In his final State of the University Address Tuesday afternoon, President George H. Emert assured students, faculty and staff that Utah State University is ready to face the many challenges that lie ahead. The challenges facing USU today are not unlike those faced more than 100 years ago when William Jasper Kerr was president of the Agricultural College in Logan, Emert said. These challenges include enrollment issues, class size, Physical Plant limitations, program expansions and legislative challenges. "It's interesting how some challenges are still with us," Emert said. He said early administration and faculty visions and values helped prepare for today. Infrastructures now in place help

USU handle challenges better than ever before. These infrastructures include physical, human, fiscal and organizational realms responsive to the demands ahead. Core values embraced by all affiliated with USU have carried the university forward to today, Emert said. 'We've set many goals," he said. "Some have been met, some not and some we're still working on." The credit for successes during recent years should go to faculty, staff, students and administrators, Emert said. He recogmzed many of these successes and advances made at USU in his nearly nine years as university president. Last year USU topped the $140 million level for research dollars generated, he said.

Legislative internships available for students JESSICA WARREN

Senior Writer

Utah State University students can pad their resumes by intermng at the Utah State Legislature. For 45 davs from mid-Tanuary through early March, int~rns ca~ work for legislators writing letters, contacting constituents, tracking bills and researahing. Cindy Nielsen, Intern Coordinator for the lnstitute of Polincal Economy, said students who take advantage of these internships are able to make contacts and begin networking for future careers. Dani Johnson interned in 1998 and said the contacts she made helped her get jobs and could be helpful in applying to graduate schools. "You definitely meet a lot of people and make a lot of contacts," she said. Johnson, who has also interned in Washington, D.C., said the hands-on experience <1fl the state level got her involved in local politics. Nielsen said this type of work is important because legislators depend on their interns for everything. "[Interns] get to see the political process from start to finish," Nielsen said.

Two dumpster fires in Logan Monday evening have aroused the suspicion of Logan City firefighters The first fire, reported at IO p. m., was in a parking lot dumpster at the Oakridge apartment complex, 1400 N. 800 East The second fire, called in just 34 mmutes later, was in a parking lot dumpster at the Old Farm apartment complex, 775 E. l 000 North. Logan City Fire Chief Paul Dextras said Logan doesn't see many dumpster fires, though there will be a rash of them about two or three times a year.

>AGGIBNEWS NUGGETS For the third consecutive year, USU broke its research dollar record. In July it closed the fiscal year up 11 percent from last year. It garnered $141 million in competi~ tive grants - $16 million more than the '98-99 record of $125 million and $38 million more than the '97-98 record of $107 million. A new endowment record was also set this year. Its value of $76.5 million marks a 225 percent increase over the last eight years.

These usually only last a week and are difficult to track, Dextras said. "They're not of such a nature that we do a tremendous amount of mvestigation," he said. The real concern, Dextras said, is that the perpetrators will eventually progress to burning valuable things like automobiles, sheds or residential and commercial property. The Utah State University and Logan City police departments are notified to "keep an extra eye out" for suspicious mdividuals and generally spend extra time driving through areas with dumpsters once an incident like this takes place, Dextras said

Johnson, a political science major, said the internship helped her apply what she was learning in her political science classes to the real thmg. She said anyone interested in politics could make the internship worthwhile. State legislators admire USU interns' work ethics, Nielsen said. "They're willing to do whatever needs to be <lone," Nielsen said Between five and eight internships are available each session. Juniors and seniors in any major with at least a 3.0 are eligible, Nielsen said. Last year compensation for interns increased from $300 to $I, 140. Nielsen said the raise, in a trial phase, is to help students from outside the Salt Lake area with living expenses. Students can also receive college credit through their universities. Once a week during the mternsh1p, students can attend seminars fea tu ring guest speakers on a variety of topics. Nielsen said former interns have gone on to work for lobbyists and the Governor's Office. The deadline for applying for internships is Nov. l 0. Applications and more information are available at the Institute of Political Economy, located in Old Main, Room 341.

ASUSU discusses upcoming Student Involvement Center JESSICA WARREN

Senior Writer

The Student Involvement Center hasn't shown up at U rah State University yet - but officials say it's on its way. The center, approved last year to be built on the second floor of the Taggart Student Center in place of the former Information Desk, was originally planned to be finished May of last year, according to a previous Statesman article. But the process was delayed for specific issues to be addressed. Over the summer, construction details like electricity were worked out. In their weekly meeting Tuesday night, members of the Associated Students of Utah State University

Executive Council were encouraged to give their input on finalizing the details for the center. The university wants to make sure the center is professional and will function properly because it will be at USU for a long time, said Angie Domichel, ASUSU Activities vice president. The council is also deciding what types of information will be included and in what form it will be presented. Some minor changes will possibly be made to accommodate these decisions. The center's design is a combination of elements from several plans submitted by USU students in a contest last year. >SEE

The Taggart Student Center was evacuated Tuesday afternoon when a smoke alarm on the 3rd floor activated the building's automatic alarm system. An alarm later that evening caused a second evacuation in the HPER bmlding Utah State Umversny Police Sgt Steve Milne said no source of smoke could be

Joe Izatt said no problems were found near the 7 07 p.m. HPER alarm either The exact location of the faulty HPER detector is unknown Izatt said the building is zoned and any detector in the zone could have triggered the alarm sys-

tern. "\Ve get a lot of false alarms," .Milne said. "They are caused by anything from dust to a bug." The majority of alarms the USU Police respond to are false, he said. "Sometimes they just go off for no apparent reason," Izatt said Izatt said some buildings on campus are equipped with heat detectors, while others have smoke detectors. He

said he thinks the detectors in the HPER are heat detectors. A significant rise m temperature may have caused the alarm. Smoke detector malfunctions are usually caused by dirt build-up, which interferes with the sensors in the alarm, said Physical facilities Electronics Foreman Mike Law. Izatt said he sees an average of three alarms a week, a low average considering the

number of alarms on campus The department generally doesn ·r see more than one a day, however. "Two in one day is really unusual," he said. Logan City Fire Chief Paul Dextras said automatic alarm systems similar to those in the TSC arc valuable. Although most alarms turn out to be false, buildings unoccupied for long lengths of time can be saved by an alarm in case of an actual fire.

Dutch parliament approves unprecedented gay marriage With a 107-33 vote, a few Christian parties voiced opposition AN"I HO

ROOM 317

Y DEUTSCH

Associated Press

THE HAGUE, Netherlands - The Netherlands, long among the gay rights vanguard, enacted a bill converting the country's "registered same-sex partnerships" into full-fledged marriages, complete with divorce guidelines and wider adoption rights for gays. Proponents say the legislation will give Dutch gays rights beyond those offered in any other country. Lawmakers thumped their desks in approval when the vote passed 107-33, and some of the scores of witnesses in the packed public gallery applauded and embraced. Parliament had discussed the bill last week, when only a few small Christian parties voiced opposition during an emotional and often heated three-day debate. It gained speedy approval Tuesday. "I'm very happy. What happened today represents changes in our society," said Mark Wagenbuur, 34. He said he and his partner, who came with him to watch the vote, wi II now formally wed, but their immediate problem is "we don't know who should ask whom." In Norway and Sweden, gay couples

can already register their partnerships and Denmark has gone a step further - it was the first country to allow gay marriages in 1989. 'F.voyears ago, the Netherlands enacted a law allowing same-sex couples to register as partners and to claim pensions, social security and inheritance. But the new Dutch legislation goes farther, creating full equality for gays, activists said. Same-sex couples will be able to marry at city hall and adopt Dutch children. Ii They will be able to divorce through the court system, like het1' erosexual couples. , Boris Dittrich, a member of the centrist Democrats 66 activist ' party and a proponent of the plan, said the law "acknowledges that a person's sex is not of importance for marriage." He spoke during what he called "the most moving debate" of his parliamentary career. "We will be able to call it what it is and that's marriage," said Henk Krol, an activist and editor-in-chief of the Gay Kram magazine. He said the vote "will be an absolute first in the world." The law is expected to take effect early

We will all be ableto callit what it is and that~ marriage."

next year. Krol said he plans.to convert his own partnership status to marriage as soon as it does. Displaying unusual solidarity, all three parliamentary factions in the governing coalition - the left-of-center Labor Party, the Liberal VVD and the smaller Democrats 66 - backed the proposal. Even a few members of the biggest opposition party, the largely traditional Christian Democratic Alliance, or CDA, have expressed support. The plan hasn't been recognized by the dominant Protestant or Roman Catholic churches, hut a few breakaway churches have sent encouraging letters to legislators. The Remonstrant Brethren, which broke from the Protestant church in 1619, was one step ahead of the Dutch parliament, having accepted gay marriages in 1986. The Remonstrants and a group called the Old Catholic Church are the best-known supporters of gay rights here. While gays will enjoy new liberties in the Netherlands, they may run into trouble when they travel in countries where homosexuality remains illegal. The Foreign Affairs i\tlinistry has proposed offering legal assistance to Dutch citizens in such cases. Some opponents fear the unique position of gays could isolate the Dutch and set the Netherlands apart. The bill will create "a world without foundations ... where the historical understanding of marriage is torn from its roots," said Kees van der Straaij of the Refonned Political Party.

Environmentalists sue, claiming new salmon rules aren,t strong enough to protect the wild REBECCA COOK

Associated Press

SEATTLE - A group of em·ironmentalists sued the federal government Tuesday to try to make officials strengthen rules intended to protect Northwest and California wild salmon runs from extinction. "Salmon are in serious trouble, yet the federal government is not doing what the law requires to ensure salmon survive and recover," said Patti Goldman, lead attorney on the case from Earthjustice Legal Defense Fund. "Instead they propose to continue to allow the harm and claim to have recovery at the same time. That won't work, and it's illegal." The National Marine Fisheries Service issued salmon-protection rules in June, after 14 salmon and steelhead species were l"isted as threatened or endangered under the Endangered Species Act. The rules tell people, companies and governments what not to do if they want to avoid being sued under the Endangered Species Act for harming salmon and steelhead. They're called the 4(d) rules, named for the authorizing section of the Endangered Spe1,:iesAct, and apply to nearly 160,000 square miles in \Vashington, Oregon, Idaho and California. The rules did something new by giving local and state governments more flexibility. If local and state governments come up with their own plans to regulate activities such as logging, road-building and urban development, the federal government will let them be "exempt" from the 4(d) regulations.The environmental groups object to these "exemp-

· 11s" · they amou t etheart oeal >r developers and the timber industry. The lawsuit says the 4(d) rules intended to save salmon - are actually putting the species in more danger. "If we are serious about recovery, the rule should encourage state and local governments to develop science-based salmon recovery plans that work," said Joan Crooks of \Vashington Environmental Council. "Instead, this rule encourages a political version of 'Let's Make a Deal."' The National Marine Fisheries Service has said the exemptions are the best way to cut red tape and encourage local governments to devise regulations that work for their areas. NMFS officials have also said they are prepared to defend the rules in court. The federal government has already given tentative approval to one such exemption, the vVashington Forest and Fish Agreement. The Legislature and the governor approved the agreement, which limits logging around stream beds and on hillsides while giving the timber industry 50 years of regulatory certainty and tax breaks. Environmentalists say the Forest and Fish Agreement isn't strong enough to protect salmon. The \Vashington Environmental Coalition, Earthjustice Legal Defense Fund, the Northwest Ecosystem Alliance, the Pacific Rivers Council and the Pacific Coast Federation of Fishermen's Associations are suing on several fronts. They are challenging the exemption for the Forest and Fish agreement in the 4(d) rules under the Endangered Species Act, and are challenging the Forest and Fish agreement on the grounds it does not comply with the Clean \Vater Act.

Atlantatransitagencyrunning abortionrightsadvertisements ATLANTA (AP) - Abortion rights advertisements began appearing on city buses as a result of a First Amendment court challenge, but they will be the last issue-oriented ads on the Atlanta transit system. The Metropolitan Rapid Transit Authority rejected the abortion ads last year, citing its policy banning ads with controversial subjects. But the National Abortion Federation sued, and a federal judge ruled in June that MARTAs reason for rejecting the ads was too vague. l\lA¥~A previously accepted ads concerning gay rights, racial and religious tolerance, AIDS awareness, pregnancy counseling and adoption services but had rejected political ads. MARTA signed an agreement with the federation Aug. 18 that permits the ads on buses and at bus shelters for three months. The ads, which went up Monday, won't be displayed in MARTA trains, the federation's Stephanie Mueller said Tuesday. MARTA spokeswoman Dee Baker said the dispute over the abort10n ads prompted the agency to revamp its policies. Once the three-month agreement expires, MARTA will allow only commercial ads, she said.

Remainsfound of girl missing since family slaying in 1998 DALTON, Ark. (AP) - Bones found by a hunter have been identified as those of an 8-year-old girl who vanished more than two years ago when her family was murdered. The bones, discovered Friday in a remote area a few miles south of the Missouri state line, were confirmed to be the remains of Felicia Elliott on Monday, state police said. The murders remain unsolved. Felicia's whereabouts had been a mystery since July 30, 1998, when police discovered the bodies of Lisa Elliott, 2 7, and her 7year-old son Gregory at the family's home in Dalton. Both had been bludgeoned to death. Tivo days later the body of Carl Elliott, 30, who had been the chief suspect in the case, was found in a nearby river. An autopsy found that he was also murdered, shot at least once in the head. "The whole time, we've wondered where Felicia was, and tragically now we know the answer to that," Arkansas State Police Sgt. Stan \Vitt said. State police did not release further details, including how the girl died and where the bones were-found. , , •1 ,

Angrypower customersdescend on citycouncilmanover bills SPRINGVILLE, Utah (AP) - Councilman Craig Conover arrived at the city offices Monday morning to find about 30 furious residents clutching astronomical August power bills. Not only was the new 5.3 cents per kilowatt hour cost adjustment added to the bill, hut a city power employee - who no longer has a job - had estimated meter readings in three districts of the city. As a result, about 30 residents received power bills for as much as $600 for the month. Conover and Councilman Fritz Boyer reside in one of the districts where the meter reader estimated power use last month. Conover said the city sent out letters warning residents in the one district of the incoming bills, promising the errors would be corrected at a later date. However, the employee also had estimating meter readings in two other districts and those residents were not warned. "The guy just guessed," Conover said. "People are mad, what can you expect?" Conover said the City Council will meet Sept. 19 to discuss payment options and to talk about the future of Springville power. ''\Ve're going to try to work out something so those people can pay the city over time and not be penalized in any way," he said.

NEW YORK (AP) - After success with its smart card in Europe and Japan, Visa is aiming squarely at the U.S. market with an upgraded version that contains more memory. Over the next couple of weeks, Visa USA, the company's U.S. division, will be launching smart cards - microprocessors embedded in plastic -that will offer prepackaged services to be determined by its issuers. Customers will be able to download information from their computers via special card readers. Over the next year or so, they will be able to store airline tickets, for example, and eventually use the cards as keys to their cars and homes. The card, which has 32 kilobytes of memory, is different from Visa's original version, which has mainly served as a "monetary value card," said Al Banisch, senior vice president of consumer credit products. The new card will be available free to Visa's 350 million cardholders.

Glenn Miller Spectacular to remain at USU Non-profit group shows its support JESSICA WARREN

Senior Writer

The show will go on, much to the satisfaction of the directors, dancers and singers of the Glenn Miller Spectacular and the many people who come each year to see them perform After 23 years, the show will transition from being a university production to joining an alliance with a non-profit organization. This change results from Utah State University administration concerns about the affordability of the production. The transition willbe gradual, said Patricia Terrell, vice president for Student Services, who will now oversee the production. The university will withdraw its funding over several years as part of the transition until the show becomes self-supporting. According to Derek Furch, director of Programs and Entertainment, the show costs approximately $350,000 to produce, and all of that is covered by ticket sales. University funding pays for salaries, office and rehearsal space, performance space, costume storage and other operation costs. Furch said the university would like to maintain some kind of association with the show, but the level of involve-

ment has yet to be determined . The transition was proposed by the Bridgerland Performing Arts Council, which approached the university administrators. The non-profit group will have a board as well as an advisory board to take care of business items like fund-raising and

promotional strategies for the show. The board is made up of Terrell; Jim Chapman, president of Crestmark Productions; James A. MacMahon, vice president for University Advancement; Ron Harris, representing the patrons; and Catherine

Montgomery, a prior alumni president, and possibly others as needed. The advisory board will be made up of people from the television broadcast industry, motion picture industry, legal advisers, arts council advisers, representatives from the Cache Chamber of Commerce and other local representatives. The transition concept was Chapman's idea, who is acting chair of the board. Since this decision is only about a month old, they are working on organization while preparing the show for the 2001 season. Furch said that in April, when auditions are normally held, they were going to have a smaller show rather than the large production as in the past. He only auditioned singers. He said the university decided a month ago to continue the show as usual this year, and tryouts were held the second day of school. Furch said students transferred from Weber State University and were here the next day to be a part of the show. 'We're on the ground floor here of a long venture," Chapman said. They are in the middle of working out the details, but he said they are headed in a positive direction. Chapman has been involved with the Glenn Miller show for all of its 23 years, providing the orchestra music for the show as president of Crestmark Productions. He said he and all involved

are working hard to ensure continuity for all future shows . Gary Chambers, assistant vice president for Student Life, said the administration is doing what it can to help "\Ve are moving forward to keep things going as they have in the past," he said. The 2001 season, which will begin in January, will be "busi ness as usual," Chapman said. Furch said he hopes the show will continue to be a strong representative of the university and its talented and dedicated students. Chapman said in all of this the goal is to allow the show to continue at the level of performance and quality that has become known to many 'We've got a lot of support within the community," Chapman said. Many local businesses, hotels and the Cache Chamber of Commerce are among businesses who have expressed support . In the past, the show has travelled the Mountain West, including Sun Valley, Idaho , and around Utah, as well as Iowa, Glenn Miller's birthplace. Chapman said he hopes to increase the show's season and exposure in the future . He said they have the right people involved to provide positive direction needed. "This is going to be an ongoing effort," Chapman said. He and Furch said they are hopeful for successful shows in the future . 'We're all looking forward to a successful alliance," Chapman said.

will call for effective management in the future of research at USU. While researchers at USU have accomplished great things, a balance between teaching and research is essential, Emert said. The faculty at USU has an out standing reputation in teaching, he said. The teachers here compete in a very competitive marketplace and help the students they teach to compete. Surveys show most USU graduates do well at finding employment in fields related to their education . Emert commended students and student leaders for their many accomplishments, highlighting the " referendum vote passed by the student body last spring to construct a $12.5 million student recreation center. Although many of the students voting will graduate before the facility is completed, they were willing to increase fees now to aid students in the future. He also recognize.-J the giving nature of USU students. More than 25,000 hours of community servi ce was contributed by more than 5,000 students last year. Volunteer programs at the Val R. Christensen Service Center have been an outstandmg contribution to the community, he said .

The two most pressing needs at USU are salary equity and financial aid for students . he said. "Many of ourreople want to be here regardless o compensation," he said. "But that's not fair to them . We need to invest in our faculty and staff" Efforts to increase scholarship funding to aid USU students have been successful in past years. In all of USU's history, $29 million have been raised for scholarships. The past five years have brought in more than $23 million of that total. Emert encouraged a continuation of th is effort. Throu ghout his address, Emert said he acknowledged the needs and challenges to be faced, but feels faculty, staff and administration have been remarkably successful. His continued emphasis was on preparing for the future. "Students can't wait," he said. "We must be ready \Ve cannot go forward without thinkmg about what we will me et tomorrow.''

Scholarship awardedat first footballgame USU student Julie Hansen won a $500 tuition waver scholarship at the home football game last Saturday. Hansen is the first winner of a scholarship program by Sigma Alpha Epsilon, a former Greek fraternity at USU. SAE is planning to award a $500 scholarship to a USU student at every home game the Aggies play this season. The day of each game, a random student identification number of a USU graduate or undergraduate will be selected and put in an envelope with the student's name. This name will be announced at the home game . The student will have five minutes to report to the south booth to claim the award. If the award is claimed in time, the scholarship value will start over at $500. If the award is not claimed, the scholarship will be doubled to $1,000 and carried over to the next home game. Dee Jones, an SAE alumnus, is also donating a $500 scholarship at each home game. The scholarship award from SAE is announced during the first half of the game, and the award from Dee Jones is announced during the second half. The Dee Jones scholarship award was not claimed last Saturday, which means that the award will be $1,000 at the next hQille gam~. \ The SAE award will be $500 .

The Utah State Universitr chapter of the '-Iational Society o Collegiate Scholars inducted its first members during a meeting last night in the Kent Concert Hall. Speakers at the induction and convocation meeting included Vanessa Ballam-Brenchley, distinguished member; Kim Openshaw, adviser; Eileen Moore, national representative; and Anne Bowerbank, chapter president. The speakers emphasized to new members the importance of good citizenship, service and scholastics. "It is an opportunity to get students involved in community service from their first year at college," Moore said of the society. "It gives them an easier transition from high

school to college." Officers and members were sworn in at the meeting . They also recognized four honorary members: George Emert, USU president; Vanessa BallamBrenchley, former Miss Utah; Sandy Checketts, community contributor; and David Roos, USU registrar. The NSCS also welcomed new members and informed them about upcoming activities. 'Welcome to all the new members . I am excited about the difference we [NSCS] are going to make on campus and in the community," Bowerbank said. The NSCS was founded at George Washington University as a non-profit organization. There are currently 122 chapters and over l00,000 members, Moore said.

She said whatever information is available to be picked up m hard copies at the center, it will be mixed with other information stored in a computer system. Their hope is to capitalize on the technology available while keeping it user friendly for everyone, Domichel said. There have already been some

minor changes to the center' s design plan, such as removal of the doors to allow the space to be open, the addition of a tile "A" on the floor for continuity with the Hub and a change in the types of tables and racks used.

They go door to door preaching the word of God, sharing their message with all they meet. Every member of the Jehovah's Witness faith is required to evangelize on a regular basis for the rest of their life after baptism, said Misty Harper, a member of the local Jehovah's Witness congregation. "The amount of time they decide to go is up to each person - 70 hours a week is full time," Harper said. "The Cache Valley area is small, and much friendlier than most. The people are pretty laid back and more

willing to talk scriptural so we are received quite well," Harper said. Jehovah is the name of God, as fou'1d in the Bible; a witness is a person who relates facts from direct personal knowledge or proclaims views or truths of which he or she is convinced. Thus the name Jehovah's \Vitness designates an organized group of Christians who proclaim the truth that Jehovah is a loving and just God deserving of love an<l obedience. They do this by sharing what they have learned from the Bible with friends and neighbors, according to the Jehovah's \Vitness public affairs \Veb sire. The governing bo<ly of

Jehovah's Witnesses, which has a U.S. membership of nearly l million, is headquarted in New York. The Cache Valley congregation includes 75 English-speaking members and 65 in the Spanish-speaking members, Harper said. "Members of the congregation are called publishers and call each other brother and sister as a form of affection," Harper said. "The members support themselves and each other. There is no paid clergy." \Vhen a group of Jehovah's vVitnesses forms, members show support by building a new church, known as a Kingdom Hall, in four days.

"The process starts on a Thursday at 7 a.m. and is finished hy Sunday in time for services. All the materials and labor is funded bv volunteer donations," Harper said. Local Jehovah's \Vitnesses meet for two hours on Sundays. English-speaking members meet at 10 a.m. and Spanish-speaking members meet at l p.m. in the Kingdom Hall at 2865 S. Mai°ii St. in Nibley. "The meetings are open to the public; there is no collection or forced participation," sai<l Ryan Harper, a Jehovah's \\ 'itness. ;\1eetings open with a song. i\fter a 45-minute Bible lecture and another

song, members discuss an article taken from the Watch Tower magazine, a Jehovah's Witness publication, is discussed at length, Misty Harper said. The meeting is concluded with another song and a closing prayer. "Audience participation is encouraged, but not forced," Misty Harper said. "Everyone meets together for the meetings, it strengthens the family." "To become one of Jehovah's Witnesses, you must live by Bible principles. Emphasis is placed on personal application of Bible principles and the value of sound Bible-based conscien~e. You must also par-

ticipate in the door-to-door ministry on a regular basis," Misty Harper said. Baptism is also required to become a member. "Baptism symbolizes one's dedication to God and is taken by those of responsible age who have made an informed decision. Baptism is by complete immersion," Misty Harper said. Currently there is no club or group associated with the Jehovah's Witnesses at USU. Misty Harper said this was because most members are older.

Fraternity/sorority welcomes all cultures to participate

The first multicultural sorority and fraternity in the West has been instigated at Utah State University this year to help promote diversity on campus and in the community. Though they were founded to bring together students from diverse cultures, especially minorities , "multicul~ral'' means all are welcome in these clubs. "Our director thought it would be a good idea to bring in more sororities," said Mandy Richmond, secretary of the Epsilon Colony. "We knew we couldn't have one for every minority; there are just too many. The mission for the multicultural one seemed to fit the best." Richmond traveled to Theta Nu Xi headquarters in North Carolina this month to get the sorority started. "I was really afraid because I represented the entire Utah group," she said. But her fears were quickly relieved. "It was like I walked into a family reunion. We've gone through the same things and have the same goals." Duane Finley, president of the fraternity, said, "Marco Flores, our vice president, was the man behind it all. He recruited me. \Ve were already doing so much to promote multicultural (awareness); we decided we needed an organization to join us all together." The fraternity presidency will travel to New Jersey for the national banquet in December. The sorority and fraternity work together on many activities, including service projects, fund raisers and some meetmgs.

They'll combine for upcoming activities, including an opening dance Friday in the

"\Ve all wanted to join something, but not just another student organization," Finley said. "I saw pride and commitment with Psi Sigma Phi, and I wanted that. Now I have that." About 15 to 20 people have expressed interest in joining the sorority, Richmond said. She said, "We don't see ourselves with a lot of members. We're more interested in getting clubs started at other universities. If we have two members, we're happy; if we have 50 members, we're happy. "We want to be able to eliminate dues. It's $30 a semester now to join." Finley said, "We want to get sponsors to help with the dues. We ant people to be able to

Psi Sigma Phi's presidency includes: President Duane Finley, Vice President Marcos Flores, Secretary Brent Miller , Treasurer Nick Renfro, Historian Khan Nguyen, Pledge Educator Mike De Lao, Fundraising Demetrio Cabanillas and Activities Coordinator Steve Bishop. "All eight of our founders are on academic scholarship. It's a collaboration of minds ," Finley said, "We won't ever lose touch with each other. They're my family; my home away from home."

ancient, historic structure. In America a building this ancient and important would have only been visible through several panes of glass from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. for an entrance fee, and at the end there would have been endless T-shirtand postcard peddlers. Dioclesian's Palace had the feel of an American shopping mall. It was full of energy; teenagers, merchants, families all came to shop and watched entertainers. In the background was this massive creation of an empire long dead. I imagine that ancient Croatians and Romans participated in many of the same activities under the protection of the same walls. Through the course of my tour I went to several more such villages. Some had been built as fortresses, some as cities. But they have all endured through the Romans, Turks,and far more recently, the Serbians, to be used an enjoyed by the Croatians. I saw and did lots more things in Croatia. I enjoyed several afternoons snorkeling in the crystal clear Adriatic Sea with its many interesting creatures. And I blushed at the nakedness of the people on the beaches. I especially enjoyed the food; octopus salad and the spicy-hamburger-pitathings were my favorite. But the outstanding feature will always be, actually experiencing it myself.

It calledfor a Justice Department investigationand successfullyurged changesin hate-crime legislationthat would make it easier to prosecute attacks on churches. The ADL keeps track of acts of bigotry againstJews in its annual "Audit of Anti-Semitic Incidents."

The letter the ADL sent to Lieberman "is only the latest in a series ofletters we haveissued," Foxman says."What started happening during the primary season, primarilyin the Republican part of it, was we were seeing some Republicancandidatesfor the nomination competing,vith each other as to who was holier than thou.

.·HillaryasksNewYorkDemocrats to makeher their official candidate ROBERT TANNER

Associated Press

Hillary Rodham Clinton asked New York's Democratic voters Tuesday to make her their official candidate for Senate, while four Minnesota Democrats fought it out for the right to face embattled GOP Sen. Rod Grams in November. Nine states and the District of Columbia had contests on the last big primary day of 2000. In Selma, Ala., the white mayor, a reformed segregationist in a city with a black majority, faced a black challenger in his first runoff in 36 years. In Vermont, where homosexuals can now be united in civil ceremonies, a dozen Republicans who voted for the law faced strong primary threats. With attention focused on the presidential race and incumbent senators and governors facing scant or no primary challenges, several states were expecting low turnout. The question for Clinton, whose nomination was all but assured, was whether challenger Mark McMahon, an orthopedic

surgeon, would get enough votes to embarrass her. Her Republican opponent, Rep. Rick Lazio, was unopposed. In the New York City area, shifting demographics spurred strong challenges for Democratic Reps. Eliot Engel and Major Owens. Both are in districts so heavily Democratic that the nomination is almost tantamount to victory in November. Five candidates sought Lazio's open seat in Congress, with the GOP backing Islip Town ClerkJoanJohnson, who if elected would be the first black woman Republican in the House. In Minnesota, Grams' first term left him with poor poll numbers and a Democratic scramble to unseat him. Four Democrats - department store heir Mark Dayton; trial lawyer Mike Ciresi; state Sen.Jerry Janezich, the Democrats' endorsed candidate; and Rebecca Yanisch, a construction executive, spent $10 million in their fight for the nomination. Alabama's runoff between Mayor Joe Smitherman and

businessman James Perkins stirred old memories. Smitherman's tenure stretches back to the bloody voting rights march of 1965. At the time, he supported segregation. Weak turnout didn't appear to be likely in Vermont, where anger about the civil unions law spurred an increase in registration. Most Republican state legislators who voted for the law faced primary challenges, while many Democrats were seeing challengers line up for the fall. No U.S. senator or governor wound up with a strong primary challenger.In Rhode Island, where four-term GOP Sen. John Chafee died last year, his son Lincoln - appointed to fill out his term - was unopposed. Former Lt. Gov. Richard Licht and Rep. Robert Weygand sought the Democratic nomination. Other senators with scant or no primary opposition were Wisconsin Democrat Herbert Kohl, Arizona Republican Jon Kyl, Vermont Republican James Jefford and Connecticut's Joseph Lieberman, also running for vice president.

lftah woman stable after being raped, shot LAYTON, Utah (AP) -A woman who was raped and shot in the head Sunday by a man who then killed himself has been upgraded to stable condition, hospital officials said. It was initially reported that the man was the woman's ex-boyfriend, but that was not the case, police said Monday. The 35-year-old Sandy man, whose name has not been released pending notification of kin, was under court oi;der to stay away from the individuals residing at the east Layton home. Despite t:fyatorder, the man was waiting inside as three women entered the home shortly after 10 a.m. Sunday. The three women fled, but the man chased after them and forced one back into the house at gunpoint, police Lt. Steve Brown said. The assailant's ex-girlfriend was one of the women who escaped. Once inside, the man raped the woman and then shot her in the head with a .38-caliber revolver. The woman fled from the home after the man shot himself. l

This was not the first domestic violence incident at the home. Shortly after midnight on May 7, the man purportedly began punching the door of this same home, saying, "This is what I can do to you," according to a protective order that was issued on Aug. 8, said. The police arrived after the man allegedly fled the scene and found a door dented and bloodied, the court document continued. Officers requested a victim's advocate contact the ex-girlfriend to discus.sa protective order, which was eventually sought and granted. Court records indicate the man denied the allegations but agreed to the order. According to the Davis County Attorney's Office, approximately 500 people receive protective orders each year in the county. "If a perpetrator is determined to violate it, they will," Deputy County Attorney Heidi Nestel said. "In a case where an abuser is that determined, there's nothing a protective order can do."

with his hand, shuffles, then sprints at an angle to another cone and touches it. He said the drills are designed to work on all aspects of agility. Other positions on the field are straight-forward, not much running is involved, he said. "For us the speed, and especially the lateral movements are probably more important than [they are] at any other position," he said. Surprisingly, Eagal has only been a linebacker since coming to USU. At St. Mary's High School in Stockton, Calif., he played defensive end. "I was kind of an athletic defensive end and I wasn't real big, so they moved me to linebacker when I got up here," he said. "It's kind of been a learning process for me. The mentality is a lot different on the defensive line. It's a lot more aggressive. You don't have to think about a lot of stuff. You turn up the volume all the way and go at it." Another qualification linebackers must possess is patience, Eagal said. Linebackers must pick their "spots to charge," which requires a lot of lateral movement and the ability to read a lot more things. The position is more mental, he said.

After 17 straight games as Utah State's starting quarterback, junior Jeff Croshie will take a seat in the Aggies' next game against Arizona State University on Sept. 23 in favor of sophomore Jose Fuentes . Fuentes earned the spot by helping USU rally in the second half to beat Southern Utah University Saturday, passing for 198 yards and four touchdowns "I'm really excited that I'm starting now," he said. "This is what I've been waiting for since I came here to play. Everyone plays to start, and now it's my tum." "[Quarterback] is a position of not just making plays and being productive, but of being a leader and leading the team to the end zone,'' said head coach Mick Dennehy. "For that reason I feel like Jose deserves a chance to start." Fuentes said he feels the decision was based on his performance against SUU. "I felt Jose was more comfortable and more relaxed and was able to move around a little bit,'· Dennehy said. "You saw some poise. He appeared to be comfortable back there." \Vith Fuentes starting, Dennehy said Crosbie will have a chance to relax instead of "being thrown into the fire." "The bottom line is that Jeff has had an opportunity and he has struggled a little bit in terms of his ability to confidently do his job, and the opportunity will still be there for him to play,'' Dennehy said. "He could use th is as a catapult to become the player that I think he is and can become the kind of player that he thinks he can become ." Fuentes' received action prior to the SUU contest in four games last season, completing 4 of 11 for 91 yards and two interceptions. He did not play in the season opener against Texas Tech.

What will we remember most about Bobby Knight? Wil l it be the three national championships? Possibly, but I doubt it. What about his 763 career wins? It could be, but probably won't. Will it be the way he looked in that ridiculously small 1975 Indiana-Red sweatshirt? Well, that horrid image probably creeps into mind more often than we'd like, but there's still one thing we'll remember "Knight" for more than anything else. The chair. You remember the jingle , don't you? Come to Bobby Knight's furniture store: Buy a table, and he'll throw in the chair. Yes, it's the chair that will stand out in our minds the most, and maybe that's the way it should be. I mean, it's not like the man was a pleasure to be around. Let's not kid ourselves here. He's a 59year-old bully. Do you remember the interview with NBC's Connie Chung? It was classic Bobby Knight. He told her that if rape is in~itable, "women should just lay back -and enjoy it." I'm not kidding. I wish I were mak ing th is up. And this crap went on for 29 years at Ind iana. That's just a few bits shy of three decades - three decades of hell. Can you imagine what it must have been like for the public relations personnel at Indiana Univers ity? Talk about a nightmare. They could handle anything after 29 years of Bobby Knight. "And why do you think you could succeed with our company, Mr. Jones?" "Well, I've been with the worst, sir. I've covered for Bob Knight for 29 years. I've been to hell and back, shook hands with the Devil and looked him in the eye. He wears Indiana Red, by the way. I made it through that, so I can make it through anything." "I understand," the employer would say. "Tell me, what was it like - really?" "Well, in addition to the famous chair incident and the Connie Chung interview, there was the time he went ballistic during the 1987 NCAA regional tournament, repeatedly banged his fist on the scorer's table after a technical foul and received a $10,000 fine. "Then there was the 1995 NCM tournament in which he was fined another $30,000 for an outburst at a postgame news conference. Those obscenities are still floating around somewhere in outerspace. ' "Did you hear about when he got arrested?" "No, what was that all about?" "Oh, he hit a guy in Puerto Rico during the 1979 Pan Am Games - and get this: The guy was a policeman." Yeah, when you boil right down to it, Knight is a firstclass jerk. I'd lil<e to be present at his funeral when the person giving the eulogy has to think of something nice to ► SEE

Idaho transfer Smith turns the momentum vs. T-birds REUBEN WADSWORTH

AssistantSportsEditor Utah Statesman: How excited were you to find out you would be a starter at linebacker this year? Cade Smith: I was acrually very excited. I finally get a chance to play and show that I can play at this level. US: Why does USU recruit so heavily near your hometown of Lancaster, Calif.? CS: There are like six big schools there, so I'm sure there's a lot of talent coming out of there. There are like 2,000 or 3,000 kids at each school. Plus we've got coach (Tom) McMahon, who's a good recruiter down there. He's a good talker. We let everyone know how good the school is up here. US: Has your USU football experience been everything you expected? Why? CS: Last year, yes. The first years, not really, because I didn't get to play that much. I like this new coaching staff a lot better than the other one, and I think they like me. It's a good siruation. It goes each way. US: What does the defense as a unit have to do to contain Arizona State? CS: We've just got to control their passing attack and their running attack - keeping their quarterback scrambling. If we do everything spotlessly, we should win the game. US: Why do you like playing

big schools like ASU? CS: It proves that even though you are the smaller school (and Division 1-A), that you can play with athletes at bigger schools, like UCLA or Georgia last year. We can play with them. It's just the luck of the draw of where you went to school.

US: If you could go to dinner with three people, living or dead, who would you choose and why? CS: I'd like to meet Vince Lombardi if he was alive, just to hear his strategies and his coaching ethics. I read his book and I really enjoyed it. Jennifer Love Hewitt because I think she's hot and I just want to find some girls up here. Probably just like one of the special football players that played linebacker like (Lawrence) Taylor or one of the big ones that could tell me how to make it and survive if I make it to that level. US: Does the linebacker corps hang out off the field? If so, what do you do? CS: Actually me and (Brent) Passey and Nick (Onaindia) and a bunch of us are pretty tight. A bunch of them live together and I just hang out. Even though there's not as much to do here in this town we make the best of it. US: How was the transition from your hometown to Logan? What was the hardest thing about it? CS: This is my third college.

I went to Idaho before this and junior college. I don't really miss home. My parents come every game so I get to see them all the time. They've been coming for the last four years. US: What do you feel is one of the greatest accomplishments in your life? CS: Probably when I graduate this semester (in exercise science). If I don't make it in the pro level or anything above that I'm going to go to grad school and work up from there. US: What is your favorite elementary school memory? CS: I don't even remember elementary school, it was so long ago. Probably just how much fun I used to have just being a kid. I used to ride my bike. I used to jump. Me and my brother and all the kids around my house used to go out in the desert and build jumps.

On the line Before every play, the defensive unit checks the distance the opposing offense has to go to get a first down, Eagal said. After that, they get a play from the sideline and run it through their heads to figure out each of their assignments, then line up according to the formation the offense comes out in. At the snap of the ball, the defense looks for certain keys to read whether the play will be a run or pass, he said. When the defense sees which it is, "from there we just kind of play football," Eagal said. "It's a lot more thinking than you realize from the sidelines." The linebackers are the conduit for information within the defense. The defensive linemen and the secondary only talk to the linebackers, and it's the linebackers' job to pass the word on to whichever defensive unit hasn't heard it yet, Eagal said. Defensive leaders are generally the linebackers, he said.

The game After the SUU game, Eagal said he was impressed with his linebackers' performance. "It was unbelievable tonight," he said "I think as a corps this is maybe the best we've ever played. Coach Dennehy agreed. "Our linebackers are pretty good players," he said. "They stood out. They were the ones that were making plays on the run. Those turnovers (one fumble and three interceptions) were huge. That field position that they ?,aveus was just what the doctor ordered. ' Though very complimentary of his fellow linebackers' performances, Eagal rated his own a seven on a scale of one to 10. "I had two sacks at the end of the game that I missed," he said. "I was really disappointed. If I make those sacks at the end, it's more of an eight-and-a-half, nine. It's never perfect, so I'd never give myself a 10." With 5:18 left in the game, Eagal tripped while pursuing SUU quarterback Matt Cannon. With 1:39 left,

Eagal was at Cannon's heels, but Cannon eluded him and got the pass off. Missed sacks aside, Eagal did make some big plays. Early in the fourth quarter, Eagal was integral in tackling Cannon for an 11-yard loss that forced an SUU fourth down. USU's first offensive play on the next series was a 70yard touchdown reception from USU quarterbackJose Fuentes to receiver Aaron Jones. Eagal also caused the fumble that sent Smith 47 yards down the sidelines. Eagal said he was just trying to make the play on third and short, and the ball squirted out. "Next thing I knew I saw Cade Smith and a swarm of blue jerseys running up the sideline, so I started sprinting down looking for someone I could block trying to help spring it, and we got it quite a ways down," he said. Eagal was the first defender to make a hit on many occasions early in the game, in~luding SUU's very first play from scnmmage. Being the first defender in on a tackle gives Eagal a certain satisfaction.

"For me it's always big to get on plays early," he said. "It kind of gets me into the game. It gets my adrenaline up a little bit just knowing that [I'm] making plays. It helps the rest of the game. It ~ves you some momentum personally.' Even if he doesn't make the first hit, Eagal is always trying to get in on the play, he said. Many times during the SUU encounter he was doing as much running as a safety, avoiding the offensive line as he tried to get to the running back or the quarterback. "[I was] just trying to make plays all over the field, really," he said."It's one of those games that was a lot of fun. Everyone was making plays. I was just trying to get in on as many of them as possible.'' If there is anything he didn't notice about his performance in the SUU game or any other contest, the coaches will fill him in every Monday when they watch the game film. Coaches make a stat sheet of every play to determine how well each player performed, Eagal said.

CENTERPIECE Soccer club looks to stabalize future after dropping'B'team AARO',' MORTON

SportsEditor The men's soccer club needs some rebuilding. This was very apparent after USU's 6-1 loss to Weber State University at Tower Field Saturday. A once proud program is now being embarassed by a school USU used to compete with . This year the program canceled the "B" team to focus just on the "A" team to strength the club. Last year the "A" team was in financial trouble due to mismanagement, said Director of Campus Recreation Deanne Williams. "The club just kind of lost focus," Williams said. It was in the best interest of the program to eliminate one of the teams , she said. One team is the norm, said club coach Kyle Jacobsen . Of the Wasatch Front universities, only Weber State operates two

an NCAA men's soccer program," Williams said, adding that she doesn't see that happening in the near future. Right now, the club runs on a shoe-string budget of $11,000. Of that, the university pitches in $5,000 - all of which comes from student fees. Sixteen clubs share a total of USU's $44,000 club sport budget. The rest of the cash needed is covered by players and fund raisers. Coach Jacobsen, a USU student, has a salary of $1,000 per season .

clubs. The shake-up has left the team without a lot of returnees. Only seven players from either team have come back from last year. Jacobsen, who coached the "B" team last season , cited marriage, graduation and transfers as reasons for the mass exodus. Although the club is still winless on the season (0-3-2) and has only scored one goal in three games, Jacobsen is hopeful for the future. "I see a lot of good, smart players," he said. "We're going to build it up from what was left over." Williams sees the program staying with just one team for the next few years. As with q1.ostclubs, men's soccer eventually wants to become a university program with scholarships, and the elimination of the "B" was in part motivated by that, she said.

Strawberry house arrested for violatingprobation VICKIE CHACHERE

AssociatedPress TAMPA, Fla. (AP) Suspended Yankees star Darryl Strawberry was sentenced to two years' house arrest Tuesday after admitting he violated probation by driving under the influence of medication and by leaving the scene of an accident. Strawberry, who is fighting the spread of colon cancer, apologized during a brief hearing before Judge Florence Foster for causing a Monday morning traffic accident. He said he blacked out from his medication while heading to a meeting with his probation officer. "I used the wrong judgment ... taking medication because I didn't feel well," he INDIANA COACH BOB KNIGHT at his team's opening game in the 1999 NCAA Tournament. Knight was fired Sunday for violating a zero-tolerance policy. /KRT photo by Gary Bogdon

Controversy clouds Bob Knight's firing JAMES BOOZER

TribuneCampusServices We all knew it could happ~n on_any given day at any given time, but no one expected Bobby Knight's career at Indiana University would come to an end in a wave of overwhelming controversy. Some may see Indiana president Myles Brand's decision to fire Knight after 29 years as head couch of Indiana's basketball team as befitting for a man who has been accused of abusive behavior toward players and university employees. However, the September 7 incident involving an IU freshman isn't a clear-cut case against Knight as many have made it out to be. And as a result, one of the most beloved (and hated) coaches in college basketball history is out of a job. Here's how the event unfolded that lead to Knight's dismissal. Kent Harvey, a IU freshman, accused Knight of grabbing his arm and verbally assaulting him after he referred to Knight, who was passing by Harvey and his friends at the time, by his last name. "I don't see celebrities very often. I was kind of nervous, so I said, 'Hey what's up Knight?' I didn't know what to say and I wasn't trying to be disrespectful," Harvey told a Indianapolis TV station. In an effort to clear himself of any wrongdoing, Knight held a press conference Friday at Indiana's Assembly Hall to respond to Harvey's allegations. "I would have to be an absolute moron - an absolute moron - with the things that have been laid on me, to grab a kid in public and curse at a kid in public, as apparently it's been said that I did," Knight said. But Knight's denial failed to impress IU officials, who felt th~y were left with no choice but to let him go. This sparked student protests and

death threats being sent to Harvey, who is now in hiding. And all of this occurred based on one person's version of what happened versus that of another person. I guess it's easy to believe Harvey considering Knight has been known to be the type of person who can blow up at people at any time for whatever reason, but Harvey's story doesn't stand up. He says he was in line waiting to buy football tickets with four friends when Knight started cursing at him and grab his arm. Harvey even had a bruise that would seem to suggest that Knight did forcefully grab him, but we never heard from anyone, not even Jiierv~r's fl:ien<ls'who were there during the ordeal, who could support his side of the story. The only people standing behind what Harvey said happened is his stepfather, Mark Shaw, and his father, Jerry Harvey. Shaw, a frequent critic of Knight, is a former radio talk-show host in Bloomington, Ind. and has also worked for ESPN. "I stand by my boy's credibility. It's a good thing there were four of them," Jerry Har.vey told ESPN as if Knight was primed to attack his son during the incident. So what it all comes down to is whether or not Kent Harvey or Bobby Knight is really telling the truth. I think that Harvey was encouraged by his stepfather and father to seek out Knight and engage in a confrontation that could force Knight into disobeying the "zero-tolerance" policy imposed on him in May. How else can you explain Knight's defiant denial of doing anything wrong and IU' s decision to fire him. According to IU officials, there continued to be a "pattern of unacceptable behav ior" from Knight since May, but wait ... doesn't that contradict the university's "ZERO-tolerance" policy? If so, why wasn't Knight removed from his post long ago?

►KNIGHT From Page 8 say about him. "Coach Knight ... he was a good ... well, he was, you know ... he liked basketball, and he was ... an animated coach. He was Coach Knight, you know, and I think he ' ll be missed ... if not by the media and fans, then by his family ... well, some of his family ... his mom, maybe." But the saddest thing about a ll of this is not that an era has ended at Indiana, but that another one might begin somewhere e lse. I don't know if Knight is ready to throw in the towel yet. And as controversial as he might be, there's surely a small school some where that would take a chance on him. You see, Knight just hap-

pens to be 116 wins behind Dean Smith, the all-time win ningest basketball coach in college history . Smith, who racked up 879 wins with the University of North Carolina, is highly regarded as the nicest man to ever draw a play-diagram. If Knight could stick around for seven or eight more years with a semi -successful team, he could overtake Smith. And of all the things Knight has done over the years, that would be the ugliest scar he could leave on college basket ball. It would further support the notion that nice guys always finish last. Or second anyway.

told the court. "I just blacked out. I didn't know if I hurt anybody. I feel really bad about that." Strawberry was released from jail Tuesday, slipping out a side door to avoid crowds. Faster was the judge who placed the suspended eighttime All-Star on probation last year in a drug and solicitation case. Prosecutors requested house arrest, although Strawberry could have been sent to prison. Assistant State Attorney Robin Fuson said that Strawberry will still have to face the misdemeanor charges from Monday's accident driving under the influence and leaving the scene of the accident - as separate crimes that could bring additional punishment.

Former coach approves ban of NCAA gambling LAURENCE ARNOLD

AssociatedPress WASHJNGTON (AP) Dean Smith, college basketball's career victory leader, sought another win Tuesday by endorsing an effort in Congress to outlaw gambling on collegiate sports. "We're talking about something that can taint young people," said Smith, who retired in 1997 after 36 seasons and 879 victory at th University of North Carolina. He said he is not troubled by the fact that the legislation would affect only Nevada, the one state where betting on college sports is legal. "It can't hurt anybody in Vegas," he said. Casinos "can still take (bets on) the pro games. It isn't like they aren't making enough money." Lawmakers who support the betting ban brought Smith to Capitol Hill in hopes of gaining some end-of-session momentum for legislation in both chambers. The Senate Commerce Committee approved the ban in April, but it has not come up for a vote on the floor. The House Judiciary Committee will consider the legislation on Wednesday. Referring to the millions of dollars given by the gambling industry to both parties, Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., said the bill is threatened only because of "the influence of big money in American politics." Still, Sen. Sam Brownback, R-Kan., said he has been assured by .Majority Leader Trent Lott of Mississippi that the bill's supporters will get a chance this year to muster 60 votes to break a certain filibuster by Nevada's senators. Sen. Richard Bryan, DNev., warned gambling advocates in his state recently that the ban would likely pass by a veto-proof majority if it gets to a vote on the floor. A sponsor of the bill in the House, Rep. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., said he is certain at least 300 of the 435 representatives would support it. Smith is one of several high-profile college coaches enlisted by the National Collegiate Athletic Association, a major force behind the bill. Kentucky basketball coach Tubby Smith and South Carolina football coach Lou Holtz testified during a House Judiciary Committee hearing in June that players are under pressure to lose games or shave points from a victory margin. Defenders of Nevada's sports-betting industry say 99 percent of gambling on college sports occurs illegally on college campuses rather than legally in Nevada casinos. The legislation, they say, would harm Nevada without making a dent in a national problem . Frank Fahrenkopf]r., who lobbies on behalf of casinos as president of the American Gaming Association, said Congress "should reject this 'feel-g ood ' legislation that would shut down a legitimate, legal bu siness in one state ." The Nevada gambling industry took in $2.3 billion in sports wagers in fiscal 1999, with 30 per cent to 40 percent bet on college sports.

Nice compromise, Aggie TV The availability of free movies at the click of a remote is fabulous, but little kids tuning in to "Silence of the Lambs" is a problem. On the other hand, students aren't generally thrilled to sit down to "The Fox and the Hound." For a long time, Aggie Television, which offers· free movies to student-housing residents, has been battling with this dilemma.

Meanwhile on domestic policy issues, they endorse new spending and regulations like drunken liberals while their inner conservative surely writhes in agony.

On social issues, Republican leaders pretend to be hard-

He also, on allJublic evidence, has inherite his father's WASP values, under which a general obligation to treat people decently is very important, but particular ideological passions are vulgar and boring. Who can believe that such a person would

have any sincere objection to simply meeting a group of equally nice, well-brought-up Republicans because they were gay? But he fabricated an objection and then had to fabricate a small moral -awakening to get out of it.

After about 30 years in locker rooms around the country I can say that yes, for sure, you bet we are. I surely am. I still have to slap myself sometimes when I start to laugh at a reafly fat person in a locker room. Huh? Those are exactly the people that should be here, not the buffed Bowflex (Tm) showoffs. We men are just full of contradictions. All men's locker rooms have scales and men use them at least as much as women. The difference is that women blame themselves for weight gain while men blame the equipment. Yes, it is true. The fraternal aerobic lodge that I most often frequent has three scales and I have often seen men test all three out to seek either a statistical average or simply the lowest reading. "Hey, wait. Wasn't there a solar flare yesterday? Everybody knows that solar flares can affect the Earth's gravitational field." "What? This can't be right.

programs hired Swango after ne told them he was a convicted felon. After concluding their murder investigation ana dismissing him from their program, doctors at Ohio State wrote glowing reviews on his behalf. Swango's medical career continued in Illinois, Virginia, South Dakota, New York and finally Zimbabwe. He was en route to yet another job, at a hospital in Saudi Arabia, in 1997 when he was arrested at O'Hare airport. After Swango's past was discovered, usually by local media, and Swango was hurriedly dismissed amid public outcries, hospitals conducted failed internal investigations and rushed to reassurethe public. The Veterans Hospital at Northport, Long Island,

announced in 1993, one week after Swango was dismissed, that "no suspicious illnesses or deaths" had been there. This is the same hospital where Swango has now confessed to murdering three patients and sending another into a coma. Perhaps the most egregious behavior by doctors and hospita I officials was at Ohio State, which officially exonerated Swango and wrote into one of his victims' medical records that she was "paranoid" for claiming a doctor had tried to kill her. She miraculously survived, and Swango has admitted injecting a paralyzing drug into her IV line. Swango has also confessed

appeared in September 11th's issue?Aside from being the worst batch of writing I have ever read, it was replete with blatant errors. As an editor, I think you should know that a question ends with a question mark (?) and not a period. Also, the correct usage of quotation marks is absolutely vital. In addition, the word "your" is a possessivepronoun denoting ownership, not to be confused with the contraction "you're", which combines the words "you" and "iJ.rt:", Even though this is college newspaper run primarily by students, it is of utmost importance to make sure that errors like these are avoided. My problem wasn't with Mr. Timothy's subject matter. Someone can voice a wrong opinion yet at the same time write a valid argument. However, this was not the case with his column. His arguments were extremely weak,

they were poorly supported, and quite honestly, many of them did not make sense. My advice to you, the editor, is two-fold. First, I would suggesthaving Mr. Timothy enroll in some sort of writing class. If I am not mistaken, the writing center in the Ray B. West Building has paid tutors, which could help him learn proper syntax, correct grammar and sentence structure, and how to make smooth transitions. My second·suggestion would be to pay a little closer attention to detail. Mistakes like the one in Monday's issue shouldn't happen, even in a college newspaper. I wouldn't even expect it in a junior high school newspaper. Don't think we don't notice "little things" like this. We do. If I were the editor of this paper, I would be completely embarrassed.

wrench? I could fix this myself." For men, finding the right scale is the physiofogical equivalent to thinking that turning back the odometer on a rust-pocked car actually makes it newer. You can take off your tie, remove the pens from your pocket and slide out of your shirt and pants in a haples~; strip tease to your vanity, but it won't alter reality. I have found that most men actually prefer to weight themselves with their clothes on so that any gains can be blamed on the 10-pound shoes they wore that day or the 4 pounds of change they got at the grocery store.

I just don't need to see naked people talking on cell phones. What could be so urgent? Where do you clip the phone when you are finished with the call? I also thought it was gaudy overkill that you could watch television from the comfort of the marble-lined hot tub at this spa. Men's locker rooms have too many mirrors. My sense is that women are either more modest or more realistic. Speaking of realism, let's just set the record straight: Spandex only gives you the illusion that your body hasn't changed. Spandex is sort of the duct tape of the athletic world. It will hold everything together for a little while, but eventually it comes undone and you have to make permanent repairs.

From Page 12 to murdering a 19-year-old gymnast who was a patient at Ohio State, and will plead guilty to murder in Ohio later this month. Yet police say Ohio State was uncooperative with their investigation. There is no simpfe explanation of how Swango could have gotten away with so sinister a career for so long. Fear of litigation, scandal and potential liability often seemed more important to other doctors and hospital officials than patient safety. The fraternity of doctors often rallied around Swango, forming a "white wall of (L) silence" that makes the police "blue wall" seem porous by comparison. The culture of the medical profession won't change because of one case. But remedies to protect the public seem relatively simple. The National Practitioner Data Bank was established during the Reagan administration to monitor incompetent physicians and prevent them from being hired. Unfortunately, it has been an abject failure, as the Swango case makes clear. As best I can tell (with minor exceptions, the data bank is accessible only to other doctors and hospital officials), Swango's name never appeared in the data bank. According to a Department of Health and Human Services report, 75 percent of all U.S. hospitals never have reported an adverse action against any physician, as mandated by law. This is hardly surprising, since the

law contains no meaningful penalty for failure to comply and has met with unrelenting hostility from organized medicine. Opening the data bank to public scrutiny, increasing penalties for noncompliance and expanding the scope of its coverage to include information about criminal convictions would go far to restore the trust patients should be able to have in their doctors. I have tremendous admiration for doctors and other members of the health care professions, and I have heard from many who genuinely care about patient welfare, security and trust. They are as baffled as I am by organized medicine's opposition. On Thursday, Rep. Thomas J. Bliley Jr., RVa., chairman of the House Commerce Committee, introduced a bill called "the patient protection act" to reform the data bank by making its information publicly available and expanding its coverage to include felony convictions. Hearings are scheduled for the week of Sept. 18. I hope it will attract wide bipartisan support. Swango, as a doctor and suspected serial killer, is obviously an extreme aberration. But data show that serial killings in general, and in hospitals in particular, have increased exponentially in this country since 1970. This isn't a time for finger-pointing, but for taking the steps necessary to make certain that future Swangos never find their way into the nation's hospitals.

·------------------~ Reno at large: Trade war always beats a real one ~

~INSIGHT Robert Reno,Newsday Even as the United States plotted last week to escalate a trade war with its h istorical allies in the European Union, Congress was rushing toward approval of a historic trade rapprochement with the People' s Republic of China. Friends pulling hair while enemies slobber all over each other - has the world gone historically mad? More likely, it has become an infinitely saner place. Imagine that the 21st century will be an era in which nations compete through nasty trade disputes, laboriously refereed by the boring global trade bureaucrats at the World Trade Organization. Picture China itself as the next trade batt leground when it finally joins the WTO and it's forced to trade by the world ' s rules. Then look at the recent festivities at the United Nations , where U .S. and

European leaders grinned fraternally at each other even as their trade representatives were at each other's throats. If trade is the new face of war, does anybody want to exchange the new circumstances for the nationa l competitions that in the 20th century produced the horrors of two world wars, cycles of genocide, repeated v iolent revolution and a SOyear nuclear standoff? It isn't a close call. Even the raving bands of anti-global ists who trashed the WTO meeting in Seattle and the World Bank meet ing in Washington are passing nuisances compared with the conflict-sett ling methods of the 20th century . I can't help being encouraged by the prospect that the WTO wi ll become this nationality-spannin g, redtape spinn ing monster to which the wor ld will take the tensions and grievances formerly settled by bloodshed and destruction. A competitive world racing for higher living standards and trade advantage seems a vast improvement over one that concentrated on try ing to blow itself up.

►PRETENDERS

F--romPage 12 tended to share the views of the religious right. Abortion is an even better example. Raise your hand if you think that George W. Bush - or George H.W. Bush or Trent Lott or tne Speaker of the House - actually believes that abortion is the murder of an innocent child. But they feel they must pretend to believe it. Then they must try to explain why the murder of innocent children should not be a "litmus test" for admission to their party's "big tent." It cannot be done. As with gay rights, a double pretense - abortion is murder, but that's OK - gets them pretty close to where their sincere beliefs might bring them anyway. But the round trip must be tiring for those with any capacity for reflection . Listening to Republicans wax enthusiastic about new regulations on HMOs or a prescription drug subsidy program for seniors, you might suppose that the Republican-controlled Congress would be pushing for tnings like this even if tne Democratic Party didn't exist. Who believes that? The Republicans tend to clothe their ideological nakedness with a lot of talk about privatization, using market forces, or

simply doing it smaller. They also claim to be doing it better, and they may be right in some cases. But this doesn't explain why they're doing it at all, or relieve the near-certain suspicion that in their hearts they'd rather not. Well, so what? Hypocritical posturing greasesthe wheels of change. If you favor HMO regulation, isn't insincere support better than sincere opposition? Maybe factual honesty is enough to ask from politicians. Forget the fancier stuff. Or, to put it another way, maybe John Mitchel I ("Watch what we do, not what we

say") had a better philosophy than George Bush the Elder (" Read my lips") . And yes, of course, disingenuousness is not a Republican monopoly. The Democratic candidate, Al Gore, is disingenuous in his new role as a fire-breathing us-against-them populist. (Either that or he was disingenuous during his entire previous political career as a selfdescribed "raging moderate.") Politicians of all stripes reposition themselves w ithin their slice of the pol itical spectrum as the demands of national vs. local office, or primaries vs. general elections, dictate.

SAN FRA.i'JCISCO - Motel handyman Cary Stayner has agreed to plead guilty to the murder of a Yosemite naturalist in a deal that will spare him a federal execution, but he still faces a possible death sentence if convicted of killing three sightseers. The plea is scheduled to be entered vVednesday afternoon in federal court in Fresno before Judge Anthony \V Ishii. In exchange, Stayner will be sentenced at a later date to life in prison without parole, federal law enforcement sources told The Associated Press on Tuesday on condition of anonymity. Stayner, 39, initially pleaded innocent to charges of kidnapping, attempted sexual assault and murder in the July 21, 1999, death of Joie Armstrong, who led children on nature hikes. The case was being prosecuted in federal court because she was killed in Yosemite National Park. A change of venue had been granted and a trial date set for April 10. U.S. Attorney Paul Seave and Assistant Federal Defender Robert Rainwater did

Sund-Pelosso murders. Carole Carrington, Mrs. Sund's mother, said Tuesday she was surprised prosecutors agreed to the guilty plea in Armstrong's murder, since they were pushing for the death penalty. But she is relieved the state's case can proceed sooner. "I'd like to get it going," she said in a telephone interview from her Eureka ranch. "I just hope they have it all figured out now." Relatives of the Sunds and Pelossos are mixed about whether they want a death sentence. Carrington said she and her husband, Francis, would be satisfied if Stayner gets a parallel sentence of life in prison without parole. Raquel and Pepe Pelosso, Silvina's parents, oppose the death penalty. Stayner, who according to sources has confessed to single-handedly killing all four women, has been in custody since his arrest three days after Armstrong was killed. He is being held in isolation at the Fresno County Jail. Delbert Stayner said he and his wife, Kay, visit their son weekly, and that the government's agreement to drop its demands for the death penalty answered their prayers.

""'

not immediately return phone calls for comment. Lesli Armstrong, who has said publicly that she would prefer not to sit through a trial and hear the details of her daughter's murder, could not immediately be reached. She is expected to attend Wednesday's hearing. Prosecutors considered the sentiments of the Armstrong family in agreeing to drop their pursuit of a death sentence in return for the plea, according to a federal source. The plea bargain will not affect the state's plan to seek the death penalty against Stayner in the murders of Carole Sund, 42, her daughter Juli, 15, and family friend Silvina Pelosso, 16, of Cordoba, Argentina. The three wornen were killed five months before Armstrong, during a sightseeing trip to Yosemite National Park. They had been staying at the Cedar Lodge in El Portal, where Stayner lived and worked. Mariposa County prosecutors, who had unsuccessfully appealed to Attorney General Janet Reno for the right to proceed first with their case, can go forward once Stayner is formally sentenced on the federal charges. No pleas have been entered and no hearing dates set in the
