Four other stud ents rem ained h o sp ital­ ized a day after the crash, in which a rented van carrying a group nine of UT debate team m em bers back to Austin from a Las V egas to u rn am en t overturned in a ditch about 15 miles north of Las Cruces, N.M. Megan O'Neil, a freshman, was listed in satisfactory condition in the intensive care u n it at th e U n iv e rs ity o f N ew M ex ico M edical C enter in A lbuquerque, officials said. They also said that Cally Peabody, an undeclared freshman, was transferred from L as C ru ces M em orial H osp ital to Sierra Medical Center in El Paso and was in seri­ ous condition after surgery Tuesday. Still at Las C ruces M em orial are Brian McBride, a UT graduate student and team coach, who was in fair condition, and UT alumnus Jam es Martin, who was in serious condition, hospital officials said. Martin was attending the tournam ent as an assistant coach.

Wilson, 19, was elected pledge class president of the fraternity this fall. Some of Justin's friends said during the ceremony that though they had not known him for long, his life had affected them. UT President Robert Berdahl attended the service. Wilson was bom in Atlanta and attended Pace Academy in Atlanta before coming to the University. At Pace, he was a member of the N ational Honor Society, debate team, Spanish club and golf team. W ilson lived at the C astilian, a private d o rm ito ry at 2 3 2 3 San A n to n io S t.. RoseMarie VanScoy, general manager of the Castilian, said a lot of the residents knew Ju stin and w ere try in g to d eal w ith the tragedy. "It was a shock, of course," VanScoy said. "1 think people are handling this well. But they're still just trying to absorb it." VanScoy said she knew Justin personally, calling him "well-liked and a very popular tenant." VanScoy added that when she learned of the accident, she had to break the news to those at the Castilian who knew Justin well. "I informed the people personally who were close to him," VanScoy said. "I want to protect all of those people who are having a terrible time right now." Ellen W artella, dean of the C ollege of C om m unication, said the priority for the administration is getting those students still in New Mexico home safely. She said Mike Quinn, assistant to the dean for alumni rela­ tions, flew to New Mexico Tuesday to assist the accident victims and their families. "H e just went to do whatever he could for said W artella, w ho added the students, that Quinn is helping arrange transporta­ tion for the victims to get home. W artella added that the college will be "w orking with the counseling center and the dean o f stu d en ts o ffic e " to arran g e counseling for accident victim s and their friends. Students clash over coming out SHANNA GAUTHIER Daily Texan Staff Amid protests and arguments from other students, UT gay, lesbian and bisexu al stud ents took ad vantage of National Corning Out Day to express their sexuality openly Wednesday on the West Mall. The sponsors of the rally — the Lesbian, Bisexual and Gay Students' Association, the Gay and Lesbian Staff Association and the UT W om an's Group — decorated the West Mall with rainbow-colored balloons and signs with expressions like "Closets are made for clothes." But the members of the Young Conservatives of Texas stood on top of planters, faced rally participants and dis­ played signs of their own which told demonstrators, among other things, to "leave the country ." YCT members also held signs with phrases like, "Adam and Eve, not Adam and Steve," and "There is no pink in the flag." "It is not morally and ethically right," said Chet Reese, a YCT member. He added that homosexuals "tell you they are normal, but they have a mental disorder and do not want to admit it." State Rep. Glen M axey, D-Austm, the rally's keynote speaker, dismissed the protesters and said gay people will never achieve unity until they "come out." 'T m gay and I'm proud," Maxey said.

"W ith Clinton here, it's a really great opportunity for everyone to let him know what we think." The national Food Not Bombs organization, a homeless advocacy group, hopes to draw atten­ tion to itself by serving breakfast to the homeless during the speech. The other group, Austin G reens, established themselves just in time for the protest.

Cesar Chavez is an eastbound one-way street where it crosses Guadalupe. The driver of the pickup, Steve Guzman, 23, of Austin, has been charged with intoxi­ cation manslaughter. The driver of the pickup, Steve Guzman, 23, of Austin, has been charged with intoxica­ tion manslaughter, Burgess said. His bond has been set at $25,000. Lepley, w ho was w earing his seat belt when he was pulled from his car, was pro­ nounced dead at 5:32 a.m. in an operating room at Brackenridge Hospital, police said. Guzman was listed in good condition at Brackenridge Wednesday afternoon, hospital officials said. Burgess said intoxication manslaughter, a relatively new charge, is a second-degree felony punishable by up to 20 years in prison and a $10,000 fine. Burgess said police believe both drivers were under the influence of alcohol at the time of the accident, but declined to say why. Their blood-alcohol levels are still being determined, he said. "That is what the investigators believe based on their preliminary investigation," Burgess said. Lepley's death was caused by severe cra­ nial-cerebral injuries, said Andrea Simpson- Jones, a spokeswoman for the Travis County medical examiner's office. She added that the m edical exam iner should have L epley's blood alcohol content later this week. Burgess also said the speeds of the vehicles will not be released until the investigation is finished. Lepley's mother, Nancy Lepley, said she flew to Austin from Houston on the first plane she could catch Wednesday morning after receiving a call about 2:30 a.m. saying her son had been in a serious car accident. She said she was told about her son's death after she arrived in Austin. "He will really be missed," she said. "I am just very angry, mad and angry, that people should be out there like that. This kid had everything going for him. He was 23 years old, he was getting ready to graduate from college, and to be struck down like this, is just unfair." She added that Lepley had been out with a friend playing ptxil earlier in the evening and w as on his w ay home when his car was struck. "He was very creative. Fie had just started his own company called Burley Shoes Music. He played guitar in a band called Insex and he w anted to copyright m u sic," N ancy Lepley said. She said funeral arrangements have not been finalized, but services probably will be in Austin Friday. INSIDE THE TEXAN TODAY Weather First! Highs! In the 80s! Lows! In the 50s! Whoo-hoo!

ANDREW NELSON/Datty Texan Staff t Page 2 Thursday, October 12,1995 T he D aily T exan Dole defends conservative credentials out Associated Press MANCHESTER, N.H. — Agreeing .with one another more often than not, the R ep u b lican p re sid e n tial c a n d i­ dates used their first televised forum W ednesday to preach the virtu es of lower taxes and less government and the d a n g e r s of g iv in g P re s id e n t Clinton a second term. If the goal of Bob Dole's rivals com­ ing into the forum was to knock the GOP fro n t-ru n n e r off strid e , n o n e appeared to succeed. Dole delivered a crisp account of w hy he believed he w as the best Republican in the race and offered a detailed defense of his conservative credentials. At every tu rn , Dole said C linton was defending the status quo against a new Republican Congress trying to balance the budget, cut taxes and shift pow er from W ashington to the states. “ W e m u s t e lect s o m e o n e w h o know s how to m ake th at ch an g e," Dole said. "I will not permit the slow decline of America — a country that I love.” The forum got off to a rough, some­ w hat comical start when the WMUR- TV studio abruptly lost power. Gov. Steve Merrill delivered introductor)' rem arks in the dark, b u t the pow er retu rn ed just in tim e for the candi­ dates to face questioning in alphabeti­ cal order. . When his turn came, Dole couldn't resist poking fun at the pow er outage, thanking Merrill for his "enlightened rem arks.” A nother colorful m om ent T h e Daily T ex a n Permanent Staff E d ito r ..................................................................................................................................................................................Robert R ogers M anaging E d ito r .........................................................................................................................................................

(Last Business Day Prior to Publication) cam e as long-shot candidate M orry Taylor, an Illinois businessm an w ho has never run for public office, sug­ gested his rivals could not be trusted because "these men have 138 years of W ashington political experience.” In advance, it appeared that Texas Sen. Phil Gram m w as ready to aggres­ sively go after Dole, using a pre-forum rally to suggest that Dole was a politi­ cian all too ready to break his promis­ es. “ H ow are w e differen t from Bill Clinton if we do n't keep our prom is­ es?” Gramm asked at his rally. But the Texas senator made no such com parison d u rin g the forum , and never m entioned Dole by name. His toughest criticism of the Senate major­ ity le a d e r cam e w h e n G ra m m p le d g e d n o t to “ c u t d e a ls w ith D em ocrats in W ashington because y o u kn o w c u ttin g d e a ls w ith Democrats in W ashington is not going to bring back the American dream .” Several others also took issue with Dole, at least indirectly, hoping to chip into Dole's big lead here. " W e do not need to replace their set of professional politicians with our set of professional politicians," said com­ mentator Pat Buchanan. “ I think it w ill tak e a c a n d id a te from ou tsid e W ashin gton , D.C., to beat Bill Clinton,” said Alexander. Given the form at, which allow ed for no interaction am ong the cand i­ dates, the rival cam ps said it m ade little sense to level direct attacks. Most seem ed intent on introducing them selves to v oters beyond h a rd ­ core GOP ac tiv ists, given th a t the s t a t e 's le a d o f f p r im a r y is fo u r m onths away. Continued from page 1 The Victory Cam pus Fellowship, a cam pus Christian group, joined the YCTs in the protest against the hom o­ sexual lifestyle. "T he s p irit o f G od can c h a n g e [gays] because ho m o sex u ality is a lifestyle," said Gino Mingo, a member of the fellowship. But Sid Hall, a preacher at Trinity United Methodist Church w ho spoke at the rally, said gay students should be represented in the church. "M ost peo p le h av e an idea th a t churches are carrying signs against gays," Hall said. "The Bible is evolv­ ing. There should be full [inclusion] of gays and lesbians."

VIEWPOINT Aristide From those who cried a year ago that the U.S.-led occupation of Haiti would not achieve its objectives, the present situation com­ pels at best an embarrassed silence. Opponents of the interven­ tion have been slow to concede that the thousands of foreign troops in 1 laiti — most of them Americans — have improved the lot of Haiti's people. But it's true. Twelve months ago, when American soldiers first cam e ashore in Haiti, exiled President Jean-Bertrand Aristide may have seemed ill- prepared for the imposing challenges that he would face upon return­ ing In Washington, doubts about his mental stability compounded the questions about his commitment to national reconciliation, the depth of his popularity, and his grasp of H aiti's ills. Yet Aristide has answered most of those questions handily. Haiti is at peace. Its people are still desperately poor, and the country's econ­ omy still a basket case. But Haitians no longer endure the abuse and intimidation that have darkened most of their history. There now is opportunity, where before there had been only a wall of repression. The Haitian people, who recently voted in local and legislative elec­ tions marred by countless irregularities, nevertheless appeared to give overwhelming support to Aristide and his Lavalas movement. Voting fraud, though worrisome, can't begin to explain the m ovement's elec­ toral strength. To his credit, Aristide has spurned supporters who want him to run for a second term. After the elections he reiterated that he would step down, as the Constitution prescribes, when his term is up in February. That's also when the 6,000-strong U.N. force is scheduled to withdraw. With backing from the U.N. military contingent and an improving national police force, Aristide's government has disarmed or driven neo-Duvalierist thugs into hiding. He achieved this without resorting to public executions or vindictive mob rule. Aristide can be faulted for cronyism and poor administrative skills. By and large, he has surrounded him self with fawning disciples in key posts, many of whom aren't up to the critical tasks that they've been assigned. Nor d o e? Aristide seem ready to put his prestige behind any specific (and probably painful) econom ic recovery plan. Clearly, the president's honeymoon can't last forever. And he can't expect to run a country as he once ran his tiny church orphanage, with grace and charity alone. The essential job of peace and confidence- building is plainly a success. Now a hard economic reckoning must certainly follow. —Jason Kraus I mmigration fongress returned to its rewrite of the country's immigration laws as the Judiciary Committee resumed work on House Bill C ,2202. Sponsored by Rep. Lamar Smith, R-Texas, the bill would significantly reduce the number of immigrants admitted every year, as well a s completely eliminate certain categories of legal immigration. ..... ' ' Looking at the gross numbers, the Smith bill would reduce the num­ ber of employment based immigrants from a current level of 140,000 to 107,000 a year, and the number of family-sponsored immigrants from 480,000 to 330,000. While critics claim that the cuts in employer-based immigration would hurt America's competitiveness, the reductions in family-based immigration would cut the ideal of family re-unification to the quick. The Smith bill would deny entry to the adult children and siblings of Ann rican citizens and lawful permanent residents. W hile eliminat­ ing these categories should not pose a problem in the abstract, in prac­ tice they would heartlessly keep separated families separate. Because of the popularity of coming to America, the Immigration and Naturalization Service cannot process all the applications it receives. As a consequence, applicants in present family-based cate­ g o r i e s may w ait between 10 to 15 years before immigrating to the country. Such circumstances encourage fraud and illegal entry, but while attacking those who have avoided the rules, the Smith bill will ironic ally punish those who played by them. — Lamar Cravens Stadium must reflect desire for fun Next week, UT officials will evaluate pro­ C h ris B jom son TEXAN COLUMNIST us to the forefront of technological innovation. posals to expand Memorial Stadium. It appears they will be doing the traditional upgrades to the stadium like adding luxury boxes, expanding training facilities, putting grass on the field and adding several thousand seats. A multistory building is planned for the north end of the stadium. The building will hold athlet­ ic offices, academic facilities and historic collec­ tions. How boring! They're OK, but they don't add personality to a team, a stadium and a university in dire need of a defining campus structure to unify campus spirit and football performance. The University should take a chance and do something bold and fun. A stadium should define a team's personality, and all Memorial Stadium reflects is a lack of enthusiasm for our team and our University. "Touchdown Why not m im ic N otre D am e's Jesus" with a gigantic "Touchdown Longhorn" on the new building on the stadium's north side? Adding seats on the field will be a plus, but only if they can be filled by fans who w on't wear their Sunday best to football games. The team would probably play a lot better if its fans would just show some life. But when fans are so incred­ ibly concerned with camouflaging their flasks and keeping the starch in their shirts, you should expect a boring performance. Those new seats should be filled only by the Longhorn Hellraisers and people wearing polyester burnt orange. What about the acoustics? Granted, our fans don't yell much and when we do, it's generally to fire the coach or bench the quarterback. But, if we replaced the cheerleaders' megaphones with con- cert-quality amplification and enclosed the wind tunnel, there would be a lot more noise. We might even pay attention to the cheerlead­ ers and force them to get some new material. The new building on the north end is a great idea. Let's make some good academic use out of it as well. We could have engineering students run computer simulations during the game that control wind speed and direction during kickoffs and field goals. Our physics students could test the affects of ultra-violet light when it is aimed at A&M 's quarterback. This would certainly move Another use of the new building should be a statutory hall. We could honor the people who deserve statues but don't yet have them. Martin Luther King will get his place on campus, but what about Lyndon Johnson, John Connally, Dar­ rell Royal and Earl Campbell? We could even put the YCT's statue of Neil Sheffield with Reveille in the new building. All of this will be expensive. But, we could give Bevo a Reebok brand and let Pepsi open an amusement park to pay for it. We could also dump Taco Bell for McDonalds so people would actually eat the stadium food. M ost of this is in jest. But the point is really sim ­ ple. College football should reflect a university's enthusiasm. It should be about having fun on a Saturday afternoon, not worrying about whether a starched shirt gets wrinkled. And the way we approach building our stadium should reflect our desire to have fun. After all, if w e're going to cheer for our football team or have a larger stadium, we should enjoy it for the entertainm ent value.

Microsoft Windows nothing to applaud The latest craze in the computer Aaron Levine TEXAN COLUMNIST software market has been the introduction of M icrosoft's Windows 95. Not since the original introduction of W indows has there been so much money and time wast­ ed on such a buggy, unstable and flawed operating system. The operating system of any com­ puter is the critical link between the hardware and the software. It is the language that enables the comput­ er's brain, the CPU, to communicate the ideas, or software. that language Windows 95 fails because it is a prim itive ignores O S /2 and Macintosh applications, which make up 25 percent of the software market. W indows 95 is dif­ ficult to install and is less efficient than O S /2. Additionally, W indows 95 uses cooperative multitasking instead of the better designed pre-em ptive Finally, M icrosoft delayed multitasking. (Multitasking occurs when different applications use dif­ ferent data or files at the same time.) the release of W indows 95 for two years allegedly to debug and improve it. Instead, the delay may have been due to the creativity and imagina­ tion shown in the TV and radio ads and not the software itself. In the computer world, each soft­ ware program and hardware device speaks a different language. W in­ dows '95 alone cannot possibly translate all of them, and computer users are left in a virtual Tower of Babel. In addition, Microsoft designed Windows 95 to multitask well, but M icrosoft chose cooperative multi­ tasking, .in w hich program s or processes must voluntarily give up use of the CPU. This is necessary to prevent programs from crashing or taking complete control of the CPU. Microsoft has also mastered the game of corporate takeovers and has used it to take control of the com ­ puter software world. The programmers in these innov­ com panies, which made ative M icrosoft great, jobs, lose while M icrosoft's owner, Bill Gates, profits greatly yet is unable to improve and support his software. their to connect When users the Microsoft Software Network, their hardware and software info are both scanned for compatibility. I person­ ally find this an invasion of my pri­ vacy; does Microsoft really need to know and store this information? If Microsoft were to become the only choice, then M icrosoft and Gates would become all-knowing and all powerful. M icrosoft's com ­ petitors in both the software and hardware world need to unify their efforts to prevent this from happen­ ing. Their main software com peti­ tors, Lotus /IB M , Novell, Borland and others, need to start producing versions of their products for O S /2 Warp, X-Windows and System 8. Finally/ computer users need to reject M icrosoft's notion that their softw are is the best and only choice for their needs. M icrosoft cannot possibly give every user technical support. The day may come when we will not be forced to have M icrosoft's logo on our software. The only alternative to Windows 95 is a software world dominated by Microsoft.

FIRING LINE GOP created huge debt M ichael G eorge ("D oggett attack off base," Firing Line, Oct. 10) writes a salty enough letter, but he is only displaying his ignorant e if he blames liberals for "the past 40 years of destruction." The last time I checked, it was the last two Republican presidents (including that old curm udgeon,. Ronald Reagan) who managed to rack up the largest federal debt in the history of our country by selling out buge defense contract to their rich pals (remember the $200 hammers?). 1 would advise George and other YCT members to stop stroking their guns and put down that picture of Pat Buchanan long enough to pull their heads out of their asses. Brian Gaar Business sophomore Hom osexuality not bad There is a major problem with the Coun­ t e r p o i n t column written by Michael Trust ("N o, proposal will depress gay teens," Oct. 11). In it he uses the argument that hom osex­ uality is based on the environment. This argument has been used time and time again to say that homosexuals "choose" that life and or lifestyle when in actuality this simply isn't true. More and more research is showing that homosexuality is more than likely geneti­ cally determined and hence is a state of the natural evolution of human beings. This is the s a m e argument that can be found in the reasoning for heterosexual behavior. What this m e a n s is that homosexuality is neither abnormal nor unnatural. Hence homosexuals deserves rights and under­ standing that the heterosexual community already receives. Also society cannot "cu re" people of what they are, as Trust states in one of his examples. This rationale is absurd. Homo­ sexuality is a part of our genetic history and should be dealt with in the same man­ ner as other genetic issues from hair color to race or gender. These cannot be con­ trolled any more than sexuality. It is just that we choose to only see the behavior and not the reasons for that behavior. Benjamin Sharff Psychology senior Anti-gay experts bogus A guest columnist, Michael Trust, argues against the Austin Independent School Dis­ trict's proposals for addressing the needs of gay and lesbian youth (Oct. 11). My question is on what authority does he peddle this baloney? For example, Trust writes that "the pre­ vailing opinion among the psychological community is that homosexual inclinations may stem from child abuse, unhealthy rela­ tionships with or without a father figure and exposure to homosexual activity. Nothing could be further from the truth. These mythical "causes of homosexuality have been discounted for decades, and the Psychological Association A m erican dropped homosexuality from its list of mental disorders almost 20 years ago. I also challenge Trust to supply the cre­ dentials of the "experts" he cites to back his these anti-gay viewpoints. Many of "experts" are paid mouthpieces for the Radical Right. They hold degrees from dubious "Christian" colleges and are far out of the mainstream of modern psychol­ ogy and psychiatry. As for Trust's ridiculous claims that homosexuality can be reversed, it must be noted that very few reputable practitioners even attempt to change an individual's sex­ ual orientation anymore. Those who do meet with limited success— and even then, it is measured more by a patient's ability to suppress his or her natural sexual inclina­ tions than by a genuine "reversal." Finally, Trust claims that the Masters and Johnson Institute "boasts of long-term success rates of 71.6 percent for restoring formerly gay clients." That's the first I have ever seen such a statistic, and I am well read in these mat­ ters. Again, I challenge Trust to back up this claim. My guess is that he can't, and that his entire argument is more fiction than fact. Timothy Palmer Austin resident any other persons. "Further, the American Psychiatric Asso­ ciation supports and urges the enactment of civil rights legislation at the local, state, and federal level that would offer homo­ sexual citizens the same protections now guaranteed to others on the basis of race, creed, color, etc. "Further, the American Psychiatric Asso­ ciation supports and urges the repeal of all discriminatory legislation singling out homosexual acts by consenting adults in private."

Don’t trust Michael Trust Michael Trust's guest column is replete with misinformation about homosexuality, iru luding his characterization of "prevail­ ing opinion among the psychological com ­ munity". The American Psychiatric Association removed homosexuality from its official "Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of M en­ tal Disorders" (DSM-III) by action of its Board of Trustees on December 14, 1973. At the same time, the Board officially approved the following "Position State­ ment on Homosexuality and Civil Rights": "W hereas homosexuality per se implies no impairment in judgment, stability, relia­ bility, or general social or vocational capa­ bilities, therefore, be it resolved that the American Psychiatric Association deplores all public and private discrimination against hom osexuals in such areas as emplovment, housing, public accommoda­ tion, and licensing, and declares that no burden of proof of such judgment, capaci­ ty, or reliability shall be placed upon homosexuals greater than that imposed on B o b S tew art UT sta ff UT Internet services busy Trumpet Winsock is the "open sesame' to the wonders of Internet or even some­ thing so mundane as my e-mail, and list- servs for class. But last night, and at 6 a.m. today, Winsock is giving me - instead of endless "busy" - a sound like an ambulance. Appropriate, because Winsock needs help. It was only last year that I got SLIP and could use it any time. Then some func­ tionary with more zeal than foresight about capacity sold a freshman class on SLIP. You could forget it from 6 p.m. to 1 a.m. Another class has UT Connect in hand, and now you can't get on after 11 a.m. Next semester I predict that everyone will have an account and nobody will be able to use it. Or perhaps it will occur sooner. I mean, who would have believed "N o Carrier" at 6 a.m.? Helen E Jensen Graduate student in library information services Reagan helped revenue This is in response to David W alker's col­ umn on Oct. 10 ("Supply-side economics bad for Am erica") in which he discounted the ideas of supply-side economics. W hether supply-side econom ics is a valid theory is indeed debatable, but what I don't understand is why critics refuse to report the truth about the 1980s. W alker argues that Reagan's tax cuts and "low -inflation growth" are responsible for the deficit. In truth, however, tax revenues doubled under Reagan. Doubled! So how is it possi­ ble that tax cuts were responsible for the deficit? W alker needs to address the fact that it was not a lack of tax revenue that caused the deficit. It was too much spending. Maybe then he'll reconsider his solution to today's fiscal problem — which he believes would best be solved by sacrifice and high­ er taxes.

Rachel Reiland Fine arts junior Coming out success Thanks to a devoted LBGSA "National Coming Out Day" organi­ zational team. This National Com­ ing Out Day was a great success, with hundreds of students stopping to watch and participate. The LBGSA got great positive exposure through student speakers, and such distinguished guests as state representative Glen Maxey. Even the YCT helped out, making them selves look bad by yelling offensive epithets at the speakers and holding up inflammatory signs and conversely making us look bet­ ter. UT students proved on Wednes­ day that they support out gay stu­ dents by a large majority. It is heart­ ening to see so many out gay stu­ dents and so many other students supporting them, even in the face of small-minded adversity. Michael Dreyer Biology ju n io r Protesters fear gays Today as I walked across the West Mall, I observed two groups of peo­ ple setting up for the Coming Out Day rally. One group's purpose was clear to me. Today is a day for gays and les­ to publicly (or privately) bians acknowledge that we differ from m ost in that those we are romanti­ cally attracted to happen to be of the same gender. The other group's purpose was less clear. They were preparing to protest the fact hat we have chosen live our lives as they do, publicly, not covering up who we are, who we date, who we love. Maybe they protest because they are afraid we are trying to gain "spe­ cial rights." They are correct. We are seeking very special rights; those granted to every other American cit­ izen in the original Constitution of the United States and subsequently the Bill of Rights. More likely, however, they protest because they are afraid. Most are afraid because they are uneducated regarding homosexuali­ ty. It is unfortunate that they choose to protest that which they know nothing about instead of using the occasion to learn more about us, who we are, and w hat we believe. Jamie Southerland UT staff Recycling beneficial In the Oct. 2 Daily Texan, Kevin Butler gave some reasons why he thinks recycling is a waste of time and money, am ong that m unicipal collection costs are so high they cannot be recovered by selling the recyclable material. them He also said hauling and prepro­ cessing recyclable materials causes harmful emissions, that virgin mate­ rials used to make paper and plastic are so cheap there is not a big market for recycled goods, that we have m ore available landfill space than you can imagine, and that landfills d o n 't debase esthetics or pollute ground water. Allow me to make these points to the contrary. Landfills can most cer­ tainly pollute ground water — but more likely nearby surface water (rivers, streams, lakes) — if they aren't properly situated and main­ tained. Many landfills have been closed because they sim ply ran out of space. State and federal anti-pollu­ tion regulations are making it tough to open new ones. But one of the most potent threats to landfills is not legally driven. It's plain old human nature — the NIMBY factor (not in my back yard). Since 1985, more than 700 landfills have been closed in Texas. As of 1994, there were only 242 landfills left in the state, and projections are that only 228 will be left by the end of this year. In the meantime, Texas' popula­ tion is soaring. Where to put all that trash we Texans generate, not to m ention the trash generated by other states looking for landfill space? Butler seems to think we are in a static situation here. The indis­ putable fact is that the population of Texas and the entire country is esca­ lating while cheap, close-in, easily acquired landfill space is a thing of the past. The only reasonable answer to this dilemma is to recycle as much of that trash as possible. Why argue with what motivates people to col­ lect reusable material? It is true that the price of recy­ clable material rises and falls with demand. It is also true that demand is high right now, and part of the reason that some foreign business­ men are buying up recyclables to be used to manufacture various goods. H auling and processing recy­ clables does indeed cost money and cause some pollution, as anybody who has been in the scrap metal business will admit. In the final analysis, supply-and-dem and eco­ nomics will prevail whether it is for old newspapers, used plastic or alu­ minum cans. We m ust continue to im prove recycling technology and obtain information that will yield an accu­ rate read as to what is going on in the marketplace currently and what that means for the future. Recycling is here to stay not because it makes us feel good but because we are running out of avail­ able landfill space, demand for recy­ cled goods is growing, and there are profits to be made. Garry Mauro Texas land commissioner Justice system good I know that mine is probably one of a thousand letters you have received or will receive on this sub­ ject, but I just want to get something off my chest and leave this whole O.J. thing behind me. Ever since the not guilty verdict came in I have been listening to nothing but talk on this subject on whether he did it. I think what people fail to realize is that the jury did not declare him innocent; they declared him not guilty. The American justice system oper­ ates on the premise of innocent until proved guilty beyond a reasonable doubt. I have spent more than the aver­ age amount of time listening to this case and caught just about all of the closing arguments, and when it was all said and done my verdict was I just don't know. I have a feeling that was basically the same verdict that the jury came up with on Monday after just a few hours of deliberation. If that was the case it is only right that the ruling should be not guilty. I don't think many people take this into consideration when they speak their minds about the trial. I think we have to understand that the justice system we have operates on the basis that it is better to have 10 guilty m urderers running around free that to convict one innocent man. I'm not saying that is right or wrong, just that it is the way it is in America. The O.J. defense team managed to poke holes in key pieces of evidence and used the racial issue only in its attempt to counter Mark Furhman's testimony, which I feel was the right thing to do since it was proved that he was a lying racist who probably did plant evidence at the crime scene. Since we do live in America and the defense did do their job effec­ tively enough to create a reasonable doubt, he should be set free. Maybe he did do it, but coming from someone who has been accused of something I didn't do, I can say I like the system we have, and I would never trade my free­ dom for incarceration because we had to prove our innocence instead of leaving it up to the prosecution to prove our guilt.

In the first half, they fired the can­ non only two times, and one was while Rice was kicking off after a touchdown. They did not fire the cannon after either of Dawson's field goals or after Adams' touchdown, nor did they fire it for the extra points of the ensuing kickoffs. The University owes it to the fans and to tradition to make sure that Smokey is fired correctly as it has been in the past. The University should make sure that whoever is firing Smokey knows how to fire it and, more im portant, when. Kevin Sheppard Mathematics senior Cartoon was bigoted The cartoon of the pope on Wednesday, rather than portraying the problems of the church in Amer­ ica, a serious issue for Catholics in this country and at the University, chose to portray the perceptions of a bigot who doesn't understand what the conflict is about. The majority of American Catholics and the pope have differ­ ences of opinion on several issues. Birth control, the death penalty, homosexuality in the church, abor­ tion and women in the clergy are a few of those issues. The cartoonist was at least correct in naming some of them. However, the "O.J. did it — Jesus told me" button and the quotation attached to the pope were so off- base and inflammatory that what­ ever worthwhile content was pre­ sent went right out the window. Anyone who has knowledge of John Paul II would know "those people are gonna burn" is the antithesis of his message to the world. 1 adm it that I differ from the pope in many of my opinions about how I should lead my life as a Catholic. I look forward to the day the church relaxes its opinions and makes amends toward members alienated in the past. However, I believe the way to achieve this is prayer, discussion, and active participation the church. in This cartoon should be cut out and pasted into the scrapbook that I know somebody m ust be keeping 2 Dozen Roses ‘19.95 Cash & Carry Casa Verde Florist 4 5 1 - 0 6 9 1 Daily S p e c ia ls FTD • 45* & G uadalupe • On UT Shuttle R t * O N E H O U R E6 SUDE PROCESSING 24X ■ *4.95 36X * *6.55 PHOTO STUDENTS - ADDITIONAL 10% DISCOUNT CUSTOM PHOTOGRAPHIC LABS W.

Sim pson verdict will have a negative effect on the public's view of black men. "I'm afraid of how w hite people w ill view A frican -A m erican meii -now," said government and history senior Antoine Holmes, who attended the forum. "I'm afraid that from now *on they'll be saying, 'H e got away, but you, my brother, you w on't get away.'" Delta Sigma Theta sponsored the forum, titled "The Color of Justice," “ which concentrated on the role race played in both the trial itself and the public's perception of the verdict. "Some of our members noticed ten­ sion betw een black and w hite stu- * dents after the verdict was handed down last week," said Sherial Cubit, a journalism senior and Delta Sigm a Theta member. Cubit added that the forum was intended to "break down that tension and see if there is an actu­ al [race] p roblem , or if it's m edia hype." About 30 sorority m em bers and students attended the forum, moder­ ated by journalism professor M er­ cedes De Uriarte. Discussion ranged from opinions on the verdict to audi­ Katrine Goodson, a radio-television-film senior, said she felt she was singled out in class discus­ sions about the trial because of her race. Goodson said one of her professors had specifically ques­ tioned her in class after the verdict. Goodson said. Some said stereotypes about the A m erican ju stic e system clo u d ed impressions of the verdict. "The perceptions of the black com­ munity in black America today are that w hite people have justice and black people have just us," said Harry Hazelwood, a pharmacology graduate student. "W e need to get rid of these perceptions that racially polarize us. Once we get past these perceptions and focus on things we have in com­ mon, all people can embrace justice." Others, however, expressed doubt about the effectiveness of the judicial system. "I had m ixed feelings about the whole thing. When the trial began, I th o u g h t th a t they w ere g o in g to make an exam ple out of O.J. Sim p­ so n ," said fin a n ce ju n io r M arlen W hitley, d ire cto r of the M in o rity Information Center. He said police, in their investiga­ tion, had stopped looking for other suspects after Simpson was arrested, and police did not look into the back­ grounds of m urder victim s N icole Simpson and Ronald Goldman. But he added, "Know ing the sys­ tem, it seemed to me that none of that ' would matter." Whitley also agreed the case had a negative effect on the public's view of * black men. "T h e sta te of b la ck m ales on a w h ole b e c a u se of th is case has become suspect," Whitley said. De Uriarte commented on the fact that no white students attended the forum. "W e w ere hoping for a dialogue across diversity, but there is limited diversity here," De Uriarte said. Cubit said planners had hoped for "some participation from white stu­ dents." "B u t I guess I sh o u ld n 't be su r­ prised," Cubit said, adding that there has been limited white participation in any of the sorority's activities.

X THURSDAY, OCTOBER 11,1995 8 T h e D a i l y T e x a n STATE & LOCAL Priorities First! will continue to fight Local group vows to continue watching fo r spending projects considered wasteful FEDERICO CURA______________ D aily Texan Staff Priorities First!, which gained notori­ ety fighting a proposed baseball stadi­ um for a Class AAA team, will continue to be an active political organization, beginning with a fight against a pro­ posed stadium in Williamson Couhty, members said Wednesday. Several prom inent m em bers of the organization gathered outside City Hall to say they intend to help with efforts in W illiam son C ounty to fight a bond- issuance election that will help pay for a stadium for a Class AA baseball team. Williamson County commissioners still m ust decide whether to have the bond \ ote, which would be held in the spring of 96. Priorities First! led the fight against a $10 m illio n b o n d m e asu re, w hich would have helped pay for a $22 mil­ lion stadium in Southeast Austin. Vot­ ers rejected the measure Saturday by a 63-37 percent margin. The Phoenix Firebirds, a Class AAA baseball team, had promised to relocate in Austin had the measure passed. The team would have covered the stadium 's remaining $12 million cost. But despite the m easure's failure Sat­ u rd a y , form er C ity C o u n cilm em b er G eorge H um phrey, a Priorities First! mem ber, said the group will not dis­ solve. "This is som ething that is going to continue," H um phrey said. He added the group will call a public meeting in the next three to four weeks to deter­ mine what its next move will be. The group worked together very well and proved to be very effective, said former Councilmember Bob Larson. "This coalition of liberals, conserva­ tives, R ep ublicans, D em ocrats from w h a te v e r w alk of th e co m m u n ity worked together because people knew" that using public funds for the stadium was wrong, Larson said. Members say the group still needs to re-evaluate its priorities, ad d ed Jack Haden, a Priority First! chairman. "We are against the use of any public funds to pay for any private project," Haden said. But D avid W eeks, w ho acted as a political consultant and advertiser in su p p o rt of the s ta d iu m , said th a t though he supports prioritizing basic services, the stadium would have made a good investment for Austin. "The stadium would pay for itself," said Weeks, a partner in the advertising firm Weeks, Correa & Co. Weeks added that most of Priorities First!'s money came through the Tax­ payers' Defense Fund from Bill Pohl, a real estate investor who owned the land where the Williamson County stadium would be built. He said Priorities First! is sure to lose a lot of funding as it lines up against the other stadium. "If it wasn't for the Pohl group, they w ouldn't have made it," Weeks said. H aden said Priorities First! will not directly participate in the organization of opposition to another bond election. But Hum phrey said another chapter of the group may form in Williamson County to oppose such a bond. ROBERT PATTON/Daily Texan Staff Jack Haden, chairman of Priorities First!, spoke about the future of the orga­ nization Wednesday morning. Standing next to Haden are supporter Kirk Mitchell and Linda Curtis, treasurer of the group. H u m p h re y a d d e d tha-t A u stin inevitably will attract another profes­ sional baseball team, only not at taxpay­ ers expense. "We are the 23rd largest city in the U.S.," he said. "It's a plum." Proposal would lower legal blood alcohol level for minors BRIAN ROSAS_______________________ Daily Texan Staff Defenders of a new proposal to dramatically lower the legal blood-alcohol limit for juvenile drivers told a state committee W ednesday that the measure is need­ ed to reduce teen drunken driving fatalities. State Sen. Jane Nelson, R-Flower Mound, presented a "zero tolerance" plan to the interim Senate Commit­ tee on Juvenile Driving While Intoxicated Laws. The plan would prohibit m inors from driving w ith any measurable blood alcohol content. The "zero tolerance" proposal w ould reduce the legal limit for minors' blood alcohol level to .02 of a percent. Under Texas law, minors are allowed legally to drive with a blood alcohol level of .10 of a percent, the same level allowed for drinkers of legal age. "Texas has the highest juvenile DWI threshold in the nation," Nelson told the committee. "That's ridicu­ lous. If it's illegal for kids under 21 to drink or possess alcohol... it should be a punishable offense for a minor to drive with any measurable level of blood alcohol." Nelson's "zero tolerance" plan also m andates that teenagers drivers licenses be suspended for at least a six-month period or revoked entirely. Nelson also proposed a youthful drunken driver visitation program, which would require minors con­ victed of driving while intoxicated to visit hospital emergency rooms or county coroners' offices to see the effects drunken driving has on lives. "The intention is not to shock, but to im press on these kids that dangerous actions have consequences," Nelson said. According to Texas D epartm ent of Public Safety records, the DWI fatality rate of 16- and 17-year-olds is twice as high as the rate for drivers older than 25, and rates for drivers 18-20 are almost three times as high for those older than 25. Some opponents of Nelson's proposal, said although the plan has good intentions, it may threaten the civil liberties of many youths. "If they are going to lower the level for one class of people, they should lower the level for everyone," said Jay Jacobson, executive director of the American Civil Liberties Union. Added Gary Johnson, spokesman for the Texas Lib­ ertarian Party, "We at the Texas Libertarian Party have always opposed minors having a different set of laws than adults." Lt. Gov. Bob Bullock appointed Sen. Royce West, D- Dallas, to serve as committee chairman. Sens. Eddie Lucio, D-Brownsville, Florence Shapiro, R-Plano, Jim Turner, D-Crockett, and Jeff Wentworth, R-San Anto­ nio, will serve on the committee charged with study­ ing alternatives to current underage DWI law.

B ut h e a d d e d th a t " h a te c rim e a c tiv ity increased in other areas of the state." A lm ost 1,400 h ate crim es w ere rep o rted stat- w ide betw een 1992 and 94.

In opening statements of the offi­ c ia ls ' fed eral b id -rig g in g tria l, A ssista n t U .S. A tto rn ey G reg Surovic told jurors County Judge J. Edgar Ruiz facilitated a scheme to give more than $1 million in county business to favored companies. "Edgar Ruiz ran this county. No decision in this county was made without his approval and his bless­ ing," Surovic said. In return, Surovic said, Ruiz and the other officials received more than $25,000 in cash and free airline tickets from former county purchas­ ing agent Ramiro Gonzalez. Gonzalez, who prosecutors con­ tend served as the go-between for the o fficials and the com panies, pleaded guilty to reduced charges in exchange for his testimony. "T h ere was a conspiracy going on. They w orked tog eth er to defraud the citiz e n s of H idalgo County out of hundreds of thou­ sand s of d o lla rs ," Su rovic said. "They went along with it because [Gonzalez] would give them a kick- back out of his pocket." Surovic said Gonzalez at one time was a "close, personal friend " of several of the defendants and often join ed in w eekly pok er gam es whose participants included Ruiz. Ruiz a lle g e d ly p ro fited m ost from the sch em e. He receiv ed th o u san d s of d o lla rs in b rib es, in clu d in g a $12,000 paym ent in June 1993, and num erous airline tickets to Houston and Las Vegas, Surovic said. "You're going to hear how Jesus E dgar Ruiz liked to go to Las Vegas," he told jurors. Surovic told the jurors it would be up to them "to fix a very broken system." Also accused are county commis­ sio n ers Sam u el San ch ez and Abelardo Arcaute; former Commis­ sioner Leonardo Camarillo; County Drainage District 1 Director Joaquin Cerda and Cerda's secretary, Imel- da Villarreal; and Head Start Direc­ tor Luciano Ozuna. They face a total of 117 counts of charges inclu ding con sp iracy to commit mail fraud, bribery, money laundering and extortion. All have pleaded innocent. Defense attorneys tried to shift the blame to G onzalez, who was appointed by Ruiz and the county commissioners. Joe Cisneros, Ruiz's attorney, said Gonzalez masterminded the scheme along with several business owners. "Some of these things were done by Ramiro Gonzalez but not by my client," Cisneros said. "The mistake [Ruiz] made ... was appointing this self-admitted thief. '•' Gonzalez told "fantastic stories" im plicating the seven officials to save himself, Cisneros said. "T h e devil himself made a deal with the government." Cisneros also disputed Surovic's assertions that Ruiz "ra n " the coun­ ty- "This man ... is the least powerful m an in cou n ty gov ern m en t. He d o e s n 't have the co n tro l Mr. Surovic would like to believe he has," he said. Fran cisco Enriqu ez, San ch ez's attorney, said it was "im possible" that the officials conspired together because several of them were politi­ cal foes, in clu d in g Sanchez and Ruiz. "T h ey have been political ene­ mies from the beginning of their careers," Enriquez said.

Besides describing Beckley as em otionally drained, O ffutt said no one remarked on his condition fo llo w in g his re le a se from the C ERESO state prison, w here he had been held since the weekend. Beckley was arrested Saturday on the Mexican side of the Bridge of the Americas while apparently holding his 9mm pistol on three men suspected of assaulting an El Paso motorist, according to Mexi­ can authorities. The other three men were ques­ tioned and released after it was determined they had not commit­ ted any crimes in Mexico. But B eck ley w as put in to a holding cell at the Federal Attor­ ney G e n e r a l's o ffic e S a tu rd a y night and transferred to the state p riso n Su n d ay a fte r b ein g charged. A judge later ruled Beckley was eligible for bail and the bond was posted early Tuesday. But Offutt said a^ p ro b lem w ith in c o rre c t paperwork delayed the sergeant's release for several hours. She said now that B eck ley is back, military officials will begin review ing Beckley's actions dur­ ing the chase. Authorities have indicated it is too early to tell whether Beckley will face any disciplinary action, Offutt said. RED WING PECOS THE BOOT! Red Wing Shoe Store 8440 Burnet Rd.

On Wednesday, three people took themselves out of three different races. An East Texas legislator said he would not run for Congress; a Dallas judge dropped out of a race for the Texas Supreme Court; and a former Dallas,County Democratic leader said he does not want to be state party chairman. Although he said many people urged him to run, state Sax Bill Ratliff, R-Mount Pleasant, announced that he will not be a candidate for Congress in the 1st Dis­ trict Ratliff said he believes he can have a bigger impact by remaining in the Texas Senate, where he chairs the Education Committee and serves on the Legislative Budget Board and Finance Committee. U S. Rep. Jim Chapman, D-Sulphur Springs, earlier announced that he would not seek re-election in the 1st District. He is considering a challenge to U S. Sen. Phil Gramm, R-Texas. "It is flattering that a number of people have indicat­ ed that I would be a leading candidate for the [congres­ sional] position," Ratliff said. Houston lawyer John Odam, who was a top aide to former Democratic Gov.

Dallas-area high school teacher Victor Morales also wants the Democratic Senate nomination, and state Sen. John Montford, D-Lubbock, is considering tibe race. In Dallas, District Judge David Brooks, a Republican, said he would stop running for the Supreme Court race since Gov. George Bush appointed two other Republi­ cans to vacancies on that bench. Bush last month named James Baker of Dallas and Greg Abbott of Houston to fill seats vacated by the res­ ignations of Democratic Justices Jack Hightower and Bob Gammage. Brooks said he did not need to run because "our goal was to replace the liberal philosophy which has too long dominated the Texas Supreme Court with sound judicial conservatism, legal scholarship and strict con­ struction of the law." Also Wednesday, former Dallas County Democratic leader Ken Molberg said he would sit out the race for state party chairman. (eyecare) VISION CENTERS y " Dr. James A. Dugas Dr. Nark A. Licatino 224 W.

Save it, he's not going anywhere. “ The w ay I feel right now I will stay in coaching. Period/' Holtz said. “ I'm a coach and that's what I want to do and there's nothing out there that attracts me more than coaching does. I have every intention of coming back to Notre Dame next year." at It's been one month since sur­ geons the M ayo Clinic removed a bulging disk in H oltz's neck that w as com pressing his spinal cord and causing w eakness in his arm s and legs. If left untreated, the condition could have left Holtz paralyzed. Doctors said Holtz w ouldn't be able to coach for at least three to four w eeks after the Sept. 12 surgery, but he w as back on the practice field six days later. He w as pacing the sidelines Sept. 30 at Ohio State, but felt so lousy afterward that he returned to the press box for last weekend's gam e at Washington. He will be in the press box again Saturday at Army. Holtz said Tuesday he consid­ ered taking the rest of the season off to recuperate, but it w as a fleeting thought. Notre Dame had lost to Northwestern in its home opener, and there w ere three back-to-back again st ranked opponents coming up. gam es “ A lot of people say, 'You're crazy to come b a c k ,'... but had we won our opening ball gam e, had we been on a high, I maybe would not have even come back this year," Holtz said. “ I just wanted to be with these guys, whether it was good or bad, but be with them because I thought that w as what w as important right now ." BRIAN DAVIS Daily Texan Staff After TCU won their SWC opener against Houston, Frogs head coach Pat Sullivan has expressed more concern over the team's 3-1 record than he w ould if TCU w as 0-4. Both of TCU 's starting corner- backs, Godfrey White and Chuck McWilliams, along with free safety Mikyha Martin are out for Satur­ day's gam e against Rice. All three players started the year for TCU, but now backups fill their shoes. Only six players will dress for the H om ed Frogs' secondary Saturday. "I'm concerned about our football team with the injuries w e've got in some key positions," Sullivan said. "W e'd been so lucky in the past and we really hadn't had any serious injuries." "O ur preparation has been pretty good, but the problem has been get­ ting people out to practice to get som e the course of the week," Sullivan said. consistency through Junior cornerback Cedric Allen filled* in for McW illiams again st Houston and had nine tackles and an interception. A gainst UH, the Frogs avoided their nickel package SWC FOOTBALL when possible and played a more run-protective defense. Being rushed into the scheme and practice repetitions is redshirt fresh­ man Lenward Bentley. But Sullivan admitted that Bentley is a backup play­ er and has not had much practice time. "We just finished preparation for practice [Wednesday], and we're try­ ing to find enough to go seven-on- seven versus scouts," Sullivan said. With no secondary help, the pres­ sure falls on TCU's linebackers. Rice has a spread-option offense which relies on play-action passing and the success of the option on the ground. Cedric Allen, Rick LaFavers and Chris Staten are three players that Sullivan thinks are solid players in TCU's 4-3 defensive set. ■ "Anytim e you play a wishbone team that throws the ball and basi­ cally throws the ball off play-action, you have to stop the run first," Sulli­ van said. "O ur linebackers have to do a great job at recognition, and they have to know the difference between the run and pass."

Slocum applauded the Southeast­ ern Conference when the SEC sus­ pended the officiating crew from the Arkansas-Alabam a gam e for deci­ sions on questionable calls. Slocum w ould like to see the sam e actions taken in the SWC after losing to Texas Tech, 14-7, on Oct. 7. "From a coaching standpoint, it's a bitter pill to swallow, but if the coach says anything about it, he w ould be labeled as a crybaby," Slocum said. "I have sent my com­ ments to [the SWC office] and the tapes that go with it." ■ In Houston, the Cougars are 0-5, but they are finally playing their first gam e in the Astrodome. Head coach Kim Helton is glad to be home after dropping the first five gam es away from the 'Dome. "We feel comfortable on the sur­ face," Helton said. "I'm so happy about going to the 'Dome, it will feel like playing a home gam e." "There are a lot of freshmen who have not been there, so we had better run them over there so they know where their home is," Helton said. UH should play a press man-to- man defensive coverage Saturday night against Baylor to stop the Bears' multiple formation offense. Helton looks for com erbacks Thomathan Good and Edwin Sai to play well against BU's four-wideout spread. "I have been extremely pleased with his effort," Helton said of G ood's recent play for UH. "Sai, who w as a walk-on for us, is playing well so we'll try to match up the best seven on seven."

Now there's an unflattering new book out called King o f the Cowboys, The Life and Times o f Jerry Jones that portrays the Dallas Cowboys owner as a shady deal-cutter and a womanizer. "I'v e read most of it and in every chapter there is a little bit of truth but a whole lot of National Enquirer," Jones said. "I'm not about to spend the next month helping the author figure out which is which. There are just so many things not true from a per­ sonal perspective. T hat's all I want to say about it." The Adam s Publishing Co. book starts with how Jones made his money through oil patch drilling gambles. It documents his wheeling and dealing and what the book calls sweetheart deals that helped him make enough money to pay $140 million to Bum Bright for the team in 1989. The oil and gas deals still have political repercussions in Arkansas. Johnson occurred There's a chapter on how he fired Tom Landry and the way the blow out between him and Jim m y in Orlando during an NFL meeting. It details the hiring of Barry Switzer and how despised Jones has become by such NFL owners as Cleveland's Art Modell. It mentions how' Jones used to bet on college and NFL games in the 1970s and 1980s before he became an owner of the team. The book quotes numerous for­ mer players of Landry's on how shabbily Jones has treated them. However, the most damaging chapter to Jones is the one entitled "H onky Tonk M an" which details relationships with numerous women, including a team employ­ ee, and his drinking and partying.

Longhorns lose top hitter for 4-6 months with injury M A R K LIVINGSTON Daily Texan Staff * TEXAS BASEBALL The Longhorns were dealt a huge blow Tuesday when they learned that centerfielder Brett Loeffler will be out of action for four to six months after tearing an anterior cru­ ciate ligament on Oct. 7, head coach Cliff Gustafson said. Loeffler suffered the injury in his first at-bat of the Orange-W hite Fall World Series, which ended with two informal games on Wednesday. The injury occurred when Loeffler hit a double and planted his right foot awkwardly on second base. After the injury, Loeffler rolled on the ground in obvious pain. Though Texas coaches feared the worst for the past week, their fears were con­ firmed Tuesday. Loeffler, who figured to be an extremely important part of the Long­ horns' lineup, will probably not be back until late March or April, more than halfway through the season. "It'§ a blow for us," Gustafson said. "H e's a very talented baseball player and one that was a legitimate possibility for an all-American per­ formance." Loeffler finished the 1995 season with a .347 average, 5 home runs and 24 RBI in just 75 at-bats. With the departure of former centerfielder the professional Jerry Taylor to ranks, Loeffler was considered inte­ gral to the heart of the lineup as well as a strong talent in centerfield. He had the potential to be the best all-around hitter in the Longhorns batting order. "Losing his offense concerns me m ore," G ustafson said. "W e can come close to his defense with some speedy young guys, but there's no way we can replace his offense. He's a guy who figured to hit in the mid­ dle of the lineup." Gustafson must now use the early days of spring practice to find an able replacement. Some of the candi­ dates are C lint Kiem steadt and freshmen Artie Johnson and Benji Keith. Another strong possibility is Mike Scarborough, who is playing wide receiver for the football team. "We want to see one player out there," Gustafson said. "Between those four candidates, we hope we can find someone who can play every day." Other than the injury to Loeffler, Long and winding road Arizona transfer Falco jin ally fulfills dream of playing at Texas JE F F SIKES Daily Texan Staff Like her favorite rock band U2, Melody Falco makes her own sweet music. Hers is not the kind played with a guitar or a piano, but with a P rince tennis racket. And unlike Bono, Falco has found what she's jbeen looking for, and University is it. Falco, 20, a transfer from the Uni­ versity of Arizona, was born in Mex­ ico City and raised in Monterrey. L ik e many tennis prodigies, she began playing tennis early, at age 8, basically.on a whim. "M y parents just wanted me to do som ething," Falco says of her begin­ ning. "So I picked up tennis. It was )ust kind of random." She flourished in the junior ranks and ended up at the prestigious Palmer Academy in Tampa, Fla., a tennis and academ ic respected preparatory school. It w as here where her game developed by play­ ing daily against top-flight competi­ tion like her current teammates and form er Palmer graduates, Nomena Rasolom alala and Anne Pastor. When the time came to choose col­ leges, Texas was her first choice. "T exas w as alw ays in my mind TEXAS WOMEN S TENNIS when I was looking at schools," Falco said. "Even before my senior year [of high school] I wanted to go here, but [Texas coach] Jeff [Moore] had already given the last scholar­ ship away to someone else." When a scholarship opened up for this season, Falco jumped at the opportunity to become a Lady Long­ horn. Thus far, that decision has proved to be a wise one both for her and Texas. She reached the third round in singles at the ITA Clay- court Championships two weekends ago. She also advanced to the finals of the doubles in the same event with her room m ate and doubles partner, Christina Moros. As a Wildcat, Falco amassed a 45- 25 career record in both doubles and singles, including an 11-match ^win­ ning streak last season and a strong record against the 1995 NCAA field. Once at Arizona, Falco could not get away from the thought of being a Lady Longhorn, thanks largely in part to Coach Moore. "Even when I was at other tourna­ ments [while at Arizona], we still communicated," Falco said. "H e's very professional and organized." And it was Moore who, when given a second chance, could not pass on giving her a scholarship. Falco is happy to be a Longhorn and loving every minute of it. "W hat I heard about UT — the reputation, the strong academics, the great tennis program, everything was true about it," she said. Falco also is a sports addict. "1 like all sports. I mean, I couldn't tell you the record of the Toronto Blue Jays. But I love soccer." While she is finding her new sur­ roundings wonderful, she admits the student-athlete life is a bit one­ dimensional. "I just study and play tennis," Falco said. Invitational This weekend she will be return­ ing to her old stomping grounds in Arizona for the Arizona State Uni­ versity in Tempe. Accompanying Falco will be her old friends Pastor and Moros and fresh­ man Laura Berendt from Largo, Fla. little change of scenery can do a world of good for one's outlook.

Watch For It! a | ] STEPHANIE FRIEDMAN/Daily Texan Staff White team infielder Taylor Holliday raced to beat a throw to first base during Wednesday’s action in the Fall World Series. the fall practice gave some positive signs for other players. The pitching appears as if it might be much more steady this season than last year. Also, first baseman- designated hitter Jason Layne hit the ball very well during the series. In the past, he has shown glimpses of being a good hitter, but never been able to maintain a consistent level. "W e've expected him to hit ever since he's been here," Gustafson said. "I w asn't surprised because I always thought that he could hit, but he w asn't.[He wasn't what?] Now, w e've got to figure out which hitter he is. I would like for him to be an option for another designated hitter, I don't think he will play a lot of first base because [Danny] Peoples has become a pretty good defensive first baseman. But Layne fives us some versatility because we can stack our lineup a little bit m ore." Because of budget cutbacks, Texas can carry only 36 players on the spring roster, down from 42 last sea­ son. Gustafson projects that at least 15 pitchers will be on that roster. "It's going to be really tough," Gustafson said. "It's a possibility that it could come down to where some of our people on scholarship might get cut." Talented returnees lead Lady Horns into 1995 S H E A D A U G H E R T Y ________ Daily Texan Staff TEXAS WOMEN'S SWWINHNG One of the most com forting things for a coach when beginning is know ing that a new season roughly the same team of the pre­ vious season will be returning for another year. Again, sw im m ing coach Jill Sterkel will be working with a rel­ atively young w om en's team, com­ prising mostly sophom ores and juniors. However, just because this team is still young does not mean it lacks experience. "It's always nice to see people come back," Sterkel said. "Having so many returning tends to make a team more comfortable." The team graduated only one senior last year: distancer Tobie Sm ith, who w as a three-tim e NCAA champion in the 1,650-yard freestyle. Even though the loss is small by number, Sm ith's absence from the team will be great in magnitude. said. "Tobie was the one you could always count on to come through," Sterkel "H er graduating leaves a gap for us, but people are going to have to step forward and assume that kind of role this year." This year's team is more sprint- oriented than last year's, and pos­ sesses more depth in the breast­ stroke and backstroke events. Sterkel holds high hopes for her crew of breast strokers, which includes a 1992 Olympian in junior Megan Kleine and tw o sophomore standouts in Darby Chang and M ichele Schroder, who finished 1- 2 in last year's Southwest Confer­ ence meet. "Breast stroke is going to be a dog-eat-dog w orld," Sterkel said. "W e've got a good group that has the experience and talent to get the job done." that Chang is also part of a talented backstroke unit includes junior Tara Leach and senior Kris Sunday. Sterkel also noted that sophom ore Tam m ie Spatz has shown a lot of promise in the 100- yard backstroke. Several distance swimmers will be vying to fill the void left by Smith, such as sophom ore Lisa Arent and |unior Taryn Taylor. Sterkel hopes sophomore Amanda LeGrow will step forward. M any of the sw im m ers also swim the butterfly in addition to their'main events. However, junior Danielle Strader and sophomores Erin Yarborough and Chang have had strong showings in the stroke. Sterkel also looks for Spatz to be the one surprising som e in the freest) le events, as will freshman Erin Maher. Maher, a Richardson native, is one of a promising group of fresh­ men that will compete for the Lady Longhorns this season. Another freshman, Jamie Riebenspies from Richardson, swims butterfly. A ustinite Annie G etter is a freestyle and individual medley prospect, while Meira Barghi out of San Antonio specializes in the 100-, 200-, and 500-yard freestyle events. Adding more depth to an already tough breast-stroke squad is freshman Sara Schlegelmeich, who joins the Longhorns all the way from Red Wing, Minn. Sophomore Ashley Hudler is the only transfer, coming from N orth­ w estern. A Houston native, Hudler will compete in the breast stroke and individual medley as well. The divers are also counting on key returnees, despite graduating national team m em bers Robin Carter and Terri Seipel last season. Senior Sherry W igginton will lead the pack for coach Matt Scog- gin. Although Wigginton is strong in all three events, platform is her specialty, and she surged in the lat­ ter part of last season after bounc­ ing back from an injury. Junior M egan M cDowell also came on strong last spring and will certainly be a factor for Texas div­ ing. Depth will com e from the experienced crew of sophomores Dawn Andreas, Heather Johnson and Sarah Vestal. Scoggin also has a key freshman in Kim Shea, an ex­ gymnast from Boca Raton, Fla., who has been diving only two years. The season kicks off Friday at the Southwest Conference Relays in Houston. The swimmers will compete at the University of Hous­ ton, while the divers will compete at Rice. ¥ wellness, WEEK ’ The University of Texas Wellness Network and U.T.

V n l 1 P v V l i - l 11 ' " y u c m Hershiser leads Tribe Associated Press SEATITE — The last time Orel Hershiser looked this good, he was the best pitcher in baseball, in the m idst of one of the most remarkable streaks in the history of the game. That was seven seasons ago, long that before a shoulder problem almost ended his career, long before the Los Angeles Dodgers gave u p on their former ace and released him. * Still, some things never change. Because when it comes time to win big games, there's no beating ol' Orel. . Hershiser did it again W ednesday night, winning a game that Cleve­ land Indians absolutely had to have, beating the Seattle Mariners 5-2 and tying the AL playoffs at 1-all. “The whole key in playoff base­ ball is to stay with your patterns, stay with your pitches," Hershiiser said. “ Don't let the crowd take your adrenaline away from you." Showing the form that once m ade him utterly untouchable, the 37- year-old Hershiser improved to 6-0 with a 1.47 ERA in 10 playoff and World Series games. He allowed only four hits in eight innings, and his only blemish came in the sixth when Ken Griffey Jr. tied a postsea­ son record with his sixth home run. Meanwhile,, the Indians got the big hits they missed in Tuesday night's opener. M anny Ramirez homered twice and went 4-for-4, and Carlos Baerga broke a scoreless tie in the fifth with a two-out, two- run single with the bases loaded. That was plenty for Hershiser, the World Series MVP in 1988. That was the season he recorded 59 straight shutout innings, started three times and m ade a relief appearance in the NL playoffs, and twice beat O ak­ land in the World Series. "I had health, I had youth back then," he said. “ After all I've t*een S p u r s Continued from page 16 the system works." The intrasquad game marked the end of the team 's week-long train­ ing camp, which had been held at the Recreation Sports Center. San Antonio will get a chance1 to play against a team other than them selves when they travel to Houston for a preseason tilt against Houston Thursday at 7:30 p.m. It will also mark the first time the Spurs have faced the NBA cham pi­ on Rockets since being ousted by them in the Western Conference finals last June. "We w on't be looking for any­ thing in particular," Robinson said. "We'll be looking for guys who can play together. We've been beating on each other. It will be nice to face someone else." Said Johnson: "It is going to be exciting, the game is sold out. It is a preseason game, but if Bob [Hill] wants to play me for 48 minutes, that's fine with me." Perdue, who came over from the Chicago Bulls in a trade for Dennis Rodman last week, summed up the pace of the W ednesday's exhibition game. And with a deep breath. "They do a lot of running in the West [Conference]," he said. through, with the shoulder surgery and all, this was very satisfying." Necessary, too. The best-of-7 series moves td Jacobs Field for Game 3 Friday night. Mariners ace Randy Johnson, finally able to get some time off this week, starts on four days' rest, opposed by Charles Nagy. Seattle is 28-3 this season in games Johnson starts. The Mariners also won the last time he pitched — in relief in Game 5 of the first-round playoffs against New York. “ The prospect of going down 0-2 and facing Randy Johnson is not one that causes your appetite to stay w ith you very long," Indians man­ ager Mike Hargrove said. Hershiser, who blanked Boston for 71 / 3 innings in the first round of the playoffs, struck out seven and his lone walk was intentional. Jose Mesa pitched the ninth, allowing Jay Buhner's second home run of the postseason. Standing still on the mound, Her­ shiser merely focused in on catcher Sandy Alomar Jr., who would occa­ sionally pat his chest protector as if to say, “Just you and me." Even after giving up a home run, Hershiser already had a new ball back in his mitt and was at the rub­ ber, almost ready to pitch, by the time Griffey touched home plate. None of Hershiser's teammates had to come console him, either, because they knew he'd been here before. “ Of all the people I've been around in baseball, and I've been around this game 20-25 years, he may be able to focus and concen­ trate more consistently than anyone I've been around," Hargrove said. "Hershiser has been in a lot of these games," Seattle manager Lou Piniella said. "H e's got the confi­ dence to pitch well, and he did."

It was a particularly stunning loss for Cincinnati, which was 10-3 in extra innings, best in the league. The Reds blew scoring chances in the seventh, eighth and ninth, and ulti­ mately wasted perhaps their most impressive rally of the season. The Reds were flat and flailing against Smoltz when they turned the game around with the resourceful­ ness that's become their trademark. Smoltz had a 2-0 lead and was work­ ing on a streak of 12 consecutive bat­ ters retired, leaving the less-than- capacity crowd of 43,257 restless. 1 They couldn't hit Smoltz, so they lU llD O H I TCCTH Fl nay rial in cm th e provided In exchange for your opinion on an investigational pain medication following oral surgery.

"I think it was a hard loss last year, to lose the way we did — get stopped on the 1-yard line," Jones said. "We thought we were going to win." For all of Jones' personal success, the Sooners haven't had much team success recently against Texas. Jones has only been a part of one victory (1993) over the Longhorns in three tries and Oklahoma has lost five of the last six meetings. "When you play a pretty balanced team like Texas, you can't try to stop only one aspect," he said. "If you try to stop the run, you are going to get beat with the pass." Containing Brown, who beat Oklahoma last year in his first colle­ giate start, is the other key to the game, according to Jones. "[Jones] is one of their best pass rush­ ers, and we're going to have to do cer­ tain things to take care of him," Brown said. "We're going to attack them." ■ Defensive end Tony Brackens (fractured tibia) is still questionable for Saturday's game against OU. Said Brackens: "Physically, from the waist up, I'm OK. I don't know about from the waist down." Continued from page 16 ing down the Aggie attack. Leading 6-5, Texas scored six straight points to widen the lead and, eventually, win the game. "I'm not totally clear what hap­ pened out there," A&M coach Lau­ rie Corbelli said. "W hen they changed the tempo with the serve, they took away our speed. Our play­ ers didn't do anything to quicken the pace, so our hitters struggled." A&M regained control in game three as they jumped out to an early 8-4 lead and never looked back. "Just when it seemed as if we had found a rhythm, we lost it in the third [game]," Haley said. "A&M really did a nice job on us in game three." Texas' defense came alive in the fourth game as they racked up 19 digs and three blocks. "Our defense got better as the match wore on," Haley said. "Espe­ cially Susan Chrisman. She played great." The Lady Horns saved their best effort for game five. Texas recorded a .333 hitting percentage while hold­ ing the Aggies to a .143 percentage in the final game. With Texas leading 14-10, Sanee clinched the win for Texas on her serve. She lofted what appeared to be an easy serve right at senior Dana Santleben, who misplayed the ball and hit it out of bounds. Coach Cor­ belli thought the play symbolized the whole match for her team. i f » TEXAS W HEX-OU STREET PARTY 'p e a tu r c n y Dallas Brass & Electric October 13,1995 7 : 3 0 TILL 1 : 0 0 AM $ 5 0 AT THE DOOR!

DUGGER Daily Texan Staff Even Spurs center David Robinson admitted that his team was a little bit stacked. “We wanted to see how Sean [Elliott] was going to respond," Robinson said, jokingly. Elliott may have handled the challenge, scoring a game-high 20 points for the Black team in the intrasquad contest Wednesday night at the Erwin Center. But it was Robinson's Silver team that ran away with the Bank of America Spurs Black and Silver Shootout, 90-70. In all fairness to Elliott, Robinson had the luxury of playing with familiar faces, including 1994-95 teammates Avery John­ son, Vinny Del Negro and Chuck Person. Elliott, on the other hand, was surround­ ed by all newcomers. “Those guys have been playing together," Elliott said. "But our guys never gave up." Despite the teams' personnel, Spurs head coach Bob Hill was pleased with the effort both teams displayed throughout the contest — their first game-like situa­ tion of the preseason. "W e're still learning with thy new guys," Hill said. "W e're still trying to get a feel with them. "The real story was the way Avery's team played. The way A very's team played is the way [the Spurs] play They were relentless and kept coming." The Silver team was led by Person's 18 points, but it was Robinson who estab­ lished himself early and watched most of the second half from the bench. In only 19 minutes, Robinson scored 17 points, 16 of those coming in the first half. Robinson was limited in minutes because of a sore knee. “The guys were moving the ball and get­ ting up and down the floor," Robinson said. “The competition was there. It was a prac­ tice mentality. We weren't so much playing for the crowd." Johnson also chipped in 17 points and six assists for the Silver. Among the new acquisitions in uniform Wednesday night were Corv Alexander, Will Perdue and Carl Herrera — all of whom looked a little out of sync during parts of the game. Purdue shot 1 for 7 in the first half, while Alexander finished only 3 for 11 and Herrera was 1 for 8. "Will played extremely well at times," Hill said. "But he's in a new system. Her­ rera, I don't care how he played tonight, I love him.

The conditional approval will allow the star cornerback to play with the Cowboys as soon as he is healthy. In the meantime, his $35 million, seven-year deal will have to be redrawn to fit under the $37.1 million salary cap. This latest development could present problems for the Cow ­ boys. If the readjustment puts them over the cap, they might have to cut a player to make room for Sanders. Starting defensive tackle Russell Mary­ land w as a candidate to be released earlier because of his $1.9 million salary. Harold Henderson, the NFL's director of labor relations, said Sanders' contract was designed to evade the cap by paying him a base salary at the league mini­ mum of $178,000 for the first three years w hile setting his average salary at $5.5 million. S w itz e r s a y s D e io n w o n ’t p la y S u n d a y ■ SAN D IE G O — Cowboys coach said Wednesday that Sanders will not be ready to play Sunday against the San Diego Chargers. Sw itzer Barry Switzer reiterated that the plan is to start Sanders at cornerback when the Cowboys play the Fal­ cons on Oct. 29 in the Georgia Dome. After playing at San Diego on Sunday, the Cowboys (5-1) have their bye week. Switzer also tried to deflect rumors that Sanders will be used immediately as a wide receiver. “Obviously he won't open on offense,'' Switzer said. “ He'll be a defensive player first. As we move along, if we can work him in the kicking game and in our offensive package, we'll do that." the Chargers aren't a good team for Sanders to open against because they often use three tight ends in their power running game.

Steinbrenner was highly crit­ ical of the umpires and American League president Gene Budig's position on the umpires. Steinbrenner, whose fines have reportedly exceeded $600,000 in his.22 years owning the Yankees, cited ball-strike calls and safe-out calls as wrong and showed tele­ vision replays to reporters. — Compiled from staff and Assocjated Press reports CALENDAR THURSDAY ■ SWIMMING: The Lady Long­ horns will have an exhibition meet at 4 p.m. at the Texas Swim ming C enter., FRIDAY-SUNDAY ■ MBIT 8 T H U S : The Longhorns will host the ITA All-American Tournament.

SPORTS OU’s Jones looks to throw UT for a loss CHARLES POLANSKY_______________ Daily Texan S taff Texas offensive left tackle John Elmore is going to have his hands full this Saturday, and he knows it. “[Cedric Jones] will be the best pass rusher I've faced this year," Elmore said. "I'm going to have to strap it up." Elmore draws the unenviable task of trying to keep O klahom a senior defensive end Cedric Jones from Longhorn quarterback James Brown. Jones set an Oklahoma school record with his career total of 29': sacks, which ranks third all-time in the Big Eight Conference. “There are a lot of great players in this game, and Cedric Jones is one of them ," Texas head coach John Mackovic said. “H e's an excellent pass rusher and has great speed, size and strength." Jones (6-4, 271 pounds), like so many O kla­ homa greats of years past, hails from the Lone Star State. As a senior at Houston Lamar High School, he recorded 30 sacks and 112 tackles en route to the Houston Post and Houston Touchdow n Club H igh School D efensive Player of the Year awards. Jones said he doesn't rem em ber being recruited by Texas when it came time for him to make his college choice. “When I came in [to college], they were making a lot of changes with the [Texas] coaching staff," Jones said. Ironically, Jones and his Sooner teammates are currently adjusting to a new head coach in Howard Schnellenberger, who took over the reins of the Sooners this year after the ouster of Gary Gibbs. “It was a different feeling," Jones said. “We didn't know what to expect. We knew he was more disciplined than Gibbs, and more than any other coach in the country." What Schnellenberger has done to Jones and the rest of the Sooners is rekindle the com ­ petitive flame. “[Schnellenberger] had us believe in our­ selves," Jones said. “He gave us confidence and made us feel like we had a chance to win every game. H e's a strong leader." So far this se ason, Jones has nailed opposing quarterbacks for sacks nine tim es in five games, including three in the Sooners' only loss to Colorado. A year ago, Jones recorded five sacks in a victory over Texas Tech. Jones tallied 14 sacks in 1994, ranking him third nationally and earning him ¿\ first-team All-Big Eight selec­ tion by the As sociated Press. Jones is leading an Oklahoma defense on a 43-sack pace, breaking the current school record of 40. T he Sooners also are ranked sec­ ond nationally/ in run defense. Jones shied away from making any personal goals. “If the team does well, it will help every­ one from an individual standpoint," Jones said. "E veryone will benefit from the team's success."

Atlanta's second consecutive extra-inning win put the Reds in a near­ impossible situation. No learn has won the NL pennant after losing the first two games of the championship series at home. “ It's a very uncom fortable feeling," Reds manager Davey Johnson said. “ W e've got to score more runs. Our offense just hasn't produced that m any." The Braves just seem t< i produce whenever the game gets late. They've done it so many times — 27 wins this year in their last at-bat — that they tend to be noncha­ lant afterward. “ W e've been in that situation many tim es," Lopez said. “ This is a team that has many wins in the late innings. I believe w e're used to it." Three-time Cy Young Award winner Greg Maddux will start Game 3 on Friday night against David Wells. The Reds pulled out every offensive trick they could think up against starter John Smoltz, who has beaten them three times this sea son. They finally got him out of the game following the seventh with the score tied at 2. But the N L's top extra-inning club failed for the sec­ ond consecutive night. M ark Portugal, relegated to the bullpen for the playoffs, started the 10th by giving up a single to Mark Lemke, a walk to Fred M cGriff and a sin­ gle to David Justice, loading the bases. Portugal then bounced an 0-2 breaking ball for a wild pitch with Ryan Klesko at bat to let in the go-ahead run, and Lopez followed Klesko with a first-pitch homer high off the left-field foul screen. In any of the first nine innings, the ball might have drifted foul. But things just seem to go right for the Braves in extra innings. “ I knew it was gone, but I wasn't sure whether it was going to be fair or foul," Lopez said. "S o I was just walk­ ing, looking at it. It was the happiest moment of my life."

Texas coach Dang Pibulvech con­ tributes the loss to A&M's age advan­ tage and proficient preparation. "They w ere more primed and prepped, ready to play," Pibulvech said. "T h ey're a little bit more mature, and if you look at their whole team they're a little more sea­ soned. W e're still trying to instruct people as situations come up and how to deal with them." Aggies head coach Gerald Guern- eri said A&M (10-3) w orked to develop strong attack tactics, which they displayed while pouncing on Texas' passes and spending the majority of the game near Texas' goal. Despite defeating Texas, 2-1, last season, Guerrieri says he always expects a challenging match from the Longhorns (4-10). "Texas' record is m isleading," Guerrieri said. “They are a very good team, and everything we got we had to work for. Jamie Strong is a very good goalie, and every one of our goals was earned." in the According to Pibulvech, the dif­ ference team s was revealed in how play execution was carried out and the success of their attempts. two "Physically, [the Aggies] were much stronger mentally," Pibulvech said. “They were much stronger and they came out ready to play accord­ ing to their game plan. We came out with a game plan, but we never exe­ cuted anything. The lack of posses­ sion early in the gam e actually caused us to fall back on our heels." Although she agreed the Aggies' tough mid field play and constant possession of the ball was a major factor in their victory, Texas sopho­ more forward Jill Cook said the Horns' performance was the reason for their defeat. "It wasn't what they did, it was what we did n't do," Cook said. “W e're a lot better than we played today. We w eren't just having men­ tal mistakes, we were having tactical mistakes, and that resulted in us not getting the ball very much. W e gave them too much room in the mid field and we didn't work together." Scorers for the Aggies included Yvette Okler, Corie Ham mers, Diana Rowe, Bryn Blalack and Nicole Shook.

Sanee, No. 11 Texas use approach to win in College Station MATT YO UNG _______________ Daily Texan Staff COLLEGE STATION — Fresh­ man Demetria Sance's grandmother wanted the whole world to know that the Lady Longhorns won, and which player won it for- them. As dejected Aggie fans quietly shuffled toward the exits, Sance's grand­ mother's voice vibrated through the noiseless arena. “That was my granddaughter," she said. “Number one. She's the one that did it to ya. That's my granddaughter." Indeed, it was Sanee who led the Lady Horns by Texas A&M in five games, 6-15, 15-6, 9-15, 15-8, 15-10. The win gives No. 11 Texas (10-4, 5- 0) sole possession of the conference lead and dropped the 19th-ranked Aggies to 12-2 overall and 4-1 in conference.

Junior specialist Susan Chrisman led the defensive effort with a team- high 14 digs. Leading the way for the Aggies was sophomore hitter Kristie Smedsrud with 16 kills and a game-high 20 digs.

"I told them after game one, 'W e'll see if we have a chance to play with them now.' That game was over so quickly, I didn't know how we were going to play." Texas A&M dominated early.

What the annals of Hollywood will neglect to mention are the cluster bombs that Friedkin has also callous­ ly dropped. Anyone remotely remember Deal o f the Century, Blue Chips, or Cruising (if you want first-hand evidence of A1 Pacino's extended slump, see that last one)? So, when someone who has been out of creative commission for more than a decade decides to tandem with Joe Eszterhas (the man responsi­ ble for Showgirls, Basic Instinct and Jagged Edge), for a foray into the trite and tired psychosexual thriller genre, what can you expect? Well, how about a car chase sequence that just might top The French Connection? Or a sultry sex vehicle for Joe-brand exploitation defined by a femme fatale that ranks with Gloria Grahame in The Big Heat? Yes, Fried- kin is back on the Blockbuster bus. Fiorentino Jade is primarily a murder mystery vehicle for fresh faces David Caruso, and Chazz Linda Palminteri, but simmering beneath this surface is a twisted triumvirate between college friends Matt Gavin (Palminteri), Trina Gavin (Fiorenti­ no) and David Corelli (Caruso). When a wealthy San Francisco socialite is found butchered a la Han­ nibal Lecter, assistant district attor­ ney Corelli is assigned to investigate. He discovers evidence that impli­ cates the governor of California (Richard Crenna) in a sex scandal. Further delving turns up a gaggle of limber prostitutes that supply men like the governor with consistent ... Linda Fiorentino stars as Trina, a psychologist accused of murder, in Jade. uh, interplay. And all the evidence implicates Corelli's old flame and best friend's wife, Trina, as the prime suspect. Matt Gavin, a high-powered attor­ ney, refuses to believe that his endearing wife is capable of such positions, and prepares to defend her honor. Corelli is thus caught within a web of sex, power and money, and must decide if justice and morality will apply to his closest ties. Obviouslv, Jade is vintage Eszter­ has. The terse, rapid-fire dialogue is laced with explicit sexual references ("Try the butt plugs, their designed for assholes") and steamy couplings. Andrzej Bartowiak's cinematography (Speed, Terms of Endearment) paints a dangerous noir, while James Horner's (Aliens, Glory) haunting score pro­ vides an eerie oriental ambience. The elfish Caruso gives a reliable turn as a gynophobic dispenser of justice, but when w ill the guy break out of the detective mold? Palminteri JADE Starring: David Caruso, Linda Fiorentino, Chazz Palminteri, Michael Biehn, Richard Crenna Director: William Friedkin Playing at: Riverside 8, Lincoln 6, Great Hills 8 Rating: ★★★V2 (out of five) wmmmsmmxm-mmmmmmmmi is equally effective as the smoldering power player whose facade hides a ferocious temper; and Fiorentino, playing off her Last Seduction stereo­ type, utilizes her throaty moaning and dark demeanor to their utmost potential. But where Jade excels is in Fried- kin's dire direction. His extended car chase is simply the most exhilarating ride since Bullit. The murder scenes are intense, brutal and grotesque. And his camera framings are chock- full of dark detail. Unfortunately, a gradually deterio­ rating screenplay finally turns this effective thriller into an anticlimactic mess. The narrative is more of a side effect to the atmosphere, and the characters are lost to linger in Eszter­ has' limited dialogue. Forced to communicate their inner thinkings in dwelling close-ups, the actors manage accomplished perfor­ mances; but in the end, Jade fails flat, and the surprise twist (no, it doesn't concern an ice pick) just confuses and bewilders as the plot holes are ripped wide open. Alfred Hitchcock, the master of this particulars genre, insisted that plausibility always took a back seat to his characters. Well, Friedkin isn't Hitchcock. And Jade isn't Psycho; but it is worth the ride. ‘Dream’ faces up to reality LAURA JONES Daily Texan Staff Hopes and dreams reside on shaky ground — while easy to create they are even easier to destroy. P. Seth Bauer's play Runs Like A Dream, currently run­ ning at the Theater Room of the Winship Building, Drama addresses the flimsy territory of the dream world and where it coincides with reality. Jack Tyler (H. Hy Hethering- ton) owns a general store in Hicksville, U.S.A., known in this play as Andice, Texas. Jack is a good ol’ boy. He likes to drink his beer in the momin' with the slightlv crooked sheriff (Yusef Lambert). His son, Paul (Daniel Lam), has faithfully worked by his father's side all his life, helping to keep up the fami­ ly store. For the past 18 vears, Jack's unde, Eddy (Kregg A. Foote), has kept a broken-down truck in the store's yard. He shines it every day and claims it "runs like a dream." Needless to say, Uncle Eddy is a little nuts. Conflicts erupt as Paul begins asking questions, presumably for the first time in his teen-aged existence. Paul, Jack and crazy Uncle Eddy have been the perfect little nuclear family until Paul realizes that Uncle Eddy's rav­ ings aren't just those of a lunatic. He's talking about specific events — events from a pre-Paul time that have vastly affected Paul's life. When two Hispanic tourists, Pablo (Estevan J. Zarate) and Maria (Christine Gonzales) make a pit stop at the general store, they are insulted by Jack and the sheriff, both rarists at heart Maria questions Paul about the truth of his fatherhood, and tells him that he "looks Mexican." With this, Jack runs Pablo and Maria out of the store. Finally, Paul starts wondering why he doesn't look like his father or his uncle, and why he's never thought about his mother before. Paul forces his father to confess the details of his past about the woman he married. For Jack the bigot, admitting the truth of his son's Mexican heritage dri­ ves him to rage. As he gives more credence to Uncle Eddy, Paul begins to real­ ize his father isn't as upstanding and absolute as he once thought. Paul learns he is made of more narrow than demands, and that there is a half of him that he has never thought of before. father's his THEATER REVIEW RUNS LIKE A DREAM Starring: H. Hy Hetherington, Yusef Lambert, Daniel Lam, Kregg A. Foote, Estevan J. Zarate, Christine Gonzales Director: James Worley Playing at: Theater Room, Win­ ship Drama Building, UT cam­ pus, 471-1444 Cost: $9 ($7 with student ID) Date: Through Oct. 15, Fri and Tue. - Sat. at 8 p.m.. Sun at 2 p.m. time. The format of the play is pecu­ liar because while the narrative style seems linear, the story' seems to jump around in space and The distinction between external and mental events also gets blurred. Thus the arrangement of the play seems slightly bizarre and off-center throughout. Yet, the conflicts are resolved by play's end. The finale of Runs Like A Dream is open-ended and relatively inconclusive. But in this instance that's a good thing. The ending is one of the strongest aspects of the play. It turns the theme of the show into food for thought on the instability7 of relationships and the realm of hopes and dreams. Bauer's dialogue, for the most part, is realistic and succinct. In some instances, the lines are overly simplistic, yet these places are few and far between. The script is well thought out and wrell expressed, with life like cha rá'cteriza ti ons. Uncle Eddy is one of the most creative characters, and Foote does an excellent job of playing a guy who is pretty far gone, men­ tally. Often insane characters are seen as comic relief or conflict creators, rather than real people. Foote's acting combined with Bauer's writing makes Uncle Eddy a believable character. Lambert does an excellent job as a backwoods sheriff while Lam and Hetherington create convinc­ ing chemistry as father and son. Lam's physical acting is consis­ tent and convincing throughout. Too often, directors overshad­ ow the writing and the acting with large, flashy moves. Direc­ tor James Worley doesn't fall into this category. His directing com­ plements the action because it is subtle enough not to detract from other aspects of the play. Trina (Linda Fiorentino) and David (David Caruso) rekindle old flames. WASHD/G MACHINE Artist: Sonic Youth Label: DGC Rating: ★★Vfe (out of five) CLOUDS TASTE im A W C Artist: The Flaming Lips Label: Warner Bros. Rating: ★★ (out of five) pointment to long-time fans. You've heard it all before, no doubt. Both Sonic Youth and The Flaming Lips have been praised for their ventures into whatever it is they choose to do. But a rehash of the band's history is not what either group needed. Instead, a look at the new albums, both of which show bands failing to engage their audi­ ences with much of merit, is wrhat is needed. Washing Machine, Sonic Youth's 10th album, points out dramatically what has been lacking in their work since about their fifth. The four members just seem to have worn out all their available venues of exploration, leaving the listener with reworkings of the once-original sounds developed on Confusion is Sex or EVOL. Honestly, this is not truly a bad thing, even the few scraps of Sonic Youth's grandeur are better than most things available. But w’ho wants to listen to a watered-down version when they can hear the real thing on their old LPs or at least buy the re-issues DGC that has been dutifully cranking out? Honestly, the daytripping lyrics of the title track and girl-boy interplay between Thurston Moore and Kim Gordon throughout can be interesting, but not overwhelmingly so. The one thing Washing Machine does do is put a bit more of the angular guitar sounds back in the band, which were bludgeoned to death by the pseudo-thrash of Dirty and were completely absent on last year's Experimental Jet Set, Trash and No Star. The 19-mmute closer The Diamond Sea redeems the album a bit with it's constant gui­ tar screech. Though not as good as some simi­ lar tracks on other albums, it adds a nice ambi­ ence. The Flaming Lips have been able to avoid the stigma Sonic Youth has gained in recent years, though they are just as guilty of sitting back laconically on the sounds of albums past The band blasted right into a snare-popping, guitar-zinging groove on early albums, which was actually complemented by the drug- addled croon of lead singer Wayne Coyne. Though the band is capable of dropping their normal pyrotechnic guitar displays and still writing interesting psychedelia, it doesn't do so on Clouds Taste Metallic. While other albums they've done are more low-key as well (Hear It Is, Hit Once in the Future Head) Clouds Taste Metallic leaves the lis- Yeechh, my Clouds Taste Metallic. The Flaming Lips sizzle but don't burn this time. tener aching for the guitar-effects of Telepathic Surgery. Jaunts into abject psychedelia could be inter­ esting were they sung by anyone but Wayne Coyne. While the stories he tells in the songs are amusing, his trucker-on-nitrous-oxide vocals are just too piercing to sit through for long. They need the cushioning effect of the rest of the band rocking along, which only occurs on Kim's Watermelon Gun. The Flaming Lips haven't truly lost their fire. They just need to throw some more fuel — Joe Sebastian on it for the next one. NAKED sm s - UVE AND ACOUSTIC Artist: Rickie Let* Jones Label: Reprise Rating: ★ (out oí five) Never has there been a more fitting title for an album than Naked Songs. On her latest release, Rickie Lee Jones forsakes the comfort of the recording studio and backing musicians, and lays her music bare in front of a live audi ence. The result is an honest and moving testa­ ment to her long career as one of America s premier singer-songwriters. Naked Songs offers acoustic versions of many songs from Jones' past albums. There is a heavy emphasis on her early material, with more than half of the 15 tracks taken from her first two highly acclaimed two albums, Rickie Lee Jones and Pirates. What is most surprising is the degree to which Jones has stripped the songs down to their most basic elements: one voice and one instrument. And even so, Jones' guitar and piano playing is spare and primarily chordal, serving as little more than a backdrop for her vocals. As with all artists who have worked in this intimate format, the success of Jones' music relies on its lyrical qualities. Her lyrics cover everything from stark por­ traits of lowlife street characters to more per­ sonal testaments of love, melancholv and childhood When they can be clearly discerned (which is not as often as one would hope), the words come across quite skillfully. All marry the careful structure and detail of poetn to a more earthy, rambling style that recalls the work of the Beat writers Jones' vocals effectively capture this para­ doxical combination, shifting in tone and artic­ ulation to suit the mix>d. It is incredible to hear her change personas, from a smooth jazz singer, to a naive child to a jive-talking hustler, often all within the same song. Interestingly enough, she usually opts to leave the transitions rough, as if to capture the ragged lines that divide different classes of people within a vocal context. As noble an artistic statement as this may seem, she sometimes pushes it too far. On a number of occasions, it sounds as if Jones is simply trvmg to sing beyond her range, which makes for missed notes and awkward strain­ ing. This hurts her otherwise brilliant perfor­ mances of The Last Chance 7 exaco and Maga­ zine, among others. Even so, the mere tact that these not-so-glo- rious moments were left in rather than being patched up later in the studio shows a refresh­ ing commitment to a warts and all live album. In this case it is best to overlook the technical errors and focus instead on the over­ all effect, one of powerful emotion and intelli­ gence. Naked Songs proves that even after six­ teen years of recording, Rickie Lee Jone-» still — Alex Slotkin has much to offer. Sonic Youth forgets to run the rinse cycle so Washing Machine sounds watered down. It's ironic that these two records should be released at nearly the same time. The fact that they both have such similar shortcomings is both amusing and disappointing. Sonic Youth and The Flaming Lips released a great string of records during their first few years. Daydream Nation,Oh My Gawd! set new standards for witty art-rock /new-wave psy­ chedelia which dozens of bands scrambled to imitate, with little success. experiments In addition to such characteristic albums, Sonic Youth/The Flaming Lips branched out with post-punk drone/freaked-out guitar skronk on albums like Bad Moon Rising and Telepathic Surgery.

Sch o o l S u p e rin te n d e n t M a rtin Pena suspended Po rt Isab el H ig h School band director Joe M artinez and his assistant, Eugene C o ttrell, pending an in vestig atio n and fu r­ ther action by the school board. In a statement issued W ednesday, Pena apologized to school trustees, students and parents. "T h e v id e o ta p in g o f stu d e n ts w h ile c h a n g in g c lo th e s and the searching of personal handbags of students w as done by tw o d istrict em ployees w ithout the know ledge and consent of campus and district adm inistrators," he said. "W e do not sanction or condone such practices, no m atter w hat the reasons m ay b e," Pena said. N e ith e r M a rtin e z n o r C o ttre ll could be reached for comment. The action followed a closed-door m e etin g T u e sd a y n ig h t b y P o rt Isabel school board members. S c h o o l b o ard P re s id e n t P a t M archan has said M artinez set up the vid eo cam era in an equipm ent s u p p ly room in the band h a ll to look for a thief. "T h e g en tlem an w as try in g to catch a thief, and he used some bad judgm ent, and in the process video­ tap ed som e y o u n g g irls in th a t storeroom. It was a terrible, terrible m is ta k e ," the H o u s t o n Chr o ni cl e reported M archan said. "A s soon as he realized he w asn't c a tc h in g a n y th ie f, th a t he w a s videoing girls, he stopped. As far as I k n o w , he th o u g h t he had destroyed the tape by cutting it up, b u t a p p a re n tly not. S o m e b o d y found it." The tape reportedly was found in a trash can by a couple w ho spliced it back tog ether and turned o ve r co p ies to the d is tr ic t a tto rn e y 's office and a television station. O n M onday, the station ran seg­ m ents of the tape, w ith the teen­ agers' features p a rtia lly obscured. But the tape clearly shows members of the band and cheerleading squad changing out of their uniform s. The girls w ere shown undressing and, after they left the room, M a r­ tin e z w a lk in g in and lo o k in g tow ard the cam era. T w o tim es, he entered the storage room , w alked over to the camera and appeared to turn it off. A nother segm ent shows C ottrell searching through purses and gym bags, but it does not show him tak­ ing anything. M archan said thefts from purses in the band hall had been reported to district officials, but that no d is­ trict official was told of or approved M artinez's plan to set up the video recorder. After 62 years, Bumsteads seek marriage counseling Associated Press N E W Y O R K — For 65 years, Dag- wood Bumstead found the answer to his problems in an overstuffed sand­ w ich or a snooze on the couch. W elcom e to the '90s, Dagwood: H e and Blondie are headed to the m ar­ riage counselor. The comic strip couple, w ho have enjoyed connubial bliss since 1933, hit a bum p in the m arital road w hen Blondie decided last week to m ove her catering business outside the fam­ ily home. In this Sunday's comic, a co-worker w ill mention the "m -w ord" — mar­ riage counselor. Bu t fear not: C a r­ toonist Dean Young said there are no plans to draw up divorce papers. " L e t 's not get too p ro fo u n d ," Y o u n g said W ed n esd a y from his Florida studio. "In the grand scheme of things, this is a comic strip." O n M onday, the couple w ill decide to v is it D r. M arjorie Squabble. The good doctor w ill spend a week help­ ing Blondie and Dagwood get their m a rria g e back on track in w’hat Young calls a "ra cy" episode for the strip. The idea of the Bumsteads trying to get in touch w ith their inner children has Young laughing already. "They are a couple in the realm of Rom eo and Ju lie t, A n th o n y and Cleopatra, Napoleon and Josephine/' said Young, tongue firm ly in cheek. "W h e n you think of Dagwood and Blondie heading to a marriage coun­ selor, there's going to be laughs and chuckles." Dagwood hasn't found much sym­ pathy from other characters in the strip w h ile try in g to p ersu ad e Blondie to stay home. Cora Dithers, the w ife of Dagwood's boss, offered this ad vice on W ed nesd ay: "K e e p your big fat mouth shut!" Blondie opened her business over Labor D ay 1991, m aking the Bum ­ steads a two-incom e fam ily for the first tim e since D agw ood's parents disinherited him during the Depres­ sion. Back then, Young's father, Chic Young, was drawing the strip. The s trip began in 1930 w ith Blondie Boopadoop hunting for a rich husband. She found bum bling Dag­ wood Bum stead, heir to the B u m ­ stead Locom otive w orks, and thev married in 1933.
