As rain soaked the Fiesta Gardens festival grounds, a 
group of men and women danced, clapped and sang on 
stage, while others huddled u n d e r vendors' tents to stay 
dry.

Despite the downpour, several thousand people attend­
ed the fifth annual Texas Gay Pride Festival held Sunday at 
the Fiesta Gardens. The festival, hosted by the Lesbian/G ay 
Rights Lobby of Texas, was one of many events this week­
end held in celebration of the gay/lesbian community.

"This event gives us a chance to celebrate o u r good 
work," LGRL executive director Diane Hardy-Garcia said. 
"It also inspires us to become involved more and be a big 
part of the community."

The festivities began Saturday with the presentation of A 
Night at the Gardens: Songs, Stars and Cinema, hosted by the 
Gay a n d Lesbian Film Festival. Events continued Sunday 
with a Texas Pride Brunch featuring food, Caribbean music 
and cham pagne cocktails. All events were held at Fiesta 
Gardens.

"The five years have been fabulous," Hardy-Garcia said. 
"It's a great location. The east side has much to offer. I

Tryouts underway for newest team in league

Girls belong in the kitchen.
Try telling that to the w o m e n trying o u t for 
the n e w e s t 
the W om en 's 
to 
Professional Football League — the A ustin Rose.
"I'v e heard every th in g from w om en can't play 
to w o m e n belong in the kitchen," said Jennifer 
Steele, general m an ag e r and o w n er of Austin 
Rose. "W hen I hear that I say 'I can't cook — my 
h u s b a n d does all the cooking.'"

A u stin has been g ra n te d a team charter by the 
W om en's Professional Football League to play 
in the upco m in g 2000 WPFL In au gu ral Season 
starting Oct. 14.

A ustin Rose held the first of four tryouts 
S a turda y at the A ustin H igh School football 
field. Tryouts were NFL-style with com bined 40- 
yard dash, short shuttle runs, agility drills, ball- 
h an d lin g drills, and a vertical leap.

Rex Stevenson, coach of Austin Rose, said 
three more tryouts will be held this su m m e r 
until he fills a 50-60 m e m b e r roster. During a six 
week training camp, the roster will be cut d ow n 
to 40 m embers.

Stevenson has coached in semi-professional 
football leagues for 25 years and is currently 
coaching the U.S. N ational A m erican League 
m e n 's team.

"I enjoy the gam e — I started coaching the 
y o u th leagues and m ov ed up ," he said. "G ame 
stays the sam e no m a tte r w h a t and I expect the 
sam e w ith this team."

Steele said she chose Stevenson because of his 
record, his resum e a n d an NFL re com m endation 
even th oug h he will be getting paid more than 
w h a t the WPFL pays coaches.

"I will be paying him out of pocket," Steele

said. "I w ant the best."

The league, which began last year, plays "full 
contact American tackle football," ab id in g b y all 
N ational Football League rules — the same rules 
that m en 's professional football plays by.

This year there will be 13 teams a n d two c o n ­
ferences. Austin Rose will play in the West 
Division against division o p p o n e n ts the Dallas 
W ildcats, H o u s to n Energy and N a sh v ille 
Dream.

The only difference betw een the men an d 
w o m e n 's football will be alterations to the u n i ­
forms, including chest protection. Steele, w h o 
also ow ns her ow n m a n ufactu ring c o m p a n y and 
law lirm , said she is trying to contact un iform 
m an ufactu rers about these changes.

"We also had problem s last y e a r with the 
p a n ts — m e n 's h ip s go stra ig h t d o w n and 
w o m e n 's d o n 't," she said. "We just w a n t to h elp 
these w o m e n be m ore comfortable w h en they 
play."

The league began 

last year w ith the "N o 
L im its" B a rn sto rm in g Tour, w hich 
in c lu d e d

couldn't ask for more."

Austin resident Heather Beatty said she heard about the fes­
tival through friends. A third-year attendee, Beatty said she 
enjoys the many activities the event offers.

I listen to the music, look for friends and try to visit all the 

booths," she said.

Booths set up by organizations selling food, art, jewelry and 
other items catered to the festival goers, and clubs ranging 
from a Methodist church to a nudist organization sought to 
recruit new members from the crowd.

Every year the group of attendees becomes more and more 
eclectic," Hardy-Garcia said. "It's very important that people 
find a place to be safe and gay and be who they really are."

latest barriers 

Several booths encouraged people to join in political action 
their ad vancem ent. 
ag ainst 
Signatures were being gathering against radio talk show host 
Dr. Laura Schlessinger, who some members of the hom osexu­
al community believe speaks in a derogatory way toward 
them. Last year, a major concern was a bill in the legislation 
that would bar sam e sex couples from adopting children.

facing 

"You couldn't adopt your sister's children if she died, and 
that's really sad," Beatty said. "This is the type of issue you 
find out about here, and that is an issue I really care about."

Representatives o f Safe Space, a campus organization dedi­
cated to educating the public about the gay, lesbian, bisexual, 
transgendered and questioning community, attended the fes­
tival to m ake the com munity aware of its activites and to pub­
licize its cause.

"We are an organization dedicated to prom oting aw are­
ness of sexual orientation," said Chris Fahrenthold , Safe 
Space vice presid ent and political science junior. " T h e most 
effective w a y to elim inate stereotypes and discrim ination is 
to ed u cate ."

Safe Space, which is located in Jester West, offers training 
classes so people become more familiar with the issues facing 
the gay and lesbian community.

"O u r classes are attended by GLBTQs, faculty, staff, TAs, 
and straight people who want to be allies. Som e R A s even 
have us do programs for their floor," Fahrenthold said. "We 
basically serve the whole university."

A $5 entrance fee collected at the festival gates will go 
toward funding the LGRL's activities, including lobbying for 
certain bills.

"I get calls everyday from people across the state w h o need 
our help and this m oney will go to help them ," Hardy-Garcia 
said. "This is a good event with a purpose. It's like w e're par­
tying for a cause."

Russian 
President 
Vladimir Putin 
greets President 
Clinton, Sunday, 
in the Kremlin in 
Moscow at the
start of their 
talks. Clinton 
and Putin are 
expected to sign 
a deal on the dis­
posal of 68 tons 
of weapons-grade 
plutonium.

Associated Press

Clinton, Putin cite terrorist threat; 
no decision on missile defense
Leaders agree 
to convert 
plutonium 
to non-lethal 
purposes

The missile shield concept also has critics in 
the United States, from arms control activists 
worried about a new arms race to conserva­
tives who favor a more ambitious program 
along the lines envisioned by Ronald Reagan 
in the 1980s.

The issue of a proposed limited national 
missile defease — and the changes in the 1972 
Anti-Ballistic Missile treaty that would be 
required to accommodate it — was a top issue 
on the agenda for the talks.

Despite their differences, the two leaders — 
meeting in the Kremlin for the first time since 
Putin was sworn in last month — adopted a 
statement pledging intensified cooperation on 
missile-related issues.

Republican presidential candidate George 
W. Bush, w ho favors a more expansive pro­
gram, had urged Clinton to leave negotiations 
with Putin to the next president.

“We've asked our experts to keep working 
to narrow the differences, and to develop a 
series of cooperative measures to address the 
missile threat," Clinton said.

The administration had lowered expecta- 
tioas for a resolution before the session, and 
none was achieved.

"President Putin made absolutely clear to 
President Clinton that Russia continues to 
oppose changes to the ABM Treaty that the 
United States has proposed 
last 
September," Deputy Secretary of State Strobe 
Talbott told reporters.

Putin took notice of the U.S. presidential 
campaigns, saying, "We're familiar with the 
programs of the two main candidates." He 
suggested he was willing to improve U.S.- 
Russian ties "no matter who gets to be presi­
dent."

the ABM Treat}' later "to preserve strategic sta­
bility in the face of new threats."

a very comfortable and pleasant partner in 
negotiation."

U.S. officials characterized that as an impor­

tant concession on Russia's part.

By The Associated Press

MOSCOW — President Clinton and 
Russian President Vladimir Putin acknowl­
edged "a dangerous and growing threat" of 
nuclear attack from emerging powers such as 
North Korea, but failed to agrie Sunday on 
how to combat it.

Clinton told a joint news conference in the 
Kremlin that he doesn't believe a missile 
defense system like the one he is considering 
"is a threat to strategic stability and mutual 
deterrence."

"The Russian side disagrees," said Clinton. 
"We're against having a cure which is worse 

than the disease," Putin said, tersely.

Nonetheless, the document signed by both 
leaders left open the possibility of modifying

Clinton stressed that he still hasn't made a 
decision on whether to go ahead with such a 
system, which would be aimed at protecting 
U.S. shores against attack from North Korea, 
Iran or other states with nuclear weapons 
potential. He has said he will decide later this 
year whether it is feasible and worthwhile.

The two leaders also signed agreements put­
ting in force initiatives begun by Clinton and 
former Russian President Boris Yeltsin to 
reduce weapore-grade plutonium stockpiles 
by 34 tons each, and to set up a joint center in 
Moscow to monitor missile launches.

These are "major steps to reduce the nuclear 

danger," Clinton said.

Clinton and Putin appeared to hit it off, even 

if they weren't yet on a first-name basis.

After two days of talks, Qinton said he 
believes Putin, a former KGB official, "is fully 
capable of building a prosperous, strong 
Russia." Putin said Clinton is "a person who is

Talbott, who is also Clinton's special adviser 
on Russia, said the summit produced "neither 
a dead end ... nor a destination" on the subject 
of missile defense. He said Putin was clearly 
sensitive to the threat from so-called rogue 
regimes.

"The world that is covered by the ABM 
treaty changed ver}' vividly on Aug. 31, 1998, 
when the North Koreans fired that missile," 
Talbott said, referring to the multistage missile 
fired by North Korea that passed over Japan 
and fell into the Pacific Ocean.

In the joint statement, Clinton and Putin 
agreed that "the international community faces 
a dangerous and growing threat of prolifera­
tion of weapons of mass destruction and their 
means of delivery, including missiles and mis­
sile technologies."

Clinton also reiterated U.S. opposition to the 
continuing Russian military crackdown in the 
separatist region of Chechnya. They talked 
about tensions in the Balkans, and Russia's 
economic plight.

Clinton said that although they couldn't 
agree on everything, the two presidents at least 
explained their differences with "clarity and 
candor. And I appreciate that."

Later Sunday, Clinton spent 25 minutes on a 
call-in radio program, fielding questions from 
Russians w ho appeared more eager to learn 
about his personal life than weighty foreign 
policy issues.

He told listeners he was proud of daughter 
Chelsea's progress in college and of his wife, 
Hillary Rodham Clinton, who is running for 
the Senate from New York.

NASA crashes satellite

By The Associated Press

GREENBELT, Md. — After nine years 
of unprecedented studies of the universe, 
the Com pton G am m a Ray Observatory wras 
deliberately slam m ed into the atm osphere 
Sunday, where it broke up and fell in a 
show'er of hot metal into a remote stretch of 
the Pacific Ocean.

In the first planned and controlled crash 
of a satellite, NASA engineers directed the 
Com pton through a series of suicide rocket 
firings that dro p p ed it from a high orbit and 
sent it plunging to Earth. Launched on 
April 5, 1991, it died after completing 51, 
658 orbits of the Earth.

The 17-ton spacecraft w orked perfectly 
through a final 30-m inute rocket tiring and 
then engineers w atched on instrum ents in 
mission control as the speeding satellite 
heated, broke apart and then w ent silent. 
Engineers estim ated it took as long as 20 
m inutes before some of the lighter pieces 
finally hit the ocean.

Mission re-entry director Tom Q uinn said 
Air Force personnel aboard an observation 
plane gave an "an extrem ely good confir­
mation" that the hail of hot metal show ered 
the ocean w'here NASA engineers h ad 
planned.

"They w ere looking exactly w'here we 
told them to look, and they saw it w hen we 
told them it w ould be there," said Q uinn.

The target was a corridor starting som e 
2,500 m iles so u th east of H aw aii and 
extending for more than 2,000 miles so u th ­
east. Q uinn said tracking signals from the 
spacecraft's final m inutes indicated that its 
surviving pieces w ould safely hit the target, 
far from any land.

A failed gyroscope prom pted the space 
agency to decide in March to d u m p the 
$670 million Com pton. Its 370-mile orbit 
w ould have kept it aloft for another 11 
years, but NASA officials w ere w orried that 
if m ore equipm ent failed engineers w ould 
not be able to control the vehicle and it 
w ould m ake a dangerous random return to 
Earth.

The spacecraft overflies m any populated 
areas, including Mexico City, Bangkok and 
Miami, and NASA engineers calculated 
that if C om pton w ere allow ed to fall on its 
ow n, there w as one chance in 1,000 that 
som eone w ould be killed.

A controlled re-entry d ro p p ed the od d s 

of a fatality to about one in 29 million.

Ed Weiler, NASA's chief scientist, decid ­
ed it was too risky to keep the craft in orbit.

Commission says U.S. should 
get tough on Greece, Pakistan

WASIIINGI ON — Officials should consider 
designating Greece and Pakistan as countries 
"not cooperating fully" in the battle against ter­
rorism and strengthen the category by banning 
those countries' citizens from traveling to the 
United States w ithout visas, a blue-ribbon com ­
mission said.

Pakistan provides "safe haven, transit and 
moral, political and diplom atic su p p o rt to sev­
eral groups engaged in terrorism " and Greece
a NATO ally — "has been disturbingly pas­
sive in response to terrorist activities," accord­
ing to the National Com m ission on Terrorism, a 
panel of private experts and former governm ent 
officials. Africa, is to report to law m akers on 
Monday.

I he United States currently allows certain 
countries' citizens to visit the United States for 
three m onths w ithout a visa. But C ongress 
should ban countries in the "not cooperating 
fully" category from the visa-w aiver program , 
the commission said.

Right now, Afghanistan is the only country 
listed as "not cooperating fully," and Pakistan is 
not in the visa-w aiver program.

Greece was just approved for the program , 
however, though U.S. officials said in February 
they w ould continue excluding the country 
until it tightens its passport procedures against 
fraud.

O ther sug g estio n s from 

the com m ission 

include:

— Tracking foreign students in America. The 
governm ent should m onitor changes in stu­
den ts' study plans. A foreign stu d en t w ho 
switches from an English literature major to 
nuclear physics m ight arouse suspicion, for 
example.

— Allowing the m ilitary to lead the response 
to any major terrorist attack on U.S. soil, as 
opposed to the FBI or the Federal Emergency 
M anagem ent Agency.

— Loosening restrictions on the FBI and CIA 
in opening investigations of terrorist suspects or 
using inform ants w ho may have unsavory back­
grounds.

Powerful earthquake shakes 
island of Sumatra, Indonesia

JAKARTA, Indonesia — A pow erful earth­
quake rocked the island of Sumatra, followed by 
a series of strong aftershocks, causing w ide­
spread dam age and at least three deaths, seis­
mologists said Monday.

I he 

Indonesian M eteorological 

and 
Geophysical Service said the quake, m easuring 
7.3, hit at 11:29 p.m. Sunday and was centered 
beneath the Indian Ocean, about 400 miles 
n o rth w est of Jakarta. The U.S. G eological 
Survey in Golden, Colo, reported the earth­
quake's strength at 7.9.

At least three people were killed on the island 
of Sum atra by falling debris, Indonesia's official 
A ntara news agency said.

The report said the death toll was expected to 
rise as v o lunteers and em ergency w orkers 
search ruined buildings. M any more people had 

' been reported injured in dem olished houses.

Bengkulu, 70 miles northeast of the quake's 
epicenter, appeared to be the most dam aged 
town.

Doctors treated injured people in the open 
because they feared aftershocks m ight destroy 
the state hospital, A ntara reported. Dam age had 
also been reported at the airport.

rhe quake, one of the strongest recorded in 
Indonesia in recent years, w as followed by 
series of strong aftershocks that forced thou­
sands to flee their hom es early Monday.

Castro sees support eroding 
for trade embargo

HAVANA — Fidel Castro said Sunday su p ­
port for the 38-year-old trade em bargo against 
C uba w as b eg in n in g 
to "w ear d o w n " as 
American business seeks new markets.

In 

the 
a m eeting w ith m em bers of 
Congressional Black Caucus, Castro suggested 
Cuba could extend a free medical training pro­
gram to poor A m erican students w ho w ould 
return home to practice in poor regions.

Castro, 73, w ho has ruled his island nation for 
41 years, said he found hope in recent congres­
sional moves to lift restrictions on U.S. sales of 
food and medicine to Cuba.

The caucus, 36 voting black H ouse members, 
has long su pported lifting the trade sanctions. 
Irt recent m onths, som e Republicans and busi­
ness groups have joined them in seeking to open 
new markets. The vice president of the U.S. 
Cham ber of Com m erce visited last week.

The m edical training offer came after Rep. 
Bennie Thom pson, D-Miss., said parts of his 
Mississippi delta district have so few medical 
personnel and facilities that its infant m ortality 
rate is second in the United States, behind 
Washington, D.C.

Nader says American Indian 
activist his running mate

WASHINGTON —Green Party presidential 
hopeful Ralph Nader said Sunday that American 
Indian activist Winona LaDuke will again be his 
vice presidential running mate.

I^aDuke, 40, is a Harvard graduate from the 
White Earth Indian Reservation in northwestern 
Minnesota. A farmer and author, she started the 
White Earth Land Recovery Project 10 years ago and 
is known for her work recovering lands taken from 
Minnesota's Objibway tribe.

The two were a ticket in the 19% presidential 
campaign when the longtime consumer activist 
received less than 1 percent of the vote.
Nader, 66, entered the race in February promising 
to end what he says is corporate control of govern­
ment.

Where’s Pet of the Week?

I am writing to protest a gross injustice 
being perpetrated on the readers of The 
Daily Texan.

Last fall, a d u o of brave men began 
something, som ething very special, that

people still talk of to this day. I am refer­
ring to the h u m a n ita ria n en d e av o rs of 
myself and Roberto Rivera. Together, w e 
founded and sustained The Daily Texan 
Pet of the Week for an entire semester, 
despite fierce opp ositio n from the m a n ­
aging editor of the p a p e r a n d a very vocal 
minority of Texan staffers who, by their 
ow n admission, hated p u p p ie s a n d kit­
ties.

After o u r collective d e p a rtu re from The 
Texan, however, w e passed o u r m antles 
on to tw o p h o to g rap h e rs that w e felt 
w ere w orth y to ch a m p io n o u r cause. But 
like so m any o the rs w h o fum bled their 
tou c h d o w n pass from the quarterback 
that is greatness, these tw o fell short of 
their goal. They let the boorish naysayers 
at The Texan defeat them an d crush their 
will to help the less fortunate felines and 
canines.

In the few m o n th s that w e oversaw the 
Pet of the Week feature, w e enlisted the 
help of UT celebrities Parisa Fatehi, for­
m er stu d e n t g o v ern m e n t president, and 
the 
Larry Faulkner, 
University. We also started the m ost p o p ­

p r e s id e n t 

of 

ra n 

ular comic strip since Nutty, the Kitten 
w ith Testicles for Legs. This little strip, 
thrice, w a s called 
w h ic h only 
A stro tu rf s Follies, after POTW's beloved 
m ascot, A stro turf. H e w a s n a m e d 
"A stroturf" in one of the m ost thrilling 
stu d e n t elections ever. H eld in October, 
the contest inspired every single UT s tu ­
d e n t to vote. A stroturf's namer, M argaret 
Boren, w o n the chance to pose w ith a Pet 
of the Week, and that experience led her 
to a d o p t tw o kitties of her own.

I w o u ld like to call on current Texan 
staff m e m bers to pick u p and d u s t off 
POTW, a n d to give ho p e to p u p p ie s an d

Jamaica to enter info age
Technology institute hopes to improve nation’s economy

By The Associated Press

MONTEGO BAY, jamaica — In 
this resort town known for white 
sand, rum punch and 
laid-back 
depressed 
ways, 
Jamaica is hustling to carve out a 
niche in the boom ing cyberspace 
world.

economically 

A new school — believed the first 
of its kind in the Caribbean — is 
training Jamaicans in the intricacies 
of computer software.

Aware that a shortage of software 
specialists in the United States helped 
create program m ing industries in 
places like India and Israel, 
the 
Caribbean Institute of Technology is 
trying to do the same for Jamaica.

"This is the future: not mining or 
farming, but 
said 
Carlington Duncan, 21, who graduat­
ed with the school's first class, in 
December.

com puters," 

The institute is a joint project of 
Indusa, an Atlanta-based software 
services company, the Jamaican gov­
ernm ent, Furm an U niversity 
in 
Greenville, South Carolina, a consor­
tium of British schools and govern­
ment agencies, and the University of 
the West Indies.

James Ram, founder of Indusa and 
the driving force behind the school, 
said Jamaica has several selling 
points that could help the island 
attract high tech businesses.

Wages are low and Jamaicans

speak English, the language of com ­
puting, he noted. The island also 
shares a time zone with the eastern 
United States, and its resort infra­
structure makes it an appealing place 
for a U.S. firm to send executives and 
trainers.

The governm ent is seeking invest­
ment in the lower end of the informa­
tion industry through the construc­
tion of two high-tech office parks to 
house international phone centers 
and data-processing operations.

Software programming companies 
also could fit in — "if we can gener­
ate enough programmers in the com ­
ing years," said Erroll Hewitt, advis­
er to Phillip Paulwell, minister for 
industry, commerce and technology.

Former professor receives 
distinction from APS

A UT professor em eritus w as 
elected to the Social Sciences Division 
of the American Philosophical Society, 
one of the nation's first academic soci­
eties. Alfred Crosby, a history profes­
sor who ended his 22-year career at 
the University in 1999, learned in May 
that he w ould become a member of 
the society started by Benjamin 
Franklin in 1743.

"I'm honored to have something 
like this happen to me at the end of 
my career," said Crosby, an environ­
mental and world history specialist.

The mem bership is composed of 
more than 700 members from around 
the world, 85 percent of w hom live in 
the United States. During the 20th 
century, 200 members received the 
Nobel Prize.

Based in Philadelphia, the m em ber­
ship publishes several scholarly jour­
nals, including American History & 
Culture and History of Philosophy.

Crosby, w ho received his doctorate 
from Boston University, will partici­
pate in his first society meeting in 
November. Members, w ho are elected 
to the society for life, may present 
papers and discuss those topics at the 
biannual meetings.

O ther m em bers of the society 
include Allen Greenspan, chairman of 
the Federal Reserve, and N elson 
Mandela, former president of South 
Africa.

By involving themselves with the 
program, corporations may increase 
their cam pus exposure through the 
C om puter Science Spring O pen 
H ouse and other events that may 
bring them higher visibility among 
com puter science students, he said.

"FoCS is a foundation to support 
the tremendous grow th of our depart­
ment as well as to serve as a vehicle to 
sustain our expanding interactions 
with industry," said Thomas.

National Instruments, a hardware 
and software m anufacturing compa­
ny, joined the program last year and 
has benefited from its exposure to the 
University, said Mark Finger, vice 
president for hum an resources. The 
company is one of the FoCS's newest 
members and contributes $15,000 in 
annual dues to the program to work 
with and recruit UT students and fac­
ulty.

"UT is a critical, critical school for 
us," said Finger. "As we take a look at 
the graduates w e've gained from UT, 
this is our chance to give something 
back."

The UT Departm ent of Com puter

Low-income students could 
benefit from scholarships

Four-hundred thousand dollars in scholarship 
money will be awarded to underpri\ileged urban 
Texas students seeking a college education.

Created in 1995 by State Rep. Yvonne Davis, D- 
Dallas, the scholarship fund will benefit those who 
might not otherwise be able to attend a college.

Students who benefit from one of the 300 to 350 
scholarships must be full-time undergraduates who 
demonstrate financial need and are in good standing 
in one of Texas' accredited public or private nonprof­
it technical colleges.

The Texas Association of Developing Colleges, a 
Dallas higher education consortium that administers 
the program, initiated it during the 74th Legislative 
Session as part of a house bill.

Davis created the Urban Scholarship Fund in 1995 
by creating a pool of money that came from 
unclaimed telephone service deposits.

While that money is shifted into the scholarship 
fund, local telephone companies will still reimburse 
consumers for properly claimed deposits.

Students from non-metropolitan areas of the state 
may benefit from scholarships through the Rural 
Scholarship Fund.

TAAS scores improve for 
magnet school students

Students w'ho are not in specialized areas of Austin 
Independent School District magnet campuses 
improved in several areas of the Texas Academic 
Assessment Skills test, narrowing the gap between 
themselves and students in advanced programs.

Dunng the past two years, passing rates in reading 
mathematics and writing among non-magnet stu­
dents in magnet schools,have improved gradually.

AISD Supenntendent Pat Forgione said results 
clearly improved this year. Forgione said the success 
can be attributed to hard work by those in nonmag­
net classes at magnet schools, w'hich include LBJ High 
School, Johnston High School and Kealing Junior 
High School.

“These results tell us quite clearly that nonmagnet 
teachers and students worked very hard to improve 
mastery of the important skills tested through 
TAAS," Foigione said.

Forgione said the results, though promising also 
show ed that harder work is needed in nonmagnet 
classes.

Rains bring floods

Weekend deluge in 
North Texas causes 
families to evacuate

By The Associated Press

DALLAS — Storms barreling across North Texas 
this weekend dum ped more than half a foot of rain in 
several areas — including an estimated 15 inches in an 
isolated area of Parker County — driving people from 
their homes, flooding roadways and contributing to at 
least three deaths.

"It has been a w'hile since I've seen this," National 
Weather Service meteorologist Roland Nunez said 
Sunday, adding that storm systems stretched from

Hamilton 130 miles northw'est to Terrell and from 
Bowie 150 miles southeast to Coleman.

The hardest hit areas appeared to be Parker County, 
where radar estimates showed as much as 8 inches had 
fallen over a 12-hour period from Saturday evening to 
Sunday; Johnson County, w'hich had reports of more 
than 7 inches, including 7.6 inches in Joshua; and 
Tarrant and Burleson counties, which reported as much 
as 6 inches of precipitation, weather officials said.

A flash flood watch remained in effect for North 

Texas through Sunday night.

Hooding kept the 12-person volunteer fire company 
in Joshua up all night, said firefighter Cindy 
Klopfenstein.

"Our assistant chief, who has been here forever and a 
day, said he has never seen flooding like this in Joshua. 
It came on quite rapidly," Klopfenstein said.

It was over before it even started.
For the first time ever at Disch-Falk Field, 
Beau Hale took the mound with a lead before 
throwing a single pitch. Texas was the visit­
ing team in game two of die Super Regional 
versus Penn State, and the Longhorns had 
scored three runs in the top of the first.

Checkmate.
Hale, Texas' star flamethrower, instantly 
had something that was missing in three of 
his last four starts — run support. As Hale 
stepped on the mound to face the number 
one hitting team in the country, he already 
has a three-run cushion to work with. And 
that would be more than enough.

"That was a big confidence builder," 
Hale said. "In this type of big game, getting 
three runs of support in the first inning is a 
huge chip off your shoulder."

Finally, some runs for Hale

Hale had actually lost three of his last 
four starts, but none were because of his 
own performance. Hale was on the wrong 
end of losses by scores of 4-0,3-2 and 3-1 in 
May.

However, run support wras not to be a 
problem on this night, as the Longhorn 
attack pounded out 13 hits en route to their 
highest run outburst at home since scoring 
16 against Oklahoma State on March 26, a 
stretch of 14 home games.

Hale has no reason to lack confidence. 
After winning only two games in his first 
tw'o years at Texas, Hale exploded onto the 
national scene with a season that will see 
him drafted in the first round of this 
month's major league draft.

On the year Hale is 12-5 with a 2.78 eamed- 
run average, 125 strikeouts in 1392 innings, 
and eight complete games, including a no-hit­
ter against Sam Houston State in February.

But he may have saved his best perform­
ance of all for when Texas needed it the most.
Over 7,500 rabid Texas fans sensed a trip 
to the College World Series was very proba­
ble after seeing the Longhorns put off a three- 
spot in the first, and all but assured after 
doubling the lead to 6-0 after two frames. 
Hale wTas not about to disappoint them.

Hale not only held the lead, he dominat­
ed the supposed mighty Nittany Lion bats. 
Twelve Penn State batters went dowm 
swinging six in the last three innings as 
Hale completed his gem. Hale allowed onlv 
three hits in the game; only two runners 
reached third base, and only two others 
even reached second.

Penn State never had a chance.

Early and often

Texas got off to quick starts in both games 
of the series, leading 5-0 after three innings 
on Friday before Saturday's 6-0 two-inning 
advantage. The momentum gained by 
these fast starts was equally motivating for 
Texas and demoralizing for Penn State.

' The tiling I am the most sorrv about was 
getting behind early and not being able to 
recover," acting Penn State coach Randy 
Ford said. "You can't get that far behind 
against pitching like that."

Penn State's batters also felt the mental 
pressure of having to battle back against 
Texas' talented pitching staff. Leadoff-man 
Michael Campo, who entered the series hit­
ting .344 and riding a 41-game hit streak, 
struggled incredibly

"It is tough mentally being down so 

quickly," Campo said.

Texas pitchers D.J. Jones, Ray Clark and 
Hale were able to do something no one had 
done since March 24, as Campo went O-for-8 
in die series to end his college career with two 
hidess games after such a long hitting steak.

Over the two games, the Nittany Lions 
hit .203 as a team, a far cry from their .344 
they came into the series hitting.

Ford attributed Penn State's poor start on 
Friday to the crow'd noise and nerves of his 
team, and Saturday's starter Dan Goebeler 
admitted he was also nervous during the 
first inning on Saturday. Texas is now a 
dominating 30-3 when scoring first.

And for an encore ...

Having wron its last five games, Texas is 
riding incredible momentum heading into 
Omaha. So, can the Longhorns win it all?

Texas can beat anyone anytime Hale has 
the ball in his hands, and w hen the Long­
horns seize momentum by scoring first, 
they are extremely tough to beat.

Rosenblatt Stadium in Omaha is known 
as a hitter-friqpdly park, but Texas is as 
strong in pitching as anyone.

'Texas will run into good pitching in 

Omaha," Ford said.

No, other teams will run into Texas' arms. 
And if those arms get m n support, like they 
did this weekend, another banner could 
very well be hung on the Disch-Falk Field 
outfield walls in less than two weeks.

The Texas baseball team su bm erg es in a dog pile following its 10-0 victory over Penn State on Saturday night. The Horns will play LSU in the first gam e of the College W orld Series.

Houser, Texas living a dream by getting to CWS

By Chris Houser

As told to Damien Pierce, DT Staff

Chris Houser is the starting third 
baseman fo r the Texas baseball team, 
and the article that follows is the first 
o f a series o f player diaries to be print­
ed in the Texan as the Horns head to 
the College World Series.

This is an absolutely unbeliev­

able feeling that 1 have right 
now.

When you start the season, your 
goal is to be where we're going so 
there aren't really any words to 
describe that feeling. All you have 
is 
that you go 
through when that last pitch is 
made, and that final out is made.

this sensation 

I'll remember that last out for the 

rest of my life.

I was at third, and from there you 
don't have the luxury of standing 
behind the pitcher and seeing the 
pitch. I'm just basically looking at

the batter and I 
the pitch 
see 
through 
my 
p e r i p h e r a l 
vision.

So actually, I 
don't 
even 
know if that guv 
sw'ung or not.
But I saw Beau 
to 
drop 
ground, 
that's when that 
feeling started. Penn St.
You don't know what's going on, 
but it's just one of those amazing 
feelings.

the Chris Houser:
and w as 2-for-5

^ RBIs vs.

It's truly unbelievable.
You know you're going, but vou 
don't know how to feel because 
you have never gone before.

In the game, we were able to get 
some runs up on the board earlv for 
Beau Hale, and I think that really 
allowred him to relax and do his job.
Beau did a great job, and he 
wrorks fast so you don't have any

problem of sitting back and waiting 
on your heels. Some guys are 
finesse-type guys that take their 
time, but Beau is a fire-baller and 
he's always ready to throw' that 
next pitch. It's always bang, bang, 
bang when he's on the mound.

He allows you to stay on your 
toes and not get lazy on defense, so 
I really can't say enough about him. 
He's a great pitcher, one of the best 
I've seen.

Then, there's Clark Todd.
He busted his butt for the two 
years that I've been here, and then 
the first at-bat of the season he gets 
is in front of 8,000 fans and he hits 
a home run.

It means so much to us as players 
because we go in day in and day 
out together, and we do w'hat we 
do through the whole year in prac­
tice together.

So all of us know the effort that 
Clark puts in, so it was really spe­
cial for us to see him do that.

As for me, I really didn't have too

good of a night on Friday, so I 
wanted to come out here and get 
off on the right foot. 
I singled on 
my first two at-bats for RBIs and 
my next two at-bats I felt like I hit 
the ball hard, but the shortstop laid 
out for one of them to throw me 
out, and then I hit a line drive to 
him the next time.

But personally, I couldn't be hap­
pier about my performance. I felt 
like I was able to contribute, and 
that is especially more meaningful 
to do that at this point in the year, 
playing my last game at Disch-Falk 
Field in front of these great fans at 
Texas.

The only unfortunate thing in the 
game that happened was that I got 
a cut on my nose from sliding into 
home plate, and it turned out there 
wasn't going to be a play at the 
plate.

I dove head first to slide around 
the catcher, and I didn't have any 
vantage point of the ball so I fig­
ured I should slide. I tried to keep

my head up, but the bill of my hat 
caught the ground, and it came 
down to crush my nose.

I had m ixed em otions about 
whether it felt good or not because 
I did score. That part o f it felt great. 
But then I got to the dugout and the 
guys told me I really didn't need to 
slide so I could have gone without 
hearing that.

But it was good to go out with a 
bang, and of course, the only thing 
that really matters is that we won.

And it was an exhilarating win at 

that.

The same emotion on the field 
carried into the locker room after­
wards, and none of us knew' what 
to say because we were so fired up. 
The biggest thing is that you know' 
w'hat it has taken the w'hole year to 
get where you are at, and no one 
can share that with you. It w'as 
amazing, and I can't wait to get to 
Omaha.

I wish it wras tomorrow.

Gossett, Horns close, but no cigar

B y Dam ien Pierce
Daily Texan Staff

It just wasn't meant to be.
David Gossett and the No. 14 
Texas m en's golf team came up 
short in their pursuit of national 
titles Saturday at 
the Grand 
National Golf Course in Opelika, 
Ala. The U.S. Amateur champion 
finished in a three-way tie for third 
among individual performers at 
13-under 272, while the squad 
ended up in fifth at 27-under 
1,125.

Gossett began the fourth and 
final round three strokes off of the 
leader, Oklahoma State's Charles 
Howell, but he fired a four-over- 
par 76 to lose pace. Howell, who 
the 
helped his Cow boys win 
national team crown, went on to 
win the NCAA individual title as 
well with a 23-under 265, the best 
performance ever recorded by an 
individual at the NCAA Champi­
onships.

"Obviously when you come 
into a round in the hunt for a

national title, you're not going to 
be happy shooting a 76," Gossett 
said. "1 missed some opportunities 
early and then had a tough stretch 
of holes at eight (three-putt for 
bogey) and nine (double-bogey). 
But I'm probably more disap­
pointed for our team, because we 
played some outstanding golf as a 
team over the first three days and 
put ourselves in position to win."

The Longhorns entered the final 
round of golf only three strokes off 
of the lead, but ended up nine

shots back when the last scores 
were posted. Oklahoma State and 
Georgia Tech turned in cards of 36- 
under 1,116 to break the NCAA 
cham pionship 
two 
shots, but the Cowboys went on to 
take the crown after a one-hole 
playoff.

For Texas, it was the 25th time 
that the Horns had finished in the 
top 10, and 14th time that they fin­
ished in the top five.

Track teams unable to gamer titles

for 

this 

time 

There would be no last-second 
the Texas 
dram a 
women's track* team after w'inning 
the past two outdoor national titles in 
the final event. They w'ere going to be 
dethroned as champs, but at least 
they had some time to accept their 
defeat.

Action began Saturday in what 
would be an omen for the day. Texas 
began competition with an outside 
chance of winning its third straight 
team title, but in the first event, the 
100-m eter dash, Lakeesha W hite 
earned only one point by virtue of

finishing eighth. White's time of 11.65 
was her wrorst of the season, and 
slowest of the finals.

One hour later, in the 200-meters, 
W hite suffered a hamstring injury 
and wras unable to finish the race. 
Freshman Aleah Williams, who was 
also running in the 200, finished 
sixth. Texas suffered a third last-place 
finish on the day when Erin Sims fin­
ished 12th in the 1,500 meters.

Texas even came up short in the 
4x400 meter relay, an event they had 
won four straight years. South Caroli­
na defeated Texas, who finished sec­
ond, after an earlier disqualification 
of the Gamecocks was overturned.

The Longhorns ended the meet

w ith 39 points, good for fifth place. 
LSU, which had wron eight consecu­
tive titles before Texas claimed the 
last two, regained the top spot with 
58 points.

"Obviously I’m disappointed wuth 
the outcom e of the m eet," Texas 
coach Beverly K earney said. 
"I 
thought we w ould com e out and 
fight harder than we did."

On the year, Texas failed to w in a 
conference or national title for the 
first time since 1984.

"We need to remember w'hat it feels 
like to go through an entire season 
w ithout w inning a conference or 
national cham p ionship ," Kearney

Off his Rocker again

Braves closer threatens iSI’ writer before game

By The Associated Press
ATLANTA — John Rocker 

could be in trouble again.

The em battled Braves reliever 
had a confrontation Sunday w ith 
the Sports Illustrated rep o rter 
w ho w rote the story in which 
Rocker m ade offensive com ­
m ents about gays, m inorities, 
im m igrants and his ow n team ­
mates.

The reporter, Jeff Pearlm an, 
said Rocker threatened him , 
though there was no physical 
contact betw een the two. The 
Braves said they were investigat­
ing and team m ate Brian Jordan 
called Rocker a "cancer."

"I'm am azed he hasn't han­
dled him self the right way," said 
Jordan, one of the leaders in the 
clubhouse. "Geez, if the guy has 
nine lives, h e's using them up 
pretty good."

"You've got one guy being a 
cancer time and time again," the 
outfielder said. "Eventually, it's

going to have an effect on the 
team. Hopefully, he'll change."

Pearlman, in A tlanta to do a 
story on the Braves m eeting the 
N ew York Yankees in a rematch 
of last y ear's W orld Series, had a 
chance m eeting w ith Rocker in a 
service tunnel beneath Turner 
Field about tw o h ours before the 
final gam e of the series.

According to Pearlm an, Rock­
er m ade threatening com m ents 
such as, "This isn't over betw een 
us," and, "Do you know w hat I 
can do to you?"

The 

lasted 
confrontation 
about tw o m inutes and becam e 
so heated that Rocker flipped 
around the bill of his cap so he 
could get face-to-face w ith the 
reporter.

"I w as scared," Pearlm an said. 

"But he d id n 't do anything."

Rocker attem pted to get Pearl­
m an b anned from 
the club­
house. The Braves stressed that 
he w as allow ed the sam e access

as any other reporter.

"We are aw are that there was 
an incident," general m anager 
John Schuerholz said in a state­
ment. "We im m ediately began to 
ad d re ss the m a tte r internally 
and are continuing to do so. We 
respect the rights of Jeff, as a 
legitim ate m em ber of the media, 
,to cover the Braves in general 
and this series against the N ew 
York Yankees in particular. We 
will do everything in our pow er 
to insure that sim ilar incidents 
do not occur in the future."

Apparently, no other Braves 

players saw the confrontation.

"Obviously, there are som e sit­
uations w here John feels he has 
to stand u p for himself," Chip­
per Jones said. "I've heard him 
say tim e and tim e again that he 
feels like he w as m isrepresented 
in that article.

"Obviously, he still has issues 
w ith the guy w ho wrote the arti­
cle."

John Rocker told 5 / w riter Jeff P earlm an, “ Do you know what I can do to you?”

by Matt Anthony Wilson
Daily Texan Staff 

Because of its very subject matter, this doc­
umentary — a piece spotlighting Annabel 
Chong, the trendsetting pom star who was 
first to have what amounts to a sex-a-thon 
(251 times in 10 hours) — Sex: The Annabel 
Chong Story is bound to haze a rabidly dwid- 
ed audience. In that vein, 1 created Jenna, a 
female pom enthusiast from Austin, and 
Hou'ie, a women's studies major from Boston 
University to help me talk about and review 
the picture.

MATT: I heard the buzz from Sundance 
about this film and truthfully w as expect­
ing more of an investigative approach to 
the kind of person that would do this.

HOWIE: I hadn't heard anything about 
this film. It strikes me as odd subject m at­
ter for a kind of feminist, or even post- 
feminist statement — but I w ent in with 
an open mind.

JENNA: I just wanted to see som e pom 

on the big screen.

MATT: O f course, this was much more 
than a "big screen blue m ovie." But do 
you think the.film accomplished what it 
set out to do?

JENNA: W hich was?
HOWIE: Clearly the goal w as to show 
the ambivalence that impels a woman to 
do this, and it's important that this is a 
woman— as it's pointed out in the film. If 
a guy did this "h e would be a stud," but a 
woman would just be considered a "slut." 
Though her ideas about doing something 
to further the liberation of women was 
pathetically sad. If anything she's setting 
us, or rather women, back because she is 
such a ditzy spokesperson.

JENNA: But she's smart, her professor 
said she writes really well. She just does­
n't articulate herself verbally very well.
MATT: The film doesn't judge her. 
I 
liked that it didn't seem to filter the infor­
mation, 
it lets the audience think for 
themselves.

JENNA: W hat about all that whah- 
whah sympathy stuff? About her family?
fam ily 
dynamic and why that was so important, 
you should have a basic understanding of

MATT: To understand

Chinese culture. The film didn't convey 
that very well.

JENNA: Hey! Back to the pom — I was 
surprised they could show so much and

yet maintain some restraint.

MATT: The editing of the sex scenes 
was really impressive, even if it got a bit 
choppy towards the end. The interlacing 
of the footage from her "accom plishm ent" 
matched the progression of the story and 
character. The fact that the film kept 
returning to this footage reminds the audi­
ence that sadlv, this will probably be the 
only so-called accom plishm ent Grace 
Quek, otherw ise know n as Annabel 
Chong, m ay ever have.

H O W IE: I found it interesting that 
almost every shot was a close-up, or what 
did you call it?

MATT: Extrem e close-up. 

It really

aptly titled film, World's Biggest Gangbang.

close-ups. And I have just tvyo more 
words to say about this film : Ron Jeremy.

HOW IE: W ho?
JE N N A : H e's a porn g od , h e's the one 
that em ceed the A n n abel C h ong video, 
he ...

H O W IE: H e's really ugly. And so was 
this film frankly. 
It w as an interesting 
conversation piece, but the m ovie ended 
up pissing me off m ore than anything 
else, and those p o m clips got real old, real 
fast.

MATT: I think I am m ore enam ored 
with the way this film w as done, and the 
things it was trying to do, than what it 
actually did. I w as also frustrated that it 
didn't explore her other "id en tity " more, 
and in this kind of character study, play 
up the w ay that this is ultim ately the por­
trait of a wom an who, sadly, sim ply grav­
itates to w herever she is accepted.
