned down and made
to look bad enough that his
nomination can be defeated.
Instead of political posturing
and partisan tactics, though,
what needs to happen now is
a quick confirmation of Mr.
Roberts.
It is true that Mr. Roberts
will be stepping into a impor-
tant position if he is indeed
confirmed as the next Chief
Justice, but this is no reason
to delay his confirmation.
One common complaint that
has recently surfaced is that
the next Chief Justice should
be someone with more expe-
rience who is already on the
court. This argument is spe-
cious, though, because the
last three Chief Justices before
William Rehnquist (Burger,
Warren and Vinson) were all
appointed directly to the top
position and did just fine. It
is also absurd to suggest that
Mr. Roberts, who clerked on
the Court for Mr. Rehnquist,
would be so inexperienced as
not to be able to perform his
job.
Despite this complaint and
the outcries from many on
the left about the need to fur-
ther vet Mr. Roberts and ask
him specific questions about
hot-button issues, Mr. Rob-
erts is probably about the
best compromise candidate
there is right now, which only
strengthens the argument that
he should be confirmed as the
next Chief Justice. Sure, he
has a solid track record as a
conservative and has argued
in the past that Roe vs. Wade
should be overturned (the
greatest anathema there is to
the political left), but he also
has moderate views, which no
one seems to be interested in
reporting. For instance, many
conservatives were shocked
to find out that he helped,
pro bono, a gay rights group
to overturn a Colorado state
law. Many may also be inter-
ested to learn that although
he has often argued against
affirmative action, he has
also argued for it in certain
circumstances. And, even
though he has argued against
Roe vs. Wade, he has also re-
cently made comments that
he respects precedent and
that the Roe ruling is settled
law. (For NARAL members
out there, thats conservative
code word for, I wont over-
turn it.)
More importantly than his
views, though, is the fact that
he is extremely well-qualified.
Justice Ruth Bader-Ginsburg,
who has been an ACLU law-
yer and has an obvious pro-
choice position, was con-
firmed to the Supreme Court
nearly unanimously based not
on her views, which were op-
posed by more than the three
senators who voted against
her, but on the fact that she
was extremely well-qualified.
Mr. Roberts is no different.
He has distinguished himself
beginning in college when he
graduated summa cum laude,
through his time as a clerk for
the late Chief Justice William
Rehnquist, until now, as a
judge of the DC Court of Ap-
peals( a post for which he was
confirmed by unanimous con-
sent). He has been given the
American Bar Associations
highest rating of well-quali-
fied and there is absolutely
nothing in his record that
would indicate that he would
do anything less than a spec-
tacular job.
With all of the other prob-
lems that our nation is trying
to come to grips with right
now and another vacancy on
the Court that needs to be
filled, the last thing the coun-
try needs is a drawn out con-
firmation battle about a per-
son who genuinely deserves
to be on the Supreme Court.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

Hey dumb guy at the bar, I gave you the wrong
number. If that isnt an indication of me not being
interested, I dont know what it.

Get well soon, Max Falkenstien.

Hey in Brian Wackers article his roommate Jake

sounds more like a life partner than a roommate.

Gene Roddenberry got his idea for Star Trek from

listening to Bill Braskey talk in his sleep.

Due to the article about the Eiffel Tower, I will never look,
think, feel or talk about it the same way again.

So theres a guy on the 4th floor of the Union playing the music
from Final Fantasy II and thats awesome.

My roommate thought he lost his wallet at a party,

but it was under my bed, because I ripped off his
pants in a fit of passion.

I hate you, Free for All editor. I hate you,

I hate you, I hate you, I hate you.

Listen, I know I messed up. I know I messed up bad, but I miss
you, baby. I need you. Youre the best thing that ever happened
to me, Free for All. Dont leave me! I love you!

I have the strength of a bear that

has the strength of two bears!

I think that the hot dog cart should be there every

week of the- aw, man. Ill call right back.

This is to the guy that said the mayor of New Orleans would be
a racist for not sending the buses. You are an idiot. Those are
two completely different points.

This is to the people in Wescoe who take all day to eat at the
Underground. If you want to do the crossword, go to Anschutz.
The Underground is for eating only.

So lets not make this hurricane thing racial, but if it was a

bunch of white people that got hit by the hurricane, things
would have gotten done a lot faster.

Brian Wacker can write a hell of a news story!

I love you Brian Wacker!

Wait a second. Lew said we were really good fans, but
Reid said we basically sucked, so what are we?

To Laura Watkins, the Buzz has never posed as a punk

station. Theyre an alternative station. You dont deserve
to be a DJ, learn your genres.

If I get hit by the beautiful truck, someone is

going to get hit by the beautiful fist!

If we can spend $90,000 on a new logo, I think we

should build a canal on campus, and have a guy named
Mario row us to class.

I heard Bill Braskey was in Rhombus House.

Im about to drive home drunk because Safe Ride wont

answer my phone. They should divert funds from the
TVs in the rec center and put it in Safe Ride.

Tequila and I are no longer best friends.

Sarah Stacys love of alliteration seems

contagious among all Kansan writers.
With the start of classes comes
the headache of making sure the
tuition bill is paid. But for stu-
dents with grants and loans, their
ability to afford school will be-
come dramatically reduced in the
near future. Recently, lawmakers
proposed the largest cut ever, an
estimated $9 billion, to the fed-
eral student aid programs when
they passed H.R. 609 out of the
House Education Committee.
H.R. 609, cleverly named the
College Access and Opportunity
Act, is anything but an opportu-
nity for students receiving federal
loans. Tuition prices at all Kansas
Institutions of Higher education
increase annually. Unfortunately,
this legislation puts affordable
higher education even further
out of reach for students. This
bill freezes funding for grant pro-
grams, hikes student loan interest
rates, and charges students bigger
up-front fees to borrow.
An article in The Chronicle
of Higher Education states that
lawmakers believe an additional
$2 billion of further cuts when
Congress reconvenes. Currently,
almost 100,000 students will lose
their Pell Grants. Countless oth-
ers will experience signicant
decreases in the face of soaring
tuition prices.
Average student debt in this
country is higher than $17,500.
H.R. 609 will add an additional
$5,800 through fees and inter-
ests rates while simultaneously
cutting the amount students can
receive in nancial support. Ev-
ery student who receives federal
nancial loans will feel the effects
of this legislation.
This legislation also fails to
include a vital piece of legisla-
tion that would signicantly help
students attend higher education
institutions. The Student Aid Re-
ward Act (STAR) or H.R. 1425,
would provide more then $17
billion in student nancial aid
without any burden to tax payers.
In fact, every year the program
would create more revenues that
could be funneled into educa-
tion.
Instead, atrocious cuts in the
higher education budget are go-
ing to pay off the national debt.
As scally unsound as this legisla-
tion is, H.R. 609 is an even worse
education policy. At a time when
tuition rates are soaring, Congress
should be working to send more
students to college rather than
cutting nancial aid budgets.
This is the wrong direction for
our countrys future. Congress is
scheduled to vote on the measure
on September 26th. Log onto
www.house.gov in order to con-
tact your respective legislators.
Let them know that they should
do the right thing for Kansans
and vote against the irresponsible
policies that H.R. 609 proposes.

I am writing in response to
Alaide Vilchis article What in the
World. While I agree that news
coverage of the world in smaller
papers such as the Kansan and the
Lawrence Journal-World is sub-
par, her comparison to Hurricane
Katrina is beyond appalling.
The issues surrounding the New
Orleans disaster are tremendously
vast and complex.
Matters have arisen that have
made the American people ques-
tion the efcacy of their govern-
ment, the Intelligent Design that
would allow such a tragedy to
happen and the things that matter
most (i.e. family).
From the looting, to the manda-
tory evacuations, to the diseased
water pervading the city, New Or-
leans will never be the same.
Ibarra states, Americans seem
to care more about the latest mira-
cle weight loss pill than the 4,000
people in Ukraine potentially dy-
ing because of radioactivity.
I disagree.
As American citizens continue
to outreach to the thousands of
refugees from Mississippi and
Lousiana.
Americans are actually caring
more about each other than any-
one could ever fathom. We may
not be in close proximity to help
the 4,000 people in Ukraine, but
heroes emerge every day to reach
out to the victims of Hurricane
Katrina.
If Ibarra would like better cov-
erage of world events, she should
read the New York Times, not
trivialize a natural disaster that has
deeply distressed the entire coun-
try to its frightening core.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Monday, Sept. 12,
2005: Your creativity comes into play in
whatever area of your life you focus on.
Financially, you might become a mini-expert
in how to handle your funds. You fnd solu-
tions and see no problems, only challenges.
Children could play an important role in your
life. If you are artistic, you could create one
of your best works. Others act up and are
unpredictable. On some level, you fnd this
behavior exciting. If you are single, romance
will knock on your door, perhaps more than
once. Knowing how you want to feel with
this person and the type of relationship you
desire can make all the difference in your
choices. If you are attached, you act like
new lovers again. A surprise could come
along in the form of a new addition, if you
are at that stage of life.
ARIES (March 21-April 19)
HHHH Responsibility, community activity
and/or elder relatives demand your time and
attention. Instinctively, you know what to
do and say. In fact, on some level, you are
on cruise control. You might be surprised
by how your views are changing. Tonight:
Handle only what you must.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20)
HHHHH Your ability to distance yourself
from a situation and take an overview could
be instrumental in solving a problem. Others

delighted with the end results. Tonight:
Be among the crowds.

Naughty by Nature vs. Naughty by Nature
By DaviD Germain
The AssociATed Press
TORONTO More so than
at perhaps any other time in his
career, Steve Martin, 60, has a
flm that showcases his versatil-
ity.
Shopgirl started with Mar-
tins prose, his best-selling no-
vella about a depressive wall-
fower pursued by a rich older
man and an awkward young
slacker. It comes to the theater
via Martins own screenplay ad-
aptation, which turned a highly
internalized tale with minimal
dialogue into a camera-friendly
story.
It also features one of the fn-
er in Martins growing range of
quiet, restrained performances
as he flls the role of the lonely
older man looking for love while
settling for sex with a woman
half his age. And as the produc-
er, Martin helped stitch together
a pitch-perfect cast that includes
Claire Danes as the wallfower
and Jason Schwartzman as the
slacker.
The only thing missing is the
wild-and-crazy physical com-
edy that has been a trademark
of Martins biggest successes,
from The Jerk and All of Me
to Bringing Down the House
and Cheaper By the Dozen.
Dismissed by critics in the
1970s as an anti-intellectual,
banjo-toting buffoon with a fake
arrow through his head, Martin
has undergone a gradual trans-
formation since the mid-1980s
to become an esteemed writer
and performer.

KANSAN SENIOR SPORTS WRITER
Brittany Hills has met Big Jay
numerous times, but she still
gets excited about the thought
of posing for a picture with the
Jayhawks mascot. On Saturday,
Brittany and her sister, Timory,
got more than that.
The Capital One Mascot
Challenge made its second stop
of its 13-week tour at Memo-
rial Stadium on Saturday before
Kansas football game against
Appalachian State. Big Jay was
on hand to meet fans and en-
courage them to vote for him in
the mascot challenge.
Brittany, 11, and Timory, 8,
traveled with their mother all
the way from Sedan, near the
Oklahoma border, just to see
their favorite bird. They left with
pictures of Big Jay, autographed
shirts and smiles on their faces.
Hes cool, Brittany said.
We meet him every time we
come to KU football or volley-
ball games.
The mascot challenge is an
11-week competition where
mascots compete head-to-
head with a different mascot
each week. Fan voting will
determine the winner of the
battle of the beasts. Big Jay
was in a head-to-head com-
petition with Butch T. Cou-
gar, the Washington State
mascot, last week. The results
of that competition will be
announced today. This week,
he will match up with Bruiser
of UCLA.
The six mascots with the most
head-to-head victories during
an 11-week period will advance
to the playoffs, which consist
of three weeks of nose-to-nose
competition between the top
mascots. The winner will receive
$10,000 for the schools mascot
program.
The mascot tour is part of
Capital Ones effort to give the
fans an opportunity to get to
know their favorite mascots,
said Wesley Ward, Capital
Ones event coordinator for
the mascot tour. Each week,
they will visit the home of
one of the mascots on the All-
America team.
Capital One is celebrating
the unsung hero, Ward said.
We are giving the mascots their
day in the sun.
The challenge is also fun for
the school and the fans, said Jim
Marchiony, associate athletics
director.
Former and current Kansas
football players are also get-
ting involved. Curtis McClin-
ton, who played professional-
ly with the Kansas City Chiefs
and was a member of the 1969
Super Bowl Championship
team, joined Big Jay at the
pregame festivities. He signed
autographs, took pictures and
chatted with fans. He said he
voted for Big Jay many times
already and was excited to get
out and encourage fans to do
the same.
I think it is a positive ex-
perience to be able to take
pictures and explain to kids
about my career and my Super
Bowl ring, McClinton said.
I would like fans to reach
out and support the Univer-
sity in this challenge.
Current Kansas linebacker
Kevin Kane said he wasnt quite
as on the ball with voting as Mc-
Clinton, but he said that was
about to change.
I am going to go home and
vote right now, Kane said after
the Jayhawks victory against
Appalachian State.

Cross CoUntry
Women win, men tie
at K-State meet
The Kansas womens cross
country team defeated Kansas
State Friday in a dual meet in
Manhattan at Warner Park. The
mens team tied Kansas State.
Junior runner Dena Seibel
led the womens team, fnishing
third overall, with a time of 19:44
in the 5K race. Seibel led Kansas
to a 20-41 victory.
Sophomore Connie Abbott
made her debut in the dual meet.
She had been held out of the pre-
vious meet because of allergies,
assistant coach Doug Clark said.
For the second consecutive
week, sophomore runner Colby
Wissel fnished frst overall, pac-
ing the mens team. The Jayhawks
tied the Wildcats in the race with
28 points
I thought we did an aver-
age job on Friday, Wissel said.
I think a couple of us were just
a little beat up from Rim Rock
the week before.
Wissel said the frst two rac-
es were to get back into shape
and ready for the season.
We just arent really used
to racing right now, but thats
the purpose of these frst two
meets, Wissel said.
Both the men and the
women will have the week off
to rest and prepare for the Roy
Griak Invitational on Sept. 24
from Minneapolis, Minn.
Antonio Mendoza
with even shots and even corners,
Francis said.
Kansas held the lead for only 12
more minutes before Pepperdine
midfelder Emily Wynne drove in
the frst goal of her career and tied
the match at a goal apiece.
In the 65th minute, Pepperdine
midfelder Kelsey Quane scored
her frst goal of the season, putting
the Waves up 2-1.
From 28 yards out, the shot was
too high for sophomore keeper
Colleen Quinn.
Quinn was replaced by fresh-
man keeper Julie Hanley.
We were actually a little fa-
tigued and we made some mental
mistakes, Francis said.
Gault scored again in the 79th
minute from an assist from senior
forward Caroline Smith.
With less than seven minutes left
in regulation, Pepperdine forward
Megan Woods broke away.
The unassisted score was
Woods second game winning goal
of the season.
They got beat but even though
they were tired, they still found ex-
tra energy, Francis said.
The Kansas victory came from
Fridays 1-0 victory against San Di-
ego, Kansas third shutout.
In a night of frsts, the game
marked the frst Kansas road
match, its frst game under lights
and the frst game-winner by fresh-
man midfelder Missy Geha.
Quinn was there to clear shots
on goal. The Jayhawk keeper col-
lected a career-high seven saves.
Kansas will have its next game

KANSAN SENIOR SPORTSWRITER
After three seasons as Kan-
sas backup quarterback, senior
Brian Luke has reached the top
of the depth chart.
Luke started Saturdays con-
test against Appalachian State
and took advantage of the op-
portunity. Luke completed 17
of 26 passes for more than 200
yards. He also pounded out a
one-yard touchdown run.
Luke said he practiced with
the frst string last week and as-
sumed he would be the starting
quarterback. He said although it
took a long time to become the
starter, it was worth the wait.
This is what I have been
working for my entire fve years
here, Luke said. It feels good
to be out there starting.
After the game, Kansas foot-
ball coach Mark Mangino said
he expected Luke to be the
starter for next weeks game
against Louisiana Tech.
Unless there is something that
really shocks me while I watch
tape tomorrow morning, I sus-
pect he will be the starter for the
La. Tech game, Mangino said.
Mangino said the mistakes
that Luke made could be cor-
rected. Luke threw an intercep-
tion deep inside Appalachian
State territory at the end of the
frst half.
He had one bad series that
he fell out of sync for whatever
reason, Mangino said. Out-
side of that, I thought he man-
aged the game well.
Junior quarterback Adam
Barmann saw limited action as
his one pass attempt fell short.
Freshman Marcus Herford,
who took a redshirt last season,
saw unexpected time at the quar-
terback position Saturday night.
Herford was recruited as a
quarterback, but switched posi-
tions to wide receiver before the
season. After not playing in the
frst game, Herford entered Sat-
urdays game in the third quar-
ter as a quarterback. He fnished
the night running for 42 yards
on fve carries. He also complet-
ed two passes for 16 yards.
Marcus is a really good ath-
lete, and we just feel like he can
bring us a little spark, Mangino
said. He can run the ball ex-
tremely well, and manage the
game when he has to.
Mangino said Herford would
continue to see playing time at
the quarterback position, but
would also see playing time at
wide receiver when the time is
right.
Herford will be a situational
quarterback for now, which
means Mangino will only play
him when he thinks the time is
right in the game.

Senior Brian Luke drops back to pass for a portion of his 212 passing yards for the game. Kansas defeated Appala-
chian State 36-8 Saturday at Memorial Stadium.
Loudest applause during
player introductions:
Brian Luke takes home
the prize. Hes defnitely
the quarterback of choice
for Kansas fans.
Best sign: Cool Hand
Luke
Cheers to Charles Gordon:
Fans have been expect-
ing Gordon to bust loose
on a punt return and they
got their wish twice on
Saturday. His frst crowd-
pleaser got called back,
but Gordon was able to
show off his nifty moves
again in the third quarter.
Gordon is indeed the fan
favorite.
Cheers to Jon Cornish:
Those who stuck
around for his 58-yard
run in the fourth quarter
loved what they saw. If he
keeps delivering high-
light-reel runs, he might
push Gordon for big man
on campus. He needs to
watch the fve yard line.
Cheers also to jean skirts:
Defnitely appropriate
apparel on game day.
Jeers to the dudes who
sported the jean shorts
and Appalachian State
T-shirts. Good try, but any-
one who caught a glimpse
saw a little more than they
would have liked to see.

Kellis: I told myself, before
the year started, that Id
smoke a cigar after every
Kansas victory, but I dont
know if I will after defeating
Appalachian State.
Travis: Well, did you smoke
one last week?
Kellis: Yes.
Travis: Whats the difference
then? Both games were sup-
posed to be easy victories.
Kellis: Last week was the
rst game of the season and
it was at least against a Divi-
sion I team.
Travis: Im a little worried
about next week though.
Our offense still doesnt look
that good.
Kellis: Louisiana Tech got
killed at Florida.
Travis: Kansas is a lot differ-
ent from Florida.
Kellis: Im a little surprised
that freshman Marcus Her-
ford played at quarterback
in front of junior Adam Bar-
mann.
Travis: Herford looked good.
I think he was put in there
because Kansas was playing
Appalachian State and the
coaches wanted to see what
he could do.
Kellis: Barmann was the
undisputed starter two
weeks ago. Now, a guy
who wasnt even listed
on the depth chart is the
backup?
Travis: Not necessarily. If
Luke got hurt do you really
think the coaching staff would
put Herford, a freshman who
doesnt know the system yet,
in the game? I think they
were just testing him.
Kellis: Barmann only
played one series and threw
one pass. If Kansas foot-
ball coach Mark Mangino
was interested in him being
the backup, he would have
played the whole second
half.
Travis: Regardless, Her-
ford looked solid and made
plays.
Kellis: Hes denitely a
good change of pace, but
opposing teams will know
that Kansas is going to run
the ball every time he gets in
the game.
Travis: I dont know about
that. Herford completed
more passes than Barmann.
Kellis: But when Barmann
was at quarterback, he led
the Jayhawks to a touch-
down.
Travis: All he did was hand
the ball off to junior run-
ning back Jon Cornish, who
gained every yard. I could
have played quarterback on
that drive.

The Kansas volleyball team
wrapped up the non-confer-
ence portion of its schedule by
winning the Pizza Hut Jayhawk
Invitational in decisive fashion
this weekend.
The Jayhawks improved to
8-1 with the perfect weekend.
Kansas will begin Big 12 Confer-
ence play this Wednesday when
it plays host to Texas A&M.
Kansas started the tourna-
ment by beating Virginia Com-
monwealth in three games on
Friday afternoon.
The match proved to be the
closest of the three Kansas
matches during the weekend.
The Jayhawks took the games
30-28, 30-26 and 30-26.
Senior outside hitter Paula
Caten led the Jayhawks with 19
kills on a .708 attack percent-
age.
The Jayhawks as a team were
also effcient, hitting .257. Se-
nior middle blocker Josi Lima
added 13 digs.
Kansas returned Friday night
to sweep Michigan State.
The Jayhawks dominated the
Spartans in the frst two games
before picking up a victory in an
epic third frame.
Michigan State held leads of
29-28 and 30-29 before Kansas
came back to win.
Junior libero/defensive spe-
cialist Jamie Mathewson served
the Jayhawks to the fnal three
points of their 32-30 victory.
Lima led the Jayhawks with
13 kills. Caten added 10.
Kansas volleyball coach Ray
Bechard was pleased with the way
the Jayhawks played the Spar-
tans, a Big 10 team that presented
a similar look to what Kansas
would see in conference play.
Lima said the team played
well despite being tired after a
long day of action.
Its really hard, Lima said.
You play once and your body is
really tired. But we had to do it.
The crowd at the Hore-
jsi Family Athletics Center was
raucous.
Kansas sophomore opposite
hitter Emily Brown was appre-
ciative of the support and said it
played a big part in the victory.
Our fans are great, she
said. Thats the best feeling in
the world. We love to play at
home.
On Saturday, the Jayhawks
wrapped up the tournament
championship against Temple.
Kansas was dominant in re-
cording its fourth straight sweep.
The Owls posted a .088 at-
tack percentage and committed
10 service errors against just
three aces.
Kansas had three players in
double fgures in kills. In ad-
dition, Mathewson, Lima and
Caten each recorded 10 or more
digs.
The Jayhawks served well, post-
ing nine aces against 11 errors.
Bechard described the effort
as workmanlike.
I think the trick with athlet-
ics at any level is how you re-
spond after an emotional effort
the night before, he said. It
was effective and productive.
He said he thought the non-
conference schedule was tough
enough to prepare the Jayhawks
for their conference-opening tilt
with Texas A&M on Wednes-
day.
Its earlier than any other
conference in the country,
Bechard said. Texas A&M will
be a very experienced top 15,
top 20 type of team.
Junior outside hitter Jana Cor-
rea said she thought the team
would correct any problems it
will have as it goes through the
tough conference schedule.
I think we are ready to play,
but it will be pretty hard, Cor-
rea said. The competition will
make us a better team.

Kansas rushing attack would
not be denied Saturday night.
Kansas backs ran for 207
yards and four touchdowns in
a 36-8 victory against Appala-
chian State Saturday night at
Memorial Stadium.
Junior running back Jon Cor-
nish led the charge and rushed
for 104 yards on 10 carries. Cor-
nish scored three times on the
night.
His three touchdowns are the
most rushing touchdowns in a
game since Bill Whittemore rushed
for three against Tulsa in 2002.
Jon is a talented young guy
and slowly but surely he is putting
his game together, Mangino said.
He is pretty close to becoming a
complete player, which is some-
thing we need him to be.
Cornishs longest run of the
night came in the fourth quar-
ter when he scampered 58 yards
down the feld, only to trip over
his own feet at the fve-yard line.
Cornish capped off the drive
with his third touchdown of the
evening.
The drive put the Jayhawks up
33-8. Cornish accumulated all 75
of the drives yards.
Kansas found the endzone on
the ground twice more for a total
of fve trips. Senior running back
Clark Green and senior quar-
terback Brian Luke each had a
rushing touchdowns as well.
Green rushed for 55 yards on
15 carries.
Mangino said he liked the
way Cornish ran the ball, but he
needed to improve the other ar-
eas of being a running back.
Its all the other aspects of his
game that he really has to stay on
top of: his pass protection, his
ability to block in the run game
itself, Mangino said.
The crowd of 37,070 also saw
a successful passing attack.
Luke was 17-for-26 through
the air for 212 yards. Kansas
racked up 228 yards passing
overall.
The offense gathered 435 yards
of total offense.
Mangino said before the game
that a team made its most prog-
ress from the frst game to the
second.
I think the offense is start-
ing to come together a little bit,
Mangino said after the game. I
thought our passing game was
much improved over last week in
terms of running routes and get-
ting the ball where they should
be.
Luke started 4-for-5 for 86
yards in the frst quarter, high-
lighted by a 59-yard pass to ju-
nior wide receiver Brian Murph
as the quarter wound down.
The pass set up the frst score
of the game a Green four-yard
touchdown run.
After the game, Mangino said
barring anything drastic on the
tape of the game Luke would
be the teams starting quarter-
back against Louisiana Tech next
week.
Other than the pick that he
threw down there before the half
where he under threw the post, I
thought he managed the game pret-
ty well. Mangino said. I thought
he made some good throws. I
thought he did a good job check-
ing. I am pleased overall.
Luke, freshman Marcus Her-
ford and junior Adam Barmann
all took snaps at quarterback.
Herford entered the game with
5:44 remaining in the third quar-
ter. He rushed 18-yards on his
frst two plays. Herford played
just three snaps before
Luke returned. Herford fnished
the contest with 42 yards on fve
carries.
Barmann entered on the Jay-
hawks frst drive of the fourth
quarter and went 0-for-1.
Senior linebacker Nick Reid
led the Jayhawks with 14 tack-
les and senior linebacker Banks
Floodman forced a fumble on
the Mountaineers frst series
of the game. Appalachian State
marched down the feld before
Floodman caused the fumble
along the goal line.

Football Notes:
F Scott Webbs missed feld
goal in the second quarter was
the frst miss of his career. Be-
fore the miss, he was a perfect
31-31.
F On the season, Cornish has
just 14 carries but has accumu-
lated 149 yards and four touch-
downs.
No stopping rushing attack

The Kansas defense came
up with points for the Kansas
soccer team yesterday, but not
enough to take out the 3-2 vic-
tors, No. 15 Pepperdine.
Senior defender Holly Gault
scored two goals for the Jay-
hawks in the loss.
Still undefeated, the Waves
(5-0-0) proved they could pass
the test the Jayhawks (3-2-1)
handed them, using their pow-
erful and well-rested offense.
Kansas beat San Diego on Fri-
day night before its loss to Pep-
perdine. The Waves only played
the Jayhawks in the invitational.
Pepperdine was supposed to
play Tulane in its frst game, but
the aftermath of Hurricane Ka-
trina canceled the match up.
They didnt play Friday,
which made them a little fresher
and it made a little bit of differ-
ence in the end of the game,
Kansas coach Mark Francis
said.
Kansas struck frst yesterday
on a well-placed corner kick
from freshman forward Jessica
Bush in the 25th minute of play.
Using her head rather than her
foot, Gault knocked the ball
past Pepperdine goalkeeper Ana
Picarelli.
It was a very good game,
