The plot of land where the
Moon Bar used to be is for sale.
Xin Li Sonny Liu, owner of
the land since 2003, said he had
already owned four restaurants
and had no time to take care of
the Moon Bar. Liu owns Royal
Peking Restaurant, 711 W. 23rd
St., and TryYaki, 701 W. 23rd St.
in Lawrence and two others in
Manhattan.
Liu began leasing the proper-
ty, 821 to 831 Iowa St., in April.
Now he wants to get rid of it
all together: the building, park-
ing lot and the land west of the
building.
He said he would like to see
the nearly 40,000-square-foot
site sell for about $1.25 million
because of the location. He said
everything was brand new when
he bought the building.
Heather Kirchheser, a real-
tor at Realty Executives Hedges
Real Estate, is working to sell the
property for Liu. She said she has
been doing business with Sonny
for a while.
He had several other restau-
rants, but was still at the Moon
Bar every night until three or
four in the morning, Kirchheser
said. Sonny wasnt getting much
sleep. He was working all day
and night, and just got tired.
Several developers are inter-
ested in the property, Kirchheser
said. She said she received calls
from restaurateurs, dentists, bar
owners, developers and an eye
doctor.
She said the property was ad-
vantageous to own because the
lands site-plan, which was made
in 2003, allows the owner to
build a six-unit apartment com-
plex three bedrooms and two
baths in each unit to the west
of the bar.
A site-plan is decided by
Landplan Engineering, an engi-
neering consulting company. A
consultant looks at the square
footage of the lot and decides
what can feasibly be done. What-
ever is built on the land must be
approved by the city, but at this
point an apartment complex is
possible, Kirchheser said.

Student leaders from through-
out the Big 12 Conference came
to campus this weekend to meet
one another, swap ideas and
tour the University at a confer-
ence of student leaders.
The event, which the Univer-
sity played host to for the frst
time since the Big 12 was formed,
brought 53 students representing
each school in the conference,
except the University of Colo-
rado because of a scheduling
confict, to Lawrence. Students
started arriving on Thursday and
stayed until Sunday.
Last year the conference was
held at the University of Ne-
braska. Students at the confer-
ence bid on where it will next
be held.
The conference included
tours of campus, Allen Field-
house and the Spencer Muse-
um of Art. There were discus-
sion sessions on issues such as
campus transportation, higher
education funding and commu-
nity outreach.
Melissa Horen, Overland
Park junior and conference co-
ordinator, said the event was a
great way to learn how the Uni-
versitys student government
worked and to showcase the
University and Lawrence.
Students also has an oppor-
tunity to learn some Univer-
sity traditions. Rohini Ram-
nath, Iowa State University
junior, said of all the things she
learned, the one that stuck in
her head was the Rock Chalk
Chant.
Its so fippin catchy, Ram-
nath said.
Ramnath said Iowa State
sent eight students to the con-
ference. She said the group
thought the campus was awe-
some, and came away with
several projects to bring home.

Starting off the evening, Saturday Night Live comedian Kenan Thompson performs his stand-up routine. The night also inclued a
performance by Seth Meyers, another SNL comedian.

Performing live on a Saturday
night, attending two parties after-
ward with Catherine Zeta-Jones
that accidentally last until 1 a.m.
and then getting on a plane later
that morning to perform again on
Sunday night is all part of a days
work for Kenan Thompson and
Seth Meyers.
The Saturday Night Live
pair performed their stand-
up comedy routines for
more than 500 students
Sunday night
at the Lied
Center. The event kicked off the
University of Kansas Homecom-
ing Week.
The two comedians talked
about what its like to deliver a
live performance on national tele-
vision every week, what sketches
they like the best that got cut, why
they like performing for college
students and their future plans.
Thompson opened up the eve-
ning, but nervously mumbled most
of his way through the act. The
show was only his fourth time to
deliver stand-up com-
edy. He
end-
ed on a high note, however, with
his signature Bill Cosby impres-
sion. He related a story where his
mother ended up being bounced
on Cosbys lap.
Referencing a joke to previous
sexual allegations later dismissed
against Cosby, Thompson said:
She was like some club foozy.
Not enough evidence to pros-
ecute? Whatever.
Thompson is in his third sea-
son on SNL. He made his televi-
sion debut as a member of Nick-
elodeons all-kid sketch comedy
series All That. Thompson has
a l s o appeared in
movies in-
cl udi ng
D2: The Mighty Ducks, Good
Burger,
Barbershop 2 and Fat Al-
bert.
Meyers said performing on SNL
was comparable to opening and
closing a Broadway produc-
tion within a single week.

television-movie, Brians
Song, inspired from his
football experiences. Say-
ers became friends with
running back Brian Piccolo

KANSAN CORRESPONDENT

Oct. 27, 1962 Kansas Comet
Gale Sayers, sophomore half-
back, rushed for 283 yards against
Oklahoma State, breaking records
at University of Kansas and the Big
8 Conference.
His contribution could hardly
have come at a better time for the
Jayhawks. A string of injuries had
strained their morale before the ght
against the Cowboys. The University
Daily Kansan reported in October
1962 that three players in the sec-
ondary unit had injured their ankles
or knees.
A victory was important for both
teams to stay in the race for the Big
8 Title. The Cowboys led 17-7 in the
rst half, according to the KU His-
tory Projects Web site.
Enter Gale Sayers.
He carried the ball 21 times for 283 yards, breaking the previous years
record of 270, the Kansan reported. Coach Jack Mitchell called it the
greatest comeback victory he had seen because the Jayhawks won 36-17.
I could live to be 100 years old and coach 1,000 football teams, but
there would never be a victory that would match that one, he said.
After the game, Sayers earned the nickname the Kansas Comet. He
set seven NFL records, scored 22 touchdowns in 1965 and earned an in-
duction at age 34 into the Pro Football Hall of Fame.
And ESPN article wrote, Sayers is remembered for his astonishing
speed and cuts in changing directions to elude tacklers. Bill Cosby once
described him as the man who splits himself in half and leaves the half
without the football with the tackler.
Oct. 29, 1994 Spooner Hall Celebrates Centennial
The Universitys oldest academic building turned 100 years old.
William Spooner, a Boston philanthropist and merchant, died in 1880
and left the University nearly $100,000 in his will. This amount marked
the largest donation ever made to a state university, Robert Taft noted in
his book, The Years on Mount Oread.
But the money wouldnt be given to the University for more than a
decade.
The will that would nance Spooner Halls construction was so com-
plicated that it took 11 years to nd its recipient. Taft wrote that the estates
executor could not transmit the bequest until he had deciphered the will.
The University received the gift in the fall of 1891.
Chancellor Francis H. Snow requested most of the money to fund a
library, according to the KU History Projects Web site. The building hon-
ored Spooners memory by bearing his name. When it opened in 1894,
Spooner Library met with high recognition and praise. The national
magazine Harpers Weekly called it simple in construction, convenient,
adequate in its detail and thoroughly modern in design.
Despite its promising beginning the Kansas Alumni magazine noted
it featured electric lighting only 13 years after the light bulbs invention
Spooner Librarys collection quickly outgrew the building.
Watson Library opened as a replacement in 1924, and Spooner gained
new life as the Spooner-Thayer Art Museum, according to the magazine.
However, the collection again outgrew its home. In 1978, Spooner yielded
again to its second replacement, the Helen Foresman Spencer Museum of
Art, according to the Web site. Spooner Hall earned a spot in history in
1990 when it was added to the National Register of Historic Places.
Today Spooner Hall houses the Universitys anthropological collec-
tions, formerly kept in Blake Hall, according to the Web site.

MTV goes behind the
scenes with Madonna
NEW YORK Madonna is worried
that her secret wasnt juicy enough.
When her new documentary, Im
Going to Tell You A Secret, pre-
miered in New York, she said she
was nervous the audience wouldnt
like it.
It was like, Oh my God, oh my
God, I hope I did the right thing. Oh,
that scene is too long. Oh, thats
too short. Are they going to get this
part? Are they going to like this? Oh,
theyre going to think its boring!
Just worrying the whole way, biting
my fingernails off, she told ABC
News Radio.
The documentary, which aired Fri-
day on MTV, is a behind-the-scenes
look at Madonnas Re-Invention
Tour.

Judge could throw out
conviction of Sizemore
LOS ANGELES A judge wants the
city attorneys ofce to show why Tom
Sizemores conviction for beating former
girlfriend and Hollywood madam Heidi
Fleiss should not be thrown out, accord-
ing to the actors attorneys.
The 44-year-old actor has appealed his
conviction, arguing that a photograph of
Fleiss with facial bruises may have been
fabricated. The photograph was taken
in April 2003 by Tara Dabrizzi, a friend of
Fleiss, who didnt testify at Sizemores
trial.
Sizemores attorney, Michael J. Rovell,
said they had been unable to nd Dab-
rizzi, who left the U.S. the day after taking
the photo. The defense also questioned
whether she even exists.
I completely deny that she doesnt ex-
ist, said Deputy City Attorney Robert Cha.

LOS ANGELES The Rock did not meet his
doom at the box ofce, but his latest action ick came
in with a light pop instead of a bang during another
slow weekend at movie theaters.
Doom, adapted from the sci- video game, de-
buted as the top movie with a modest $15.4 million,
according to studio estimates Sunday. The movie led
a lackluster lineup that continued Hollywoods box-
ofce slump, with the top 12 movies taking in $71.3
million, down 27 percent from the same weekend last
year.
Dreamer: Inspired by a True Story, a horse racing
family lm starring Kurt Russell and Dakota Fanning,
opened in second place with $9.3 million.
Charlize Therons blue-collar drama North Coun-
try, based on the real-life story of a woman who led a
sexual-discrimination lawsuit against male co-workers
at a mining company, premiered a weak No. 5 with
$6.5 million.
Stay, starring Ewan McGregor, Naomi Watts and
Ryan Gosling in a thriller about a psychiatrist racing
to save a suicidal patient, opped with a $2.15 million
debut.
Films in limited release opened strongly. The ro-
mance Shopgirl, starring Steve Martin, Claire Danes
and Jason Schwartzman in an adaptation of Martins
own novella, debuted in eight theaters with $236,000.
The comic crime thriller Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang,
starring Robert Downey Jr. and Val Kilmer, took in
$174,300 in eight theaters.
Both lms expand to more theaters over the next
couple of weeks.
Hollywood has been in a box-ofce slide for most
of the year, with admissions running about 8 percent
below 2004 levels.
Though distributor Universal expects to make its
money back on Doom, the studio had hoped for a
bigger opening weekend, said Nikki Rocco, head of
distribution.
Im very concerned about the marketplace, Roc-
co said. There are so many movies out, so much to
choose from, yet the marketplace continues to fall, and
not just by little amounts.
Other studio executives are sticking to the idea that
the industry has simply had a prolonged run of movies
that failed to pack in crowds.
Ive been telling people for a long time that I think
its content-driven. I dont think we had a lm that
jumped out for people this weekend, said Dan Fell-
man, head of distribution for Warner Bros., which re-
leased North Country.
Warner has a certain blockbuster coming in mid-
November with Harry Potter and the Goblet of
Fire. Other big lms scheduled through the holidays
include King Kong, The Chronicles of Narnia:
The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe and The
Producers.
October typically is a slow time for movies. Over
the same weekend a year ago, though, the box-ofce
shot up on the unexpectedly strong debut of the ghost
story The Grudge, which opened with $39.1 mil-
lion.
In all fairness, this was more of a typical late-
October weekend, as opposed to a year ago, when
`The Grudge surprised everyone and made this
weekend look pale by comparison, said Paul Der-
garabedian, president of box-ofce tracker Exhibi-
tor Relations.

TOPEKA When it comes to
Kansas politics, the only thing certain
is the uncertainty.
When the last gubernatorial joust
started four years ago, Democrat
Kathleen Sebelius was the underdog
in her quest to occupy the ofce va-
cated by a popular GOP governor in
a state where Republicans are as nu-
merous as sunowers on the summer
prairie.
But a zig here, a zag there, and
Sebelius found herself in November
2002 drawing moderates to the polls
and winning against conservative Re-
publican Tim Shallenburger.
Now shes the incumbent, and
many Republicans have visions of her
calling the moving van after the Nov.
7, 2006, general election.
Already, House Speaker Doug Mays
and former Speaker Robin Jennison
want to be her replacement. Add to
the list of governor wannabes Sen.
Jim Barnett of Emporia, a newcomer
to the statewide political stage.
Barnett faces two denite draw-
backs easing through the briar
patch of a party divided and emerging
from the Aug. 1 primary as the chal-
lenger, and getting known to voters
so their rst question wont be Jim
who?
At age 51, hes a physician in his
hometown where he served on the lo-
cal school board before being elected
senator in 2000. With a quiet, soft-
spoken manner, hes not some tradi-
tional, tub-thumping loudmouthed
politician.
For Barnett to win the primary and
take out Sebelius, he must be a bridge
builder.
The challenge facing Barnett, like
other candidates, is getting his name
known to voters statewide. Therein
lies a circular problem.
Name recognition means spend-
ing money. Spending money means
getting money. Getting money means
contributors. Contributors want
someone they know can be a winner.
You just have to pound your name
in just like Coca-Cola where every-
body will know you, Shallanburger
said.
Anything goes in politics

Kirchheser said if someone interested in

and the interested party would then make a
decision whether to put in a contract.
When all the contracts have come in, Kirch-

It could be based on the amount of money

Court rules gay, straight sex must be equal
By John hanna
The AssociATed Press
TOPEKA Attorney Gener-
al Phill Kline doesnt plan to ap-
peal a unanimous ruling Friday
by the Kansas Supreme Court
that the state cannot punish il-
legal underage sex more harshly
if it involves homosexual acts.
The American Civil Liberties
Union hopes to get the case to a
lower court next week to obtain
the release of Matthew R. Li-
mon, serving a prison sentence
of 17 years and two months for
performing a sex act on a 14-
year-old boy in 2000.
Had one of them been a girl,
Limon could have faced only
15 months behind bars under a
special Romeo and Juliet law
allowing lighter punishment
for teenage sex. He already has
served more than fve years and
national groups on both sides
of the gay rights debate were
watching his case.
Kline said in a statement that
while he needed to review the
decision further, he doesnt an-
ticipate asking the U.S. Supreme
Court to take the case. Kline has
repeatedly described Limon as a
predator because Limons crimi-
nal record already contained
two similar offenses.
In a unanimous decision,
the court ordered Limon resen-
tenced as if the law treated illegal
gay sex and illegal straight sex the
same and gave the state 30 days
to act. It also struck the language
from the law that resulted in the
different treatment.
Kansas high court said the
different treatment violated
Limons constitutional right of
equal protection.
Justice Marla Luckert wrote
the immediate, continuing and
real injuries caused by the law
outweighed any legitimate jus-
tifcation for it. Lower courts
ruled the state could justify the
law as protecting childrens tra-
ditional development, fghting
disease or strengthening tradi-
tional values.
The laws language suggests
animus toward teenagers who
engage in homosexual sex,
Luckert wrote, adding, Moral
disapproval of a group cannot
be a legitimate state interest.
The case will return to Miami
County District Court. County
Attorney David Miller said he
hadnt decided how he would re-
spond because he wanted to thor-
oughly review the decision frst.
Even if the prosecutor de-
cides to charge Limon anew,
hes already served longer than
the maximum sentence allowed
under the Romeo and Juliet law.
Limon is now at the states medi-
um-security prison in Ellsworth.
We are very happy that Mat-
thew will soon be getting out of
prison, said James Esseks, of
the ACLUs Lesbian and Gay
Rights Project, who represented
Limon. We are sorry there is
no way to make up for the ex-
tra four years he spent in prison
simply because he is gay.
Both Limon and the other
boy, identifed only as M.A.R.
in court documents, lived at a
Paola group home for the devel-
opmentally disabled. In court,
an offcial described M.A.R. as
mildly retarded and Limon as
functioning at a slightly higher
level but not as an 18-year-old.
Attorney General has no plans
to appeal unanimous decision
In a unanimous decision, the court ordered
Limon resentenced as if the law treated illegal
gay sex and illegal straight sex the same and
gave the state 30 days to act.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for
Monday, Oct. 24, 2005: This year you
have an unusually lucky period com-
ing to you sooner rather than later. You
need to follow your intuition using your
intellectual rationale. You also have
the capability to detach yourself from
diffcult situations. As a result, you
can often break through rigidity and
diffcult problems. You will become Mr.
or Ms. Solution-Finder. Often, you will
be in a position of leadership. Accept
your status with grace, and your lead-
ership skills will be enhanced. If you
are single and you want a relationship,
you will have your pick of suitors. If
you are attached, you will help your
relationship grow through empathizing
with your sweetie. Have you ever no-
ticed that LEO can be pushy? You will.
ARIES (March 21-April 19)
HHH Someone has an investment or
moneymaking idea that just might work.
You can also say no or take your time
deciding how involved you want to be.
The more questions you ask the better.
Add that unique touch of creativity, and
you might come up with a better idea.
Tonight: Play the night away.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20)
HHHH You might justifably wonder
what hit others. Questions and
requests pop up out of left feld.
The answers can be gotten, but you
need time. Make calls and schedule
appointments. Your phone calls make
waves -- good ones! Tonight: Happy
as a clam at home.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20)
HHHH You might suddenly discover
that you have overextended yourself,
and panic. Why? Take a realistic look
and start seeking out ideas and sug-
gestions (besides to stop spending).
A conversation could be enlightening.
Tonight: Talk about a problem. Dont
shut down.
CANCER (June 21-July 22)
HHH With the Moon in your sign,
your power continues to draw strong
results. Be careful about a risk or
gamble, especially if youll get the re-
sults in the evening. You have unusual
creativity; use it now. Tonight: Gather
your bills.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)
HHH Though you might not be the
epitome of energy and excitement,
you can accomplish a lot on your own.
Others respond to your withdrawal
with curiosity. By the evening, you re-
gain your energy and pizzazz. Tonight:
The world brightens up.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
HHHH If you want to get something
important accomplished, get to it right
now, during the daylight hours. Others
work well with you. Rethink plans late
this afternoon, perhaps going with a
trusted confdants ideas or just relax-
ing. Tonight: Not to be found.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
HHHH You need to think through a
problem with directness and clarity.
Others might be more than happy
to put in their two cents. You could
be overwhelmed at frst, but by the
evening, you know which path to head
down. Tonight: Find your pals.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
HHHHH Your vision and opinions
are much more in demand because
somehow you dont trigger and
instead see the high road or the
solution. Use these abilities to work
through a problem you are dealing
with. Tonight: Out late.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
HHHH You seem to fourish when
others tumble. Think about a partner-
ship that might need a greater invest-
ment, time-wise or fnancially. You
fnd unusual solutions. Dig into your
resources. Tonight: Your strength is
your mind.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
HHHHH Others know what they
want and expect. The best path is
to go along with them, as you really
cannot control anyones behavior
but your own. A partnership needs
to grow, and will with your attention.
Tonight: Quality time with a special
friend.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
HHH Your focus on accomplish-
ment makes you a force at work
or in your daily life. What you can
accomplish during the day could
awe others, maybe even you.
Socialize later in the day. Squeeze
in some networking. Tonight: Follow
anothers suggestion.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)
HHHH Your creativity and natural
instinct put you on the right path, even
if others think your actions are a bit
curious. Think through a decision that
could change the quality of your daily
life. Tonight: Slow down. Run errands.

PARIS Celine Dion is
already planning to have a
second child after her contract
with Caesars Palace ends in
2007.
The 37-year-old singer said
she plans to begin in vitro fer-
tilization treatments at a New
York clinic after fnishing her
work at the Las Vegas venue, a
gig she started in 2003.
Im approaching 40 years
old, and I have to tend to that,
Dion told the French Entertain-
ment magazine Tele 7 Jours.
This frozen embryo that is in
New York is my child waiting to
be brought to life.

NEW YORK This book
changed my life.
That oft-mouthed phrase
was the title of a 12-hour read-
ing marathon on Saturday
featuring actor John Lithgow,
actress Rosie Perez and dozens
of others all celebrating 70
years of The New York Times
best-seller list.
Lithgows life-changing book
was Winnie the Pooh.
The characters are not hes-
itant to use wonderful words
like pathetic and bracken
reeds along the river. He
uses those words, knowing
kids will ask What does that
mean? said Lithgow, star of
the Broadway musical Dirty
Rotten Scoundrels.
Rosie Perez read an excerpt
from A Tree Grows in Brook-
lyn.

NEWS
BY DAVID ROYSE
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
KEY WEST, Fla. Hurri-
cane Wilma accelerated toward
storm-weary Florida on Sun-
day, threatening residents with
105-mph winds, tornadoes and
a surge of seawater that could
ood the Keys and the states
southwest coast.
After crawling slowly
through the Caribbean for
several days, Wilma pulled
away from Mexicos Yucatan
peninsula as a Category 2
storm and, forecasters said,
began picking up speed like
a rocket as it headed toward
the U.S. mainland.
The storm was expected to
make landfall around dawn this
morning.
The southern half of the state
was under a hurricane warn-
ing, and an estimated 160,000
residents were told to evacuate,
although many in the low-lying
Keys island chain decided to
stay.
I cannot emphasize enough
to the folks that live in the Flori-
da Keys: A hurricane is coming,
Gov. Jeb Bush said. Perhaps
people are saying, Im going to
hunker down. They shouldnt
do that. They should evacuate,
and theres very little time left to
do so.
Forecasters expected ood-
ing from a storm surge of up to
15 feet on Floridas southwest
coast and 8 feet in the Keys.
Tornados were possible in some
areas through Monday.
Max Mayeld, director of the
National Hurricane Center in
Miami, predicted Wilma would
dramatically pick up speed as it
approached Florida.
Its really going to take off
like a rocket, he said. Its going
to start moving like 20 mph.
Wilma would mark Floridas
eighth hurricane since August
2004 and the fourth evacuation
of the Keys this year.
Only about 20 percent of the
Keys 78,000 residents ed, ac-
cording to Billy Wagner, senior
emergency management direc-
tor for Monroe County.
If they dont get out of there,
theyre going to be in deep trou-
ble, he said.
There was sunshine Sunday
morning in the Keys and even
some recreational boaters as
many residents went about their
normal routines.
We were born and raised
with storms, so we never leave,
Ann Ferguson said from her
front porch in Key West. What
happens, happens. If you be-
lieve in the Lord, you dont have
no fear.

Not only was Thursdays Penguins entirely unfunny,

EDITORIAL
While the riots that fol-
lowed the Neo-Nazi protest
last week in Toledo, Ohio,
were unfortunate, they were
ultimately a small price to pay
for one of the most precious
rights that the United States
offers its citizens: freedom of
speech.
By no means does the edi-
torial board think that the
Neo-Nazi philosophy should
be supported or even con-
doned, but in order to keep
the institution of free speech
alive, it must be tolerated.
The day that United States
officials starts making excep-
tions on who has the right to
protest or congregate will be
when all citizens rights are in
jeopardy.
If Neo-Nazis cant march,
the government might start
making other judgment calls
based on the personal agen-
das of the officials in charge.
Only groups who shared
the same ideals as the govern-
ment might soon be the only
ones allowed to speak their
opinions.
At that point, the United
States government will have
lost all that made it different
from the oppressive regimes
around the world; regimes it
has spoken out against and
fought throughout its history.
The United States would be
hypocritical for fighting Nazi
Germany, the Communist So-
viet Union, and many other
regimes because it would be
censoring the public as well.
The city officials of Toledo
only did what was right by
letting the Neo-Nazis march.
They did not release the
path of the march so that peo-
ple who wanted to protest the
marchers could not find them
as easily.
Community leaders urged
angry people to stay calm and
let the Neo-Nazis protest.
They did this in hope of
avoiding a riot, and they pre-
pared for the worst as best as
possible.
Although 12 officers were
injured and 114 people were
arrested, no one was killed.
Ultimately, the situation
was handled well.
Everyone in the United
States has the right to protest
his or her government as long
as it does not infringe on oth-
ers rights and safety.
The Neo-Nazis did not start
the riot, and the Toledo city
officials had no way of know-
ing the capacity in which the
riot would occur.
City officials could not can-
cel the march based on the
possibility of a riot because
there could always be that
possibility with every march,
so they made the right move.
They let the Neo-Nazis
proceed and tried to control
the damage when things got
ugly.
Anne Weltmer for the
editorial board.
(The riots) were
a small price to pay
for one of the most
precious rights that
the United States of-
fers its citizens: free-
dom of speech.
KILLS VAMPIRES DEAD
Cheating and abuse go hand
in hand.
When investigating a domes-
tic disturbance, some of the
characteristics that police look
for are cheating and abuse. But
evidence of abuse is hard to nd
because only physical abuse
leaves visible indicators. In most
cases, abuse in relationships is
mental abuse.
This is seen even on the Uni-
versity of Kansas campus, espe-
cially in instances of cheating
boyfriends who have girlfriends
who are too afraid to leave them,
or an obsessive, jealous ex who
uses fear to try to retain control
of a relationship.
Ladies and gentlemen, these
scenarios are more common
than you think. When it comes
to cheaters, the truth does come
out eventually.
Cheaters always get caught.
If you cheat, try and nd what
little respect you have for your
girlfriend and stop. Or tell her
the truth.
She might break up with you,
but at least she will know you
had the guts to tell her the truth
instead of sneaking off to jump
in another womans bed.
I knew a guy who had the
sweetest girlfriend but still tried
to get with other girls. This guy
needed to stop thinking with his
dick and start thinking about
how hes breaking this girlfriends
heart. Another guy, when I asked
him about cheating, told me, It
dont matter. Who cares about
relationships anyway? I have
to say, no woman wants to deal
with a cheater.
Ladies, this is a big issue here
on campus. Something needs to
change among the men, as well
as us women.
We women need to make it
clear to men that we arent go-
ing to put up with cheaters. We
need to remain strong on this
issue. Cheating men only bring
trouble.
Abuse is often an unmen-
tioned side effect of a relation-
ship gone wrong. This is a major
problem.
I had a friend tell me in con-
dence that she was scared of
her ex-boyfriend because he had
already threatened her. I told
her that if he ever threatens her
again, then she needs to take le-
gal action.
When the cops get involved
in domestic disturbances, infor-
mation leaks out to the media.
Now, if the man in question was
a highly-proled gure, say a stu-
dent leader or an athlete, then
the leak to the media would be
detrimental to his career.
Many people might not be
aware of the Tracy Thurman
story. Her story helped make do-
mestic violence a national issue,
especially after the Torrington,
Conn., police department failed
to protect her from her abusive
husband. Tracy called the police
to the scene, but the police saw
no physical evidence.
Afterward, her husband, Buck
Thurman, grabbed a butchers
knife and stabbed her more than
37 times, leaving her paralyzed
and hanging on to her life.
This could have been avoid-
ed if emphasis was placed on
healthy relationships in chil-
drens education.
Unfortunately, we live in a
world where if we see no evil,
then it doesnt exist. Abuse hap-
pens every day on campus, which
is a disturbing statistic. These
instances can involve guys who
you would never suspect would
go to extremes. And the worst
part is that some people praise
these men for their behavior.
Its time that we end the cheat-
ing, lying and the lack of respect
for one another. People need to
take responsibility for their ac-
tions. Men, if you cheat, it is not
acceptable. Ladies, dont accept
your men cheating on you. You
can do so much better than that.
There are nice guys out there
who wont cheat or threaten
you. If you are a nice guy who
respects women, then stand up
and let yourself be noticed. Stop
being too bashful to say anything
to an attractive woman in fear
she might shut you down.
Keep making your presence
known, and maybe more guys
will follow your example, change
their behavior and respect wom-
en.

get caught. If you

Or tell the truth.

You know, fortunes these days really
arent that great.
I highly agree with the article about the Spirit Store,
in regards to Kyle Billings, owner of Fun and Games
store said, its wrong for a business to come in for
one month and steal from the legal liscensed ven-
dors. I hope that the college kids understand that its
important to shop with local vendors because they
are the ones who pay taxes to help their school.
These y-by-night outts actually take away from
the local economy and the school in the long run.
So, if you need a new costume, go local.
Go Chiefs!
Man, if it werent for the offensive mascot, I think
the Chiefs would be pretty much perfect.

Meyers, whose grandfather
is a KU alumnus, got his start
in comedy while attending
Northwestern University.
I was an absentee student
that did a lot of improv in my

was right.
Indeed, the audience en-

Peals of laughter erupted
most notably when he face-
tiously ripped into, of all
groups, juniors in college.
Freshmen: I love you guys.
Sophomores: Let me go on
the record of saying I love
you guys. Juniors: I hate you.
I hate you so much and dont
pretend like you dont know
why that is. Seniors: Youre

The comedian is best
known for his imperson-
ations of Senator John Kerry,
actor Hugh Grant and origi-

insulting scientist Dr. Dave
Klinger aka Zinger.
Meyers said he enjoyed
performing in front of college
students because they were so
enthusiastic.
They have yet to be
crushed by the weight of life,
he said.
Travis Arey, Shawnee fresh-
man, said Meyers did an ad-
mirable job during his perfor-
mance.
He did even better here
than on SNL. He gets crap
bits on the show, Arey said.
Like many of their famous

BOULDER, Colo. Trailing
16-13 at halftime, it appeared
Kansas was in perfect shape to
steal a victory. But 15 minutes lat-
er, the Jayhawks started suffering
their worst beating of the season.
Yes, all was well when the
Kansas offense came alive after
three fruitless possessions, with
the insertion of senior quarter-
back Jason Swanson. A beauti-
ful diving catch by junior cor-
nerback/wide receiver Charles
Gordon just before halftime
broke the embarrassing streak
of 10 quarters without a touch-
down. The team went into the
locker room with momentum
on its side.
We were all in there jacked
up and yelling, Swanson said.
We were real confdent com-
ing out in the second half, but
things just fell apart.
So, what was the difference
between the frst half and the
second?
It wasnt that the KU defense
wore down. Kansas won the
time-of-possession battle in the
frst half, and for the frst time
during this conference season,
its defense was well rested for a
second-half push.
Colorado football coach Gary
Barnett had nothing but praise
for Kansas defense.
We struggled running the
ball. We went three straight snaps
with one yard, he said. Kansas
defense is very, very good.
Improvements by Colorado
werent the difference, either.
The Buffaloes helped the Jay-
hawks all day by committing 10
penalties for 97 yards.
Its also hard to blame the KU
offense. Though it didnt score a
single second-half point, the Jay-
hawks produced 50 more yards
of offense than the Buffaloes. In
weeks past, that would have been
more than enough for a victory.
Basically, Kansas got everything
it had lacked in the past three
weeks. But none of it mattered.
The team invented new ways to
lose, and ended up being destroyed
by 31 points after playing its most
promising frst half of the season.
Kansas football coach Mark
Mangino blamed the loss on
special teams.
Swanson said it was the little
things that went wrong that
killed the Jayhawks.
But from the press box, it
looked like a mental problem.
Kansas made foolish miscues
in the frst half, but was able to
fght back from them.

BOULDER, Colo. Senior

unusual sight for a player on a
team that was down 16-13.
Swanson replaced senior
quarterback Brian Luke midway

Kansas on three scoring drives,

KANSAN SENIOR SPORTSWRITER
BOULDER, Colo. The
Kansas offense and defense have
been in the spotlight for good
and bad reasons this season. It
was the Kansas special teams,
though, that made several mis-
cues Saturday night during Colo-
rados 44-13 blowout victory.
The frst slip was in the frst
quarter when Kansas lined up to
punt in its own end zone. Sopho-
more punter Kyle Tucker couldnt
handle freshman tight end Russell
Brorsens snap and fumbled the
ball, giving Colorado a safety.
The part that disappointed
me the most tonight was special
teams, Kansas football coach
Mark Mangino said. Its usu-
ally been pretty solid for us, but
tonight I think we accounted for
23 points for Colorado and when
special teams does that, its going
to be a long night.
Another major mistake came
shortly after halftime when Colo-
rado was leading 16-13. Kansas
punted again and the snap was
fne, but Tuckers kick was blocked
by Colorado fullback Brendan
Schaub and picked up by Colora-
do safety Dominique Brooks, who
took the ball 28 yards the other
way for a touchdown.
After that play, the score was
23-13, and Kansas never got any
closer. Colorado continued to
build its lead throughout the game,
and Kansas special teams contin-
ued to make mistakes.
Two series after the blocked
punt, Colorado tried a fake feld
goal and succeeded. Holder
Nick Holz kept the ball and ran
it down the sideline for 21 yards
and a frst down to the Kansas 3-
yard line.
Colorado had previously
called a timeout to get the right
personnel on the feld for a fake.
The Buffaloes sent out only 10
players, so Colorado football
coach Gary Barnett called a
timeout before the fake feld
goal.
The fake feld goal, the timing
was just right to do it, Barnett
said. They gave us the look and,
not having enough guys on the
feld, calling a timeout probably
helped us in the situation because
I wasnt going to send it in the frst
time. I sent it in the second time.
One play later, Colorado quar-
terback Joel Klatt connected
with tight end Joe Klopfenstein
on a 3-yard touchdown pass,
and Colorados lead stretched to
17 points.
After the fake feld goal, Kan-
sas fell apart, throwing three
interceptions and allowing a 62-
yard Klatt touchdown pass.
Senior defensive end Charl-
ton Keith, who was also a spe-
cial teams member, said the
team needed to perform in all
three phases of the game in or-
der to be successful.
This game is all about being
a team, Keith said. Whether
youre on special teams, the kick-
ing team or defense, you have to
come out here and do your job.
The second you let up, you can
see what happened, and our team
let up a few big plays when we
werent into the game mentally.
The game wouldnt go with-
out one more blunder. Colorado
wide receiver Stephone Robin-
son returned a punt 81 yards for
a touchdown late in the fourth
quarter. Robinson split Kansass
defenders in the middle of the
feld and then took it down the
sideline for the score. Robinsons
touchdown would close out the
scoring for the game, capping
off Colorados 44-13 victory.

KANSAN SPORTSWRITER
The Kansas soccer program
is one of the youngest sports on
campus, and in its 10-year his-
tory the team had never once
defeated Texas.
Sure, there was that one tie
in 1999, but no Kansas soccer
team could say it had actually
won against Texas. Until Sun-
days 2-1 victory, that is.
On a cold and
gray weekend,
Kansas swept a
pair of weekend
matches at the
Jayhawk Soc-
cer Complex,
defeating Colo-
rado College,
2-1, on Friday
before defeat-
ing Texas. The
visitors elected
to cover them-
selves in feece
pants, hats and
gloves, but the
Kansas players
elected to go
without coats,
electing to wear just their uni-
forms.
If the results from the week-
end are any indication, the
Jayhawks made the better deci-
sion.
With 3:16 to go against Texas,
senior forward Kimberly Kar-
fonta drilled the game-winner
from 10 yards out. Karfonta
didnt follow the goal with her
traditional round-off back fip in
front of the goal, however.
It was more important for me
to share that with my teammates,
Karfonta said. Sundays game will
be aired on tape-delay by College
Sports Television on Tuesday.
The goal, Karfontas third of the
season, brought an onslaught of
objections from Texas soccer coach
Chris Petrucelli, who thought Kar-
fonta fouled before her shot. In-
stead, Kansas (10-6-2, 5-3 Big 12)
snapped a four-game Texas (9-7-1,
6-4 Big 12) winning streak.
This is great, Karfonta said.
This is a huge win. It feels real-
ly good for the whole team. We
were aggressive consistently and
thats what we needed to do.
Both teams hung on because
of their defenses in the frst half.
The game went into the fnal 45
minutes tied 0-0. Kansas took
twice as many shots as Texas,
20-10, but only two more shots
on goal, 8-6.
I thought we deserved to win
the game overall, Kansas soc-
cer coach Mark Francis said. I
thought we had the better chanc-
es. Im very excited. It was a good
win against a good team.
Sophomore defender Afton
Sauers right-place, right-time
movement scored the frst goal
of the afternoon. The goal, in
the 57th minute, was Sauers
second of the
season. Fresh-
man midfelder
Jessica Bush
and senior for-
ward Caroline
Smith shared
the assist.
I just hap-
pened to be
there every-
one else did the
work, Sauer
said. I just
tapped it in.
In a matter of
minutes, after a
television time-
out, Texas tied
the score 1-1 in
the 71st minute. Texas forward
Ashley Foster knocked it in for
her third score of 2005.
I was a little concerned when
they tied it up, Francis said. I
thought that might take the wind
out of our sails a little bit. We
showed a lot of maturity. With
such a young team thats been
a little bit of a struggle for us at
times this year.
Foster stepped in after the
Longhorns leading scorer, Kelsey
Carpenter, left the game with an
apparent ankle injury in the 14th
minute. The sophomore forward
did not return to the game.
Kansas jumped out to an ear-
ly start against nonconference
foe Colorado College on Friday,
as junior midfelder Michelle
Rasmussen and Smith played a
give-and-go to result in Rasmus-
sens third goal of the season.

KANSAN STAFF WRITER

The time for a turn-around
is growing short for the Kansas
volleyball team.
The Jayhawks woes contin-
ued Saturday night in Waco,
Texas, as Baylor dispatched its
guests 3-1 in an important Big
12 match. With nine matches to
go, the Jayhawks are now 12-8
and 4-7 in conference play. The
latest loss was their fth in a
row and sixth in their last seven
matches.
Baylor junior middle blocker
Desiree Guilliard-Young, who
has battled injuries this sea-
son, turned in a career perfor-
mance for the Bears. Her 18
kills and 11 blocks led Baylor
to its fourth conference victory,
which matched the teams total
from last season and tied it with
Kansas for eighth place.
Kansas was paced by senior
middle blocker Josi Lima, who
tallied 16 kills, 11 digs and 4.5
blocks on the evening. She was
one of four Jayhawks to record
double-doubles. Senior setter
Andi Rozum nished with 52
assists and nine kills in the los-
ing effort.
Junior outside hitter Megan
Hill had her best match since
replacing injured junior Jana
Correa. She had 13 kills, a new
career high.
Kansas volleyball coach Ray
Bechard said he was disap-
pointed in the outcome but ap-
plauded the teams effort.
There are some technical
things we need to improve on
but they are xable, he said.
The team is in the right frame
of mind right now and extremely
united in what they know they
can accomplish this season.
Both squads were efcient on
offense. Baylor posted a .285 at-
tack percentage against Kansas
.229. A key for the Bears was de-
fense. Their unit recorded 18.0
blocks to the Jayhawks 10.0.
Once again, serving was a
problem for the Jayhawks. They
had 15 service errors and only
four aces. In contrast, Baylor had
a successful night serving, with
nine aces and only eight errors.
Kansas has averaged 3.13 er-
rors per game this season from
behind the line. That has negat-
ed its 1.71 aces per game aver-
age, which is second in the Big
12 Conference.
We took a few more risks,
Bechard said. They were going
to side out and score points if
we didnt become aggressive, so
its kind of a catch-22.
Bechard said the team worked
on serving every day in practice,
but sometimes putting so much
emphasis on one area was coun-
terproductive.
Its kind of like shooting free
throws in basketball, Bechard
said. The more you think about
it and work on it, it doesnt nec-
essarily get worse but it doesnt
get better either.
Things will not get easier for
the Jayhawks. If they hope to
snap their skid, they must do
so on the road against No. 1
Nebraska on Wednesday night.
If that task werent daunting
enough, history is also railing
against Kansas. The Jayhawks
only win against the Cornhusk-
ers was in 1975. They have nev-
er won in Lincoln.
Wed like to get a win, but
were looking at it as a 10-game
season from here on, Bechard
said. We need our share of wins
to extend our season. Its an-
other opportunity for us to get
better.

Eli leads New York to Giant comeback
Kathy Willens/THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
New York Giants linebacker Antonio Pierce tackles Denver Broncos tight end Jeb Putzier on second down in the second quarter of their game Sun-
day at Giants Stadium in East Rutherford, N.J.
BY DAVID PORTER
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J.
Eli Manning was backped-
aling under pressure, spinning
away from a defender and heav-
ing the ball in what looked like
desperation.
Except there was nothing des-
perate about this pass, caught in
the end zone on the run by a
leaping Amani Toomer with :08
remaining to give the New York
Giants a 24-23 victory against
Denver on Sunday.
The second-year quarter-
backs education took another
huge step forward with the
two-yard touchdown toss that
capped a brilliant comeback
drive and snapped Denvers six-
game winning streak, despite
another stellar running effort by
the Broncos.
Trailing 23-17 with 3:29 left,
Manning drove the Giants from
their 17 to the Denver 2. The big
play that got them there was a
24-yard pass to tight end Jeremy
Shockey on third-and-10 at the
Denver 32.
After an incompletion and a
short pass to Tiki Barber, Man-
ning, off-balance and under
heavy pressure, found Toomer
just inside the goal line for the
score.
Its was a familiar sight, but
with a different result: Last
week, Manning led his team on
a similar drive in Dallas, spin-
ning away from a blitzing de-
fender and hitting Shockey in
the end zone to tie the game
with less than a minute left. But
the Giants never got the ball in
overtime and lost to the Cow-
boys 16-13.
Manning, who had been kept
on the run by Denver for most of
Sundays game, nished 23-of-
42 for 214 yards and two touch-
downs for the Giants (4-2), who
trailed from midway through
the second quarter until the -
nal drive. His other touchdown
pass came to Plaxico Burress in
the rst quarter.
Denver (5-2) quarterback
Jake Plummer nished 18-of-29
for 194 yards and one touch-
down, and Jason Elam kicked
three eld goals for the Bron-
cos. Elam missed a 49-yarder
with 5:18 left in the game after
Barber scored on a 4-yard run to
bring the Giants within 6 points
at 23-17.
Manning was intercepted
by Champ Bailey on the Gi-
ants next possession, but
New York held Denver on
downs and got the ball back
one more time.
Mike Anderson gained 120
yards on 24 carries and scored
on a 2-yard touchdown run for
Denver, while Tatum Bell had
60 yards on 8 carries.
The Broncos, the NFLs third-
best rushing team, ran for 191
yards, 38 yards more than their
average coming into the game.
The second-year quarterbacks education
took another huge step forward with the 2-
yard touchdown toss that capped a brilliant
comeback drive and snapped Denvers six-game
winning streak, despite another stellar running
effort by the Broncos.
Football
continued from page 1B
We were all in there jacked up
and yelling, Swanson said of the
atmosphere in the locker roomat
halftime. It was the most excited
I have seen a team at halftime,
down, not having a lead.
That was the most excited
Swanson and the rest of the Jay-
hawks would be.
The offense didnt score a sin-
gle point after halftime and fell
to the Colorado Buffaloes 44-13
Saturday night.
Swanson led an improved
Kansas offense, passing for 291
yards and a touchdown, but
tossed three interceptions. Kan-
sas football coach Mark Mangi-
no said he still liked what he
saw from Swanson.
I think he got some throws
off that we havent been able to
get all year, Mangino said.
Swansons performance so-
lidifed him as the starter for
next weeks homecoming game
against Missouri as well.
He is going to have to do
something awfully wrong from
now until the next game not to
start the game, Mangino said.
Luke was ineffective
against Colorado, going 1-for-
5 for just two yards and was
injured, prompting Swanson
to enter.
We knewthat Swanny would
get them rallied, Mangino said.
He took control of the huddle
right away.
Swanson led drives for two
Kansas feld goals and a touch-
down, as time wound down in
the second quarter.
Swanson hit junior corner-
back/wide receiver Charles Gor-
don in the left corner of the end
zone for a 7-yard touchdown
that cut the Colorado lead to
16-13. It was the Jayhawks frst
touchdown in more than two
games and the closest Kansas
would get in the game.
Senior wide
receiver Mark
Simmons caught
fve passes for
76 yards and be-
came the Kansas
all-time recep-
tions leader with
137 in his career.
Simmons was
also impressed
with Swansons
performance.
He did a
hell of a job,
Simmons said.
He hadnt played all season
and he looked like he had been
out there for four years.
The offensive performance
was the best for the Jayhawks
in more than a month. The unit
actually outgained the Colora-
do offense 354 yards to 304.
The problem this week for the
Jayhawks was special teams.
Mangino said the special
teams unit either gave up or set
up 23 Colorado points.
The special teams unit really
put us in a hole, Mangino said.
I think there are two or three
units that had some mistakes,
some mental mistakes.
The special teams blunders
cost the Jayhawks 16 points
and another set up a Colorado
touchdown.
The frst was in the frst quar-
ter when sophomore punter
Kyle Tucker was unable to han-
dle a high snap in the end zone.
Tucker threw the ball out of the
end zone for a safety, not risk-
ing a Colorado defensive touch-
down. The safety gave Colorado
a 9-0 lead.
The second error was more
costly. Colorado blocked a Kan-
sas punt in the third quarter and
returned it for a
touchdown and
a 23-13 Colo-
rado lead.
Whatever mo-
mentum Kansas
had at halftime
was lost after
the touchdown,
which was re-
turned by Colo-
radosafety Dom-
inique Brooks.
C o l o r a d o
later faked a
feld goal in the
second half, and brought the ball
to the Kansas 3-yard line. This
set the Buffaloes up for another
touchdown and put them up
30-13. The Kansas special teams
unit also allowed an 81-yard punt
return for a touchdown in the
fourth quarter.
Senior defensive end Charl-
ton Keith led the KU defense
with nine tackles. After watch-
ing the offense struggle for three
weeks, the defense saw a differ-
ent offense against Colorado.
They made big play after big
play, Keithsaid. They fnally took
the pressure off us a little bit.
The production wasnt
enough though with the special
teams miscues.
The 44-13 loss was the biggest
defcit of the season for Kansas
and the largest margin of defeat
since last seasons 41-10 loss to
Oklahoma.

Editors Note: The Kansan Big 12
Power Rankings are voted on by Ryan
Colaianni and Daniel Berk, Kansas
football writers, as well as Kellis Robi-
nett, sports editor, and Eric Sorrentino,
associate sports editor.
The Texas Longhorns took a big step
down the path to this years Rose Bowl
with a convincing 52-17 victory against
No. 17 Texas Tech. The voters unanimous-
ly elected Texas to the frst spot in this
weeks power rankings. The Longhorns
accumulated 205 yards and fve touch-
downs on the ground against the Texas
Tech Red Raiders. Texas will play three
of its last four games on the road, but the
schedule is still favorable. Texas will face
Kansas at home and Oklahoma State,
Baylor and Texas A&Mon the road.
The biggest winner of the week was
Missouri. The Tigers crept up two spots in
the standings to the fourth ranking with
a 41-24 victory at home against then No.
24 Nebraska. Missouri quarterback Brad
Smith put together his best performance of
the season, individually accounting for 480
yards of offense. Smith torched Nebraska
on the ground for 246 yards and three
touchdowns. Smith had touchdown runs
of 4, 46 and 79 yards.
The biggest loser of the week was Ne-
braska. The Cornhuskers dropped fve
spots into the eight spot after losing at Mis-
souri. The Cornhuskers have home games
against Oklahoma next week and Kansas
State, and road games against Kansas and
Colorado.
For the frst time all year, Kansas was
unanimously voted into the last spot.
The Jayhawks are now winless in confer-
ence play, but have three of their last four
games at Memorial Stadium. The remain-
ing schedule includes playing host to Mis-
souri, Nebraska and Iowa State and going
on the road against Texas.

Key Plays:
Kansas received a break during
its second drive of the game.
Colorado was fagged for a
5-yard penalty for running
into the kicker. Coach Mark
Mangino chose to go for the
frst down and ran a play
action pass. Luke was sacked
and Kansas turned the ball
over on downs.
Quarterback Joel Klatt hit a
wide open Joe Klopfenstein

other 15 yards and the touch-
down which put Colorado up

Extra points:
Senior wide receiver Mark Sim-

yards, moved into frst place
on the Kansas all-time recep-
tion list. He has 137.
Gordons touchdown reception in
the second quarter was his
ninth of his career and put him
in a tie for 10th place on Kan-
sas all-time touchdown list.
The Colorado victory against
Kansas was the ffth straight
in the series against Kansas.
For the second consecutive game,
Gordon and freshman wide
receiver Marcus Herford
started on offense. Gordon
did not start at cornerback
and saw limited action there,
mainly on third downs.
Kansas fails to capitalize
Robinett
continued from page 1B
Five minutes into the game,
the Jayhawks lost 11 yards on
a fourth down conversion at-
tempt, and gave up a touchdown
three plays later. No problem.
Later in that quarter, a bad
snap led to sophomore punter
Kyle Tucker taking anintentional
safety. The teamstayed resilient.
But when Colorado blocked a
Kansas punt three minutes into
the second half, the Jayhawks
were fnished.
On the next drive, Kansas fum-
bled the ball and Colorado scored
another touchdown within three
minutes. Thencame a 62-yard Col-
orado touchdown pass, which was
followed by an 81-yard punt return
for another CUtouchdown.
All of a sudden, what looked
like a close game was a blowout.
This wasnt like the 31 point
losses in the Tangerine Bowl or
last years game against Oklaho-
ma, where Kansass defense was
completely overwhelmed by an
opponents passing game.
No, Colorado scored one
cheap touchdown, and snow-
balled that momentum into 28
second half points. A team play-
ing with maximum effort and in-
tensity doesnt let that happen.
But the Jayhawks did, and
they paid the price with their
fourth straight loss.

Bruised Rams defeat Saints
Lackluster Wildcats need two wins to survive to postseason
BIG 12 FOOTBALL
James A. Finley/THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
New Orleans Saints Earnie Conwell appears to have control of the football
on a pass from quarterback Aaron Brooks with St. Louis Rams defensive
back Jerome Carter defending during the second half of the game Sunday in
St. Louis. The Rams Mike Furrey picked up the football off Conwell while he
was on his back and ran 67 yards for the touchdown. The Rams defeated the
Saints 28-17.
BY R.B. FALLSTROM
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
ST. LOUIS With so many
key pieces missing, the St. Louis
Rams went into survival mode.
That was enough to beat the spi-
raling New Orleans Saints.
Steven Jackson scored on a
pair of short runs for the Rams
and Kevin Curtis got the go-
ahead touchdown on a 5-yard
reverse with 5:58 to go in a
come-from-behind 28-17 vic-
tory Sunday.
Behind 36-year-old backup
quarterback Jamie Martin
who was making only his fourth
career start St. Louis stopped
a three-game losing streak and
kept hope alive that itll still be
a factor if they ever get healthy.
Mike Martz is in the hospital
with an infection and the Rams
quarterback and two starting
wide receivers were in street
clothes because of injuries.
Just somehow to be able to
get a win, thats huge with all
those guys out, Martin said.
We need to just keep it going
and hopefully get another one
next week, and when they get
back well be rolling.
The Rams (3-4) are at home
against the Jaguars next week
and then have a bye.
A pair of failed trick plays
came back to haunt the Saints
(2-5), who squandered a 14-
point rst-quarter lead and have
lost three in a row. A quarter-
back sneak on a fake eld goal
on fourth-and-one was stuffed
for no gain near the end of the
third quarter and Donte Stall-
worths fumble on a fourth-quar-
ter reverse led to the go-ahead
score. The Rams also blocked a
eld goal attempt in the second
quarter.
We had chances to make
plays and we just didnt step up
and make enough plays, coach
Jim Haslett said. They made
plays when they had to, thats
basically what it boiled down
to.
Martin, subbing for the in-
jured Marc Bulger, was ineffec-
tive most of the day. But he hit
Curtis for a 42-yard gain to the 6
to set up the winning score, and
then led the blocking on Curtis
clinching TD run after the wide
receiver took a handoff from
Jackson.
I did just enough, Martin
said. Im not a lineman, I just
tried to shield him and let Kevin
do what he wanted to do.
Martin, who threw two cru-
cial interceptions in a loss at
Indianapolis on Monday after
Bulger was hurt, was 18-for-29
for 198 yards with no intercep-
tions against the Saints. The 36-
year-old won for the rst time in
four career starts.
Mike Furreys 67-yard inter-
ception return with 1:55 to go
wrapped it up for the Rams (3-
4), who are 1-1 in the last two
games, both without Martz. The
coach was sidelined by a bacte-
rial infection of a heart valve,
and assistant head coach Joe
Vitt has been running the show.
Bulger is out with a sprained
shoulder and Torry Holt (knee)
and Isaac Bruce (turf toe) also
did not dress, robbing the Rams
of considerable repower.
Aaron Brooks threw touch-
down passes on the Saints rst
two drives. After that, the team
without a home zzled and its
three-game winning streak in St.
Louis came to an end.
Furreys touchdown return
came a play after a defensive
holding call on third down gave
the Saints a fresh set of downs at
their own 42.
The Saints wanted to chal-
lenge the interception return
but couldnt because they were
out of timeouts and although
the play ended with 1:55 left, it
began with 2:10 to go and the
NFL only takes over after the
two-minute warning.

MANHATTAN Kansas
State has stalled on the come-
back trail.
A 4-1 start raised hopes of a
quick recovery from last years
disappointing 4-7 nish, which
broke a string of 11 straight
postseason appearances.
But after going 0-2 since then,
the Wildcats must win at least
half their last four games two
of them against the Big 12 North
co-leaders, Colorado and Mis-
souri to avoid spending a
second straight bowl season at
home.
Obviously, if you arent win-
ning, theres a sense of urgency,
offensive tackle Jeromey Clary
said Saturday, after Kansas
States second-half comeback
fell short in a 30-28 loss to Texas
A&M.
The Wildcats (4-3, 1-3 Big 12)
havent gone bowlless in back-
to-back seasons since 1991-92.
We have our backs against
the wall, linebacker Bran-
don Archer said. We have to
come out ghting and get some
wins.
The Wildcats have done that
before most notably in 2003,
when they lost their rst two
conference games before rip-
ping off a seven-game winning
streak that included a 35-7 up-
set of then-No. 1 Oklahoma in
the Big 12 title game.
Kansas State also salvaged a
bowl bid in 2001 despite a four-
game midseason losing streak,
and started the 2002 conference
season 1-2 before winning its -
nal ve Big 12 games.
Those Wildcat teams had
strong running attacks, though
something this years team
hasnt had since the season
started. Kansas State managed
only 27 yards rushing against
Texas A&M (5-2, 3-1), the third
Big 12 team to hold the Wildcats
fewer than 50 yards this year.
Were still having trouble
with the running game. That
falls on the offensive line, said
Clary, the only senior starter in
the unit. We have to pick it
up.
There were bright spots,
though, for Kansas State to take
into this weekends home game
against Colorado.
In his second start, Allan Evr-
idge threw for 357 yards ve
short of the school record for
freshmen and three touch-
downs.
We threw the ball more, so he
was more in command, coach
Bill Snyder said. There was less
balance in the offense, because
of falling behind and having to
throw it a little bit more, but I
thought he did a nice job with
that.
Obviously, if you arent win-
ning, theres a sense of urgency.

CHICAGO Scott
Podsednik made it two
electrifying home runs for
the White Sox and two
World Series wins.
Podsedniks home run off
Brad Lidge in the ninth in-
ning gave Chicago a thrill-
ing 7-6 victory over the
Houston Astros on Sunday
night and put the White
Sox halfway home to their
frst World Series title in 88
years.
Incredible. What a ball-
game, Podsednik said. I
was sitting on a fastball the
entire at-bat.
After yet another dis-
puted umpiring call, Paul
Konerko capped a mo-
mentous week with a sev-
enth-inning grand slam on
reliever Chad Qualls frst
pitch, giving the White Sox
a 6-4 lead and sparking the
crowd of 41,432 to life on a
drizzly, dreary night.
But Game 1 hero Bobby
Jenks couldnt work his
magic two nights in a row.
Jose Vizcaino, pinch-
hitting for
Adam Ev-
erett with
two outs in
the ninth,
hit an op-
posite-feld
single to
left off the
burly re-
liever that
drove in two runs and tied
the game at 6.
Chris Burke just beat
Podsedniks on-target throw
to score the tying run, slap-
ping the plate with his
hand, but Podsednik made
sure in the bottom half that
the game didnt go to extra
innings.
Podsednik didnt have
any home runs in 507 regu-
lar-season at-bats. He hit
his frst of the season in
the division series opener
against Boston.
He came up with one out
in the ninth
a g a i n s t
Lidge, who
h a d n t
p i t c h e d
since Game
5 of the NL
champion-
ship series
a g a i n s t
St. Louis,
when he gave up a three-
run homer to Albert Pujols
that teammates joked rose
to airplane cruising alti-
tude.
This one wasnt as long,
but it was just as damaging.
Podsednik lofted the ball
to right-center feld, and
players and fans craned to
see whether it would clear
the fence. When it did, Chi-
cago players poured out of
the dugout to greet Podsed-
nik at the plate.
Chicago pressured re-
liever Dan Wheeler on Juan
Uribes one-out double and
Tadahito Iguchis walk, and
the White Sox loaded the
bases when Jermaine Dye
was awarded frst base on a
3-2 pitch that umpires ruled
hit his hand. Houston dis-
puted the call, and replays
appeared to show the ball
striking his bat.
If it had been ruled a
foul ball, the count would
have remained full on Dye.
But he took frst, Qualls
relieved and he left his
frst pitch over the plate.
Konerko turned on it, and
it went deep into the left-
feld bleachers.
It was Konerkos ffth
postseason homer.

It was a really easy goal,
Rasmussen said.
Caroline placed it right on
my foot. All I had to do was
pass it in. Caroline did all the
work.
The opening minutes ap-
peared to foreshadow a blow-
out.
Kansas had its second goal
on the board just seven min-
utes after the first.
Senior forward Jessica
Smith swung a deflection
from Colorado College goal-
keeper Geneva Sills back to
Karfonta for her first goal of
the weekend.
From 15 yards out, the net
was wide open.
Karfonta performed her
typical round-off back flip on
Friday, in celebration of her
accomplishment.
Its a fun celebration, but
definitely scoring the goal is
more fun, Karfonta said.
Molly Uyenishi knocked in
the first goal of her career for
Colorado College in the 39th
minute, ending the evenings
scoring.
Freshman goalkeeper Julie
Hanley kept the Tigers quiet,
allowing just one goal while
saving three.
Sills allowed two goals, but
was forced to save nine.
Kansas wraps up the regu-
lar season on Friday against
Missouri at the Jayhawk Soc-
cer Complex.
