KU students and faculty gathered early Satur-
day morning to raise money for AIDS research
and those with AIDS. They participated in the
14th annual AIDS awareness walk, which was put
on by the Douglas County AIDS Project.
Saturdays event,
called Hitting the
Bricks to Stop AIDS,
had about 300 par-
ticipants walking in
teams or individually.
Six teams were from
the University. There
was a team from
Queers and Allies and
one from the School
of Social Welfare, in-
cluding faculty, retired
faculty and doctoral
students. There also
were teams from the
School of Psychology,
Ellsworth Hall, the theatre department and the
Society of Open-Minded Atheists and Agnostics.
Queers and Allies thinks its really important
to get involved in not just campus events, but
community events as well, director Shannon
Reid, Lawrence junior, said. HIV affects a lot
of people, and a large part of that is in the queer
community. This event is something weve sup-
ported over the years because of that.

A homeless man handed the
paper to Colleen Skaggs, I hope
I was helpful, he said as he
handed the survey to her.
The survey, conducted un-
der the social welfare class Ad-
vanced Communication and
Advocacy Practice, focused on
the options that Lawrence pro-
vides for the homeless. The class
of 17 students, taught by Helen
Hartnett, assistant professor of
social welfare, helped students
grasp a better understanding of
the homeless.
Skaggs, Lawrence graduate
student, said that the homeless
liked knowing they were helping
them with education.
This has been a great experi-
ence for students, myself and fel-
low researcher, Toni Johnson, and
the people who have participat-
ed, she said. It has provided a
hands-on opportunity to practice
and to share stories with people
the students may not have had
contact with in another way.
The survey in part was con-
ducted because a report named
Lawrence the second meanest
city to the homeless in the Unit-
ed States. The title was given in
an annual survey, which was re-
leased in January 2006, conduct-
ed by the National Coalition for
the Homeless and the National
Law Center on Homelessness
and Poverty.
We want to get their opinion
of how Lawrence treats them
and respond to their needs, said
Carla Wozniak, Chicago, Ill.,
graduate student.
The survey was held at three
different times
in the Lawrence
Public Library.
The fnal survey
was done Satur-
day.
So far, the
class has re-
ceived positive
responses.
They have
been very will-
ing to help out,
Skaggs said. Weve had the op-
portunity to meet with these peo-
ple and talk with them.
The class also brought various
items to give the homeless after
they flled out the survey. Items
include socks, batteries, radios,
bus passes and water bottles.
At frst the incentives were a
concern because the students
wanted to give participants
something they would use. We
wanted to give them choices and
provide things that maybe the
shelter doesnt have for them,
Krista Lee, Topeka graduate stu-
dent, said.
Instead of just proving that
January survey was wrong, the
class wanted to promote com-
munity awareness.
We want to give a voice to the
people that are affected and take
the information and advocate
public concern, said Rachael
Nickerson, Shawnee graduate
student.
Wozniak said
that the survey
provided a great
way to take ac-
tion and apply
theories to the
real world.
Were able
to put into prac-
tice what were
learning in the
classroom, said
Stephanie Sherode, Salina grad-
uate student.
Results of the survey as a
whole will not be ready until
the end of May. The class can-
not comment yet on any of their
fndings.
Not only do the students ben-
eft and learn, Skaggs said this
really put things in perspective.
Plus, she said, its nice to
get out of the classroom, too.

The Saudi Arabians had food sam-
pling and traditional foor seating
with pillows, the Iranians had a try-
on-a-head scarf table, the Taiwanese
showed some of the most spectacu-
lar traditions and landmarks through
a series of posters and the Paraguay-
ans taught about Yerba Mate.
Those were just a few of the high-
lights of the International Student
Associations annual World Expo
on Friday afternoon at the Ballroom
in the Kansas Union. University of
Kansas students, children, Lawrence
High School students and Lawrence
community members were some of
the people who attended the fve
hour exhibition.
People have been enjoying com-
ing to see things from all over the
world, said Horacio Vargas, La Paz,
Bolivia, sophomore. I love helping
and interacting with people from all
over the world.
Vargas said the World Expo was the
main reason he joined ISA. He said
it was a unique opportunity to share
his culture with the world and to learn
about others. He said hed been at
the expo for the entire time and had
enjoyed wandering around to other
exhibits just as much as staying at the
Bolivia table. He was playing a mini-
guitar from Brazil as he talked.

are sprouting out of the ground
to complement the season. The
Pelathe Community Resource
Center food pantry will be of-
fering fresh produce for many
low-income families around
town because of the new pro-
duce, all thanks to a group of
KU students.

adult diapers found
near Wisconsin road
MOUNT PLEASANT, Wis.
A small stretch of this
Wisconsin village might want
to change its name to Mount
Unpleasant now that the dia-
per dumper has struck again.
Residents along Braun Road
report 12 to 15 used adult dia-
pers have shown up in a grassy
ditch, apparently dumped in
the middle of the night. Similar
activity had been reported to
The Journal Times of Racine in
January before it stopped.
Police havent received any
reports about the latest inci-
dents, Lt. Wally Sparks said.
The road is near Interstate
94, providing quick access and
escape for whoever dumps the
diapers, he said. He said there
was little police could do, un-
less a witness can provide a
vehicle description or license
plate number.

Car stereo in n.Y.
packs explosive bass
NEW YORK Thats one
booming stereo.
The police bomb squad,
responding Friday to a call of
a suspicious device inside a
parked minivan in midtown
Manhattan, blew out the
vehicles windows only to
fnd out the item inside was
simply stereo equipment,
police said.
The incident occurred
when police received a 911
call from a passer-by who
spotted the device inside a
red minivan parked outside
4 E. 67th St., said police
spokesman Dennis Laffn.
It was a canister about the
size of two shoe boxes, with
a digital display of changing
numbers and some loose
wires visible.
It looked suspicious, Laffn
said. I think anyone would
have thought something was
strange.
The police bomb squad
responded after the 8:22
a.m. call, blowing out three
side windows and the back
window with a water pro-
pelled charge, Laffin said at
the scene. The vans owner,
a Bronx resident, has yet to
hear the bad news about his
windows.

Teachers put futures in

LITTLE ROCK The Arkan-

doesnt encourage its mem-

But that changed this week,
thanks to a typo.
The retirement system sent
out letters to retirees and ac-
tive teachers explaining how
to name benefciaries in the
event of their death, said Da-
vid Malone, the associations
executive director.
Some of the pages in the
letter listed the correct toll-
free number associated with
the program, he said. But
one page listed a toll-free
number that brought callers
to a recording of a seductive
womans voice, promoting a
69-cents per minute foot fetish
sex line.
Weve had a few calls
about it, Malone said. Most
everybodys been pretty good
natured.
The letter with the wrong
telephone number went out to
about 50,000 system members.
Another 50,000 will get letters
with only the correct number.

The Kansas Board of Regents es-
tablished the KU School of Medi-
cine. The four-year School of Med-
icine was a merge of the two-year
medical school that was already
part of the Mount Oread campus
and three schools already in exis-
tence in Kansas City. Chancellor
Strong said the school would be
the best medical school between
Chicago and San Francisco.

Before the KU on Wheels bus
system, students used to wait for
the KU Loop, which was part of
a system of streetcars that once oc-
cupied Lawrence for 23 years. Just
a year after the system of electric
streetcars was running through
Lawrence, the KU Loop was
added to help the students get up
the hill for just fve cents a ride.
The streetcars had been a
part of Lawrence transporta-
tion since the 1870s, but the cars
were pulled by mules and hors-
es before the electric power. It
was not only a better way to get
to campus than walking in the
snow; it provided jobs for many
KU students. Students could be
conductors for 17 cents an hour.
Besides jobs, it also provided
entertainment for campus prank-
sters. Students stole the KU letters
that decorated the cars, rocked
the car, disconnected the trolley
from the overhead wires, jumped
on for free rides and committed
other small acts of vandalism.
The streetcar system did not
last long in Lawrence. Most of the
tracks were abandoned or ripped
up to be replaced by a bus system.

At 10:38 p.m. the University
of Kansas Union roared with the
sound of an explosion. It started
in a sixth foor womens restroom
and raged in the upper stories for
hours causing about $1 million in
damages.
Bill Rowlands was the night
manager on duty at the Union and
discovered the fre. He said, It
sounded like a light bulb explod-
ing and I ran upstairs. I think that
everyone in the building noticed
the smoke about the same time
and evacuated the building.
About 100 students helped
the Lawrence Fire Department
fght the fre that went about 30
feet into the air above the Union.
The fre was attributed to arson
during what was later called the,
Days of Rage in Lawrence.
The Days of Rage included
two other frebomb attacks on a
furniture store and a fraternity.
There were several other incidents
that included protests, sniper fre
and racial confrontations.
No one was ever convicted of
arson for the fre at the union. A
curfew was put in place for four
days in Lawrence for the protec-
tion of KU students and Law-
rence residents. Several arrests
were made including the stu-
dent body president. The spring
semester ended early and fnal
examinations were canceled,
but the violence did not cease.

A memorial service for
Robert Brawley, professor of
painting, will be held today
in Baldwin. The service will
be at 4 p.m. today on the
Graber Farm,
938 E. 1700
Road.
Brawley
died in Over-
land Park
Friday after
a six-month
battle with
cancer.
The 68-year-
old professor
had been a member of the
KU faculty since 1988 and
served as the chair of the art
department for fve years. He
earned his Bachelor of Fine
Arts and Master of Fine Arts
from the San Francisco Art
Institute.
In a press release Friday,
Judith McCrea, chairwoman
of the department of art, said
Brawleys work was hyperre-
alistic because of his choos-
ing objects with complex
narratives implications and
symbolism.
He was a highly respected
teacher and intellectual
whose knowledge of art re-
fected in widespread pur-
suits in philosophy, theory
and art criticism. He will be
greatly missed, she said.
His work has been in
more than 18 public mu-
seum exhibits, including
the National Museum of
American Art in Washington,
D.C., and the Nelson-Atkins
Museum of Art in Kansas
City, Mo.
Brawley is survived by
his wife, Judith Cramer; two
sons; a daughter; a sister;
two brothers; six grandchil-
dren and a great-grandson.

Low survey response
worries Ku Libraries
A low number of under-
graduate students have
responded to a survey sent
out by KU Libraries.
Stella Bentley, dean of
libraries, sent the LibQUAL+
survey on April 10 to all
graduate students, faculty
and staff, and to 3,000 ran-
domly selected undergradu-
ate students to ask them
various questions about the
libraries. The survey must
be completed by April 28.
Only 63 undergraduates
had responded as of last
week, compared to 373
graduate students, 159 fac-
ulty members and 136 staff
members.
The last time KU Libraries
sent out the survey, in 2003,
more undergraduates, 241,
responded than the other
groups.
Only 156 graduate stu-
dents responded to that
survey, while the faculty
and staff numbers remained
about the same as this
years totals so far.
It might seem like just an-
other survey at a time when
several other campus orga-
nizations are sending yearly
e-mail surveys out, but Bill
Myers, assessment coordi-
nator for KU Libraries, said
that the libraries made much
of their decisions based on
the results of the survey,
and that if undergraduates
didnt respond, their voice
wouldnt be heard.
Myers said that since the
last time KU Libraries sent
out an LibQUAL+ survey, the
libraries had made major
changes as a direct result
of the input.
The changes included
adding 200 computer
workstations and 60 wire-
less laptops, redesigning
the librarys Web site and
increasing the collections
budget by $1.4 million.

Accused
killer planned

Memorial service to be held at 4 p.m. today
By Sean Murphy
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
PURCELL, Okla. The
man accused of killing a 10-
year-old neighbor girl for an
elaborate plan to eat human
fesh joked about cannibalism
on his online diary, discussed
the effects of not taking his
anti-depression medication
and mentioned dangerously
weird fantasies.
All he wanted in life, Kevin
Ray Underwood wrote in his
blog, was to be able to live like
a normal person.
People who knew Under-
wood described him Sunday
as a quiet, boring and seem-
ingly trustworthy young man.
His mother who lived across
town called him a wonderful
boy.
This is something that I
dont know where it came
from, Connie Underwood
said of her son through tears
in a brief telephone interview
with The Associated Press. I
would like to be able to tell her
family how sorry we are. I just
feel so terrible.
Kevin Underwood, a 26-
year-old grocery store stock-
er in this small community
40 miles south of Oklahoma
City, was arrested Friday. In-
vestigators searched his apart-
ment after he aroused their
suspicions at a checkpoint,
and found a large plastic tub
in a bedroom closet. Accord-
ing to a police affidavit, he
confessed that he killed Ja-
mie Rose Bolin, telling FBI
agents: Go ahead and arrest
me. She is in there. I chopped
her up.
Jamies unclothed body was
inside the tub, along with a tow-
el used to soak up blood, off-
cials said. Police said that, while
there were deep saw marks on
the girls neck, she had not been
dismembered.
Kevin Underwood, who is
to be formally charged with
first-degree murder Mon-
day, lived alone in an apart-
ment downstairs from the one
where Jamie lived with her
father.
Authorities believe Kevin Un-
derwood killed the girl Wednes-
day, when she disappeared after
going to a library, by beating and
smothering her.
Investigators found meat
tenderizer and barbecue skew-
ers that he planned to use on
the body, McClain County
District Attorney Tim Kuyk-
endall said.
On his blog, an online diary
that he had kept since Septem-
ber 2002, Kevin Underwood de-
scribed himself as single, bored,
and lonely, but other than that,
pretty happy.

outdoors, so this was a great
project for him, he said.
He became involved with
the project when he was ap-
proached by the director of the
KU Center for Community Out-
reach, who asked him to help.
Though he wanted to, he said
he didnt know anything about
gardening beyond the mini gar-
den he grew when he was a
kid.
He now knows how to min-
eralize the garden, set it up for
proper drainage and more. Now
that the sprouts are up, he said
he could see the work hes done
and its amazing.
There were weeds the size of
me, Proctor said about when
they started last fall.
Years ago, the Pelathe cen-
ter had a garden, but according
to Teresa Staskal, director of
the center, the garden was not
planted last year. When she was
approached by EARTH, who
wanted to take over the respon-
sibility for the garden, she was
thrilled, she said.
I thought that was a win-win
situation, she said.
The Pelathe center mostly
stocks dried, boxed and canned
goods in its food pantry, which
are given by members of the
community, or by a group who
has sponsored a food drive,
Staskal said.
The garden will add fresh
food and variety to the mun-
dane selection they have, she
said. Some farmers in the past
have donated excess produce,
and this year, the center is set-
ting up a booth at the Farm-
ers Market, starting April 29,
to collect excess produce, she
said.
The Pelathe centers food
pantry serves around 75 fami-
lies with basic food supplies in
quantities based on the num-
ber of people in the family. The
center also is hoping to eventu-
ally use the produce from the
garden for cooking classes to be
held in the center for the com-
munity.
Jamil Akram, the other co-co-
ordinator of EARTH and Kan-
sas City, Mo., senior, said that
every other weekend, four to 20
people come help with the gar-
den.
Its not EARTHs only project
though. It also is involved in the
upkeep of the Black Jack Battle-
feld in Baldwin.
What we want to do is get
people involved in environmen-
tal issues, he said. We tend to
lead by example.
He said EARTH also was
planning activities for Earth
Week, which will include a tree
planting, a lecture on how and
what to recycle and working
more on the Pelathe center gar-
den.

Expo
continued from page 1a
Flags from about 42 countries
hung over each of the tables rep-
resenting their respective coun-
tries. Many more fags stood in
the center of the room, making
the room colorful. The Univer-
sity owns fags from at least 95
percent of the worlds nations,
Vargas said, and he came in
early to help set them up in the
ballroom for the event.
Displays included clothing,
rugs, money from each country,
laptop computer slide shows
and even food samples.
The Saudi Arabian exhibit
was by far the largest display,
taking up most of the southwest
corner of the ballroom. It uti-
lized three tables and formed an
enclosure where people could
sit and try Arabian food, Saudi
traditional coffee, menthol tea,
baklava, Bassposah a sweet
corn bread and dates.
We tried to mix everything:
modern, culture, said Nassar
Alshalaan, Riyadh, Saudi Ara-
bia, graduate student. We al-
ways try to keep our heritage.
Many of the students were
dressed in a traditional bshat
cloak dress, cloth on their heads
and crowned with an iqal, a
double-coiled ring that holds
on the cloth on their heads. The
walls all around the area were
flled with posters of Mecca,
Saudi Arabian landscapes, pho-
tos from a Saudi Arabian pho-
tographer and posters that the
students had made to inform
people about their culture and
fashion. Leilah Noguer, Asun-
cion, Paraguay, senior, sat be-
hind the small Paraguay table
at the entrance to the ballroom.
She said about four students had
worked on their display, which
had brochures in English and
little fgurines to show native
clothing: white dresses with col-
ored, full skirts and lace trim.
She said her friend brought the
leather-covered thermos and a
cup made of hollowed bull horn
from home. She said she drinks
Yerba Mate tea out of one just
like it every day. The cup had a
small metal straw with a strainer
at the bottom. She poured ice wa-
ter and the herb into the cup and
the straw fltered out the leaves.
She said Paraguay was the only
nation to have Yerba Mate tra-
ditionally. Every other country
drinks Mate, which is the same
thing, but with hot water. She
brought Yerba Mate to the United
States with her, she said, because
its so expensive to buy here.
Taiwans small display of post-
ers, Chinese character cut outs
and banners made up their small
but eye-catching display. Kuorey
Mao, Taipei, Taiwan, graduate
student, said he put together the
display mostly by himself with
materials he got from the Taiwan-
ese consulate in Kansas City.
One poster had a unique coral
reef structure off a small island off
Taiwan. Though it looked man-
made because it looked like a com-
bination between a heart shape
and a guitar, he said it was a natural
landmark. Another poster showed
the Firecracker Festival, where pro-
fessional extreme sportsman climb
up wooden columns to a platform
with frecracker columns. Its a
race to light the columns frst, but
the structure is about 10 stories tall,
Mao said, so its quite a challenge.

DCAP surpassed its expecta-
tions of money that was raised
for the awareness walk. Expec-
tations were set at $12,000, but
the organization raised more
than $12,400. Starbucks won
frst place as the biggest con-
tributor.
Erin Chaput, Ellsworth Hall
resident assistant and Lawrence
junior, invited Geri Summers,
the executive director of DCAP,
to speak to some of her social
welfare classes.
Chaput thought it would be a
good idea for some residents on
her foor in Ellsworth Hall to
get involved and raise money.
Eight people who live in Ells-
worth walked and several oth-
ers donated money.
It was a diffcult process to
get some of them up at seven on
a Saturday morning, Chaput
said. But I think they all had a
fun time.
All participants were pro-
vided a free breakfast buffet
at Macelis, 1031 New Hamp-
shire St., which is where the
walk started. NetworQ, a
group that supports and edu-
cates the gay and lesbian com-
munity, put on the breakfast.
We were providing the
breakfast as a service to bring
about enthusiasm for the
walk, said Kim Kreicker,
vice chairwoman of NetworQ.
DCAP is an important organi-
zation for us.
Steve Maceli, owner of
Macelis, was more than will-
ing to help out.
Since my business has
started to grow, Ive been able
to help the group more, he
said. They have supported
me when the business was
smaller, and now I have a
banquet hall and can help
them throw better fundrais-
ers. I support the community
and the community supports
me.
DCAP was grateful that it
could use the facility. In the
past, the starting point of the
walk has been in various plac-
es around Lawrence, such as
the gazebo in South Park.
We like to have the walk
downtown, Michele Weigand,
member of the Board of Di-
rectors of DCAP, said. There
were huge benefits for us hav-
ing it at Macelis. It gave us
a place just in case it rained
and kept us downtown, which
is where we want to keep the
walk.
The route for the walk cen-
tered around downtown. Par-
ticipants could either do a
one-mile or a three-mile walk.
The three-mile walk took
walkers by historical markers
of downtown Lawrence, such
as the home of Phog Allen,
former KU basketball coach.
Overall, Summers was ec-
static about the turnout and
the money that was raised.
This walk shows we have a
community that cares for those
that have HIV and helps raise
money to support AIDS aware-
ness programs, she said. We
help support to give dollars
towards HIV testing and free
condoms.

Whats in a name? That
which we call a rose by any
other name would smell as
sweet, mused Shakespeare.
But on the same line of
thought, if you call bovine feces
a rose, would it stop reeking?
If youre guessing the answer
is no then I have to warn you
that our administration is serv-
ing us a huge bouquet of BS.
Controlling language is funda-
mental to controlling perception.
The president knows this, and at
a time when his public approval
ratings are moving as fast as gas
prices, albeit in opposite direc-
tions, hes desperate to show
some good news. This is where
the semantics become important.
One way this insidious
method is used is government
studies given to the press as
signs of the progress being
made such as Bushs wetland
initiative. By changing a few
defnitions, the perception
that problems are being fxed
can occur without all the mess
of actually fxing the prob-
lem. Last March the Interior
Departments Fish and Wildlife
Service reported the frst gain
in wetlands since the govern-
ment started keeping track a
half century ago. Wetlands are
important because they flter
pollutants, stop coastal erosion
and are an essential habitat to
many animals.
Great news, right? Nope, the
only change was the defnition
of wetlands. The defnition was
expanded to include things
such as water hazards on golf
courses and nearly anything
else moist. What an appropriate
idea from a man who wanted
to replace the Clean Air Act
with the Clear Sky initiative
that would have allowed 20
more tons of mercury into the
environment each year. I guess
its healthy if we dont see it.
It has gotten so bad that sci-
entists have had to start protest-
ing. The Union of Concerned
Scientists, which includes No-
bel laureates, National Medal
of Science recipients, former
senior advisers to administra-
tions of both parties, numer-
ous members of the National
Academy of Sciences and other
well-known researchers, wrote
that the Bush administration
committed widespread and un-
precedented manipulation of
the process through which sci-
ence enters into its decisions.
President Bush uses the same
technique during controversy.
He wasnt illegally spying with
warrantless wiretaps. He au-
thorized a terrorist surveillance
program. Social Security reform
is no longer about private ac-
counts but instead the more
lovable personal accounts.
Iraq has secular violence a
very different view than Iraqs
former Prime Minister, Ayad
Allawi, who told the BBC, If
this is not civil war, then God
knows what civil war is. The
only real differences, of course,
are the words.
The president may be one of
the most impressive wordsmiths
of his generation. Adored by
his fans for his innovation
and untraditional approach to
language, he now has branched
out and paints a verbal picture
with such visual imagery that
he puts Clintons defnition
of is to shame. I only wish
that we could get a real leader
who had enough courage and
respect for the American people
to tell us when a rose is actually
a rose and not a steaming pile
of manure.

Rising gas prices arent the
only concern for commuter
students at the University.
For the second year in a
row, the cost of a parking
permit has increased. It will
cost $160 to park in a yellow
lot beginning next fall. Thats
$20, or 22 percent, more than
it cost this academic year.
Whats more alarming is that
the new rate is twice what it
cost to park on campus two
years ago.
The Parking Department
announced last spring that
a rate increase was likely to
begin affecting parking rates
in fall 2005, and it delivered
on that. The increase was
needed, it said, to construct a
new Park & Ride lot on West
Campus and to provide main-
tenance for existing parking
lots. When questioned about
raising rates more gradually
over several years, the depart-
ment said a quick increase
would allow them to better
meet maintenance demands
and debt could be dealt with
more quickly.
But rates are already increas-
ing again. History indicates that
parking rates increase about ev-
ery four or fve years, a fact that
parking department director
Donna Hultine pointed out in
a letter to The University Daily
Kansan when the fall 2005 rate
increase was announced. Hul-
tine said the newest increase is
meant to cover the growing cost
of Park & Ride, a service not all
students use. The department
did not communicate that it
planned to increase rates again
so quickly.
Such a large increase in such
a short amount of time is bound
to effect students. The cost
of attending the University is
constantly increasing and with
other necessities, including
parking, rising in cost as well,
something is bound to give.
Students have to budget more
carefully, work more instead of
studying and perhaps take out
larger loans.
It is important to accom-
modate the increasing demand
for parking on campus while
also maintaining the current
parking infrastructure. At the
same time, the Parking Depart-
ment needs to decide how and
when increases are going to
occur so students can prepare
themselves.
The Parking Department
must fnd the resources to pro-
vide parking for the University,
but it needs to keep in mind
what expenses, other than a
parking permit, students must
bear.

Religious criticism is necessary
t letter to the editor
One thing that I took away from
my Science Wars class was: when
encountering scientifc studies, you
must remember that most research
is funded or completed by an
organization with a specifc desired
outcome. Erin Wisdom provides
overwhelming evidence swaying
her argument toward the right to
life argument without giving the
choice stance a fghting chance.
Even as we look at the termi-
nology of the right to life move-
ment we see that in our society
there is overwhelming power
assigned to the word life. Choice
stands as the antithesis of the
right to life movement, and as
it assumes this position the word
automatically takes on a negative
connotation. Choice does not
mean anti-life and it does not
mean anti-religion. Choice means
the ability to decide when, how
many, and if you want to have
children.
The mixed messages we receive
in sex education and socialization
concerning our sexuality and our
reproductive systems coupled with
the shame that society places on
asserting control over our own
futures and our own bodies is
outstanding. Wisdoms piece cites
mental instability and physical
harm as side effects of abortion.
Sonograms and statistics from the
Mayo clinic force us to assign a
fetus human status and to assume
a submissive, self-sacrifcing role
placing our health, needs and
desires in a secondary role.
What the article does not state
will hurt women the most. Yeah,
women deserve better than abor-
tion. But what is the anti-choice
movement doing to prevent preg-
nancy in the frst place? Instead
of putting an ideological band-aid
on the issue of abortion we need
to address WHY it is women are
utilizing these services. If we really
want to reduce the numbers of
abortions being performed, we
need to engage preventative mea-
sures through which we educate
and create access to methods that
would prevent pregnancy. Wisdom
states that 27 percent of abor-
tions end in infection, but fails to
remind the reader that because
abortions are performed in safe,
clean, medically sanctioned condi-
tions they are safer than wisdom
tooth extraction. We should value
womens lives enough to not allow
our government to restrict access
to abortion.

I am writing in response to the
article, Choice of a Lifetime,
written by Erin Wisdom in The
University Daily Kansan on Thurs-
day, April 13. This article was not
a news item; it was strongly biased
toward pro-life political ends. To
publish such an article as news
and not as an editorial piece does
not demonstrate the journalistic
integrity that is expected from
our university newspaper. I am
disappointed that the editorial staff
allowed such propaganda to be
published under the guise of fair
and balanced reporting.

It is about time someone
spoke out against the discrimi-
natory practices of the Catho-
lic Church. As a victim of 11
years of parochial schooling, I
witnessed how backwards and
outdated the church can be.
More people should criticize
an institution that condemns
women in the priesthood, pre-
marital sex, and homosexuality.
I would not call San
Franciscos response to the
Catholic Churchs stance on
gay adoption hateful and
discriminatory rhetoric, as a
columnist in The University
Daily Kansan claims. Instead,
I would call it well-deserved.
The Catholic Church tries too
hard to control the thoughts
and actions of its followers
around the world. They call
for a clear reduction in free-
thinking.
Instead of following the
commands of an elected pope,
Catholics should form their
own interpretations of the
Bible. And I dont mean inter-
pret it word for word, but look
at the morals of the teachings.
After all, you cant analyze a
text written more than 2,000
years ago and expect it to
apply perfectly to modern so-
ciety. Plus, the Bible has been
rewritten many times since
the apostles wrote it. It would
have been extremely easy
to slip in a bad word or two
against a minority group.
More importantly, the
Vatican should stop trying
to infuence the laws of the
United States. Our constitu-
tion clearly dictates that there
should be an absolute separa-
tion of church and state. Why
then, does a certain president
use his personal religious
beliefs to support political
agendas?
I would like to pose a fnal
question for the writer of
the commentary. Were those
your opinions expressed in
your column, or those of your
priest?

ffth mad cow
t war on terror
Civilian deaths from conflict spark probe
By RoB Gillies
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
TORONTO Canada con-
frmed a case of mad cow disease
on Sunday at a farm in British
Columbia the countrys ffth
case since May 2003, when the
United States closed its border
to Canadian beef.
The Canadian Food Inspec-
tion Agency announced Thurs-
day it had a suspected case of
bovine spongiform encephalop-
athy, or BSE.
In humans, meat products
contaminated with BSE has
been linked to more than
150 deaths, mostly in Britain,
from variant Creutzfeldt-Ja-
kob Disease, a rare and fatal
nerve disease.
The 6-year-old cow was iden-
tifed on a Fraser Valley farm
through the national BSE sur-
veillance program. It is the ffth
case in Canada since May 2003,
when the U.S. border was closed
to Canadian beef after the sick
cows were detected in Canada.
In a written statement, the
inspection agency said the case
would have no bearing on the
safety of Canadian beef, be-
cause no part of the animal en-
tered the human food or animal
feed systems.
Inspectors have tested
roughly 100,000 animals since
Canadas frst case was detected
in Alberta and have said they
expect to fnd isolated cases of
the disease.
It is second animal born after
a 1997 ban on cattle feed to test
positive for mad cow.
A cow from an Alberta farm
tested positive for the disease
in January.
The cows age raises ques-
tions about the effectiveness of
the ban, because the disease is
believed to spread only when
cattle eat feed containing cer-
tain tissues from infected cattle.
Cattle protein was commonly
added to cattle feed to speed
growth until Canada and the
United States banned the
practice in 1997.
It could indicate a lack of
compliance with the ban by Ca-
nadian feed plants or farmers.
I dont think it overly raises
concerns, said George Luter-
bach, a veterinary official with
the Canadian Food Inspection
Agency. Our investigation
has not found that there has
been any substantive lack of
compliance.
Trade in cows younger than
30 months, as well as meat, re-
sumed last July with the United
States. The younger animals are
believed to be at lower risk for
the disease.
Canada has invited the
United States to participate
in the epidemiological inves-
tigation of the latest case, and
the U.S. Agriculture Depart-
ment planned to send an ani-
mal health expert to Canada
on Monday.
U.S. Agriculture Secretary
Mike Johanns said he did not
anticipate a change in status in
trade between the countries.
It is important to note that
Canadas monitoring system
identifed this animal as one
that should be removed from
the food and feed supply chain,
ensuring food safety continues
to be protected, Johanns said
in a statement.

KABUL, Afghanistan U.S.-
led coalition forces using war-
planes and artillery clashed with
a small band of militants holed
up in a house and a cave com-
plex in eastern Afghanistan in
fghting that killed seven Afghan
civilians and wounded three,
the military said Sunday.
The U.S. military launched
an investigation into the deaths
inficted during an operation
involving 2,500 Afghan and co-
alition forces to counter an up-
surge in attacks by Taliban-led
militants.
The clash happened late Sat-
urday in the Korangal Valley
in the eastern Kunar province
bordering Pakistan after Ameri-
can troops retaliated against an
attack launched by eight to 10
militants fring small arms and
rocket-propelled grenades, U.S.
military spokes-
man Maj. Matt
Ha c k a t h o r n
said.
U.S. sol-
diers on the
ground called
in warplanes
and artillery to
target militants
sheltering in a
house and near-
by cave. Several
militants were killed while the
rest sought coverage in a com-
pound housing civilians.
Our surveillance indicated
that there was a house with a
cave nearby and that the insur-
gents were going back and forth
between both, so we suppressed
the area with a combined arms
assault of close air support, ar-
tillery and di-
rect fre, Hack-
athorn said.
But once we
realized there
were civilians
in the area, we
ceased fre, he
said.
After the
frefght ended,
village elders
told coalition
forces that seven people had
been killed and three wounded,
Hackathorn said.
Whether our direct fre was
responsible (for the casualties)
or close-air support or if the vic-
tims were caught in the crossfre
we just dont know right now,
he told The Associated Press.
We are profoundly sorry about
the loss of life.
U.S. Maj. Gen. Benjamin C.
Freakley, the coalitions opera-
tional commander, called for an
investigation, a military state-
ment said.
The wounded civilians were
treated at a coalition base in
Asadabad, the main town in Ku-
nar province.
U.S. and Afghan forces last
week launched a major offensive
dubbed Operation Mountain
Lion to fush out Taliban-led
militants in the region.
Police forces tried to go to the
area during the battle but were
prevented from entering by co-
alition and Afghan soldiers.
W
hether our direct fre was
responsible (for the casu-
alties) or close-air support or if the
victims were caught in the crossfre
we just dont know right now.
Maj. Matt Hackathorn

dont think it overly raises con-
cerns. Our investigation has
not found that there has been any
substantive lack of compliance.

Mark Mangino has to feel as
if the Easter Bunny brought him
something special this year.
During Fridays Annual
Spring game, all of us in the
Memorial Stadium press box
had a birds-eye-view of some-
thing different; something that
Jayhawk football under Mangi-
no has seldom enjoyed.
The much ballyhooed fresh-
man quarterback Kerry Meier,
who has had fans eagerly clam-
oring for Sept. 2, stepped into
the huddle Friday night with
confdence. By games end, he
had fans ready to start a four-
and-a-half month tailgate,
leading up to the home opener
against Northwestern State.
For now, KU fans have rea-
son to be excited and so does
Mangino. It wasnt so much
Meiers fnal stat line that had
people excited, it was his pres-
ence on the feld.
Meier ended up notching
four touchdowns, three by air
and one on the ground. He
looked calm
and collect-
ed. He threw
the pretti-
est pass of
the night,
when he hit
junior tight
end Derek
Fine for the
first touch-
down of the
game. Mei-
er looked
savvy in the
pocket. The pass had incred-
ible arc with a textbook spiral
down the field that hit Fine in
stride.
Meier looks like a big-time
college quarterback. Even Ath-
letics Director Lew Perkins had
a skip in his step after the game.
As we got in the elevator to leave
the press box, I overheard him
say that it looked like Kansas
had found itself a quarterback.
Of course, it would be clich
to compare Meier to former
Kansas quarterback Bill Whit-
temore. I cant do that. Thats
only because Meier looks like a
quarterback with throwing abil-
ity that hasnt been seen around
Lawrence in a long time.
It was Meiers precocious de-
cision making that had to give
Mangino goose bumps on Fri-
day. Since he came to Kansas,
Mangino has looked for a signal
caller that had the consistent
intellect that matched the abil-
ity. Those quarterback qualities
are what helped make a name
for Mangino, when he was the
offensive coordinator at Okla-
homa. The then-quarterback
Josh Heupel lead the Sooners
to a National Championship in
2000.
Mangino needs a quarter-
back again like Heupel, who
was not afraid to thrive in big
games.
Now is Meier going to do that
at Kansas? Well, thats an ar-
gument for another day. As for
now, tomorrow might have just
became a whole lot brighter for
the Kansas football team with
Meier in the picture.

It didnt take long for Kerry
Meier to show his potential at
the annual spring game Friday
night in front of 5,200 fans.
The freshman quarterback
struck quickly with a 36-yard
touchdown pass to junior tight
end Derek Fine for the frst
score of the game.
Hes done a great job placing
the ball and putting it where it
needs to be, Fine said, of Mei-
er.
Meier was part of all four
touchdowns for the White team,
throwing for three and running
for one. The White team defeat-
ed the Blue team 28-7.
Kerry will be a guy that is go-
ing to do some great things for
us this season, Kansas coach
Mark Mangino said. Theres no
question about it.
Meier fnished the night with
184 yards passing, going 16-of-
28 with no interceptions. He
added 36 rushing yards on sev-
en carries.
I had some good plays, I had
some bad plays, but I think I had
more good than bad, Meier said.
As long as I improve and keep
playing, it will be just fne.
Meier wasnt the only im-
pressive freshman on offense.
Freshman running back An-
gus Quigley caught an 11-yard
touchdown pass from fellow
freshman quarterback Todd Re-
esing for the Blue teams only
score of the night.
Angus Quigley is a guy that
is going to get in the mix here,
Mangino said.

After Kassie Humphreys
threw her second complete
game in two days and helped
Kansas to a 3-2 victory against
Texas Tech on Sunday, she tried
to pick up an egg in the outfeld
during the postgame childrens
Easter egg hunt, but put it back
for the children to fnd instead.
I had to put the egg back,
the pitcher said. I guess there is
no Easter bunny for me.
She wasnt alone in her disap-
pointment. The pitcher ruined
Texas Techs Easter hopes by
striking out eight players and al-
lowing only three hits over seven
innings at Arrocha Ballpark.
Although Humphreys pitched
with as much poise and conf-
dence as ever, she didnt even
know she was going to pitch
until Kansas coach Tracy Bunge
informed her after warm ups.
I wanted to ride the hot
arm, Bunge said. We needed
to shut them down, and Kassies
been doing it.
Early on, Humphreys and
the Jayhawks were not able to
shut down the Red Raiders. In
the frst inning, Humphreys hit
left felder Montana Patin with a
pitch. Patin advanced to second
off second baseman Jennifer
Bowers hit, who also made it to
base safely because of a throw-
ing error. Texas Tech capitalized
as frst baseman Jennifer Corkin
and designated player Brandy
Moulin drove in both runners to
give the Red Raiders a 2-0 lead.

With one out in the top of the frst inning,
Ritchie Price singled to left feld for the frst Kan-
sas hit of Sundays series fnale against Oklahoma
State.
It also marked the senior shortstops 275th hit
of his career, leaving him in sole possession of the
Kansas hits record.
Price fnished the day 2-for-5 at the plate, while
his team fnished the afternoon with its frst vic-
tory of the series, 7-5. After taking a 19-7 pum-
meling on Saturday, the Jayhawks (25-15, 7-8)
rebounded in the only way possible to keep their
Big 12 Conference hopes alive.
If we can walk a few less guys, play a little bet-
ter defense and keep the ball in the park, well sal-
vage the weekend, Kansas coach Ritch Price said
after the second game.
Price was right.
Although the teams put up 14 total home runs,
fourth in NCAA history, in Saturdays game, Okla-
homa State (21-12, 5-7) and Kansas hit only three
round trips on Sunday.
Price said the wind and sun conditions were as
bad as he had ever seen in his coaching career.
But on Sunday, the Jayhawks home runs were
more benefcial.
Freshman frst baseman Preston Land went 3-
for-4 with three RBI on the day. Land fnished the
day just a triple shy of the cycle. His solo home
run in the sixth was also his sixth of the season,
and second of the series.
Facing a series sweep, the Jayhawks were forced
to erase the memories of Saturday, when they hit
six home runs and still lost by 12 runs.
Its actually easier than losing those tough ones
late, Price said. If youre here watching it, the
conditions are so tough its not even a baseball
game.

ST. LOUIS Albert Pujols
third home run of the game, a
go-ahead two-run shot in the
ninth inning, gave the St. Louis
Cardinals an 8-7 victory over the
Cincinnati Reds on Sunday.
Pujols eighth home run
came on a 1-2 pitch from David
Weathers (0-1) and traveled an
estimated 441 feet to left feld,
ending a topsy-turvy game that
featured fve lead changes. His
second career three-homer
game and sixth career game-
ending homer topped off a 4-2
opening homestand at the new
Busch Stadium, and he matched
career highs with fve RBIs and
four runs scored.
Pitcher Jason Marquis, who
hit .310 last year with a homer
and 10 RBI, led off the ninth
with a pinch single. The only
doubt on Pujols blast was
whether it would stay fair, and it
ended up about 10 feet fair and
in the second deck.
Rich Aurilias two-run double
in the eighth, one batter after
right felder Juan Encarnacion
botched a potential double-play
fyout when he dropped the ball,
had put the Reds in front. Au-
rilia had three hits and Adam
Dunn and Austin Kearns hom-
ered on consecutive at-bats in
the ffth for the Reds.
Pujols and Scott Rolen con-
nected on consecutive at-bats in
the bottom of the ffth for the Car-
dinals. Pujols has 14 career multi-
homer games and two this season.
Mark Mulder and Bronson Ar-
royo, pitchers who have combined
to hit three homers this season,
gave up two long balls apiece and
failed to get the ball out of the in-
feld in their at-bats. Both labored
through fve shaky innings.
John Rodriguez added a two-
run triple for the Cardinals, who
sold out their frst six games at
their new ballpark.
Dunn hit a two-run shot on a
full count with two outs in the
fourth for his seventh homer. He
had fve hits on the Reds trip,
all of them homers, going 5-for-
21 with 10 strikeouts. Kearns,
who is 8-for-17 in his last four
games with two homers and sev-
en RBI, also connected on a full
count for his fourth homer and
a 4-2 lead for the Reds.
Both teams were again with-
out their starting center felders.
Edmonds missed his second
game with right shoulder sore-
ness after receiving a cortisone
shot Friday night, and Ken
Griffey Jr. missed his fourth
straight start for the Reds with
stiffness behind his right knee.
Both could return to the line-
up Monday.

Carl Crawford hurt himself and
then the Kansas City Royals.
Crawford had a tiebreaking
two-run triple to lead the Tampa
Bay Devil Rays to a 9-5 victory
over the Royals on Sunday.
Thats the most painful triple
I ever had to earn, said Craw-
ford, who had earlier fouled a
ball off his toe. It still hurts.
Crawford has 50 triples in
535 career games. It was his frst
this season.
Its one of the funnest plays
in all of sports, watching C.C.
hit a triple, Devil Rays manager
Joe Maddon
said. Hes
one of the
strongest run-
ners Ive ever
watched. He
runs hard and
he runs fast.
Hes intense.
J o n n y
Gomes, Da-
mon Hollins
and Ty Wig-
ginton hom-
ered for Tam-
pa Bay, which
has won seven
consecut i ve
games against
the Royals
dating to last season. The Devil
Rays, at 7-6, are off to the sec-
ond-best start in franchise his-
tory.
The Devil Rays scored three
runs in the sixth to take the lead.
Tomas Perez had an RBI single
before Crawford drove in two
with a triple off Steve Stemle (0-
1) to make it 6-4. Wigginton hit
a two-run drive in the seventh
to extend the Tampa Bay lead
to four.
Kansas City loaded the bases
with one out against Scott Dunn
in the eighth. Shawn Camp re-
lieved and got David DeJesus to
ground into an inning-ending
double play.
I dont know what to say,
Royals manager Buddy Bell said.
We didnt swing the bats.
Mark Teahen tripled and
scored on Angel Berroas two-
out single off reliever Brian
Meadows (1-0) to give Kansas
City a 4-3 lead in the sixth.
The Royals have lost seven in
a row.
Gomes two-run drive off
Mark Redman in the frst gave
the Devil Rays an early lead but
Shane Costa responded with a
two-run homer in the second to
tie it at 2.
Redman was reinstated from
the 15-day disabled list before
the game after being sidelined
by a left knee injury. He went
fve innings, allowing three runs
and seven hits.
I had to make some adjust-
ments and fnd out what was
working, Redman said. I was
really satisfed with myself phys-
ically.
Hollins hit a solo homer in
the second to put Tampa Bay
up 3-2. Kansas City drew even
again on Paul Bakos RBI single
in the fourth.
Tampa Bay rookie Jason
Hammel made his second ca-
reer start flling in for the injured
Mark Hendrickson, who is on
the 15-day disabled list with left
shoulder tightness. He gave up
three runs and four hits in fve
innings.
Hammel was optioned to Tri-
ple-A Durham after the game.
Tampa Bay will add a player to
the roster on Monday.

Mangino said senior run-
ning back Jon Cornish was
the No. 1 running back right
now. Cornish ran for 60 yards
on the night, averaging four
yards per carry.
Cornish must develop into
the total running back pack-
age, including blocking and
pass receiving, Mangino
said.
Brandon McAnderson and
Marcus Herford caught the
other two touchdowns from
Meier for the White team dur-
ing the scrimmage.
Senior Adam Barmann was
the No. 2 quarterback Friday
night, but Mangino said he
would like to get Barmann
more work at the tight end po-
sition, which lacked depth.
Mangino said he was cau-
tious of playing Barmann too
much at tight end because he
would be the No. 2 quarter-
back if the team had to use
him. Barmann did not get
any work at tight end in the
spring game.
If something happens to
him, then we go over to a
young man right out of high
school and he hasnt gotten
many repetitions this spring,
Mangino said, about Reesing.
On the defensive side,
sophomore cornerback Aqib
Talib played like the shut-
down cornerback Kansas will
need next season.
Aqib Talib has a chance to
be a pretty special player in
this league, Mangino said.
Joining Talib in the sec-
ondary will be senior safety
Jerome Kemp. Mangino said
freshman Darrell Stuckey had
the edge at the free safety po-
sition.
The other cornerback posi-
tion will not be decided until
the fall, when recruits Antho-
ny Webb and Phillip Strozier
join the team.
Junior college transfers,
Blake Bueltel, who started
Friday, and Michael McCoy
also are in line for the start-
ing cornerback position.
I really like this football
teams enthusiasm and prac-
tice habits, Mangino said.
We have very good practice
habits, which always gives us
a chance to be a good team.

Kansas (23-20, 4-6) re-
sponded with an offensive
barrage that produced 11
hits. In the bottom of the in-
ning, first baseman Nicole
Washburn notched her first
of three hits and scored on
shortstop Destiny Franken-
steins double.
Outfielder Betsy Wilson tied
the game in the second inning
with a single that scored out-
fielder Ashley Goodrich.
With the score still tied in
the fourth inning and third
baseman Val Chapple on
second base, Washburn hit a
sharp line drive into left field.
Chapple turned the corner at
third, and Bunge waved her
in to score.
Texas Techs Patin threw the
ball to catcher Robyn Wike in
time, but Wike bobbled it, al-
lowing Chapple to avoid the
tag and score the go-ahead
run.
When you get a base hit
to the weakest arm out in
left field, you have to take a
chance, Bunge said. Luck-
ily, it was a short hop.
Chapples run was enough
for Humphreys, who shut out
the Red Raiders after the first
inning on the way to her sec-
ond victory of the series.
In the first game, Hum-
phreys struck out 10 and al-
lowed only four hits in a 1-0
KU victory. Humphreys re-
cord now stands at 11-13.
The Kansas sweep of Texas
Tech was its first of a Big 12
opponent this season.
It moved Kansas into sixth
place in the conference and
kicked off a seven-game
homestand.
Weve been on the road
for a long time, pitcher Ser-
ena Settlemier said. Itll be
nice to gain confidence here
at home.

DENVER Brett Myers
combined with two relievers
on a seven-hit shutout and
Ryan Howard homered Sun-
day, leading the Philadelphia
Phillies over the Colorado
Rockies in the first 1-0 win
by a visiting team at Coors
Field.
In 888 regular-season games
at Coors Field, the only other 1-
0 game was last July 9, when the
Rockies beat San Diego.
Myers (1-0) allowed seven
hits in 7 2-3 innings, struck
out five and walked one. He
is 5-0 against the Rockies, in-
cluding 4-0 with a 2.64 ERA
in four starts at Coors, the
home-run haven that opened
in 1995.
Cory Sullivan reached on
a bunt single with one out in
the eighth, and Clint Barmes
flied out. Arthur Rhodes re-
lieved Myers and walked Todd
Helton, then retired Garrett
Atkins on a lineout to right.
Tom Gordon pitched a perfect
ninth for his fourth save in as
many chances.
Aaron Cook (1-2) gave up
six hits in eight innings and is
winless in four starts against the
Phillies.
Howard hit his second homer
of the season in the seventh in-
ning, a 427-foot drive into the
Philadelphia bullpen in center
feld.
Colorado had runners at the
corners with one out in the
fourth before Matt Holliday to
hit into his second double play
of the game.
Both pitchers worked out of
trouble in the sixth inning.
Cook gave up a leadoff single
to Jimmy Rollins, who moved to
third on a single by Aaron Row-
and, who then was caught steal-
ing. After Bobby Abreu walked,
Cook got Pat Burrell to hit into
a double play.
Helton had a two-out dou-
ble in the sixth, and Atkins
beat out an infeld single for
his third hit of the game. But
Myers retired Holliday on a
groundout.
Baseball Notes:
Myers hadnt worked longer
than fve innings in his previous
two starts.
Howard was robbed of a
hit in the fifth when second
baseman Jason Smith ranged
behind the bag to throw him
out.
The Phillies began the day
as one of four major league
teams without a triple. Smith
started at second for Luis
Gonzalez, who is 0-for-7
against Myers.
Smith went 1-for-3 against
Myers with an infeld single.

A touch of Irish in

By Pete IacoBellI
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
HILTON HEAD ISLAND,
S.C. Aaron Baddeley won
the Verizon Heritage for his frst
PGA Tour title, rallying with
two late birdies and fnishing off
Jim Furyk with a scrambling par
on Harbour Towns lighthouse
closing hole.
Baddeley was tied with Furyk
entering the round, had a two-
shot lead by the ffth hole, then
was down by that many to Fu-
ryk after No. 11.
But the 25-year-old Austra-
lian proved unfappable, birdie-
ing two of the hardest holes on
the PGA Tour the 14th was
statistically the hardest par 3 on
tour last year and the 15th was
the hardest par 5 to move in
front for good.
Baddeley shot a 1-under 70
to fnish at 15 under, a stroke
ahead of Furyk (71) and two
ahead of Vaughn Taylor (66)
and Billy Mayfair (69).
Furyk, the 2003 U.S. Open
winner seeking his frst victory
since the Western Open last
summer, was seemingly in the
clear when his birdie on No. 10
and Baddeleys miscue on No.
11 put him up by two shots.
However, Furyk missed a 5-
footer for par on the 12th hole
and could not match Baddeleys
touch at the end.
Furyk had his chances to tie
after Baddeley chunked a chip
shot at the par-3 17th and made
bogey. But Furyk followed by
missing a 10-foot par putt to re-
main one back.
Again on the 18th hole, Fu-
ryk had a tying 12-foot birdie
putt, but slid it left. Baddeley,
who missed the green when
his second shot went long and
right, then won with a 6-foot
par putt that caught the right
edge of the cup and dropped
in.
Baddeley raised his arms
in triumph, his wife, Richelle,
squealing happily alongside the
green.
Baddeley won $954,000 and,
perhaps more importantly be-
cause he was ranked 158th on
the money list coming in, gained
a tour exemption through 2008.
Golf fans might best know
Baddeley as the young hotshot
in the golf commercial, driv-
ing a convertible with young
female fans yelling his nick-
name, Badds. Its an image
the first-time winner says hes
not fully comfortable with and
one he expects will change
over time.
Hes a devout Christian
who aspires to the ministry
when hes through with golf.
He celebrated his one-year
anniversary this past Satur-
day. Hours before his final
round tee-time, Baddeley
spoke at Harbour Towns Eas-
ter Sunrise Service by the 18th
green. Two days earlier, Bad-
deley closed his second round
with an unlikely eagle at the
famous lighthouse hole.
He has three victories in Aus-
tralian, where his family moved
from New Hampshire when
Baddeley was 2. He fnished
10th on the Nationwide Tour in
2002 to qualify for the PGA Tour.
He has twice been a runner-up,
in 2003 at the Sony Open and a
year later at the Chrysler Classic
of Tucson.
Ernie Els was the only one
of the worlds top five play-
ers on hand after last weeks
Masters. Els 71 left him tied
for seventh at 10 under, his
sixth Top-10 finish in eight
visits to Harbour Town.

Tonight: Follow anothers lead.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHHH

Tonight: Say yes.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHH

Tonight: Happy at home.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHHH
Listen well to news that heads your way.

Tonight: Hang with a special friend.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHH Deal

decision that revolves around you.
Tonight: Put some fnishing touches on your
work.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Maintain your sense of humor.
Tonight: Easy does it.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HH
Your instincts rule you for the next few
days. How you handle the pressure could
change substantially if you can adjust and
fex. Go with the fow, understanding your
limitations. Listen to what seems to be an
eruptive statement or opinion.
Tonight: Out and about.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHH
Friends have expectations, but how you
deal with them could change remarkably.
Your fnances could swing dramatically.
You have a good time wherever you are, no
matter whom you are with. Think in terms of
gains and changes.
Tonight: Follow your pals.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHH

you desire. Sometimes you could be over-
worked and tired by the burdens you carry.
Be honest with yourself.
Tonight: A must appearance.

6B THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN MONDAY, APRIL 17, 2006 SPORTS
BY RICHARD ROSENBLATT
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
LEXINGTON, Ky. Dont
blink when the gate springs
open to start the Kentucky Der-
by. If you do, you could miss all
the favorites making a mad dash
to the rst turn at Churchill
Downs.
The eld for the May 6 Derby
is coming into shape, and the
theme for this edition is speed,
speed and more speed. The top
three contenders in the Run for
the Roses nal Top 10 Broth-
er Derek, Lawyer Ron and Bar-
baro are front-runners who
refuse to be caught when they
take the lead.
Lawyer Ron was the latest to
display his sheer speed, drag-
ging jockey John McKee to the
front along the backstretch en
route to a 2 3/4-length victory in
Saturdays $1 million Arkansas
Derby the colts sixth straight
win.
A week earlier, Brother Der-
ek went gate-to-wire in captur-
ing the Santa Anita Derby for
his fourth straight victory. And
a week before that, Barbaro
stalked the pace before pull-
ing away from Sharp Humor to
win the Florida Derby his fth
straight victory.
They arent the only speed
demons, as Sinister Minister
showed Saturday in an astonish-
ing gate-to-wire, 12 3/4-length
romp in the Blue Grass Stakes
at Keeneland, a victory that left
once-promising Derby hopefuls
Bluegrass Cat (fourth) and First
Samurai (fth) in his wake.
I dont think Brother Derek
can get in front of this guy, Sin-
ister Minister trainer Bob Baf-
fert said. I dont think he wants
to.
Dan Hendricks, who trains
Brother Derek, says his colt can
settle in behind a speed duel up
front. If a horse wants to be
sent out there and be ridiculous,
let him, he said. Well be close.
Everybody knows what our style
is.
This weeks Top 10, with nal
Derby future wager odds:
1. Brother Derek (Dan Hen-
dricks, trainer, Alex Solis, jock-
ey): Early Derby favorite will
have company up front in Derby.
Expected to be in Louisville on
April 25. Next start: Kentucky
Derby (May 6). Odds: 5-1.
2. Lawyer Ron (Bob Holthus,
John McKee): Six in a row after
sweeping aside 12 rivals in Ar-
kansas Derby. Next start: Derby.
Odds: 8-1.
3. Barbaro (Michael Matz,
Edgar Prado): Unbeaten colt
training at Keeneland, with
workout expected next Sunday.
Next start: Derby. Odds: 9-1.
4. Point Determined (Bob
Baffert, Rafael Bejarano): If
theres too much speed up front,
Baffert could get his fourth Der-
by win with this colt. Next start:
Derby. Odds: 13-1.
5. Bob and John (Baffert,
Garrett Gomez): Wood Memo-
rial winner also likes to run near
the front. Next start: Derby.
Odds: 13-1.
6 . S we e t n o r t h e r n s a i n t
(Michael Trombetta, Kent
Desormeaux): Starting to be-
come popular choice after romp
in Illinois Derby on April 8.
Next start: Derby. Odds: 10-1.
7. Sinister Minister (Baffert,
Gomez): Gate-to-wire Blue
Grass winner could have been
claimed in January for $62,500.
Would have won California
Derby but hit rail twice in the
stretch. Next start: Derby. Odds:
15-1 (mutuel eld).
8. Steppenwolfer (Daniel Pi-
etz, Robby Albarado): Second-
best to Lawyer Ron in Arkansas
in prep races. Extra distance in
Derby could help. Next start:
Derby. Odds: 47-1.
9. A.P. Warrior (John Shirre-
ffs, Corey Nakatani): Will train
at Santa Anita and be shipped
to Churchill Down on May 2.
Next start: Derby. Odds: 24-1.
10. Like Now (Kiaran
McLaughlin, Fernando Jara):
Gotham winner recovered
quickly from fever that kept him
out of Wood Memorial. Next
start: Lexington Stakes (Satur-
day). Odds: 70-1.

Friday Oklahoma State 9,
Kansas 5
Oklahoma State moved its
record to a nearly fawless 17-
1 at Allie P. Reynolds Stadium
in the opening game of a three-
game set against Kansas, using
the long ball as its biggest ally.
In his frst game back since
dislocating his shoulder on April
5, senior Jared Schweitzer played
second base and went 2-for-3 and
scored a pair of runs. It is doubt-
ful that Schweitzer will return to
playing frst base, his usual posi-
tion, until sophomore second
baseman Ryne Price returns.
Price underwent surgery on his
wrist Friday.
Kansas could not keep up
with Oklahoma States hot
bats. Shortstop Shelby Ford
did the most damage, hitting
two home runs and collecting
four RBI in the process.
Seniors Gus Milner, Sch-
weitzer and John Allman went
8-of-10, collectively. They also
drove in three runs and scored
four times, while their team-
mates accounted for just three
more hits. Kansas actually out-
hit Oklahoma State, 11-10.
Junior lefty Sean Land (4-
6) took the loss, allowing fve
runs on fve hits in fve innings
of work.
Saturday Oklahoma State
19, Kansas 7
Six different Jayhawk batters
hit a home run on Saturday.
Yet the defcit by which they
lost was double that amount.
Fighting windy conditions,
Kansas (24-15, 6-8) fell to Okla-
homa State (21-11, 5-6) for the
second day in a row, 19-7.
Neither the teams nor the
pitchers could escape the wrath
of the wind. The strong gusts
provided added power to anyone
holding a bat. Combined, the two
teams hit 14 home runs, tying for
fourth place in NCAA history.
With the losses, Kansas
dropped its frst Big 12 series
in three weeks.
Pitching was a problem for
Kansas. Senior right-hander
Ricky Fairchild (4-4) took the
loss, giving up 10 runs in his
three innings of work. Fairch-
ild and the three pitchers to
follow gave up eight walks to
Oklahoma States one.
Kansas used three different
pitchers, gave up three consec-
utive home runs and walked
fve straight, while Oklahoma
State tore the game wide open
in the fourth. All seven runs
were scored before Kansas
could get an out.
There would be no coming
back for Kansas, despite senior
shortstop Ritchie Price retaliating
right away, hitting a home run in
his teams next at bat. It tied Price
with Darryl Monroe at 274 for
most career hits as a Jayhawk.

Brian Bender, Overland Park freshman, left, Dave Mackay, Shawnee senior, center, await the beginning of
Saturdays game between Kansas and Oklahoma State. Kansas lost 19-7, in a game that saw a Big 12-record 14
home runs hit.
Baseball
continued from page 1B
Price said his players were
disappointed after Saturdays
loss, but they kept a short mem-
ory heading into Sundays game.
Kansas tagged Oklahoma State
with its second home loss of the
year. The Jayhawks victory was
Oklahoma States second home
loss of the year.
Oklahoma State home runs
took their toll on Kansas pitch-
ing to start the game. Outfelder
Keanon Simon and shortstop
Deik Scram went deep to give
their team a 3-0 lead in the bot-
tom of the third inning.
Simon would go on to lead
the Cowboy offense, going 3-
for-5 at the plate, scoring twice
and knocking in a run.
Kansas retaliated in its next
at bat, not allowing another big
lead to mount. It put up three
runs of its own in the top of the
fourth inning. Senior outfelder
Matt Baty, senior infelder Jared
Schweitzer and sophomore out-
felder John Allman singled con-
secutively to get the rally started.
Lands two-RBI double tied
the game at three.
After taking the lead, 4-3, the
next inning, Oklahoma State
starter Rick Rivas left the game
(1-2) after just 4.1 innings on the
mound. Rivas would take the
loss, but not before Jeff Breed-
love replaced him and game up
a two-RBI single to sophomore
third baseman Erik Morrison,
the frst batter he faced.
In the fnal inning of Kansass
three-inning scoring package, Land
hit a solo home run for the teams
seventh and fnal run scored.
Kansas wouldnt need any
more runs.
Senior closer Don Czyz took
over to start the sixth inning.
The closer threw four-shutout
innings to pick up his 13th save
of the season. For the fourth
Sunday in a row, the Czyz and
senior Kodiak Quick combo did
the job against opposing Big 12
competition.
Kansas will take on Missouri
State at 6 p.m. on Tuesday in its
next game.
