Attorney General releases 
report on gang members

Julie Nolen
Daily Texan Staff

Law enforcement officials now have one more tool in the fight 
against gang activity; thanks to a report released by the Texas 
Attorney General John Comyn in May.

The report, entitled "Gangs in Texas: 1999," defines what a gang 
is, as well as identifying types of gangs, signs of gang involvement, 
tracking members and reporting gang activity.

Several similar reports, which have been released periodically 
since 1991, were compiled from law enforcem ent agencies 
statewide.

"This is a tix)l for law enforcement agencies to know trouble 
spots for gangs and to be able [to] combat gang violence in the 
state," said Heather Browne, spokesperson for the Attorney 
General. "We learn new things from it each time."

According to the report, a gang is "a group of three or more per­
sons having a common identifying sign or symbol and identifiable 
leadership who continuously or regularly associate in the commis­
sion of criminal activity;" as defined by Section 71.01 (d) of the Texas 
Penal Code.

In Texas, however, it is not illegal to be a member of a gang.
Roger Wade, public information officer for the Travis County 
Sheriff's Department, said the reports help their gang activity joint 
task force unit, which is shared w ith the Austin Police Department.
"If the attorney general puts out a record that says this is what 
w'e're looking tor, then we'll all be looking on the same page," he 
said. "If we're doing that, then it helps tremendously.'

Dr. Michael Lauderdale, a professor of sociology who teaches a 
class on youth gangs, said the report offers law enforcement offices 
a better understanding of individual criminal behavior when in the 
context of gang activity.

"M ost laws deal with individual offenders," he said. "W hat we 
have with gangs is that the best way to understand them is to see 
them as a group activity."

Lauderdale added that this confusion over gang activity and

Hopwood case 
rehashed in court
UT says previous panel didn ’t 
follow proper procedures

NEW O R L E A N S — T he U .S. 

5th 
Circuit C ourt of A ppeals dug into UT 
law yers' arg u m en t tim e W ednesd ay 
with several questions regarding the 
U niversity's plea for the court to reverse 
a decision that led to the ending of affir­
mative action policies in the U T School 
of Law\

Shying aw ay from ad d ressin g the 
constitutionality of the previous three- 
judge panel's ruling, the newr panel of 
judges said the U niversity failed to fol­
low the necessary procedure for receiv­
ing an appeal to the en banc court — a 
full panel of judges.

Led by Carl Stew art, a judge w ho said 
he disagreed w ith the 1996 H opw ood 
ru ling, 
law yers 
the panel said UT 
should have filed for an en banc appeal 
im m ediately follow ing the decision.

H opw ood is the 5th U.S. Circuit Court 
of A ppeals 1996 decision that effectively 
ended affirm ative action in Texas uni­
versities and colleges.

Instead, in an effort to persuade the 
U.S. Suprem e Court to rule on the case 
in light of Bakke vs. The U C -D avis 
M edical School, they filed an appeal to 
the high court im m ediately after the 
decision.

Bakke is a 1972 U.S. Suprem e C ourt 
ruling that said specific racial quotas are 
forbidden, but that schools may use race 
as a factor for adm issions.

"You m issed your shot in the first 
case," Stew art said. "You did not ask 
this court to decide on w hether or not 
this cou rt overstep p ed 
its ru ling in 
Bakke."

Greg Colem an, the solicitor general 
for the attorney general's office, w'ho 
argued on beh alf of the University, said 
the cou rt shou ld 
the case 
because the ruling did not follow prece­
dent established by the 1972 case.

rev iew 

"W e're asking you to rule on it by the 
m erits," C olem an said during the trial. 
"You are bounded to do it by Bakke."

D oug C ox, a W ashington, D .C ., 
law yer w ho is representing plaintiffs 
Cheryl H opw ood and D ouglas Carvell, 
said he d oesn't expect the 5th Circuit 
Court to reverse the original p anel's 
decision, ad d ing that the full board 
review ed and decided not to hear the 
appeal en banc.

"T h ey 'v e looked at going en banc, 
and they decided not to," Cox said. 
"T h at d oesn't tie their hands, but it's an 
indication of w hat they think."

Howrever, D ou g Laycock, a law pro­
fessor w'ho has been involved with the 
case since its early stages, said the 
am ount of time the judges spent asking 
qu estions reg ard ing the o rigin al 5th 
Circuit C o u rt's decision is a sign that 
they're interested in that aspect of the 
appeal.

In addition to the cou rt's concerns of 
the UT law yers' procedure in appealing 
the case, Jacques W iener Jr., a m em ber 
w ho w'as a part of and concurred sep a­
rately w ith the original panel, qu es­
tioned w'hat w ould take the place o f the 
current ad m issions system if the 1996 
d ecision wrere reversed.

W hile U T law yers did not have a spe­
cific ad m issions system to speak of, they 
said one that recognized Bakke could be

Fraud probe opened on eBay

Associated Press

SAN FRANCISCO — The FBI is investigating 
whether people are driving up prices at online auc­
tioneer eBay by bidding on each others' items.

The probe was launched after lawyer Kenneth A. 
Walton tried to auction an abstract painting bidders 
believed was by Richard Diebenkom, whose work has 
sold for millions.

"W e can confirm that there is an investigation and 
w'e'ne assisting in any way possible," eBay spokesman

Kevin Pursglove said Wednesday. He declined to elab­
orate.

A spokesman in the FBI's Sacramento office, which 
is leading the investigation, declined com ment 
Wednesday.

But Donald Vilfer, a supervisory special agent, told The 
New' York Tunes in a story Tuesday that investigators 
opened the case after reading a story in the newspaper 
that described how Walton and other eBay users had bid 
on each other's items and offered glowing testimonials.

Report provides new 
insight into gangs

GANGS, from 1
membership can create problems, 
like the myths surrounding the 
murders of UT students Brandon 
Shaw and Juan Cotera during a 
carjacking.

Shaw and Cotera drowned 
during the summer of 1997 after 
two teenage carjackers forced 
them into the trunk of Shaw7s car 
and dumped the vehicle into 
Town Lake.

"O fficers felt that case was 
gang-related. Some said it was an 
isolated act of two individuals, 
and others said the two men had 
been involved in gang activities 
themselves," he said. "It had a big 
impact on campus."

Iecreased public knowledge 
about gangs would have sup­
pressed 
problems, 
theie 
Lauderdale added.

Lauderdale added people need 
to be aware of what a gang is, 
which 
is another reason this 
report is important.

"People really need 

to be 

aware of these issues," he said.

Lauderdale said the report will 
encourage the legislature to think 
about what they can do in terms 
of intervention and prevention.

He also said reports like this 
have inspired urban schools to

Gangs in Texas

Section 7 1 .0 1 (d) of the 
Texas Penal Code defines 
a criminal gang as three 
or more persons, perceiv­
ing themselves to be in a 
gang, having a common 
identifying sign or symbol 
or an identifiable leader­
ship who continuously or 
regularly commit crimes.
In Texas, it is not against 
the law to be in a gang.
The essential elements of 
being a criminal gang are 
the group, the fact that 
the group perceives itself 
as a gang, and that they 
collaborate in violating the 
law.

add programs and worker train­
ing during the sum mer — a time 
when kids are out of school and 
more likely to get restless.

"W hen school's out, and kids 
have time off, we see an increase 
in gang and deviant activity, " he 
said.

Lauderdale said there has been 
growing concern over gang v io 
lence within the past 10 years.

The reports were spawned by 
these concerns.

The report states that 69 per­
cent of gang-affiliated crimes are 
graffiti, while theft, assault and 
dmg-trafficking are the next top 
three reported.

About half of schools and law 
enforcement offices also report 
that gangs are only part of the 
problem.

"Both monitoring a sense of 
what and where gangs are, and 
what their 
features are, reflects 
literature and practice," he said.

Lauderdale added that the 
report is useful in creating a defi­
nition of a gang to lessen confu­
sion among law' enforcement offi­
cials.

"C ategorizing 

in different 
ways is a useful way to realize 
what someone is talking about," 
htfsaid.

Definitions of gangs can differ 
but the creation of this report 
leaves n o room for contradiction, 
Lauderdale said.

"A lot think it's the Crips and 
the Bloods and that's it," he said. 
"That's w'here these categories 
come in handy."

Telescope maps galaxies

Associated Press

Astronom ers using a robotic 
telescop e 
in A u stralia have 
mapped 100,000 galaxies in the 
region o f the universe surrou nd ­
ing the M ilky Way, quadrupling 
the num ber of galaxies plotted.

Scientists said the m ap — the 
m ost detailed three-dim ensional 
p ictu re o f the cosm os y et — 
d em onstrates that galaxies can 
cluster like continents m easuring 
m illions o f light-years across.

But the map also appears to 
show that the growth o f these

"super clusters" as lim ited, a con­
cept astronom ers describe as "th e 
end of greatness."

The map, known as the 2-Degree 
Field Galaxy Red Shirt Survey, was 
presented Wednesday at a meeting 
the Am erican Astronom ical 
of 
Society in Rochester, N.Y.

It m easures the d istances to 
100,000 galaxies, four tim es as 
many as the previous map. The 
new map covers l / 2 0 t h of the 
sky and peers 4 billion light-years 
into deep space.

CORRECTION
An article in Wednesday's Daily Texan said that Allan 

VanReet, a lawyer assisting the University with the 

Hopwood case, said an "en banc court" would proba 

bly favor the plaintiff. In reality, VanReet said an "en 

banc" ruling would m ost likely result if the 5th U.S. 
Circuit Court of Appeals ruled in favor of the plaintiffs 

during this appeal.The Texan regrets the error

Hopwood in 
court again

HOPWOOD, from 1

applied.

The court also heard arguments from the lawyer 
representing Cheryl Hopwood and Douglas Carvell, 
who argued that the two plaintiffs should have been 
awarded more damages than the one-dollar award 
they received.

Cox is a p a4 of the group of lawyers that was 
awarded $775,000 by Sparks. The lawyers are now 
seeking the remainder of the $1.5 million they origi­
nally requested.

"The court has already found that there was no 
question that their civil rights were violated, so they 
deserve the awards that are given to case winners," 
Cox said during the trial

The plaintiffs were awarded far less than they 
sought because Sparks ruled that they would not be 
admitted to the law school even under race-neutral 
admissions.

UT lawyers claimed that Sparks' decision on 
lawyers' fees should be reversed and that they should 
receive nothing. Because the plaintiffs were not 
awarded anything that "directly benefited" them, the 
lawyers should not have received fees, Coleman said.
Olin Wellborn, a member of the law school admis­
sions committee and a professor in the School of Law, 
analyzed whether the two would have been admitted 
under the race-neutral systems.

After reviewing 450 applications and identifying 
approximately 200 applications that - under review - 
were more promising than the rest, Wellborn selected 
a final group of 97 applicants that he thought would 
have received admission.

None of the plaintiffs was among those in the final 

group of 97.

The reason Wellborn said the two would not have 
been admitted, Cox argued, was because he assumed, 
before he performed the test, that the two were not to 
be considered. Cox added that the admissions studies 
Wellborn performed were not fair to the plaintiffs.

"In his finding, candidates that he said would have 
gotten in with race-neutral admissions, he had to 
stretch," Cox said.

UT lawyers disagreed, stating the court should 
affirm Sparks' ruling that the students would not have 
made it in based on Wellbom's testimony.

the
Edge

Its Willie Nelson 
time again, and In 
honor of our favorite 
golden-voiced Texan, 
today's edge Is devot­
ed to a story we 
know hell be Inter­
ested in, the 
Hatfield— McCoy 
reunion.

Associated press
A hundred years 
after the end of their 
legendary feud, the 
Hatfields and the 

McCoys 
H are getting 
together 
this week­
end for 
I their first 
reunion — and they 
will be leaving the 
shotguns behind.

“We are going to be 
on our best behavior," 
said reunion chairman 
Bo McCoy, a 
Waycross, Ga., minis­
ter whose ancestors 
took part in the 19th- 
century shooting war 
between the two fami­
lies that left 12 peo­
ple dead and cement­
ed Appalachia’s gun- 
toting, hillbilly image.
Two-thousand 
descendants are 
expected to attend, as 
well as thousands of 
others, including the 
governors of Kentucky 
and West Virginia.

The only confronta­

tion this time will 
occur during a tug-of- 
war and a softball 
game between the 
families.

It was the McCoys 

who made the first 
peace overture — 
though hostilities 
ended in 1900 and 
any hard feelings were 
long gone.

It’s not clear what 

started the feud 
between the families 
of Kentuckian 
Randolph McCoy and 
William Anderson 
“Devil Anse" Hatfield 
of West Virginia. But 
competition over tim­
ber in the mountain­
ous area and a 
McCoy pig supposedly 
stolen by a Hatfield 
escalated the tension.
On Election Day 

1882, three of 
McCoy’s sons fatally 
shot and stabbed 
Ellison Hatfield. "Devil 
Anse” Hatfield and 
others got revenge by 
tying the three 
McCoys to pawpaw 
bushes along a river- 
bank and killing them.
The last victim of 
the feud was Ellison 
Mounts, who was 
hanged in Pikeville in 
1900 for taking part 
in a raid that left two 
McCoys dead.

With the reunion 
open to the public, Bo 
McCoy predicts that 
the Hatfields-McCoys 
softball game will be 
the biggest attraction. 
He likened it to auto 
races where specta­
tors come to see a 
crash.

“ I think they want to 
see us slug it out," he 
said.

It's a great big scary world out there.

Suicide bomber kills cabinet minister in Sri Lanka 
20 others perish in attack during War Heroes Day

By The Associated Press

COLOMBO, Sri Lanka — A suicide 
bom ber shattered Sri Lanka's first-ever War 
H eroes Day, killing a Cabinet m inister and 
20 o th er people' W ednesday d u rin g a 
fundraiser for the families of slain soldiers.

C.V. G ooneratne, M inister for Industrial 
D evelopm ent, w as assassinated as he 
w alked am ong supporters in his parliam en­
tary district in Ratmalana, an industnal sub­
urb of the capital, Colombo.

Gooneratne, the bomber, and 20 other 
people w ere killed; in addition, seven peo­
ple w ere seriously injured, and 53 others 
w ere treated at Kalubowila Hospital.

iTere w as no claim of responsibility for 
the bombing, but it w as sim ilar to past 
attacks by the Liberation Tigers of Tamil 
Eelam, w hich has been fighting for 17 years 
to create a separate hom eland for minority 
Tamils.

Jehan Perera of the Peace Council, an 
independent think tank, said the bom bing 
w as probably the Tiger's response to the 
holiday. H e said G ooneratne w as "a soft tar­
get and a shocking choice" for assassination.
"H e w as not involved in the military end 
of the governm ent. But he used to go about 
quite freely," Perera said.

U.S. fares poorly reducing 
poverty statistic

UNITED NATIONS — A nonprofit w om en's 
rights advocacy group, U.S. W om en Connect, 
issued a report card W ednesday rating the U S. 
gov ern m en t's efforts to im prove equality for 
w om en in Am erica — and the results were mixed.
The U nited States received an "F" for its 
attem pts to reduce poverty am ong A m erican 
w om en but scored a "B" — its best grade — for 
progress in appointing w om en to im portant deci­
sion-making positions.-

The report is aim ed at reviewing progress m ade 
tow ard im plem enting a plan to attain equality 
betw een the sexes that the U nited States and 188 
other states adopted at a landm ark 1995 m eeting in 
Beijing. That m eeting identified critical areas of 
concern such as im proving w om en's access to ed u ­
cation, jobs, health care and economic services, 
curbing violence against w om en and helping them 
escape poverty.

In granting the United States a "B," the report 
card saluted the adm inistration's appointm ent of 
w om en — m ore than any other adm inistration in 
U.S. history. Progress, however, w as "sorely lack­
ing in the legislative branch at every level of gov­
ernm ent," the report said.

VIEWPOINT

Hopwood: The 
Next Installment

Many o f Texas ’ brightest 
minority students are now 
wooed to other states by 
strong minority admissions 
and financial-aid programs, 
often never to return.

- Brief of the State of Texas, et a/, in the 5th U.S. 
Circuit Court of Appeals, Hopwood vs. Texas

Yesterday, a door op ened for the fate of the H o p w o o d d e c i­
sion w h en it w as again b ro u g h t b efore the 5th U.S. C ircu it C ourt 
of A ppeals. W h ile this tim e arou nd the cou rt is m ain ly a d d re s s ­
ing the d a m a g e s p reviously a w arded to the plaintiffs, this 
appeal has g iv en the U n iv ersity a legal forum to presen t the 
m erits of a ffirm a tiv e action policies and their effects on this 
cam pu s.

Originally, U.S. D istrict Ju d g e Sam Sp a rks a w ard ed the p la in ­
tiffs, C h e r y l H o p w o o d et al., $1 in d a m a g es plus n early $ 7 75 ,00 0 
to co v er h a lf of the a tto rn e y 's legal fees. T h e plaintiffs had 
req u ested $5 m illio n in d a m a g es and are se e k in g som e, if n o t 
all, of that a m o u n t in this appeal.

D espite the m o n etary and c o m p en sato ry rea son s that led to 
to b e c o m e th e 

the p o s s ib ility e x ists for this 

this a p p e a l, 
U n iv e rs ity 's pro verbial day in court.

Th e H o p w o o d ruling in 1996 started a sn o w b a ll of d isastro u s 
effects on the University. T h e n A tto rn ey G e n e ra l D an M o ra les 
in terp reted the ruling to m ean affirm ativ e action of all types — 
from a d m is sio n s to financial aid — were illegal when only U T 's 
law sch o o l was n am ed in the original case. As a result, the 
U n iv ersity w as placed at a gross d isa d v a n ta g e to oth er in stitu ­
tions across the n ation that are still w ith in their rights to 
em p lo y a ffirm a tiv e action policies.

Further, Texas h as been forced to seek ou t o th e r altern ativ es to 
increase m in o rity en rollm en t, su ch as the m u ch m aligned Top 
10 P erc en t Law that has cau sed seriou s p r o b le m s for the 
U n iv ersity. T h is 
le g isla tio n a llo w s any h ig h -s c h o o l sen iors 
g ra d u a tin g in the top 10 p ercen t of their classes a u to m a tic 
a d m itta n c e into any Texas p u b lic university.

S o lu tio n s like this one h a v e p ro v ed to be far less effectiv e th an 
affirm a tiv e a ctio n policies in in creasin g m in ority en ro llm en t, 
not to m en tio n the fact that the U niversity no lo n g er has c o m ­
plete d is c re tio n w h en ad m ittin g applicants.

Th at loss of c o m p le te liberty in selectin g p oten tial stu dents, in 
ad d itio n to the H o p w o o d ruling, has resulted in the loss of 
c o u n tless ta le n te d stu d e n ts for Texas h igher e d u c a tio n in stitu ­
tions.

W h e th e r or n ot you agree with a ffirm ativ e action, a n a tio n ­
w id e S u p r e m e C o u rt ruling m ust be m ad e on this issu e so that 
u n iv e rsitie s can o p e ra te and com p ete for stu d e n ts on a level 
p la y in g field.

A la n d m a r k ru ling in this appeal 

is h ig h ly unlikely; the 
c h a n c e s that this p a rtic u la r panel of ju d ges will address the 
larg er H o p w o o d issue in their decision are slim . N ev erth e less, 
and thankfu lly, the o p p o rtu n ity has still presen ted itself, e s p e ­
cially c o n s id e rin g the m a k e-u p of the three-ju d g e panel.

O n e ju d g e on the panel, J a c q u e s Weiner, ex p re ssed his c o n ­
cern s w ith the b read th of the 1996 ruling. H e w rote that " I f 
B a k k e is to b e declared d ead , the S u p rem e C o u rt, not a three- 
ju d g e p an el, sh ou ld m ake that p ro n o u n c e m e n t." B a k k e is a U .S. 
S u p r e m e C o u rt ruling that said specific racial q u o ta s are f o r ­
b id d e n , b u t that sch o o ls m ay use race as a facto r in a d m issio n s.
A n o th e r ju d g e on the panel, Carl Stew art, a ls o stated that the 
o rig in a l ru lin g w en t too far. "It is an u n fo rtu n a te fu rth er irony 
that the p an el m a jority opinion should so ov erre a ch in its d e c i­
s io n ," S te w a rt w rote.

N o b o d y e x p e c ts affirm ativ e action to be rein sta ted as a result 
of th e se oral argu m en ts. W h a t's im p o rtant, h ow ev er, is that the 
p a n e l's ru lin g could put the U n iv ersity on a path to futu re 
a p p e a ls e ith e r in front of the 5th C ircu it en b a n c — all 18 ju d g e s 
— or b e fo re the Su p re m e C ourt, w here a decision w o u ld finally 
level the play in g field for all of the nation's colleges and universities.

Microsoft ruling misguided

By Monty Markland
Daily Texan Colum nist

Could Bill Gates become the rich­
est man ever sent to jail? Probably 
not. But among the many remedies 
found in Judge Thomas Jackson’s 
decision Wednesday to split up 
Microsoft, 
is the one stipulating 
that any executive who interferes 
w ith 
face 
could 
the breakup 
charges of criminal contempt.

Joking aside, the court-ordered 
breakup of monolithic M icrosoft 
reveals a great deal about Judge 
Jack son's provincial and 
reac­
tionary attitude towards the high- 
tech industry. It also illuminates 
the failure of the Department of 
Ju stice to adapt to the rapidly 
changing new economy. The most 
debilitating problem w'ith Jackson's 
decision 
is his failure to allow 
Microsoft a chance to offer rebuttal 
evidence showing why a breakup 
would be financially devastating. 
Jackson alluded to such criticism 
by pointing out in his judgment 
that the chosen remedies w ere the 
"collective work product o f senior 
antitrust law enforcement officials 
of the United States Department of 
Justice and the Attorneys General 
of 19 states, in conjunction with 
multiple consultants." Jackson also 
adds 
judgm ent 
"incorporates provisions em ployed

fin al 

that 

the 

successfully in the past."

to 

of 
those 

Those provisions previously 
employed refer to the successful 
breakups of AT&T in 1982 and 
Rockefeller's Standard Oil in 1911. 
the 
com parison 
Jackson's 
M icrosoft 
two 
case 
weighty precedents reveals his fail­
ure to grasp even the most basic 
aspects of this high-technology 
case. The provision of gasoline or 
telephone service cannot be com ­
pared to the program m ing and 
integration of highly disparate 
computer applications and operat­
ing systems. Nor can the breakup 
of Microsoft be considered vital to 
the prevention of future illegal 
activity, w hich is w hat Jackson 
asserted. 
requiring 
Sim ply 
Microsoft to cease its illegal activi­
ty, release its source code and stop 
predatory business tactics would, if 
Justice D epartm ent 
backed by 
scrutiny, accom plish 
the sam e 
results.

A government breakup w'as nec­
essary in the AT&T and Standard 
Oil cases because there was a great 
deal of physical property at issue, 
i.e. infrastructure. The companies 
had to be broken up and the infra­
structure redistributed in order to 
reintroduce a competitive market. 
Oil refineries and switching sta­
tions can be redistributed w ith 
much more efficiency than can 
ephemerally designated "applica­

Judge 

tions" and "operating system s." 
The com puter world is steadily 
moving away from such rigorously 
defined and com partm entalized 
ideas of software, but the Justice 
D epartm ent and 
Judge Jackson 
have been left behind.
Quite sim ply: 

Jackson 
could have ordered, and the Justice 
Department ensured, the prohibi­
tion of antitrust activity on the part 
of M icrosoft w ithout resorting to 
an unpredictable breakup of the 
company. 
that 
Jackson 
"M icrosoft, as it is presently organ­
ized and led, is unwilling to accept 
the notion that it broke the law or 
accede to an order amending its 
conduct." He is incorrect. Jackson 
bases that assertion on the fact that 
Microsoft officials "have recently 
been quoted publicly to the effect 
that the company has 'done noth­
ing wrong' and that it will be vin­
dicated on appeal."

held 

Regardless of w’hat representa­
tives of M icrosoft have said pub­
licly, the company demonstrated its 
willingness to adm it to antitrust 
violations on May 10, 2000.

On that day, M icrosoft issued a 
proposed final judgment that con­
ceded, "M icrosoft violated Section 
2 of the Sherman Act ... by unlaw­
fully maintaining a monopoly in 
the worldwide market for 'Intel- 
sy s­
com p atible PC operating 
tem s.'" The proposal goes on to

detail various other antitrust viola­
tions for various actions including 
an attempt to m onopolize the mar­
ket for Web brow sing software.

the decision 

As such, either Jackson failed to 
understand fully the implications 
of the case, or he acted for reasons 
other than those he stated in the 
decision. If the latter is the case, 
then 
to break up 
M icrosoft is not based upon a need 
to ensure compliance, but rather a 
desire for punitive action against 
the 'bad company.' Jackson over­
steps his authority if he is seeking 
to punish Microsoft. The purpose 
of an antitrust suit is not punish­
ment, but rather the reintroduction 
of a com petitive environm ent into 
the market.

Such an environm ent should be 
maintained, but Jackson's decision 
should not, and w ill 
likely be 
reversed.

Regardless, W ednesday's legal 
activity proved once again that a 
slow -as-m olasses federal govern­
ment has no business sticking its 
nose too far into business affairs. 
And whether or not Gates ever gets 
throw n in the slammer, Jackson 
certainly d eserves 
found

THE FIRING LINE

Brilliant!

I'm w riting in response to Mr. Jones' brilliant 
assessm ent of UT s over-crowded classes. Mike 
has eloquently explained to us that the reason 
that our classes are so big is that there are so 
manv people in them. This is brilliant! I can see 
how this insight could be applied to other prob­
lem s too. For example, it seems that the reason 
there is so much traffic on 1-35 is that there are 
a lot of cars on the road. Furthermore, Capital 
M etro's busses are crowded because there are a 
lot of people on them. Absolutely brilliant.

But, I liked M ike's proposed solution to the 
problem even more than I liked his assessment 
of it. W hat is wrong with you people?! Instead 
o f taking organic chemistry, calculus, or ther­
m odynam ics, you should all 
take 
sm aller classes to fulfill your degree plans. Of 
course! 'I he way to avoid taking big classes is to 
take small ones! Mike, this is brilliant. Indeed, 
you really hit the mark when you say that the 
problem o f over-crowding is caused by the stu­
dents. After all, if we didn't register for them, 
there w ouldn't be as many people in them. 
Absolutely brilliant.

I write to comment on your editorial of June 6 
concerning the task facing our next dean, Bill 
Powers, in achieving a more diverse student body 
post-Hop wood.

I appreciate your kind words about the efforts 
made during my time as dean to overcome the 
enormous obstacles created by Hopwood. I do 
wish, however, to offer a few comments. I do not 
know the source of your assertion regarding the 
number of our Mexican-Amencan and African- 
American graduates. We are very' proud of having 
about 1,300 Mexican-Amencan and 600 African- 
American alumni. My oft-repeated claim has been 
that American Bar Association statistics show that 
for about a decade pre-Hopwood UT law gradu­
ated more Mexican-American and African- 
American students combined than did any other 
law school in the country not created to educate 
minority students.

Your comments about the school's reputation 
suffering because of the adverse impact of 
Hopwood on the diversity qf our student body 
also merits comment. Reputation is difficult to 
measure, but according to the questionable, but 
oft-quoted U.S. Neios and World Report, the 
University is ranked 15th among the nation's 180 
law schools, and fourth among public law schools; 
the highest ranking we have ever achieved. We are 
tied for 13th in reputation among academics and 
15th for reputation among judges. Also, we are 
ranked in five cumcular areas; 13th in internation­
al law; 11th in dispute resolution; 9th in intellectu­
al property; 5th in trial advocacy; and 5th in tax 
law. Another measure of reputation is suggested 
by the 18-percent increase in applicants for the 
entering class of 2000. This compares with an 
increase of only about 3-percent nationally. Our 
commitment to regaining our former prominence 
in the education of minority students reflects not a 
concern about our reputation but rather our belief 
in thfc importance of providing opportunities for a 
first-class legal education to all segments of our 
heterogeneous society and to further diversifica­
tion of the legal profession.

Finally, I wish to add a note of optimism to the 
possibly excessively bleak picture you paint. We 
have high hopes that the number of our Mexican- 
American students will, in the near future, contin-

ue to approach the level we had pre-Hopwood. In 
this effort, we expect significant aid will be pro­
vided by the innovative Law School Preparatory 
Institute created, with our help, at the University 
of Texas at El Paso. This is the most promising 
response to Hopwood of which I know and it is 
my hope that it will be replicated at other schools 
in Texas and nationally. Se<x>nd, thanks to the great 
efforts of Sen. Rodney Ellis and Mayor Ron Kirk, 
both UT law school graduates, we have hopes of 
significantly increasing the number of Afncan- 
American students who will enroll this Fall.

Thanks for your encouragement of our efforts 
and for sharing our goals in this regard. 1 think 
you will find that Bill Powers will be a committed, 
effective, and inspirational leader in this and many 
other tasks important to enhancing the education 
we are able to provide our students.

Avoiding the campus

Many students 
seek alternatives 
to summer school

By Celange Sarrtiso

Daily Texan Staff

As thousands of students returned to the 
University Wednesday, others have been 
searching for ways to avoid campus. There 
is a broad range of alternatives to daytime 
summer classes, varying from attending 
Austin Community College to studying 
abroad.

Shabana Mahommed, computer science 
junior, said she chose to attend ACC this 
summer because she can choose classes 
around her work schedule.
convenient," 
is more 
Mohammed said. "I can't change work 
schedules that often."

"Schedule 

ACC also offers weekend classes. Wes 
Kener, engineering sophomore, said he 
chose to attend ACC because the classes are 
easier and cheaper. The price for three hours 
of class is $129, according to Mohammed.

This compares with the average fee of 
around $228 at the University.

Another option for students is a program 
called University Extension, which offers 
evening classes. The courses are taught by 
UT professors and run about $419 per 
course. For the most part they are three hour 
classes that occur once a week.

The UT Distance 

and Extended 
Education Center is offering correspon­
dence courses for students who do not want 
to physically attend class. The courses 
require a great deal of discipline, according 
to the Distance Center, which advised that 
no more than two be taken in a nine-month 
period.

The average cost is $216, and the courses 

vary from English 316K to Zoology.

Susan Smith, student services coordina­
tor for UT Telecampus, suggests on-line 
classes for undergraduates. Students can 
take the courses from any UT campus in 
Texas.

Sarah Nolan, the Asia adviser at the 
Study Abroad Office, said study abroad is 
another well-known alternative to summer 
school.

"[It is] a popular alternative to going here 
[UT] because you are getting a life experi­

ence," she said.

UT students interested in languages and 
other cultures are encouraged to apply for 
the variety of study abroad programs, 
although they are usually more expensive 
than general tuition, Nolan said. But pro­
grams like the International Education Fee 
Scholarship, which is derived from á $3 fee 
chaiged to all students as part of tuition can 
alleviate these costs.

Nolan said most programs accept stu­
dents with GPAs of 2.5 and above. The 
deadlines for UT study abroad are March 1 
for summer and fall, and Oct. 1 for the 
spring semesters.

Finally, some students turn to internships 
as a diversion from sum m er school. 
Marybeth Casvas, special projects coordina­
tor for the Liberal Arts Career Center, said 
internships are excellent resume builders 
and networking opportunities for a stu­
dent7 s future.

"Internships establish what you want to 
do," she said. "You may realize that after 
you do it [the internship] that you may not 
like it."

Boys State participants fold the American flag during a cer­
emony in the Jester Center courtyard. The program is com 
prised of young men from around the state who have com­
pleted their junior year of high school.

Young men 
practice politics 
at Boys State

By Waliya Lari
Daily Texan Staff

Today marks the sixth day of the 60th annual Boys State 

Convention being held on campus.

The weeklong camp was created to educate young men 

about Amenca's politics and government system.

"This was started in 1934 by a group of people in Illinois 
who felt the youth were being bombarded with fascist infor­
mation which contradicted democracy," Boys State chairman 
Jack Flynt Jr. said. "We teach the values of a democratic sode- 
ty."

Students are chosen to attend Boys State based on academ­
ics, leadership, competitiveness and desire to be a part of the 
program. Each delegate is nominated by his school and then 
interviewed by his local American Legion chapter. This year's 
924 delegates include 46 from Central Texas.

The delegates, all of whom will be high-school seniors in the 
fall, learn about the political system by mimicking it. Each stu­
dent is appointed to either the Federalist or Nationalist party 
upon registration and assigned a roommate from the opposing 
party. The boys are then divided into groups of 40 that are- 
dubbed cities.

"We act as a mythical 51st state—all our practices follow' the 
Constitution of the United States," Flynt said. "[The delegates] 
make all the political decisions themselves, we just answer 
their questions. This allows them to make mistakes and learn 
from them." 

% 

,

The participants take part in various activities such as cam­
paigning, legislative sessions and mock trials, and hold elec­
tions for such positions as governor and mayor.

Jacques Purvis from Humble said he decided to accept the 
invitation to the weeklong program because he plans to pur­
sue a career in politics in the future. After successfully cam­
paigning for a spot in the House of Representatives and later 
being nam ed Speaker of the House, Purvis said he got a taste 
of what politics is like. He said it also gave him the chance to 
learn from the other boys who attended.

"There's a very mixed group of guys here from all parts of 
the state; from big dties to small towns of 64," Purvis said. "All 
kinds of perspectives on issues like education and politics are 
represented."

Eighty-six counselors, ranging in age from 18 to 80, assist the 
boys. Each makes sure all 40 participants get to where they are 
supposed be and that they arrive there safely.

Jamison Smith, a second year structural engineering gradu­
ate student at the University of California at Berkeley and Rice 
alumnus, has served as a counselor at Boys State for six years.
"This is a great program to teach young men about the gov­
ernment and instills pride in them for America and its free­
doms," Smith said. "It reassures them that the political system 
is very necessary and that it does in fact work."

Flynt said the success of the program can be measured by 
the accomplishments of former Boys State participants, includ­
ing President Clinton, NBC News anchorman Tom Brokaw 
and politician Alan Keyes.

The program is successful in teaching young men about pol­

itics so that they may educate others, Purvis said.

"I would definitely encourage any young m an who is inter­
ested in politics to come here," Purvis said. "Boys State is a 
great institution."

Marcie Jones and Courtney Dent, both undeclared freshmen, refer to the campus map next to the turtle pond between classes Wednesday. 
The first day of school introduced many new students to the University and welcomed back returning students to a much quieter campus.

Horror stories from the first day

"I have this big rug for my room that I stored at my friend's 
house between the spring session and sum m er school. When I 
w ent to pick up the rug, I noticed that the ham ster cage in the 
room was open. Later in my dorm room, I unrolled the rug 
and found the three missing ham sters in my rug. I chased 
them around the room and finally caught them in a plastic 
container. That m ade moving in an adventure."

— Jenna Zebrowski, public 
relations/journalism sophomore

"There is nothing like going to the first day of classes and 

discovering that you have no classes. I registered Tuesday 
m orning on the Internet, but I m ust have forgotten to log off, 
because today w hen I checked my schedule, it show ed that I 
w asn't registered for any classes. I have spent the m orning 
begging and pleading to get back into m y classes."

— Michael Hensley, public relations senior

"I called the bank Tuesday and asked them about three 
loans that I had applied for. I discovered that my loans were 
rejected, and I was running around trying to secure loans so I 
could pay for my classes. I found out this m orning an hour 
before my class started that I received loans so I can pay for

my classes, but now I have to stand in line at the Financial 
Aid Office to try to get another loan to pay (or my books."

— Juan Rojas, architecture freshmen

"I w oke up 10 m inutes before m y Japanese class started. I 
rushed to cam pus and parked in a 15-minute loading zone. 1 
ran up tw o extra flights of stairs and w hen I finally got to 
class, my teacher was not there. W hen she arrived, she said 
that class started at 9:30 a.m. instead of 9 a.m. As soon as 
class w as over, I rushed out to m ove my car, 
and barely m issed getting a ticket."

— D aniel Emery, engineering senior

"I broke my leg w hen I fell getting off the 
bus last year. I scheduled the surgery for June 7 
w ithout realizing it was the first day of class. I 
have class at 11 a.m. And then at noon, I have 
to go to the hospital for surgery."

— M eg Kemp, philosophy junior

state 

Three 

senators 

announced 
Wednesday at a press conference that 
Texas border counties will stop handling 
federal drug cases along the U.S.-Mexico 
border July 1.

The cases, which total about 500 a year, 
mostly involve marijuana possession and 
are funded by county taxpayers without 
reimbursement from the federal govern­
ment, said border District Attorney Jaime 
Esparza.

"For years, border counties, the poorest 
in the U.S., have borne the burden of bor­
der justice," said Sen. Eliot Shapleigh, D-El 
Paso. "We can no longer bear this burden. 
The federal government m ust prosecute 
and pay for what it is charged to do."

Shapleigh and state Sens. David Sibley, 
R-Waco, 
Jr., D- 
and Eddie Lucio 
Brownsville, have attempted to negotiate 
with federal prosecutors since April 10, 
but have not reached an agreement. The 
lack of progress m ade with the federal 
government caused the senators to call the 
press conference at the Capitol, which was 
attended primarily by members of the 
media. Lucio also sent a letter to the U.S. 
House and Senate Wednesday, asking 
them to handle the cases.

"We are not telling the federal govern­
ment wt will not handle our case load," 
said Sen. Lucio. "But the federal responsi­
bility of these border cases are absolutely 
clear."

which penalizes them with fines but no jail 
time. El Paso, Hudspeth, Cameron, 
Hidalgo and Starr, the latest counties to 
follow Laredo, will initiate similar penal­
ties if no federal assistance is offered by 
July 1. There am currently 350-400 cases 
already in the system thatwill still be pros­
ecuted by county district attorneys, but no 
new cases will be considered after the 
deadline.

According to the senators, it is unknown 
whether the move has increased drug 
sm uggling at the Laredo border.

"It is too hard to tell how many drug 
sm ugglers will go free, because we are 
assum ing the federal government will 
start prosecuting 
said 
Shapleigh. Federal prosecutors, however, 
have not yet intervened in Laredo.

cases," 

the 

Sibley said he does not believe the 
action will give drug smugglers an advan­
tage because, under the current system, 
most are aware they will not be federally 
prosecuted if they possess less than 250 
pounds of marijuana or less than a pound 
of cocaine.

Attorney General Janet Reno said the 
federal government cannot increase funds 
for border drug cases without increasing 
funds for interior cases, Esparza said. Most 
of the involved cases are from border 
checkpoints and U.S. ports of entry, which 
are considered federal responsibility.

County district attorneys previously 
handled federal border cases, but no 
longer have the funds or the resources, 
Esparza said.

In Laredo, where federal cases have 
been refused for the past year, drug crimi­
n a ls n o t charged b y federal or state prose-' 
cutors are adm inistratively arrested,

"This is the federal prosecutor's job," 
said Esparza. "We can help but not with­
out reimbursement and extra resources 
from the federal government."

Morales uses leftover campaign 
funds for legal fees in tobacco case

By The Associated Press

HOUSTON — Former Texas Attorney 
General Dan Morales has spent thou­
sands of dollars in campaign contribu­
tions to defend himself against investi­
gations of his handling of the state's 
$17.3 billion settlement with the tobacco 
industry in 1998.

Morales is currently under investiga­
tion for hiring five trial lawyers in a con­
tingency agreement to negotiate the 
tobacco settlement. The lawyers were 
awarded $3.3 billion in legal fees, to be 
paid over time by the cigarette makers.

Records 

the Texas Ethics 
Commission show that Morales used the 
leftover campaign funds to pay personal 
legal fees in 1999, the first year after he 
left office. How much he spent this year 
won't be known until his next report is 
in July, the 
filed with the agency 
Houston Chronicle reported for

paign contributions to pay $127,368 to 
San Antonio attorney Sam D. Millsap Jr. 
Morales once worked for Millsap, a for­
mer Bexar County district attorney, as a 
young prosecutor.

Records also show7 that Morales paid 
$36,000 to Jorge Vega, the first assistant 
in the attorney general's office, when 
Morales hired the trial lawyers to sue the 
tobacco industry. Both Morales and Vega 
had left the state payroll when the pay­
ments were made.

Another San Antonio attorney, Gerald 
Goldstein, is representing Morales, but 
no payments to him were listed in the 
report. Another lawyer suggested that 
Millsap may be paying Goldstein, but 
Goldstein declined to comment on his 
financial arrangement with the former 
attorney general.

His use of the campaign money is 
legal, and Morales, now an Austin busi­
ness consultant, has denied any wrong­
doing.

Federal prosecutors also are believed 
to be investigating Morales' relationship 
with a sixth lawyer, Marc Murr of 
Houston, an old friend of the former 
attorney general. Morales unsuccessful­

concerns that he has a conflict of interest

"I do not raise this issue lightly, but do 
so out of concern for the public's percep­
tion of and, thus, confidence 
in this 
agency," Garza wrote.

The three com m issioners discu ssed the 
conflict of interest issue Tuesday. They are 
scheduled to hear oral argum ents in the 
case Thursday and m ake a decision at their 
June 20 meeting.

for 

"It w as nothing more than a political 
charge by som eone that I have a lot of 
political p roblem s w ith," he 
said of 
G arza's allegation.

He said his son, Steve M atthews, started 
working for TXU 10 years ago— five years 
before Charles M atthews took office at the

comm ission.

Besides, M atthews said, he considered 
another rate increase proposal from TXU in 
1997 without any questions. In that case, 
he said he ordered TXU to cut their rates 
by $8.5 million.

"That thing that happened yesterday 
w as the m ost unfounded charge to happen 
to me in public life," said M atthews, a for­
mer m ayor of Garland.

Garza said during the meeting Tuesday 
that the record w as irrelevant if a public 
official ap pears to have acted improperly.

"H ow would it appear to the man on the 
street if that individual were asked, 'H ow 
do you feel about an individual sitting in 
judgm ent of the case where one of the par­

ties is a relative?'" he said.

G arza said W ednesday that while he did 
not question M atthews' integrity, the com ­
m issioner should recognize the serious­
ness of his decision instead of taking the 
allegation as a personal attack.

"When confronted with a tough issue, it 
is easy to cry 'political,'" Garza said. "This 
is not about Com m issioner Matthewrs. This 
is about the integrity of the R ailroad 
Com m ission, an institution that will be 
around long after Com m issioner M atthew s 
and I are gone."

The proposed rate increase w ould affect 
1.5 million custom ers in North Texas. TXU 
say s it w ould add about 75 cents to the 
average hom eow ner's monthly bill of $28.

A hearing exam iner recom m ended last 
month that the com m ission reject TXU 's 
request and instead cut rates $4 million a 
year because of savings from TXU 's 1997 
merger with Enserch Corp.

Earlier this year Garza and M atthews 
sparred over G arza's proposal to close a 
regulatory loophole that allow s oil and g as 
com panies to keep unused wells open for a 
$100 fee.

Garza and environm ental groups said 
the loophole threatens groundw ater, but 
M atthews called G arza's proposal "g o v ­
ernment by am bush" again st the oil com ­
panies.

A TXU spokesm an said the com pany 

had no position on G arza's allegations.

THEN AND NOW
Last trip to Omaha in 93 
similar to this year’s berth

By Travis Richmond
Daily Texan Staff

TEXAN ANALYSIS

The last time Texas reached the College World 
Series, the Longhorns were eliminated after three 
games because of a lack of effective relief pitching.
That shouldn't be a problem this time around.
One area where the 2000 Longhorns exceed their 
1993 counterparts is in the bullpen, namely 
because of All-American Charlie Thames. In only 
one year in Austin, Thames has tied the all-time 
UT saves record of 19.

In Omaha in 1993, after winning its opening 
game against Oklahoma State, Texas blew leads of 
three and four runs in its next two games to be 
eliminated from the CWS.

While this year's Texas squad is dominated by 
pitching, the opposite was true of the 1993 team. 
Current head coach Augie Garrido has three 
proven starters to choose from in Beau Hale, D.J. 
Jones and Phil Seibel, and Thames waiting when 
the game 
line. Then-coach Cliff 
Gustafson's staff was Kieschnick, Kieschnick, and 
more Kieschnick.

is on 

the 

In 1993, Brooks Kieschnick had a monstrous 
year on the mound and at the plate in winning his 
second consecutive national player of the year 
award. He made 24 pitching appearances, includ­
ing 18 starts, compiled a 15-3 record, eight com­
plete games, and a team-best three saves. In addi­
tion, Kieschnick's 139.2 innings pitched were more 
than double the next highest Longhorn total.

The 1993 Longhorns attack was also focused 
around Kieschnick's huge year at the plate — .376 
batting average, 19 home runs and 80 RBIs — and 
All-American first baseman Braxton Hickman,

who hit .393, with nine home runs and 74 RBIs 
entering the CWS. As a team, Texas was hitting 
.302 with 55 home runs, averaging 8.23 runs per 
game on 10.02 hits.

No one on the 2000 team can match Kieschnick's 
individual numbers, although Jeff Ontiveros' 14 
home runs come close.

But as a team "Augieball" has produced similar 
overall results. Texas has batted .306, averaged 10.03 
hits a game, and 6.44 runs per game. Combined with 
its edge in team ERA (3.12 in 2000, 4.35 in 1993), it's 
safe to say this year's team is stronger overall.

In 2000, Garrido has used Ryan France as both 
the team's usual designated hitter and occasional 
starter, but he is not anywhere near as significant 
as Kieschnick was in 1993.

Texas finished the 1993 regular season 46-14 
before sweeping through the Central II Regional in 
Austin to advance to Omaha. This was before the 
NCAA expanded to 64 teams in 1999 and divided 
regional play into two weekends.

The team needed Kieschnick to star in Omaha if 
they were going to win, and he did his part in the 
first game.

In the opener versus the Cowboys, Texas, which 
was seeded third, got what they needed from 
Kieschnick, who threw a career-high 172 pitches in 
a complete game victory.

In Game No. 2 versus Wichita State, Texas led 6- 
1 after five innings, but poor relief pitching by J.D. 
Smart in the eighth inning and a costly error by 
shortstop Tim Harkrider allowed the Shockers to

Canadian-born Emond making most of new-found goal

By Ben Emond

As told to Damien Pierce, Daily Texan Staff

Ben Emond is the starting center fielder fo r 
the Texas baseball team, and the article that fo l­
lows is the fourth in a series o f player diaries to 
be printed in the Texan as the Horns head to the 
College World Series.

I didn't know anything about the College 
World Series when I was growing up, and I 
didn't have a clue about college baseball 
either.

I was bom in Canada, and it w asn't until I 
came to the states at the age of 18 that I 
learned about the College World Series and 
Omaha.

In fact, growing up back home the only 

thing I knew about was hockey.

That's what I wanted to played growing 

up.

I started playing it when I was about six

years old, and I kept 
playing until about the 
age of 18.

That was 

the only 
sport I really knew, and 
I didn't know anything 
about college baseball 
until I got a little bit 
older. So obviously I 
didn't know about the 
tradition of Texas base­
ball.

Eton Emond:
has .378 aver­
age, third In Big 
12 conference

But eventually I did hear about all of it, 
and that was after I decided to turn in my 
hockey stick for a baseball bat.

I learned about Texas when I was at Semi­
nole Junior College in Oklahoma. Some 
guys on the team told me about how great it 
was, and then I got to come down here on a 
trip and I saw for myself how great it was. I 
was impressed, and I decided to come here 
right after that first visit.

As for the College World Series, I also 

learned about that at Seminole.

I was told about what a great place it was, 
and about how it is a place where the fans go 
crazy. Just from those details, I knew it 
would be a place where you would get this 
great sensation by just walking out onto the 
field.

So when I heard about it three years ago, I 
started watching it on television, and I have 
hoped ever since that day that I would have 
the opportunity to play there.

It is an amazing tradition to be a part of.
I remember one year in the championship 
gaqre when a guy who had never hit a 
homerun in his career, came up to the plate 
and hit a home run right down the line to 
win the title for his team. Now, every time 
you turn on the television, you see that high­
light of him whacking the ball out of the 
park.

and help my team win a game like that. 
That's about the greatest thing that could 
happen.

You always think about bases loaded, 
down by three, you're at the plate with two 
outs and a 3-2 count and you hit a home run. 
It's a great situation and moment to be a part 
of. If it happened that way, it would be so 
awesome.

And now we are going, and everybody on 
the team has a chance to live those kinds of 
dreams.

I have been to the Junior College World 
Series and there were about 10,000 people 
there for that game. But the College World 
Series is twice as big. I just see a lot of fans 
and tradition and there's going to be a 
bunch of great teams there that we will 
make some fantastic games. I am really 
going to enjoy it.

For our team, it has been a fun road get­

I would love to trade places with that guy,

ting there.

The difference between this year and last 
year's team is that we have more team spir­
it. We play as a team, and everybody 
believes in the same things. We believe that 
we can do it, and I think that's been the dif­
ference for us this season, the maturity.

And that's where the blond hair comes 

from.

The blond hair is a team thing, and we all 
agreed to do it. I didn't want to do it at first, 
because I didn't want to ruin my image. But 
after a while I went with it because I wanted 
to be with my teammates on this, and we all 
have to be a part of it. I can dye it back when 
we're done, hopefully after we win the 
championship.

I hope I can contribute to the team, and I 

will try to do as much as I can to do that.

I just want to be there right now, and I am 
ready to go. I didn't grow up watching the 
College World Series and baseball, but the 
dreams of it really grow on you quickly.

Lakers throttle Indiana 104-87 in Game 1

Rocker may skip minors to sell stocks

O ’N eal scores 43 points as L.A. 
takes 1-0 series lea d in Finals

By The Associated Press

LOS ANGELES — Livin' large and livin' easy. That was 

how Shaquille O'Neal and the Lakers began the NBA Finals.

O'Neal put up numbers worthy of a champion, scoring 43 
points and grabbing 19 rebounds as Los Angeles kept a com­
fortable lead most of the way and defeated the Indiana Pacers 
104-87 in Game 1 on Wednesday night.

As expected, O'Neal was an unstoppable force against an 
opponent with few options for slowing him down. Whether 
they single-teamed him or used double-coverage, nothing 
really worked for the Pacers in trying to stop the Lakers' 7- 
foot-1 center.

Making 12 layups and dunks, six jumpers from inside 12 
feet and three hook shots, O'Neal had everything working. He 
shot 21-for-31 and left to a standing ovation with 2:33 remain­
ing after throwing down his final dunk of the night to give the 
Lakers a 98-81 lead.

O'Neal, the league's MVP, also had three blocks and four 
assists, getting two of those assists early in the fourth quarter 
after the Pacers had their lone strong stretch of the night to 
pull within two points.

It was O 'N eal's highest-scoring game since getting 46 

points in Game 1 of the first round against Sacramento.

Kobe Bryant added 14 points, Ron Harper 12 and Rick Fox 
added 11 for the Lakers, who didn't have the emotional let­
down their coach feared after their stunning comeback in 
Game 7 of the Western Conference finals.

Instead, it was Indiana's Reggie Miller who shrunk under 
the pressure, shooting an abysmal l-for-16 and scoring just 
seven points.

Mark Jackson led Indiana with 18 points, while Austin 
Croshere added 16 and Jalen Rose and Rik Smits had 12 
apiece.

Los Angeles outrebounded Indiana 48-36 and controlled the 
game in so many ways, giving credence to those who argued 
that they present too many matchup problems for a Pacers 
team that could be overwhelmed.

That's exactly what they were early as O'Neal got going 

right way.

O 'N eal's line at the end of the first quarter read 15 points, 
on 7-for-8 shooting, five rebounds and one assist — the latter 
stat coming when he passed out of 6 triple-team and found 
Harper alone in the com er for a three-pointer that made it 33-

Lakers center Shaquille O’Neal dunks for two of his 43 points.

■ ASSOCIATED PRESS

16 late in the quarter.

Harper made all three of his shots in the first quarter while 
Bryant went 4-for-6, twice driving through traffic with ease to 
convert a dunk and layup. Los Angeles shot 15-for-22 in the 
quarter.

As well as things went for O'Neal, they were equally bad 
for Miller as he missed all six of his shots. Miller had his first 
shot of the second quarter emphatically rejected by Robert 
Horry and didn't score from the field until past the midpoint 
of the third quarter.

ATLANTA — John Rocker might not go to the 
minor leagues. He's even considering whether to 
walk away from baseball altogether. And how 
would he make a living?

“I would be a stockbroker, probably," the outspo­

ken reliever said Wednesday.

In his first public comments since being sent to 
Triple-A Richmond, Rocker told radio station 
WKLS-FM that he's upset about the way he was 
treated by the Atlanta Braves. He also said he never 
threatened Sports Illustrated reporter Jeff Pearlman, 
who wrote the story exposing Rocker's offensive 
comments against gays, minorities and foreigners.

The Braves fined Rocker $5,000 for inappropriate 
conduct and said he was sent to the minors to work 
on his control.

"I don't know if I'm even going down or not," 
Rocker said during a 30-minute appearance on The 
Regular Guys m orning show. "I'm still pretty 
chapped about the whole situation."

The Braves downplayed Rocker's comments, 
saying he was just frustrated. Manager Bobby Cox 
said the pitcher even stopped by Turner Field on 
Wednesday to pick up his gear.

"H e's going to report," said Cox, who didn't get 

a chance to speak with Rocker. "Absolutely."

A baseball source, speaking on condition of 
anonymity, said Rocker's advisors have told him to 
report to the minors. But it was unclear if Rocker 
planned to follow their advice, the source said.

Several players reacted with amusement when 
told that Rocker was considering a new career path. 
Outfielder Brian Jordan, who called Rocker a "can ­
cer" after Sunday's confrontation with Pearlman, 
smiled in disbelief and held his hands over his ears.

"Unbelievable," Jordan said.
Reliever Kerry Ligtenberg added, "I knew he was 
interested in that, but I don't know if he's qualified. 
I don't think you can just become a stockbroker. 
Maybe he could be a day trader."

Rocker, who has not spoken with reporters since 
his demotion, has made regular appearances on 
WKLS, known in Atlanta as "96 Rock," since join ­
ing the Braves in 1998. Last month, the station 
arranged a meeting with Andrew Tellers, the 24- 
year-old California man who mooned Rocker dur­
ing a game at Dodger Stadium.

Rocker was originally scheduled to be on the

morning show Monday but backed out after the 
confrontation with Pearlman, said Christopher 
Calandro, the show 's executive producer. The 
pitcher called in Wednesday, however.

"We have been wanting him to come on for a 
w hile," Calandro said. "Then all the stuff happened 
with Pearlman. He was committed to do the show, 
so we were the benefactor."

Rocker, who had 38 saves last year but has 25 
walks in 18 1 /3 innings this season, said he might 
quit rather than go to the minors. He has until 
Thursday to report to Toledo, Ohio, where Rich­
mond was playing a three-game series.

"I got a pretty raw deal of raw deals this time," 
Rocker told the radio station. "There's plenty of 
things I can do besides dealing with the headaches 
of this garbage every single day."

He talked of returning to college to earn his busi­

ness degree.

"There's something to be said for having a job 

that is not just a complete headache," Rocker said.

Most of the interview focused on his run-in with 
Pearlman, which occurred in a tunnel near the

K ieschnick b ack on tw o days rest before he in serts H ale to 
hold a lead, like he d id in the A rizona State R egional.

A slick fielding sh o rtsto p u p the m id d le rem ains — 
Todd West th is year h as only nine erro rs co m p arab le to 
H a rk rid e r's 12 in 1993.

Both team s im p ro v e d their trouble areas once the p o st­

season began.

By The Associated Press
C H IC A G O — C hicago C ubs m anager D on Baylor said 
he w ill m eet w ith S am m y Sosa to try to resolve a d isp u te 
betw een the tw o over w h at the outfielder thinks is nega­
tive criticism.

“W e'll talk. T h at's all I'm going to say," Baylor said after 
the C u b s com pleted a three-gam e sw eep of A rizona w ith 
a 9-4 victory W ednesday. "It's silly. We'll try to get it 
resolved. W e'll talk ab o u t it like m en, not like children."

Sosa, w ho hit his 18th hom e run in the victory, agreed 

the tw o should meet.

"W e both need to sit dow n and talk about it like m en," 
Sosa said. "I'm going to apologize. We both m ade m is­
takes."

Before W ednesday's gam e, Sosa said he felt he w as 
unfairly criticized by Baylor since he w as nam ed m anager 
in N ovem ber.

"I'v e been playing here eight, nine years an d I've been 
playing hard every day," Sosa said before the gam e. "I've 
been carrying baseball the last tw o years. E verything I've 
been doing in baseball in the city of C hicago — I d o n 't 
d eserve this."

Sosa said Baylor suggested he try to becom e a m ore 
"com plete player" a n d retu rn to his 30-30 form w h en he 
stole 30 bases in 1993 an d '95.

"You d o n 't criticize a player w ho com es here every day 
an d plays h ard ," Sosa said. "I'm still try in g to find the 
an sw e r w hy [Baylor criticized him ]."

Baylor den ied he m ad e any of the com m ents.
" H e got som e things off his chest," the m an ag er said of 

Sosa. "I never said those things."

A lthough Sosa hom ered in the C ubs' victory, he also 
com m itted a fielding error in the seventh th at led to a D ia­
m ondbacks run. It w as Sosa's third error in four gam es.

Sosa spoke o u t after a colum n in the Chicago Tribune on 
Sunday, titled "S w apping Sosa w ould kick-start C ubs 
rebuilding." In the article, a C ubs source identified as 
som eone "o th er than Baylor" criticized S osa's defensive 
abilities, saying, "Sam m y m ight drive in 150 runs, b u t he 
m ight let in 45."

ASSOCIATED PRESS
Sammy Sosa is set to meet with Chicago manager Don Baylor.

Sosa w as ask ed if th e re w as a m is u n d e rsta n d in g 

betw een him self and his m anager.

"N o t on m y side," Sosa said. "From Day O ne, I am the 
target. I play h ard every day. I d o n 't know w h at else 
S am m y Sosa can do. I'm nev er hurt. W hy me? I'm inno­
cent."

Baylor said he believes in challenging players to m oti­
vate them . "T hat's me. I'm alw ays p u sh in g players to 
becom e better," he said.

O ver the w eekend, Baylor said the team w ould have to 

consider a trade if the C ubs fell fu rth er o u t of contention.

"O f course, w ith any possible trad e," he said, "y o u 'd 

w a n t to hear w h at you could get in return."

Sosa declined to respond w h en asked if he believes he 
m ig h t not be w ith the C u b s for m uch longer. As a player 
w ith 10 years in the m ajor leagues and five w ith the sam e 
team , Sosa has the right to refuse a trade.

"I d o n 't know w h a t's going to h ap p e n ," Sosa said. "I 

really w an t to stay here in C hicago."

Minor leagues not as appealing as stocks to Rocker

ROCKER, 
from 7

B raves club h o u se a couple of h o u rs before S u n d a y 's 
gam e against the N ew York Yankees. The reporter w as in 
A tlanta to d o a story on the rem atch of last y ea r's World 
Series. 

•

"F o r a m inute-an d -a-h alf, I yelled a t h im ," Rocker said. 
"I d id n 't u se profanity. I told him w h a t a bad article 1 
th o u g h t it w as. ... I told him a lot of stuff h e p u t in the 
article d id n 't need to be said."

H e said h e blam es P earlm an for causing the public o u t­
cry th a t follow ed publication of the rem arks in December. 
Rocker w as su sp e n d ed for a m onth an d fined $20,000 by 
com m issioner Bud Selig, b u t an arb itrato r reduced the 
sanctions to a tw o-w eek suspension an d $500 fine.

R ocker also believes he sh o u ld get an ap o lo g y from 

P earlm an for "the p a in and suffering he cau sed ."

"H e, of course, p u t the blam e for e v e ry th in g on m e," 

the p itc h er said. "H e said he w as just d o in g his job."

R ocker sa id the confrontation w ith P earlm an w as 

b lo w n o u t o f propo rtio n .

"I scold th is guy for a m in u te-an d -a-h alf an d instead of 
sta n d in g th e re and taking it like a m an, h e h as to run

back an d say, 'John R ocker yelled at m e /" Rocker said. 
"L ooking back, m aybe I s h o u ld n 't have. But th e only 
rep ercu ssio n s th a t g u y g o t to face w as to get scolded for 
a m inute-and-a-half, in stea d of bein g a m an an d saying, 
'I'm sorry for ev e ry th in g y o u 'v e been th ro u g h .'"

A ccording to P earlm an, Rocker m ade threats like "D o 
you know w h at I can do to you?" and "T his isn 't over 
betw een us." The pitcher d en ied m aking those statem ents.
Rocker said he is tired of d ealin g w ith sc ru tin y from 

the m ed ia since his in fam o u s interview .

"You can only politely decline so m an y tim es," he said. 
"E very second o r th ird q u estio n is ab o u t that. T hey d o n 't 
h av e any respect for y o u r w ishes. T h ey 're try in g to stir 
u p a can of w orm s."

G eneral m a n ag e r John S chuerholz said it w as u n d e r­
sta n d ab le for any p la y er to be u p se t ab o u t g ettin g sent to 
the m inors. H e h as not sp o k e n w ith Rocker b u t expects 
him to rep o rt to Triple-A.

"I fully u n d e rsta n d all th e feelings he m ig h t be ex p e ri­
encing. I've h ea rd h u n d re d s an d th o u sa n d s of p layers 
say it before," S chuerholz said.

"N ow , I'v e n o t heard an y o n e say th e y 're g oing to be a 
stockbroker. But I'v e h ea rd a lot of th in g s in fru stra tio n 
from a lot of players."

Video P ic of the Week

By Henry Gayden
Daily Texan Staff

Throughout their years on television, The 
Kids in the Hall's humor has been repeatedly 
branded as "off the wall" by many a fan and 
critic.

This is a mistake.
For by describing the unique troupe in this 
way, one implies their comedy once resided on 
that oh— so—ordinary wall. If anything, their 
first and only feature film, Brain Candy, dis­
putes, if not fully disproves this allegation. 
There was no wall to begin with.

Incorporating a handful of familiar charac­
ters from their TV show into a well of new 
ones, the Kids comfortably transition to the 
big screen in a movie about a doctor who finds 
the a cure for depression: a pill that "reaches

into your brain, chemically, and then it locates 
then it 
your happiest memory, chemically, 
locks onto your emotion, chemically, and then 
it keeps your happy happy."

With this plot in place, the Kids break off 
into an array of vignettes about depressed old 
ladies and even one about a man, who may 
masturbate to gay pom regularly, but wonders 
why those "types" think he's one of them.

Granted, Brain Candy is no landmark film, 
but for once, here's a comic oddity so funny 
it's actually worth it's cult fan base.

It is a film, that, just like the p ill "makes you 
all the 

feel like it's 72 degrees in the head 
time."

"Shove this up your mind.” 
If desire to laugh persists: 
Rewind. Play. And watch 
until sensation abates.
