Then, when they did get invited, everyone the thought Longhorns' trip to Pennsylvania would simply represent a final hur­ rah to a disappointing season. that Think again. Texas, who was seeded 10th in the East regional, came away with a pair of huge victories in the NCAA Tournament, including Sunday's 82- 81 triumph over Coppin State. Chico Vazquez intercepted an inbounds pass to prevent a potential buzzer-beater in that contest, and the Homs secured their first trip to the Sweet 16 since 1990. "We're very fortunate to come out a winner," said coach Tom Penders. "[Coppin State's] one of the first teams we've played all year that have attacked us like that." The smaller, and often quicker, Eagles had drawn within a single point by connecting on two three- pointers in the final minute. After Antoine Brockington made die sec­ ond one with 42.1 seconds left, the Coppin State defensive pressure forced a Texas turnover to give the Eagles a final chance. Horns guard Reggie Freeman then blocked Broddngton's attempt with 4.2 seconds remaining, but the ball went out of bounds. Coppin State's inbounds pass was altered by Sheldon Quarles, and the errant throw wound up in the hands of Vazquez, sealing die victory. "We were switching off the screens," Vazquez said. "And I just reacted to the pass and stole the ball." The two teams had advanced to the second game in the East region with a pair of upset wins on Friday. Reggie Freeman scored 31 points to lead Texas over seventh-seeded Wisconsin, and die Eagles used their helter-skelter style to shock second- seeded South Carolina. And in the first half on Sunday, die game certainly lived up to its up­ tempo expectations. Before halftime, the two teams had combined for an amazing 55 shots, with die Homs tak­ ing a 49-39 ad vantage at the break. But die Eagles opened the second half with a 17-6 run, much to the delight of the crowd, who had adopt­ ed die tiny Baltimore school as its own for the weekend. The teams then traded baskets with Brockington (27 pts, 6 rebs) and Freeman (22 pts, 9 rebs) carrying much of the offensive burden. "I think it was a great thrill," Coach Ron "Fang" Mitchell said of the fans' support. "Where I come from, if I get 20 people cheering for us, I'm excited. Tonight we had 17,000-plus. I was ecstatic." Yet die only ones who were ecstat­ ic after the final buzzer were the Homs and the few dozen fans that made the trek to Pittsburgh. Texas had lost in the second round of the NCAAs in every season that Freeman and his fellow seniors had played in prior to Sunday, but next weekend they'll be in Syracuse, N.Y., taking on Louisville in the Sweet 16.

ASSOCIATED PRESS IBSfwrnn.nl HÜf'3 Plagiarism incidents on rise Frat banned for hazing CHRISTINE SCHMIEDEHAUS___________ Daily Texan Staff Former members of Pi Kappa Alpha returned from Spring Break Sunday to find their fraternity's UT registration canceled until the year 2000, follow­ ing a two-month investigation of alleged hazing vio­ lations committed last fall. UT Dean of Students Sharon Justice said her office completed its investigation of the fraternity last Thursday, reporting it has confirmed 11 hazing inci­ dents which occurred last semester. Cancellation of a fraternity's registration is the maximum penalty dealt by the Dean of Students Office for hazing vio­ lations. "I hope this action sends a clear message" to other UT fraternities, Justice said Sunday. Several individual members were also punished for hazing violations by her office, Justice said, but she declined to give any names or details. Justice said most of the information her office col­ lected was from anonymous tips. "More people are forthcoming" with reports of hazing violations to her office, Justice said Sunday. Pi Kappa A lpha m embers plan to appeal the penalty, not the findings, said Cinco Cocke, a 1983 UT graduate helping former Pi Kappa Alpha mem­ bers organize to appeal Justice's decision. "Because it's a penalty against people who didn't haze — the people who hazed have been kicked out — it's not fair to the guys still in the chapter," Cocke said, adding out of the original 170 members, 50 members remained last week. Cocke said the Dean of Students Office was aware that the fraternity had already removed the mem­ bers who committed last fall's hazing offenses before the University canceled its registration. However, he Please see Hazing, page 2 MARK MCKENZIE______________________ Daily Texan Staff Plagiarism may be on the rise at the University according to numbers recently compiled by the Office of the Dean of Students. During the 1995-96 academic year, the University had 50 reports of students found guilty of plagiarism. The violations are almost double the amount reported in 1987-88, which was 26. Kevin Price, assistant dean of students, said when comparing the statistics over a ten-year period, "Last year they were considerably higher." In fact, this is the highest count on record since the dean of students started compiling statistics on plagia­ rism in 1987-88. Price said preliminary figures show that last year, 13 people were suspended and two expelled for plagiariz­ ing. The most common penalty was a fine, Price said. Belen Rodriguez, a biology sophomore, said, "I wasn't aware that it was that major of a problem." According to the University's section on scholastic Hussein visits Israel, mourns with families Associated Press BEIT SHEMESH, Israel— Jordan's King Hussein knelt in mourning Sunday with the families of seven Israeli schoolgirls gunned down by a Jordanian soldier and said they were all "members of one family."

Despite the sorrow, I say this: I ho r.e and believe in King Hussein and a real peace." * Hussein's rare visit, intended to re-establish the credi­ bility of Jordan and its leader as peacemakers, came at the lowest point in relations between Jordan and Israel since die two countries made, pci :e in 1994.

Like universities such as Harvard and Princeton, the University has experienced significant grade infla­ tion over the last decade. There has been a .23 increase in the overall GPA in the last twelve years. The average GPA in 1984, as noted by the Office of Institutional studies, was 2.65 in the fall semester. The GPA for fall 19% was 2.88. Concerned w ith GPA inflation last year, deans and administrators supported the idea of an investiga­ tion of grading policies throughout campus. A year later, Romo said grade inflation is less im p o rtan t th an issues like academic advising. "We never launched any particu­ lar study concerning grade inflation this year," said Romo. "We sense that this is not a problem or at least is a problem that is com m on to most universities." Romo said student groups have not "been coming around lately to talk on this specific subject." A reason for grade inflation can be a ttrib u te d to the size of the University, Romo said.

"You have a right to say, 'This is how to cheat he and steal'" she said. But you cannot give your ideas, your research paper, to another student, Harper said.In this instance, free speech rights can be regulated, she said, because the government has a compelling state interest to maintain the integrity and validity of the institu­ tions of higher education. Inflation Continued from page 1 end up having a high number that believe students should receive A's and B's," Romo said. "The majority of the faculty is conscientious enough to be fair and not arbitrary." The faculty discourages limits set by instructors like allowing only 5 per­ cent of a class to be eligible for an A, Romo said. "Some of the elite cam puses are having much more of a problem than w e are, Romo said. "We now have better students coming through with higher expectations. There may be frustration concerned with the faculty for not keeping up with that." A report from the U niversity of California at Los A ngeles H igher Education Research Institute released last fall confirms that a higher percent­ age of freshmen coming into college are "A students." The study involved 500 universities, including the University. Freshmen have reported higher grades this year than in any of the previous surveys. Student Government President Jeff Tsai said many students are unaware of their instructor's curve policy due to the confusion between the faculty and the Dean of Students Office. "Grading policies need to be effec­ tiv ely com m unicated," Tsai said. "Professors definitely need more con­ trol over grading. It is not the answer to create a mold some students can't fit." Tsai, then President-elect, also said he was concerned about effectively communicating grading policies to students from the beginning.

"We have peace, but I don't have my daughter any­ more." "I feel that I've lost a child," Hussein replied. At one point Alia passed out for about a minute while Hussein spoke to her husband.

"They are trying to mete out pun­ ishment that is justified," Cocke said. Vice President for Student Affairs Jim Vick, who would personally hear the appeal, said, "This is one of the worst cases w e have seen in recent years." Earlier this spring, the Dean of Students Office canceled the Texas Cowboys' registration for five years after it found the spirit group had com m itted hazing violations last summer, resulting in the death of Gabe Higgins, a pledge. Justice said the University canceled the Cowboys' registration for a longer period, not because the death of a stu­ dent was involved, but because she was able to determine that hazing had clearly occurred. Normally, the office investigates off-campus incidents only if hazing or possibly sexual assault, depending on the circum stances, has occurred, Justice said. The recent cancellations are two notches in the belt for the University in its efforts to take control of hazing and alcohol abuse in UT fraternities and sororities over the last 10 years. established Former U T President W illiam C unningham the Presidential Commission on Fraternal Organizations in 1987 to evaluate the University's response to hazing and alcohol violations by UT fraternities Secondhand Scholarly & Paperback Books and sororities. Cunningham asked the com m ission to specifically address the problems of hazing, alco­ hol abuse and "disruptive behavior" within UT fraternal organizations. In its report, the commission found that "...The University's recognition for academic achievement is adverse­ ly affected by a reputation for extrem e student hazing, alcohol abuse, and extravagant outlays of money for parties by the Greek social fraternities...." The commission also found that "Underage and excessive drinking present problems of tort liability for in d ivid u als, fraternities and The University." The commission recommended the University establish closer ties and monitoring of UT Greek organiza­ tions through the Dean of Students Office. Justice said she thinks hazing inci­ dents are no longer all that common among UT fraternities. Jay Pavlica, a UT molecular biology junior and member of Phi Kappa Phi, said the Pikes' punishment makes all Greeks look bad. "When something like this hap­ pens to Greek organizations on cam­ pus, it makes it that much easier for others to stereotype the Greeks," Pavlica said. "But it's not something that you can use to categorize all fra­ ternities." Should Pi Kappa Alpha members decide to recolonize the UT chapter in 2000, they may be re-registered on probational status, and the chapter will have to meet a list of probation conditions, including participating in the Greek Leadership Conference in spring 2000 and risk management seminars.

Marian Wright Edelman, founder and presid ent of the C h ild ren 's Defense Fund in Washington, D.C., will speak on society's responsibili­ ty to children at the 114th UT Spring Commencement May 17. UT P resid en t R obert B erd ah l selected Edelm an as part of the 1996-97 Year of the Child celebra­ tion. The University has hosted sev­ eral events during the fall and spring semesters relating to the care and education of children. "A s stu dents are grad u atin g, they're going to be thinking about shaping their career," said Chandra Muller, assistant professor of sociol­ ogy and member of the Year of the Child steering committee. "I hope that her speech w ill make them think about the kinds of things they can do with their careers to help children." Edelman founded the Children's Defense Fund in 1973 to serve as an advocacy o rg an izatio n for c h il­ dren's rights and education. The nonprofit agency focuses on policies that affect large numbers of chil­ dren, especially those who are poor, minorities or disabled. The organization, headquartered in Washington, D.C., works to edu­ cate society about the needs of chil­ dren and for the passage of legisla­ tion designed to help them. Health insurance for children is one of the group's top priorities in 1997. Edelm an's address w ill follow Berdahl's speech during the com­ mencement, which begins at 8 p.m. May 17 on the South Terrace of the Main Building. Edelman graduated from Spel- man College and Yale Law School and directed the Center for Law and Education at Harvard Universi­ ty for two years. In the 1960s, she became the first black woman admitted to the Mis­ sissippi Bar Association. She directed the NAACP Legal D efense and E d u catio n al Fund office in Jackson, Miss., and was a counsel for the Poor People's March that Martin Luther King Jr. began organizing before his death. She has received numerous hon­ orary degrees and awards, includ­ ing the M acA rth u r Fou n d ation Prize Fellowship, and has written several books concerning families, children and social change. Students can find other informa­ tion about the 1997 Spring Com ­ mencement, May 16-18, through a World Wide Web page accessible from the UT home page.

The Miata Club, with 10 mem­ bers, was formed exclusively to cel­ ebrate the Mazda Miata. "Miatas are absolutely the most fun car to drive," said Bill Childress, marketing junior and vice president of the Miata Club. "It is not a car for everybody, so Miata drivers generally tend to stick together. That is why we started the club." The club was formed two weeks ago between friends with the same idea. Childress said he and Miata Club President Kurt Sommers decided to join a M iata Club in D allas, but "because we are in Austin most of the time, we decided we would start our own here." Patterned after the Dallas chapter, Lonestar Miatas, the club's primary activities are weekend drives, pic­ nics and discussions about Miatas. "C u rren tly we like to drive around the West Lake Hills area. There are a lot of nice, winding dri­ ves," Childress said. "The greatest number of cars we have had drive with us are four, but I went to one in Dallas and they had like 50 cars." Childress said the Miata Club has been trying to find a way to be involved in the Forty Acres Fest, the University's annual spring fling. "We wanted to drive our cars up the West Mall, but so far we haven't had a really p ositiv e resp on se," Childress said. "I ca n 't rea lly blam e them because a couple of cars on the West M all d o esn 't really co n stitu te a booth." A nother unusual sm all group, The Ransom Notes, is an a capella choir. This club has about 13 members and holds auditions periodically for new members. "W e w anted a sm all, versatile group that could walk around and sing anywhere," said Kevin Watts, a Plan II senior and co-director of the Ransom Notes. "We want to stay small. It would hurt us musically if we got much bigger." "We try to perform for the enjoy­ ment of all University students," Watts said. "There are huge choirs, but we are the first small a capella group on campus. We are proud of that." Watts said the performers wanted recognition as a student organiza­ tion so they could take advantage of all of the privileges. The group plans to eventually go on tour and might even record a CD, he said. "Those are long-term goals, but we'll be around for the duration," Watts said. Masquerade Austin, a live-action, ro le-p lay in g group, is an oth er unique stu dent o rg an iza tio n on campus. "We play a game called 'Vampire: The M a sq u era d e,'" said M iguel Duran, a Plan II sophomore and sto­ ryteller for the organization. "It is a mixture of traditional role- playing games and impromptu the­ ater. You think of a character you would like to be for the night and you go with it." There is no script — the players perform entirely off the cuff, accord­ ing to the rules of the game. "Part of the fun is to not let peo­ ple know what is going on when we are playing," Duran said. "W e like to try to fit in even though we are wearing costumes. That is part of the plot. We are vam­ pires who are masquerading as real people." Masquerade Austin has a mem­ bership of about 25 UT students, but members interact with many more students over the Internet, Duran said. "W e have a global-w id e gam e going on," he said. "It is really cool. Something that happens to the plot in Austin could affect the plot over in Washington, D.C." Duran said his organization does not encourage any physical contact at all. He said members play a game of rock-paper-scissors to decide who wins a conflict. "People often have a misconcep­ tion about role-playing groups," Duran said. "W e don't believe we are vam­ pires. We have a lot of fun with our ch aracters, but once the game is over, we leave our ch aracters behind." The organization intends to stick around for a while, Duran said. "The game never really ends," he said. "T h e story ju st keeps on going."

Drag renovations delayed 44 You just never know what will happen, and if JAMIE STOCKWELL______________ Daily Texan Staff Plans to clean up the Drag have been postponed until January 1998 due to a lack of time and concent over unknown underground utilities, said an architect for the engineering firm hired to reno­ vate the street as part of the Guadalupe Street Redevelopment Program. Kit Krankel, urban designer and pro­ ject d ire c to r for Black and V ernooy A rchitectural Firm, said the company has fallen too far behind planning the project to begin renovations to the street as previously scheduled. The o rig in al g ro u n d b re a k in g date was set for May 1997. "Everyone feels this is just too impor­ tant to be done hastily," Krankel said. "T here's ju st too m uch w ork to be done before August," he said. "W e'd hate for incom ing freshm en and transfer students to get their first glimpse of the Drag as a torn-up con­ struction area."

"You just never know what will hap­ pen, and if by some chance we do bump in to so m e th in g , it w ill take a few months to fix, and so a project that was only supposed to take four months may take an additional year," Hodges said.

Cathy Norman, vice president of Uni­ versity Area Partners, a task force com­ prised of merchants, business owners, and religious organizations that are sit­ uated in the campus area, said the task force was founded in order to make the Drag more student-friendly. "Many students are concerned w ith their safety w hile w alking dow n the Drag and so they choose to walk around it in order to get to West Campus," Nor­ man said.

By the time the Eagles had taken the Civic Center floor, they had already won the hearts of nearly all 17, 509 fans, a group that was over four times Coppin State's enroll­ ment (3,650). The Eagles' Cinderella run began on Friday, when they ruined every­ one's plans by knocking off second- seeded South Carolina. Coppin State, who was seeded 15th in the East, uti­ lized a no-holds-barred running style that could even make TJ T coach Tom Penders cringe to earn the win and the local fans' admiration. Perhaps what endeared the fans to the Eagles most was the simplicity of the group, one which marveled at the amenities of other schools, such as weight rooms and exercise bikes. "ITs true that Coppin State does­ n 't even have a band," said Eagle guard Reggie Welch. "We borrowed ours from Morgan State."

The Stars scored four rebound goals and took advan­ tage of the absence of Mario Lemieux and Jaromir Jagr from the Penguins' lineup for a 6-2 victory Sunday night. "It was good to see our shot total up as high as it was," said coach Ken Hitchcock after the Stars amassed a 38-18 shots-on-goal edge. "Our game is putting shots up and putting in rebounds.

But whatever you call it, be sure to call it downright eerie. The third-seeded Texas women's basket­ ball team is set to take on the sixth-seeded Notre Dame Fighting Irish in the second round of the NCAA tournament on Monday — St. Patrick's Day. The Lady Longhorns are 2-0 all-time on Mar. 17, but they have yet to spend that day with a bunch of Irish and their legendary serendipity. "I haven't been known for my luck," UT coach Jody Conradt said. "I don't think we have any green uniforms in the closet we can bring out." Ironically, it was on that holiday last year that Notre Dame was eliminated from the NCAA playoffs, by virtue of an 82-67 loss to Texas Tech. "Green is not my color," Irish post Katry- na Gaither said. But the St. Patty's Day factor is not the only strange twist to Monday's match-up. In actuality, the second-round showdown has as many sub-plots as a week's worth of Gen­ eral Hospital episodes. ■ Almost Irish Eyes — Texas forw ard Amie Smith attended a private Catholic high school in Dallas and was once bent •. ;v"‘ on attending N otre Dame.

Lady Homs tennis team loses close battle to Duke Blue Devils MICHAEL CHAMY__________ Daily Texan Staff The Lady Longhorns missed an opportunity for revenge Sunday at the Lakeway tennis center, as they dropped an excruciatingly close match to No. 3 Duke, 5-3. The Texas doubles team of Farley Taylor and Cristina Moros had a chance to make amends for their dra­ matic NCAA quarterfinals loss to the Blue Devils, but fell short. Duke's team of Karen O'Sullivan and Luanne Spadea, ranked No. 9 nationally, defeated the Texas duo 8-6. "When you lose a match that dose, I think that's fixe most frustrating thing," Moros said. "I know we were there, and I definitely know we can beat them. We're just practicing for May. The dif­ ference is that in May, we will be play­ ing at the top of our games." Laura Berendt and Sandy Sureep- hong, ranked No. 8, had a chance to force a deciding third doubles match, but were overwhelmed 8-0 by Duke's Karen Miller and Vanessa Webb. "I thought they were intimidat­ ed," said Texas Head Coach Jeff Moore. "Karen Miller is probably the best college tennis player in the last four years. She showed today why she has been ranked among the top 100 players in the world." Miller is currently ranked No. 2 in the nation. Webb was formerly No. 1, before a shoulder injury that has kept her cm the shelf for the past six weeks. Miller gave Duke the early advan­ tage by outlasting Moros in No. 1 singles 6-2, 6-4. Moros and Miller both grew up in Sarasota, Fla., competing in junior tournaments against each other "She's a really good player, and she really knows how to mess u p my game a little bit," Moros said. "It was a close match. I just missed the shot I needed to put it away." "Her attitude got to her a little bit," Miller said. "She was up, and she missed a few shots, and she got a little angry.

Austin outplayed Hakeem Olajuwon as the Miami Heat defeated the Houston Rockets 101- 80 to move into first place in the Atlantic Divi­ sion. Miami had been tied with the New York Knicks, who lost at home to the Nets. "I think this was die first team we've played against [since Mourning was hurt] with a real premier center," Heat coach Pat Riley said. "Hakeem would have made it much more diffi­ cult on him if he would have caught it in die post but we didn't let him do that." Austin scored 18 points and pulled down nine rebounds in his first matchup with Olajuwon, who led Houston with 20 points but fouled out with 1:52 to play. Olajuwon had only one point in the final quarter. "There's no doubt in my mind that since Zo went out, that was the best game we've played together as a team," Riley said. "We needed it today, we had to have it." The Rockets dropped their second in a row, while Miami won its third straight. The Heat is 7-4 since Mourning tore a tendon in his right foot during a game against Portland on Feb. 21. Against the league's top defensive rebounding team, Miami controlled the glass and outrebound- ed Houston 52-34. Jamal Mashbum led the Heat on the boards with 12 rebounds, a season-high. P.J. Brown had nine to go with his 15 points. Tim Hardaway led die way for Miami scoring a game-high 31 points and dishing out nine assists. Miami, which beat Houston for the fourth straight time, led 73-65 after three quarters and extended its lead to as many as 21 in the fourth. "They put you on national TV because you're one of the elite teams in the league," said Hard­ away, who was 12-of-25 from me field, includ­ ing 6-of-13 from beyond the 3-point arc. "We showed that against a quality team in the Hous­ ton Rockets." Houston played without Diaries Barkley, but had Clyde Drexler bade in the starting lineup. Drexler, who had been sidelined for six weeks by a hamstring injury, had 12 points in 31 minutes. "We didn't play well, we didn't rebound well and, as a result, we lost," Drexler said. "That's all you can Say. We've got to get better." The Heat ted by three after the first quarter and were up 49-45 at the half. Austin was able to neu­ tralize Olajuwon inside and Drexler was largely ineffectual. Hardaway was on his game, hitting for 18 paints in the first half on 7-of-ll shooting. Houston opened up an eight point lead, 42-34 with 4:24 left in the second quarter, but it was short-lived. With Austin taking care of filings in the middle, fiie Heat refused to double-team CHajuwon and Hardaway was free to shoot from the perimeter. "He's a true leader for that team.

Texas has not made it to the third round since 1990, while it would be virgin territory altogeth­ er for the Notre Dame program. The Longhorns dropped four second-round games over that seven-year span, losing most recently to Kansas a year ago in Lawrence, Kan. The Irish were denied a Sweet 16 berth by last year's loss to Texas Tech, and Monday's contest with Texas will be only the second sec­ ond-round game in Notre Dame women's basketball history. is on "The pressure them," Notre Dame coach Muffet McGraw said. "They are the host team, they have the higher seed, they have the crowd. They are expected to win." Bears nip Horns 7-4 Associated Press WACO — Baylor second baseman Eric Nelson collected three hits and two RBIs en route to the Bears' 7-4 victory over the 16th-ranked Long­ horns Sunday. Pitcher Michael Bradford (2-2) scattered five hits and two walks and allowed only two runs in six innings for the Bears (14-7,7-2 Big 12 Conference). The Longhorns (18-8, 2-4) started Chris Speerstra after he got the final eight outs Saturday to seal Texas' 6- 5 win over Baylor. But Speerstra (6-2) wasn't nearly as effective Sunday, giving up eight hits and three runs in 4 1 /3 innings. The Bears, who finished with 14 hits, jumped on Speerstra in the first inning as Nelson and James Blair singled and Jeff Moore ripped a two- tun double. Jeremy Dodson then blasted his sixth homer of the year, a solo shot over the right field fence, in the sec­ ond inning. The Bears opened up a 5-2 lead with run-scoring singles by Jon Topolski and Nelson in the sixth. But Texas pinch hitter Joey Hart blasted a two-run homer off Jason Jennings in the top of the eighth to cut Bay- BIG 12 BASEBALL lor's lead to 5-4. Before Hart" s two-out homer, Jen­ nings had allowed only one earned run in 16 1 /3 innings. In the bottom of the eighth, Nel­ son and Jennings hit run-scoring sin­ gles off Texas closer Eric French to open up a 7-4 lead before 1,592 fans at Ferrell Field. Texas Tech 6, Iowa State 4 ■ In Lubbock, an RBI single by Josh Bard in the bottom of the fifth inning proved to be the margin Texas Tech needed to seal a two-run win Sunday over Iowa State and a three-game sweep of the Cyclones. A leadoff double by Jess Oliveras and a Joe Dillon single put Tech run­ ners at first and third before Jason Landreth's sacrifice fly forged a 4-4 tie. Bard then stepped to the plate and singled with two outs on the score­ board. The Red Raiders (18-2, 5-1) added an insurance run in the eighth on an RBI single by Keith Ginter, who extended his hitting streak to 14. HEEEE CLUB SPEED M O T O R 8 P O R T S NOW O PEN!

Sophomore Laura Berendt then pulled off perhaps her greatest vic­ tory of the season, knocking off Spadea 2-6, 6-2, 6-4. "I just stayed aggressive going to the net," said Berendt, who won the last four games to clinch the win. "I think that I just wanted it more. We were really pumped up about this match. I just wanted to go in there and give it everything I had." Senior Farley Taylor dropped her fourth singles match in a row, losing to O'Sullivan, 4-6, 6-4, 1-6. "She's making good progress," said Moore of Taylor's play. "She's close in almost all of her matches. She just needs to continue to get more matches so that she plays the big points more aggressively, and that confidence just comes with time, and more matches." Webb said the match was one the Blue Devils always mark on their calendar. "I think any time you can come out with a win against Texas, espe­ cially in Texas, it's big," she said. "I think every time we play, there are a lot of bragging rights at stake. It's a big match. It7s one of our biggest, if not the biggest every year." Webb said playing at die indoor courts, a move forced by rainy weath­ er, was somewhat less exciting. "I think it sort of detracts from the victory a little bit," she said. "But we'll take it." The Longhorns played another squeaker Saturday at Penick-Allison against Wake Forest, winning 5-4 behind wins by Moros, Sureephong and freshman Michelle Faucher, who also won Sunday. The doubles teams, however, decided the match Saturday, as Tay­ lor and Moros defeated Deamon Deacons Lule Aydin and Nicole Kai- wai 8-2, and Sureephong and Berendt defeated Maggie Harris and Amy Jensen 8-4.

"Because we lost Brad we weren't able to throw out our lowest score and were forced to count all four players' scores." Rain forced the cancellation of the final round and the results through the second round stood as final. New Mexico won the tournament and Texas was forced to settle for 10th. No Texas player finished in the top 20 in the individual race. Texas will next host the Morris Williams Intercollegiate tournament, its first tournament of the spring, March 24-25 at the Hills of Lakeway. The women's team followed a similar pattern as the men, jumping to a lead in the first round and falling as gressed. Longhorn senior Heather Bowie, a three-time all-American, fired a one- over par 74 in helping Texas take a one snot lead over TCU going into the second round. Junior Jennifer Waterhouse also paced the Horns with a 76. Texas slipped into a Second place tie with TCU on Saturday as the North Carolina Tar Heels took over first. The Heels lead was only one shot and Texas was still in solid posi­ tion heading into Sunday's final round. In the final round, TCU fired a 311 to win the team title, holding off the Duke Blue Devils by one shot. North Carolina dropped to third and Texas finished fourth. Bowie fired a final round three- over par 76 to finish two strokes behind Marcy Newton of North Car­ olina in the battle for the individual crown. Newton trailed Bowie by two strokes going into the final round but shot a 72 to overtake Bowie. Waterhouse finished 10th overall after a final-round 81. The fourth place finish frustrated coach Susan Watkins. "Overall I was disappointed," Watkins said. "We need to get all our players on the same page and have five good scores on the same day." The next tournament for the Long­ horns is the Liz Murphey Collegiate in Athens, Georgia, on April 11-13.

"We wanted to get into the game early and not let them stick around," UT guard Danielle Viglione said. "That would get them confident and make them play well. We wanted to play our game and match their intensity." Texas' 66 points were the fewest scored by a UT team in a tournament victory, but the Longhorns' suffocat­ ing defense was enough to put away the overmatched Bobcats. The Horns chalked up NCAA tournament record lows in opponent points scored (38), opponent field goals made (15), and opponent field goal percentage (24.6 percent). Texas also recorded seven blocked shots, tied for fiie most ever in UT tour­ ney play, and swiped 12 steals in all. "The tempo of the game was set by our defensive intensity," said Texas coach Jody Conradt. "I was pleased with our focus defensively, and I think we made it hard for them to score." Much of the Longhorn defensive effort was focused on the Bobcats' two leading scorers, forward Jerri Cooper (14.3 ppg) and point guard Yolanda Wilkerson (13.3 ppg). Using a tag team of freshman Edwina Brown and sophomore point guard Vanessa Wallace on Cooper, and with power forward Amie Smith shadowing Wilkerson, the Longhorns were able to hold the duo to only four points on two-of-19 shooting. "We just focused on keeping the ball out of their hands," Conradt said. "And after we established the Hpf^ncivp effort in the first half, I Texas led from the outset, rattling off a 20-8 run to open the contest, and it became apparent that the Bob­ cats were simply out of their league. For most of the first half, SWT concentrated on the Horns' perime­ ter players, leaving UT's Angela Jackson to have her way with the Cats' undersized frontcourt. The 6-4 Longhorn center took advantage of a bevy of one-on-one opportunities in the opening period, scoring 12 of her game-high 14 points during that span. Jackson also grabbed 11 rebounds for the game, picking up her 11th career double-double. "I loved it," Jackson said of her first-half field day. "I was just like, 'Now is the time. Give me the ball.' Especially when it is one-on-one. I wanted to take as many shots as I could." After the intermission, Bobcat coach Linda Sharp altered her strate­ throwing an array of zone gy, defenses and double-teams at Texas' big girls, but this time it was UT's sharpshooters exacting most of the damage. Not to be outdone, Viglione matched her taller teammate by recording 12 of her 14 points in the second half, while hitting four of five 3-point attempts in the final 20 minutes. "Viglione got loose in the second half and hit those threes," Sharp said. "It opened up the scoring and broke up the zone we had started playing. "We had to pack it in and play a zone, and that's when they began Southwest Texas, a Southland conference school making its first- ever NCAA appearance, finished its season at 17-12, while Texas improves to 22-7 and will play its second-round game Monday night at the Erwin Center.

At a convention where most are seeking deals with the man downstairs, it was downright bizarre to hear Carl Perkins evangelize during the open­ ing remarks of this year's conference. Perkins lacks the cool of another Sun Records vet, Johnny Cash, who gave the keynote speech two years ago, and his down-home demeanor and bad toupee seemed to put the audi­ ence ill at ease. Remember, this is a man w hose Tennessee hometown built the Carl Perkins M unicipal Auditorium in a strip mall. It was entertaining to watch the reaction of a sophisticated (or rather, jaded) audience to a man who really epito­ mized rock 'n' roll's beginnings — kind of trashy, not from a great fami­ ly, but completely sincere in its inten­ tions. Thanking God for your career in front of a bunch of sinners was an incredibly courageous move, if not an exceptionally wise one. Perhaps Qod was punishing those unconverted by Perkins' speech with the utterly miserable weather that put a damper on the weekend, an outdoor venue like Stubb's suddenly became far less fun than the packed but warm interior of Emo's. Friday night saw the placement of butane heaters around Stubb's big backyard in order to keep C apitol's party guests from freezing, but they posed their own hazard as a ton of hay had been spread around the stage area. A little physical danger always height­ ens the fun of a rock show, especially when Skeleton Key is playing. They made it to Austin last fall with Rail­ road Jerk, and will be com ing through town later this month. Two spastic percussionists and two geeky frontmen made the most interesting rpek music to be heard this weekend. Their songs are part artsy noise, part prog-rock, part rock bombast and passion, and all good. With all the chaos in the music, it's still pulled together as tightly as the JB's, and is almost as danceable in an odd way. The crowd reaction was extremely positive, so their label, Capitol, defi­ nitely has a. buzz to work with, but it will still be a challenge to sell such an idiosyncratic group. C hicago's Chris Holmes, of Sabalon Glitz and Yum Yum, per­ formed solo as Ashtar Command costumed as a mad scientist — or garbageman perhaps, as both wear coveralls. His set was a hypnotic drone created by a small arsenal of synth, keyboard and drum machine, very spacey and enveloping. Maggie Mae's at 10 p.m. on a Friday, howev­ er, was far from the best setting for this sort of music. Providing the weekend's musical peak, and possibly the best jazz show Austin will see this year, Matthew Shipp and William Parker performed at midnight to a full house at the Vic­ tory Grill. The two have collaborated on a number of projects as a duo and with others, developing a deep rap­ port that enables each piece to sound as spontaneous as a passionate improvisation. Shipp is a pianist who explores the instrument's percussive qualities in depth, and Parker draws a melodious voice from the bass, hol­ lering along with it at times while playing. Although they were relying on borrowed instruments, unable obviously to carry much from New York, all handicaps seemed to disap­ pear and the set was pure magic. They received a well-deserved stand­ ing ovation from the spellbound crowd. Afterwards it was hard to concen­ trate on much, but artist and Mekon Jon Langford played with members of Austin's Big Foot Chester at the Hole in the Wall, providing a lovely reprise of their fantastic country- punk and folk set from last fall. Numerous Johnny Cash songs were performed, such as Folsom Prison Blues and Cocaine Blues, along with a couple of classic Mekons tunes. Big Foot Chester provided a perfect red­ neck backdrop to Langford's take on American roots music. Saturday's most entertaining event Was the Trouser Press party at the Electric Lounge as the rock critics came out to play — literally. Ira Rob- bjns, Michael Azzerad and Jim Merlis provided a live karaoke soundtrack of new wave hits as a series of pro­ fessional and not-so-professional singers stepped to the mike.

Apologies to Matthew Shipp, the Digital Hardcore thing, and all the locals whom I didn't catch. Zeke — Of course, this peren­ nial favorite pleased the crowd by jamming out some of the fastest, catchiest, vulgar punk 'n' roll around. There was really nothing to this set that Zeke has­ n't displayed the last four times it's played Emo's, but it's always good — something you just have to see (and jump around) to real­ ly experience. Shallow, North Dakota — These guys were nothing short of awesome, and were the only unknown this year to be even half-way decent. As a descrip­ tion, the best would be the fact that the guitarist played the same three-chord pattern alone over and over for 12 minutes during song. M elvins/Strangulated Beatoffs style noise insanity, from Cana­ da, believe it or not. same the Thrall — Though Mike Hard actually kept his clothes on this time, Thrall was just as great as it always is. Hard's booming voice grounds out his message — beware of God, beware of Satan, beware of everything — as the band pounded out the perfect compliment to his insane preach­ ing. It was great to see someone finally messing with the badge- wearing morons of SXSW by reaching out into the audience and physically interacting with them. Firewater — Though 3 /4 of the big names from the band weren't there (Duane Denison and Jim Kimball are doing Jesus Lizard things, and Yuval Gabay was Coughing his Soul out), Firewa­ ter sounded tight, though the expected fireworks weren't pre­ sent. Instead, it was the slightly the menacing soul-sound of complete with albums, the band's buddy Jim Thirwell (of Foetus, Etc.) dancing his ass off alone in the front row. Fluffy — This is the new Spice Girls — feckless English pop- punk by cute girls with so much snotty attitude dripping out it's a wonder they can breadle. The only bonus here — besides the CNN camera crashing to the floor in all the jostling — was see­ ing Austin Chronicle writer Tim Stegall kissing the band's collec­ tive ass along with about 30 Limey losers after the show while completely glammed out in dripping eye-liner and a sequined jacket. Peter Jefferies — Jefferies was in fine form — playing his dis­ torted keyboard along with a snare or so while singing his quirky pop songs. It's good to see this New Zealander in town, turning up quite a bit to show Austinites that it is possible to just get up and play, no matter what the circumstances. Just keep him away from the liquor. Soak — Just for the record, this is easily one of the worst bands I've ever had the misfortune to encounter. Hip-hop showcase, Em o's, Friday night — This was easily the coolest thing happening during SXSW — despite the con­ stant blunt smoking and a few arrests at the door once capacity had been reached. The very nature of hip-hop made it impossible to figure who was doing what all the time — what with people jumping on stage or passing the mic to the crowd for newer rhymes — but it was cool. Some of it was wretchedly bad, some of it was really good, and it was a huge mess, but it was worth it to see people break- dancing and staring in amaze­ ment at the bondage art on the walls.

In the evening, Emo's looked to be headed for a frighteningly packed night, with showcases outdoors by Trance and indoors by the incredibly popular California punk label Look­ out! Home, a Trance band from NYC and previously Florida, plays an appealingly noisy style of pop com­ plemented by keyboards and distor­ tion. Its recording techniques are such that the live sh o w 1 sounded more hi-fi than the record, an unusu­ al occurrence. Liye, Home is a much more rock-oriented band than is readily obvious on its recordings, and as such, gained an enthusiastic response from a fairly badge-heavy crowd. real Texas' triumph was the Unclean records showcase, at the Hole in the Wall Saturday night. The Hole was the night's literally warmest club, a bonus in the fifty- degree weather. Stretford filled the stage with a quartet of horns, playing its classic pop songs with the unabashed enthusiasm that's made it such a fun band to watch. It's become such a polished act that it's hard to connect it with the 1991 ver­ sion of the band that was apt to fall apart live at the drop of a pin. the Form erly lab el's best acts, in A ustin, based U nclean is now a San Antonio label, partly due to the fact that two of the D ropouts and the Sons of Hercules, are from Texas' second most liv­ able city. The Dropouts is full of 60s garage band bluster and pos­ turing, fortunately supported by a real knack for playing raucous teenage party m usic. Dave, the ed out Dancing With Myself, and an actual New Waver, Eliot Easton of the Cars, played Just What I Needed to the immense delight of the crowd. Pork preceded the critics with one of their increasingly rare shows. Oddly, it seems the less they play out, the better they sound when they do play. Pork remains one of the best Austin groups, and one of the few garage bands in this town with good songs. Outside in the Electric Lounge Pavilion, Enduro whipped out an impressively tight set. The current in place for a matter of lineup, months, seems to be clicking into place. Aesthetically the band's gotten a bit trashier, adding even more swagger to its sound. They've always managed to escape falling into any of Broke After the Brea Bruegger’s Longhorn Baker Understands For No Dough at All! nearsighted vocalist, w hips off his glasses before each perform ance in order to stare down audience m em ­ bers, pointing and singing at those in front of him. This act earned him a bra tossed by one overheated audience member, which he swung around for a while and tossed into the air, hollering, "T h at thing was H U G E!" Closing out the night were San Antonio's most popular punks, the Sons of Hercules. It's probably inap­ propriate to refer to them as a "punk" band, considering what that label means now. The punks of the late six­ ties and early seventies certainly laid the path the Sons are on now, though they have a toughness not seen in the fresh faces of today7 sp op p ier practi- cioners of the form.

Like other genres such as sci-fi or romance, it seems like anyone can and does write mysteries. Therefore, it can take some hunting around to find a decent mystery series. taken on one One publisher, the highly regarded, mystery connoisseur's im print Mysterious Press, has recently such ies. W ritten by a superlative i. one-time English civil servant, Lindsey Davis, the Falco novels, featuring the exciting adventures of the intrepid, lovable informer Marcus Didius Falco in first centu­ ry Rome are some of the freshest mysteries to emerge in the '90s. Time To Depart is the seventh installment of Falco's adventures which have taken him from the back alleys of Rome to the most remote corners of the Empire. Handsome and indisputably appealing in Davis' hands, Falco is a one-time soldier, now informer, but always a charmer, who despite being an avowed Republican, has been known to take on the odd thankless, high-priority mission for the Imperial government. As a detective, Falco gets by more on his tattered charisma than his deductive powers. Sure, he'll eventually solve the crime, but not before being beaten to a bloody pulp, taking off on a dozen wild goose chases, and running into no end of interesting personages. Davis' viv id descriptions and witty prose brings the first century A. D. alive and gives readers plenty of opportunities to laugh aloud. Davis imparts her hero with a sharp eye for detail and insightful obser- T M T O D & M T By: Lindsey Davis Publisher: Mysterious Press Price: $23 vations: "From twenty strides she would have looked fabulous. At six feet she showed signs of a troubled past," is how Falco describes one character. For Time To Depart, Falco has returned from touring amongst a troupe of actors in the M iddle East (see the previous book Last Act ¡a Palmyra, now in paperback) to find that his best friend Petro Longus, the chief of the Aventine Watch, has managed to put aw ay a notori­ ous crime boss, Balbinus Pius. Unfortunately, his disappearance has left a dangerous power vacu­ um in the Rome underworld which causes no end of trouble for Falco and his friends. It's up to Falco to discover who's behind all the mis­ chief. Despite the backdrop of Imperial Rome, Falco has decidedly modern problems — w ith the job, the girl­ friend, the nagging mother. This book finds Falco has more trouble than usual: his patrician girlfriend Helena is pregnant, he's lost her birthday present, he takes charge of an abandoned dog and an abandoned baby, and he's hired to spy on his best friend's patrol. in From an audience richly appointed palace chambers with the emperor Vespasian to a meeting in a seedy brothel known as Plato's Academy, Falco is the perfect tour guide to the Imperial city, top to bottom. The book features an intriguing puzzle and plenty of action. As always the insights into Roman cul­ ture are fascinating. But it's Davis' lively characters, Falco especially, that make Time To Depart another worthy addition to this excellent mystery series. sxsw Continued from page 13 for aliens and Devo for Link Wray, and generate massive amusement. It was generally agreed by just about everyone I talked to that Ser- votron wasn't something to listen to at home, but that its shows are amazing. M O G Stunt Team — If only these guys had been a bit louder ... the M O G guys are a bunch of hardcore noise freaks having fun with rock 'n' roll. Like fellow Princes Drag- onmom member Warren DeFever's His Name Is Alive, this is a noise guy having fun with rock — this time with heavy metal instead of the Beach Boys. They jammed through some cool stuff, but it soundly sadly flat, although Iron Fist came out loud and clear, thank God. Lollipop — It never really hit me how good these folks are until this show, but these guys can kick out the jams. Old style punk-metal on the Stooges/MC5 axis with all the volume that the M O G Stunt Team was missing. Cows -— Of course the Cows always rock, and they did so as usual. It sounds terrible to only be able to say that — but if you've missed out on the Cows' insane take on punk rock, it's too late to explain it to you now. On the other Croissants &.

Sat & Sun 8 am-10 pm 8120 Guadalupe St. 472-4477 hand, singer Shannon Shelberg's true freakdom was finally revealed to me, when I witnessed him stand­ ing stock-still in the middle of the hip-hop showcase while wearing sunglasses covered in stickers — for three damn hours. Salaryman — This basically is the Poster Children, who in this incar­ nation has passed up on its noisy pop (which is a good thing, 'cause it blew) and gone into ambient trip- hop stuff, which was nifty enough while still a good deal shy of absolutely stunning. Zen Guerrilla — These guys slid from blues to feedback scree and back again without missing a beat. Great stuff — too bad they could­ n't play longer, and for more peo­ ple. Sixteen Deluxe — M y antipathy towards this band is well-docu­ mented, so I'm going to wrap up my comments about the band, at least until I hear the next album. I don't like what you're doing, but you do it well enough. Good luck in major-label hell. Starfish — These guys rocked, and rocked hard, thank God. After the almost nod-off level of the rest of the Trance Syndicate showcase, this was a much needed jolt. Not that the previous bands were all bad, but they were all painfully quiet. The new Starfish cleared up those problems. Furry Things — These guys kept up the volume level, turning the whole thing into a noisy rave, with everything flowing continuously into the next. H eavy bass-lines over all manner of keyboard and guitar noise. Not bad. Sw itch H itte r/ V A Z — Though I actually missed Sw itch H itter by a manner of seconds, I'm sure it pumped out the same blend of am azingly noisy guitar over bass and drums thump it they alw ays has. This is basically Sweet Pea minus the chick guitarist, w ith D avid U. finally grabbing a gui­ tar for the first time since Distort­ ed Po n y for some v e ry sharp songs. V A Z is basically Hammerhead with what remains of the original members. After original guitarist Paul Sanders left and a long string of replacements didn't work out, Paul Erickson and Jeff Mooridian decided to toss out the name and start over with just bass guitar and drums. The short set consisted of two songs which, obviously, sounded quite a bit like Hammer­ head.

Over the course of tw o y ears, 840 of them will be gently dropped into place, fanning out to form a constellation that covers the globe. No government planned this venture. At a final price tag of $9 billion, it's unlikely any would. Instead, two of the world's rich­ est and smartest men have put their person­ al fortunes behind a long-shot proposition — bringing fast Internet access to the entire world. The company is called Teledesic Corp., and its two primary investors are Bill Gates of Microsoft and Craig McCaw, who vault­ ed to near the top of die most-money list in 1994 when he sold McCaw Cellular Com­ munications to AT&T for a cool $11.5 bil­ lion. It would take more than a crystal ball to know whether the venture will truly let high schools in Africa roam the Net and businesses in Tibet flourish come the mil­ lennium. At this point, it's unclear whether the technology will even work. But if it does, Gates and McCaw will own a piece of the future. The idea behind Teledesic is sim ple. Although big cities in North America and Europe are wired for fast, heavy-data traf­ fic, most of the world isn't — and the cost of digging up Asia and Africa to lay millions of miles of w ire would be absurd. But there's another way: Using satellites, mes­ sages can simply bounce up into space and then back down to receivers. Until recently, the only satellites that got much commercial use were for weather and television. They all are geostationary, which means they're very high up and stay over the same, large area, so it doesn't take many to blanket the globe. That was a good thing when the technol­ ogy was hideously expensive; a big commu­ nications satellite easily can cost $100 mil­ lion. But with the com m ercialization of spare programs worldwide and the begin­ nings of mass-produced satellites, the tech­ nology now is merely wildly expensive. That's why Teledesic can afford to ship more than 800 of toe things up into spare at toe bargain-basement price of only $ 5 2 mil­ lion each. Why so many? Like almost everything to do with this m arket, it's a question of physics — in this case, toe pesky problem of the speed of light. Put a geostationary satellite high enough and it takes only one to beam television to all of Asia. The signal takes half a second to bounce up to a satellite and then find its way back down to Earth, but that's fine. A “half-second delay works for a television sig­ nal because it's continuous and toe viewer doesn't know or care when the original pic­ ture was sent But on the Internet, it's a nightm are. That's because the basic building block for the N et is som ething called TCP-IP, or Transmission Control Protocol-lntemet Pro­ tocol. It's the set of standards that lets any Internet message be read by any computer. The Net works so well precisely because of toe TCP, or control, part. As a message is sent, each bit of information is checked to make sure it got to where it was going. Pulling up a page on the World Wide Web means thousands of messages sent back and forth, with toe computers having a conversation something like "I just sent 15 bytes of data. Did you get them?" "Yeah, I got them," over and over. It works when the connection is fast. It falls apart, however, with a half-second delay between those checkbacks, which is why the Teledesic satellites have to be so close to toe ground. Geostationary satellites orbit at 22,300 miles up. At 430 miles up, which is called a low-Earth orbit, Teledesic's birds w on't have to worry about the time delay, which means they can provide really fast Internet connections to people from Addis Ababa to Anhui. To get the service, users will buy or rent antennas about the size of a pizza dish and signal decoders that plug into their comput­ ers or telephones. With that setup, they'll be able to do high-speed data transfers like video-conferencing from anywhere in toe world. The folks putting up these satellites don't pretend it's solely a humanitarian effort: They want to make money. But by a nice coincidence, the basic physics of the universe dictate that if you set out to provide low-earth-orbital satellite links to places where there are lots of rich people, you end up making it available to everyone. "If we give it to Madrid, we have to give it to Africa. And in Antarctica, the penguins will be well-served," said Russell Daggatt, Teledesic's president. Teledesic isn't the only company to see the possibilities brought on by cheaper satellites. An astounding 1,700 or so are expected to be launched in the next decade. "They're sending up more in toe next 10 years than they have in the whole history of the satellite industry," said Wen Liao, a senior analyst with Jupiter Communications in New York. Most are for the globed cellular phone and paging markets, and for all these companies — Teledesic most certainly not excluded — several huge issues loom down toe road. First, rocket launches themselves are dicey things. Iridium is now behind sched­ ule, for exam ple, b ecau se one o f C ap e C an averal's Delta rockets blew up last month trying to launch a biomedical satel­ lite. Second, the ventures are enorm ously expensive and, in an era when Wall Street wants returns this quarter, building infra­ structures that can take years is a hard sell. And finally, no one's really sure the tech­ nology to get all those satellites operating in perfect synchronization will work. 'It's insanely expensive, it's insanely risky, it's insanely unmanageable" in tiré words of Robert Egan, research director for satellite technology at toe Gartner Group in Stamford, Conn. Which might make it a good gamble after all. Thus far, no one has made a grab for Teledesic's Internet m arket, though the com pany doesn't exp ect it w ill rem ain untouched. And with the deep pockets of McCaw and Gates, vision might count for more than instant return on investment. Who else is willing to bet that kind of money?" "This final issue is: Is there a need, given what we know about the Internet? Today, the answer is no," Egan said. "But how the Internet evolves, that's key. It might end up being yes." Murdoch escalates war over America’s couch potatoes Associated Press NEW ORLEANS — Space: The final frontier? W hether or not Rupert Murdoch is a Star Trek fan, his plan to beam hundreds of TV channels — including local stations — directly into people's homes via satellite leaves cable television exec­ utives, gathered for a convention here this week, wishing somebody would beam him up. Already, Murdoch's latest ven­ ture — a $1 billion stake in a Den­ ver-based direct broadcast satellite company — is being referred to as the "Death Star." Even Wall Street thinks the com­ bination of EchoStar Communica­ tions with ASkyB, the nascent satel­ lite television business of M ur­ doch's News Corp., makes a poten­ tially formidable competitor to the $25 billion cable industry. Cable stocks plunged 8 to 10 percent after Murdoch's Feb. 24 announcement. Kenneth Goldman, a money man­ ager who watches media companies for Entermedia Growth Partners of Denver said consumers can expect more viewing choices than ever. Telephone companies have scaled back plans to compete head-to-head with local cable system s. And m icrow ave-delivered "w ireless cable" has yet to evolve into the com petitor policy m akers had hoped. But direct broadcast satellite TV is cable's biggest nightmare. "Cable is worried because Rupert Murdoch has shown a willingness to lose gobs of money to build new busi­ nesses. He takes big risks," Goldman said. "The Murdoch deal restores a cloud of competition that seemed to be waning over the cable industry." Decker Anstrom, president of toe National Cable Television Associa­ tion, said a message of this week's ^ ^ Cable is worried because Rupert Mur­ doch has shown a willingness to lose gobs of money to build new businesses. He takes big risks.” — Kenneth f f r t t t n a n i money monsytM' cable convention is "we're going to meet that competition with a grow­ ing sense of confidence." But in a sign of tension, the con­ ference scuttled a session on how cable and direct broadcast satellite com panies — called DBS in the industry — can work together. Of the 100 million U.S. homes with television, about 65 million have cable. Just 4.5 million house­ holds have direct-broadcast satellite TV, but the industry could grow to 21 million custom ers by 2001, according to some projections. The cable industry is about as entrenched as the Big Three net­ works were before Murdoch's Fox television, home to The Simpsons, Married with Children and NFL foot­ ball, shook them up. DBS is a real threat because it's digital and can offer customers better sound and picture quality and more channels than the average cable system , which provides 54. Plus, unlike other DBS providers, Murdoch says his new venture, to be called Sky, will also offer local TV programming in some markets. DBS users today generally need to either plug "rabbit-ears" or basic cable into their satellite receivers to get local stations on their sets. If Murdoch pulls this off, investors worry it would cost cable companies subscribers. Analysts expect cable com­ panies will focus more on creating new local programming choices to combat that fear. Cox Cable Communications' sys­ tem in San Diego, for instance, bought exclusive rights to 125 P ad res' professional baseball games, which it will air this spring on a local programming channel it created: Channel 4. Similarly, Comcast Corp. is sup­ posed to offer local sports events on its cable system in Philadelphia. Murdoch's big push, analysts pre­ dict, will also force cable companies to convert to digital service faster in an effort to both retain customers and woo new ones — though TV viewers can't get the true cinema- quality splendor of digital TV, regardless of w here they buy it, unless they get new digital sets. Finally, M urdoch's heightened DBS presence may serve to check cable TV prices — which reported sharp increases last year and still are on the rise. A nalyst Spencer G rim es w ith Smith Barney in New York said he doesn't foresee rate cuts for either cable or DBS soon, however. "With programming costs in both industries so high, there's just not enough room in toe margins to do that," he said.
