The tw o also endorsed a plan to bolster h igher education enrollment, but offered differ­ ent avenues to do so.

"It's disgustingly am using," said attorney Trum an Dean, w ho represented Julius. "We d id n 't expect to win. I just can't even im agine that they d o n 't p ut up the pretense of fairness and objectivity." Julius requested the hearing, which took place Tuesdav and Thursday, to appeal her Septem ber 2002 term ination. Julius w as fired for requesting a $200 loan from a UT em ployee for w hom she was providing services, said Esther Hajdar, attorney for the UT System Office of General Counsel. Julius, w ho is black, claims she w as term inated because of her race and activism on behalf of blacks and other minorities, said Robert Jackson, organiza­ tional and grievance specialist for the Texas Faculty Association and representative for Julius. The hearing ended w hen hearing officer Marla M artinez, assistant vice president for UT Employee and C am pus Services, ruled that testim ony related to disparate treatm ent of UT em ployees before 1997 or outside of h um an resources w as irrelevant. "There is a problem of racism at the U niversity of Texas. It doesn't m atter w hat departm ent you're in. It's p art of a bigger picture," Jackson said. Julius' representatives did not understand the scope of the hearing, H ajdar said. "It is not a forum to address all university-w ide incidents that m ay occur, because there w ould be no limit to how far w e w ould go," H ajdar said.

The UT System must give clas- sifu*d employees notice of intent to terminate and an opportunity to appeal. If a decision is made to fire, staff may request an appeal hearing, said Kyle Cavanaugh, human resources director.

This week Texan' talks with UT activist Jordan Buckley broadcast and people got to see it in their living rooms. Plus, com­ munication betw een progres­ sives is a lot easier today, but we still have a long way to go.

She was not shown the letter her accuser sent to Cavanaugh when informed of the University's intent to terminate her and when asked to rebut the allega­ tions. “Our concern was that the alleged complainant would not be present at the hearing so that we could question her on the allega­ tions that she made," Jackson said. The University does not have subpoena authority over any individual, Hajdar said. “[Julius] was provided a detailed summary of what the allegations were," Hajdar said. Julius will file a complaint with the Equal Employment Oppor­ tunity Commission, which can make a favorable or unfavorable ruling or issue a right-to-sue let­ ter, Jackson said.

Forty rebels, including women who claimed to be widows of ethnic insurgents, stormed the theater just before the second act of a popular musical at 9:05 p.m. Wednesday. The woman, shot in the chest, was the only known fatality of the hostage-tahng as it moved into its second day. Victims of Iraqis invasion in Kuwait receive funds GENEVA — The United Nations panel overseeing com­ pensation to victims of Iraq’s invasion of Kuwait released $469 million Thursday, with the majority going to claimants in Kuwait. The U.N. Compensation Commission, which distributes funds received from the Security Council-supervised oil- for-food program, said it was handing over the installment for distribuí inn to 708 claimants already approved by the panel. The amount set aside for Kuwait in the periodic pay­ ment is $350 m illion, with money going to individuals, corporations and the gov­ ernment itself. Terrorist groups blamed for Indonesian explosion JAKARTA, Indonesia — An explosive device blew up at a shopping mall and injured two people Thursday, worsening jit­ ters in Indonesia, while the world moved to isolate a Southeast Asian terror group allied to al Qaida that is sus­ pected in the deadly Bali bomo- ings. Australia said 47 nations back its campaign to get the U.N. Security Council to declare Jemaah Isiamiyah a terrorist organization, and Britain banned the group and ordered its bank accounts frozen. The U.S. State Department added Jemaah Isiamiyah to its list of terrorist groups on Wednesday, thus freezing its assets, making it a crime to con­ tribute funds and barring mem­ bers from traveling to the United States.

Muhammad spoke little during the 10-minute hearing. When Gesner asked if he understood the charge, he quietly answered, "Yes, ma'am." M alvo is considered by the court to be a juvenile, and all of his proceedings are closed. Police said he was being held as a mate­ rial witness, pending charges and they did not identify him. A law enforcement official, speak­ ing on condition of anonvmity, out­ lined developments that led to the arrests: On Thursday, Oct. 17, a Montgomery County, M d„ pub­ lic information off icer received a call from someone they now believe was the sniper. The caller referred to a robbery-homicide in "M ontgom ery" — not, in itself, enough to prompt authorities to call police in that Alabama city. The next day, a priest received a call from someone who men­ tioned a crime in Montgomery, Ala. It's unclear if the caller referred to the sniper killings, but the conversation prompted the priest to call the hotline. Police put the two calls together. Evidence from a Sept. 21 rob- bery attempt outside a liquor in Montgomery, which store killed one employee and wound­ ed another, then led police to M alvo and Muhammad. But who were these two, and why might they have unleashed terror on Maryland, Virginia and the District of Columbia? Muhammad, a veteran of the G ulf War, converted to Islam, according to The Seattle Times. M alvo is a citizen of Jamaica. The Times quoted federal sources as saying the two had been known ^to speak sympathetically of the hijackers who attacked the World Trade Center and the Pentagon.

Government has $159 billion deficit in past fiscal year WASHINGTON — The government ran a $159 billion deficit in the fis cal year just ended, the Bush administration said Thursday, punc tuating one of the federal budget’s worst nosedives ever just 12 days before elections for control of Congress. The figure was not a surprise and largely reflected an ongoing shortfall in federal revenue collections.

CUSTER C O R N Y N : John C o m y n did his best in W ednesday's debate to kx)k as un-Republican as possible, tout­ ing the fact that he was the best candidate for the people o f Texas. H e especially harped on his record of recovering child support from deadbeat cfads and his asking the Suprem e C ourt to overturn a death penalty conviction because the prosecutor in the case used the defendant's race as an indicator of an increased likelihood for recidivism . But the Tigua Indians of West Texas and the Alabama- Coushatta Indians of East Texas m ight have a thing or tw o to say about C om yn's penchant for the everym an. Both tribes had hum ble but m eager casinos on their reservations that C om yn shut down. W hen the lig u as and Alabam a-Coushattas became federally recognized tribes in 1987, they signed a pact that said they w ould not participate in any gam bling activities prohibited b y the state. In 1991, Texas introduced a statew ide lottery, and soon horse and greyhound tracks sprung up around Texas with the return of parim utuel betting. In 1993, the Tiguas opened their Speaking Rock Casino, w h ich w as bringing in an estimated $60 m illion per year for the tribe u n til it w as shut d ow n earlier this year. The Alabam a- Coushattas opened their gam ing center in 2001. It was shut dow n nine months later. The Speaking Rock Casino was operated unmolested by g o v­ ernm ental intrusion until C om yn took office in 1999. It was then w hen C om yn m ade his stand, taking the Tiguas to federal court in w hat was eventu ally a successful attem pt at taking aw ay the tribes best route to self-sufficiency. N ot content w ith m ining a major financial source for one tribe, C ornyn went after the Alabam a-Coushattas late last year. The Alabam a-Coushattas made the same argum ents as the Tiguas, m aintaining that since Texas either ran or sanctioned a variety of gam bling activities, a semi-autonomous body like an Indian tribe also had the right to run a gam bling enterprise. The feds again disagreed, and the gam ing center closed in July. G am ing center em ployees continued to receive benefits after it closed, hut the health insurance and salaries that they received jn d today. Both tribes used their casinos as a path to econom ic self-sufficiency, but Com yn, ever the m oral crusader, chose to take them to court and perpetuate a cycle o f dependency that has been going on since Indians began being pushed onto reser­ vations in the 18(X)s. Before voters get the idea that Com yn is for the common man and helping out the little guy, they should consider his actions in prosecuting — and persecuting — Texas' most ovérlooked m inorities. ...

I am also against any Student Government resolution support­ ing or opposing war. SG passed this resolution condemning an attack, and those of us opposed to the war will now be able to use UT — an educational institu­ tion — as a pulpit in order to further a political cause, which I think Is wrong, despite the decency of this cause. Anyone interested in doing so can point to the “largest university in the country1’ and claim that Bush’s old backyard doesn’t support his endeavor. But the UT student body doesn’t speak with one voice against war (as SG might suggest to outsiders) any more than the U.S. speaks with one voice supporting war (as Bush might suggest to outsiders). SG must make their decisions based not only in the best inter­ ests of their "constituents,” but with the assumption that this decision will be heard by prospective students, parents, alumni and benefactors in addi­ tion to their intended political targets. And with these people in mind, I contend that SG should consider any unintended consequences of their well- meaning “resolution.’’ I think stu­ dents at UT should call their . congressmen, write letters, protest, and hold rallies concern­ ing their opinions on Iraq. But I don’t think anyone has the right to use our institution and its size as evidence of public opin­ ion. Perhaps SG should think twice next time about giving an opinion for the sake of giving an opinion. Nick Haby Communication studies senior Where were you? To all the folks that wrote to the Firing Line against the passage of SG resolution AR 10: Where were you on Tuesday night when people with common sense were outnumbered by hip­ pies, communists, socialists and anarchists? Thomas Nagelmeyer Undeclared freshman Consider a counter-resolution Whereas: SG should be applaud­ ed for fostering campus debate. Whereas: SG has nonetheless overstepped the boundaries of serving as representatives only to the Texas Legislature and the Board of Regents as outlined in its own Mission Statement. Whereas: SG representatives nei­ ther campaigned nor were elected on their individual political ideology but on their commitment to stu- dent-University relations alone. Whereas: Two independent stu­ dent polls were ignored, including one on the SG Web site, that show the majority of students actually favor some sort of military action against Iraq. Whereas: The appropriate stu­ dent organizations representing a diverse spectrum of views were not consulted for their input on the resolution. Whereas: SG ignored the opinion of the majority in favor of caving in to a vocal minority. Whereas: A University’s reputa­ tion as a gathering place for an eclectic range of views void of any pressure of conformity to an offi­ cial position has been violated. Whereas: If students wanted to discuss the possible United States War in Iraq, they should have debated the congressional resolu­ tion authorizing the president to use force against Saddam Hussein's regime instead of attempting to speak on behalf of a politically diverse student body. Therefore, be it resolved that: 20 members of SG have unjustly assumed the responsibility of speaking on behalf of thousands of students concerning a matter in which they were not elected to rep­ resent students. Consequently. AR 10 should be immediately repealed and the 20 members of SG who approved it should issue public apologies for infringing upon the rights of their constituents. Austin Kinghorn Religious studies sophomore on behalf of The Young Conservatives of Texas Representin' for democracy Of course the recently passed SG resolution asking Bush not to start a war in Iraq isn’t fully representa­ tive. Welcome to American Democracy. Gallup told us in September this year that only 38 percent of Americans supported military action without U.N. con­ sent, and yet Congress recently gave Bush the OK to act militarily if he deems necessary. Freedom of speech is the only tool of defense: of course this resolution isn’t going to directly change things, but it amplifies some very serious con­ cerns that have been expressed about the war on terror. The resolution was covered exten­ sively in the Texan before it was voted on, and it was touted on the West Mall for days, where students were given their representatives’ contacts (hundreds of emails poured in supporting AR 10). If opponents of this resolution really cared at all, they would have come out in numbers to the assembly to show their voices. I commend all those anti-AR 10 folks that did come out to speak. But the fact of the matter is that while their speak­ ers had dwindled to a couple, there were more than a dozen people left waiting to speak in support of the resolution. The most visible opposi­ tion we have seen yet have been the five Firing Lines printed in Thursday’s paper. If you want repre­ sentation, get active. Amy Sommer French/government junior I liked it I have never had so much school spirit as when I saw the headline about the Student Government’s resolution on Iraq. I was on my way to the Co-op and had to restrain myself from buying out their UT sweatshirt supply. It is entirely appropriate that the representa­ tives of the student body weigh in on such matters of general, public concern. Representatives who are concerned that the resolution is too “political” should consider get­ ting involved in some different extracurricular activities. Everything the SG votes on is political. More importantly, to remain silent in the rush to Gulf War II is extremely political. I am grateful to the SG for refusing a position of tacit consent toward the president and his attempt to create a permanent warfare state. Ben Chappell Anthropology graduate student Reports encourage U.S. military hegemony By Leah Caldwell Daily Texan Columnist It goes without saying that most Americans w ant "the good life." And it possible, they might want to live that life without being the detriment to someone else's "good life." The Project for the Ne w Am erican Century, a non-profit organization bent on global domination and support­ ed by such big names as Dick Cheney and Donald Rumsfeld, takes the wishes of so many Americans and distorts them into a doctrine of hatred, jingoism and destruction. These principles and statements go beyond every American's wishes to live long and prosper; instead, they verbal­ ize every intelligible human being's worst nightmares and yet, it's our foreign policy. The organization bases their principles for success on the sen­ sible doctrine of the Reagan administration. It is simple: Raise m ilitary spending to numbers that can't be pronounced by the The document introduces such terms as “full spectrum dominance, ” which details our superiority on land, sea, air and, soon enough, space. human tongue, enforce our so- called values on foreign nations to protect American political and economic interests, and i asta 11 a president that will be no more than a vessel for their beliefs on the domestic front that is w illing to carry out these orders. The organization even claims a Cold W ar victory for the West in their statement of principles. So far the Bush administration, along w ith a little help from friends like New Am erican Century, has been successful in carrying out these commands. Yet as we prepare to attack Iraq, we are tin the precipice of a m on­ umental step in U.S. foreign p oli­ cy. It is a step that is crossing the boundaries of international la w and common decency, a step that only intends to serve the interests of those in power, and it is part of a greater ideology that benefits from keeping the American pub­ lic in fear just waiting for the next terrorist attack. The principles of the N ew American Century are just one of many public documents or state­ ments that present a bleak and militarized outlook for America. Another public document, authored by United States Space is entitled Vision Command, 20/20. The cover page is embla­ zoned with pictures of satellites from space projecting laser beams on rocky terrain w ith little picture inlays of explosions. It is unclear whether one should laugh or be absolutely petrified, but the content of this document shows that these guys are very serious about what they do. In a font and style that mimics the opening credits cut Star Wars, the mission of U.S. Space Command is clearly defined. It says, "U.S. Space Command — dominating the space dimension of military operations to protect U.S. interests and investment. Integrating Space Forces into warfighting capabilities across the full spectrum of conflict." In other words, complete militariza­ tion of space. Enforcing terror is no longer an issue of Earth. Now, it has been expanded to the outer realms of our atmosphere. The document introduces such terms as "fu ll spectrum domi­ nance," which details our m ili­ tary superiority on land, sea, air and, soon enough, space. These measures for destruction and ter­ ror cannot even be justified by claiming domestic defense. It is clear that space domination is another front of American "glob­ al leadership" that w ill be used for intimidation as opposed to homeland security. 'haves' and Vision 20/20 also boasts com­ mentary on some trends of the "w idening future, noting a 'have- between nots.'" After this statement, the document implies that this is the intended state of the world. Change is not desired, and equal­ ity is no longer an issue. In fact, having the world's population in a depraved condition w ill only bring more power to America and give us more leeway to enforce our policies abroad. This statement of Am erica's over­ whelming power indicates that there are no foreign political or m ilitary threats that could defeat American goals, so essentially America has been waging wars against invisible m ilitary super powers. One of the final pages of Vision 20/20 depicts a luminescent laser beam from space pointed at the earth. Is it just a coincidence that the tip of the laser is aimed direct­ ly at Baghdad? Caldwell is a journalism freshman. This one isn't about SG It’s COPS: Campaign 2002. For those without televisions, the latest trick being employed by candidates for office is to show police footage of opposing candidates being pulled over. How tasteless. Ignoring the source of this footage (one can only assume it comes from the police themselves), let’s analyze the two ads that have popped up so far: Governor Perry being pulled over and state Sen. Gonzalo Barrientos performing a field sobriety test. It’s clear what’s happening in the ad showing Governor Perry: the driv­ er of the vehicle (not the governor) was pulled over by an officer, Governor Perry gets out of the car, tries to talk his way out of the tick­ et, and, failing that, uses veiled threats (“Do you KNOW who I am? Do you need MY ID?”) His manner is threatening, his attitude towards a civil servant is atrocious, and he tries to use his position of power to get around the law. The ad showing Senator Barrientos is something else, though. The senator is cooperative. He doesn’t try to get out of the tick­ et; he even pleads no contest, according to the text of the ad. All of this mud-slinging illustrates the fact that nobody’s perfect and everyone has the capacity to break the law. The difference, however, is that one shows a man submitting to the consequences, and the other shows a man trying to avoid them. And before you go accusing me of party affiliation, I happened to have voted for Perry for Lieutenant Governor with the belief that Bush was going to run for president, and Perry would get promoted. I did vote for him, but I no longer want to keep him.

Closing gaps in college access focus of board By Shelley Shan Daily Texan Staff The Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board discussed ways to balance appropriations, student financial aid and tuition in order to close the gaps in access to college Thursday. In the two-day quarterly meet­ ing, board members mdicated that general revenue appropriations for higher education institutions have increased over the past decade. Statewide, university general revenue has risen 28.8 percent. In terms of resident undergraduate tuition, Texas ranked 32nd high­ est in a 2001 survey, rising from 42nd in 19%. Financial aid avail­ ability has grown 24 percent since 1997. Among the 10 most popu­ lous states, Texas was ranked third in terms of higher education appropriations and achieved middle ranking when it comes to appropriating state and local tax funds for operational expenses for higher education. The board indicated that as tuition and fees at state public institutions have been rising at a Jarger rate than family income, many families will have to seek financial aid for additional edu­ cation funding. The presentation also showed that tuition and fees, as a percentage of median house­ hold income, has jumped from 4.4 percent to 8.8 percent since 1986, which indicates that fami­ lies have had to spend a larger percentage of income on chil­ dren's education. Over the last decade, the bur­ den of supplying educational revenue for public universities has been shifting from state to student. Facing criticism on failure of financial aid to meet the need of college students, Teri E. Flack, deputy commissioner of Texas 1 ligher Education, said Texas should also aim to increase work- study opportunities, which may be an alternative way to stimulate college participation and success. She highlighted the state's goal to increase enrollment in public col­ lege institutions to 500,(XX) bv 2015, with 300,000 of the new stu­ dents being Hispanic and black students. Wanda j. Mills, executive direc­ tor of Council of Public University' Presidents and Chancellors, gave credit for the board's efforts in bal­ ancing tuition and financial aid. "I think they are headed in a right direction," Mills said. Terdema Usserv, board mem­ ber and C EO of the Dallas Mavericks basketball team, said the issues addressed in the meet­ ing failed to address his concern with student financial aid. Ussery said asking students to bear more of the financial burden and the access of enrollment at the same time is conflicting. increasing The board is scheduled to pres­ ent the total cost of the new finan­ cial aid program today.

Jeanette and M ack Tubbs, parents of defensive tackle Marcus Tubbs, said the families have a lot of fun together during the games. "I haven't been around a group of parents as great as these," Jeanette Tubbs said. "I really enjoy being around them." Not all the parents know each other by their first names, but Jeanette Tubbs said they often refer to one another by the play­ ers' names. Though the parents don't all travel as one group, many often make plans to meet some time before games. "Som e of the fathers have already discussed when to meet for breakfast in Nebraska — 6:30 a.m.," Mack Tubbs said. The Tubbs family, who live in DeSoto, said they are happy Marcus decided to attend the University because playing for another school — such as Nebraska — would have called for a long trip for each game. "O ne of the reasons we asked Marcus to go to school close to home is so we can support him," Jeanette Tubbs said. "It's not as expensive to drive to Austin for home games. We can just sup­ port him so much easier." Nearly every weekend dur­ ing the fall, parents find them­ selves aw'ay from home follow­ ing the team.

Police, acting on an anonymous tip, arrived at the home of Leo and Ian Steelman, a father and son who work as electricians, on April 21,1998, and seized mari­ juana. The officers peered into the house through a crack in a window blind and saw four men sitting in a living room but observed no illegal activity. According to the court's opin­ ion, the officers then knocked on the front door, which was opened by Ian Steelman, who stepped outside and closed the door behind him. The officers smelled Í the odor of burnt marijuana and 1 proceeded to burst through the i doorway, handcuff the men and place them under arrest. -AP Rain expected to continue throughout weekend Thunderstorms this weekend will be followed by cloudy skies throughout next week, according to the National Weather.

Getting back into action S p o r t s T hk D \m T t\ \n Page 7 Friday, October 25, 2002 ORANGE/WHITE SCRIMMAGE By Darren W. Dummtt Daily Texan Staff With Texas returning all five starters and seven of its eight leading scorers from a year ago, the O ran g e/W h ite scrim m age Thursday night figured to show­ case essentially the same team that came up a running jumper shy of reaching the Elite Eight in last season's tournament. Instead, Longhorn fans were treated to a faster, stronger and more mature collection of athletes poised to ride preseason All- American T.J. Ford and junior cen­ ter James Thomas to a serious national championship bid. "This is the best effort we've had. In the five years that I have been here, this is the most we've gotten out of the Orange /W hite scrimmage," Texas coach Rick Bames said. TTte pace of the 2002-2003 season was set in the first minute of the inter-squad scrimmage, when Ford found Thomas stnding ahead of the pack for a pair of easy transi­ tion baskets. Thomas would not be looking back the entire night, intro­ ducing a new turn-around hook shot to compliment the 25 extra pounds he put on over the sum­ mer. "We want to be a running team, and in order to do that in a game, you've got to do that in practice," Thomas said. "We're a good 10 or 11 deep, and we all have different assets that will help this team go to the national championship." In just one 20-minute half and one eight-minute half, Thomas poured in 18 points arid tallied seven rebounds. The only player on the court to exceed Thomas' rebound total was freshman Brad Buckman, who grabbed nine boards in his first action in front of the home-town crowd since his days at Westlake High. Ford, the nation's leading assist man last season, shook off a rolled ankle early in the scrimmage to dish out eight dimes in 38 minutes. Perhaps trying to do a bit too much to dazzle the 3,245 fans eager to see something spectacu­ lar, Ford committed four first-half turnovers. But the second half was a different story, as Ford recap­ tured his trademark composure, pushing the ball up the court like a chess master thinking three moves ahead of his opponent. While Royal Ivey and Brandon Mouton handled most of the two and three guard duties a season ago, senior Terrell Ross and fresh­ man Kenton Paulino showed why Texas might now have the deepest backcourt in the country'. Ross, a first-team All-American two years ago at Allegany Junior College, enters the season 100 per­ cent healthy for the first time in his career as a Longhorn. The logical replacement for Fredie Williams, Ross turned in 12 points, six rebounds and two assists to go with his suffocating perimeter defense. "Terrell is healthy and in the kind of shape he wants to be in," Bames said. "H e's got to give us a presence defensively on the perimeter, and with his size and strength he can do that for us." Though Paulino flew under the recruiting radar despite a high school career chockfull of acco­ lades, he came out firing in the first half — hitting on all five of his field goal attempts. The lone piece of the puzzle missing from the floor Thursday night was swingman Deginald Erskin, who is out indefinitely with a shoulder injury'. Erskin led the Horns in scoring during last year's memorable postseason run, and Bames expects much more of the same whenever he is cleared to play. Freshman Paulino promises By Avery Holton Daily Texan Staff Nearly six minutes had ticked off the clcxrk at Thursday night's O range/W hite scrim­ mage before a coast-to-coast journeyman found his new home. When Kenton Paulino drained his first three-pointer at the Frank Erwin Center, the pressure of being a freshman in front of the home crowd for the first time dripped away. When he sank four more shots on four more attempts, he made a name for himself. He finished his first game with 13 points and five assists. "I'd give myself a C-plus for tonighFs performance," Paulino said. "I need to improve my defense. I need to give that more effort." Giving more effort is what Paulino has been doing since he left the security of inner-city lx>s Angeles in search of a new style of play. Less than a year ago, Paulino was adjusting to a foreign lifestyle in the hidden wood­ lands of Maine. Originally from South-Central L.A., Paulino chose to take the prepatory school route. He found himself almost 3,00(3 miles from home and far removed from the noisy city life he had grown up in. to add some West Coast flavor, depth to the strong Longhorn roster The co-City Section Player of the Year for Los Angeles in 2001, Paulino moved into a densely wooded, unlit area of a state he had never been to. There, sometínng special took root. He averaged 19 points, three rebounds and four assists per game while helping Maine Central to a 26-6 record. Then he took one trip, made one visit, to the Texas campus and decided he would make Austin his third home. Institute "It's a lot hotter here," Paulino said, "and the game is a lot quicker." After knocking down his First five shots, he missed his linal three. Working against the heighth mismatch of guard Brandon Mouton, who at 6- foot-4-inches has a three-inch advantage over Paulino, and the explosive drives of point guard T.J. Ford, wore Paulino down. "1 need to put more into my defense," Paulino said. "I tend to look at the ball, and then I get picked." Beyond the freshmen fatigue and the first-game mistakes, Paulino looked right at home. With quick feet and deep range, he's likely to be a backup point guard for Ford and a sometí me­ sh exiting guard. Guarding against taller guards like Mouton shouldn't be a problem later in the season. Kansas' Aaron Miles, named to the Big 12 All-Freshman team last year, led a well-executed Jayhawk defense that garnered Kansas a top seed in this year's Big 12 preseason poll. Miles and Paulino are both 6- feet-one-inch, 175-pounds. But while Miles is a true point, Paulino can work either guard spot, though Texas coach Rick Bames said he'll probably use a four-point system. "We have four guys we can use [at the point]," Bames said. "Kenton is a good player. What he did here tonight, we've seen it all year." Defense leads Horns into last weekdend of Big 12 play By Melanie Boehm Daily Texan Staff In Texas' final two regular season home games, all eyes will be focused on the defense. After tying the school record for shutouts last weekend the Longhorns' back line looks to set a new record this weekend. eight, with "O ur job is to get shutouts, and we want them every game," senior defender Jessica Hopkins-Brost said. "Breaking the record at home makes it even sweeter." The defense has led the No. 3 Longhorns (12-2-1 overall, 7-0 Big 12) all season, but has stepped up since the start of conference play. Five of Texas' seven Big 12 games ended in shutouts. "The defense is the difference from last year's team," Texas coach Chris Petmcelli said. "Even when the team doesn't play great soccer, they keep the other team from scor­ ing." Texas' first opportunity to break the record comes tonight against Kansas. The Jayhawks enter the game third in the Big 12 with a 4-2- 1 conference record. Kansas has not been shutout in Big 12 play this year, and failed to score only once this season. "Kansas is always very good," Hopkins-Brost said. "They've had some high-scoring games, and they always come out ready to play." Sunday, Texas hosts the Big 12's fourth-place team, Missouri. Two of last year's most exciting victories for the Longhorns came against the Tigers. In their first meeting of the year, the two teams held each other scoreless for the first 85 minutes before Texas mid­ fielder Nicole Breger broke the tie with 4:03 remaining. The teams met again in the semi­ finals of tire Big 12 tournament, where they remained tied until the end of regulation play. It wasn't until the fourth overtime that Texas broke the score. This season, the Tigers have already played in five overtime matches, four of which went into double overtime. Sunday, Texas will honor its six seniors in what could be their last home game. During their four years as Longhorns, Texas has improved from an 8-9-2 team to a national championship contender. "Texas is now one of the best teams in the country," Petrucelli said. "You don't improve like that without quality players and people like our seniors are. With Texas hosting the Final Four tournament this season, the seniors' only chance of playing at home again is by making a run through the postseason. "1 don't want this to be my last game at Mike A. M eyer's Stadium," Hopkins-Brost said. "1 don't think it will be. I have a feel­ ing we'U be back in December."

The Tigers (17-4, 7-3) have a chance to reclaim some confi­ dence after suffering an em bar­ rassing three-game loss to Kansas State — the same team Texas swept in three games. Meanwhile, tire Longhorns (17- 3,9-2) have a chance to return the favor Missouri paid them earlier this season by taking a victory on the Tigers' homecourt. "They were definitely upset," head coach Jerritt Elliott said about his players' loss at home to Missouri. "They're competitive young ladies, and they made a com m itm ent to them selves to play better." After two stinging defeats against the Tigers and No. 4 Nebraska, the Longhorns haven't dropped a match since Sep. 25.

Offensively, Texas holds a steady hitting percentage at .268 and hammers an average of 15.98 in M ira kills per match. Add the Croatian offensive Topic, m achine, and the Longhorns present a much stronger force against the Tigers than in their first meeting. M issouri's serve proved too much for Texas the first time around. The Longhorns com m it­ ted nine service errors, prevent­ ing the team from getting into a consistent pass pattern. Without a steady pass, kills were nearly impossible, and Texas only hit .196 for the night. “Hopefully, we're going to be able to move our feet a little bet­ ter," Elliott said. "W e're going to practice w'hat they do w ell." And the Tigers serve very well. T h e y 're second only to N ebraska as the conference leader in service aces and have dynam ic freshman Shen Danru who ranks second in conference aces, averaging 0.53 a match. " S h e 's an exp erien ced p layer," E llio tt said ab ou t the S h an g h ai, China native. "Sh e's young, but she brings a lot to the table. She's jump server, ball-con- a good troller and great attacker. “We've got to do a good job of containing her." But Topic and athletic hitter LaTonya Coates should be able to match the 5 -fo o t-11-inch out­ side hitter Danru with offensive power. The only other lingering ques­ tion for Texas is who will start at setter. After freshman setter Caron Blotch twisted her ankle in game two against Iowa State, sopho­ more Abbie Schindler stepped in to help the Longhorns. Despite Schindler's career-high 42 assists against Southw est Texas State, Elliott may start Blotch. "I'm not sure w hat w e're to do y e t," he said. going this "C aro n 's d ay-to-d ay at point; wre'll see how her injury comes along." M issouri's Lindsay Hunter averages 14.35 assists per match and helped the Tigers to clinch the top spot in assists this week in the conference. By Jennifer Prestigiacomo Daily Texan Staff Enter the narrator: a lean, buck- naked man wearing only studded leather straps criscrossing his chest. He carries a large book as if he's going to tell a fairytale. But this is no Hans Christian Anderson, and II) Nuked Men is definitely not a children's fable. A balls-out tale of Hollywood hustlers, agents and actors, 10 Naked M m , playing at the Hyde Park Theatre, is a light-heart­ ed gaze into a world of seedy cast­ ing couches and sticky escort ads. There is no false advertising. In the play's first five minutes, 10 naked men of all shapes and sizes , trav erse the stage with small letter cards (that spell the play's title) briefly covering their pnvate parts. After this initial shock of naked­ ness, nudity is sprinkled through­ out the show as it ties into the char­ acters' sexual encounters. Robert, a w ide-eyed aspiring actor, moves out to Hollywood to look for work and rooms with his friend Kenny, a bank teller. At work, Kenny meets Steve, a petite, prettv-bov and exchanges one of the play's funniest one-liners, "Will you be handling all of my deposits?" Steve's onlv problem is that he is afraid to reveal to Kennv his job as an escort. As romance between the two blossoms, Robert procures a sleazy agent, |im Tucker. Tucker trades favors and clients with lech­ erous commercial director Allen, who pays Richard, the "Airborne Ranger"and hustler, for his sexual services. All the while, six degrees separate the other characters who round out the main narrative with amusing subplots. The wool from Robert's eyes as he becomes aware of the way things work in the “real" world. His chubby' stature and lack of a significant other force him to pay male prostitutes for sex, and he is bought and sold for act­ ing gigs. The play's cynicism is minimized by constant cornedv and exaggerated homosexual char­ acters. is removed The sparse set — bedecked with palms and indistinct black furni­ ture — is virtually unnoticeable, as the bulk of the play's action is dia­ logue driven, revealing the charac­ ters' connections and motives. Costuming is also simplistically straightforward as characters are naked, robed or wearing casual clothing. Eric Jirak pulls his own weight in Hyde Park Theatre s 1 0 Naked Men. naked bum s the difference is betw een the acting of 10 Nuked AIen veterans Eric Jirak, from the origi­ nal off-Broadw av cast, and Preston Bntton from the Detroit and San Diego productions and the other Austin-based cast members. Jirak and Britton's on-stage chemistry ignited many laughs and were the highlight of the play. Joe Plam beck, who played the naive, teddy-bear- ísh Robert, stole the show with his self-deprecating hum or and quick­ paced repartee. the production stood out, but were quickly forgotten a s the quick­ paced narrative sped along. 10 Nuked M en's w riter/d irecto r Ronnie 1 arsen made a nam e for him self a couple of years ago with M aking Porn, an off-B ro ad w ay sm ash starring real p om stars. If the 10 naked men at the beginning of his latest plav d o n 't cem ent audiences' attention, then the fast- paced scene changes, and the endearing plight of the hopeful gay actor will surely keep the audi­ ence's enrapt attention.

VEL0S0, from 12 Exiled from B ra/il until 1072, Veloso has since becom e one of the greatest artists (it the last 30 years both in his hom eland and w orldw ide. O n tour in the U nited States to prom ote his new album , Live in Bahia, Veloso and his eight- piece b an d brought their stu n ­ ning act to B ass C o n cert H a ll W ednesday night. looked m ore Veloso began his set with the rol­ licking "Tw o Naira Fifty K obo" like a spry, and cherubic boy than a 60-year-old man. Throughout the course of his short b u t m o v in g set, Veloso ap p eared a n g e lic o n sta g e , o fte n d a n c in g and ca v o rtin g w ith th e o th e r m u sic ia n s. C o n s ta n tly in v e n tiv e , V eloso p erfo rm ed an eclectic group of com p ositio n s that ranged from the su b lim e "M en in o do R io " to the ov ertly political "1 3 de M aio." Songs», lik e the m o v in g " N o ite s d o N o rte ," w hich featured V eloso's acou stic gu itar and the stunn in g cello accom p anim ent o f Jacq u es M orelen bau m highlighted the sin g er's beautiful vibrato and p er­ fect u se of vocal dynam ics. V elo so 's four-m an percu ssion section was also impressive, and their polyrh ythm ic d ru m m in g m ad e songs like " H a iti" and "L in g u a" vibrant and propulsive. A t several m om ents in the show, probing red and blue lights added dram a to the em otionally intense perform ance. W hile the band was a perfect foil for the smooth delivery and sly it w as m elodies of the singer, Veloso's solo turn that proved to be the highlight of the evening. Playing several tim eless songs like the G eorge G ersh w in classic "Su m m ertim e," Veloso illum inat­ ed his p osition as o n e o f the w orld 's greatest m usical gem s. th is V eloso has called tour, N oites do N orte, a "m ed itatio n on th em es of race, slavery, and B razil's quest for national identi­ ty." While Veloso's m u sic deals with the issue o f national identity, the singer him self is now part of trad itio n . B ra z il's rich m ú sica! K now n as a director, writer, and perform er Veloso is not only beloved in his own country, but is an international icon o f the diver­ sity o f m usic and cu lture that e x is ts in Brazil Veloso proved to b e a perfect a m b assad o r fo r Brazil's musical heritage show ing the audience of ecstatic fans that m usic knows no boundaries. ■ r.U-W.MlUM■rriran™ mmmmm mimmiim ■ m m * ■T'.lirii'.lilldl ütEzmi! 790 - Part time 790 - Part rime 800 - General 800 - General 800 - General 790 - Part rime 800 - General 8 4 0 - Sales Help Wanted Help Wanted Help Wanted ESSAY SCORERS NEEDED O C C A S IO N A L W O R K In d ivid u a ls w ith B.A . or a d va n ce d d eg re e in English or a related la n g u a g e arts field a nd w ith tea ch in g e xperience at the se con da ry o r co lle ge level are needed to score student essays The session w ill run from M o n d a y , N o ve m b e r 1 1 ¡hours 8 :3 0 am to 4 3 0 pm) through Friday, N o ve m b e r 15.

Noble Daily Texan Staff Americans began their love affair with the music of Brazil in the early 1960s. In fact, Stan Getz’s 1963 collaboration with Astrud and Joao Gilberto, on Getz/Gilberto. stands as a water­ shed moment for the introduction of Brazilian songs into the American musical milieu. Packed with classics by the supreme composer Antonio Carlos Jobim, G etz/Gilberto taught America and the world about the intoxicating rhythms of the bossa nova and a beach named Ipanema. While the bossa nova rage that followed made Jobim, Gilberto and others famous outside of their native Brazil, ultimately the fashion obscured the innovations of a new generation of Brazilian musical auteurs. Enter the Tropicalia movement led by Brazilian pacesetters Tom Ze, Os Mutantes, Gilberto Gil and one Caetano Emanuel Vianna Telles Veloso. Combining a then- combustible mix of traditional Brazilian rhythms and the bom bast of rock and roll. Veloso and party managed to incite everyone from Brazil’s repressive military regime to the nation’s radical youth with their revolutionary take on pop music.

The Tigers and Kansas will play S Notes: Kansas State has a 3-0 series lead and has defeatc d the the Bears by an average margin of 3 8 points in those meetings. The Wildcats came within a blocked field goal of upending to the Texas, but instead tell Longhorns, 17-14. But Kansas State has reason to stay motivat­ ed to beat the underdog Bears. The Wildcats are one victory' away from being bowl eligible for the lOth-straight season under head coach Bill Snyder. "The important thing for th is ball game is preparation," Snyder said. "It's not whether Baylor plays well or doesn t play well, it all boils down to us." While Kansas State's s e a s o n will probably end in a bowl appearance, the Bears are likely to miss out on the postseason for the ninth-consecutive season. One of the few bright spots for Bavlor and head coach Kevin Steele has been the play of senior wideout Reggie Newhouse. In the Bears first seven games, Newhouse has caught 40 passes for 601 yards and a touchdown. And Kansas State defensive back Terence Newman said that stopping passing the Bears attack is one of the keys to victo­ ry- "They'll do a lot of things with their passing situations to get wide open," Newman said. "But 1 know defensively, we'll be up to the task." Big 12 Passing Leaders 1. K. Kingsbury, Tx. Tech 2. S. Wallace, Iowa St. 3. C. Simms, Texas 4. B. Smith. Missouri 5. B.

While the Red Raiders' quar­ terback situation has bien settled fo u r years, for almost the Buffaloes are just now finding their way at the quarterback spot. Quarterback Robert Hodge has led Colorado to four-straight vic­ tories since O ch s' departure to Montana. He h as completed 52 of 93 attempts for 678 yards w ith six touchdowns w ith just one inter­ ception and ranks tops in the Big 12 in passing efficiency in confer­ ence games. Though C o lo ra d o is rising through the national ranks again this season, B arnett said his quar­ terback m ust play well if the Buffaloes hope to get the wún at home. "Robert has been so efficient, and there isn't anybody who has played close to that over the past couple g a m e s," Barnett said. "The ball is alw ays right there, always on tim e. He throws a very catchable ball." season," M issouri head coach Garv Pinkel said. "It's a big, big rivalry, and that's certainly the emphasis w e're making on our football team since the day I've been here." The Tigers have reason to think that their season is looking up. Red shirt freshm an quarterback Brad Smith has surprised many w ith his display of athleticism in Missouri's past few games. In a narrow loss to Oklahoma three weeks ago, Smith rushed for 248 yards against the highly- touted Sooner defense. The fresh­ man also threw' for nearly 150 yards against one of the best sec­ ondaries in the nation. And the Tigers' young starter said that the team 's improvement is more important than his indi­ vidual progression. "W hatever my team needs me to do, I'm going to do just that," Smith said. "W e're looking for­ ward to any kind of challenge, because it's going to be a fun game." While the Tigers have reason to be optimistic, the Jayhawks are reeling. Kansas lost to Baylor three w eeks ago, giving the Bears their first conference w'in in 29 tries. Under first-year head coach Mark M angino, the Kansas has yet to find its stride. "It's good being the under­ dog," M angino said. "The play­ ers are watching Missouri tapes and are well aware of the situa­ tion." Kansas' coach also gave praise to M issouri's youthful quarter­ back. "Brad Sm ith is a very, very tal­ ented guy," Mangino said. "I've seen him do some things on tape that 1 d on 't see a lot of quarter­ backs d o."

And Colorado head coach Gary Barnett had nothing but to say about things positive Kingsbury's play this year. "Kingsbury is a really good player with a lot of confidence, and his huge offensive line does a great job protecting him ," Barnett said. "The most impressive thing to me about him is his toughness, because in their offense, you do get hit a lot." IIV IA X T H E A T R E The Bob Bullock Texas State History Museum 1800 N.

"It's quite sim p le," W illingham said. "[Flo rid a State] is, in my estim ation, tw o points aw ay from bein g the N o. 1 team in the cou n­ try." Parseghian relates to ND head coach Willingham By Tom Coyne The Associated Press SO U T H BEN D , Ind. — Ara Parseghian feels like it's 1964 all ov er again. Back then, he was a tirst-year coach w ho took over a sub-.500 team at Notre Dam e and immedi- atelv produced a winner that near- lv won the national championship. A l l these y e a rs later, he's watch­ ing new com er Tyrone Willingham oversee a sim ilar turnaround, tak­ ing in Irish squad that went 5-6 last year and leading it to a 7-1)start and No. 6 ranking. I here are a lot of similarities here," Parseghian said. "The kids get the right chemistry, they get excited about winning and their confidence soars. Those are all fac- tors. e The 79-year-old Parseghian sens* >mething special is happening, It's a w< mderful experience and it's being shared by all the alumni, the student body, all the form er players," he said. "This is justternf- 1C* Nearly 40 years ago, he took over a losing program with a storied past Mans thought the school's at ademit requirements and sched- ult were Ux> difficult to allow it to com pete titles. Parseghian convinced his players that thev were good enough to com pete for one. national for Willingham is doing the sam e thing. I know exac tly what he's going th o u g h because it's exactly what 1964," through wt w ent Parseghian said. " I t s very difficult t< - duplicate because of the circum- st a ices md bcx au.se-vou're measur­ in ing it against the past." S o far, Willingham is measuring up quite nicely. A win at No. 11 Florida State (5- 2) this w eekend w ould give Willingham an 84) record. The only first-year coach in N otre Dame his­ tory who got off to a better start was Parseghian, whose Insh were No. 1 and had a 9-0 record before losing the final gam e of the season to Southern California. Parseghian d id n't expect that kind of start in 1964. 1 le knew his team had som e talent, but he was worried about depth — a story line- familiar to this year's team. The key back then, Parseghian said, was starting the season on the road with a win against Wisconsin, then beating a Purdue team that had won seven of 10 against the Irish. "N othing succeeds like success," Parseghian said. This year's team w ent on the mad and beat M aryland in the K ickoff Classic, then beat a Purdue team that had played the Irish extrem ely tough the past five years. Parseghian and W illingham played golf together several times and occasionally have spoken on the phone. P arseghian also has w atched Willingham along the sidelines. "H e 's very cool under pressure; that's what I've observed. H e is really totally in control of himself, and 1 think that is reflected in his team and the- way they plav under pressure," Parseghian said. "H e dem ands discipline, he demands respect and believes in his system and believes in his staff. I think we shared the sam e traits w hen w e were- here." W illingham describes his con­ v e r s a t i o n s w ith Parseghian as "enlightening," saying they cov­ ered a lot of amas. The only real advice Parseghian rem em bers giving Willingham is to p ace him self and not the dem ands of the job get in the way of coaching. let "I just told him, 'D on't allow any there are them ,"' distractions, because going Parseghian said. to be a lot of Parseghian will tailgate before the gam es, then go home to watch the Irish on TV so he can sit back without bt-ing bothered. The biggest problem for Willingham now is the same prob­ lem Parseghian faced after his first season at Notre Dame 38 years ago: expectations. "It's not going to get easier. We w ere 7-2-1 the second year them, and people wondered, 'W hat hap­ pened? W h at's going on here? W h y 'd w e tw o g am es?"' Parseghian said. "You elevate your­ self very quickly like that, then the expectations become very great." lose Willingham knows the expecta­ tions he's created. He describes them as "a reality, but not a con­ cern." Parseghian retired in 1974 at age 51, after leading the Irish to two national cham pionships in 11 sea­ sons. I le had another piece of advice for Willingham. " Enjoy this — the emotion of get­ ting to the top of the mountain — because you can't duplicate that," Parseghian said. "It's a lot tougher to stay on the mountain than it is to clim b it."

Davis' final season as coach at the University of Miami also was \mtana Moss' last year playing for the Hurricanes. Both moved into the NFL, and on Sunday, they'll be on opposite sidelines. Moss had a breakout game last weekend, catching five passes for 111 yards in the New York jets' 20-7 vic­ tory against Minnesota. Davis fully expected to see that out of the wide receiver — and doesn't want to set* anv more of it against his Cleveland Browns "Santana was a dynamic player for us in M iam i," Davis said. "H e brought a lot of versatility. He's a ter­ rific kick returner, an explosive player with big-plav capability not only in the passing game, but in reverses, which they have used. 1 le just brings a lot of excitement. 1 le has a quick change of direction, good speed, good hands, and he is a very talented player." M o ss, who missed most of his rookie season with injuries and has been nicked up this year, now is at full strength. With Cleveland's sec­ ondary banged up, he could be a bit more than the Browns can handle "T h at is a legitimate concern the quality of becausv of the receivers/' Davis said, also mention­ ing Laveranues Coles and Wayne Chrebet, who had solid games against the Vikings, too, as Chad Pennington threw for 124 yards. "As the week goes along w e will have a little better idea of the status of the secondary." are Moss (shoulder) Com erback Corev Fuller (ham­ string) and strong safety Robert Griffith out. ( om eiback Dayton McCutcheon (elbow) is questionable. looks facing Davis' defense, especially if the sec­ ondary is undermanned. He has nothing but high praise for the man who reunited him to Miami out of Carol Citv High School, even though Moss was just a third-team all-state player in talent-rich Florida. forward to "I caught 20 (passes), but 12 were touchdowns," he said of his senior season at Carol Cit\, which w'on a state title. "I have nothing at all against Butch. He is a wonderful coach. He gave me a chance. All is good with me and Butch. " 1 know he wras a hard guy at col­ lege, and he got me ready to play at this level. We had one of the hardest practices and hardest drills at Miami. I thank him for getting me ready." Moss was a dominator in college from the outset. One of the nation's best punt returners, he also holds the school record with 2,546 yards receiv­ ing, beating Michael Irvin's mark. Oddly, Dav is was so hamstrung by NCAA penalties that the Hurricanes didn't hav e a football s< holarship for Moss. He attended the school on a track scholarship — Moss was a two- time state champion triple jumper and wrent on to w in the long |ump and triple jump in the 2000 Big East outdoor champúmships. "You could just see the explosion, the things he was doing for their track team and the vertical jum p," Davis said, referring to the 5-foot-10 Moss. "H e plays like a 6-1 player. He was a great addition to our team. He is a football player that can run track. "We sat down aftd sáid, 1 et's see if there are guys that we can maybe bring in on track scholarships, so after they are in the program for a year, flip into football scholarships as them they become available ' 1 he school said that was OK, but you can 't phony up any players. You couldn't go get a 6-5, 275-pound offeasive tackle and tell everyone that he was the state 100-meter dash champion." What Davis eventually got was Moss. What he'll get Sunday is Moss' best. "I'm real glad to get a chance to play Coach Davis," Moss said. "But my job is to get open no matter what's out there." Mark Lennihan/Associated Press New York Jets receiver Santana Moss hauls in a 22-yard reception against the Minnesota Vikings on Oct. 20. : Post-first-round rookies shine this season By Dave Goldberg Associated Press Once again, players drafted after the first round are dc>ing as well in their nx>k ie years as their more ballyhooed coun­ terparts. Look at Miami — both the Dolphins and the Hurricanes. Five players from last year's college national champions were taken in the first round of the NFL draft in April. Yet, w'ith the possible exception of Oakland comerback Philip Buchanon, who broke his wrist last week, the most productive has been a second-rounder. Running back Clinton Portis of Denver h as gained 451 yards and has a 5.1 per cany' average. The two running backs taken in the first round, William Green of Cleveland (64 for 143) and T.j. Duckett of Atlanta (68 for 273) have 416 yards between them, 35 fewer tiran Portis. "It happens every year," says Gil Brandt, who ran the draft for the Cowboys during the Tom Landry era and is now the NFL's draft consultant. "In the first round, people try to find a great plaver. Often that's hit or miss. In the second round, there are always good, solid football players who am going to play in the NFL for a long time, even it they're not superstars." Second-round w'ide receivers have hit it bigger than first-rounders Javon Walker of Green Bay, Ashley Lelie of Denver and Donte' Stallworth of New Orleans — although all three have performed decently. The second-round group includes Deion Branch of New England, Josh Reed of Buffalo, Andre' Davis of Cleveland, Antonio Bryant of Dallas and Jabar Gaffney of Houston. Branch, the 65th player selected, leads the Patriots (and all rookies) with 37 receptions. Another second-round pick, offensive lineman Langston Walker, has started at both left and right tackle for the Raiders, something few coaches would let an unprepar Will r> safety for *d rookie do. mps, a free agent, is starting at Baltimore. The Ravens also are starting Anthony Weaver, m another second-rounder, at p- defensive end. m FO O D Cafe Matisse Chippery Gyro King f j j Back to Miami. Jemmy Shockey, another Hurricane, was supposed to lie the next great tight end after being drafted by the Giants and looking like a 1 lall of Famer on national television in, aptly, the Hall of Fame game. I U* still may be. He's doing all right, considering he's been hampered bv ankle and toe in|uries and a sluggish N ew York offense — 16 catches for an av erage of 13.1 yards and a touchdown. That's one less catch in five game- (he missed one with a toe injury) than ( iiants tight ends had all last season. But Randy McMichael of the Dolphins, taken in the fourth round, currently leads rookie tight ends in receiving with 24 catches, a 13.6 average and four TDs. He was the seventh tight end taken, behind Shockey, Daniel, ( iraham of New England and Jerramv Stevens of Seattle, all first-rounders; D oug Jolley of Oakland (second); Matt Schobel of Cincinnati and Chris Baker of the lets (third). Only Shockey's stats are anyw here close to McMichael's. Another anomaly. The Dolphins were without first- or second-round picks, hav ing given both to New Orleans in the trade for Ricky Williams. McMichael's production so far has more than made up for it. And what was supposed to be wrong w ith McMichael? He's a little small for a modern tight end: 6-foot-3,247 pounds. 1 le missed two at Georgia, injuries seasons with although he started them as a tme fresh­ man.

Oh, like some other players, he's not so sum all of Spurrier's shuffling is working out for the best. "W'hen guys am in and out, it's hard to jell together," Matthew's said Wednesday. "Hopefully, this'll be it." Matthew's is back at the helm Sunday for game night's against the. I n d i a n a p o l i s h a v i n g C o l t s r u i n e full u n le M in e b e i n g s e l e c t e d t h e Steve Spurrier * starter. He start- ed the first three but games, Spurrier's quick hook got him in the second half of the second and third gam es. Matthews' stats .ill bad — four touch­ weren't downs, tw o interceptions and a quarterback rating of 84.4 — and he still isn't happy about being benched for Danny Wuerffel for the fourth game. "I w asn't happy w'hen all that w ent dow n," Matthews said. "I'm the kind of player when 1 play bad, I'll tell you. I'll face up to it. And at that time I ilidn't feel like 1 had played that bad." Wuerffel was injured on the first series o f his start, and rookie Patrick Ramsey has played since. Ramsev struggled badly in losses to New Orleans and Green Bay, so Spurrier and the Redskins (2-4) are relying on Matthew's again to save the season. "A lm o st m ust-win," a Matthew's said. "W e've got to w in. It s a given. We can't be 2-5 going into the eighth w'eek. We've got to turn it around quick." When Matthews was benched, he was criticized by Spurrier for dum ping the ball short too often and n ot looking downfield. Ramsey followed the coach's phi­ losophy better, but he was sacked 13 times in two starts and threw four interceptions. talent on In retrospect, given the lack of star the offense, Matthews' more conservative wray m ight b e the Redskins can w in. the only way "You ju st try to play smart, take what the defense gives you and give your team a chance to win gam es," Matthews said. "There's only a few guys who can say, 'Hey, jump on mv shoulders, I'm going to win the game for you.' That's (Brett) Favre, (Donovan) McNabb, a couple of other guys. I'm not one o f those quarterbacks. I don't think wre have anyone on our ros­ ter who can do that. "If w e have to punt, that's not a bad thing. Just be smart, move the ball. If you w atch the NFL, some­ times it's a game of field position. We w'ant to score a lot of points, but at tim es if wre have to w'in 10- 7, w'e'U d o that." That credo is so non-Spurner that the coach, w'hen asked for a machón, felt Matthews must have been misinterpreted. " I d o n 't think Shane really meant that," Spurrier said. "I think w'hat he meant is that w'e've got to stop turning the ball over so much, like we have the last few gam es." M atthew s said he will throw downfield when the opportunity is there, but he also noted that the whole evolution of the offense is indicative of rookie coach Spurrier learning his way in the pros. "T h ere's a lot of coaches on this staff w ho haven't experienced the NFL," Matthew's said. "In college, one thing can go wrong, and you can still have a big play. On this level, all 11 guys have to be on the same page for the play to work. It's a learning experience." Sp u rrier and Matthew's do agree on one thing: The offensive line is a liability. Owner Dan Snyder and the front office failed to address the guard situation in the offseason, and left tackle C h ris. Sam u els hasn't been h im self' because of a string of injuries and illnesses. Sam uels probably will play this week, b u t he's still hampered by a sprained ankle. Guard Brendan Stai will probably miss his second straight game with a knee injur)'. Guard signed Tuesday, said he can play in a pinch but probably won't be ready to go at full speed for a couple of weeks. Johnson, Tre ? Friday, October 25, 2002 S p ir it P \u Page 19 Smith running for record against Seahawks Hutchinson primed for Dallas’ starting position Sunday By Jaime Aron Associated Press IRVING — Emmitt Smith usu­ ally plays his best when there's a lot at stake. So m aybe iLs onlv fit­ ting that he needs his best day of the season Sunday if h e 's to break the NFL career rushing record at home. Smith is 93 yards from ending Walter Payton's 18-year reign as the rushing leader. In the past, Sm ith could be counted on to gain that much. But now he's averaging only 64 yards per game, with a high o f 82. It he can't top that against the Seattle Seahaw ks, he'll likely break the mark on the road the D allas C ow boys because d on't return to Texas Stadium until Nov. 24. Although Smith has been aim ­ ing for the record his entire career, h e's trying not to let it warp his perspective this week. I le had his w ife answ er the phone at night to keep distractions dow'n, vet he expects m ore butterflies than usual before ku koff. "M y approach this week is the sam e as every w eek," he said. "T h e change is that there are m ore cam eras, more talking, but my thoughts in tenns of w hat I have to do to prepare mentally and physically has not changed." The Cow boys have been m ar­ keting S m ith 's pursuit o f the record for two seasons. They put up "See Emmitt Run" billboards last year. This season's tickets show pictures o f Sm ith m ile­ stones — this gam e features the in Janu ary 1994 Su p er Bow l which he was the MVP. The next memorable snapshot will be the record-setting run. "I want it to be a touchdown," he said, "but just because I w ant it doesn't mean it's going to hap­ pen. We'll have to see how it plays out." The Seahaw ks (1-5) an* the per­ fect foe. They allow a league- w orst 189.5 yard s m shing per game, and they've already given up season-high gam es to four players. Still, Sm ith know s Seattle's weaknesses are "not a guarantee that 1 will have a successful gam e," and many of the reasons are beyond his control. After years of running behind Pro Bowl blockers, Dallas' start­ ing line likely will include a play- er signed last week, a converted defensive end m aking only his third start and a rookie center. A m ong the backups art* two play­ ers signed W ednesday and a rookie w ho has played one game. Then there's the passing gam e — or the lack of one.
