Overspending unfair,ASUM candidates say

AlthoughASUMPresidentAaron Flintsaid that by breaking the campaignspending limit he would ultimatelyhelp students, some of his opponentsin the senate race feel he’d be doing adisservice to them and to ASUM.

Flint, who is a candidate in the2004-2005 senate race, said earlierthis week that he plans to break the$100 campaign-spending limit, even ifit means being kicked out of the race.He also said he plans on suing theUniversity of Montana if he isremoved from the ballot for breakingthe rules.

But other candidates feel the spend-ing limit doesn’t hold them back andshould be respected.

“The limit’s great. For all I care, itcould be less,” said Kimberly Pappas,a senator who’s up for re-election.“I’ve spent like $1.10 so far.”

Pappas is running on the progres-sive ticket and splitting her $100 limitwith eight other candidates.

Jon Snodgrass, a junior who is alsorunning, agrees that candidates cancampaign effectively by spending wellunder the limit.

“I don’t even understand what youcan spend over $100 on in a studentcampaign,” Snodgrass said.

ASUM elections committee chair-man Kyle Engelson said students gen-erally don’t spend $100.

“People generally don’t even spendhow much they’re allowed to spend,”he said. “Most people spend aroundhalf.”

Flint declined to comment aboutwhat he might overspend on, but hesaid it’s a very strong possibility thathe will break the $100 limit.

“I definitely think there’s a possibil-ity of going over. But even if I do goover, I plan on also going through anyappeals process that Dr. Aronofsky(UM’s legal counsel) would suggest,”Flint said.

Engelson said that before the elec-tions process started, the committeeheard rumors about possible over-spending and decided that any candi-date who breaks the spending limitwould be kicked out of the election.

Aronofsky said earlier this weekthat the University would have a goodcase to defend itself, should Flintdecide to sue.

Casey Gierke, another of the 30senator candidates, said he’s not sureFlint should be reprimanded by theelections committee.

“Honestly, I’m fairly apathetictowards it. I feel like he can do whathe wants,” Gierke said. “But I hopethe people voting will look at him andsee that he’s just breaking the law. Ithink the punishment should come justfrom the ballot. It’s kind of givingASUM Senate an image that itshouldn’t have. It should be more of apolitical body than one that deals withmonetary issues.”

Flint said he understands the candi-dates’ concerns, but feels that bybreaking the spending limit, he’sexpressing his belief that there shouldbe no limit.

But while candidates likeSnodgrass don’t think Flint’s over-spending would have a substantialimpact on the campaign, he doesn’tthink it’s fair to the other candidates.

“There are a lot of students whoaren’t getting donations. They’re run-ning just off of their own budget,” hesaid.

Gierke is one of those candidates,and he thinks the limit helps studentshave equality in an election, regard-less of whether one candidate hasmore money than the others.

“I don’t have any money to throwaround on a campaign, so it does keepit kind of level,” he said.

But Flint said that by saying thathis overspending would be unfair, hisfellow candidates are encouraging anASUM subsidy that reimburses eachcandidate about $50 for campaignexpenses, if that much is spent. Hewould support an increase in the sub-

Israeli-Palestinian social justice and peace activist Mary Abu-Saba speaks Thursday night at Christ the KingChurch. Today Abu-Saba will deliver a speech called “Weaving Social Justice Activism into the Fabric ofLife: A Psychologist’s Loom.” It will be at 2:30 p.m. in room 138 in the Liberal Arts building. SEE STORY ONPAGE 4.

Universityof Montanaofficials fol-lowed proce-dures andprovided as much service to an earlyMarch rape victim as they could,despite a letter from the rape victim’smother claiming otherwise, adminis-trators said Thursday.

At a meeting Thursday morningthe vice president of Student Affairs,UM Legal Counsel, representativesfrom Curry Health Center, ResidenceLife, Public Safety and other offi-cials discussed the time line ofevents that occurred after a 21-year-old UM student was kidnapped andraped when she offered her attackera ride to his supposedly broken-down vehicle on Saturday, March 6,

reports indicatedIn the letter that was sent to

University administrators on March12, her mother accuses Public Safetyof neglecting to inform students ofthe safety concern after the incident.Information and a composite sketchwere released to local media onMonday, March 8, two days later.The mother wrote that this wasn’tsoon enough.

“This is inexcusable negligenceand has the appearance of anattempted cover up. You put the rep-utation of your school before thesafety of your students,” the letterread.

At Thursday’s meeting, Capt. JimLemcke, assistant director of PublicSafety, said because the rape and thekidnapping happened outside of theUniversity’s jurisdiction, there wasnothing that could be done by PublicSafety besides informing the victim

of the University’s counseling serv-ices.

Lemcke said University officialsdidn’t want to damage the SheriffOffice’s investigation and PublicSafety officers only met briefly withthe victim on the day of the incident.

“I can’t think of anything that wasmissed,” he said. “We’re at themercy of someone else.”

Ron Brunell, director of ResidenceLife, said he was notified at 1:30p.m. on March 6 of the incident, andthe staff in the victim’s residencehall was put on alert the next day.

“I know everyone in this roomwould have moved mountains tohelp this victim,” Brunell said, butthe Missoula County Sheriff’s Officehad to be given room for its investi-gation.

The opinion editor of the MontanaState University school newspaper, theExponent, has accused the paper’s edi-tor-in-chief of unethical dealings withthe MSU student body president aswell as lying and violating the public’srights.

Opinions editor Tim Adams, a jun-ior majoring in justice studies, said theeditor-in-chief, Jacob Becker, and thestudent government president, ScottMcCarthy, have worked together topromote themselves and censor publicinformation through the newspaper.McCarthy is also the president of theMontana Associated Students. Adamsbrought these accusations to theASMSU senate last week, but the sen-ate voted 10-1 not to discuss the issue.

Adams said Becker and McCarthyare avoiding an examination of theiractions.

“If they look at their actions, they’llknow they’re guilty,” he said.

Adams said Becker has passed offletters and editorials written byMcCarthy as the opinions of others, letMcCarthy look at articles before theywere printed and used the paper topromote his own ASMSU presidentialcampaign, among other things.

A newspaper editor running for apolitical position is wrong in itself,Adams said.

“It’s a blatant conflict of interests,”he said. “It’s obvious the person run-ning the paper shouldn’t be runningfor office.”

Adams obtained copies of e-mailsbetween McCarthy and Becker. Oneof the e-mails from McCarthy wasabout an article that Adams saysMcCarthy wrote, but was edited byBecker and had Becker’s name on thebyline. A line from the e-mail read:“We need to keep my fingerprints offthis, so do your best to make peoplethink it is yours.”

Becker said McCarthy only helpedhim with the story.

“He provided me with the informa-

tion to do the story on,” he said. “Butit was my story.”

McCarthy claims that Adamsobtained the e-mails illegally. Adams,however, said since Becker is a publicofficial using public computers, thosee-mails are public information.

“I don’t see any problem with open-ing (his e-mail account) and neitherdoes the law,” Adams said.

Becker said he would have freelyreleased that information if Adamswould have asked.

“There are proper ways of obtaininginformation, but he stepped over theline,” Becker said.

McCarthy denies any wrongdoingand said the improper behavior was onthe part of Adams.

“What (Adams) obtained was in noway illegal or immoral,” McCarthysaid about the e-mails. “What wasimmoral was how he obtained it.”

McCarthy said Adams’ actions weremotivated by a personal vendetta.

“It was a vendetta against Mr.Becker in hopes of preventing him

from becoming president,” McCarthysaid.

Becker lost the presidential race to atandem that includes current ASMSUpro-temp senator and president of thesenate, Lauren Krnavek. Krnavek, thevice president of the winning presiden-tial team, said she couldn’t voice heropinion when the senate was consider-ing the issue because her job requiresher to be neutral.

She did say, however, that shethinks the e-mails are very question-able, but showed nothing illegal, onlyimmoral.

“Did I think things were sketchy?Yeah,” she said. “But were any bylawsbroken? No.”

Krnavek said the senate could havedone a better job considering the issue.

“My view of how the senate han-dled the situation — I definitely was-n’t impressed,” she said.

Adams said he and other Exponentstaff members didn’t get a chance tospeak in front of the senate after theyreviewed his package of grievances

and e-mails. He said the senate abrupt-ly adjourned its meeting beforeExponent staff members spoke.

Sen. Kala French, a freshman inpolitical science and business manage-ment at MSU, said the senateadjourned the meeting early for threereasons: there were questions abouthow the e-mails were obtained, it wasa newspaper-personnel issue and therewas really nothing the senate could dobecause no bylaws were broken.

“The violation of privacy thatoccurred with the e-mail was extreme-ly alarming,” she said.

French said this issue has causedheated debate within both theExponent and the senate.

“There’s a lot of yelling andscreaming going on,” she said.

She believes this event has forcedthe senate to intensely examine therelationship between ASMSU and theExponent, as well as the Exponent’srole on campus. One issue French said

Regents’ decision didn’tsilence MontPIRG

I am writing in response to sev-eral recent letters to the editorabout the Board of Regent’s deci-sion to end the voluntary fee poli-cy. If you haven’t heard both sidesof the story and just happen tocome across one of these letters itwould seem like the Regents haddone everything evil imaginable toMontPIRG, except kidnap their lit-tle sisters.

Well, I am here to set the recordstraight. The University has collect-ed MontPIRG’s membership duesfor more than 20 years, by allowingthem to have students sign a cardand have the $3 “fee” placed ontheir tuition bill. The Regents put astop to that. What they did wasensure that no political specialinterest group could use theUniversity as its collection agent.They didn’t silence anything. Theydidn’t strip any rights away. Theysimply said if a group wants toraise money from students thatgroup has to collect the money –The University will no longer dothat. I for one don’t think that istoo much to ask.

Also in these letters I have seen,“despite overwhelming studentsupport,” the Regents still endedthis policy. Well, I don’t know if Iwould call ten people speaking in

front of the Regents “overwhelm-ing,” but I do know that there werealso students at that meeting argu-ing for the Regents to end this poli-cy. I know this because I was oneof them and I helped organize thestudent effort to put an end to thispolicy. I led this effort because it isthe right thing to do. TheUniversity has no business collect-ing fees for an extreme environ-mental group like MontPIRG orany other political special interestgroup.

Speak up; tell the Regents what agood job they did! E-mailChairman John Mercer:

Regents took students’choices away

The United States is a land ofchoice. Soup or salad? Chocolateor vanilla? Americans have theright to voice their choices. Twoweeks ago at the Board of Regentsmeeting in Dillon, however, theRegents decided that studentsshould have fewer choices whenthey abolished the voluntary feepolicy. Students who chose to sup-port organizations by voluntarilybecoming members will no longerhave that option; their rights havebeen eliminated.

The regents are stifling students’voices by taking away their right tosupport any organization theychoose. There is no choice of soup

or salad; you can’t choose one orthe other. Instead, the Regents aresaying that students are going to bestuck with cole slaw and if theydon’t like it, tough. I say, give meback my soup or salad. Bring backvoluntary fees and give students theright to get involved on campuswith the issues and activities theychoose.

Our voices have been quietedand we will not stand for that. Wewill not stand for mandatory coleslaw.

You all did so well for so long — but you have aban-doned me.

The previous two “Ask Adams” were made solelyusing readers’ questions. But for the past two weeks,I’ve been longingly searching the e-mail inbox forquestions that never come. While you all were gyratingand groping each other at foam parties down in Puerto,San Lucas or wherever, I had my eyes focused on e-mail subject lines: Stay harder longer, Xanax supersav-ings, girls with squirrels.

“Please, just once have ‘Ask Adam’ as the subject,” Icried at night into my tear-stained pillow.

There is only so much I can handle. I am just a man,people. I am just a man.

Luckily, due to your slack-ass ways, I have come upwith an ingenious concept for today’s column. “If read-ers don’t ask me questions,” I thought, “why don’t Iask myself questions?”

Where did I come up with this astute, imaginative,narcissistic and outright fantastical idea? All I can sayis that I think outside the box, people. I go sans-boxstyle. It took me many years of training to shed thebox, a lot of grabbing pebbles from my master’s hand.There were a lot of in’s, a lot of out’s, a lot of what-have-you’s, but I did it. And this is the fruit of mylabor.

Enjoy me and all of my glorious me-ness.

Q: Adam, your photo is so sexy. Would you con-sider going to the prom with me?

— Adam Coquetta

A: Whoa, this is totally unexpected. What would Iwear? Everything I own is so Christina Aguilera, but Iwant to be more Jessica Simpson. She is so hot rightnow.

What would this prom fling entail, Adam? A side ofbraised squid at Perugia, perhaps? A slow, sensualdance to the Righteous Brothers’ “UnchainedMelody?” Your hand gently caressing my face as yougo in for that deep, sloppy kiss, which inevitably leadsto a night of passion unequaled by any “Days of OurLives” episode.

I know that’s what you’re after, Adam, but you can’thave it. You’re probably a gorgeous, lovely person, butI’m engaged to a wonderful girl. I don’t think shewould appreciate my going to the prom with myself.

However, there are other ways that we can have funtogether — ways that are unfit for our readers to know,my dear self. Let’s be secretive. Let’s be unabashed.

Let’s be Adam.(Note: I can’t believe I wrote the above passage. I

am as thoroughly creeped out as you are.)

Q: Adam, here a question. I not smart person, butmattress tags have tags on them with the warningtags. Does it break police law to untag the tag?

— Adam Dolt

A: Good question. This is one that has floated in theback of my mind for some time. And now it’s time toquash the rumors worldwide.

If you’ve got a mattress, rip away. Take that tag,bake it in a pie and eat it with a side of taters. Use it tosoak up your blood after a good old hit-and-run acci-dent. Run over it with your mo-ped during a daily tripto Scooterville. It doesn’t matter. If you own the mat-tress you can defile the tag as you would like, and ifyou had read your tag you would know why.

The warning label says that ripping off the tag is notillegal if you are the consumer. The tag warns mattressdistributors to not remove the tags because tags indi-cate that a mattress is made of new materials. Withoutthe tags, you wouldn’t be assured that your soft SealyPosturepedic is new.

So stop spreading rumors about mattresses. Telleveryone you know that you won’t stand for this pillowtalk any longer, and then people like me will get agood night’s sleep.

I worked hard for that mixed-up pun, and it stillsucked. Thank God, I’ve only got one more columnleft.

Q: Do you think I’m fat? Do you? Why are youlooking at me like that?

— Adam Corpulando

A: Me? I wasn’t looking at you. I swear. There’snothing wrong with you. You’re perfect in every way,my dear Adam.

Your non-defined arms are scrumptious and youralmost-visible pectoral muscles are divine. You are notfat.

And if you were overweight, that wouldn’t be any-thing to be ashamed about. Your readers would stilllove you. They would gobble up your terrible jokes justthe same. Right, readers?

(Note: As the weeks have gone by, Adam hasfocused more on himself than on readers’ questions.Adam is not sure how this has happened, but he regretsit. He only knows that he enjoys writing “Adam” asmany times as possible.

Unless readers supply questions, the final installmentof Ask Adam will include the line “Adam likes Adam”written over and over. Then Adam will drift slowly intoa sleepy state of ecstasy, loving himself and his beauti-ful, beautiful name.)

Every week the editorial staff of the Kaimin gives a cut-to-the-chase summary of some of the week’s news events, and our opin-ion on them.

Tax time: Feelings of relief and/or profound spirituality.For those of you who made the tax day deadline: Congrats,

you may now measure yourselves as responsible adults. To thoseof you non-tax-paying deadbeats: Discounted routes of escapefrom this country and the financial cavity search that are sure toensue will be available. Don’t you wish you’d been responsiblenow?!

ASUM online voting: Sobs of denial.Nooooo!!! This is unprecedented! Every forty-five minutes the

student voting process is delayed forty-five minutes, we areforced into another forty-five minutes of pure fascism! SinceCyberbear seems to go down with all the regularity of...well,never mind. It is not always the steadfast, reliable service wewish it to be. But the voting system itself was straightforwardenough to garner a thumbs up.

New academic perspectives: Nooooo!Please, please don’t make graduation requirements any more

confusing. Five perspectives with multiple subsections plus anon-western and an upper division writing course taken afteryou take the upper-division writing assessment exam and afteryou’ve taken the lower-division writing exam along with a mathcourse and a ...... AHHHHHH! Head is approaching detonation!Leave us be! We not smart!

Bike thieves: They wants it!The Peanut Gallery has personal experience with this. Three

years ago a nice GT Timberline mountain bike was stolen fromus. It was our precious. Those filthy thieveses stole her! Cleverthieveses. They stole it from us. But when we find them we willtake them to her. Yes, her.

But seriously, stealing bikes isn’t cool. Seriously.

UM ranked as best value school: Ummm...NO! It is a devastating experience when things you felt were real

and true turn out to be lies. Whatever happened to you, emotion-ally or physically, at the end of the day, you knew that yes, UMis ripping you off. Then the Princeton Review decides to go andpublish a book saying that UM is a good value.

Flint, Price overspending: Cha-ching!If Bush can buy an election, why can’t they? College is meant

to prepare us for the future, they’re just ahead of the game.

KALISPELL (AP) — TwoFlathead Valley men face federaldrug charges after one of the menallegedly tried to bring a half-tonshipment of potent marijuana intothe state from Alberta, Canada,Flathead County officials saidThursday.

Sheriff Jim Dupont estimatedthe street value of the B.C. bud at

$6 million to $8 million.“I don’t know where it was

headed to in the end,” Dupontsaid. “But it certainly wasn’t allfor here. There was just too muchof it.”

Shannon Farmer, 31, ofKalispell and Jedediah Atkinson,25, of Columbia Falls werearrested Wednesday. Atkinson

was stopped by a customs agentat the Port of Piegan on theMontana-Alberta border.

The agent became suspicious ofthe trailer Atkinson was towingafter he tapped on different partsof the trailer and it made differentsounds. He also thought the trail-er appeared longer on the outsidethan on the inside, Dupont said. A

tape measure revealed a differ-ence of several feet.

Officers unscrewed metal plat-ing inside the trailer and reported-ly found a compartment with1,074 pounds of marijuana,Dupont said.

The marijuana was seized andAtkinson was released to drivethe empty trailer back to theFlathead Valley, where he said hewas to drop it off for his boss.

Officers staked it out, but noone picked up the trailer, Dupontsaid.

Dupont said Farmer “has beenunder suspicion for dealingdrugs,” because of large cashdeposits he was making at aWhitefish bank.

Officers decided they hadenough suspicion to arrestFarmer. They obtained a search

warrant for his property, wherethey found another trailer identi-cal to the one Atkinson was tow-ing. A drug dog indicated thepresence of drug residue in thesecond trailer, but no drugs werefound on Farmer’s property.

Dupont said the continuinginvestigation will try to determinehow many shipments crossed theborder and whether anyone elsewas involved.

“Right now, we don’t knowmuch about the operation,”Dupont said. “We don’t knowwhere the marijuana was headed.We don’t know where it camefrom. We don’t know where(Farmer) got the millions to buythe stuff in the first place.”

Activist: Home destruction in Gaza Strip should cease

Americanscan help stopthe destructionof Palestinianhomes in Gaza,and until theydo there will beno peace in Israel, said an Israeli-Palestinian peace activistThursday night.

Mary Abu-Saba, co-founder ofRebuilding Homes, an organiza-tion that raises money for andorganizes the rebuilding ofPalestinian homes demolished bythe Israeli government, spoke to asmall but interested crowd atChrist the King Church. The pres-

entation was sponsored by Christthe King Church and theJeannette Rankin Peace Center.

Abu-Saba sought to raise theawareness of peace-mindedMissoulians about what they cando to help the situation in Israel.

“These are simply humanbeings and they deserve a right toa home and they have a right to ahomeland,” Abu-Saba said of thethousands of displacedPalestinians in the Gaza Stripregion.

Since the beginning of Israel’soccupation in 1967, more than10,000 homes have been demol-ished. Most have been demol-ished by Israeli civil authorities,she said.

Abu-Saba said government

officials justify the destruction ofmany Palestinian homes becausethey say the homeowners lackproper permits. The permits, how-ever, are not available toPalestinians.

Rebuilding Homes, which isbased in San Francisco, works incoordination with the IsraeliCommittee Against HomeDemolitions to find the resourcesnecessary to rebuild homes thathave been bulldozed. They alsoengage in legal battles to protectthe rebuilt homes from beingdestroyed again.

During her presentation, Abu-Saba showed a short video docu-menting the efforts made by someactivists, both Israeli andPalestinian, to save one family’s

home. The home was the amassedequivalent of that family’s lifesavings. Protestors chained them-selves to the windows whileIsraeli soldiers and heavy equip-ment moved in. In the end, theprotestors were arrested and thehouse was destroyed, a sight thatmoved many in the audience totears.

After the video, Abu-Sabaspoke candidly about how dona-tions were the most crucial aspectof Rebuilding Homes’ campaign.

“We feel that the United Statesis full of fair-minded people,”Abu-Saba said.

It will be those fair-mindedpeople who can raise money forrelief efforts and lobby electedofficials who have a say in the

American policies concerning theMiddle East, she said.

Abu-Saba will give a lecturecalled “Weaving Social JusticeActivism into the Fabric of Life:A Psychologist’s Loom” Friday at2:30 p.m. in the Liberal ArtsBuilding, Room 138.

Abu-Saba is a psychologist bytrade and will share plenty of per-sonal experiences about her ownactivism. One such experienceoccurred when she was jailed for30 days after protesting for civilrights in the late 1960s in theUnited States. She was also affili-ated with the AmericanCommunist Workers Party in the1970s.

Tool library helps students clean up their yards

Some University of Montanastudents may be surprised thisspring when looking out theirfront-room windows, sipping day-old Folgers coffee and viewing ayard that was glorious last Augustbut now has turned to tatteredbrown shag.

But there is no reason to fear;ASUM has announced it willrepeat its 2003 offer for toolloans for UM and COT student-renter households. The purpose ofthe program is to grant studentsthe necessary tools needed foryard maintenance if they are solacking.

ASUM will once again partnerwith the Missoula UrbanDemonstration Project, whichfirst established a Missoula ToolLibrary in 1997.

“We offer the program to helpoff-campus students remain com-mitted to being good neighbors,”said Judy Spannagel, director ofthe Off-Campus Renter Center.“We are doing it to minimize theimpact of student renters on thecommunity.”

The tool-lease program wasdesigned in response to concernsof Missoula homeowners whofeel some rental households don’tkeep their yards up to decentstandards.

About 48 student householdstook advantage of the offer lastyear, Spannagel said.

For the first 50 student house-holds that explore the land of toolloans, ASUM’s Off-CampusRenter Center will pay $7.50 of

each household’s $10 annualmembership in the library.

“It’s a good idea because Iknow I would be pissed if myneighbor had a trashy yard,” saidsophomore Adam Kirkorian. “Alot of college kids are lazy andthat’s how the yards get like thatto begin with.”

Once a student householdbecomes a member of the toollibrary, a galaxy of hand tools isat its control. These tools includeaxes, picks, hoes, saws, pushmowers and rakes.

Power tools can also beobtained for an additional $10 feeand include a gas-powered mowerand mulcher, weed wackers andbrush cutters. An eight-horsepow-er chipper/shredder and rototillerare also available.

“I think it’s a great idea for stu-dents,” said Aaron Koepke, areadirector of Intervarsity ChristianFellowship. “I watched some-one’s yard go down in one year.The owner had the yard polished,and some student tenants had par-ties with hundreds of people.That, with their parking on thelawn, they wore the lawn down tothe rocks.”

UM junior Erin Satterlee agreesthat it’s a good idea to have thetool library available to students.

“It can be hard to get a hold oflawn care stuff,” she said. “Idon’t have to usually do muchyard work, but I know the equip-ment is expensive.”

To join the program, studentscan visit the Renter Center orstop by the ASUM front desk inthe University Center. Students

will be given a tool libraryvoucher, which can be presentedat the MUD office, located at 629Phillips St. on Missoula’s NorthSide. Next, new members mustgo to the MUD office and pay$2.50 for their tool library mem-bership.

All members can borrow toolsfor auto and bicycle repair, homemaintenance and other varioushome improvement and repairneeds.

The tool library is open fromnow through Halloween onMondays and Wednesdays from4:00 to 6:30 p.m. and Saturdaysfrom 9:00 a.m. to noon. TheMUD Project phone number is549-6790.

CHICA-GO (AP) -Striving fora healthierimage inthe age ofobesity, McDonald’s is rolling outnew Happy Meals specially foradults with salad, bottled waterand pedometers — and comingsoon for the kids, fresh fruitinstead of fries.

Now it’s up to the patrons ofBig Macs and fries to decide howbig an appetite they have for a

healthier McDonald’s, whichunveiled its latest low-fat offer-ings Thursday as part of a newmarketing blitz.

“If I want to eat healthy, I’ll eatat home,” said 33-year-old ChuckHorton as he lunched at a crowd-ed McDonald’s in Garrisonville,Va.

“I come to McDonald’s for onereason: the fries. ... I think thishealthy eating thing has gone toofar,” he said.

Horton and other fast-foodlovers need not panic. The restau-rant giant isn’t changing therecipe for its burgers and fries —the financial meat-and-potatoes of

its $6 billion-a-year U.S. opera-tion — or dropping its triple-thickshakes.

A target of obesity lawsuits anda magnet for criticism that fastfood is bad for you, McDonald’sCorp. is simply trying to meethealth issues head-on and showthat it, like many of its customers,has become more diet-conscious.Top executives announced thenew campaign in Washington,where U.S. Health and HumanServices Secretary TommyThompson applauded McDonald’sfor promoting balanced eatingand exercise.

The new “Go Active!” adultHappy Meals will be available inall 13,600 U.S. McDonald’s onMay 6, accompanied bybrochures offering some gentleexercise advice: Walk more.Other changes will soon follow.

“We want to help adultsachieve the right balance betweentheir daily calorie intake andphysical activity, and to help chil-dren adopt active, balancedlifestyle habits early on,” saidMike Roberts, president ofMcDonald’s U.S. business.

Food-industry experts creditMcDonald’s with taking steps inthe right direction, but voicedsome skepticism about its newpro-health stance.

Bob Goldin, an analyst for the

restaurant consulting firmTechnomic Inc. in Chicago, calledit ironic that the world’s leadingpurveyor of fast food, “which hasa lot of calories, fat, sodium, youname it,” is trying to portrayitself differently.

“Their menu has inched towardhealthier, it certainly hasn’tleapfrogged,” he said.

The introduction of adultHappy Meals is just one in aseries of related moves byMcDonald’s, which introducedwhite-meat chicken nuggets latelast year and is phasing out super-sizing.

As part of the campaign, thecompany said that in June it willroll out healthier choices in itsHappy Meals for kids nationwide,such as the option to substituteapple slices and juice for friesand soft drink.

It also will distribute brochurestelling customers how to modifytheir McDonald’s orders for lowerfat, calories and carbohydrates,such as by skipping the cheese orbun. The promotion has beenemployed at its New York-regionrestaurants since January.

Also new: lowfat salad dress-ing, a fourth variety of salad, andproviding nutrition informationon Happy Meal packages startingin test markets.

Obesity and diet concerns have

been forcing sweeping changes inthe U.S. food and restaurantindustries. McDonald’s intro-duced entree salads in the UnitedStates about a year ago, helpinglead to a surge in long-laggingU.S. sales, and has been movingto add some healthier options toits restaurants worldwide, includ-ing salads in Europe this spring.Fitness whiz Bob Greene hassigned on to help the companypromote walking.

Its competitors, too, have beenresponding to changing consumerconcerns. Wendy’s added entreesalads well before McDonald’s,and Burger King started promot-ing bunless burgers in January,following the lead of smallerchains, Hardee’s and Carl’s Jr.

Blaming McDonald’s forAmericans’ rising obesity andphysical inactivity is “not reflec-tive of reality,” Roberts said in aninterview.

“But it’s part of what we’redealing with as a country rightnow, and we’ve got to lead” byproviding lots of choices and edu-cating consumers about them, hesaid.

Back at the GarrisonvilleGolden Arches, Dave Cabott wasenjoying his Big ‘N’ Tasty andfries.

The menu additions are a goodidea, said the Port Charlotte, Fla.,ex-caterer. But McDonald’s isabout convenience, not healthyfood, he said.

“People are not expecting tohave a gourmet meal here,” saidCabott. “I always eat the crap.”

As their bank accounts arequickly drying up, someUniversity of Montana studentsare feeling the stress of findingsummertime work.

“I need a job badly for thesummer,” UM student RossMittelman said as he wanderedthrough the second annualStudent Spring Job Fair in the UCBallroom Thursday. “It would benice to enjoy Missoula withoutschool hanging over my head.”

The job fair offered studentsopportunities for summer workand part-time work during theschool year in Montana. Morethan 600 students attended.

UM students filed around the48 tables of representatives fromMissoula and campus businesses.

Career Services hosts a job fairevery semester as a part of itsgoal to educate students about thework force.

“We help students to go outand find a career to help pay forthe college education theyworked so hard for,” said ValerieMarsh, the Career Services stu-dent employment coordinator.

The average student debt in theMontana University System is$17,000, according to a studycompleted by MSU in 2000.Statistics from the U.S.Department of Labor show theaverage per-capita income inMissoula is $17,166.

“It looks good on a resume towork during your undergraduateyears,” Marsh said. “It is aresume builder.”

In February 2004, Missoula’sunemployment rate was 4.2 per-cent. Statewide, the unemploy-ment rate was 4 percent. The jobfair is a good opportunity for stu-dents to learn about job opportu-nities, Marsh said.

“This is an extremely importantavenue for students to see who ishiring,” she said.

Campus Recreation representa-tives were present, talking with

students about the plethora ofopportunities that are available.Campus Recreation employs over150 students during the schoolyear, from weight-room employ-ees to lifeguards to climbing wallmonitors.

“We are here to have a pres-ence and get a good pool ofapplicants for student part-timestaff,” said Brain Fruit, assistantdirector of facilities for CampusRecreation. “It is a one-stopshopping for students.”

The Huckleberry People, aMissoula manufacturer of jams,jellies, syrups and candies, hiredsix people on the spot.

“The student population is afocused, hardworking pool ofapplicants,” said RustyRichardson, Huckleberry’s direc-tor of sales and marketing. “Thejob fair provides a quality sum-mer work force for seasonal busi-nesses in Montana.”

Tonya Robinson, from TheBuckle Clothing, Inc, saw anopportunity to get students expo-sure

“Most students come with theintent of finding a job and wehave to find people who want ajob,” Robinson said.

Mittelman perused the tablescollecting applications and freeitems. “They have great pens,” hesaid.

LONDON (AP) - Key Europeannations, including Iraq war oppo-nents Germany and France, vigor-ously rejected a truce offer purport-edly from Osama bin Laden onThursday, saying there could be nonegotiating with his al-Qaida terror-ist network.

Many saw the audiotaped offer asan attempt to drive a wedgebetween the United States and itsEuropean allies, and one analystsaid it might contain a message tomilitants to hold back on attacksagainst Europe.

The tape, which the CIA said islikely to be an authentic recordingof bin Laden, was broadcast onArab TV stations offering “a truce... to any country which does notcarry out an onslaught againstMuslims or interfere in theiraffairs.”

In Italy, a nation shocked by thekilling of an Italian civilian cap-tured by militants in Iraq, ForeignMinister Franco Frattini said it was“unthinkable that we may open anegotiation with bin Laden, every-body understands this.”

French President Jacques Chirac,one of the firmest opponents of theIraq war, was equally blunt: “No

dealings are possible with terror-ists.”

Secretary of State Colin Powelltold Polish television that “this is atime for all of us to be ever moreresolute and say to Osama binLaden, ‘No, we will not listen toany of these demands. You are theone who is wrong. You are the onewho must be brought to justice’.”

The tape — broadcast on thepan-Arab television stations Al-Jazeera and Al-Arabiya — is thefirst attributed to bin Laden sinceJanuary.

“I am offering a truce toEuropean countries,” the speaker onthe tape said. “Its core is our com-mitment to cease operations againstany country which does not carryout an onslaught against Muslims orinterfere in their affairs.”

The message said “the door to atruce is open for three months,” butthe time frame could be extended.“The truce will begin when the lastsoldier leaves our countries,” thespeaker said without elaborating.

The CIA said the tape was likelyan authentic recording of binLaden, who is believed to be hidingin the mountains along thePakistan-Afghanistan border.

Charles Heyman, an analyst atJane’s Defense Weekly, said thetape was “a not very subtle attemptto break whatever coalition there isand to destabilize the situation inIraq.”

Several European governmentsstrongly opposed to the Iraq warquickly rejected the offer. Chirac,speaking in Algeria, said terrorism“is a barbarous act that attacks

innocent people.”“One cannot lean on religion or

any other motivation to perpetrateterrorist acts,” said Chirac, whosecountry has troops in Afghanistanbut not in Iraq. “No discussion withterrorism.”

The speaker on the tape appealedto European public opinion, sayingthe truce offer was “a reconciliationinitiative in response to the recentpositive developments that haveappeared” — an apparent referenceto the defeat of Spain’s pro-wargovernment after the March 11bombings that killed 191 people inMadrid.

But Spain’s incoming Socialistgovernment — which promised topull all 1,300 Spanish troops out ofIraq — also denounced the tapedmessage.

“What we want is peace, democ-racy and freedom,” said incomingForeign Minister Miguel AngelMoratinos.

Analysts said the tape was anattempt to encourage Europeans topressure their governments to stopsupporting U.S. military operationsin Muslim nations.

It also could be a message to al-Qaida sympathizers to stopEuropean operations, to avoid gal-vanizing support for PresidentBush’s war on terrorism, saidMontasser el-Zayat, an Egyptianlawyer who defends Islamic radi-cals.

“Bin Laden is seeing how thosebombings (in Madrid) were used bythe Americans to pressure Europeinto more action,” he said. “Thistape is a message to those groups to

cease these actions.”The tape moderated bin Laden’s

usual rhetoric, avoiding referencesto Europeans as “the Crusader-Jewish alliance” and referringinstead to “our neighbors north ofthe Mediterranean.”

The speaker described the Sept.11, 2001, attacks on the UnitedStates and the March 11 bombingsin Madrid as revenge strikes,although he did not directly claimal-Qaida was responsible.

The voice on the tape said that“what happened on Sept. 11 andMarch 11 was your goods deliveredback to you.”

A truce, the message said, woulddeny “the warmongers” furtheropportunities. Polls have shown, thetaped message said, that “most ofthe European peoples want recon-ciliation” with the Islamic world.

Germany, which opposed the warbut is now helping train Iraqipolice, rejected the truce offer.

“Any attempt to split Europe willfail,” said German ChancellorGerhard Schroeder.

Britain, which supported the warand has 8,700 troops in Iraq, reject-ed the notion it would remove itssoldiers in return for immunity fromattack.

“One has to treat such claims,such proposals, by al-Qaida withthe contempt they deserve,” saidForeign Secretary Jack Straw.

“I’m afraid that it is yet anotherbarefaced attempt to divide theinternational community,” he added.

Some Europeans said theybelieved the threat of terrorism wasaffected by a government’s foreignpolicy.

“I feel safer here than in GreatBritain,” said Oscar Wiladt, 24, aSwedish tourist in Paris. “Franceand Germany did not support Bushin the war.”

And Enrico Carnir, a 38-year-oldarchitect in Rome, said: “The EUshould distance itself from Bush.The only way to resolve interna-tional controversies is the U.N.”

WASHINGTON (AP) - The CIAwarned as early as 1995 thatIslamic extremists were likely toattack U.S. aviation, Washingtonlandmarks or Wall Street and by1997 had identified Osama binLaden as an emerging threat onU.S. soil, a senior intelligence offi-cial said Thursday.

The official took the rare step ofdisclosing information in the close-ly held National IntelligenceEstimate for those two years tocounter criticisms in a staff reportreleased Wednesday by the inde-pendent commission examiningpre-Sept. 11 intelligence failures.

That staff report accused the CIAof failing to recognize al-Qaida asa formal terrorist organization until1999 and mostly regarding binLaden as a financier instead of aterrorist leader during much of the

1990s.But the U.S. intelligence official,

who spoke only on condition ofanonymity, said the 1997 NationalIntelligence Estimate produced bythe CIA mentioned bin Laden byname as an emerging terroristthreat on its first page. TheNational Intelligence Estimate isdistributed to the president and sen-ior executive branch and congres-sional intelligence officials.

The 1997 assessment, whichremains classified, “identified bin

Laden and his followers and threatsthey were making and said it mightportend attacks inside the UnitedStates,” the official said.

Philip Zelikow, executive direc-tor of the Sept. 11 commission,confirmed the 1997 warning aboutbin Laden but said it was only twosentences long and lacked anystrategic analysis on how toaddress the threat. “We were wellaware of the information and thestaff stands by exactly what itsays,” he said.

Horoscopesfor the ignorant

People often take walks innature to escape the hustle andbustle of life, and one Universityof Montana professor has cap-tured the solitude of nature onfilm.

Assistant photojournalism pro-fessor Teresa Tamura’s exhibi-tion, titled “Shashin,” is on dis-play at the Gallery Saintongethis month. The majority of herexhibit features ethereal photosof Japanese gardens in Japan,Canada, California, Washington,Hawaii and Idaho, as well asNew Mexico.

“I believe it is relaxing to bein those kind of environments,”she said.

The photos were takenbetween 1993 and 2003. Tamuraworked as a photojournalist forseveral different newspapersduring that 10-year period. Shealso said that she had no idea thepictures she was taking would

one day become a part of aphoto exhibit.

Her initial interest in shootingthis subject matter came aboutduring her last trip to Japan.

“(I) wanted to do somethingdifferent from what I was doingfor work,” she said.

John Calsbeek, director ofGallery Saintonge, said thegallery tries to show a diversearray of photography and thatTamura is good at the style ofphotography she shoots. She isalso a local photographer and thegallery wanted to give her someexposure, he said.

“It’s a good, solid body ofwork, a good series,” Calsbeeksaid.

Calsbeek also said he thinksthe show is about the formalbeauty found in Tamura’s work.He thinks the content of the pic-tures is interesting and that it’ssubject matter Missoulians mightnot normally get to see, he said.

Tamura used a Nikon FM-2camera to shoot the pictures with

black-and-white, infrared film.She needed to use a red filterover her lens and carried a blackchanging bag with her to changethe film without exposing it tolight, Tamura said.

The infrared film is what givesher pictures a dreamy or etherealquality, Calsbeek said. He saidhe thinks the way she shoots thepictures fits well with the sub-ject matter. He also said the factthat the pictures are shot withinfrared film makes them standout from other exhibits thegallery has featured.

“I guess I was trying to pleasemyself,” she said about the pho-tos.

She took many of the pictureswhile walking in areas nearplaces that she lived and visitedwhile on vacation, among otherlocations, she said.

“I think there’s a lot of west-ern imagery that people seehere,” she said in reference tothe cultural importance of theexhibit. “In Seattle you feel an

Asian influence, (that) influenceis sort of transplanted (into theexhibit).”

Tamura will also have anexhibit in the upcoming monthsin Idaho about the MinidokaRelocation Center. The centerwas an internment camp forJapanese-Americans duringWorld War II, she said. She saidshe has been photographing thecamp itself, the people involvedand the objects found in the cen-ter.

Teresa Tamura’s exhibit“Shashin” is on display untilApril 27 at Gallery Saintonge,located at 216 N. Higgins Ave.

Tamura will give a free lectureon Friday, April 16 at 7 p.m. forthose who want to learn moreabout “Shashin” and her upcom-ing exhibit in Idaho.

Gallery Saintonge is openTuesday through Friday from 10a.m. to 5:30 p.m. and onSaturdays from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.

In hip-hop, boasting is the default setting,and emcees have spent entire careers carefullycataloguing the contents of their beds, closetsand garages. Self-deprecation is a trickiermode: tweaked the wrong way, all those self-inflicted punch lines appear neurotic or desper-ate to earn a laugh.

L.A.-based Murs finds the careful balancebetween battle rapping and story raps thatdownplay his own prowess, at one pointlamenting that he’s “more Coldplay than Ice-T.” But he never leaves out the humor.

His last album for Definitive Jux pushed the70-minute mark and employed a small army ofproducers and guests. For “3:16: The 9thEdition,” Murs settled with a single collabora-tor. In a concise 35 minutes, Murs and produc-er 9th Wonder make the most of brevity andsimplicity. Murs favors the old-school story-

telling formula — think Snoop Dogg’s “LodiDodi” — and 9th Wonder leaves open spacesin his beats, but heavily samples and speeds upsoul samples to make the singers unrecogniz-able.

To show the difference between Murs’ unas-suming humor and those of most rappers, com-pare his rewrite of Jay-Z’s “Girls, Girls, Girls,”with the original. Where the great retired oneraps about having a girl of every race in nearlyevery place, on “Freak These Tales,” Mursjokes about what a bad lay he was: “Next cou-ple times weren’t quite that memorable/Tamica, Clidia, must’ve thought I was pitiful/Bustin’ after two minutes/ I thought that shitwas typical/ That’s probably why they nevergot back at a nigga so...” However, Murs isstill an L.A. rapper with some roots in gangsta,so the track record of his bed only gets dirtieras the song goes on.

When he does brag, it’s always tempered bydoses of reality. He twists the formula of the

hustling-as-a-kid rap by listing the ways hemade bank without dealing drugs. Not manyemcees would say they bought incense andsix-packs and resold them with as much prideas Murs does on “H-U-S-T-L-E.” But as hesays, he’s got “no glorious tales/ But it didkeep my black ass from going to jail.”

Consciously or not, Jay-Z and Nas broughtback the idea of a short, strong hip-hop albumwith a minimum of guests and a consistentproduction sound. Murs and 9th Wonder pardown the excess even further, leaving the lis-tener with an album closer in length to a tele-vision show than to a movie. A few years ago,there wouldn’t be good odds for a rapper likeMurs to make it on the charts, but if KanyeWest can go to the top with a concept albumabout dropping out of college, Murs should beable to get a hit with a song that expands thedefinition of hustling to include flipping six-packs for a dollar a beer.

The buzz about Quentin Tarantino’s secondinstallment in his Kill Bill series, “Kill BillVolume II,” has been rising to a fever pitch sinceVolume I hit theaters last fall.

The second film, which features UmaThurman’s character, the Bride, in her continuedhunt to find and kill her ex-employer, aptlynamed Bill.

Volume II, which hits theaters today, has beenpraised by critics for its surprising but satisfyingconclusion to the story.

Critic John Anderson of Newsday wrote thatVolume II intensifies the virtues of the first filmand proves Tarantino to be as good a director as

he is purported to be.Increasing the buzz around the new film is the

release of “Kill Bill Volume I” on home video andDVD the week before Volume II goes to theaters.

An employee at Crazy Mike’s Video on EastBroadway said that since the Tuesday release,“Kill Bill Volume I” has been rented as soon asit’s put on the shelves.

Critics across the board have noted the unex-pected emotional depth that almost threatens tosupersede the violence in the sequel.

A manager at the Carmike 10 cinema inMissoula said that “a lot of people were askingabout it today (Thursday).” He added that peoplewhere trying to buy tickets early.

The film opens Friday and the Carmike 10manager said he fully expects it to sell out.

Whether you are an agingmember of the crusty world ofacademia or a third graderscrawling fart jokes on the bath-room stall, Steve Martin’s“Picasso at the Lapin Agile” willwin your heart.

Albert Einstein and PabloPicasso cross paths in a ParisianBar circa 1904 to iron out thefiner points of the universe, paint-ing and women. They have thesediscussions while trying not to beoverly distracted by the otherpatrons who occasionally offer,“But I am French,” as an excuse.

The University of MontanaDrama/Dance departmentshowed itself to be a well of tal-ent, most noticeably withMichael Kane, who playedEinstein, and Seth A. McGhee asPicasso.

Kane, who has a freakishlyclose resemblance to the genius,never waivers from the youngeccentric Steve Martin portrayshim as.

Likewise, McGhee hasPicasso’s cocky swagger pinneddown to the point where theaudience must begin to wonder

how long he will walk aroundlike that after the play is over.

Martin writes the play in amanner not altogether differentfrom his own performances,alternately brilliant and manic.

Einstein’s theory of relativityis loosely explained and Picassosermonizes the feeling he getswhen his brush reaches out topaint the future until the onlylogical thing left to happen is thetoken penis joke.

Every time the plot threatensto overwhelm the audience withthe colossal ideas of these twen-tieth century titans, a weak-blad-dered frenchman, played to per-fection by Howard Kingston,runs off the stage to relieve him-self of the wine he can’t seem tostop consuming.

Not to be forgotten is the self-promoting character of CharlesDabernow Schmendiman. Thishistorical nobody who hasinvented an “inflexible and brit-tle building material” for theearthquake-prone markets of theworld has no pretensions aboutusing complicated wordplay orchronological juxtaposition toget the audience to crack up.Slapstick antics are all he reach-es for, but these are achieved

with impeccable comic timing.The end of the play keeps the

audience guessing and, in somecases, scratching their heads. Itis where the writing achievesboth its zenith and its rock bot-tom.

A singer from a time yet tocome appears out of the muchvisited lavatory unannounced,somehow bringing the conclu-sion together and making it total-ly ridiculous simultaneously.

Martin’s jokes range frompoking fun at Picasso’s preoccu-pation with blue to the predictionthat the French will become amajor military power in the cen-tury to come. He also predictsthe road to peace will be pavedby Germany.

The esoteric and the plain sillycome together in a truly funny80 minutes of fantastic actingand even better writing.

The play, like Einstein’s char-acter said of his theory of rela-tivity, is “final, not subject toopinion, depending on whereyou’re standing.”

“Picasso at the Lapin Agile”runs through Saturday, April 17in the Montana Theatre at 7:30p.m. Tickets are $12 for studentsand $15 for the public.

NEW YORK (AP) - Kwame wasfired. Bill is hired.

“The Apprentice” came to itsmuch-anticipated climax Thursdaywhen Donald Trump chose BillRancic, the street-smart 32-year-oldInternet entrepreneur from Chicago,to be his apprentice for the next year.

“Kwame, I think you have anamazing future,” said Trump. “You’rea brilliant guy, great education, and Ihave no doubt you’re going to be abig success. But right now, Bill,you’re hired.”

Rancic edged out fellow finalistKwame Jackson, the laid-back 29-year-old New Yorker and HarvardMBA, for the Trump-described“dream job of a lifetime” and its$250,000 salary.

The decision closed out a two-hourshowdown for the hit NBC realitycompetition. Billionaire developerTrump, the host, put 16 would-beapprentices through numerous businesstasks then, in the boardroom, “fired”someone at the end of each episode.

For his final assignment, Bill wasput in charge of a Trump golf tourna-ment, while Kwame handled anappearance by pop star JessicaSimpson at one of Trump’s AtlanticCity casino hotels.

Each “boss” was teamed with three“employees”: previously fired“Apprentice” candidates who, possi-bly still nursing grudges, sometimesseemed as much a hindrance as ahelp.

Thanks to Bill’s team, a vital spon-sor’s sign went missing.

Thanks to Omarosa on Kwame’steam, Jessica Simpson went missing.Then disappeared again, while Trumptapped his foot.

When was an apprentice evermade the president of a companyright away? And how can 15 peoplebe fired when they were never hiredin the first place? Those are questionsthat may never be answered.

But the boardroom summits withTrump, where he pronounced “you’refired” amid even more exchangedglances than you’d find in the squadroom of “NYPD Blue,” helped make“The Apprentice” a sensation since itsJanuary premiere.

Created by Mark Burnett, whobrought “Survivor” to the airwaves,“The Apprentice” trades on a similarsurvival-of-the-fittest strategy.

“It’s not a game,” Trump declares.“It’s a 13-week job interview.”

Viewers have flocked for thebravura display of competitive greedand backstabbing. Another draw, per-haps: the eight female contestants

were attractive and tended to wearshort skirts.

“The Apprentice” has launchedTrump into stratospheric new heightsof renown. Not only has he dined outon the catch phrase “you’re fired”(and threatened to copyright it), hescored deals for a Trump-brand creditcard and as a celebrity spokesman fora telecommunications company.

Two weeks ago he was guest hoston “Saturday Night Live” and hasagreed to come back for a new edi-tion of “The Apprentice” next season,reportedly at a substantial pay raise.

Meanwhile, the show has had sev-eral breakout characters, chief amongthem Omarosa Manigault-Stallworth,who’s beautiful, scheming and can-tankerous. Her feigned martyrdomfrom falling plaster on one episodeearned her the ultimate pop-culturesalute: She was spoofed on “SaturdayNight Live.”

Suspected hanky-panky betweentwo other rivals, Nick Warnock andAmy Henry, has also added to thefun.

Whatever the reasons, “TheApprentice” has been a huge hit, lastweek ranking second in viewers, with22 million even edging out CBS’“Survivor: All-Stars.” It ranks seventhfor the season to date, according toNielsen.

Trump chooses his ‘Apprentice’

14 Friday, April 16, 2004 Montana KaiminSPORTS

The University ofMontana tennis teamswill try to get back onthe right foot this week-end as they square offin some crucial matches.

The men’s team will face conferencerivals Sacramento State on Saturday.

The Griz enter the Saturday match-up with a 6-9 record that includes a 1-4record against Big Sky Conferenceopponents, leaving them tied for 5thplace with Weber State in the confer-ence. UM is coming off a decent week-end during which it lost a 4-3 decisionto Idaho State and bested the Wildcats5-2.

“We lost 4-3 and that’s the 2ndstraight conference game we’ve lost 4-3 (UM lost 4-3 to Northern Arizona onApril 3) and I think it’s about time wewon one like that,” said UM junior JanSteenekamp. “Hopefully everybody ismotivated and ready to play.”

Montana has had constant troublethis season winning doubles matchesand stressed that area during practicethis week.

“We are (confident in our doublesteams),” sophomore Varun Giri said.“The last few matches we have gottenpretty close. We’ve been losing thosecrucial points so that’s what we’vebeen practicing the last few days.”

The Hornets are 10-8 on the seasonand hold a 2-1 record in Big SkyConference play. They are also comingoff a dominating 6-1 victory overEastern Washington last week.

Sacramento State is led by strong playfrom its lower-end players, such as jun-ior Peter Farkas and freshmen WarwickFoy and Roman Perez. Warwick andPerez have compiled a 28-22 recordplaying in the No. 4 through No. 6 sin-gles positions. The Hornets have alsohad some trouble finding consistency atthe No. 1 position, but junior MattJones seems to have temporarily com-pleted the job, compiling a 3-2 recordat the spot.

UM will once again be without theservices of Stan Nevolovich, who isstill nursing a knee injury. UM headcoach Brian Hanford hopes the juniorwill return in time to compete in theconference tournament at the end of themonth.

The UM women’s team faces perhapsa more strenuous battle this weekendthan the men’s team. The 1-11 LadyGriz will open up competition againstGonzaga at 2 p.m. today. After theGonzaga match-up, UM will take onthe tough Lady Hornets of SacramentoState.

Sacramento State is currently ranked28th nationally in the InternationalTennis Association and boasts a 17-3record. The Hornets are riding a 12-match winning streak, which includes a6-1 thrashing over 10th-ranked FresnoState last week. Also, they have not lostsince their Feb. 12 game against theUniversity of Washington.

Sacramento State has been led byvery strong individual play. The worstindividual record on their roster is thatof Marta Gronowicz, who comes toMissoula with a 9-9 record. The LadyHornets are led by their No. 1 and 2

players Margarita Karnaukhova (who iscurrently ranked 78th in the nation andthe current conference player of theweek) and Anna Erickson. They have acombined 32-4 record so far this sea-son.

Despite the fact that they will beplaying a team as hot as SacramentoState, the Lady Griz are ready to rolland are not feeling the least bit intimi-dated.

“It’s definitely not intimidating to usas a team,” said UM junior BonnyBower. “We want to win a match andwe are going to do everything we canto get that done. We’re as good asevery team out there so we are going todo our best to win.”

Hanford believes that if UM playswell against Gonzaga and the weatheris Montana-friendly, the Lady Griz willhave a very good shot against theirSoCal opponents.

“They are the best team we will seeall year, so I am looking forward to thewomen going out and competing,”Hanford said. “Hopefully we can get awin (against Gonzaga) and it will carrysome confidence into that Sac Statematch. Hopefully it’s a little cold andwindy Saturday morning and that willhelp us out.”

UM is led by junior AnnabelleJanairo, who has posted a 3-1 record inconference play.

The ladies will duel SacramentoState at 10 a.m. and the men will fol-low soon after the conclusion of thosematches at 1 p.m. All matches will beplayed at the Robert O. Lindsay TennisComplex on campus.

“Scott will have to get outfast,” said Tom Raunig, headtrack coach. “It should beinteresting.

Ford has been placed in thesecond highest heat of the5,000 meters with 49 competi-tors. Raunig said the race willbe much like a cross-countryrace, which should be to Ford’sadvantage.

“(Ford) likes to get out nearthe front,” Raunig said. “If heruns the way he typically

races, he should be fine.”Brubaker will compete in the

javelin against members of topteams like Pittsburg, Stanfordand Texas A&M, while Gillhopes to better himself againstmany of the athletes he facedduring the NCAA indoorchampionships in the highjump. Gill is currently rankedin a tie for 15th in the nation.

The rest of the track teamwill travel to Bozeman to faceoff with teams from MontanaState as well as St. Mary’s, butthe meet will not be scored andanyone willing to compete willbe allowed.

Raunig said that a number ofmembers who are redshirtingthis year will have a chance torace against collegians.

Also, it will be an opportuni-ty for athletes to qualify forthe conference and regionalcompetitions in May.

“It’s a low-key opportunityto focus on time,” he said.

Twenty-three athletes arequalified for the conferencemeet and five for the regionals.

UM golf heads toconference finals

GREAT FALLS (AP) — Missoula sports agentKen Staninger says between five and eight BigSky Conference football players could be select-ed in next weekend's NFL draft.

Leading the way could be former MSU cornerJoey Thomas, who has spent the week trying toimpress folks with the Pittsburgh Steelers, GreenBay Packers and Dallas Cowboys.

“I hope to be a first-day guy,” said Thomas, a6-foot-2, 188 pounder who has 4.4-second speedin the 40-yard dash. “Wherever I go I’ll makethe best of the situation.”

The first two rounds of the draft are on April24, followed by the third through seventh on the25th.

Staninger's clients include former Montanaoffensive linemen Dylan McFarland, Jon Skinnerand record-setting kicker Chris Snyder.

“I think Dylan definitely has a chance to bedrafted,” Staninger said. “That’s definitely whatwe’re being told. Now, exactly where he mightbe drafted, I don’t know.

“We’ve also heard a lot of good things aboutChris Snyder, but very few kickers are everdrafted. Jon, I think, is a free agent type of guywho we hope to have some options with.”

Staninger said he thinks Northern Arizonareceiver Clarence Moore, Eastern Washingtonoffensive tackle Kurt Sigler, Idaho State defen-sive end Jared Allen and Sacramento State offen-sive tackle Marco Kavka will be drafted.

Staninger says he thinks another handful offormer Big Sky stars will receive free agent con-tracts, including former Montana State defensiveend Adam Cordeiro, offensive tackle BrentSwaggert and return specialist Corey Smith.

Nick Tyree plays tennis withan attitude. This senior in busi-ness finance is originally fromHelena and started playing at thecourts across the street from hishouse with his dad’s racquetballracket. He looks tougher thanyour average tennis player andhas a soft spot in his heart forsome good old AC/DC. Thisweek Thirteen Questions tookthe winner of the Andre Agassilook-alike contest and servedhim some questions.

Kaimin: How fast can you hita tennis ball?

Nick: I don’t know, I’ve neverbeen clocked.

K: Does the ball ever catchon fire when you hit it?

N: All the time. It’s a prettycommon problem of mine.

K: Do you ever try to beanyour opponent?

N: Pretty frequently, actually.I’m not that friendly when I play.

K: Any particular time youcan remember hitting them?

N: No, I just attempt it a lot.K: Do they know you’re aim-

ing at them?N: Yeah, they know it. I’m

usually not the nicest guy toplay, I’ll admit it.

K: So you’re not the old-school tennis player — youknow, with the sweater tiedaround your neck?

N: No, no. I hate that, that’snot me.

K: So when you don’t likethe calls do you pull a JohnMcEnroe and just flip out?

N: We usually don’t have a ref,but my opponent definitely hearsit from me. I’ve been known toopen my mouth a little bit toomuch.

K: What’s harder, table ten-nis or real tennis?

N: Real tennis.K: Have you ever used table

tennis to cross-train in the win-ter?

N: I can’t say that I have. I’venever played table tennis.

K: Do you play any othersports?

N: I used to play baseball.

K: How often have you beenknown to play your tennisracket like an air guitar?

N: Every now and then it’sbeen known to happen at prac-tice. We have some other choicemoves with the racket, but coachgot kind of pissed off about it sowe can’t do it anymore. The “rid-ing it like the bull” seems towork pretty well when you’repissed off.

K: What song is goingthrough your head when you’replaying the air guitar?

N: “Freebird” is always a goodone. A little AC/DC never hurt,either.

K: Can you tell me the pur-pose of the tennis bracelet?

N: I have no idea.K: Do you own one?N: I do not, I don’t know why

they even have the name tennisin it. I’ve never understood that.

K: How do you go about get-ting tennis elbow?

N: Just too much play.K: Why does only tennis

have the elbow? Why can’t theother sports, like football, getit?

N: I think it’s just the torqueon the elbow.

K: Have you ever had tenniselbow?

N: Yeah, I had it this year.

K: What have you been play-ing this year, mostly singles ordoubles?

N: I played some doubles atthe beginning of the year, butmostly singles.

K: Mostly singles?N: I hate doubles, I don’t like

having someone else out there, itbothers me.

K: What would you say yourattitude is when you’re outthere?

N: I try to keep my cool, but Iget pissed off a lot. I’m prettyaggressive.

K: So you don’t mesh withdoubles?

N: Yeah, I just don’t play mybest. That’s why I switched frombaseball. I just don’t like thewhole team thing. I’m not a realteam player.

K: OK, football players getthe endzone dance, basketballplayers get the slam dunk —how do tennis players cele-brate?

N: Talking trash is the bestone.

K: So when you go up to thenet it’s not nice?

N: It’s never nice. There isusually some choice conversa-tions.

K: Is there anything you’vesaid that you’ve had to takeback?

UM to host state’s largest triathlon

The University ofMontana triathlon teamwill host the largesttriathlon competitionin the state onSaturday, and they’replanning one tough swim-bike-and-run.

“It’s pretty tame, actually, as far astriathlon (length) goes,” said JeffCincoski, race director and UM teammember. “The competition is what makesthis one tough.”

About 300 athletes are signed up for theGrizzly Triathlon, and Cincoski said thedirectors have had to turn away entries.Among those competing are professionalracers, some of the state’s best athletesand 16 of UM’s 30 team members. Five ofUM’s men and women have been placedin the top heats, with 14 total competitors.The rest will be spread over 10 heats.

The Grizzly Triathlon is in its 16th yearand, like all triathlons, consists of threeraces in one. First, racers will begin with10,000 yards (or 20 laps) in UM’s Grizpool, after which they will transition to abicycle race. The triathletes will bicycle

across the footbridge and down Broadwayuntil they reach East Missoula beforeturning back for a total of around 20 kilo-meters. Finally, the racers will finish witha short 5-kilometer run along the KimWilliams Trail, which includes a steepquarter-mile hill that can decimate analready-tired racer’s muscles.

“Just finishing is an achievement initself,” Cincoski said.

For the UM triathlon team, however, therace is a precursor to the national compe-tition two weeks later and is a chance toface off with some of the country’s best.

Among those returning to the GrizzlyTriathlon are last year’s winners, MattSeeley and Jenny Nerison.

Seeley, a Polson native, has won themeet four times before and tends to breakaway from the pack during the bicyclingportion of the race. Nerison, who is a UMteam member, likes to build a lead earlyduring the swimming portion and hold outfor the rest of the race.

Cincoski said that Nerison will have tomaintain a fast pace after the swim if shewants to hold off three former NCAAtrack runners who are scheduled to race.

UM triathlon team president, ElliotBassett, said the race will help some of

those on the team overcome beginner’sjitters. And those who are more experi-enced will get a glimpse of where theymight be positioned for the national colle-giate race.

“We’re sending more people than everto nationals,” Bassett said.

Last year, the team sent 11 people andplaced fifth in a group of about 60 teams.This year, UM is sending 16 to the meetin Lake Havasu City, Ariz.

Bassett said the team can expect toplace within the top five again, or evenhigher.

“Both our teams have a talent leveltwice or three times as deep as before,” hesaid.

The winners for the men’s and women’sdivision will receive a large, engravedstone. Bassett said that although competi-tors are basically “running for a rock,” thehonor is highly regarded amongMissoula’s triathletes and everyone’s legswill be burning by the end.

“There comes a point where even dur-ing a short race ... you have so little fuelleft you can’t even think to go fast,”Bassett said.

The University of Montanawomen’s soccer team will begin itsspring season with a scrimmageagainst Lady Griz alumni at the SouthCampus Stadium on Friday night at6:30 p.m.

sidy.He added that one of the reasons

the average expenditure was so lowlast year was because 21 candidateswere running for 20 senate seats, sothere wasn’t much competition.

Still, if Flint spends over the limit,there will be consequences.

“The grounds that he has is very,very weak,” Engelson said. “I’mgoing by what my rules say I have togo by. Maybe those rules are wrong.If a court wants to change that, by allmeans they can.”

Pappas said she’s frustrated becauseshe was elected last year withoutspending much money. She said sheprefers to spend her time talking withstudents about issues to promote hercampaign.

“He’s going to get what’s comingto him,” she says of Flint. “There’s

going to be consequences. He won’tbe on the ballot. That’ll make me feelbetter.”

Flint said he doesn’t blame hisopponents for their frustrations.

“That’s perfectly within their rightto say that, and I have the utmostrespect for every single one of them,”he said.

Switching from president to a sena-tor wouldn’t be a step down, Flintsaid. He added that he wants to beopen to other activities next year, butstill wants to be involved in ASUM sohe can keep an eye on some of thekey issues he’s been working on overthe last year.

If breaking the campaign spendinglimit jeopardizes his campaign, hesaid it’s still worth it to make a stand.

“The core of civil disobedience isthat if you’re going to challengesomething, then you have to suffer theconsequences,” he said. “If it doescome to that, then I have to be pre-pared to suffer the consequences.”

FlintContinued from Page 1

Office said his department’s investi-gation began as soon as the rape wasreported on Saturday, but there werecertain parts of the investigation thatcouldn’t be completed until Monday.

Maricelli said nobody would havebeen available until Monday morn-ing to distribute information and thecomposite sketch wasn’t completeduntil Monday afternoon because thedetective wasn’t available untilMonday.

At Montana State University, inci-dents are reported in the same man-ner, said Capt. Donna Larue of theUniversity Police.

“If there were no report filed, youcan’t do anything about that,” shesaid, but Public Safety officials arerequired to notify students based onthe Jeanne Clery Disclosure andCampus Crime Statistics Act.

The Clery Act is a federal lawbased on the 1965 Higher EducationAct and states that colleges and uni-versities are “required to disclosecertain timely and annual informa-tion about campus crime and securi-ty policies.”

Larue said MSU Public Safety’sjurisdiction is limited to the campusand campus property, but she saidher concern is the students.

Teresa Branch, vice president ofStudent Affairs, said UM did notviolate the Clery Act when it waitedto report the information.

“As much as possible, you identi-fy the suspect,” Branch said. “A partof why you wait for the investigationis so you don’t put out informationthat will damage the investigation.”

During the meeting, Branch —who said she heard of the crime onSunday, March 7 — said she wantsto work toward providing more secu-rity in terms of cameras and lightingfor the campus.

In a later interview, Lemcke saidthat cameras in parking lots andbuildings would be a nice addition,but he said he guesses that it couldcost nearly $500,000 to implement.Still, he said, cameras would nothave helped in this case.

“If a police officer was parkedright next to him it wouldn’t havebeen prevented,” he said, noting thatthere was no physical struggle untilboth the victim and the attacker werein the vehicle.

Lemcke said Thursday’s meetingwas more of a self-assessment.

“Even if we couldn’t have doneanything different, naturally there’sthings we can improve,” he said.

Branch said it was important forevery administrator to be given achance to review the situation.

“It was important for everybody tocome together and figure out that wehad all the information,” she said.“As far as we can tell, we did every-thing we could do.”

the senate is discussing is the forma-tion of a hiring board for the editor’sposition. Right now, the student bodypresident and vice president select theeditor-in-chief.

This discussion has produced posi-tive effects and more are sure to come,

French said.“I really think that a positive solu-

tion is going to come from this andwe’ve all learned valuable lessons,”she said. “It’s unfortunate they had tobe learned this way.”

Adams said he is considering legalaction against ASMSU, although hesaid he could take it further if he hadmore money and willpower.

“According to the lawyers I’vetalked to I could sue the university andthe state of Montana,” he said.

Becker removed Adams from hisposition as opinion editor, butMcCarthy quickly reversed the movebecause he said he had not been con-sulted beforehand. Adams said Beckerdoesn’t want him back and he doesn’twant to return anyway, even though

there has been no official firing. Atsome point he wants to return to thenewspaper, but not to work for Becker.

“I’m not going to go back while(Becker’s) still there,” Adams said.

ASUM president Aaron Flint saidissues like this need to be addressedfor the good of everybody, especiallythe students.

“If there’s a blockade in student

media, there’s really no other way forstudents to know what’s going on intheir government,” he said.

Flint said that as a journalism majorhe understands the severity of theseaccusations.

“The last thing you want is politicalinterference in the news business,” hesaid. “The issue there is journalisticintegrity.”
