Steinem says women must 
control reproductive rights

By Verena Isensee
Daily Texan Staff

To most people, Gloria Steinem is as synonymous with 
the feminist movement as Jesse Jackson is with civil rights.
Steinem has been a crusader of women's rights since the 
1960s. In the early 1970s, she co-founded Ms. magazine to 
provide a forum for women's issues. In 1992, she authored 
the best-selling book Revolution from Within: A Book o f Self- 
Esteem.

Speaking to a sold-out crowd Wednesday, the well- 
known author and activist shared her vision for the future 
of the feminist movement during a lecture to students, fac­
ulty and Austin residents in the LBJ Auditorium. Steinem 
was this year's guest lecturer for the Student Endowed 
Centennial Lectureship.

Steinem discussed the difficult decision many women 
feel forced to make today of choosing between a family and 
a career, but Steinem said it is not a matter of selecting one 
at the expense of the other, but rather reforming the entire 
system.

“Hold out for the right to have a workplace that aiiows 
both men and women to have children there. Hold out for 
a partner w ho will help with the children," she said. "1 lave 
higher standards. Get mad. Make change."

Steinem argued, however, that can only be done by over­
turning "the patriarchal and vertical hierarchy." Women 
must rebel against people's desire to control their repro­
ductive rights, she said.

"We've been lied to about our sexuality. Human sexuali­
ty has always been a way to procreate, but also a way to 
communicate ... but [the ultra-right wing] oppose any abil­
ity to separate sexuality from reproduction," Steinem said.
Wednesday afternoon, Steinem also held a 40 minute 
question-and-answer session in the Texas Union Ballroom. 
Women w ho attended said they hoped she could offer solu­
tions to the family-or-career question.

"Basically, I'm trying to figure out if I will die a bitter, old 
woman because I raised a family and never went for my 
goals," said Andrea Downing, a Plan II junior. "O r two,

After those hours, venues would need

music could not exceed 70 decibels,

State deficit 
may limit 
grant program

By M ig u e l L is c a n o
D aily Texan S t a f f

Texas' largest student grant program might not receive 

extra funding if a $5 billion state deficit becomes reality.

A proposed $10 million increase to the TEXAS Grant 
Program would double the amount available to college 
students show ing financial need, but the ultimate effect of 
the state bu dget deficit on the p ro g ram 's future will not 
be known until the 2003 Legislature approves a budget.

The renew able grant is given to high school graduates 
who finish with a recommended or advanced curriculum

"There was $10 million of additional funding for that 
program that's contingent," said Mike Reissig, director of 
fiscal m an ag em ent for the Texas Com ptroller of Public 
Accounts. "F o r this biennium, if we don't come in over 
estimate, then there w on't be funding for that particular 
$10 million for TE X A S Grants."

Reissig also said it is not yet know n what impact the 
possible deficit would have on grant funding for the next 
biennium beg inn in g Sept. 1, 2003.

"The next Legislature will just have to write the budget

Church leaders express regret
VATICAN CITY — After an extraordinary 
meeting sparked by a sex abuse scandal, 
American Roman Catholic leaders agreed 
Wednesday to make it easier to remove 
priests guilty of sexually abusing minors — 
but they stopped short of a zero-tolerance pol­
icy to dismiss all abusive priests.

The American church leaders said they 

would recommend a special process to 
defrock any priest who has become “notori­
ous and is guilty of the serial, predatory sexu­
al abuse of minors.” In cases that are “not 
notorious," they would leave it up to the local 
bishop to decide if such a priest is a threat to 
children and should be defrocked.

Plea on wall leads to arrest
SAVANNAH, Ga. — A woman who says her 

trucker boyfriend beat her and held her cap­
tive for six months thanked a janitor and 
Tennessee police Wednesday for answenng a 
plea for help she scrawled on a restroom 
wall.

“I’d probably be dead now if it wasn’t for 
them," Katina Shaddix said on ABC’s Good 
Morning America.

Binford Aycock was cleaning the bathroom 
at an Interstate 75 rest stop Friday in McMinn 
County, Tenn., when he found a message 
scrawled in black marker: “Won’t let me out. 
Beating me, this is no joke!” The message 
also referred to “Cannon truck 383.”

Wildfires burning in West
BAILEY, Colo. — A l,4 0 0 a cre wildfire 
jumped from treetop to treetop Wednesday 
as gusting winds pushed it past containment 
lines and authorities evacuated this mountain 
town.

About 1,000 homes and a dozen busi­
nesses were threatened, but none had been 
burned. Crews stood ready to defend down­
town buildings, assisted by aircraft dropping 
slurry. At least four schools were closed and 
a stretch of Highway 285 was shut down. 
Sheriff’s deputies were gearing up for more 
evacuations.

Study links foods to cancer
STOCKHOLM, Sweden — Potato chips, 
french fries and other high-carbohydrate foods 
contain a substance that may cause cancer, 
according to a study released Wednesday by 
Swedish food authorities.

The substance, called acrylamide, forms in 
varying levels when carbohydrates are heated 
in a certain way, such as by frying potatoes or 
baking bread, researchers said.

Mexico’s house passes law
MEXICO CITY — The lower house passed 

Mexico’s first freedom of information law 
Wednesday, voting overwhelmingly to open up 
the government and its records to greater 
public scrutiny.

The Federal Law of Transparency and 

Access to Public Government Information now 
goes to the Mexican Senate, which is expect­
ed to easily pass it.

Supporters hailed the measure as an 

important step forward in Mexico’s developing 
democracy, making it easier for citizens to 
keep tabs on government officials.

NOISE, from 1

Currently, enforcement restrictions require police 
officers to take average decibel measurements at the 
main entrance for a minimum of five minutes. The 
amendments would eliminate that time requirement 
and allow officers to measure noise levels from any 
point on the venue's perimeter.

Stalnecker said the proposals would hurt the ' Live 

Music Capital of the W orld."

Bennett Donovan, president of the Dow ntow n 
Austin Neighborhood Association, said downtown 
residents enjoy the music scene but feel a compro­
mise is necessary.

"D A N A 's position is that a balance can be struck

between the needs of club owners and the quality of 
life of residents," Donovan said. "People who live 
downtown understand that we live side by side with 
live music, and most people who live downtown take 
advantage of that. We enjoy living by live music."

Sara Vahle, an advertising sophomore, said she 
would be upset if there were no more outdoor con­
certs.

" I prefer outdoor music because when it's nice out­
side, it's more fun," Vahle said. "I like the atmos­
phere. Clubs are too claustrophobic, but when you're 
outside, you can spread out You can mingle, and 
you're a little more comfortable."

He called other grant programs 
"w ith e rin g ," because they are 
frequently discontinued by the

L a rry Burt, director of UT 
Student Financial Services, said 
it is too early to tell how funding 
w ill be disbursed before the

Legislature meets. He said if the 
state has less money, 
it w ill 
choose what funds to limit.

"U n til the Legislature meets

they have less money to spend, 
then the likelihood is they're

"It's going to affect every state

Bush said reading to children molds them into 
great readers while giving them great memories of 
quality time adults spend with them.

"Reading is very solitary, but when you read with 
somebody, it leads to great discussions and great 
ideas," she said.

Mary Beth Rich, a resident of Spring, said Bush's

speech inspired her to read more to her 4-year-old 
grandson.

"It has encouraged me to read to my grandson 
again," she said. " A lot of times, I don't have the 
patience."

Also in attendance were former President George

W A SH IN G TO N — Ru Paster 
wants his good name back. Falsely 
accused of date rape, he also wants to 
collect $450,OCX) from university offi­
cials who released details of the alle­
gation to a potential employer.

The Supreme Court heard Paster's 
story Wednesday and is expected to 
use it to clarify the rights of students 
or parents to enforce federal privacy 
law. The Bush administration has 
sided with Gon/.aga University, which 
admits it should not have released 
Paster's records but maintains Paster 
cannot collect the money.

"This mined his career," argued 

Paster's lawyer, Beth Brinkmann.

Paster graduated from the Spokane, 
Wash., school in 1994 but could not get 
the teaching job he wanted. University 
officials told him thev could not give 
him a character recommendation he 
needed for a teaching certificate 
because of allegations that he stalked 
and assaulted a fellow student.

The school passed the allegations 
on to state authorities in Washington, 
where Paster otherwise could have

The rape allegations came to the 
school from a source other than the 
alleged victim, who has denied them.
Paster sued, charging that sharing 
the allegations without his consent 
violated 
the Family Educational 
Rights and Privacy Act.

The 1974 federal law gives parents 
and adult students such as Paster veto 
power over release of school records, 
and denies federal funding to schools 
that have a "policy or practice" of 
releasing information to unauthorized 
outsiders. It applies to any school, 
from kindergarten through graduate 
school, that receives federal money.

A jury ordered the Jesuit college to 
pay Paster $1.1 million for defamation 
and other claims, including violations 
of the federal act. He has collected 
about $600,000 for claims not connect­
ed to the federal law, and will be able 
to collect the total balance if he wins at 
the Supreme Court.

Paster attended Wednesday's argu­
ment, but did not comment afterward. 
Now in his early 30s, he still wants to 
teach and has not decided on another 
career, his lawyer said.

The issue for the Supreme Court is 
whether Paster can sue to enforce the 
privacy law. The university and the 
Bush administration argued that 
Congress never intended to give indi­
viduals that right, which they claim 
would clog the courts with petty law­
suits.

The wording of the law makes the 
secretary of education responsible for

enforcement, lawyer John G. Roberts 
Jr. argued for Gonzaga.

"It says 'FERPA is your problem.' 
There's no suggestion that private 
[complaints] would be dealt with in 
court," Roberts told the court.

Paster's lawyer countered that 
other courts have upheld an individ­
ual's right to sue under the law, and 
there has been no flood of lawsuits 
during the more than 25 years it has, 
been on the books.

"This is a paradigm example of 
what [Congress was] worried about," 
Brinkmann argued. "Gossip, things 
that are unsubstantiated that could 
ruin someone's career."

Several justices seemed to disagree.
"It seems to me just a statute [gov­
erning] when federal money is going 
to be given to a school, and the reme­
dy is the withholding of funds," said 
Justice Sandra Day O'Connor. "I don't 
see how you can extrapolate from that 
a private right," to sue.

The federal law divides student 
information into two broad categories: 
directory information such as name 
and address, and everything else.

The second category includes race, 
religion, grades, courses taken, atten­
dance and disciplinary actions. This is 
restricted information, generally avail­
able only if a student allows access.

Congress has carved out excep­
tions, including one allowing parental 
notification if a student is disciplined 
for alcohol use.

Shot in Church standoff Cardinals

By The Associated Press

com pound w ere 

BETHLEHEM, West Bank — Two 
Palestinians inside the Church of the 
shot 
N ativity 
Wednesday and one of them died as 
Israeli and Palestinian negotiators 
gathered next door for a second round 
of talks to end the standoff at one of 
Christianity's holiest sites.

In Washington, Secretary of State 
Colin Powell told Congress he had no 
evidence of an Israeli m assacre of 
Palestinians at the Jenin refugee camp 
on the West Bank. Powell has sought to 
mend deep divisions betw een Israel 
and the United Nations over the com­
position of a U.N. team dispatched to 
investigate the actions of Israeli troops 
in the camp, where Palestinians claim 
there was a massacre.

"Clearly, innocent lives may well 
have been lost," Powell testified. But, 
he said, "I have no evidence of mass 
graves. I see no evidence that would 
support a massacre took place."

U.N. Secretary-General Kofi Annan 
has ordered the team to arrive in the 
Middle East by Saturday. But Israel has 
balked, saying it wants the mission to 
include people with military and anti­
terrorism experience.

The trouble at the church, built over 
a grotto where C hristian tradition 
holds Jesus was bom , began about 
dawn, when a Palestinian w as shot and 
seriously wounded by an Israeli sniper. 
The Palestinian was standing by a win­
dow inside the church, the army and 
Palestinian witnesses said. He was 
armed, according to the Israeli army, 
and was evacuated to a Jerusalem hos­
pital.

A few hours later, tw o Palestinians 
surrendered, walking out of the church 
with hands up and turning themselves 
over to Israeli soldiers. The two men 
were wearing civilian clothes but were 
Palestinian police, according 
to a 
Palestinian journalist w ho recognized 
them. The two men said they were ill.

The Palestinian who died was hit in 
shooting that em pted about 5 p.m., as 
the Israeli and Palestinian delegations 
were arriving to start the second day of 
negotiations at the peace center next to 
the church.

Afterward, one of the Palestinian 
negotiators and a priest em erged from 
the church, carrying a badly wounded 
man on a stretcher. At one point, the 
bloodied man fell to the ground. He 
was taken to a Jerusalem hospital, but 
died a short time later, the hospital said.
A/ter the shootout, Israeli soldiers 
briefly detained five journalists, includ­
ing an Associated Press photographer,

About 200 armed Palestinians — 
with several dozen others — have been 
holed up inside the church since April

removal procedure

By The A sso cia ted Press

VATICAN CITY — A fter an 
extraordinary meeting sparked by a 
sex abuse scandal, Am erican Roman 
Catholic leaders agreed Wednesday 
to make it easier to remove priests 
guilty of sexually abusing minors — 
but thev stopped short of a zero-tol­
erance policy to d ism iss all abusive 
priests.

The Am erican church leaders said 
they would recomm end a special 
process to defrock anv priest who has 
becom e "notorious and is guilty of 
the serial, predatory sexual abuse of 
m inors." In c ases that are "not notori­
o u s," thev would leave it u p to the 
local bishop to decide it such a priest 
is a threat to children and should be 
defrocked.

The statement came at the end of 
two days of talks between Am erican 
top bishop s with 
cardinals and 
Vatican officials aiming to stem the 
sex abuse scandal plaguing the U.S. 
church. The church leaders will take 
their recomm endations to a meeting 
of I S. bishops in June to draw up a 
policv on dealing with abusive 
priests.

But the final statement was less 
than the blanket order for the dis­
missal < >f all abusive priests that some 
had sought.

The reference to "serial" attacks 
appeared to contradict a statement 
earlier W ednesday by C ardinal 
Theodore M cCarrick of Washington, 
D.C., who 
the 
A m erican cardinals m eeting with 
Pope John Paul II reached consensus 
on a "one-strike-you're-out" policy 
that would dism iss any priest 
involved in a future sex abuse case.

indicated 

that 

After a marathon final session that 
delayed announcem ent of the final 
statement by two hours, four church 
officials appeared at a press briefing. 
But only one, McCarrick, leads a U.S. 
archdiocese. Alsc > on the panel were 
U.S. bishops' head Wilton Gregory; 
Cardinal jam es Francis Stafford, an 
American w ho is president of the 
Pontifical Council tor the I aity o t the

Vatican; and Vatican spokesm an 
Joaquin Navarro-Vails.

"There is a growing consensus cer­
tainly am ong the faithful, am ong the 
bishops, that it is too great a risk to 
assign a priest w ho has abused a 
child to another ministry," Gregory 
told reporters.

The group, as expected, reaffirmed 
priestly celibacy, another issue that 
has troubled the Am erican church

"A ttention was draw n to the fact 
that almost all the cases involv'd 
adolescents and therefore were not 
cases of true pedophilia," the cardi­
nals' statem ent said. 'Togeth er with 
the fact that a link betw een celibacy 
and pedophilia cannot be scientifical­
ly m aintained, the m eeting reaf­
firmed the value of priestly celibacy 
as a gift of God to the church.

Many victims' advocates in the 
United States said the church has 
never kept its promise to crack d< >wn 
on misconduct bv the clergy and that 
this w ould be no different.

"Historically, there has been and 
there remains a huge gap betw een 
what bishops say and what bishops 
do," said Barbara Blaine o f Chicago, 
founder of the Survivors Netw ork of 
those A bused by Priests. 
"T h eir 
promises sound good, but their per­
form ance is lacking."

The cardinals' statement said the 
full bishops conference w ill be asked 
to approve a set ot national standards 
in sexual abuse cases that will be 
im posed on every bishop and dio­
cese — a major break with tradition 
in w hich bishops have great pow er in 
applying punishment.

However, the docum ent left many 
matters open to be debated by the 
bishops in June.
Sp eaking 

to CN N , Cardinal 
Francis George of Chicago said the 
new' process would allow bishops for 
the first time to attempt to rem ove a 
priest against the priest's will — 
som ething the Polish pope has been 
reluctant to back because of fears 
bishops could use the power indis­
criminately.

Grading gone wild

Grades haven’t had much meaning fo r 
a while. At their best, they can be used 
to compare different students within 
one university, though not precisely.

By Tim Haggerty
Daily Texan Guest Columnist

A m erica 's elite colleges are hanging 
their head s like unsuccessful execution­
ers these days after a recent report from 
the A m eric an A ca d em y of Arts and 
Sciences finds that grade inflation is 
alive and w'ell.

In fact, the report suggests that grade 
inflation is thriving; As are like crack- 
cocaine and America's elite colleges are 
like M anh attan's nightclubs circa 1987. 
Th e authors o f the report blam e grade 
inflation for the cult of As at Harvard — 
where about half of all grades are in the 
A range, about twice as many as 30 
years ago. That, of course, plus the fact 
that I larvard kids are "w ick ed sm aht."

In reality, there can be little d ou bt that 
grade inflation is taking place — grades 
have risen, often dramatically, in the last 
30 years, while no evidence suggests 
that m ore first-rate work is being pro­
duced. That would be textbook grade 
inflation, when you get higher grades 
for work of the same quality.

duced within it changes as well.

nouveau C.

The implications are more troubling 
when considering the logical ou tco m e 
of grade inflation over an extended p e ri­
od of time: Evervone gets As. This is 
why Yale's term for grade 
inflation, 
h o m o g e n iz a t io n " 
gra d e 
"u p w a r d 
sounds a bit lofty, but hits the problem 
on the head. Even where grading is still 
done on a curve, now it's an upside 
down spoon, not a fat man sunn ing his 
belly.

The proper response is not to strip 
professors of their ability to evaluate 
their students in the way they feel most 
meaningful. It is not to im pose strict 
curves, whereby a certain nu m ber of 
students must, mathematically, receive 
below-average grades. It is to give pro­
fessors more p o w e r to evaluate their 
students — to tell th em to stop giving 
grades altogether.

Grades hav en 't had m uch m eaning 
for a while. At their best, they can be 
used 
to c o m p a re different stu d ents 
w ithin one university, though not pre­
cisely. They cannot be used to com pare a 
Georgetown student to a Cornell stu­
dent — is a C o rnell A- equal to a 
Georgetown A-? T hat could never be the 
case, nor should it ever be — that would 
be a sign that universities have totally 
abandoned their roles as places of learn­
ing and b ecom e professional training 
grounds.

These form s w ould also replace let­

Everyone would benefit when em ploy­

of these forms, and read through the 
teachers' com m ents. They would see the 
type of student a person is; they m ight 
even begin to see the type of person a 
student is.

The side benefits are enorm ous as 
well. Students aren 't com peting against 
their colleagues for grades anym ore; 
they're com peting against themselves to 
be b etter stu d en ts. Professors see 
increased flexibility in rew arding good 
w ork and im p ro vin g p o or w ork — 
because they're not here to punish bad 
work, they're here to help make it better.
And best of all, no one has to w atch 
students flip p ast pages of m argin notes 
and end com m ents to get to the grade 
every time professors hand back an 
assignm ent. Im agine that.

Ethics Commission criticized

By Stephanie Welntraub
Daily Texan Staff

The Texas Ethics C om m ission , a w atchd og group designated to 
police Texas politicians, has inadequate pow er to achieve its pur­
pose, m em bers of a legislative com m ittee said d uring a public hear­
ing W ednesday.

T he Su n set A dvisory C om m ission , a 10-m em ber com m ittee m ade 
up of legislators and p u blic m em bers that review state agencies, 
heard com plaints about the Ethics C o m m ission 's inability to inves­
tigate political w rongdoing.

"T h e Texas Ethics C o m m ission should be the instrum ent that pro­
tects Texans from d ishonest p o litician s," said A llen G w inn, founder 
of a Web site that m onitors D allas politicians. "In stead , it's the tool 
that p rotects d ishonest p olitician s."

The E thics C om m ission, w hich has eight appointed com m ission ­
ers, w as created by a constitu tional am end m ent approved by voters 
in 1991 to enforce law s governing political cand id ates, elected offi­
cials, lobbyists, political com m ittees and som e judicial officers in 
Texas.

The Su n set C om m ission issued a report W ednesday that outlines 

su gg estio n s to im prove the Ethics C om m ission.

O fficials recom m ended that the Ethics C o m m ission should have 
the ab ility to subpoena d ocu m en ts at the b eginn in g of an investiga­
tion, to rem ove unnecessary steps in the com p lain t process, to

establish dead lines to resolve com plaints and to m ake inform ation 
m ore accessible to the public.

A ccording to the report, the Ethics C o m m issio n 's staff lacks 
authority because a com m ission er cannot effectively investigate a 
claim w ithout fear of violatin g the co m m issio n 's confidentiality 
clause, w hich protects individ uals charged w ith breaking the law.

U nder the Ethics C o m m ission 's current m and ate, staff w ho vio­
late the confid entiality provisions are subject to severe penalties, 
such as large fines, jail tim e and civil action.

M ickey Jo L aw rence, a R epublican com m ission er for the Ethics 
C om m ission appointed by form er Gov. G eorg e Bush, supports the 
Su n set C o m m ission 's recom m end ations and sp oke individually — 
not on behalf of the E thics C om m ission — at the hearing at the 
C apitol.

"T h e law gives [the E thics C om m ission] the right to investigate 
and subpoena d ocu m en ts, but we d o n 't do those things because of 
the confid entiality p ro v ision s," she said. "W e can refer a violation to 
the appropriate prosecutor, but w e'v e n ev er d one it because of the 
penalties. We can n ever go outside the recom m end ations in front of 
u s."

C om plaints are often throw n out becau se o f insufficient evidence, 
and the the Ethics C o m m ission can't talk to w itnesses, Law rence
said.

The report said the E thics C om m ission o p era tes each year on $1.7 

m illion in taxpayer money.

Business leaders protest proposition

By Miguel Liscano
Daily Texan S ta ff

Members of Austin's business community said 
Wednesday the proposed Fair Elections Act 
would unnecessarily take money from taxpayers.
Proposition 1, which will appear on the May 
4 ballot, would provide public financing to can­
didates who receive $5 contributions from at 
least 300 sources. Those who meet the mini­
mum requirement would receive a $16,666 
block grant in public funds, and $2 in public 
funds for every $1 a candidate raises.

Citizens for Responsible Use of Tax Dollars 
said the proposition will take money away from 
public sendees as the city* faces an expected 
shortfall of $4.9 million in the next budget cycle.
However, proponents of the proposition say 
the plan will actually help mend the city's 
financial troubles by putting into office people 
who will not fall prey 
to special 
interests 
and set aside money 
for corporate wel­
fare.

M em bers of the

Austin business community spoke out against 
the proposal Wednesday, 10 days before voters 
cast their votes.

"This is just not the right time, nor the right 
program to be implemented," said Dominic 
Chavez, spokesman for the Real Estate Council 
of Austin. "It should be obvious to the voters 
that this money could be better spent on our real 
priorities."

The city of Austin recently estimated that the 
proposition would give about $1.6 million to 
candidates per election. Chavez said the esti­
mate is conservative and does not include the 
cost of administering the program.

But Debbie Russell of Public Citizen, a con­
sum er advocacy group, said the true cost of the 
program will be minuscule when compared 
with the total budget.

She also said the the program may, in fact, 
help solve the city's budget problem, pointing

to former Austin Mayor Kirk Watson's Smart 
Growth Plan as an example of a politician giv­
ing in to corporate needs.

"If we spend a tiny bit of money on this, 
maybe we can get people into office that won't 
waste a whole lot of money," Russell said. "We 
could put people in there that actually will be 
putting money to projects the people support, 
not that the chamber of commerce or a few big 
businesses support."

Mark Hazelwood, Greater Austin Chamber 
of Commerce president and CEO, said the 
money would be better spent on public services 
such as health care, more police officers or new 
recreation facilities.

"The bottom line is that more than $1.6 mil­
lion of Austin taxpayers' money will be dis­
persed each year to candidates," Hazelwood 
said.

Chris Pulley, an Austin Community C o lle g e student, practices his ju m p W ednesday afternoon 

at the ACC p a rk in g lot skate park off 1 2 th Street and Shoal Creek Boulevard. The skate park 
is open to the public and allows s k a te rs a n d cyclists to practice th eir m oves.

LBJ School dean to speak 
at 2002 commencement

By Courtney Morris
Daily Texan Staff

The University announced W ednesday that Edwin 
Dorn, dean of the LBJ School of Public Affairs, will 
address the 119th universitywide spring commencement
May 18.

Dorn's speech, "Inventing the Future," will address 
new graduates' responsibility to be active participants in 
shaping the nation in years to come.

Dorn said Am erica's relatively brief history has given 
citizens the opportunity to focus their energies on 
"inventing" the future. U.S. society is unique in that 
Americans are not weighed dow n by a cumbersome past 
that dictates what roles its citizens can adopt, Dorn said.
"One of the distinctive features of American culture is 
our belief that tomorrow will be and should be better 
than today," Dorn said. "The challenge for the graduates 
will be to take responsibility for inventing the future."

Dorn said the tumultuous events of the past year, 
including the Sept. 11 attacks and violence in the Middle 
East, have Am ericans looking for w ays to avoid the 
recurrence of such situations.

"People are primed to hear that m essage because we 
certainly want to think of how som e of the recent disas­
ters can be averted," Dorn said.

He said, however, that Americans are not looking for 
superficial solutions to complex problem s like terrorism.
"What we're witnessing with terrorists is a conflict 
between the future and the p ast," Dorn said. "Those 
who are motivated to use w eapons of terror come from 
areas where the grievances are hundreds of years old."

Prior to his appointment as dean in 1997, Dorn served 
in the Clinton administration for four years as assistant 
secretary and then undersecretary of defense. In addi­
tion to his status as a distinguished alumnus of the 
University, he holds a doctorate in political science from 
Yale University.

A&M regents considering Gramm 
for president’s post, sources say

By The Associated Press

WASHINGTON — Sen. Phil Gramm and former CIA 
director Robert Gates have emerged as the top candidates for 
the Texas A&M University president's job, with the board of 
regents deadlocked, said three sources with ties to the 
Republican Party.

Five regents favor Gates, while three prefer Gramm, 
according to the sources, who spoke on condition of 
anonymity.

The ninth board member, Gramm's wife, Wendy, has 

recused herself from the process.

"He has no reason to believe that he's a candidate," Neal 
said. "Literally all we know about the presidency at Texas 
A&M is what we read in the newspapers."

If Gramm were chosen, he could leave his Senate job before 
his term ends in January 2003. Gov. Rick Perry then would 
appoint someone to fill Gramm's seat — possibly GOP 
Senate candidate John Comyn. In the November election to 
replace Gramm, the winner — either Comyn or Democrat 
Ron Kirk — would take the job permanently in January.

Gramm flatly denied the scenario to The Dallas Morning 

News.

The three regents who prefer Gramm are more closely tied 
to Republican Party politics and favor his political connec­
tions, while Gates' appeal is his academic background, said 
two of the sources — a Republican elected official and a con­
sultant.

"It sounds to me like it's a bunch of Democrats who* got 
drunk in Austin and decided how they could make Christmas 
come early," he told the newspaper for Wednesday's editions. 
"They're wrong. I'm not going anywhere."

Comyn, too, called the suggestion "unsubstantiated 

The board wants to reach a consensus before naming its 

rumor."

selection, one source said.

Gramm announced in August that he would finish his 
third term and then retire. That disclosure came soon after 
Texas A&M's outgoing President Ray Bowen said he would 
retire this summer.

Gramm has been denying rumors since last week that he 
was considering stepping down early, but has left open the 
possibility that he would accept an attractive offer. Spokesman 
Larry Neal said no such offer has come from Texas A&M.

"I'm running for election and that's the way I intend to get 

to the United States Senate is through election," he said.

Gates is a board trustee for the Forum for International 
Policy in Washington, D.C., a nonprofit, nonpartisan think 
tank of nationally recognized foreign policy experts. He does 
not have an office there and could not be reached at another 
telephone number provided by the forum.

Regents Chairman Erie Nye said board members have 

pledged not to discuss the board's deliberations.

Daily Texan Columnists

Nów that everyone has recovered from their post-award 
showr hangovers, The Daily Texan felt it was only appropri­
ate to reacquaint its readers with its ow'n awards phenome­
non: the third annual Disches.

Named after legendary Longhorn coach W.J. Disch, 
whose name also graces Texas' Disch-Falk Field, the Disches 
honor the Longhorn baseball team's more interesting 
achievements throughout the season.

Tuxedos and gow'ns are completely ridiculous, so just sit 

back, relax and enjoy the Disdies.

BIGGEST SURPRISE — Brandon Fahey

Little did we know' that so much pop could come from 
someone that size. The 6-foot 1-inch, 161-pound junior col­
lege transfer got off to a quick start in his first year at Texas, 
hitting .555 in his first four games.

What7s even more impressive is the fact that after coming 
back from a broken thumb, Fahey has continued to hit on a 
consistent basis. He is batting .329.

MOST UNDERRATED PLAYER — Justin Simmons

What else does this guy have to do to get the respect he 
deserves? The sophomore left-hander earned freshman All- 
American honors in 2tX)l and has won all 11 of his starts so 
far this season.

The pitcher has yet to receive praise at the national level, 
though. Baseball America has listed eight players that it 
thinks have the best shot at winning Pitcher of the Year, and 
for some reason, Simmons didn't make the cut.

Granted, Simmons isn't your prototypical major-league 
hurler, but his numbers (11 wins, 2.17 ERA, 49 strike-outs, 21 
walks) easily stack up to Baseball America's elite eight.

IFs not often that you can find a No. 3 team playing at 
Disch-Falk Field on a Tuesday. But this year, the Owls rolled 
into Austin as one of the nation's elite teams. This time 
around, the Longhorns were set on not letting a former 
teammate prevent a victory.

Texas spoiled a three-hit performance by Vincent Sinisi, 
who played at Texas a year ago, with a lOth-inrung rally. 
Three consecutive first-pitch rockets off the bats of Ryan 
Hubele, Jeff Ontiveros and Eric Sultemeier led to the Texas 
win.

WORST GAME OF THE YEAR — TCU 8, Texas 1 at the 
Astros College Classic

This was one the Longhorns would probably like to forget. 
This game was ugly from the get-go, as the Homed Frogs 
scored five runs in the first inning. To make matters worse, 
former Longhorn Jake Duncan stuck it to his old teammates 
by homering to right field. Texas was outhit 13-to-4, and 
starter Ray Clark surrendered eight earned runs in just over 
three innings of work.

TOUGHEST ROAD TRIP — Stanford

Leading 6-1 in the bottom of the ninth in Game 1, the 
wheels suddenly fell off for Texas, as the Cardinal staged an 
unbelievable comeback effort. Second baseman Chris 
O'Riordan hit a two-out grand slam off Texas reliever Alan 
Bomer to tie the game and force extra innings.

Texas ended up losing on an infield single in the 10th. The 
Horns bounced back to win 2-0 in the second game of the 
series, but were unable to take the rubber game from then 
top-ranked Stanford.

BEST BAT — Huston Street

Hailing from one of the most storied bloodlines in Texas 
athletic history, Street has proven to be nearly perfect in 
everything he does. The closer is among the leaders of the 
team in ERA at 1.04.

But on one of the most dangerous offensive teams in 
recent history, Street leads in batting with a perfect 1.000 
average. It's true he's only been to the plate once — pro­
ducing a triple — but perfection is highly regarded when 
handing out the Disches.

theme song

Every Texas player has the opportunity to pick a song to 
play as he walks to the batter's box at home games. So this 
decision was not easy with such a diverse pool to choose 
from. But there's just something about Judge Wapner. He 
had seemingly dropped off the face of the earth, unless you 
give any validity to anything that airs on Animal Planet.

That is, until Texas outfielder Joe Ferin breathed life back 
into the quasi-cultural icon with his choice of The People's 
Court theme song. Had we been covering football at Disch- 
Falk, third baseman J.D. Reininger would have walked 
away with the award hands down, thanks to his choice of 
the Monday Night Football theme song. But this is baseball, 
and the verdict is in: Ferin is guilty of having the best intro 
song.

PLAY OF THE YEAR — Jeff Ontiveros’ Grand Slam vs. 
Oklahoma

The Texas first baseman has had his share of home runs 
this season, including his record-breaking 44th career long- 
ball. But none were as big as his grand slam against the 
Sooners. After losing the opener in Norman, Okla., Texas 
led by only a run in the fourth inning of Game 2 when 
Ontiveros delivered a two-out grand slam that gave Texas 
the lead for good. The Horns went on to take the crucial 
conference series on their way to claiming the top spot in 
the Big 12.

COACH OF THE YEAR — Ben King

This award could have easily gone to any of the 
Longhorn coaches. Frank Anderson has once again gotten 
the most out of his pitching staff, who boasts the best team 
ERA in the country (2.47). Head coach Augie Gamdo has 
his team ranked in the top 10 in every national poll, and 
Tommy Harmon is largely responsible for producing top-5 
recruiting classes in three of the last five seasons.

But King, who is missing the season due to elbow surgery, 
has been the most surprising of the staff. The new first-base 
coach has truly "grown" into his new role, showing an 
uncanny ability to yell "Back" during pick-off plays.

Horns beat Aggies, 
remain atop Big 12

By Chad Thomas
Daily Texan Staff

The No. 14 Texas softball team 
came into its home matchup with No. 
24 Texas A&M hoping to inch closer 
to their first-ever Big 12 regular-sea- 
son title.

But while their 1-0 win over the 
Aggies is a steP toward the coveted 
crown, the Horns will have to wait 
until the weekend for their shot to 
win the Big 12 outright.

Moving through A&M proved to 
Be no cakewalk for the Horns, as 
Texas' Cat O sterm an and A&M's 
Lindsay Wilhelmson combined to 
surrender only one run and three hits.
Though Texas and A&M shared in 
offensive struggles, their approaches 
at the plate were on opposite ends of 
the spectrum. Taking the popular 
strategy to combat Osterman's array 
of drop balls, A&M undercut pitch 
after pitch and rarely saw the ball hit 
the dirt.

Texas, meanwhile, finished the 
night with 10 groundouts, compared 
to the Aggies' three.

"It was a credit to Wilhelmson," 
Texas head coach Connie Clark said. 
"She was throwing stuff down and 
away. We just put die ball in play, so 
I'm happy. We weren't just standing 
up there striking out."

Osterman retired the first 11 batters 
she faced, w hile Wilhelmson sat 
down 13 straight during the early 
innings. Still, the Horns took advan­

tage of their lone scoring opportunity, 
relying on timely hitting and a little 
luck.

After only one Texas hitter reached 
base through the first five frames, 
Melissa Martin led off the sixth inning 
with a single up the middle. Alexis 
Garcia then chopped a slow grounder 
to second that was bobbled by A&M's 
Lisa Klam.

A failed hit-and-run then backfired 
on the Horns, as Mario Hanks struck 
out at the plate and Martin got caught 
in a rundown on her way to third.

With Garcia on second and an open 
base at first, Wilhelmson opted to 
pitch around leadoff hitter Lindsay 
Gardner to put a force at any base. As 
Erin Mahoney then tapped a two-out 
roller to second, it appeared that the 
Horns' scoreless streak would contin­
ue.

Instead, second baseman Klam 
made her second error of the inning, 
botching a 10-foot toss to first that 
allowed a sprinting Garcia to score 
from second on the passed ball.

The one unearned run proved 
enough for Texas (42-10,15-1 Big 12), 
as Osterman stymied the heart of the 
A&M order, closing out the final 
frame with her ninth and 10th strike­
outs of the night.

"With their big hitters Collins and 
Ferguson coming up, I knew I would 
definitely have to pitch smarter in that 
situation," Osterman said. "But I 
knew if we got that one run, then that

was going to be it."

For Osterman, the shutout was her 
14th on the season and her second 
consecutive blanking of A&M. With 
her 10 strikeouts against the Aggies 
(34-14, 7-9), Osterman pulled to with­
in 25 of the freshman single-season 
strikeout record of 469, begging the 
questions: Will the freshman left-han­
der pitch Texas' final two regular-sea-

son games this weekend? Or will 
Amy Bradford continue to see time in 
the two-man rotation?

"I don't know," Osterman said of 
die possible weekend starts. "Amy 
[Bradford] has been hurt the last cou­
ple of days, but if she's ready to pitch, 
she'll pitch, too. Whatever the coaches 
want us to do. Right now, the plan is 
one-and-one, but we'll have to see."

Beware, this could 

be highly offensive.

This isn't your typi­
cal farewell column. 
We see so many of 
these "30 columns" as 
a platform for inside 
jokes and ballyhooed shout-outs. You 
won't find any of that here. In fact, it's 
quite the opposite.

I've met quite a few great people on this 
campus, in this dty and throughout my 
life. Most of these folks already know who 
they are and don't need their names splat­
tered in print for me to show appreciation. 
I will recognize a few folks along the way, 
but not too many.

So, for any of you who want to continue 
reading, do so with caution, because I'm 
guaranteed to piss you off somehow along 
the way. Just keep reading, and you'll see.
I didn't grow up in Texas, and I'm not 
hypnotized by Texas football. However, I 
do think our best quarterback sat on the 
sidelines in all but two games last year. 
Being from Louisiana, I guess I have a 
right to show a little favoritism.

I never learned the words to the Texas 
fight song, and I don't really care to learn 
them at this point. I still can't get past the 
first two lines of "The Eyes of Texas," and 
the only bumt-orange shirt I own is one 
from a local bar.

After serving four years in the United 
States Navy and visiting 12 countries, I

enrolled at a community college in Dallas. 
The goal was to go to a junior college, get 
in the best shape of my life and walk onto 
a football team at a smaller university.

Part of my training regimen was swim­
ming laps in a pool. One night, the pool got 
the better part of me when I dove in wiring 
and came up with life-threatening paralysis.
Four months later, after a doctor told me 
to anticipate life in a wheelchair, 1 had 60 per­
cent of my movement back. I still walk with 
a limp, but at least iFs walking. I fully under­
stand how unfortunate many people ate.

So, my dreams of playing college foot­
ball were broken like the C -4/5 verte­
brates in my neck. I decided to move on to 
the next best thing: sports writing.

Sports had been a big part of my life. As 
a writer, they still could be. I finally got 
back into the community college and 
worked for the school paper as the base­
ball, volleyball and soccer writer.

It was definitely cheaper than spending 
all four years at a big university, but quite 
a few people here don't give a damn what 
you accomplish before enrolling here, 
even as a transfer.

Like I said, there have been some good 
folks along the way, like a couple of admin­
istrators, a few teachers and a plethora of 
staffers from the student paper who gave 
me a chance. They know who they are.

But the trees of this 40 Acres have more 
bad apples than good. Maybe I just see 
things differently than most of you.

If you're still with me, then keep read­
ing, you'll be offended eventually. I'm not 
anti-Texas, or even somebody who hates 
this school. Actually, I like it here very 
much. There are just a few things we need 
to get straight.

Young girls 

jerseys 
draped themselves over rails, and old 
men gave up their bleacher seats so 
that college girls could work their way 
into the jam-packed metal rows.

The box office reported turning 
away more than 150 fans, and a quick 
count of those lining the outer walls of 
the field proved that the majority of 
those fans stayed.

"I told my wife w e should have got­
ten here a lot earlier," John Passnow, 
48, said. "I knew everyone would 
want to see the Aggies go down."

Passnow was one of over a hun­
dred fans who stood on their tip-toes 
or on the hills overlooking the field, 
trying to get a better view. Even if he 
had arrived on time, chances are he 
wouldn't have m ade it past the gate.

Texas assistant m edia relations 
director Am anda Klecker reported 
that a line began to rope around the 
field shortly before 5 p.m. The line

had grown to well over 200 by 6:00, 
according to box-office operators.

For the Horns, w ho pushed their 
conference-leading record to 15-2, this 
year's support hasn't come easily. 
Through much of the early season, 
crowd totals were sparse, averaging 
between 350 and 500 fans a game. 
Some fans didn't expect much after 
last season — the worst on record at 
24-29.

The lack of fan support was attrib­
uted to the unseasonably cold and 
rainy w eather that ham pered the 
Horns throughout the better part of 
their season-opening home stretch.

"We didn't come out to a lot of the 
gam es, because it w as too cold," 
Passnow said. "We usually make a

point of making all the openers, but 
this year it was rough."

Despite the offensive combination 
of L indsay G ardner and W ynter 
Turner and the strikeout-record chase 
of freshman Cat Osterman, spectators 
were few and far between.

But as the season moved along, fan 
totals began to rise. Less than tw o 
weeks ago, when Osterman broke the 
four-year-old single-season strikeout 
record against Baylor, nearly 900 fans 
m ade a showing.

group showings, th e fans who did

45 minutes passed before the stands

Exes Foundatk >n.

Because* I dum p my pockets into this 
university for tuition and outrageous 
fees doesn't mean I have to bleed 
orange. Just because I'm a sports writer 
for the school paper doesn't make me 
an expert on Longhorn basketball and 
football history.

I didn't enroll at this school because 
of its athletic teams. If I wanted to go 
somewhere with gcxid sports teams, 
then I would have gone to Oklahoma 
(with the exception of swimming).

At Texas, The Daily Texan gave me a 
small beat covering a local professional 
football team: the Austin Rattlers. This 
team went undefeated and w on the 
national championship.

My next beat? Men's swimming and 
diving. Eddie Reese coached this team 
to a national championship, and many 
coaches at the meet called Texas the 
best team in the history of collegiate 
swimming.

After that? Nothing. No beat. Not 
the football team. No hoops team. 
Nothing. Why would I want to cover 
the football or basketball teams and 
ruin my undefeated national cham pi­
onship record?

So, I've been stringing for area and 
state newspapers to help keep a roof 
over my head, all while staying with 
the Texan as an editor, a writing coach 
and someone who just shows up to 
harass everyone else and flirt with all 
the nice ladies.

But now the times with the Texan's 
nice ladies are almost done. Graduation 
is near, and I've already started receiving 
letters and brochures from the Texas

Apparently, the thousands of dollars I 
spent here in two years wasn't enough. 
They want me to donate money now.

Well, whenever I get a job, I reckon I'll 
have to make the decision whether to 
send money to the ever-growing cash 
cow known as UT. I can probably do it if 
I don't give money to the disabled veter­
ans' fund. The firefighters and the Red 
Cross can't possibly need that money as 
much as, say, the football team.

The Make-A-WLsh Foundation surely 
can't use the monetary help like this 
school desperately needs. Good thing 1 
won't be here in the fall for this fee 
increase.

And while we're talking about the 
fall, I'll give an early prediction: anoth­
er nine-win season, but three confer­
ence losses and a date in the Cotton 
Bowl. But this is just me talking, a guy 
who doesn't cover UT football.

For those of you who have made it 
this far through the column, you must 
be my friend, you must be extremely 
bored or you must not be mad at me yet.
Well, let's fix this. Put on your happy 
face, think of all the good things this 
university has to offer, then get to the 
next paragraph. I'm about to get con­
frontational and wipe that silly smirk 
from your face. Are you ready?

I know the bleeding-heart liberals 
haven't drudged their way this far 
through this literary work. Come on, 
there really can't be that many left- 
wing nuts.

Just because you're finally out of 
mom and d ad 's house, you think 
you're going to change the world? You 
talk about how radical you are and 
how things need to change. You're* just

young. Nobody is that liberal on the 
line. Find me in 20 years after you've 
made a boat-load of money, and tell 
me how left-wing you are.

Oh, to the anti-war protesters — 
what do you think you're doing? If 
anti-war marches didn't help during 
the Vietnam era, do you really think 
they'll work now after the United 
States has been attacked on its own 
soil? I don't think so.

Go back to the coffee shops, get out 
your largest book, talk about philoso­
phy and try to change the world one 
cup of coffee at a time.

I'm not on a complete tirade today. 
There are a few things I enjoyed in 
Austin, and there have been times here 
that I'll never forget. Election night 
2(XX) was a blast on Congress Avenue. I 
don't think any of us will ever forget 
what we were* doing on that day in 
September when the* world turned 
upside down.

Like I've said before, I'm only a two- 
year guy at this school. I don't have an 
ever-growing list of names to shout 
out. But some people are special for 
who they are.

I've known my roommate for nearly 
15 years, and we're closer than any broth­
ers could be. There were too many hard 
times dating back to our high school days 
in the late 1980s and early 1990s.

Randomly scattered throughout the 
country^ are five guys who I consider to be 
my brothers. We served more* than three 
years on the USS Ponce (LPD-15) and 
spent many nights drinking whiskey and 
listening to music in the middle of the 
Atlantic Ocean or the Mediterranean Sea 
on clear, starry nights.

As for The Daily Texan, the first year 
w asn't all that great, but the second 
one was a blast. Although I'm separat­
ed by seven or eight years from most of 
you, I was never denied having my

newlyweds, also.

T he senior staff in the sports office 
was great. I'd like to name all of you 
individually, but there probably isn't 
enough space in today's issue. Thanks 
for treating me like I was one of you 
and never considering me a burden for 
dragging up the rear with a bum leg. 
Thanks for watching my back, and I 
wish you all the best.

To the gals on the design desk and the 
girls in the features and news offices: Bye 
nice ladit*s! I'll miss you. But you're* prob­
ably saying, "Thank God he's gone."

And to the queen nice lady in the 
front office with the window: Good 
luck. You're very good at what you do.
Oh, good luck to all of our future

I'm not going to ram ble on about 
people for hours at a time. I have to fin­
ish up school, w h ich has been a IB- 
year-long, quite am azin g journey.

But what is even m ore amazing is 
the fact that a poor, aging, disabled vet­
eran who became a sports writer was 
able to keep you reading this long. 
Behold the power of the pen.

I reckon a few good things are still 
lurking around on this campus. It's been 
a good but quick — tw o years. Adios.

Dallas beats Minnesota 
takes 2-0 series lead

By The Associated Press

D A LLA S — W hen the Dallas M avericks' Big 
Three are rolling, not even career nights by All-Stars 
Kevin G arnett and Wally Szczerbiak can slow them 
down.

Dirk N ow itzki, M ichael Finley and Steve Nash 
forced the all-out tem po they love, running and 
shootin g 
the M innesota 
Tim berw olves 122-110 W ednesday night to take a 2- 
0 lead in the first-round playoff series.

the M avericks past 

Nowitzki had 31 points and 15 rebounds, Finley 
had 28 points and eight rebounds, and Nash con­
tributed 17 points and 17 assists.

The league's highest-scoring team also got a 
boost from its two late-season additions, as Nick 
Van Exel scored 17 points and Raef LaFrentz had 14 
points and 12 rebounds.

With so m uch com ing from so many, Dallas was 
able to easily withstand G arnett's 31 points and 18 
rebounds, and 25 points by Szczerbiak. Both were 
their best in a playoff game. Chauncey Billups also 
had 25.

The M avericks will go into G am e 3 on Sunday in 
M inneapolis looking for the knockout punch. The\ 
surely know their work isn 't done, though, after 
pulling off a com eback from an 0-2 deficit against 
Utah last season. It w as only the sixth time it has 
ever been done in a best-of-five series.

Still, the Tim berw olves' heads m ust be spinning. 
They thought they would break through after dom­
inating D allas in m any key statistical areas in Gam e 
1, then cam e out and played a superb first half, 
even hitting seven straight shots to open the second 
quarter, yet found them selves dow n by four.

The M avericks stretched their lead to 13 m idw ay 
through the third quarter behind a 19-7, highlight- 
filled spurt. Som e of the best were Nash spinning 
around Billups and feeding Eduardo Najera for a 
layup, and Finley m aking a steal ort one end and a 
thunderous dunk on the other.

M innesota called tim eout twice during the run to 
try to break up Dallas' m om entum , and it didn't 
w ork eith er tim e — not when the A m erican

Stackhouse s playoff career-high 
leads Pistons past Raptors

A U BURN H ILLS, M ich. - 

Jerry Stackhouse 
show ed he can still carry the Detroit Pistons with 
his shot.

Stackhouse scored a playoff career-high 31 points 
as the Tistons becam e the first team to take a 2-0 
lead in the N BA playoffs v\ ith a 96-91 vie torv over 
Toronto on W ednesday night.

G am e 3 of the best-of-five series is Saturday in 

Toronto.

Stackhouse scored I 3 points in the third quarter 
to help the Pistons take the lead for the first time 
since 1-0, and m ade three- 3-pointcrs in the final
5:17.

Ihe seventh-year pro said it w asn 't difficult to be 
aggressive- on offense after evolving into an all- 
around plaver this season.

"T h at's been my m entality all my life, so it w as 

not hard to revert back to that," Stackhouse said.

Stackhouse scored nearly 30 points a game d ur­
ing the 2000-01 season, but the- Listons won just 32 
games. This season, he- averaged 21.4 points a 
career-best 5.3 assists and 4.1 rebounds in 35.3 min­
utes as Detroit won 50 gam es and the Central 
Division.

The shooting guard took alm ost seven fewer 
shots per game and plaved neari- five fewer min 
utes than last season.

"W e've asked him to change his gam e more than 
any star player 1 can rem em ber in the last 1 5 y ears," 
Detroit coach Rick Carlisle said.

Toronto coach Lenity W ilkens said Stackhouse 

did w hat great plavers do dow n the stretch.

"Ju st because he's m aking other people better 
doesn't mean that he should give up his offense. 
That would be sttipid,'' W ilkens said. "But it's 
using the offense at the right time, and that's w hat 
he's doing."

Bryan OKs law limiting house occupants

By John Gouda
Daily Texan S ta ff

The Bryan C ity Council approved a city ordi­
nance thrs w eek that limits the n u m b e r of unne- 
lated in d iv id u als living in one h o u se to four, a 
decision that cou ld affect Texas A & M U niversity 
students.

"It is ce rta in ly something that co n c e rn s the 
stud ents," said newly elected A & M Student 
Body P resid en t Zac Coventry. " It potentially 
affects 44,000 people."

C oventry also said the ordinance w o u ld hurt 
leasing and real estate businesses, a s w ell as the 
30,000 stu d en ts that live off cam pus.

concerns, A & M 

"We have to m eet and discuss w h a t th is ordi­
nance m eans, and how it's going to affe ct stu­
dents," C o v e n try said.

But m em bers of the Bryan City Council, such 
as M ichael Beal, said the effects of the bill have 
been overstated because it only applies to n eigh­
borhoods 
th a t d o n 't allo w m u ltip le -fa m ily 
homes. He said the ordinance is part of a cou n ­
cil plan to im prove the quality of Bryan n eig h ­
borhoods.

"W hat w e're doing is defining the m eaning of 
family," he said. " It's effect on real estate w ill be 
negligible M ost houses only have four bed ­
rooms an yw ay."

7 he b ill w as passed 6-0 Tuesday. Beal 
abstained from the vote because he is a real 
estate agent.

It w asn 't targeted at stu d en ts." Beal said. 
"But the im petus for the ordinance was a lot of 
com plaints 
filed bv sev eral n eigh bo rh o o d s. 
Students tend to be louder, certainly."

Russell Bradley, another council member, also 
said the o rd in ance was not approved sim ply to 
limit stu d en ts' housing options.

"T h is ordinance applies to all renters, not just 
stu d ents," Bradley sáid. "T h is is going to affect 
the person w ho rents a tw o-bedroom house ... 
and suddenly th ere's six cars and tw o boats in 
the drivew ay."

Bradley said the law w ould have a m inim al 

effect on A & M 's fraternities and sororities.

"It'll stop fraternities from existing in fam ily 
neighborh ood s," Bradley said. "B u t m ost frater­
nities and sororities have their ow n zones, and 
m ost of those are in C ollege Station."

He also addressed the charges that the ord i­

nance violated living and privacy rights.

"E very ordinance that gets passed violates liv­
ing rights," Bradley said. "It tells you w hat you 
can and can 't do w hen you live som ew here."

Both council m em bers said they are concerned 

with how the bill w as going to be enforced.

C ollege Station passed a sim ilar ordinance on 

residential neighborhoods in fall 2001.

Local organizations hold memorial 
service for victims of violent crime

By Ben Heath
Daily Texan S taff

Austin residents remembered the lives of v i c t i m s of vio­
lent crimes Wednesday in a memorial cerem ony at Central 
Christian Church.

In the service, hosted by several organizations, including 
the Travis County Attorney's Office, the Austin Police 
Department, People Against Violent C rim e and SafePlace, 
participants paid tribute to the victims and survivors of vio­

lent crime.

"It's more about raising concern and keeping concern 
in the community," said Mack Martinez, the trial chief for 
the Travis County Attorney's Office. "T h e community is 
very good about supporting agencies that work with vio­
lent crim e."

The event also recognized Ed Born-Long, an Austin 
resident w hose daughter was m urdered in 1997 by an 
abusive boyfriend in California. B orn-L ong now works 
with SafePlace, an Austin shelter for victim s of domestic 
abuse.

" The community deals with [violent crime] by sup­
porting these kind of agencies," M artinez said. "That is 
our community coming forward and saying that this is 
our problem, not just [the victims'] problem ."

Born-Long became involved with the organization two 
weeks after his daughter's death, when he received a $1,000 
check from his roofing contractor association to give to any 
charity in his daughter's name. He now works to raise 
money and gather resources for SafePlace.

"1 made three times as much as a contractor than I do 
working for SafePlace, but as my wife constantly tells me, 
I'm so much happier now," Bom-Long said.

Martinez also said community support allows SafePlace 
and organizations like it to effectively combat the effects of 
violent crime.

"These agencies are able to work the frontline because 
thev have so many volunteers," Martinez said. "It's impor­
tant to keep that going."

This is the first year the memorial service has honored an 
individual for his work with the community. However, 
Martinez said it is important to recognize those who bring 
honor to the victims and survivors of violent crime.

In his speech, Bom-Long stressed the importance of 

organizations like SafePlace.

"I sure intend to refocus the spotlight on SafePlace," 
Born-Long said. "SafePlace has done way more for me than 
I could ever do for them."

Exercise shown to 
drop blood pressure

By The Associated Press

W A SH IN G TO N — The com bined 
data o f 54 stu d ies put the w eight of 
evid en ce behind the ben efit of aero­
bic exercise to control blood pres­
sure.

E xercise pu shes d ow n blood pres­
sure, regardless o f age, w eight or 
blood pressure lev els before the per­
son started to exercise, according to 
a statistical analysis o f the studies.

The averag e red u ction w as 3.8 
m illigram s o f m ercu ry in systolic 
p ressure — the m easu rem en t taken 
w hen the heart con tracts and pushes 
b loo d 
th e a rte rie s. T h e 
average d iastolic red uction, taken 
w hen the heart relaxes, w as 2.58 
m illigram s o f m ercu ry lower.

th rou g h 

" I f w e can red u ce systolic pres­
sure by 3.8, we can reduce a lot of 
risk o f 
ca rd io v a s cu la r d ise ase, 
stroke — e v e ry th in g ," said Dr. Jiang 
H e of Tulane U niversity.
B ein g p hy sically 

in activ e raises 
the risk of d ev elop in g high blood 
pressure, and federal su rveys find 
25 percent of all ad u lts are not active 
at all. A bout a q u arter of A m erican 
ad u lts have high blood pressure, 
and the risk o f p roblem s resulting 
from the cond ition gets w orse as 
pressu re rises.

N o rm a l blood p re ssu re 

in an 
ad u lt is low er than 130 systolic, 85 
diastolic. High blood pressure is 140 
ov er 90 or above. R ead ings betw een 
those are consid ered borderline.

T he report in the A pril issue of 
A nnals o f Internal M edicin e exam ined 
stu d ies involving 2,419 participants.
T he researchers pooled cases from 
sm aller stud ies in w hich som e p eo ­
ple did aerobic exercise and others 
did not. The scien tists cou nted on 
the resulting larger nu m ber of cases 
to give a m ore accu rate assessm ent 
of the effect o f aerob ic exercise on 
blood pressure. E vidence on the size

of the effect had been inconsistent in 
the sm aller groups, they said.

T h e pooled figures show ed the 
exten t of the drop in blood pressure 
w as fairly consistent regardless of 
w h at form of exercise the partici­
p an ts did.

"F o r som eon e w ho is sedentary, 
ev en sm all things like w alking or 
rid ing a bike, the stud y show s, can 
sig n ific a n tly 
th e ir blood 
red u ce 
p ressu re," said researcher Seam us P. 
W helton of Princeton.

It also did not m ake a difference 
w h eth er the p articip an ts w ere ov er­
w eigh t or at norm al w eight. "B lood 
pressure w as sign ifican tly reduced 
ev en in p articip an ts w ho did not 
lose w eight o v erall," the report said.
T h e benefit w as there w h eth er the 
p articip an ts had high blood pres­
sure or norm al blood pressure. And 
the exten t of the red u ctio n from 
exercise w as greater than w hat was 
found in sim ilar stu d ies on reducing 
salt in the diet or red ucing alcohol 
use.

The red uction cited in the paper is 
m o d e st b u t v a lu a b le, 
said Dr. 
G erald Fletcher of the M ayo C linic 
in Jackson ville, Fla., w ho is also a 
sp okesm an for the A m erican H eart 
A ssociation.

"It's a good ad d itional b it to know 
for ou r pitch on lifesty le changes 
ra th er than taking pills or other 
th in g s that m ay give sid e effects," 
Fletch er said.

T h e benefits of exercise m ay vary 
am ong individ uals, but the paper in 
the jo u rn al "p ro b ab ly show s us the 
average to ex p e ct," Fletch er said.

Teaching

The AISD Future Teachers Scholarship Program provides a 

special incentive for those who choose to teach subjects 

facing critical teacher shortages in Texas.

Students seeking initial teacher certification in secondary 

science, mathematics, computer science, foreign language 

or certification in special education or bilingual/ESL 

education, may be eligible to receive scholarships of $1,000 

to $1,500 for each of their last four semesters of teacher 

preparation.

The scholarships are not based on financial need. All 

students who are accepted into one of these teacher 

education programs, enroll on a full-time basis, maintain 

a GPA of 2.5 or above and follow basic program require­

ments will receive the scholarship.

Funds for the scholarship program were generated by 

the Austin Independent School District as part of a 

state requirem ent to dissem inate property 

tax revenue above a state-imposed cap. The 

scholarships should be available at least 

through the 2006-07 school year. For further

B y now, it's no secret that A lice in 
C h ain s lead singer Layne Staley w as 
found dead in his Seattle condo last

later, The 
S eattle Times reported that the King

Staley had been d eceased for two 
w eek s before his bod y w as d iscov­

the cau se o f death, but Staley 's life 
w as riddled with continu al bouts of 
heroin addiction. In fact, Staley w as 
one of the few popular m u sicians in 
-the history of the w orld who w as 
com p letely open and candid about 
his abuse.

T h e textbook case of a surviving, 
rich drug addict, Staley sang about 
his troubles on all of the A lice in

Thursday U prock at Texture (505 
Neches St.) continu es to deliver pure 
and unique perspectives on hip-hop. 
The D J-focused hip-hop night has 
been responsible for bringing som e of 
the best turntablists in the countrv to 
Austin. Tonight, they expand into the 
international realm w ith DJ Vadim 
and The Russian Percussion Tour.

While the Russian Percussion Tour 
was formed in 1999, DJ Vadim has been 
championing the hip-hop cause in 
Moscow for mom than 12 years. During 
that time, he founded Jazz Fudge 
records and released USSR Repertoire 
and USSR: Life from the Other Side on the 
Ninja Tunes label. H e pushes a more 
dark and serious tone with a definite 
jazz backing, which can be heard in the 
strong 
"Your 
sexy 
Revolution," featuring spoken word 
from Sarah Jones. Sometimes, it takes an 
outsider to break the mold and truly 
experiment with a genre. In fact, the 
mixture of spoken word, MC skills, fan­
tastic tumtablist ability' and driven orig­
tracks should be compelling 
inal 
enough to leave no excuse for missing 
this show.

pf 
Jamaican/English raga flow-master 
Demolition Man and spoken-word poet 
Yarah Bravo, who c laims too many 
nationalities to list. Demolition Man is

known for complex, fluid rhymes and a 
propensity to switch between different 
VIC styles. Spoken-word poet Yarah 
Bravo brings a I atin-American flare 
with deeply insightful lyncs, while not 
losing sight of the party-rocking pur- 
pose. They are after all, t lub performers. 
And while their tone might be artful and 
jazzy, the hip-hop thump and bounce

still makes the butts move.

What will not be found any other 
rhursday night at texture is the typi­
cal pimps-and-hoes slog played in 
other clubs But tonight, in particular, 
1 )J Vadim and The Russian Percussion 
Tour w ill delivt r thoughtful composi­
tions, accentuating scratching, intelli­
gent lyrics and thumping beats.

T H E GREATER.
A U S 'r I N

CHAMBER OF 
C O M M E R C E

By Jennifer Prestigiacomo
Daily Texan Staff

An assertive young woman visits 
Hsiao Kang's (Lee Kang-Sheng) watch 
stand and inquires about the waU h on 
his wrist. The voung woman, rvali/ing 
there is no other w atch like it, wants to 
purchase his w'atch immediately since 
she is leaving for Paris the next day. At 
first, Kang won't part w ith his watch, 
since he is mourning his father's death 
and it would give her bad luck The 
young woman persists until Kang final­
ly submits and gives her tin watch.

WHAT TIM E IS IT 
THERE?
starring Lu Yi-Ching, Lee Kang Sheng- 
directed by Tsai Ming-Liang

★ ★ ★ * 

As the girl walks away, Kang wears 
an aching mask of longing. His soul, a 
chasm of ennui, is compelled to bridge 
the seven-hour gap betwet n his home 
in Taipei and Paris Jbv setting all the 
Taiwanese clocks to Paris time The brief 
presence of this girl in his life n sembles 
the only light in his encapsulating soli­
tude.

Wluit I'itne is it There? tonally ushers a 
wave of emptiness and sadness. Kang's 
inner-dealings with . riel arkh con­
trast his mother's (Lu Yi-C ung) o p e n 
denial of her husband's o uth. I )uring 
the final third of the movie, the three 
protagonists parallel each other's 
unhappiness that illuminates tht ir dif­

ferent ways of dealing with loss.

This film marks Taiwanese director 
Tsai Ming-Liang's fifth feature, which 
made its world debut at the Cannes 
international Film Festival. Ming-Liang 
conti nuts to use actor Lee Kang-Sheng 
in all his starring roles and uses the 
other actors continually as an acting 
troupe.

Ming-Liang's long, static shots com­
pletely capture the human spirit in his 
characters. Though they may bore some 
viewers used to the hyper-quick 
Hollywood style used by the likes of 
Quentin Tarantino and Guy Ritchie, the 
long s h o t s in l ime expose the thoughts 
and emotions of the characters. The 
long shots also take the place of dia­
logue, since Ming-Liang uses words 
sparingly in his story.

As Ming-Liang told Time Out New 
f have a distrust of language. It 
Yod 
hinders communication. The challenge 
is to be more truthful than anything in 
conversations. Actions speak for them­
selves."

In this film, the director uses private 
actions to further typify his characters. 
Kang urinates in water bottles in the 
middle of the night when there is a toi­
let in the house. 1 le does this because he 
doesn't w'ant to encounter his mother, 
w ho paces the night, waiting for his 
father's spirit to return. The mother 
furtively masturbates after a long, sad 
look at the picture of her dead husband.

What Time is it There?

The viewer shares private moments 
with the characters, and, in doing so, 
becomes closer to sharing their emo­
tions.

This may not be the most riveting 
movie. It may not contain the wittiest 
dialogue or die most fascinating camera 
techniques. But in recent memory, Wluit 
Time is it There? is the most evocative 
and emotionally charged movie to 
delve mercilessly into the hearts and 
souls of its characters. Bravo Tsai Ming- 
Liang! I hope it w ill be only a short time 
until your next film.

By Shannon R ichardson
D aily Texan Staff

Al out 600 m id dle school stud ents took a 
held trip to the U n iv ersity W ednesday to 
learn ab ou t Russian culture.

The second annual R ussia Day, sponsored 
by the I f C en ter for R ussian, East European 
and Eurasian Studies, featured R u ssian food, 
language-, folk m usic, au th en tic costu m es 
and exhibits. It w as held to increase aw are- 
ness ol Russian culture in Austin.

Russia ¡s im portant to me personally, and 
! would likt 
to introduce these stud ents to 
the u I ture, the language, the p eop le,” said 
Í liornas Garza, 
the C R EES d irecto r W ho 
lived in Russia for five years. ” We are trying 
S ' niak< U l students and the com m unity 
av. are tin re's a huge w orld out there."

S. M> g r a d e r s from four A u stin-area mid- 
llt -chools L I students and oth er m em bers 
of thi Austin com m unity attended the event. 
About 150 volunteers, prim arily UT students 
* 
; ( lassos in the center, volu nteered to 
help the festivities run sm oothly.

w hich the m id dle-schoolers could look at 
p o sters and videos, and hear exp lanations of 
v ario u s asp ects of the R u ssian cu ltu re. 
Stu d en ts learned about R ussian pop culture, 
la n g u a g e , vam p ires, g eo g rap h y , m ilitary, 
w om en and more.

C h ike A gbatekw e, a six th -g rad e student at 
P flu gerville M iddle School, said that in addi­
tion to having a lot of fun, he learned that all 
Russian m en are drafted into the m ilitary 
once they turn 18.

La loria Tinsley and B ianca R osado, both 
stu d e n ts at B ed ichek M id d le Sch o o l 
in 
Austin, said the population o f Russia — 
about 144 m illion people — is larger than 
they thought.

C am ero n O v erto n , 

at 
P flu gerville M iddle School, said he learned 
about R ussian hats.

In addition to the exhibits, the students 
w atched R u ssian-language film s, including 
The Frog Princess, as a v o lu n teer translated.

Stu d en ts tasted trad itional Russian foods 
such as piroshki, a m eat pie stuffed with cab­
bage or apples and raisins, and buterbrody, 
op en -faced sandw iches. They also sam pled 
R ussian tea cookies and kvass, a drink m ade

from black bread, and sour cherry juice.

A sh ort w orkshop enabled stu d en ts to 
learn the C y rillic alphabet and how to spell 
their nam es in Russian.

S la v g d illo , a 

local folk gro u p , played 
Russian m u sic using an accordion, chrom atic 
harm onica and a Iurkish saz, w hich took the 
place o f a the traditional balalaika, a stringed 
in stalm en t.

"I'm h op ing [the students] get a broader 
kn ow led ge o f Russian cu sto m s," said Am y 
M cM illan , 
at 
C REES. "A n d to at least get them a little bit 
interested in the culture and lan g u ag e."

N atalie G ober, C R EES outreach coo rd in a­
tor, said she wanted to give the y ou n g stu­
dents "a slice o f life."

C R E E S, established at the U n iv ersity in 
1984, rep resents 15 d ep artm ents and has 
about 50 fa cu lty m em bers. C R E E S offers 
m ore than 100 courses in language, social sci­
en ce, h u m a n ity and p ro fession al sch oo l. 

Each year, C R E E S sponsors o u tre a c h schol­

in stru ctio n al activities, su ch as 
Russia Day.
