ppeal ruling will not affect UT

By Jeato E. Harris
Daily Texan Staff

Although the U.S. Supreme Court on 
Tuesday let an appeals court ruling stand 
allowing the University of Washington Law 
School to consider race as a factor in admis­
sions policies, UT officials said the decision 
does not affect the University's own case 
involving affirmative action.

The decision in Smith v. The University of 
Washington Law School comes just weeks 
before me high court is expected to decide 
whether to hear the University's Hopwood 
case.

law school applicants sued 

The Hopwood case, named for plaintiff 
Cheryl Hopwood, began in 1992 when four 
white 
the 
less-qualified 
University claiming 
Hispanic and black applicants were granted 
admission because of their race. As a result, 
in 1996 the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals 
ruled in favor of the plaintiffs, prohibiting 
race from being a factor for admission at 
public colleges and universities in Texas.

that 

Although the Supreme Court refused to 
hear the case in 1996, state Attorney General 
John Comyn filed a petition in April asking 
the nine justices to reconsider Hopwood.

The Court is expected to rule on Cornyn's 
petition by June 29.

Doug Laycock, a UT law professor and 
member of the Hopwood legal team, said the 
chances of the Supreme Court hearing the 
Hopwood case will not be affected by 
Tuesday's decision.

"There really aren't any implications [on 
the Hopwood case]," Laycock said. "The 
controversy that remained there is really lim­
ited."

In 1998, Washington voters passed an ini­
tiative that prohibits race from being a factor 
in the college admissions, ending affirmative

action at the University of Washington and 
making the case moot, Laycock said.

Since the University of Washington no 
longer has a standing race-based admissions 
policy, the Court's decision not to hear the 
case is now less about affirmative action and 
more of a matter of punitive damages, 
Laycock said.

"[The plaintiffs] would have liked the 
Supreme Court to take up the case but are 
still confident," said Curt Levey, director of 
legal and public affairs for the Center for 
Individual Rights.

The CIR is a nonprofit legal group repre­

senting the plaintiffs, former applicants to 
the University of Washington Law School. 
The applicants claimed they were denied 
admission while less-qualified minority 
applicants were admitted to create diversity 
on the campus. They sued the university, 
claiming that race-based admissions were a 
form of discrimination.

"They call it diversity, but it's clearly only 

a diversity of skin color," Levey said.

The verdict in the Washington case, decid­
ed in the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, 
conflicts with verdicts in other federal appel-

UT student remains in stable condition

Latiff continues 
to recover from 
University Towers fire

By Rachel Stone
Daily Texan Staff

A UT student seriously injured in a fire last month at 
University Towers Dormitory remains in stable condi­
tion at Brooke Army Medical Center in San Antonio, a 
hospital official said Thursday.

Zawardy Ab Latiff, a petroleum engineering sopho­
more, continues to recover from the May 1 blaze that 
killed his roommate and fellow UT student, Anoor 
Hajee. Latiff remains in stable condition, said Cpt. 
Charles Leonardo, a charge nurse in the hospital's bum 
unit.

Austin Fire Department investigators said they still 

don't know what caused the early morning fire.

In a statement released May 10, AFD officials said the 
fire was started, by “some form of human behavior." 
They ruled out the possibility the fire's cause was relat­
ed to electrical wiring, heating or air conditioning sys­
tems, built-in appliances or any other building system 
or feature.

The investigation found that the fire originated in the 
living room of the dormitory and that the smoke detec­
tor usually installed in the living room was missing. An 
uninstalled fire detector was also found in a bedroom.

Dale Whitaker, an Austin Fire Department 
spokesman, said investigators are waiting to question 
Latiff, who survived the fire with bums covering 45 per­
cent of his body.

"Our investigators hope to talk to the student who 
was injured," she said. "That is dependent on his condi­
tion and the doctor's preference."

Whitaker said it is standard AFD procedure to inter­

view all potential witnesses to a fire.

Latiff is able to gesture and talk, said Joe Shiraz, 

Latiff's friend.

"He's in stable condition and he's doing alright," 
Shiraz said. "The last we heard, there's no danger of 
him dying."

Ed Vishnevetsky, who played on «the UT Rugby team 
with Latiff, said team members presented Latiff with 
gifts in his hospital room last week. The rugby team col­
lected donations for Latiff and his family during exam 
week.

"We got a really good response from the community," 
Vishnevetsky said. "A lot of businesses and student 
organizations have given us checks."

'Along with the donations, the rugby team gave Latiff 
a jersey and ball signed by the team, and a greeting card 
signed by many people from the UT community.

Student activists claim 
victory in protest

By Rachel Stone
Daily Texan Staff

The effort by some UT student activists to sever the 
University's ties to athletic concessions provider Sodexho- 
Marriott, Inc. began to pay off Wednesday, as one of its par­
ent companies announced it would divest its stock in the pri­
vate prison industry.

France-based Sodexho Alliance, which owns 48 percent of 
Sodexho-Marriott, announced Wednesday that it would sell 
its stock in the Corrections Corporation of America, the 
largest owner and operator of private prisons in the nation.

A Sodexho-Marriott spokesman would not say whether 
Sodexho Alliance's decision to divest from CCA was in 
response to student protests. Students have claimed that the 
CCA's privately-run prisons are operated in an inhumane 
manner and are guilty of many human rights abuses.

Sodexho-Marriott currently provides food and beverage 
service to all UT sporting events. Its six-year, $5.4-million 
contract with the University ends July 1.

The Athletics Council voted on May 16 to recommend one 

Deloss Dodds, 

of three corporations bidding to fulfill the contract.

Sodexho-Marriott is one of the three companies being con­
sidered for the contract.

Lawmakers urge Perry not to veto execution bill

By Raquel C. Garza
Daily Texan Staff

Gov. Rick Perry should not veto a bill 
that would ban the execution of mental­
ly retarded individuals in Texas, the 
bill's supporters said Thursday at the 
state capitol.

House Bill 236, authored by Rep. Juan 
Hinojosa, D-Edinburg, sits on Perry's 
desk awaiting either approval or veto by 
June 17. Perry has threatened to veto the 
bill.

Kathy Walt, Perry's press secretary, 
said the governor believes the State of 
Texas has never executed a mentally 
retarded person.

"The governor believes that Texas has 
not executed a person who did not 
kn 
. right from wrong — who couldn't 
as; ;t the defense — and the jury has 
al? a agreed that the person knew right

from wrong," Walt said.

State Health and Safety Code defines 
mental retardation as "significantly sub­
average general intellectual functioning 
that is concurrent with deficits in adap­
tive behavior and originates during the 
developmental period." An individual 
must meet all three criteria to be consid­
ered "mentally retarded."

Jesse Salazar, legal counsel for the 
House Committee 
on Criminal 
Jurisprudence, said there are four safe­
guards in Texas law that protect the 
mentally retarded.

The first is a pretrial hearing that 
determines competency to stand trial. If 
the person is found competent, the 
defense may claim the person commit­
ted the crime but that they were in an 
affected mental state.

The third safeguard involves "miti­
gating factors," including circumstances

such as upbringing and abuse. The 
fourth safeguard is a hearing on the per­
son's competency to be executed.

HB 236 would add two more safe­
guards. The jury would be given special 
instructions to decide for themselves 
whether a person is mentally retarded. 
If the jury finds the person is not men­
tally retarded, the defense could employ 
a second option, asking for a special 
hearing for a judge to decide.

"In Texas, a lot of people are for the 
death penalty, but are overwhelmingly 
against the execution of the mentally 
retarded," Salazar said. 
"Everybody 
wants a fair system and that's what this 
is about."

Sen. Rodney Ellis, D-Houston, the 
bill's sponsor in the Senate, has released 
a fact sheet stating Texas has, in fact, 
executed six offenders with mental 
retardation since die death penalty was

reinstated in 1976.

"The death penalty should be 
reserved for people who clearly under­
stand the consequences of their actions," 
said Jeremy Warren, Ellis' communica­
tions director.

The press conference included Mike 
Bright, executive director of The Arc of 
Texas; Richard Daly, executive director 
of the Texas Catholic Conference; 
Dennis Borel, executive director of the 
Coalition of Texans with Disabilities; 
and Bishop Gregory M. Aymond of 
Austin.

Bright said Texas can balance a hard 
stance on crime with a fair judicial sys­
tem.

"We believe that Texas can be a state 
that is both tough on crime and yet can 
have a compassionate justice system," 
Bright said.

Cotton tanner» bock 
proposed rsgulsttana 
to control bod weevil
LUBBOCK — Cotton 
farmers are intent on 
preventing boll wee­
vils from relnfesting 
areas in Texas where 
progress in stamping 
out the pest have 
been successful.

A proposal formulat­
ed by several cotton 
groups would require 
some cotton equip­
ment as well as raw 
cotton throughout 
Texas to be cleaned 
and treated before 
being moved to areas 
that have eradicated 
boll weevils.

The plan met with 
approval from the few 
who spoke at a pub­
lic hearing 
Wednesday.
“It’s imperative," said 
Roger Haldenby, vice 
president of opera­
tions for the Plains 
Cotton Growers. 
"There’s a tremen­
dous investment by * 
cotton producers in 
boll weevil eradica­
tion. That investment 
has to be protected. 
We cannot afford to 
reinfest this area 
with such a devastat­
ing economic pest."

Three people spoke 
at the Lubbock hear­
ing, one of six across 
the state held by 
Texas Department of 
Agriculture officials to 
gather input on the 
proposed changes.
“It’s been positive” at 
each of the hearings, 
said spokesman 
Brian Murray, who 
was in Lubbock on 
Wednesday.

Some machinery, 
including cotton har­
vesting and hauiing 
equipment, would 
have to be free of 
boll weevils before 
traveling from areas 
of the state that still 
have boll weevils in 
eradication zones 
that have been 
declared suppressed, 
functionally eradicat­
ed or eradicated.
Only one of 11 
defined eradication 
zones in Texas has 
been declared func­
tionally eradicated. 
The Southern Rolling 
Plains Boll Weevil 
Eradication Zone, a 
10-county region in 
the San Angelo area, 
was declared as such 
in September.

Several groups affili­
ated with the cotton 
industry developed 
the proposed 
changes, including 
representatives of 
cotton producing 
associations.

Minnesota teen wins National Spelling Bee

By The Assoctstsd Pteee

WASHINGTON — Sean Conley studied 
nearly half his life for the chance to* be 
America's best speller, practicing 20,000 words. 
He needed 16 Thursday to win the National 
Spelling Bee.

He plowed 

"tropophilous," 
through 
"schadenfreude," "aleatoric" and "epe^cege- 
sis

"I guess all that practice really paid off this 
time," the 13-year-old from Shakopee, Minn., 
said after outspelling 247 others in three 
marathon days of competition.

His winning word was "succedaneum," 
which means, appropriately, "one that suc­
ceeds to the place of another." Sean, the first 
runner-up in last year's Scripps Howard 
Spelling Bee, handled it with no trouble and 
allowed himself only a small smile in accepting 
the trophy

Sean had gone word-for-word for five 
breathless rounds with Kristin Hawkins, a soft- 
spoken Virginia eighth-grader who, like Sean, 
was participating in the national bee for the 
third time.

Kristin rattled off such words as "hamartia" 
as if she were spelling her own last name. The 
word means "a defect of character."

But then she stumbled over "resipiscence," 

meaning a change of mind or heart.

Sean will take home $10,000, while Kristin 

will get $5,000.

By the end of the fourth round, the original 
group of 248 spellers had shrunk to 34. Sean 
won in the 16th round.

He almost didn't make it out of the fourth 
round himself, grappling for several minutes 
with "inesculent," which means "inedible." He 
wrote the word in die air and with his finger on 
his name placard nearly a dozen times. He 
reluctantly began spelling when pressed by die 
judges. Later, die quiet eighth-grader said it 
was the hardest word he faced and that the air- 
writing helps when "I can't see the whole thing 
in my head."

The final rounds pitted spellers familiar with 

each other.

Joy Nyenhuis-Rouch, a West Lafayette, Ind., 
eighth-grader making her fourth appearance, 
was eliminated in the ninth round after miss­
ing "alkyd," referring to a group of plastics.

Also eliminated that round was Michael 
Hessenauer, 13, of Dublin, Ohio, who tied for 
fifth last year. He wa£ caught by "canceUn­
church partitions.

It probably didn't help that the final day of 
competition was broadcast on live TV. In fact, 
as soon as die broadcast began, die first seven 
students misspelled their words.

The group included diminutive Sara Brand, 
11, a sixth-grader from Knoxville, Tenn., who 
mulled over "Australopithecus" for so long the 
judges asked that she please get to the spelling. 
She began it with an "O" and never recovered.
A few minutes later, Abhijith Eswarappa, 13, 
of Memphis, Tenn., broke the losing streak by 
carefully spelling "fimbrillate," a word mean­
ing "bordered with a minute fringe."

Eve Vokes, a fifth-grader from San Antonio^ 
Texas, her blonde hair pulled back into tight, 
matching braids, stared at die judges, her 
hands pinned behind her, as she puzzled over 
"nisei," an American-born Japanese person. 
She spelled it "nesae."

U.S.-China
ties still strong

By The Associated Pisss

WASHINGTON — The 
phones started ringing sóon 
after the U.S. spy plane made its 
emergency landing in China.

Vacationers wondered if drey 
should postpone trips there. 
University students thought of 
dropping study plans. And par- 
ents-to-be feared their Chinese 
adoptions could fall through.

"People always wonder, 
because when the elephants 
rumble the grass gets stomped," 
foreign policy analyst 
said 
James M. Lindsay of 
the 
Brookings Institution.

Turns out problems between 
governments don't necessarily 
trickle all the way down.

In spite of the recent chill 
between Washington 
and 
Beijing over die April spy plane 
standoff and other issues, life 
goes on for tens of thousands of 
Americans and Chinese bound 
together by commerce, immi­
gration and a host of people-to- 
people ventures.

"I was a littie bit nervous with 
all the spy plane tensions," said 
Loren Heinold, a Harvard 
University sophomore leaving 
in mid-June for a Princeton

University language program in 
Beijing.

"But the Chinese people's 
biggest problem is tire American 
government, not the American 
people."

"After you reach a certain 
level of trade, travel, ... people- 
to-people contact, it begins to 
take on a life of its own," said 
Nicholas Platt of the Asia 
Society in New York. "That's 
what big, mature relationships 
are about."

Lawmakers have canceled 
trips to China. The Pentagon is 
reviewing military-to-military 
programs with the Chinese and 
approving those contacts on a 
case-by-case basis. After lengthy 
finally 
negotiations, China 
agreed to the return of tire spy 
plane.

But cm the whole, business is 
going forward, says Myron 
Brilliant, U.S. Chamber of 
Commerce Asia director.

Bill would ban execution of mentally retarded

EXECUTIONS, 
from 1

News releases from the Arc of Texas 
and Sen. Ellis show that while 68 per­
cent of Texans support the death penal­

ty, only 19 percent support the execu­
tion of mentally retarded individuals.

Jordan Steiker, a UT law professor, 
urged Perry not to veto the bill, ques­
tioning his motives if he did so. Steiker 
said Perry's belief that a jury, not a 
judge, should decide a person's mental

capacity is "disingenuous" and "avoids 
the ultimate moral issue."

Walt maintains that Perry believes the 
U.S. Supreme Court should make the 
final decision on whether to execute 
mentally retarded individuals.

McVeigh seeking execution delay

The Daily
Texan
June 1, 2001

By The Associated Press •

DENVER — Attorneys 

for Timothy 
McVeigh asked a judge Thursday to delay the 
Oklahoma City bomber's looming execution 
and accused the federal government of with­
holding evidence in a "fraud upon the court."

The request was submitted to U.S. District 
Judge Ricnard Matsch, who scheduled a hear­
ing for late Thursday afternoon.

A few hours earlier the attorneys met with 
McVeigh at a federal prison in Terre Haute, 
Ind. Attorney Robert Nigh said it wasn't easy 
for McVeigh to challenge his June 11 execution 
date.

"He was prepared to die," Nigh said.
The attorneys also want a hearing on their 
claim that the FBI is withholding information 
even now, three weeks after the Justice 
Department began turning over more than 
4,000 pages of FBI documents that McVeigh's 
defense should have had at trial.

"There are still critical documents about this 
investigation being withheld by the FBI," he 
said, suggesting the agency was keeping pri­
vate files on people investigated in the case. 
"We must get to the bottom of this."

Attorney General John Ashcroft said none of 
the FBI documents raise doubt about 
McVeigh's guilt or establishes his innocence. 
He said the Justice Department would oppose 
any effort to overturn McVeigh's conviction or 
death sentence, or to force a new trial.

"Based on the overwhelming evidence and 
McVeigh's own repeated admissions, we 
know that he is responsible for this crime and 
we will continue to pursue justice by seeking to 
carry out the sentence that was determined by 
a jury," Ashcroft said in a statement.

McVeigh had faced lethal injection on. May 
16 for the 1995 bombing that killed 168 people 
and injured hundreds of others.

But the execution was postponed by 
Ashcroft after the Justice Department admitted 
it mistakenly kept boxes of documents from 
McVeigh's defense. The FBI said they were dis­
covered by an archivist.

McVeigh admitted his guilt in a book 
released in April, but Nigh said such views 
were never aired by McVeigh during his trial 
or appeals.

Asked why McVeigh changed his mind, 
Burr said: "He right now thinks the most 
important thing in his life to help bring integri­
ty to the criminal justice system."

Concern arises over AIDS 
Infection rate of young gays

ATLANTA — Gay men too young to remem­
ber the earliest reports of AIDS are now spreading 
die disease at alarming rates that remind health 
officials of the explosive first years of the epidem­
ic

A government survey released Thursday shows 
4.4 percent of gay and bisexual men ages 23 to 29 
are newly infected each year with HIV, the virus 
that causes AIDS.

The survey, timed to mark die 20th anniversary 
of the discovery of AIDS, is the government7 s most 
sweeping evidence yet of a resurgence in the dis­
ease among young gay men.

It suggests even more staggering infection rates 
for blacks in that group: 14.7 percent — one in 
seven— become HIV-positive each year.

Left unchecked, the infection rates for gay and 
bisexual men threaten years of progress the coun­
try has made to control the spread of HIV/AIDS, 
analysts for the Centers for Disease Control and 
Prevention said.

"The numbers we're publishing right now are 
more like the findings you see in the '80s than the 
findings you see in the '90s," said CDC's Linda 
Valleroy, who led the survey.
, The study included nearly 3,000 gay and bisex­
ual men who were tested anonymously for HIV 
from 1998 to 2000 in Baltimore, Dallas, Los 
Angeles, Miami, New York and Seattie.

Massive maikxit of tax refunds 
expected to boost economy

WASHIN GTON — The Bush administration 
wants Americans to know their tax refund checks 
will soon be in the mail. If private economists are 
right, the checks of up to $300 per person will be 
arriving just in the nick of time to avert a full­
blown recession.

"This will give a much needed boost to the 
economy and could very well make the difference 
between an economy that continues to grow and 
one that slips into recession," said Mark Zandi, 
chief economist at Economy.com.

Congress, under heavy pressure from the 
administration, overcame doubts and retained the 
refund mailout in the final version of the $1.35 tril­
lion, 10-year tax cut program passed last Saturday.
While the current schedule calls for the first of 
an estimated 95 million checks to start showing up 
in mailboxes in late July, Treasury Secretary Paul 
O'Neill said Wednesday he was not satisfied with 
a timetable that would not have the bulk of the 
mailings completed until the end of September or 
Jater.

He said he was applying pressure to IRS offi­

cials to get the job done more quickly.

"We may not be able to do better than 
[September], but I am not satisfied that we can't," 
ONeill told reporters after a meeting with top offi­
cials overseeing the operation.

Bodies of dead Mexican 
immgrants arrive in Mexico
VERACRUZ, Mexico — The bodies of 12 
Mexican immigrants who died in the Arizona 
desert were flown home Wednesday, a speedy 
voyage that almost mocked the fatal hardship of 
their trip north.

"These were just men pursuing a dream," said 
Gov. Miguel Aleman as the simple, cloth-covered 
the 
wooden coffins were unloaded 
Aeromexpress Boeing 747 — a luxury the immi­
grants could never have afforded in life.

from 

Asked what he thought of the US. policy of 
sealing the border, he said: "There should be more 
understanding, there should be more flexibility."

Reynaldo Ambros knows that all to well — his 

son, Julian, 24, was in one of those coffins.

The government of Veracruz state— home to 11 
of the 14 immigrants who died after their guide 
abandoned them May 19 — flew their bodies 
home on a chartered plane. The 12th body will be 
returned to the state of Guerrero. The remaining 
two victims are still in forensics lab in Tucson 
because officials have not confirmed their identity 
yet, Carlos Torres, Mexican consul in Tucson said.
A line of hearses waited outside the airport for 
their sad cargo. They were to proceed to the vic­
tims' mountain villages Wednesday 'night. 
Most funerals were to be held on Thursday.

The U.S. flag is reflected in the living room window at the residence of Bill McVeigh, the father of Oklahoma City bomber Timothy McVeigh, 
Thursday, May 31 in Pendleton, N.Y. Attorneys for Timothy McVeigh asked a judge Thursday to delay the Oklahoma City bomber’s looming 
execution and accused the federal government of withholding evidence in a “fraud upon the court.”

'Tor many years, McVeigh has been deeply 
concerned about the overreaching of federal 
law enforcement authorities. When that over­
reach became apparent to him in his own case, 
it overrode other considerations."

Another attorney, Chris Tritico, bristled 
when asked whether the legal move was 
"offensive."

"I don't know how you could find it offen­
sive that anybody would stand up for the prin­
ciples as outlined in the Constitution," he said.
In Oklahoma City, Pat Ryan, who was U.S. 
attorney during the bombing, said nothing

raised by McVeigh's attorneys Thursday takes 
away from the evidence that McVeigh was 
responsible for the bombing.

"If death penalty crimes were ranked one to 
100, this is 100," he said. "There has never been 
anything worse committed on Amencan soil 
and Timothy McVeigh is going to get the death 
penalty at the end of the day."

Martha Ridley, whose daughter died in the 
bombing, said she didn't believe Nigh's state­
ment that the decision to seek a stay wasn't 
meant to hurt the bombing victims.

"I think that7s a crock," she said. "That is just

McVeigh and his games. He is an admitted 
confessed, quoted killer so why should he 
receive a stay? He's lived six years plus longer 
than what my daughter did. So why should 
they stay it?"

Kathleen Treanor, whose 4-year-old daugh­
ter died in the bombing, said she wasn't sur­
prised by McVeigh's decision.

"I've stopped trying to figure out what's 
going on in his head," she said. She's still reel­
ing over the FBI's mistake.

'To be perfectly honest, I can't really say he 

got a fair trial at this point," she said.

Spy suspect Hanssen pleads innocent

By The Associated Press

ALEXANDRIA, Va. — Veteran FBI agent Robert Hanssen 
pleaded innocent Thursday to charges of spying for 
Moscow, setting the stage for a fall trial that could deal with 
some of the nation's most closely guarded intelligence 
secrets.

Looking haggard in a green jumpsuit with the word 
"prisoner" on die back, Hanssen stood next to his lawyer in 
the federal courtroom, just across the Potomac River from 
Washington. He said "not guilty" when asked how he 
pleaded to the charges, and plans vwere set for an Oct. 29 
trial.

Thursday's arraignment followed futile plea discussions 
between Hanssen's lawyers and prosecutors. The long lead 
time for a trial could permit a new round of plea bargaining.
The federal indictment accuses Hanssen of 21 counts of 

espionage.

"We will be filing motions in federal court attacking this 
indictment," his attorney, Plato Cacheris, told reporters on 
the courthouse steps after what he estimated was a two- 
minute court session. "We've just set a new modem record 
for arraignments."

"That not-guilty plea entitles him to a presumption of 

innocence," Cacheris said of Hanssen.

He declined comment on the possibility of further plea 

discussions.

The government alleged that Hanssen passed U.S. secrets 
to Moscow for 15 years in exchange for $1.4 million in cash 
and diamonds. The FBI said it obtained original Russian

documents that detailed Hanssen's alleged activities, 
including letters he allegedly wrote to his Russian handlers 
and secret codes he allegedly used to signal when and 
where he would drop documents.

The FBI has not disclosed the source of the documents. 
Asked whether the Justice Department would bring in 
Russians as witnesses, Cacheris said, "We look forward to 
any Russians that want to come over and testify."

Hanssen has been detained at an undisclosed location 
since his arrest Feb. at a Virginia park as he allegedly deliv­
ered a package for pickup by his Russian handlers.

As he waited for the arraignment to begin, he chatted 
with his attorneys, smiling broadly on occasion and nod- 
ding.

Apparently no family members were present in the court­
room. Asked why, Cacheris said, "They're here in spirit." 
Hanssen has a wife and six children.

Hanssen could face the death penalty on charges that he 
identified Soviet agents secretly working for the United 
States who were subsequently executed. He also is accused 
of passing secrets about satellites, early warning systems, 
plans for retaliation against large-scale attacks and commu­
nications intelligence. Those charges also carry potential 
death sentences.

Cacheris has said the plea discussions stalled because the 
government refused to waive the death penalty in exchange 
for Hanssen's cooperation in providing to authorities a full 
accounting of his activities.

Asked about this Thursday, Cacheris’said he doubted the 

death penalty would be constitutional in any event.

Going to trial raises the prospect of prosecutors having to 
reveal in open court sensitive information about U.S. coun­
terintelligence activities. For instance, Hanssen allegedly 
disclosed how the United States was intercepting Soviet 
satellite transmissions and the means by which the United 
States would retaliate against a nuclear attack.

"If they insist on the death penalty, they will have to make 
their case in open court and disclose more evidence than 
they would ordinarily," said John Martin, a former Justice 
Department official who supervised espionage cases.

Randy Bellows, assistant U.S. attorney and a lead prose­
cutor in the case, told U.S. District Court Judge Claud Hilton 
that both sides would submit motions for dealing with clas­
sified 
information under the Classified Information 
Procedures Act, a law which provides a mechanism for 
courts to determine what classified information can be used 
as evidence.

The judge could allow the classified information, but 
require that the government come up with substitute lan­
guage so that information sensitive to national security isn't 
revealed.

The government and Hanssen's attorneys found some 
common ground — they agreed to the Oct. 29 trial date and 
planned to submit a joint request for a proposed schedule of 
pretrial filings and discovery.

Cacheris told Judge Hilton, "Mr. Hanssen has been 
advised of his rights and has signed a document waiving 
the Speedy Trial Act."

Under that act, the trial would have been set in 70 days. 

To get the October date, Hanssen had to sign a waiver.

VIEWPOINT

A Shameful 
Badge

On May 18, a Corpus Christi judge stole a page 
straight from Nathaniel Hawthorne's The Scarlet Letter. 
District Judge J. Manuel Banales ordered 14 sex offend­
ers to place large signs in their yards and bumper stick­
ers on their cars warning that a registered sex offender 
is inside.

Aside from the obvious questions regarding the con­
stitutionality of the move, forcing ex-cons to carry 
around badges of shame goes against the very idea of 
rehabilitation itself.

Texas already has a statewide registry for those con­
victed of a sex crime. The idea behind the registry is to 
alert parents and guardians of children about potential­
ly dangerous people moving into their neighborhoods. 
While the registry has noble intentions, it has been 
well-documented that the registry is wrought with 
inaccuracies such as wrong addresses, names and con­
victions. There is dispute as to which department is 
responsible for the mistakes, with the DPS blaming 
local authorities and vice-versa. In spot check of one 
zip code, a newspaper found that only 22 of 132 offend­
ers listed were at the addresses they had given. A Texas 
Department of Criminal Justice internal audit of its sex 
offender system revealed that ex-convicts were not ade­
quately tracked by their parole officers.

One of these mistakes on the registry led to the 
assault on an North Texas handicapped man who was 
believed to be a sex offender by an angry group of 
neighbors. The man had the unfortunate luck of mov­
ing into a house previously leased by a sex offender — 
the registry was never updated.

While this incident may not be representative of 
what's actually taking place across the state, it shows 
the passion this issue evokes in people.

The recidivism rate for sexual criminals is extremely 
high, however if these offenders are so dangerous as to 
merit a large sign warding off passers-by, they should 
still be in prison. The conventional wisdom has been, 
"You do the crime, you do the time." It hardly seems 
fair to incarcerate someone, tell them they are safe 
enough to return to society, then brand them Public 
Enemy #1.

Why isn't Judge Banales calling for signs in the yards 
of murderers, arsonists and drug dealers? Don't they 
pose an equal, if not greater, threat to a community? 
The logic of warning a neighborhood about someone 
convicted of statutory rape but neglecting to warn it 
that a murderer has moved in next door hasn't been lost 
on civil rights groups. The Corpus Christi Criminal 
Defense Lawyers' Organization is planning legal action 
challenging the signs.

At a time when Texas just took a much-deserved beat­
ing in the worldwide media regarding the state of our 
criminal justice system, Banales' actions couldn't have 
come at a worse time.

Sortin g Through 'Sweatshops

By Rich Bonlner
Daily Texan Guest Columnist

Due to many recent concerns about the 
human rights violations of many corpora­
tions and manufacturers that provide 
clothing for universities, a few solutions 
have been proposed.

Specifically, The Ohio State University 
has considered signing onto the Sullivan 
Principles, joining the Workers' Rights 
Consortium (WRC) or the Fair Labor 
Association (FLA).

The Sullivan Principles have been 
given by Rev. Leon Sullivan, who was a 
leading pioneer against apartheid in 
South Africa. Due to die unfortunate pass­
ing away of Rev. Sullivan last month, 
OSU's adoption the Sullivan Principles 
might be on hold for a while.

In 1999, more than 100 universities 
joined the FLA in response to student 
protests about sweatshops and unfair 
labor conditions in the U.S. and other 
countries. Things were looking good, but 
diere was much controversy and debate 
as to whether or not the FLA had what it 
took to make substantial changes.

After a rigorous but failed effort on die 
part of United Students Against 
Sweatshops to change FLA's structure 
and code for the better, they advocated 
universities dropping out of the FLA. 
There was no viable alternative until the 
Worker's Rights Consortium. was 
released in October of 1999.

The Workers' Rights Consortium,

More than 100 universities joined the FLA 
in response to student protests about 
sweatshops and unfair labor conditions 
in the US. and other countries. Things 
were looking good, but there was much 
controversy and debate...

which Columbus United Students Against 
Sweatshops (CUSAS) and other human 
rights groups has proposed, is a monitor­
ing system and code used to verify and 
inspect conditions in factories that make 
material for colleges and universities.

Currentiy, more than 75 schools are 
members of the WRC, including Big Ten 
schools like Purdue, Wisconsin, Illinois, 
Iowa, Minnesota and Michigan.

There are certain advantages and dis­
advantages to the WRC. One disadvan­
tage is that some universities like the 
University of Oregon joined die WRC, but 
have not been satisfied with die speed of 
progress brought by the organization.

One problem within USAS itself is the 
lack of a race- and sex-based sweatshop 
critique. Since a good majority of apparel 
workers are female and minorities, such a 
critique is needed. However: the members 
of the Columbus USAS recognize this and 
are rigorously taking steps to remedy this

problem.

What are some advantages to the 
WRC? Perhaps die largest advantage 
which codes like the Sullivan Principles 
lack is that die WRC will bring compa­
nies' human rights violations to die pub­
lic. Since the companies want to keep a 
good public image, making the reports of 
violations public would be a powerful 
motivation for diem to fix things.

Another advantage is that it provides a 
monitoring system independent of indus­
tries and corporations. According to the 
CUSAS Web site, "die WRC also uses 
human rights groups, local governments 
and local unions as sources of informa­
tion. Such groups have the ability to con­
nect with sweatshop employees in a way 
that a foreign, industry-sponsored audit­
ing firm like Price Waterhouse Coopers 
cannot." If this is the case, this is yet 
another large advantage.

There are other things that need to be

discussed, such as how to avoid different 
companies yanking money from OSU, 
money that provides for academic and 
athletic scholarships. While Nike did cut 
off a $10 million contract with the 
University of Oregon after it joined the 
WRC it hasn't done so with the eight Big 
Ten schools that have pined die WRC. ‘ 
One way OSU could prevent Nike bail­
ing would be to adopt the WRC code that 
other universities have adopted, rather 
than creating a new code. Since Nike has 
already signed those, it would have no 
, 
reason to withhold in regards to OSU. 
But overall, although it is not a fool­
proof solution, I'd lean towards OSU join­
ing die WRC. It has been successful in get­
ting Nike to press managers at a factory in 
Mexico (Kukdong) to rehire hundreds of 
workers after a strike of three days. If the 
WRC can put that type of pressure on the 
Nike, I'd say it's worth thinking about. * 
While the administrators shouldnh 
make a rash decision, they need to decide 
soon what action to take. The longer OSU 
waits, the more human rights get tram­
pled on in factories worldwide.

Making ‘News’ Out of Thin Air

By Duncan Mitchell
Daily Texan Guest Columnist

Help! I'm trapped between Scylla 
and Charybdis, between having to 
believe a government agency on one 
hand and a major American political 
party on the other. It isn't pretty.

In this comer we have the General 
Services Administration, or GSA. The 
GSA said last week that when the 
Clinton administration vacated the 
White House and associated office 
space, "the condition of the real prop­
erty was consistent with what we 
would expect to encounter when ten­
ants vacate office space after an extend­
ed occupancy." Similarly, in February 
officials at Andrews Air Force Base 
denied reports of damage ("looting" 
was apparently claimed) to Air Force 
One, the presidential airplane.

In the other comer we have certain 
high-profile leaders of the Republican 
Party, such as Bob Barr, and their 
friends in the liberal media, who 
claimed that outgoing Clinton-Gore 
staffers "stripped" Air Force One and 
"trashed" the White House. Radio host 
Oliver North (impersonating longtime 
Clinton flack James Carville) put it like 
this: "We should expect from white 
trash what they did at the White 
House." Others/like Paula Zahn of Fox 
News, took á more upscale tack: "All 
right, but this is the White House, for 
God's sakes. We're not talking about 
people living in a fraternity." Tom

“The GSA said last week that when the 
Clinton administration vacated the 
White House, “the condition o f the real 
property was consistent with what we 
would expect to encounter when 
tenants vacate office space... ”

Government Waste, spelled it out: 
"They turned it into Animal House." 
Will members of university Greek sys­
tems protest these slurs on their 
lifestyle?

You see my dilemma: There's no one 
I can really believe. Of course I'm more 
likely to believe the GSA than Bob Barr 
or Oliver North. IPs clear enough that
the Republican Right is up to its old 
tricks again, familiar from the days that 
led to Clinton's impeachment. The tac­
tic is simple. Remember how the 
Republicans would leak some damag­
ing rumor — say, that the videotape of 
Clinton's testimony before a grand jury 
would show him losing his temper, 
cursing and stamping out of the court­
room. The liberal media would oblig­
these rumors, even 
ingly report 
embroidering and enhancing it. When 
the videotape was shown, it bore no 
resemblance to the rumor. Oops! Our 
mistake, the media would blush — and 
then run to the next Republican crying

wolf.

You'd think that having taken back 
the White House would have satisfied 
them. But it seems they will never get 
over having lost it in 1992, or having 
failed to eject Clinton before his terms 
ended. The Republicans had their own 
dilemma: Clinton certainly did a lot of 
bad things, including illegal ones, but 
the Republicans approved of most of 
them: the abolition of welfare, the 
bombing of Baghdad, the degradation 
of the environment, "free trade" agree­
ments that are really protectionism for 
the biggest corporations. To those of us 
with functional memories, their com­
plaints of Clinton's lies and corruption 
are ironic. When did the Republicans 
get religion? They'd never minded 
Reagan's lies and corruption, which set 
a standard Clinton never quite man­
aged to equal, though heaven knows 
he tried. (I'm still trying to make sense 
of a local right-winger's remark I once 
overheard, that he had liked Reagan

before he sold out to big business. 
When was this? Reagan has been a 
wholly owned and operated subsidiary 
of American corporate interests ever 
since General Electric acquired him in 
the 1950s.)

Worst of all, the Gingrich disciples 
who tried to shut down the federal 
government in 1995 failed. They were 
only able to enact those parts of their 
program that Clinton supported, arid 
that wasn't enough for them, or soon 
enough. For the rest, they were never 
able to .muster public support, whifch 
they blamed on Clinton but should 
have blamed on themselves. The 
impeachment debacle made it even 
clearer: Most Americans sided with 
Clinton against his enemies. I can't 
help wondering if the accusations that 
Clinton's people "vandalized" the 
White House were mainly projection: 
The radical Republicans tried to van­
dalize the entire United States. Now 
Bush's people are pushing through as 
much as they can, as fast as they can, 
filling up government posts with their 
relatives and cronies. The accusations 
of vandalism, having been refuted, can 
be abandoned, albeit with poor gra<e, 
as 
their 
Democratic collaborators gear up to 
turn this country into a nuclear waste 
dump.

Public conference addresses health disparities

T he Daily
T exan

June 1, 2001

By Jesse E. Harris
Daily Texan Staff

While Travis County remains one 
of the nation's healthiest counties, 
the disparity between the health of 
whites and minorities continues to 
grow, city and county health officials 
said Thursday at a health equity con­
ference on the UT campus.

"A s long as one community has 
problems, the entire community has 
problem s," said Shannon Jones III, 
assistant director of public health for 
the A u stin /T ravis C ounty H ealth 
and Human Services Departm ent. 
" If we do not address this problem 
in our community, it will not get 
addressed."

The two-day conference, which 
was the first of its kind, brought 
together community members, health 
services organizations and communi­
ty leaders from the Austin area to 
discuss problems that exist in minor­
ity health care.

"This conference is a vpry impor­
tant step in engaging the communi­
ty," said David Lurie, director of the 
county's health department. "African 
Americans and Hispanics have sig­
nificantly higher m ortality rates. 
These conditions are preventable — 
we can make a difference."

H ealth 

Travis 
County's low mortality rate, timely

officials 

said 

prenatal care for pregnant women, 
low infant mortality rate and reduced 
incidence of newborns with low birth 
weights contribute to its favorable 
health condition.

But health officials say these facts 

only show part of the picture.

Latino females with diabetes are 
five times more likely to die from the 
disease than white females, and black 
males had the lowest life expectancy 
— 67.3 years — according to 1998 
county health department figures.

Jones, general chair of the confer­
ence, said only community involve­
ment in the problem-solving process 
can reverse the alarming trends.

"N o problem is resolved by the 
experts — we must have community 
inpu t," Jones said. "T h e num bers 
speak for themselves — these issues 
will not go away. W hat we do here is 
significant and has 
long-reaching 
im pact."

Conference members said reaching 
out to isolated minority communi­
ties, distributing inform ation and 
increasing focus on parental educa­
tion are three potential solutions.

Members of Thursday's audience 
represented different races and cul­
tures from communities across Travis 
County. After a briefing on the issues 
and a visual presentation of relevant 
health data, participants were divid­
ed into break-out sessions where spe­

cific concerns and solutions to issues 
facing individual com m unities were 
discussed.

"Each individual should have the 
opportunity to live a long life," Jones 
said. "This is about making a differ­
ence in this county for all people — 
and not just some people."

Dr. Anthony Otuka, chief epidem i­
cou n ty's health 
ologist 
departm ent, said statistics show 
increased cases of HIV and AIDS, 
child abuse and neglect and an 
increasing teen-age pregnancy rate 
all disproportionately affect minori­
ties. In 1999, Hispanics made up 73 
percent of all 
teen -ag e m others, 
according to county health figures.

Health officials said these numbers 
highlight unique quality of life issues 
for minorities and whites in Travis 
County.

"It's a great place to live, a great 
place to work and a great place to do 
business," Lurie said. "B u t for specif­
ic minority populations, we're not 
doing nearly as w ell."

The conference, sponsored by the 
A u stin /T ravis County H ealth and 
Human Services Department, contin­
ues today. It is free and open to the 
public.

Dabra Murphy, head of behavioral sciences at Huston Tillotson College and co-anchor of the Central Texas 
Communities of Color Network, and Henry Narvaez, director of Friends of David Powell Clinic, speak with Dr. 
Anthony Otuka, who presented data categorized by ethnicity on the leading causes of death in the Austin area.

House bill would eliminate financial aid ban for drug offenders

By The University Wire

Students who have been convicted of drug 
crimes become automatically ineligible for fed­
eral financial aid under current law, but a bill 
making its way through the U.S. House of 
Representatives would change that.

Representative Barney Frank, D-Mass., has 
introduced legislation to repeal the ban on feder­
al financial aid for students with drug convic­
tions, saying that current law is both misguided 
and unfair.

"It doesn't seem to be the right way to deal 
with the problem," said Peter Kovar, a 
spokesman with Frank's office.

While existing policy is in line with the 
nation's war on drugs, Frank believes that its 
selectivity is one of its problems.

"Someone who commits murder or armed 
robbery is not automatically barred from finan­
cial aid eligibility," Frank said in a statement.

"This is the only type of conviction for which 
there is an automatic denial of aid," Kovar 
added. "They're singling out this crime."

Another of Frank's concerns is the people 
affected by the current law. Financial aid officers 
in his home state of Massachusetts brought the 
issue to his attention.

The restriction on financial aid to students 
with drug convictions was forcing students to 
skip college altogether, Kovar said.

The bill imposes a restriction on financial aid 
and not enrollment, so students from wealthier 
families can sustain drug convictions and still 
pay their way through college, but many stu­
dents cannot.

Existing law has had a disproportionate effect 
on people that are less well off — especially 
minorities — according to Kovar.

"Members of minority groups will have a 

harder time attending college," Kovar said.

Ronald Johnson, the director of financial aid at 
the University of Califomia-Los Angeles, said 
that the current law has not been applied to any 
students enrolled at UCLA.

"We really haven't had any circumstances 
where a student has been barred from receiving 
financial aid," Johnson said.

Even if a student was subject to the federal 
restriction, the University of California's distri­
bution of financial aid, which is independent of 
the federal policy, can compensate.

"The University of California has taken the 
position that it is not going to adhere to (the 
restrictive policy) with its own funding," 
Johnson* said.

But the law has still had an effect on students 
at UCLA and nationwide, as it has slowed down 
the processing of their requests for federal aid.

The Free Application for Federal Student Aid 
that students must complete to receive financial

aid includes a mandatory question about the 
applicant7s drug convictions.

In the past, many students left the question 
blank, and the U.S. Department of Education 
decided not to pursue the issue because of die 
magnitude of the effort. But last year, the words 
"Do not leave question 35 blank" appeared next 
to the answer bubbles, and department employ­
ees were instructed to follow up on blank 
answers.

All of this has led to a backlog as the USDE 

must process the applicants' answers.

"The most grievous part is that it could be 
administratively disruptive and delay getting 
funds to students," Johnson said. "The real con­
cern is the fact that this is a bureaucratic hurdle 
that is affecting hundreds of thousands of stu­
dents."

But this doesn't mean that Frank's proposal 

will necessarily meet with success.

"They're trying to repeal a regulation that says 
you shouldn't be using drugs," Johnson said, 
noting that this seems counter-intuitive.

Frank's bill, HR 786, would repeal the current 
law that was passed in 1998. The law created 
standards for ineligibility based on the extent of 
the crime. For possession, the first offense results 
in a one-year suspension of ineligibility, the sec­
ond in a two-year ban, and the third in an indef­
inite suspension.

Punishments for selling controlled substances 
are accelerated. The first conviction results in a 
two-year suspension and the second leads to an 
indefinite suspension.

On April 20, the bill was referred to a sub­
committee of the House Committee on 
Education and the Work force, where it is still 
under review.

Another 
sex offender 
ordered to
post sign

By The Associated Press

CORPUS CHRISTI — A South Texas judge 
has ordered another sex offender to place warn­
ing signs at his home and on his car despite the 
controversy created by previous orders.

State District Judge J. Manuel Banales also 
denied requests from two others to remove sim­
ilar signs.

In addition to the signs, Gilbert Martinez, 39, 
will continue to be on probation for 10 more 
years for aggravated sexual assault of a minor. 
He already has served 10 years probation.

Banales was considering a motion to deny 
probation in favor of sending Martinez to 
prison, because prosecutors said he spent unsu­
pervised time with a minor and was kicked out 
of required psychological therapy.

Fifteen Corpus Christi offenders have been 
ordered to place signs in their yards that read, 
"Danger! Registered Sex Offender Lives Here," 
and bumper stickers on their cars that read, 
"Danger! Registered Sex Offender in Vehicle."

The 105th District Court judge has generated 
international attention and controversy since 
ordering use of the signs May 18. He has 
appeared on national news shows and could 
face legal challenges from criminal defense 
attorneys, who say the signs are cruel and 
unusual punishment.

"The law provides that the public has a right 

to know," he said.

Gabriel Trevino, 34, whose request to take 
down the signs was denied, said he has contem­
plated suicide because of the signs, though he 
hasn't received any threats or attacks. He said 
the signs prevent him from getting a job and put 
his wife and stepchildren at risk from vigilantes.
Trevino presented a letter from his sex thera­
pist that stated he was doing well and told 
Banales that the signs subverted his rehabilita­
tion.

"I get this sign, and I feel like I'm not doing 

good," he said.

Prosecutors seeking capital punishment 
for man convicted in yogurt shop murder

By The A sso ciate d P ress

Prosecutors sought the death penalty 
T hursday for a man convicted of killing 
a 13-year-old girl during a 1991 robbery 
of a yogurt shop in which three other 
girls also died.

Robert Bum s Springsteen IV, 26, was 
convicted W ednesday of killing Amy 
Ayers. Jurors could sentence him to life 
in prison or the death penalty.

Defense attorney Joe James Sawyer 
asked jurors not to give his client a death 
sentence.

"It takes a great am ount of courage to 

spare a life," Sawyer said.

But prosecutor Efrain De La Fuente 
asked jurors to think about Ayers' p a r­
ents.

"His pain is but a drop in the ocean 
com pared to the pain and suffering of 
Mr. and Mrs. Ayers," De La Fuente said.
W ednesday's verdict closed one chap­
ter of a decade-long investigation that 
saw detectives chase leads as far as 
Mexico and w ade through several false 
confessions.

Two other suspects, Michael Scott and 

M aurice Pierce, aw ait trial.

Police had interview ed S pringsteen 
b u t d id n 't arrest him until 1999, w hen he 
confessed to raping and killing Ayers. 
He had moved to West Virginia shortly 
after the m urders.

Ayers, Eliza Hope Thomas, 17, and sis­
ters Jennifer and Sarah Harbison, 15 and 
17, were slain at the shop. The girls were 
bound, gagged and shot in the head 
before the store was set on fire.

"We wanted some kind of ending" a 
tearful Barbara Ayres, mother of the 
Harbison sisters, said after the verdict 
was read.

Springsteen maintained his innocence 
but prosecutors used his own words 
against him.

The fire and th^ water used to extin­
guish the blaze badly damaged the girls' 
bodies and the area of the store where 
they were found, rendering it impossible 
to collect physical evidence.

Springsteen's lawyers argued that the 
confession was coerced and that he was 
manipulated by police pressure.

During trial, Springsteen's lawyers 
Police 
criticized 
Department's 
investigation methods. 
They also complained about the han­
dling of the crime scene, suggesting evi­
dence that could have produced other 
suspects was destroyed.

Jurors, however, watched the tape as 
Springsteen recounted crime details 
police said only the killers should know: 
how the killers entered the store; that 
Ayers was shot twice with different 
guns; and the position of her body.

Springsteen took the stand on the last 
day of testimony in the three-week trial, 
telling jurors he had never been to the 
yogurt shop. He said he went to a movie 
the night of the murders.

Prosecutors challenged his testimony 
as the desperate words of a cold-blooded 
killer.

room where Robert Bums Springsteen IV was found guilty of capital murder, Wednesday, May

Police say man lunged at officer with a knife

By The Associated Press

CORPUS CHRISTI — A police officer 
shot and killed a 54-year-old man who the 
officer said lunged at him with a kitchen 
knife.

Police Officer John Lay, 41, shot the 
man once in the chest after he refused to 
drop a kitchen knife Wednesday morning,

police said. The man died at the scene.

Lay, a nine-year veteran, was not hurt. 
Police were withholding the dead m an's 
identity pending notification of kin.

Police Chief Pete Alvarez said Lay was 
relieved of duty pending an investigation, 
but that the shooting appeared to be justi­
fied.

Police say Lay was parked behind ten­
nis courts next to the park while filling 
out reports when the man approached 
him carrying a kitchen knife and shouting 
profanities. Lay got out of his patrol car 
and repeatedly ordered the man to drop 
the knife, but the man refused, even after 
Lay drew his weapon. When the man

lunged, Lay fired one shot.

The fatal shooting was the depart­
ment's first since April 1997, when offi­
cers shot and killed a 35-year-old mental­
ly ill m an who pointed a toy gun at them, 
Alvarez said.

The man killed Wednesday also has a 

history of mental illness, police said.

Avalanche take series ead over Devils

By The Associated press

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. — It was the biggest goal 
of Ray Bourque's career except for one: the goal of 
winning the Stanley Cup. Now, it's so close he can 
almost touch it — almost.

Bourque, whose pursuit of his first Stanley Cup in 
22 seasons is one of the most riveting stories ever in 
the finals, scored the game-winning goal early in the 
third period Thursday night and the Colorado 
Avalanche beat New Jersey 3-1 in Game 3 to regain the 
series lead.

Bourque, who has played more games in NHL his­
tory than any player who hasn't won the cup, couldn't 
have scripted this victory more dramatically unless he 
had scored the game-winner in overtime of Game 7.

On the same power play in which Avalanche goalie 
Patrick Roy nearly made one of the most monumental 
errors of his career, Bourque grabbed a faceoff in the

Devils' end, skated from behind the right circle and 
into the slot and rammed a slap shot past Martin 
Brodeur for his 41st career playoff goal.

"It's been a while, since 1990, that I've scored one in 
the finals, and I mentioned that to a couple of guys," 
said Bourque, who at 40 became the oldest player to 
score a goal in the cup finals. "It was a big one. I 
would say it's the biggest goal I've scored."

How could it not be? Bourque has never been this 
close to cradling the cup he has superstitiously 
refused to hold all these years, not until he could hoist 
it as a victor. He looked at it a few times, but would 
never dare to actually touch it.

"Great players come up with great plays," team­
mate Shjon Podein said. "That was just an example. It 
was a great shot to beat Brodeur. It gave all of us con­
fidence."

Brodeur said he never quite picked up the shot.

"H e kept moving with the crowd, and when he got 
out of the crowd he was stepping into the slap shot," 
Brodeur said. "He made a good shot, right at my 
shoulder. It went off my glove."

In an arena awash with red-and-white Devils jer­
seys, about a dozen fans in Boston Bruins' black and 
gold — the colors Bourque wore for nearly 21 seasons 
— celebrated as if Bourque had finally won the cup. 
Two more victories, and he will.

"A lot of people know why I made the move (to 
Colorado last season) to put myself in this situation," 
Bourque said. "I know I've got a big job to do and if s 
a long way from being over, but the support is nice."

Game 4 will be Saturday night in the Meadowlands, 
where the defending champion Devils have lost three 
of four finals games the last two seasons. •

Express train gets derailed
Round Rock falls 
to Midland 
in 11-inning battle

By Brian Welch

Daily Texan Staff

All good things must come to an end, just ask the 

Round Rock Express.
‘ Round Rock's 7-game winning streak ended 
Thursday night at Dell Diamond as 9,059 fans 
watched the Midland Rockhounds (31-23) defeat the 
Express (38-16) 4-3 in 11 innings.

Midland right fielder Rusty Keith's base hit in the 
top of the 11th drove in Rian Luderer to score what 
would eventually become the winning run for the 
Rockhounds.

The Express grabbed the early lead thanks to a 

Midland mistake in the field.

After surrendering back-to-back singles to David 
Matranga and Jason Lane, Midland starter Justin Lehr 
(6-3,5.12 ERA) walked Kevin Bums, loading the bases 
for Cesar Morillo. The designated hitter passed a slow 
roller to third, but Josh Hochgesang's attempt to get 
the runner at second sailed wide at the base. The error 
allowed Matranga to score, putting Round Rock on 
the board in the bottom of the first.

But the lead w ouldn't last for long as the 
Rockhounds answered two innings later, scoring 
three runs off of Express hurler Carlos Hernandez (5- 
2,3.74 ERA).

After cruising through the first two frames, 
Hernandez had trouble finding the strike zone in the 
third. The Round Rock pitcher walked four of the 
nine Rockhound hitters he faced in the inning.

Hernandez's string of walks would eventually 
bring the first Rockhound run across the plate. The 
free passes proved to be costly when Midland center 
fielder Ryan Ludwick drove in two with a bloop sin­
gle to center, giving the Rockhounds a three-run lead.
Round Rock right fielder Kyle Logan cut into 
Midland's two run lead in the fourth with a solo shot 
to the right field bullpen.

And the Express bats struck again in the sixth with 
an RBI double by Royce Huffman, driving in Kevin 
Bums from second and knotting the game at three.

With both squads failing to score a run in the final 
two innings of regulation, the game headed to extra 
innings where Midland finally broke the 3-3 tie in the 
top of the 11th. Luder singled off of reliever Doug 
Sessions and later scored on a two-out base hit by 
Rusty Keith to pull ahead 4-3.

The Express managed to put runners on first and 
second with one out in the bottom half 6f the frame, 
but two fly-ball outs quickly ended the rally.

The loss still leaves the Express seven games ahead 
of Midland in the Texas League's Western Division 
with 16 games left to play in the first half of the sea­
son.

The Express will begin a four-game homestand 
against the Shreveport Swamp Dragons Friday at 7:05 
p.m.

Round Rock pitcher Carlos Hernandez struggled with his control in the third inning of the Express’ 4-3 loss to the Midland R ock 
Hounds, but. walked away with a no-decision in the 11-inning contest. Round Rock rem ains in first place in the Texas League.

Sampras falls in second round of French Open

By The Associated Press
PARIS — Forget the marvelous serve, 
lethal volley, ferocious forehand and beauti­
ful backhand. At the French Open, Pete 
Sampras has almost no shot.

He walked off the clay a loser again 
Thursday, beaten by Spanish journeyman 
Galo Blanco, 7-6 (4), 6-3,6-2.

The second-round drubbing was hardly a 
surprise, because any match on dirt is a 
struggle for Sampras. He was seeded fifth 
but admitted being lucky to survive the 
opening round against qualifier Cedric 
Kauffmann, who came within a point of his 
first victory on the men's tour before losing 
in five sets.

Dating back to 1989, Sampras is 0-for-12 at 
the only Grand Slam tournament he has yet 
to win. He's 5-5 in matches at Roland Garros 
since 1996, when he made his best showing 
by reaching the semifinals.

"As the years go by, it gets more and more 
difficult," he said. "This is the one that is my

biggest challenge. All you can do is learn a 
little bit from this and come back next year."
At 29, Sampras owns a record 13 major 
titles, seven from Wimbledon alone, and a 
French trophy would bolster his place in his­
tory. But slow clay gives opponents extra 
time to counter his serve-and-volley game, 
so he's sometimes forced to 
stay at the baseline, where 
he has slim hope.

Andre Agassi 

remains only top- 

seeded American

"Here is different, no?" 
said Blanco, ranked 76th. "1 
have more chances than on 
another surface against 
him."

When Sampras charged the net, he too 
often got passed. Staying back played into 
Blanco's hands.

"All the baseline points, he was controlling 

and dictating," Sampras said.

Andre Agassi, Sampras' compatriot and 
rival, watched part of the match before tak­
ing the court himself for a straight-set victo­

ry-

"It's never been easy for a game like Pete's 
to do well here," Agassi said. "On clay, you 
can't just explode for one shot and hit 
through the court. He's great at turning an 
entire point around with one shot, but on 
clay you can't. You have to fight off three or 
four, then slowly turn the point around, then 
slowly finish it."

Agassi, seeded third, plays that more 
patient style as well as anyone. He beat Julien 
Boutter 6-3,6-2,6-2 and may pose the biggest 
threat in Paris to No. 1-seeded Gustavo 
Kuerten.

No. 2 Marat Safin needed 3 1/2 hours to 

beat Alex Calatrava 6-3, 3-6, 6-3, 6-7 (4), 6-3.

In women's play, No. 6 Serena Williams 
beat qualifier Katarina Srebotnik 6-0, 7-5, 
then tried to quell the latest controversy to 
involve her and sister Venus, who lost in the 
first round. The sisters withdrew from dou­
ble^ Wednesday and Venus flew home to 
Florida, stirring talk of a rift between them.

"No, we never argue," said Serena, laugh­
ing off the subject. "Last argument we had 
was when I was about 6. ... For us, family is 
No. 1. It lasts longer than a sport."

With five of tíre 10 top-seeded women 
already gone, No. 1 Martina Hingis and No. 
4 Jennifer Capriati remained on course for a 
semifinal showdown. Hingis needed just 42 
minutes to eliminate Catalina Castaño 6-1, 6- 
0. Capriati, bidding for her second Grand 
Slam in a row, beat Tathiana Garbín 6-2, 6-1.

Three-time champion Arantxa Sánchez- 
Vicario lost 1-6, 6-3, 6-4 to American Amy 
Frazier, leaving the women's draw without a 
former title her. Sánchez-Vicario, seeded 
11th, threw her racket in frustration after the 
final point and walked off the court to jeers 
from the crowd.

Ten seeded women and 11 seeded m en 
reached die third round, but not the player 
considered by many the best ever: Sampras.

 Expos fire manager Alou after dismal start

By The Associated Press

MONTREAL — Felipe Alou's 
former players took their share of 
the blame for his firing.
"I don't think 

it's Felipe's 
fault/' Montreal second baseman 
Jose Vidro said Thursday, hours 
after Alou was fired by the Expos. 
"We didn't play the way we 
could. It's our fault."

Alou, Montreal's manager since 
May 22, 1992, was let go with the 
Expos last in the NL East witlua 
21-32 record.

"I almost feel relieved," Alou 
told RDI, a network of Canadian 
Broadcasting Corp. "I could feel it 
coming."

Alou was replaced by Jeff 
Torborg, a personal friend of 
Expos owner Jeffrey Loria.

Alou, whose overall record 
with the Expos was 691-717, man­
aged Montreal to winning records 
in four of his first five seasons.

"I feel very bad," Vidro said. 
"N ot because he was fired, but 
what the man means to me. 
Nobody trusted me. He was 
about the only guy behind me. If I 
ever see him, I will say thank you 
to him for what he did for me. We 
have a good team. It's not his 
fault but it always happens like 
that. You can't blame the team, 
you blame the manager."

Larry Walker, John Wetteland, 
Pedro Martinez and his own son, 
Moisés, were a number of the 
young players Alou helped devel­
op into stars before they moved 
on to greater prominence with 
bigger-budget teams.

star 

"I became a star, and I've been a 
solid 
for many years," 
Martinez said before Boston's 
game in Toronto on Thursday. 
"Felipe believed in me."

Toronto catcher Darren Fletcher 
played for Alou from 1992-97 and 
was a member of the 1994 team, 
when Alou*was voted NL manag­
er of the year after the Expos were

a major league-best 74-40 when a 
players strike ended the season in 
August.

"He truly enjoyed coming to 
the yard," Fletcher said. "He 
enjoyed watching the younger 
players develop and progress to 
be quality major leaguers. And 
then, unfortunately, the majority 
of the time those players ended 
up leaving and going to other 
organizations and having great 
success."

In a statement, Loria said the 
decision to change managers was 
difficult, but necessary.

"Our team has been underper­
forming for some time," he said. 
"Before the season started, and 
many times since, I have reiterat­
ed the fact that we expect to win 
and that excuses of past years will 
not be accepted.

"Jeff Torborg understands that 
the pressure for this team to turn 
around starts tonight."

Torborg, who signed a three- 
year contract, previously man­
aged Cleveland (1977-79), the 
Chicago White Sox (1989-91) and 
the New York Mets (1992-93). He 
was a catching instructor for 
Montreal during spring training 
last year and had been working as 
a broadcaster with Fox.

He has a 492-55Í record in parts 

of eight seasons.

"Felipe and I have been friends 
since 1964 and I have tremendous 
respect for him, admiration for 
him," Torborg said. "I learned a 
great deal being around him that 
it makes a day like this very diffi­
cult."

Alou, who spent 27 years with 
the Expos as a player, coach and 
manager, turned down a chance 
to leave Montreal after the 1998 
season, when the Los Angeles 
Dodgers wanted to hire him. The 
66-year-old Alou was in the final 
season of a $6 million, three?year

contract.

"He is a trémendous baseball 
man, and a very popular sports 
figure in this city," Loria said. "I 
believe it's in the best interest of 
the organization to proceed in this 
new direction. We have a lot of 
baseball yet to play this season, 
and we feel this change is a posi­
tive one that is needed to turn our 
team around."

Montreal has not finished with 
a winning record since 1996, 
when the Expos were 88-74.

Nonetheless, Martinez felt that 
Alou did thé most he could with 
the players he was provided with.
"They didn't believe in Jose 
Vidro," Martinez said. "'Oh, he's 
got too little arms, and he's not 
going to be able to do that or this 
4n the big leagues', and now look 
at him. Orlando Cabrera, (Javier) 
Vazquez, (Dustin) Hermanson. 
He took Hermanson from pitch­
ing 100 innings in the minor 
leagues and made him into a star. 
He made Ugueth Urbina into a 
closer."

"If he was given the team he 
could keep, he would have built a 
winner," said Phillies left-hander 
Rheal Cormier, who pitched for 
the Expos from 1996-97.

The Expos, who have the low­
est attendance in baseball with an 
into 
average of 9,605 going 
Thursday night's game against 
Philadelphia, are widely thought 
to be the major league team most 
likely to relocate or fold as repeat­
ed efforts to gain a new stadium 
have stalled.

"If you're going to keep the 
team in Montreal, you have Felipe 
Alou as the manager," Fletcher 
said. "If you're going to move the 
team, you're going to move 
Felipe. They fired Felipe so that 
sends a signal to me that they're 
opening up the door to possibly 
moving the organization."

Alou was the fourth major

Kansas City’s

By The Associated Press

ARLINGTON — Rey Sanchez is 
finally getting noticed, and not because 
he is the best fielding shortstop in the 
major leagues.Sanchez extended his 
career-best hitting streak to 18 games 
with four hits Thursday as the Kansas 
City Royals beat the Texas Rangers 8-2.

"He's never noticed until he puts 
something together offensively," Royals 
manager Tony Muser said. "With him 
every day, he probably means two to 
three runs defensively a game for us. He 
may not drive them in, but he saves 
them."

During his hitting streak, the longest 
ever by a Kansas City shortstop and the 
longest current streak in the majors, 
Sanchez is batting .372 (29-for-78). He is 
in his 10th major league season, the 
third in Kansas City.

"It's bqpn fun. I just get to go out 
there, do it for the team and not worry 
about what happens," Sanchez said.

"When you are seeing the ball, hitting 
the ball well, you just feel better."

In addition to his hitting streak, 
Sanchez has made only one error in 272 
fielding chances (.996 fielding percent­
age). He leads the majors in total 
chances, assists (188) and double plays 
(50).

Blake Stein (2-4) earned his first wm 
in one-and-a-half months despite 
throwing 51 balls and 49 strikes. He 
allowed two runs and three hits in five- 
plus innings, and overcame six walks to 
win for the first time since April 15 at 
Toronto.

The Royals trailed 1-0 in the fifth 
when, after Sanchez singled to put run­
ners as first and third, Mike Sweeney, 
Jermaine Dye and Joe Randa had con­
secutive RBI-singles against Doug 
Davis (2-5).

After Randa was 

intentionally 
walked in the seventh to load the bases 
with one out, Dave McCarty hit a two-

run double to make it 5-2. After Dee 
Brown was intentionally walked, A.J. 
Hinch greeted reliever J.D. Smart, 
Texas' third pitcher, with another two- 
run double.

Sanchez led off the eighth with a dou­
ble — his other hits were singles — and 
scored on a single by Dye.

The Royals had 15 hits a day after 
they had 19 in an 11-2 win over the 
Rangers.

"To get our bats going, if s 50-some­
thing games into the season, it's about 
time we start doing that," said Sweeney, 
who had three hits. "Right now we are 
hitting, hopefully that will equate into 
wins and hopefully will be contagious 
and something that sticks with us for a 
while."

Stein, who had been 0-2 in three starts 
and had made four relief appearances 
since his last win, struck out four and 
walked six. He left after Alex Rodriguez 
led off the sixth with a double and

Rafael Palmeiro walked.

"The bullperi made me more aggres­
sive," Stein said. "Coming out today, I 
took that same attitude, leave every­
thing you have on the mound, not real­
ly trying to pace myself and get as many 
outs as I can."

Gabe Kapler hit a sacrifice fly off 
reliever Kris Wilson to make it 3-2, but 
the Rangers never got closer. Wilson, 
recalled from Triple-A Omaha just two 
days earlier, pitched the final four 
innings and struck out four for his first 
major league save.

Davis, 

recalled 

from Triple-A 
Oklahoma to make the start, gave up 
three runs and eight hits in 4 1-3 
innings.

"I've struggled up here, but I do fine 
down there. I'm frustrated and it's 
something I have to figure out," said 
Davis, who was 2-0 in two Triple-A 
starts but has lost four straight in the 
majors.

Houston hit parade downs San Diego, 8-4

By The Associated Press
* SAN DIEGO — San Diego Padres pitchers 
should stay away from sharp objects.
’ Adam Eaton accidentally stabbed himself in 
the stomach with a small knife on Wednesday 
- night and emergency starter Wascar Serrano was 
lit up by the Houston Astros on Thursday in an 8- 
4 loss.

Eaton, who leads the Padres with six victories, 
needed two stitches to close the cut and was held 
out as a precaution.

Shane Reynolds hit the first homer by a 
Houston pitcher in more than a year and Vinny 
Castilla weiit-4-for-4 as the Astros won their sec­
ond straight following a season-high eight-game 
losing streak. Four of those losses were to the 
Padres..

"Obviously he's their best pitcher, he's won a 
lot of games," Houston manager Larry Dierker 
said of Eaton (6-3). "Then you turn around and 
face a guy that doesn't throw as hard and doesn't 
have as good a control and gamesmanship, and 
it's a break."

Serrano is a rookie who was making his fourth 

"We've had a lot of breaks in the schedule. We 
haven't really taken advantage of them, but we 
did today," Dierker said.

Eaton cut himself trying to open a package of 

"It was just a boneheaded play," he said. 
"They're in those plastic packages that no one can 
get open. I was using a little knife to cut it and it 
slipped. You learn when you're little to cut away 
from yourself."

Serrano said he was surprised when he got the 

start.

start.

"Tough day," he said. "I was up."
Padres manager Bruce Bochy said he thought 
Serrano would be ready to go based on a bullpen 
session a few days earlier.

"He was all set to go, but he just happened to 
give up the big inning. That came back to haunt 
us," he said. "You probably think he was sur­
prised. You shouldn't be as players. It's part of 
picking each other up."

Serrano hadn't pitched in a week, with his turn 
being passed over because of a day off, and he 
wasn't sharp. He fell behind 4-0 in the first, allow­
ing Lance Berkman's two-run double and RBI- 
singles by Moisés Alou and Castilla.

Reynolds made it 5-1 when he drove an 0-1 
pitch into the left-center field seats with one out 
in the second. It was his fifth career homer, and 
the first by an Astros pitcher since he connected 
off Brian Boehringer in a 10-4 win at San Diego on 
April 14, 2000.

"Really, facing a guy that we hadn't seen 
before, we usually have some trouble with," 
Reynolds said. "Not knowing what he throws 
and how he throws and what situations, stuff like 
that, it takes a few innings to kind of get accus­
tomed to it.

"But I think we were very aggressive today 
early in the game. We swung tire bat real well and 
took advantage of some situations and scored 
some runs early."

Berkman added three hits and three RBI. He 

and Castilla each hit two doubles.

Houston'S Shane Reynolds yielded four runs and seven hits in seven innings 
and hit a home run — in the Astros’ 8-4 win at San Diego Thursday.

Spanish journeyman Blanco knocks off 
Sampras in French Open second round

TENNIS, from 7
He never recovered from losing a first-set 
tiebreaker, when he was passed twice and 
double-faulted. Until the final game, Sampras 
had only one break point. The ending was all 
too typical — pinned two steps behind the 
baseline on match point, he put a forehand 
into the net.

Blanco is hardly invincible, even on day, his 
favorite surface. This is the first time since 
1997 that he has advanced beyond the first 
round at Roland Garros. But he joined Ramon 
Delgado, Gilbert Schaller and Thierry 
Champion, among others, in beating Sampras 
at die French Open.

"If I go through my career not winning the 
French, sure, it's disappointing," Sampras 
said. "There's still time. There's no reason to 
think this is it. I've got plenty of years left."

But lately the problem isn't just clay. 
Sampras' most recent title came at Wimbledon 
nearly a year ago, and he hasn't won a Grand 
Slam event other than Wimbledon since 
January 1997. He's 11-9 this year, induding a 
fourth-round loss to Todd Martin at the 
Australian Open. He lost first-round matches 
on day at Hamburg and Rome.

"It hasn't been the best of years," he said. 

"Not great by any means."

That can change in a fortnight.
"When we go to the grass," Agassi said, 

"he'll get everybody's attention again."

Sampras bids for his fifth consecutive 
Wimbledon title beginning later this month- 
First comes the familiar trip from Paris home 
to Los Angeles, a 13-hour flight that must 
seem longer.

Colorado Avalanche take 2-1 lead in Cup Finals

HOCKEY, from 7
"We're one step closer, but we've got a 
long way to go," said Bourque, who cele­
brated the goal with the exdtement of a 
rookie — one Bke Dan Hinote, who scored 
an insurance goal later in the period.

Bourque exdtedly dropped to his knees 
as soon as the shot went in, then gpread 
his arms a few feet apart.

Bourque, whose goal came only 31 sec­
onds into the period, was initially credited 
with the second assist on Hinote's goal at 
6:28 of the third, making the clearing pass 
that led to a give-and-go between Hinote 
and Ville Niemenen. But the assist w as 
later taken away and given to Chris Drury 
— not that Bourque cared, with that elu­
sive cup now so tantalizingly near.

"Obviously, when you make a play like 
that, everybody realizes how important he 
is to our hockey dub," Colorado center Joe

Sakic said. "We're playing for the cup."

Devils coach Larry Robinson wondered 

if his team realizes that.

"This is what we play for," he said. "We 
didn't have enough players competing 
tonight."

Colorado hadn't won in New Jersey 
since moving to Denver in 1995-96, going
0-4-2 during that span and 0-7-3 overall 
since its last victory there in 1993 as the 
Quebec Nordiques.

New Jersey finally got a goal from its A- 
Line, but no more and now has only three 
goals in three games, not the pace it needs 
to keep the cup. The Devils also are only
1-for-15 on the power play.

Jason Amott scored the first goal in the 
series by the A-Line, which had 22 goals 
in the playoffs before being shut out in the 
first two games. Amott steered a wrister 
from the top of the left drcle through Roy 
at 3:16 of the first period, the Devils' only 
power-play score so far.

But the Avalanche, who never caught 
up in their 2-1 loss in Game 2 after falling 
behind, tied it just over halfway through 
the period as defenseman Martin Skoula 
put a perfectly placed shot from the slot 
over Brodeur's shoulder as three players 
jammed the crease.

At that point, three of the last four goals 
in the finals had been scored by players 
who had previously gone scoreless in the 
playoffs. Bob Corkum and Turner 
Stevenson each scored their first goals in 
Game 2 for New Jersey.

Later in the period, New Jersey had a 
two-man advantage for 34 seconds but 
couldn't score.

"We had a great opportunity, I thought 
we started extremely well, and then we 
had a 5-on-3 and we didn't score," 
Robinson said. "After that, our team just 
lost all of its drive and composure and 
guys stopped working."

efforts, Strictly Ballroom and Williant 
Shakespeare's Romeo + Juliet, Moulin 
Rouge concentrates on a pair of 
doomed lovers, Satine and Christian, 
superbly played by Nicole Kidman 
and Ewan McGregor. Armed with a 
$70-million budget — as well as an 
almost two-year battle to access tire 
rights to every meaningful pop song of 
the past 50 years— Luhrmann's tale of 
a struggling, love-obsessed playwright 
is infused with music from start to fin­
ish.

Arriving in theaters only a few 
weeks after A Knight's Tale (another film 
that melded its time period with a 
hyper-modem soundtrack), Moulin 
Rouge succeeds where that film foiled. 
Tale did not carry the concept far 
enough, while Moulin Rouge capitalizes 
on the effect by breathlessly expressing 
in music what isn't conveyed by the 
actors.

Despite a cast of seemingly thou­
sands, Moulin Rouge is a showcase for 
Kidman's breakthrough role as Satine. 
Even though she is already considered 
an A-list actress, Kidman hasn't reme­
died her commercial instincts with her 
artistic ones. In Moulin Rouge, she 
immerses herself in a role that calls for

the smoldering sexiness of Marilyn 
Monroe and the grace of Meryl Streep, 
and she pulls it off seamlessly. Kidman 
has never looked better on film and, 
with the exception of To Die For, she has 
never been better.

The center of the film is Christian 
(McGregor), who is equally affecting if 
not charismatic— but after all, he is the 
playwright while Satine is the star. 
McGregor shows the same ignorant 
winsomeness he brings to most of his 
characters, from his work in A Life Less 
Ordinary to the young Obi-Wan Kenobi 
in The Phantom Menace. Making use of 
his tremendous set of pipes— as he did 
in Ordinary, belting out Bobby D arin's. 
“Beyond the Sea" — his take on Elton 
John's "Our Song" and other tunes 
make him ‘the perfect choice for 
Christian.

Kidman and McGregor are sur­
rounded with a flurry of great character 
actors. Jim Broadbent plays the manag­
er of jhie Moulin Rouge, quite similar to 
his role as Gilbert in last year's Topsy 
Turoy. 
plays 
John Leguizamo 
Christian's pint-sized bohemian best 
friend, and Richard Roxburgh plays an 
over-the-top 
backs 
Spectacular, Spectacular, the musical

count who 

Satine and Christian attempt to put on.
The play's title is also appropriate for 
Moulin Rouge, a glorious playground 
for director Luhrmann to experiment 
with. For anyone who has heard the 
film's soundtrack and tries to piece 
together a film from it, Luhrmann's 
vision is far more brilliant than the 
overall picture it paints. Complete with 
can-can dancers and decadence, even 
in its most subdued moments, Moulin 
Rouge feels like the peak of the extrava­
gant style he has championed since 
Strictly Ballroom, an example of 
Luhrmann's uncompromising artistic 
vision, which is a rarity in today7s film- 
making environment.

Still, Moulin Rouge isn't for everyone. 
It even loses its way with those enrap­
tured by it from the opening frame. 
When called upon to fill the void 
between the frequent inundations of 
musical numbers and the action — or) 
more appropriately, the non-action — 
the film seems vapid and forced. Yet for 
a film with so much to rave about it's 
hard to pounce on the film for its flaws. 
Moulin Rouge is a masterpiece of pop 
culture, and subtie or not its reverbera­
tions represent the revived pulse of the 
film musical.

By Stephen Salto
Daily Texan Staff

Subtlety has never been one of the 
virtues of Baz Luhrmann's filmmaking. 
Extravagance, on the other hand, has.

' ★★★★☆
MOUUN ROUGE 
starring Nicole Kidman, Ewan McGregor 
directed by Baz Luhrmann__________
The irony attached to Luhrmann's 
ability to completely hit or miss with 
audiences will most likely resurface 
with the release of Moulin Rouge, a vir­
tual musical encyclopedia of pop cul­
ture set against the backdrop of the 
famous tum-of-the-century French 
dance hall. In a film where tire only 
understatement would be to call it 
ambitious, Moulin Rouge is a dazzling 
spectacle that soars when it hits third 
gear and falters when it settles back 
into first.

Like Luhrmann's previous 

two

"There is a density 
and clarity 
to Edith Wharton...”

Writer/director 
Terence Davies
