I think we have enough time to argue about these questions, so I d o n 't w an t to delve into them now," he said. But w hen talk tu rn e d to Taiw an, Zhu invoked A braham Lincoln as a "m odel" to justify C hina's policy of refusing to rule out military force to reunite with that island. . . "Abraham Lincoln, in order to main­ tain the unity of the United States and oppose the independence of the south­ ern part, resorted to the use of force and fought a war for that, for maintain­ ing the unity of the United States," he said. Clinton stood by, a bemused expres­ sion on his face, as he heard his Chi­ nese guest's words translated into Eng­ lish. The president said he had raised the allegations of Chinese espionage and cam paign contributions in a private m eeting W ednesday night and that Zhu had given him the same answ er he gave reporters today. As for trade issues, Cl inton stressed th a t th e tw o le a d e rs h a d m a d e progress and said he hopes obstacles blocking China's entry into the World Trade Organization could be cleared away by year's end. madras never looked so good HEWS BREFS U.S. asks Annan for talks with Libya ■ UNITED NATIO N S — Eigh­ teen years after breaking diplomatic relatio n s, the U nited States has asked U.N. Secretary-General Kofi Annan to arrange face-to-face talks with Libya, U.S. officials said Thurs­ day. "W e're w illing to have such a meeting," said Peter Burleigh, the deputy U.S. ambassador, explain­ ing th a t it w o u ld likely include B ritain and w o u ld focus on the steps that Libya m ust take before U.N. sanctions can be lifted perma­ nently. The U.S. initiative marks a signif­ icant change in W ashington's atti­ tu d e to w ard Libya follow ing its handover Monday of two suspects in the 1988 bombing of a Pan Am jet. The handover triggered the sus­ pension of U.N. sanctions imposed in 1992. Nonetheless, the U nited States still suspects M oam mar Gadhafi's governm ent of terrorist activities. W ash in g to n refu sed to lift U.S. sanctions after the handover of the two Libyans for trial in the Nether­ la n d s u n d e r S cottish law , an d Libya's U.S. assets remain frozen. A m erican s a re also esse n tia lly banned from trading with Libya or traveling there. * Still, Washington's agreement to a meeting, which is expected to take place in the next few weeks, is an im portant step in ending Libya's isolation. A U.S. official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said a resumption of diplomatic relations,, which were broken in 1981, would likely be raised at the talks. Ten tons of pot seized in Mexico ■ MEXICO CITY — M exican soldiers seized nearly 10 tons of m arijuana hidden in cargo trucks during two separate searches in the c e n tra l sta te of Z acatecas, the Defense Ministry said Thursday. Soldiers at a checkpoint near Rio Grande found 6.24 tons of marijua­ na in a re frig e rato r box h id d e n among bags of limes Tuesday. The driver of the truck, Darwin Arroyo Nava, was arrested. The ministry said Arroyo's truck •had been heading north to the d ty of Chihuahua, which is 235 miles south of the U.S. border. Also Tuesday, soldiers found 3 1/2 tons of marijuana in three pick­ u p tru c k s at a n o th e r Z acatecas liighway checkpoint. The three dri­ vers, Juan Garcia, Eleazar Cortez and Raul Cortez, were arrested. — Compiled from Associated Press reports • I f * Officials fear returning refugees may be used as human shields • Associated Press BELGRADE, Y ugo slavia — Yugoslavia urg ed refugees to return hom e Thursday, declaring "peace has prevailed in Kosovo" and saying its 14- month war against ethnic Albanian sep­ aratists was over. But Western officials feared those same refugees w ould be used as hum an shields against NATO attacks. As the U nited States pledged that NATO will press ahead with the bomb­ ing campaign against Yugoslavia, a for­ m er Cypriot president arrived in Bel­ grade to try to w in freedom for three captured U.S. soldiers. His task could prove difficult: A hard-line Serbian vice premier ruled out any release as long as the NATO bombardment continued. On the 16th day of the U.S.-led air assault, hopes for the prisoners' release w ere m ixed w ith concern over th ou­ sa n d s of e th n ic A lb an ian refu g ees whose fate was unknow n a day after Yugoslavia sealed off its borders and stopped their flight out of Kosovo. The Y ugoslav governm ent, w hich says it is observing a unilateral cease-fire in Kosovo since Tuesday for Orthodox Easter, claimed the refugees were vol­ untarily heading back to their homes. As night fell Thursday, several thou­ sa n d p eo p le ch an tin g "Y ugoslavia! Yugoslavia!" gathered on tw o m ajor bridges in Belgrade and the remaining Danube River bridge in the city of Novi Sad to serve as v o lu n te e r "h u m a n shields" against NATO attacks. Shortly after 10 p.m., air-raid sirens sounded in Belgrade. S pyros K y p rian o u , c u rre n tly the speaker of the Cypriot parliament, said he planned to meet Yugoslav President Slobodan Milosevic on Friday and that the Americans might be freed during the long Easter weekend. He called on NATO to reciprocate with a cease-fire over the holiday, something the alliance has refused. Vice Premier Vojislav Seselj, leader of the influential Serbian Radical Party, told reporters Thursday that releasing the Americans w as "out of the ques­ tion." U.S. State D epartm ent spokesm an James P. Rubin said only an uncondi­ tional release w o u ld be acceptable. "Any attempt to use this as a bargaining chip is both illegal and immoral," he said. NATO allies hav e d ism isse d Y u g o slav ia's claim s of a u n ila te ra l cease-fire, saying the bom bing cam ­ paign w ill co n tin u e un til M ilosevic allows the return of all refugees, w ith­ draw s all troops and accepts a peace plan for Kosovo. Associated Press n c c n r» lo fo d Dpam > WASHINGTON — President Clin­ ton and Chinese Premier Zhu Rongji m et at the W hite H ouse today, then sparred — sometimes good-naturedly — at a jo in t n e w s co nference th a t ranged from trade to hum an rights. Zhu denied that China's spies have stolen secrets from American research laboratories or that its agents funneled campaign contributions to Democrats. He said he would help the Americans investigate such reports — "so long as you can provide some clues." "I d o n 't believe such a story," he said of the allegations of Chinese espi­ onage at top-secret American research laboratories. He added pointedly: "Don't under­ estimate the ability of the Chinese peo­ ple to develop their own technology." In opening rem arks, Clinton said that in their private talks, the two sides had m ade progress on thorny trade issues. Despite China's efforts at politi­ cal reform , it m u st "g iv e citizen s greater freedom" to enhance their lives, he said. "It is troubling that in the past year China has taken some steps backward on human rights and arrested people" for expressing their view s, C linton said, calling on China to give greater latitude to the Dalai Lama. Zhu gave short shrift to such talk. "P resident C linton m entioned all of * «4 Á H fiv'' * A m erican H om ecrafters A u s tin W rap Co.

The'' are not necessarily those of the University administration, the Board of Regents or the Texas Student Publications Board of Operating Trustees. In case you haven't heard, there is going to be a little problem on Jan. 1, 2000. Apparently Bill Gates, the guy who invented the computer, isn't that smart and forgot to account for the new millennium. His ominous mistake will either cause a majority of computers to crash resulting in worldwide social chaos or will tem­ porarily cause longer lines at the supermarket — depending on whom you ask. This year 2000 conundrum has been cleverly coined Y2K by the mass media, which has naturally devel­ oped an infatuation with the idea of worldwide social chaos. We have thus been inundated with stories concerning our reliance on technolo­ gy and the horrors that just might* occur when our beloved computers go down. Y2K is spreading fear throughout America and the world. People are withdrawing money from Chris Lambert COLUMNIST banks, religious groups from Col­ orado are flying to Jerusalem to meet God, garages and pantries all over the world are at this moment being filled with Spam and distilled water. We shouldn't be worried though; we should be hoping for the worst. Today we can look around at our fancy computers, shiny cars, remote controls, microwaves, friends, peace­ ful neighborhoods and convince our­ selves that we are civilized. But is this true? Should the Y2K bug knock out computers and strip away all of our technological luxuries for about two years, we'd find out rather quickly how civilized we truly are. How would we react if society as we know it crumbles and we had to again rely on our immediate community for entertainment, food and everything else necessary for survival? Most people can live in an apart­ ment complex or subdivision for a year and be on speaking terms with exactly one neighbor. What if we had the to trust and depend on all strangers we walk past every day? What if that weird guy from the first- floor apartment wjth the funny smell suddenly becomes the community if there w ere no butcher? W hat longer any cops or 911, fingerprints, forensic evidence, alibis, DNA test­ ing? Are we really honest law-abid­ ing people or has technology just made it too damn hard to get away with anything? A worst case Y2K scenario would be good for Americans. It would give us a new-found respect for those ancient people who had to operate as a com­ munity and get along and trust each other despite differences. W e've become sheltered, spoiled, arrogant people who spend more time playing parts in the big machine than we do interacting with each other as human beings. Two years without technolo­ gy would force us to acquire proper humility and values. After that, Bill better get those computers up and running again because movies and delivered pizzas require some level of technology. So on New Year's Eve let's all hope for the worst and maybe this Y2K disaster will give us a desperately needed technology break. Besides, television is rotting our brains and a couple years growing potatoes would do Jerry Springer some good.

UTIMC0 accountability The people of Texas will be well- served by a recent decision to broaden significantly the amount of information available to the public about private equity investments involving University of Texas Sys­ tem endowment resources. In future private equity invest­ ments, the names of principals who manage the investments will be part of the public record, as will annual rates of return on each investment. For already existing investments, we are hopeful that firms will release UT investment managers irom confidentiality agreements so that the relevant information about those investments can also be made public. The term "private equity invest­ ments" may sound arcane, but these are simply investments which, as opposed to publicly-traded equities, typically involve limited partner­ ships in transactions such as ven­ ture capital for start-up companies or corporate buyouts. Less than a tenth of the funds invested on behalf of the UT System are in pri­ vate equities. As a group, our private equity investments have been very prof­ itable, resulting in an average annu­ al rate of return of 22.9 percent over the past five years. The board of directors of the Uni­ versity of Texas Investment Man­ (UTIM CO) voted agem ent Co. unanimously the broaden to amount of information that is made public after questions were raised by the news media and legislators about confidentiality agreements related to these investments. The objection was made that without the names of the individual princi­ pals and information about each investment's annual rate of return, the public cannot assure itself that its endowment resources are being invested wisely and without con­ flicts of interest. UT System and UTIMCO officials considered that objection carefully and concluded that the policy ought to be changed. This issue had never been brought to the board's atten­ tion before, but after evaluating all the board the relevant factors, found the public interest in open government and access to informa­ tion to be compelling. Uppermost in the board's mind is meeting the highest standard of public trust. The board concluded that the new disclosures would not be detri­ mental to the investment program. If, however, a private entity should decline to enter into an investment agreement with UTIMCO because of the disclosure requirements, UTIMCO will forgo the investment. News reports also raised ques­ tions about the possibility of con­ flicts of interest. It has been alleged that conflicts arose either because some people with whom UTIMCO does business have made political contributions or because some of the investments have been with firms that also have done business with the firm of Hicks, Muse, Tate & Furst Inc., whose chairm an and CEO is UTIMCO chairman Thomas O. Hicks. UTIMCO is not aware of any con­ flicts of interest in its private equity investments. Political affiliations and donations have never been a factor in the recommendations of the UTIMCO staff or the decisions by the UTIMCO board. One of the reasons that the Board of Regents created UTIMCO in 1996 was to provide the University investment program with an independent board of investment experts, thus helping to insulate investment deci­ sions from the political arena. Space does not permit us to explain in this article the various investments that have been ques­ tioned in news reports. However, UTIMCO has prepared a detailed response that is available on the UTIMCO Web site at www.utim- co.org or by writing to UTIMCO at 210 W. 6th Street, Second Floor, Austin, TX 78701. William Cunningham Chancellor, UT System Look around In regards to Jason Riley's letter (The Texan, April 8) I want to point out a few facts that dispute his claims. Light rail does work and there are plenty of cities in this country that serve as testimony to this fact. One example is the DART (Dallas Area Rapid Transit System) in Texas, of all places. Since its debut, the DART has been scram­ bling to expand to meet demand. As far as I'm concerned, we need light rail to make this city livable again. It's people like Mr. Riley here who for some reason want to drive their way to a pollution-choked future as if it's not bad enough already. Per­ haps the reason he cannot see any alternative to the current state of things is because he has yet to pull his own head out of his own ass. At least take a look around before you make your accusations. Have a nice day. Thomas Speer UT staff The education business If the goal of affirmative action is to get more minorities into higher education institutions, then that goal could be accomplished by abolishing tuition for Texas resi­ dents a n d /o r establishing more scholarship funds. The UT System has huge financial resources at its disposal, which increase daily due to reinvestment. Instead of using them towards making education more available, it chooses to be in the "business of education." This means that the student is veiwed as a consumer, or carnival "sucker," to be fleeced of his cash. As P.T. Bar- num said, there's a sucker born every minute. Jeff Burke UT staff Gather the facts In Mr. Winter's April 7 column, "NCAA lawsuit abuses race card," he misinterpreted Judge Blackwal- ter's decision. The federal court judge's decision deliberately did not dismiss standardized testing or the SAT 1 test as biased — he just noted that the specific score of 820 produced a disproportionately high rate of "failure" among African- American students. He is, in fact, a proponent of standardized test scores as a part of eligibility criteria, but not that particular score. This decision was handed down over three weeks ago, Mr. Winter; surely that is enough time for a jour­ nalist to gather the facts of the case. Next time, please be more careful. Jennifer Nagourney Freshman Indiana University-Bloomington Kosovo question There's an old Albanian saying that goes: I f s better to die on your feet, than to be a slave on your knees. As anthropologists can tell you, the people of the Balkans are a proud, sturdy bunch. Ihe United States government offered to airlift and temporarily house 30,000 Kosovars on U.S. soil and in Guantanomo Bay. Except for a handful, most of these people turned down Uncle Sam. Similarly, European and Muslim states are willing to take in 200,000 of these refugees living in squalid condi­ tions in Albania and Macedonia, but almost all the men from the ages of 17-60 (and even some women) are staying behind to launch a mas­ sive counter offensive to take back their homeland. Armed with weapons from Bosnia, Albania and Turkey, and energized with recruits from the all over the world, the KLA is readying itself to launch a protracted guerilla war in this region. has been An organization here in the Unit­ ed States calling itself Motherland Calling funneling weapons and money back to Koso­ va since the crackdow ns began back in 1989. Intelligence sources call this group the political arm of the KLA, much like how the Sinn Fein represented, recruited and funded for the IRA. With all this happening on the ground, is there still a need for ground-troops? The Kosovars, tired of being on-look- ers, are asking NATO for a simple favor: remove the weapons em bar­ go on the region, give them heavy armaments and let them defend themselves. They argue that the bombings have created a million refugees, and a million more await their fate at the hands of Serb para­ military forces. These attacks man­ aged to only inflame the situation and turned a guerilla war into a humanitarian nightmare. The latest news coming out of Kosova is that those left behind are now being used as hum an shields around tanks and barracks so that NATO aircrafts do not target these Serb positions. Forcing the Kosovars to stay is also a ploy by Belgrade to make us think that the ethnic cleansing has seized and so the bombings should stop. Running low on fuel and supplies from Bel­ grade, the 60,000 armed Serbians occupying Kosova are now grow ­ ing weary of this conflict. As for the underdogs in this whole mess, the Kosovars have won some significant symbolic bat­ tles in the eyes of the international community. Has anyone noticed how the media has stopped calling them ethnic Albanians, and instead has started referring to them as the Kosovars? This comes just days after Clinton, in a news conference, called the region by its Albanian name, Kosova, instead of Kosovo, as it is known in Serbo-Croatian. This is a validation for the Koso­ vars, because it shows that the movers and shakers out there are beginning to recognize their right to self-determination, whether that meant independence or virtual autonomy. Zafar S. Choudhury Microbiology senior Bush: Compassion or B S ? I am very upst that Gov. George W. Bush is pandering to religious conservatives with his opposition to a proposed hate-crimes bill and adoptions by gay men and women. Bush spokeswoman Karen Hughes said "Bush wants children adopt­ ed by married men and women, and he opposes special rights based upon sexual orientation." Gov. Bush, gay adults can make excellent parents. V irtually all studies, excluding misinformation put out by w acko right-w ing groups, attest to this fact. Equal civil rights for gay people are just that: equal rights, not spe­ cial rights. Gov. Bush, when you can buy into such a phoney slogan as "special rights," I question any validity of other slogans you embrace, such as "compassionate conservatism." I am an openly gay father of I would prefer to three children. keep my sexuality private, but I cannot justify doing so while living in a society that continues to vilify sexual minorities. With three college tuitions to pay, I'm not interested in adopting more children. M ost school-aged kids perceived to be gay, though, are tormented in our society, both at home and in school. The ones who survive often have experi­ ences they can use to become far better parents than their peers. Gov. Bush, I would be happy to introduce you to a few people who have devoted their lives to under­ standing the roots of anti-gay bias, the nature of sexuality, and the suc­ cesses and failures of gay people as parents. Think about that offer. Are you simply a politician or are you interested in improving our society?

Berg received the $12,000 fellow­ sh ip w ith the F ria r C en te n n ia l Teaching Fellowship Award, which the UT Friar Society gives to an out­ standing professor who goes above and beyond n orm al p ro fesso rial duties and provides dedication to the University outside of the class­ room. "As a film professor ... this is the Academy Award for teaching at the University of Texas at Austin. I am very humble to be awarded," Berg said. Toward the end of Berg's class, several faculty members, his w ife and students all burst into his class­ room and surprised him with the announcement. Thursday was also Berg's birthday. The award will be formally pre­ sented in a ceremony this Saturday. D avid Z eped a, an RTF sen io r, said he thought the class disruption was for Berg's birthday. He didn't know until after the announcement that Berg had won the award. "I w as re a lly w a itin g for the mariachis and guitars," he said. Z ep ed a ad d ed th a t B erg is an amazing teacher. "H e is always willing to help you out, and he is never too busy," he said. Berg summed up how much his stu d en ts m ean to him w ith tw o fam ou s m ovie lines — from Jerry M aguire, "You com plete m e," and from As Good As It Gets, "You make me want to be a better man." "O ne of the things I realized is how much I get out of teaching," Berg said. "It's very much like in a good relationship: you get just as much out of it as the other person. They help me in many ways they will probably never know." Jerem y Lott, an RTF junior and one of Berg's students, said he took the class because he knew w hat a great professor Berg was. "It is long overdue; he is definite­ ly the best p ro fe sso r h ere," Lott said. "H e is very encouraging — he invests not only in his teaching, but you as a person." Some of Berg's other awards are the 1999 Texas Excellence Teaching Award in the College of Communi­ cation, the 1998 Dads' Association C en ten n ial T e a ch in g F ello w sh ip and the 1996 in d u ctio n in to the Academy of D istinguished Teach ers.

Susan Dirks, senior ad m in istra­ tive associate in the Department of Radio-Televsion-Film, said Berg is a great person and professor.

Wideout Harper arrested for car theft ■ W A SH IN G TO N — Alvin H arper, a form er w ide receiver w ith the W ashington Redskins, w as charged Thursday w ith two counts of auto theft. M aryland State Police say the arrest of Harper, 31, resulted from an investigation of vehicles w ith false identification num bers from the District of Columbia. Stolen vehicles w ere recovered from several locations in M ontgom ery and Prince G eorge's counties, said Pete Piringer, a state police spokesm an. A m ong vehicles recovered w ere a 1997 M ercedes Benz S 600, valued at $130,000, and a 1995 M ercedes Benz convertible, val­ u ed at $70,000. Both vehicles w ere in H arp er's possession and h a d fra u d u le n t titles, Piringer said. H arper m ay have purchased from a d ista n t the vehicles the acquaintance and u n d e r prem ise the sales were legitimate, Piringer said. But the sales were at substantially reduced prices, which should have raised H arp ­ e r's suspicions, he said. Also a former Dallas Cowboy, H arper played for the Redskins last season but w as cut Dec. 1 after com plaining about playing time. He attended camp last year w ith the New Orleans Saints but w as cut before the start of the sea­ son. H arper had also played for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers after help­ ing the Cowboys win tw o Super Bowls. But an injury sidelined the star during his stint w ith the Buccaneers and he failed to ever regain his form. — C om piled b y S c o tt G odley a n d fro m A s s o c ia te d P ress re p o rts FRIDAY ■ BASEBALL The No '3 Longhorns host No. 10 Baylor at D¡sch-Falk Field at 6 p.m. SATURDAY ■ SOFTBALL The Longhorns host Texas A&M at McCombs Field at 2 p.m. SUNDAY ■ WOMEN'S TENNIS: The Longhorns host Vanderbilt at Pemck-Alison Tennis Center at noon. ■ SOFTBALL The Longhorns host Geor­ gia Southern at McCombs Field in a dou­ ble header beginning at noon.

Rodriguez hammers solo shot to lift Cubs 2-1 Associated Press HOUSTON — Sammy Sosa isn't hitting hom e runs so far. Even so, the Chicago Cubs are getting by just fine. Sosa rem ained hom erless for the season and l-for-10 overall, but H enry Rodriguez and Jose H ern and ez hit solo hom ers and the Chicago Cubs got a lucky bounce to beat the H ouston Astros 2-1 T hursday night. "T hat's w hy w e're the C ubs," M ark Grace said. "A lot of people seem to think w e're the Sosas. I can understand how they do. "But Sam m y's going to hit four times and the rest of us are going to hit 23 or 24 tim es and Sammy doesn't pitch. Sammy d id n 't do a w hole lot, b ut we still w on tw o of three." Jon Lieber (1-0) w on his first start for the Cubs. H e allow ed five hits in eight innings, striking out six and w alking none. "We lived and died by the hom e run last year," Cubs m anager Jim Riggleman said. "Tonight was a good example, but we had another part of o u r formula, good starting pitching." Rod Beck got a save in his first appear­ ance of the season — w ith some help from the artificial turf. With tw o outs in the ninth and Jeff Bag- well on first base, Carl Everett hit a ground- rule double that bounced over the left-field fence. H ad the ball stayed in play, Bagwell w ould have h a d a chance to score. Instead, Bagwell h ad to stop at third, and Beck got Richard Hidalgo on a gam e-end­ ing grounder. "I d o n 't know if they are sm art enough to be in the right places or lucky," Astros m an­ ager Larry D ierker said. "But they had some good shifts on to where they w ere in the right spots at the right time. "The ball bounced over the fence; that kept us from tying the game," he said. Sosa, who hit three homers last season off Jose Lima (0-1), flied out in the first and walked in the third. He took a called third strike to end the fifth inning and fouled out to third basem an Ken Caminiti in the eighth. Houston's Bill Spiers slides into second during the Cubs' 2-1 win. ASSOCIATED PRESS Texas seeks revenge on BU Robby Nisenfeld Daily Texan Staff O ne year, three weeks and four days ago, the 1998 Texas baseball season unofficially came to an end. For all intensive purposes, w hen Bay­ lor b attered the L onghorns 20-4 at Disch-Falk Field on March 15 of last sea­ son, the H orns were through. Sure Texas still lim ped through 33 m ore games, but the 0-5 conference start that resulted from the blow out was a confidence killer that led to a do w n ­ w ard spiral of losses and a 23-32-1 record. The beating was so thorough that the H orns' m inds are still a little hazy w hen it comes to recalling the incident. "It w as such a bad w eekend for every­ one involved on our team," junior Scott D unn said of the 20-4 drubbing and two losses prior to that. "1 had no recollec­ tion that that was the final score. It's just som ething I try to block out and move on from. "We all rem em ber the sw eep and how m uch it really set us back last year. W hat little m om entum we m ight have had going into conference w as pretty m uch stom ped on right there by them." Baylor may have bruised, battered and broken the H orns last season, but this year they're back. Two-thirds of the w ay through the season, Texas boasts a 25-13 record and holds a No. 13 national ranking. The H orns sit in third place in the Big 12 Conference at 11-4, right behind first place Baylor (31-6 overall, ,13-2 Big 12) and Texas A&M. Friday at the Disch, the No. 10 Bears come a calling, and the H orns will be waiting. BASEBALL/Page 8 Ernie Els fights bis way out of a creek at the Masters Thursday.

Commissioner Bud Selig NL presi­ dent Len Coleman and A1 Downing who surrendered the historic homer, were among the many on hand to honor Aaron during a 45-minute cere­ mony prior to the Braves' game against the Philadelphia Phillies. "You know 25 years ag o ... when I hit that home run to beat the Babe's record, it was truly one of the most remarkable evenings that I have ever had in base­ ball," Aaron said following a two- minute standing ovation from the big crowd at 50,000-seat Turner Field. "But tonight tops it all," said Aaron, now 65 and a Braves senior vice presi­ dent. "This is truly a wonderful day for me." The tribute has helped Aaron, who fimshed with 755 home runs, forget his somewhat bittersweet memories of the chase to beat Ruth. As he closed in on the record, Aaron received hundreds of thousands of parcels of mail, many filled with hate because there were people who did not like the idea that a black man from Mobile, Ala., was going to pass Ruth. Adding to the hurt was the fact that then-commissioner Bowie Kuhn was not even at Atlanta-Fulton County Sta­ dium on the night when Aaron broke the record. Kuhn was at a dinner in Cleveland and sent one of his assistants, Monte Irvin, in his place. "If you would have asked me 15 years ago, you would have found a much angrier person, but time has a way of healing tilings," he said during news conference, seated between his wife, Billye, and Selig. . "I've seen him a few times since then," he said of Kuhn, "but have not talked to him about that." Selig Braves chairman of the board Bill Bartholomay and Tom Johnson, chairman and CEO of Cable News Net­ work, each spoke glowingly of Aaron. Hall of Famers Lou Brock, Frank Robin­ son and Phil Niekro also took part in the ceremonies. Aaron was honored with video trib­ utes and two songs performed by Kenny Rogers — "The Greatest" and "Heroes." Finally, there was the unveiling of the Hank Aaron Award, which was announced in February. It will go to the best hitter in each league at the end of the season. 'To have an award to be named in perpetuity after you for the rest of your life tells me that no matter what hap­ pens to me, my grandchildren and my great-grandchildren will be able to say that their father had an award named in his honor," he said. Selig in a news conference earlier, presented tire award — a handsome wooden plaque with an engraved silver bat atop home plate — to Aaron, as the first winner. "Why so long? That's a tough ques­ tion to answer," Selig said. "But 1 think this is the appropriate time. It's some­ thing that should have happened long ago. Like a lot of things in life, I wish it had been a happier experience." Aaron said he had wished his march to surpass Ruth had been similar to the chase shared last season by Mark McG­ wire and Sammy Sosa as both sur­ passed the single-season mark of 61 home runs by Roger Maris. McGwire finished with 70 and Sosa with 66. "I didn't have that opportunity and I often thought that if I only had just a lit­ tle bit of that it would have made me feel a whole lot different," Aaron said. The celebration was the first that will take place during the regular season at major league parks to celebrate Aaron's feat. Aaron began his major league career in 1953 and spent his entire 23 years in either Milwaukee or Atlanta, breaking the revered Ruth's record of 714 career home runs on April 8,1974. It came off Downing of the Los Ange­ les Dodgers in the fourth inning with the Braves trailing 4-1 and two runners on base. The ball sailed over the left-center field fence at Atlanta-Fulton County Sta­ dium, just across tire street from the cur­ rent stadium, as the crowd of 53,775 roared. It was caught in the bullpen by Braves reliever Tom House at 9:07 p.m. Angels limp into AL West showdown with Rangers 44 You always want stand s the im p o rtan ce o f their "You alw ays w ant to win as head-to-head m eetings.

ASSOCIATED PRESS NFL investigating salary cap of Dallas Cowboys Associated Press com plaints NEW YO RK — The NFL is investigating from other teams that the Dallas Cow­ the boys may have violated league's salary cap rules by lock­ ing up players they have not yet signed. League spokesw om an Leslie Hammond said Thursday that the league was looking into allegations involving center Mark Stepnoski, wide receiver Raghib Ismail and linebacker Quentin Coryatt. She had no further comment. Last month, it was reported that the Cowboys had come to terms on multiyear contracts with the three free agents, but did not actually sign them. The New York Times reported that several teams said they recently contacted agents for the three, but in each case was told the player no longer was available. Some of the teams said they con­ ducted their own investigations and determined that an arrange­ ment had been reached between the Cowboys and the players. that At that point, according to The Times, at least several of the teams complained to the league. They told NFL officials they believed the Cowboys had reached verbal or written agreements with the players, but had not signed them to a contract to circumvent cap rules. The to explore the situation, according to team executives, union officials and agents the newspaper did not identify. then began league "It's about time," said Bob Fer­ guson, the player personnel direc­ tor of the Arizona Cardinals. "Some teams in this league have been doing tilings a long time — not Dallas — that have made it difficult for those of us that have had to operate by die rules. It's an uneven playing field, and it hurts them and it hurts us." The league offers a $1 million reward for anyone who can pro­ duce proof that a team has violated the cap rules. If found guilty, the Cowboys could be fined millions of dollars and be barred, at least temporarily, from using the players involved. At least two of the teams that complained believe the Cowboys may have hidden a deal with the three players because Dallas did not have room to sign them but wanted to keep other teams from getting them. The NFL urges teams to sign a player to a contract as soon as possi­ ble after an agreement has been reached. Once the signatures are on the contract, the agreement must be submitted to the league office within 24 hours and every other team is then made aware of the signing. Rich Dalrym ple, a Cow boys' spokesman, when asked about the published report, told The Associ­ ated Press: "It's the first I've heard of it." Baseball Continued from page 7 "I wouldn't call it make or break, but I would call it a very important series," Dunn said of the weekend set that will shift to Waco for the final two games of the series on Sat­ urday and Sunday. "They're in first place in the conference and we're just a couple games back. If we can win some ballgames this weekend, we'll be right up there at the top and we won't have to worry about other teams helping us out." Baylor heads into the series com­ ing off a Tuesday win over No. 6 Rice and are winners of 13 in a row and 29 of its last 31 games. The Bears have been the class of the Big 12, sweeping No. 20 Texas Tech and taking two of three from No. 25 Oklahoma State and an improving Missouri team. "Baylor appears at this point in time to be the most consistant team in the conference and maybe the best team in the conference," Texas head coach Augie Garrido said. "We appear to be a first division team that has the opportunity to establish itself as the first place team." If the Horns are going to establish themselves in the opening game of the series, Dunn (8-2) will have to establish him self on the mound. With Baylor junior ace Jason Jen­ nings on the hill, Dunn, who is fourth in the country in wins, may have to pitch his best game of the year just to keep the Horns close. Jennings has been brilliant for the Bears. The righty has yet to lose at 7- 0 and showcases a 2.20 ERA, which in college ball means he's either sold his soul to the devil or he's a hell of a pitcher. Through 77 2 /3 innings, he's bean nearly untouchable, hold­ ing opposing hitters to a .168 aver­ age and striking out 97 batters while walking only 28. "H e's a quality Division I pitcher," Dunn said of Friday counterpart. "H e's had a lot of success in his career. For us to beat him, I'm going to have to hold them to very little because he's probably not going to give up a whole lot."

The Cubs st. also hit Nos. 50 and 51 off Lima , Wrigley Field on Aug. 23 — aft< that game, there were publishe reports questioning whether Lirr grooved a pitch for Sosa, and pla; ers denied the allegation. Last year, Sosa did not hom< until his fourth game. He had on one after 10 games. Lima led the Astros with 34 hon runs allowed last season and w. fourth in the NL. It didn't take him lor to get started on his 1999 total, either. Rodriguez and Hernandez h solo home runs in the second innin both over the left-field fence. Ricky Gutierrez doubled to sta the third for Houston. He reache third on a perfectly placed sacrifii bunt by Lima and scored on groundout by Craig Biggio. That was all the Astros could g off Lieber. "I was up a.little at times but definitely felt in control," Lieb said. "I hit my spots and that's tl name of the game. I was just co centrating on their lineup and tr ing to keep the game close."

Mel Míreles, senior year 2000 analyst for th e DIR, sa id a c q u irin g th e n e c e ssa ry paperwork from state agencies took some time, but overall the agencies have cooper­ ated fairly well. "G lo b a lly th e y 'v e re a lly all com e together here," Míreles said. Com pared to other states, Texas sets a good example, he said, adding that DIR representatives have spoken in other parts of the nation about their efforts. "W e're well prepared w hen you bench­ mark against other states, w hich is good news," Míreles said. He said there h a v e n 't been any m ajor problems w ith compliance issues, adding that fu n d in g has p ro v o k ed agencies to make the necessary efforts. "F u n d in g h as a m ajor role in g ettin g things done, and having the money to make the change is important," Míreles said. Most state agencies rely on the Legisla­ tu re to g ra n t access to fu n d s for Y2K spending. When granting money, Míreles said the Legislature evaluates an agency's reports on th e ir Y2K c o m p lia n c e p ro g r e s s to determine the need for the funds. "If they d o n 't show diligence w orking toward the year 2000, they do n 't get fund­ ing," Míreles said. "There have been some stragglers, but w e've w hipped them into shape." He a d d e d th a t th e L e g is la tu re h a s worked closely with the DIR to make sure agencies can offer their services at the turn of the century. About half of the 203 agencies under the DIR are com pliant, M ireles said, adding that most of the m issio n 's critical func­ tions, such as M edicaid, child su p p o rt, welfare, drivers licenses and criminal his­ tory files, will be ready by May. "Overall the process that we have set in place has been very effective," Mireles said. "The reason it's effective is the sponsorship that we have from the Legislature." G len C a s tle b u ry , d ire c to r of p u b lic information for the Texas D epartm ent of C rim inal Justice, said the DIR deem ed the TDCJ co m p lia n t ab out tw o m o n th s ago. "E verything w e've done w e've had to pass the scrutiny of DIR," Castlebury said. "W e were on DIR risk list at first for, if nothing else, the nature of our mission." The TDCJ com puter system accounts for about 1 million records for both past and present inmates. At any one time, there are 40,000 inmates 64 We assure the citizens of Texas the prison doors will not roll open New Year’s Day.” — Glen Castleberry, tBrector of public Information ton the Texts Department ot Criminal Justice in the system, 30,000 enter and 30,000 leave each year, with 180,(XX) on parole. C astlebury said the TDCJ has alread y a d d re s s e d s e c u rity m a tte rs a sso c ia te d w ith the sta te p riso n sy stem to e n su re public safety on Jan. 1, 2000. The TDCJ has e v a lu a te d v a rio u s fea­ tures of the p rison system , such as elec­ tronically controlled doors, record keep­ ing and small system s such as m icrowaves in the em ployees' break room. "W e a ssu re th e c itizen s of Texas th e prison doors will not roll open N ew Year's Day," Castlebury said. He said an appropriation for m ore than $10 million from the Legislature six years ago triggered a re-engineering process in the TDCJ which integrated com puter sys­ tems of three adu lt criminal justice agen­ cies. The agencies — the Texas D e p a rt­ m ent of Corrections, A dult Probation sys­ tem and the Board of Pardons and Paroles — were overseen by TDCJ. D uring the re-en gineering , TDCJ also addressed the Y2K bug. This facilitated Y2K com pliance efforts b e c a u s e th e r e w e re e x p e r ts a lr e a d y im m ersed in the system w ho knew exact­ ly w here to fix the problem , C astlebury said. "It w as a beautiful fit and it m ade our lives a lot easier," he said. C a s tle b u ry a d d e d th a t m u c h of th e p riso n system contains new equipm en t.

"We have already m ade a trem endous, H erculean effort, an d w e are co n fid en t now that we have the problem w hipped," Castlebury said. A lth o u g h TDCJ o ffic ia ls b e lie v e the departm ent is Y2K compliant, Castlebury sa id c o m p u te r e x p e rts w ill a lw a y s be watching for potential problems.

The newspaper quoted informed sources, who said agents believe the three may have been killed in San A ntonio and then taken 120 miles west to a hidden burial site on a 5,000-acre ranch near the tiny Real County town of Camp Wood. A three-day search of the ranch last w eekend ap p a ren tly turned up nothing, d esp ite the work of three dozen FBI and IRS agents using metal detectors, dogs, a bor­ rowed backhoe and heat-sensitive equipment. The ranch o w n e r is u nd e r no suspicion, but the E x p ress-N ew s quoted sources who say investiga­ tors are focusing on an Austin man who leased the p r o p e r ty at the time. FBI spokesman Darren Holmes in San Antonio w ould not c o m ­ ment on w hat a u th o ritie s think happened to the O 'H a irs or any federal interest in the leaseholder He also declined to talk about the weekend effort in Camp Wood. Mrs. O 'H air, her son Jon Garth Murray and daughter Robin Mur­ ray O Hair disappeared along with $500,000 in gold coins after spend­ ing a month in San Antonio. Mrs. O'H air gained fame in the 1960s w h e n sh e h e l p e d w a g e a Supreme Court fight that removed the Bible and prayer from public schools. She later tried to remove the p h r a s e " I n G o d W e T r u s t " fro m U .S . c u r r e n c y an d sto p potential jurors from say in g "so help me God." The family last was heard from Sept. 29, 1995, w hen Jo n M urray spoke to atheist officials in Austin by cell phone. Two men linked to the O'Hairs have been arrested, although nei­ th er is ch a rg e d with an o ffe n s e related to their disappearance or to the death of another victim in the case, Danny Fry of Florida. David R. Waters, 52, of Austin, and G a r y P. K a rr, 50, o f N o v i, M ich., w ere charged w ith b ein g felons in possession of firearms or ammunition. Both have extensive criminal records, including violent crimes. Fry was dumped by a riverbank east of Dallas on Oct. 2, 1995, after his head and hands had been sev­ ered. He was identified in January through genetic testing. Patrick Ganne, an Austin lawyer r e p r e s e n t i n g W a te r s , said he waived a detention hearing set for today because he was certain his client would not be granted bond. " I t h o u g h t it w a s p o i n t l e s s ," Ganne said of the hearing. Waters is set for arraignment April 20, but G a n n e said he m a y w a iv e that appearance as well. G a n n e said W a te r s re m a in s "baffled'' that an y o n e thinks he h a d a n y t h in g to do w it h the O 'H a ir disappearance or the Fry case. O ' H a i r ' s s u r v iv i n g so n , Bill Murray, said federal officials have not told him anything about what they suspect happened to his fami­ ly members. But M urray said he fears they may have suffered the same grue­ some fate as Fry, whose head and hands were never recovered. " It's just a gut feeling. I figure th e y w o u ld try to c o v e r th eir tracks like they did with Fry, try to b u ry d ifferent parts in d ifferent places," Murray said. Gun clubs want chance to take aim at Hitler BOSTON — A state law that bars some shooting enthusiasts from using h um an im ages for ta r g e t p r a c tic e is b e in g c h a l ­ lenged by gun-rights advocates w ho want to riddle photos of Adolf Hitler with bullets. "W hy w ouldn 't you want to e n c o u r a g e p e o p le to sh o o t at s o m e b o d y t h a t ? " said li k e Stephen Halbrook, an attorney for gun owners, who argued in federal court W ed n e sd ay that th e law v i o l a t e s f r e e d o m of speech. The law , w h ic h to o k e f f e c t last fall, was written to prevent p eople from practicin g s h o o t­ ing humans. It is believed to be the only one of its kind in the nation. It prohibits certain gun clubs from shooting at targets depict^ in g " h u m a n f i g u r e s , h u m a n effigies, h um an silh o u e ttes or i m a g e s . " L aw a n y h u m a n a re e n f o r c e m e n t exempted. o f f f i c e r s The law only applies to gun c lu b s and ta rg e t ra n g e s with n e w s t a t e l i c e n s e s th a t g iv e them permission to own "large capacity" automatic or semiau- 44 Why wouldn’t you want to encourage people to shoot at some­ body like that?” — Stephen Halbrook, attorney lor Massachusetts gun owners tomatic weapons. Of the 300 or so gun clubs in Massachusetts, none is believed to have applied for that license, said Michael Yacino, executive d i r e c t o r o f th e G u n O w n e r s Action League, the lead plain­ tiff in the lawsuit. Although that makes the law m o o t, at le a s t for n o w , H a l ­ brook said using Hitler's image for target practice is a form of e x p r e s s i o n p r o t e c t e d by th e Constitution. H i t l e r h a s b e e n a p o p u l a r shooting target for decades. His image became even more popu­ la r at M a s s a c h u s e t t s t a r g e t ranges in November after a gun pu blicatio n called the O utdoor M e s s a g e p u b lish e d a p h o to ­ graph of H itler su perim po sed on a b u ll's-ey e target with the words "N ever Again." On th e r e v e r s e s id e w e r e new spap er reprints from 1938 d e s c r ib i n g K r is t a ll n a c h t , the night N azis ransacked Jew ish businesses and synagogues. S t a te p r o s e c u t o r s said gun o w n e rs w h o w an t to p ra c tice shooting at Hitler or som eone e l s e a re f r e e to do so at the many clubs that don't have the l i c e n s e s e m i a u t o m a t i c weapons. f o r Firing at pictures or silh o u ­ e t t e s is " p e r m i t t i n g y o u to p r a c t i c e s h o o t i n g at h u m a n beings," said Edward J. DeAn- gelo, an assistant attorney gen ­ eral. The state is well within its p o w er to d is c o u r a g e that, he said. The plaintiffs say that notion is ridiculous. " W e m u s tn 't take th in gs so s e r i o u s l y th a t w e t h i n k . t h a t somebody's going to shoot at a picture of a human im age and t h e n go o n a r a m p a g e and shoot hum ans," Halbrook said.
