Adriane Jaeckle/DAILY TEXAN STAFF As ‘Episode I’ approaches, fans spend for toys, tickets Randy Kramen Daily Texan Staff For some inexplicable reason, there are a few people out there still in denial about Star Wars: Episode I — The Phantom Menace. "It's only a movie." That's what they say. ONLY A MOVIE? Then why are people in Los Angeles quitting their jobs to stand in line at M ann's Chinese Theater? Why are 20-, 30- and even 30-somethings stampeding over 4-year-olds to be the first to own the action figures? Why are som e bu sin esses — such as the H eadline Group, a public relations firm in Atlanta — declaring cultural holidays to prevent office mutiny?

T his y e a r's SG ca m p aig n s and elections were replete with contro­ v ersy , ran g in g from accu satio n s that candidates broke spending lim­ its to the van dalism of cam paign signs with different forms of artistic media. R an d y T h o m p so n , e x e cu tiv e director of SG, said the marred elec­ tions created an a d v e rse student reaction to SG. "O b v io u sly , there w as a h u ge n egative im age," Thom pson said. "S tu d e n ts felt this w as the sam e incompetent Student Government." But he added the discord caused stu d e n ts to p ay atten tion to the elections. "Because of all the wackiness and w ord-of-m outh, people started to take notice," Thompson said. Eric Opiela, vice president of SG, said SG is currently p rep arin g to prevent such problems from arising next year. "T h is is the first tim e that we have appointed an ESB chair in the spring," Opiela said. The Election Supervisory Board oversees all elections, insuring the process runs sm oothly and candi­ dates obey election code during the campaign season. SG/Page 2 FUNDS/Page 2 Amid controversy, tobacco lawyer settles for less fees Laura Offenbacher Daily Texan Staff An attorney involved in T exas' m ulti-billion dollar tobacco settle­ ment will receive only $1 million in fees in stead of the $260 million a state panel previously had granted him. In 1998 a state arbitration panel granted attorney M arc Murr $260 million based on his contract with the attorney general's office. But later that year, a national arbi­ tration panel reduced the amount to $1 million, a decision Murr has con­ tested. On Thursday Murr dropped his app eal of the low er paym ent, agreeing to comply with the nation­ al arbitrators' ruling. The hearing follow ed Attorney General John C ornyn's accusation that former Attorney General Dan Morales used a fraudulent contract to determine a “reasonable fee" for M urr's work on the tobacco case. H eather Browne, spokesw om an for Comyn, said the attorney gener­ al is investigating how much work Murr actually did on the case. "There's been some questions as to whether he did any work at all," Browne said. She said there are disputes about how many hours Murr spent on the case and how many he docum ent­ ed. Cornyn's office filed a subpoena last week forcing Morales to testify at the hearing about the contract. q u a sh e d But U .S. D istrict Ju d g e D a v id o rd e r F o lso m W ed n e sd a y , that he w ouldn't perm it any w itnesses to testify at the hearing. a d d in g the Browne said Cornyn's office will co n tin u e to in v e s tig a te M urr, Morales and issues surrounding the $15.3 billion tobacco settlement.

President Clinton and other West­ ern officials welcomed Russia's back­ ing for "effective international civil and security presences" in Kosovo, where a NATO campaign has failed to halt the expulsions of one-third of the ethnic Albanians in the southern Serb province since March. K osovo's m ost pro m in en t ethnic Albanian leader told a new s confer­ ence in Rome a day after he and his fam ily w ere a llo w e d leave Yugoslavia that he favored an interna­ tional peacekeeping force — including NATO — in his homeland. to "We need above all to create securi­ ty in Kosovo so people can return," said Ib ra h im R ug ov a, w h o w as a negotiator for the ethnic Albanian del­ egation at the failed peace talks in Rambouillet, France, that preceded the 6-week-old NATO air campaign. Clinton described the draft agreed to in G erm any as "a significant step forw ard ... increasing the likelihood that there will ultimately be a resolu­ tion of this that will actually work." He made his remarks after meeting a grateful crowd of Kosovo refugees housed at a German facility and greet­ ing three U.S. soldiers freed last week by Yugoslavia. NATO hopes getting M oscow on board in a common front will increase the diplomatic pressure on Yugoslav President Slobodan Milosevic to drop his resistance to an international mili­ tary presence in Kosovo. To b rin g in R ussia, the W estern pow ers agreed on a statem ent that makes no reference to any NATO role in Kosovo peacekeeping and stresses the importance of U.N. backing for the operation. However, NATO ministers insisted they had not dropped demands for an in tern atio n al force th at is stro n g ly arm ed, equipped w ith a m andate to use force and spearheaded by alliance troops. "This must mean a strong military force with NATO at its core," Secretary of State Madeleine Albright said after the meeting of foreign ministers from Russia and the G-7 group of leading industrialized nations. "W ithout robust military presence, nothing will be achieved," added Ger­ man Foreign Minister Joschka Fischer, who chaired the talks. The ministers issued seven "general principles" for a political solution to the crisis that they said will be p ro ­ posed as the basis for a U.N. resolu­ tion. A part from the international force, they include a verifiable end to vio­ lence in Kosovo; w ithdraw al of mili- nws BRffS Slave's relatives to go to Jefferson reunion ■ CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. — For the first time, descendants of Thomas Jefferson's slave Sally Hemings will atten d the an n u al Jefferson fam ily reunion, which has been held at Mon- ticello for the past 86 years. But a bat­ tle loom s o v er w h eth er the H em - ingses will be fully accepted as Jeffer­ son's kin. The reunion will be the first one held since DNA test results last fall found that the author of the Declara­ tio n of In d e p e n d e n c e m ay h a v e fathered at least one of Hemines' chil­ dren. Because of those findings, a white, six th-generation scion of Jefferson plans to challenge his cousins to for­ m ally a d m it the H em ings d escen ­ dants into their family organization, the M onticello Association, d u rin g their private meeting May 16. The genetic tests prove not that Jef­ ferson was the father, but that a m em ­ ber of the Jefferson male line fathered a Hemings son. That leaves open the possibility th a t Jefferson's brother, Randolph, or one of R andolph's six sons, fathered a Hemings child. Abortion activist charged with murder ■ BUFFALO, N.Y. — An abortion foe w ho is the subject of an international m anhunt w as charged w ith m urder T hursday in the slaying of a doctor w ho was cut dow n in his kitchen by a sniper's bullet. Federal and state arrest w arrants were issued for James C. Kopp, 44, of St. Albans, Vt. His w hereabouts are unknown. "We have probable cause to believe this man, James Kopp, is responsible for the death of Dr. Barnett Slepian," FBI agent Bernard Tolbert said. Investigators have been searching for Kopp since shortly after the Oct. 23 slaying. U p until Thursday, how ­ ever, they had described him only as a material witness w anted for ques­ tioning — not a suspect. In a d d itio n to a sta te c h arg e of m urder, Kopp faces a federal charge of violating the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances Act by using deadly force against an abortion doctor. Both charges carry up to life in prison. The federal charge also carries a fine of up to $250,000. — Com piled from A sso cia te d Press reports A Marine Harrier Jump Jet approaches the deck of the USS Kearsarge as crewmen prepare for the landing.

R ussian F oreign M in ister Ig o r Ivanov said "it would be premature to speak of a breakthrough, but progress has been m ade," the Interfax new s agency reported. Fischer acknowledged NATO and Moscow, which has religious and cul­ tu ral ties w ith the Serbs, rem ain at odds over Russian calls for suspending the bom bing and over the strength and composition of the international force. M ilo sev ic's refu sal to accept an arm ed international force in Kosovo has been the main sticking point of p rev io u s peace atte m p ts. W estern m inisters said Russia's backing and the possibility of a U.N. reso lution would crank up pressure to accept. "There's a unity of purpose, includ­ ing the Russians, so there is increasing p ressu re being applied," C an ad ian Foreign Minister Lloyd Axworthy said after the 2 1/ 2-hour meeting in a gov­ ernm ent guest house overlooking the Rhine River outside Bonn. Scots, Welsh go to polls for historic elections Associated Press EDINBURGH, Scotland — Scots voted Thursday for their first Parlia­ m ent in nearly three centuries, the m ost radical developm ent in Prime M in ister T ony B lair's p ro g ra m to decentralize Britain w itho ut break ­ ing it apart.

But polls indicated it w o u ld fall sh o rt of an overall m ajority in the 129-member Edinburgh Parliam ent and face inde­ pendence-seeking nationalists as the official opposition. The 3 million people of Wales also voted for a separate b ut less pow er­ ful 60-m em ber assem b ly for th eir principality, w here no strong push for independence exists. In a test of the nationw ide record popularity ratings of Blair's 2-year- old adm inistration, some 25 million English voters also w ere eligible to choose local g o v ern m en t councils. The Scots and W elsh also voted for local councils. U nder the banner headline "Scot­ land makes history," the Edinburgh- based Scotsman new spaper acknow l­ edged uncertainty about w hether the new w ay of governing Britain will lead "to a stronger union or indepen­ dence." M any Scots find the mere prospect of breaking w ith England alarming. They have shared a m onarch with- England since 1603 and a Parliam ent in London since 1707.

The big challenge in England on Thursday was to get voters — w ith nothing new to choose — to bother to tu rn out. Some 13,000 seats were at stake on 362 councils in England, W ales and Scotland.

They are not necessarily those of the University administration, the Board of Regents or the Texas Student Publications Board of Operating Trustees. Dreams come true I really don't know what to say. As hard as that may be for some of you to believe, if s true. After four years at UT and three and a half at The Texan, I'm left a bit speechless. ! could go off on why The Texan has been so great, or what The Texan is all about, but I won't. Because 1 know most of you don't care. But the way I see it, if you've read this far, you're here for the duration, so hang on. It's COLUMN gonna be a nde by the seat of my pants I guess I do have some advice before I move on the requisite thank-yous and such. — Take advantage of all this university offers. Where else can you drop your kid off for day care, go swim some laps and then get arrested for trespassing all in the same day? — Get to know at least one of your pro­ fessors well. But not as well as your bar­ tender. — Go to the Hole In The Wall for a ham­ burger and a beer. Several times. Just don't wear khakis, and tell Brooks I said hello. — Realize that no matter how bad you think you have it, it could be worse. You're in A ustia Texas. — Don't take an 8 a.m. class during the summer. Trust me on this one. — Use your damn turn signals. They're there for a reason. they're really bad. — Don't talk during movies. Unless — When somebody asks you to go for a beer, don't turn your nose up and go "Eww ... I don't drink beer." — And finally, don't talk about Derek on the porch. I also want to make a little peace. To all those Frenchies 1 offended not once, but twice, with my Microcosmos review: I'm sorry. Y'all aren't that bad. But quit saying "voila" so much! And to anyone who ever sent in an Around Campus form, especially that guy who called six (yes, 6) times to try and get his event on the front page: Pester­ ing me was probably the worst thing you could have done. It only made my resolve stronger. But pestering Amy Strahan, who is now in charge of the ACs, is worth your time. Call her at 471-4591. And now the roll call: Cora Oltersdorf was the first person at The Texan who actually cared. Thanks very much. Joe Sebastian was the first person at The Texan who told me things like they were. Thanks very much. And thanks again for letting me into Emo's when I was dressed like a fratboy with a bad Abercrombie & Fitch credit-card habit. Fernando Ortiz worked harder in the two years I knew him than most people work their whole lives. And always looked GQ-fresh doin' it. Amy Spitzenberger, you are dangerous to society. But mostly men. Jennifer Schultz smokes too dam n much. But she still taught me half I know. Sholnn Freeman taught me the other half. I'm truly blessed to have had you in my life, even if you do almost get my ass kicked by Marines. ¡Viva la Hotel Califor­ nia! Colby Black, you know me too well. But maybe that's because you've had a two- year head start to do all the dum b shit that Carlo Longino LAME DUCK, TOO we've both done. Remember the Lucky Charms. At least it wasn't a costume. Randy Kramen spends more time in the office than anyone I know. In addition to being the first Mexi-Jew I've ever met, he's the best Star Wars fan a guv could hope for. Mike Finger rules. Anybody that says Who the fuck are you?" to a burl}' Marine is okay by me. Jeff McDonald is certihablv insane. But that didn't keep him from being the best sportswriter I've ever known, or from being one hell of a drinking buddv. Damien and Robby were always cool because they unquestioningly bought into my bullshit. At least for a while. Jay Defoore secretly wishes he still looks like he did the day his UT1D picture was taken. Kurt Hopke, all is forgiven. You're cool bv me. Hope the forklifing career works out. Chuckles, thanks for all the tips on pick­ ing up girls. But even you can't help my game (or lack thereof). Adriane Jaeckle, I respect you because you put up with more shit(s) than anyone I know. Charlie Fonville is my Photoshop master. Ryan and Claudia, thanks for all your hard work. Now take a damn day off. Jennie, I'm certain you will lead a long and storied Texan career because of all the time you spend in the stairwell. The SR-7: Nice work. Plus, y'all are hot! Jason H unter I see a lot of myself in you. Hopefully for your sake, you'll grow out of it. Spencer, hu-fuckin'-rah. I've never met anyone as loyal to a cause as you are. But sometimes you choose some jacked-up causes! Amy Strahan, I know I've left quite a legacy for you to fulfill. But get the press started on time, and nobody will tell the dif­ ference. Tunks, where exactly does being sports editor fit into the five-year plan? Jennifer Morehead, crack some more jokes. You've got a great sense of humor. Jaclyn Roberson is a scheming little so- and-so. But she's also a great friend. We'll always have Katz's, even if the rides home were always more exciting. All the copy and m akeup editors work a vital, but thankless job. Thank you all. But Khy, put the smut down! Finally, Mulcahy: I really didn't believe you after you lost the ME race to Sholnn and told me that it was okay, since you'd come back and be editor. But I doubt too many people ever thought an entertainment writer could become ME either. But Thompson came and m ade it all okay. I just have one question? When are you going to finish Spanish? love you all. basement: And now for some people outside the Malnar, take out the trash! And keep your guacamole to yourself. Alan Greenspan, thanks for giving me someone to look up to. And you too, John If I forgot anyone, it w asn't intentional. I molasses. Glenn. Rusty Todd, I owe you more than you know. Thanks so much for everything. I appreciate your teaching because you never bullshitted me, or any other student for that matter. Thanks also to Bob Jensen, Rosen- tal Alves, Griff Singer and Bob Price. Andrea Werzner, I'm sorry we only recently got to know each other. The same goes for Stacie Wright. But here's to the future. Mom and Dad, I think I'm at the point where I can say this out in public, with no strings attached. I love you both very much. And thanks for paying. Les, I really treasure our relationship now. Just don't con me into moving closer. And you do know what I mean. Derek (aka Vinnv Barbarino), summer 1997.'Nuff said. Geddie, thanks for teaching me the gold­ en rule. I'll let you know w hen I use it. Trooper Steve McQuagge, DPS, DH, AL, HMFIC, etc. etc. - Hope you and Nigel like it in the Valley. Thanks for teaching me some manners. And everything else. I count you as a brother. And a friend. And TJ gets mad props for burning dow n a dumpster. I guess we shouldn't have used the whole bag, huh? Jen and Emily, what can I say? Nothing can do you two justice. My confidants, my friends, my heartaches, you two have been it all. I truly hope I've been able to give as much to you two as you've given to me. The thing that really sucks about graduating is that I w on't always be near you two. But y'all still ride shotgun in my heart. I love you both. The only thing left to recount is my regrets. I don't have many, and I apologize to those of you that have had to listen to me bitch about these in the past: I should have been more upfront with my feelings. And not done so much on Valentine's Day. And stayed inside more often. And watched less TV. And gone skydiving. And told my par­ ents I loved them more. And bought more flowers. And worn more sunscreen. But most of all, I wouldn't dress up like C-lo was an entertainment writer, copyeditor, associate managing editor, associate entertain­ ment writer, entertainment editor, art director (briefly) and managing editor. A proud son of Ohio, he leaves UT for a job at The Wall Street Journal. Go West, go East or just Go At one time I had ambitions but I had them removed by a doctor at the UT Health Center. I leave UT after five years with two degrees and one less appen­ dix. Higher education has taught me: ■ Grades are nothing, expe­ rience is everything. ■ Taking chances doesn't hurt all that bad, really. ■ Your 20s are really a sec­ ond childhood. ■ Sleep is most key. ■ Guilt doesn't exist, so forget about it. ■ Sea Monkeys don't make good pets, tur­ tles do. ■ Travel now while you still can. ■ Cute men are usually gay, but make the best of friends. ■ The things you care the most about turn out to be the things you have the least time for. ■ Enjoy all the free things the university offers students. ■ Keep your friends, throw away the lovers — they start stinking faster The Texan has taught me a different les­ son. Nobody ever did anything very foolish except from some strong principle. There are some dam n sturdy principles down in the basement, along with a lot of hot air and journalistic integrity. Enter at your own risk. Randy Kramen, thanks for being there all these years and for taking it all off for me. Poker is not your game. Sholnn Free­ m an, 1 enjoyed feeding you and toting your ass around. And smile, you're a whole lot uglier when you don't. Carlo Longino (aJk.a. Longolo), you are much too cheeky for your own good and mine. And the future's wide open for the both of us. Enjoy! Spencer Prou, you have more lists than grade points, but your drive makes up for all that. Mulcahy, you're a melonhead, not a politician. As far as V-day, I was kidding, really... Amy Strahan, you should have been editor next year. You've got the brains and the talent, so why waste it by being edi­ tor. Adriene Jaeckle, you do what you w ant to and still manage to look out for a lucky few. Charlie Fonville, thanks for introducing me to Tenacious D. Dan Camevale, I think purple compliments your eyes and your groove thing. Mike Crissey, best of luck to you and your smok- Andrea W erzner TURTLE WOMAN ing habit. Melissa McEvers, life ain't that bad on the outside now is it? And who could forget Chamy, you did a national tour of copy jobs and came back calm, cool and cashless. My hat7s off to you. Thanks to all who refrained from throwing feminine products off our balcony and to the rest of you for being just as bad at karaoke as I am. In the outside world: Cynthia Duggan, here's a BEGAK! for ya and thanks for teaching me the need for some good home trainin'. Jenn Dunlap, it's been two years and w e're still standing. Don't stop now. We three have done good for ourselves. Yet, somehow we've still got a whole fridge full of old food and a tortoise lost behind the couch ... Jeffrey Heame, it's been four years and somehow I still respect and trust your ass completely. So, quit law school and move east with me. They have good bars there too. 1 promise. Jenn Sova, you're doing it and doing it well, thanks for making us smile. Tony Morales, I love you and your flaming shoes. Thanks for all the racquet. I o my honors buddies, one grain alcohol Slurpee on me, gum m ie bears included. Scott Johnson, we were always one job away from one another. Thanks for taking such good care of me all those years in the Vortex, I'm more grateful then I let on. Patrick Caballero, every school wanted you, and every girl wants you too, you'll see. Chris Hervey, we had some good times amongst the rock)' ones. Try not to forget them. Duane Thompson. Well, sorry no talk last week, someday, ok? Rob Heii, hope you find all of those missing utiles of yours. Ross Clark, you're one suave guy. Beth Pearson, we'll always have Melrose and margaritas. Bob Manz, you can sfill kick my ass, but I know you won't. Barbara Hoppe, good luck this summer and always remember how much you're really worth. Duane Pozza, you will always be more brooding than 1 am. Dan Johnson, congrats on your marriage and getting out of the Vortex. Nick Haigh, you manage to skirt by on the least work possible. I'm jealous. Amy Miller, you can do anything with style, even Bad Boyz. Holly Hummel, you're off to Panama ... have fun doing whatever it is you do. And last but not least, Colin, hope you're playing one hell of a hearts game up there. And to my little big brother, Brent, thanks for sharing most of my memories. Amber Warford, thanks for making him flex that big heart of his. You make me proud Schmutzig. I love you. The Statesman and Austin360 introduced me to a gruesome cast of nightsiders who miraculously get the news on the Web and managed to never miss a good Simpsons episode in the process. Karen Hinojosa, we will get those wigs one day and Intermob will rule. Will Heron, I'm in my robe await­ ing that portrait of mine. Ben Smylie, thanks for the support, I need it. Jerry Beck­ er, you and you alone can make me giggle like a schoolgirl. Tom Vaughn, thanks for the great send-off. "G runt" Tait, thanks for teaching me to chug Guiness and letting me play with your better half. And Eric Braun, two girls are better than one, always. I here are a couple of faculty members who've advised, lectured, scolded and all out directed me in my schooling a couple of times. Griff Singer, I'm proud I had the opportunity to pick your brain and gain your confidence; you're golden, but you already know that. Thanks also to Wayne Danielson, Don Heider, Rusty Todd, and Dominic Lasorsa for practical advice and an occasional push in the right direction. On the homefront: Mom, these degrees are just as much yours as mine. You made me a caring per­ son, a bad liar and a hard worker to boot. Curtis, I'm not sweating the small stuff and I owe that to you. G'ma and G 'pa keep the cookies and the lovin' coming. I love you all. I know exactly where I'm going from here. And that's straight to a bar to cele­ brate! I think Ronnie Reagan summed it up best: It's true that hard work never killed anybody, but I figure, why take the chance? It's time to pull out the hammock and snooze a bit. TSCHUES! Andrea was a news reporter, copy editor and feature writer at The Texan, and a content pro­ ducer with Austin360.com. She leaves UT for Europe and an eventual job on the East coast. It’s so hard to say ... This is my -30- column. I'm supposed to reflect on my tenure at this fine institution and say 'thank you' to friends, family and co-workers. It's ¿so a time to write stuff that doesn't represent the editorial board or the newspaper. I really want to say some mean shit, but I don't want to leave on a bad note (and someday I'm going to run for public office). Howev­ er, a few things must be said: Athletics' Director Deloss Dodds isn't worth shit iH iH T h W I for students. The Union is no longer a student entity — make it offices and classrooms. President Larry Faulkner should be a real leader and do everything in his power to drop the charges on the 10 students who were arrested for a peaceful protest. You are the leader of our communi­ ty and these are your students; this is a shameful moment in our school's history. Now I'll comment on what really matters in life: Good friends. Jen Sarver and Emily Fox: New Orleans was w on­ derful, but I guess a threesome is good anywhere. Jen we will rule the world one day, or at least run the rulers' election campaign. Spencer "The Man of M any Lists" Prou: Without you I wouldn't be editor. That means you get the blame, not the credit. Make sure you do a thumbs up for the camera after you save the planet. You really are one of the nicest people in the world. I solute you forever. Huuuuuurrrrrraaaaaaaaw. Sholnn Shoe Z. Freeman: You are the man, or maybe you're just going to work for the man. I'll be nice to you because someday I'll be asking you for a job. Since the beginning of my Texan career, you've been there yelling at everyone and making the it a beautiful, loving place. May your sorority girl drinking habits live forever. And when I decide to produce a movie you'll definitely be in charge of the extras. Michael Mulcahy LAME DUCK pus. From the big trips to Florida and Chicago to the little trips to the Draught Horse and Joe's Generic, the people of the O ld School were awesome. Alison Codlin: My favorite photo editor. Danny Hayes: The only 01 that I know. Banana Blender Surprise and huge wom en's are great mem­ ories. You've created immense pains in my life, from long bike rides to long Mescal nights, but it's all worth it. I'm almost free and can taste the fresh air. No more headaches. Hungry for a peep? Dan Carnival. (I'll spell your name however I dam n please) While I don't laugh at your jokes, I totally respect your work and w hat you've done for The Texan. Go Tinky Winky. M ike Crissey: The ideal reporter. Beth Wawema: I want to marry you just because you last name is so cool. Stephen Becker: Now you're big time at the Dal­ las Morning News, but I remember the good ol' days of Kerby Lane, Risk and tons of free concerts. Andrea W erzner Turtles are cool, but keep the snakes away from me. And please remember to dnnk lots of water, because five hours in the emer­ gency room can be dangerous. However, I do get a lot of use out of the back supporter.. Here's a list of some other great ones: Amy Spitzenberger, Holly Crawford, Elizabeth Souder, Caleb Canning, Bryan Mealer, John Hendrichs, Brian Davis, Tim Lord, Zack & Gaar, Renae Merle, Rob Russell, Tara Copp, Dave Barranco, FOJR, Kevin Butler and my favorite Texan staffer of all time Jen Schultz. All the TSP adults upstairs are evil but the paper w ouldn't work without you, so thanks. Brad, Danny, Joan and Evelyn, do you know where you chairs are? Amy Strahan: The best journalist I've knowm. Your hard work and devotion keep The Texan alive. While you were the Czarina for some, you were always a blessing for me. The paper is in your hands, I have no doubt that you'll shine. Representing the last of the Old School, good luck. Carlo Longino: My favorite Brit from Ohio. When I came to college I had dreams of making good friends, drinking tons of beer, getting in lots of trou­ ble and someday getting a degree — you've helped my with most of those. Long live secret agent Thompson. From the glory days of Johnny W alker and Entertainment to the m odem days of Hole in the Wall we were the Kings. I hope we get to party together for years to come. Randy Jaeckle and A driane Kramen. Did I get something backwards? Y'all are the best example of co-workers I've ever known. Y'all give me inspira­ tion in this cruel world of wacky relationships. RK it's been a pleasure living with my long lost Jewish brother. Kosher food rocks, but nothing is better than swimming or making movies. May the force be with you dam n fools waiting in line for tickets. Jay Defourscoreandsevenyearsago: I'm sure indie rock will survive while you write about buttercups and eating disorders for the other local daily. Finger Flave: You're not Ricky Williams, but I still think you deserve a fan club. Just stop drinking Bud Light, please. Mike Wilson: Your Saltlick kegs caused nothing but trouble, thank you very much. Jeff McDonald:You're a true madman. No one at The Texan is allowed to have a 3.9 GPA. You're a total disgrace and I'm proud to call you my friend. Good luck in San Angelo. Rene the Gatekeeper to the Underworld. Give Rob hell and don't take any messages for him. It's so nice to have someone in the basement who isn't insane, I don't know what you'll do when I'm gone. Claudia Grisales: One of two sane people to ever work in the basement. However, your drug problem could change that, so you should sell it all to me. Jennie Kennedy: You are poetry in motion. The spring '99 news was the best in many years.

Ryan Bauer: I can't believe you survived that news office. Get on you bike and ride away while you still can. Rhys Southan: A teenage freshman forever. Your columns are probably too much for the brainwashed morons at UT. One day the world will understand the beauty of your teachings. Barry Johnson: I don't understand the no mustard thing, but that's OK. However, for you to become a real man you must learn to love Willie Nelson. Hip Hop God Coletti: You're fucking crazy and I love it. The 7exan stays alive with punks like you. Jen Valentino: The reporter of the year. Stay away from the Union, you've been exposed to it too much already. Laura OffenbacherYou're such a pain in the ass. Stop smiling, stop being so nice, stop it, stop it, stop it. Cecily Sailer: How did you handle the bullshit of SG for so long? News is yours, have fun. Rita PauLThe Big Woman of the Year. Michael Tunks: Every time JK yells "hey Mike" I say "what" and then she starts to talk to you. I don't like other Mikes, so go to hell. Melissa Mason. You're too young for the corrupt influence of The Texan. Escape if you can, too late. Jennifer Morehead.You don't talk much, but I guess that7s because you too busy working hard. Rob Addy: You are now the supreme commander of page 4. Take your opinion and shove it up the ass of every administrator. Seriously — you now have an once-in-a-lifetime job. It is an honor to serve this community. The most important advice I have is to hire smart associate editors and always put the paper first. Brian Winter: Thanks for the good work. Victory escaped us, but you have plenty time for revenge, please get it. Carl Villarreall: Become a good lawyer and bring down the evil empire. down the quack world.

Griff Singer: The coolest professor ever. Mike Quinn: Nothing less than the greatest per­ son at UT. And Quinn's assistant Kathy should get flowers everyday for being so kind. The H onorable Mr. Robert Jensen, Ph.D. He prefers Bob,' but deserves so much more. Paula Poindexter: Professors like you make col­ lege actually worth the time and money. I learned more in Perry's governm ent class than most of my other classes combined. UT would be a true flagship if more professors cared as much and worked as hard as you do. Boris Kolba: 1 don't think Fargo is great, but your class was awesome. comico y inteligente. I odd Phillips el professor de español es m uy Dave McNeely: You're a role model for any young journalist, too bad you work for the competi­ tion. Karl Rove: Wow! You brought real life into the classroom. Please don't forget about teaching when you go to the White House. (P.S. can I have a job?) I want to thank all those wonderful supporters who helped me become editor of The Daily Texan Stephanie CarterThank you, Thank you, Thank you. Nirav the Corruption Coordinator Extraordinaire Lucky Charms are my specialty, but you're the Slurpee master. Becky Flores: I don't own a TV, but you did a kick- ass job at KVR-TV. Mark Miller: My radio doesn't work, but I love KVRX. The FilmFeast never dies. Colby Angus Black your friendship provided great lessons for my reign. I'm educated on cartoons, Bastille Day, picket signs and the importance of Texas pride. However, I must embarrass you by telling the entire world that your farts in Chicago stunk more than Bevo after Taco Bell. Annie Holand: For all the criticism that I gave you this year, you're a good person and I trust you'll go on to do great things. Ty Adams: The best friend I have who is a dum b blond from Montana. Geoff Clark: Grease is the word. It's been along time and you're a true friend. Next year if you miss living in our nice clean house and having a fridge full of beer, I'm sure Ty will take care of it. Family: The best influence in my life is my big bro Danny. From diaper days to college haze you've cleaned up my mess. Dad: Your sacrifices for me are appreciated. All my success comes from your support and love. I'm proud to say that I'm a momma's boy. M om is - the biggest influence in my life and I can't imagine a day without your guidance. Drew: Being a step dad isn't easy and I can't - believe you ever put up with me. Thanks for you understanding. DKE: GZ, GI, Jeremy Gough, Mike Q and Huffy. Rohit you will be the spiritual leader of the 21st Century, and I better get the book and movie rights. Forget the math, think money, money, money. Aaron Day: We know the truth and it ain't setting us free. So many ideas, so much time, so many ideas. Last thing, tell Chris I'll bring back some tulips for her this summer. Naturally, the last person to thank is Richard "The Censor" Finnell. He's The Texan’s main man. With­ out your work w e'd be sued every week and late every night. One day the crazy people will be all gone and you fife will be peaceful, but until then good luck and thank you. For anyone who was left out: Complain to the new editor, call the office or write a letter to the editor. Austin advice: Dine at Kerby Lane Cafe as much as possible. Eat Stubbs' BBQ. Swim in Barton Springs all year. Drink Little City coffee. Play disc golf at Pease Park. Read the Austin Chronicle every Thursday after you read The Texan. And search for the miles of tunnels under this campus. I've been there under UGL, under Kinsolving, everywhere. Go look for them, if s hot as hell, but worth it. But be careful, the Eyes of Texas could be watching you. -30- Mulcahy is jobless and will wander around Europe and South America during the next few months.

The Texas U nion Council M ulti- Media Com m ittee will kick off the d readed week w ith a screening of Speed on a drive-in screen on the South Mall Friday. The free event begins at 8:30 p.m. w ith a S an d ra Bullock look-alike and Keanu Reeves act-alike contest.

Mark C affey, th e A u stin A ll-Star gu est instructor, will host the free session from 5:30-7 p.m. . A rthur Rauch, a learning special­ ist at th e L e a rn in g Skills C en ter, said aside from being fun, exercise — along w ith ad e q u a te sleep and piroper nutrition — is vital in final exam preparation. "I always say, 'say your prayers, go to bed a n d get a good n ig h t's sleep, " Rauch said. The LSC also rec o m m en d s fre­ q u ent s tu d y breaks — 10 m inutes for every hour of stu d y in g — and p rio ritiz in g exam s, p a v in g m ore a tte n tio n to courses w ith in o n e 's major and less to electives.

The LSC requests that students call and make reservations for the com­ prehensive reviews. In addition, the LSC continues to offer its Learning Lab, w here peer c o u n s e lo rs a s s is t s tu d e n ts w h o study independently. The Learning Lab, offered most of the year, closes for the semester May 11. S tudents m ay also contract p ri­ v a te tu to rs th ro u g h th e LSC, for $8.75 an hour. A cc o rd in g to th e o ffice o f th e o m b u d sm a n , stu d e n ts s h o u ld be aw are of University policies regard­ ing finals. Students can request the delay of a final grade in a class if they fail the final exam and have at least a "C" average in the class prior to the exam. "It's so m e th in g th at, as far as I know , is rarely invoked," said Jim V ick, v ic e p r e s id e n t o f s tu d e n t affairs. Vick said in fre q u e n t use of the rule is probably due to a com bina­ tion of lack of stu d e n t aw a re n e ss and unw illingness of professors to allow re-exam ination. If th e in stru c to r ag rees to a re ­ exam ination, the new grade m ay be substituted — provided it is a "C" or better. Policy also req u ires s tu d e n ts to take all exam s as scheduled, regard­ less of the nu m b er of tests sched- u le d in o n e d a y , u n le s s s p e c ia l a r r a n g e m e n ts a re m a d e w ith instructors.

At-risk youth get support Ashley Kosiewicz Daily Texan Staff In an effort to stress the im por­ tance of education, the University is hosting its 14th annual comprehen­ sive sum m er program for at-risk high school students. The Youth Opportunities Unlimit­ ed Program, or Y.O.U., is aimed at enhancing students' abilities to grad­ uate from high school, as well as acquainting students w ith a w ide variety of educational and vocation­ al alternatives for the future. Each summer, approximately 115 students from the Gulf Coast w ho are entering 9th or 10th grade are chosen to come to the University for a period of seven and a half weeks. While at the University, students d e d ic a te h a lf of each w eek to instruction in math, language arts or independent study, and the other half to a part-time job on campus. In addition, the 1999 summer pro­ gram plans to offer a new health com ponent. S tu d en ts, w ith help from the A ustin Fire D epartm ent and Austin Emergency Medical Ser­ vices, will participate in a CPR certi­ fication program. Reyes R. Perez, assistant h ead ­ master for Y.O.U., said the program utilizes educational an d em ploy­ m ent co m pon en ts — giving s tu ­ dents the benefit of experiencing both. "We try to get them at an early age where they will have the time to take adv antage of the lessons we teach in our program," Reyes said. "The ultim ate goal is first to help them grad u ate from h igh school, start thinking about higher educa­ tion and if they're not going to go that route, prepare them through the employment component [of the pro­ gram]."

Sarah Gainer Q a r a l l Cl o i n n r Daily Texan Staff Urging I’exans to pray for the nation and the state, Gov. George W. Bush spoke Thurs­ day at the C ap ito l as part of the annual National Day of Prayer. The even t, " L i g h t T he N a tio n W ith Prayer," was one of about 20,000 programs across the country commemorating the inter­ denominational day of prayer, which Con­ gress declared in 1988 as the first Thursday in May. The Texas House and Senate both passed re so lu tio n s T h u rsd a y d ecla rin g the first Thursday in May as a day of prayer. "O u r fou n d in g fathers envisio ned one nation — one nation under God," Bush told a p p r o x im a te ly 200 p eop le a tten d in g the event. He asked Texans to pray for the men and women of Kosovo, the citizens of Colorado affected by the massacre at Columbine High School and those devastated by the tornadoes in Oklahoma, Kansas and Texas. Bush added that he recently visited a Texas state of Texas.” — Gov. George W. Bush school ravaged by tornadoes and heard one common statement. "A nd the interesting thing I heard was every on e was saying, 'T h a n k God — the power of prayer works,'" he said. Bush said he prays to God for guidance, peace of heart and patience, adding, "God bless the great state of Texas." Greg Davidson, chairman of the National Day of Prayer Capitol Task Force, said the day was a time of prayer for the state and nation. "It's important for the people to see their state leaders stand before them and publicly p r o c la im th eir r e la t io n s h ip w ith G o d ," Davidson said. "And we feel that is done best through prayer." Remembering the young woman in Col­ orado who gave her life when one of the shooters asked her if she believed in God, Shir lee McCoy, a Round Rock resident and employee of Dell Computers, said it is impor­ tant for Christians to be bold about their faith. "It's important for [people] to starid up and be counted," McCoy said. "A young girl in Colorado gave her life because she said she believed in God. It's the least we can do as believers [to be present today]." Frank and Barbara M arshall, natives of Dallas visiting Austin Thursday, stopped to hear the g o v ern o r sp eak. They said it's im portant for believers in God, especially now, to pray for the morality of the country. "W e feel like that this country needs to turn back to m orals — Christian m orals," Barbara Marshall said.

About 250 people lined up at Toys R Us in Capitol Plaza for a midnight sale of the new Star Wars products. Adriane J aeckle /D A ILY TEXA N STAFF Right: An unidentified fan gazes at the new line of Star Wars action figures in a display case. Star Wars fans and collectors spent upwards of $500 on toys from the prequels. Rare pieces from the action figure line include M ace Windu and Darth Maul. Continued from p age 1 The answer is simple: Star Wars is a cultural phenomenon. W ith opening night approach­ ing, Star Wars mania is reaching a fevered pitch in Austin. And die­ hard fans are spending time and m oney to be the first in line for merchandise and the movie itself. In George We Trust A w ise, w rinkly oV fe lla once said: "M erch an d isin g , m erch an d is­ ing! W here the real m oney from the movie is made." No, it w asn't George Lucas. Or Yoda, for that matter. It was Yogurt, a parody of the Jed i m a ste r, from M el B ro o k s' Spaceballs. And boy, was he dead on. On Sunday around 9:30 p.m ., fans started lining up at the Toys R Us in Capital Plaza for the unveil­ ing of the new Episode 1 toys at a "midnight madness" sale. A crowd of about 250 showed up to get a glimpse of the new fig­ ures, which include Mace Windu, D arth M aul and Ja r Ja r B in ks, among others. Some fans dressed as characters from the old movies: a Wampa, an Imperial Guard, Luke in Bespin fatigues and Obi Wan Kenobi. O nce the doors opened, rabid fans stream ed in, snatching up arm loads of action figures, dolls, miniatures — anything they could lay their hands on. A fter piling their booty into shopping carts and baskets, fans made camp in neigh­ boring aisles, surveying their finds. "Did you get a Darth Maul?" No, but I got an Anakin. You get an Obi Wan?" "Yeah, but somebody stole it." Jeff Kahan, a graduate student in the School of Music whose e-mail address is "oboewan", rounded up a near-complete set of the action figures and some Episode I Legos. "I just grabbed one of each [of the toys] and put it into a cart," said K ahan, w ho w ore a Ben Kenobi costume. Kahan said he spent a month's rent — $500 — on the toys. 1 a ctu a lly saved up for this event," Kahan said. Some couldn't afford half of the things they grabbed. Eddie Vertigo, 24, was recently laid off from Dell Computer. But that didn't stop him from getting into the fray. "I just went for the figures," said Vertigo, who brought more than $100 to spend. "I got down on my hands and knees, crawling through people's legs to get them." David H enderson, an architec­ ture/;architectural engineering stu-’ d lM k tf d he was going to drop a classA? nad signed up for this fall to pay for his toys. "When I get home I'm going to get on TEX and drop [the class]," Henderson said.

O fficials for Regal C inem as — w h ich o p e r a te s M e tr o p o lita n , Gateway, Lakeline and Riverside — said Regal theaters will not let people save places in line. "If you're in line and you need a 12-hour break, it's fine if you get someone to take your place," said Phil Zacheretti, senior vice presi­ dent for marketing at Regal Cine­ mas. "But we will not allow som e­ one to save a place for 50 or 60 people." Zacheretti also said some Regal locations may run the film for 24 hours straight on the first day. A lis t o f th e a te r s th a t w ill r e c e iv e m u ltip le p rin ts — and therefore be able to give non-stop showings — is still pending.

Kevin M iller, a Plan II junior, said he and about 50 of his closest friends are planning to stand in line for tickets starting this Friday. "M ost o f the people are people w ho used to liv e in the hon ors dorm," he said. "W e've been setting up plans for this over e-mail, and we have som ew here betw een 50 and 70 people on the list right now."

"W e have six-h o u r shifts that peop le can sign up fo r." M iller explained . "If you d o n 't w ait in line at least 12 hours, you have to pay a $2 surcharge, but if you wait for m ore than 24 hours, you get your ticket free."

He isn't even considered the best player in the Texas middle infield by most observers. Shortstop and big league prospect Jason Moore gets that honor. Nicholson is a quiet guy and he's the farthest thing from cocky that you'll ever meet. He's not going to say it, so some­ one's going to have to do it for him — Nicholson may just be the most consis­ tent all-around player on the Longhorn roster and there's a stat sheet to prove it. The sophomore has started all 53 games this season for No. 21 Texas, post­ ing a .323 batting average and a .985 fielding percentage — both good for third on the team. He has the fewest strikeouts of any Texas regular and has- n t grounded into a double play all year. On Monday, Nicholson finally got some recognition. When the Horns travel to Stillwater Okla., for their final series of the regular season — a three-game set against Okla­ homa State at Allie R Reynolds Stadium — Nicholson will carry with him the title of Big 12 Conference Player of the Wfeek.

Consistency is exactly what Texas (34- 19 overall, 17-10 Big 12) is looking for right now. The Horns have no chance for a Big 12 regular season championship and already have a spot locked up in the conference tournament So with the exception of a slight change in winning percentage and the possibility of moving up or down a spot or two from fourth in the conference standings, this weekend's series with the Cowboys (34-13, 13-8) becomes almost meaningless in terms of wins and losses. Instead, Texas will focus on begin­ ning to build what it hopes will be a snowball of momentum that will con­ tinue to grow as the team heads into the Big 12 tourney and the NCAA regionals "It's important to get momentum and the confidence that comes with it," Texas head coach Augie Garrido said. "All that they've been working for is still available to them. The only thing we've lost here so far is the Big 12 Champi­ onship and there's lots of ways to get the other prizes that are available."

It's really easier because you are warm from running and you get in a rhythm. You don't have to set up on the perimeter and wait to get a shot." Charles Barkley has been push­ ing for more em phasis on the run­ ning game with Dickerson and the Rockets other rookie starting guard. "We need to utilize the young legs of Michael and Cuttino (Mob­ ley)," Barkley said. "The Rockets can't play like they did five years ago. Hakeem can't do it all by him ­ self now. We hav en 't utilized Michael or Scottie well this season. "I went to Scottie and told him if we don't w in the cham pionship they're going to blame us so let's go A y out playing the way we want," Barkley said. It m ight be that the Rockets are just now blending their talents to the point that the transition game will work. Tomjanovich has been preaching the running game all sea­ son.

He was 39. Plano police chief Bruce Glasscock said an unidentified friend who had been told to go to Tuinei's house to check on him found Tuinei uncon­ scious in a vehicle. Efforts to revive him failed, and he was pronounced dead upon arriving at Medical Cen­ ter of Plano, a north Dallas suburb. The cause of death was not imme­ diately known. Glasscock said foul play, alcohol or drugs were not believed to be involved. There is nothing in the investiga­ tion at this time that would indicate that," Glasscock said. A preliminary report from medical examiners was expected by midafter­ noon Thursday. Flowever, Glasscock said it could take several days for any information definitive from autopsy or toxicology reports. The chief said he wasn't sure how long Tuinei had been passed out. "The only information we have at this point is that it was a good por­ tion of the morning," he said. Although Tuinei didn't have as high a profile as teammates such as Troy Aikman, Emmitt Smith or even fellow offensive lineman Nate New­ ton, "Tui" (TWOey) was extremely popular in the locker room and the community.

After losing 10-time All-American Mer- lene Frazer to an already thin sprint team, Kearney found herself at a fork in the road as to w hich w ay her team and program w ould head. It w as obvious w hat she w anted — a handful of sprinters. What she pulled from the deck w as a sm all-tow n athlete from Fair- filed, Texas; a face from the inmer city school's of Houston; and a p ro d ­ uct straight off the streets of Long Beach, California. The risks were there. Kearney kept her hand. Today, she c o u ld n 't feel better about that decision. "There is no w ay you can predict the level of success that each of these young ladies have attained since they've been here," Kearney said. T h ey 'v e been a major part of the team from day one." W hat seniors Kim M cGruder, N anceen Perry and LaKiesha Backus Tumei C o n t i n u e d f r o m p a g e 9 T E X A S T R A C K have done for Texas over the past four years am ounts to 23 All-Ameri­ can honors, three national cham pi­ onships (with this y ear's outdoor cham pionship in June still to go) and no finish by Texas lower than third in the indoor and ou td o o r team standings. The three have anchored four of the seven fastest 4xl00-m eter times in school history. Their proudest feat m ay have come at last year's o u t­ door cham pionships w here they edged out LSU for the 4xl00-meter title, breaking a seven-year-old school record in the process* the door; "We w ere at they brought us in the house," Kearney said. "They came in and im m ediate­ ly w ent after num ber one. Regard­ less of w hether they attained it or not, they came in seeking a national cham pionship." For four years, the trio of M cG rud­ er, Perry and Backus have been the face of Texas w om en's track, let alone its sprint squadron. This w eek­ end's Texas A&M All-Comers Meet will be the last team com petition for this group before the Big 12 and NCAA cham pionships. For Kearney it is a forcoming goodbye she is struggling to accept. "For som e of them it's like I can't believe this is it," Kearney said. "It's definitely going to be a challenge and a change." One athlete w ho know s just the feeling of running against this trio over the years is former Longhorn and 23-time All-American Carlette G uidry. At last w eek en d 's Texas In vitational G uidry m an ag ed to snag victory from Texas' sea of orange in the 100-meters before being sidelined by injury. Perry, who finished second in the race, w ent on to take the 200-meter race-notching the second fastest time in the nation in the process. Basically when I come out here and train with the team I have to be ready or they're going to p u t it to me," G uidry said. "It's just like I'm in an international race, the quality of training I'm getting w ith them ." Follow ing S atu rd ay's co m peti­ tion, Perry, Backus, M cG ruder and com pany will return to the track M ay 21 for the Big 12 C ham pi­ onships at Baylor, where Texas will try for their third straight Big 12 title. Aikman praised Tuinei, a close friend and teammate for nine years, for the influence he had on fellow players. "When we look back at the different times that we've been with Mark over the years, I think a smile comes to all of our faces because of the type of guy he was," Aikman said at Valley Ranch. That's how I'm going to choose to remember him, as the fun-loving guy that he was." "He was just a good person, always had a smile on his face and always would take time to talk to any individ­ ual," Lowboys defensive line coach Jim Bates said. He was just a good team guy." The team canceled a v oluntary w o rk o u t sch eduled for Thursday. Several players and coaches w ho h ad arrived for the practice left in a they so lem n m ood. M any said w ere to too sh o o k u p reporters. talk to "It's a sad moment, not just for players b u t for the whole organiza­ tion," said linebacker Randall G od­ frey, a team m ate for one season. "It's sad for his family, but you also hurt for guys like Troy Aikman, Moose (Daryl) Johnston, Charles Haley — those guys w ho had m emories with him. That's w ho really feels it." Dallas coach Ken Hitchcock. "He had been down about the chances he missed. You could see that goal gave him life and made him a different kind of player." Belfour earned his fifth shutout and 50th career playoff victory by shutting down the Blues, who defeated Phoenix in a seven game series while Dallas was resting for nine days. Hull scored his first playoff goal for the Stars just 49 seconds into the second period to make it a 2-0 lead. Hull, who played 10 years for St. Louis, skated with the puck to the right circle and unleashed one of his powerful slap shots which Grant Fuhr saw go between his legs into the net.

If it had been a pickup game against Shaq, or anyone else, Iverson w o u ld n 't have hesitated. "Everybody stay hum ble," Iver­ son told his friend, Q ue Gaskins, as they settled in at a restaurant just outside the city to w atch Iverson's dream of an NBA scoring title becom e reality. W hen Shaq fell short, there were cheers, cham pagne and even a few tears from Iverson, w ho becam e the 76ers' first scoring cham pion since Wilt Cham berlain in 1965-66. "I've w orked so hard," said Iver­ son, em bracing his friends and fam ­ ily W ednesday night w hen O 'N eal fell far short of the 40 points he needed to pass Iverson for the scor­ ing lead. "All m y dream s are com ing true." After scoring 33 points in the Six­ ers' 105-100 overtime victory over the D etroit Pistons W ednesday night, Iverson left the arena not know ing w hether it w as enough to capture his first scoring title. O'N eal, playing against Portland on the West Coast, scored 18 points and lost the scoring race 26.75 to 26.31 in one of the closest battles in NBA history. O'Neal, w ho led the league in scoring in 1994-95, also lost by .44 points to David Robinson in 1993-94. "It w ould have been very selfish for me to try and get 40 tonight," O 'N eal said. The first scoring title of the post- Michael Jordan era went to Iverson, a 6-foot speed demon who has been crit­ icized for everything from his criminal record and fashion statements to his brief history of selfishness and per­ ceived arrogance on the court. Just as he does w hen he drives fear­ lessly to the basket, Iverson stood up to all the giants who have led the NBA in scoring — names like Chamberlain, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Jerry West and Elvin Hayes. He is the shortest scoring champion in NBA history, eclipsing the 6-foot-l Nate "Tiny" Archibald, who did it in 1972-73. "I think it w ould be a great for the league, a little kid w inning the scor­ ing ch am pion ship," said Sixers coach Larry Brown, w ho h ad a one- on-one m eeting w ith Iverson before the game. Brown w anted to prep Iverson for the night ahead, because he'd been through this before. Brown w as the Denver coach w hen D avid Thom p­ son w ent into the last gam e of the season in a tight scoring battle with San A ntonio's George Gervin. Thom pson scored 73 points for the Nuggets, only to w atch G ervin go out later and pour in 63 to win the title by .07 points. David and I talked before the game, and we all wanted David to win the scoring title," Brown said. "And he didn't w ant anybody to help him. "I w as ju st ho p in g th at Allen w ould get the scoring title w ithout us doing anything silly." Iverson and Gaskins, w ho is in charge of Iverson's brand nam e at Reebok, quickly ducked out of prac­ tice w hen reporters arrived Thurs­ day. M aybe he w anted to let the scoring title fade aw ay and focus on a more im portant m atter — his first trip to the playoffs and the Sixers' ’ first since 1990-91. Philadelphia clinched the sixth seed in the East w ith the victory and plays O rlando in the first rounding beginning Sunday. "H e know s m y agenda," team president Pat Croce said of Iverson. "Get me a ring." In the closing seconds of the game, Iverson passed up one final, stat-padding shot, choosing instead to dribble out the clock. He did it in style, laughing and high-stepping around like a kid on a playground. As a rookie, or even last year, Iver­ son alm ost certainly w ould have heaved the ball tow ard the rim. "It's only m y third year," Iverson said. "I think the problem w ith m e com ing in w as th at people looked at m y talents and they d id n 't w ant to let me grow as a basketball player and as a person. I think over time, m aybe people will start to u n d er­ stand me and som e of the critics will back off." Later, am ong his close circle of friends, Iverson had no trouble let­ ting his em otions go. "He got pretty teary-eyed, h u g ­ ging everybody," Gaskins said. "He w as just thanking all the people that w ere close to him and stuck by him and really believed in him ." C o n t i n u e d f r o m p a g e 9 C o n t i n u e d f r o m p a g e 9 som ething and that will continue. I'm glad those guys m ade a com m it­ m ent to it. It's just going to get bet­ ter." Pippen struggled to get into the flow of the Rockets offense m uch of the season but he's adapted to the running. "We've been into the up-tem po game and that's something I'd been hoping to put in earlier in the sea­ son," Pippen said. "I think it's easier for us on offense. It allows the guys to get open looks instead of having the big guys pound it inside."

Although maintaining the anonym ity of the- brands, one could not help but notice the unusual addition of clear guitars to their slew of unrecognizable gear. "They sound alright, but they're not the best," Means explained. "The origi­ nal clear instruments were made by Ampeg, and although they were made out of plastic, they were pretty good. Those were kind of expensive, but we got the cheap Japanese rip-off version. We had to really fix them up. There were really shitty guitar pick-ups on my bass, so it did not sound very bassy. They don't play fantastic, but for a live show they are fun." Althóugh instruments seem to be an issue not to be taken lightly, Means admits he has been thinking about another use for his old bass. I alw ays thought that I should switch right before the last song, and then smash it to pieces," he said. "But, you know, it's actually really difficult to break a guitar. You have to be super fucking excited to break something. Even shitty guitars are sturdy." Vocoders, an instrument that gives the human voice a robotic tone, are an unprecedented Trans Am accessory, and used heavily on their latest record. The reason they chose them was not the "retro-cool" aspect but because none of the members had a voice strong enough to stand alone. "We had tried to do vocals before, and they weren't very good," Means said. "This was an easy way to slip vocals in." Since the artistic direction of Future World is such a departure from their last release, The Surveillance, one could not help but wonder if any band mem­ ber' s musical influences have changed. Apparently not, but there have been some records that have shaped their sound permanently, like The Joshua Tree by U2. "Phil and I try to write songs that sound that good," Means said. "The first tim e I heard Fugazi or Sonic Youth, I was pretty excited." The aptly titled Future World has a lot of futuristic themes. But Means is quick to point out that the album does- n t have a detailed vision of the future. 'I think that the songs have a pretty bleak view. I'm all for the Apocalypse, but I don't think it will happen because too much money would be lost."

Show starts at 11 p.m. with several area merchants and designers showing off their original designs.

It's u su a lly the T h e D a il y T e x a n ra u n r, m a y 7,19 9 9 ‘Election’ wins in Rhys Southan Daily Texan Staff In the surprisingly sophisticated MTV film Election, high school student Tracy Flick (Reese W itherspoon) em bodies w hat w ould happen if blind am bition always overrode human compassion and reasoning. Tracy has assimilated all of the messages of school, society, family and the iaspirational posters on her wall so well that she engages in "malicious obe­ dience,'' doing everything she's told to such an extent that it tortures everyone around her. Tracy is an inevitable candidate for student council president, and the fact that she is running unopposed terrifies her idealistic teacher Jim M cA llister (Matthew Broderick). He and Tracy have an antagonistic relationship that remains hidden until the election puts everything into turmoil. They both claim through voice-over to feel sorry for each other, but neither of them sees their own faults. One great sequence visually explains Tracy's perspective of the meaningless life of those who teach instead of do. She sees Jim in a time-warp where he draws a triangle for the executive, legislative and judicial branches of g overnm ent over and over as years pass, teaching the exact same things for an entire lifetime. However, Jim has the same perspective about Tracy and suggests that her isolat­ ing drive for success, canng more about ELECTION Starring: M atthew Broderick, Reese W ith­ erspoon, Chris Klein, Jessica Campbell Director: Alexander Payne Playing at: Arbor, Dobie, Metropolitan, Tinseltown North Rating: ★ ★ ★ ★ (out of five) destinations than journeys, makes her life empty. Jim dares to interfere with the system and destiny by encouraging injured foot­ ball player Paul Metzler (C h n s Klein) to ru n ag ainst Tracy, claim ing this will make the race more democratic but really turning it into a popularity contest Paul initially doesn't w ant to get in Tracy's way, but Jim's flattery convinces him to run. Klein shows here and in the upcom­ ing American Pie that he is terrific at play­ in g earn est-b u t-stu p id jocks w ho are charm ing because of their m ixture of sweetness and ignorance. Election has a keen sense of detail that provides laughs with seemingly point­ less events, like when a janitor watches as Jim accidentally tosses old Chinese food on the floor 1 hen the m ovie shocks w'hen all the details tie together so intri­ cately th at only destiny and fate can explain the circumstances. Using high school elections to satirize real elections brilliantly shows how petty any campaigning process can become. There are a lot of flashbacks and voice­ overs in Election, avoiding the use of aw kw ard expository lines to explain important plot elements. These are some of the most complex and lengthy flash­ backs since Bruce Lee had a flashback within a flashback within a flashback in Enter the Dragon. The various voice-overs provide insight into all the characters and build up expectations for a horrible cata­ strophe. These devices eventually help us understand Jim's fear of Tracy. The filmmakers made an unusual but intelligent decision to focus on the well- intentioned teacher more than the stu­ dents. In one subplot, Jim lusts after another woman, channeling his desire for Tracy onto her. He quickly finds out that a relationship with a woman his age has the potential to be just as devastating to his personal life as a relationship with Tracy w ould have been for his profes­ sional life. There's much about Election that's sim- ilar to Rushmore, ano th er recent high school comedy. They both contain bee stings, people who spit on cars and cen­ tral teenage characters who are too ambi­ tious for their own good. The main differ­ ence betw een the films is that the less funny Rushmore remains unconvincing while Election is credible and entertain­ ing, w ith a m ore critical view of high Trans Am rew in’ for more Elizabeth Nottingham Daily Texan Staff C om bining K raftw erk, Black Sab­ bath, and a slew of foreboding millen­ n iu m p ro p h e c ie s, T h rill Jockey fa v o rite s T ran s A m a re b ac k w ith Future World, one of the most fresh and impressive sounds of '99.
