F R A N K M IL L E R /D a ily T e x a n Staff University of California makes ‘terrible mistake’ Associated Press WASHINGTON — The University of California's decision to end affirma­ tive actio» programs was "a terrible mistake” and will trigger a Justice Department review of federal contracts with the state, White House Chief of Staff Leon Panetta said Suryjay. Panetta, appearing on CBS' Face the Nation, said the action by the university regents was " a major retreat in terms of a university and a state that has always been on the leading edge of moving forw ard" on civil rights issues. He said the Justice Department and other agencies would review their relationships with the state to deter­ mine whether grant money and con­ tracts could be affected by the decision. Regents declared Thursday that race and gender no longer would be considered in school adm issions, hiring and contracting. But they exempted any changes that would result "in a loss of federal or state funds for the university." California Gov. Pete Wilson took knocks from both Republicans and D em ocrats in terview ed on the Sunday news program for his sup­ port of the university action. Panetta said Wilson, a contender for the Republican presidential nomi­ nation in 1996, "obviously is running for president on this kind of issue.. It is divisive and I think it is really going to set that state back." "I don't think there's any ques­ tion that he is stirring the pot of racial turmoil by his actions," said Sen. Bill Bradley, D-N.J., on NBC's Meet the Press. On the Republican side, former E d u cation S ecretary W illiam Bennett told NBC th.it Wilson had signed into law 21 bills on affirma­ tive action. B ennett qu estioned Wilson's political motive for chang­ ing his stance now. Bennett said he supported the university action, "but if it looks like political oppor­ tunism, it will not serve our party." Rep. J.C. Watts of Oklahoma, one of two black Republicans in Congress, agreed with Bennett that Wilson has "the burden of proof" as to his inten­ tions. "I think we have to be very care­ ful how we use the policy of race, if you will, to progress in this country." Wilson, appearing later on ABC's This Week With David Brinkley, said affirmative action "is in fact racial preferences, racial discrimination. It is wrong and it is unfair." Asked about possible Justice Department sanctions, he said, "I don't 1994 ETHNIC ADMISSION RATES Percentages of applied first time freshmen accepted to UT: Asian American ► Hispanic ► White ► Black ► American Indian ► 71°/0 69% 68% 59% 56% Foreign ► 29% TOTAL ► 66% |\ 3 \ % " S O U R C E : O ffice of Institutional Studies R O S S C R A V E N S /D a ily Texan Staff think there can be legally and I think these threats are rather pathetic. They will certainly not sway me." Affirmative action is shaping up as one of the central issues of the 1996 cam paign. Senate M ajority Leader Bob D ole, R -K an., the Republican front-runner in the pres­ idential race, has promised to intro­ duce legislatio n as early as this week on ending all federal set-aside programs. D ole's chief rival, Sen. Phil G ram m , R -Texas, has also made attacking affirmative action a main part of his campaign. P resid en t C linton last w eek declared last week that while some improvements are needed in affir­ mative action programs, his admin­ istration regards such programs as essential to ensuring equal opportu­ nity in the country. University will continue prograi... to promote ethnic, racial diversity ELIZA SELIG_____________ Daily Texan Staff Despite the U niversity of California's move to end affirma­ tive action program s, the University of Texas will continue its efforts to make enrollment ethnically diverse. "There is a difference between the California system and UT," said Samuel Issacharoff, UT pro­ fessor of law. "W e do have a legal obligation to remedy the past history of exclusion." In 1983, the University became responsible under federal law to make efforts to expand its ethnic population, while California has a history of volunteering to enlarge its affirmative action pro­ gram s, Issacharoff said. The University still must abide by this federal obligation. The University of California board of regents voted Thursday to drop race-based admissions at the nine-campus system and halt affirmative action hiring prac­ tices. UT officials said Friday that the University does not plan to suspend its cu rren t m inority recruitm ent program s, but to continue what it has been doing. "What could happen is a fine tuning of the m eth od s," said Linda Millstone, director of the Equal Employment Opportunity Office. M oves to diversify stu den t population are supported by an aggressive recru itm en t of minorities to the University, said Ricardo Romo, vice-provost fo r undergraduate studies and coor­ dinator of Gateway, a retention program. The University has "a fairly good program for inclusion of young Texans," Romo said. "We ought not be exclu sion ary.

When Susan Smith returns to court on Monday, jurors will weigh those dueling depictions as they decide whether she should spend her life in prison or go to the electric chair for drowning her two young sons. In the sentencing phase for the woman conv icted of murdering 3- year-old Michael and 14-month-old Alex, lawyers will argue about her mental state on the night she strapped the boys into her car and rolled them into a lake. The jury took about 2 1/2 hours Saturday to decide Smith's guilt. The panel rejected a lesser charge of involuntary manslaughter, which carries a sentence of up to five years in prison. The jury now must decide whether Smith deserves the death penalty for murdering the boys. After they vanished Oct. 25, she concocted a story about a black carjacker and held to it in nationallv televised interv iews for nine days before confessing. Jurors asked to watch some of those interviews again before returning their verdict. Prosecutor Tommy Pope said the penalty phase of the trial could last as long as a week. Defense lawyer David Bruck declined to say what evidence he will produce at the hearing. "This is a very difficult tase, it's a heartbreaking case. It's a terrible tragedy," Bruck said. He added that he wasn't surprised by the verdict. Prosecutors contended she selfishly killed the children to elimi­ nate an obstacle to an extramarital affair. But defense lawyers called her act a failed suicide attempt by a young woman who came from a broken home, was sexually molested and had a history of emotional problems. Both sides plan to stress Smith's mental state during the penalty phase. During closing arguments, the prosecution emphasized its claim that she made a conscious decision to drown the boys. "She had her A S S O C IA T E D P R E S S Susan Smith, center, was escorted out of the Union County Courthouse in Union, S.C.

Outside the courthouse on Saturday night, Mark and Bettina Krause of Greer said they had brought their two young sons to Union to see John D. Long Lake where Smith's sons are memorial­ ized. Instead they were among the first to see the 23-year-old as she was driven away in handcuffs.

The law is akin to affirmative action's land­ mark case Bakke v. California Board of Regents that made admission policies more clandestine than they already were. Likewise, this ban only hides the consumption; it doesn't curtail it. Those that used to drink the alcohol openly will merely pour it into a Big Gulp to avoid citation. Just as the Bakke solution created more problems, the alcohol ban will inevitably create more enforcement headaches than long-term gains. To add to its ineffectiveness, the ban is too nar­ rowly tailored. The same verbiage that will push the bottles back a few blocks will let those who have consumed the contents come right back to the Drag. The ordinance says that one can't con­ sume on the Drag, saying little about simple drunken vagrancy. Yes, public intoxication laws should apply, but realistically, these laws deter only obnoxious, offensive conduct — behavior that is not typical of those "drunk on the Drag." Moreover, what exactly is the deterrent? Most of those who sit and drink don't have homes, Bosnian Serbs have rounded up many Bosnian Muslims into camps. One concentration pregnant Bosnian woman placed in a camp became entertainment for the Serb soldiers. Two of the soldiers placed a bet on the sex of the woman's fetus. They then took a knife to her womb to remove her baby and determine the winner. This is only one of many atrocities Bosnian Serbs have committed. Over 250,000 Bosnian Muslims have been slaughtered by the Serbs. Approximately 200,000 women and girls have been tortured, molested and raped. Four million Bosnians have become refugees. Yet the world has let Serb aggres­ sion continue for over three years. Recently the so-called U.Ñ. safe- haven of Srebrenica fell, and another U N. safe haven, Zepa, is about to fall. Again, the United Nations and NATO have proved to be useless. M ark Murray FIRING LINE Kraus is a government senior. the war will spread beyond Bosnia. In fact, the war has already spread into Croatia thanks to Croatian Serbs who assist the Bosnian Serbs. The Serbs will not stop at Bosnia but will continue into Croatia and surrounding countries. Further­ more, the three-year U.N. presence has already xiroved that it is not capable of ending the war. The arming of the Bosnian Mus­ lims will equalize the war front and could lead to peace negotiations, just as the equalization of the Cold War arms race led to a stalemate. Empty threats are useless, and it is time for action. The United States and the U nited N ations m ust remove their troops from Bosnia and lift the arms embargo. Until this is done, the blood of the tortured, raped and slaughtered Bosnians will stain the w orld's hands. Jaka is a computer science senior.

One evening at 6:38 p.m., I called the center to see if it was still open. The guy on the other side of the line told me the health center was only open from 6- 8 p.m. on an emergency basis and it would cost me an additional $15.00 to get help. I told him I had sprained my ankle the day before and that it was greatly swollen, not to mention very painful to move in any direction. He told me "W ell, we can't help you. It's not like you're going to die." I hung up astonished and upset. I can't believe that on top of the shoddy service the students get at the health center, i.e., long waits, we have to tolerate this type of attitude from the workers. Hema Pandya English senior UT gets grant for $2.9 million Engineers to build high-speed train BRIAN ROSAS Daily Texan staff With a $2.9 million grant from the federal government, UT engineering researchers hope to develop a loco­ m otive capable of speeding dow n tracks at 150 miles per hour. The money for the grant was pro­ vided by the U.S. D ep artm en t of Defense and the Federal R ailroad Administration, in conjunction with several other businesses, to research and develop an advanced locomo­ tion propulsion system. 'Austin and UT stand together as a magnet for high-tech research and development," said U.S. Rep. Lloyd Doggett, D-Austin, in a prep ared statement. "This aw ard is the only one of its type in the country, attest­ ing to our world-class status in the high-tech field." Jeff N elson, sp o k esm an for Doggett, said the application process was a group proposal in which the University served as a coordinator. Companies included in the proposal are: Allied Signal, Inc.; Electromotive Division of General Motors; Associa­ tion of American Railroads; Argonne National Laboratories; and AVCON Corp. Each of the com panies will contribute their expertise in train operating to the project. R esearchers w ill use the g ra n t money and Star Wars technology to develop the electric locomotive. The key to the new design is the flywheel that will power the engine and convert heat into usable electrici­ ty, which is necessary for the loco­ motive's quick acceleration. John Price, a researcher at the UT Center for Electromechanics, said a conventional diesel engine pow er­ ful e n o u g h to reach 150 m ph w ould normally weigh as much as the entire locomotive, but the spe­ cial flywheel, which will spin at a rate of up to 15,000 revolutions per minute, makes the advanced loco­ motive possible. "T he s tro n g e s t in c e n tiv e for develo p in g a high pow er, fossil- fu eled lo co m o tiv e is th a t it can operate on existing U.S. track infra­ s tru c tu re w ith o u t re q u irin g the track to be straightened or adding an overhead catenary system that a co n v entional electric locom otive w ould require," Price said. "This can help high-growth metropolitan areas interested in high speed rail save billio n s of do llars in in fra­ structure improvements that would otherwise be required." The flywheel is dependent upon Star W ars technology because it incorporates certain elements of the compensated pulse alternator, or the "com pulsator," w hich was devel­ oped at the University to provide large am ounts of pow er in stan ta­ neously tactical for ad v an ced weapons. The end result will be about 8,000 horsepower available for running the advanced engine, app ro xim ately twice as much power as is produced by a conventional locomotive engine. "Initially, the advanced locomo­ tive propulsion system will be used for h ig h -sp ee d p a sse n g e r rail, although freight transports will also benefit eventually," Price said. 3 candidates emerge for retention position KEVIN FITCHARD____________ Daily Texan Staff A d ecision on the h irin g of an assistant dean of students overseeing retention services could be made by the end of the week, Dean of S tu­ dents Sharon Justice said Sunday. After initial telephone screening two weeks ago, the list of candidates for the position was narrowed to three. Two of the three candidates currently work as administrators in the dean of stu­ dents office: Jo Ann Robinson, assistant director of the Gateway retention pro­ gram, and Margarita Arellano, coordi­ nator of the SUCCESS program. The third candidate, William Jerome Blake, is the former dean of students at John­ son C. Smith University in Charlotte, N. Carolina. Justice said th a t a c a n d id a te 's em ploym ent w ith the U n iv ersity could carry advantages and d isad­ vantages, but would not be the only factor in the decision process. Justice would not comment on the individ­ ual candidates. Each candidate undergoes a series of interviews that began July 14, the first being conducted by the dean of stu­ dents' staff. Afterwards, each candi­ date is questioned by a committee of students selected by the dean of stu­ dents' office, and finally interviewed by Justice. The dean's office staff and the student board will offer their opin­ ions of the candidates' qualifications after the interviews, but the final deci­ sion will be made by Justice. "She'll take our recommendation to heart," said Eloy De La Garza, director of the minority information center, one of the students invited to interview candidates. "She has in the past." De La Garza said Blake's stance was very pro-active. Blake, the only candidate that could be reached for comment, confirmed that he was in favor of student activism. It "gives them ownership of what happens on campus," said Blake. When students experience that ownership, he added, they are more likely to continue on to graduation, "and I'm primarily inter­ ested in seeing them graduate." N either A rellano nor Robinson could be reached for comment. ONE H O U R E6 SLIDE PROCESSING 2 4 X = *4.95 3 6X = *6.55 PHOTO STUDENTS - ADDITIONAL 10% DISCOUNT CUSTOM PHOTOGRAPHIC LABS W.

But this summer in Austin, three UT foreign lan­ guage instructors, as well as several other teachers, are offering interested Persian speakers a unique opportunity to practice, leam, live and breath Persian in an intensive non-University course. "I've taken intensive language classes before, but nothing like this," said Mark Zeyneddin, graduate student in public affairs and Middle Eastern studies. The course, which began Friday and will last until Aug. 24, is sponsored by Perse polis Enterprises, an organization of Persian specialists founded in Austin in 1977. KEVIN L. DELAHUNTY/Daily Texan Staff Michael Craig Hillmann teaches Persian from the cramped space of his office. Designed for intermediate and advanced speakers, picnics and a cookout, are planned. the Persepolis program is free to UT students. During the 35-day period, students will attend class for a total of 180 hours. In addition, 20 hours of extracurricular activities, including hiking, dinners, The class is ideal for people w ho w ant to do research in Iran, Afghanistan or Tajikistan, where Persian is spoken, Zeyneddin said, adding "it's a dif­ ficult language to leam right now because it's diffi­ KEVIN L.

I am very interested in urban development and the sociology of the lower class," he said. "My hope is to some time do research in Iran." Zeyneddin is the only UT student enrolled in the five-member course, although a second UT student will be joining later in the summer for a more advanced portion of the Haas Providing students with a practical knowledge of the language is one of the main goals of the rlas.^ sajd Michael Hillmann, designer of die course and a pro­ fessor of Persian. There is a call in the United States for non-acade­ mic Persian services," said Hillmann, who also co­ authored most of the class's texts, "We don't have the call on campus for these kinds of courses." In university classes, emphasis usually shifts to lit­ erature once the students gain a certain fluency, Hifl- martn said. In contrast, the Per^polis course prepares students for practical tasks, such as conducting busi­ ness in Persian.

Now, as two congressional subcom m ittees try to determine why the raid on the Branch Davidian reli­ gious com pound failed, a reasonable person might suggest the term could be applied to the hearings themselves. The hearings, scheduled to resum e M onday, have offered plenty of drama, but none more com pelling than 14-year-old Kiri Jewell telling how cult leader David Koresh had sex with her when she was 10, and how she w as taught the best w ay to com m it suicide. President Clinton said Sunday on C-SPAN he had­ n 't been watching the hearings, but arranged to see a tape of K iri's testim ony "b e cau se I was so m oved when I heard about it." The hearings have featured plenty of props, includ­ in g h an d g re n a d e ca s in g s, p o w e rfu l r ifle s and blacked-out documents. And there has been plenty of politics, with m em ­ b ers o f b o th p a rtie s p ro fessin g to search for the tru th but settin g o ff in d ifferent d irections to eet there. 6 Democrats have lined up to blame Koresh, to sug­ gest the opposition has an unholy alliance with the National Rifle Association, and even to question the need for the hearings. " W e have th e aw fu l O k lah o m a C ity b o m b in g and out of th at com es a h earin g on W a c o ," said Rep. John C onyers, D -M ich., shakin g his head in w onderm ent.

"T h e bottom line is that I d o n 't think there w ill be any new n e w s." Republicans, meanwhile, try to place the blame on the Clinton administration. "Shouldn't w e have been m ore ca re fu l?" asked Rep. Bill Zeliff, a New Hampshire Republican who is co-chairing the hearings. Much of what went wrong at Waco — where four federal agents and six D avid ians w ere killed in a failed raid, and Koresh and 80 of his followers died 51 days later after a fire sw ept the com pound — has already been disclosed in lengthy studies by the Ju s­ tice and Treasury departments.

"Those people w on't have the m oney to pay for a [liver] transplant when the day comes that they need it." The two-year statute of limitations was h- frozen in June 1994 when the class-action request was filed by attorneys for 35 for­ mer patients.

Tracking a d is­ ease such as hepatitis C is difficult, she said. "Y ou can't go back in time and say d ef­ initely where a person caught a disease," she said.

In a time of budget cuts to ease the stress on taxpayers, state parks are using capitalism to boost their finances in a time of falling legislative funding. The effort to make parks economically more self-sufficient is part of an overall strategy initiat­ ed by the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department, which manages 200 such areas. The two-year-old program includes revenue enhancers like a mail-order gift catalog and a reservations system to help increase stays at campgrounds and lodges. “What we're doing, essentially, is operating as a private company inside state government," said Andrew Sansom, the department's execu­ tive director. “We're borrowing from techniques that have long been utilized in the private sectt>i but which are very new to government." The revenue-generating constitutes what the agency calls the "entrepreneurial budget system." Some parks rent paddle boats. Others h< formulated tours, like the annual C Big Spring State Park or the reg u lar "o w l prowls at Brazos Bend, near the Houston area. Park superintendents are responsible for coming up with moneymaking ideas, said Ron Holliday, the department"s public lands division director. "W e have only one rule: No rubber snakes," he said, referring to ideas that could turn the rev­ enue producing ideas into cheap schemes that smack of roadside tourist traps. The $15.7 million raised last year, up from $14.3 million in 1993, is just a fraction of the department's $130 million overall budget. But it covers 80 percent of the parks' operating costs, up from 50 percent before the program was begun. "O ur goal is 100 percent — to finance all of our operations out of revenues we raise," San­ som said. "W e might not get there, but that's the goal." While money for parks from the state has decreased, demands on the system has grown every year since 1988. The 26 million visitors in 1994 were more than the combined populations of Texas.

It is a film that flirts with a j a c u l a r display, but trite trail of smoke. Firecracker. ends up as a ROB ALEXANDER Daily Texan Staff ~ ~ At the turn of the century, China found itself caught up in a dynamic clash of time periods. Entrenched feudal traditions were in direct opposition to an emerging capitalist spirit. Based on the novel by Feng Jicai, Red Firecracker, Green Firecracker cre- ates.a microcosm in which these con­ flicting forces collide. fne ancient and powerful Cai family has built an enormous empire around the humble firecracker. Not only utilized in its traditional cele­ bratory role, the firecracker is also used to break up frozen rivers, and its ingredients form a potent medi­ cine. Perched on the bank of the Yellow iver is the feudal Cai estate. Across the river flourishes a village tinged by tne burgeoning ways of capital­ ism. Caught in this whirlwind of tran­ sition is the young Chun Zhi (Ning jing). As the only heir to the Cai fam­ ily fortune, she is forced to assume the role of absolute ruler of this fire­ works empire. Unfortunately, women in positions of power are not looked as strongly upon as their male counterparts, so the family's elders decide young Chun Zhi should effectively suppress all indi­ cations of femininity. She must don severe male attire, be addressed as Master", and is also forbidden to marry. As New Year approaches, the Cai family hires a young painter, Niu FILM RED HRECRACKER, GREEN FIRECRACKER Starring: Ning Jing, Wu Gang, Zhao Xiaorui Director: He Ping Playing at: Village Cinema Four Rating: ★★Vi> (out of five) Bao (Wu Gang) to adorn the palace with paintings of traditional Chinese gods. Niu Bao is an obstinate and proud rogue whose itinerant spirit is irresistible to the austere Chun Zhi, whose own fate is already deter­ mined. Mr. Mann (Zhao Xiaorui), Chun Zhi's sadistic right hand man, jeal­ ously tries to prevent the illicit affair from igniting. As soon as her womanhood is m anifested, Chun Zhi's pow er quickly diminishes. She loses all respect as a woman. To fight this disastrous affair, the elders decide that she will be allowed to marry, but a dangerous fireworks contest m ust ensue to determine a proper suitor. After succumbing to two hours of involvement, the audience should care if the dashing Niu Bao gets his delicates blown off by a crude explo­ sive, but we don't. In fact, by this point all we care about are the cred­ its. Chun Zhi's inner turmoil, her struggling duties as a woman and ruler, are not translated visually. Instead of portending like a hapless trapped in the inextricable soul progress of time, Ning Jing flails about like a schizophrenic who can­ not decide w hether to beat her young lover or madly make love to him. Chun Zhi's existence is simply absurd. How is she supposed to pass on the family fortune if the tradition of celibacy prevents it? Questions like these are never raised. A flawless performance is given by Zhao Xiaorvi as the overzealous guardian w ho can easily switch between being slovenly subservient to his "Master" and enacting callous­ ly cruel punishm ents upon his underlings. Trapped in an existence dictated by the iron whims of others, Xiaorvi almost convinces us he's an honorable man. As the passionate painter, Wu Bang's performance is more reveal­ ing during his silent meditations rather than when he's actually speaking. Unfortunately, these silent moments are few and far between. But, the tragic look he exposes dur­ ing his final defeat is easily the most poignant image in the entire film. Red Firecracker, Green Firecracker offers an authentic sense of time and place. The delicate visual intimacy that brings us exotic China is com­ mendable. The realistic portrayal of feudal politics is along the lines of Zhang Yimuo's Raise the Red Lantern; but, in his striving for the drab, somber hardship that pervades these people's lifestyle, director He Ping allows the same feelings to C n X A / A D n l / m r E D W A R D KIM Daily Texan Staff Time to kick back, pour some lemonade down your throat, jump in the shade, and pull out something nice to read. Here are some sugges­ tions to battle the heat and the slim pickings at the bookstands. PLATTE RIVER Author: Rick Bass Publisher: Ballantine Price: $10 SECRET HISTORY Author: Donna Tartt Publisher: Ivy Books Price: $6.99 Donna Tartt's much-hyped first novel takes place in a small liberal ' age in New England. The ■sor, Richard Papen, has k. lei translating Greek, and e i i kly finds himself part of the col­ lege's intellectual elite — five stu­ dents so brilliant they put Doogie Howser to shame. Together they philosophize, drink, debauch, and murder. Tartt keeps us in sweet and ago­ nizing suspense throughout most of the novel, cluing us in little by little as to the nature of the crimes. The writing is so simple and intense it quickly becomes addictive. By the end of the book, your body will have become so addicted to the opium­ like induced euphoria produced by the story, that you'll go into with­ drawals craving a work that can illicit the same high. A SIMPLE PLAN Author: Scott Smith Publisher: Chivers Price: $5.99 It'^ simple, really. Two brothers and a friend find a large sum of money (close to $4 million) in a crashed plane. All they have to do is keep their mouths shut, lay low, and the money's all theirs. What seems too easy at first turns out to be the gamble of their lives, as they try, unsuccessfully, to keep their secret contained. The horrific results are made even more shock­ ing when you realize that you might have done the same thing, given their circumstances. First-time novelist Scott Smith stuffs this tale with enough sus­ pense, intensity, evil, greed, back- stabbing, conspiracy, and plot- twists to keep your head wedged firmly between the covers of the book for hours at a time. Cognitive diabetics beware: this book is pure brain candy! What can be better on a hot sum­ mer day in the South than reading about the cool, idle times in the North? Times so cool that birds freeze in mid-air and plummet to the ground. Times so idle that you can just practice discus-throwing all day, and then go fishing for steel- head at night. The three stunning novellas in this collection bring all this to you and more. Bass' trademark magic is in top form in the first two stories. We meet a hell-bent preacher in Mahatma Joe, and a human Super­ m an in Field E vents. In the title novella, Bass examines the life of an ex-football player /w ild man, writ­ ing with a voice so strong it'll make your chest hurt. AN ANTHROPOLOGISTS ON MARS Author: Oliver Sacks Publisher: Knopf Rating: $24 America's favorite neurosurgeon and author of Awakenings cranks out yet another engrossing collection of essays. A n Anthropologist on Mars outlines the case histories of seven individuals afflicted with various brain disorders, and shows us how drastically our lives can change when the things we take for granted go wrong. Combining philosophical mus- ings with his immense empathy, Sacks introduces us to his subjects: an autistic woman who is blind to human emotions, a hippie whose amnesia originated in 1969, a painter who loses his ability to see color, an autistic savant who has remarkable drawing skills, and more. Unless you're a follower of Ayn Rand or just a cold-hearted bastard, this book should re-establish your belief in humanity. THE LONE RANGER AND TONTO ñSTFIGHT HV HEEVBV Author: Sherman Alexie Publisher!: Harper Pernennial Price: $12 The twenty-two stories in this col­ lection each manage to fill the very large and wacky shoes of its title. Here we see what present-day life is really like on the Spokane Indian Reservation, where the people drink away their thoughts and livers, dance the steps of their ancestors, and play basketball all day. The hopelessness of life here is offset by each story's lyrical prose and laugh-out-loud humor: "Last night I dreamed about television. I woke up crying." Most of the stories in this collec­ tion follow the lives of Victor, a sometimes-alcoholic, and Thomas Builds-the-Fire, whose storytelling always gets him in trouble. Native-American writer Sherman Alexie will have you laughing so hard in places, you w on't see the final blow coming until it's too late. GRAVITY'S RAINBOW Author: Thomas Pynchon Publisher: Penguin Classics Rating: $15.95 It might take you the rest of sum ­ mer to finish this one, but trust me, every mind-blowing, side-splitting, finger-gagging moment is worth it. Given the space here, a plot sum ­ mary is next to impossible; let's just say the novel takes place in war-torn Europe, and centers around Lieu­ tenant Tyrone Slothrop and his search for a German rocket. As his adventures take him down the toilet (literally), we are subjected to all kinds of craziness, namely in the form of an octopus, tell-tale erec­ tions, S&xM, zoot suits, orgies, little people and gorillas. There's also healthy doses of necro- and coprophilia. Read this one just for the coprophilia. t 2 Dozen Roses * 19.95 Cash & Carry a Casa Verde Florist 4 5 1 * 0 6 9 1 D a ily S p e c ia ls V & Guadalupe • On U T Shuttle Rt. 2:15-5:15-7:30-9:45-12:15 T J I i e W tc jV iu WiCSToCft Mallow CraveKill 2:00 4:30-7:00-9:30-12:00 The Secret Of Roan Inish 2 30 5:00 7:15-0:35 VHU 1104 Dr. James A.

Working-class hero Michael Moore, scorned lover of The Republic and a great, shambling bear of a man, has seen the num ­ bers that count. "Attem pted police arrests of our correspondents are up 300 percent over last summer," said Moore, whose T V Nation debuted Friday night on the Fox network. "And now we've got the Coast Guard after us." T V Nation is a m ordantly funny docum entary program that debuted last sum m er on NBC, and sometimes it seems like the authorities are always threatening Moore and his crew with a visit to the slammer. Chi Friday's show, correspon­ dent Janeane Garofolo ran into trouble taking a busload of Man­ hattanites to Greenwich, Conn., where the town's "public" beach is off-limits to non-residents. Turned Garofolo away, launched a seaborne invasion, but wás interdicted by the Green­ wich Police boat and a Coast Guard inflatable. TV Nation was rputed, scorned, sent packing — and Moore had made his point once again. "If this is a public beach in Greenwich, it should be open to anyone," he said. "They want to keep it white! This is about racism, a word that we don't use very much these days. Either we're tired of it and we don't want to hear it any more, or we think things are a lot better." Things actually are a lot better in another segment, where corre­ spondent Rusty Cundieff (Fear o f a Black Hat) goes to Mississippi on the eve of that state's ratifica­ tion of the 13th Amendment, abolishing slavery 130 years late Mr. Cundieff got himself some slaves — six unemployed white men. He put them to work doing yard work and shagging golf balls. A kind master, he neverthe- less carried a whip while he strolled with them in chains through a Jackson shopping mall. The time comes when Cundieff must free them. It is breathtak- ingly funny. Future episodes will feature Moore's hiring of a former KGB agent to determine who is buried in President Nixori's grave. "Were going to get our KGB agent onto this before Oliver Stone does," Moore said. The show will visit Topeka, Kan., where a high school stu­ dent applied for extra academic credit for picketing the funerals of people who died of AIDS. "He'd hold signs outside the funeral home saying, 'God hates fags.' It is the sickest, most depressing thing you'll see on this show," Moore said. TV Nation was bom out of the success of Roger and Me, his dark, humorous 1989 documentary of Moore's attempts to talk to Gen­ eral Motors CEO Roger B. Smith on the demise of his hometown, Flint, Mich. THE WORD IS OUT! MORE LONGHORNS EAT AT CONANS TH A N A N Y W H ERE ELSE.

J O B S H irin g N o w : AROUND CAMPUS T h e D a ily T e x a n Monday, July 24, 1995 P age 9 Super Bowl winner making fresh start Rypien hoping fo r success with Rams Washington's 37-24 Super Bowl vic­ tory over Buffalo. Associated Press ST. LOUIS — Just like the trans­ planted St. Louis Rams, Mark Rypi­ en is hoping to get a fresh start. Rypien and the Rams seem a per­ fect match. Since making the play­ offs in 1989, the Rams have had five consecutive losing seasons. Since being named the MVP of Super Bowl XXVII with the Washington Redskins in 1992, Rypien has had a few lost seasons of his own. "A lot of times in sports, players, organizations, anything, you don't get many second chances," Rypien said. If you do, I think you've got to make the most of them." The Rams' second chance comes in a new city where sellouts are assured — 74,000 applications were taken for 46,000 personal seat licens­ es. The change also gives Rypien a chance to make a clean break with his recent past. "It's a great situation to be in here," he said. "For some of these guys that have been in this organi­ zation for years, to be in a place where they're wanted is the most important thing. I know what it's like to be w anted." A sixth-round pick in the 1986 draft, Rypien was a hot commodity in W ashington as he led the team to playoff berths in 1990, '91 and '92. In his defining moment, he passed for 292 yards and two touchdowns in But he injured his shoulder in the '92 season, had surgery in the off­ season, responded with an off-year with four TD passes and 10 inter­ ceptions, and tumbled — forever, it seems — from favor. In 1994, he started only three games for Cleve­ land and completed only 46.5 per­ cent of his passes. He signed as an unrestricted free agent with the Rams in May only to become the likely backup for Chris Miller. That means that lately, Rypien has had a lot of time to develop his NASCAR racing team. His driver, Chad Little, won the Humm ingbird Fishfinder 500K Busch G rand National race and a $36,185 check at Talladega, Ala., Superspeedway on Saturday. Not that Rypien, 32, is conceding anything. He's played in two Pro Bowls and believes he has a lot of good years left. Moreover, Miller is injury prone — he has yet to play a full season in his nine years in the NFL. "I felt great when I left Washing­ ton,” Rypien said. "It's unfortunate you have to leave on an injury and some ill circumstances, but to have one tough year and really to say, that's it, things are over with, that does hurt an athlete."

Associated Press H O USTON — The H o u sto n A stros have been taking turn s at getting gam e-w in n in g hits, an d Sunday w as Derrick M ay's turn. M ay's tw o-out RBI single in the 10th inning rallied the H ouston A stros to a 3-2 victory over the San Francisco Giants, w ho are still w ith­ out Deion Sanders. "W e've got the w hole team con­ tributing now and that's w hy w e're w inning," said May, w ho extended his hitting streak to eight gam es. "It was just a situation of everyone doing their jobs." The A stros are m aking a habit of com eback victories. S unday's tri­ u m ph was their 11th com eback in their last 13 victories. The A stros are tied w ith C incin­ nati for the m ost extra-inning victo­ ries w ith eight each. Cincinnati also rallied to beat Chicago in 10 innings on Sunday. "This is a team of 25 players and w e'll either w in w ith all 25 or lose w ith all 25," Craig Biggio said. "W e d o n 't have three or four guys w ho can go out and hit 30 hom ers. W e've all got to contribute." After H ouston cam e back to tie the gam e in the ninth, Biggio led off the 10th w ith a single to center field off Scott Service (0-1) and then stole second base. After Jeff Bagwell flied out and Derek Bell struck out, Dave M aga­ dan w as intentionally w alked prior to M ay's single to center field. "I got the ball dow n, b u t he got the end of the bat on it and it's a knock," Service said. "It still counts. W hat can you do? To come in and give up a hit like that is just disgusting after the w ay V andy [W illiam V anLandingham ] pitched." D oug Brocail (3-1) pitched the 10th inning for the victory. Pinch-hitter John Cangelosi led off the ninth w ith a double, w as sac­ rificed to third by O rlando Miller and scored on pinch-hitter Tony Eusebio's sacrifice fly to right field. "C angelosi killed us the w hole series," G iants m an ag er D usty Baker said. "H e d id n 't beat us w ith hom e runs. H e beats us w ith w alks and singles."

Agassi wins first tournament since earning No.l ranking Associated Press d u rin g W ASHINGTON — A ndre Agassi, vom iting changeovers because of scorching 118-degree heat, w on his first tournam ent since assum ing the top ranking, beating Stefan Edberg 6-4, 2-6, 7-5 Sunday in the finals of the $675,000 Legg Mason Tennis Classic. Agassi played all four of his previ­ ous matcnes at night and w as con­ fronted Sunday w ith searing after­ noon tem peratures and hum idity. Agassi said he felt sick durin g the first and second sets, throw ing up a couple of tim es d u rin g changeovers. "It w as extrem ely hot, b u t I felt great before the m atch," he said. "T hen I started feeling w orse and w orse, and I had to m ake a decision about w hether to give it everything and possibly not have anything left for the third set or to try to save m yself a little." Agassi, w ho 14 w eeks ago ascend­ ed to No. 1, joined Jim m y Connors an d G uillerm o V ilas as the only three-tim e w inners of the 26-year old event. Agassi also w on the to u r nam ént in 1990 and 1991. H e lost service in the first gam e ol the second set, putting him behinc 4-1.

Cowboys: Dallas not ready to roll, yet Continued from page 12 "There w ere a lot of m istakes," Dallas head coach Barry Sw itzer said. "Especially w ith Troy's boys." The starting offensive u nit held starting tailback Em m itt Sm ith and starting fullback D aryl Johnston out of action to prevent the possibility of injury. The lone touchdow n of the day came w ith the third team, w hen rookie free agent O ronde G adsden burned rookie corner back A rtis H ouston on a 48-yard pass from Jason Garrett. G adsden looked as if he had another deep touchdow n a few plays later, but he fum bled the ball at the one and the referee called it an incom plete pass. W ideout Cory Fleming, w ho is battling w ith Kevin W illiams for the receiver spot, w as also second impressive. A lthough he dro p p ed one pass, he caught several others in traffic, including a 45-yard bom b from new backup quarterback W ade Wilson. Fleming has had a great cam p so far and had a great off-season," Switzer said. "I have a lot of confi­ dence and K evin Williams. We are going to be all right there." in Flem ing "I thought Fleming did great," Irvin said. "It pleased me, but it def­ initely did not surprise me." On the defensive side of the ball, linebacker Jim Schw antz shined. Schwantz, w ho is entering his sec­ ond season of professional football, seemed to be at the play every time. He m ade num erous tackles, includ­ ing a sack, and also m ade a diving interception of a deflected pass from Wilson. Veteran defensive end Charles Haley also played well in his short time, getting credit for a sack of Aik- man. S w itzer cam e aw ay from the scrim m age expressing concern w ith the condition of the team. He has repeatedly praised m any veterans for being in shape d u rin g the camp, b u t Sunday w as a far different story. "W e're not in good enough shape to go play som ebody," he said of a team that will scrim m age the H ous­ ton O ilers W ednesday night. "We h ad guys shoving and not pursuing the ball, slow getting up and getting back to the ball. W e w ere fatigued, the heat w as getting to us. But I'm not w orried about it. W e've got five w eeks to do it. T hat's w hat cam p's all about." The Cow boys' top draft selection, ru n n in g back S herm an W illiams, d id not play in the scrim m age. After signing just tw o d ays ago, W illiams w as poked in the right eye in yester­ d ay 's practice and w ore a patch on his eye durin g the scrim m age. H is injury, how ever, gave some other running backs a chance to shine. Rookie Roger G raham and veteran D avid Lang filled in fairly well. G raham had an 11-yard run and a 23-yard reception, w hile Lang caught a 15-yard pass in traffic. But overall, the scrim m age was not a m odel of perfect execution. M ost penalties w ere illegal m otion penalties on both sides of the ball. "The one good thing that w e've done all sum m er has been the offen­ sive line snap count," Sw itzer said. "O ur offensive line has done pretty well, and the defense did com e off­ sides som e today." The coaches and som e players will make their ow n evaluation of the perform ance in the film room. "W e're going to find out a little bit w hen we go back and look at the film," A ikm an said. "W hether it was a success or lack of success, that's not determ ined." "I d o n 't think any perform ance out there today should fool an y ­ body. W e've all got a lot of w ork tc do and this is just the first step in a really long process." ■ Several players w ere held o u t ol the scrim m age because of injuries Linebackers Dixon E dw ards (ham- string) and Line H ardin (shoulder), and tackles Jim H m ielew ski (neck) and M ark Tuinei (heel) are listed as day-to-day.

British Open Continued from page 12 and 14. Then he let Rocca back into the tournament when he bogeyed Nos. 16 and 17. Rocca, who bogeyed the final two holes in the 1993 Ryder Cup to lose the deciding singles match 1-down to Davis Love, needed to get his short pitch close on the 18th for the birdie to tie Daly, but he chunked it, rolling into the Valley of Sin. It seemed like the Italian had once again failed in the clutch. "It's not over yet," Daly said, w atching on television. He was right. Rocca took out his putter and rolled the ball out of the Valley, across the green and into the cup 75 feet away. As the ball disappeared into the cup, Rocca collapsed to the ground, face down, pounded his fists on the hard earth and then clasped his hands behind his head. When he finally stood, he wiped tears from his eyes. Daly, whose tradem ark is his enormous length off the tee, won this British Open as much with his short game as he did with his steady driving, handling the huge, undu­ lating greens and difficult pitch shots very well. He drove the ball brilliantly all week and was in trouble only twice in the final round, getting a break w hen his drive on No. 9 landed behind the gorse rather than in it and he was able to make a par. He played the final round without hitting any of the dozens of danger­ ous bunkers on the course, until he came to No. 17, where he hit the notorious Road Hole bunker. He had a very difficult shot but was able to escape with a bogey and a one-stroke lead, a lead Rocca erased with one superb stroke on No. 18.

Indurain's Banesto teammates led him onto the Champs to the cheers of the crowd estimated at about 500,000 people w ith num erous Spanish fans and flags in view. Throughout the Tour he was usu­ ally near the front, keeping his lead secure. But he preferred to stay out of the way Sunday of the mad sprint to the finish. A lthough Indurain's winning margin was his smallest since 1991 when he won by 3:36 over Gianni Bugno, there was still little doubt he was the dominant rider from the start. Oilers Continued from page 12 man Bruce Matthews, a seven-time lineman Pro Bowler, offensive David Williams, strong safety Blaine Bishop and tight end Pat Carter. There are many new faces in the Oilers' camp this sum m er with the two biggest additions being Mark Stepnoski and Mel Gray. Stepnoski is a seven-year veteran who won two Super Bowls with the Dallas Cowboys. Gray, a ten-year veteran from the Detroit Lions, is a punt and kickoff return specialist who returned three kickoffs for touch­ dow ns last year and led the NFL with a 24.8 kickoff return average en route to the Pro Bowl. Stepnoski hopes to help build a w inning team in Houston. "If I didn't w ant to be part of a [successful] program ..., I w ould've gone to a different team." In addition to the holdouts, the Oilers have had to cope with the loss of longtime team m ates and friends. Fan favorite Earnest Givins was released in the offseason in a cost-cutting move. Givins was picked up by the expansion Jacksonville Jaguars, a team the Oilers will meet twice this season. In conversations with Oil­ e r's receiver H ayw ood Jeffires, Givins has told him he can't wait to do the "Electric Slide," Givins' patented touchdow n celebration dance, when the two teams meet. lose "A nytim e great you receivers like [Givins] it's hard to fill those roles," Jeffires said. "I think in football you have to have quality backups and I don't think w e're at that point yet." Receiver Webster Slaughter was also released by Houston, but the Oilers hope to resign the 30-year- old for less money. this Houston has five quarterbacks in cam p including sum m er, McNair. The apparent no. 1 is NFL journeyman Chris Chandler. Other quarterbacks in camp are fourth year pros Richardson of Texas A&M and Will Furrer. Furrer played most recently with the Den­ ver Broncos. The remaining quar­ terback in camp is Lee Williamson. Fisher says the team has no plans to rush the development of McNair. According to Fisher, if McNair arrives at camp Monday and gets sufficient practice time, he might see some action in W ednesday's controlled scrimmage with the Dal­ las Cowboys.

The United States beat France 3-2 in the semifinal at the University of North Carolina at Wilmington. Having defeated France 10 straight times dating to 1966, the Americans will travel to Spain for the Nov. 25-26 final. Defending champion Spain beat Germany 3-2. "W e'll take turkeys. They don't celebrate Thanksgiving in Spain," U.S. captain Billie Jean King said. "It's pretty exciting." A big question looming for the final is the possible addition of Monica Seles, who recent­ ly announced her return to tennis. In the news conference after Sunday's victory, several players pounded the table and shouted "M on­ ica!" "I'm going to take everyone into considera­ tion," King said. "It doesn't matter how every­ one's playing at that time." Davenport put the Americans on the brink U Americans really have guts. Americans are great team players, and this team was unbelievable.” — Billie Jean King, U.S. captain of clinching with a 6-3, 4-6, 6-0 victory over Mary Pierce in the opening singles match at Trask Coliseum. Halard revived the French by rallying for a 1-6,7-5,6-1 victory over Mary Joe Fernandez. Davenport and Gigi Fernandez had just one chance to practice together for doubles. That session was cut short when the lights at Trask Coliseum went out, but the delay didn't seem to make much difference. "Americans really have guts," King said. "Americans are great team players, and this team was unbelievable. They were all great the entire week and it really paid off at the end." The United States had little trouble in the first set of the doubles match. The second set, however, was tight, with the Americans going up a break for a 3-2 lead. Moving ahead 5-3, the United States reached 15-40 before the French regrouped, winning the next four points and then break­ ing to tie the match. France pulled ahead and went up 0-30 before Davenport and Fernandez forced the tibreaker. From there, it was a U.S. runaway, with three of Davenport's serves handcuffing the French. "Lindsay just had a most unbelievable weekend and Gigi came through at the end," King said. Davenport pulled away from Pierce for a 5- 2 lead. Pierce drew to 5-3, awakening the crowd and Davenport as well to take the first set. Pierce held and broke a 4-4 tie in the sec­ ond set. She then broke again to even the match. Pierce had trouble handling Davenport's serve, and those difficulties became even more glaring in the third set. Davennnrt had twn aces and Pierce drilled three successive second serves into the net. In one stretch, Davenport w on 14 of 15 points to go up 4-0 and ease into the victory. "In the third set, when she took the break and I went to the bathroom, I got a little cold and the first four games w ent fast," Davenport said. "After that, I started getting back into the match. I w ouldn't say it's took late, but it was kind of late." Halard was trailing 1-3 and facing break point in the second set w hen she toughened. Going after every shot Fernandez delivered, Halard surged ahead. Fernandez, slowed by foot cramps at the end of the second set, broke in the third game of the last set, tem porarily halting Halard's momentum. "W hen you're motivated and you won your match, it's no problem to continue," Halard said. "I was not tired." In the Group One competition, Argentina, South Africa, Austria and Japan w on matches to advance to next year's eight-nation World Group. The Czech Republic, Belgium, Indone­ sia and Slovakia won regional qualifying matches to advance to next year's Group One. A U S T I N R E G I O N A L C L I N I C Attention UT PruCare members!

ANDREWS, Scotland — John Daly won the British Open in a four- hole playoff on Sunday after Costan- tino Rocca followed a chunked chip on No. 18 with a 75-foot putt from the Valley of Sin to send the tourna­ ment to extra holes. It seemed Daly had the tourna­ ment won when Rocca scuffed his ball into the swale in front of the green, but the Italian rolled the ball up the valley and into the hole to catch Daly at 6-under-par 282. The playoff was almost an after­ thought following the dramatics at 18. Rocca three-putted the first extra hole to fall a stroke behind, slipped two back when Daly rolled in a 40- foot birdie on the second hole and lost all hope when he hit the Road Bunker on the next hole. Daly played the four-hole playoff over the Old Course at St. Andrews in 15 strokes to 19 for Rocca. " I didn't think there was going to be a playoff,” Daly said. "I just got real strong before the playoff after he made that putt." With wind gusts nearing 40 mph blow ing virtually everyone sky high, Daly shot a steady 71 as he and Rocca, who closed with a 73, fin­ ished one stroke ahead of Mark Brooks, Steve Bottomley and third- round leader Michael Campbell. Steve Elkington and Vijay Singh were two strokes behind at 284. Corey Pavin, Mark James and Bob Estes finished at 285. "T o win a major championship sober is incredible,” said Daly, who missed the start of the 1993 PGA Tour to enter an alcohol rehabilita­ tion program. "T o bring this championship back to the States is incredible," he said, clutching the silver claret jug trophy. Daly is the first Am erican since Mark Calcavecchia in 1989 to win the British Open. It also gave the A m ericans a sweep of the Masters, U.S. Open and British Open this year after losing all four major championships last year. Daly, the bad boy of golf, now has a British Open title to go with the PGA Championship he won in 1991 and at the age of 29 he once again emerges as a player who could dom ­ inate the game for years to come. That's what was expected of him when he won the PGA in his rookie year when he was 25. But he won only one tournam ent in 1992, started 93 in rehab and ended it on suspen­ sion after picking up his ball in a tournament. Daly voluntarily sat out the final three months last year after scuffling with the father of a competitor at the World Series of Golf. That seemed all behind Daly this week as he stayed focused and dealt brilliantly with the frustrating Old Course. He played the first 15 holes of the final round 3-under-par and could have won going away if he had not missed short birdie putts at Nos. 12 Please see British Open, page 11 break SCORES BASEBALL AMERICAN LEAGUE New York 11, Texas 4 Minnesota 8, Boston 3 Seattle 6, Toronto 4 Chicago 11, Milwaukee 6 Cleveland 2, Oakland 0 California 13, Detroit 2 Baltimore 6, Kansas City 2 NATIONAL LEAGUE Houston 3, San Francisco 2 (10) Atlanta 2, San Diego 1 Montreal 8, Pittsburgh 2 Philadelphia 10, St. Louis 6 Colorado 8, New York 5 Cincinnati 7, Chicago 5 (10) Los Angeles 4, Florida 2 A’s Stewart calls it a career H OAKLAND — Dave Stew ­ art's menacing on-field glare was replaced by off-field tears Sunday as the Oakland Athletics pitcher retired after a 16-year career.

Oilers trying to leave nightmare ’94 behind CHARLES POLANSKY_______ Daily Texan Staff ~ ‘ I SAN ANTONIO — This weekend the Hous­ ton Oilers took another step toward exorcising the memories of a disastrous 1994 season. The Oilers opened their 36th training camp at Trinity University in San Antonio Saturday marking the first as an NFL head coach for Houston's Jeff Fisher. Fisher was named the interim coach last season follow ing Jack Pardee s firing and earned the right to drop the word "interim " from his title after the Oil­ ers showed signs of life at the end of last sea­ son. He hopes to improve on his 1-5 record from last year and the team 's overall record of 2-14. ' The Oilers string of seven straight playoff appearances was snapped as a result of the turmoil surrounding last season. weekend. Temperatures reached 100 degrees over the Sunday marked the team 's first day of two- a-day workouts. The first practice takes place between 8:30-11 a.m. while the afternoon ses­ sion runs from 3:30-6 p.m. With the afternoon sessions coming during the hottest time of the day, Fisher allowed the Oilers to leave their shoulder pads in the lock­ er room Sunday afternoon. "W e've expressed to them that as long as we practice with explosive movements and go full-speed and execute and we protect each other, then we 11 be able to do that in the after­ noon sometimes," Fisher said. "W e have a new offense. It's an exciting offense. It's a multiple offense, one that's based on protecting the quarterback and run­ ning the football," Fisher said. Sunday's afternoon practice ended on a high note for the offense and, specifically, quarterback Bucky Richardson. With the team finishing up practice with a two-minute drill exercise, Richardson hit rookie wide receiver Jasper Strong with a 40-yard "H ail M ary" pass for a touchdown on the final play of the day. But much of the talk surrounding camp has­ n't centered around w ho's in camp, but who isn't.

Indurain rode into Paris in Sun­ day's 20th and final stage and onto the Champs Elysees on a sunny day that made the yellow leader's jersey he wore since July 9 shine even bnghter. The Spaniard joins three other riders who won the Tour five times, but Indurain is the first to win five in a row. Maybe I won't fully realize what I've done until I get home and have time to evaluate it, just like every year,” Indurain said. Belgian Eddy Merckx, and Frenchmen Jacques A nquetil and Bernard Hinault also won five Tours, with both Merckx and Anquetil winning four straight. "To equal the record set by riders like Merckx, Hinault and Anquetil means a lot to me and I'm extreme- Maybe I won’t fully realize what I’ve done until I get home and have time to evaluate it, just like every year.” five-time winner of the Tour de France ly happy," Indurain said. "But also it s another Tour of France and that in itself is sufficient.” Residents of Villava, in northern Spain, rang church bells, popped champagne corks and fired rockets to celebrate the victory by their native son. Indurain won while finishing near the back of the pack up the Champs Elysees. But that was more than enough to maintain his lead of 4 minutes, 35 seconds over Alex Zulle of Switzerland. Zulle is the fifth different runner- up to join Indurain on the Tour's final podium. Bjame Riis of Den­ mark was third, 6:47 behind. Indurain's record victory had a tragic note with the death of Fabio Casartelli, who crashed on a descent in the Pyrenees last Tues­ day. The rider was buried Thurs­ day and in a tribute from all riders, his Motorola team m ates were allowed to win Wednesday's stage. All prize money for the day's stage was donated to Casartelli's family with the Motorola team adding its entire winnings.
