No. 50 2 Sections Law school admissions revamped RttaPaul Daily Texan Staff In form ation about applicants' personal backgrounds and socio­ economic factors will weigh more heavily in adm issions to the UT School of Law for next year, said Dean Michael Sharlot. Applications for enrollment for the 1998 fall semester, unlike last year's forms, require students to w rite an ad d ition al essay about personal challenges or disadvan­ tages faced in their lifetime. Other factors, such as whether the applicant is the first in the fam­ ily to go to co lle g e , w h eth er English is the prim ary language spoken at home and if the appli­ cant com es from an area under­ served by legal services will also be included. The changes, initially approved last spring by the UT Sy stem Board of R eg en ts, w ere m ore clearly defined by the law sch o o l a d m issio n s b o ard th is month. "This is all part of our effort to g et a d iv e rse stu d e n t b o d y ," Sharlot said. "But there is no guar­ antee what the outcome will be." Minority enrollment at the law school dropped dramatically this year following the elimination of race in adm issions in accordance with the Hopwood ruling. While standardized test scores such as GPA and the LSA T w ill still be u sed , law sch o o l o ffic ia ls said b ro a d er ad m issio n s criteria are important. "If we admitted people just on the num bers, C hery l H opw ood would have her degree from Texas by now," Sharlot said. This fall the UT School of Law saw th e n u m b er of A frica n - American and H ispanic students entering the school drop to four and 26 respectively. L ast y ear's en terin g class at the law school included 29 African American stu­ dents and 46 Hispanic students.

The Texas Student Publications f ^ r d approved a resolution dur- ig an open meeting Friday criti­ cizing Texan Editor Colby Black for publishing racially insensitive cartoons and failing to make an appropriate apology. This constituted a violation of TSP regulations and was "p o o r editorial judgment," the resolution states. The TSP Board, vs*hich oversees the Cactus Yearbook, KVRX, and KVR9 as w ell as The Texan, approved the resolution 5-1. Three voting members of the board were not present, and tw o, including Chairman Seth Caplan, abstained from voting. Black h as com e under fire recently for two cartoons, pub­ lished Sept. 27 and Oct. 7 on the editorial page oí The Texan, that some have called racially insensi­ tiv e b ecau se o l stereo ty p ical depictions of ethnic minorities.

Martinez T SP B o ard m em b er C a leb C anning, w ho drafted the resolu­ tion reprimanding Black, said a sig­ nificant number of the student pop­ ulation reacted against the cartoon in the same way. "T h ese carto o n s are a bso lu tely racially insensitive," Canning said. "You'd be hard pressed to find any­ one who disagrees." But Canning added that there has been no evidence of ethical miscon­ duct in the Viewpoints written by the editorial board. A fter b ein g by p ressed by C a n n in g at the board m eetin g Friday, Black said he did not find the cartoons inappropriate at the time he decided to run them. Black would not say whether he now believes that decision was improper. "M y position is that there w ere things in these cartoons that could be taken as racially insensitive that w ere not m eant to be s o ," B lack said. "W ould I run these cartoons again? Possibly." But Black said once the cartoons were printed, it was his responsibil­ ity to handle the consequences. "1 will not hang my staffers out to dry," Black said. The re s o lu tio n also c r itic iz e d Black for not printing an acceptable apology for the insensitivity of the cartoons. On Nov. 6, Black ran a Viewpoint titled "R egrets" in which he stated he was sorry people were offended by the cartoons and that the content of the e d ito ria l page affected the ability of other departments' staffers to do their jobs. But several m embers of the TSP Board said his apology was too little too late. Black had promised at an Oct. 17 TSP Board meeting to pub­ licly apologize, the resolution states. "1 w as su rp rised not to see an apology, and I was surprised that the situation got worse, not better," said T SP b o a rd m em b er Ju lia n M atth ew P ap p as was the only board member to vote against the resolution Friday. "I could go through this resolu­ tion and find fa u lt in p ractically every sentence," Pappas said. Political speech is always disturb­ ing and open to interpretation, he said "I don't know if they're racist car­ to o n s or n o t," he said . "T h e y 're open for interp retation — they're cartoons, for God's sake." The resolution angered some stu­ d en ts w ho saw th e a ctio n as an attack on Black's political views and on the power of an elected editor. Marc Levin, a Plan II Senior and p re sid e n t of the stu d en t group S tu d en ts for Equal O p p o rtu n ity, called Friday's resolution and the earlier no confidence vote "a run­ away train headed at Colby [Black].” The resolution was being used to attack Black for his co n serv ativ e V ie w p o in ts and to strip p o w er away from the elected editor and to appointed student staff m em bers, Levin said "The elected editor is supposed to have final authority," he said. "The TSP bo ard is c h ip p in g aw ay at that." Levin also criticized the decision to print the Texan permanent staff's vote of no confidence in the editori­ al board on the front page without Black's approval. "T o print what is essentially an editorial violates the objectivity of the n e w s department," he said. Christine Garrison, a member of the TSP Board and form er Texan n e w s editor, said the resolution was not about the editorial board's polit­ ical statements. "W e're a pretty hands-off board," Garrison said "The only reason we w'ould step in is in a case like this where the TSP rules have been vio­ lated." The pain reliever doctors recommend most.

The chief executive assured Democrats he wouldn't "trade a matter of principle" as he bargained for GOP votes. With Clinton able to gain only scant backing among lawmakers in his own party, Gingrich and other GOP leaders made a last-minute bid to swell Repub­ lican support behind the "fast-track” measure. Behind closed doors, they sought c o n v erts by arg u in g th a t p assag e would not only help uve economy but also inflict a humiliating defeat on their political adversaries in organized labor and the House Democratic leadership, said sources who spoke on the condi­ tion of anonymity. In his public comments, Gingrich jabbed repeatedly at the unions that tried unsuccessfully to topple him and the Republicans from pow er in elec­ tions a year ago. "A lot of our m embers resent the kind of pressure that the union bosses have brought into the Capitol" he said. The AFL-CIO says the trade m ea­ sure lacks safeguards needed to protect wages, working conditions and envi­ ro nm ental sta n d a rd s in A m erica's potential trading partners. Countered Rep. Marcy Kaptur, D- Ohio, an opponent of the trade bill, "This is not being fought on die merits any more." For his part, Clinton dispatched top aides to the capítol to lobby for the trade legislation, as well as to seek agreement with Republicans on other issues attached to spending measures. Agreement on those bills — with con­ troversies touching on abortion and the census — are essential to firming up Republican support for the trade mea­ sure. The p resid en t used a n atio n ally broadcast interview to try to reassure Democrats he wouldn't barter princi­ ples for votes as part of nailing down agreem ent on those unrelated m ea­ sures. "If we can't get the votes w ithout that, h en we'll have to regroup and try to figure out some other way to go for­ ward," Clinton said on NBC's Meet the Press. Such an attem pt he added, could come "either next week or when Con­ gress resumes." His comments marked h e first time h a t a m em ber of his adm inistration publicly mentioned even h e possibility h a t a House vote scheduled Sunday night might be postponed.

Iraq hints at confrontation A sso daM Press BAGHDAD, Iraq — Iraqi President Saddam H ussein declared S unday th a t his co u n try h a d " to choose between sacrifice or slavery," suggest­ ing that a confrontation with h e Unit­ ed States might be inevitable. His comments came as Iraq barred U N. w eapon inspection teams that included Americans for a seventh day and sent its deputy prime minister to argue its case before h e U.N. Security Council. M ore om in o u sly , th e sta te m e n t came as Iraq has threatened to shoot d o w n an A m erican U-2 spy plane scheduled to resume flights over h e country Monday. Hussein said Iraq has "been put in a position where it has to choose eih er to live honorably and with dignity or to face all h e possibilities." Films of the U.N. inspection teams' activities in Iraq showed "how much material and psychological harm h e people of Iraq have endured,” accord­ ing to the statement on Iraqi television, carried also by h e British Broadcast­ ing Corp. "This path, however, has not led us to any result, and there is not the least hope h a t it will lead us to any result." "We have to choose between sacri­ fice or slavery," he added. On Sunday, Deputy Prime Minister Tariq Aziz stopped in Jordan on his way to New York, where he plans to discuss h e impasse — as well as Iraqi demands — with h e Security Council. It was unclear, however, if he would ad dress th e full council or instead speak privately with some members. He was due in New York on Monday morning. Despite h e United States' refusal to negotiate, Iraq has demanded reduced A m erican presence in the country, b o h on h e weapons inspection teams and in aenal surveillance operations. But highest on Iraq's wish list is a timeline for an end to stiff economic sanctions — a longtim e dem and of President Saddam Hussein. If h e re are no breakthroughs dur­ ing A ziz's New York trip, Iraq has v o w ed to expel A m erican arm s inspectors. The United States, in par­ ticular, has insisted there will be no n e g o tia tio n s w ith Iraq a b o u t the inspections. In W ashington, President Clinton reiterated h a t h e United States will not allow any moves that imperil h e American surveillance flights, and has stressed that any attack will quickly be met with a counter-attack. "We will not tolerate his efforts to murder our pilots acting on behalf of the U n ited N ations, u n d e r U nited Nations Security Council resolutions," he said on NBC's Meet the Press.

Yeltsin touts border agreement Associated Press BEIJING — Russian President Bons Yeltsin heralded a border agreement with China on Sunday and prepared to push forward deals to burnish h e lack­ luster trade between h e once-hostile neighbors. Arriving Sunday night for his third trip to Beijing Yeltsin also said he had developed a ra p p o rt w ith C hinese P resident Jiang Zem in that allow s h em to forgo formalities and focus on work. They will meet Monday to final­ ize an accord over h e ir often-bitterly contested border and issue a statement on relations. They also are expected to discuss Iraq's current standoff with h e United States over U.N.-ordered inspections of su sp ected wreap o n s facilities, said Yeltsin spokesman Sergei Yastrzhemb- skv. B oh nations are permanent mem­ bers of h e U.N. Secuntv Council. The meeting is meant to strengthen ties that were developed in two previ­ ous meetings, and b o h countries said the closer relations should not be seen as a threat to Washington. "T he progress of certain bilateral relations will not harm h e interests of any third party,' China's official Xin­ hua News Agency said Sunday. "In this way, this pattern of partnerships is totally different from that d u n n g the Cold War." The communist fratemalism China and the Soviet Union shared in the 1950s gave way to nvalry for h e alle­ giance of h e socialist world. Beijing and Washington forged diplomatic ties in the 1970s out of su sp icio n of Moscow. Now' Beijing and Moscow are interested in finding counterbal­ ances to Washington's power. The border agreement, six years in the m aking is being held up as proof of h e ir new cooperation. It lays out h e long eastern frontier, from Mongolia to h e Turnen River near h e Sea of Japan, and includes territory h e two fought over as recently as 1969. The shorter western border is still being negotiated. "T he b o rd er d em arcatio n alone made it w'orth co m in g ” Yeltsin said upon arrival Sunday night Trade is being touted as a key goal of th e su m m it.

This will give business stu­ dents some of the flexibility and enhanced marketability they need in today's continuously changing busi­ ness world. However, the adminis­ tration and the faculty fell short of fully meeting the students' demand by failing to consider the implemen­ tation of double majors. The issue of double majors must be further exam­ ined. The CBA administration has been stressing the inevitable costs offering double majors, while understating the apparent benefits. The adminis­ tration must consider the long-term gains beyond the seemingly immedi­ ate deprivations. The business school must look at all of the arguments for and against implementing double majors. One valid opposing argument is that the adm inistration does not want students staying in the school longer than four years. In its view, students who do will overcrow d classes and lower the quality of edu- Sanger Lee GUEST COLUMNIST cation. Another argument against dual majors is that having them will not make any significant difference to students' education or career plan­ ning. Under the current system, stu­ dents may stay longer than four years and take as many courses as they please, even if they are not offi­ cially recognized as having a second major. Additionally, the administration believes that students pursuing dou­ ble majors take away opportunities from students pursuing only one major, as well as those who would have been accepted to the business school if not for the limitation in enrollment. Although the administration has some good points, there are more compelling argum ents for double majors them. The administration fails to see what is beneath the surface and to consider long-term benefits that eclipse imme­ diate costs. than against The undergraduate program in th^ business school needs more flexibili­ ty to meet today's continuously and rapidly changing business world. Students need more advanced skills and knowledge in many areas in today's business fields. Furthermore, double majors will give students more options in meet­ ing their education and career goals, which may be in more than one busi­ ness field. At the same time, the implementation will greatly enhance the marketability of students in the highly integrated industries. The college is part of an education­ al institution; it must make educa­ tion its top priority. It should offer incentives and rewards to those who invest more time, effort and money to further their learning. Under the current system , an additional business m ajor would require another 15 upper-division hours of students' choice. The minor im plem entation will require stu­ dents to com plete tw elve hours, with at least nine hours of upper division classes In general, the onlv difference between a minor and a second major is six hours, and only three hours in some of the majors that do not offer lower division courses, such as m arketing and finance. In this case, overcrowding or delayed graduation should not be a concern for the double major im plem entation. stressing The benefits of broader education and higher flexibility from the dou­ ble m ajor im plem entation clearly outweigh the costs of overcrowding and slightly limited education in the long-run. Before the importance of the better graduation : rate and higher ranking, the admin- ! istration must underscore its com- • mitments to students, learning, and » I education. The business school must consid-i * er a careful cost-benefit analysis to * reach the most appropriate decision. , By the same token, the administra- * tion students' * demand and their abilities to meet . the needs of tod ay's changing \ industries. For this reason, the busi- * ness school needs to further exairo ine the implementation of double-* majors. should reckon , *1 Lee is a marketing senior. 4 T h e D aily T exan MOMMY, NOVEMBER 10,1887 T h e Da il y T ex a n Editorial Board C o lb y A n g u s B lack Editor Jim D ed m an A sso cia te E d itor A.

VIEWPOINT GentriiiecI Thursday, the Austin City Council approved the first phase of a downtown master plan designed to bnng more residents and com­ merce to Austin's central business distnct. The city council will find its efforts wholly unsuccessful. The council plans to sell and rezone certain city properties, and the master plan calls for a new apartment or condominium complex down­ town. Due to rapid growth, Austin has encountered a problem common to large cities. As cities expand and their populations become more finan­ cially stratified, residents often group together according to income as a method of avoiding property taxes. In other words, if a group of people all earning over $liX),(XX) annually groups together, they may only have to pay a 1 percent tax to support local schools and other local govern­ ment expenses. Likewise, a group of people earning under $30,000 a year might need a tax rate as high as 6 percent to generate tne same rev­ enue As a result, the wealthy have traditionally moved out of the city and created their own tax districts. to su b u rb s In Texas, the b est example of a dty which follow s this pattern is Dal­ las S u b u rb s hke Plano have low tax rates and some of the best schools in the state. Other towns like Denton, |ust north of Dallas, also sport high-qualitv schools and lower taxes. , Great examples of this process can be found near Austin as well. Elgin and Round Rock have become boom towns, overflowing with Michael- Dell types eager to escape high property taxes As wealthy residents continually move away from the inner city, upscale retailers and other businesses will locate in strip or traditional malls along the major access ro u tes which commuters take to and from the wealthier regions The Arboretum, conv eniently located near 183, Mopac and 361), and Barton Creek Mall, near 290, Mopac and 360, serve as empmcal proof that Austin conforms to accepted urban economic theory. Other cities have discovered, through trial and error, that attempts to re-populate central business districts fail for several reasons: First, the city cannot afford to lower tax rates enough to compete with outlying regions Second, any attempt to bring in a specific income group angers Other city residents who teel they are being depnved of the welfare mam are receiving. Already, critics of the city council s plan have brought this up Tne Rev Sterling Lands said, "1 think it's an excellent opportunity tor developing the downtown area, but people w ith mod­ erate incomes .ilso need new places to live. For any housing built, the council has to be sure that it is inclusive to all levels of income, so it is trulv mixed housing " Lands makes a compelling argument for equity, but economics suggest that the wealthy will chixvse not to live with those who an1 not wealthy, as explained above, to avoid the higher tax rates that would be necessary to finance schools in areas of moderate to lower income. The citv council dot's, howev er, have a tew options which could be successful As hits been discovered in Sun Antonio, the dty can build theme districts, such a s the River Walk, that will bnng the suburbanites to the central dty for at least a little while. Austin already has Sixth Street It Kirk Watson really wants to bnng money and commerce to downtown, he should stop trying to convince people to move — and exploit this resource as a means of convincing them to at least visit. t h e c o n d o m e f f e c t The University and Uncle Sam: accomplices to genocide While the debate over fim Bob's Bio Building nun have dud UT's dealings with Freeport- McMoRan 1 1 mtinue to link this public institution to a deadly dictatorship half-wav around the world the Republic of Indonesia.

Through 19o8 Suharto s army killed over 500,(XX) Indonesians all suspected of being 'communists.' Those targeted for extermina­ tion included peasants, democracy activists and intellectuals.

Inelependent political parties and labor unions are outlawed Members ot incipient democratic movements are promptly arrested once their efforts even remotely threaten the status quo. Aid that's just how Suharto deals with his own people. In East Timor, occupied for 22 years now by Indonesia, one third of the population, 200,000 lives, has been wiped out — perhaps the great­ est death toll relative to the population since the Holocaust. Killing;, "disappearances," torture, rape, and extrajudicial imprisonment are daily occurrences on this tropical island, located bare- lv -UK) miles from Australia's northern shore. The Indonesian occupation of East Timor has parallels to Iraq's invasion of Kuwait, only with­ out the frenzied outcry from Washington. In both cases, the United Nations called for imme­ diate troop u ithdrawals. But unlike the Butcher ot Baghdad. Jakarta's Jack the Ripper can simply thumb his nose at U N resolutions lacking jin­ goistic calls to action by Unde Sam. U.S. support goes further than just this silence. The ambassador to the United Nations in the late 1970 Daniel Patrick Moynihan, boasts in his memoirs that ' The Department of State desired that the United Nations prove utterly ineffective in whatever measures it undertook [on East Timor]. This task was given to me, and I carried it forward with no inconsiderable suc­ cess. And it goes further than just the political arena. The United States supplied 90 percent of the weaponry used in the invasion of East Timor. The U.S. taxpayer, through his govern­ ment, continues to support Suharto to this day. The most recent example us the cool $3 billion Washington added to the IMF's $23 billion bailout of Indonesia's ailing and corrupt econo­ my. Why aid such a regime? Because multination­ al corporations (read, "the national interest") are attracted to repressive, pro-western regimes. The Nikes are drawn to large, cheap labor pools and the absence of pesky labor unions. The Freeports like a land of plenty, where the rulers take a 12 percent cut from selling out the inhab­ itants’ nghts to manage their natural resources and stay in their ancestral forests, sans mining wastes. Uncle Sam's job is to ensure the big boys get what they want. Meanwhile, closer to home, UT and Freeport continue their cozy friendship, despite Jim Bob's dealings with Suharto, whom he has referred to as a "compassionate man." And so it goes that students, staff and faculty here have the dubious I distinction of being tied to genocide twice over. * Once through the feds, and again through the ’ regents.

Psycho-babble As could be expected, the policy makers who dominate the life of our university have selected a slogan which is a glib generalization devoid of substance. "We're Texas" is superfi­ cial, arrogant, and demeans the mission of a great center of learning It is psycho-babble! Obv iously gone are the days of Latinate or ver­ nacular expressions of serious academic aspira­ tion and achievement. Leave it to the regents to let .in ad agency do their thinking. Here's a slo­ gan for the University, brought on by regents with cheerleader mentalities: "UT: non sum qualis eram." H W. Hearn UT alum Negligence According to The Daily Texan (Thursday, Nov. 6), David Horowitz basically reiterated Lino Graglia's assertion that the cultures of blacks and Hispamcs do not condemn failure. Any person who reads the sports section in n ew 'sp ap ers can testify that this claim is just not true. There are trtanv excellent black basketball, football and baseball plavers. Hispanics from Latin Amencan co u n tries and the United States also constitute a sizable portion of baseball players, dearly, the cultures of blacks and His- parucs do not deter aspiring athletes, and those who have risen to the top are not looked upon by others as abnormal. Lino Graglia may argue that he was talking about academic, not athlet­ ic, competition. It is true (and sad) that some black and Hispanic teenagers do not see acad­ emic success as important and worthwhile. However, we have to recognize that the origin of this problem is complex. It is related to the histoncal status of the two minorities (many teachers simplv did not expect them to succeed in schools) and the economic circumstances that many of them face (lack of jobs in inner cities). I do not think that blacks and Hispanics are totailv innocent for their current situation, but Graglia and Horowitz's remarks are just wrong. Their assertion that failures are due to cul­ ture are stereotyping and neglect the ever- changing nature of culture. This assertion also impliátlv contradicts what many conserva­ tives regard as a sacred principle: that individ­ uals are the ultimate decision makers and should be rewarded or held responsible for their actions. If culture is so important, how can we explain the gradual growth of the black and Hispanic middle-class, or the existence of excel­ lent schools m poor inner cities? Tsz Ngong Lee Education graduate student FIRING LINE Objectivity This is in response to Mr. Roahn Wynar's column of Nov. 3 which inaccurately misstated many important facts about the Nursing School Continuing Ed. Department, our holis­ tic nursing senes, and misquoted both the Dean and myself. For 20 years, I have been a nurse, practicing and teaching different modal­ ities for helping a person's body, mind and spirit achieve balance and, so, heal itself. My goal in these continuing education classes is to help nurses be aware of many different tools to help their clients so thev can choose what they want to use. It is a disservice to clients to restrict the modalities that may help them. Nurses, since our beginning have attended to not just to the physiologic functioning of the body, but to a person's feelings, thoughts and environ­ ment: everything that affects a person's illness and health. Various prominent and respected members of many disciplines today, including medicine and physics, realize that to truly help a person become healthy and happy, we must consider all effective modalities. The time has passed to completely disregard a potentially' beneficial interv ention solely because it has not yet undergone years of rigorous, quantitative scientific investigation. Shouldn't we at least consider the accounts of people who have become well by using therapeutic touch acupuncture, herbs, homeopathy, massage. reflexology, love, caring and prayer? How can we ever acquire new scientific knowledge if we don't allow the critical mind to at least be open to ideas which, at first may seem unusual? I think, and say in all my class­ es, that skepticism is healthy. I invite disagreement. We shouldn't accept what comes our way without viewing it objec­ tively. However, it might be wise to suspend the part of the mind that often says "No" to all things it hasn't already heard about at least long enough to entertain something new. Many people considered Albert Einstein crazy when he proposed his theory of relativity because it didn't fit into their preconceived notions. I must, in all fairness to readers, point out some fallacies Mr. Wynar didn't bother to research. First all evaluations of Dr Keegan's and my class expressed satisfaction; none expressed disappointment. Second, statistically significant controlled research studies on therapeutic touch have been published in professional journals. Third, there are also research studies on the effects of color, light, sound and music on the health of the human body. Fourth, no student is required to take contin­ uing education classes as part of their degree program at The University of Texas. Fifth the Continuing Education (CE) department at the School of Nursing is self-supporting. Sixth, the Holistic Series in the CE department is not required for Certification as a Holistic Nurse. Seventh, "H N C," by the way, not "H N ," as Mr. Wynar wrote, is the correct designation. Eignth, the CE department offers a certificate of attendance in holistic nursing upon completion of our series, but this is not — nor does it claim to be — the official professional certification. This dis­ tinction is made clear from the start to all attendees. Ninth, the holistic nursing series is only one of many different classes avail­ able in the CE department, which includes senes on informatics in nursing forensic nursing and pharmacology, among others. Tenth, actual cost of a one-day holistic nursing workshop is $65, with a $20 late fee. There are other serious inaccuracies as well. Mr. Wynar is a "columnist," meaning he writes his opinion, not a journalist whose only goal is reporting facts. Accurately reporting what the dean or I said about holistic healing would have encouraged a view of open-mindedness, not his concrete one-sided view. If Mr. Wynar had stayed longer than one hour in a two-day work­ shop, he might have had some of his tions answered — that is, if he was trut ly seeking understanding. Marsha Walker, RN, MSN, RMT, HNC Nursing Graduate Student Simplicity Critics keep lamenting the sim­ plicity of the YCT pledge and obfuscating the argument. Racial preferences in university admis­ sions may be a complex issue, but it boils down to this: When a university uses race as a variable in admissions, even if it is one factor among many, the uni­ versity necessarily places a greater .value on some races and a lesser value on others.

' races deemed value. the Many people of races deemed to have lesser value sup­ port this. Others don't. Since they're both having to concede admissions value under the policy, why is it unfair to ask the people proposing to surrender part of their worth as an applicant to do so first? If diversity is so important, why should people dread giving up their seat to someone in need of part of their worth as an applicant? Moreover, why not give the stu­ dent body as a whole the great benefit of a diverse class? After all, there are plenty of other good schools. W h at's a divine cause Jeffrey Burk UT alum A real team State. W atching After watching Texas drop to 3- 5 for the year, I changed the chan­ nel to ESPN to watch a real team, Florida that game, I could not help b u t won­ der why Texas was not as domi­ nant. You can not tell me that the state of Florida has better high school recruits than the state of Texas. You cannot tell me that Florida State has any less recruiting com ­ petition than we do. You can't tell team. me that FSU has more history or more appeal than the University, but the bottom line is that they win consistently, and we do absolutely nothing consistently. The difference is coaching. FSU is a w ell-prepared, w ell-coached, Their well-disciplined defense flies to the ball, and their quarterback knows when to throw the ball out of bounds and they don't comm it stupid penalties. impressive is the Perhaps most way FSU gets the best production out of what they have by adjust­ ing to the players' strengths, and running plays accordingly. It is obvious that when an FSU player messes up, Coach Bowden lets them hear about it, and the player makes sure not to make the same m istake James again. When Brown threw his eighth intercep­ tion in four games, and dropped Texas to minus 19 for turnovers for the season on Saturday, Coach M ackovic patted him on the tushy. Number 11 averaged over 7 yards á carry going into the game, but. couldn't get the ball late in any of our four losses in a row. What Texas needs is disci­ pline. What Texas needs is a coach who will make players produce and make the most out of their abilities. What Texas needs is a new head coach.

Documents obtained by the n ew sp ap er in clu d e a recen t opinion by the Texas attorney g eneral's office that indicates San Antonio housing officials have turned over several inter­ n al a u d its to the F ed eral Bureau of Investigation.

Mummified corpse found in apartment ■ FORT WORTH — Mary Lou Dennis' unkempt lawn prompt­ ed city code enforcement offi­ cials to leave a note on her door. The 74-year-old woman's utili­ ties and phone service were cut off for lack of payment. The reg­ istration expired on her blue 1990 Caprice Classic sitting in the driveway. No wonder. Dallas police on Oct. 3 discovered Miss Dennis' body nude and mummified in her East Dallas duplex — more than a year after her death. She lay in h er bed, ch e ck ­ book by her side, spent ciga­ rettes from her multiple-pack- a-day habit piled in ashtrays throughout the house. Robert Breckenridge, a field ag en t in the D a lla s C ou n ty medical examiner's office, said Sunday that her body mummi­ fied after partially decompos­ ing because of a combination of conditions in her home. Investigators are waiting for tox­ icology test results before ruling on what caused her death, he said. Police detective Dan Trippel investigated Miss Dennis' death and found that no foul play had occurred. It appears she died around July or August 19%. M iss D ennis w as crem ated and her ashes buried Oct. 21 at her fam ily's plot in Bonham 's Willow Wild Cemetery. — C o m p ile d from A s s o c ia t e d Press reports STATE & LOCAL T h e D a ily T e x a n / MONMY; mVBMBER 10,1887 Exes’ minority scholarships cause dispute Bum IflHir •VyRHV M H W Daily Texan Staff The UT E x-S tu d en ts' A sso cia­ tion's decision to give more than $1 million in race-based scholarships next year has sparked a legal dis­ agreement between Texas Attorney General Dan Morales and Secretary of State Tony Garza. The 1996 Hopwood ruling by the Fifth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals barred Texas public universities from using race as a factor in admissions, financial aid, sch olarship s and recruitment and retention programs. The Texas Leader Scholarships offered by the Exes are from private donors — not public funds — to help the University compete with colleges in other states that can offer minority scholarships and financial aid. But G arza said la st w eek the Texas Exes program is an extension of the University, making the new minority scholarship illegal. Morales disagrees. "H e doesn't see a problem with it," said Ward Tisdale, a spokesman for Morales. He added that Morales has reviewed the scholarship program and found that the Texas Exes are not an extension of die University. At the University of California at Berkeley, w here P rop osition 209 banned the use of race in scholar­ ships and admissions, a lawsuit has been filed against the law school's alumni association for planning to create minority scholarships. In Austin, tne law firm Baker and Botts issued an opinion stating that the Texas Exes ties with the Univer­ sity aren't sufficient to render the minority scholarships illegal. But in a memo last week to Larry Tem ple, president of the Ex-Stu­ d ents' A ssociation, Garza stated "the opinion provides no legal sup­ port whatsoever for the course that the association is pursuing." Garza said the association's close ties w ith the U niversity and the U niversity's obvious benefit from the scholarship suggests the schol­ arship is illegal. "Tnis is a symbiotic relationship which exists for the purposes of the host," he said. Garza's memo cited the Texas Exes' lease payment to the University, UT m aintenance of the association 's building and grounds, payments to the association from the University for maintaining alumni records, and sup port from UT Interim President Flawn and UT System Chairman Donald Evans as proof the association is close­ ly tied to the University. Garza said the scholarships could be offered legally w ith m inor changes to the association's stance. He said he had e x p ressed his opinion by persuading the Execu­ tive Committee of the association to opt for the use of the word "consid­ eration" rather than "preference" in the scholarship fact sheet's descrip­ tion of the p ro g ram 's intentions toward "underrepresented groups." Jim Boone, executive director or the association, said he wasn't clear about the grounds for Garza's objections. " P m really not sure where he's coming from on this," Boone said. "It's too bad that you have to get into petty arguments like this." Garza said he wanted to have the situation rectified. "Let's structure this thing consis­ tent with the law, but accomplish­ ing the same objective," he said. "I'm convinced that I have the bene­ fit, in this case, of, quite frankly, being right." Juvenile crime may rise HEEK BANCE DALLAS — While experts celebrate what seems to be a downturn in crime, demographic changes could predict a surge in youth crime just after the turn of the century. In Texas, the number of people between 10 and 16 years old is expected to grow by 14 per­ cent between 1995 and 2010. The grow th will be even g reater am ong minorities in urban areas, considered at higher risk for criminal behavior, analysts said. This "baby boom ech o " means conditions will be ripe for higher juvenile crime between 2000 and 2010, according to the Texas Criminal Justice Policy Council in Austin. Lawmakers, criminologists and law enforce­ ment experts say the state is already addressing the issue, The Dallas Morning News reported in Sunday's editions. "Hopefully we have adopted policies to deal with the increases coming up," said Tony Fabe- lo, executive director of the Texas Criminal Jus­ tice Policy Council. Since the violence epidemic of the late 1980s and early 1990s, Texas has instituted tougher penalties for juveniles. It is now the only state that can sentence teens in juvenile court to terms that extend far beyond their 21st birthdays. This "determinant sentencing” allows young criminals to' serve time initially in the juvenile system, where thev are offered education, job training and counsel­ ing and can be released by age 21. Kids who fail to cooperate can be shipped on to the harsher adult system to serve out sen­ tences of up to 40 years. Juvenile justice has gotten stricter in other ways, too. Many Texas juvenile judges now use a sys­ tem of graduated penalties, called "progressive sanctions," intended to nip crime early. The system has made juvenile justice more uniform and predictable and informs offenders that "there are consequences for your actions," said state District Judge Cheryl Lee Shannon, one of two juvenile judges in Dallas. The changes m ark a shift in the juvenile courts from a "social service philosophy" to a "corrections philosophy,” said Mike Griffiths, juvenile services director for Dallas County. "The knock on our system for many years was that it was a revolving door. With progressive sanctions, you can't have that revolving door." But that new philosophy encompasses more than punishment. It also means meeting kids " a t tneir point of need” and addressing the school and family problems that underlie their criminal behavior, judge Shannon said. Since 1992, the state has tripled the money going to youth probation. The new dollars sup­ port more probation officers and a new system of alternative schools for kids who have been expelled from public school. Dallas Police Chief Ben Click said the city is already seeing some early positive effects: The last two years brought a significant drop in overall juvenile arrests. He credits juvenile justice changes, commu­ nity-oriented policing and a flurry of activity by nonprofit groups, churches, civic organiza­ tions and local agencies targeting at-risk youth. "It's really up to us, because if we don't do any better the next 10 or 20 years than we did the last 20, yeah, we're in for a tough time,” Click said. " ... We're going to have a lot of kids grow up who are going to be tax users instead of taxpayers and terrorize us and be real burdens on society," die chief said. "But we also have the ability to not let that happen. And I'm optimistic because most people I meet understand that. ... There is an urgency that we don't let this happen. We can't afford it, financially or emotionally."

ASSOCIATED PRESS Residents worried about expansion of uranium dump CORPUS CHRISTI — A uranium mining company's planned expan­ sion has residents of a rural South Texas area angry and concerned about their futures. Farmers and ranchers worry that the operation about 40 miles south­ west of Corpus Christi is threaten­ ing groundwater that supports their businesses. They also fear the value of their land will drop. The mining company, Uranium Resources Inc., is seeking a permit to expand its operations from min­ ing fields based six miles east of Ricardo, north toward Kingsville. A group of residents organized as South T exas O pposes Pollution wants the Texas Natural Resource Conservation Commission to stage a hearing before allowing the min­ ing company to grow. " I think everybody in Kingsville ought to be up in arms about what is going on at that mine, and what it is doing to our water and air," said Id ela Stru b h a rd t, a 7 8 -y e a r-o ld rancher from Riviera who is presi­ dent of STOP. Rick Van Horn, vice president of operations for Uranium Resources, says the company is not damaging the environment. He added that a lengthy hearing process could put him out of business. TNRCC officials said such pro­ ce e d in g s can ta k e tw o y ears or longer. Van Horn said that even a six- m onth delay in opening the new mining field would hurt. "W e need to be mining that area now ,” Van H orn said. "W e have commitments to sell uranium, and if we don't come through, the people w ho buy from us w ill buy from someone else. It will ruin our repu­ tation.

B oh are wanting heads to roll. But with all of h e legal and political maneuver­ ing, lost in h e shuffle is the fact that when Tech faces UT, it's still a big game to the Red Raiders. Capitalizing on a momentum-shifting 95-yard kickoff return to open h e second half, h e Raiders defeated h e Longhorns 24-10 before an apathetic Royal-Memorial Stadium crowd that felt blessed to know that h e days left in h e season and in John MackoVic's UT coaching career are b o h numbered. "What did he say to us after h e game? I don't know," one UT starter quipped. "All I know is we got two games left before this is over." Texas, which lost despite having quarterback James Brown throw for a school- and career-record 397 yards, has now assured itself of a losing record thanks to h e current four-game losing streak. If h e Longhorns (3-6 overall, 1-5 Big 12) cannot manage to find victories over their final two opponents, Kansas and rival Texas A&M, it will be the first time since former coach David McWilliams' 5-6 season of 1991 h a t h e y have fallen from first to worst. "Before the season, I never would have thought that we would have lost more than three games," Texas free safety Donald McCowen said. "Now we lost, what, five, six, seven?...I don't even know anymore. I just want to win a game before h e sea­ son's over.

Littleton, a dual-sport athlete at UT in two nationally-recognized programs — basketball and track and field — suffered a right knee injury on Tuesday, November 4 during the first half of the Longhorns' annual Orange-White scrimmage. A mag­ netic resonance imaging (MRI) examination on Littleton's knee revealed the ligament damage. The date and location for Lit­ tleton's surgery has not yet been determined. "We are terribly disappointed for Carla," commented Texas women's basketball head coach Jody Conradt. "An injury like this is one of those intangible factors that no one can control in sports. Carla's injury will impact our team considerably this sea­ son. Right now, we need to refo­ cus and look to make up for her loss in the frontcourt." Last year for the 22-8 Longhorns, Littleton played in 23 games, com­ ing off the bench to score 5.4 points and register 4.5 rebounds per game while averaging 11 minutes per contest. She scored in double fig­ ures five times, including a career- high lb points against No. 14 Texas Tech on Feb. 5,1997.

Mitchell will be out for the remainder of the season with an MCL injury. K A SSI PATTON/Daiiy Texan Staff Turnovers spoil strong 397-yard effort from Brown, solid defensive game Mike Finger Daily Texan Staff If only Texas had a passing game, fans had said all season, then the Longhorns would be winning. Add a strong defense, they said, and then the Horns would be unstoppable. On Saturday night, those fans wishes were granted — sort of. Texas quarterback James Brown passed for a school record 397 yards and h e Horns' defense held Texas Tech to a paltry 266 total yards, but a slew of missed opportunities allowed h e Red Raiders to escape with a 24-10 victory. On five different occasions, h e Texas offense drove past h e Tech 20 without scoring a touch­ down. The two most damaging of hose failures occurred midway through the fourth quarter, when a pair of huge turnovers prevented h e Horns from reaching paydirt and getting hem back into h e contest. "The turnovers just killed us," said head coach John Mackovic. "Several of them were down deep where we had an opportunity' to get some points, and it just took everything out of us." Texas' ineffectiveness in h e red zone was particularly discouraging because the Horns turned in arguably h e ir best overall perfor­ mance of the season outside of that area. Brown more h a n doubled his previous season-high passing total, burning Tech's man-to-man coverage for 25 completions on his record-setting night. Rookie receivers Jamel Thompson (143 yards) and Kwame Cavil (112 yards) also set UT records against the Raiders, as h e y shattered the single­ game mark for freshmen. On defense, the Horns had their best game since the season-opener against Rutgers, holding h e Raiders to only 96 first-half yards before Dane Johnson reeled off a 95- yard kickoff return to open the third quarter. But Texas couldn't take advantage of those potentially breakthrough-like showings, and that just added further disappointment to an already frustrating season. "It's just kind of depressing, because we can't win a game no matter what we do," said run­ ning back Ricky Williams, who managed 80 yards despite a stacked defensive front specifi­ cally intended to stop him. "We can't win when we run and we can't win when we pass Among the list of ways that the Horns let another one slip away: ■ Brown threw an ill-advised pass midway through h e second quarter with the Horns driving that was intercepted by Tonv Darden at the Tech 44, foiling Texas' hopes to extend h e ir lead to two scores before halftime. ■ On h eir last drive of h e third quarter, h e Horns were able to earn a first-and-goal from h e Tech 4. But Texas elected to run three unsuc­ cessful pass plays at h a t point, and were forced to settle for a chip-shot field goal by Phil Daw­ son to cut h e Raiders' lead to 17-10. ■ After Tech added another touchdown, h e Horns looked as hough h ey were only a play away from trimming h e lead back to seven, as Brown drove h e offense 68 yards to h e Tech 7. But on h e next play, h e senior quarterback scrambled all over h e field and evaded count­ less pursuers before chunking a pass directly at Johnson in h e endzone, wasting yet another golden opportunity. ■ On Texas' next drive, h e Horns once again ventured deep into Tech territory, but after Brown left h e game temporarily with a hyper­ extended knee, backup quarterback Richard Walton fumbled h e ball away at h e Raider 12. ■ Finally, Texas regained possession with almost three minutes remaining and moved h e ball effectively but kept h e ball inbounds and refused to go for h e deep ball despite h e fact h a t time was running out and the Horns needed two scores to tie. By h e time Brown finally threw into h e endzone for Cavil, h e game's final seconds had expired. "[Texas] did exactly what we didn't want h em to do," Tech coach Spike Dykes said of the Horns' wasted success on offense. "They took the lead early, but we fought back." Horns bow out vs. Aggies in tourney Mkrtiael Chamy Daily Texan Staff It is often said that h e third time is the charm. Sometimes, hough, a second chance is all you get. Unfortunately for h e Lady Long­ horns, twice was not enough. The Horns fell to Texas A&M for h e sec­ ond time this year, Friday in h e Big 12 semifinals at the Blossom Soccer Complex in San Antonio. The 3-1 loss sent h e Horns packing and h e Aggies to h e Big 12 finals. The Horns (10-10), riding the momentum from Thursday's dra­ matic eleventh-hour win over Col­ orado, jumped out to an early lead on a Carol Finch goal 13:07 into h e match, and led 1-0 at halftime. Min­ utes into h e second half, Big 12 Player of h e Year Bryn Blalack scored to tie h e game. Junior forward Sharon Pickering h e n notched the deciding goal on a breakaway 15:14 into the second half. Freshman midfielder Nicky Thrasher later jammed h e final goal into the net on an an assist by fresh­ man Alison Peters. "We played a good team tonight," Texas coach Dang Pibulvech said. "We had h e m scared in h e first half, but we made some errors in h e second half. We had two things we wanted to accomplish this season. We wanted to beat Nebraska and A&M. We fell one short." The Aggies dominated play in h e second half, holding h e Horns to only five shots on goal. The Aggies ended the match w ith 21 shots, while Texas finished with only 10. Texas goalie Cami Vamadore kept h e Horns afloat w ih 11 saves, but it was h e dearth of shots h a t eventu­ ally doomed h e Horns. Finch, a senior, took solace in cracking h e semis, something the team was unable to do last year. "Getting past h e first round was exciting," she said. "We really want­ ed to win for h e eight seniors." The group, which includes defender Sarah Trombley, goalie Jamie Strong, and midfielder Aimee Dipaulo, may have played the last game of their colle­ giate careers. The Horns, w ih a .500 record, are far from guaranteed a spot in h e 32 team NCAA tournament, which kicks off next weekend. Texas 2 step Baylor, Tech fall to UT over weekend Mike Wilson Daily Texan Staff For two-time all-American Demetria Sanee, records just keep on falling. has In only her third year as a Longhorn, | Sanee already etched h her name next to many Texas individual records on her way to leading h e Horns to an 18-3 record and a No. 8 ranking in the nation. And in h e Horns' pair of matches this past weekend with Baylor and Texas Tech, Sanee added yet another honor to her already distinguished career as her 28 total kills moved her into third place in Texas' all-time kills list, surpassing Janine Grem- mel and Dawn Davenport.

JON PATTUIO/Oaily Texan Staff Pluaso seo Volleyball, page 10 Cowboys use 9 sacks to pummel Cardinals, 24-6 IRVING — The Dallas Cowboys are still dealing w ih reality. They know Sunday's 24-6 victory over the Arizona Cardinals is only a small step toward saving a season that was on h e brink of going down h e drain. Accordingly, there was no huge celebration in tire dressing room fol­ lowing the victory. "It's not possible to get excited over this one," said quarterback Troy Aikman. "It should help our confidence, no question." "This was a very good win emo­ tionally in h e light of our losses," said comerback Deion Sanders. "Isn't a win wonderful? Hopefully, we will run h e table. Hopefully, we can build on this for next week and h e rest of h e season." There's nothing like a heavy dose of distractions to galvanize h e Cowboys. Under .500, battling injuries and rumors of coach Barry Switzer's dis­ missal, h e Cowboys got back to 5-5 w ih a 24-6 victory over Arizona. They fashioned it w ih nine sacks, two rare touchdowns rushing and another big play by Herschel Walker. "It's a game we needed to have, we feel we need all of hem ," said Aikman. "It's something to build on. We still understand where we are. We can't get excited yet." Dallas, its confidence shaken after two consecutive losses, beat the team that helped turn its season sour w ih a 25-22 overtime win on Sept. 7. Switzer and owner Jerry Jones spent tire week denying reports Switzer was on his way out. The turmoil didn't seem to bother a team playing without three offensive starters: fullback Daryl Johnston, tackle Mark Tuinei and guard Nate Newton. "As an organization we've learned to deal w ih any distractions," Aikman said. "This week wasn't very high on h e list of distractions we've had around here before." Switzer was subdued after h e game, saying "we played hard. We played good." Jones chipped in that he was "proud of Barry. We have a great chance for a storybook season." Dallas, winners of all four of its home games, has four out of h e last six at home. "We dug a hole and one game doesn't bring us out of it," said run­ ning back Emmitt Smith. "It's the longest week I've ever had," said wide receiver Michael Irvin. Walker came to the rescue for the Cowboys in h e second quarter, much as he did two weeks ago w ih a game-winning 64-yard touchdown reception against Jacksonville. This time Walker beat linebacker Jamir Miller on an 11-yard touchdown pass from Troy Aikman w ih 1:04 left in the half. Aikman hit all four passes for 58 yards on the 81-yard drive before lofting a perfect pass to Walker in the comer of the end zone over Miller's outstretched hands. t Page 10 Monday, Novenffber 1 0 ,1 9 9 7 T h e D a ily T ex a n Penders stays home, Horns cruise anyway nnm r m q m Daily Texan Staff Even from his living room sofa, Tom Penders can have a significant influence on a basketball game just ask his players. The Texas head coach underwent surgery to have a heart defibrillator implanted last week and abstained from Sunday night's Runnin' Horns exhibition with the North Melbourne Giants, but he still managed to receive his share of credit for Texas’ 105-66 triumph. 'We re scared of him even though he w asn't there/' said forward Gabe Muoneke, who led all scorers with 18 points on the night. "H e's going to get to look at the [game] tape." Penders had been plagued with a kidney problem for the past few weeks, an ailment that doctors believed to be related to a heart condition called car­ diomyopathy, which he was diagnosed with in 1991 Cardiomyopathy is best-known as the disease that killed Loyola Marymount star Hank Gathers. On Thursday, the 52-year-old coach had the defib­ rillator implanted at the Texas Heart Institute in Houston. The device, which Penders described as "the size of a cigarette lighter/ is intended to auto­ matically correct any sudden heart irregularities that Penders may encounter in the future. "I feel fine, except for a little soreness in my shoulder I m (where the device was implanted),' Penders said kind of relieved that we know what's going on now." Assistant coach Eddie Oran took over for Penders against the Giants, a professional squad from Australia that has been touring the U.S. this fall. Oran will also lead the Horns in their season opener against Princeton on Tuesday while Penders recovers from surgery. "I just wanted to take the pressure off of the guys and not have them worry about what's happened [to Penders]," Oran said. "This last week and a half has really made me appreciate Tom's position, on and off of the court." Penders' trademark running style was all over the floor on Sunday night, as the Horns delighted the Erwin Center crowd with a bevy of long-range jumpers and fast-break dunks. Texas racked up 14 treys and 12 jams on the night. "Everybody contributed and we played unselfish­ ly," said Muoneke: "Hopefully we can take this game and build off of it." One of the most encouraging signs of the night was the play of freshman center Chris Mihm, who turned in an impressive 16-point, seven-rebound perfor­ mance in only 18 minutes of action. Only one week removed from returning to action from an ankle injury, Mihm had spurts in which he complete­ ly took control of the game. At one point in the first quar­ ter, the seven-footer reeled off two-straight NBA-quality spin moves for layups before slamming home a spectac­ ular alley-oop pass from Anthony Goode. "It felt good to finally be banging on a different team," Mihm said of the exhibition. "Tonight was a lot of fun." Volleyball: Tech, Baylor no match for Horns Continued from page 9 Big 12 record to 14-0, the longest streak in conference history, and pushed their overall winning streak to 15 matches. "We're playing at a pretty' high level right now, head coach Jim Moore said. "We are coming out well every night, and that is exciting Along with her record number of kills, Same also reside among all-time Texas elite in career attacks (4th), solo blocks (10th) and digs (6th). Sanee was named Big 12 Player of the Vfeek tor Oct. 20-26, and had a sensational 32 kill, 15 dig performance against the U.S. National Team Oct. 28, outperforming everyone on the floor. The weekend started with a 1-0 sweep of Baylor, improving Texas record against the Bear s to 42-0. Junior Lakisha Bledsoi ported a career-high 12 digs to go along with a 12 kill performance. The Horns put up another impres­ sive defensive performance, racking up 16 total blocks. Texas also limited Bay­ lor star Elisha Polk to just 12 kills on 39 attacks for a .154 hitting percentage. "W e're really con cen tra.ing on defense right now, Sanee said. "We know that it isn't one of our strong points but if we im p r o v e enough it will really help us in the long run And while the Horns s a y they did- n't make stopping Polk a priority, they admit that it was tough to av oid her. "It was hard not to f i x c i s on her, they set her the ball the first 15 times or so," Bledsoe said of the Ba\ lor attack that focused primario on Polk. It wasn t a conscious effort on our part, we just placed d* fenM again;-1 the person that kept attacking us. The c o n t e s t with Texas Tech was much of t h e same The team accu­ m u l a t e d 23 total blocks in holding t h e Red Raiders to a 090 hitting per­ centage. That marked the fourth time that the Horns have held an opponent under .100, and the sec­ ond time this season versus Tech. Another highlight for Texas was senior setter Pavlina Steffkova, who picked up 42 assists and 10 digs to lead the team Moore said that Stef- fkova's outstanding play is what makes his offense work and what makes the Horns so dangerous. "Somewhere, somebody along the line has got to give Pavlina credit, M oore said. "You can't be a good team without a good setter, and Pavlina has been making a lot of great plays and good decisions. ' Texas continued its impressive hit­ ting performance of late, connecting on 54 of its 111 attacks for a .369 percent­ age. The outing marked the ninth time this season that the Horns have bested the .300 mark, and not surprisingly hold a 9-0 record in those matches.

For more information call 384-6193 or 441-4531 UT tennis finds answers Daily Texan Staff Heading into the spring, the third ranked University of Texas women's tennis team had two main questions to answer. First, would the young Lady Horns be well tested and ready come match play? Second, who would play doubles behind the ninth best duo in the country of Cristina Moros and Sandy Sureephong? Those questions were answered as the Lady Longhorns hosted the ITA Southwest Regional Championships this past weekend. In singles play, the answer appears to be "Yes," as the Lady Horns responded to the challenge. Junior Laura Berendt had her best performance of the fall, reaching the semifinals before falling to eventual champion Romana Tedjakasuma of Nicholls State University, 6-3, 6-2. Freshmen Janet Walker and Kim Gates proved they were ready to play as well before running into Ted- jakasuma in the third and fourth rounds, respectively. Walker went down 6-1, 6-0, while Gates put up a fight before falling 6-3, 7-6. Even in early defeats the Lady Long­ horns looked impressive as sophomore Michelle Faucher and jv nior Anne Pas­ tor both posted 6-0, 6-0 shutputs in the first round before dropping in the sec­ ond and third rounds. "I was very pleased with our singles play, said coach Jeff Moore. "We seem to have a strong foundation and look better prepared for the spring." In doubles action, Moros and Sureephong mowed through the playing field with £ ase as they head­ ed to the finals to play very familiar opponents — each other. In order to solve his doubles 'dilemma, coach Moore decided to experiment by breaking up his dom­ inant duo and pair them up with dif­ ferent partners. The results were the overwhelmingly positive as Lady Horns posted an all-Texas final for the second consecutive year. Moros teamed up with Berendt to make up foe top seeded doubles team and advance to foe final. Sureephong and Gates paired up and played the role of spoilers upsetting foe No. 2 and No. 7 seeds before meeting their team­ mates in foe final. The final proved to be very intense and emotional as Sureephong and Gates prevailed in straight sets 6-3, 6- 4. Moros and Berendt never really seemed to get in a groove and even when they did, foeir teammates always had an ariswer. "The emotions affected us a little, but they played solid throughout and deserved to win," said Moros. "I that really hated playing m atch," added Sureephong, " I t s hard because we're a close team and someone eventually has to lose." In the end, the Southwest Región- ais answered Texas' most important questions and proved the Horns are ready to play. Wrong Williams wins war Jeff McDonald Daily Texan Staff It was an occurrence that even the most casual follow­ er of Texas football had witnessed many a time over the past three years. With his team holding onto a slim lead late in a football game, a man named Ricky Williams took handoff after handoff, then juked and jitterbugged his way to glory. But when it happened again Saturday at Royal-Memo­ rial Stadium, the Ricky Williams that ran roughshod over an overmatched opponent w asn't wearing burnt orange or his familiar jersey No. 11. He didn't have a snappy nickname or high Heisman hopes. In fact, the Ricky Williams who turned heads over the weekend didn't even play for the home team. In what had been dubbed the "Battle of the Rickys", it was Texas Tech's starting halfback — also named Ricky Williams — who got the better of the matchup, rushing for 138 yards on 25 carries and leading the Red Raiders to a 24- 10 win before a slightly confused crowd of 76,110. ‘I think a lot of people thought he would get the bet­ ter of me," Tech's Williams said of UT's more high-pro­ file version. "I think I came out and surprised every­ body. 1 let them know that I can run the ball, too." Oh, Williams surprised everyone alright — including foe Texas defense. The Duncanville product, a true freshman who had to beat out a handful of candidates to secure the starting nod this year, came into the contest averaging just 70.4 yards per outing, hardly a head-turning number. But, given an opportunity for more touches due to a hamstring injury to star Tech receiver Donnie Hart, Williams cruised to nearly double that number Saturday. "We knew they would run the ball, because they had a key receiver out," UT safety Donald McCowen said. "But you have to give them a lot of credit — they made a lot of good holes for their runner Ricky." With his inspired performance over the weekend, Tech's Williams went a long way toward stepping out of the dreadlocked shadow of his UT counterpart. Texas' Ricky Williams, who still leads the nation with a 166.6 yards per game rushing average, was riding a string of four straight 200-yard games. But foiled and frustrated by a swarm of Raider eight-man fronts, Williams could put up only a pedestrian 80 yards on the ground Saturday, and was 66 I think a lot’of people thought he would get the better of me. I think I came out and surprised everybody. I let them know I can run the ball, too.” — nckywrnms, Texas Tech naming back consistently stuffed in foe red zone. "The Other Ricky" no longer, Tech's Williams has finally made strides to make a name for himself other than the one he inherited. "All week long, all I heard was Ricky Williamé this, Ricky Williams that," he said. "I mean, everyone was saying that they had THE Ricky Williams. But after the game some of our teammates said that maybe we had the real Ricky Williams." And when his team needed first downs to keep the clock moving in the fourth quarter, it was Williams the Raider and not Williams the Longhorn who came through with big run after big run. Tech's Williams — "Little Little Earl" — even drew a frame or two out of the namesake's highlight reel, bar­ reling over and then dragging defenders if need be. But at 5-9 and 175 pounds, the younger Williams runs more like a sports car than a battering ram, and made his liv­ ing Saturday mostly weaving in and out of would-be Texas tacklers, often turning sure losses into significant gains. "It was a pretty good day for little Ricky," Texas Tech coach Spike Dykes said. "H e's a real go-getter, isn't he? The big thing is that we had the lead. We were running well and just kept running." And by the time Williams stopped running Saturday, nobody was wondering who he was — or where he was headed. "H e's a real great back, because he never quits and runs so hard," McCowen said. "I feel like in the years to come, he'll be like our Ricky Williams is now." Tech: Brown has up-and-down night Continued from page 9 The biggest surprise of all was that Texas was flashing cham pi­ onship form through the first half with crisp passing by Brown, some acrobatic receiving and a relatively stingy defense — all three of which have been no where to be found in 1997 all at the same time. The Raiders trailed by a 7-3 margin because of UT halfback Ricky Williams' 2-yard touchdown run in the first quarter. Tech quarterback Zebbie Lethndge had only completed l-of-6 passes, and the offense struggled to post % total yards by halftime. But opening the third quarter, Texas Tech's Dane Johnson took the kickoff, cut to his left, dodged three would-be tacklers and out ran UT's J.J. Kelly and Chris Butcher for a career-best touchdow n 95-yard return. The play was only worth six on the scoreboard, but was worth much more in terms of momentum. "It was a big boost for them," said Mackovic, who admitted kicker Phil Dawson should have kicked away from Johnson. "They only had about 100 yards of total offense at the half- time, and they nearly doubled it on one play. We went three and out on the next drive when we really need­ Ffl SEE SCO FOOT B A LL - B A S K E T B f l RES iLL 0 0 0 S - T . - . . Z D ed an answer." Johnson said: "That return gave everybody life. It was in the middle of the game, it was just great timing. They kicked it in the far corner, which is where we practiced where they would kick it." Tech pieced together an eight play, 65-yard drive that was helped along by back-to-back UT facemask penal­ ties, and Lethridge, who was held to 3-of-10 for a mere 73 yards passing, punched in a 1-yard quarterback sneak to take a 17-7 lead. Dawson added a 20-yard field goal in the waning seconds of the third on a drive that was solely based on the one- two punch of Brown and split end Kwame Cavil. The two linked up for catches of 31, 12 and 11 yards as Cavil finished with seven catches for 112 yards on the day. "In practice, we put more emphasis on doing the things that we needed to do in foe games," Cavil said. "We practiced like it was a game situation, and it paid off tremendously." But even Cavil didn't have foe day's best wide receiving performance. Redshirt freshman Jamel Thomp­ son caught seven passes for 143 yards. Brown spread the wealth to 11 different Longnoms to complete 25 of 45 passes before electing to com­ plete two to Tech as well. Trailing by 14 points, Brown drove the Longhorns from their own 26- yard line to foe Tech 7 in foe fourth third-and-6, Brown quarter. On scrambled out of the pocket and forced a pass intended for tight end Steve Bradley, but Johnson corralled Brown's second interception of the day in foe end zone. After an exchange of punts, Brown was forced to leave foe game with a possible leg injury and backup quar­ terback Richard Walton was sent in by Mackovic. Walton's first play from Mackovic was a pass, and foe junior fumbled under heavy pressure from Tech's Montae Reagor. "The turnovers really made foe dif­ ference for us," Mackovic said. "It kept us from getting control of foe game or getting back into foe game. That has been foe single biggest issue that has sidetracked us all season long." Brown came back into the game to lead a 14-play, 71-yard conservative drive to run out foe clock, and the loss also meant that Mackovic is one step closer to possibly being run out of town. What made this defensive perfor­ mance particularly impressive was that the Longhorns: 1) Failed to give up 400 yards of total offense for the first time all season, 2) The defense only allowed Tech's top rusher, Ricky Williams, to gain 131 yards, and 3) They did not allow Tech to score any points off four turnovers. Granted it's the ninth game of the season, but there's always a glimmer of hope. "The first half, we kind of stopped foeir running game, and we shut down all foeir plays," McCowen said. "But in foe second half, they just drove foe ball right down our throats." What’s the Best Way to Add Power to Your Game? It’s not with a Titanium driver.

The one w'ho was the weird, funny priest at the w edding cerem ony? W ell, Bean stars that g uy (R o w an A tkinson), and he's funnv as heck. Atkinson is a comic actor and former engi­ neer who is internationally well-known as the star of the hit British television show M r. Bean, which has been aired in over 50 nations with tremendous success. The humor translates well because there's something about him that is somehow easy to relate to, and the fact that he doesn't talk much also helps overcome the lan­ guage barrier Atkinson excels in this film in the scenes where his character is alone. He gets into all sorts of trouble and causes lots of mischief that appeals to kids and the kid in every adult. A particularly good moment is when Bean acci­ dently sprays his pants w ith water from an ox er-pressured sink in a museum restroom The rest is undescribable. Just imagine what he does when there are no paper towels, an important person waiting anxiously outside, and a blow- drver at chest level. W hile Bean is wonderfully humorous, there is an uncomfortable edge to it for loyal fans of the Air. Bean T V series.

But unfortunately for the salad exp erience, som eone added a bunch of Nutrasweet, and it's got a funky aftertaste. In order to make the character workable for the longer form of the feature film, the writers, Richard Curtis and Robin Driscoll, changed him a little. Somehow, this change leaves the movie with the strange aftertaste. The mov ie is beset with problems. One prob­ lem is that Air. Bean the TV show reallv has no film BEAN Starring Director: Playing at: Atkii Hignl Mi vie: 12 Northc Rating ★★★ Rowan Atkinson plays Bean in the movie of the same name, based on the successful British TV show Mr. Bean. plot. Unfortunately, the m ovie version has a plot. Nothing really happens except for these lit­ tle vignettes and moments that make the aver­ age person yelp in empathetic pain and convul­ sive laughter. Another problem is that the beau­ ty of Mr. Bean's character is that he never really changes. He is basically childlike in an adult world. He does w hatever mean, endearing, erratic, cute, inventive, poignant thing he wants to. He embodies, perhaps, that part of us that we often wish we could be: uninhibited and free from social constraints and having a dam gixxi time. The third problem is that this hum or works best against the uptightness of the Bntish characters he runs into on the show. In context with Americanness, the humor doesn't w'ork as w ell. The British characters are shocked and repulsed at his wickedly funny shenanigans to a depth that just doesn't occur to the average American. W e just don't care. The only judge­ ment that gets loaded onto Mr. Bean is typically American. "W hat a freak! He's crazy!" and the like. It just doesn't have the same emotional power. This movie is on the edge of suffering from w hat w ould best be called the G arfield Syn­ drome. Remember the old Garfield comic strips before he became absurdly popular? Garfield was a mean, greedy, coolly funny, overweight cat. Garfield went over the edge into consumer culture land and lost what made him funny. Garfield became cute, tamed, only m ildly cruel, and very cheesy. The spark of originality was perhaps snuffed by the creator s greed for mass appeal. The w riters saw in this film an opportu- * nity to let Air. Bean grow and learn responsibili­ ty, vet what makes Bean appealing is his irre- sponsibilitv, not his goofiness as such. Now that this movie's innards lie strewn on the floor, don't forget that it still is really funny. The rest of the cast is roughly interchangeable and mostly baggage. Peter M acN icol (Ghost- busters II, Dragonslayer) is as funny as saying "Wombat" in the middle of a sentence for no-, reason, and that's really about it. W h ile the'- ambition of the creative team of director M el Smith and the writers is admirable, they should hav e paid more attention to what makes M r. Bean funny and less to making it a credible fea­ ture film. You won't regret paying to see it, but vou won't be blown away. FOREVER ALIEN By: Label Rating ★★★ It y o u 'v e n ever seen an yth in g rem otely like the strange-Iooking c ir c u itr y on th e co v e r of th is album, you are not alone. But believe it or not, it is actually used bv the artist known a s Sonic sound bite Boom, form erly of Spacemen 3, to make music on this album. H ard to believ e, but he actually uses it as a live instrument. Just ask those who attended Spectrum 's Sept. 30 show at the Electric Lounge. Sonic Boom, whose real name is Pete Kem ber, boasts a n env i o u s collection of old analog synthesiz­ ers, and he puts them all to use on the aptly-titled Forever Alien H e uses a v ir tu a l arm ad a of instrum ents and kevboard models m ost p eo p le h a ve n e v e r even heard of. W annabe musicians, take note as Kem ber introduces you to the full gamut of electronic pulses, sine waves and shrill vibrations — a true "Spectrum " of sounds. U n lik e K em b er's other project Experim ental A u d io ResE.A.R.ch, th ere is a c tu a lly an attem p t to blend in some m elody and create some song structure. A nd to that end, it succeeds su rp risin g ly well at times.

The track lacks the life of the o rig in a l and le a ves ou t the grand drum -riddled clim ax. Still, Kem ber is highly un likely to pro­ duce an ything to m atch some of those great Spacemen 3 recordings. Spectrum is clearly a different ani­ mal altogether. Probably the strangest track on Forever Alien is "C lose Y our Eyes* and Y o u 'll See." Kember produces a m elody, albeit an effects-laden one, behind a bizarre stew of puls­ es, blips and tweaks. It sounds as though a w eary astronaut on life support has nestled up against a. Ms. Pac M an arcade game to sing his blues. The results are unlike anything you have ever heard. As Kem ber says on "O w sley," this album con­ tains "co lo rs of life never before seen in any known Spectrum ." — Michael Chamy 1 : 4 5 - 4 : 1 5 - 7 : 0 0 - 9 : 3 0 L a s t d a y !

Texas All-American Neil Walker said the win, "gives us a benchmark for the rest of the year." KASSI PATTON/Daily Texan Staff Longhorns defeat powerhouse Michigan M ich elle O stroff Daily Texan Staff It there was any doubt that the Horns' loss to Stan­ ford was not an indication of the nest of the season, that doubt was completely erased Friday. The men's swim m ing and d iving team defeated the M ichigan W olverines, 124-117 Frid a y in Austin in its third dual meet of the season to bring its record to 2-1. "That was a pretty big w in for us," said fresh­ man Nate Dusing. "It justified that we really are a good team, especially after getting beat by Stan­ ford to come back and sw im well and beat M ich i­ gan for the first tim e in three years " The w in against M ichigan, another possible contender for the N C A A National Cham pionship, was a very significant one for Texas, especially long-course (m eters) since the teams swam instead of short-course (yards). "This was unusual for us,' said Texas head coach Edd ie Reese. "W e had a very good long- eourse meet without changing anything to accom- v$méK*u)iéti Vi i ií'ii i 1 1 7 .! j""')'''» plish that We had some guys sw im well, and I'm very proud of them ." Sw im m ing long-course rather than short- course, the usual w ay N C A A meets are swam, helped prepare swim m ers like Texas' 17-time All- Am erican N eil W alker and 3-time All-Am erican Bryan Jones for Janu ary's W orld Cham pionship meet, w hich is long-course. Walker broke his undefeated streak after finishing second to Michigan's Olym pic silver medalist Tom Malchow in the 200-meter freestyle (1:54.98) and sec­ ond in the 200-meter backstroke by six tenths of a sec­ ond (2:05.77). Nine-time All-Am erican Brian Esway* led the Horns w ith victories in both his events, the 50- meter freestyle (23.61) and the 100-meter freestyle (51.88), picking up his first dual-meet wins. "W e nad a lot of things come together, said Esway. "It's the first time I'v e felt strong in the water, and I was pleased w ith my swims. Michigan is a solid team every year; and they're great to swim against in a dual meet. They' re a very distance-oriented team, and to come out and beat them is a great accomplishment for us." D espite M ichigan's focus on distance, the Horns were still able to come out ahead. Sopho­ more distance swim m er Jon Younghouse swept both his events, the 800-met/r freestyle (8:20.72) and the 400-meter freestyle (4:04.87). Both the 400-meter m edley relay and the 400- meter freestyle relay claim ed victories over M ich i­ gan, as did the divers. Freshm an Grant Gritz- macher, sophomore John Eisler, and junior Ryan Harm on again swept both the one-meter and three-meter diving events with a 1-2-3 finish for the third time this season. W alker says the w in just shows how hard the team is w orking right now. "It's always nice beating a powerhouse like M ichi­ gan," said Walker. "I guess it |ust shows how hard we're working and gices us a benchmark for the rest of the year. We're realiv happy where we are." Lady Horns finish 4th at SMU event Daily Texan Staff After finishing second last year, the wom en's swim m ing and d iving team placed fourth behind first- place Stanford at the 1997* S M U Clas­ sic over the weekend at Perkins Natatorium . ^ jm e of the Longhorns' high­ lights came in the 200-yard freestyle relay, as they placed second w ith a 1:34.28 time. The Longhorns' relay of freshman E rin H ow arth, fresh­ m an C olleen Lanne, ju n io r E rin M aher and senior Tammie Spatz, felt strongly about its finish and expect more successful results in the future. "W e felt pretty confident [about our relay] going into the meet this weekend," Lanne said. " If we w ork on our turns, starts and finishes, that w ill perfect our relay. W e should fin ­ ish in the top three places at the N C A A com petition." Freshman K elley Persinger met an N C A A qualification w ith her sec­ ond-place finish on the three-meter springboard. Persinger met the qual­ ification standard w ith a total of 275.70 points in the event. "M y first three dives were the strongest of the com petition," Persinger said. "M ost of m y points came from m y third d ive." Two-time All-Am erican Ariadne Legendre was Texas' high point- scorer, finishing fourth on the high point list w ith 43.50 total points. One of Legendre's highlights came w ith U Nebraska had a little edge on us.

She also finished third in the 400-yard in d ivid u a l m edley aqA fifth in the 100-yard butterfly. The Longhorns expected tough, fast competition, but had hoped to finish closer to Nebraska, w ho fifir «£ ished third overall. "N ebraska had a little edge 6n us," Lanne said. "W h en it comes around to conference time, w e 'll by ready for them ." Persinger had sim ilar sentimentsj Said Persinger: "W e had hop¿$ for our total points to be closer to Nebraska's. O verall, I thought the team did w ell. The other team memj- bers not participating this weekend came to support us. I think that says a lot about our team ."
