1 The UI Facilities Services Group . paint shop was the latest Iowa

City structure to be ~ffected by ~re when improperly d1scarded pamt filters spontaneously combusted Thursday morning.

Iowa City firefighters were called to the shop, 107 W. Burling­ton St., at 4:49 a.m., fire officials said.

When the firefighters entered the building, they enco';lntered small ejj;plosions from pamt cans stored in the area. Firefighters had to pull insulation from the ceiling to fully extinguish the fire, fire offi­cials said. They added that the blaze was put out quickly.

The fire began after a worker failed to dispose of used paint fil­ters properly, said Steve ~~r~tt, associate director of Umvers1ty

Relations. Instead of getting rid of them in an outside bin, the filters were left in an indoor trash ca.n beneath a table. Paint on the fil­ters then spontaneously combu~t­ed starting the blaze, Parrott srud.

The fire was prevented from spreading to other areas of the building, including the UI carpen­ter shop and sheet metal shop. However, both shops sustained minor smoke damage.

A wooden table, ceiling insula· tion and ceiling fans were dam­aged in the fire. Also, a hole was burned between the top of the north wall and the building's roof.

Firefighters from Coralville, West Branch and Solon were called to help fight the blaze. Fire offi­cials estimate the damage at $50,000. .·

The frre was Iowa City's third m the past week and fourth in two weeks. It is the first to affect ~I property. The three other fi~es dis­placed more than 40 Iowa Ctty res­idents and UI students, some of them permanently.

A."child-care crisis" a1 the Uland In the community has prompted the Campaign to Organize Graduate Students to sponsor a child-care rally in front of Jessup Hall at noon today, according to organil~rs

Representing 2,600 teachmg and research assistants, UE Local 896-COGS has scheduled the rally to bring the neces· sity of affordable and quality child care to the attention of Ul administrators

·so far. we have more than 700 signa­tures from undergraduates, staff. faculty and COGS members on a petition asking the university to take serious steps to address these problems,· said Deborah Herman, president of COGS.

According to Herman, February's 1999-2001 collective bargaining agreement between COGS and the Ul along with the Iowa state Board of Regents did nol. inclu<!e child-care assistance because lhe 1ssue IS not considered mandatory by Iowa labor law

"Permissive topics are voluntary in_ a collective bargaining agreement, so ch1l.d care is an issue that we could have negoll· ated in our contract, but the university chose not to; Herman said.

Deadwood to sponsor benefit concert for fire victims

It's no secret that Iowa City's chapter of the American Red Cross has been busy lately. It's also no secret that all its help isn't free.

By donating things such as vouchers lor hotels, food and clothing to local residents affected by recent fires. the Iowa City Grant Wood chapter has depleted much of its funds. But those who have been helped by the Red Cross aren't forgetting its generos­Ity.

Jim Bell, owner of the Deadwood laver~. said some of the fires' victims asked for h1s help in giving back to the organization.

"When 1 asked them what I could do to help, lhey told me that I should do some; thing that would benefit the Red Cross, Bell said ·rhey told me about all the won­derful things the Red Cross has don~ lo help them and make this transition a little bit easier for them."

The group often works wrth a composer to come up with a piece of music and an interpretation of it, said Mark Engebretson, the quarters soprano saxophone player.

"This interaction between the composer, the perfonner and the audience is important, because it creates the living, breathing art fonn that music is," Engebretson said. "Without that interaction, music Is dead, like a piece in a museum."

This music is not that unusual, said Matt Sintchak, an assistant professor and saxo- ' phone instructor at the Ul School of Music. '

CORDELE, Ga. (AP) - A 33-year-old transvestite was beaten to death in rural Georgia, and authorities were investigating the beating as a possibly hate-mot}vated crime.

Covered with blood and bleeding from head wounds, Tracey Thompson managed to walk a half mile to a fa111house before he lost consciousness. He died Tuesday at a hospital.

"We backtracked where he had walked down the dirt road and found the crime scene," Sheriff Stacy Bloodworth said

Wednesday. "In the middle of the road were blood and a partial piece of a baseball bat."

The bat appears to be the murder weapon. Georgia Bureau of Investigation agent Gary Rothwell said today.

Rothwell said authorities were able to question Thompson before he died, but he declined to say what the victim told them. He said Thompson lapsed Into uncon­sciousness while he was being questioned.

Possible motives ranged from robbery to a sex- or hate-crime. Rothwell said. But the state has no specific law that provides for extra punishment for attacking a person because of hts or her sexual orientation.

Thompson. who also used the names Billy Joe Turner and Tracey Turner, was

wearing blue jeans and a white shirt dotted with pink flowers, and the couple whose home he went to at first thought he was a woman, authorities said.

Rothwell said Thompson lived in Dalton in northern Georgia but was often seen at truck stops along Interstate 75 in southefn Georgia. Cordele is about 1 0 miles off the interstate in southern Georgia.

"We don't know whether or not this (killing) had anything to do with his lifestyle," he said. . The beating took place late Monday or

early Tuesday.

• A tape of the call reveals Jonathan Schmitz telling a dis­patcher he had killed a man who admitted having a crush on him.

IJJI11Suhr Associated Press

PONTIAC, Mich. - A former guest on "The Jenny Jones Show" sobbed and repeatedly mentioned the program as he told a 911 dis· patcher that he had killed a gay man who went on the show to reveal a crush on him.

A tape of the conversation between Jonathan Schmitz and the dispatcll­er was played Thursday for jurors hearing a $50 million wrongful death lawsuit against the show, its distrib­utor, Warner Bros., and producer, Telepictures Productions.

The lawsuit, brought by the family o( Scott Amedure, contends the show's "ambush" tactics humiliated Schmitz and drove him to shoot Ame­dure in March 1995, three days after the two appeared on the program. The episode never aired.

Schmitz had been invited on the show to meet a secret admirer, only to discover that it was Amedure, an . acquaintance. Amedure went on to describe fantasies involving Schmitz as the audience whooped and hollered.

The defense contends Schmitz knew that the secret admirer could be a man or a woman and that Schmitz and Amedure had a sexual relationship after the show was taped.

Schmitz was convicted of Ame­dure's murder in 1996, but the ver­dict was overturned due to an error in jury selection, and his retrial is pending.

During his criminal trial, Schmitz's lawyers admitted he killed AJnedure but said the shooting was

Plans to destroy the Hannon Building on the comer of Iowa Avenue an~ Linn Street and to build a parting ramp in its place got Iowa City residents buzzing anct The Daily lowads editorial·writers thinking. Then the renewed talk during ~he UISG ca ... palgn season about Iowa City's perceived parking problem got the editorial writers writing. Here are their takes on Iowa City's parting problems and possible solutions.

0Jit of sight, ·out of their .minds

I

Parking ramps. Cruel extensions of the American dream, these hundred-car garages are a testament to the human race's resis­tance to public transporta­tion, as well as its propen­sity to achieve convenience at any price.

Downtown Iowa City is home to three of these coiled concrete behetJoths so far.

Iowa City's planners and politicians deserve credit

for addressing what can be a

D~m headache for carbound downtown com­muters, students and shop­pers.

Their solution, however, does not involve increase9 or more efficient mass pub­lic transportation. Their solution will not result in reducing the often tangled downtown traffic.

Their solution is another parking ramp.

The proposed Iowa Avenue ramp will house 600 parking spaces when it is built, replacing 200 parking meters along Iowa Avenue, as well as a few pesky buildings on Linn Street.

There is no question this new parking ramp will come in very handy. Gone will be the days of finding a ticketed windshield, of vis­iting the impound lot, of enduring agonizing trips around the block in search of a meter.

Never again will people be forced to walk more than thi-ee blocks from their car to their destination.

Students will be big win­ners when the new ramp is built - no more sneaking away· in mid-lecture to plug the one-hour meters. They will not be forced to leave their cars at home, take the bus or walk, even if they live a quarter-mile away.

Loyal downtown shop­pers armed with parki~g

validations will no longer be enticed to Coral Ridge Mall's blacktopped acres. Once downtown goes largely meter­free, though, for­get about free parking after 6 p.m. and all day Sunday.

At leaat the cars will be hid- · . den away, swal­lowed safely inside the con­crete beast: Out of sight, out of mind.

The formerly metered Iowa Avenue median can be converted to green space in the summer, and a place to pile snow during the winter. Of course, that is a stretch. Everyone knows the city does not plow the downtown streets.

The new Iowa Avenue ramp seems like a solu­tion, until the 875-space Capitol Street ramp is con­sidered. Attached to the Old Capitol Mall, the ramp had over 200 empty park­ing spaces every weekday in February.

On weekends the ramp stood nearly half-empty. Let's not forget the Dubuque Street and Civic Center ramps, either. Meanwhile, motorists still circle Iowa Avenue hoping for an open meter.

There is no shortage of parking spaces in downtown Iowa City if you know where to look and are willing to walk a few blocks. Down­town Iowa City is getting· another ramp anyway, whether it needs it or not.

Tim McGovern is a Dl editorial writer.

The Harmon Building, at the corner of Iowa Avenue and linn Street, is to be destroyed to make way for a parking ramp.

Looks can be ·more than deceiving · Parking in Iowa City. The

subject will anger even the most happy-go-lucky of Iowa City residents, many of whom insist there are no parking spaces downtown.

The city is addressing the parking shortage by building a ramp on the corner of Iowa Avenue and Linn Street. To carry out this project, two existing buildings will be destroyed. The historic Har­mon Building, where Planned Parenthood is housed, is one of them. The other houses the Cottage Bakery.

'l'he ramp is perceived as vital, because a couple hun­dred metered spots on Iowa Avenue are going to be elimi­nated for "ae.sthetic" purpos­es, said Doug Ripley, traffic engineering planner for Iowa City.

It seems strange that yet another parking ramp will

be built to make downtQwn Iowa City better looking. Does anyone really think a ramp will add to Iowa City's aesthetic sensibilities?

Green spaces and interest­ing architecture are what make small college towns such as Iowa City beautiful - not parking ramps. It is unfortunate that the city and the UI are not creating parking areas that can co­exist with older buildings and green spaces around town and on campus.

By neglecting to include underground parking areas in the plans for the new biolo­gy and medical facilities (such as the one in the Pappajohn Business Building), the UI has ignoreCl a small but effec­tive way to provide conve­nient and environmentally friendly parking spaces.

In addition, it is equally shameful that ramps are

not being erected in areas already reserved for park­ing. Surely a small part of the Hancher Auditorium lot could be reserved SoRAV::~~ for the construe- As n~ tion of a ramp. AD ~u&wu I

And although the city already owns part of the

1 Linn Street lot next to the Hamburg Inn, it insists on knocking down the Har- I mon Building a few blocks I away.

. Planned Parenthood has been unable to relocate down­town, more businesses may close and all of the Pedestrian Mall's trees may be chopped down in the name of progress, convenience and aesthetics.

However, Iowa City will soon be able to boast of hav­ing a parking ramp on every block.

Abusing their parking privilege CREDITS This special section was written by editorial writ· ers Soraya Asadl, Greg

Flanders, Tim McGovern, Mary Mroch,

Forget all the fires and mys­terious deaths, we have a far more burning question to answer: Who's taking up all

. the parking spaces in Iowa City?

So, putting aside all my far

MAR~~ less im.~~~t.ant M ~n~ responsibilities,

ROC 'U I.!!J~ u~ I took a moment to come up with a thesis.

As of January 1999, 7,493 students had registered their cars with them, and for some crazy reason people think the UI has a parking problem. What a shocker.

Of those cars, 921 belong to reeidence~hall residents who are supposed to park their cars in the far-away storage lots. That number is 921 too many.

What exactly do students who live on-campus need a car for at the UI? To drive · from Daum Residence Hall to the Pappajohn Business Building'? I think not.

Or maybe they need it to drive from Slater to the Field­house Restaurant & Bar and back, so they can be pulled over for an OWl. I guess that isn't it, either.

Let's face the fact's: Stu­dents who live in the dorms just don't need cars. Every­thing they need .:..... 'and sev­eral things they don't - is within walking or busing distance.

Classes, libraries, stores, movie theaters, restaurants and even bars (which they only go to for dancing, of

course) are just a short walk or bus ride away from all the residence halls:

Both the Old Capitol Mall and the Pedestrian Mall are within walking distance of most residence halls. Re~i­dents can buy their staple items - such as shampoo, paper and shoes - here. And those students who just have to have the latest Abercrom­bie & Fitch threads can probably spare 75 cents and take a city bus to Coral Ridge Mall.

A large' part of the problem is that residence hall resi-

. dents are using parking areas intended for off-cam­pus drivers, instead of park­ing in the storage lots, which is where these 'students are

registered to keep their cars. Obviously then, one of the

simplest ways to cut do'wn on parking congestion would be to prohibit dorm residents from having cars at the UI. Though it wouldn't com­pletely solve the parking problem, it would free up a lot of spaces.

Until the UI recognizes that on-campus residents don't need cars at school and are only wasting space, the parking situation on campus will remain problematic.

Change is required and it must start somewhere. It might as well be with the stu­dents who break the rules.

Don't let cars. drive you crazy I have a dream ... that one

day all travelers - drivers, walkers, bikers, runners, Rollerbladers, cross-country skiers and unicyclers - will be able to journey together down a road of brother and sister-a ~ hood. Except for

that freak with the [ttl@ cow Jeep. Weirdo.

Iowa City is a pedestrian­rich community. In and around the UI campus propel;", walking is by far the most practical way to get to class. And in theory, all that fresh air should, in theory, make us all much more relaxed.

But recently, I have noticed a new kind of intolerance. It happens when egocentric dri­vers, oblivious to the others with whom they share the streets, assume that the roads are for vehicles alone. And it happens when self-centered walkers, waving their "pedes­trians have the right of way" banner, monopolize the cross­walks and leave drivers stuck in the intersection. Just look at the Iowa Avenue-Clinton Street intersection. And even worse, some pedestrian elit­ists have recently copped a bitter attitude, refusing to accept that there is any decent

reason to drive within the downtown perimeter.

As a hi-transportational individual, I insist that we end the hatred. Can't we all just get along?

Like many others who live off-campus, I require a fair amount of transportational flexibility. I walk when I can. When the weather is wicked, I take the free shuttle. But on those days when I have lots of errands to run in a short frame of time, or when I have night classes that end long after dark, I elect to drive.

Last Friday, for instance, I decided to run some errands. First I went downtown, parked in a metered stall and did my necessary business. And when I returned, I saw that the flier fairy had left lit­tle gifts under the windshield wipers of every car parked on the street. The flier read:

"Yes, we all know, cars burn lots of gas and spew pollutants into the air and parking is impossible to find in Iowa City, (we don't really want down­town to turn into one big ,park­ing ramp, do we?), so we just have to ask:

ness resides . Walking by buildings such as the Old Capitol sparks the imagination and glorifies tra­dition. Sidewalks are wide, sometimes even wide enough to fit four across. Generally, walking downtown is a peaceful experience.

Drive in downtown Iowa City, however, and any sense of peace is eliminated. In place of peace is stress. Besides the hazards of blind intersections and debilitating speed limits is a sense of urgency.

The stress must somehow seep out of university walls and into cars. Or maybe t)te stress seeps out of the streets themselves. Whatever the case, stress is prevalent. And in the middle of the stress -between the cars, university walls and the streets - is parking, the queen of stress in Iowa City.

Iowa City gives plenty of options to a driver looking

The city of Iowa City makes parking a painfully annoying cat-and-mouse game. By switching the legal parking areas on a daily basis for many on-street parking sites, the city can even relish in fool­ish mistakes made by would­be parkers.

Park at a meter and get a ticket, as happened about 95,000 times in fiscal year 1998, and the math could nearly pass you in calculus class. Three dollars for the first three days, then $5 for a while, and then $10. Gain $50 worth of these gems, and a tow truck will happily be called to tow your vehicle ...: for a price, of course.

And most money gained by the city through parking comes directly from the

Parking Services is a dif­ferent version of the same song. Independent of the UI, but somehow still con­nected, parking is an end­less maze. First of all, there is the registration require­ment. Have a certain color, park in certain areas. Blue, green, red, yellow, you decide ... I'm sure they'll find a way to ticket you.

But, of course, money is needed. There are parks and green space to cover with asphalt, ramps to build and vehicles to buy to remove snow and scoot around town to give tickets. And there must be a surplus of income - about $2 million last year, in fact - to plan for future parking spaces. Then steps in the university itself. If the UI

Free bikes are the answer Old, yellow bicycles may be

an answer to the UI's contin­uing problem of lack of park­ing and transportation con-

gestion. In a program

\1@,~ recently insti­tuted at the University of New Hampshire called the Yellow Bike Campaign, stu­dent leaders are providing bicycles free of charge for campus riding. The bikes, donated or purchased from a recycling center for under $10 dollars each, are painted a bright shade of yellow and placed at various buildings around campus. Students are free to take the bikes at anytime for campus riding, and may take them away from campus as long as the bikes are eventually returned.

The implementation cost estimated by UNH officials is between $1,200 and $1,500, which includes pur­chasing the bikes, painting them and providing initial maintenance. The bicycles are older models, which lim­its their appeal to would-be thieves. ·

While such an idea may seem novel at first, at second glance the program may have some important bene· fits to our campus. Other col­leges around the nation have come to the same conclusion and have put similar sys­tems into place.

A Hawkeye-Gold Bike Campaign may be what this campus needs.

Aside from the obvious health benefits of increased bicycle usage, students can

gain mobility without having to wait for buses or hassle with finding parking. The more people bike, the less they drive, which cuts down on traffic and pollution, and frees up parking spaces. Bikes are cheap and can be found in good supply - Iowa City and the UI impound bicycles every year for being illegally locked to fences for too long a period.

There are some drawbacks to the program, namely that it will be underutilized dur­ing the cold winter months when most people don't want to ride bikes. There are also questions about liability and the risk of the bikes being stolen, though UNH has found that students enjoy the Yellow Bike Campaign to such a degree that thefts are

to level any area of parking run by Parking Services at will.

The logic of parking in Iowa City is quite simple. There are more cars than spaces, so make drivers pay and pay dearly. Build too many spaces, and you won't get paid enough. Few activi­ties, if any, can pay so effort­lessly. The result is a situa­tion where no one is happy but both Parking Services and the UI are making out like gangbusters, and a atmosphere of stress exists.

Walk or ride, peace or stress ... you decide.

rare. And unlocked bikes are a staple of life in Amsterdam and other European cities.

With enough student and administration input, these problems can be resolved and the UI could have a progres­sive solution to its traffic problem.

A free campus bike program won't solve all the UI's traffic and parking problems, but it can make a helpful improve· ment. The relative inexpen­siveness of the program puts it within the reach of the UISG and other student groups who wish to make a contribution to the UI.

Old yellow bikes should be added to the UI's list of pub­lic transportation vehicles.

• For Floridians who want to sell their stuff on air, Pax TV is offering them their 15 min­utes of fame.

By lantn Testa Associated Press

WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. -Some of the latest stars on daytime TV aren't soap opera actors or talk show hosts. They're everyday folks with too much junk in their garage.

A husband hawking his wife's Harley. A guy unloading a vintage pinball machine. A kid named "Fast Eddie" pawning his parents' old fur­niture for summer camp money.

All these can be found on Pax TV, the family-oriented network that is selling Floridians 30-second slots of air time that can be used for just about anything: from sell­ing a sofa to singing "Happy Birth­day" to Grandma, all for the cost of a newspaper classified ad.

The half-hour program began a three-week pilot run in the West Palm Beach area Monday. If Pax TV deems it a success, it plans to put it on the air on its 116 broad­cast stations nationwide.

The hope is that a televised garage sale might work as enter­tainment. Think funniest home bloopers meets low-budget infomercials.

"There's something so sweet and so much fun about real people doing commercials," said Steve Sohmer, Pax TV's executive vice president who conceived the idea of the "Pax People TV" program.

Five days of 30-second ads cost $27.50, or $62.50 if the item being sold is worth more than $500.

Ukranian murderer gets death

, penalty • The man who killed 52 people claims he was guided by an unknown dark power.

By Sergei SblrgoroMy Associated Press

KIEV, Ukraine - A Ukrainian who described himself as a robot without feelings was sentenced to death Thursday for murdering 52 people with a sawed-off hunting rifle, knives and axes.

It took a judge nearly two days to read the verdict against Ana­toliy Onoprienko, who said he had been guided by an unknown dark power.

The 39-year-old former sailor, wearing running shoes and an oversized, hooded jacket, sat impassively in an iron cage, his eyes almost never leaving t he floor.

Onoprienko's accomplice in nine ' of the murders, 36-year-old Afghan war veteran Serhiy Rogozin, was sentenced to 13 years in prison.

Onoprienko's murderous spree apparently began in 1989, when he and Rogozin robbed and killed nine people. He resumed his ram­page in 1995-96, killing a total of 43 people in less than six months.

After a manhunt frustrated by the lack of clues and witnesses, he was arrested in April 1996 at his girlfriend's bouse near the Polish border. His trial started in Novem­ber in Zhytomyr, 87 miles west of the capital, Kiev.

Onoprienko has repeatedly con­fessed in police and media inter­

' views to all the killings, which included the slaughter of entire families with small children.

"I've robbed and killed," the small, thin-faced and balding Ono-

' prienko said in a prison interview with Associated Press Television News last week. "But rm a robot, I don't feel anything."

Psychiatrists ruled Onoprienko fit to stand trial in spite of his ramblings about world politics, mysterious revelations, foreign and security services.

Onoprienko might not face exe­cution, because Ukraine has imposed a moratorium on capital punishment and pledged to even­tually ban it. Courts continue to hand down death sentences, but none o( the 146 people sentenced to death 'in 1998 have been execut­ed.

According to the state prosecu­tor in the case, Yuriy lgnatenko, a special parliamentary vote would be required to execute Ono­prienko. President Leonid Kuch­ma has said he is ready to appeal to the Council of Europe to permit the execution.

Nothing political or off-color is allowed.

"This makes television accessi­ble, maybe for the first time, to everyone," Sohmer said.

That was certainly the appeal for retirees Don and Ruth Chenoweth, regular viewers of Pax TV They decided to try to create an ad for their $13,000 double­wide trailer in Lantana, about 70 miles north of Miami.

"Sh e felt like a movie star," Chenoweth said of his wife. The couple got some help from a Pax TV crew in making the commer­cial. "She always wanted to get into advertising, ... but nothing ever panned out. This was her opportunity to be on TV."

That could be as much of the attraction to "Pax People TV" as

the possibility of selling some­thing, said James Twitchell, a Uni­versity of Florida professor who writes about American culture.

"Is this really advertising to sell, or is this advertising as a kind of self-aggrandizement, a type of ... entertainment?" Twitchell said. "For a relatively small sum of money, anyone can be Frank Pur­due .... It's sort of celebrity on the cheap."

• Cuba holds exiles in the United States responsible for the bombings.

IJAIItiSnow Associated Press

HAVANA- A court sentenced to death a second man convicted in a string of tourist hotel bombings that leader Fidel Castro blames on Cuban exiles in the United States, the government said Thursday.

The death sentence comes amid a general toughening by Cuba, which in recent months has said it feels under growing attack by the U.S. government, violent Cuban groups in Miami and domestic political dissidents.

Otto Rene Rodriguez Llerena confessed to the 1997 explosion in the lobby of the upscale Melia Cohiba Hotel, which caused no injuries and very little damage.

r .keep rising By Ralllltlll• Associated Press

NEW YORK - Baseball fans will be paying the price of higher salaries this season, with the average price of a ticket increasing 9. 7 percent, from $l3.59 to $14.91.

The Red Sox, whose Fenway Park is the smallest stadium in the major leagues, are still the most expensive team to see. Boston raised its tickets 16.6 percent to an average of $24.05, according to the. Team Marketing Report, which released its annual study Thursday.

The World Series champion New York Yankees remained second after raising prices 13.8 percent to $23.33. The cost of the best box seats at Yankee Stadium has risen from $25 in 1996 to $50 this season. In addi­tion, the Yankees last year added 60 field-level seats that cost $16,000 per season - $197.53 a game. The price of those seats didn't go up this year.

Seattle, which moves from the Kingdome to Safeco Field on July 15, had the highest increase, a 27.2 per­cent rise to $19.01. The New York Meta raised prices 23.5 percent to an average of $19.98, Philadelphia's prices rose 21.2 percent to $13.60, the Chicago Cubs had a 21.1 percent increase to $17.46 and Texas' prices rose 20.9 percent to $19.93.

Olympic cQaching decision frustrates Gable • The most successful coach in 'college wrestling history was passed over by the committee in charge of selecting a coach for the 2000 U.S. Olympic team.

ByT_,Wirt The Daily Iowan

The 2000 Olympics in Sydney, Australia, could be the perfect event to showcase the sport of wrestling. But when the Americans travel down under, they will be without their most recognizable figure, Dan Gable.

The former Iowa coach was passed over for the head coaching position on the Olympic team, and feels that if he was there, he could help promote the sport he loves. In the past few years, wrestling has been fighting for visibili­ty in the sports world. Gable

"I wasn't disappointed for myself," said Gable, who coached the 1984 Olympic team. "I am disappointed for the sport. I love wrestling. I have a passion for the sport, and the people that have a position of power in this sport are not helping us."

Oklahoma State's John Smith and Lehigh's Greg Strobel will serve as the

coaches for the U.S. team. Gable had proposed a plan where he and Smith would be co-head coaches.

"Right now, there aren't two bigger names in the sport than John Smith and Dan Gable to coach the sport and give us visibility," Gable said. "That would really help with the problems we are having."

Former Iowa wrestler and current Hawkeye assistant coach Terry Brands, who is the leading candidate for the 58 kg (127.75 pounds) spot, agrees.

"This could have been huge with Gable and Smith in there," Brands said. "Gable had a really good plan going in for promotional things, and we need that. This sport is in a lot of trouble, and it needs the exposure of a Dan Gable."

Some of the problems wrestling faces stem from the gender-equity leg­islation known as Title IX, which requires colleges to give equal scholar­ship opportunities to men's and women's sports.

Instead of adding women's pro­grams, many institutions have simply cut men's programs like wrestling. Thursday, New Mexico and Brigham Young University dropped their

wrestling programs to comply with Title IX.

"It's really hard to move ahead when you are fighting battles that have nothing to do with your particu­lar sport, like reaching equal numbers and making the ratio of men and women in sports equal," Gable said. "We're a sport that sticks out like a sore thumb, and that makes it easier to cut back on it. You can only cut back so far before you become an endan­gered species."

N'artkees presetve the dynasty The defending champions added more firepower to their nucleus

BY Josh Dubow Associated Press

TAMPA, Fla. - The plan seemed so simple in November. Keep the 1998 New York Yankees intact for another season.

Why tinker with a formula that created a record 125 wins, capped by a World Series sweep against the San Diego Padres?

So in five frenzied weeks after Scott Brosius threw out Mark Sweeney to end the Series, George Steinbrenner spent $114.26 million to bring back Brosius, David Cone, Joe Girardi and, most importantly, Bernie Williams.

Spring training had barely opened when the Yankees decided that was­n't enough. Roger Clemens was available and the Yankees had to have him. Out went fan favorite and Mr. Perfect, David Wells. In came Clemens, the five-time Cy Young Award winner and most dominating pitcher in the league. The message was forcefully sent to the Yankees players and the competition in the American League: New York would not rest.

"The trophy we won last year has got rust on it now," general manager Brian Cashman said. "Everybody is gearing up to take the championship away. Baltimore's better, Cleveland's better. We had to get better."

That's the trademark of a dynasty

- improve no matter what changes lie ahead. The 1939 Yankees over­came the loss of Lou Gehrig to win their fourth straight World Series championship. In 1952, the Yankees won their fourth straight again, this time the year after Joe DiMaggio retired.

The Yankees will have to make their own adjustments this season. It will be Clemens, not Wells, throwing the first pitch for the Yankees in the season opener April 6 in Oakland. And it will be Don Zimmer, not Joe 'Ibrre, bringing out the lineup card.

These Yankees know that history

By Greg Wallace The Daily Iowan

As if going on its first Big Ten road trip ofthe year with a 1-3 record was­n't enough of a challenge for the Iowa baseball team, it now appears that the Hawkeyes might have to do it without one of their leaders.

Senior second baseman Brian Mitchell suffered a strained left ham­string in the ninth inning of Wednesday's victory over Grand View, and he is questionable for this week­end's four·game set at East Lansing against Michigan State. Team spokesperson Kristy Fick said Mitchell's status is "day-to-day."

If Mitchell is gone for an extended period of time, it could be costly for the Hawkeyes. He leads the team in runs batted in, and is currently bat­ting .333 after a 3-for-6 performance Wednesday.

The Hawkeyes (11-13 overall) will be looking to rebound from a poor Big Ten start against the Spartans (10-11, 0-4 Big Ten). Pitching will be key for the team, and Wes Obermueller will start today.

"We've got to have some pitching," Iowa coach Scott Broghamer said. "If you don't pitch well, you're in trouble. We need to start on the hill and we need to play behind that."

"I think pitching is coming along," Obermueller said. "We're still learn­ing, even though it's a ways into the season. Every day's a new experience and everyone's learning. n

Hitting hasn't been a problem for the Hawkeyes, however. The team has averaged 13 runs and 17 hits in

Men's basketball players get first taste of life with new staff • Hawkeye assistant coaches Sam Alford and Greg Lansing held short workout sessions with players Thursday afternoon at Carver-Hawkeye Arena.'

lylllpnMinfll The Daily Iowan

In Steve Alford's first scheduled workout with his new Iowa basketball team, the coach couldn't attend.

From 1-4 p.m. on Thursday, players were allowed to practice at Carver­Hawkeye Arena with their new coach­ing staff. However, Alford and Iowa assistant Rich Walker were on the road recruiting, so assistant coaches Sam Alford and Greg Lansing ran the drills.

"It was a lot like I expected it would be," senior-to-be Ryan Luehrsmann said. "They don't believe in wasting time. You're constantly going from one drill to another, and the only time you get to rest is when you're on the free-throw line. n •

Guards Kyle Galloway (sophomore) and Dean Oliver Gunior) worked out with Sam Alford for the first hour, while senior Jacob Jaacks and junior Marcelo Gomes worked in the paint with Lansing.

Luehrsmann, senior Jason Price and eophomores Rod Thompson and Duez Henderson practiced during the second hour with both coaches.

'' Joey Range were also at Carver, but did not work out.

"After getting to the Sweet Sixteen, everyone's got a taste of where we could be and everyone's been excited to get back into the gym," Oliver ~aid. "The guys are excited to go further."

The drills covered nearly all areas, and 2-on-2 games were held to tie everything together.

The coaches are trying to familiarize themselves with the team while attempting to land recruits before the signing period ends. Sam Alford is expected to leave for recruiting pur­poses this morning.

The paperwork has not gone through on Lansing's contract, so the former Indiana State assistant is not· allowed to recruit. However, he can work out with the current players.

"I played against one of Lansing's teams in high school when he was at Des Moines Roosevelt," Luehrsmann said. "He's a good guy. He fits the mold of this staff - he's hungry and he's happy to be a Hawkeye."

Following NCAA rules, the coaches plan to run drills with the players twice a week during the spring.

"After a while, we're supposed to catch on to their workouts and I think they expect us to start coming in on our own during the off days and be self-motivated," Luehrsmann said.

Transferring. was an initial issue for a number of Iowa players, but every­one is staying at Iowa with Alford at this point.

Oliver admitted he had been think­ing about other schools during the past season, but says he is happy with the Alford hiring.

"I never went so far as to call other schools," Oliver said. "Once the season ended, I realized I had put too much into this team, my teammates and Coach Walker, because I figured he'd be staying."

Gable not sure why he was snubbed by search commiHee GABLE Continued from Page lB

was made to keep him out of the

coaching chair. A seven-person

USA Wrestling selection commit­tee makes a recommendation to an executive committee, which makes the final decision.

"The real story will come out ~n the near future," Gable said.

"There's a lot of rumblings and hearsay going around, but until I have someone with all the credibil­ity tell me what happened, it's just speculating."

The 1984 team led by Gaple won

seven of a possible 10 gold medals. That year, the powerful Soviet Union team did not participate in the Olympics.

its last three contests. "We're swmgmg the bats

extremely well," Broghamer said. "we're playing a lot of young peo­ple, and they're doing a good job, so that's something that we have to continue to do." . Michigan State will be eager to

play, as well. The team was swept in its first Big Ten series last week­end at lllinois.

The Spartans are led by left fielder Mike Pasini, who's batting a team-high .378, as well as presea­son All-Big Ten catcher Joe Kalczynski. The Spartans' pitching is mediocre; their top starter, Scott Brandel!, sports a 2-2 record and an ERA of nearly 6.00. Still,

Broghamer is not overlooking his team's next opponent.

"They're gonna come at us, hook, line, and sinker, ready to play," Broghamer said. "They're going to be at home, so we're going to have to go there ready to play, or they'll come right back at us."

Iowa's players know that a poor performance this weekend would put them in a hole heading into

next weekend's home series against Minnesota. So they're gun­ning for a series win this weekend.

"We want to at least get back to even in the Big Ten," Obermueller said. "It'd be nice to sweep, but it's tough to play on the road in the Big Ten, so we need to do what we're capable of doing."

Yankees loaded with talent from top to bottom . DYNASTY ContinU£d from Page JB

iB calling and they won't let the changes serve as an excuse. Many teams have won two World Series with the same group, few have won three. In fact, only five teams have won three in four years, a mark the Yankees hope to reach this season.

"We have a chance to finish out the '90s on a little bit of a run," said Cone, the unofficial spokesman in the Yankees club­house. "Two definitely doesn't mean a dynasty. This year could definitely mean something if we do it again. That would make a mark."

Th reach that, the Yankees have put together a record $88 million payroll. And they might have to play as long as three months with­out 'lbrre, who is recovering from prostate cancer surgery. The man who delicately kept three left field­ers happy, who provided the strongest buffer ever between the bombastic Steinbrennpr and the players, and who molded 25 per­sonalities into the most harmo­nious clubhouse in baseball will be missed.

When the game starts, t he Yankees can almost run on autopi­lot. This is a team that made the

fewest pitching changes last sea­son, rarely pinch hits and outscored its opponents by 309 runs - the biggest discrepancy in 59 years - leaving few controver­sial decisions during the game.

Thrre's strength is defining the roles of his players, communicating to them and keeping them happy, no matter how much they were playing.

"You can have stars and players that make a lot of money, but you still have to fit the pieces right," Thrre said.

Thrre's skill in fitting three vet­erans into left field was emblemat­ic of the team-first attitude the Yankees had last season. Darryl Strawberry, Chad Curtis and Tim Raines all remained happy despite all spending more tim~ on the bench than they wanted to.

Zimmer's first test will come at the same position, with Curtis and Strawberry battling rookies Ricky Ledee and Shane Spencer for play­ing time. Already Strawberry com­plained that he "doesn't know who is running what" as he fights for a roster spot in his return from colon cancer surgery.

"I thought I made it pretty defi­nite t he first time I addresaed the whole club who was running it," said Zimmer, who last managed in

1991 with the Chicago Cubs. "I've had talks with him and I assumed then he knew who was running it."

That controversy appears to have ironed itself out, at least tem­porarily. But the real test comes on opening day, when Zimmer must decide who to start in left, what to do with Strawberry and how to handle Andy Pettitte's sore elbow.

Most of the other roster deci­sions and positions are defined. Clemens and Cone, Pettitte, Orlando "El Duque" Hernandez and Hideki Irabu form the deepest rotation in baseball. Ramiro Mendoza, a second or third starter on many teams, is ready to step out of the bullpen when necessary. Otherwise, he helps Jeff Nelson and Mike Stanton set up Mariano Rivera.

The lineup that scored the most runs in baseball last season could be even better in 1999. Only Scott Brosius had a career year, and with Chili Davis healthy, Chuck Knoblauch comfortable and Jorge Posada getting more playing time, the Yankees should be even more powerful.

"We have the best team, but that doesn't mean we will win," Zimmer said. "A lot of teams that were the best didn't win it. We have a great club, but we have to play great if

we want to win again." Keeping· baseb~ll's most self­

motivated team motivated should­n't be the challenge for Zimmer and Thrre. But keeping the expec­tations on the field aQd out of the history books will.

"We have to make sure we're not in competition with ourselves," 'lbrre said. "We have to make sure we're in competition with the corn­petition. Our priority is when we look up, we're in first place ... and the record doesn't take over."

The Yankees could lead the majors in victories, win the AL East by double digits and make the playoffa for the fifth straight year and that still might not be enough. After adding Clemens to a team that set an AL record with 114 wins, the bar has been raised -fairly or unfairly - to never before seen heights.

That's the price that comes with success, a record payroll and the unmatched pressure of playing for Steinbrenner in New York. And the Yankees know it.

"You've got to win," shortstop Derek Jeter said. "That's the bot· tom line."

Baseball costly to watch, but still cheaper than NFL or NBA BASEBALL TICKETS Continued from Page lB

percent increase to $8.46. Montreal, which decreased its

average price 6 percent to $9.38, was 29th and Cincinnati was 28th at $9.71 after a 16 percent increase.

In addition to the Expos, two other teams lowered their average prices, with Oakland going down 4.5 percent to $10.10 and Tampa Bay going down 3.1 percent to

J.

$15.08. Baseball:s average ticket price

has gone up 42.6 percent since the 1994 strike, when it was $10.45. The average has increased 72.6 percent from 1991, when TMR began its annual studies.

In comparison, the Consumer Price Index has gone up 1.0 per­cent in the last year, 12.1 percent since 1994 and 18.7 percent since 1991.

Despite the increases, baseball tickets remain far cheaper than seats for the other major U.S.

sports. NFL ticket prices rose 4. 7 percent last season to $42.86, NBA prices went up 3.4 percent this sea. son to $42.54 and NHL prices went up 2.5 percent to $42.79.

NFL tickets have increased 70 percent since 1991 and NBA tick­ets ha,ve gone up 83 percent since the 1991-92 season. TMR's NHL studies go back only to 1994-95.

The Fan Cost Index, which includes two average-price tickets, two average-price child tickets, four amall soft drinks, two small beers, four hot dogs, parking, two

programs and two adult caps, increased 6.8 percent to $121.36. The Yankees remained No. 1 in the index at $166.84, followed by

Boston ($160.21) and the Mets ($154.58).

Montreal had the lowest index at $87.87, with Oakland 29th at $92.78 and Milwaukee 28th at $95.81.

Cubs sign Nomo to Triple-A contract

By IMcy Annour Associated Press

PHOENIX, Ariz . - Hideo Nomo, who went from NL Rookie of the Year in 1995 to the waiver wire this spring signed a minor league contract with the Chicago Cubs today

Nomo, 30, will start the sea­son with the Cubs' Triple A team in Iowa.

The right-hander starred in Japan before joining the Los Angeles Dodgers in 1995. He won 45 games in Los Angeles but struggled last season and was traded to the New York Mets in June. lie went 4-5 with a 4.82 ERA in 17 games with New York and was ineffective this spring, going 0-2 with a 7.62 ERA in four appearances.

The Mets gave up on Nomo on March 24, sending him outright to Triple-A Norfolk and then putting him on unconditional release waivers two days later. He became a free agent 'fuesday.

"I'm kind of excited about it," Mark Grace said. "If he's healthy, the guy is a dominant pitcher. Having faced him, I know how dominating a pitch· er he can be."

Noma, who received $719 262 termination pay from the Mets instead of a $2,925,000 salary, will make a base salary of $800,000 if he is added to the Cubs' major league roster, with an additional $2 million in incentives possible.

After an extended spring training, he will make three or four starts in Iowa. After that the Cubs must either put him o~ the major league roster or give him his unconditional release.

Nomo is 49-41 with a 3.66 ERA in four seasons with Los Angeles and the New York Mets.

~ . ~ Waldorf ties course record, leads BeiiSouth 3 I Duffy Waldorf shot 9-

under-par during the first round of the BeiiSouth Classic to take the lead and tie a course record.

By Paul • ..,., Associated Press

! DULUTH, Ga. - Duffy Waldorf 1 stepped in front of the David Duval I express, equaling a course record

with a 9-under-par 63 Thursday to grab the lead after the first round of the BellSouth Classic.

Duval, the world's hottest player, was only three shots off the pace after a soggy day at the TPC at Sug· arloaf course north of Atlanta, site ofthe final tune-up for the Masters.

Waldorf, needing a victory to qualify for his flfth appearance at Augusta National, was planning to spend next week with his wife and four children, enjoying some time away from the course. However he's willing to reconsider. '

"You're always looking for a way to get back in," said Waldorf, who last played at Augusta two years ago and finished fifth in 1996. "I have a good dlance this week. I'm happy to at least be in the ballgame."

Waldorf tied the course record set a year ago by Tiger Woods,

whose third-round 63 carried him to a one-shot victory over Jay Don Blake. Woods did not return this year to defend his title.

The start was delayed two hours by fog, the remnant of severe storms that soaked the 7,259-yard course the previous day. The soft wet conditions prevented the play: ers from getting a taste of the icy greens they'll face next week at Augusta, but most seemed relieved to escape the brutal set-up that sur­rendered only two below-par scores in The Players Championship.

"It wa8 nice to get out and make a couple of birdies after last week " said Waldorf, who put together rur;e birdies on the 7,259-yard course

He W!lS one shot ahead of New Zealander Grant Waite and two in front of South African Rory Sabba­tini. But all eyes were on Duval lurking among a group of playe~ with a 6-under 66.

The 27-year-old, who played col­lege golf at nearby Georgia Tech, has supplanted Woods as the game's most dominant player, already1 winning three tourna­ments - including the Players -and more than $2.1 million in the first three months of the year.

"This round shows the quality of a guy like David," Waite said. "Last week was brutally difficult, then he comes right out of that

SPORTS A MISSOURI LEGEND

Stewart out at Missouri .

after 32 seasons • Missouri head basketball coach Norm Stewart, 64, resigned Thursday.

By R.B. Fallstram Associated Press

COLUMBIA, Mo. - Norm Stew­art left Thursday after 32 seasons as Missouri basketball coach, and insisted it was his idea.

Stewart, 64, said the inspiration came during a game at Kansas in January and a familiar chant from JayhawkB fans, "Sit down, Norm!" took on a different meaning.

"I said to myself that day? 'I think I will,'" said Stewart., who will serve the final four years of his contract as a special assistant to the school's chancellor.

Athletic director Mike Alden, who has been at the school only eight months, said he didn't push Stew­art out, as had been speculated. Alden said he was "shocked" when

' the coach brought it up for the first time March 15 during what he thought would be a typical end-of­season review. He said Stewart reit­erated his desire to retire from coaching the following day.

"1 asked him , are you sure?" Alden said. "He said he had decid­ed what he wanted to do."

James A. Finley/Associated Press

University of Missouri head basketball coach Norm Stewart gestures Thursday during a news conference In Columbia, Mo.

Then again, players were shocked Wednesday when Stewart broke the news to them.

"I was getting ready for class and my mom called me and she was like 'Tell me the scoop, tell me the scoop,' " sophomore forward Johnnie Parker said.

Presumably, Stewart had earned the right to orchestrate his depar­ture. He leaves with an impressive rt:sumt:, at least from a numerical standpoint.

- He's the third-winningest active coach with 731 victories, trailing only James Phelan of Mount St. Mary's (800) and Bob Knight of Indiana (742), and he's eighth on the career list.

- He averaged 19 victories a sea­son at Missouri, and as player, assis­tant coach and coach was involved in

more than half (1,127) of the 2,151 games ever played at the school

- He produced eight conference championships and led his 16th team to the NCAA tournament this season with a 20-9 record.

- He weathered colon cancer in 1989 and NCAA probation in 1991 during his tenure.

Stewart leaves the program in good shape, with three starters back and two others with signifi­cant experience. That's a big change from his arrival in 1967, when Mis­souri bad totaled six victories in 49 games the previous two seasons.

"When I got here there wasn't much springboard," Stewart said. "There wasn't any pool, there was­n't any water. If you jumped in, you had problems. There's a better springboard now."

Harrlck changes mind second time, takes Georgia Job after all

ATHENS, Ga. (AP)- Basketball coach Jim .Harrick has once again changed his mind, deciding after a day of back-and-forth to accept the job as Georgia's basketball coach, university president Michael Adams said Thursday night.

On Wednesday, Harrick accepted the head job at Georgia, only to annouce Thursday morning that he had changed his mind and would remain at Rhode Island.

Harrick called Georgia president Michael F. Adams, a close friend, Thursday morning and said that he had had a change of heart. Associate athletics director Dick Bestwick and Adams met with Harrick for an hour trying to talk him out of returning to Rhode Island, but by Thursday afternoon, he told them his deci­sion was final.

That decision changed sometime between Thursday afternoon and evening.

Adams said Harrick had a second change of heart at about 5:30 p.m.

"I've always been a true believer in what happens, happens for the best." Georgia ath· letics director Vince Dooley said.

Dooley said the reason for Harrick's back· and-forth was family-related.

protested when the NFL made him Jefrain from drinking, now is making a conscious effort to abstain from alcohol.

The three-time NFL MVP said in an inter­view with the Green Bay Press-Gazette pub­lished today that the decision was based on reasons that were both personal and profes­sional.

The Packers' quarterback underwent reha· bilitalion for an addiction to painkillers three years ago. Afterwards, he complained that It was unfair that the NFL had banned him from drinking as part of its rehabilitation program.

But he said his decision to quit drinking isn't related to that, but to a desire to have a long and productive career and to be a good family man.

DRAKE RD.AYS

Scott still chasing sub4 .. minute mile • Steve Scott will look to become the oldest man to run a sub-4-minute mile at the Drake Relays later this month.

By Clllck ScllaffMr Associated Press

DES MOINES - Steve Scott already has run more sub-4-minute miles than anyone in histo­ry. His goal now is to become the oldest runner to do it.

Scott, who'll be 43 May 6, will make the attempt April 24 at the Drake Relays - 20 years after becoming the first to break the 4-minute barrier in an open mile at Drake.

"I don't know if it will produce the same results as 20 years ago," Scott said Thursday. "But it will be exciting for the people to revisit that day."

Scott has broken the 4-minute barrier 136 times, including eight races under 3:50, and has a best time of 3:47.69, run in 1982. He ran his last sub·4 in 1994 at 38.

The world record for the outdoor mile in the 40-and-over division is 4:02.63 by Britain's David Moor­croft in 1993. The fastest mile ever run by a 40-plus athlete is 3:58.16 by Ireland's Eamonn Coghlan at an indoor meet at Boston in 1994.

Moorcroft was 40 when he set his record, Coghlan was 41.

"Physically and mentally I feel like I'm capable," said Scott, who lives and trains in Encinitas, Calif. "I've seen in some workouts I've done that it's within reach.

NBA ROUNDUP

Drake Relays to sport brand new track DES MOINES {AP) - A fast. new

polyurethane track awaits the 7,000 athletes competing in this year's Drake Relays.

Installation of tne track and sobsurface was finished last fall, and the lane lines have been applied lor lhe 90th Drake Relays oo Apri123-24.

•A number of our athletes have run on n and ... it's a forgiving track,· said lynn King, Drake's athletic director. ·~'s not a hard track, but It also gives back on steps.

"It will bode well for distance and middle­distance runners, yet It's not such a soft track that sprinters won1 get good times on it. I think it's going to be a very fast track."

"But as I get closer to it and get into intense training, I get injuries. The physiological standpoint has been my downfall. Now I'm under­standing why no one this age has been able to break four minutes. It's very bard training for a mile."

Scott was slowed by testicular cancer in 1994.

Breaking 4 minutes in a mile requires the speed of an 800-meter runner and the strength of a 5,000-meter runner, Scott said. It's the speed work that's causing him problems.

"I'd get a slight muscle pull in my calf, then I'd have to lay off for a while," he said. "Then when you come back, you've lost your condi· tioning."

Scott ran a 6,000-meter at Carls­bad, Calif., last weekend in 14:30. He figured that would equate to a 4 :07 or 4:06 mile, which was encouraging.

Torrential rain last summer caused part of the old track and subsurface to buckle, prompting Drake to speed up plans for installing a track.

Meanwhile, Bob Ehrhart, the relay's direc­tor, said this year's 6'Jent has attracted a large array of cOlleges and uni\'ersities.

"We'll have more schools than ever: Ehrhart said. "And with good geographical representation:

"Hopefully I can make up a cou­ple of seconds here or there and maybe the crowd will help me knock off a couple of more," he said.

A sellout crowd of 18,000 is expect­ed. Drake Relays fans are known for their boisterous encouragement of runners, and Scott will be one of the meet's prime attractions.

"My biggest challenge will be not to feel the pressure that I have to do it," he said.

Scott's competition will include another crowd favorite, Paul McMullen, who won the mile at Drake last year in 3:59.12.

Scott figures the better the com­petition, the better the time.

"Being out in front and basically running for time bas never been my forte," Scott said. "When the race is competitive and you're just running to win, that's when I have my best times."
