The audience was silent as mod-

Now in its third century, this
second state to enter the union is

Correct, Jahanian said.
The College Knowledge Bowl,
an event open to any student who
wished to form a team, took up
most of the rooms on the fifth and

Drive-throughs arent just for
french fries anymore.
The University of Kansas
Hospital held its 12th annual drive-
through flu shot program Saturday
morning at the University of Kansas
Medical Center on West 39th
Avenue and Rainbow Boulevard in
Kansas City, Kan.
People getting the free shot
pulled up to one of four nurses
stations Saturday, rolled down
their windows and pulled up their
sleeves.
Nurses and nursing students giv-
ing the injection stood waiting for
cars to pull forward, with cotton
swabs, Band-Aids, and the needle
in-hand.
It gives us great practice, said
Elizabeth Spence, Wichita junior
nursing student.
Gayle Shumate of Blue Summit,
Mo., drove to
get the shot with
her husband
and brother.
Shumate, who
works in a nurs-
ing home, was
afraid of spread-
ing the flu to
elderly people
she cared for on
a daily basis.
My com-
pany doesnt
provide us with
any assistance
for insurance or health care or any-
thing at all, she said. I just figure
were protecting ourselves and other
people by getting a flu shot.
Shumate said she thought the
drive-through program was a won-
derful way for people who couldnt
afford to go to the doctors office to
get a flu shot.
Bob Page, hospital senior vice
president and chief operating offi-
cer, estimated about 3,000 people
got the shot in the drive-through
program. He said they started
administering shots an hour ear-
lier than planned because of a
line across the front of the hospi-
tal, down West 39th Avenue and
around Rainbow Boulevard.
Its a way to give back to the
community and provide a service
thats really needed, said Page.
Anyone wanting to get the shot
had to fill out a one-page consent
form.
Sally Whitaker, director of
clinical skills, said with the drive-
through program they arent able to
monitor patients as closely, which
was why the consent form was
required.
People under
the age of 18
couldnt get the
shot, and nei-
ther could peo-
ple with a sen-
sitivity to eggs
or thimerosal,
people with
a history of
Guillain-Barre
S y n d r o me ,
people who
were pregnant
or who were
currently sick or running a fever.
A doctor was on hand for people
who had questions about a recent
illness or an allergy.

shots fromtheir vehicles. The programwasnt held the past two years due to fu vaccine shortage
and construction around the hospital.
Med Center flu shot event draws 3,000
I think the whole concept of a
drive-through fu shot is one of the
most unprofessional things Ive
heard in my life, but at the same
time I think its a really cool idea.

president George W. Bush speaks to Republican Party supporters Sunday night at the Expocentre inTopeka. The Presidents visit was primarily billed as a showof support for the reelection of 2nd
District Congressman JimRyun, although Bush also asked those in attendance to support other Republicans onTuesdays ballot, and to urge their friends and neighbors to turn out to vote as well.

President George W. Bush
focused on staying the course in
Iraq and tax cuts in a speech to an
enthusiastic crowd at the Topeka
Expocentre Sunday night.
Bush, dressed casually in a blue
button-up shirt without a tie and
black slacks, took the stage to the
sound of Van Halens Right Now
and thunderous applause from the
audience.
The presidents visit came
at a time when several Kansas
Republican candidates are locked
in tight races for state and national
offices. Candidates seated behind
him during his speech included
Rep. Jim Ryun, Attorney General
Phill Kline and gubernatorial can-
didate Jim Barnett.
Bush defended his tactics in the
war on terror, saying they were nec-
essary to fight terrorism and keep
the country safe.
One of the lessons of September
the 11th is that when we see a
threat overseas, we must take each
threat seriously before it comes to
hurt us, he said.
He said Iraq is the central front
in the war on terror. He pointed to
the recent sentencing of Saddam
Hussein as a major victory and said
the war in Iraq was not the reason
terrorists were targeting America.
We were not in Iraq when they
bombed the World Trade Center in
1993, he said. We were not in Iraq
when the blew up the embassies
in Kenya and Tanzania. We were
not in Iraq when they bombed the
USS Cole and we were not in Iraq
when they attacked us September
the 11th, 2001.
Bush said the only way the
United States would not win the
war in Iraq was if troops left before

Ballroom dancing was never a
hobby or interest for Jorge Ortiz,
Lima, Peru, graduate student, before
he saw an advertisement for dance
classes on campus.
He tried it out but found the
dance style fairly difficult in the
beginning.
The first few times it was pretty
uncomfortable; its something youve
never done before, he said.
Over time, though, the patterns
became easier and he continued with
ballroom dancing.
His enjoyment of the dance style
grew, and now Ortiz serves as presi-
dent of the KU Ballroom Dance
Club. The clubs purpose is to teach
and promote ballroom dancing in
the Lawrence community and has
been at the University for about 15
years, he said.
Professionals and student teach-
ers instruct lessons that start at the
beginning of each semester, which
is when Ortiz recommends those
interested join the club. Ballroom
and salsa dancing lessons are held
throughout the week. Members
show up as much as they want, and
pay a $25 fee for a semester of les-
sons. Neither experience nor a part-
ner is required. The lessons, which
attract about 25 people each week,
are aimed mostly toward people who
want to dance as a hobby Ortiz said.
We do the more social aspect, he
said, which includes getting togeth-
er, learning to dance, and going to
clubs.
The organizations third annual
Masquerade Ball will be held at
8:30 p.m. on Nov. 11 at Camelot
Ballroom, 1117 Massachusetts St.
The event is open to the public and
costs $5 for students and $7 for non-
students. The evening will begin
with a free dance lesson, according
to the Ballroom Dance Club Web
site.
Anyone in the Lawrence area is
invited to join the Ballroom Dance
Club. For more information, those
interested can visit their Web site at

mail the group at kubdc@ku.edu.

Attorneys general race
gets ugly in fnal days
TOPEKA Complaints about
negative mailings and phone
calls to voters abounded as the
bitter attorney generals race
between Republican incumbent
Phill Kline and Democratic chal-
lenger Paul Morrison entered its
fnal days.
Kline was upset about mail-
ings by a group with ties to Dr.
George Tiller, who operates a
Wichita abortion clinic, suggest-
ing Kline doesnt care about
making sure divorced parents
pay child support. The mailing
cites a 1997 vote by Kline as a
House member, which he said
was mischaracterized.
Meanwhile, Carol Williams,
state Governmental Ethics Com-
mission executive director, said
Friday shes felded numerous
complaints about anonymous
phone calls to voters, including
calls in which people who say
they plan to vote for Morrison
were berated. Both campaigns
decried the latter tactic.

COMMUNITY SERVICE
BY DANNY LUPPINO
Kansas Secretary of State Ron
Thornburgh hopes new technol-
ogy will help to encourage higher
turnout among younger voters in
Tuesdays elections.
Thornburghs office worked with
Associated Advertising, a Wichita
public relations agency, to design a
new type of electronic greeting card
reminding people of the election
and the impor-
tance of voting.
S t e p h a n i e
Wing, pub-
lic informa-
tion officer for
Thor nbur g h,
said the cards,
known as v-
cards, were the
result of a desire
by Thornburghs
office to attract
more vot-
ers in the 18-to-24 age group.
Traditionally, that age group has the
lowest turnout in elections in the
United States.
We thought this might be the
way to appeal to that group, Wing
said.
The cards function the same way
as any other e-card. Users can go to
the Vote Kansas Web site at www.
voteks.org and customize a card. The
card can then be sent to the e-mail
addresses of friends and family.
Though e-cards have existed
for years, Wing said she thought
the election-themed cards, cre-
ated by e-card
designers Blue
Mo u n t a i n ,
were the first
of their kind in
the country.
Because the
idea is new,
Wing said she
had no way of
knowing if the
cards would
be successful
in increasing
young voter turnout, but she did say
hits to the site increased during the
last week. Fifty cards had been sent
as of Friday.
It seems like people are starting
to take notice, Wing said.
Some students said they under-
stood the logic behind the creation
of the cards, but did not necessar-
ily think they would be effective in
appealing to younger voters.
Matt Sturgeon, Overland Park
senior, said he didnt think remind-
ers of the election would be effec-
tive.
I would hope people would
already know its election day,
Sturgeon said. Theres been so
much stuff on TV and in the paper.
Besides, not a lot of people our age
check their e-mail every day.
Pierce Weaver, Overland Park
senior, agreed.
Personally, it wouldnt make me
more likely to vote, Weaver said.
For those who do think it will be
effective, v-cards are available at the
Web site through Tuesday.

The KU Habitat for Humanity
organization and members of
the House that Greeks Built met
Saturday morning to begin con-
struction on a Lawrence Habitat for
Humanity home.
The greek community presented
a check to the Lawrence organiza-
tion, and a Nail Driving Ceremony
symbolized the start of construction.
The money was raised in an auction
held during Homecoming weekend.
The two groups have cosponsored
the home, both through fundraising
and volunteering labor. This will be
the first house the greek community
has built in three years and the first
house that the KU Habitat group
has sponsored. In the past, the KU
Habitat group has donated money
and labor to the Lawrence Habitat
for Humanity.
We wanted a name for the house
that was neutral for both groups, said
Amy Mathewson, Axtell senior and
KU Habitat for Humanity president,
so were calling it the Hawk House
because it was student-funded.
Members of both groups will be
volunteering to help construction
crews on Saturdays during the week-
ends and Tuesdays and Thursdays.
Work shifts will consist of half greek
and half KU Habitat volunteers,
making it a joint effort. The dedica-
tion of the house is tentatively set
for Feb. 12.
Daniel Larson, Eau Claire, Wis.,
freshman, had no previous experi-
ence with Habitat for Humanity,
but was eager for the opportunity in
Lawrence.
Ive always wanted to help out
with this group, Larson said. Its
nice to come out and help this family
with a house they will be living in.
The KU Habitat for Humanity
group has raised $20,000 and needs
to raise $10,000 more by Feb. 12 for
construction costs.
Blake and Dawn Davis will
be the homeowners of the Hawk
House, with their 2-year-old son,
Tristian, and 8-month-old daughter,
Bethany.
The homeowners are expected
to give hundreds of hours of labor,
or sweat-equity, towards building
both their house and other habitat
houses in the neighborhood. The
Comfort Neighborhood is sched-
uled to have seven Lawrence Habitat
for Humanity houses by July 7. The
Davis house will be the third in the
neighborhood.

KNOWLEDGE (CONTINUED FROM 1A)
Secretary of State adds
e-cards to boost votes
Its like crack for nerds, David
Kohtz, Hays freshman, said. He was
part of the team The Derek Setter
Experience, Featuring Luke.
Student Union Activities spon-
sored the event and many of the stu-
dents involved had fun trying to best
their adversaries and win the oppor-
tunity to advance to the regional
competitions at Columbia, Mo., Feb.
23 and 24.
Kyle Hesed, Ottis senior and mem-
ber of the Sects Defenders, said that
though he loved trivia and his team
had won the competition last year,
he was drawn to the college bowl for
other reasons. Sects Defenders won
again this year.
The two free meals and the free
T-shirt were a big part of it for me,
he said.
Carlie Bittel, SUA games coordina-
tor and Hays sophomore, organized
the annual event, which she said had
been going on as long as anybody in
the office can remember.
Bittel said that the questions
were provided by the Association
of Colleges and Universities
International and ranged in difficulty
from easy to extremely hard.
Kohtz said he and his teammates
had their share of difficult questions.
One in particular came to his mind.
It was Who wrote The Ugly
Duckling? and we answered Winston
Churchill, Kohtz said. Thats our
strategy though, when in doubt,
answer Winston Churchill.
The correct answer is Hans
Christian Anderson.
Kohtz and his team members all
agreed though that the College Bowl
was a fun way to spend six hours of
their Saturday.

MONDAY, NOVEMBER 6, 2006
By C.J. Moore
When Lew Perkins arrived at
Kansas, the Athletics Department
was in debt, cutting teams and
bringing in less money than any
school in the Big 12 other than
Baylor.
Now, just more than three years
since Perkins joined the University
as the athletics director, he has
turned Kansas into the most prof-
itable athletics department in the
conference. The department gener-
ated more than $22.5 million more
revenue than its expenses during
the 2005-2006 school year. Kansas
State is second with a difference of
$8,863,492 between expenses and
total revenue.
Perkins was brought in by
Chancellor Robert Hemenway in
2003 to build a department that
could raise money on its own
and didnt need to depend on
the University for help. It quickly
became clear that Perkins was the
right man for the job.
Ive been with Lew a long time
and hes a master when it comes to
raising money, said Sean Lester,
associate athletics director of inter-
nal affairs.
Perkins went to work immedi-
ately with an emphasis on fund-
raising. He beefed up the Williams
Fund, which is the group in charge
of raising money for the depart-
ment, from a staff of one to 10
current members. He instituted the
now famous points system in mens
basketball for season ticket hold-
ers. In one year, KU athletics was
out of debt.
There wasnt a lot of people out
there trying to raise money and
when I got the job, the Chancellor
made it very clear to me that was
a priority he thought the athletics
department should have, Perkins
said.
Since Perkins took the job, he
has brought in close to $100 mil-
lion in donations. Kansas received
more money last year than any
other year during Perkins tenure
at the University, receiving $31.9
million in contributions.
Only Oklahoma State with $211
million received more in contribu-
tions in the Big 12. The Cowboys
inflated number stems from the
well-publicized large donation of
$165 million from alumnus Boone
Pickens, who gave the school the
largest donation anyone has ever
given to a NCAA athletics pro-
gram.
Perkins said that he estimated
90 percent of Division 1 programs
operated in debt. Kansas has been
able to stay out of the red with a
business plan that Perkins said he
was able to show donors.
The large donations have helped
Kansas climb its way up from elev-
enth to third in the conference
in total revenues, trailing only to
Texas and Texas A&M. Those two
schools, however, do not have as
great a disparity between their rev-
enues and expenses as Kansas.
Perkins said his department
worked hard at educating donors
about the needs of the department,
which has led to large donations.
I think donors want to look at
us and have confidence in us to
do the right thing with money
that we have a game plan, Perkins
said.
Perkins has used this strategy
to obtain large donations from
alumni, such as the donations
made by Tom Kivisto and Dana
Anderson to build the new football
facility. Perkins said another large
donation was on the way that the
department expected to announce
later this year.
Kansas has gone from the laugh-
ing stock to the standard in the
conference on how to build an
athletics department. Perkins said
he had received calls or visits from
at least 15 athletics departments
wanting to see the Kansas model.
It doesnt happen overnight,
Perkins said.
But at Kansas, in just more than
three years, it nearly has.

Max Boot, author of War Made New: Technology, Warfare, and the Course of History,
1500 to Today, speaks about his book Friday at Oread Books in the Kansas Union. He is the
senior fellowof National Studies at the Council on Foreign Relations and spoke about how
technology has changed the way the world fghts war.
By Ben sMith
Sixteen people gathered Friday
afternoon in Oread Books at the
Kansas Union to discuss war and
how it has evolved during the past
500 years.
Max Boot, senior fellow for the
National Security Studies of the
Council of Foreign Relations, spoke
to the group as part of a tour pro-
moting his latest book, War Made
New.
After giving a brief overview of
his book, Boot fielded questions
from the audience. He discussed
technology as a helpful tool as well
as a hindrance in the current Iraqi
war and talked about the neces-
sity of educating troops not only
in warfare but
also in cultural
differences and
sensitivities.
John White,
Leavenwor t h
senior, listened
to Boot as he
discussed the
current prob-
lems in Iraq.
Ive been
reading his
book, White
said. And he
makes many
good points
about the way
technology changes everything.
White and other audience mem-
bers raised questions about current
trends in warfare, about how the
U.S. army is still not large enough
to be an occupying army and how
despite U.S. technology, troops are
still dying on the ground.
In many ways our adversar-
ies are much more effective in the
management of their forces than
we are, Boot said. Al-Qaida is very
lean. Theyre not very sophisticated
in their technologies.
Improvised Explosive Devices
have caused most troop deaths on
the ground in Iraq, Boot said. The
devices are attached to the sides or
undercarriage of tanks in the field
and detonated using small electri-
cal devices.
In the first Gulf War we didnt
lose one tank because we were fight-
ing our enemy from miles away,
Boot said. In this war, weve had
many more disabled tanks because
our enemy has become more adept
at circumventing our defenses.
We dont need smart bombs so
much as we need smart people, he
added.
Boots book, looks at the evolu-
tion of warfare from the French
invasion of Italy in the late 15th
Century to the current conflict in
Iraq.
Boot said that the main pur-
pose of his book was to show how
major powers throughout history
had fallen and
risen depending
on their abilities
to adapt to the
changing meth-
ods of warfare.
Boot said that
the best technol-
ogy came from
using new inven-
tions and adapt-
ing them in a
way that could
be applied to the
battle field.
The Mongols
were defeated by
the Europeans because they failed
to take advantage of gunpowder,
he said. The invention of faster
cars, the use of two way radios and
the application of new tactics won
World War I and World War II.
Its not as if the Wright broth-
ers woke up one morning and said,
Hey, lets figure out a way to kill
thousands of people from the air,
Boot said. Someone came along
and saw a way to use the airplane
in war.

BAGHDAD, Iraq Defiant,
raging and arrogant to the end,
Saddam Hussein trembled and
shouted God is great as he was
sentenced to hang, then walked
steadily from the courtroom with a
smirk on his face.
Long live the people and death
to their enemies. Long live the glo-
rious nation, and death to its ene-
mies! Saddam cried out after the
verdict, before bailiffs took his arms
and walked the once all-powerful
leader from the courtroom.
The hawk-faced chief judge,
Raouf Abdul-Rahman, sentenced
Saddam to the gallows Sunday for
crimes against humanity, convict-
ing the former dictator and six sub-
ordinates for a nearly quarter-cen-
tury-old case of violent suppression
in this land of long memories, deep
grudges and sectarian slaughter.
Shiites and Kurds, who had been
tormented and killed in the tens
of thousands under Saddams iron
rule, erupted in celebration _ but
looked ahead fearfully for a poten-
tial backlash from the Sunni insur-
gency that some believe could be a
final shove into all-out civil war.
A round-the-clock curfew
imposed before the verdict helped
avert widespread bloodshed, but
police said 72 people were killed
or found dead nationwide by day-
break, and worries grew about what
will happen when the curfew is
lifted.
The former Iraqi dictator and six
subordinates were convicted and
sentenced for the 1982 killings of
148 people in a single Shiite town
after an attempt on his life there.
The nine-month trial had
inflamed the nation, and three
defense lawyers and a witness were
murdered in the course of its 39
sessions.
Televised, the trial was watched
throughout Iraq and the Middle
East as much for theater as for sub-
stance. Saddam was ejected from
the courtroom repeatedly for his
political harangues, and his half-
brother and co-defendant, Barzan
Ibrahim, once showed up in long
underwear and sat with his back to
the judges.
With justice for Saddams crimes
done, the U.S.-backed Shiite prime
minister called for reconciliation
and delivered the most eloquent
speech of his five months in office.
The verdict placed on the heads
of the former regime does not rep-
resent a verdict for any one person.
It is a verdict on a whole dark era
that was unmatched in Iraqs his-
tory, Nouri al-Maliki said.
The White House praised the
Iraqi judicial system and denied
the U.S. had been scheming to
have the historic verdict announced
two days before American midterm
elections, widely seen as a referen-
dum on the Bush administrations
policy in Iraq.
President Bush called the verdict
a milestone in the Iraqi peoples
efforts to replace the rule of a tyrant
with the rule of law.
Its a major achievement for
Iraqs young democracy and its
constitutional government, the
president said.
Today, the victims of this regime
have received a measure of the jus-
tice which many thought would
never come, he added.

Friday night, consultants from
the American Institute of Architects
painted a vision of what Lawrence
could look like two decades in the
future.
The relationship between the
University and the city was cited as
one of the most important relation-
ships in keeping Lawrence a livable
community. They analyzed what
steps would have to be taken to make
Lawrence a sustainable community,
as defined by the ability to maintain
a community without wasting natu-
ral and cultural resources.
The six-person team spent
Wednesday through Friday in
Lawrence, studying the citys atti-
tudes regarding transportation,
development, culture and racial rela-
tions. Friday afternoon, they pre-
sented their official recommenda-
tions to the city.
William Gilchrist, the team lead-
er, said the largest problem facing
Lawrence was the ability to grabble
understanding the full potential of
historic preservation, its tangible
benefits and disconnected cultural
assets throughout the city.
Gilchrist also said there needed
to be a strengthening of relations
between the University and the city.
The city needed to bring in more
mature businesses that could form
a mutually beneficial relationship
with the intellectual properties of
the University, he said. Gilchrist said
the University needed to be made
more accessible from each point of
the city. This could be accomplished
with sidewalks and bike paths.
Caroline Lobo, sustainabil-
ity team member, said another area
that had been hemorrhaging is the
cultural significance of downtown,
the University and Haskell Indian
Nations University.
How do you transfer this cul-
ture and heritage to the next gen-
eration? Lobo asked regarding the
proper way to inform the public.
This is for students who come in
from all over the country, those were
born and stay and those who were
born and leave.
Mayor Mike Amyx said the rec-
ommendations from the consultants
offered an excellent chance for the
city to give some shape to future
development.
Commissioner Dennis Boog
Highberger said he felt there hadnt
been any cohesive strategy within
the citys development plan and was
confident they would offer some
sort of framework to proceed.
Other recommendations includ-
ed not building a traffic way, but
a green way in which develop-
ment is built around the natural
surroundings, and implementing
a more streamlined way to apply
for building codes. The team also
addressed citizens concerns about
too much growth.

Madonna says news media
over-publicized adoption
NEW YORK Madonna says the
news media fanned the controver-
sy about her attempts to adopt a
13-month-old boy from the south-
east African country of Malawi, and
that the average person doesnt
care about it.
But when you throw in things
like Im a celebrity and I somehow
got special treatment, or make the
implication of kidnapping, it gets
mixed into a stew, and it sells lots
of papers, the singer told Time
magazine in an interview for edi-
tions on newsstands Monday.
What they should care about
is that there are over a million or-
phans in Malawi, she said.
Madonna added that there was
an element of nationalism and rac-
ism in the news media.
Theres a lot of Brits report-
ers on the street whove said
Why dont you adopt a kid from
Britain? Or Why did you adopt a
black child? Madonna said.
She said she has not worked
harder for anything in her life than
in trying to adopt the boy, David
Banda. She and her husband, flm-
maker Guy Ritchie, were granted an
interim adoption order by Malawis
High Court last month.
The boy has joined her two chil-
dren daughter Lourdes, 9, and
son Rocco, 6 in England.

NEW YORK Director Ridley
Scott knows a thing or two about
working with actor Russell Crowe.
I think were both pains in the
neck. Thats probably why we get
on, Scott told Time magazine in an
interview for editions on news-
stands Monday.
Really, what it is is Russell is
very smart and therefore asks all
sorts of intelligent questions, so if
youre not ready youre going to
get caught in the crossfre. So youd
better be ready, Scott said. Im
used to him now. Hes fundamen-
tally a bit of a puppy dog.
Scott and Crowe have worked
together on Gladiator, are work-
ing on Scotts new flm A Good
Year, and plan to work together on
his next, American Gangster.
When asked if he can tell when
an audience will embrace one of
his movies or not, such as King-
dom of Heaven, Scott said: You
can never tell.
It was a real passion project,
and its the flm Im most proud
of, he said. I think it was treated
incredibly unfairly.

Borat spoof surprisingly

debut.
Borat: Cultural Learnings of

Nation of Kazakhstan, 20th Cen-
tury Foxs incarnation of Cohens
Kazakh journalist from Da Ali G
Show, took in $26.4 million during
its opening weekend, according to

Box-ofce analysts had ex-
pected Disneys The Santa Clause
3: The Escape Clause. It was No. 2
with $20 million, followed by the

comedy Flushed Away in third
place with $19.1 million.
Borat follows the adventures
of British comedian Cohens TV
journalist from Kazakhstan as he
travels the United States, meets
and mocks Americans and re-
ports back to his home country.
It is what you go to the

The University Daily Kansan emphasizes the First Amendment:
Students should vote for
Democratic incumbent
Kathleen Sebelius. Heres why:
Sebelius signed a bill that
requires interest earned from
tuition and fee payments to be
used for deferred maintenance.
The University of Kansas has
estimated its deferred mainte-
nance backlog to be more than
$237 million. The total main-
tenance backlog for the state is
estimated to be $584 million.
But the money will pay for only
a fraction of the repairs.
If re-elected, lets hope she
finds additional ways to fix this
problem, which she seems to be
willing to do.
Sebelius says she has
increased funding to Board of
Regents schools by more than
$100 million.
Sebelius supports a womans
right to have an abortion.
Personal income and per
capita income have increased
since 2002, according to
a 2006 report by the Kansas
Department of Labor. Both out-
paced the national growth rate
in 2005, the report states.
Sebelius signed important
legislation that provided in-state
college tuition for children of
illegal immigrants. The law ben-
efits both the state and students.
Under Sebelius tenure,
Kansas unemployment rate has
fallen from 5.7 to 4.1 percent,
according to the U.S. Department
of Labors Web site.
Steve Lynn for the editorial
board.
In Tuesdays election, the only
choice for voters in the race for
attorney general is Democrat
Paul Morrison, rather than
incumbent Republican Phill
Kline.
Since taking office, Kline has
become a lightning rod for criti-
cism because of his controver-
sial stances on several issues,
mostly his pursuit of abortion
clinic records.
As Johnson County district
attorney, Morrison has demon-
strated that he has the ideal set
of skills for the job of Attorney
General, namely a dedication to
justice and correct view of his
own power.
He has worked hard to com-
bat violent criminals and sexual
predators, and will continue
that work when he reaches the
attorney generals office. He
takes a realistic view of the drug
war, stating that treatment must
be merged with sentencing in
order to truly combat drug use.
Phill Kline has shown a fright-
ening willingness to use the
power of his office to advance
his own personal agenda based
on religious views, and the state
of Kansas deserves an attorney
general more focused on justice
for all citizens.
McKay Stangler for the editorial
board.
In Dennis Moores eight years
representing the 3rd District of
Kansas in the U.S. House of
Representatives, the Democrat
has proven to be a moderate
leader willing to work with his
colleagues, both Democrat and
Republican, to get work done.
While the rest of the House
has too often wasted time squab-
bling over social issues, Moore
has focused his agenda on real-
istic goals and shown an open
attitude toward compromise.
He is in favor tax reform, yet
recognizes that current House
proposals that could do away
with the countrys progressive tax
system would shift the tax bur-
den from the rich to the poor.
He has worked with a bipar-
tisan group to make sure the
recommendations of the 9-11
Commission are taken seriously.
He has worked with
Republicans and Democrats
to attain more benefits for the
families of U.S. troops killed in
action and to reduce prescrip-
tion drug costs.
Republican challenger Chuck
Ahner, who has never held elec-
tive office, says he would vote
to make President Bushs tax
cuts permanent, which could
hurt the U.S. economy when the
country is in a deficit. Moore
voted for the cuts in 2000, before
the economy went into reces-
sion, but voted against extend-
ing them permanently.
In an otherwise do-nothing
Congress, Moore has quietly set
aside partisan politics to get real
work done.
Frank Tankard for the editorial
board.
Students will be better
served by voting Democrat
Nancy Boyda to the House of
Representatives.
Plans to help students
through education and raising
the minimum wage are on her
agenda.
Boyda has acknowledged the
consistent increase in tuition
among Kansas universities. Her
objective is to help students
through Pell grants. With Pell
grants covering less and less
of tuition costs, she says she
would increase them so those
from low-income families could
afford a college education.
Republican incumbent Jim
Ryun and Boyda have two separate
agendas when it comes to mini-
mum wage. While in Congress,
Ryun has not worked to increase
the minimum wage. Boyda sug-
gests working to increase the
minimum wage to $7.25. An
increase is long overdue.
In regard to preventing illegal
immigration, Ryun thinks the
solution is to build a fence. Ryun
supported the recent Secure
Fence Act, an overly simple
solution to such a big problem.
Boyda to wants to protect the
borders but says it starts with
punishing those who hire illegal
immigrants, along with increas-
ing border enforcement.
Not only is Boyda the right
candidate for Kansas, electing
Boyda helps make a change
in the nature of politics in
Washington, D.C.
Boydas platforms are pro-
gressive and provide a new
direction for Kansans. Her
leadership would provide much
needed reform.

A roundup of endorsements from across the state
On the governors race:
Sebelius and her running mate,
Mark Parkinson, are committed
to strong, well-funded schools
and universities. Theyre also a
strong team to encourage new
industries based on alternative
fuel sources.
The Kansas City Star
Kathleen Sebelius wins our
endorsement for the balanced
professionalism she has demon-
strated as governor, the atten-
tion-getting ambassador she has
been for the state, and the good
goals she has set for a second
term. Four years after voters in
this Republican-dominated state
put their trust in a Democrat,
Sebelius obviously knows and
loves both the job and Kansas.
The Wichita Eagle
(Kathleen Sebelius) is an able,
tough politician and is quick to
claim credit for numerous healthy
and sound actions, policies and
accomplishments in Kansas. The
fact is, however, many of these
highly touted accomplishments
would not have been achieved
without the massive help of the
Republican controlled Kansas
Senate and House.
Lawrence Journal-World
The point is that although
its unclear exactly how much
progress Kansas has made under
Sebelius, there are obvious signs
the state has moved forward.
And we think Sebelius helped
steer it in the right direction.
The Topeka Capital-Journal
On the Attorney Generals race:
In sharp contrast to Kline
who has used the attorney gener-
als office to promote a controver-
sial personal agenda Morrison
would make sure common sense
and good legal principles dic-
tate his decisions. Hes operated
that way for 17 years as Johnson
Countys district attorney.
The Kansas City Star
Morrison, a tough-as-nails
veteran prosecutor, is one of
the most impressive A.G. can-
didates to come along in years.
Moreover, he inspires trust that
he will return sound judgment
and commonsense priorities to
the states top law-enforcement
office qualities too often lack-
ing under Attorney General Phill
Kline.
The Wichita Eagle
It should be a question of
whether Kline has done a good,
effective job as attorney general
or whether Morrison, who com-
piled a good record as Johnson
Countys district attorney, could
do a better job. Unfortunately,
its hard to scrape through all
the mud being slung to get to
basics. Wipe off the candidate
you prefer and mark your ballot
for him.
Lawrence Journal-World
Kline has always been a pas-
sionate public servant, and hes
been especially effective at turn-
ing his energy toward beefing
up laws to protect children and
the elderly while also working
to stiffen penalties for criminal
offenders.
The Topeka Capital-Journal
On the 2nd Congressional District
Kansans in the 2nd U.S. House
District who want to see signifi-
cant changes in Washington have
a logical choice: Nancy Boyda, an
outspoken advocate for reform at
home and wiser policies abroad.
The Kansas City Star
(We) believe it is important
President Bush have the sup-
port for his entire program, both
domestic and foreign. For this
reason, we believe it is best for
Kansas, as well as for the entire
country, to have Rep. Jim Ryun
in Washington to support Bushs
plans for the economy, taxes, job
creation, national security and
judicial appointments, as well as
his policy to fight the growth of
terrorism.
Lawrence Journal-World
If you dont think Ryun has
helped Topeka and northeast
Kansas, just look around. He
supported measures providing
funding to replace the Topeka
Boulevard Bridge, renovate the
Great Overland Station and
rehabilitate the hangar of the
190th Air Refueling Wing of the
Kansas National Guard at Forbes
Field, to name a few projects.
The Topeka Capital-Journal
On the 3rd Congressional District
If only the House had more
representatives like Dennis
Moore, the thoughtful lawmak-
er who has represented the 3rd
District of Kansas so well for the
past eight years.
The Kansas City Star
The drive-through program
wasnt offered the past two years
because of a vaccine shortage and
construction around the hospital.
Jeffrey Parsons, sophomore at
the Kansas Art Institute, had the flu
last year.
It was absolutely God-awful, he
said. He drove through to get the
shot this year.
I think the whole concept of
a drive-through flu shot is one of
the most unprofessional things Ive
heard in my life, but at the same
time I think its a really cool idea,
Parsons said.
Im really happy they did it,
especially for the people who are
poor and have to work all the time
or who dont have the time to get a
flu shot at a hospital or someplace
like Walgreens, he said.
According to the Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention, 5
to 20 percent of people in the U.S.
get the flu each year. About 36,000
people die from it annually.
The CDC recommends the flu
vaccination as the single best way to
prevent the flu.

Were not trying to impose anything
on anyone, were just trying to share
the excitement we have for this cul-
ture.
The event brought out a large show-
case of diverse performances. A band
with members form Sri Lanka, Japan,
India and the United States called 3
Wishes and Aliens played a rousing set
centered on traditional Indian lyrics
and beats, punctuated by rap verse and
notes from a saxophone.
An Indian dance troupe from the
Nritya dance school in Kansas City
performed a traditional dance with
ringing bells tied around their feet.
Another group of students involved
in the Cultural India Club took to
the stage with a fusion of Indian pop
music and hip-hop flavored moves.
There was also a fashion show of tra-
ditional and flashy Indian saris and
linen tunics.
Ankit Shah, a performer in the
show and Lenexa freshman, said
that the show used these vignettes to
communicate the importance of the
Diwali holiday. Shah said it is one of
the most important holidays to the
Indian culture.
We light candles and firecrackers
and spend a lot of time with family,
he said.
Sharing meals is another impor-
tant aspect of the celebration, and
the Cultural India Club concluded
the night with an overflowing buf-
fet of Indian fare such as chicken
tikka masala and pakoras.
Maganti said that although the
celebration was a major event for
the club, it will host smaller events
throughout the year such as Indian
movie nights to continue cultur-
al participation in the University
community.

He also defended his tax poli-

reduction of the marriage penalty as
essential to a strong economy.

almost every syllable the president

It got my blood pumping, he
said.
Outside the convention hall,
groups of demonstrators bearing
handmade signs stood on the side-
walk across the street before and after
the event.
Bill Lucero, Topeka resident, said
he started organizing people to vent
their frustration with the administra-
tion as early as Tuesday morning.
This is not anti-war. This is not
pro-environment. This is not pro-
healthcare. Its not pro-education, he
said. Its all those things. Everybody

Lucero began demonstrating by
holding a Got Quagmire? sign
about 2 in the afternoon. He estimat-
ed 150 to 200 people demonstrated

Gabriel Revecik, Lawrence junior,
demonstrated with about 15 other

Kansas 41 IoWa sTaTe 10
Never IN doubt
AMES, Iowa The 41-10
Kansas blowout might not have
delivered much excitement, but the
pregame theatrics sure did.
Rewind to last Saturday, when
Mark Mangino pulled the redshirt
off Todd Reesing. The freshman
quarterback delivered Mangino
the game and saved the season.
On Tuesday, Kerry Meier, who
you may remember as the other
freshman savior, returned to the
practice field healthy after an injury
he sustained at Baylor. Two stand-
out quarterbacks is a recipe for
disaster, but Mangino wasnt going
to be the cook in that kitchen.
Im done addressing the quar-
terback situation, he said.
Throughout the week Meier
practiced with the starters, but
Reesing was told to be ready to
play.
On Saturday morning, with the
fans and media still in the dark, a
handful of Jayhawks walked onto
the field at Jack Trice Stadium to
stretch and warm up. One of those
players was Reesing.
After an hour of speculation
that Reesing would start, Meier
emerged from the locker room
with the rest of the team, and
proceeded to practice taking snaps
from starting center David Ochoa.
In the minutes before the game,
confusion was at its highest. Meier
was stretching his arm. Reesing was
throwing the ball around. Senior
quarterback Adam Barmann was
throwing the ball around.
key plays
It was a day full of highlights
for the Jayhawks. Here are
some of the plays that stood
out:
kansas had failed to get
a frst down on its second-
straight drive to start the
game, and trailed Iowa state
3-0 when the special teams
unit came out to punt. Iowa
state return man Ryan Baum
mufed a fair catch.
kansas linebacker Joe
mortensen covered up the
loose ball and the Jayhawks
scored on the next possession.
at the end of the frst
quarter, Reesing entered the
game for his frst series. Facing
fourth and six on the Iowa
state 29, kansas went for it.
Reesing rolled to his right,
missing a wide-open marcus
Henry to his left. Instead he
waved Derek Fine towards the
endzone and threw to him.
Iowa state defensive back
Jason Harris initially caught
the ball, but Fine ripped it
from his hands as the two
hit the ground. It was ruled a
touchdown because there was
no conclusive replay evidence.
with halftime minutes
away and kansas on the Iowa
state goal line, the play was a
handof to fullback Brandon
mcanderson, who was going
to throw a pass to a kansas
receiver, but none was open.
Instead he switched direc-
tions, and ran for a touchdown
in the opposite corner.
Thats a football player mak-
ing a play, mangino said of the
improvisation.

Meier, Cyclone turnovers boost Jayhawks to road victory
Mangino employs musical chairs quarterback strategy
By RyAn ScHnEIdER
AMES, Iowa Well that was
easy.
For a team that hadnt won a
road game in nearly two years,
Kansas certainly didnt have any
trouble in Saturdays 41-10 victory
against Iowa State.
Boosted by four Cyclone turn-
overs and the return of starting
freshman quarterback Kerry Meier,
the Jayhawks claimed their largest
road victory since the creation of
the Big 12 Conference.
The last time Kansas won this
big on the road in conference play
was when the Jayhawks had a 31
point victory against Oklahoma
State back in 1991.
But the bigger story for Kansas is
that the Jayhawks moved one step
closer to bowl eligibility, needing
just one more victory to qualify
for postseason play for the second
straight season.
Just two weeks ago, with the
Jayhawks in the middle of a four-
game losing streak, a bowl game
seemed like a long shot at best.
Now, Kansas needs just one vic-
tory against either Kansas State or
Missouri to get its sixth victory.
Saturdays game, though, seemed
to be just the rout the team needed
for a season filled with games lost in
the fourth quarter.
Its definitely the type of game
that got us over the hump after a
big win last week, freshman quar-
terback Todd Reesing said. I think
were headed in the right direction
for the rest of the season.
But the Jayhawks will have to
wait a week before playing the most
meaningful Sunflower Showdown
in more than a decade. Theyll have
to find a way to keep the momen-
tum and energy created from the
last two victories fresh during the
upcoming bye week.
I like the fact that were having
a bye week, Kansas coach Mark
Mangino said. The last 10 weeks
have been a grind.
Mangino stuck true to his word
and let Reesing see significant play-
ing time, after stripping his redshirt
last week against Colorado.
Despite Meiers return from a
shoulder injury he suffered two
weeks ago, he split time with
Reesing throughout the game.
Meier was listed as the starter and
saw action on nine drives, with
Reesing playing in five.
On the day, Meier finished 17-
for-22 passing for 199 yards with
two touchdowns, but was sacked
three times and lost a fumble.
Reesing was just 3-for-5 passing for
35 yards, with a touchdown and an
interception.
Neither quarterback seemed to
know what to make of the shuf-
fle that happened throughout the
game for no rhyme or reason.
By MARk dEnt
Celebrations arent supposed to
turn out like this.
The Kansas soccer team gath-
ered together last year to learn of
its seeding in the Womens College
Cup. They thought 11 victories
and a four-way
tie for second
place in the Big
12 Conference
would be enough
to make the Cup,
but it wasnt. Joy
quickly turned
into anger as the
Jayhawks did not
hear their name
selected for the
field.
It was too dis-
appointing last
year to have the
team sit around watching and then
not get in, Kansas coach Mark
Francis said. Were not going to
put them through that again.
No team parties will be held
this year as Kansas awaits its post-
season fate. Francis instead will
watch with guarded optimism this
afternoon between 2 and 3 to find
out if Kansas will be selected to
the 64-team field for the Womens
College Cup.
Kansas has an 11-7-1, 6-4-1
record and lost in the first round
of the Big 12 Tournament. The
record and
first-round exit
happened last
year as well.
I thought
wed get in last
year and we
didnt, Francis
said. Im not
going to get my
hopes up, but
hopefully Ill
be surprised.
Last year
Kansas seemed
to be a lock for the Cup. The
Jayhawks finished in a four-way tie
for second place in the Big 12 and
had a victory against Texas.
By c.J. MooRE
Hes back sort of.
Junior center CJ Giles returned
to practice with the Jayhawks
Friday, but will not be allowed to
play a game until second semester.
That means he will miss the Nov. 25
game against Florida and wouldnt
be back on the court until the Dec.
19 home game against Winston-
Salem State at the earliest.
Giles returns after serving a sus-
pension that was announced Oct.
17 for arriving late to a morning
workout the previous day. The sus-
pension was due to what Coach
Bill Self had called academic and
personal reasons.
The day after Giles suspension, it
became known that he had not paid
child support to Laura Bender, a
Lawrence woman with whom he had
a child. Giles faces a court hearing
Jan. 8 on the unpaid child support.
In the last several weeks, it
seemed that Self was ready to cut
ties with the junior center, but he
never ruled out the possibility that
Giles could return. After meeting
with Giles Friday, Self had a change
of heart.
We have evaluated CJs prog-
ress regarding his various respon-
sibilities, and will continue to do
so, Self said, He will be allowed to
practice with the team, but he will
not play in a game this semester.
This penalty is appropriate for the
lack of responsibility he has shown
to his coaches, teammates and the
Kansas basketball family.
Self added that he will not have
further comment on the issue this
semester. Giles has not been avail-
able for comment since his suspen-
sion began, but did speak through
a press release that was sent out
Friday afternoon.
I apologize to my coaches and
teammates for my actions, Giles
said. I understand why I have
been suspended. I know I have to
improve myself as a person for
my own good and for the good of
the team.

USED BOOKS!
BY ASHER FUSCO
Early in Sundays game, it was
clear that the Washburn players
were not intimidated by the Rock
Chalk Chant or the vocal pro-
Jayhawk crowd.
The Lady Blues led at halftime
and controlled the game until late
in the second half before ultimately
falling to the Jayhawks, 68-62.
Despite often going unnoticed
by mainstream basketball fans, the
Division II Washburn had won 51
of its last 52 games.
From the beginning of the game,
the Jayhawks looked stunned by
the Lady Blues efficient offense
and staunch defense. Washburn
forwards Megan Sullivan and
Brooke Ubelaker set the tone early,
picking off several errant passes
from Kansas senior guard Shaquina
Mosley.
Washburn showed patience on
the offensive end and scored four
first-half three pointers. Fortunately
for the Jayhawks, the second half
in no way resembled the first.
Freshmen guards Kelly Kohn and
LaChelda Jacobs injected some life
into the home crowd with timely
steals and fiery play on defense.
Coming into the second half we
knew what we needed to do, Kohn
said. We told ourselves to pick up
the defensive intensity.
Kohn finished with five rebounds
and seven points, but her biggest
contribution came with eight sec-
onds remaining when she stole an
inbounds pass to ensure the Kansas
victory.
Jacobs made only two of her
nine shots in the second half, but
thoroughly frustrated the Lady
Blues with her four steals.
LaChelda Jacobs made a dif-
ference today, coach Bonnie
Henrickson said. I loved her
enthusiasm and her effort defen-
sively.
While a narrow exhibition victo-
ry against a Division II team might
look like a disappointment, a closer
look reveals that the inexperienced
Jayhawks made substantial progress
on Sunday.
Henricksons team features seven
freshmen, making it the least-expe-
rienced in the Big 12. Henrickson
opted to give her freshmen a trial
by fire, and it worked. The new-
comers accounted for 56 percent of
the minutes played and 50 percent
of the teams points in Sundays
victory.
With several tough non-con-
ference games coming up, facing
opponents like Washburn early in
the season could be beneficial for a
young, but maturing, Kansas team.

BY CASE KEEFER
Marija Zinic struggled, going 1-
for-5 from the field, in the first half
of Sundays exhibition game against
Washburn.
In the second half, however, Zinic
played the whole 20 minutes and led
her team to a 68-62 comeback vic-
tory against the Lady Blues.
With junior guard Taylor
McIntosh in foul trouble and on the
bench for the majority of the second
half, it was Zinics time to shine. The
sophomore forward led the team
with 15 points and seven rebounds.
She was also 9-for-12 from the free
throw line, but wasnt ready to com-
mend herself on her efforts.
Its not my highest, she said.
Last year in the tournament, I was
12-for-12, so, I could have done
better.
The Jayhawks went into halftime
down 29-24. The deficit could be
attributed to the teams inability to
guard Cindy Keeley, Jessica Aebi and
Sequorhea Stiger, Washburns trio of
guards who scored 19 of the Lady
Blues first-half points.
In the second half, the Jayhawks
fixed that problem by increasing the
minutes of freshman guards Kelly
Kohn and LaChelda Jacobs. Kohn
and Jacobs quickness created five
backcourt steals between the two in
the second half.
One of those came from Jacobs
with 8:37 left in the game, seconds
after the Jayhawks had just taken
their first lead. Jacobs sped down
the floor following the steal for an
uncontested lay-up, making the
score 48-45.
I told her, if you want a shot
then you guard someone and get a
run off of transition, coach Bonnie
Henrickson said.
Jacobs did, and it translated into
the biggest basket of her 10-point
performance. Despite scoring 10
points, Jacobs made only four of her
16 shots from the floor.
We just need to get her to have
a little more discipline in her shot
selection, Henrickson said. She has
some teammates that need the ball.
Kohn scored only seven points,
but had five rebounds that initiated
a 14-1 run in the middle of the sec-
ond half.
The main reason we came back
was our defensive intensity, Kohn
said, Once we got that going, we
felt real comfortable on both sides
of the court.
Kansas offense also improved
dramatically in the second half. After
only shooting 32 percent in the first
half, Kansas rallied and shot 53.6
percent in the second. The team was
0-for-4 from three-point range.
Freshman forward Danielle
McCray established herself as the
sharpest shooter on the young
Kansas team. McCray shot 6-for-10
and finished with 13 points for the
second consecutive game.
Only four of the seven freshmen
played against the Lady Blues, but
they scored 34 of Kansas 68 points.
More importantly, Kohn felt like the
young team learned something on
Sunday.
The real test was just how we
were going to respond to being
down at half, said Kohn, I think we
passed the test.

Kansas volleyball coach Ray
Bechard struggled to eat his bar-
becue dinner after his team lost at
Iowa State Saturday night.
Its been that type of day, I cant
even eat my food, Bechard said. It
seems like the harder you try, the
more you get in your own way.
The Cyclones (17-7, 9-5 Big 12
Conference) swept the Jayhawks
(10-14, 3-12) by scores of 30-18, 30-
22 and 30-23 in Hilton Coliseum.
Bechard said the team had a
great day before the match started
as the team warmed up well and
they put together a good game plan.
But everything fell apart for the
Jayhawks once the match started.
We were fired up for the match,
Megan Hill, senior outside hitter,
said. I think
that, individu-
ally, people didnt
have their best
matches. And,
right now, we are
struggling to play
as a team.
Kansas has now
lost five straight,
while Iowa State
picked up its fifth-
straight victory.
We keep playing teams when
theyre hot, Bechard said. We
changed our routine up and tried
different things, but ultimately teams
have been better in their home envi-
ronment.
Bechard pointed to the sideout
percentage as
the difference
in the match.
Kansas side-
out percentage
was 44 com-
pared to Iowa
States 59 per-
cent.
A sideout
is when the
receiving team
wins the rally
point against the serving team.
The Cyclones also led the
Jayhawks in several other categories
including serving aces (7-1), blocks
(8-3) and hitting efficiency (.344
- .162).
The lone bright spot for the
Jayhawks was freshman setter Katie
Martincich. Martincich had 34
assists on the night and notched her
1,000th assist of the season.
I didnt really think about it, she
said. Its nice to get it, but it would
have been nicer with a win.
Hill led the Kansas offense with
a team-high 11 kills. She also had a
team-high .409 hitting efficiency.
A few weeks ago, the Jayhawks
were still in the hunt to make their
fourth straight NCAA tournament.
But with postseason hopes shot,
staying motivated will be difficult.
We can still have some great
moments and gain some momen-
tum heading into spring, Bechard
said. Weve got to play hard for each
other and the school we represent.
Kansas has just two more oppor-
tunities to get its first conference
road victory this season against
Baylor and Kansas State. The
Jayhawks defeated both teams in
Lawrence earlier in the season.
Kansas will next take on Colorado
(13-9, 9-6) at 7 p.m. Wednesday in
the Horejsi Family Athletics Center.
Admission is free for students with
a valid KUID.

MEGAN HILL
Senior outside hitter
By r.B. FaLLsTroM
associaTeD Press
ST. LOUIS After backing up
pregame braggadocio about deal-
ing out the hits rather than taking
them, Larry Johnson had a lot more
to say.
Johnson rushed for 172 yards,
becoming the second straight run-
ning back to punish the St. Louis
Rams defense in the Kansas City
Chiefs 31-17 victory on Sunday. It
wasnt nearly enough.
Im a little disappointed because
I feel we did leave 200 yards of rush-
ing on that field, Johnson said. The
way we were going out there and
just pushing them backward and
shakings things up, we should have
done even more.
The Chiefs defense forced three
early turnovers against a team that
emphasizes ball security, and Kansas
City capitalized en route to a 17-
point cushion.
You cant put Kansas City in a
short field like that, Rams offensive
tackle Orlando Pace said. It makes
it tough on us and a lot easier on
those guys.
Jared Allen stripped Marc Bulger
on a sack and recovered Steven
Jacksons fumble for the Chiefs, who
have won three in a row for the
first time under new coach Herman
Edwards.
Two touchdown catches by Tony
Gonzalez, who broke Otis Taylors
franchise career mark, helped
Kansas City (5-3) raise its record to
an NFL-best 21-5 in interconference
play since 1995. Damon Huard was
mistake-free again, going 10-for-
15 for 148 yards and three touch-
downs.
Jackson had 219 yards in all for
the Rams (4-4), who have lost three
in a row to negate a fast start under
new coach Scott Linehan. Jackson
had 86 yards on 19 carries with a
1-yard touchdown, and caught a
career-best 13 passes for 133 yards,
but also had one of the Rams three
lost fumbles.
It was the first 100-yard receiving
game by a Rams running back since
Marshall Faulk in 2001.
Johnson had 172 yards on 27
carries, including a 1-yard score for
his fifth touchdown in two weeks;
a 45-yarder when the Chiefs were
backed up in the second quarter;
and a 16-yarder that set up a field
goal. He secured his fifth 100-yard
game of the year and the 18th of
his career before halftime against
a beleaguered Rams defense that
LaDainian Tomlinson gouged for
183 yards last week.
Theres no reason to try to
sugarcoat it, Rams safety Corey
Chavous said. Were doing a good
job, I think, 90 percent of the time
stopping the run. But were giving
up chunks of yardage _ I mean, big
chunks of yardage _ on two or three
plays.
Those two or three plays are the
reason why somebodys rushing for
170 yards rather than 70 or 80 yards
in a game.
The Chiefs lost left guard Brian
Waters, coming off an All-Pro sea-
son, with a leg injury in the first
quarter. Johnson, who said I dont
get hit, I give hits on a conference
call days after getting 155 yards
against the Seahawks, wasnt slowed
down much.
I cant concentrate on who goes
down, Johnson said. If everybody
goes down Ive got to find a way to
get yardage.
The Rams entered the game
among the NFL leaders in turnover
margin at plus-10. Theyre minus-4
the last two games after the three
costly fumbles helped the Chiefs
take a 17-0 lead early in the second
quarter.
Dane Looker, in for his sure
hands with the Chiefs punting from
the St. Louis 45, fumbled a fair catch
in the first quarter. In the second
quarter, Allen ran down Bulger on
a rollout and stripped him, and then
stripped Jackson on a 3-yard gain up
the middle.
Johnsons 1-yard run came six
plays after the first Rams turnover.
The Chiefs made it 14-0 after the
second when a wide-open Gonzalez
snared a 3-yarder.
Four plays after Jackson coughed
up the ball at the St. Louis 33,
Lawrence Tynes 42-yard field goal
made it 17-0 with 10:22 to go in the
first half.
The rest of the way it was a game
of catch-up for the Rams. They
closed to 24-17 on Kevin Curtis
2-yard catch late in the third quarter
before the Chiefs answered with
Huards 11-yard pass to Kris Wilson
with 6:20 to go.
Gonzalez has 59 career TDs
receiving, two more than Taylor for
the franchise record. He needs three
more to catch Shannon Sharpe, who
holds the NFL record for a tight
end.
Bulgers fourth straight 300-yard
passing game was wasted for St.
Louis. He was 31-for-42 for 354
yards with no interceptions.
The game ended on a sour note
for the Rams. Kevin Curtis was
taken to a hospital for observation
after a blow to the ribs from Sammy
Knight on a meaningless 23-yard
catch near the Kansas City sideline.

What was once a
sure-thing loss to Mis-
souri on Thanksgiving
weekend may have
turned into an enter-
taining game, now
that the Jayhawks
have won on the road
and the Tigers have
fallen. Do things look
up for the Jayhawks,
or will it still be a
down day in Colum-
bia?
Finally, after
struggling through
the middle stretch of
the season, the Jay-
hawks fnally have something to
be upbeat about. After building
some momentum, the players
and coaches can look forward to
playing their two biggest rivals
in the next two weeks. Things
are looking up for the Jayhawks.
Daniel C. Weixeldorfer
Despite Kansas
unimpressive his-
tory in conference
road games, Mark
Manginos teamcould leave Co-
lumbia with a victory. Missouri is
missing its best defensive player
(Brian Smith) because of injury
and has looked very beatable
recently. Granted, there is no
sure thing for this Kansas team,
but the unpredictable nature of
the border war could play into
the Jayhawks hands and result
in an upset.
Asher Fusco
Unless the Tigers
are doped up on
tryptophan from
their Thanksgiving
Day turkey dinners, the Jay-
hawks wont be pleased when
they leave Columbia. Though
the Jayhawks have been win-
ning lately and the Tigers have
been losing, Missouri has too
much talent for Kansas to expect
to come away with a victory.
The game will be more exciting
than it seemed it would be three
weeks ago, but it will still end
with a Missouri victory.
Jonathan Kealing
The Jayhawks
have proven they
can play with good
teams throughout
the season, and fnally put
together quality second halves
in the last two weeks. Missouri,
on the other hand, is falling
apart after starting out with six
straight victories, losing three
of their last four. This game will
probably be key in determin-
ing the postseason fate of both
teams, but the Jayhawks recent
success against the Tigers
combined with the momentum
theyve built during the last
couple games will help them
pull out a victory in Columbia.
Kyle Carter
Gary Pinkel
hasnt beaten Mark
Manginos Jay-
hawks since four years ago when
the Jayhawks had their worst
teamof recent memory. Even
then the Missouri players helped
tear down their own goalposts
after defeating the two-win
Jayhawks. With the KU ofense
clicking and the AqibTalib-led
defense coming around, theres
no reason the Jayhawks cant
win this game.

Defense very, very good


By shawn shroyer
AMES, Iowa During the first
nine weeks of the season, the Kansas
defense showed flashes of domi-
nance. However, most of the time,
the Jayhawks looked lost in pass
coverage and inept at getting to the
quarterback.
On Saturday, though, the Jayhawk
defense got its act together, shutting
down the Cyclones unlike any oppo-
nent its faced this season. Kansas
allowed a season-low 213 total yards
of offense.
The defense was very, very good
today, Kansas coach Mark Mangino
said. Played the run very well,
played the pass very well and got
turnovers for our offense.
Iowa State ran the ball 30 times,
yielding just 33 yards. Iowa State
quarterback Bret Meyer passed for
only 180 yards 45 less than his
season average and no touch-
downs to one interception.
Of course, the Kansas pass rush
kept Meyer on the run most of the
afternoon and he certainly wasnt
the only player who turned the ball
over for Iowa State as the Cyclones
managed just 10 points. In addition
to Meyers interception, Iowa State
lost three of five fumbles.
When the pressure was on Kansas
to end Iowa States drives, rarely
did the Jayhawks fail. Iowa State
was 4-for-13 on third down conver-
sions and was unsuccessful on all
three of its fourth down conversion
attempts.
Iowa State was without start-
ing running back Stevie Hicks, so
the key for Kansas was disrupting
the Cyclones passing game. The
Jayhawks did just that, sacking
Meyer six times which doubled
their previous high for sacks in a
game this season with the defen-
sive line leading the attack.
Our D-line played its ass off
today, sophomore linebacker Joe
Mortensen said.
Paul Como, senior defensive end,
said the defense worked on pass rush
tactics this week so it wouldnt have
to rely as heavily on blitzes to create
pressure.
We didnt blitz a lot, but we
blitzed when we needed to and we
kept them guessing, Como said.
Sometimes Meyers legs got him
in trouble and he actually scram-
bled into the waiting arms of Kansas
defenders.
He tried to do a little too much,
but he was just trying to give his
team the best chance to win, Como
said.
Mortensen and Como were just
two of many Jayhawks who harassed
Meyer regularly on Saturday.
Mortensen led Kansas with two
sacks while Como added a sack of
his own and had one of Kansas two
quarterback hits.
Defensive linemen recorded four
of Kansas six sacks and their ability
to control the line of scrimmage and
get to the quarterback was invaluable
to the linebackers and secondary
behind them.
Because Como and his fellow line-
men got into the backfield on their
own, he said it allowed the defense
to drop seven players into coverage,
rather than blitz extra players and
force the secondary to play man
coverage.
As a result, Meyer only completed
about half of his passes and Kansas
sophomore cornerback Aqib Talib
picked off his fifth pass of the sea-
son, moving him into a tie for first
in the Big 12.
The defensive line also preoccu-
pied Iowa States offensive linemen
to free up Kansas linebackers and
secondary to shut down Iowa States
running game. Seven tackles behind
the line helped hold Iowa State to its
second worst rushing performance
of the season.
We were just running around
there, free, Mortensen said. We
could just go straight to the ball.
Saturdays solid defensive perfor-
mance was Kansas second in as
many weeks. More importantly, the
Kansas defense is confident that it
can be a strength for this team,
rather than a weakness.
Weve been trying to get more
pressure and got better the last cou-
ple weeks, Como said. We all came
together and played real well today.

from the press box...
IT wAS OVeR wheN...
With 23 seconds remaining
in the frst half, junior fullback
Brandon McAnderson faked a
half-back pass to quarterback
Kerry Meier and ran into the end
zone himself for the touchdown.
The score put the Jayhawks up
by 24, their largest halftime lead
of the season and an insur-
mountable one for the Cyclones.

GAMe bALL GOeSTO...
The Kansas defensive line had
arguably its best game of the
season. Coach Mark Mangino
has been bemoaning a lack of
quarterback pressure, but that
defnitely wasnt a problemon
Saturday. Iowa State quarter-
back Bret Meyer was sacked six
times and hurried several more.
The Jayhawks front four also
held the Cyclones running backs
to just 33 yards on 30 attempts.
STAT Of The GAMe...
Kansas scored 20 points of
four Iowa State turnovers to
help put the game out of reach.
The Jayhawks forced three
fumbles and cornerback Aqib
Talib also got an interception.
For a defense that struggled to
create turnovers for most of the
season, things fnally seemto be

to only 33 rushing yards on 30 attempts while the Jayhawks had 403 yards on 73 plays. Kansas defeated Iowa State 41-10.

PHILLIPS (contInued from 1B)
And I believe at one point Julian
Wright was throwing the ball
around. Just in case.
Meier got the nod as the starter
and played the majority of the game,
although Reesing was called on
about once a quarter to lead a drive.
Reesing had more luck playing
Wheres Cy? on the video board
than he did guessing when he would
be needed.
I totally didnt know what was
going on, he said. When they told
me to go in, I got ready and went
in.
Attempts to get a glimpse into
Manginos mind were again unsuc-
cessful. After the game he reiterated
his no-talking-about-quarterbacks
stance.
Fromwatching the game and
talking with everyone involved, this
much has become clear: Its Meiers
teamand Meiers job, but because
the Reesings redshirt has been
pulled, hes going to be used occa-
sionally to try to keep himhappy.
The two quarterbacks are also
beginning to see that there wont
be enough playing time to satisfy
both of them, and theyre going to
have to beat out the other player for
the job.
Its the coachs decision, Meier
said. But, yeah, when he gets
thrown in there, it kind of hurts
inside.
Perhaps the most intriguing part
of the whole story is that theyre
both freshmen. If Meier and Reesing
stay healthy, thats three more years
of quarterback battles at Kansas.
Mangino wont say it, but thats
the best possible situation for him.
Hes gone through 11 quarterbacks
in his five years at Kansas, and now
all of a sudden he has two top-
caliber signal callers sitting on his
bench at the same time.
Its going to take a tremendous
coaching job to balance the play-
ing time and the egos but if
Mangino can do it, he may have the
best quarterback situation in the Big
12 for the next few years.
If nothing else, it should make
pregame warm-ups a little more
exciting.
Phillips is a wichita senior in jour-
nalism. he is the Kansan sports
editor.

Amanda Sellers/Kansan
Kansas coach Mark Mangino gets a second straight victory against Iowa State. The Jayhawks
defeated the Cyclones 41-10.
Its the coachs decision, Meier
said. It hurts inside, but you have
to stay positive and keep going.
Reesing said he was never sure
when he would be going back
on the field.
Theyd tell
me before one
series that I was
going in, then
the next series
Id be out, he
said. I didnt
know what was
going on.
That didnt
seem to matter
much, though. Iowa States offense
struggled to move the ball and
when it did, the
Cyclones shot themselves in the
foot with costly turnovers and pen-
alties. By halftime, the Jayhawks
went up 27-3.
Iowa State, who played without
starters at wide receiver and run-
ning back, showed no sign of life on
offense. That
was certainly
good news,
cons i der i ng
the large lead
the defense
coughed up
on Kansas last
road trip to
Baylor.
I felt like
wed score
some points, Mangino said. The
only question was whether our
defense would be able to buckle
down.
Kansas defense certainly ben-
efited with Iowa State being forced
to use backups on offense and it
showed. The Cyclones were held to
just 33 yards rushing on 30 carries
and 213 yards overall. More than
anything, the victory gave Kansas
back the confidence and swag-
ger that it started the season with.
Considering that they finish
off the season against their two
biggest rivals, a little confidence
might be all that was needed.
Well just win on out and every-
thing will be good, Meier joked.
That certainly looks like a pos-
sibility now.

They also tied with Nebraska,
who made the NCAA tournament
last year.
This season the Jayhawks fin-
ished fourth in the Big 12, but they
have more victories this season,
including an early season victo-
ry against then nationally ranked
Duke. Kansas then played incon-
sistently for
the next eight
games, going
3-5, but won at
Nebraska dur-
ing that stretch.
After that peri-
od of poor play,
the Jayhawks
won four games
in a row before
losing their last two.
Also helping Kansas this year is a
harder schedule. Duke, Pepperdine,
Central Florida and California were
on its non-conference slate.
Our strength of schedule is
pretty good and most of our loss-
es have been against good teams,
Francis said. I think were one of
the 64 best teams in the country.
Another aspect that could help
the Jayhawks is the quality of the Big
12. The conference is having one of
its best seasons ever with Texas
A&M, Texas and Oklahoma State
all currently
ranked in the
top 10. Plus,
C o l o r a d o ,
which defeat-
ed Kansas in
its regular
season finale
and tied it in
the first round
of the Big 12
tournament, is all but guaranteed a
spot in the Cup.
The Buffaloes have won six
games in a row and upset the
Aggies in the Big 12 Tournament
Friday. The Texas Longhorns then
beat the Buffaloes Sunday in dou-
ble overtime, making five of six
free kicks.
All four of the Jayhawks losses in
conference play have come against
those teams, making Kansas the
fifth best team in the conference.
Last year, five teams from the Big
12 were selected. Should the selec-
tion committee pick five teams
from the conference this season,
the Jayhawks are sure to get in.
Francis, however, said he still
didnt like his teams chances.
After last year, I dont have a
whole lot of faith with the process,
so I dont want to be disappointed,
he said. But if were in, Ill text
the players and get them ready for
practice.

Bender said she hopes the expe-
rience has changed Giles, but she
has still not seen or heard from
him since his suspension and didnt
anticipate being contacted by him in
the future.
He might, she said. But I also
thought that he would have in the
past year and a half, and he hasnt.
Bender said she has received a
child support payment for October
from Giles, but has not received the
November payment.
She said she was not surprised
Giles was allowed back on the team.
I just knew it would happen,
she said.
Last season Giles started 13
games and averaged 6.2 points and
4.8 rebounds per game. Entering this
season, he was a candidate to start
at center for the Jayhawks. Now, he
will not have the opportunity until
the Winston-Salem State game at
the earliest.

ASSOCIAtED PRESS
LINCOLN, Neb. Zac Taylor
better watch out. Maurice Purify
says hes coming after his job.
It might happen, a smiling Purify
said after Nebraskas 34-20 victory
against Missouri on Saturday. My
QB rating is better than his.
Purify threw a 28-yard TD pass
to Terrence Nunn on his first career
attempt and then caught a scoring
pass from Taylor as the Cornhuskers
bolted to leads of 17-0 and 27-6.
Despite some anxious moments
in the fourth quarter, Nebraska (7-
3, 4-2) beat Missouri (6-3, 3-3) for
the 15th straight time in Lincoln.
The Huskers took sole possession of
first place in the Big 12 North and
can clinch a berth in the conference
championship game with a win over
either Texas A&M next weekend or
Colorado on Nov. 24.
The victory came after two
straight losses, including last weeks
41-29 defeat at Oklahoma State after
the Huskers squandered a 16-0 lead.
Its a big win for our program,
Nebraska coach Bill Callahan said.
Im so happy for our kids. Theyve
worked hard, theyve practiced hard.
I knew we were on the verge of doing
some good things. Unfortunately, we
didnt get that accomplished down
in Stillwater. But we still believe in
these kids and they believe in what
were trying to get across. That was
reflected today on the field.
The Tigers had won six straight
for their best start since 1963 but
now have lost three of their last
four.
If they want to say were the
same old Missouri, let them say it,
quarterback Chase Daniel said. We
know that were a different team, and
we can still have a great season. It
cant all come at once. Sometimes it
comes in baby steps.
Callahan, as hes done from time
to time this season, dabbled in trick-
ery to complement the hard running
of Brandon Jackson. Besides picking
up 111 yards and a touchdown on 32
carries, Jackson caught three screen
passes for 61 yards.
The Huskers ran back-to-back
reverses to score their first touch-
down. Nunn picked up 18 yards on
an end-around before Purify took a
reverse handoff and lofted a perfect
strike to Nunn in the back of the
end zone.
Purify said the Huskers had been
practicing his pass play for three
weeks.
I knew it was coming when we
came out and ran that first reverse,
he said. I felt like I threw it out of
bounds. T. Nunn made a great play,
and it was a better catch than pass.
It was the third time a non-quar-
terback had thrown a touchdown
pass this season.
Holder Jake Wesch threw one to
tight end Hunter Teafatiller on a fake
field goal against Kansas State.
I-back Marlon Lucky threw one
to Nate Swift on a reverse against
Texas.
Then there was Dan Titcheners
first-down pass to Todd Peterson
on a fake punt against Southern
California.
Everybodys trying to take my
job, Taylor said, laughing.
Taylor has no need to worry. He
threw touchdown passes of 7 yards
to Purify and 17 yards to Teafatiller
to run his season total to 20. That
matches the 30-year-old school
record set by Vince Ferragamo.
Taylor was 13-of-21 for 208 yards.
Daniel was 20-for-38 and 244
yards. He now has 2,531 yards in 10
games, breaking the single-season
yardage record set by Jeff Handy in
1992.

In front of a large crimson-and-
blue-painted crowd, the Kansas
swimming and diving team per-
formed to near perfection.
The team dominated Northern
Iowa as Kansas swimmers placed
first, second and third in six of the
first eight events on Friday. The sec-
ond session took place on Saturday,
and was much of the same as Kansas
won the dual 99-49.
Junior Lauren Bonfe recorded
first-place finishes in the 100- and
50-yard backstroke. Bonfe finished
second in the 200-yard backstroke
to senior captain Jenny Short, who
swam a personal best in the event.
As a team, the Jayhawks handled
the Panthers in
impressive fash-
ion.
Home meets
are great, and
since we do not
have many, we
wanted to take
advantage of
it, coach Clark
Campbell said.
We built on the
energy given by
the crowd, and I
think we did a good job of that. Our
pool gives us a home-field advantage
and also gives our girls a chance to
swim in front of their family and
peers.
The two-day meet that took
place at Robinson Center was held
to prepare the Jayhawks for their
remaining schedule. The team will
travel to College Park, Md. on Nov.
16. The Maryland Invite, which will
be held in a similar style as this past
weekends meet, will be an all-day
championship meet.
It was important to get our best
times in the meet as that will seed
us higher for the Maryland Invite,
senior captain Jenny Short said.
Swimming like we did this week
was great for our future and also
for our immediate confidence and
momentum.
The team rebounded against the
Northern Iowa Panthers after los-
ing to Missouri last week in its
opening Big
12 meet. After
succeeding in
the Big 12 last
year, suffering
a loss to a Big
12 rival did not
cause the team
to lose focus.
A t
Missouri, we
were in pretty
good position
and swam well.
They were really prepared, but our
championships are in February, not
against Missouri, Short said. We
are just trying to get better and swim
our best come championship time.
Despite all that, it was important for
us to get a win, especially for our
young girls.
The majority of the 2007 schedule
for the Jayhawks is held at the Big 12
and NCAA Championships.
The team will also swim against
other Big 12 foes such as Nebraska
and Iowa State before the end of the
regular season, however the team
remains focused on peaking later.
Our team has a short memory,
Campbell said. I know how impor-
tant it was to beat Missouri, but as a
team, we were focused on control-
ling ourselves.
