A memorial service was held for former University Communications director Lynn Bretz, who passed away May 27 at the age of 62 after Bretz a battle with cancer. The ceremony took place on June 1 at Plymouth Congregational Church in Lawrence. A 1971 graduate from KU, Bretz oversaw the Universitys public affairs and media relations until 2011, was director of the Office of University Relations in 2002

and worked as arts editor for the Lawrence Journal-World prior to her time at KU. Bretz held a masters degree in journalism from KU and a masters degree in English from the University of Denver. Chancellor Bernadette GrayLittle offered her condolences and praised Bretz for her role at KU. She was a tireless advocate for KU, always working to make our university a better place, Gray-Little said in a news release issued by the University. Lynn was a trusted adviser, dedicated mentor and caring friend to so many, and I offer my deepest sympathies to her family and friends. Bretz was inducted into the KU Womens Hall of Fame in 2011.

Fatal shooting in busy Toronto mall


tORONtO A gunman fired shots in a crowded food court in one of Canadas busiest malls saturday killing a man and injuring seven others, police said. police Chief Bill Blair said the shooting at Eaton Centre in downtown toronto targeted one individual and there were a number of innocent bystanders. police constable Victor Kwong said two people were in critical condition after being shot at the Eaton Centre in downtown toronto, including a 13-year old boy. the 25-yearold man who was killed died at the scene, he said. Kwong said six people were shot in all, including the deceased. two people were trampled on and pushed, including a pregnant woman who went into labor after she was pushed, he said. Blair said investigators have a description of the suspect. A lot of innocent people were hurt and a lot of innocent people were put at risk, Blair said. We will be relentless in our pursuit of the individual. Witnesses said multiple shots were fired in the malls food court and that hundreds of panicked shoppers sprinted for the exits. the mall, which is popular with tourists, was evacuated. Any place for discharging a firearm in toronto is dangerous, Blair said. In the food court of the Eaton Centre on a saturday evening, its not only dangerous, its outrageous. I believe every torontonian is shocked and appalled by this crime. toronto prides itself on being one of the safest cities in North America. Many Canadians have long taken comfort in the peacefulness of their communities and are nervous about anything that might indicate they are moving closer to their American counterparts. Kwong said police are in the process of reviewing security tapes. He said they had concluded a search of the mall. AssoCIAtED pREss

Plane crashes, leaving no survivors


LAgOS, Nigeria A passenger plane carrying more than 150 people crashed in Nigerias largest city on sunday, killing all passengers and crew aboard, an emergency official said. Nigerias Civil Aviation Authority Harold Demuren said that all aboard sundays Dana Air flight had died. He did not say how many were on the flight. the lagos state government said in a statement that 153 people were on the flight going from Abuja to lagos. the plane first crashed through a furniture shop and then into residential buildings next to the workshop in this densely packed neighborhood. the nose of the plane was embedded into the three-story apartment building, damaging only one part of the structure. At the crash site, an Associated press reporter saw parts of the planes seat signs scattered around. Firefighters tried to put out the smoldering flames of a jet engine and carried at least one corpse from the

CAIRO Egypts top prosecutor is appealing the verdicts in the trial of Egypts ousted president and others, acquitting Hosni Mubarak and his two sons on corruption charges and clearing senior police officers of complicity in killing protesters, an official said on sunday. Under Egyptian law, the prosecutor must appeal the entire verdict, which also included convictions and life sentences for Mubarak and his former security chief. tens of thousands took to the streets in Cairo and elsewhere in Egypt to protest the verdict. the demonstrations also touched on the runoff election this month for a president to replace Mubarak, pitting Muslim Brotherhood candidate Mohammed Morsi against Ahmed shafiq, who was Mubaraks last prime minister.

Target struggles to please consumers


ST. PAUL, Minn. Two years after Target Corp. angered gay marriage supporters with a political donation that benefited a fiery gay marriage opponent seeking the governors office, the retailer is now upsetting same-sex marriage opponents by selling T-shirts to

raise money for a group working to defeat a gay marriage ban in Minnesota. Target is attacking traditional marriage, which is an incredibly misguided thing for them to have done, said Chuck Darrell, spokesman for Minnesota for Marriage, a group campaigning to pass the constitutional marriage amendment. Family Equality Council director Jennifer Chrisler said the T-shirt proceeds will fund her groups

work around the country, ranging from community building to political advocacy. I know and understand what a big reaction that donation had two years ago, and I think they have taken steps, serious steps, to show that they understood that reaction, Chrisler said. But I really think this is an extension of the longtime partnership we have had and their commitment to family. Associated Press

CRIME

Body of missing former student found Thursday


The body of Yelekal Kal Alemu, a 23-year-old former University student who went missing, was found May 31 in the area south of the Wakarusa River where his abandoned

car was found several weeks ago. Sergeant Steve Lewis, spokesperson for the Douglas County Sheriffs Office, confirmed the information today. No foul play is suspected, although it was not a natural cause of death, Lewis said. Police were doing a follow up investigation in the wooded area when they discovered Alemus

body. The area was also checked immediately after his disappearance, but no body was found. Alemu was reported missing on May 12 after he failed to show up for important family gatherings. An official cause of death will be released following a coroners investigation. Kelsey Cipolla

strong box office for new snow White


MCCLATCHY TRIBUNE
LOS ANGELES There probably will be a happily-ever-after ending for Snow White and the Huntsman at the box office this weekend. The adaptation of the classic fairytale the second take on Snow White to hit theaters this year is expected to open with a solid sum of $40 million to $45 million, according to those who have seen pre-release audience surveys. The studio behind the film, Universal Pictures, is projecting a softer opening of between $30 million and $35 million. Either way, the movie should open with far more than Marchs Mirror Mirror, Relativity Medias more comedic spin on Snow White starring Lily Collins and Julia Roberts, which launched with a weak $18 million domestically and ultimately collected $62 million. However, Mirror Mirror had a budget of around $100 million, while Snow White cost Universal $170 million to produce. Starring Kristen Stewart, Charlize Theron and Chris Hemsworth, Snow White has so far earned middling UNIvERSAL PICTURES reviews; on Thursday, the film had a this film image released by universal 52 percent fresh rating on Rotten To- pictures shows Chris Hemsworth, kristen matoes. stewart and director rupert sanders.

Lil Wayne upset over Thunder ticket denial

LOS ANGELES Lil Wayne said that after a recent NBA playoffs ticket dispute he felt unwelcome and unwanted at the Oklahoma City arena and isnt planning to return. The rapper said two Thunder players Kevin Durant and James Harden had reached out to offer him tickets to Saturdays fourth game of the Western Conference Finals. Thats not the point, though, he told The Associated Press in an interview Friday night. Its the players stepping up but of course the players arent white. I dont want to be sitting there on behalf of you and Im sitting next to a (person) thats like I dont want this (guy) sitting next to

me. (Forget) you ... Im in Forbes, he said, laughing. Lil Wayne claimed in a tweet Thursday night that he had been denied by the team to be in their arena. The team responded by saying the seats he wanted were already taken. Lil Wayne said a manager had advised him not to return to the citys arena for sports events or concerts, but I never say never. He said he felt welcome at other arenas including Miami, and likes being able to energize players many of whom are fans of his music on their home court. A team spokesman has said Lil Waynes representatives insisted that he sit in the front row, and none of those seats were available.

RALEIGH, N.C. John Edwards mistress Rielle Hunter is publishing a memoir about her relationship with the former presidential candidate and their daughter. Jennifer Canzoneri, marketing manager at Dallas-based BenBella Books, says What Really Happened is set to be released on June 26. Edwards and Hunter had an affair while the Democrat was running for the White House in 2008 and have

a daughter together, Frances Quinn Hunter. On Thursday, a jury acquitted Edwards on one count of illegally accepting campaign contributions and deadlocked on five other charges. He had been accused of orchestrating a plan to use money from campaign donors to hide Hunter while he ran for the White House. His relationship with Hunter currently remains unclear.

Men in Black 3 censored in China


MCCLAtChY tRIBUNE
LOS ANGELES Men in Black 3 is the latest film to face the wrath of Chinese censors. At least three minutes of Sonys sci-fi comedy have been excised for its Chinese theatrical run, according to a person with knowledge of the matter who was not authorized to speak about it publicly. The offending moments take place in New Yorks Chinatown. They include a Chinese-restaurant shootout between evil aliens and Will Smiths Agent J and Tommy Lee Jones Agent K the aliens are disguised as restaurant workers as well as a moment when Smiths J neuralyzes, or memory-wipes, a group of Chinese bystanders. A Chinese paper, the China Southern Daily, speculated that the latter scene may have been cut because it could be viewed as a comment on Chinas censorship of the Internet. The news was first reported in the English-language press by Britains Daily Telegraph, which pegged the total time of the cuts at 13 minutes. MIB 3 opened to more than $21 million in China last weekend, by far the largest total of any of the more than 50 foreign territories in which the movie bowed. Chinese law limits the number of Hollywood movies that can be shown in its theaters, prompting studios to be unusually careful about any China-related content they include in their films.

Anti-abortion bill lacks sense


H
eres a joke: Rep. Lance Kinzer says he is standing up for conservative, traditional values. Are you laughing yet? Me neither. Last month while campus was cramming for May finals, Kinzer was busy trying to legislate science under the guise of conservative, traditional values. Kinzer authored a bill aimed at preventing abortions, which was strongly opposed by fellow pro-life Republicans Rep. Barbara Bollier. While much of HB 2598, and later SB 313, was distasteful and shortsighted, portions of it were irresponsible, irrational and downright dangerous. The bill would force doctors to tell patients that abortions cause cancer. According to the National Cancer Institute, that bold claim is absolutely not true. Senate President Steve Morris argued it could jeopardize the University of Kansas pursuit of a comprehensive cancer center designation from the NCI, which would allow the continuation and expansion of critical research. Kinzer preaches

about the importance of job creation and strong economies, but at the same time he risks the stability afforded to the state by the University in the form of jobs, research, and spending. The bill doesnt just risk an NCI designation (something supported by officials across the state and both of our Republican U.S. senators), it could also risk the accreditation of the University of Kansas Medical Center, because it may prevent residents in obstetrics programs from learning the subtelties of induced abortions and the necessary procedures to protect the health of the mother. Residents in these programs currently gain that knowledge outside

of Kansas but that process would be ended in 2013. But most sickening is that Kinzers bill protects doctors and medical personnel from lawsuits should they decide to withhold health and medical information from a patient because it may lead that patient to consider an abortion. It appears that Kinzer doesnt believe women have the right to know what is going on in their bodies. Instead, he believes that a doctor has the right to examine you, analyze you, and then withhold that information from you because he doesnt trust you to do the right thing. Kinzer wants to get rid of abortion, but he hasnt just targeted women seeking abortions. He has put at risk any woman who pursues pregnancy. Even married and financially stable prospective mothers who follow traditional, conservative values would feel the effects. This bill would allow a doctor to withhold information about an unborn childs fatal disease because the information could lead to an abortion. No mother should have to give birth and watch her child die

days later, or be denied the chance to emotionally and financially prepare to raise a child with a known, severe disability. I resent Kinzer and his supporters in Topeka parading as traditional conservatives. I was raised in a traditional, conservative household by proud Republicans, who believe in the sanctity of life and in respect for people. They believe in honesty and in transparency. The traditional conservatives I know dont support doctors lying. They dont support doctors playing games with the health of women. They believe that the United States is long past the days of male doctors protecting female patients from big words and scary diagnoses. And while they are staunchly, fiercely, vehemently pro-life, they dont support taking away the rights of one group in order to elevate the status of another.

sharing your crisis can help you cope H


ave you ever gone through a situation you dont think anyone can possibly understand? Feeling alone isnt uncommon. Ive been there. Its tough. Whats even more tough is when feeling alone goes so far as to become destructive. Suicide is the third leading cause of death for 19 to 24 year olds and the age range where the majority of suicides are committed according to the National Institute of Mental Health. You may think that you are one in a million, but that still means that there are 7,000 of you on Earth. You arent alone!

and, as the song Lean On Me goes, We all need somebody to lean on. Someone, somewhere is always there for you, you just need to know where to look. For some people, a best friend is sufficient. Theyll listen to all of your problems and help you find a plausible solution or a good distraction. For others, a parent, sibling or other family member plays the role of

a confidant. Everybody has their own style to cope with certain situations, but sometimes its not so simple. Weve seen the stories play out in movies, read them in books or maybe lived through them where someone tries to commit suicide, is sexually abused, bullied or has a disorder but their friends dont know what to do. In situations that could be dangerous or life threatening, who do you turn to? Kansas has a series of crisis hotlines that cover nearly every topic one could imagine. To name a few, there are suicidehotlines.com/kansas. html, overcomeyoured.tripod.com/ id16.htm, and www.kcsdv.org/ksresources.html. To find hotlines for other disorders or other states, Google: your state, the problem, hotlines.

By reaching out and talking to someone who specializes in your type of problem yet keeps your identity confidential, you can truly open up and feel listened to. Most such centers are manned by volunteers. Dont hesitate and dont feel like your problem isnt important enough or that you arent important enough. You are important, and thats exactly why Im writing this today. Your life and well-being is worth so much more than what a small column by an unknown writer can express. Open up to those resources that can help you make it through those tough situations unscathed. Hawkins is a sophomore in journalism from Scranton, Kan.

Weed out-smokes other drugs in Kansas


VIRAJ AMIN
vamin@kansan.com Editors Note: Names of people interviewed in this story have been changed to protect their identities. Marijuana continues to be the most used illegal drug in the country and in Kansas. Douglas County is ranked in the top five counties in Kansas for possession of marijuana arrests, according to drugscience.org. In 2009, over 3,200 pounds of marijuana were seized in the state, compared to 220 pounds of cocaine, the second most used illegal drug. Hunter, a senior from Kansas City, Mo., sells marijuana all year. He knows a few people who have been arrested for possession of marijuana but believes there are ways to avoid getting caught. There is always a risk when you are dealing, but what I try to do is keep a low profile and not get outside my comfort zone, Hunter said. Trust is extremely important for Hunter when dealing with customers. The only people I deal to are friends, Hunter said. And the only new people I sell to have a connection to one of my friends. The people I know who have been arrested for possession usually do something dumb to get caught, like smoke in a car on a busy street. Hunter, who buys 1 or 2 pounds at a time, said his business usually goes up in the summer because of the lack of competition. There is a lot more down time for students, and I have a pretty good client base so Im usually pretty busy in the summer, Hunter said. This is pretty much my second job, and it helps me pay for bills and food so I dont have to take out as many loans. Jake, a senior from Overland Park who smokes occasionally, said it isnt difficult to find marijuana whenever he wants to smoke. Finding weed in Lawrence is pretty easy, especially after making a couple connections, Jake said. I live in the student ghetto and I know a couple different people within a few blocks of my house that I can go to who sell weed. However, Jake says it does become a little more difficult to find marijuana in the summer when the student population decreases significantly. The main guy I buy from is originally from California, and thats where he gets the bulk of his weed, Jake said. He went back this summer. So did a couple of other dealers I know, so I have to go through people I dont know JESSICA JANASz/KANSAN too well. for dealers selling weed in the summer, its easy to keep a steady income without much Edited by Kelsey Cipolla competition, while buyers lose their connections to dealers who leave for the summer.

Summer calls for more beer variety, new blends


KELSEA ECKENROth
keckenroth@kansan.com Summer is the time for outdoor activities like camping, swimming, taking weekend trips to the lake, and going to parties. The summer heat can leave someone thirsty for something refreshing and delicious. Summer is beer season. Beer drinking and summer activities go hand in hand. Matt Easley, the general manager of On the Rocks, a liquor store at 1818 Massachusetts St., said beer is most popular during the summer, and summer offers the biggest seasonal beer selection. Summer beers are usually lighter and usually lower in alcohol content so people can drink more of them, Easley said. Lighter beers, wheat beers, fruit ales and summer beers like Leinenkugels Summer Shandy sell well during the summer. Dan Dutcher, a fifth-year senior from Wichita, said his favorite summer beer is Samuel Adams Summer Ale, which, according to the Samuel Adams website, is a wheat ale made with malted wheat, lemon peel, and a rare pepper from Africa called Grains JESSICA JANASz/KANSAN of Paradise. Wheat beers are the right kind of a variety of light and flavorful beers are popular for students during summer because theyre easy to drink and have low alcohol beer to be drinking when you are sitcontent. favorites include Leinenkugels Summer Shandy and Blue Moons Summer Honey Wheat. ting around a campfire or something, Dutcher said. It just feels right. Blake Tillman, a fifth-year senior from McPherson, said he is always open to trying new beers and enjoys going to 23rd Street Brewery, a local restaurant and brewery at 3512 Clinton Parkway, to try whatever seasonal beers the brewery has on tap. I like the Bartertown Brown at 23rd Street Brewery, Tillman said. Im just trying to taste new things and not be hesitant to try a new beer. People are very tuned into and interested in seasonal offerings, and local breweries are keeping up with the publics interest. The Free State Brewing Company, 636 Massachusetts St., is coming out with a summer beer called Stormchaser Summer IPA. Free State owner Chuck Magerl said Stormchaser is already bottled and is in stores, as of June 1. Magerl said Stormchaser is golden colored with a citrus flavor to it and that the beer is a great summer beverage. We had two versions of Storm Chaser and served them both downtown, Magerl said, then took the best characters of both and combined them into the beer that is in the bottles. Edited by Megan Hinman

Farmers Market moves, stays popular


JESSIcA tIERNEY
jtierney@kansan.com
The new location of the Westside Farmers Market is attracting both old and new customers. After a recent and unexpected removal from its original location, the Westside Lawrence Farmers Market has a new home at Emprise Bank, 1121 Wakarusa Drive. This is just a few blocks south of its original location at the corner of Sixth Street and Wakarusa Drive. Thanks to some quick action by members of the community and market leaders, the Westside Market was without a home for only a few days. Business has actually been better since the move, said Nicholas Kotlinksi, assistant coordinator for the Lawrence Farmers Market. The bank has helped us a lot. The Westside Market started three years ago as part of an expansion project of the Lawrence Farmers Market. Its primary locations are in downtown Lawrence, one on Tuesday nights on Vermont Street and another on Saturday mornings on New Hampshire Street. They thought they could get a new market going and wanted to appeal to new clientele in west Lawrence, Kotlinksi said. The market ran into some trouble, however, when the tenants of the shopping center where it began voted to remove the Thursday market from the parking lot and reserve that space for their customers and their vehicles. In the same shopping center occupied by the Salty Iguana, businesses such as Morningstars Pizza and Grinders recently opened shop. According to representatives of Concord Hospitality Services, the shopping centers owner, this created a conflict, which was eventually resolved by the vote to remove the Lawrence Farmers Market. Kotlinski said leaders of the market were flooded with offers for alternative locations. Pam Bramlett, market coordinator, made the decision that the larger amount of space at Emprise Bank would allow for more expansion and the grass would be cooler for the vendors, as opposed to the pavement of the previous location. The vendors agree. On a recent Thursday evening, a mixture of families, students, and young professionals perused the wares, purchasing everything from ice cream from Ewig Family Dairy to freshly picked herbs and homemade quiche from Marilyn Pilkey and her Little Woods Bake Shop. I think this will be a great location, Pilkey said. The bank people have been really nice. They brought us water. The closer proximity of the street and the surrounding neighborhoods is also an advantage. I think that this one is going to be better, said Katie Wohletz, a representative from one of the vendors, Wohletz Farm Fresh. We have better visibility than before. The Westside Market will be held every Thursday evening from 4-6 p.m. until the end of October.

Summer School

Students branch out with quirky classes


DYLAN DERRYbERRY
dderryberry@kansan.com The University offers a variety of courses over the summer that give students the chance to experiment in something new, including bowling, singing lessons, physical conditioning and many more. Summer offers students a chance to take classes they may not usually have time for, according to Roberta Schwartz, associate professor of music who teaches History of Rock and Roll. I think summers are a great time to take optional courses that its maybe tough to schedule during the semester, Schwartz said. Probably the best incentive, and it probably has to do with the lower class size: Grades in the summer session are always better. Schwartzs class discusses the role of music in society and the differences in various genres, and gives students the ability to thoughtfully examine all music in a professional way. Luke Samuel, lecturer of design, teaches Fundamentals of Photography and says that summer courses dont have to be particular to a students major and can be beneficial to anyone. I seriously believe that when you do things that are outside your area, it stretches your brain a little bit of a different way, Samuel said. I tell kids all the time to take photography, take drawing, that in a sense its good for you. Samuels course discusses basic camera operation as well as film and digital production. Samuel says the concentrated time and the smaller classes of summer terms are fun and that he is excited for the course to begin. For film student Lukas Renard, a senior from Wichita, summer courses have helped him acquire quick credits. Having his film class everyday helps him understand the information, and its an enjoyable time. I like summer courses because of how often we attend them. Its easier to retain the material than during the semester when we only meet once a week, Renard said. Im in Classical Theory this summer, and we get to watch a different movie each day. Whether students take a required course or try something new, Schwartz says students need to keep the brain active between semesters. Keeping in the groove, becoming accustomed to the fact that youre going to be in that routine certainly makes it easier when August rolls around, Schwartz said. Edited by Megan Hinman

Summer classes begin Tuesday, June 5. Here are some other dates to keep in mind during the summer term: If enrolling late, students have until June 11 to enroll online. Monday, June 18 is the last day to add or swap a class and Tuesday, July 17 is the last day to drop or completely withdraw from summer courses. There will be no classes on July 4, in honor of Independence Day. The last day for all summer courses is Friday, July 27.

Ambler, parks provide workout services


ANNA ALLEN
aallen@kansan.com Some students prefer to do it in the early morning. Others like to do it at the end of a busy day. Some like to keep it hot, and some enjoy to use it as a time to cool off. Whatever way you choose to workout, Lawrence during the summer has plenty of options for you to choose from. For student Ashlee Baraban, a junior from Topeka, the Ambler Student Rec Center is the first place she goes when working out. In fact, its where she usually goes to start her day three to four days a week. It keeps me calm, helps me get things done throughout the day, Baraban said about getting in an early workout. The rec offers classes like yoga to help with just that; managing stress. But it also offers a variety of other resources to help your workouts. Basketballs and racquets are definitely checked out the most, said John Bertels, a sophomore from Overland Park, who works behind the recs checkout counter. Bertels said some of the less checked out equipment included croquet and TRZ, but said its probably because of peoples lack of familiarity with the two. Additionally, canoes, tents, bikes and other outdoor gear can be rented from the rec for different amounts of time, an hour to a weekend, Bertels said. But some students turn to the rec for more than entertainment and reducing stress. Cedric Burrows, a May doctoral graduate from Memphis, said he started getting serious about his health after turning thirty. He said he realized the importance of staying fit after looking at his familys health history and knowing that fitness was the way to combat against possible health problems. He tries to get to the rec at least three times a week, but enjoys hiking the various trails Lawrence has, as well. And when the rec is closed, what then? As Burrows pointed out, Lawrence has a wide variety of hiking trails. A list of these can be found on the Lawrence Parks and Recreation website, with additional options for classes and intramural teams to participate with the entire Lawrence community. And, of course, if youre looking to cool down literally, check out the Lawrence Aquatic Center and its four different locations, both indoor and outdoor. Edited by Megan Hinman

Top 10 things to do before summers end


VIctORIA PItchER
vpitcher@kansan.com If you are lucky enough to be staying in Lawrence for the summer, now is the best time to explore campus. Maybe you need something to do in between classes, or you just want to get to know the campus a little better. Here are 10 things to do on campus this summer. For an escape from the sweltering heat, check out the Spencer Museum of Art. It houses almost 36,000 works of art from around the world, and its free. Spencer Museum of Art is open limited hours Tuesday through Sunday. For hours and current exhibition information, go to spencerart.ku.edu. Play a game of Frisbee with friends or pack a picnic at Potter Lake. In its prime, Potter Lake was used for boat and swimming races. Now that the water is no longer in great condition, students find other ways to enjoy the area. Students with a valid fishing license can fish in Potter Lake, but eating the fish is not recommended. Fountain Maybe you need a quick cool down or maybe you need to take the right of passage before graduation, but swimming in the Chi Omega fountain is one of KUs many traditions. In 1952, the Chi Omega fountain was approved as a memorial for the alumnae of the KU Lambda chapter. It is 12 feet in diameter, and according to KU Info, it holds 8,500 gallons of water. If you are looking for something to do with your friends, head down to the first floor of the Kansas Union for a game of bowling. Jaybowl offers games for students at $2.50 a game, and every Friday is $1 bowling. Jaybowl is open limited hours every day from June 1 to July 1. If you want to test your strength and skill, or maybe even your fear of heights, climb the rock wall located in the Ambler Student Recreation Center. The rock wall, which was recently named the Chalk Rock, is a way to exercise that is different than the usual workout routine. The Chalk Rock is open Monday through Thursday from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m., and is free to students who are enrolled in summer classes.

With a little more time on your hands during the summer, you can try out a fit class. KU Fit offers a variety of classes from cycling to zumba. They have classes for all levels of experience. KU Fit passes cost $25 for unlimited classes during the summer. Facility use is paid through required campus fees for enrolled summer students. For those students not enrolled, they can pay for a summer membership at the recreation center.

6. Take a KU Fit class

There is just something about Wescoe. Wescoe Beach is where students like to sit and study or maybe people watch. And the Underground is a popular student hangout. Going to the Underground is a fun and easy way to meet new people, said Keith Johnson, a senior from Topeka. Johnson said he likes to get coffee and strike up conversations with people.

7. Wescoe Wonders

The Spencer Museum of Art hosts events and activities such as Art in the Global Context from 1:15-2:20pm on June 6th and a workshop to create your own art on June 9th. campus This Fourth of July, if you are hunting for a tall building to watch the fireworks, look no further than campus. I like to show people the view from the roof of the union, said Matt Mendoza, a senior from Winfield. The top of the Kansas Union parking lot is not only a great view of campus, it makes for a high-up spot for watching fireworks. If you are in need of a haircut, but are short on cash, check out Salon Hawk. And while you are there, you

can get a tan at Sun of a Beach Tanning. Salon Hawk and Sun of a Beach Tanning are located on the third floor of the Kansas Union, and they accept Beak Em Bucks. Maybe you have avoided the dining areas during regular semesters because they are overcrowded or you just didnt have time. Now is the perfect opportunity to eat on campus. Maybe even try the Impromptu Caf, a full-service restaurant located on the third floor of the Kansas Union. It is open Monday through Friday from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.

Lawrence provides breadth of hobbies


REbEKKA SchLIchtINg
rschlichting@kansan.com
Students staying in Lawrence this summer can take advantage of cooking classes, concerts and treasure hunting, among many other activities. Josh Fredrick, a senior from Lawrence, said one of his favorite things to do in Lawrence is go to concerts at the Granada, Liberty Hall and the Jackpot. Death Cab for Cutie will be playing Liberty Hall on July 8. Treasure hunting in Lawrence is also a hobby of Fredricks. Players find where transferable treasures are, using GPS on www.geocaching.com, then they hunt. After finding a treasure, they can re-hide it and share their experience on the website. Its really fun and really easy to kill big chunks of time with, Fredrick said. The first time I went, I found four or five in a row. Another hobby to pick up is cooking. The Merc, 901 Iowa Street, offers cooking classes taught by professional caterers, nutritionists and chefs. Some of their classes are Beer and Food Pairing, A Simple Italian meal to Share with Friends, Late Spring Fruit Desserts and A Mexican Taco Party for the First Day of Summer. For more classes, prices and times, check www.communitymercantile.com. After a year of academic classes, Simona Dragieva, a senior from Overland Park said she likes to relax at apartment pool parties. Student apartment complexes, such as the Legends, have pool parties during the summer. There is always barbeque, tanning and new people to meet, Dragieva said. The Lawrence Indoor Aquatic Center, 4706 Overland Drive, has a waterslide and a wheel-chair-accessible entrance into the heated pool. Lawrence Outdoor Aquatic Center, 727 Kentucky Street, features lawn chairs for tanning, two water slides and a diving board. Lawrence Parks and Recreation offers many outdoor activities, like skateboarding and two types of golfing. Centennial Park, 600 Rockledge Road, and River Front Park, Highway 24, both have 18-hole disc golf courses. Eagle Bend, 1250 E. 902 Road, has a public 18-hole golf course.

Clinton Lake also offers many outdoor activities. Macy Migchelbrink, a senior from Atwood, Kan., said she enjoyed hiking, tanning and fishing at Clinton Lake last summer. When her friends boat was available, they went tubing and wakeboarding. I had a blast; its better than going home, Migchelbrink said. Theres always a lot to do in Lawrence. There are no worries about school and no studying for finals. Edited by Megan Hinman

Kansas cut into Missouris 2-0 lead in the third inning when Tucker Tharp blasted a solo home run to left field. The shot made the game 2-1.

in the only run of the game. One day later, the Jayhawks won game two 6-3 with a solid outing by freshman pitcher Wes Benjamin. Benjamin went 7.3 innings allowing two runs on four hits while striking out three. Freshman outfielder Michael Suiter was clutch for the Jayhawks going 2 for 4 on the evening with a pair of two-out RBIs. That victory and Texas Techs loss to K-State the same day clinched a spot in the Big 12 tournament in Oklahoma City for the Jayhawks. But the Tigers flipped the script on May 19, winning the third game of the series 6-3.

Kansas fell behind early that game as junior pitcher Thomas Taylor gave up two runs in the first and third innings. Taylor (4-7) would go on and take the loss on the afternoon, tossing 5.1 innings while allowing five runs, three earned, on seven hits and two walks. He also struck out three batters. The Jayhawks cut into the Tigers lead in the fifth inning, plating all of their three runs in the inning. Freshman outfielder Michael Suiter led off the inning with his fourth homer of the season. Junior shortstop Kevin Kuntz grounded into an RBI fielders choice and senior catcher James Stanfield hit an RBI

double in the inning. With the score 4-3, the Jayhawks would never get closer to the Tigers. Missouri tacked on a run in the sixth inning and another in the seventh. The game marked Kansas regular season finale and senior day. Eight senior Jayhawks were honored before the pitch for their contributions to the team. Stanfield and senior first baseman Jake Marasco combined for three hits, a run and an RBI.

Devils try to dethrone kings in Stanley Cup finals


ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEWARK, N.J. The New Jersey Devils are suddenly hoping that the Los Angeles Kings road magic is contagious. After rolling through the previous two rounds by winning eight of 10 to reach the Stanley Cup finals, the Devils are quickly understanding what it is like to be ambushed by the Los Angeles Kings, who have won 10 straight away from home. For the second straight game, goalie Martin Brodeur and the Devils were beaten 2-1 in overtime by the Kings, who have carried an invincibility throughout the playoffs. Its hard, but were not going to quit, captain Zach Parise said Saturday night of the two home losses. Well regroup, try to win Game 3 and go from there. That one will be Monday in Los Angeles, and Game 4 will be played on Wednesday. If the Devils can get at least one of those, they will host Game 5 next Saturday night. New Jersey hasnt had to get on a plane for a road game since Game 7 of the first round against Florida. If the Devils dont pick up the scoring pace in a hurry, they will soon be flying home from the West Coast to clean out their lockers. Were still alive, said Brodeur, who was sharp in making 30 saves. Were still in great shape to do something amazing. Los Angeles has won the first three games in each of its first three series. The Devils werent about to label Game 3 as a must-win, but the chances of a comeback are remote. Several New Jersey players said they had jitters in the series opener, but those seemed to be gone in Game 2 as the Devils picked up their game and looked more like the team that knocked out the Flyers and Rangers in the previous two rounds. New Jersey only has to look back to last year to see that the Boston Bruins rebounded from an 0-2 deficit both one-goal losses against the Vancouver Canucks and captured the Cup. But they didnt expect to lose two straight at home. Whether its hard (to believe) or not, we did, Parise said.

The Jayhawks finished in last place during the Big 12 Championships for the second time in the last three years and never finished higher than sixth in his five-year tenure. Grove served as the assistant coach to former KU coach Ross Randall for one season before becoming

the head coach in 2007. Grove played at KU for three years from 1995-1997 and participated in two national championships as a Jayhawk. Athletic Director Sheahon Zenger told the Lawrence Journal World said the search to replace Grove would begin soon. Just like in other searches weve conducted, its a personnel matter, and it will be conducted in a thorough and quiet manner, Zenger said.
