Step into Ruben Medinas stu-

dent housing unit at Stoufer

Place Apartments and its easy
to tell hes not your average
undergraduate. In the living
room, theres a Rock Em Sock
Em robot and puzzle pieces on
the foor and in a bedroom, the
bunk beds he built for his two
young sons.
Medina and his wife, Jeanette,
are both military veterans
studying community health.
Tey chose the University in
part because they could live in
the family housing apartments
on campus. But next sum-
mer, the University will close
Stoufer Place. Like other fam-
ilies in the complex, the Medi-
nas are worried they wont be
able to aford a decent of-cam-
pus apartment when they have
to move.
Currently, the Medinas pay
$550 per month including util-
ities for a two-bedroom apart-
ment. He will graduate in May
but his wife has another year
lef to get her degree.
Its going to be an added
stress to try and navigate our
fnances to aford the types of
availability thats around here,
said Medina, who currently
works part time as a KU re-
search intern.
Te University and Stoufer
Place Neighborhood Associa-
tion are partnering to provide
sessions to residents with in-
formation and advice about
of-campus options. Te frst
session is scheduled for Nov. 7.
Diana Robertson, director
of Student Housing, said Law-
rence has a diverse mix of hous-
ing that should make it possible
for the Medinas and other stu-
dent families to fnd afordable
housing.
We are fortunate that Law-
rence is a community thats well
built with plenty of apartment
options and rental homes,
Robertson said. Im confdent
that there are many places for
the students.
University ofcials an-
nounced in June that the
Stoufer Place complex, which
consists of 25 two-story build-
ings at Iowa and 19th streets,
will be torn down and replaced
by science buildings and a new
apartment complex for single
upperclassmen and graduate
students.
Currently, single students and
families occupy 217 of the one-,
two- and three-bedroom units
at Stoufer Place, which was
completed in 1962. Another 37
apartments are empty, sever-
al due to structural problems,
Robertson said.
Like the University of Kansas,
the University of Missouri has
closed University Village, its
1950s era apartment complex
for graduate and professional
students with families. In mak-
ing the decision, MU ofcials
cited hazardous conditions, ac-
cording to the student newspa-
per, the Maneater. Te Univer-
sity of Missouri has not made a
decision to rebuild the graduate
and family housing.
Kansas State University, how-
ever, has chosen to renovate
older buildings and add more
graduate and family housing.
According to its website, six
buildings at Jardine Apart-
ments, Kansas States graduate
and family housing complex,
were renovated and reopened
between 2006 and 2008. An-
other renovated building was
reopened in 2012, and since
2007, 17 new buildings have
been added to Jardine Apart-
ments.
At the University of Kansas,
more than 120 families still
call Stoufer Place home. Resi-
dent Jarred Steuernagel works
as a shif leader at Pizza Hut
in Leavenworth to support his
family. His wife is a pre-med
major with three years lef to
get her bachelors degree in bi-
ology. Te couple has a young
son.
Steuernagel said he expects to
have to fnd a higher paying job
to support his family next year
as a result of higher rent costs.
Te Steuernagels pay $521
a month for a two-bedroom
walk-through, utilities includ-
ed.
Another issue for some stu-
dents, particularly those from
other countries, is the loss of
community they now feel at
Stoufer Place. Stoufer Place
Apartments has been home to
many international students
and families.

student from China, has one
toddler who she takes to play-
grounds at Stoufer. Zhou and

Financing will be an added stress next year for students like Ruben Medina, a junior from San Antonio, Texas. Stouffer Place, the only family and grad-
uate housing complex owned by the University, ofcially closes in June 2015. Medina says he is worried about the move because he has no idea what
he and his wife can afford based on their current situation.

Speaker at
University
addresses
sexual violence
Melissa Harris-Perry, a talk
show host, professor and
author, spoke at the Univer-
sity Monday night and said
sexual violence should be
discussed in the context of
womens bodies.
Harris-Perry said women
should have control over
their bodies and sexual vio-
lence stems from taking the
control away from women.
She told the audience she
believed the politics behind
controlling womens bodies
comes from the disgust of
womens bodies.
She spoke at the Lied Cen-
ter on Monday night for
the seventh year of the Jana
Mackey lecture series, which
is sponsored by the Emily
Taylor Center for Women
and Gender Equity and fo-
cuses on sexual assault and
domestic violence.
Harris-Perry addressed
racial and class diferences
in sexual violence. She said
race and class can cause
women to be silent about as-
sault, which in itself is a form
of violence against women.
She also discussed ways to
address violence and change
the culture surrounding vio-
lence. Harris-Perry said the
changes that would make the
biggest diferences are sup-
porting policies that spread
information and allow wom-
en to make their own choic-
es on their bodies.
Harris-Perry said policies
that give women reproduc-
tive rights and the power
to make those decisions, as
well as making information
about those topics available,
would empower women and
address issues that can lead
to sexual violence.

Coaches embrace tradition of Allen Fieldhouse
KYLE PAPPAS
@KylePap
BEN LIPOWITZ/KANSAN
Bill Self, Larry Brown, Roy Williams and Ted Owens celebrate Allen Fieldhouses 60th anniversary on Monday.
All four of Kansas basketballs
living coaches gathered inside
Allen Fieldhouse on Monday
night to celebrate the 60th an-
niversary of basketball inside
the Phog. It was the frst time
ever that the four have reunited
publicly.
With 50 of the Phogs last 60
years accounted for in the four
coaches, the progression of col-
lege basketballs most historic
venue had never been more
readily on display.
Most of the years I coached,
it was a dirt foor, and it was ele-
vated above, former coach Ted
Owens said. Te real prob-
lem was, for some reason, they
didnt put the foor in until the
day before we started practice.
Owens said that before the
foor was installed, his players
were forced to hold workouts at
nearby Robinson Gymnasium.
Recruits? Tey were treated
with what Owens described as
a big ol barn during their of-
season visits to Lawrence.
Since Owens tenure at Kansas
concluded in 1983, much has
changed technology has im-
proved, the game has evolved,
and tens of millions of dollars
are annually pumped into col-
lege basketball programs. With
these changes has come a chal-
lenge: fnding a way to main-
tain the unparalleled history
of Allen Fieldhouse while still
equipping it with the moderni-
ty required to woo recruits and
fans alike.
What weve done, and what a
lot of bright minds have done,
is taken a very historic place,
a treasure, and added all the
modern amenities that the new
arenas have across America,
current coach Bill Self said.
Kansas newly renovated
locker room and the pending
completion of the DeBruce
Center are two prime exam-
ples of these modern addi-
tions. Te Jayhawks new-look
locker room puts some NBA
prepping areas to shame Self
says its impressive to anyone
that is able to step inside the
halls and take a tour of it. Te
32,000-square-foot DeBruce
will be an $18 million extension
to the feldhouse and is set to be
completed in 2015.
Yes, the renovations and addi-
tions have been plentiful as of
late, but Self is still committed
to keeping the integrity of the
way the building was originally
meant to be built. While oth-
er programs have abandoned
their old facilities in favor
of newer, more aesthetically
pleasing ones, Kansas has em-
braced its home, its tradition,
and its story.
Sixty years in one building
and everybodys in an arms
race in college athletics trying
to plow one feld and put one
up before the next one gets up
beside it, former coach Roy
Williams said.
Te Phog has come a long way
from the big ol barn that Ow-
ens spoke of, but the tradition
and history that has graced the
building since 1955 hasnt gone
anywhere. While some things
have undeniably changed,
more has stayed the same.
To see whats been done to
it since I lef, you know, Ive
been fortunate enough, Bill
[Self]s kept me in the loop and
brought me back numerous
times, said former coach Larry
Brown. But you know, the fact
that afer all these years noth-
ings really changed its all
about the basketball court and
the people that are in it.
Master of Ceremonies Jay
Bilas might have said it best
though, when he declared,
Allen Fieldhouse is the St.
Andrews of basketball. Tis
magnifcent building cannot be
captured in words, you have to
feel it. Tis building has a soul.
Time will pass, things will
change, technology will contin-
ue to get better its inevitable.
But its clear that soul in the
Phog isnt going anywhere any-
time soon.

Marketing students
adjust to new
professors
Students enrolled in Rich Del-
aneys Marketing 310 and 311
classes received new instructors
on Oct. 16, because Delaney is no
longer employed by the School of
Business.
Students in his classes were
given evaluation forms the week
of Oct. 7 and were subsequently
re-assigned, with lecturer Jana
Fitchett teaching 310 and as-
sociate professor Aaron Clopton
teaching 311.
Austin Falley, communications
director for the School of Busi-
ness, conrmed that Delaney is no
longer employed by the University,
but personnel matters are consid-
ered condential and no further
information regarding the deci-
sion has been made public.
Delaney said the decision to re-
place him was quick and ques-
tionable. He has not yet received
his separation papers from the
School of Business, and is waiting
until then to comment further.
The University lled Delaneys
position from within the School of
Business. Fitchett has been with
the University since 2006 and
Clopton since 2011. Both have
consulted with Delaneys former
teaching assistants and received
feedback from students. Hal
McCoy III, a teaching assistant
for the 310 class, said he and
Fitchett worked together to create
a new syllabus that students will
receive Tuesday.

Ferguson panel draws
full house in Lawrence
JAMES LAMB
@thejameslamb
It was a full house Monday
night inside the auditorium
of the Lawrence Public Li-
brary, where an expert panel
discussed the recent events in
Ferguson, Mo.
Hosted by the Universitys
College of Liberal Arts &
Sciences, the panel included
Clarence Lang, an associate
professor of African and Af-
rican-American Studies and
American Studies at the Uni-
versity, Brendan Roediger,
an assistant professor of law
from St. Louis University and
Jamala Rogers, a columnist
for the St. Louis American
and an editorial board mem-
ber for both TeBlackCom-
mentator.com and Te Black
Scholar.
Te free event drew a di-
verse audience of about 150
people, many of whom stood
due to limited seating. Many
in the audience came to ask
questions and participate in
discussions on the recent pro-
tests.
Te situations historical
background, the impact of the
Dred Scott decision of 1857
and the misinformation sur-
rounding Ferguson in the me-
dia were all discussed at the
event. Te speakers expressed
how encouraged they were
over the wide response to the
shooting of Michael Brown.
Its been 80 days since Mike
Brown was murdered, and
when we say the events of Fer-
guson, what we really mean is
a movement that has kept his
memory alive, said Roediger.
Were not talking about this
tonight because a QT burned
down. Were talking about
this 80 days later because of
young people who are doing
something diferent, theyre
doing something incredible.
Jamala Rogers said much of
her encouragement stemmed
from not just the age diversity
of those participating in the
Ferguson protests, but the ra-
cial diversity as well.
For St. Louis thats huge,
because [St. Louis has] been
a segregated city for so long,
Rogers said. But some of us
have been doing that work
for a long time, developing
white allies who understand
racism.
In response to a question
regarding white people who
may feel obliged to defend
police, Rogers was blunt.
One of the things that
[comes up] in conversations
that I have with white people
about the role of police is how
its diferent in [their] com-
munity, [and so they] cant
comprehend this, Rogers
said. In [their] community,
they are protecting and serv-
ing. Tats not the role that
they play in our community.
Believe me when I tell you
what my experience is with
police. Its not going to be the
same as yours.
Te panel also touched on
issues including the grand
jury investigating the shoot-
ing, segregated education in
St. Louis and issues relating
to the overzealous issuing of
warrants. Lang also pointed
out the importance of pro-
testers continuing to fght for
change.
We cant end without con-
sideration of whats occurring
but also of how people are
fghting, and how people have
fought, said Lang. My view
is that as long as theres a fght,
theres a possibility for a vic-
tory. You might not win, but
at least with a fght, theres an
opportunity to determine the
terms of surrender.

US governors, Army go
own way on Ebola
quarantines
NEWARK, N.J. The feder-
al Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention on Monday rec-
ommended new restrictions for
people at highest risk for coming
down with the Ebola virus and
symptom monitoring for those
at lower risk, but some state
governors and even the Army are
carving their own paths.
As contradictory state policies
proliferate in response to Ebola
fears, the CDCs recommenda-
tions mark an effort to create
a national standard, one that
would protect public health
without discouraging people
from helping ght its spread
overseas.
The CDC now says even if peo-
ple have no symptoms and are
not considered contagious they
should stay away from com-
mercial transportation or public
gatherings if they have been in
direct contact with the bodi-
ly uids of someone sick with
Ebola say, by touching their
uids without protective gear
or by suffering an injury from a
contaminated needle.
Absent that direct contact,
simply caring for Ebola pa-
tients or traveling in West Afri-
ca doesnt warrant quarantine
conditions, the public health
agency said.
But quarantines are deter-
mined state by state in the U.S.,
and the CDC is empowered only
to issue guidelines. And even
within the federal government,
authorities were improvising
Monday: A U.S. Army command-
er in Italy said he and his troops
returning from Liberia would
remain in isolation for 21 days,
even though he feels they face
no risk and show no symptoms.
The Armys chief of staff, Gen.
Ray Odierno, directed the 21-
day controlled monitoring pe-
riod for all redeploying soldiers
returning from the Ebola ght
in West Africa, an Army spokes-
woman said.

OVERLAND PARK, Kan.
Former Republican pres-
idential nominee Mitt Rom-
ney campaigned Monday in
Kansas with U.S. Sen. Pat
Roberts, an effort to bolster
the three-term incumbents
message that GOP voters
must re-elect him to thwart
the agenda of Democratic
President Barack Obama.
Romney, who lost to Obama
when the president won
re-election in 2012, appeared
with Roberts and other top
Kansas Republicans for a
rally at an upscale suburban
Kansas City-area restaurant
and bowling emporium. In-
troducing Romney was Kan-
sas political icon Bob Dole,
a former U.S. Senate major-
ity leader and the 1996 GOP
presidential nominee.
Roberts, 78, is in a tight
race with independent
candidate Greg Orman, a
45-year-old businessman and
co-founder of a private equi-
ty firm. Republicans need
six seats to regain a Senate
majority during Obamas
final two years in office,
and theyve always counted
on Roberts winning in his
GOP-leaning state.
Orman is running as a cen-
trist, promising to caucus
with whichever party wins a
clear majority in the Senate
or to play kingmaker if nei-
ther does. Roberts and his
fellow Republicans portray
Orman as a liberal Democrat
in disguise as they try to keep
disaffected GOP and unaffil-
iated voters in the senators
camp.
Both Romney and Roberts
spent much of their remarks
criticizing Obama on domes-
tic and foreign policy issues.
Obama received only 38 per-
cent of the vote in Kansas
in winning re-election two
years ago.
It is essential that we elect
Pat Roberts again to the U.S.
Senate, Romney said. A vote
for Greg Orman is a vote for
Barack Obama, and America
should not make that mis-
take three times.
Romneys appearance was
in Johnson County, the states
most populous county and
home to 22 percent of its 1.74
million registered voters. Its
normally a GOP stronghold
both Romney and Dole
carried it with 58 percent of
the vote in their presidential
runs but Orman is from
Olathe, and with his business
profile, he expects do well
there.
Orman visited an Olathe re-
tirement community before
meeting with volunteers at a
phone bank in Shawnee.
Roberts has been dogged
by questions about owning
a Washington-area home
while listing rented space in
the home of two Dodge City
supporters as his official res-
idence and, in recent weeks,
about missing most of the
meetings of several commit-
tees on which he serves.
No matter how many na-
tional politicians Senator
Roberts brings to Kansas,
Kansans know that Wash-
ington is broken and Senator
Roberts is part of the prob-
lem there, Orman campaign
manager Jim Jonas said.
Peggy Hamtill, a 74-year-
old Leawood retiree who
came to the Romney event,
said regaining a GOP majori-
ty is crucial to her and called
Orman a stealth candidate.
Its important to me that
we be able to have a voice,
she said.

What do you think
about early Christmas
promotion?
@VanessaAsmussen
@KansanOpinion Christmas
is the most wonderful time of
the year. I say, the earlier the
better!
Going the extra mile necessary for art grads to succeed
A
cloud of doubt
and doom
persistently
hovers above the heads of
many art majors hoping
to find a decent paying
job post-graduation.
The most common of
all collegiate questions,
Whats your major?
usually precedes a slew of
other inquiries when one
identifies as an artist.
The economic
downturn of the past
five years has left many
artists wondering
whether they will find
jobs after college. Art
careers require a serious
time commitment while
receiving uncertain pay
and questionable job
security. No matter how
much an artist enjoys
creating beautiful and
engaging projects, he or
she must find a way to
make a living with what
they do.
A recent study
conducted by the
Strategic National
Arts Alumni Project
at Indiana University
suggests that graduates
in the arts are now more
likely to find a steady
income, as well as job
satisfaction in their
careers. The survey of
approximately 100,000
art graduates found that
some 65 percent of recent
graduates were able to
find work in art-related
fields and 52 percent
were satisfied with their
income. It also found
that 75 percent of people
who graduated with an
arts degree in the past
five years maintained a
high level of satisfaction
with their jobs. The study
seems to suggest that
pursuing a fulfilling job,
not just a lucrative one,
still offers opportunities.
While these numbers
may be reassuring for
the creative minds
walking the halls of the
Art & Design building,
students should keep in
mind that their success
in such an unpredictable
field depends on the
tools they acquire during
college. Universities
must consistently
enhance their ability
to push talented artists
through their doors with
a focus on professional
careers. Artists who
apply the creativity and
ambition they learn in
class to a life outside
of the University will
prosper financially and
emotionally.

@KansanOpinion My birthdays
at the end of November. My
opinion is that any Christmas
promotion before that is too
early.
By Jake Kaufmann
@JakeKaufmannUDK
Christmas promotion arrives too early in season
T
o begin, I am
not a Grinch.
Ebenezer Scrooge
is not my role model. My
birthday is on Christmas,
and Im one of the most
festive people around.
With that being said, our
obsession with Christmas
needs to stop.
Each year, it feels
like the Christmas
spirit comes sooner
and sooner. At the
beginning of this month
I saw a Christmas movie
marathon advertised on
TV. A few days later, I
saw snowflake shaped
Cheeze-Its making their
annual grocery store
debut. It all seemed about
two months too soon,
especially since there
are two major holidays
between now and
Christmas.
Halloween and
Thanksgiving are getting
mowed over. At the
beginning of October,
people seem more
excited about the return
of the pumpkin spice
latt than the actual
return of Halloween.
Likewise, Thanksgiving
is or used to be
the jumping-off point
for Christmas radio
stations and holiday ads.
According to Forbes, 49
percent of companies
in 2013 planned on
launching a Christmas
marketing campaign
before Halloween. If not
then, Nov. 15 is the most
popular day to begin
holiday advertising. This
seems a bit too hasty, like
giving a 7-year-old a car
in anticipation for his or
her 16th birthday.
Putting Christmas tree
ornaments on shelves
and promoting Christmas
movie marathons during
early fall will not make
time pass any faster.
Soon, Christmas in July
wont be a joke it will
be reality.
There is a time for
everything, and now its
time for Halloween. In
a few weeks it will be
time for Thanksgiving
and eventually, it will
be time for Christmas.
Until then, remember the
immortal words of Yoda:
Patience you must have,
my young padawan.

HOROSCOPES
Because the stars
know things we dont.
PAGE 5
Aries (March 21 - April 19)
Youll get into a passionate
discussion with somebody sexy
this week, and sparks will y.
You wont be sure if you hate
this person or love him or her.
Mercury is creating some confu-
sion. Take some time to sort out
your true feelings.
Taurus (April 20 - May 20)
This is a good week to work on
improving your relationship. If
youve been in a rocky one, dont
give up just yet. Work with a
therapist or other third party to
get an outside perspective. The
sun hints that theres something
youre not seeing clearly.
Gemini (May 21 - June 21)
A wild, crazy feeling is in the
air. Youll want to dance naked
by moonlight or chant strange,
primal sounds to the stars. Or,
you could just make passionate
love to your honey. The moon
says anything goes, and its up
to you to decide how you want to
proceed.
Cancer (June 22 - July 22)
Youre in a mellow mood, thanks
to the moon. Even if your partner
is stressed out about something,
youll be able to remain calm
and centered. Share that calm
vibe with others who could use
an encouraging word or two.
Leo (July 23 - Aug. 22)
Dont let yourself get too grumpy
this week, even though youll
probably want to sit and sulk
about stuff. A moon opposition
is reminding you of all the
things that are upsetting in your
personal life. You need to nd a
pleasant distraction.
Virgo (Aug. 23 - Sept. 22)
Youre experiencing more stabili-
ty than you have in a while. Your
romantic situation isnt as crazy,
and you feel better about your
current professional path, too.
Mars will continue to help you
over the next few weeks.
Libra (Sept. 23 - Oct. 23)
You and your honey could clash
over money matters. The moon
is reminding you that both of
you need to be on the same page
about nances. If one of you is
paying all the bills, things are
getting out of balance and this
needs to change.
Scorpio (Oct. 24 - Nov. 21)
Pay attention to your intuition.
Venus is increasing that natural
psychic ability of yours. Maybe
youll sense that someone in
your circle is interested in you,
even if this person is acting shy.
It could be time to take action.
Start irting.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22 - Dec. 21)
You might have a premonition
about what you really want to
be when you grow up. Jupiter
is bringing you a sense of what
your ideal future can be.
You could realize something
important about life and love.
Pay attention to these moments
of insight as they strike.
Capricorn (Dec. 22 - Jan.19)
You and your honey will enjoy
spending time together as the
moon creates a feeling of
light-hearted fun. Take a day
trip together or go out to dinner
at a new place. Do something
different and put yourself in a
fresh setting.
Aquarius (Jan. 20 - Feb. 18)
As an Air sign, you have a way
with words. But sometimes
people dont appreciate your
playful sense of humor. Your
honey could be dealing with
something stressful during this
Saturn transit and might not be
in a joking mood.
Pisces (Feb. 19 - March 20)
You could reconnect with
someone you used to date as
the moon creates some strange
encounters. Youre probably over
this person by now, but it might
be useful to talk to him or her
again. You could realize some-
thing important about yourself
in the process.
Rock Climbing Club competes in Arkansas
Some college students play
football or soccer or go on a
run to stay in shape. Others
climb 1,000-foot rock faces.
Last month, from Sept. 24-
28, several members of the
Rock Climbing Club attended
an event called 24 Hours of
Horseshoe Hell at Horseshoe
Canyon Ranch in Jasper,
Ark. Te event ofered two
competitions to participate in:
a 12-hour and 24-hour long
competition. Te goal for
both categories was to climb
as many routes as possible in
the allotted time.
Mitchell Friedeman,
current president of KU Rock
Climbing and a senior from
Olathe, took part in the 12-
hour advanced competition
with his climbing partner,
Ryan Holcomb, a frst-year
graduate student from Bonner
Springs. Climbing as many
routes as they could, the two
climbed for 12 straight hours.
Friedeman and Holcomb
were just two of nine recent
graduates and fve current
students who represented the
club at the competition.
It tests you for sure, both
mentally and physically,
Friedeman said. About six
hours in we started to snap
at each other and wearing
down, but overall we pulled it
together, and we make a great
team.
Friedeman and Holcomb
ended up placing frst in their
category.
It felt awesome ... we
werent necessarily expecting
it, but it turns out KU in
general swept the 12-hour
podium, Friedeman said.
In addition to the club
sweeping the 12-hour
podium, Friedeman said past
club presidents Ryan Surface,
a 2012 alumni from Kansas
City, and Brian Lesage, a 2013
alumni from Leawood, were
in the elite 24-hour category
and secured second place.
Tey beat out professional
teams to get second,
Friedeman said. It was mind
blowing, truly.
Friedeman has been looking
to improve on the already
popular club this year.
Friedeman said he hopes to
take more trips to gyms in
Kansas City during the winter,
and that hes been working
with local businesses to set
up more club nights where
the club watches movies, look
at gear and get discounts for
the club. He said theyre also
looking forward to teaching
new climbers, many of whom
are incoming freshmen.
We have all these excited
individuals who are just so
stoked about climbing, that
theyre down to teaching the
new people what they need to
know, Friedeman said.
Desirrae Zachgo, a freshman
from Wakefeld and a new
member of the club, said shes
looking forward to going on
more of the climbing trips
later this year.
I like the thrill of trying to
not fall, Zachgo said.
Friedemans interest in rock
climbing began when he was
a child.
Id see these huge rocks,
and think they were so cool,
but I had no outlet, so I was
just looking at it, he said.
Friedeman said he began
actually climbing a month
before he came to the
University, and afer inquiring
about the club on his frst day
at the rock wall, it took of
from there.
Now [that] Ive found rock
climbing, I have an outlet
to go experience nature in a
whole new way that I never
had before, Friedeman said.
Its pretty sweet.
Friedeman said for most
people, conquering fear is the
biggest issue when faced with
rock climbing.
Once you get over the fear,
the physical ability comes,
cause a lot of the time its your
head thats holding you back,
he said.
For Zachgo, the hardest
part of rock climbing is the
strength required to climb.
Afer having shoulder surgery
this past summer, Zachgo has
had to build up her strength
in order to climb. Friedeman
said new climbers sometimes
become focused on the
numbers around it, like how
hard someone is climbing, or
the difculty of their route.
We like to say in the club:
Te best climber is the one
thats having the most fun, he
said. Its kind of like a bunch
of hippy athletes who just love
having fun and spending time
outside.
For now, Friedeman and
the club are looking forward
to future trips, like the yearly
trip to the Red Rocks in
Nevada, as well as welcoming
new climbers and teaching
them the various methods for
rock climbing.
Its an amazing thing we
have here at KU, Friedeman
said, Te great thing is youll
meet a lot of really genuine
and awesome people, and its a
great thing that has defnitely
transformed my time at KU.

University holds rst Spanish lm festival
Vamos! Spanish Language
Film Festival is the first
festival of its kind to be
held at the University. The
festival is showing a series of
four different films in hopes
of starting a new tradition
of Spanish film festivals.
Margaret Jamieson, one of
the organizers of Vamos!,
hopes with the success of
this festival, it will be the
first of many.
The University of Kansas
has an incredible wealth
of language programs, and
people that I met early on
here at KU really pointed out
to me what a unique thing
it is in Kansas, or in the
Midwest really, that there
are so many languages,
Jamieson said.
Jamieson, who moved to
Lawrence from the Bay Area
a year ago, is a lecturer in
Film and Media Studies at
the University and a large
contributor to the festival,
which began Oct. 15 and
runs through Nov. 14. The
festival celebrates the film
cultures of Chile, Mexico,
Costa Rica, Brazil and Spain.
With Jamiesons Hispanic
background, she has always
been interested in the
Spanish language and culture
and how it can be found
in all different places. The
festival is halfway through
its series of four screenings.
The next film, El regreso,
(The Return) will screen
Wednesday at 6:30 p.m.
in room 100 of Oldfather
Studios. The final screening,
Xingu, will be in the
auditorium of the Spencer
Museum Nov. 5 at 5:30 p.m.
All the screenings are open
to the public. Jamieson
said the last two showings
contained a mix of people,
from faculty and students to
community members.
Jamieson said the films in
the festival may never have
the chance to be distributed
through the United States,
so festivals such as Vamos!
make it possible to bring
these different cultures to
the U.S.
Some of the films are
a little bit challenging,
Jamieson said. Some of
these films you have maybe
seen at a film festival in New
York or in California but
some not even that, you have
to find really specific film
festivals to view these films.
Jamieson said many
departments and
organizations were involved
in the contributions that
have made Vamos! possible.
It was also funded in part
with a grant from PRAGDA,
a New York-based
distribution company of
Spanish and Latin American
films.
Having previously known
about PRAGDA, Jamieson
and her team decided to
apply for the grant. This
led to her working with the
Center for Latin American
and Caribbean Studies, as
well as a couple people from
international programs
such as international and
interdisciplinary studies at
the University.
Jamieson said aside from
the help of PRAGDA,
EGARC (Ermal Garinger
Academic Resource Center)
was the festivals largest
financial supporter, and
it made a commitment to
purchase the films and make
them available through the
Universitys library. EGARC
is an academic unit within
the Humanities division of
the College of Liberal Arts &
Sciences.
Being fairly new at the
University, Jamieson said
it was very pleasing to be
able to successfully pull this
festival off.
Whats been really exciting
to me as a new person here
at KU is being able to work
with all these different
groups: the Center for Latin
American and Caribbean
Studies, graduate students,
EGARC, the anthropology
department and global
and international studies,
Jamieson said. Its just this
fantastic group of people, I
cant say enough about how
all of these groups helped
us.
Jamieson said graduate
students from the Center
for Latin American and
Caribbean Studies and from
the Department of Spanish
and Portuguese helped select
the film for the final Vamos!
screening. Since the business
school is having its Brazilian
festival the same night, they
decided to combine the two
events to avoid splitting the
audience.
Graduate student of film
and media studies, Stephanie
Wille from Lawrence, said
the festival has been really
exciting for her.
I love seeing culture and
film being brought together,
she said. It really shows how
expansive the film industry
is becoming.
Jamieson said the
motivation for the festival
does not stem from anything
specific going on in Latin
American cinema currently,
but rather comes from
issues about nationality and
immigration that affect us
all, and the directors of these
films are working with that.

Ten years ago if you were
to ask to someone what
a troll was, the common
response might be, oh you
mean the thing that lives
under the bridge?. Today
the term trolling is Internet
terminology that is used to
describe someone who is
deliberately provoking or
upsetting other users on the
Internet by posting mean
(degrading, racial, religious,
etc.) comments or starting
arguments, usually with
random strangers, on online
discussion boards.
In a recent research study
conducted by YouGov.com,
over 28 percent of Americans
admit to being intentionally
mean toward someone they
didnt know on the Internet,
according to a survey of
1,125 adults.
According to the study,
23 percent of those who
have ever posted content
admit to having maliciously
argued over an opinion with
a stranger and 23 percent
have maliciously argued over
facts.
Trolling is ofen seen on
sites such as Facebook,
Twitter, Reddit and Yik Yak
but are not limited to just
these sites. Trolling happens
everywhere but according to
the study, the main age group
of trollers range from 18-34,
with male users reporting
higher rates of trolling than
females.
Anonymous posting apps
have become easy platforms
for trolling because it allows
users to stay anonymous and
receive no reprimand for
their actions. According to
the study (by YouGov.com),
77 percent of the people
surveyed would be more
likely to engage in trolling
activities if they were able to
remain anonymous.
Te question now arises
whether or not trolling
should be considered cyber
bullying.
Taylor Crane, a sophomore
from Overland Park, thinks
it should be.
Trolling is something that
happens all the time now,
Crane said. You cant look
at any video on YouTube
without seeing a negative
comment about someone.
Same with playing online
games. Some people dont
even know what trolling is
but I consider it a form of
bullying. Sometimes people
take it way too far.

Theyre making really
innovative, expansive work,
which still expands many of
the Hollywood traditions,
Jamieson said.
Although Vamos! hasnt
been a tradition at Kansas,
film festivals in general are
routinely held by the Center
for Global and International
Studies.
Its just really the
multitude of groups and
departments of people who
want to be able to present
these films and discuss them
that allowed all of this to
come together, Jamieson
said.
The Films:
Tambin la lluvia (Even
the Rain) was shown on
Oct. 15 as the opening film
of the festival.
Viewers were able to watch
this film about exploration
in South America while
eating homemade tamales
cooked by a local Mexican
chef.
La muerte de Pinochet
(The Death of Pinochet)
explores Chilean history.
It was followed by a Q&A
with the films director,
Ivan Osnovikoff. This
documentary, screened Oct.
20, is a very challenging
film, Jamieson said.
Its a really interesting
film but it does not hold
your hand, if you dont know
Chilean history, you dont
know who Pinochet was,
it doesnt really baby you
along, Jamieson said.
This film is based on a true
story about the exploration
of Brazil in 1943. A
discussion with professor
of Spanish and Portuguese,
Luciano Tosta, will follow
the film.

Museum unveils exhibit showing
rich story of Jewish life in Poland
ASSOCIATED PRESS
WARSAW, Poland In
the two millennia between
ancient Israel and its modern
rebirth, Jews never enjoyed
as much political autonomy
as they did in Poland, a land
that centuries later would
become intrinsically linked
to the Holocaust.
Te story of this great
fourishing of political
and cultural life is part
of a 1,000-year history
told in a visually striking
new museum, the POLIN
Museum of the History of
Polish Jews, which opens its
long-awaited core exhibition
to the public Tuesday amid
days of celebrations.
Te Polish and Israeli
presidents will attend,
along with Polish Holocaust
survivors who helped create
this memorial to the lost
world of their ancestors
Polin is Hebrew for Poland,
and also means rest here,
a reference to a story Jews
told themselves about their
arrival in Poland in the
Middle Ages: that they found
favor from the rulers and
were allowed to dwell there
in tranquility. Te result was
centuries of a fourishing
Y i d d i s h - s p e a k i n g
civilization that made
important contributions to
Polish and world culture
before being nearly wiped
out by Nazi Germany.
Te Holocaust has
cast a shadow onto this
great civilization and the
generations of Jews who lived
in Eastern Europe before
the Second World War, as if
those centuries of life were
little more than a preface
to the Holocaust, Museum
Director Dariusz Stola said.
But that is absurd. Tis
museum stresses that 1,000
years of Jewish life are not
less worthy of remembrance
than the six years of the
Holocaust.
Poland, in a union
formed in the 16th century
with Lithuania called the
Commonwealth, became one
of Europes largest and most
ethnically diverse territories.
Jews benefted from
tolerance and a large degree
of self-governance granted
by the rulers, growing into
the worlds largest Jewish
community. Today 9 million
of the worlds 14 million
Jews can trace their ancestry
to Poland.

W
hether you agree
to place him in
the top strato-
sphere of major league ace
pitchers or not, James Shields
was the Royals best pitcher
for the past two seasons.
Shields pitched his last
game under the contract
the Tampa Bay Rays gave
him in 2008, and now the
Royals will decide whether
to extend his contract or ex-
plore his options in the more
lucrative free agent world.
If Shields were to command
more than three years, the
most prudent thing would
be to let him walk away and
venture of to another team.
Te Royals model has al-
ways been discount spending
trying to get below market
value for its free agents. Sign-
ing Shields to a 5-year, $125
million contract would prove
an exception to that model.
Shields has accumulated
eight straight seasons of
200 innings and will turn
33 years old in December.
Te track record of pitch-
ers coming of this type of
workload doesnt bode well if
the Royals do stick with him.
C.C. Sabathia and Justin
Verlander are two prime
examples of that.
If they were scant in their
farm system, keeping Shields
on might make some sense.
However, highly touted
pitcher Kyle Zimmer, on
paper, is everything you want
in a frontline starter. Royals
also have two
other prospects
in the top 100
in Sean Man-
nea and Miguel
Almonte.
Te Royals
can either
chase another
pitcher in free
agency or rely
on 21-year-
old Brandon
Finnegan to be
a quality back-
end starter. Tis gives the
Royals several options and
ofers a chance to gain expe-
rience as a starting pitcher.
Just a few years ago, trust-
ing pitching prospects was
seen as a sin by Royals fans
because, with the exception
of Zack Greinke, there was
no precedent to be found
of the Royals developing
pitchers. Each one that came
up fzzled out. Yordano
Ventura and Danny Dufy
are two examples of pitchers
who outperformed expecta-
tions in both of their frst full
seasons as regular starters in
the MLB.
Te last aspect is that
Shields wouldnt ft in the
realm of the Royals salary
cap. While this fantasy-world
Royals run might compel
them to expand their budget,
there are several other holes
that need to be flled besides
its starting pitching. In the
event of Nori Aokis depar-
ture, Kansas City will have to
add another outfelder. Te
team also may lose designat-
ed hitter Billy Butler.
Shields did more than what
was asked of him in his time
as a Royal, but instead of
paying for past performance,
the right thing to do is to
part with him.

make it difcult for interested community members to attend and therefore
severely afect the program, depriving the topic, the speakers, and the public

IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT: program cancellation
T
he 2014 Kansas
City Royals season
has come down to
Game 6 of the World Series at
Kaufman Stadium. Regard-
less of what happens Tuesday,
starting pitcher James Shields
season is over.
Shields pitched well Sunday
in his 2014 fnale, a 5-0
loss to Giants ace Madison
Bumgarner. Shields gave up
two runs on eight hits, with
four strikeouts in six innings
pitched. Tough it was a loss,
it was a strong performance
to end what has been a shaky
fve postseason starts. With an
ERA of 6.12, Shields playofs
havent been the best. Hes
pitched 25 innings, giving up
17 runs on 36 hits.
With his contract ending
afer the season, management
has to decide if Kansas City
should spend the money to
re-sign Shields.
When he was brought to
Kansas City in December of
2012, his job was not only
to be the Royals ace, but to
change the overall mantra of
the clubhouse. In 2012, the
clubhouse was flled with an
exuberant amount of young
talent. Te lone veterans on
the team were designated
hitter Billy Butler and lef
felder Alex Gordon, who had
zero postseason experience in
their careers.
Shields job was to take the
Royals to the postseason for
the frst time since 1985 with
his pitching, leadership and
experience. In 2013, the team
fell short of the playofs by six
games. Te 2014 team exceed-
ed expectations, clinching a
playof spot and sweeping its
way to the World Series.
Shields numbers have been
dropping since hes arrived in
Kansas City, but Royals fans
shouldnt forget, hes one of
the biggest reasons why they
have a chance to win their frst
World Series in 29 years.
It doesnt matter if the Giants
win Game 6
on Tuesday,
because the
glory days of
Royals greats
George Brett
and Bret
Saberhagen
have been
recreated in
one postsea-
son run.
If youre
a Royals
fan, and
you want to thank one player
on this team, thank James
Shields. Sure, hes not nearly
as dominant as he once was.
Sure, hes had a poor postsea-
son. Hes probably had the
worst playofs of the Royals
four starting pitchers.
Tat being said, thank him
for teaching one big talent
pool how to win. His con-
fdence throughout his two
years in Kansas City rubbed
onto the young guns of the
Royals, which is why they sit
two games away from a World
Series Championship.
Regardless of what happens
in the rest of the World Series,
and how much money hell
ask for next year, Kansas City
should re-sign James Shields.

the top spot in the East. Now,
two losses later, the team sits
at No. 5.
It went 2-2-7 against the East-
ern Conference playof teams
this year, with neither of those
wins coming against New York
or D.C. United, who Kansas
City will have to defeat to
make the Eastern Conference
fnal. Sporting KC has been
outscored 18-9 when facing
those playof teams. Tese
second-rate results which set
Kansas City as massive under-
dogs for Tursdays game in
New York.
If the team wants to make a
run or even advance into
the conference semifnal its
going to need as much rest
and regeneration as four days
can give a team. Its going to
need Juliao at lef-back, Gruen-
ebaum between the pipes
and Feilhaber controlling the
midfeld. Its going to take a
complete game from all facets
of this depleted Kansas City
team to advance to the next
round.
Te locker room believes it
can do it, and if the team is in
better shape, theres reason to
think the defending champions
can pull of an upset.
We are in the playofs, mid-
felder Paulo Nagamura said.
Its a whole new tournament
right now. We still believe we
have enough to go all the way.
Te good thing is we are in the

Giants, Royals ready for
wild World Series nish
ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN FRANCISCO Mad-
ison Bumgarner barely broke
a smile walking around the
San Francisco Giants club-
house late Sunday night fol-
lowing a brilliant pitching
performance that has his
team one win from another
World Series title.
Afer the way this Octo-
ber has played out, who can
blame him?
Te Giants will try to close
out the Royals and claim
their third championship
in fve years Tuesday night
when this wild-card series
shifs back to baseballs most
unlikely postseason destina-
tion: Kansas City.
We know its not over un-
til you get that fourth game.
Tese guys arent going to
change, said Giants manag-
er Bruce Bochy, whose club
leads the best-of-seven series
3-2.
Perhaps its only ftting this
Fall Classic ends at Kauf-
man Stadium, a place host-
ing playof baseball for the
frst time in 29 years. Te
Royals started this pulsating
postseason with a 9-8 come-
back win in 12 innings over
Oakland in the AL wild-card
game, which began on the
last day of September and
ended near midnight.
Tat captivating night in
Kansas City set the stage for
a month to remember: tight
games and dramatic fnish-
es, favorites falling and un-
derdogs overachieving, stars
slipping and new ones shin-
ing.
What happens next is
anybodys guess. Afer all,
the last time Game 6 of the
Fall Classic came to Kansas
City, one of the most surre-
al scenes in baseball history
unfolded: frst base umpire
Don Denkingers botched
call serving as the signature
moment of the 1985 World
Series won by the Royals
over St. Louis.
We know we can do it,
Royals frst baseman Eric
Hosmer said. Were a conf-
dent group. But we cant do
anything without winning
Game 6. Were excited to get
back home where we feed of
the fans and that energy.
Jake Peavy starts for San
Francisco and Yordano Ven-
tura goes for the Royals a
surprising matchup at this
stage of October in most
years, just not this one.
Te majors most notable
names during the regular
season Dodgers ace Clay-
ton Kershaw and Angels slug-
ger Mike Trout famed out
fast in the Division Series.
A trio of Cy Young winners
didnt do enough for Detroit.
Injuries slowed down former
triple crown winner Miguel
Cabrera and Cardinals ace
Adam Wainwright.
Even playof-proven starter
Jon Lester looked lost under
Octobers bright lights for
the one-and-done Athletics,
and up-and-coming starter
Stephen Strasburg showed
he still has to polish his post-
season poise for the Nation-
als.
Instead, these playofs bred
a new batch of baseball dar-
lings: Lorenzo Cain and
the running Royals, start-
er-turned-reliever Yusmeiro
Petit and a pair of blazing
bullpens that no longer over-
looked in the World Series.
Of course, no star has
burned brighter than a
25-year-old lefy from North
Carolina teammates call
MadBum.
Bumgarners winning per-
formances in Game 1 and
Game 5 not to mention in
every previous round of the
playofs has put San Fran-
cisco one win away from for
another parade down Mar-
ket Street, something Willie
Mays, Barry Bonds and gen-
erations of Giants fans had
dreamed of for so long.
Now its becoming an ev-
ery-other-year tradition.
Its not going to be easy
at all, Giants frst baseman
Brandon Belt said. It mat-
ters that we know that, and
I think everybody on this
team knows that. Were go-
ing to go out there and were
not going to let up. We cant,
because if we do theyre go-
ing to take advantage of it.
Royals rookie Brandon Fin-
negan might understand the
topsy-turvy nature of these
playofs better than anyone.
Only four months afer he
pitched in the College World
Series, the 21-year-old re-
liever got two key outs in
the seventh inning to help
Kansas City win Game 3. A
night later, Finnegan failed
to bridge the gap to the back
end of the bullpen, allowing
fve runs in Kansas Citys
11-4 loss to San Francisco.
Baseball can pick you up
quickly, Finnegan said, and
hit you in the gut quickly.
Sometimes longer and
harder than others.
Te Giants latest improba-
ble postseason run was pro-
pelled by the longest game
in playof history, a 2-1 win
in 18 innings over the Na-
tionals in Game 2 of the NL
Division Series. Travis Ishi-
kawa, a journeyman and frst
baseman converted to a lef
felder in San Francisco, hit
a three-run shot of St. Louis
Michael Wacha in the Game
5 clincher of the NL Cham-
pionship Series.
It was the frst homer to
send the Giants to the World
Series since perhaps the
most famous drive in base-
ball history Bobby Tom-
sons Shot Heard Round
the World in a 1951 playof
against the Dodgers.
Te showings in this fall
will surely earn some a big
payday come winter. Royals
right-hander James Shields
and San Franciscos slugging
third baseman Pablo Sando-
val are among those headed
for free agency.
For now those transactions
are on hold. One, maybe two,
of the seasons biggest games
await.
Te place is going to be
absolutely crazy, Royals
manager Ned Yost said.

With 10 minutes lef at Sport-
ing Park on Sunday night,
Sporting spelled out by
light-blue chairs amongst the
regular navy blue could be
read across the south bleach-
ers, a rarity for a stadium that
has sold out 53 consecutive
Major League Soccer games.
With play as lacking as it
was in the frst 80 minutes of a
game that determined seeding
in the Eastern Conference, the
empty stands were more than
warranted.
Sporting Kansas City failed
to score a single goal, while
the backline was unsuccessful
in containing the leagues best
striker, Bradley Wright-Phil-
lips, who came through with
two goals to ascend the New
York Red Bulls to the No. 4
spot in the Eastern Confer-
ence.
Sporting KC started the day
at No. 3, set to avoid the knock-
out round. But with a Colum-
bus Crew win, and a loss of its
own, Kansas City dropped to
No. 5 by the end of the day.
Te loss sets up a single play-
in match in New York against
the Red Bulls on Tursday at 7
p.m., the winner of which will
move on to play D.C. United in
a two-game series.
Wright-Phillips came into
the Sporting Park chasing
the Major League Soccer sin-
gle-season goals record, trail-
ing the record of 27 by two
goals. Against a disparaged
Sporting Kansas City defense,
the 29-year-old tied the record
set in 1996 by Tampa Bay for-
ward Roy Lassiter and in 2012
by San Jose striker Chris Won-
dolowski. He also solidifed
his spot as the winner for the
Golden Boot with the most
goals in the 2014 season.
In the 15th minute, Sporting
KC defender Aurelien Collin
went all-in on Wright-Phil-
lips afer he handled a well-
touched ball from New York
midfelder Eric Alexander, but
he didnt contest well enough.
Wright-Phillips snuck his way
past Collin and his right-foot-
ed shot was sent past diving
goalkeeper Eric Kronberg.
Te second goal came on an
error in the backline. As Col-
lin controlled the ball just in-
side the box, Wright-Phillips
chased him down from be-
hind, took control and made
a few dribbles across the box,
then chopped another one past
Kronberg to put New York on
top 2-0 in the 70th minute.
Sporting KC had 11 chances
to score, but none ever materi-
alized. Striker Dom Dwyer had
the teams best opportunity
early in the frst half. Minutes
afer Wright-Phillips struck
in the 15th minute, Dwyer
found himself with a low, swif
lef-footed shot that looked as
if to be heading to the back of
the net. Instead, it ended in
the hands of goalkeeper Luis
Robles, who needed only that
save and one other to record
the clean sheet.
Dwyer fnished the sea-
son with 22 goals, second
in the Golden Boot chase to
Wright-Phillips 27.
Te loss was Sporting KCs
second in an eight-game
stretch. Te team closed out
CONCACAF Champions
League play on Tursday with
a 2-0 loss to Deportivo Sapris-
sa in Costa Rica. In addition
to missing goalkeeper Andy
Gruenebaum, the team lost
midfelder Benny Feilhaber
and defender Igor Julio, both
of whom were unable to play
Sunday night.
Te statuses of all three play-
ers are up in the air for Turs-
days contest against New York.

this season that they ran out of
reworks to shoot off after every
touchdown.
ESPN
TCU erupts for 82 points Saturday, sets school and conference records
QUOTE OF THE DAY
B
asketball season is just around
the corner. Even though its
not quite here yet, one Big 12
football team put up basketball-like
numbers in its game this weekend.
TCU scored 82 points against Texas
Tech Saturday and now leads the
nation in points per game with 50.4.
With a blowout score of 82-27, the
game broke multiple records.
TCUs quarterback Trevone Boykin
broke the school record by throwing
seven touchdown passes. Boykin had
22 completions and zero intercep-
tions on the day.
I felt perfect, Boykin said afer the
game.
TCU scored more than 82 just one
time last season in basketball. Te
Horned Frogs beat Grambling State
98-75 last December and averaged
63.6 points per game on the year.
Te 82 points were a TCU record
and a conference game record. Last
time there was a game that did
substantial damage to the scoreboard
was back in 2003 when Oklahoma
railroaded Texas A&M 77-0.
Te only Big 12 team to score more
on an opponent in this era of football
was Oklahoma State back in 2012.
Te Cowboys were playing Savannah
State and scored 84-0.
How does a team get to 82 points?
Tere are many diferent ways to get
up there, but heres how TCU did it.
In the frst quarter, TCU scored three
touchdowns and one feld goal. In
the second quarter, TCU scored one
touchdown and two feld goals. One
feld goal and four touchdowns came
in the third quarter and two touch-
downs came in the fourth quarter.
TCUs kicker Jaden Oberkrom was
perfect on the day, making four feld
goals and 10 extra point kicks. He had
more points (22) than Texas Tech had
frst downs (21).
Te frst quarter of the game was
relatively close. TCU led Texas Tech
24-17. Te game was pretty much
decided when TCU went on a 30-0
scoring spree in eight minutes to start
of the third quarter.
TCU has two more games against
ranked teams remaining, at West
Virginia and at home against Kansas
State. Afer that, it might be possible
to see another high scoring game. Te
Horned Frogs come to Lawrence on
November 15, face Texas in Austin
on November 27 and play at home
against
Iowa State
on Decem-
ber 6. Te
Horned Frogs
close out their
schedule with
three of the four
schools at the
bottom of the Big 12 totem pole.
Teyve already taken on Okla-
homa, Baylor and Oklahoma State.
TCU defeated Oklahoma 37-33 on
the crazy weekend of college football
when 10 ranked teams went down.
Te Sooners were ranked No. 4 at the
time when TCU was sitting at No. 25.
Te TCU football team is current-
ly 6-1, only losing in an ofensive
shootout to Baylor 61-58 back on
October 11.

COMMENTARY
Depleted Sporting
KC team limps
into playoffs
As Sporting Kansas City
dropped to the No. 5 seed with
a loss to the New York Red
Bulls on Sunday, one thing
was clear to defender and team
captain Matt Besler: this year
isnt the same as any other.
Te team is in the playofs for
the fourth consecutive year.
Peter Vermes is still the coach.
Te core group headed by
Besler and midfelder Graham
Zusi is in tact. But if you look
around Sporting Kansas City,
there are only scattering re-
semblances to last years team,
which won the MLS Cup.
Every year is diferent,
Besler said. Last year, we
were in frst the whole year,
we came into the playofs
with some momentum. Its
going to be a diferent year, a
diferent challenge, but Im still
confdent.
Sporting KC isnt coming
into the playofs on a four-
game win streak or as a No.
2 seed like last season. Tree
of the 11 players who started
in last seasons championship
goalkeeper Jimmy Nielsen,
defender Chance Myers
and midfelder Oriol Rosell
wont be on the pitch for
Kansas City on Tursday.
Above all else, Sporting
Kansas City is running on a
nearly empty tank. Defender
Igor Juliao, goalkeeper Andy
Gruenebaum and midfeld-
er Benny Feilhaber are all
sidelined with minor injuries
and arent a shoe-in to play on
Tursday. Besler picked up
a nasty thigh contusion in a
game with the national team
on Oct. 14, and returned for
the frst time on Sunday.
Afer last nights game, Zusi,
defender Aurelien Collin,
Besler and several others were
in the training room getting
treatment, spending time in
cold and hot tubs trying to
prepare their bodies for the
short turnaround on Tursday.
With CONCACAF Champi-
ons League (CCL) group play
coinciding with the end of the
MLS regular season, the team
went from playing a match
every week to every three or
four days. Tursday will mark
Sporting KCs fourth match
in 12 days. Te players simply
dont seem to have a lot more
to give, and a team cant make
up for fatigue when numerous
starters are sidelined with
injuries.
Were a team that has
something to overcome,
Vermes said. Were tired in
a lot of diferent ways. When
you look at some of the many
guys that have been injured
guys whove had to play way
too many minutes where they
were fatigued its taken its
toll.
While the team is missing
pieces from last years champi-
onship team, theres no doubt
this Kansas City team has the
talent on the roster to repeat
its championship eforts. But
Kansas City has been on a
free fall over the last couple of
weeks. On Oct. 10, afer a 2-0
win against the Chicago Fire,
Kansas City was only three
points behind D.C. United for

S
Pierson ne after resting during bye week
STELLA LIANG
@stelly_liang
One of Kansas biggest of-
fensive weapons should be
available to play against Bay-
lor on Saturday.
Pierson, who lef the game
against Texas Tech afer two
plays with an upper-neck in-
jury, is rested and practicing
again, interim head coach
Clint Bowen said in the week-
ly Big 12 media teleconfer-
ence.
Pierson has lined up as both
a wide receiver and running
back this season; recently, he
has taken more snaps in the
backfeld.
We had him checked out
thoroughly, Bowen said.
Hes fne. Hes back to prac-
ticing. Tere shouldnt be any
issues.
Pierson is averaging 22
rushing yards and 27 receiv-
ing yards per game, which has
dropped a little because of his
departure from the last game.

RECRUITING GOALS
Since taking over as head
coach, Bowen said his biggest
recruiting objective is keeping
the 14 players who committed
before the coaching change.
He said he has kept in com-
munication with them and
made visits this past weekend.
Tis doesnt mean Bowen has
shied away from recruiting
new players.
He said there are players,
especially local ones, who can
make an impact regardless of
who the coach will be next
year.
If they choose to jump on
board because they want to
be a part of Kansas football
regardless of who the head
coach is, then well take those
commitments, and well con-
tinue to try to pursue those
commitments, Bowen said.

NEW RESPONSIBILITIES
Bowen knew the role of head
coach came with many new
tasks, but he was surprised by
just how many there were. He
has all of his defensive coor-
dinator duties, but now he has
to fgure out how to balance
the rest of his obligations.
Honestly, I thought at the
time my plate was pretty full
being the DC, Bowen joked.
BAYLORS CREATIVE OFFENSE
Kansas next opponent, Bay-
lor, goes into the matchup in a
position it has not faced this
season: coming of a loss.
Baylor is averaging 49 points
and 579 ofensive yards per
game. Up until its 27-41 loss
to West Virginia on Oct. 18,
the ofense was rolling over
opponents.
Te loss has Art Briles, Bay-
lors head coach, looking at
the smaller picture, he said
in the teleconference. Instead
of looking at the season as a
whole, he has a taken a game-
by-game approach, and frst
up is Kansas.
Bowen praised the Bears and
the consistent level of play
they have had under Briles.
Truly, they have one of
the most creative ofenses,
challenging ofenses in col-
lege football, Bowen said.
It shows up every year with
them being in the top of the
nation in ofense and scoring.

GEORGE MULLINIX/KANSAN
ESPN college basketball analyst Jay Bilas, the Master of Ceremonies,
speaks at the 60th anniversary of Allen Fieldhouse.
Allen Fieldhouse celebrat-
ed its 60th anniversary on
Monday by bringing back
the four living coaches who
have made an impact on the
Kansas basketball program.
ESPN college basketball ana-
lyst Jay Bilas was the Master
of Ceremonies and intro-
duced every player and the
coach they played for. Isaac
Stallworth introduced Ted
Owens, Michael Piper intro-
duced Larry Brown, Scott
Pollard introduced Roy Wil-
liams and Tyrel Reed intro-
duced Bill Self. Te three and
a half-hour event highlighted
the greatest moments in the
history of Allen Fieldhouse,
as well as the greatest mo-
ments from each of the four
coaches.

TED OWENS (1964-1983)
Owens said he was of-
fered the job 50 years ago by
then-Athletic Director Wade
Stinson. His original contract
was a $10,000, one-year con-
tract that would come to last
for over 20 years. His frst
victory in Allen Fieldhouse
was against New Mexico
while his greatest team was
the 1971 Final Four team,
which helped the NCAA by
breaking the color-barrier
with the likes of one of the
all-time greats JoJo White.
Owens concluded by say-
ing he missed the students,
walking through the tunnel
leading up to the court and
teaching the players.

LARRY BROWN (1983-1988)
Brown said he had been
everywhere, and Kansas was
still the best place to coach
and go to school. Brown re-
lived his days as a Kansas
coach, speaking about his
frst recruiting class in which
played Danny Manning, in
Browns opinion one of the
best college basketball players
of all time. Brown said Man-
ning was a special player who
helped get the Kansas team
to the 1988 National Cham-
pionship and later the title. It
was that year that helped him
become the coach he is today.
Brown lef saying he owed his
successful coaching career to
having coached at Kansas.

ROY WILLIAMS (1988-2003)
With tears in his eyes, Roy
Williams took the podium.
Speaking about when he
frst got his job with UNC,
Williams explained how he
wouldnt wear the Tar Heel
tie because of his loyalty to
Kansas. Williams still wears
his Kansas sticker when
watching KU games, most
notably during the national
championship when Kan-
sas defeated North Carolina,
despite getting chewed out.
Of all his moments at Kan-
sas, one stood out the most
for Williams the senior
night for Scott Pollard and
Jacque Vaughn, during which
students threw thousands of
roses onto the foor in ap-
preciation. Williams said the
photo of that memory still
hangs in his ofce at North
Carolina. Williams thanked
the fans for allowing him to
be come back. Go KU, Wil-
liams said. Te Fieldhouse
erupted.

BILL SELF (2003-PRESENT)
Following Williams, Bill
Self fnally took the stage.
Self spoke about his time
as a freshman at Oklahoma
State in 1982 when he scored
12 points in the Fieldhouse.
When he arrived at Kansas as
a coach, Bilas and Dick Vitale
said he couldnt repeat what
Roy Williams had accom-
plished at Kansas. Self called
his father, who explained
he could stay in Illinois if
he wasnt ready to make the
move to Kansas. Self said he
took up his fathers challenge
and accepted the Kansas
coaching job. Self said the
best moment of his career
was Tomas Robinsons block
on Phil Pressey of Mizzou,
which led to Kansas winning
the fnal border showdown
within Allen Fieldhouse.
